I'm really immortal
Chapter 1068 Blood of the Phoenix
The dead branches creaked in the wind and rain, and fell into the lake in pieces. Feeling that the chill did not leave because of the hustle and bustle of the Nanmei Garden, Liu Changan carried Su Mei into the yard.
After walking around the covered bridges and trails, we arrived at a loft that stretched into the lake. A bonfire was lit on the terrace facing the water outside the building, burning brightly. It was not affected by the slanting wind and drizzle at all, and the heat was transferred to the loft. Scattered out in all directions.
Opposite the attic is a stage built for the fireworks tonight. A small mountain of various fireworks is hidden under the waterproof tarpaulin, waiting for the rain to lighten up to bloom.
The attic window grilles were bright, and through the transparent glass, Liu Changan saw Qin Peng talking to Ye Sijin, and his expression seemed a little excited.
"That place... was burned, killed, and plundered by the Japanese before, and then the land was stripped again. When we went there..."
"When the fellow saw us, he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy... He brought a pot of leaves, broken rice stalks and bran mixed together. He trembled and said, Master, there is really nothing at home..."
"We quickly took dry food and distributed it to the fellow villagers there... Only then did they finally believe that we were different..."
As he spoke, Qin Peng slammed the table hard, "I swear, we must let our people, when they see our army, not tremble and kneel down to beg for mercy, but smile with joy and treat them as family members!"
"You have made too many vows, and this must be fulfilled." Ye Sijin patted her cousin on the shoulder and sighed slightly. There were too many things to do and changes to make, so she could only try to figure them out slowly.
"Except for not becoming a train driver, which of my vows have not been fulfilled?" After saying that, Qin Peng nodded arrogantly, "I have been a railway worker, so... I can be considered to be related to a train driver."
Ye Sijin smiled and remembered what happened when she was a child. Her brother ordered a train from Europe and put it on the railway between Lin'an and Shanghai. It was convenient for Ye Sijin, who didn't like taking long-distance buses, to go on vacation. Qin Peng saw the train. He liked trains so much that he vowed to be a train driver when he grew up and drive this train around. His brother also asked him to lay railroad tracks all over the country.
Thinking about it now, what my brother said at that time planted a seed in Qin Peng's heart, and the look on Su Mei's face at that time also planted a seed in the heart of the young Ye Sijin... After all, the aunt and sister are sworn in.
So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. The carefree childhood was a time of innocence and ignorance that makes people miss it.
"Let's partner up tonight. It's best to let my sister-in-law lose and go bankrupt. What's the use of so much money? If the fireworks don't go off at night, I'll use them to buy guns and cannons to equip at least one regiment." Qin Peng said in a low voice, thinking about it when he was a child The woman who was called "Meijieer" and now "sister-in-law" is still a little timid.
"My brother is in charge, and now she is doing serious business, saving the country through industry, and raising funds for the rear. If you make her lose everything, you are killing the goose to obtain the egg." Ye Sijin also couldn't stand Su Mei's extravagant life style, but thinking about her family's past , thinking about his brother, there was no way he could say what he said to accuse Su Mei.
"I'm just talking. I haven't played cards for a long time. I'll try my luck with a few games later. If my sister-in-law doesn't give in, I'll have to ask my brother for help in the end." Qin Peng felt confident after saying that, even though his eldest brother had taken over the property. The management has been handed over to Su Mei, but who hasn’t spent some private money yet? Every time Qin Peng went to beg for help, he would always dig a little here and pull a little there to get it for Qin Peng.
Qin Peng's biggest wish is to wait for the country to usher in peace, then take a train with his eldest brother and travel across this great country. He wants to be a train driver for his eldest brother.
"Playing cards always requires people to let go, what's the point?" Su Mei walked in and heard Qin Peng's last words, smiling, "Every time Ziqing suddenly comes to play with me, I get a headache and don't send him away. No, he won’t leave, just let him go and he’ll come back for more next time.”
Qin Penghan laughed twice and felt a little hot, but when he thought about the career he wanted to do and what he was doing... his personal face didn't matter. He was already used to being laughed at by her.
"Sister Mei, it's wrong for you to say that." Ye Sijin also smiled, "Brother, originally a share of the family property was left for Ziqing... At most, it was a shareholder who came to get dividends, how can you say it was just a waste? If you think If it’s not appropriate, calculate the shares again and clear out my and Ziqing’s shares. If you have the strength to buy back, we will have nothing to say.”
"Haha...Jin'er is really becoming more and more eloquent. Are you kidding me? If the family talks about returning the purchase, doesn't that mean they have to separate? It's too emotional." Su Mei paused for a moment, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, "But Jin'er has also reached the age of talking about marriage. This share was originally meant to be used as a dowry. I don't know which boy it will be cheaper for. Maybe the emperor marrying his daughter is not as good as Master Ye marrying his sister."
"If the country is like this, why should we call it home? The champion Hou of two thousand years ago had already explained this clearly." Ye Sijin said lightly, and it was difficult to hold back the frustration in her heart.
This Su Mei is a wealthy lady from the old era who was poisoned by feudal ideas. The implication behind her words is that she is throwing water on her married daughter, implying that Ye Sijin will marry out sooner or later to take advantage of outsiders. She, Su Mei, is the one who married with her family property. The family members who came in.
"Jin'er is a person who understands things and does big things. It seems that I have to accept the baptism of advanced ideas and keep pace with the times. Otherwise, I don't understand what you are saying. I only know how to worry about family affairs and...he Things need to be done in a pattern without a pattern, and in a vision without a vision." Su Mei also sighed softly, looking at "him" with some self-pity.
"Thank you, Sister Mei, for the compliment. What big things can I do? I haven't done anything. Instead, I've been busy and delayed my family affairs. Look, I haven't had time to accompany my brother during this period. Fortunately, Sister Mei, you can come here. In the future When I have free time, I naturally want to make up for my brother... How about traveling around the country by train with Ziqing?" After saying that, Ye Sijin turned her head, with warmth and attachment in her brows.
Qin Peng waved his hands repeatedly. He already felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and pursed his lips calmly. If a word was leaked, it would be his own misfortune in the end, whichever party he offended.
Su Mei felt even tighter in her chest. This Ye Sijin, it is not unfair at all to say that she is sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued. This level of yin and yang is at least sixty-seven percent of what his brother was capable of when he was not a human being.
"Fortunately, sister Mei, you can come here", it seems that because she, Ye Sijin, is not with him, Su Mei can take advantage of it. When she comes back in the future, nothing will happen to Su Mei!
Is this what a sister-in-law and sister-in-law say? In comparison, Qin Peng, who can be bribed with money, is pleasing to the eye.
Those who want money are really easy to get rid of. This Ye Sijin doesn’t want money, but she wants people!
"Look at you, you guys start fighting as soon as we meet, you're so skinny." Liu Changan took advantage of his height and stretched out his hand to take the three people in front of him into his arms.
Qin Peng was also tall, and he quickly bowed his head, so that his elder brother could gently pat the back of his head with his palm.
Liu Changan tilted his cheek slightly and rubbed the top of Ye Sijin's head. The girl in front of him was not Qin Yanan, but the little girl who liked to eat bird's nest porridge with his brother in many of his dreams.
It's just... this is still a dream.
"Snapped!"
There was a sound of fireworks exploding outside the window, followed by dazzling lights and shadows blooming in the rainy night, and high and low voices rising and falling from far and near.
In every household around Nanmei Garden, some people walked into their own yards, while others just opened the doors and windows, looked up at the air-conditioning, and gradually became lost in thought. They put their hands in their pockets and stared at the "thousands of flowers blossoming on the east wind night" in front of them. Stars fall like rain in all kinds of clear, turbid, and old eyes.
The fireworks would go off for a while, and Qin Peng opened the window of the terrace facing the water, making the beautiful scenery even more shocking. The people's shouts made the scene more real, but Qin Peng, who had seen too many scenes of people living in dire straits, was in a daze.
It's just that he is a determined person. He quickly got rid of the unnecessary emotional influence and felt that his heart was bleeding. If these fireworks were exchanged for arms...
"Brother, when we were young, we would set off fireworks and watch them every year." Ye Sijin leaned in her brother's arms, her bright eyes blurred by the color of the fireworks and lake scenery.
Liu Changan did not speak, but hugged her harder. The scene at this moment was so dreamy, and she in his arms was so real.
It made him think in a daze that he was still Ye Chenyu, and the scene in front of him was his current experience, but the memories of Liu Jianshe and Liu Changan were a little distant, as if they were drifting and hidden deep in his memory.
This feeling made him wake up. The thought just now was probably the so-called "inner demon"? In Xianxia novels, we see strong people who encounter the temper of their inner demons when they ascend. They often sink into a certain memory or period of time in the past, and are ultimately unable to extricate themselves and fail to ascend.
If Liu Changan had an ordinary person's mind, he would probably easily fall into this kind of dream where he could not distinguish between illusion and reality, and he would eventually be played by Shangguan Dandan. And that Long, who had always wanted to usurp the throne, probably She would give him, who had finally turned into a walking zombie due to the sinking of his character, to her stepmothers to play with in exchange for supporting her in ascending to the position of sect leader.
Thinking about these messy things, Liu Changan became extremely sober. When he looked down at Ye Sijin in his arms, the sense of reality had dissipated a lot. He couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart. He didn't want to sink, but he still lingered on the illusory satisfaction. Human beings He was always so confused and confused, and so was he.
After watching the fireworks for a while, Qin Peng came back to study the mahjong tiles without much interest, preparing to win money from his sister-in-law later.
Su Mei seemed to have something to do, she glanced at Liu Chang'an tenderly, and then left in the direction of the covered bridge leading to the outside of Nanmei Garden.
Liu Changan was heartbroken. He had not forgotten his main task tonight. After tying Ye Sijin's shawl, he flashed and followed Su Mei from a distance.
"My blood is Phoenix blood, can it make the potion take effect?"
Su Mei came to a monastery outside Nanmei Garden. After chatting with a nun for a few words, she suddenly let out a low voice in surprise.
