ordinary human life

"Sihai, do you like girls very much?" Liu Wanzhao asked suddenly.

"why would you say so?"

"I need to tell you this? Isn't it obvious at a glance?"

"No, I like both boys and girls."

"I don't believe it, you said that we will have a boy or a girl in the future?" Liu Wanzhao asked shyly.

"Girls."

"Hmph, you still said you don't like girls?"

"sleep……"

……

"Ding ding dong, ding ding dong..."

He Sihai suddenly heard the sound of pearls on a jade plate.

It took a while to realize that it was the sound of a pipa.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself standing on the bank of the Qinhuai River.

However, the Qinhuai River at this time is completely different from the one seen during the day.

The entire river is at least 50 meters wide, which is what the Qinhuai River looks like in history.

Looking up at the sky, there is a full moon in the sky, shining on both sides of the river.

The lights on the other side were brightly lit, and there were people in the shadows, but there was no sound coming, as if watching a silent mime.

And He Sihai was alone on this side of the shore.

On the long bluestone street, there are few people, and the lights are dark.

At this moment, He Sihai heard the sound of a pipa again.

He Sihai followed the voice and looked forward.

I saw an attic in front of me, and there were two red lanterns hanging in front of the door, which were particularly eye-catching, and the sound came from the attic.

He Sihai stepped forward.

At this moment, a small song came to the ears, the sound was like a lark.

The sound of the big strings is late and the small strings are rushing, and the ten-year-old girl plays woodpeckers.

Pecking wood does not peck new branches, but pecking teeth and dead tree belly.

The flowers are blooming to block out the sun and lock the empty garden, and the old trees are towering and deep in the valley.

No woodpeckers are seen, but woodpeckers are heard.

……

He Sihai paused for a while, then took another step towards Qusheng.

When he got to the attic, He Sihai could already see the figure upstairs without going upstairs, because the attic was open.

It was a woman wearing a water-green robe, with a clouded bun, a gorgeous face, and a cunning look in her eyes.

Seeing He Sihai coming downstairs, she put down the pipa in her hand, and said softly, "Mr. please go upstairs to explain."

When she stood up, He Sihai realized that the other party was petite and exquisite, at most 1.5 meters tall.

"Dare to ask who is the girl?"

"Little girl Wu Xiang, I have met Mr. Yingying."

"Wu Xiang?" He Sihai thought for a while, but he had never heard of this name.

After thinking about it, he stepped into the building.

The whole building is made of wood. There is a screen facing the gate, and behind the screen is the hall, with a grand master's chair on the left and right.

There is a portrait of a woman hanging in the middle, and the woman in the portrait is Wu Xiang in the attic.

On the left is a wing, and on the right is a staircase, leading to the second floor.

He Sihai thought for a while, then stepped upstairs.

Wu Xiang was already standing at the stairs to welcome him. When he saw He Sihai coming, he first gave him a Wanfu salute, which made He Sihai very uncomfortable. He is not familiar with these etiquettes...

"Please forgive me for disturbing my lord," she said.

Then he stretched out his hand and let He Sihai walk in.

He Sihai looked around and found that the second floor was furnished like a tea house, with transparent sides, tables and chairs, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, musical instruments, and wind stoves...

What a quiet and elegant place.

If you take it out and sell it, you should be able to sell it for a lot of money. They are all antiques.

Chapter 553

When I saw the woman from downstairs just now, I thought she was short.

Looking closer now, she feels even shorter, but her skin is as jade-like and can be broken by blows. She is simply a pocket beauty, a legitimate loli.

"Sir, please sit down." Wu Xiang led He Sihai to the teahouse.

"I haven't visited here for a long time. It's just some old tea. Don't mind Mr. Wanwang."

Wu Xiang's voice is soft and waxy, very nice, and has a different flavor from the voice she sang just now.

"You don't need to drink tea, the girl has something to talk about." He Sihai took the opportunity to sit down and said.

"Girl?" Wu Xiang covered the corners of her mouth with a chuckle when she heard the words, which could be described as charming.

It is said that a woman is as gentle as water, and it is probably used to describe a woman like her, with every frown, smile, and every move, she gives people a gentleness like a spring breeze.

"I've been married for many years, but I can't be called a girl."

As he spoke, he pointed to the bun on his head.

"I was reckless." To be honest, he really didn't know much about these ancient etiquettes and customs.

"Then I'll call you Mrs. Wu." He Sihai said.

In fact, this name is still wrong, but Wu Xiang didn't correct it.

"I invite you to come first, because I want my husband to do me a favor and fulfill my wish."

He Sihai nodded. This was originally his duty, so naturally he was bound to do so.

"Today during the day, is the lady playing the zither?" He Sihai asked suddenly.

Wu Xiang nodded when she heard the words, without denying it.

"There are so many people in the daytime that it is inconvenient, so I can only attract Mr. at night."

"It is said that after death, although a person can stay in the human world, the time cannot be long, because if he is forgotten by others, he will eventually disappear into the human world as a wisp of smoke and dust. I think Madam should stay in the human world for a long time, right?"

Wu Xiang nodded again when she heard the words, "Fortunate to have a poor reputation, I don't know whether it is luck or misfortune."

After Wu Xiang finished speaking, she sighed softly, and a trace of sadness crept up between her brows, which made people feel pity.

"Madam Wu hasn't said what your wish is yet?" He Sihai asked directly.

"Wait a minute, sir."

Wu Xiang said, got up and walked to the side, holding a small wooden box, and walked over with some difficulty.

The wooden box is very delicate, with gemstones of various colors inlaid on all sides. He Sihai suddenly thought, maybe this is what the treasure chest was called in ancient times?

"I originally had a pearl hairpin, which was my favorite, but unfortunately lost it accidentally, so I hope that my husband can help me make a tour." Wu Xiang pointed to her hair bun again and said.

Her bun was empty, without any embellishments.

"And this is the reward for my husband." She said, opening the treasure chest in her hand.

He Sihai was stunned, because the treasure chest was full of pearls, agates, and gems of various colors.

Opal, luminous pearl, everything that one expects to find.

"With such a generous reward, it's hard to imagine how precious Mrs. Wu's lost pearl hairpin is." He Sihai said in surprise.

Wu Xiang gently closed the treasure box, shook her head and said, "It's just an ordinary pearl hairpin."

"However, it was a gift from my husband-in-law as a token of love, so the meaning is different." She added.

He Sihai frowned when he heard the words. This wish seemed simple, but in fact it was not easy to get. After all, so much time had passed.

Has the lost pearl hairpin been smelted?It's hard to say whether there is decay or not.

And this thing has no name or surname, how do you know it is Wu Xiang's pearl hairpin?

"I also know that time has passed so long, I'm afraid there is little hope, but I just do my best to obey the destiny." Wu Xiang said, showing a weak and helpless look.

But He Sihai seemed to turn a blind eye and didn't show much compassion.

Wu Xiang took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and spread it out on the tea table.

"This is my lost pearl hairpin." Wu Xiang said.

He Sihai looked carefully, and it turned out to be a crested hairpin.

"The phoenix hairpin is made of gold, the phoenix eyes are adorned with red agate, and the phoenix beak is pendant with gold beads..."

Is this an ordinary pearl hairpin?These people are really annoying.

However, this wish is not easy to fulfill.

"May I ask, do you still remember where you lost it?" He Sihai asked.

"In Guide Mansion, my husband's hometown." Wu Xiang said.

"Since you know, why don't you go find it yourself." He Sihai asked doubtfully.

Wu Xiang sighed deeply after hearing the words, "I can't leave here anymore."

He Sihai was a little silent when he heard the words. At this time, he had already guessed Wu Xiang's identity.

Another person who is believed, no, to be precise, trapped by cognition, people in reality think she should be here, so she can only be here, this Qinhuai River is equivalent to a cage for her , Trapped her deeply here, unable to get out of this range.

"Okay, I accept your wish, but I don't know how long it will take for you to find it..." He Sihai said with a deep look at her.

When Wu Xiang heard the words, she first showed joy, and then her face turned pale. Just as she was about to say more, she heard a voice calling for her father on the street.

He Sihai's heart moved, and he hurried to the window to look out.

And Wu Xiang was even more surprised, and also walked over.

At this time, I saw a small man standing on the empty and quiet street in the distance.

She looked around curiously and called her father softly.

This little person is Tao Zi, He Sihai just opened his mouth to call her.

Suddenly the bright moon in the sky turned into an irregular sun like a fried egg.

The previously closed shops on both sides of the street opened up one after another.

Shopkeepers have set up stalls and started selling all kinds of food and gadgets.

"Little Taozi, do you want to try our mutton skewers?"

"Little Taozi, would you like to try our candied haws?"

"Peach, Tao Zi, come and eat fried chicken wings."

"Taozi, this big balloon is for you."

……

There was a lot of noise for a while, and the entire interface came alive.

He Sihai observed these passers-by carefully and found Liu Zhongmou and his wife, grandma, Liu Wanzhao, Zhang Haitao and his wife, He Qiu and He Long...

These are all Taozi knows in reality.

In addition, there are some more bizarre characters, such as Bald Qiang, Xiong Daxiong II, Dora, Pigman, Pig Page and other fictional characters.

Some are even made up of strangely shaped bubbles or cubes.
