The Plow

The package was delivered wrapped in a silk scarf of Xiang Yunsha.

The outside of the silk scarf is painted with golden auspicious clouds, and there is also the scent of sandalwood.

End is exquisite.

Untie the bowknot, and inside the silk scarf is a box.

Gray-black wood, the sawdust is clean, smooth and thorn-free to the touch.

There is a word engraved in the lower right corner of the wooden box surface, and silver is also traced on it.

A what word.

A beauty gives a gift, and the quality is blue.

It's not that Ling Shu has never received gifts, nor has he never received gifts from beauties.

Not to mention, when he was in school, many female classmates left unknown little gifts on his desk every day. Even when he went to the dance hall, Yaqi and others would rather dance with him than ask for his tips.

But Ling Shu suddenly had expectations for what was in the box.

Presumably what He Youan sent must be something unusual.

The box is not locked, there is only one snap button, and the box can be opened by pressing the button.

Inside was a piece of paper sprinkled with gold and red, a pen, and a bottle of unknown liquid that looked like perfume and ink.

The red paper looked like an invitation or a marriage letter, but it was empty and nothing was written on it.

Ling Shu became a little interested.

Based on his guess, He Youan should have given her a gift because he saved her life last time.

Since it is a gift, it is bound to not be so sloppy and perfunctory, even forgetting to write the name.

This might be a gift for a quiz with a prize.

It's like going to the Lantern Market during the New Year and festivals. There are lantern riddles on the bright and colorful lanterns. Only by solving the lantern riddles can the lantern truly belong to you.

Interesting.

"what is this?"

Yue Dingtang pushed the door open and entered, taking advantage of the trend to sweep up the cold air all over his body.

Seeing Ling Shu's surprised face, he said, "I don't have any classes in school today. I'll go and bring back the students' homework for correction. It's warmer here."

I'm afraid they want to spy on him, Ling Shu slandered.

"Miss He was sent by someone, thank you for saving my life last time." He was a little proud, like showing off his candy box in front of a child who couldn't get candy.

Yue Dingtang: "She sent it here, but not the Ling family. It must not be just for you, but for us."

Ling Shu didn't take it seriously: "You are my officer, since you are sending two people off, why did you only send them to me by name?"

Yue Dingtang smiled faintly: "Naturally, it is because you have saved her life. He Youan was born in poverty, and was promoted by Shen Shiqi to become famous in the film industry. As soon as she came out, instead of being underestimated by everyone, she won a lot of sympathy. I heard that after that night, her movie shows were not empty, and there were rich kids who went to give flowers to the show, and there were a lot of big spenders. Movie fans, and even some people want to buy the film company and rescue her from Shen Shiqi. She must be impeccable in her work, and no one will be offended, so how can there be mistakes like you said?"

Ling Shu couldn't help asking: "Someone wanted to buy a film company to promote her, so why didn't she agree?"

Yue Dingtang: "I didn't agree. She said that Shen Qiqi treated her with kindness. Although her temper was a bit impatient, she couldn't be ungrateful just because of the other party's temper. As soon as this word got out, everyone praised her for being kind and caring." Even Mr. Pence from the US Consulate sent an invitation to her, inviting her to attend a banquet and give a singing performance on Washington's birthday next month. I heard that there is a French counselor who is pursuing Miss He recently. .”

His source of news is indeed much more powerful than Lingshu's.

But Ling Shu listened, not only did not feel jealous and depressed, but also admired: "There are a sea of ​​beauties with ostentatious appearances, but there are very few beauties who are both internal and external. Ms. He is indeed the best among them!"

Yue Dingtang felt that he had been poisoned so deeply that even ten horses could not be pulled back. This kind of poison is called You'an Beauty Poison. The mild ones would blush when seeing He Youan. .

According to Yue Dingtang's inference, Ling Shu is showing signs of turning from mild to severe.

He picked up the red paper and looked at it.

"It must be the invisible ink used. It comes out after baking with paper. Nowadays, chemistry courses in universities have such a basic course. They write with cuttlefish juice. After a few days, the characters disappear. Many students play with it." It's a joy to pass each other's little secrets."

When he said this, Ling Shu suddenly lost the little fun of guessing riddles.

Yue Dingtang played with the red paper over and over again.

"I do have an idea."

With a smile on his lips, "Why don't we make a bet, if she really gave this gift to both of us, then I will win, if she only gave it to you, then I will lose, how about it?"

Ling Shu: "What's the bet?"

Yue Dingtang: "Do one thing for the other party. Of course, you can't violate the law or discipline, and you can't violate public order and good customs."

Ling Shu thought about it, and felt that he was not losing money on this deal.

"Okay, then you have to ask for a notarization to count."

Yue Dingtang: "Are you afraid that I will repudiate my debt?"

Ling Shu smiled hypocritically: "After all, you are an officer and I am a subordinate, so what you say will be what you say at that time. How dare I speak up when I am a subordinate?"

Yue Dingtang: "Then, in your opinion, who should you ask for notarization?"

Ling Shu: "You don't want to avoid relatives, so let's take Sister Chunxiao. Although you are brothers and sisters, I believe in her sincerity."

Yue Dingtang: ...I don't believe it, she must be partial to you.

"No. If you are like this, why don't you go to Sister Ling."

Ling Yao went out, and Ling Shu couldn't allow Ling Shu to renege on his debt.

Ling Shu twitched the corner of his mouth: "Then why not find a colleague in your school, a university professor, who is a good example, so you won't be biased."

Yue Dingtang nodded: "It's possible."

In the morning, the two of them did their own things, and the time flew by.

Yue Dingtang corrected the homework at hand, moving quickly.

Ling Shu took a book from the shelf and read it.

Yue Dingtang took a break from his busy schedule and glanced at the title of the book.

"Discussion of Social Issues".

Yo ho, quite deep, impressive.

Yue Dingtang was a little surprised.

After half an hour, he finished grading the homework and raised his head again.

The man had already fallen asleep with his head on a book.

Yue Dingtang: ...

Ling Shu was dreaming that he had a good conversation with the owner of Xiaoji noodle shop, sitting and drinking, Lao Xiao blew on his boundless cow flying all over the sky, Ling Shu took a sip of the soup base in the chicken noodle soup, looked at the old man Xiao talked and laughed happily as always, and there was still a little bit of the beauty of the quiet years in his heart, and he couldn't help but hear a buzzing in his ears.

Waking up from the sweet dream, remembering that Lao Xiao had been dead for many days, it turned into a terrifying nightmare in an instant.

Yue Dingtang saw his expression change: "Wake up, your saliva is dripping out."

Ling Shu subconsciously wiped his mouth.

"Where is the saliva?"

Yue Dingtang was expressionless.

Ling Shu felt that he was in the wrong, and closed the book with a dry laugh.

"Are you finished? Go to lunch?"

Yue Dingtang glanced at the number of pages, it was a thin book, only a few pages had just been turned.

Okay, retract the foreword.

"Go out and eat."

He picked up his scarf coat and walked in front.

The sun outside was just at the place where the clothes were hung just now, and the ironing of the coats of the two of them was warm and comfortable, as if they were covered with a layer of sunshine.

Ling Shu felt relieved inexplicably.

"What to eat?"

"What do you want to eat?" Yue Dingtang said nothing.

"Chicken noodle soup?"

"Ah."

"Forget it, I just had a dream about chicken noodle soup, or eat beef noodles!"

"..."

……

After lunch, the two went to school.

Ling Shu found that Yue Dingtang was quite popular, and many students greeted him along the way.

Especially female students.

The slogan of democracy and science has just risen these days. Although some families will send girls to school, after all, the closed ones account for the majority. The female students who can appear in universities, the elders in the family are either enlightened gentry, the government works, or Those who returned from studying abroad, but no matter what kind, the family must have a small permanent property, at least a well-off and wealthy family, in order to afford the tuition fees of their children, so college girls are also rare, and in society, all of them are geniuses. The proud daughter.

A professor who can be so welcomed by the proud girl of heaven is naturally extraordinary.

Only today is slightly different.

The admiring eyes that fell on Yue Dingtang on weekdays were much diluted.

Ling Shu, who was behind Yue Dingtang, came from behind and came out on top.

A few bold female students, besides saying hello, also took the initiative to ask Yue Dingtang.

"Mr. Yue, is this your friend?"

Yue Dingtang really wanted to say, don't be fooled by his appearance, this man can even turn over three pages of "Discussion on Social Issues" before falling asleep.

"Well, he's my assistant, his name is Ling Shu."

The female student's eyes lit up: "Then you are also a teacher in the school?"

Yue Dingtang: "It's my assistant in the position of consultant of the Municipal Bureau, not teaching in this school."

The female student was not disappointed, instead she stretched out her hand generously to Ling Shu: "Hi, my name is Xiao Yue, Xiao Se, the moon of the new moon."

This introduction made Ling Shu immediately think of the Crescent Cafe, but Xiao Yue's appearance has nothing to do with the cafe, but looks like the moonlight described by a poet, graceful, noble and poetic.

"Hi, my name is Ling Shu."

The movement of the female student's short hair was like her gaze rippling.

"Ning of tranquility? Books of books?"

Ling Shu was amused by her accent: "It was Ling Han who drove it alone, the shuffle of the Privy Council."

The female student rarely blushed: "Okay, thank you, Ling Shu, I remember, are you free to come to our school to attend a class next time? You are a policeman, right? Our school has a history of the legal system, so you just come to listen to it."

Ling Shu smiled and said, "Isn't the gentleman who teaches you the history of the legal system right by my side? Shouldn't you invite me to attend another class?"

The female student wanted to say something, but her companion was already very embarrassed and dragged her away.

Ling Shu sighed: "It's great to be a student, with the sound of reading books and full of vigor."

Yue Dingtang: ...Is it really nice to chat with female students?

Although he knew that Lingshu had a lot of peach blossoms, he still underestimated it a bit. He never thought that he would delay for a while on the way from the campus to the office.

Fortunately, it was convenient to find someone in the office. Professor Zhao, who teaches Chinese, happened to be free. Hearing their intentions, he laughed and readily agreed to be the witness. He also volunteered, found two candles, and put red paper on the fire.

After baking for a while, a few lines of words gradually appeared on the paper.

Thanks to Mr. Ling and Mr. Yue,

Grateful for taking care of, very excited, self-respect, several days, I don't know if the two are free tonight, Baofenglou Yingzhang Pavilion, I look forward to your visit, please do me a favor, let the little girl be the host.

And, knowing that Mr. likes to guess riddles, the little invitation card has made some tricks that are not on the table, and I have the right to add fun to Mr. If there is any offense, please forgive me.

Sincerely, He Youan

It turned out to be a treat.

Ling Shu was a little disappointed and a little annoyed.

Sure enough, He Youan mentioned Yue Dingtang's name.

This ingenious paper sprinkled with gold and red is just a post to treat guests.

"Why, Miss He didn't give it to you alone, I'm quite disappointed?"

Yue Dingtang was in a good mood.

"Don't forget the bet, Old Zhao, you are watching."

Professor Zhao laughed and said, "I testify that Mr. Ling lost a game!"

Contrary to Yue Dingtang, Ling Shu's mood was as if he had just been lying down for 3 minutes, but was picked up by someone who told him to work all night, and suddenly fainted.

What kind of beauty's treat, immediately couldn't interest him at all.

But he and Yue Dingtang didn't know that He Youan was in a bad mood at the moment.

And some anxiety, and fear.
