embroidery

Here Qingmo chatted happily with Mr. Guo in the private school, while Tao Cheng met Lu Jixiao there.

Lu Jixiao almost laughed angrily. He sat cross-legged under the tree trunk, looking exactly the same as when he saw Qiao Qing lost his mind that day, but Second Grandma Qiao, who was supposed to be here today, didn't show up. He only saw Tao Cheng walking towards him with indifferent eyes.

"Is it too late for me to run now?" Lu Jixiao stood up lazily, regretting that he was doing other human work these days, and didn't pay much attention to the situation here. Could it be that the one who was thrown to work as a prostitute? Soon to be fed fish?But regardless of whether he was dead or not, the look in Master Tao's eyes meant that he would pay for his life and not run away.

Tao Cheng stood still a few steps away from him, "Since we know it's too late, why don't we just grab him with nothing."

"Is it easy to coax me when I'm your little dog?" After Lu Jixiao sneered, he stopped talking nonsense. One moment he was still shrugging, and the next moment he threw two sharp darts through the air. He raised his long sword and approached quickly, "Ding---", the weapons collided with a crisp sound. Lu Jixiao used a short knife, which was not half as long as Tao Cheng's sword. If he wanted to threaten Tao Cheng, he had to get close.

Just right, it was exactly what Tao Cheng wanted, and the strength of the two was equal. After a moment of stalemate, Lu Jixiao bent his legs and attacked the lower body. The sharp cold brushed against the tip of the nose, and the chest was immediately scratched, and the skirt of the clothes was cut, revealing a long blood-stained chest.

Lu Jixiao didn't care much, and stepped back dozens of steps in a vain attempt to distance himself. Unfortunately, Tao Cheng pursued him so hard that he couldn't even find a gap to fight back. Lu Jixiao said angrily, "Your mother bought it, you got angry at her!" Send it, seek revenge on me, don't you know some rules!"

Tao Cheng raised his other hand to his ear when he was barking like a dog, his knuckles were clenched, and the two were still chasing. Lu Jixiao could only see the movement of his hand, but he couldn't see any weapon that was about to be released at all. Feeling flustered, he immediately turned his head to expose his back to Tao Cheng, and ran away with all his might, not wanting to fight.

It seemed that there was a very slender sound of a long needle piercing through the air. Tao Cheng concentrated his attention on it, and his eyes followed the faint sound piercing through his clothes and piercing into his flesh. Zhang Yuan, he didn't stop in embarrassment until he knocked his head under the tree trunk.

It was like the rustling sound of embroidery needles piercing the cloth, pulling the embroidery thread through the cloth, it was too faint to reach the ears, but it could kill someone, Tao Cheng approached the immobile body step by step. Thinking of this when my prodigal dog.

Lu Jixiao's eyes widened. After eating his mouth full of dirt, he still wanted to scold. It was extremely unpleasant. Tao Cheng squatted down on one leg and looked at him with dark eyes, "Who is more like a dog?" After speaking, he moved his wrist, He took out three more long needles from nowhere, and recalled the acupuncture points that Dr. Cheng taught him. Each needle penetrated into the skin and flesh, and the sound of barking disappeared immediately.

Tao Che was so anxious that there was almost no place for sores in his mouth. He threw the shackles violently. He stopped when he ran into the woods. Opposite him, Tao Cheng came striding forward with the prisoner on his back. , Yuebai's clothes were stained with a few blood stains, but she was still extremely aura and personable.

The carriage was heading towards the yamen, and Tao Che outside the carriage asked, "Brother, watch out, be careful that he wakes up again."

In the car, Tao Cheng replied, "He's not dizzy, he's awake. I learned two tricks from Dr. Cheng, but now he just can't move, talk, see, or hear."

Tao Che said in a hoarse voice for a while, "Brother, I want to learn too."

Tao Cheng smiled, "Okay, I'll teach you later."

Before entering the yamen, the carriage stopped deep in the alley, and the two brothers hid in the carriage. Tao Cheng pointed out the acupuncture points to Tao Che to memorize, and then pulled out two, "Go out, be careful not to stain your clothes."

Tao Che didn't care much, "If it gets dirty, just get it dirty, and when I think about it---this is the blood that my brother splashed on me when he killed the aftermath, and I can still think about it."

Tao Cheng was ruthless, "Get out."

There was no room for maneuver. Before Tao Che lifted the curtain and got out of the car, he saw Lu Jixiao's terrified eyes. He stood outside the car and listened to Tao Cheng say, "In the octagonal pavilion, you looked at him twice more. Don't blame me for taking your life." Waste your eyes."

There was only the sound of blood flowing from the sword, and Tao Cheng didn't keep Tao Che waiting for a long time. After lifting the curtain, he threw the few long needles into the groove on the side. He bent his legs and leaned casually on the car seat, "Let's go, Go get the reward."

Near noon, the two brothers returned to the mansion. It was supposed to be time for dinner, but there was no servant in sight. Tao Che went to the courtyard first, saw his parents were still sitting under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and approached, "Father, mother?"

Qiao Qing's eyes were red, and she asked, "Where is your brother? He came to see him and then left, and he will come back after a while, but when we went to the house to look for him, we only saw a table of hidden weapons, and his sword was gone. Where did it go?"

Master Tao was angry and worried, pacing back and forth, "I haven't seen how troublesome I am before, so hold my breath together and give me a big blow."

Tao Che sat across from Qiao Qing and poured himself a cup of tea, "He's changing clothes in the bedroom, and he'll be here soon."

"What the hell are you doing!" Master Tao blew his beard angrily, "What the hell!"

Tao Che pondered, then suddenly smiled, "Go and eliminate harm for the people."

He tilted his head up and drank a cup of tea. From the corner of his eye, he saw Tao Cheng walking with a sword and a bundle. He felt that the sweetness and bitterness of the tea soaked through the ulcer, and his heart felt tight because of the stinging pain.

Qiao Qing was too haggard, and her makeup couldn't cover her exhaustion. She watched Tao Cheng put a paper portrait on the stone table, but Master Tao picked it up before she could see it clearly, "What is this!"

"It's Lu Jixiao's reward order." Tao Cheng said calmly, "It took a little effort to throw it to the Yamen. In the future, I will be reborn as a ghost and I will be a blind ghost, so I won't be able to find me."

Master Tao was extremely shocked, while Qiao Qing felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her teeth chattering from trembling, she muttered something, but Tao Cheng didn't hear clearly and didn't follow up, she just said, "From now on, I will travel with Qingmo, I don't want to be disturbed by those sneaky people, I hope my parents will forgive me."

Kneeling and kowtowing has already been done, and there is nothing to miss, Tao Cheng turned to look at Tao Che, and smiled, "In the future, when you meet your sweetheart and want to start a family, I will come back again."

Tao Che got up and hooked his shoulders, and walked towards the gate of the house with two pairs of frightened and angry eyes. Tao Che said with a smile, "Then I come back every year, and you have to come back every year."

"Nonsense." Tao Cheng bent his elbow and bumped his chest, "The Tao Mansion will rely on you in the future, so please don't let me hear bad news about being down and out."

Suddenly there was a loud noise and a cry from behind, Master Tao lifted the stone table, and he shouted, "You son of a bitch! Stop!"

No one responded, Tao Che tightened his grip on his brother's shoulders, "It's really embarrassing for you to be a brother who is chic outside, but a younger brother who is struggling at home."

Tao Cheng just smiled, and the two walked outside the mansion, Tao Che pushed his brother, "You go, I will make money at home for you, and the money shop takes money from stamps, don't be shy."

Tao Cheng turned around and hugged him, before Master Tao chased after him angrily, he drove away without looking back.

After lunch, Mr. Guo wanted to rest. He snored as soon as he lay down on the soft bed. Qingmo stood by. As a pillow, I lay down on the table and missed Tao Cheng.

If you didn't rush back to have lunch together, you should have been yelled at a restaurant for a treat, would you be drunk?What can I do when I'm drunk, how can I take care of him with my half disabled hands?If he got drunk and messed up without any control, wouldn't it be a big shame to turn over the carriage?

Qingmo was amused by herself, and remembered that she didn't take a carriage today, but rode a horse in Tao Cheng's arms, so...the horse can't be used, right?

Qingmo whimpered, buried her face, and looked shameless, her head was full of some nasty dirty thoughts.

Just when he was about to fall asleep with the sound of snoring in a daze, he felt a familiar warmth on his side, Qingmo's lazy eyes didn't open, he just pouted his lips begging for a kiss, and then his lips were stained a little. warm.

Doing this kind of thing in Mr. Guo's private school, Qingmo's heart was beating wildly and his face was flushed. He was picked up by the waist, and when he was in the air, he opened his eyes and asked in a breathy voice, "Are you drunk?"

Tao Cheng smiled and replied softly, "Have you heard and seen?"

Qing Mo buried her head into his neckline, her whole body froze immediately, no longer looking lazy, he raised his face and stared at Tao Cheng with wide eyes, almost lost his voice, "You!!"

Tao Cheng secretly made a mistake, he turned around and sat down by the small flower bed in the courtyard, coaxing, "Don't be angry."

Qing Mo was as angry as a headless fly, "Where is the smell of blood coming from? Didn't you go to eat and drink? You even changed your clothes, where did you change them? Did you go back to Tao's mansion? Was beaten by Master Tao?"

Suddenly, remembering that Tao Cheng said that he wanted to go back to beg for a beating, Qingmo raised his hand and grabbed his skirt and pulled it aside, "Let me see, what kind of beating it must be! How much blood has been spilled, why even the clothes have to be covered?" Change?"

Tao Cheng couldn't get into his repeated questions, so he simply lowered his head and pressed his lips together, then pushed his hands away, "Be careful of your hands hurting."

Qing Mo Bu Yi, "You can't be coaxed, unless you tell the truth, are you lying to me?"

I didn't feel guilty for hiding it for several days before, but now I don't know how to admit it. Tao Cheng pursed his lips and prepared to speak. Qing Mo couldn't wait, "Are you thinking about how to continue lying to me? Mr. Guo is here, you Are you not afraid that I will sue you? You are still lying in front of the teacher, are you not afraid of the ruler thug?"

Tao Cheng was really overwhelmed, "Your mouth...you are so powerful, huh?"

Qingmo was still about to be fierce, but was interrupted by a light cough, the two hurriedly silenced their voices and looked at them, seeing Mr. Guo standing under a tree with his hands in his hands and squinting at them, neither of them dared to do it again, Qingmo still nestled In Tao Cheng's arms, the shy faces could fry eggs, and the two hurriedly stood up, trying to run away in embarrassment.

Mr. Guo came over, "I don't know the rules, is this a place for you to mess around?"

The two obediently shook their heads to admit their mistake, Tao Cheng stretched out his hand, "Sir, I'm in charge, and I'll take Qing Mo's share for him."

Mr. Guo raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Class is about to start, if you want to stay, please be quiet, otherwise I will really have to take a ruler."

"I won't stay anymore, he still has to go back to drink his medicine." Tao Cheng said, "I'm sorry to bother you today, I'll send you a letter later."

Qingmo nodded in agreement, "One letter and two books, I will also write to you."

After bidding farewell to Mr. Guo, the two steered their horses slowly towards the brothel courtyard.

Qingmo's face can only be thicker in front of Tao Cheng, and the scalding temperature can't go down for a long time, he has no temper to force a confession, "You promised me that you won't go back and ask for a beating, and your bookkeeping will be void."

With his chin resting on the top of his head, Tao Cheng confessed, "I didn't break my promise, I did go back to the Tao Mansion, but my father didn't beat me up."

"Where did that blood come from? Isn't it yours?"

"No."

I deliberately found a quiet path with few people for a walk, Tao Cheng explained everything in detail, and then took the bag and handed it to Qing Mo to hold, and unknotted the knot, "Didn't you always ask me where I hid all your embroidery Is it? It's hidden in the bedside cabinet."

Inside the baggage were familiar embroidery paintings, Qingmo was speechless for a long time, as if he had heard a story that only existed in a storybook, he had mixed feelings, and smiled gently, "The embroidered...the embroidered is so ugly , tie it up quickly."

Tao Cheng lowered his head and kissed his face, tied the bundle again, and held Qingmo in his arms, thinking of his lonely and tormented past, every needle he stabbed was like a bleeding bead piercing his heart, but when he recalled it, it was so far away And, only the warm and reliable embrace at the moment is real.

Qing Mo murmured, "Are you hungry?"

Tao Cheng said "hmm", "There are some, how about you?"

"I'm hungry too. Mr. Guo found me a spoon, but I can't use it well. The handle of the spoon hurts a bit when I poke it in my palm."

"What do you want to eat? When you go back, your husband will serve you."

Back in the waterside small courtyard, Du Liu cheerfully came to announce the good news. He waited for Liang Zhi to get off work last night, and the two went shopping together on the long street.

Du Liudao, "Thanks to the young master, we communicate a letter every day. If we can't finish talking, my handwriting will become more readable."

Qingmo was sincerely happy for him, and chose a picture of magpies fighting from the pile of embroidery and gave it to him, "If the cultivation comes true, we will come back to eat your wedding wine."

The smiling face turned into a mournful face and then into a smiling face, if Tao Cheng wasn't there, Du Liu really wanted to jump up and hug Qingmo, he finished his embroidery and went on, so as not to disturb the fairy couple in his heart.

The pumpkin lump soup was served, and the two of them ate slowly with a pair of bowls and chopsticks. Qingmo ran back into the room while Tao Cheng was washing, and came out again after a while, with a red candle between his wrists and a red candle in his mouth. holding a pair of scissors.

Tao Cheng saw it and hurriedly took over, but also reluctant to really attack him, Qing Mo asked, "Do you know what I'm going to do?"

With a heartbeat, Tao Cheng realized, "Cut off a strand of hair and hide it in the peach pit."

That's what he said when he first put on the small peach pit, and it has been dragged on until now, Qingmo sat on the recliner and urged him, "There is no room for a strand in the small basket, so cut a few hair ends and rub them in."

Tao Cheng's heart softened, as if every word Qingmo said was soaked in syrup, and the sweetness could be eaten from his ears. He half-kneeled on the grass, and ran down a strand of Qingmo's hair with his fingertips, "Tie the hair couple."

Qingmo was a little shy, "Yes, married couples." After a pause, he continued, "So you can no longer be in danger. In case of misfortune, how do you want me to live alone? I will turn into a ghost and I will not let you go."

So fond of him that he lost his words, Tao Cheng only leaned forward to kiss him.

The strands of hair are intertwined and coiled in the narrow basket, sealed with candle tears, hanging on the neck.

Qingmo held it and stroked it, feeling as happy as falling into the clouds, he asked, "I still remember the first time we met when we were young, you told me not to cry, and you stopped playing with me when you became ugly."

Tao Cheng smiled slightly, "Don't take children's words seriously."

Qingmo also laughed, "But I will always get old, and when I get old, I will become ugly. Tao Cheng, let's find a peach blossom garden, maybe there will be a panacea."

Tao Cheng hugged him into his arms and looked at the sparkling lake together.

"Anywhere is good. The world is vast. When we wandered and met our favorite place on the way, we stayed there to live."

"Where is the Peach Blossom Spring?"

"Well. Right now, this waterside courtyard is also a paradise of peach blossoms."

After listening to the love words full of ears, Qing Mo stopped talking, bathed in the gentle breeze and looked at the sky.

The world is vast, and the stars move.

At the beginning of the moonlight, a pair of lovesick birds snuggled up and returned home.
