Xijing Chronicle

In the spring of this year, a swallow flew under the eaves. I didn’t know what I was busy with during the day. I couldn’t see the bird’s shadow all day long, and I didn’t make a nest. I came back to sleep alone at night. Seeing that summer is almost over, I still All alone, alone.

That night, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Gu Huaisheng drank the ginger soup and sweated. He hugged Jin Xuenian and wanted to sleep with him for a while. Unexpectedly, a flash of lightning struck, and suddenly there was a frightened cry of a bird outside the house. Jin Xuenian Nian froze for a moment, quickly pushed Gu Huaisheng away, put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out.

Gu Huaisheng was sitting alone on the bed, the ups and downs are not enough to describe his mood at the moment.

"Huaisheng, this swallow is injured." The unconscious Jin Xuenian walked in holding a bird carefully, "Do you still have that Yulu ointment, please bandage it."

Gu Huaisheng hated his teeth so much that he finally got rid of the three oil bottles and had a chance to be alone in a room, and another bird came, did God intend it?

He said angrily: "No more."

"Don't make trouble." Jin Xuenian found an old dress and spread it on the floor, put the swallow in the clothes, then ignored someone's face that was getting darker and darker, went to the bedside to touch a bottle of Yulu ointment, and then squatted on the ground Take care of the swallows.

Gu Huaisheng sat on the bed and stared at his back, sulking. After a while, he couldn't see his reaction, and felt boring. Seeing that the good time would be wasted more and more, he could only move to Jin Xuenian with a dark face, and snatched it away. Passing the bird in his hand, he sneered and said, "Where is the injury, I will bandage it."

Swallow was originally rubbing against Jin Xuenian's fingers very affectionately, but when it touched Gu Huaisheng's hand, he immediately calmed down. Looking carefully, he could faintly tremble.

Jin Xuenian looked at Gu Huaisheng amusedly, pushed aside the swallow's wings, and pointed to the root of the wing: "Here, it's all blood, and the hair is gone."

Gu Huaisheng angrily picked a large piece of Yulu ointment and smeared it on it, the swallow let out a shrill scream, and then fell silent in the eyes of Gu Huaisheng who was about to swallow it alive.

After healed the wound, Gu Huaisheng threw the swallows into his clothes, gathered them up and piled them behind the screen, and dragged Jin Xuenian to the bed. Jin Xuenian held back a smile and patted his arm: "Wait a minute."

Gu Huaisheng finally exploded: "What else is there?!"

"Here are two pieces of candied cakes. Come and eat some to calm down." Jin Xuenian took the plate on the table, Gu Huaisheng stared at him, and after a long while, he finally managed to take one and stuffed it into his mouth to show that he had calmed down. , chewing while pushing Jin Xuenian on the bed, it was rare for Jin Xuenian to see him look childish, and with a smile on his face, he came over to lick off the residue from his lips.

"Sweet."

Gu Huaisheng's eyes darkened, and he quickly swallowed all the cakes in his mouth, squinting his eyes dangerously, and slowly lowered his hands along his waistline, his voice was hoarse and full of pressure: "You accepted my gift, I But you have to pay back."

Jin Xuenian's heartbeat almost stopped, she held back the muffled groan from her lips, and her voice became hoarse: "What do you want?"

Gu Guogong replaced answers with practical actions.

The next morning, the sky had not yet cleared, and the rain was still pouring down. Gu Huaisheng put on his clothes refreshed and was about to go out when he heard a few feeble birdsong behind the screen. Then he remembered the bird. The swallow is still here.

He was in a good mood at the moment, not only didn't care about it listening to the corner, but also mercifully ordered someone to grab a handful of rice and sprinkle it in front of the swallow, but the swallow was still huddled there, waiting to see When Jin Xuenian came over, she immediately started chirping, fluttering her wings and leaned over there aggrievedly.

Jin Xuenian held it and touched it twice, and looked at Gu Huaisheng reproachfully: "How old are you, and you still bully a bird."

Gu Huaisheng, who was more wronged than Dou E: "..."

In the next day, Gu Huaisheng finally understood the tricks of this bird. It was so tall, it was too tall. No matter who touched it, it would be fine, even if that little boy Chu Tingya said he wanted to eat roasted swallows. Loitering and not moving around, but as soon as he appeared, he immediately yelled as if being chased by his enemies, but every time he yelled when Jin Xuenian could hear him, it made him feel wronged, and he was afraid that he would jump into it. The Yellow River can't even wash it clean.

I'm afraid this swallow grew up in the palace, right? ? ?

I endured it like this until after lunch, when suddenly a servant rushed in, almost crying: "Master, Lord! Go and have a look, that swallow flew to the golden plaque given by the Holy Majesty. Still..."

Gu Huaisheng's heart tightened, he quickly put down his chopsticks and rushed out murderously, his face darkened completely when he saw what happened - the swallow was very jubilantly standing on the golden plaque, and the emperor himself mentioned "deep affection" There were several puddles of thin white bird droppings on the four large characters.

"Come here! This bird has committed a crime of disrespect, let me catch it! Shoot and kill!"

"Pfft—" Xue Zinu couldn't help laughing out loud, and Gu Huaisheng's gloomy eyes immediately fell on him, his body shook, and the smile froze on his face.

Of course the swallow failed to catch in the end, and Gu Huaisheng would not really care about a bird, but he always felt aggrieved and panicked, especially when he saw Jin Xuenian and Xue Zinu getting together in the afternoon and muttering something, I feel even more sour.

He pretended to have nothing to do and walked over: "What are you talking about, mysterious?"

However, Jin Xuenian immediately stopped the conversation with Xue Zinu, watching him smile more innocently than the other: "It's nothing."

After Gu Huaisheng left, they got together again.

Gu Huaisheng turned around, grabbed Chu Tingya who was chatting with Yu Wuyan, and said seriously: "Xiaoya, can you hear what Xue Nian and Zi Nu are talking about?"

"I can hear it," Chu Tingya gave him a strange look, and refused righteously, "But I can't say it. "

"..."

When Gu Huaisheng turned his head again, he found that Jin Xuenian and Xue Zinu had disappeared.

They just waited until it was dark, and the two returned to the mansion. Xue Zinu directed the servants to move the things on the carriage down one by one. The man took all the things into the kitchen, turned around and pulled Gu Huaisheng with a smile, "It's Qixi Festival after all, although we don't have any girls begging here, it's good to have a reunion dinner and be happy."

Gu Huaisheng looked at him suspiciously: "You've been busy with this all afternoon? Why are you keeping it from me?"

Jin Xuenian smiled, but said nothing.

Gu Huaisheng was especially puzzled, but the few people who obviously knew the truth refused to say anything, and he couldn't pry their mouths open, so he had to give up.

When the meal was ready, Jin Xuenian even ordered someone to take out a lot of wine from the cellar, and Xue Zinu and Chu Tingya, two stinky boys, made jokes. Had a lively meal.

After the meal, the few people dispersed. Gu Huaisheng and Jin Xuenian walked into the yard one after the other. When they reached an open space, Jin Xuenian suddenly grabbed him: "Gu Huaisheng."

"Huh?" Gu Huaisheng turned his head.

Jin Xuenian took out a string of sandalwood bracelets from his arms, and handed them to him with a smile. Gu Huaisheng looked familiar, so he couldn't help taking them over and looking carefully: "This is..."

"Do you remember when you were young, you brought me a string of sandalwood bracelets when you came back from your study tour in the south of the Yangtze River? That was the first gift I received in my life," Jin Xuenian took out from his arms as he spoke. A bunch of bracelets, very similar to the one in Gu Huaisheng's hand, "I thought about it for a long time and didn't know what to give you, so I finally chose this one. Although it's not as good as the one you gave me, it's not bad. You See if you like it."

Gu Huaisheng's heart was filled to the brim in an instant, he lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled, and immediately wrapped the string around his wrist: "I like it, I like it so much."

Jin Xuenian looked at him without blinking, against the watery moonlight, his eyes seemed to be filled with a pool of spring water: "Gu Huaisheng—"

A burst of fireworks suddenly exploded behind him, and immediately after, countless fireworks rose into the sky, turning the whole sky red. The moment they bloomed, Jin Xuenian opened and closed his lips lightly, and Gu Huaisheng's eyes widened. Hot, leaned forward and kissed him.

Although he couldn't hear the sound, he could know what it was saying.

The sky was full of gorgeous fireworks, as if the best time had stayed at this moment. After the kiss, Jin Xuenian caressed Gu Huaisheng's cheek obsessively. He knew that there was another face under this skin, but it didn't matter, whether it was Every face is the one he loves.

The swallow suddenly flew back chirping, circling around the two of them, and at some point behind it was followed by another swallow.

The two birds spun lightly, and quickly chased and flew high into the sky, disappearing into the night.

Gu Huaisheng smiled, turned his eyes back to Jin Xuenian, leaned over, put his forehead against his forehead, and said softly:

"Me too."

—I admire you.

--Me too.
