Major General Through the Upper Gate

Cheng Wei didn't know how to talk to Gu Xicheng about this kind of thing, so he had to hold it in by himself.The craftsmen came back to work again. On the eighth day of May, the foundation stone of Cheng Wei's new house was laid.

The tung flowers in Tonghua Village seemed to be in full bloom overnight after the Qingming Festival. The tung flowers all over the mountains were swaying in the clouds and mist with the wind, and Gu Xizhen knew that the tree behind their house was a tung oil tree.

There is no such spectacular scene on the blue star. In this spring when all kinds of flowers are in full bloom, Gu Xizhen is often fascinated by the various flowers.He stared intently at the newly blooming red azaleas on the mountain, and then he couldn't resist digging two and putting them in the basket.

This is not the first time he has brought wild flowers from the mountain back home. He has re-planted the field in the yard that was used to grow fennel vegetables last year, and the flowers brought back from the mountain are neatly planted.

"Let's go to the county tomorrow. There is a flower festival in the county at this time of year." Cheng Wei mentioned something to Gu Xizheng at night. It was also because he saw that Gu Xizheng liked flowers so much, and wanted to take him to the county town to see it. look.

Although he was still awkward, he thought it was only once a year, so it would be a pity not to go to see it.What's more, flowers from all over the south will gather in the county at that time, and more rare varieties will be seen.

And Gu Xizheng has been here for so long, he has never taken anyone out, even if it is not to see flowers, it is good to see the world.

"Okay." Gu Xizheng looked at Cheng Wei's back, and replied with a word.

It's not that he didn't feel Cheng Wei's indifference towards him during this time, Gu Xizhen silently retracted his outstretched hand, closed his eyes, and made a decision in his heart.

He didn't want to hide Cheng Wei, nor did he want to lose him.

Gu Xizhen, who put his hand lightly on Cheng Wei's waist, thought, when he comes back from the county this time, he should talk to Cheng Wei.No matter what Cheng Wei thought in the end, he respected Cheng Wei's decision.

After the foundation stone was laid, the house seemed to be erected. Cheng Wei found a free day and went to the county with Gu Xicheng.

Originally, this trip was to relax, but when he came back, Cheng Wei had a gloomy expression on his face.

"Cheng Wei, listen to me." Gu Xijiao held Cheng Wei's hand, his expression was very serious, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

"Gu Xichao, let me calm down. I'm not in a good mood right now, I can't talk to you calmly, and I don't want to fight with you, let me think for myself." Cheng Wei shook off him and pushed He opened the door of the yard and went up the mountain.

Gu Xicheng looked at the direction he was leaving, worried after all, and followed him from a distance.

This time when he went to the county seat, Cheng Wei originally intended to take him to the flower fair.Flower fairs in the south are always grand and lively, and he didn't know until he followed Cheng Wei to the county town that the few streets in the town could only be regarded as a small market.

The day they arrived was very coincidental, and they happened to meet a big boat docking by the river, and it was the first time for Gu Xizheng to see this flower boat from another world, so he couldn't help but stand by the river and take a second look.

Probably because his height and appearance were too conspicuous among the crowd, when the flower boat docked, suddenly something was thrown towards his face from the side window near him.

Gu Xizhen subconsciously stretched out his hand to pick it up, and before he could understand what was going on, a dozen people suddenly got off the boat and said in unison: "My lord, please come aboard."

People around looked at him and made envious voices. No one knew that every year in Beijing, there are official ladies who come to the south by flower boat to enjoy the flowers.It is a lifetime blessing for ordinary people to catch a glimpse of a girl's appearance, and I don't know which lady fell in love with this kid, so she threw a silk handkerchief to him directly.

Under the envious eyes of his surroundings, Gu Xijiao found that something was wrong with Cheng Wei beside him.

"Cheng Wei?" Gu Xizheng turned his head and called him.

"Since you picked it up, go up and have a look." Cheng Wei stared at the flower boat and said coldly, without even giving him a look.

"Young master, please get on the boat quickly."

The person who looked like a family servant kept urging him again, Gu Xizhen frowned and said, "I just saw something dropped and picked it up, Cheng Wei, you go with me."

"My lord, my lady let you go alone." The servant said neither humble nor overbearing, he made a gesture of invitation, making it clear that he had to go this time.

Cheng Wei lowered his eyes slowly, and said, "Go, I'll wait for you here."

There has been a lot of commotion on their side, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that he is Gu Xijiao's younger brother. If Gu Xijiao doesn't come down for a while, then he will be a joke.

"Then you wait for me, I'll be down in a while." Gu Xijiao squeezed his hand and said in a low voice, and followed the others quickly onto the flower boat.

Gu Xizheng was invited onto the boat under his nose, Cheng Wei couldn't tell what his inner feelings were like at the moment.He tried his best to convince himself that Gu Xijiao was a person with no memory, and he had no idea what it meant to accept the silk handkerchief thrown from the flower boat.

But there was a more terrifying thought that couldn't be controlled in his heart. Gu Xizheng didn't want to have sex with him for so long. Could it be that he only likes women in the first place.

There are not many such people, and he has never seen them, but he heard that there are indeed some in Yunyue Kingdom.

Or, his family in the north already had a woman's wife.

Cheng Wei immediately denied the latter conjecture. He squeezed his fingers tightly, stared at the small piece of river under his feet, and thought, if he had a marriage, the official would have informed him when he settled down. , how could he and Gu Xijiao form a contract again.

However, what if it is not a wife, but a fiancee.

But in just a short while, Cheng Wei's heart was in a mess, it was already May, but he felt like falling into an ice cellar, and his whole body was shivering with cold from beginning to end.

On the other side, the ignorant Gu Xijiao took the silk handkerchief onto the boat, and he was led to the inner cabin.In the cabin hung with bamboo curtains, a soft voice came out: "But did you bring someone here?"

"Yes, miss, people are outside."

Gu Xicheng stood outside the curtain, he frowned slightly and said, "I don't know if Miss invited me up, but is there something wrong?"

A low laugh came from the curtain, and it took a while to hear her say: "I am the Fourth Miss of the Beijing Linfu. I saw you accepting my handkerchief just now. Would you like to go back to Beijing with me?"

Gu Xicheng was not stupid, he instantly understood the meaning of the handkerchief, no wonder Cheng Wei's face was so ugly just now.

He looked up at the bamboo curtain, clasped his hands and saluted this other world: "I'm really sorry, I'm already a bonded person, and my brother is waiting for me under the boat. I didn't know the meaning of this handkerchief just now, so I didn't mean to offend you." , please forgive me, girl."

"...You don't want to?" After Gu Xizheng finished speaking, there was a slight noise from inside after a long while. Gu Xizheng looked at the shadowy shadow and judged that the other party should have stood up.

"Yes." Gu Xizheng put the silk handkerchief on the table beside him, and he said in a straight voice, "I already have a lover, and I really don't care about girls."

"In that case...well, you go."

"Thank you."

Gu Xijiao was ushered off the boat again, and when he saw him come down and surround the crowd who refused to leave, there was a burst of booing.How could a young lady from a wealthy family just fall in love with any boy, just to make fun of him because he is good-looking.

"Cheng Wei." Gu Xizheng walked straight towards Cheng Wei as soon as he got off the boat.

The person standing there motionless seemed to wake up when he heard his voice, and looked up at him in a daze.Only then did Gu Xizhen realize that Cheng Wei's face turned pale.

"What's the matter with you?" Gu Xizhen hurried to shake his hand. In May, which had already warmed up, Cheng Wei's hand was icy cold.

Gu Xicheng hurriedly dragged the person away from the crowded river, he found a wall with few people to stand firm, and stretched out his hand to explore Cheng Wei's forehead.

"Cheng Wei, what's wrong with you?" Gu Xijiao looked into his eyes and asked, it was fine just now, why did it happen just for a while.

"It's nothing, Gu Xicheng, I'm a little tired." Cheng Wei smiled at him reluctantly, with an ugly look on his face like never before.

"Then let's go back to the inn to rest for a while." Gu Xizheng led him towards the booked inn. Because the county seat is too far away from Tonghua Village, it is not realistic to go back and forth in one day, so he decided to come and see the flowers. Before long, I planned to stay in the county for one night.

Cheng Wei, who was walking straight up the mountain, had red eyes. He didn't want to recall how he unrestrainedly asked Gu Xizheng for it that night in the county town, and he didn't want to remember how embarrassed he looked in Gu Xizheng's always sober eyes.

Sometimes, rejection doesn't need words, it's ridiculous that he is the only one who doesn't understand for so long.

"Gu Xichao." Cheng Wei, who had been walking madly in the mountains for two hours, finally stopped from exhaustion. He stood on a small slope and turned his head to look at the people who followed him all the way. He tried his best to steady his voice. Said: "Let's make peace."

He looked at Gu Xicheng with red eyes, his heart was obviously overwhelmed by sadness, but he still refused to shed a single tear in his eyes.

This is probably his last pride in this relationship that has not had time to blossom.
