This brother is a bit cold in time travel

Yao Keren originally planned to go to Qingshan Village with Wei Chuyang by himself, but Mrs. Chen seemed to still care about the fact that the two had been engaged, so she coaxed Li Ji to go together, which made Li Ji complain all the way, but he was relieved , probably forgot that her husband had an affair with Wei Chuyang.

Wei Chuyang did not tell them that Yang Xin'er was only 17 years old, so Yao Keren and Li Ji were shocked when they met for the first time. After returning to Li's house, Wei Chuyang retired.

Yang Xin'er transformed into Doctor Yang.As soon as he arrived at Li's house, he ordered everyone in the mansion not to approach Li Shu's place as much as possible. For the next month, he was responsible for Li Shu's basic necessities of life, and the others only needed to cooperate. In this way, Yang Xin'er moved into Li Shu's house. Wash the room.

"Brother..." It was night, and the room was very quiet, and Li Shu's timid voice rang in Yang Xin'er's ears.Since Li Shu might have a fever at any time, and to prevent him from scratching the blisters, Yang Xin'er slept with him.

"Call him doctor." Yang Xin'er turned to face him, he didn't like others calling him brother.

"Doctor..." Li Shu was timid and Yang Xin'er wasn't kind enough, so his voice became smaller and smaller, and he wished he could hide his head under the quilt.

"Well, just say something."

"IM thirsty……"

Yang Xin'er didn't say anything, she lifted the quilt, put on her shoes and touched the table by the moonlight, poured a cup of tea and walked back to the bed, helped her up to feed the water, and asked: "Do you want more?"

Li Shu shook his head slightly. He didn't know if Yang Xin'er saw it. Anyway, he just lay back on the bed. Before going to bed, he remembered to touch Li Shu's forehead to make sure he didn't have a fever, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After falling asleep for a while, Yang Xin'er noticed a movement around her, and immediately woke up, and grabbed Li Shu's hands to prevent him from scratching.

"Hmm..." Li Shu was still in a drowsy sleep, and began to cry from the itching.

Yang Xin'er had no choice but to hold him in her arms, and patted him on the shoulder unskillfully, until he almost fell asleep, and Li Shu's crying gradually weakened.

In the evening, after the shower had stopped, Wei Chuyang followed Jiang Min out.It was a very inconspicuous alley at the end of the street. It was narrow and deep. The uneven stone road was wet and dark blue. The sky was gloomy. Looking into the alley, there were only a few scattered yellow lights lanterns.

"Why is it so gloomy here? It's so cold." Wei Chuyang touched his arm with his hand without an umbrella.

"No one lives now. It turns out that this alley is called Furong Alley, because there is a hibiscus tree that has grown for many years at the entrance of the alley." Jiang Min walked unhurriedly.

"Why didn't you see it when you came in?" Wei Chuyang made sure he didn't see any trees at the entrance of the alley.

"Listen to me, don't interrupt." Jiang Ming continued, "At that time, the houses in Furong Lane were all occupied by people, and they were all craftsmen, who made umbrellas, fans, embroidered shoes, and others. The jewelry maker, anyway, has all kinds of old crafts, and it was quite lively, and then the old Yu family who made the umbrella had a brother named Qilang."

"Qilang? Do they have seven children in their family?" Wei Chuyang couldn't help interrupting Jiang Min's words. As far as he knew, older brothers in this world are not very fertile. Generally, three or four children are considered a lot, and so are only children. Often.

"No, there is only one child in the Yu family. As for why it was called Qilang, I can't remember after such a long time. Qilang was cute and cute since he was a child, and when he grows up, he is even more charming. The second elder of the Yu family loves him very much. Qilang I really like the hibiscus at the entrance of the alley. Whenever the hibiscus blooms, those boys who admire him pick the hibiscus flowers that are still stained with dew and put them quietly on the steps in front of his house, so that he can see them as soon as he opens the door. arrive."

"So this is actually a love story?" Wei Chuyang said in his heart, he really couldn't connect the dark and simple alley in front of him with a beautiful love story.

"When Qilang was 17 years old, the hibiscus flowering period came again, but as the days passed, the hibiscus flowers in front of Yu's house were never picked up, and they all withered on the stone steps. Just after the flowering period, it rained all night one night , the next morning the rain stopped, and Qilang was found hanged on the hibiscus tree at the entrance of the alley, but the hibiscus that had passed its flowering period bloomed again overnight, more beautiful than ever before." Jiang Min told a story. The speech is devoted, and the pace is unknowingly slowed down.

Just passing under the eaves of a house, a drop of water from the corner of the eaves was falling on Wei Chuyang's neck, which made him shiver in shock.This is obviously a routine of a love story, why did it become a horror?But curiosity was still there, so he asked, "And then?"

"Then, that night, Lao Yu's family chopped down the hibiscus tree, and disappeared the next day. The people in the town didn't care, they only said that Lao Yu's family had left this sad place, and then the shoemaker's family They disappeared too, followed by those who made fans, rubbed monuments, and painted sugar figurines... In the end, there was only one old man who made jewelry." Jiang Min stopped talking.

"And then?" Wei Chuyang asked.

"arrive."

"Ah?" Wei Chuyang didn't react.

"I said we're here." Jiang Min stopped in front of a house and pulled Wei Chuyang up to knock on the door.

While waiting for someone to open the door, Wei Chuyang pestered Jiang Min to ask questions: "Didn't you say that there is only one old man left? But along the way, there are not only one houses with lanterns on. Also, why did Qilang hang himself in the house?" On the hibiscus tree? Where are the others going? Is it fake that the flowers bloom overnight?"

"How many years ago did this happen, you still don't allow people to move in..."

While speaking, the door opened with a creak, and the person who opened the door was an old man with white eyebrows. He let the two of them into the room without asking any questions, and then closed the door again.

"Wow, woof, woof..." As soon as I entered the door, I heard a fierce dog barking. The dog was quite big, with dark yellow fur, but the ends of the hair on its back and ears were black, and it looked scary. .

"Go!" The old man kicked the dog.

"Woof..." The dog barked as if begging for mercy, and walked away.

"What do you want to see?" The old man took out a two-foot-square wooden box from the corner and put it on the table. The room was dark, and he lit the candle again. Under the dim candlelight, the simple and simple patterns on the wooden box were faintly visible.

"Look at the lock." Jiang Ming said.

The old man opened the lock on the wooden box, and the inside of the uncovered box was covered with dazzling silver ornaments. Wei Chuyang looked at it with wide eyes, and instantly brought into the story that Jiang Min had just told.

"Ah, why do we buy locks?" Wei Chuyang was puzzled.

"As a betrothal gift." Jiang Min was picking it up.

"Who would give a long-life lock to a relative? Isn't it for children?" Wei Chuyang asked in surprise.

"Who said the longevity lock is going to be given away?" Jiang Min said, and took a lock from it, which looked like a pair of mandarin ducks crossing their necks.

"Hey? This looks pretty, what is it?" Wei Chuyang took it from Jiang Min's hand to admire in amazement. This pair of mandarin ducks is not as big as a palm, but they are portrayed vividly. The affection between the mandarin ducks is very infectious.

"This is called a mandarin duck lock." The old man said suddenly.

"Is there only one mandarin duck lock?" Jiang Min asked.

"It was originally a pair, but one has already been bought. My old Yu has always only sold singles, not pairs." The old man replied.

"Then this one." Jiang Min readily paid ten taels of silver, took out a handkerchief from his arms, wrapped the mandarin duck lock carefully, and put it back in his arms.Then he took Wei Chuyang to leave.

Wei Chuyang didn't understand why Jiang Min came to this remote place to buy jewelry. There were obviously a lot of jewelry shops on the street, so he asked on the way back.

"Those shops are full of flashy things. Only veteran craftsmen like Mr. Yu can make the best jewelry. It is made with heart and wishes. But people don't pay much attention to it now. Mr. Yu's rules are a bit weird. The ornaments he makes are always in pairs, but they are always sold separately. Speaking of which, you should be considered a veteran craftsman, and his embroidery skills are also passed down from generation to generation. of."

"Then Yi Luo can do it too?" Wei Chuyang took it for granted that Yi Luo was also good at embroidery.

"Hehe, you, Ah Ying, have been worrying about this for so many years. I have to say that Luo Geer has not inherited Han Ying's talent in embroidery."

"Huh?" Wei Chuyang was surprised at first, but after brainstorming, he found that he really couldn't imagine Yi Luo embroidering flowers like a lady.

Halfway there, it started to rain again, Wei Chuyang opened his umbrella, and the father and son walked out of the alley slowly.
