I bent the devil

It's tricky... don't you have to bite the bullet...

Gu Baba gave himself all kinds of encouragement in his heart, and used Xiaoqing as a channel to make Qingyi the only snack he learned when he was a helper in Hewu every day.At the beginning, Xiaoqing nodded wildly after eating, praising the delicious food with bright eyes, but after a long time, when Gu Jiu let Xiaoqing taste it again, she couldn't help but look stiff.

Even Xiaoqing, who once wished that as long as he could eat a full meal, even if he ate a lifetime of corn bread, was willing to make such an ambitious wish, he couldn't help but start to reflect. Could it be that this was actually because he had made such a wish back then, But when he can really have enough to eat every day, he starts to be greedy for all kinds of delicacies. What is the retribution after all? !

...This way of retribution is so unique..._(:3ゝ∠)_

Seeing the pastry approaching him again, the boy couldn't help but leaned back, stared at the pastry and swallowed with difficulty, then raised his eyes and slowly returned it with a look of anticipation waiting for him to taste it. Gu Jiu, who gave the answer, looked at it and tried his best to make himself smile as beautifully as usual, "Brother Gu, you have been making this kind of dim sum for a month, I believe you must have fully grasped the taste of the city lord now, You don't need to try it anymore, do you?"

... Please let me go, big brother!ah? !Let go of poor Xiaoqing, shall we? !

The boy decided to take the time to go to the temple to fulfill his vows. He felt extremely ashamed that he was so young and ignorant that he felt satisfied by eating only one kind of food.

"You really don't need to try?" Gu Jiu asked suspiciously after looking at the dim sum.He knew from Xiaoqing that the taste of Tsing Yi has always been bland, and there is always something that doesn't smell greasy for a month, and even the pastry doesn't like too sweet, the sweetness is pitifully low.

For so many years, she has lived in such a peaceful and peaceful way. If it weren't for the clothes that belonged to the city lord of Huaicheng, Xiaoqing would have thought that Song Qingyi was going to become a layman and practice Taoism every minute.

After telling Gu Jiu about it, Gu Baba felt so distressed.He remembered Song Qingyi's taste. Although he didn't like heavy onion, ginger and garlic, he was still a young man with a normal diet.Especially those who practice martial arts, usually exercise more than ordinary people.He is also the lord of Huaicheng, and after watching the confrontation with the Wulin League some time ago, I believe that he has been thinking about various plans on weekdays.

Whether it's brain or physical strength, a lot of meat is needed to supplement it. Just listening to Xiaoqing's usual diet, Gu Jiu has to say that it is thanks to the genes of his old Song family, otherwise it can grow up to now How about a head taller than yourself?

Yes, Tsing Yi, whom he hadn't seen for many years, was now about a head taller than him.

That day when Gu Jiu put his hand on his horse and got off the horse, he discovered it.

...Now I really need to look up every minute..._(:3ゝ∠)_

Xiaoqing said seriously, "This is what Brother Gu gave to the city lord. It was okay to let me taste it because you couldn't grasp the taste before, but now that you can grasp the taste of the city lord, it would be inappropriate for Xiaoqing to try it again!" ' Seriously rejected Gu Jiu's request.I completely forgot that half an hour ago the boy still hated Gu Jiu for putting too much sugar.

...Anyway, as long as Brother Gu made it, even if it was salted, the city lord would eat it all without changing his expression.

Xiaoqing: <(￣︶￣)>

So there is no need to worry about such trivial matters as taste.

After Gu temporarily prepared all the tea and cakes to be sent to Song Qingyi, he and Xiaoqing carried a food box and sent them to City Lord Song as usual.After trying several times but being blocked by Tsing Yi's dark guards B[-] and B[-] without exception, Gu Jiu just helped Xiaoqing deliver the cakes to the gate of the small courtyard, and then waited for him to deliver them to Tsing Yi on the path. Go in, come out, and go back together.

It's just that the temperature has dropped severely recently. If it is still carried on a tray like before, let alone a small courtyard, it is estimated that it will completely cool down after walking dozens of steps.

Although the pastry made by Gu Jiu can be eaten hot or cold, but wouldn't it be better to have a hot and sweet pastry in this cold weather?

So the pastries are also packed in food boxes.

But what is different today is that the two of them had just walked along the path, and after they were no longer covered by the bamboo forest, they saw B[-] and B[-] standing outside the small courtyard, with expressionless faces, but with a smile on their faces. Quite weird.

After Xiaoqing and Gu Jiu approached, without waiting for Xiaoqing to speak, he took the initiative to say to the young man, "Xiaoqing, the city lord has something to ask you, as for the cakes, please Mr. Gu...send them to the garden pavilion."

"...Huh?" Xiaoqing was a little dumbfounded.Glancing with Gu Jiu who was also surprised, he turned his head to confirm again and said, "Is there a task... for me?" Pointing at himself with his index finger, and then pointing at Gu Jiu next to him, "Let Brother Gu send it to the garden Gazebo?"

Is this rumor going the wrong way?

Er Er looked at the boy's actions, seeming to remind and emphasize, "It's Mr. Gu."

The boy stared, and was about to talk back as usual, but when he met Yier's eyes, he suddenly understood something in a flash.As soon as his eyes lit up, he received a warning from Er Er hidden in his eyes, suppressed the excitement in his heart and the feeling of wanting to jump up, and handed the food box in his hand to Gu Jiu beside him with a sullen face.

"Gu...Mr. Gu. I'm sorry to trouble you." Xiaoqing wrinkled her nose and said, "You can follow this path for the garden gazebo, turn left when you see a fork in the road, and you can see it by walking straight. The center is."

Gu Jiu looked at Er Er and San who were already expressionless, then looked at Xiao Qing and nodded.It's just sending the snacks over, it's not a big deal, but Gu Baba who didn't see Tsing Yi today is inevitably a little bit disappointed.

After watching Gu Jiu who was slightly exuding "I didn't see the baby in Tsing Yi today, I feel so disappointed" left, Xiaoqing turned around and looked at B[-] and B[-] with a proud face and slightly raised eyebrows, "huh Hmph, I told you a long time ago that Mr. Gu and I were allowed to enter the study~ Well, now that you have been punished, you know~" A villain like 'I have already talked to Ni Meng' appearance.

If it hadn't been for thinking about it when they looked at each other just now, and out of the corner of their eyes, they saw the leggings of second third slightly exposed outside the robe, Xiaoqing really couldn't react at once.You know, every time the city lord is dissatisfied with some of his subordinates' decisions but can't reach the execution hall and only intends to be punished lightly, he will choose to let them wear black iron gauntlets and leggings with different weights inside.

This is really uncomfortable for martial arts practitioners who are used to convenience and ease.The most important thing is that the city lord Song chose to wear for his subordinates, not ordinary black iron, but cold ice black iron.

This kind of cold ice black iron, which is dreamed by everyone in the Jianghu and is the first choice for weapon material, was used by Song Qingyi to make leggings and hand guards for his subordinates, which increased the weight..._(:3ゝ∠)_

Yi Er narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the proud Xiao Qing in front of him. After laughing enough, he slowly took out the hand that had been carried behind his back, raised it in front of the boy, shook it twice, and looked at his dumbfounded expression instantly. After the expression, he raised his eyebrows quite proudly. "Here, this is yours."

"..." Why did he have it too? !unfair! q dish q

As if seeing through Xiaoqing's thoughts, Er Er was expressionless, but explained in a brisk voice. "The reason for your punishment is the same as ours."

"What?" Xiaoqing felt extremely aggrieved, rather unconvinced but raised her head pitifully.

——"I don't know how to adapt."

"..." This reason for punishment is really convinced...

-------------------

According to what Xiaoqing said, Gu Jiu had been walking for about ten minutes before he saw the gazebo from a distance. The young man who was slightly out of breath carrying two food boxes was slightly taken aback when he saw the people in the gazebo. The heart beats half a beat faster.

After standing still for a while, he took another step and approached slowly with some hesitation and uncertainty.

As he got closer, his heartbeat gradually accelerated. When he was outside the gazebo, Gu Jiu was really sure that the person inside was really the person he had always wanted to see.

Song Qingyi half-lyed on the recliner placed in the gazebo, even without knowing that Gu Jiu had slowly stepped into the gazebo and approached him, he turned his face slightly, his long and straight eyelashes covered his pure black eyes, projecting Two rows of small fan-shaped shadows appeared, looking towards Gu Jiu's angle, the eyelashes looked extraordinarily long, but also inexplicably fragile and slender.Looking at his gray sideburns made Gu Jiu feel distressed and guilty.

But all of this is done by the system, and he can't come and go freely.

Song Qingyi looked like the weather was good, so he was basking in the sun while reading a book in the gazebo. He didn't even wear a robe on his body. He only covered his legs with a thin blanket, and his slender and powerful hands naturally hung down on his waist. In the abdomen, fingers slightly clasped the books that had slipped.

It seems that I am very tired.

Gu temporarily put the food box in his hand aside, and even his breathing slowed down before he approached Song Qingyi, and slowly pulled up the thin blanket that was casually hanging on his legs, covering his entire shoulders before stopping.

When the fingers were withdrawn from Song Qingyi's broad shoulders, they paused slightly, as if they had stopped for some reason.

After a while, he stretched out his hand gently, and slowly touched Song Qingyi's sideways face slightly. At this moment, Gu Jiu was facing his gray temples, and his fingers curled up as if they were burned the moment they were about to touch them. After a pause of two seconds, there was a slow, barely audible light touch.

His fingertips trembled coldly.

Gu Jiu looked at Song Qingyi's sleeping face, with distressed eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed.I feel tightness in my chest.

But he couldn't vent it loudly, because it would disturb Tsing Yi, so he could only let the heavy dull pain writhe in his heart, chewing alone.

This man is now in a high position, has become famous and has excellent martial arts.He is no longer the toddler who needed to be protected by himself, nor is he the stubborn teenager who occasionally shows his sharpness.

At this moment, at the best age for a man, he has everything and enjoys everything.But he told his servant that for so many years, the man in front of him lived almost like a monk.

——It's like I can't let go of it and I've been thinking about something.

Gu Jiu still remembered that after Xiaoqing carefully observed himself, he cautiously and tentatively spoke about what he felt.

I can't let go.

I have been remembering.

Always... thinking about it.

Because of him?Gu Jiu suddenly felt hot under his eyes, and he closed them hard before slowly opening them again.After staring deeply at the sleeping Song Qingyi with deep distress and pity, he slowly bent down and approached him.

The hot and humid breath made the hand, which had been placed quietly in the waist and abdomen, and was covered by a thin blanket, convulse and throb.
