The three-life stone lives in a romantic way, why use the Iceman to speak? ——Xingshi Hengyan

"Young master, eat more..."

"Ahem... I've eaten enough..."

"Master, you see that you have such a severe cough, how can you not eat more? I asked the display cabinet of the raw medicine shop in Panlou East Street, and he said that "Food Treatment Gate" specifically mentioned pig kidneys paired with Shu Shu. Wrapped in wet paper and simmered, it does wonders for coughing.”

"Hongqiao... there are so many instructions in it, but... you brought so much at once, I can't eat it."

"Hey, look at your appetite, which is thinner than that of a big girl. Why don't you drink less alcohol. You are not allowed to drink any more for seven days. I told Yinger not to give you soju."

"Then, then you might as well feed me to death with pork loin..."

Hongqiao raised her eyebrows, and threw half of her body on Hu Yue's body. Hu Yue's head was twisted too far, but Hongqiao was helplessly holding a bowl of soup steadily in one hand, while the other was as white as jade. hand holding a spoon.But the movement is like stuffing fat duck feed, crisp and fast, one spoonful at a time, never sloppy.

Hu Yue could only turn her head and shout; "Brother Chu, save me! Brother Chu!"

Holding the tea bowl, Chu Jue blew on the tea soup, and looked up at Hu Yue with the bitter face of you coming to save someone.Instead, he smiled, did he know that if he really wanted to push the opponent away, even ten Hongqiaos would not be able to get close to him.He took a sip of tea and said sincerely to Hongqiao: "Miss Hongqiao is absolutely right. I also think that my younger brother drank too much. He should recuperate a little bit and take good care of his body. I think Miss Hongqiao For this reason, I won’t give you wine for seven days.”

The meat in Hu Yue's mouth hadn't been swallowed yet. Hearing what Chu Jue said, he almost spit it out. I can't even swallow it.Hongqiao thought he was in a hurry to feed him, so she quickly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.Frowning, he said distressedly: "Are you choking? Eat slowly."

Hongqiao put down the fourth bowl of medicated food, looked at Hu Yue, rolled her eyes, and pounded her chest fiercely.Seeing that something was wrong, Chu Jue came over and knocked on Hu Yue's back a few times, and Hu Yue swallowed the thing whole.Hu Yue was so choked that her phoenix eyes were red, her eyes were filled with tears, and she couldn't really cry, so she could only cast a complaining glance at Chu Jue. This glance took away the fire in Chu Jue's indifferent eyes. Hu Yue complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to look at him again.

Hu Yue coughed uncontrollably, this torment was indeed enough for him.Not daring to ask Hongqiao to feed her, she quickly picked up the bowl and ate it obediently by herself.Seeing that he had finished the fourth bowl, Hongqiao nodded in satisfaction and said, "I'll clean it up for you. There's still some coal in the kitchen for you to keep. I brought you a hand stove. Don't be cold when writing in winter." I've killed myself." After finishing speaking, she nodded her feet and ran to the yard to boil water with her skirt in hand.

Chu Jue pinched Hu Yue's wrist, and he waited quietly for a moment and said, "The cold air is almost out. It will be better in spring. These days, I still can't save Li Huo Mu."

Hu Yue said, "You told Qiao'er that I was sick?"

Chu Jue smiled slightly and said: "Miss Hongqiao has a heart for you. When she saw that you hadn't come for a few days, she asked someone to inquire about it. When she knew you were sick, she came here to see you immediately. She worked hard. If you want to marry a woman like this, it will be a blessing." A blessing... but..."

He raised Hu Yue's chin, then leaned closer to him and said, "Luo Hua is ruthless, if you can't give others anything, don't let others have expectations. Brother, you understand this truth."

Hu Yue said: "Are you talking about yourself? Brother Chu?"

Chu Jue raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and he said, "Yes, and no."

Chu Jue smiled and pressed his lips to Hu Yue's. Hu Yue's lips were also cold because the cold had not dissipated. After eating so much soup, his mouth was greasy and tasted like Shu Shu.Chu Jue laughed, licked his lips with his tongue, pried them open, and drove straight in.Hu Yue was a little nervous about being kissed, afraid that Hongqiao, who was outside the house, would turn around and enter the house.I didn't dare to resist too much, I just wanted to make Chu Jue amused, how could Chu Jue not know Hu Yue's thoughts, and kissed even more unscrupulously, the two of them who picked each other were about to burn out, so they let go of Hu Yue Hu Yue didn't dare to stare at him anymore, she lowered her head and panted and coughed a few more times. Seeing that his ears were red, Chu Jue kissed his ear softly and whispered: "I treat you with affection and kindness." It doesn't matter whether you are affectionate or not, because I will not let you run away from me. I have this confidence, so I don't care, is there anyone else in this world who can accompany you like this?"

Hu Yue lowered her head, her long eyelashes covered her eyes, but Chu Jue naturally knew that there was no emotion in those eyes.But he didn't know that Hu Yue was shaken in his heart.

At this time, Hongqiao pushed open the cotton curtain and entered the room.Holding a basin and a handkerchief in her hand, she frowned slightly when she saw Hu Yue and Chu Jue approaching very close, and soon smiled cheerfully: "My lord, I can't stay for long, there is a poetry meeting Go to catch up. After cleaning up for you, you should go to bed early. I licked the water in the thermos. There is still half a jar of pig kidney soup and some Chuanbei loquat paste on the stove. Oh, yes, I will give you back Save some ginseng and snow clams. You also save them to eat when you cough at night. Stop drinking and be careful, it’s not a joke to get the root of the disease.”

Hu Yue was about to get up to see him off, but Chu Jue pressed his shoulders, and then he stood up and said, "Your brother is not feeling well, I will send you off, Miss Hongqiao."

Hong Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and stretched out her hand to refuse, but Chu Jue had already stood up and picked up the cloak for Hong Qiao.Hongqiao made a salute and put it on.Looking back at Hu Yue again, Hu Yue stood up and bowed and bowed, and Hong Qiao returned the Wanfu gift.

It was chilly in the street, Hongqiao tugged at her cloak, and looked at Chu Jue from the corner of her eye. Hongqiao always felt that Hu Yue was a coquette in terms of color, and it was hard to find a few people like him in the whole capital.But this Mr. Chu Jue has a different appearance.Chu Jue smiled slightly and said, "The girl is looking at me?"

Hongqiao immediately lowered her head and said with a blushing face, "Young Master Chu and Young Master Hu have such a good relationship. I have known Young Master Hu for so long, and I have never seen him as a friend and confidant like you. He is always muddled. , it is luck to have a reliable person like you to help you."

Chu Jue smiled slightly and said: "When making friends with people, the idea is to have a like-minded, like-minded person. I don't care whether the other party is a child of a family, or a butcher of a dog. If there is love, we can meet each other. Maybe because of a word and a thing, we can have love. I and Admiration's communication cannot be understood or framed by this world."

Hongqiao was taken aback for a moment, but she stopped answering the conversation.Sent out of Dongxiang.Hongqiao turned sideways and said, "My lord, stop, I have porters at my disposal, so I don't dare to bother you."

Chu Jue nodded and said goodbye.Hongqiao bit her lip, and she said: "My family also knows that Hongqiao is the body of fireworks and willows. I hope that I can't be a good family, and I can't be a madam. When the color fades and Mr. Wuling is gone. I will also I can only marry as a merchant's wife. If... if possible, the slave family does not want to destroy the friendship between Mr. Chu and Mr. Hu, but only asks..."

Chu Jue still spoke calmly and said, "Miss Hongqiao is so sad and modest. The girl is both talented and beautiful, as charming as green mountains and as beautiful as green lakes. It is a pleasure to have the beautiful scenery of a good city. This karma cannot be forced or wronged. "

Hong Qiao took out her handkerchief, shook her head as if covering her embarrassment, and then said with a smile: "My family has said some nonsense. Don't take offense, my lord. My family is still in a hurry, so I will leave now."

Chu Jue stretched out his hand and said, "Miss, please wait."

Hongqiao owed her a bow, returned the gift, and walked towards the sedan chair.

Chu Jue looked at Hongqiao, and said softly: "It's a pity that the willows are soft and the smoke is woven into sorrow... But if it is not like this, it will only hurt you in the end."

After sending Hongqiao off, Chu Jue turned back to Guanqingzhai, and Hu Yue naturally couldn't rest easy, and was already putting on a cotton coat and preparing to go out.It's a pity that Chu Jue caught him straight, and stretched his clothes halfway, so he couldn't wear them.Chu Jue raised his eyebrows and said, "Where does my brother want to go?"

Hu Yue turned her head and sighed, "Of course I have something to go out."

Chu Jue didn't move out of the way, and said, "I'm still sick, so I'm not allowed to go."

Hu Yue put on the padded robe angrily, buttoned it up and said, "I really have something to do. The shopkeeper Chen of the Baozi Hotel, who has been helping me paint the screen for the past month, asked me to write a post for his son Daxi. Now everyone I'm already married, so I'm sorry, and I'm going to send a pair of calligraphy and painting over."

Chu Jue closed his fan and said, "Then I will go with you."

Hu Yue glanced at him and said, "Could Brother Chu be spying on me?"

Chu Jue raised his eyebrows and said, "I was originally begging you for calligraphy and painting. Now that you missed it, isn't it impolite to give you calligraphy and painting?"

Hu Yue was at a loss for words for a while, but he didn't expect Chu Jue to take him into the army here.Chu Jue said: "I happen to have two pieces of good Tuancha here, so is Brother Yu going with me now?"

Hu Yue patted the old robe, shrugged her shoulders and nodded.In this regard, Hu Yue has always been unable to be tough.

Chu Jue was also sure of this, but he didn't use this trick lightly.In the final analysis, it was because I was reluctant to part with Hu Yue...

Thinking of this, Chu Jue sighed slightly, and said, "Sit here for a while, I'll go back and get things."

Hu Yue flicked his sleeves, thinking he would not leave, and sat in the room sulking.Chu Jue smiled slightly, turned his head and walked away, Chu Jue would feel relieved and just turn back.Walking out of an alley, I chose two good pancakes at the tea shop.Wrap it in a brocade wooden box and go back.Hu Yue had already finished packing the painting at this time, and when he was about to go out, he met Chu Jue again, and he said with a twisted corner of his mouth, "Brother Chu, you are so fast."

Seeing how he was about to let him go, Chu Jue gave him a blank look, handed him the tea box and said, "You can't hurry up. I guess my younger brother can't wait. If I'm too late, I'm afraid I'll miss my brother's time." thing."

How could Hu Yue not guess his actions, and laughed a few times.Had to walk with him.In fact, the Chen family is not far away.After turning two corners, we arrived. Master Chen of the Chen family used to be the imperial cook, but later he became lame in one foot, so he had to go out of the palace to open a restaurant and start a business.There is some money at home.The house was also well-furnished, and Hu Yue knocked on the door. Xiaosi who greeted the door recognized Hu Yue, and quickly smiled and said, "Oh, it's Mr. Hu. The master said that I haven't seen you for a long time, please come in. I will report."

Xiaosi brought Hu Yue and two into the living room, invited them to sit down, and waited for Master Chen to welcome the guests.Chu Jue frowned slightly and said, "When did Master Chen marry his son?"

Hu Yue said, "Well, it should be October [-]th, which happens to be an auspicious time."

Chu Jue said: "That day was not very long, why is there no sense of celebration in this room? Instead, it is so depressing?"

Hu Yue didn't answer, but she also noticed it.Just when the two bowed their heads and whispered.Master Chen came in from the house, bowed his head and said, "Ah, it's brother Hu. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you here to see me, old man now?"

Mr. Chen, who is about his age, knows his destiny. He used to be a cook, and he is very good at cooking.Slightly chunky and leaning on a cane.With a smile on his face, his eyes crinkled.He also seems to be a kind person.

Hu Yue and Chu Jue got up and returned the salute.Hu Yue clasped her fists and said: "I'm really sorry, I fell ill in the winter, and I agreed to my brother's invitation, but the post I wrote didn't catch up. Now that my health is a little better, I came to send some congratulatory gifts. Make up What I owe my brother."

When Mr. Chen mentioned the word post, his eyes darkened slightly, but he didn't show any other emotions. Instead, after hearing Hu Yue's speech, he quickly smiled and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome. I don't know the official next to my brother. yes……?"

Chu Jue clasped his fists and said, "I'm Hu Yue's friend. My surname is Chu, and my single name is Wang Yujue."

Master Chen hurriedly returned the gift. At this time, the servant girl served tea, and Master Chen raised his hand to signal the two to sit down.Master Chen looked at Hu Yue, hesitant to speak.

Hu Yue said with a smile: "Now that Young Master Chen has married and established a family, your old brother can feel at ease."

Unexpectedly, at this point, Master Chen was not happy at all, and the words were twisted in his throat several times, and finally he just smiled wryly: "Hey... It's okay, it's okay..."

Hu Yue looked at Chu Jue, and Hu Yue leaned over and asked, "But what happened?"

Boss Chen said: "This... hey, it's just a housework, brother, you better not ask."

Seeing what he said, Hu Yue stopped talking, drank some tea, said something, and left after giving the gifts.Of course, Mr. Chen didn't intend to keep them because of his focus on the matter.The two ate and drank a cup of tea and left.

Hu Yue said: "Do you think something happened to Mr. Chen?"

Chu Jue said: "I don't know, but I know there must be a funeral in their family, and there is some... other aura in the depression, which is very sneaky."

Hu Yue was taken aback for a moment, and he said: "Following the happy event, there is the funeral? But I haven't seen them hanging out, and there is no news about it."

Chu Jue said, "Then have you seen his son?"

Hu Yue nodded and said: "I've seen it before, a young man with a good spirit, and he looks very heroic. It doesn't look like Master Chen's own birth..."

Chu Jue twitched and said, "Brother Xian really judges people by their appearance, completely relying on face to classify them. But I don't know what position Brother Xian puts me in?"

Hu Yue squinted at Chu Jue, who still had a smile on his lips and gentle eyes.But Hu Yue didn't forget that in the Chunxiao Tent, the gentle and elegant Mr. Chu was asking endlessly.The corners of his eyes twitched at the thought of this, and he said, "A beast in clothes?"

Chu Jue closed her fan, stared and hummed.Hu Yue quickly changed his words: "Best friend, good teacher and helpful friend!"

Chu Jue opened the fan again with satisfaction, and nodded with a smile.Taking advantage of Chu Jue's mouth tilted to the side, Hu Yue stuck out her tongue and took out the flagon. Just as she was about to drink, Chu Jue grabbed it.Hu Yue looked at him aggrievedly, Chu Jue raised his head and drank all the wine, and returned the jug after drinking.Hu Yue sighed and said, "I won't die because of this mere cold, why bother, Brother Chu?"

Chu Jue said: "Because I don't want my virtuous brother to lock me out of the Zhaimen again because of the unhealed cold."

Hu Yue sighed, and Chu Jue didn't feel embarrassed when he saw that he didn't move.Then he changed the subject and asked, "What about Mr. Chen's new wife? Have you seen him?"
