I haven't felt hungry since I was tossing around in the morning. I just guessed that it might be getting late based on my feeling. Now that I'm home, try to forget that everything is as usual.Qinglian cheers up and goes to Xuanyingtang. Even if her father is no longer a blood relative, she must do her duty as a son of man.

How many evenings Qinglian stood in front of Xuanying Hall respectfully waiting for her father to return, full of reverence, but now Qinglian looked up and saw that the two places of Xuanying Hall's plaque were covered with white silk, and the corridor was decorated with yellow flowers, Qinglian was trembling with distress.Since Tong Siming died when the country was in crisis, and the Tong family shouldered heavy responsibilities, the entire Tong's mansion was hung with funeral silk except for the gate, and there was no rush to decorate the whole mansion.Coupled with the lack of manpower, it was only possible to remove the neon palace lanterns everywhere. Fortunately, the style of the mansion is quiet and quiet, and there are not many rich and colorful decorations.

But for the main hall of Tong's Mansion, how can Xuanying Hall, where the handwriting given by the former emperor hangs, be so casual. For many years, Tong Siming treated people in front of the high hall and dealt with the entire government affairs.It can be said that Xuanying hall is not only a hall, but "Xuanying" can be regarded as the connotation spirit of Tongfu. It reached its peak when Tong Siming was there, but now it is gradually declining.

Since the entire mansion is not arranged for a serious funeral, Qinglian could not escape thinking about it for a moment, but now the pale silk is shocking in front of her eyes, reminding Qinglian of the unchangeable fact that Grandpa is dead all the time.Qinglian stood unsteadily, she pushed the heavy door open with one hand on it, and what came to her face was the obscure dusty smell, with the unique smell of moss after a long rain.It's been a long time, and this door has never been opened again, since Qinglian came out of the palace again, it seems that this door of fate should be pushed open by Qinglian herself.

Everything in the hall is as usual, even in the dark, the plaque of "Guangming Dezheng" still exudes righteousness, Qinglian suddenly has an illusion, whether the white outside the door is just an appearance, why is it so thick black when entering, it is overwhelming Can't see through.The door was slightly opened, and Qinglian stood in the darkness like this, until the sky outside became dark, and her figure completely merged into the thick shadow.

Qinglian's heart was empty, as if she had spent all her energy on a decision, and finally made up her mind, but she didn't know what to do next.The matter of Qinglian stood quietly, as if hiding in a corner where no one was disturbed in this darkness, no one would harm him, and he himself did not want to take responsibility for any party.

However, Qinglian's humble wish still failed to come true, the slightly closed door was suddenly knocked open, and Qinglian's frozen thoughts were knocked open.Tong Lu supported the door frame to pant slightly, and then shouted in great surprise: "Oh, Second Young Master, I finally found you! It's so late, why are you still waiting here, Master Jing Yu can't find you, you're going crazy Dropped, hurry up, follow me."

After saying that, Tong Lu rushed into Xuanying Hall, pulled Qinglian up and walked out.However, after all, she had been standing for a long time, her body was a little stiff, Qinglian stumbled on the door and nearly fell down.Through the dim light diffused by the white silk outside, Tong Lu saw that Qinglian's plain robe was smeared with dust, and he sighed in his heart, because the child was still thinking about coming here.

So Tong Lu carefully brushed the dust off Qinglian's body with his hands, and said caringly: "My good boy, don't you look at what time it is now, it's past Haishi, don't you feel hungry? Just wait here, The master has been so busy recently that he won't be staying in the mansion for a long time. Come on, hurry up, let's go to the dining room, the mansion is not the same as before, don't hide out alone next time."

Tong Lu's loving tone made Qinglian feel as if she had passed away. After a long time, it turned out that someone at home really missed her like this.After all, Tong Lu was old, and he didn't see the mist in Qinglian's eyes. Seeing that the distressed second son seemed at a loss, he stretched out his hand and patted Qinglian's cheeks lightly: "Say 'yes' quickly, stupefied." What are you doing, I haven't seen it for a few months, it seems to have grown taller again, hehe, Qinglian will become an adult next year. Come on, hurry up, don't make your brother Yu wait anymore, he is risking the military law ran back in danger."

Qinglian's cheeks were bruised and swollen. After all, she was hurt by Tong Yi's merciless palms. Qinglian turned her face slightly, covered her sleeves and wiped away her tears in response, saying "OK", then helped Tong Lu to the dining room walk around.When I arrived at the dining room, I didn't see Tong Jingyu. There was only an exquisite food box on the rectangular table, and she looked very lonely. Unlike usual, even if there were only two or three people eating, there was a full set of tableware. There were only one bowl and one on the table. Just chopsticks.

Qinglian was a little taken aback by such an arrangement, and Tong Lu pressed Qinglian on the chair before thinking about it, and said, "Child, eat first if you're hungry. Master Jingyu brought this back from Yipinzhai specially." As Tong Lu said, he was about to uncover the lunch box, but Qinglian hurriedly got up to stop her, and said anxiously, "Let's use it together when Brother Yu comes back."

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Tong Jingyu broke in, seeing Qinglian standing in front of her intact and looking back at each other, her hanging heart finally fell back into her belly.Anger followed after reassurance, Tong Jingyu was very angry, angry at him why Qinglian didn't know how to cherish herself, but the anger was quickly suppressed by Tong Jingyu.Smiling, she walked towards Qinglian and opened the food box with her own hands.

Although Tong Jingyu concealed it well, all these changes fell into Qinglian's eyes exactly.Put a few small dishes in front of Qinglian, and said gently: "Come on, eat quickly, Gothic bought it for you, let Yipinzhai's cook cook it for you in a small stove, and now others in the capital can't eat it , have a good meal, and celebrate your return home!" Tong Jingyu personally picked up the bowl and chopsticks and handed them to Qinglian, and said with some regret: "It's still cold. Qinglian..." Tong Jingyu hesitated a little, "Don't say another word How about going out without saying a word? You will be worried, and remember to let Grandpa Tong follow you when you leave the house, okay?"

Rather than saying that Tong Jingyu was telling Qinglian her request, the tone was more like asking for Qinglian's opinion. Qinglian couldn't respond for a while, but brother Yu was still as good to herself as before, but why did this kind of kindness feel so strange? .Under Tong Jingyu's watchful eye, Qinglian began to eat. The dishes were all famous ones, but Qinglian didn't know how to eat them.

Before Qinglian was used up, Tong Jingyu got up and left. After a while, Tong Yi was going to patrol the camp. If he didn't show up again, he might really be punished by the military.Qinglian wanted to see Tong Jingyu off, but Tong Jingyu sent her back instead. She leaned on the chair and supervised a few mouthfuls of food before turning around and leaving in a hurry. This time, Qinglian didn't dare to see her off again.

Life

After Tong Jingyu left, Qinglian put down the bowls and chopsticks. After returning home, she saw her elder brother Qinglian had a lot to say, but under Tong Jingyu's burning eyes, Qinglian didn't know how to speak.Brother Yu still treats her well as usual, so good that Qinglian is not used to it, and also feels a little burdened, as if eating less food under that kind of gaze will become a sin, and I am sorry for the hard work of others.

The dishes of Yipinzhai are the best in the capital. Qinglian heard that Jiarui and Tong Jingyu both mentioned it. Qinglian has always been looking forward to one day being able to go out of the house and taste it with one or two close friends.But now when the delicacies are in front, and Tong Jingyu also said that Qinglian will have no scruples after leaving the house, and suddenly shortened the distance between dreams and reality, but Qinglian has a feeling that the phantom has been punctured, otherwise how could it be so unreal .

Qinglian was at a loss for a while, she couldn't use any more food. Even though Qinglian was the son of a wealthy family, when she recalled the desolate and decadent scene she saw in the city today, she would definitely not be able to enjoy the splendor in front of her without suffering from the sufferings of the world. Food.Qinglian raised her head and asked Tong Lu if she wanted to eat together, after all, there was still a lot of food left.

"I've eaten it. Why don't you use it anymore? How can you grow strong after eating so little?" Tong Lu said, seeing that Qinglian shook her head in silence and didn't force her anymore, she cleaned up the dishes and said to herself: "Food is hard to find in the city these days. Since you haven't finished your meal, save it for the next meal, or you'll be committing a crime."

"Then, is there anyone else in the mansion now?" Qinglian asked, but Tong Lu didn't turn around, and while tidying up, he said: "It's just the two of us, don't be afraid, the capital is now under martial law at night, not to mention thieves. The idea of ​​using Tong's House, that Tong Xi should be back soon. Since I'm done with it, I'll send you back, the master told me the day before yesterday that you're going home, so I'll clean up the house as it was before. Are you still used to it?"

Speaking of Tong Lu, he took Qinglian's arm and walked out, "I'm so confused, how can I not get used to it? Our Qinglian has finally returned home." After finally returning home, Qinglian felt a sense of relief in her heart. Relax, home, it's great that I can still stay here.

"The sky has opened its eyes. Look, the rain has finally stopped, it has stopped!" Walking out of the rain corridor, Tong Lu found that the rain that had been lingering in the capital for more than two months had finally stopped.Tong Lu was obviously very excited, dancing on the dead branches and leaves in the courtyard.Qinglian stared blankly at the sky, a faint white shadow was hidden in the corner of the pitch-black night, and the hazy moonlight seemed to be the hope that rose up just before the complete despair.

The sight in front of her made Qinglian feel a stone drop in her heart. The bright moon reappeared, and the wind and rain were about to stop.Is it because he stayed in this land, or did the emperor personally offer sacrifices to heaven and apologize and finally moved the gods?Qinglian doesn't want to think too much, because as long as all the things related to Jia Rui appear in her mind, Qinglian will feel inexplicably restless.Regardless of the situation, it would be best if the rain stopped, because Qinglian had already decided in her heart that she would definitely leave this land after the previous turmoil subsided this time.

Tong Lu sent Qinglian to Qingyun Pavilion, and took care of her uneasy: "My child, the hot water is on the stove, be careful when using it, and go to bed early, the master will not go home tonight, remember to sleep a little longer tomorrow. Tomorrow morning I'll come and serve, remember, don't
