Cold and warm depend on each other

The rain in the middle of the night moistened the early morning in the capital, the window sills on all sides of the inn lobby were open, and there was a bit of water vapor on the edge of the table near the window.A few pots of green plants are hung under the eaves of the corridor. It is very pleasing to watch after the drizzle.

Cao Youqi took Liu Qingqing's hand and walked into the living room, greeted his senior brothers and sisters, seeing that the place was too small to sit down, he simply opened a new table beside him.

Chen Hao quit and yelled to put the table together, Cao Youqi didn't bother to talk to him: "You are the only one who is busy. Don't go!"

"We don't care if you don't come over, just come and have a table with us." Chen Hao smiled and winked: "Su Zhe is sitting with us, how can Miss Liu not come?"

This sentence was meant as a joke, but it made everyone at the table change their expressions.

After a long while, Xue Wanxiang put down her chopsticks, barely raised the corners of her mouth and smiled a little: "I'm full. Brothers, take your time." She moved the chair back a little, nodded slightly, and walked towards the stairs.

Su Zhe glared at Chen Hao, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and hurried upstairs.

The few senior brothers didn't know why, and looked at each other in blank dismay.Suddenly Liu Qingqing said softly: "I didn't sleep well last night, I don't have much appetite, I'll go up and rest for a while."

Cao Youqi's heart skipped a beat, and he grabbed her hand.Liu Qingqing broke away from her sideways, rushed to the Junshan faction to salute, and retreated from the table.

Chen Hao looked at Cao Youqi and glared at him, and followed upstairs without saying a word.He rubbed his neck and asked belatedly, "Do you feel that the atmosphere between these little girls seems weird?"

Su Zhe walked fast, halfway up the stairs stopped Xue Wanxiang, and refused to let go of her catkin, Xue Wanxiang was not really annoyed with her, the two of them stumbled back to the room.

Everything in the guest house should be like that.Su Zhe looked at Xue Wanxiang's face, hesitantly rubbed against her hand, Xue Wanxiang turned his back and didn't want to talk to her.Su Zhe sighed, and suddenly saw that the cuffs were torn, it was the outer shirt he was wearing by the Chilong River.Thinking back then that the things in my heart were as humble as dust, I only hope that one day I will see the pity, she and her can stay together, even if there are many difficulties and dangers, she will be happy.Now that she is really beautiful, how could she be willing to make her sad.

Xue Wanxiang stood quietly for a while, before Su Zhe came to coax her, she was inevitably aggrieved.Looking back, she saw Su Zhe lowered her head, staring at the sleeve in a daze. She followed her line of sight and usually saw the cuff.Bits of emotions from the time at the Riverside Inn slowly came to my mind.She thought of the beauty and loss, expectations and determination of that night, when she could only hope to be with her wholeheartedly, she even thought about wandering the world with her, as long as she could break free from the shackles of the marriage contract, she would not hesitate to go through the wind and rain in this life.

That being the case, why hurt each other?Su Zhe had already explained to her that she and Liu Qingqing had nothing else to do.Why should she be angry about it.

"you……"

"you……"

The two spoke almost at the same time, looking at each other.Su Zhe was sitting on the chair, Xue Wanxiang stepped forward to touch her face, rubbed her earlobe again, and then smiled slowly: "Aren't you stupid. Don't you mend the sleeves if they are torn? After wearing them for so long."

Su Zhe raised his head with innocent eyes.

Xue Wanxiang dug out a sewing kit from her baggage, and looked back to see that she was still sitting there stupidly. "Change the clothes, and I'll sew them for you."

The exact same words, completely changed the state of mind.Su Zhe bent his eyes, obediently stretched his arms and took off his coat, and saw Xue Wanxiang holding a needle and thread, and suddenly said: "Your hand injury is not healed yet. I will do it myself."

"Would you?" She shot her a look.I took the robe and sewed it carefully, stitch by stitch, like the longing of these days.

The early spring sunlight shone obliquely in, illuminating her gentle and soft eyebrows, casting her profile with a fine layer of thin gold.Su Zhe was full of joy and pity, and was blessed to the heart. She suddenly realized that whether she was poor or rich in this life, no matter what ups and downs she had to go through, she would always be with her.

Not want, but must!

After Xue Wanxiang finished mending the cuffs, Su Zhe stood beside the square table with his arms outstretched. Xue Wanxiang waited for her to put on the outer robe, and carefully smoothed the waist lapel with lowered eyes.

Su Zhe was silent for a moment, as if saying a very ordinary sentence, he said softly: "Wan Xiang, you and I go back to Junshan and meet my master and mother, how about it?"

Xue Wanxiang gave a slight pause to the hand that was straightening her lapel, looked up to see Su Zhe's loving gaze, and realized the meaning of this sentence, her cheeks were instantly blush, she bit her lip, a little bit ashamed Attention, the drooping eyelashes trembled slightly.

Su Zhe clearly saw the blush spreading from Xue Wanxiang's cheeks to her fair neck. She felt warm in her heart and opened her arms to hug her: "Come back with me. I want you to go back with me, okay?"

Cao Youqi chased Liu Qingqing up to the third floor, and the carved door slowly closed in front of her. She was startled, fearing that she would be turned away, so she took a few steps to follow.Fortunately, Liu Qingqing didn't bother, the door was not locked, she raised her hand, and the door opened.

The upper room of Tianzi No. [-] has excellent lighting, bright light shines in through the window paper, and the room is bright.Liu Qingqing wore a long autumn water-colored dress, her back was long and her hair reached her waist, and she stood alone in the middle of the room. In Cao Youqi's eyes, she felt that the surrounding scenery was overshadowed.

The light golden morning light embellished her dress with colorful colors. Standing at the head of the closed door, Cao Youqi stared at her with inexplicable pain in his heart. "Sister Liu..."

Liu Qingqing turned her head when she heard the sound, her eyes narrowed, and she smiled faintly: "Why are you back?"

"Sister Liu, Brother Chen is talking nonsense. Everyone on Junshan knows that he is famous for gossip. You should ignore him."

"I know. I ignored him." Liu Qingqing was kind-hearted, with wide sleeves like water, spread out around her body. "I'm just a little tired. Come up and rest for a while. Go play. Don't bother me." She raised her sleeves to cover her cheeks, as if yawning thinly.

Cao Youqi hesitated for a moment, stepped forward to say something, Liu Qingqing turned around inadvertently, and leaned on the imperial concubine's couch with a soft pillow on her side.

"I'll go get some breakfast, you'll wake up and eat later." Cao Youqi stood for a while while speaking, but Liu Qingqing didn't answer, and she didn't know if she was asleep.

The sound of the door opening and closing came, but Liu Qingqing did not open her eyes.The misty drops of water stayed in the corner of the eyes for a moment, and then slid down on the jade pillow, cool and silent.

Xiaoxiao heard that the young lady had returned to the room, and told the little girl to wash the clothes she changed last night, and went to the door of the upper room by herself, and knocked on the door.

When she opened the door and entered, only her young lady was lying on the imperial concubine couch in the room. She walked lightly to the clothes hanger, took off a soft fur wind collar, and put it on the young lady.

Liu Qingqing was not asleep, so she knew it was Xiaoxiao by hearing her voice.She opened her eyes and closed the wind collar.Seeing her red eye circles, Xiaoxiao was taken aback, and hurriedly asked her what happened.

She has been by Liu Qingqing's side since she was ten years old, and now she is sixteen or seventeen years old. If Liu Qingqing hadn't protected her, she would have been forced to pick up guests by the bustard two years ago.To her, Liu Qingqing is a lady and even a benefactor.

The two really got to know each other very well, Liu Qingqing didn't hide from her, and slowly talked about what happened in the lobby downstairs just now.After hearing this, Xiaoxiao comforted her: "A few days ago we kept calling Mr. Su my aunt, but Chen Shaoxia must have been joking casually, why should Miss take it to heart."

Liu Qingqing smiled lightly, with a look of indifference that could see through the world, but it was hard to hide her natural charm. "I know he has no intentions, just joking. It's just that Ms. Xue is there too. If it were Ms. Xue, the brothers from the Junshan faction would not make fun of it. Tell me, why?"

Xiaoxiao naturally knew why.She lowered her head, hiding her dim eyes.

Liu Qingqing fiddled with a jade bracelet on her wrist, still smiling, with a sad wound in her smile: "It's just because we are brothel girls. We can make fun of you wantonly. The fixed thoughts of the world are the imprints on you and me. If you live in a brothel every day, you will be a bad person all your life."

"Perhaps Miss Cao is different. The reason why Miss Cao came here after thousands of miles is because she is different." Xiaoxiao poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her lady.

Speaking of Cao Youqi, Liu Qingqing's eyes finally brightened a little. She thought of the kiss they hugged in their arms last night, so silly, she would just bite her lips and hold on, like a child who hadn't grown up. Little Doll.

"She is different. But no matter how different, she is just a child. A 17-year-old girl, who can you expect her to be responsible for?"

Hearing these words, Xiaoxiao's heart beat a small drum. She held back, but couldn't hold back, and asked anxiously: "Last night... last night..."

"What are you thinking about? She kissed me last night. There is nothing else going on." Liu Qingqing glanced at her with her phoenix eyes.While talking, he raised the teacup and took a sip of tea, pretending that the crimson color on his face was reddened by the tea smoke.

Cao Youqi's first kiss was not her first.

"In two days, people from the Junshan faction will set off, so let's set off too." While putting down the teacup, Liu Qingqing also concealed her emotions.

Xiaoxiao was startled for a moment, then subconsciously asked: "Aren't we going with Miss Cao?"

"Where are you going? Go back to Junshan with her?" Liu Qingqing smiled self-deprecatingly: "What's the matter with a girl who wants to bring a brothel girl home. I can't bear the questioning of her parents. I can't bear the cold eyes of the world."

"That……"

"Let's go away..."

"But miss! You obviously like her very much!" Xiaoxiao wanted to stomp her feet anxiously.

Liu Qingqing hugged her wind collar and stopped talking.

Just like a scandalous dream, she once chased after it.She was still able to leave before she was injured.So let's go...

Xiaoxiao took the teacup, the tea was already slightly cold.She sighed inwardly.Miss and Miss Cao, after all, is the fate too shallow?

She didn't notice that she didn't close the door when she walked into the room just now, the hollow carved door is half open, Cao Youqi is leaning against the door, holding a food box in her arms, there are two bowls of Chinese yam in the food box Barley porridge, a dish of seasonal side dishes.The porridge was still warm, but her heart was ups and downs.The voices in the room fell silent, and her bright eyes gradually became more thoughtful.
