Rebirth Night Expedition Far River

Chapter 71

In spring, the clouds reflect the green, and the green grass stretches across the sky.

Outside the window, the mountains in the distance look more green after the rain.

The man sat quietly in front of the desk, the cool breeze blew the paper in his hand, and the sunshine after the rain hit his clear and warm eyebrows, which was gentle and heart-warming.

Wen Jiang walked in from the outside and stared blankly for a while, unwilling to break such a peaceful and gentle atmosphere.

On the contrary, Xie Zheng raised his head and looked over as if he sensed it, and raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why didn't you go shopping with A Song and the others?"

Wen Jiang walked towards him, stood still in front of the desk, looked down, his face slightly embarrassed: "Are you looking at this?"

"Ah?" Xie Zheng reacted in a daze, squeezed a few pages of paper in his hand and said with a smile: "I saw it scattered on the table, I wanted to tidy it up for you, but once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down."

Wen Jiang scratched his head: "I just wrote it for fun."

What Xie Zheng is reading now is the travel notes that Wen Jiang started to write a few days ago. He had this idea before, but he has been too lazy to write, and the brush is not used to it, so it is too laborious to write.

"The writing is very good. It describes the local conditions and customs of various places in a comprehensive and vivid way, which is really attractive."

"Really?" Wen Jiang's eyes lit up.

Xie Zheng nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes." Putting the few pages of paper in his hands aside, Xie Zheng looked at Wen Jiang and said, "But I see that your last sentence says 'Lu Cong is white tonight, the moon is the hometown of Ming ', are you, homesick?"

Wen Jiang was taken aback for a moment, and sighed: "Indeed, I have been out for half a year. Although I often communicate with my family by letters, I really want to go back and have a look." He asked Xie Zheng: "Brother Xie, we How many more days are you going to stay here??"

Xie Zheng suggested: "I have basically understood the matter of Meng Ci, so why don't I accompany you back first, and let Xiao Shan and Shen Song stay with Abo."

Wen Jiang was overjoyed immediately: "Are you serious, Brother Xie, do you want to go back with me?"

Xie Zheng pulled him in front of him and said in a warm voice: "Of course it is true. Wherever you go in the future, I will definitely go with you. Why, do you want to be irresponsible after the night before?" He also showed an expression of 'you are a heartless man', which made Wen Jiang open his mouth wide, speechless for a long time.

On the contrary, Xie Zheng burst into laughter when he saw him stunned, and then exerted force on his hand. When Wen Jiang came to his senses, he was already sitting on Xie Zheng's lap, facing him, and his face flushed immediately. Put your hands on his chest: "Hey!"

I always feel that since that night, Xie Zheng's whole style of painting has changed, he must have not woken up yet!

"Don't worry, no one will break into the study." Especially when he knew that both of us were in the room, Xie Zheng silently added a sentence in his heart, but he would not say this sentence, it is really Wen Jiang It seems bold, but in fact it is very shy in this respect.

Wen Jiang was speechless: "That's not what I said, forget it." Although he was embarrassed, Wen Jiang actually liked to stick close to Xie Zheng like this in his heart. After thinking about it, no one would come in at this time, so he went Put your hands down and rest your chin on Xie Zheng's shoulder. "Then when shall we go back?"

Xie Zheng hugged him: "Listen to you."

"How about going back before the Dragon Boat Festival?" Wen Jiang lazily said, his whole body simply spread out on Xie Zheng.

Xie Zheng stroked his hair, and said softly: "Okay, then we will leave in the middle of May, and we can go back after walking for half a month, and we don't have to rush too much."

Wen Jiang let out an 'hmm' and said nothing.

Xie Zheng tilted his head and rubbed his face: "What?"

"It's okay, it's just that I suddenly feel too lazy to move." Wen Jiang said.

"Are you bored?"

Wen Jiang thought for a while, then nodded: "A little bit."

Just as Xie Zheng was about to say something, Wen Jiang suddenly exclaimed: "Ah!"

"what happened?"

"I remembered one thing." Wen Jiang sat up straight suddenly, but when he heard Xie Zheng snort, he instantly remembered the posture he and the other party were in now, and was embarrassed: "Uh, are you okay? "

Xie Zheng smiled wryly: "Fortunately, you just remembered something."

Wen Jiang chuckled, and after thinking about the words in his mind for a while, he hesitated and said, "Actually, I just have a conjecture, let's say it first, it's just a guess!"

"Tell me and listen." Xie Zheng laughed seeing his serious look.

Wen Jiang stroked his chin and said, "That's right, do you feel that something is wrong between Lu Ping and Meng Ci?"

Xie Zheng was taken aback, but he really didn't expect him to ask this, so he couldn't help laughing: "Are you addicted to being a matchmaker?"

Wen Jiang stared at him: "Just tell me if you feel something is wrong."

Xie Zheng shook his head: "I'm familiar with Lu Ping, but Meng Ci doesn't know each other very well, and I haven't seen them get along much. Where did you draw that conclusion?"

"That's it, it's just a feeling." Wen Jiang thought in his heart, did he want to say that it was the induction between the same kind?What's more, it's just his random guess now. After thinking about it, he skipped this topic first: "Don't talk about it, I probably thought too much. Let's talk about going home. Then you Come out with me, I want to buy some gifts for my uncle, brother and Huaisheng to take back."

Xie Zheng agreed, and the two of them skipped the question just now and are not discussing it.

After lunch, I heard that Wen Jiang and Xie Zheng were going out. Shen Song, who had already walked around with Shen Bai in the morning, wanted to follow, but Shen Bai took him directly to the study to write big characters. , pouting his mouth unhappy, kept pulling Wen Jiang and refusing to let go, and Wen Jiang had a hard time coaxing him before following Shen Bai.

Before Shen Bai left, he asked if he needed someone to lead the way. Wen Jiang quickly waved his hands, expressing that he preferred to wander around by himself.So the two of them went out together.

However, I didn't see Lu Ping and Meng Ci during the meal. Wen Jiang couldn't help asking. Shen Bai only said that Lu Ping had gone out for something, and Meng Ci's whereabouts were never within the scope of notifying Shen Bai, so he Not sure either.

Wen Jiang then remembered what he told Xie Zheng in the morning again, turned his head and glanced at Xie Zheng, the other party could see what he was thinking at a glance, Wen Jiang blinked at him, he smiled helplessly and pulled his hand away Hand: "Let's go."

After staying in the mansion for a few days, it rained again, the air outside was very fresh and pleasant, and the ground was even covered with fallen flowers.

But this does not prevent the people of Huai'an from happily continuing the aftermath of the Apricot Blossom Festival.

There are still many around you wearing robes with apricot flowers embroidered on the sleeves, and little girls with baskets full of apricot flowers, stopping you on the street, selling apricot flowers to you, and giving you sweet smiles and words of blessing .

"The city of Huai'an is filled with a sweet smell now." Wen Jiang said with a smile.

Xie Zhengen gave a cry, but he still held his hand and did not let go.

There were also people who kept looking over on the road, seeing the handsome young man, the handsome man, and the two of them walking side by side, it was pleasing to the eye. Some girls couldn't help but want to step forward, but when they saw their hands holding each other, they stopped. down the steps.

Speaking of this, I have to say that because it is very close to Kyoto, and Kyoto has always been a masculine style, the people's acceptance of this aspect is much higher than other places except the southeast coast.

This is also the reason why Xie Zhenggan is so open and aboveboard, so close to Wen Jiang outside without any disguise.

"Brother Xie, let's go buy some apricot flowers too. I thought of bringing something back for my uncle and the others." Wen Jiang patted his forehead and said.

Xie Zheng looked down at him: "Are you going to make apricot blossom wine?"

Wen Jiang nodded: "Well, yes, what do you think?"

"That's a good idea. I wonder if I have the honor to taste it before them?" Xie Zheng asked with a smile.

"Of course! I'm still waiting for your evaluation. Hehe—huh? That's not—"

Xie Zheng followed Wen Jiang's staring gaze, also slightly startled.

In the depths of the alley not far away, a man was pressing on another man, as if he was pulling or arguing, but the postures of the two were really subtle, and after a while, the one who was pressed The man suddenly took out an apricot flower from behind, and stuffed it into the arms of the man who was holding him down. The man seemed to be startled by his action, and let him go, and the person who was held down stepped away and walked out quickly. come.

When they met each other, Xie Zheng and Wen Jiang were stunned.

Because the person who came was none other than Meng Ci, one of the protagonists they talked about before.

Then, the person who is still in the alley and chased out at this moment, who looks familiar, is naturally another protagonist——Lu Ping.

I can't complain that these two people are not at the dinner table at noon, and the two of them came here in pairs to meet the occasion, and it was still the scene of the Xinghua Festival.

Wen Jiang and Xie Zheng looked at each other, and both laughed at the same time: "Look, I'll just say that my intuition is right."

"Yeah, you are the best." Xie Zheng shook his head and laughed endlessly: "Could it be, Xiaoqi, you really have the potential to be a matchmaker?" He thought deeply.

"No, it's just that I discovered their JQ overflowing all over the floor!" Wen Jiang retorted.

"I said—" A frivolous voice came, with a somewhat helpless tone: "Isn't it good for you to talk about me in front of me?"

Wen Jiang turned his head, and Meng Ci, who was dressed in a cool white shirt, stood in front of the two with his arms folded, with a smile on his face and a smile on his face.

"That's right, we didn't talk about you behind your back." Wen Jiang spread his hands and smiled again: "But I really didn't expect you to be so direct, Brother Meng. By the way, did you scare Brother Lu? I don’t think he dared to come over.”

Meng Ci glanced back, snorted softly and said, "Leave him alone, anyway, he has already accepted my flowers."

Wen Jiang thought in his heart, obviously you forced it on others, okay?

"Why, the two of you also come out to celebrate the festival? No, you should not celebrate this festival now." Meng Ci said with a sly smile.

"Well, of course I don't need to celebrate this festival, but I think that someone might have to celebrate it again next year." Wen Jiang's anti-general said: "I'm here to buy some special products or something, and I'm going to give them to you." Uncle take it back."

"Are you leaving?" Meng Ci immediately caught the point.

"Mr. Xie, are you leaving?" Lu Ping, who had been standing far away and hesitated to come over, heard this, hurriedly stepped forward to ask, but deliberately ignored Meng Ci and did not meet his gaze.

Wen Jiang pursed his lips happily at Meng Ci, and Meng Ci shrugged to express his indifference.

Xie Zheng nodded: "I will stay for a while, and then I will take Xiao Qi back to his hometown, and Ah Song and Xiao Shan will stay here."

Lu Ping breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right, I thought—the young master has missed you for a long time, if you leave, he will be lonely again."

Meng Ci said from the side: "I don't think the county magistrate is lonely. The pigeons in the yard are flying very frequently. One trip a day is not enough."

"Mengci!" Lu Ping scolded.

Wen Jiang wondered: "Whose Feige sent the letter?" Elder Lu and Xie Zheng are now taking care of the affairs of the teaching center, and Shen Bai has basically let go of it, so where did the "Flying Letter" come from? of?It is so frequent once a day. You must know that sending letters in ancient times is not as convenient and fast as in modern times. It takes a lot of manpower and material resources.

Lu Ping said embarrassingly: "This is the young master's private matter, and the subordinates don't know it very well."

Wen Jiang looked at Xie Zheng, Xie Zheng frowned slightly, then shook his head again, Wen Jiang stopped asking.

"Where are you going, do you need me to show you the way?" Meng Ci asked.

"Let's stroll around casually, you are busy with your work." Wen Jiang waved his hand.

Meng Ci took his leave and left. Lu Ping stood there for a while and then chased after him.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Wen Jiang sighed and said, "At first I thought it would be a protracted battle, but before the fight started, one side had surrendered."

Xie Zheng laughed: "What kind of metaphor are you talking about?"

Wen Jiang choked, thinking of something in an instant, and suddenly his whole body felt bad.

He, yourself, complete, complete, no, attention, attention, arrived, just said something colorful? !
