box of hearts

Chapter 149 Congratulations to the Groom (19)
Qingtian felt a hard lump on her lower abdomen, which made her whole body go numb, but she bumped into another hard object under her waist.She was busy, and quickly stabilized something, "Slow down, it will be returned tomorrow, and it will be broken."

Qi She raised her eyelids half an inch, and saw Qing Tian, ​​who was pressed against the edge of the marble desk by her legs, sweeping her cheeks redly, her eyelashes dangling, and pushing the octagonal candle holder on the desk far away, protecting the ten-pointed candles stacked in the residence. To the shaft cloth.He pointed with his chin, "You picked these?"

"Ah."

"How much is it?"

"Gold two, 300 taels." The right hand wearing a small glazed ring slid towards the cloth, reluctantly.

Qi She laughed, and stroked Qingtian's beautiful forehead with a horizontal hand, "Let's keep it, Duan Xiaonan can sell two to three hundred gold for a few words, and I can afford it for your third brother. But first Don't cut the clothes, put them at the bottom of the box, and talk about them after a while."

Qing Tian was overjoyed immediately, but only smiled a little, "Third brother said yes, dare I say no?"

"Hey, you are so honest and blunt, you don't refuse at all, you stay if you say you want to stay?"

"I really like it." Fingers passed across, and there was a golden emerald between the fingers, "Look, how beautiful..."

"Well, beautiful and beautiful." His eyes were not on the material of the clothes, but on Qingtian's radiant face, and he touched her waist with his hands and tugged, muttering frivolously: "I said you will What's the button on this sweat towel? Why is it so——, hiss—"

"Hey, don't pull it, don't——, don't pull it, don't pull it! I, ah! The skirt! The skirt is torn by you!"

"Do it again, do it again, isn't this the newly bought material?"

"Wouldn't it be impossible to wear it?"

"You only have this skirt?"

"This one is my favourite!"

"Isn't your favorite one the one from yesterday?"

"Tomorrow's one is my favorite right now!"

……

Fragments and fragments of protracted and floating time passed, and the already messy small hall became even more messy: Xizi, Shouzi, peonies, peonies, bamboos, pine cones, flowing clouds, sea water, makeup flowers, stacked flowers, blooming flowers , Dark flowers, group flowers, whole branches, folded branches, single flowers, ball flowers... Layers of patterns and colors are rolling and mixed, and every inch of the floor is covered with cloths that are more expensive than gold.Half-wrapped and half-opened in between are two naked human bodies except for their sweaty skin; they seem to be motionless, but at the subtle point of interdependence, there is some extremely dense entanglement.

This is between a man and a woman, when the gushing desire is gone, the same tenderness and nostalgia are rarely left behind.

The next day, Qi She asked the housekeeper to arrange a casual service and escort Qingtian to the Bixia Yuanjun Temple outside You'anmen.Bixia Yuanjun is a celestial fairy and jade girl, who commands the soldiers of the Yuefu and looks after the good and evil in the world. She is commonly known as the Empress of Mount Tai, and the shrine is called the Empress Temple.The Niangniang Temple in the capital is divided into east, west, north and south tops. The Caoqiao is called the middle top, and the incense is the most prosperous.In the past two years, Qingtian seldom went out, because he was greedy to see the world.Unknowingly, the green sedan chair with tassels hanging from all sides came to the gate of Yuanjun Temple.The horses, carriages and sedan chairs are already full, and there are luxurious embroidered daughters everywhere, with gorgeous makeup and beautiful clothes, and they are fluttering slowly.

Amidst the sound of people cheering and horses shouting, there was a sudden silence, and then a buzzing commotion.It turned out that a group of idle literati in Beijing gathered on high places and used stones as a foothold, neither for the summit nor for the meeting, but just for peeping at the beauty and appearance of the female relatives of various families.They praised the beautiful as gods, and degraded the ugly as ghosts when they saw the beautiful. The Koryo paper fans were all turned into examiners to judge the real talents.Amidst the hustle and bustle, there were two young ladies who could be regarded as stunningly beautiful, one gorgeous and the other handsome, and everyone was arguing with each other. For the sake of fairness, one was only the second place and the other was the candidate, leaving the number one spot empty-handed.

At this time, I saw a young lady from an unknown family slowly approaching among the many servants: wearing a red gold crown of broken treasures, wearing a rouge-colored long gown with glittering beads, a milky white gauze skirt, and a milky white sash tied around the waist, It has a long waist and a slender body, but it is not enchanting. It is just like a waist-pinch bottle in the hands of Guanyin. The clean dew in the bottle is a pair of flowing eyes.The beauty of a fat, swallow-thin woman becomes absolute at this moment, equating to a supreme beauty with no power, which kills every ordinary person and becomes a vassal to the north.All the sons outside the Niangniang Temple had no objection, and praised in unison: "'The peony in front of the court is invincible, and the hibiscus in the pool is pure and unfeeling. Only the peony is really beautiful, and the capital is moving when it blooms.'[18] The tripod armor is complete, This is the No. [-] pick on today's flower list!"

Therefore, in the heights between the two sides of the road, "No. [-] Scholar" and "No. [-] Scholar" can be heard endlessly.A little woman who was stepping out of the temple heard it, and she couldn't help but smiled and said to her side: "How come so many people recognize that you are the number one scholar?"

The sunlight shot down from the overhanging eaves on the top of the hall, illuminating the face that appeared later: Chu Chuyu's face, dragon and phoenix posture——Qiao Yun smiled slightly.He shook off the peach silk bamboo fan in his hand to shield his wife Zhang Ruijiao from the scorching sun, "Little fool, this champion is not that champion, this is a group of rascals who are judging ladies and gentlemen from various families and fighting for beauty. Look. , that is what they call the 'No. [-] Scholar'."

The couple looked at the spot where everyone was looking at, and saw a dozen slender and beautiful maidservants hugging each other. Among them, a maidservant embraced a very eye-catching snow-white and huge one-eyed Persian cat. But the woman seemed impatient to hear the frivolous words, and covered her forehead with a silk fan with one hand, as if sealing a giant essay of a talented scholar, hiding the beauty's face.

Zhang Ruijiao, whose appetite was whetted, pulled her husband to stand still, smiling innocently.Qiao Yunze's expression suddenly became weird, all noises became blurred, he only heard his own heartbeat, boom!Boom!Bumping violently in the chest, until the shoulder was also hit by someone, "What about you, you don't have eyes? Get out of the way!"——It was the guard who cleared the way for the noble lady.

Zhang Rui is the daughter of Shangshu, seeing her husband suffer from such cruelty, she can't help but get angry.Three or five of the Zhang family's round-armed and thick-waisted entourage also immediately stepped forward, not to be outdone, and pushed and shoved together, "What are you doing? You ran into our young lady, you can't bear it and walk around!"

Seeing that the families on both sides had already quarreled, even the white cat showed its claws and screamed "Hoo Hoo", the lady's right hand moved, and the gold-plated armor on her hand flashed several circles. Cold light, under Qiao Yunze's gaze, removed the round moon fan in front of his face.The surroundings were filled with voices of "No. [-] Scholar". In front of the threshold of the temple, the No. [-] man stared at the No. [-] woman without blinking, and the No. [-] woman opened her whole self into a pair of eyes behind a fan.

-

The eyelashes are fluffy, the eyes are curved, and the smile is like this, which also provokes the smiles of others.

"Look, I said you are holding back, it's really different when you go out." With the flickering red candles, Qi She wiped his hands and face among several maids, looked at Qingtian and smiled, and handed it to her. A bad sparrow in front of his nose shook his head again and again, "Eat it yourself, I've eaten it."

Qing Tian retracted his chopsticks, leaned his elbows on the flower pear food table, and bit the chopsticks on his front teeth, "I ran into a man in the temple today."

"Huh?" He smiled and listened quietly.

Qingtian was still smiling all the time, looking at Qi She, calling another name: "Qiao, Yun, Ze."

Qi She was stunned for a moment, then took a second look at her face, smiled coldly, took two big steps, picked up a cup of cold tea and poured it on his neck, swished it in his mouth, and spat on the enamel on the ground with a "pooh" Spray it in the bowl.He refused to bend his waist even half an inch, and the water didn't splash much, probably because his face was directly pulled to the ground.

When the other party got so angry, Qingtian smiled even more with his eyes shining, "You don't want to know how I feel?"

"How can you feel it?" He came from a distance of ten feet away with a stalk in his neck, "'Lang came on a bamboo horse, went around the bed to grow green plums, lived together in Changgan, and the two little ones had no doubts'[19]. I thought You should avoid Zhuangyuan Lang, but now it seems that you forget to eat but not to fight. Looking at your face, your mouth is almost grinning to the bottom of your ears. If you look at it from a distance, you think you are holding a small whitebait Son."

Qingtian's starry eyes were hazy, and with a wave of the two chopsticks, she waved away the people on the left and right like a magic wand, but her smile stuck to her face like a magic barrier, and she slowly uttered one word after another: "That's right." , 'Childhood sweetheart, childhood sweetheart'. With that person, I can be so simple and happy, and it is the only simplicity and happiness I have in that hell on earth. But then, everything changed overnight, and the only thing that has supported me for so many years Little things next to each other are gone, and all the happiness in memory has turned into pain. The happier I used to be, the more painful it is in front of me. That person took all the years I passed, every day, every moment Moment, it's all ruined. Then, here you come."

She got off the couch lightly, approached him step by step, "With you, I seldom think about the past, I can't think about it, and I don't want to think about it. But I know those things will always be there. When I meet that person, I will think of it all at once. Today, I saw him, him and his wife, the Miss Zhang family. When I looked at the two of them, I suddenly felt as if I was looking at myself and him— ——The me and him back then, so many things and feelings, I really remembered all of them at once. It doesn’t hurt either. I told you earlier that Qiao Yunze has become a stranger to me, and the one in my head—” Qingtian poked his forehead with his fingertips, then opened his hand , smiled and circled Qi She's waist, and looked up at him with shining eyes, "Third brother, with you protecting me, he can never hurt me again." She bowed her head into his heart, and closed her eyes He raised his eyes and smiled lowly, "It's really all healed, not even a scar left."
