Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 526 The Kindness of Women
The boat is not big but it is exquisitely made.

The cabin is covered with mats woven with rushes, which are breathable, fragrant, and soft. Sitting on them will feel comfortable even without cushions.

In the cabin, apart from a low table, there is only a long low table for drinking, soft pillows and cushions.

On the low table, there is an incense burner at the moment. The fragrance of Jiangzhen incense wafts out from the incense burner, which makes people feel refreshed.

Although the temperament of the person in front of him has changed, his love for Jiang Zhenxiang has not changed.

There are windows on both sides of the cabin, and when the wind passes by, the gauze curtains on the windows are blown up, making the outside scene clearer.

Zuo Fu leaned on the soft pillow, hearing his words, there was a glimmer of light in his black and white eyes, and after a long silence, he said softly: "I have dragged you down."

"Ah."

Sun Xunting chuckled, "It's just that I didn't ask for the marriage, and I have such a close relationship with you, do you think I will be better off? Xu Han was forced into a woman, not to mention jealous, but it really hurt him."

He leaned on the soft pillow as he said, looked at Zuo Fu and said: "At least I don't have to suffer this crime, marrying someone I don't like, I might as well be an eunuch."

"puff."

Zuo Fu was amused by his words, "Being a eunuch? Wouldn't that kill you? How can Marquis An Shun, who is rich and rich, live a life of pure heart and few desires?"

"It's been several years."

He laughed at himself, "Suddenly it's boring, maybe you played a trick on me."

"Stop saying such nasty words."

Zuo Fu glared at him, but his face was a little hot.

There was a bit of seriousness in this sentence, she heard it, and felt a sense of unease.Avoiding his gaze, he looked out the window and said, "I ate all those specialties."

After a pause, he added: "The dumpling made of wormwood is my favorite."

He laughed, feeling happy both physically and mentally because of her words, "What else do you like to eat?"

"The glutinous rice cake is also very good, but it is a bit extravagant and wasteful. Every time it is delivered, it has to be iced with saltpeter and preserved along the way."

"The Tang emperor smiled for the noble concubine and took lychees from Qiongzhou. I smiled for the Bomei, and it is not too much to get some saltpeter to lighten the ice."

After finishing speaking, he pursed his lips and smiled, "After all, what I spend is not the national money, but my own money."

"Speaking of beauties and the world, the Emperor Tang finally gave up on beauties."

Zuo Fu pursed his lips, and there was a hint of sarcasm hanging from the corner of his mouth, "The man is so lucky, why is the noble concubine?"

"But there are also people who want beauty but not country, so what's the point?"

He took a sip of his wine and said lightly, "Whether it's good or not depends on the person."

The atmosphere became silent.

Zuo Fu looked out of the window, his eyes became dim.

He looked at her with secret jealousy.

She would put her hand on her and come here in a woman's attire, which clearly shows that her feelings for the emperor are also unusual, perhaps beyond the so-called brother-sister relationship.

But there was clearly resentment in the two sentences just now.

This is a woman's grievance against a man, not just the simple fact that the king has betrayed the minister.

It's just that after thinking that there is absolutely no possibility for the two of them, I feel a little more relaxed.

At least, he is no different from himself, he is also unable to get what he wants, unable to love, and hard to get when he is thirsty.

"Eat something?"

He pushed the plate on the counter table, "The wild plums are eating right now, would you like to try it?"

Zuo Fu glanced at it, and said: "Ou Li was born in the north, your ability is not small."

"Ha ha."

Sun Xunting smiled, "Money can turn ghosts around, can't it?"

Zuo Fu got up slightly, picked up a oleoli, and smiled lightly, "It's a good thing, you can't miss it."

Euryale has a high calcium content and is easy to absorb. It has the reputation of high-calcium fruit, and it is also a very high-end fruit even in later generations.It looks like a cherry, but Zuofu thinks it tastes much better than a cherry.

After eating a few oleoli, he leaned lazily on the soft pillow again, looked at the boats coming and going outside the window, and heard the sound of strings and bamboos floating in the boat, and suddenly said: "Is it deserted when it's just you and me drinking wine?" Is there a waiter on this Qinhuai painting boat?"

Sun Xunyu was stunned there.

He looked at Zuo Fu, seeing her lazy but with a trace of determination, he was slightly absent-minded.

After a long time, he said: "I'm afraid I will disappoint you, this is a place for men to have fun."

After a pause, he said again: "Do you have to do this?"

"No one is perfect, if you don't have any hobbies, wouldn't it appear that you have ulterior motives?"

"Is it not enough for me to block you?"

His gaze sharpened immediately, "Is it worth ruining your reputation for a ridiculous reason?"

"Where did I get my reputation?"

Zuo Fu stretched out his hand, raised the wine cup, and drank it with his head up, with a mocking smile on his lips, "I lost my reputation before I was 16, and I'm just a laughing stock in Jinling City."

"You are not allowed to be so self-deprecating."

He felt angry for no reason, "You and I can work together, but you are not allowed to use other people."

"When did Hou Ye become so benevolent as a woman?"

Zuo Fu looked at him, "Will you worry about others?"

"You know what I mean."

He looked at her, with faint anger flashing in his slender eyes, "Don't pretend to be smart, you will end up harming others and yourself."

"Ah."

Zuo Fu smiled disdainfully, "Humanity is something that is worn away once and for all. Do you think I will be the person I am now?"

After a pause, he continued: "Sun Xunting, I came here today because I suddenly wanted to understand a truth."

She looked at him, "Maybe in this world...the person who understands me best...is you..."

He took a breath, lowered his eyes, was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "Sure enough..."

Shaking his head slightly, he picked up the wine cup to fill himself with wine, and said: "It seems that you guessed wrong, no, I underestimated you."

After a pause, he continued, "So... what are you going to do?"

"No preparations."

Zuo Fu pushed the wine cup in front of him, and said calmly: "The soldiers come to cover them with water and soil, and if they want to use me, it depends on whether I have the ability to make me willing."

"Then why are you complaining again?"

"Will you not complain?"

Zuo Fu asked back: "I heard that you had a very hard time as a child. Even if you tried your best to please your father and your aunt, you still couldn't get a good look. Between people, we must be fair in the end. How long can the ethics and morality of living people last? Either you die or I die. If injustice exists, there will be no peace in the family, and it will be difficult for the world to be peaceful."

"Have you ever asked about my past?"

Sun Xunting raised his eyebrows, "What else did you find out?"

"Heh, you think that I, Zuo Fu, is a person who can be manipulated by others? Even though I was weak in the past, how could I not inquire about your details? Besides..."

Reaching out to take the wine cup he pushed over, he sipped his mouth lightly and said, "You are only allowed to find out about me, and I am not allowed to find out about you?"
