Chapter 45: Xiaobie wins the newlyweds(1/2)
Stepping on the tower
Two rapid footsteps were chasing in the quiet alley, and next to the street filled with lights.
After coming to Yucheng City, the wind rushing in the sky will attract the attention of the immortal masters here and will also disturb the people of the world. Both of them landed on the ground and rushed to the houses west of the city.
Shangguan Lingye was still walking in front, no longer as dignified as before, holding his skirt in both hands, jogging between the alleys, never looking back.
Zuo Lingquan chased after him all the way. When he saw the Empress Dowager landing, he thought he would catch up, but the Empress Dowager was too clever and shrank into a ruler as if it was slow and fast. No matter how he chased him, they kept a distance of more than a hundred steps.
Zuo Lingquan didn't know whether the concubine was angry or something else. He wanted to go up and ask what was going on, but the other party didn't give him a chance, so he could only speak:
"Empress, run slowly."
Shangguan Lingye seemed to have not heard it, and after he came to a corner of a house, he flirted with agility.
Zuo Lingquan chased to the wall and was about to follow in, but his eyes were attracted by the gate of the house.
The moonlight is sunny, dim lanterns are hanging on both sides of the gate, and under the wall is a row of lush green bamboos.
A mature beauty wearing a long cloud-patterned dress stood under a lantern, folded her hands around her waist, looking forward to it; the glimmer of the lantern and the moonlight intertwined, sprinkled on her delicate cheeks as white as mutton fat. Qiu Shui's eyes were tender and full of tenderness. Just looking to the side face, people could perceive the longing that was buried deep in her heart.
When the woman noticed the movement at the corner of the alley, she turned her eyes, her eyes lit up first, and then turned into the quiet and peaceful expression of the past, and said softly:
"Lingquan."
Although Zuo Lingquan had only been away for a few days, he felt like he had a long time left. Seeing Qingwan as a husband-seeing stone at the door, he quickly walked up to him, raised his hand and gave a bear hug:
"Just wait in the house, what are you doing?"
“Eh?”
Wu Qingwan was hugged tightly, as if she was about to squeeze into Zuo Lingquan's body, and she was a little breathless.
There is no one in the alley now, but occasionally passersby will pass by. When they are outside, Wu Qingwan can't be so irregular. She looks a little annoyed and wants Zuo Lingquan to be honest, but before she can say anything, she...
Bobobo...
Zuo Lingquan hugged Qingwan, lowered his head and sucked a few sips on his cheeks that were not applied to the makeup but still full of charm. Maybe he felt unsatisfied, so he chewed on his red lips in the last moment. If it weren't outside the gate, he might have pressed it on the ground next.
Wu Qingwan adapted to the mood between men and women again. Faced with such an offensive, her cheeks turned red, and she couldn't push them away, so she could only turn her head to avoid it, covering Zuo Lingquan's lips with her hands:
"Okay, OK, it's good to be back. I'll talk about these things when I'll go back to my room. Let's go in first."
Zuo Lingquan almost lost in the wilderness. The big stone in his heart was completely put down after seeing Wu Qingwan. He did not let go, but instead hugged Wu Qingwan's back and checked left and right:
"Where are Jiang Yi and Jingyan? Didn't you come to pick me up?"
Wu Qingwan's longing in her heart is no less than Zuo Lingquan. She is willing to keep a distance at this time. She doesn't refuse to be hugged and leaves. She raised her hand to tidy up Zuo Lingquan's clothes and sighed:
"You don't know Jiang Yi's temperament yet? You are missing, you are absent-minded all day long, and you are eager to see you. As a result, after learning that you are safe, you have an old problem again. You have to pretend that you don't want you, run to work on the errand to arrest the demons, and don't let Leng Zhu come out..."
Zuo Lingquan naturally understood Jiang Yi's personality, and it was not surprising that this was the case.
"Jing Yan has been crazy these days. He has burned incense everywhere to pray for the gods to bless you with peace. He was here to pick you up just now. But the dumplings flew back first, and they were so skinny that they felt so sad that they went back to the house to find food for the dumplings. Where did you go? If you starve the dumplings like that, are you healthy? "
Wu Qingwan groped on Zuo Lingquan with her hand, took her pulse and looked at her. After confirming that there was nothing unusual in her body, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Zuo Lingquan didn't know where he went, so he just briefly explained his experiences over the past few days. Speaking of missing at sea a few days ago, Zuo Lingquan remembered another thing:
"By the way, where has Xie Qiutao been?"
"That day ended, we were all worried about your safety and didn't pay much attention. We should be following us. After we settled here, Miss Xie came to visit once the morning before yesterday and asked you and the concubine how it was. Finally, she left again. She should be in the city..."
While the two of them were talking, they walked into the drooping flower gate, and the elegant courtyard appeared in front of them.
The pleasure boat was parked in the small lake on the side of the courtyard, with lights on inside. I could have seen Shangguan Lingye through the window.
But as soon as Zuo Lingquan walked in, the window was closed and he had not even seen his expression clearly.
Seeing this, Wu Qingwan was a little confused, but she didn't ask much, separated from Zuo Lingquan and walked towards the attic:
"You go and see Jingyan first. I have lived in the same room with Jiang Yi these days. I have time to chat at night..."
When Wu Qingwan said this, she probably felt that the conversation was all about "Yeah, um, ah," and there was a strange look in her eyes. She avoided Zuo Lingquan's gaze and walked towards the attic.
Zuo Lingquan didn't even point it out. After watching Qingwan enter the corridor, he looked at the wing room on the side of the corridor.
The windows of the room were open, and you could smell the smell of sandalwood, and there were familiar conversations inside:
"I have been raising it for a few years and I have lost it in a few days. What did you do to you?"
"Jiji..."
"Eat slowly, what should I do if I'm so full?"
"Ji~"
"Just this size is pretty good, it's so fat that it's so ugly..."
"grumble?"
Zuo Lingquan came to the door in search of the sound and looked at it.
At the round table, I was sitting on a round stool wearing a goose yellow summer skirt, and my round and smooth figure was fully displayed. From behind, the tight hem wrapped around the round buttocks, drawing a full impact curve.
There were snacks that dumplings like to eat on the round table. In the past, they didn’t feed them much, but this time they were very generous. They opened a whole box of dried fish and let the dumplings squat in them to eat. They were afraid that they would choke to death by choking the very small dumplings, so they thoughtfully broke the dried fish and fed them into the mouth of the dumplings.
When Tuanzi returned to her mother, she completely turned into a chick who was still hungry in the nest. She was so aggrieved these days. She opened her beak and took a bite and did not forget the words "Guguji~" to tell the miserable experience outside.
Tang Jingyan was the second level of the Wuhuang, and his Taoist movement was higher than Zuo Lingquan. When he heard the sound behind him, he turned back to look at the door. His mother's expression that she disliked the fat daughter instantly turned into a surprise for the little woman.
Tang Jingwen quickly closed the box, got up and came to the front:
"Xiao Zuo, you're back. You haven't suffered any losses outside, right? I've scared me these days..."
"grumble?"
In the box, the dumpling was hungry and screamed in a daze when facing the world where he suddenly reached out to see his fingers.
Zuo Lingquan walked into the house and wanted to lower his head and kiss him, but Jingyan didn't give him a chance. He turned around and checked, as if he was worried that he would lose weight like Tuanzi.
"I'm fine. The dumpling is not hungry and thin. It sprayed a big fire on the sea, making myself smaller, and it exerted great force..."
"It can do anything it can do, so it can be very powerful. It shows how dangerous the situation is. Don't move around, let me see if I am injured..."
Zuo Lingquan opened his arms and asked Tang Jingyan to check back and forth, and his eyes turned to the desk facing the door.
There are more than a dozen wooden people of different shapes on the desk, either heroic or solemn, and they all look like various pheasant gods worshipped in the world; each god is in front of it with a fruit incense burner.
Tang Jingwen carefully checked and confirmed that Zuo Lingquan's body was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief. She found that Zuo Lingquan looked at a bunch of statues with strange eyes. She did not show any abnormality and explained:
"You are gone, so you got some gods back to worship, and it feels quite effective."
Phoenix is a serious god and earthly person. When things happen, they worship the void gods and immortals in the world, which is a bit funny.
But Zuo Lingquan could also see from this point that Tang Jingyun was worried about it; he pulled Tang Jingyun to sit at the round table and looked at the desk full of statues:
"These are mostly gods imagined by the world. Among them, there is indeed a god of the peasant god, "Peach Blossom Queen". However, people probably can't see it even if they burn incense and worship..."
Tang Jingwan didn't know that burning incense and worshiping the gods was useless, and she showed three points of helplessness in her eyes:
"I have no other way to ignore me these days. No matter whether it is useful or not, it is better to burn incense and pray for peace of mind than to wait stupidly at home. That woman is the same. She seems to be able to handle anything when she is arrogant and can't count on anything at all at critical moments..."
"You can't say that. Old Ancestor Shangguan must have been worried these days, but we just didn't let us know. As soon as I emerged today, she arrived in front of me and slapped the old devil who had been chasing me for a few days to death..."
Zuo Lingquan talked about his experience on the sea after coming out, but Tang Jingyan didn't dare to listen to these dangerous things. She said seriously:
"Don't scholars say, 'A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall'? You should not run around in the future. If you really meet those powerful immortals and demons, and the dead woman can't do anything, what should you do without a princess? That's true, it's better to live a peaceful life in Donghua City..."
Zuo Lingquan knew that Jingyan was frightened and wanted to say something like "I can't avoid what should be done," but it was meaningless to say these things, so he didn't say much, raised his hand and put it on her shoulder, and said with a smile:
"I know, I will definitely think twice before I go to trouble in the future, and I will be more timid than Tuanzi."
"grumble?"
A muffled bird screamed in the closed box.
Tang Jingwen had thousands of words in his heart, and he would definitely not finish it for a while, but she was not the only girl at home. It was obviously inappropriate to pull Zuo Lingquan over the night to talk. She looked at the attic outside the window, hesitated for a while, and looked grand:
"It's good to know. Okay, go and see the princess. The princess has been worried these days. She has stood in the attic all day long, like a husband looking at her husband, and she threw all her work to Leng Zhu, almost exhausting Leng Zhu..."
Zuo Lingquan smiled, stood up, and walked out with Jingyan:
"Go to get together, it's very troublesome to run back and forth."
Tang Jing was stunned. She didn't want to disturb Jiang Yi and Zuo Lingquan's alone, but then she thought about it and realized that Zuo Lingquan didn't want her to stay alone in the empty bedroom tonight.
Tang Jingyan has never given up and will fight for it if he should be his own things. He definitely doesn't want to stay alone in the empty bedroom.
But tonight, that shameless aunt and niece will definitely have a big fight!
She squeezed over and brought tea and water to watch the fun...
It seems that it's not impossible...
Tang Jingyan really wanted to see Qingwan, who was dignified and intellectual, and how beautiful she was in the boudoir, she looked out with a slightly red face:
"Going together... It's not impossible. It's just that the dead woman is not easy to deal with. She seems to be nearby and may come here at any time..."
Zuo Lingquan blinked his eyes before remembering that there was an old ancestor who blocked the way between him and Jingyan, and he was also hesitant for a moment.
But Tang Jingyan found that Zuo Lingquan was afraid of the ancestor and wanted her to stay alone in the empty bedroom. She was not very determined at first, so she made up her mind and pulled Zuo Lingquan out:
"What's there to worry about? She's here and won't bother you."
As he said that, Tang Jingyun signaled the small pleasure boat in the distance, saying, "She dares to come and interrupt, so I will call her apprentice in to have a family together."
Zuo Lingquan's palms and backs were full of flesh. He didn't want to ignore Jingyan, so he could only nod and smile and leave the room with Jingyan.
"grumble?"
The little box moved on the table twice, but no one paid attention to it...—
To be continued...
