Chapter 91
The shimmering river surface is so clear that you can see the small fish and shrimp swimming quickly inside. The calm river surface is like a mirror, reflecting the tall trees and blue sky on the other side of the water surface.
"Pa" Tongshan threw the wooden barrel onto the surface of the river, pressed it into the river before it drifted away, and easily filled a bucket of water. The wooden barrel that had been filled with water was placed aside, and then picked up another wooden barrel and repeated the action just now.
The boy in a light blue long gown squatted not far from her, biting his lower lip with his teeth tightly, his fingers fell into the water and gently stroked the woman from time to time. When he saw that she ignored him, he felt even more humiliated.
He was obviously very gentle to him last night, and he still called his name in his ear, but now he has left the bed and ignored others.
"Yan Mutou who only knows his joy..." Ye Changqiu muttered bad things about her, picked up the stone beside her and threw it into the river.
Tong Shan was slightly stunned when he heard the small voice, and looked up in confusion: "What did you say?"
"Hmph" the boy glanced at her, and he didn't even look at her.
Tong Shan looked at him for a while and put the wooden barrel full of water aside. He caught a glimpse of a round and soaked stone by the river. He picked it up and put it on his body to wipe it. The surface of the milky white stone was not bumpy at all. The small one was as big as a thumb, which looked quite beautiful.
After hesitating for a while, she walked to the boy slowly and handed the stone in her hand to him silently.
Ye Changqiu was always paying attention to her actions. When he saw her series of movements, his heartbeat slowly accelerated. In his expectation and desire, the woman handed the stone to him.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. He pursed the joy on his lips. The moment the woman spread her palms and handed them over, Ye Changqiu quickly snatched the stone and grabbed it tightly in his hand. The speed was so fast that the half-bent Tong Shan could not react for a while.
He blinked and stared at him blankly.
The boy stared at the stone in his hands happily, and after a while, he glanced at her reluctantly: "Although it's a little simpler, I'm not such a stingy person, so I forgive you..."
As he said that, he took out the silk pipa with excellent fabric and carefully wiped the milky white stones. He did not curl his lips satisfied until he wiped off the last drop of water.
“…”
Tong Shan was quite a bit aphasic. The reason why he gave him this stone was picked up by him because he happened to see it was beautiful. Why... Was he angry with her just now?
Tong Shan, who accidentally relieved the boy's anger, pursed his lips and picked up two buckets of water to go home.
"Ashan." A soft call came from not far away.
Tong Shan was stunned. When he heard the sound, he saw Jiang Huaiqing slowly walking in plain clothes and smiled softly when he met her.
"What a coincidence." He said.
The joyful curve on Ye Changqiu's lips gradually faded away. He stood up and looked at him expressionlessly, but the man seemed to have not noticed him and walked straight to the woman and smiled.
"I thought I had read it wrong just now. Ashan, don't you have to go to the restaurant today?" He was as intimate as if he was asking his wife's head, and did not take the person with her at all.
Ye Changqiu narrowed his eyes gloomyly, and his cold eyes circled on the two of them, and finally frozen on the man's face. His hands under his wide sleeves slowly clenched into fists.
At this time, the calmest mood was probably Tongshan. Although she was surprised to meet him here, she thought he should have returned to the town after worshiping him: "I have some things today, so I asked the shopkeeper to leave."
"This way..." Jiang Huaiqing nodded lightly as she knew it, and looked at her with warm eyes.
Tong Shan was a little embarrassed by his blatant eyes. He scratched his head and said politely: "Why are you here?"
The man smiled softly, moved his body slightly and pointed to the other side of the mountain and said to her: "I just came down from the mountain and passed by here."
"Oh." Knowing why he was going up the mountain, Tongshan didn't ask much, waved to the boy behind him, and then prepared to go home: "We'll go back first."
"etc!"
Jiang Huaiqing called her, looked at her and stopped talking. Finally, she pursed her thin lips and said to her with a little earnestness: "Ashan, can I talk to you alone?"
Without waiting for Tong Shan to react, Ye Changqiu, who had been standing not far away and looking at the two of them, sneered: "Brother Huaiqing seems to have forgotten his identity again."
The man frowned slightly and turned to him with a cold look.
The boy walked slowly to the woman, glanced at him expressionlessly, and said sarcastically: "Since I forgot, Changqiu can remind you that Brother Huaiqing is not the widowed man before, how can he be as tempted as before? Are you really not afraid that Lord Xu will know and give up you?"
There was undisguised sarcasm and warning in his words. Jiang Huaiqing's expression remained unchanged. He looked at him and said lightly: "Young Master Changqiu is so serious. Huaiqing just wants to talk to Ashan. How can you be afraid of your innocentness?"
"Don't think that no one knows the dirty thoughts in his heart. I just say you are pitiful and let you go. Don't be ignorant of what you shouldn't think about here." Ye Changqiu's cold eyes seemed to see through the dirtiest part of his heart, and lifted it mercilessly, and made the dirty thoughts public.
Jiang Huaiqing, who was poked into the center, had a slightly pale face, and his gloomy eyes looked embarrassed. When the woman looked at him, she looked unnaturally.
The boy snorted coldly, and he didn't look at the two of them again, and left with his sleeves.
Tongshan was in a state of ignorance. Ye Changqiu understood what he said, but the more he reached the back, he became less and less able to understand. When he saw the servant running from the slope, Tongshan said goodbye to the man with a somewhat ugly face and turned around to follow the steps of the boy.
When the two left, the servant had already run behind the man and gasped slightly, "Master, I haven't found it all the way back..."
Jiang Huaiqing waved his hand indifferently, and the usual gentle smile on his face completely dissipated. He pursed his thin lips and looked at the direction where the two of them left expressionlessly.
Before Tong Shan could ask Ye Changqiu what was wrong, Guan was called aside to ask.
"I'll ask you, have you ever had any relationship with Jiang, the widow of Ding's family?"
Tong Shan was suddenly questioned and was stunned. He never expected that Guan would ask such a question. Why is everything today related to Jiang Huaiqing?
She pursed her lips and was silent for a moment. She didn't know what to do. Although she helped him a lot before and had dinner at his house, she had never done anything beyond the rules.
"Speak!" Guan scolded angrily.
Tong Shan looked at him carefully, pursed his lips and nodded silently, and immediately slapped her on the face. With a "pop", it was particularly loud in the narrow kitchen.
Guan's eyes were red with anger, feeling distressed and annoyed: "Who is it bad for you to provoke, you just want to provoke the man who defeated his wife. If he killed the Ding family, are you still rushing to make up for the money? How did I teach you before? Keep a distance from the man before getting married. Fortunately, the widowed man looked down on you. If you are dependent on you, would you take him home??"
Although he was unintentional to Jiang Huaiqing, Tong Shan felt a little uncomfortable when Guan said this, and he couldn't help but retort in a low voice: "He is not that kind of person."
"Do you know what kind of person he is? Isn't it because he can climb the county magistrate in the town that is capable, and you are just stupid! He is willing to be used as a ladder to cling to the powerful!"
"I suddenly ran back and didn't know if it was really for worshiping my deceased wife. Maybe I still want to come back and pester you! I ask you, do you know about his return to the village?"
Tong Shan nodded silently and explained: "That day, when Kaixia went down the mountain, I only knew about him when I saw him at the entrance of the village..."
"Then has he come to you?"
Tong Shan hesitated, wondering if he should tell me what happened to Jiang Huaiqing just now. When he looked at Guan Shi's ugly face, he chose to deny it, because she was afraid that he would say something even more ugly.
Guan's face became better. He looked at Ye Changqiu, who was sitting in the yard outside the window, and whispered: "Now you are married, you must know a little bit of a sense of responsibility and don't get entangled with that person anymore."
"I know my father." Tong Shan responded obediently, although she and Jiang Huaiqing were really nothing.
The two came out of the room. Ye Changqiu was stroking the washed black rabbit in the yard. His eyes looked in the direction of the two. When he saw the red mark on the woman's face, the force of stroking the black rabbit became heavier.
Pussed his lips and lowered his eyes, Ye Changqiu got up and went back to the bedroom.
Guan, who was about to wash vegetables and make lunch, saw the boy's abnormality and frowned slightly: "What's wrong?"
Tongshan threw vegetable leaves into the rabbit railing and looked back at the direction of the bedroom: "Can probably want to take a nap before having a meal."
After all, he was tired all night last night.
“…”
This child, Guan, was rarely speechless. This man had just gotten up, how could he still want to sleep? Besides, looking at him, it doesn’t seem like he is sleepy.
It was suspected that Ye Changqiu was like this when he heard the conversation between the two of them. Guan knocked off the vegetable leaves on her hand and signaled her to go into the room to take a look.
Tong Shan had no choice but to wash his hands and go into the house to take a look. As soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw the boy sitting in front of the bronze mirror in a daze, not moving at all, and he didn't even notice her coming in.
"Changqiu?" Tong Shan walked over and picked up the black rabbit on his legs, called him lightly, and pulled his thoughts back.
Ye Changqiu looked at her coldly through the bronze mirror, and her whole body exuded a gloomy and she kept saying nothing.
"You can have lunch later. If you are sleepy, finish your meal and sleep before going out to bask in the sun..."
"I'll ask you." Before she could finish her words, the boy interrupted her, and his cold eyes stared at her like a poisonous snake: "Is it related to you that Jiang Huaiqing's sudden return?"
This incident pierced his heart like a thorn, and it would shake from time to time, causing him to feel unbearable pain and disgust. He wanted to end the person he hated with his own hands.
Tong Shan, who was asked such a question again, was helpless. He looked at him seriously and gave a positive answer: "No."
"He came back just to worship the Ding family. He had nothing to do with me. He had not had it before, and he would not have it in the future."
Ye Changqiu's gloomy eyes fluctuated. He hesitated for a while as if he was disbelief, and finally slowly raised his head to look at her: "Take it serious?"
Tong Shan curled his lips, suddenly picked up the black rabbit and put it on his shoulders, holding his body with one hand and pressing it on his little head with the other hand, holding his breath, and focusing his head seriously at him. The black rabbit also lit his little head with her movements.
Ye Changqiu chuckled, pursed her lips and shook her for a moment, waved her hand to signal her to squat down. He took out a bottle of medicine from the bronze mirror and gently applied the ointment to the red marks on her face.
"My father is really, he is so heavy." The boy blew into her cheek with distress.
"fine."
This slap is much lighter than the two slaps he had given her before.
