Big dream 18 years

Chapter 5

After a while, the woman pushed open the door and came out. Ji Shuliu was standing closest to Qin Songfeng, and he could see that his expression had not changed, but his right hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist, and his veins were bulging.

The woman went straight out of the back door of the house. She was tidied up so quickly, her clothes and bun were not messed up, her face was bright and bright, her face was rosy, but her expression was dignified and serious.

She was wearing a light and plain dress, raised her head slightly, faced the sun and walked among a group of men who were standing still, with confused or dull expressions: "Are you here? It's a coincidence." She took a deep look at Qin Songfeng, Tilting his head, showing a charming smile, he stroked his chest, "Second Master Qin, are you feeling refreshed?"

Qin Songfeng frowned slightly: "Xiao Rong, speak well. We have played together since we were young, who are you showing this to?"

The corners of Meng Xiaorong's mouth twitched, throwing away the dignified posture just now, pointing at Qin Songfeng's nose like a shrew and laughing wildly: "You are suspicious and looking for a mole everywhere, but you actually found my old lady, and you said that you are afraid that I will worry, let me go home for a while I don’t know if the traitor has been found. Is my wife still suspected? Today I will teach you to see clearly that my wife is not collaborating with enemies, but only adulterers, and Zhang Yu is not the only one. The streets are full of her adulterers. stand up……"

Zhang Yu finally came to his senses, hugged Meng Xiaorong from behind, and covered her lips fiercely: "Don't listen to her nonsense, I'm the only one, and I was the one who turned into Qiyan Villa to look for her last month." , not a traitor. When I saw you two last time, she cried behind your back, saying that you neglected her. The more I thought about it, the more unwilling I went in to see her, but that time she ignored me at all. You drove her home suspiciously, so I took advantage of her!...Qin, Song, Feng! Before I die, let me say that we have known each other for nearly 20 years, and you suspect that she is going to murder you. I am really sorry for her. With this in mind, just let her go. If I had known you would treat her like this, I wouldn't have given it up back then!"

When he spoke, he felt a little weak, but Meng Xiaorong struggled to get away.Her charming eyes swept across the nearby neighbors who were watching from a distance, and she looked at Qin Songfeng provocatively: "Since I have done this, I am not afraid that you will know. There is no glory for a lowly woman who killed her friend for many years."

Qin Songfeng took a deep breath, his tense body suddenly relaxed, without even looking at her, he smiled and walked over to pat Zhang Yu's shoulder: "Brother Zhang, what do you think of my younger brother? A brother is like a brother and a wife is like a dress." , when brother fell in love with my wife, why didn't you say it earlier, if you said it earlier, I wouldn't have robbed you back then!"

Zhang Yu pursed his lips and remained silent.

Qin Songfeng pretended to be impatient: "Brother Zhang, if you like my brother's woman, just say so, and I will divorce her when I turn around. But will you marry her or not? If you don't marry her, are you entertaining my brother?"

Zhang Yu gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, "Marry." As she spoke, she bent her knees and wanted to kneel down.

Qin Songfeng didn't wait for his knees to touch the ground, he grabbed him and smiled loudly: "Brother Zhang, don't be so alien. The three of us have known each other since we were young. It's different who marries her? Don't hurt the brotherhood because of this." He finally looked Facing Meng Xiaorong calmly, "You have been with me for so many years. Now that you are leaving, I can't treat you badly. Why don't I recognize you as my righteous sister after I write the letter of divorce, and marry you off in a beautiful way? What do you think?" ?”

Meng Xiaorong suddenly raised her head and looked at him, narrowing her eyes.

Qin Songfeng turned sideways to avoid the eyes of most people, only Ji Shuliu stood too close to see him winking at Meng Xiaorong and smiling narrowly, like a tacit agreement between playmates after an immature boy accidentally got into trouble.He whispered: "When your father is not at home, quickly agree, do you want to wait for him to come back and beat you to death?"

Meng Xiaorong's tears fell suddenly, she hesitated for a moment, then turned her head to Zhang Yu's side.

Qin Songfeng said: "Why are you crying? I'm waiting for a happy event for you. Brother Zhang, you must entertain me with good wine and good food! Let's go and find a pen and paper to write a divorce letter."

Ji Shuliu looked at them worriedly, and followed a few steps, only to realize that the others around him were still standing still and did not dare to move.He hurriedly stopped, but because of this, he heard Qin Songfeng's faint voice from the courtyard: "Xiao Rong, live well in the future. But if I have any doubts that you are a traitor, I will be punished."

■

The divorce letter only said that Qin Songfeng was away all year round and neglected family affairs, which caused the husband and wife to be at odds. The two were willing to divorce and let them remarry.Then Qin Songfeng filled his left hand with ink and pressed the hand mold at the end, which means he has divorced his wife.

Afterwards, Meng Xiaorong hurriedly packed up some things and left the house, and then she and Qin Songfeng burned incense to sacrifice to heaven by the roadside, and became brother and sister, vowing to never abandon honor or disgrace.Meng Xiaorong no longer had the aggressive look just now, her face was neither happy nor angry, except when she was making an oath, she was silent all the time.

After the ceremony, Qin Songfeng said to Zhang Yu: "Brother Zhang, go back to the county to prepare for the wedding, and find an auspicious day to marry her as soon as possible. We all know Uncle Meng's temper. Xiao Rong will stay at my house for a few days to avoid Suffering." He said with a smile, "Uncle Meng is the best way to save face, I will personally apologize to him in two days, he must be too embarrassed to care about it." Clasped fists as farewell.

Along the way, Qin Songfeng ignored Meng Xiaorong, chatting and laughing with the other brothers and Ji Shuliu; after returning to Qiyan Villa, he vacated a quiet and empty room for her to live in temporarily, and said to the people around him as a matter of course: "Xiaorong doesn't want to be my girlfriend." Wife, change to be my sister. We have become sworn brothers to Jinlan, from now on you will treat her as my own sister!" As he spoke, he unpacked the baggage he had been carrying in his hands, and put some odds and ends around.

Ji Shuliu felt tired, so he asked someone for a bucket of warm water to take a bath, fell asleep after the bath, and woke up only when it was dark.

He felt hungry, and walked out the door in all his clothes.The lingering heat of the day has not faded away, and the cicadas are constantly singing, but they are no longer noisy.He walked forward for a while, and suddenly found a woman leaning on a big tree in the middle of the courtyard, lowering her head and frowning, it was actually Meng Xiaorong.She didn't change her plain clothes, and her hair was changed back to the appearance of a girl in a boudoir, which still looks very suitable.

She waved at him: "Your name is Ji Shuliu?"

Ji Shuliu nodded blankly.

"People here speak for Qin Songfeng and look down on me, how about you?"

Ji Shuliu said: "Why should I look down on you."

Meng Xiaorong twirled her hair on her forehead, and smiled lightly: "He never told lies since he was a child, and doubted my affairs. I guess I was thinking too much. I blamed me for flirting with Brother Zhang and being suspicious because of my guilty conscience. But this is all Is it my fault alone? We have been married for several years, first he met friends everywhere, and then he was busy with some big schemes of the white world, and stayed away for several months. He occasionally brought me some jewelry, but never asked me What do you want. He will only make his own decisions and think he treats me well. To him, I am not as close to him as his sword. How gentle and considerate, I can’t think of it and throw it in the corner of the wall. Instead, I miss the time when he only regarded me as a younger sister many years ago. He is much better to outsiders than to insiders.

"I really underestimated him. It's really ugly today. Hmph, how could he draw a sword against his brother for an insignificant woman? In a few days, his generosity of Qin Songfeng's wife will be spread everywhere, tsk tsk, brother Brothers, feet, and wives are like clothes, it's really awe-inspiring, but it's a pity that I'm not a beauty who can overwhelm the country, otherwise I should really write it in Tanci and sing it for everyone to listen to."

Ji Shuliu nodded in agreement: "If what you said is true, he is really bad, but you are just as bad."

■

"Yo, little brother, you are a man after all, you still have to speak for men. Naturally, I am very bad, I am lewd and promiscuous, and I am not ashamed to commit adultery..."

Ji Shuliu interrupted her: "He has lost a lot of weight in the past month. But you have been talking about it for so long, and you only care about explaining for yourself, without asking how his body is. Isn't it bad?"

Meng Xiaorong was stunned for a moment, and looked away: "He was seriously injured at that time? I was wrong at the beginning. Besides, according to his relentless drive to find moles, he was tired and thin."

Ji Shuliu said dissatisfiedly: "What you said hurt people too much. Do you know that he suffered other injuries later, and for five or six days in a row, he was in so much pain that he couldn't eat or sleep, so he locked himself in the room so that no one could see him... ..." Meng Xiaorong cast her shocked eyes on him, and he immediately regretted it, bowed his head and said, "Forget it, I'm sorry." He hurriedly avoided.

"Where is he now..." Her trembling voice came from behind.

Ji Shuliu said: "It's all right, don't worry." He ran away faster.

There are fixed times for three meals a day in Qiyan Villa, Ji Shuliu walked away only to realize that he didn't know where to eat, and wandered around the small villa in a daze.After turning around for a stick of incense, I couldn't find any food. I only heard that many people were talking about the second sect master's "generous deed of giving up his wife", and they were sincerely proud of the second sect master's generosity.Ji Shuliu stopped to rub his feet, and suddenly found that Qin Songfeng was standing upright under the tree beside him, his eyes didn't know where to look, and he was wearing a dark coat, motionless.Suddenly realizing that there was someone beside him, Ji Shuliu let out a soft cry of fright and almost fell down.

Qin Songfeng remained motionless, and only said, "Sorry."

Ji Shuliu touched the purse at his waist, the money that his aunt gave him hadn't been spent when he came.He slapped Qin Songfeng on the shoulder: "I'm hungry, and I can't find anything to eat. May I invite you out for a drink?"

Qin Songfeng suddenly smiled: "Want to learn how to drink? I'll take you there."

■

Kuaima came to the outskirts of the county town at the foot of the mountain. There was a small open-air tavern on the street, which was actually still open.

The night was as clear as the day, and the moonlight shone down. The wine flags that couldn't be seen clearly swayed in the slight wind. Several tables were randomly placed around, and several people sat at one table, drinking and chatting with fan palms.

Qin Songfeng ordered a jar of shochu and a few dishes, and sat down to drink slowly.Ji Shuliu ate a lot of small dishes to satisfy his hunger, but after tasting a few sips of wine, he curled his lips and said that it was really bad, so Qin Songfeng added a pot of scented tea for him.

After drinking half a bowl of hot tea, Ji Shuliu shook the remaining half bowl in his hand to the moonlight, hesitated, and said bluntly, "I think you seem a little sad."

Qin Songfeng smiled: "It can't be said to be sad, and of course it is impossible to be happy. It's okay."

Ji Shuliu asked: "Do you like this wine? Can I make you happier if I invite you to drink?"

Qin Songfeng laughed: "Happy! The wine and food in this store are good, but it's a pity you don't like to drink."

Ji Shuliu picked up his chopsticks and ate a few more mouthfuls of food, nodded and said, "It's delicious....Since the person who broke into the villa that day was not a spy, but Zhang Yu, does it mean that the person who shot the poisonous arrow against you knew that Are you not in the villa?"

"That's right, smart. Brother Qian was also tracking down the person who knew my whereabouts at the time."

"Also, last time I said that you were inconsiderate of your wife, I was wrong. You two have different ideas, and each has omissions, so this kind of misunderstanding happened. I apologize to you. If you buy a drink, it will be regarded as an apology. How about it? ?" Ji Shuliu naturally picked up the tea cup and touched Qin Songfeng's wine glass.

Qin Songfeng also drank the wine in the glass, but said: "You are right, I am sorry for her." He put down the glass, and his voice became softer and then deeper, "Xiao Rong is such a girl, she has a way out when she is stubborn. Going to Hei. She was the only girl in her family, but her mother died early, and her father only cared about carrying forward the family's boxing skills and teaching her brothers how to practice martial arts. Refusing to point out, she has been unconvinced, and her temper has become more and more stubborn.

"When she was a child, she was very playful and had a wild temper. She ran around with two boys, Zhang Yu and me. When adults saw her, they called her a wild girl. I always thought that she had to marry one of us, otherwise she would not be able to marry. At the beginning, I was proud and self-righteous when I was young. In vain, I thought I was Brother Zhang’s friend, but I didn’t see that he was also interested in Xiao Rong. I said I wanted to marry her, but she hesitated for a while and then agreed. Brother Zhang claimed to be a family business in those days I was busy, I couldn't see anyone, but I didn't see anything wrong at all."

Ji Shuliu tentatively persuaded: "Because we are friends, we can relax when we are together, but it is impossible to always try to figure out what the other person is thinking. Don't be harsh on yourself."

Qin Songfeng raised his head and drank a glass of wine: "Several years have passed, and I am still so self-righteous. I bought her something occasionally, and when I came home, I thought I was a gentle and considerate husband, and I was complacent about it. Complaining is like a woman playing petty temper." He teased himself, "I have played with her since I was a child, and I know her temper best, so I just thought that keeping her in this small Qiyan Mountain Villa is considered a good idea." Take good care of me. I traveled the rivers and lakes to get a little fame, but my temperament changed a lot without knowing it. Not only did they not know me, but I didn’t know them anymore.”

He grabbed the edge of the table with all his strength, his voice seemed a little stagnant: "What shocked me the most was not that Xiao Rong and Brother Zhang would do such a thing. It was that they all believed without hesitation that I would Kill them."

He drank another cup, his waist still straight, but he frowned slightly, looked at the night sky with a lost expression, "Am I so dull, and I didn't even notice that in their eyes, I was already this kind of person." The bitter tone made Ji Shuliu suspect that he was going to cry, but he started to laugh, "Just like the hero in the story, Song Jiang angrily killed Yan Poxi, Wu Song fought and killed Ximen Qing, that's a prestige. Who is Qin Songfeng? The second master of the Chisu Gate, the people in the rivers and lakes sent eight words, "light as a flying swallow, as stable as Mount Tai", he is a reputable figure, the face of the Chisu Gate, whoever dares to insult the reputation of the Chisu Gate, will be indifferent. Cut it down with a merciless sword. Who was it that followed them to climb dirt slopes and jump rivers to mess around when they were young? You must be dreaming, and you must have died long ago..."

The forced smile was supposed to be ugly, but with Qin Songfeng's handsome thin face and deep and lonely eyes, it only looked desolate, which made Ji Shuliu feel a little sour, and wanted to lend him a hug to cry for a while.It's a pity that Qin Songfeng didn't cry, so Ji Shuliu reached out and patted his arm gently like a child.

Qin Songfeng talked to himself for a while before realizing it, and was a little dazed.After a while, he walked over to pat Ji Shuliu on the head.

Ji Shuliu rubbed his eyes, stood up and said, "I'm sleepy, go back to sleep?"

"it is good."

Immediately after returning, Qin Songfeng was silent all the way until the gate of Qiyan Villa was in sight, and then sincerely said: "Brother Ji, thank you."
