Chapter 125: Gentleness is not enough
Shepherd's purse for dinner.
After discovering this dish at the vegetable market, Jiang He liked it very much, but when he saw the price, he felt it was not worth it.
After hesitating for a long time, Xu Qing bought it for her - no matter whether it was a wild vegetable or not, and there was no place to pick it, it could be sold and it was valuable.
Blanch it in boiling water and mix it before eating. It is refreshing and delicious. Xu Qing also likes it.
"Did you often eat this at that time?"
"Eat sometimes."
"homesick?"
"I didn't think about it, just...just..." Jiang He couldn't express his feelings.
If she is given a chance to choose now, whether to go back or stay here, she will definitely choose to stay.
But those people and things will always be missed.
If she just goes back like this... Erniang will definitely scold her for being stupid. She can't even ask for a good life, and she has to go back to the miserable era.
What is it if it's not stupid?
"In two years at most, I will take you back to Gusu to see if there is anything that has not changed, such as Hanshan Temple and so on... You must have seen a lot of things in the world, like those in Chang'an, and some of them are still the same.
"
Xu Qing had this plan for a long time. No matter what, he had to go shopping, wander around and see the places he should go to.
"Forget it. All the changes in the world are in the past. No matter the sins or other things in the past, they are all left at that time. You don't have to think about it..."
"I checked on the Internet what Gusu looks like now... I've already seen it." Jiang He said, "It's not the same at all."
"Of course it's different."
"Then there's no need to look any further." She was more rational than Xu Qing thought.
Life is good now, that's enough, let the past be in the past.
Just remember that Gusu in your heart.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Xu Qing agreed. Now Jiang He is in a transition zone. He neither understands everything like when he first came here, nor does he have the same thinking mode as modern people.
After dinner, Xu Qing washed the dishes as usual, while Jiang He took his cell phone and looked at his wallet. There were more than four thousand yuan in it.
Is this what's left after selling all the gold coins and paying back Xu Qing's TV money?
A lot? A lot less. For an ancient like her who has been here for less than a year, it is indeed a huge sum of money.
Is it also due to her desire for money and repaying the money? She was able to move so much by just moving bricks with her hands.
"This is an era where you can live a good life if you work hard? Is that so?"
she asked after getting her first huge sum of money.
"Yes."
Xu Qing answered simply: "But this good is only relative. Do you think your current life is good? That's good? Because you don't have other pressures and comparisons, as well as the eyes of society.
When your selfish desires expand, this little money will only make you feel painful."
"What selfish desires?"
"The fame, fortune, status, and material enjoyment of this society."
Fame, wealth, status? Material enjoyment...
Jiang He looked at his wallet in trance.
After Xu Qing washed the dishes and put them away neatly, he came out and sat on the sofa. Before he could move, he saw Jiang He put down his phone and turned around to hug him.
"What...what happened?" Xu Qing was stunned by her sudden movement.
"I wanted to ask you if you wanted to hug me, but your answer was definitely yes? So I omitted it."
"..."
Xu Qing has never understood her brain circuit, but this does not affect Jiang He's eyes closed to enjoy the tenderness between the two after dinner.
Did she smell it? The smell that Xu Qing once said.
Everyone has a unique smell. If you like it, it will smell good.
He has a warm smell on his body, no difference between fragrance and smell? It just makes people feel comfortable.
"You are very gentle." Jiang He said.
"Do you know what gentleness means?" Xu Qing tried to follow her thinking.
"You can't beat me? You can only lie to me carefully? You don't dare to be too rough."
What the hell...
Xu Qing gave up thinking.
"Can I expose the identity of the undercover now?"
"It won't be a big deal if you are exposed now, but it is better not to do it. This will affect the difficulty of getting your certificate in the future."
"Why?"
"Because this will record everything for them...it's better to catch them off guard when everything is ready than to show up rashly," Xu Qing said.
Jiang He hugged him without making a sound, and Xu Qing didn't dare to move. He had already tried it, and the result of any random movement was that Jiang He held his hands down...
The most you can do is wrap your arms around her back and lower her a little.
"I want to be on TV."
After a moment of silence, Jiang He said.
Xu Qing was a little stunned, "Which TV show is it on?"
"Just do that, others watch me play games, and then I can make money."
Jiang He gestured to the computer: "Didn't you say it might become popular? There's also a slight chance that the identity of the undercover might be accidentally exposed..."
She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then continued: "If it is not exposed, this kind of... job will also be beneficial to my identity in the future, right? It can prove my existence."
"Logically speaking——"
Xu Qing frowned, pondered for a moment and said: "There are pros and cons, but this is not as simple as you think. Maybe no one will see it at all..."
"I've understood it," Jiang He said, "I've thought about it all."
"Have you been thinking about it for a long time?"
"thought long time."
Xu Qing was silent, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "Actually, we can open a store, like if I buy you a warm baby or something, that certain treasure store..."
"I've understood it too."
Jiang He lay on his shoulder, "I've understood it since you said it last time, and I'm going to give it a try."
"..."
"You seem reluctant?" Jiang He asked.
"No, just... let me think about it."
Xu Qing whispered, hugged Jiang He hard, buried his head in her neck and took a deep breath, "Let me think about it..."
The cell phone on the table rang, and the two people turned their heads to look at it. When it rang for three seconds, Jiang He reached out and took it over and handed it to Xu Qing. It was from Qin Hao.
The wind noise in the microphone could tell that Qin Hao was outside, probably on his way home.
"What happened to your girlfriend?"
"How about what?"
"Isn't it a black household? You can't keep it secret all the time. I asked around and found out that this matter is quite complicated. If you want to do it, pick a time to go to the household registration office and see if there is any way to solve it for her."
"The solution...it must be solved. What did you ask about?"
"It depends on her situation. Just being suspected of having no relatives is useless. Now the censorship is strict..."
Qin Hao talked a lot over there, Xu Qing leaned on the sofa, held the phone to his ear, and listened with Jiang He.
Seeing Jiang He sitting cross-legged, Xu Qing reached out and flicked Jiang He's toes, causing Jiang He to tense up and glare at him with a straight face.
"Let's talk some other time. When are you free to play skewers together?"
Qin Hao said: "Then we have to wait..."
"It's okay, there's no rush."
"You're not in a hurry about your girlfriend?"
"Maybe we'll break up when..." Xu Qing glanced at Jiang He, "If we break up, there's no need to bother."
"..."
