As guests, Zhao Xiaomei and Lou Jinghua were received by Yao Caiwei in a tea room. The two heroes, each the head of the family, were discussing the flower business.
Zhao Kuo had no intention of interfering and just passed by.
"Master Zhao!" Su Qing crossed his hands on his chest and stood beside a rolling shutter window. Outside the window, there were Yue Qingling and Jingji playing around the flower field.
Seeing that Zhao Kuo didn't reply, but just nodded, Ajuan then asked kindly: "What brought the thief Su Qing here? The slave family thought you were going to be happy and happy in the past few years, and you had already sent us to the barbarians."
The town forgot.”
Su Qing replied: "Mrs. Zhao, you are teasing me again."
"Zhao Kuo, can you say a few words to our old friend?" Ajuan hoped that Zhao Kuo would change his depressed mood because of his friend's visit, but Zhao Kuo's eyes were empty and there was no sign of improvement.
In order to ease the embarrassment, Ajuan said to Su Qing: "Master Su, please wait here. I will bring you freshly picked flowers to make tea for you to try later. Master Su will definitely like our flower tea."
!”
"No need, Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Zhao should go to see Brother Bai and Miss Murong first. They are healing their wounds at the side door." Su Qing gestured to Ajuan to take Zhao Kuo away quickly and leave a quiet place for herself.
land.
"Still the same..." Ajuan had no intention of asking for trouble. She knew that Su Qing had always been full of prejudice against Zhao Kuo. If he were not friends of Bai Feng and Murong Yan, Su Qing would probably regard Zhao Kuo as an enemy.
Looking at the bare flower fields all over the mountain, I couldn't help but feel a bit empty in my heart.
"At the end of autumn, the last flowers have been harvested, and it always feels like there is nothing to do next." Ajuan muttered to himself, and Zhao Kuo, who was following behind him, finally responded as if he suddenly woke up.
"It seems, that's really the case."
Ajuan immediately denied: "Maybe it will be different this year because everyone is back!"
"Yeah?"
Ajuan said: "Don't you miss the days when we spent winter together with everyone?"
"No, I don't miss it at all."
Zhao Kuo covered his forehead as if he was having a headache.
--winter.
——Last time, I drove Bai Feng and Murong Yan away in winter.
Ajuan asked with concern: "Are you okay? How about we go back and have a rest later."
"No, I want to see them..."
Bai Feng sat facing the field, Tao Wuyong was changing the medicated gauze for him, and Murong Yan was playing with the tea set nearby, looking like she was enjoying a rare moment of comfort.
"Are you really here?" Zhao Kuo said, "Why don't you go inside and sit for a while? Ours is not a famous mountain temple. Visitors need to stay outdoors for several days and nights before they can enter."
Murong Yan stood up happily and greeted: "Mr. Zhao? Sister Ajuan! This is not because the smell of the medicine is too strong and will ruin the atmosphere in the tea house."
"Yan'er..." Ajuan walked over and hugged Murong Yan gently: "The Nu family has only heard about you in legends in the past few years, and thought you would never come back."
Tao Wuyong complained inappropriately: "Go, go, don't disturb the patient's rest. You go inside to catch up on old times. He needs peace and quiet now! He needs more fresh air!"
A few decayed petals were blown by the north wind and fell quietly on Bai Feng's injured arm.
"It's better to stay here." He said, and the petals were shaken to the ground by the firm voice: "Senior Tao, I asked you to follow the caravan here early in the morning. Thank you for your hard work."
Tao Wuyong was not polite and said: "As long as you know better, I will calculate the extra money when the time comes to settle the bill. But you know, after you come here, I won't be able to do many things in Hongyi Hall!"
"Hongyi Pavilion? What a familiar name." Bai Feng said with emotion: "Maybe it was the autumn wind, but suddenly many memories came to mind... That's all. With Senior Tao sitting in the battle, Hongyi Pavilion must have become the best in North Town.
Are you at the hospital?"
Tao Wuyong said: "At least there is no problem in living independently from Yuyi Academy. Now, Hongyi Hall can even use money to support Yuyi Academy. The world is changing too fast. Who knows how long we can live. Just like you
This kid's injury has not been healed for so long, but he is still alive?!"
After a while, a boy brought a bundle of newly made medicinal gauze from outside the house and said, "Sir, the medicine is ready."
"He Zhong?" Murong Yan asked in surprise: "Why didn't I see you along the way? I didn't expect that the boy back then also turned into a man."
He Zhong happily raised his hands and said, "My Lady Saint, knowing that you and Mr. Bai are still alive, I can't help but want to come and visit."
"Thank you for your hard work, let's go and rest first." Bai Feng said, and finally stood up and faced Zhao Kuo and Ajuan: "You... haven't changed much?!" There was a little joy in his words, but here
There is also a kind of calmness that belongs only to the wise.
——He is very sensible.
"Really? The Nu family also thinks that maybe Mr. Bai and Miss Murong can't recognize themselves. They have been exposed to the wind and sun every day for these years, so they may look out of shape." Ajuan secretly said with joy: "The same goes for Mr. Bai, even if he is
Even though you are seriously injured, you still look like you are not easy to mess with~"
Zhao Kuo is not like Ajuan who likes to forget things. In his memory, Bai Feng's temperament was completely different from what it is now.
If Bai Feng used to be like a sharp sword, now he is more like an ordinary tree branch. A sharp sword can defeat all kinds of weapons when unsheathed, but a tree branch is not even a weapon.
In the past, Bai Feng could be regarded as a ruthless killer. He only followed orders to kill his target. Normally, every movement and expression was full of aggression. Now, I don't know what the opportunity was that caused him to completely change his appearance, but I feel that he
There has been no radical change in my heart.
Yes, his appearance, demeanor, and movements have completely restrained his sharpness, but at the same time, he still gives people an intuitive feeling full of intimidation.
"You have changed, but you have not changed." Zhao Kuo said casually: "Before I saw you, I thought you would come to me like a great hero and make me feel ashamed. It seems that it is me.
If you worry too much, you are still not interested in fame and have even become more indifferent to fame and fortune."
Ajuan thought Zhao Kuo was talking nonsense and explained: "He just woke up, don't pay attention to him."
"Ajuan, let's talk on the other side?" Murong Yan was sensible and knew to give the two "old enemies" Zhao Kuo and Bai Feng some space to chat.
The young men of the past were all equally high-spirited and full of expectations for the future. After the fleeting years that flowed by like water and never come back, everyone had their own results.
But, is this really what they want?
Falling flowers were in full bloom, and the two former teenagers sat quietly in front of the tea house, unable to speak for a long time.
