His hair on the temples was like frost, he was thin and thin, and his figure was crumbling under the strong wind and rain.
It seemed that if the wind and rain were stronger, it would be able to defeat that figure.
"It's the eldest princess! What's going on? It's raining so heavily, who let her run out!"
Su Wu looked at the panicked old woman who was stumbling around in the rain, grabbing passers-by and asking questions one by one without giving up. He gritted his teeth and turned over to jump out of the window.
There is a figure faster than her.
Tianbao tugged on Su Wu's collar and quietly looked at the white-clothed figure rushing towards the old woman through the rain curtain, a smile leaking from the corner of his mouth.
Go with your heart when you are confused.
This is Bai Yu's heart.
"Let's go, let's go down too," she said.
Su An was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face was as bright as the sun, "I happened to have enough tea, let's go!"
Su Wen shook the hem of his clothes and said with a serious expression, "A certain person said bluntly, I had a premonition early in the morning that it would not be so easy to leave."
"Just think about it as an afterthought, hahaha, let's go!" Su Wu was too lazy to go through the door and down the stairs, and jumped directly from the window.
Wheat Sui rolled her eyes at his back and went downstairs with Bing'er in her arms, "Bing'er, today I will teach you another word, what is the bitter meat trick!"
Bing'er's eyes widened, "Bitter meat trick? Meat is fragrant, how can it be bitter?"
"Jie Jie Jie! Don't worry about the bitterness of the incense. In short, this time the plan is to make people swallow it happily!" A wisp of green smoke drifted past the side, so fast that the eyes could not see clearly.
There were only two people left in the tea room for a while.
"What are you doing here, Mr. Bai? Are you going to be a stone sculpture here?" Bai Qiandi walked out with one hand behind his back, his robe swinging gracefully as he walked, "An ugly daughter-in-law will eventually have to see her parents-in-law, but Mr. Bai does not need to feel ashamed, you look so good. Not ugly, just a bit older.”
Bai Kui, "..."
"Oh, after all, I'm one of you, can't you speak with a human touch?" Bai Kui caught up and hooked the man's shoulder, cordially, "Long Winter!"
Bai Xiaofeng, "..."
After walking out of the teahouse, the rain outside began to subside.
The boys and girls rushed into the rain without holding an umbrella, and ran after each other on the street, ignoring the strange eyes around them. The oppression and heaviness they felt when walking were no longer on their bodies, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders, leaving only relaxation. It is also like the scorching sun that comes out after the rain, bright and brilliant.
Bai Xiaofeng looked at the lonely carriage parked on the roadside and laughed, "Both the old and the young are indifferent. It seems that there are only two of us in the carriage, but it is spacious."
Bai Kui laughed heartily, "You've always had such an awkward temper since you were young."
"snort."
"Hahaha, get in the car!...Eh? Don't you want to go to the princess mansion?"
"It won't be long until it rains. We can start our journey when it stops. Let's go to the dock and wait. Why bother going back and forth?"
…
The heavy rain stopped around noon, and the dark clouds dispersed, letting out sunshine.
The ship moored near the dock blew its horn and slowly left the shore.
The two princesses and their daughter stood at the dock and watched the ship go away. They could still vaguely see the bow of the ship in the distance, which was lively and joyful.
"Mom, they are all so happy." Feng Hongqiang smiled.
The second princess shook off her sleeves and raised the corners of her lips, "The happiest thing is your aunt."
"I didn't expect it to be wrong. If my aunt hadn't pushed us away and slipped out of the house, my cousin and the others would have left long ago."
"No, even if Yu'er didn't see your aunt looking for someone in the rain, he would still look back." The smile on the second princess's lips crept into her eyes, "He can't let it go."
"Why?"
"Because he is from our Feng family. What's more, the partners around him are also hard-spoken and soft-hearted."
After a brief chat with her daughter, the ship was no longer visible on the canal. The second princess returned to the carriage and said, "Let's go to the palace."
"Mom, are you going to see your third aunt? What are you doing?"
"What else can I do? Send her some snacks! So she won't be able to sleep at night!"
"...Pfft!"
Although security was strictly enforced everywhere in Xiling, because of the presence of the eldest princess, the journey was smooth.
The eldest princess has never traveled far, but since boarding the ship and sailing on the canal, her energy and energy have gotten better day by day, and her whole face is radiant. She seems to have changed since she first met her in Du'an City. one person.
On the afternoon of October, the river was filled with sparkling light.
The sun shines on the deck, which is warmer than the heat of midsummer.
A group of old and young people were sitting on the bow of the boat, enjoying the sun and chatting.
The old woman wearing a precious-patterned cotton dress was very skilled at sitting cross-legged on a mat. If she didn't say anything, no one would know that she was the eldest princess with a distinguished status.
"Where will we dock next time? Are you going to go fishing?" the old woman asked enthusiastically while eating fresh fruit.
Du Buguo exclaimed, "Isn't it easy to fish? You can fish just by holding a fishing rod on the boat! The purpose of fishing is to have fun, it doesn't matter whether we can actually catch fish!"
"But I still want to go shopping. Due to my status, I have never been out of Du'an City for so many years except for royal sacrifices and memorials. Now that I am out, I want to see more." The old woman smiled, her eyes filled with laughter. Full of longing, "I didn't know that the mountains and rivers outside were vast and beautiful until I came out before."
Xiaomai Sui chuckled happily, "Isn't that right? Different places have different beauty! Fortunately, I am young. If I were as old as my sister and the others, I would have visited more places by now!"
"Hey, tell your aunt how many places have you traveled?"
Bing'er giggled, "Aunt Feng, have you forgotten again? We have said it many times. We have been to Shudao, Dongpu, and other cities in this state!"
The old woman also smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Remember, remember, I want to listen to it a few more times until I get tired of it!"
The laughter from the bow of the ship floated into the cabin, and the short men sitting opposite each other couldn't help but smile on their faces.
Bai Xiaofeng shook her jade fan and slowly sipped her tea cup, "You've been running on the boat for a month. Head Bai, you've been hiding from your son for a month, are you going to keep hiding?"
Bai Kui refused to admit it, "Look at what you said, why did I shrink back? I, Bai Kui, have been in the world for decades. I speak and do things openly and honestly, and I don't say anything to others! If you don't say it, then you have nothing to say. .”
"Ah."
"You laugh at me?"
"No, I am laughing at my stupidity for being pitted against a small turtle and fighting in the inner city for decades."
"You are indeed not young anymore."
The two looked at each other, then turned their heads and laughed.
yes.
Neither of them are young anymore.
But the anger is still as strong as before.
To put it bluntly, I don’t even accept old age.
Bai Kui is a rough guy, and he looks heroic when drinking tea when he is not pretending. He always drinks it up, "You should have guessed about my background. It doesn't make any difference whether I tell you or not. Otherwise, do you think that my little ancestor Can you let me go so easily, and stay on the ship for so many days without saying a word to me?"
"Didn't he deliberately not mention it to you? Just like before a death row prisoner leaves, if the execution time is extended by one moment, he will suffer an extra moment of suffering. That feeling is worse than being beheaded directly."
"..."
The old poisoner was right, Bai Xiaofeng was the best at shooting cold arrows.
Damn it, can we still have a good chat?
If you don't want to make people feel better, what kind of heart is this?
Don't even think about driving a wedge between him and his son!
