In the closed track.
Two tall and strong horses chased each other, as fast as the wind. After three laps of stalemate, the maroon-red one was even better, and they were the first to cross the line with a slight advantage.
"Hiss--"
The powerful front hooves were raised high and then fell down. Shi Qianxi sat steadily on the horse's back, holding the reins with one hand and holding the whip with the other. The melon-shaped face under the anti-collision helmet overflowed, feeling relieved and proud. with a smile, he turned around and looked at the defeated opponent.
"It seems that some people still have to practice."
Boss Jiang, who lost to a woman again, was not depressed at all. He was quite handsome in the same equestrian uniform. Unfortunately, he was a dark horse, otherwise he would be a perfect prince charming.
"I'm a novice, I think you're proud of."
"You, a novice?"
Shi Xixi scoffed.
"Otherwise."
Jiang Chen said, "This is my first time here in the horse farm."
"Just brag. If you lose, you lose. No one laughs at you. Who is as skilled as you in equestrian for the first time?"
"Believe it or not."
Jiang Chen turned over and dismounted the horse and handed the horse to the horse trainer who rushed over. In comparison, Shi Qianxi's movements were indeed more skillful than him, and she almost jumped off the horse's back.
"Don't you never be stubborn?"
Throwing the horse whip to the horse trainer, Shi Xixi took off her helmet and said, "When the nouveau riche becomes rich, won't he learn golf, equestrian, red wine, tea ceremony and other things?"
It's so fucking - so insightful.
Jiang Chen smiled and responded concisely, "Am I a nouveau riche?"
Shi Xixi glanced at him, took off all the cumbersome protective equipment on her body, handed it all to the horse trainer, and then shook her hair.
Tsk.
He is so heroic.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman?"
Jiang Chen wiped his face, "I've been sweating on my face."
"I didn't even dislike you, do you still dislike me?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen shut up immediately.
This sissy.
It's really unblocked.
There are so many horse trainers next to you.
After a few words, he started to speak yellow.
After the distinguished guest removed unnecessary equipment, the horse trainers quickly led the horse away.
Shi Qianqian was drinking electrolyte water and walked slowly along the track and said, "I heard that the old man from the Fang family has passed away."
"How do you know?"
"Listen to my dad. You know, he is very concerned about this kind of news."
Businessmen, especially top businessmen, need not only know how to do business, but also have a keen eye that can understand the changes in the times.
"Didn't Uncle Shi retire?"
"He is retired, but how can he change the habits he has developed in his life?"
Shi Qianxi tightened the bottle cap and said, "Congratulations, I pushed down another mountain."
"What does it have to do with me?"
"Who doesn't know that the prince of the Fang family is only the leader of Song Chaoge. With your relationship with Song Chaoge, the weak Fang family is not a big benefit for you."
Jiang Chen, who was walking beside him, was silent for a while, "Is this what Uncle Shi told you?"
"Is it still necessary to use my dad? The grudge between you and Song Chaoge is almost published in the newspaper. There shouldn't be many people who don't know."
"Song Chaoge and I were a bit of a festival, but that was all in the past. You are not unclear. There is no eternal enemy in the world."
Shi Qianqian, who was born in a merchant family, naturally deeply agrees with this point, "There is no eternal enemy in the world, but there is an eternal love rival. How can I say that the enemy of taking over a wife is irreconcilable."
Since I studied menstruation together, I have become more and more unscrupulous.
In the past, it was at most insinuated, but it was not like it is now.
Even if Shi Qianqian had already named her, Comrade Jiang Chen was really a master who pretended to be stupid and responded calmly and quickly, "Is Song Chaoge married? When did it happen?"
"If it weren't for you, he would probably have been married."
“…”
Jiang Chen said, "Don't talk nonsense."
"Some things are useless to deceive yourself. Men, you can't take any care of the humiliation under your crotch, but you can't be generous if you just take love with your sword. You know very well if a man is like this."
Jiang Chen nodded unexpectedly and did not sing the opposite tune in order to sing the opposite tune.
"It makes sense."
Shi Qianxi was surprised, stopped, looked at him and smiled, "Do you agree with that?"
"I agree, why don't you agree?" Jiang Chen also stopped.
"Then why don't you learn to be smarter?"
Jiang Chen remained silent and asked, "How to learn how to be smart?"
"A gentleman thinks that beauty is not evil. In fact, the conflict between you and Song Chaoge is very simple. Return the male protagonist to others."
Jiang Chen completely heard the taste.
It is said that the foreign fight against foreign countries must first settle the country.
But this aunt did the opposite, and implemented the policy of resolutely defending the country and resolutely resisting foreign powers.
"You mean to keep my distance from Cao Jinse?"
Jiang Chen no longer pretends to be 25.
Shi Qianxi was silent, and at the same time, she showed a teaching-worthy expression on her face.
"Are you afraid of her?"
Jiang Chen asked immediately, "I don't understand the worldly ways, and even if I guess so much, there is no need to ask."
"Who am I afraid of?"
"Cao Jinse."
"What am I afraid of her?"
"I'm afraid I can't play with dice."
Boss Jiang is worthy of being an artist. His speaking is so skillful that Shi Qianqian shook her mind in an instant. After she reacted, she wanted to spray him to death with an electrolyte water.
"Can you want some face? I'm completely considering you. Don't be an enemy who can't be killed easily."
Jiang Chen nodded and did not poke the other party's foot hurt.
"You're right, but there's one thing."
"Which point."
"It is indeed an immortal hatred to take away love with a sword, but the premise is certainly true love. Do you think people like Song Chaoge will fall in love with someone?"
Shi Xixi suddenly fell silent.
"So there is no such thing as robbing love at all, but thank you for your concern."
Jiang Chen was calm and calm and thanked him, but he was also very polite.
"So, do you really have a relationship with Cao Jinse?"
"I said you don't believe me."
Shi Xixi shook her head without hesitation.
"Since you already have the only subjective answer in your heart, what's the point of asking such a question? I'm going to Kyoto soon, why don't you go and ask her directly with me?"
"Do you think I dare not?"
Jiang Chen shook his head, "You are Shi Xixi, there is anything you dare not. Then you can arrange your schedule..."
"I said I want to go?"
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned.
Shi Qianqian turned her head, her long raised hair was soft and silky, but she almost thrust on Jiang Chen's face. Fortunately, he took a step in time.
Shi Qianxi walked forward without looking back, only hearing a word floating in the air.
"I tell you, if you play dice, none of her ten are my opponents!"
So strong and stubborn from the bone marrow.
Jiang Chen stopped in place, his skin trembled, he wanted to laugh but didn't, and he endured it very hard.
———
"Chirr, chirp, chirp..."
The crisp bird songs that are unknown form a surround sound effect of 360 degrees.
This most prestigious cemetery in Kyoto and even the country is shrouded in the tulle morning mist. Within the blue brick wall, two rows of vigorous pine trees spread out the dark green dome, turning the winding corridor into a deep tunnel, and between the gaps of stone steps. The scattered February orchids poked out, and the purple and white petals trembled gently with dewdrops, like fragments of elegiac couplets blown away by the wind.
The ashes on the ochre-red hip-top are standing quietly on the high ground, with flying eaves and hanging ridges lifting a few strands of wandering clouds. The copper door rings are shiny by the years. The mixed smell of sandalwood and white chrysanthemums floats between the pillars of the porch. The tombstones are on the gentle slope. After the paving, the white marble stele reflects the morning light, as if countless half-open classics engraved with magnificent chapters from different eras.
In the old park on the west side, several hundred-year-old ginkgo trees are pulling out new goose yellow leaves. Jiang Chen stopped in front of a lying monument and bent down a bunch of fresh white lilies. The wind blew, and the sound of pine waves spread across the entire cemetery. Three or five gray magpies were startled.
"You're a little late."
Cao Jinse beside him watched the magpies passing by the memorial wall with five-pointed stars.
Jiang Chen, who had obviously gotten up early, stood up straight, "Didn't you let me come?"
"Don't talk nonsense in front of the deceased."
It was like time was back, Cao Jinse became as solemn and solemn as before.
From beginning to end, until Mr. Fang was buried in peace, she did not inform Jiang Chen of any relevant information, which actually reflected her position. Many times, attitudes do not need to be clearly and bluntly spoken.
"Let's go, so that you won't be seen."
Jiang Chen stood up straight.
"I came here so early to offer a bouquet of flowers?"
"What about that?"
Jiang Chen asked back.
Cao Jinse pursed his lips and looked at him silently.
"I'm leaving. If the Fang family finds out, it will be a little bit strange."
After looking at the tombstone, Cao Jinse left with her.
"I heard that Fang Jun is planning to join the army?"
Jiang Chen asked.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
"How do you know?"
"Is this a state secret?"
Jiang Chen's tone was relaxed.
"It's very informed."
Cao Jinse gave affirmation.
"Fang Jun finally got lost and was the best comfort to Mr. Fang."
"Are you not worried that Fang Jun was secretly repairing the plank road and secretly traveling to Chen Cang, and take the opportunity to hide his strength and wait until the right time to take revenge on you?"
Jiang Chen didn't laugh or nervous. Just like this cemetery, it was quiet and peaceful.
"I wasn't afraid of him before, will I still be afraid of him in the future?"
Very crazy.
Very proud.
But it makes people have nothing to say.
The future trend of the Fang family has been determined. It will not collapse overnight and will definitely enter a downhill section. Mr. Fang cannot even fight at the peak of his life, let alone in the future.
"Have you seen Fang Jun after he was released from prison?"
"See."
Cao Jinse said, "He has changed a lot from what I remember."
"I thought about joining the army and running to Sichuan and Shu, which means he has achieved great enlightenment."
"You even know where he joins the army?"
"Is it necessary to make a fuss?" Jiang Chen asked back.
"I'm proud of you."
Cao Jinse curled his lips childishly.
Jiang Chen raised his arc, the rising sun crossed the ancient courtyard wall, and then penetrated layer by layer of shading, sprinkling mottled light and shadow.
"I know that everything is empty after death, but I am sad that I can't see the same Nine Provinces. The king's army settles north on the Central Plains, and I don't forget to tell my husband about his family sacrifice. Mr. Fang is here, and he has a long way to go."
Cao Jinse gathered together with his eyebrows and turned his head, and finally couldn't help it.
"Who told you?"
Jiang Chen no longer pretended to be a ghost.
"Wang Heting."
Cao Jinse suddenly realized, "You have such a good relationship with him?"
"That's not. He and Liuli are friends. They met when they returned from Kyoto and rested in the East China Sea."
"Among the younger generation, Wang Heting is indeed a leader, and there are no obvious shortcomings in all aspects."
Jiang Chen agrees very much. Although Wang Heting must belong to the southern faction and has nothing to do with Kyoto, Cao Jinse's evaluation is very objective.
Jiang Chen has seen some of the "trend players" of the younger generation of China, and should be regarded as a representative figure among them.
For example, the Northern Yuan and Nanye passed down by word of mouth.
Compared to the stubborn tiger fool and the erratic little prince, Colonel Wang is obviously a hexagon player.
"Then have you seen his sister?"
"I met and had a fight."
"A fight?"
Cao Jinse was shocked and stopped under the century-old ginkgo tree.
"Yeah."
Jiang Chen nodded.
Cao Jinse looked strange, "Did you win if you lose?"
Just guess what, Jiang Chen sighed silently and said with a little regret: "I'm sorry to lose."
...
What a shame, I'm sorry to lose.
"Really or not?"
Cao Jinse seemed to be skeptical about this result, "Is it true or false?"
"She is really a colonel?"
Jiang Chen asked for verification.
"Yeah."
"Have you served as an instructor of the special forces?"
Boss Jiang is not weak in his competitive spirit.
"I don't know much about this."
Too.
It's a secret in the military.
"It's not embarrassing to lose to such a fierce person."
He muttered.
"It's not just not embarrassing, it's entirely honor, okay. Do you know what does a woman at this level mean? Are you really losing?"
"I shouldn't have to brag if I lose to others, right?"
"If you can really fight with her, you will probably rush to get it into the army's various sharp knife battalions. Are you so capable of fighting?"
Jiang Chen smiled distractedly, "I was influenced by my eyes and eyes, and you don't even look at who is around me."
Cao Jinse smiled.
"I underestimate you."
"Those bodybuilders just look big and thick, and their true sense of security is not based on visual effects."
"What does it mean?"
"It means - don't judge people by their appearance."
Jiang Chen continued to move forward.
Cao Jinse curled his lips again and followed.
A place like a cemetery is magical and can easily make people feel gloomy and fear, but sometimes it can bring peace and peace in the depths of the soul.
"Don't you go and see your family?"
Jiang Chen said in vain at the pass that was about to go down the mountain.
Cao Jinse was stunned.
"I can wait for you."
Jiang Chen added.
Why wait?
Can't we go together?
Cao Jinse looked at him, "That's so sorry."
"It's okay, the air here is so good, so I'll take it as health."
Jiang Chen was naturally aware.
Cao Jinse smiled, "No need."
"I can accompany you too."
Jiang Chen continued.
Cao Jinse looked at him and stopped talking.
Jiang Chen didn't laugh, and was open and calm.
"Go empty-handed? I think beautifully."
Cao Jinse turned his head and continued to walk down the mountain.
Jiang Chen immediately followed.
"This question is simple. Whether it is flowers or grass, there are everywhere here. Pick a little bit of it, which is better than buying it in a flower shop."
"You can't even give up a penny, right?"
Cao Jinse said it in one sentence.
The two gradually got smaller and smaller.
Wild flowers and grass sway gently, all over the mountains and fields, endlessly reincarnated. (This chapter ends)
