Chapter 124 Sleepless Night in Autumn Leaves
When Xia He saw his third sister coming back with Jiang Shouzhong, his expression was very strange.
Perhaps Madam is just doubtful, but she knows very well that Sanmei has special feelings for Jiang Shouzhong. After all, "heart" cannot be deceived, and she has experienced the heartache firsthand.
Now that the third sister is finally with the person she likes, does that mean she will be redundant?
"Second sister..."
Qiuye looked at his sister whom he was very familiar with, and felt inexplicably strange at this moment.
Among the four sisters, Xia He has the coldest temper.
Indifferent to everything.
It’s hard to believe that she would be close to someone of the opposite sex.
However, feelings are very elusive. Just like she didn't think that she would have a crush on a man she had known for only a short time, but it did happen.
The only difference is that she only likes it alone.
But the second sister managed to make each other like each other.
Thinking about it, Qiuye suddenly became a little unconvinced. If he was not convinced, what was wrong with his second sister?
The second sister's strength is the worst among the four sisters.
The second sister’s two balls of flesh are the smallest among the four sisters.
The second sister is not gentle at all.
The second sister likes to push on the quilt when sleeping on the bed.
Second sister...Second sister snatched away the man I like...wuwu.
Qiu Ye had complicated thoughts, and Xia He was also in a mixed mood at the moment. She inexplicably remembered Jiang Mo's previous proposal to her and the two people's passionate kiss, and felt guilty and sad for a while.
The two women had their own thoughts, chatted briefly for a few words, and then fell silent.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't know how the two women were feeling, but he felt distressed looking at these extra people at home.
Two months ago he was happy alone.
I can’t live here now.
Er Liang, Zhang Queer, Qiu Ye, Xia He and Meng Niang, plus him, there are two more people to play mahjong.
Fortunately, Mengniang doesn't need to sleep in the house. Xia He has a rope, but Qiuye doesn't know whether to sleep on a rope or a bed. If it's a bed, she can only squeeze in with him.
He is not in the habit of sleeping on the floor.
After all, this is your own home. If you feel wronged, you cannot wrong yourself.
Jiang Shouzhong, who was in a bad mood, sighed and saw Zhang Queer sitting alone under the eaves in a daze. He walked to the girl and said, "The matter has been settled. I will go to the Yamen with me tomorrow to record a confession. In the future, the court will I won’t cause trouble for you. I’ll take you to that relative’s house in a few days.” Zhang Queer stared blankly at the pile of snowmen in the yard as if he hadn’t heard anything. A delicate porcelain doll that has lost its vitality.
Jiang Shouzhong didn’t know how to comfort him.
After all, she is just a twelve-year-old girl. No matter how precocious her mind is, facing the death of her family members and having to take revenge, she will always lose her direction, like a lonely boat floating in the sea.
When I brought this girl home, the first thing she did when she woke up was to pull out Xia He's knife and prepare to commit suicide.
Very decisive.
In the end, this girl survived because Jiang Shouzhong said: Your mother’s body is still lying in the Yamen. I will find a way to come out in a few days and bury it with your father. If you die again Not too late either.
The girl has a little motivation to live.
But at that time the girl said to him: After I die, please bury me with them.
The eyes were as dry as a pool of stagnant water.
Jiang Shouzhong was helpless towards this girl who wanted to die, but only with this stubbornness that was not afraid of death, he dared to seek revenge on Nalan Xie and had the courage to blind the eyes of A Qing in the Tianhuang Realm.
After thinking about it, Jiang Shouzhong patted the girl's shoulder, pointed at the small snowman in Erliang pile, and said softly:
"Erliang, her grandfather passed away not long ago, and he is her only Relatives. Erliang missed her grandpa, so she built a snowman in the yard. There is still some snow in the corner. If you are bored, go ahead and build a snowman. ”
Jiang Shouzhong turned around and entered the house regardless of whether the girl could hear it or not.
At dusk, there were three more little snowmen in the courtyard.
The girl stood in front of the snowman, tears streaming down her face.
The setting sun is setting, the years are silent, and the cold wind is swaying her thin figure, as if she will be assimilated with the snowman in the next moment, becoming a silent scenery in early spring.
……
Although Qiuye's thoughts were not as delicate as those of her eldest sister Chunyu, she was still a little confused when she noticed that Xia He was weak in energy and blood and looked tired, "Second sister, are you seriously injured this time? Even your life Didn’t I even help you recover?”
Because the house was too small, the two women were sitting on the roof talking casually.
The cool breeze blows gently on his cheek, which is rare and relaxing.
Xia He is willing to tell the truth about his sister. But Qiuye is a person who can't hide his worries after all. If his wife finds out, he will inevitably be in trouble.
Xia He hesitated for a moment, then made an excuse at random and said softly: "I forcibly performed the Blood Knife Technique, which caused a backlash of qi and blood, but it's okay. I'll be fine in a few days."
< br>
Qiuye opened his apricot eyes wide, "The four of us must work together to perform the Blood Knife Technique to avoid being hurt by the backlash. How can you just perform it casually? Do you know how serious the consequences are if you perform this secret martial art alone? If you are not careful, His meridians will all be destroyed or even his life will be destroyed!”
Xia He smoothed the hair blowing on his face and said helplessly: “The situation was critical at that time, and there was really nothing we could do.”
"I should accompany you."
Qiuye was a little annoyed.
But when she thought about Jiang Mo not wanting her twice, the girl felt a little bitter in her heart.
How is she worse than the second sister?
Qiuye is also a stubborn person. She always feels depressed when she can't think of an answer. She struggles internally for a long time and decides to take this opportunity to ask the second sister in person. Even if she loses, she must lose clearly. .
"Second sister, I have something to ask you."
Seeing the serious expression on the third sister's face, Xia He didn't pay attention, "You can ask."
Qiuye's red lips opened slightly, about to speak, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know how to ask. She felt that asking too directly might hurt the sisters' feelings. She suddenly remembered what Jiang Mo had said to his wife before, so she was cautious. He asked: "Jiang Mo said that the eldest lady of the Ran family slapped you because she was angry. Is it true?"
Xia He was stunned and nodded, "It's true. I was in Ran Mansion at the time, but it was also my fault."
Ah, it turns out Jiang Mo didn't lie.
The eldest daughter of the Ran family really got angry because she saw Jiang Mo being too good to the second sister.
Qiuye felt very uncomfortable.
But in order to further prove the conjecture, Qiuye asked tentatively: "Why is Miss Ran angry?"
Thinking of the embarrassing things he had done, Xia He's delicate face turned red.
Seeing the shy and happy expression on the second sister's face, Qiuye felt sour.
It’s like eating ten pounds of sour plums.
Xia He didn't know how to explain it clearly. She couldn't say that she was angry because she accidentally cut off her husband's life. He could only say vaguely: "At that time, I... I sat on Jiang Mo... and then... it was all my fault anyway."
Xia He didn't want to explain.
It's so embarrassing to say such a thing.
Qiuye, on the other hand, widened his beautiful eyes with a dull look on his face.
Compared with Xia He's naivety about the love affairs between men and women, Qiuye still knows a little bit about it. Sometimes he helps his eldest sister sort out those erotic novels for his wife, and he glances at them a few times.
Especially some storybooks have illustrations.
The content of the illustrations is varied, including what Xia He said...sitting on the body.
Qiuye stared blankly at the night sky.
I didn’t expect you to be such a second sister.
She usually has such a cold temperament, but she is so open-minded when it comes to sex.
Even in someone else’s wife’s house...
It’s strange that Miss Ran is not angry, a slap is light.
No wonder she asked Jiang Mo before if he had slept with his second sister, and the other party's answer was straightforward, without any hesitation.
Autumn leaves caressed the roof tiles gently, and the cold touch came from the fingertips, but it was not as good as the pain and helplessness in my heart.
Now that we have reached this point, what else do we hope for?
The raw rice has been cooked.
But she still doesn’t understand, what’s wrong with her?
Why did Jiang Mo treat his second sister so well in just a few days? And when I was with Jiang Mo, the other party abided by the rules. Although he was very gentle, he never did anything that exceeded the rules. I was not attractive at all?
It’s impossible for the second sister to take the initiative.
The second sister has such a temperament, she is usually cold and cold, how can she take the initiative?
Qiuye didn't want to beat around the bush anymore and asked directly: "Second sister, actually we came to see you secretly that day and saw you and Jiang Mo kissing, but we didn't tell the lady because we were afraid that she would be angry. I will keep this matter secret, but I want to know who of you... took the initiative first."
As soon as these words came out, Xia He's face suddenly turned pale.
She covered her chest and murmured: "It is indeed you..."
Seeing the unfamiliar emotion in Sanmei's eyes, Xia He realized that the other party might have misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Qiuye, you Hear me, this matter is actually-"
"Who took the initiative first, I just need an answer." Qiuye only focused on the key points.
Xia He said: "I kissed him first, but that was because I——"
"Okay, I understand."
Qiuye interrupted the second sister's words, with bitterness on his lips.
Sure enough, with the ice beauty like the second sister, no man can refuse once she takes the initiative. If I could have taken the initiative at that time, maybe...
It's just that there are not so many "maybes" in life. Qiuye finally gave up this time.
She felt that she did not lose unfairly. The second sister took the initiative because she liked it, but she chose to retreat because she liked it.
The relationship between men and women often ends in retreat and reaches positive results in initiative - this is a famous saying from an experienced elder sister.
It's a pity that she didn't listen to her elder sister earlier.
The second sister secretly wrote it down.
In the cool breeze, the autumn leaves gently held up the chin, letting the strands of sadness drift away with the wind, turning into the faintest cloud in the night sky. She turned around and looked at the beautiful face of the second sister, smiled and said: "It's okay, second sister, you deserve this."
"Autumn leaves!"
Xia He glared at this sister angrily.
She couldn't help but said: "If you like Jiang Mo, just go and pursue him. Jiang Mo told me personally that Miss Ran doesn't mind if he marries a little wife. If you want to be a real wife, I won't Stop you. But if you don’t care about your status, why do you do this to yourself! Which rich man nowadays doesn’t have three wives and four concubines? Jiang Mo is not the kind of dedicated person. He has two women in his heart..." br>
Among the four sisters, Xia He's temperament has always been simple and direct.
Go for it if you like it, forget it if you don’t like it.
The last time she rejected Jiang Mo's proposal, it was firstly because of her third sister, and secondly, she thought that their relationship had not reached that level yet. Later she felt a little regretful, and she boldly asked the other party if he could regret it.
So I was really worried when I saw Third Sister's coy temper.
Qiuye looked at each other in astonishment.
It turns out that second sister, you have already inquired about me in advance, so you dare to take the initiative to express your love.
"Miss Ran, you really don't mind?" Qiuye asked blankly.
"If you don't believe me, ask Jiang Mo yourself, or you can ask Miss Ran directly." Xia He said angrily, "Miss Ran doesn't want to be Jiang Mo's wife, otherwise why would they live separately?"< br>
Hearing this, Qiuye was unhappy, "Jiang Mo is very good, what's wrong with Miss Ran?"
"I don't know, everyone has their own pursuits." Xia He was too lazy to think deeply.
Qiu Ye blinked, her thick eyelashes making her skin extremely white, and asked again: "Jiang Mo likes two women?"
Xia He nodded, " One has passed away, and he didn't say why. But although he still has a good attitude towards relationships, if you can really become his wife, he will definitely treat you well after being with his wife for a long time. Of those great men, how many of them would sincerely treat their wives and concubines? Jiang Mo would, I believe him."
Qiuye lowered his head with a red face, "I...I. If you don’t like Jiang Mo, why do you want to be his wife?”
Xia He touched his forehead with his hand and was speechless.
Xia He stood up, his expression returned to his usual cold expression: "You can think about it slowly."
"Second sister!"
Qiuye suddenly asked curiously, " There are two little girls in the house now. You and Jiang Mo...won't you disturb them?"
Aren't you disturbing them?
Xia He was confused and said casually: "Can't you just be quiet?"
Looking at the cute expression on the third sister's face, Xia He joked: "How about I go explain to Jiang Mo now that today I’ll marry you later and go straight to the bridal chamber.”
“No!”
Qiuye was shocked.
Seeing the joking look on the second sister's face, she woke up and realized that she had been teased by the other party. The girl's soft cheeks were red and she lightly stamped her foot, "Second sister, you... I'll tell the madam!"
Xia He smiled and walked off the roof.
After the second sister left, Qiuye sat alone on the roof, looking at the lights of thousands of houses in the distance, and murmured in a low voice: "How can you like two women? With the second sister, there are three. Jiang Mo, I don’t like you anymore.”
……
In the house, Jiang Shouzhong, who was teaching Erliang how to cook, saw Xia He coming back and asked casually: “By the way, Xia He, Is Qiuye used to sleeping on a rope or a bed like you?"
"Sanmei is not used to sleeping on a rope, she is afraid of pain," Xia He said.
Jiang Shouzhong frowned, "There is no bed board at home. Que'er can squeeze in with Erliang. If Qiuye wants to sleep on the bed, she can only squeeze with me. Would she mind sleeping with me?"
"Ask yourself, she shouldn't mind." Xia He sat on the chair, closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing to heal his injuries.
......
On the roof, the girl stood up suddenly.
Second sister will not really tell Jiang Mo.
Qiuye's face looked uncertain.
The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became. She hurriedly ran off the roof to find her second sister, but as soon as she jumped off the house, she ran into Jiang Shouzhong, and the two almost bumped into each other.
“Sister, please don’t scare people.”
Jiang Shouzhong was startled and patted his heart, thinking that anyone could get on the roof of his house.
Qiuye's cheeks were dizzy, and when he met the man's gaze, he quickly lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Second sister just now..."
"Let me tell you in advance."
Jiang Shouzhong didn't notice the girl's expression and said complacently, "Now that you have seen the situation in the house, I may have to aggrieve you. Your second sister said, you don't mind telling me I'm sleeping, but I want to ask your opinion."
Qiuye was stunned at first, and then blushed.
The second sister actually said it!
What do you mean I don’t mind sleeping with you! ?
The girl was angry and ashamed, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, like a deer bumping around, her chest vibrating. The blush that poured out of her cheeks even spread to the roots of her ears, like flowing clouds.
"I...I..."
Qiuye was about to cry at this moment. Onion Gen's fingertips were twisting the skirt of his clothes hard, feeling at a loss.
How could the second sister do this!
Jiang Mo, you...you...you can't be so straightforward!
The girl felt underestimated.
Besides the shyness, there is a sense of grievance.
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the other person as if he was about to hang himself. Monk Zhang Er was confused and thought that the same bed for men and women was really not suitable, so he tentatively asked: "Do you mind the rope?"
Rope?
Qiuye looked confused.
Her head was so dizzy that she had no idea what the other person was talking about.
Suddenly, the girl thought of the madam's illustrations on the pages, where the woman was tied up with a rope...
The girl was so frightened that she stepped back again and again. The look she looked at Jiang Shouzhong was completely wrong, and she even had An urge to escape immediately.
What a reaction.
Jiang Shouzhong was speechless, "Just go to bed if you're afraid of pain. Why are you so angry?"
It was difficult for the girl whose thoughts had wandered back to normal thinking at this time, and she stammered: "Jiang Mo...you...Second Sister...she doesn't mind the rope?"
"Nonsense, you The second sister likes the rope the most.”
Jiang Shouzhong said unhappily.
Qiuye's eyes went dark and he almost fainted.
Is this still my second sister?
Seeing that the girl remained silent for a while, Jiang Shouzhong became a little impatient. He had never thought that this girl was squeamish before, and she had to struggle for a long time to sleep. Jiang Shouzhong didn't want to embarrass the other party, so he said: "It really doesn't work, why don't you go back to the Silver Moon Tower, I'll talk to the madam."
Seeing that the other party was trying to drive him away, Qiuye's face turned pale instantly. Tears welled up in his eyes.
You don’t like me that much?
Remembering what the second sister said on the roof just now, the girl gently let go of her bloody lips bitten by her teeth, and said aggrievedly: "A rope... is fine."
Jiang Shouzhong couldn't bear the girl's pitiful look, "Forget it, go to bed."
The man is helpless.
The worst case scenario is that I will suffer on the ground tonight and buy a house tomorrow.
Qiuye wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, as if mustering up great courage, looked directly into the man's eyes and said stubbornly: "Second sister can do it, why can't I! A rope is a rope!"
Is it necessary to use this expression of resignation?
Jiang Shouzhong scratched his head, stopped persuading, and turned around to enter the house.
......
The night fell darkly, shrouding the lonely hut.
Jiang Shouzhong lay sprawled on the bed and fell asleep.
Lying on the slender rope, the girl who had not recovered yet looked at the man on the bed, and then at the second sister who was also sleeping on the rope next to her. She covered her hot cheeks with her hands, "Why? That’s it.”
Qiuye moved his painful back and frowned slightly.
It hurts.
Want to sleep on the bed.
After a while, Jiang Shouzhong suddenly asked: "Does it hurt?"
"...It hurts."
"Bear it."
