too affectionate

Chapter 37

"Ah? A room?" Before Heng Li could speak, Wan Yan who was behind him exclaimed first.

Xiao Er rubbed his hands together, and said with some embarrassment: "You see, if it doesn't work..."

"We live."

Before Xiaoer could finish speaking, Heng Li replied in a deep voice.After speaking, he sat down at the table and said in a deep voice:
"Let's go prepare the meal."

"Okay!" Xiao Er replied, and went to the kitchen.

Wanyan curled her lips, and obediently sat at the table opposite Heng Li.

Habitually took out the silk to wipe the teacup on the table, put it in front of Heng Li, and filled it with hot tea.

Although she didn't say a word, Wanyan's heart was very lively, crying and shouting: "My lord, why did you agree?" !Although I do have a little lust for beauty, I can still be regarded as a... um... half a good girl!This lonely man and widow are in the same room, so it's not good for his wife!

Heng Li took a sip of tea, raised her eyes slightly to glance at Wanyan who had written all her thoughts on her face, then retracted her eyes again, put down her teacup and explained: "We are a man and a woman passing by late at night, if it is difficult because we share the same room, then Common sense is weird. What's more, we entered Sichuan secretly, and there are many people who have inquired about our whereabouts along the way. If you don't want to impress people, don't leave special memories for others."

"Hmm..." Wanyan answered honestly with her small mouth pouted.

I can imagine this too, but it's just weird...

But Wanyan, who was tired, sleepy and exhausted at the moment, let alone bickering and fighting, didn't even have the desire to speak, she only had a mouthful in her heart, and wanted to finish eating quickly and go to sleep.

As soon as the chattering Wanyan stopped, the two of them sat there speechless and had nothing else to say.

While the two were silent, Xiao Erduan brought some side dishes and two bowls of porridge.

"You two take it easy."

"Thank you." Wanyan smiled wearily at Xiaoer.

Heng Li stretched out her hand to hold the porridge bowl in front of Wanyan, and said softly, "Eat slowly, be careful not to burn it."

"En." Wanyan raised her head to look at Heng Li, with a tired and calm smile on her small face, she nodded slightly.

In the flickering candlelight and the dim night, the sleepy Wanyan noticed that the sharp-edged outline of Heng Li had softened a lot.

After driving for a day, she ate some fruit, and Wanyan was so hungry that she had no appetite.It is really satisfying to drink a bowl of hot porridge to nourish the stomach at this time.

Under the flickering dim candlelight on the first floor of the small shop, the boy who was sitting upright and the girl who was about to lie on the table had dinner together silently.

Only accompanied by the breeze, there are bursts of cicadas singing from the mountains and forests.

This atmosphere blends perfectly with this quiet and peaceful midsummer night.

The two's room was on the second floor of the inn. Xiaoer took the two to the door and left.

After Wanyan pushed the door and went in, she just wanted to ask Heng Li to rest, so she just lay on the table by herself.

After all, Wanyan is so sleepy that she could fall asleep standing on her head.

Unexpectedly, before Wanyan opened her mouth, Heng Li didn't even enter the room, so she said at the door: "Xuan Shilang, go and rest, I'll feed the horses."

"Ah? No, my lord..." Wanyan was about to stop him, but before she finished speaking, Heng Li turned and left.

"You've been tired all day too..." Wanyan muttered to her lips in a low voice, but she didn't finish.

Well, since you are so gracious and considerate to me, then if I don't get a good night's sleep, I will not live up to your good intentions.

While thinking about this, Wanyan pounced on the bed like a hungry wolf.

"Ah! Pillow! Quilt! You are all my relatives." Wanyan got into the quilt, touched the pillow intimately a few times, and couldn't be more satisfied.

Wanyan, who was teetering on the verge of fainting, struggled and thought before falling into a sweet dream: But I can only sleep for two hours, so I will sleep with an adult!If you don't sleep after running around for a day, let alone an adult, even a god can't stand it.

Wanyan used the last sliver of consciousness left in her mind to keep ringing the alarm to herself who was about to go to sleep: only two hours of sleep, only two hours of sleep, only sleep... Phew...

The guest's horses are all fed by the waiter.Heng Li said that she was going to feed the horses, but in fact she just walked around the station yard and waited for Wanyan to fall asleep, so as to save her from being embarrassed and going to bed, and to save her from feeling uncomfortable.

When Heng Li came back, Wanyan was completely unconscious and was still snoring happily.

The candle on the table is still reserved for him.

Looking at the girl's peaceful sleeping face, sweet as honey, against the candlelight, softening the whole night.

Heng Li couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth lightly, her heart felt soft all of a sudden.

In just over ten years of my life, everything I can see is full of thorns and hazels, and everywhere in my body is difficult to move.

Occasionally, a little bit of happiness, but they are all like Hua Xu's dream, and he wakes up before he falls asleep.

The Ming song has not been played yet, but the crowd has dispersed.

Fortunately, I exchanged these sufferings for you.

You who are destined to be tied to me, you who can never escape from me, you who have to accept my love.

Even if my love is harsh, cold, and restrained.

Thinking of this, Heng Li felt a little sour in his heart.

"Huh." Heng Li lightly blew out the candle, letting the endless night flood the small room.

Every year tonight, the moonlight is like practice.It used to be thousands of miles away, but now it is close at hand.

Forget about missing.

"Hmm..." Wanyan babbled and babbled, tried to open her hazy eyes, struggled to look around, and immediately bounced up after waking up for a moment.

It's over! !How long have I been asleep!

Wanyan sat on the bed and stuck her head out of the bed curtain, only to realize that the dawn had sown the seeds of twilight in the dark night, and she could see everything in the house clearly without a candle.

Wanyan patted her chest, and breathed a sigh of relief: It's okay, it's okay, thanks to my strong willpower, I didn't sleep until noon, so adults can sleep for an hour before dawn.

While thinking about it, Wanyan hurriedly got out of bed to look for Heng Li, just when she put on her shoes and got off the bed, she saw Heng Li.

Outside the window lattice is the misty morning and the hibiscus branches interspersed with green willows.

Inside the window lattice is a young man sitting on the window sill, leaning against the window lattice and closing his eyes to meditate.

On the young man's face, there was an indifference of ignorance of the world and a natural awe.Let the morning breeze pull up the long black hair and roll or relax it on the shoulders.

Inside and outside the window lattice, the scenery and people are all cool and stunning in their own way.

The picturesque scene in front of her beautifully made Wanyan stop, fascinated by it.

After a long while, he came back to his senses, picked up the cloak of the Hengli on the stool, and tiptoed to the window, trying to cover the Hengli.

Sitting on the not-so-wide window sill, leaning against the hard window lattice, it is very uncomfortable to watch.

Wanyan understood in her heart that the reason why Heng Li sat on the window sill to rest was to keep as far away as possible from herself.

Let this night when the lonely man and the widow are in the same room, not so embarrassing and embarrassing.

It's really embarrassing for adults... Wanyan felt a little distressed in her heart.

Wanyan was about to cover the Heng Li with the cloak when the Heng Li, whose eyes were still closed, suddenly opened her mouth.

"woke up?"

Perhaps it was the reason why he hadn't spoken for a long time, Heng Li's voice had a soft and lazy hoarseness after waking up in the morning.

"Uh-huh!"

The sudden sound startled Wanyan, she unconsciously withdrew her hand holding the cloak.

Heng Li opened his eyes suddenly, letting the light in his eyes reflect the dawn light.

"Let's go when you wake up." Heng Li said while standing upright.

"My lord, won't you rest for a while before leaving? It's still early." Wanyan pointed out the window and asked cautiously.

"No need. We have to catch up with Luan Feng and the others as soon as possible, so as not to provoke eyes and ears."

While talking, Heng Li got down from the window sill, and went straight to the table to get the package.

"My lord." Wanyan called softly.

"Huh?" Heng Li turned her head, fixed her eyes on Wanyan and waited for her next words.

Wanyan, who had regained her spirit, was full of vigor and cheerfulness on her small face.

At this time, with a slight smile, he walked quickly towards Heng Li, shook out the cloak in his hand, and stretched it out to Heng Li.

"It's dewy in the morning and the wind is cool. Please wear more, my lord."

I... have been cared about by Yan'er...

Heng Li's heart skipped a beat for an instant, and a burst of warmth flashed across his heart and crept up his brows.

But on the face, he still took the cloak calmly, flung it on his body gracefully, turned around and left.

"Thank you."

Cangzhou is on the other side of the mountain, and the mountain is not high.Heng Li and Wanyan climbed the mountain from the early morning to the afternoon, and from the hillside they could already see Cangzhou City in the distance.

"My lord, where will Luanfeng and the others wait for us?" Wanyan asked Heng Li beside her.

"They're waiting at the foot of the mountain."

"Then can we live in Cangzhou City tonight?" Wanyan looked at Heng Li eagerly, hoping that he could see the naked longing in her eyes.

Wanyan has seen the famous Cangzhou dish "Rouge Goose Preserved" in "Yi Ya's Last Will", and she has been coveting it for a long time.If you pass by Cangzhou now and don't try it, wouldn't it be a waste of money!
"Don't stop, we have to move forward. The faster we go, the less the officials involved will be able to hide."

Heng Li directly cut off Wanyan's thoughts.Not to mention seeing the longing in Wanyan's eyes, Heng Li didn't even look at it.

"Oh... alright." Wanyan curled her lips, the disappointment in her heart growing crazily like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Even though Wanyan's disappointment is beyond words, she still dare not make a mistake in front of Heng Li.

Just when Wanyan had given up her fantasies, recognized the reality and continued on her way in frustration, Heng Li suddenly changed the subject and said unhurriedly: "But we can have dinner in Cangzhou and try the rouge goose breast."

"Huh?! Really?!" Wanyan suddenly raised her dejected little head, her little face was filled with excitement, and her eyes shone with anticipation.

"Yeah." Heng Li nodded slightly, and held the corner of her mouth calmly.

"I always thought that my lord, you have no desire for food and drink, but I didn't expect that there are delicacies that adults want to eat." Wanyan blinked her small eyes, and couldn't help but said briskly.

What a respectable and sad state of wanting nothing.

There are very few joys that can be grasped in life, but suffering and pain are inevitably more and more.

If you can't even experience the simplest and most simple happiness like eating and drinking, then it is true that a lot of sweetness and happiness are missing in the already bitter life.

Wanyan is very happy to be able to eat delicious rouge goose breast.

Seeing that Mrs. Heng can also enjoy the fun of food, Wanyan is even happier.

Heng Li nodded as if something was going on, as if she really wanted to eat.

But he smiled helplessly in his heart: When you saw this dish for the first time in a book a few years ago, didn’t you just tell me in your dream how much you wanted to eat it.
