The world is heavy and late

Chapter 224 Maple Leaf
Xia Qing was thinking about the Textile Bureau as she walked. She had only heard about books until she used them, but she never thought that people would do the same.

But really what other people say makes sense!
Xia Qing sighed heavily, thinking about it all the time, she has been very depressed recently, as if there is always something pressing down, she wants to do it but can't do it, she is restless in her heart, no one is easy.

Reason persuaded her to muddle along, but her emotions wanted to provoke her, which was really inexplicable.

She simply went back to the room and didn't think about the odds and ends. She couldn't wait for a moment. She was about to face sweet love, so she opened Xu Zhong's letter immediately.

Originally, Xiao Xiao was shy when she saw the content of the letter, she was silent for a while, and her smiling face froze.

Xia Qing:

Don't worry, don't worry, we will return in March.

Nothing else, Xia Qing didn't believe it, and endured grinding her teeth, she turned the thin paper over and over again, as if there was some gap that others couldn't see, she had to check it carefully, but it still wasn't there.

He hated to put down the things in his hand, feeling unhappy, but after a while he couldn't help picking it up and looking at it again. He felt a little sweet when he looked at it, but he was still a little unhappy. He stomped his feet on the ground twice, but After a while, it turned into tiptoes again.

This person is really, he said he was an ice cube, but he was also caring, and he said carefully but only these two sentences, which was annoying.

Qiao Huan watched Xia Qing's actions and did not speak. Aunt was always happy to get Master Xu's letter.

Xia Qing was dreaming wildly, and it took a long time to wake up from the slightly weird atmosphere. Seeing Qiao Huan waiting for her, she said a little uncomfortably, "Why don't you go to rest, what are you looking at me for?"

Qiao Huan: ... "The servant is not tired, what can my aunt use?"

Xia Qing: ... "In your eyes, do I keep eating?"

Qiao Huan: ...that's not what I meant.

But Xia Qing already sighed in a pretentious manner: "Forget it, I know that I am such a person in your heart."

Qiao Huan: ...

Qiao Huan was silent, and Xia Qing's addiction to drama was over, so he naturally thought of what happened today, so he said, "Prepare some things for me, give it to Mr. Xu, who is in charge of Junior Brother Xu, and Xu He also prepares for it." Just one copy."

Qiao Huan agreed, Xia Qing thought for a while and added: "Prepare some more for the master. This winter is not as cold as in previous years, but you must prepare some shoes, socks and clothes. Xu He sent some for use. Listen It is said that he also bought a house outside a few days ago, so he should not have a lot of money."

Qiao Huan nodded, and Xia Qing got up, went in, took her purse and counted it, and finally looked at her with a heartache and said, "The things of the Si Wu Si are too expensive."

Qiao Huan: ...People say that you don't need to pay money, but you insist, now you say they are expensive?

She looked at Xia Qing's hand that was stretched out, but was still holding her purse tightly, and was speechless for a while, then Xia Qing sighed, took Qiao Huan's hand and put it in hers and said, "I'm not thinking about it. Do you want to save some money? When I go out of the palace in the future, I must have some pocket money or a coffin book?"

Qiao Huan took the purse without saying a word, touched it in surprise and said, "Auntie, there are too many."

Xia Qing made a more heartbroken look, turned his head away from looking at the purse in Qiao Huan's hand, and said, "You can take the rest yourself. It's almost the New Year's Eve, so dress brightly and beautifully."

Qiao Huan was taken aback for a moment, she finally looked up at Xia Qing who was still feeling sorry, she was silent for a few breaths and finally bowed to salute, unable to say any more, she could only hear: "Thank you, aunt."

Xia Qing waved his hand and said: "In the past, Gu Weiyun gave me a gift, and I didn't pay attention to you for a while. This year, you should buy something you like yourself. Don't be dull every day and keep silent. Although you can survive, but that How boring."

Xia Qing knew that Qiao Huan's silence was not necessarily because she was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, it might be because of her nature, but seeing Qiao Huan being more silent than Gong Zhengsi at that time, she was always a little emotional.

Seeing that Qiao Huan was about to say something, she shuddered and said, "Go quickly, seeing the money in front of me always makes me feel a little uncomfortable."

Qiao Huan couldn't get out what he wanted to say, so he could only take the pocket money Xia Qing gave him and willingly run away for Xia Qing.

Xia Qing looked at Qiao Huan's back and sighed. She always felt that she could only get bored with Eunuch Xu. She felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in her back, like a stick in her throat.

In short, Xia Qing reached out and touched his shoulder, and suppressed the chill in his heart. He really didn't want to have a second time, um, whether it was giving money or sensationalism.

After sending Qiao Huan away, she planned to put away the "short words" that Xu Zhong sent back. After all, she had been looking forward to it for so long, and if she lost it, she could take the land away.

She decided that when Xu Zhong came back, she must dig it out for Xu Zhong to take a good look at, and use her careful collection, care and love to set off the heartbreaking and indifferent Xu Zhong's few words brought.

The best thing is to make Xu Zhong deeply realize his inhumanity, and then feel guilty and obedient to her. Thinking about it, she unconsciously laughed out loud, thinking that the scene must be Funny.

Although she is full of thoughts, her movements are so gentle that in front of Xu Zhong, Xia Qing is a child, a confidant and a wife. She carefully puts Xu Zhong's calligraphy in the books she often reads, and carefully flattens it. There should be no wrinkles at all.

Outside the slanted window, the sun is setting. Maybe it's December. It's not as brilliant as the sunset in summer. Now the sunset is mixed with the cold wind, and the air is full of bleakness, but Xia Qing is doing this extremely simple thing, There is a soft and bright look in the eyes, and the smoothing of the fingers, the affectionate attachment, for no reason can make people think that this paper must be a treasure, let alone how careless the owner is.

After closing the book, Xia Qing picked up the envelope on the side and prepared to put it away together with the other envelopes. This was also a testimony. She stroked her hands from top to bottom, preparing to close the envelope tightly. It was only at the bottom that I found a strange touch. There was obviously a small thing, but when I reached out to touch it, the texture was not hard, and it was definitely not letter paper.

Xia Qing was happy and curious, and it was true that there was no way out, and there was another village.

She hurriedly let go of her hand, not daring to use any more force, fearing that she would be reckless and the good things would be lost. She opened the opening of the envelope and looked inside. It looked like a leaf. When the thing came out, it was a fiery red maple leaf, just like the Xiangshan maple leaf opposite the Xiangshan Tower, it was hot and dazzling red.

It’s not natural drying, that kind of maple leaf is too fragile, an accident on the way, what I got can only be broken into pieces; this is a maple leaf picked from a tree, the branches and leaves are still energetic, and they are clamped with thick books to avoid the sun’s exposure. In this way, it was slowly flattened by the weight of the book, and now Xia Qing had the maple leaf with a faint ink fragrance, which was cold to the touch and not brittle, flat and smooth.

Xia Qing didn't know how to describe his feelings. It was a surprise to get the words, but he didn't want to get such a gift again.

The affection is leisurely, silent and quiet.

What would Xu Zhong think when he reached out to pick off the maple leaf?Thinking of the ecstasy in Xiangshan Tower?Then what will he think when he holds his favorite book day and night and looks at this maple leaf?Thinking about holding her hand and teaching her to write?What will you think when you carefully collect this maple leaf and send it to yourself?The shadows of the night are fading, and the lights are ambiguous, will you stare at the maple leaf?He let Maple Leaf miss her?

Also like her, thinking like crazy.

There was no one in the room, but Xia Qing had a sense of embarrassment and embarrassment for no reason, even more obvious than Qiao Huan's gaze just now, her ears gradually became hot, and the joy in her heart seemed to find a gap, and she squeezed out hard. Maybe he also let out a sigh of satisfaction, letting it take root and sprout, brilliant for fear that others would not know.

It may be that the lover has finally opened up, or it may be that day after day, they are in love with each other.

Xia Qing found a thick book that she didn't read often, and carefully added the fragile maple leaf to the center of the book to prevent more thoughts from slipping into the fiery red leaf, as if revealing her mind, she slowly closed After getting up and sitting in front of the desk with the book in his arms, just the swaying feet can show how vivid the joy in the owner's heart is.

Xia Qing thought, maybe starting tomorrow, she will like this book.
