fairy wife

he asked her softly.

"looking at what?"

"Stars." Qiuqiu raised her finger.

Shi'er looked in the direction she pointed.

The sky is full of stars, boundless, and it is impossible to count how many there are.

Shi'er watched it with her.

"homesick?"

Qiuqiu felt that Shi'er knew and understood her as if there was another her in the world.

"kind of."

Just now she was thinking of the scholar couple, her younger sister and younger brother.

They are thousands of miles away from her.

Qiuqiu didn't know why she thought of her family just now.

Shi'er took her whole in his arms.

She didn't understand, but Shi'er did.

It was windy outside.

The wind chimes at the corner of the eaves jingle in the wind, jingling lightly.

That voice seemed so carefree, and it could be heard far, far away in the quiet night.

Qiuqiu said softly: "My little sister, when they were young, it was too hot in the house on summer nights. I took them to sleep in the yard with mats spread on the ground and smoked mosquitoes with wormwood, but after a while they died. It’s useless. I just took a cattail fan and patted them while coaxing them to sleep.”

Shi'er listened to her quietly.

"It was the same at that time as it is now. The moon above the head was very bright and round. Sometimes they all fell asleep, but I couldn't sleep. I just lay there and looked at the moon and stars above my head. When I looked at it, I felt dazed and felt It's as if I'm sleeping among the stars..."

"I also had a time like this." Shi'er said softly, "It was a long time ago, when the old illness broke out. The pain was so painful that I couldn't bear it anymore, and I could see the night sky like this when I looked up."

Not only then, but also later.

When Qiuqiu left him.

Every long night, he spent alone.

In fact, the moon and the stars have never changed, no matter in the past, present or future.

But people's circumstances are constantly changing.

He met her, and once lost her.

Now, she was lying safely in his arms.

The moonlight cast oblique shadows of the branches on the long windows.

There was no light in the house.Qiuqiu slightly turned her head to look, the outline of his face was extraordinarily soft in this night, and the loose hair looked soft and bright like flowing water waves under the moonlight.

Qiuqiu's fingers lightly touched his eyebrows.

Qiuqiu's eyebrows are not as delicate as they look.Very thick, a little hard to pierce the palm of the hand,

His nose bridge is very straight, lips.jaw……

He was so good-looking and perfect, but he was not feminine at all.

Shi'er gently held her hands and kissed her fingertips one by one.

This feeling of being cherished in the palm of the hand made Qiuqiu's face blush again.

She felt a little uncomfortable.

But more... is a great sense of happiness.

His voice was very low, like a vague sigh, calling her name repeatedly.

"Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu..."

She's here, and she won't disappear into thin air.

Qiuqiu felt a little distressed.

Shi'er is using his methods to confirm that she really exists.

He waited too long.Suffering for too long.

During the long years of her ignorance, he listened to the night breeze, counted the hours, and spent the long time alone.

There is a well-known phrase, which seems to say that if the two feelings last for a long time, how can they be in the same day and night.

This is actually just a situation where there is no other way.I can only comfort myself like this.

They really love each other, and of course they want to be together day and night.

Be it life or death.For lovers, it is the cruelest torment.

The two leaned together, reluctant to part, and whispered to each other.In fact, many words have no real meaning.She put their palms together, her hand was a circle smaller than his.She also wanted to tidy his hair, but without a comb, she couldn't straighten out the two tangled hairs with her fingers.

Her fingers ran back and forth between his hair, and the fingertips scratched the top of his head slightly itchy.

He grabbed her hand to prevent her from making trouble, Qiuqiu buried her head on his chest and secretly smiled.

Qiuqiu's fingers are very soft, it's as if there are no bones in her hands.The nails are a faint crimson, as if they have been dyed with red rouge.

Qiuqiu finally fell asleep.

The previous fun was still too intense for her, and the mental excitement could not offset the physical fatigue.

Qiuqiu slept very soundly.

She was woken up by the sun.

The sun shone on her pillow through the long window, and the bright spots gradually moved and shone on her face.

Qiuqiu couldn't sleep anymore, she rubbed her eyes hard and woke up lazily yawning.

The warm wind blows on his face.

Qiuqiu pulled up the quilt to cover her face, and it took her eyes a while to adjust to the bright light.

She sat up and found a cup of clear water and a rectangular lacquer box beside the couch.

Qiuqiu took a sip of water, and then lifted the lid of the lacquer box.

There are neat and beautiful fruits in the lacquer box, and it is very fresh at a glance.

Shi'er must have prepared this for her.

Don't ask, she just knows.

Qiuqiu pinched a slice of honeydew melon and ate it.

Melon flesh is sweet and crisp.

Qiuqiu took a sip of water and took a bite of honeydew melon.

Two white furry ears protruded from the window.

Qiuqiu smiled and waved: "Dabai, come here."

The big rabbit jumped in through the window, obediently lay down beside her feet.

Qiuqiu squeezed a piece of green fruit to feed it, and Dabai opened his mouth to eat it very obediently.

"Do you know where Shi'er went?"

Of course, it was impossible for Dabai to answer her question.

Qiuqiu and Dabai asked you to take a bite, and I ate the fruit in the lacquer box in one bite.She didn't get up until she finished eating, and sat in front of the bronze mirror to comb her hair.

She used a jade comb to smooth her hair one by one.

Shi'er pushed open the door.

He didn't come over, but just stood there watching her comb her hair.

Qiuqiu saw him in the mirror.

Shi'er was wearing a light yellow robe.

He rarely wears such bright light colors.

But this color looks very relaxed and cheerful.

"woke up?"

he came over.He took the comb from Qiuqiu's hand and combed her hair. He didn't know how to curl it, so he finally tied it with a hair tie for her.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Good."

Looking at him, Qiuqiu suddenly remembered everything about last night.

She could put aside her scruples at night, but in the bright sunlight, she couldn't look directly at the person in front of her, so she turned her head away awkwardly, and whispered, "Where did you go just now?"

"I went to explain to Lin Su. I won't go anywhere today."

Oh--

and many more!

Qiuqiu opened her eyes wide and asked eagerly, "How did you tell him?"

Shi'er didn't seem to understand what she meant.

Qiuqiu had to speak more bluntly.

"He won't see anything, will he? We..."

Seeing that she was sweating in anxiety, Shi'er hurriedly comforted her: "It's okay, he won't say it casually."

Won't say it?Then, did Lin Su still know?

Qiuqiu sighed, lying on her knees, refusing to raise her head.Like an ostrich escaping from reality, it seems that if you don't show your head, you don't have to face the humiliating reality.

Shi'er pulled her hand away amusedly, and held her face: "What's the matter? We are Taoist couples, isn't it only natural for us to be together?"

Qiuqiu looked at him.

Wouldn't he be ashamed?

Well... Men don't seem to be embarrassed by such things.

Yes, she knows it too.They are Taoist couples...

But becoming a Taoist couple is a matter of the previous life.

In this life, she and he have never held a ceremony.

How can anyone know who she is?Only a few know her identity.Most people are talking behind their backs, and there are outrageous speculations.

Shi'er thinks Qiuqiu is really cute.

What she worries about is always different from what others think.

Shi'er whispered in her ear, "How do you feel?"

Qiuqiu asked inexplicably, "How about what?"

Shi'er asked her, "Is your body... not feeling well?"

Qiuqiu blushed immediately, and gave him a hard look: "No."

She is too thin-skinned.

Shi'er was still a little worried.

Qiuqiu hesitated for a while, and seeing that he was still worried, she said in a very low voice, "It's okay."

Shi'er saw that her face was blushing, her eyes were watery, and she even ate a box of things he had prepared.Only then did he want to believe that she was really fine.

Then Qiuqiu remembered: "Aren't you going out today?"

"not going."

"Well, what if there is something urgent?"

Shi'er said irresponsibly: "Lin Su and Guan Wei are here. Leave it to them."

In other words, he belongs to her completely today?

"Let's go out for a walk." Qiuqiu's fingers intertwined with his quietly, entangled with each other regardless of each other.

The sun is especially good.

The mood is also very good.

Qiuqiu found a small paper umbrella and propped it up to cover the bright sun above her head.The goldfish embroidered on the toe of the shoe flutter and swim under the corner of the skirt, looking so vivid and lively.The river was rushing, and they walked across the river beach, across the small bridge, and across the road between the mountains.

Shi'er picked a small flower by the roadside and pinned it in her hair.

To be honest, his craftsmanship is really not very good, and everything else is crooked.Qiuqiu couldn't see clearly, she stretched out her hand to support the flower, and asked him with some uncertainty: "How is it?"

"nice."

Although he knew that there was a lot of water in his words, and this sentence must be too subjective to judge, Qiuqiu was still as happy as if he had stolen honey, feeling sweet in his heart, eyes and mouth.

Qiuqiu also folded a flower and insisted on putting it on for Shi'er.

Shi'er showed a look of embarrassment on his face, half-pushed, and let Qiuqiu put the flower on the plug for her.

Don't mention how ridiculous that looks.

Qiuqiu covered her mouth and suppressed a smile, and praised him insincerely: "It's so beautiful! Wearing flowers will make you look even more handsome and suave."

Shi'er knew she was playing tricks on him.

But seeing her so happy, he was willing to cooperate.

The two walked forward, and Shi'er pointed it out to her: "That's the fourth peak."

Jiufeng is a big place, and they walked slowly and unhurriedly.

It doesn't really matter where you go.

What matters is who you are with. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
