Demon branches and jade leaves

Chapter 102

Di Jiuchen stood at the door of Jiang Louyue for a while, then turned around sadly, and disappeared into the night with a slightly desolate back.

Jiang Louyue stayed inside the door all the time, quietly listening to the sound outside the door.

Knowing that he was really gone, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey--"

Jiang Louyue was very frustrated, she slowly slid down, sat on the cold ground, bent her legs, hugged her knees, and buried her aching head on her knees.

She couldn't imagine how she yelled at that tyrant just now.

"How did it become like this..."

She felt that she was now like a puppet, controlled by Concubine Xiao, and then her life was disrupted, hurting the people around her, and indirectly hurt.

When he bowed his head, the corner of his eyes swept away inadvertently, and a faint silver light poured out from the crack of the door.

Jiang Louyue was stunned.

Silver light?Rune-engraved corners?
Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly leaned down, lying on the ground, and pulled out the silver card from the narrow crack of the door.

"Admission ticket for the inscription department?"

Jiang Louyue's heart was pounding, her whole body's blood was boiling, and she even held her breath.

That's right, it is indeed the admission ticket of the inscription department, and her name is also engraved on the lower right corner of the admission ticket.

"Brother-"

She seemed to understand something in an instant, stood up suddenly, and pushed open the door abruptly.

However, there were only empty steps outside the door, the cold wind swept the remnant leaves, and the night was dreary.

People are no longer there.

Jiang Louyue clenched the real silver admission ticket in her hand, and felt deep guilt in her heart.

The night wind in early spring is still slightly cool.

She didn't feel cold, but only felt a warmth emanating from the admission ticket in her hand and spread to her heart.

"sorry."

******
Di Jiuchen was in a bad mood and did not return to the dormitory in Tianzilou.

He just wandered aimlessly in Lu Cang Academy, walking, and somehow, he went around to the edge of Emerald Lake in the south of the academy.

The lake water is drenched in the night, slightly rippling.

There are long lights standing by the lake, and the light-colored silk sashes under the lights dance with the wind.

He saw an elderly woman sitting on a bamboo bench by the lake, threading needles and threading needles and embroidering with great concentration.

The old woman is about 80 to [-] years old. Even though she is dressed plainly, it can be seen that the materials of the clothes are excellent.

What the old woman was embroidering attentively was a pair of shoes, a pair of men's shoes.

A wealthy old woman who has no worries about food and clothing, why should she embroider shoes under the lamp by herself?

The old woman's cultivation base is very high, she felt someone approaching, turned her head and looked at Di Jiuchen, there was no surprise on her face, but a very kind smile appeared on her face.

Such a warm and motherly smile made Di Jiuchen's hard heart warm up uncontrollably.

"Young man, are you going out for a walk?"

This old woman with a very high cultivation level actually took the initiative to start a conversation with Di Jiuchen.

"Yeah." Di Jiuchen replied lightly.

"I'm getting old, and my eyes are not good. Young man, can you give me a needle for the old lady?"

The old woman lifted the needle and thread in her hand and handed it in the direction of Di Jiuchen.

"it is good."

Di Jiuchen didn't refuse. He took the needle and thread. The thread was dark blue and the eye of the needle was very thin. No wonder the old woman couldn't wear it.

After Di Jiuchen was done, he handed it back to the old woman.

"These shoes were made for my husband. I've been embroidering for almost a month, and it's about to be finished." The old woman was cheerful, and the smile on her lips was so warm, "Although my husband doesn't lack anything. , but I still selfishly want him to always wear the shoes I embroidered by myself."

Perhaps infected by the old woman's lasting tenderness towards her husband, the gloomy look on Di Jiuchen's face was also relieved a lot.

How wonderful it would be if he could be like Lou Yue in 70 years...

Di Jiuchen was taken aback by the thought that appeared in his mind!
He actually hoped to marry Lou Yue and spend a hundred years together?
Doesn't that mean...he...he likes Lou Yue?

After realizing this, Di Jiuchen's heart was beating like a drum, and his ears were hot.

The cool evening breeze in early spring could not take away the warmth from him.

He couldn't help but want to be nice to her, and he couldn't help wanting to stay by her side for a longer time, so at the risk of revealing his identity, he followed her to Lu Cang Academy.

But the man beside her who treats her well is not the only one...

That's why he was so angry, so irritable, that he couldn't help but get angry at her and wanted to bully her severely.

He was so jealous of Xiao Buye, and went crazy with jealousy.

He also looked down on Xiao Buye very much, and used Concubine Xiao's power to tie Lou Yue up so he couldn't touch it.

Back then, Xiao Buye asked Concubine Xiao Guifei to accept Lou Yue as a righteous daughter. Although it was said to have helped Lou Yue, in this matter, why was Xiao Buye unselfish?

Mrs. Yin was Lou Yue's biggest weakness. Now that she was pinched by Xiao Buye's nephew, Lou Yue seemed to be kidnapped and could not resist.It looks like glory is added to the body, but in fact it is impossible to move.

"Oops, my shoes—"

A gust of night wind blew, and the old woman reached out and brushed the messy hair from her temples, but accidentally dropped one of the shoes she had just repaired.

"Pfft—" A sound.

The newly embroidered shoe fell into the Emerald Lake.

The water in the Emerald Lake was turbulent, and after a while, the soaked new shoe was rolled into the middle of the lake and gradually sank.

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I'll help you pick it up."

Di Jiuchen pulled back his thoughts and jumped into the Emerald Lake.

A pair of slightly slack, but extremely warm hands grabbed his arm, and with such a gentle pull, he easily pulled back the body he had jumped out of.

"Thank you, young man, but it's no longer needed."

Emperor Jiuchen was extremely surprised. He felt that this old woman's cultivation was very high, but he didn't expect it to be so high.

When he came to consciousness, he was already standing opposite the old woman.

"The spring is cold, and if the young man jumps down, he will get cold. The shoes can be washed away and embroidery can be done again." The old woman was very kind.

"But this is the result of your embroidery for a month, for your husband." Di Jiuchen was puzzled.

For an old man who is seven or eighty years old with bad eyesight, this is a lot of effort.

"No, young man, you don't understand." The old woman shook her head gently, with a very gentle smile on her lips, and her eyes were full of warm colors, "My husband was afraid that I would waste my eyes, so I sneaked out. Embroidering by the Emerald Lake. When I embroidered shoes, my heart was full of thoughts of my husband. While embroidering, I recalled the past so many years, and I felt very happy."
