Chapter 18
The night before, Qiao Chuxun almost had no sleep all night, her lips were burning hot and sore, she just rubbed them gently with the back of her slightly cool hand, which made it a little better.In my mind, I kept recalling the scene of the man holding his waist and asking for kisses, his phoenix eyes were slightly closed, his breath was hot, his thick eyelashes trembled slightly, he put his lips in his mouth and repeatedly sucked and smacked kisses, as if tasting a mouthful. Peerless delicacies...

Even though she has always been grateful to Jing Yi, and had some inexplicable appreciation and respect, Qiao Chuxun was really scared by her frivolous behavior last night.Even without any experience in interacting with men, Qiao Chuxun knew that this man was clearly taking advantage of him.Thinking of how he escaped from Bianjing because of that kind of embarrassment, and the unusual noble status of this person, Qiao Chuxun felt even more aggrieved and helpless.

If one day he became interested and did something ridiculous, what would he do, would he run away again?In the past 18 years, she has never experienced such a full and satisfying feeling. Although it is a lot harder than before, she really likes this kind of busy day preparing meals for others.Applying what I have learned from all the books I have read in the past, making everyone eat happily, helping Jing Yi recuperate, working and chatting with Xiao Taoer... She really couldn't bear to give up such days.

Getting up in the morning to prepare breakfast for everyone, Qiao Chuxun really has no appetite.Meng Mengdenden went back to the house, only then remembered that the little rabbit was still at Jing Yi's place.Not daring or wanting to go to his room at all, and really having nothing else to do, Qiao Chuxun suddenly remembered that the wedding dress she wore when she came here had been kept in the box.

It was supposed to be a set of clothes most cherished by ordinary daughters' families, but when it came to her, it became a nightmare that made her worry unbearably.Occasionally, I would dream back in the middle of the night, always dreaming that I was wearing this dress and running like crazy in the silence and darkness, but I would always be caught back in the end, with the heavy phoenix crown on my head, and a red patch in front of my eyes. Dazzling Bu, he heard the sound of that person's footsteps approaching him a little bit.The insults and taunts from Erniang and his younger siblings gradually filled his ears, the man got closer and closer, but he couldn't move his whole body...

Feeling very depressed, he took the wedding dress from the box and went to the pawn shop on impulse, without even paying back the price, he just exchanged it for three taels of silver, and walked out of the shop quickly.The broken silver in his palm seemed to be burning, but the blue sky above his head was vast and boundless. Qiao Chuxun only felt a ray of light gradually emerge from his chest, meeting the warm winter sun reflected on his face. Everywhere, even the footsteps gradually became brisk.

Walking quickly to the market, while thinking about the ingredients to be used at noon and night, trying not to think about the red dress that I discarded in the pawn shop, and the deep courtyard behind me that I have long since abandoned.The small basket on the crook of his arm was full, and he was thinking that there were still two things he hadn’t bought, and he could use other ingredients instead, when he was knocked over by a person rushing from the side, and the basket fell on the ground. On the ground, the ingredients inside were spilled all over the place.Immediately afterwards, the person whom he didn't want to see since last night suddenly appeared behind him, and tightly wrapped himself in his arms without letting go.

Then, he was first dragged into the alley by this person, obviously he was afraid of delaying his business, so he took the initiative to talk about the situation in the alley, but this person acted badly temporarily and jumped onto the wall with his arms in his arms.After coming down, he tricked himself into having a meal with him, and finally insisted on going to the east of the city to visit various shops.

He bought a bunch of hand warmer sleeves and the like, and said he would not go to the cloth shop, and he didn't want to go to the jewelry shop, but Jing Yi didn't bother, and simply dragged her into the rouge shop.Qiao Chuxun, who was hurt, was laughed at all the way. Every boss praised Jing Yi for being gentle and considerate, knowing how to cherish his own wife, and being a rare and good husband; Going to the store together to buy things, there is always a lot of business.

When he came out of the rouge shop, Qiao Chuxun finally got tough and stopped going shopping with him no matter what.Jing Yi was playing with a lip gloss box in his hand, and stood on the side of the street looking at her without speaking, his lips were slightly curved in a doting way, and his usually indifferent brows and eyes showed a gentle expression.

Qiao Chuxun looked away, and said softly: "Everyone is still waiting for lunch, so we can't go back too late."

But Jing Yi seemed to hear something funny, snorted lightly, took her hand and walked in another direction: "They won't starve to death if they don't do it!"

As he spoke, he waved to a carriage parked by the side of the road, and the driver hurriedly jumped off the carriage and ran over.Jing Yi raised his hand and threw him a small piece of silver: "Go to Jing's house in the north of the city, find someone surnamed Gao, and tell him to take people to the 'Sword Fragrance Pavilion' in the south of the city, and everyone will take them with him."

Qiao Chuxun also understood what this person meant at this moment, but felt that it was very bad to be held by this person, so he raised his arm to struggle.Unexpectedly, Jing Yi let go of her hand the next moment, and put his whole arm around her waist, the smile on his lips was extraordinarily elegant and calm: "There are many people on the street, I don't want you to be bumped into again later."

Qiao Chuxun endured this man for a long time, and now her eyes were red with anger, she raised her face and glared at him: "My lord, don't tease me all the time!" No matter how good-tempered she is, she still has a temper.People say that rabbits bite people when they are in a hurry, which really drove her into a hurry, so she might as well just leave without doing anything!Anyway, it's not like I haven't done such a thing.

Jing Yi seemed to see through what this person was thinking, turned sideways and dragged her to a blind corner on the side of the street, stretched out his fingers and squeezed her chin: "Don't go."

Qiao Chuxun turned his head to avoid his fingers, and his stubbornness also came up, and his round eyes were full of apricot eyes, which still glowed faintly: "Young master is kind to me, but you can't just follow me." Bully people casually! You can marry wives and concubines if you want a woman, and I just cook for the big guys."

Jing Yi exerted some force on the fingers pinching his chin, and his eyes were a little cold: "Do you want me to marry another woman?"

Qiao Chuxun only felt that the arms holding her lower back were getting tighter and tighter, and her jaw was pinched numb for a while, and she suppressed the tears in her eyes and replied: "I can't control who the young master wants to marry."

Jing Yi smiled suddenly, and nodded slowly: "That's right. There are not many people in the world who can control me." He lowered his head and kissed her lips lightly, and then looked at her wide-open eyes. , Slowly said: "You can count as one."

Qiao Chuxun immediately closed her eyes tightly, gnashing her teeth, feeling as if she wanted to die!How could he be so reckless and shameless under the eyes of everyone under the blue sky and broad daylight!
Jing Yi looked at her faceless little face, who saw people seeing death as home, and couldn't help but sneered, and gradually relaxed the arms around her, and the ruthlessness between her brows also faded a lot.

His fingers turned to lightly caress the delicate skin on the inside of her jaw, and his eyes followed her closed eyes lovingly and slid down to her upturned little nose, slightly trembling delicate lips, and finally saw the round jaw covered by herself. The dark red fingerprints that were pinched... Ru Moxiu frowned, put his big palm on her cheek, and lowered his head to kiss the mark.

The place where the two were standing happened to be in a dark corner, and Jing Yi was standing with his back to the street. Behind him, the snow-colored cloak fluttered in the wind, covering Qiao Chuxun in his arms.Therefore, although passers-by cast curious glances from time to time, they couldn't see exactly what the two were doing.

Jing Yi looked at the pretty person in his arms with his eyes tightly closed and his little face turned pale. He also knew that he was pushing her a little too hard, but he really didn't know how to deal with this situation. He could only rely on his nature and usual methods of handling things. to deal with.After being silent for a while, Jing Yi took out a round medicine box from his arms, with the medicine for dissipating bruises on his fingertips, and gently applied it to her.

Qiao Chuxun was startled by the cold touch that suddenly touched her skin, and opened her eyes in a little panic, only to see the other party's eyes half-downcast, staring at her chin intently.After applying the ointment, he didn't leave his fingers. Holding one side of his cheek with his big palm, he gently wiped away the tears overflowing from the corner of his eyes with his fingers, and stared at him with his dark and crystal-clear pupils.

After a while, Jing Yi slowly said two words: "Don't go."

Qiao Chuxun choked her throat, and talked with Jing Yi with a trembling voice: "As long as you don't... bully others like last night, I won't leave."

A forbearable smile quickly flashed across the deep phoenix eyes, Jing Yi was silent for a while, and replied slowly: "I will try my best." Seeing Qiao Chuxun's face paler, angry and flustered, he added in a sincere tone: " It won't be like last night."

The little dude reflected on himself for a long time. The kiss last night was a bit rough and simple. He didn't taste an inch of sweetness inside. Just two lips made him dizzy, and his whole body seemed to be on fire. not coming down...

Qiao Chuxun didn't know there was something in Jing Yi's words, and he was relieved when he heard that he promised that he would never be as frivolous as he was last night, and that he always believed that Jing Yi was a gentleman in his heart.The trembling in his heart gradually subsided, Qiao Chuxun hurriedly moved two steps to the side, withdrew from Jing Yi's embrace, hugged the little rabbit and gave Jing Yi a blessing: "Young master, go first."

Jing Yi glanced at her with a half-smile, and raised his hand again to beckon.Soon, an idle carriage across the street passed in front of the two of them. Jing Yi lifted his robe and got into the carriage, sat down lightly, and looked at her with the curtains open. His face was even a little indifferent, but there was a faint smile in his eyes. Thoughts can't be hidden.

Biting her lips, Qiao Chuxun walked to the side of the carriage, supported the outer wall of the carriage with one hand, and took care of the little rabbit with the other hand while holding the hem of the skirt, and awkwardly stepped into the carriage on the small wooden stool.

Jing Yi reported the name of the restaurant to the coachman, put down the curtain, leaned on the side of the car wall and closed his eyes to rest.Qiao Chuxun sat down sideways on the other side, lowered her head and caressed the little rabbit, and after a while, she secretly raised her eyes and quickly glanced at the person opposite.Seeing his calm face, he seemed to be thinking about something, and then recalled the piece of crimson jade and the conversation with Yi Qingyu before, somehow, inexplicably worried.

When the two arrived at the door of "Sword Fragrance Pavilion", Gao Ling and Xiao Tao'er were already waiting at the door.In the past ten years, Jing Yi has led 21 people under his command to travel all over the country, enjoying the blessings and sufferings together. When he was suffering, he ate dry food and roasted small fish roe together in the wilderness of the ruined temple. When he was happy, the 22 people divided into two tables to eat meat and drink.A group of people went to the battlefield to suppress bandits, went to the deep mountains and went to the coast, and at critical moments, they fought with one enemy against one hundred, but Jing Yi was so used to ordinary life that they couldn't move when they smelled the fragrance. Road food.

Jing Yi got out of the car gracefully, neither helped lift the curtain nor stepped forward to help, just stood aside and watched.He had the usual indifferent look on his face, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised imperceptibly.Gao Ling watched and sighed, but Xiao Taoer didn't feel the depth, and quickly stepped forward to support Qiao Chuxun's arm: "Sister Chuxun, slow down." The driver on the other side also helped lift the curtain, and Qiao Chuxun hugged her. The rabbit got out of the carriage with a vegetable basket on its arm, smiled and nodded towards Gao Ling.

Gao Ling led the way: "Master, the meals are all ready. This restaurant is most famous for its ground sheep hot pot. I heard that in addition to the secret spices handed down from the ancestors, a few traditional Chinese medicines are added to the bottom of the pot. It doesn't taste too bad. heat."

Qiao Chuxun followed Jing Yi with Xiao Tao'er on his arm. When he first heard the word "diyang", he was about to object, but he heard that there were medicinal materials for dispelling heat and reducing dryness. The faint medicinal fragrance in the incense made me say nothing.

It is said that "dog meat rolls three times, and the gods cannot stand firmly", which is the delicious taste of the mutton here. The local sheep hot pot in "Jianxiang Pavilion" is even more famous in the whole city. Every winter, there is an endless stream of people who come here to eat dog meat.

What Gao Ling wanted was the largest private seat in this restaurant. There were three tables in the room, with a wide view and a particularly good view.Looking out of the window, you can vaguely see the green water and green mountains outside the city. If it is cloudy, you can see the clouds, mountains and fog in the north of the city, with green pines and cypresses faintly revealing, like a piece of emerald soaked in cold water.

As soon as I entered the room, a smell of fragrance hit my nostrils.When everyone saw Jing Yi coming, they all stood up and cupped their hands: "My lord."

Qiao Chuxun turned around and closed the door, while Jing Yi motioned for everyone to sit down, while untiing the brocade belt on the cloak: "Everyone has worked hard these days. Anyway, the gang who committed the crime in Yuezhou City have been arrested. The rudder was destroyed again, so we have an explanation to the people."

Stretching out his hand to hand the cloak to Gao Ling, Jing Yi casually found a seat and sat down, "That boy Yiran came here in too much haste yesterday, and he was rushing back to Bianjing this morning, so he could only spend the night with them. As usual last night I should have a good meal with my brothers, and today’s meal is considered to make up for it, including the previous one in Bianjing..."

As Jing Yi said, he raised his palm and brushed off the red silk on the wine jar at hand, and raised the jar to everyone: "I don't want to say anything extra. Respect everyone."

The other wine jars quickly went around in everyone's hands, and soon everyone was holding a big bowl in their hands, and said in unison: "Respect Master and Miss Qiao." After speaking, they all raised their heads and finished.

The little Taoer next to her was speechless, and when everyone said that sentence in the end, the little girl was even more frightened, why did she feel so like a bandit!

Qiao Chuxun looked at Jing Yi drinking with some concern at first, fearing that the alcohol was too strong and he would not be able to bear it if he drank too much.Then when everyone said "Miss Qiao" in unison, they were even more stunned on the spot, and even forgot to say what they originally wanted to persuade Jing Yi to drink less.

At this moment, Jing Yi drank half of the jar in one breath, raised two fingers to stroke his lips, and looked at her with a smile, his dark pupils became more radiant due to the smell of alcohol, as if they could drip water.

Qiao Chuxun only felt inexplicably shy, but still bravely looked at people, curled the corners of his lips and persuaded in a warm voice: "Young master has not fully recovered, it's better not to drink too much alcohol."

All the shadow guards and Gao Ling all looked at Jing Yi in unison. It was not the first time someone persuaded him to say this, but Jing Yi never pretended that he didn't hear it, and he didn't even look at those girls.Jing Yi narrowed his phoenix eyes, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his lips: "Okay."

The big guys exchanged glances tacitly, and winked at Gao Ling one after another, look, look, this time the master is serious!Back then, you scolded us for buying a book as a gift to your master. This is foresight and foresight!Gao Ling was tormented by the green, wolf-like eyes of a group of people, and the veins on his forehead twitched. He simply turned around and pretended not to see it.

Jing Yi nodded his chin slightly, signaling Qiao Chuxun to come to him.On the other side, Gao Ling opened the door to greet someone to bring food.

Soon, everyone started feasting.The stewed dog meat is rich, mellow and tender. Once you take a bite, the juice with a light aroma of sauce and wine will come out. After chewing twice, you will feel the aroma of your teeth and cheeks, and you can't wait to swallow your tongue.There are several delicious mountain delicacies cooked in the pot, the soup is rich and mellow, everyone eats meat and drinks in large bowls, and tastes a few sips of the fragrant soup from time to time, feeling very refreshed!
While eating slowly, Jing Yi turned his head to look at Qiao Chuxun from time to time.Seeing her biting the piece of meat in small bites, her fair cheeks were slightly blushed by the heat from the hot pot, and her pink lips were also rosy and soaked in water. From time to time, she stuck out her small tongue to lick the juice on her lips. There was a slight smile on the side all the time, obviously very satisfied after eating.

Taking back Yijia's fiery gaze, Jing Yi picked up the wine cup and took a big gulp of the wine.I felt a flame gradually ignited in my lower abdomen, and the cold wine was poured over it, but the flames became more and more intense... The face was still calm and lazy, but the smile on his lips was obviously revealing a bit of self-deprecation.
