: Drinking under the Moon

When Gu Jingcheng and Su Xiaomu met again, it was not in the small courtyard, but in the fields of the farm.

The sun was about to set, and the sky was dyed red in the afterglow of a beautiful rosy cloud.

Gu Jingcheng looked at the thin line of mist in front of him, reflecting the loess on the ground, making Su Xiaomu's figure, who was working hard, appear thin, yet extremely warm.

This was the sunlight at dusk, but in Gu Jingcheng's eyes, it was also the dawn of a closer relationship between him and Su Xiaomu.

"When I went back, Aunt Zhao said you weren't at home, so I guessed you were here."

Gu Jingcheng never disliked the yellow mud he stepped on. His light-colored boots were stained with dirt, making his usually elegant and fairy-like figure also have a touch of mundane atmosphere.

"I'm bored too. There's nothing for me to do in the city, so I just come here to plant some things for fun. Look, this is what you eat for lunch. How about it? Is my craft getting better and better?"

When Su Xiaomu saw Gu Jingcheng, she felt unhappy.

The moment she saw him, a smile as bright as a flower bloomed on her face. The smile quickly spread across her face, and when it reached the tip of her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth also raised slightly.

"This kind of field is quite interesting. Do you want to try it together?"

"Leave it to me." Gu Jingcheng's eyes were fixed on her body, without moving away at all, "I have helped my father and two brothers at home before. Although I am not as good as them, I am definitely more skilled than you."

Gu Jingcheng had observed Su Xiaomu's farming movements. Although it was not a fake move, some movements were still not energy-saving enough.

After all, she is a little girl, so it is better to leave such a heavy job to a man like him.

"No, no need." Su Xiaomu was originally joking with him, but when he saw that he was really going to get started, he waved his hands quickly, "You sit down, if you're really bored, just look next to me. You need to hold a pen with both hands.

Where can I hold this hoe with my hands?"

Su Xiaomu is still a bit superstitious at heart. She hopes that Gu Jingcheng can always hold a pen and point out the world with the pen in his hand.

"Where is such a saying? Don't forget, I am a poor student from a poor family."

He couldn't help but laugh when he heard her speak, but he also stood aside obediently and watched her work.

A pair of eyes stared at her for a while, and then stared at the hoe in her hand.

It seems that if Su Xiaomu is not careful, he can do the work for her.

The orange light of the setting sun shone on them. While digging the soil, Su Xiaomu talked to Gu Jingcheng about the potatoes.

Su Xiaomu explained to Gu Jingcheng exactly where this potato came from and how much effort the person who got it had put in.

Of course, I also specifically emphasized that the potato yield per acre is large, but I did not tell him specifically how much it was.

After all, Su Xiaomu didn't know much about ancient potato seeds. After all, they were not varieties that had evolved over many generations in later generations.

Su Xiaomu kept talking, and the movements of her hands didn't stop either.

As she was talking, the hairpin on her head was a little tilted, and the hair on her forehead kept falling down.

There was already a lot of sweat on her forehead, and now her hair was stuck to her forehead. In addition to an uncomfortable sticky feeling, she was also a little itchy.

"That's presumptuous."

Seeing that her hair was scattered, Gu Jingcheng reached out to tuck her hair back, and thoughtfully took out a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

He was very close to her, Gu Jingcheng tilted his head, and Su Xiaomu could even feel his breath blowing on her cheek. This made her feel even more itchy than just when the hair was on her forehead.

Su Xiaomu's body froze in an instant. She stared and didn't dare to turn around. Her heart was pounding. When Gu Jingcheng wiped all the sweat for her and stood back, she breathed a sigh of relief.

.

God knows how many goosebumps she had just now.

"Do you like plum blossoms?"

Gu Jingcheng suddenly asked her.

"It's okay...but...we haven't seen any plum blossoms planted here."

Su Xiaomu didn't understand why he suddenly asked this?

Although she has been in this time and space for more than half a year, she has never seen winter.

Since there is no winter, where can I have the chance to see plum blossoms?

"Didn't you say last time..." Gu Jingcheng suddenly reached out and stroked her bun again, looking at her big dazzling eyes when she looked at him, with a smile that couldn't be hidden in her eyes, "You said

Plum blossoms are not born with bitter cold, and you too..."

"I like plum blossoms. The hairpin on my head... is probably a gift you gave me. I also like this very much."

Su Xiaomu intercepted his words, put her palm on his hand, and her fingertips touched the head of the hairpin. She tried hard to make her smile look less stiff: "Just stay for dinner today, it's getting late.

, I’m not worried about you going back alone.”

"Okay." Gu Jingcheng didn't change his expression because she interrupted what he was about to say. He happened to have a lot to say to her, "It just so happens that a lot of things have happened these days, and I haven't told you yet."

"Then I'll ask someone to bring a pot of wine. If you and I are both free, how about we drink together under the moon?"

Su Xiaomu is in a good mood today and just wants to drink a little wine.

Of course, first of all, she is not an alcoholic, and secondly, she is not an alcoholic.

Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng walked towards her courtyard one after the other.

Gu Jingcheng walked forward with a hoe. Behind him, Su Xiaomu quietly raised his hand and touched the hairpin on his head.

It was the shape of a plum blossom, and she seemed to feel it out.

The fragrance of plum blossoms does not come from the bitter cold, so does he mean to talk about her...

When Su Xiaomu thought of what he meant, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

The so-called green ants' newly fermented wine is served in a small red clay stove. It's getting snowy in the evening, can I have a glass of it?

Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng sat side by side, each drinking a bottle of sake, looking at the big and round moon in the sky, chatting about many things in recent days.

Su Xiaomu suddenly liked this atmosphere very much.

Talking to Gu Jingcheng all night long gave her a different feeling than talking to Luo Yi and Chen Anning all night long.

The two of them seemed to be good friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time. They had that feeling of cherishing each other after not seeing each other for a long time.

Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng chatted until dawn. They watched the dawn gradually break, and watched the light blue sky studded with a few remaining stars. The earth was hazy, like a silver-gray veil.

Today, they both ushered in a new day.

Gu Jingcheng didn't sleep. He left after breakfast.

Seeing his carriage disappear before his eyes, Su Xiaomu yawned sleepily and went back to sleep.

Suddenly, this second, I feel a little sorry for Gu Jingcheng. What's going on?

He stayed up all night with her, but couldn't catch up on sleep during the day.

I still have to study hard.

But there's nothing that can be done about it. Who said he has a bright future and is more promising than her?
