Qiuqiu also thought about how embarrassing it would be if it were just the two of them in the trial cave - after announcing their relationship, the two of them went on a trip alone. Well, it was a trial and not a trip, but they were two people after all, right?
Isn't it a bit like a honeymoon trip?
What clothes should she wear? A fluttering long skirt is definitely inappropriate, and a short skirt would be too ugly...
It turned out that she thought too much.
There are so many people going to the Trial Cave...well, it's more than enough to form a luxury tour group. Among them are not only familiar faces like Lin Su and Guan Wei, but also half-familiar faces like Heliu, and there are more unfamiliar faces that she can see at once.
never seen it.
But the strange thing is that almost everyone knows her. Two girls greeted her with a smile, and then introduced themselves enthusiastically and proactively. One was called Chunyu and the other was Keren.
It took Qiuqiu a long time to realize that one of the key points in the workplace is: others don’t have to remember, but you must remember who is your own boss’s wife.
Is she labeled as the boss lady now?
Well, she can't keep a low profile now even if she wants to. Even if those people are not enthusiastic and flattering towards her, they still keep a respectful distance and never want to offend her.
With so many people taking off on various spiritual birds together, the scene is quite spectacular - Qiuqiu firmly believes that it is much more powerful than the peace doves on the square. The spiritual birds move in a uniform manner, and they are obviously well-trained.
The leader was the crane that Shi'er and Qiuqiu rode. It circled on the river beach for a week, spread its wings and flew to the southeast.
Qiuqiu still held Shi'er's waist as before, but she soon noticed a change.
She is no longer a child. In the past, she could only hold Shi'er's waist with two arms together, and to block the wind, she could put her face right on his back.
But now she can hold Shi'er's waist with one arm - her waist is quite thin!
Then she wanted to take shelter from the wind like before, but now her head was leaning forward not on his back like before, but on his shoulder.
Isn't this gesture too ambiguous?
Qiuqiu glanced around, and it seemed that no one paid attention to their movements.
But Qiuqiu bets that they must have seen everything.
She straightened her waist, moved back, and grabbed Shi'er's robe with her hand.
Shi'er seemed oblivious to her little moves. He just said: "Sit tight."
The wind suddenly picked up.
Linghe leaned forward and quickly circled a protruding mountain peak in front. There was a sound of flapping wings and changing directions from behind.
The heron eagle that Lin Su was riding followed closely behind them. Qiuqiu felt that the heron eagle looked very impressive. Its head and neck were snow-white, but its body was pitch black. Its wings spread out and it looked like a flash of lightning.
The spiritual birds followed around the mountain peak one after another.
Huo'er circled Qiuqiu's wrist. Then Qiuqiu felt a light touch on her hand, which scared her so much that she quickly lowered her head, for fear that Huo'er would fall off Linghe's back.
However, her worries were completely unnecessary. Huo'er climbed up Shi'er's sleeves, curled her arms around his shoulders, and stuck out her tongue at Qiuqiu.
Great. Although this thing looks like a snake, its tongue is not forked. Qiuqiu doesn't like snakes. She always feels that the cold and slippery body makes her feel scary.
Huo'er is not like this. Although it looks a bit similar, it has claws and horns on its head. The important thing is that its body is dry and it is not a cold-blooded animal like a snake. It is very warm, even better than Qiuqiu's.
The temperature is still high.
Huo'er turned his head and got in through Shi'er's collar.
"Uh... don't crawl around." Qiuqiu looked nervously as the tip of Huo'er's tail disappeared into Shi'er's collar.
This guy is so disobedient, it makes sense why Shier always has a cold face towards him.
Then the guy's head came out of Shi'er's sleeves again.
It is still too young, very playful and curious about everything.
But in the end it was still placed on the bowl of Qiuqiu's hand, and it honestly stopped moving, probably because it was tired.
"I don't know where its parents are..." Qiuqiu also thought of her parents at this moment.
She understood that she and them were already in two different worlds, that they could not participate in her world, and that she could never return to their world.
"Are you homesick?"
"sometimes."
If Senior Sister Jingxin had not passed by that small village at that time, she would probably have grown up like any ordinary girl, learning embroidery, helping with household chores, and then being married off when she reached her age.
But the senior sister found her and took her away.
She never saw her mother and sister again, and she missed them. They were very kind to her. Her sister kept the rare malt and sweet potato candies for her, hid them quietly, and gave her a little every day. Mother
It was also very good to her. When she was watching her sewing, her mother knitted a small gourd for her with red thread and tied it on her head.
Shi'er shook her hand and said, "If I have a chance, I'll take you back to have a look."
"I just want to know how they are doing. My sister may have gotten married, and I don't know what happened to my parents. The senior sister left a sum of money at that time, and their lives should be more comfortable than before..."
Shi'er listened quietly. After a while, he said: "I sometimes think of my mother. I have only seen her portrait."
Qiuqiu was stunned for a moment.
Well, when it comes to suffering, there is a child who has suffered even more than her. She has lost her parents at a young age, and she has a strange disease that cannot be cured. Every time she attacks, she suffers from death.
The crane went up a large river. The river was wide and white waves rolled up and lapped at the embankment.
Qiuqiu never thought of asking before: "What's going on with your old illness?"
"My mother was seriously injured at the time, so I had that disease right after I was born."
Qiuqiu's hands tightened on his clothes.
"I used to feel that I wouldn't live long. It wasn't until I met you that I occasionally thought about the word future. I felt that I would also have a future, and in that future, you must be included."
His voice was mixed with the wind, but Qiuqiu heard it clearly.
Who said he couldn't speak? These words made Qiuqiu feel extremely uncomfortable, but at the same time she felt relieved - there was a sour and sweet breath swelling in her chest.
"I will think about what I will do today and what I will do tomorrow. The Mid-Autumn Festival is still more than half a year away. You said we would make mooncakes then... I am also looking forward to it because I want to be with you."
Qiuqiu stretched out her hand again and hugged Shi'er's waist, pressing her face against his shoulder.
The crane flew leisurely across the river, and the water droplets lifted up by its wings splashed. Qiuqiu felt that the fine coolness splashed into her eyes.
Qiuqiu narrowed her eyes.
Well, she thinks she is slow enough.
Now, she finally feels like she is in love. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
ps: I don’t know if this counts as yesterday’s second update or today’s second update. Anyway, I still owe the first update = = There are a lot of things to do and I am very tired, but I will work hard to pay off my debts. I went back to my parents’ home today. My mother is ill.
Fortunately, it’s not serious. There aren’t many changes, so I’m sorry to ask for the pink vote. But it’s almost the 7th, and the doubling will end soon. So if you have votes, you should vote now..(＝^w
