Red Mansion Jia Lan: Do you want to run away tonight to visit your relatives? Chapter 145: Sending wine to bid farewell to the old man, Baoyu meets Qiao Qingwen again
Chapter 145: Sending wine to bid farewell to the old man, Baoyu meets Qiao Qingwen again
Jia Lan agreed to accompany Qingwen on the trip, but for the senior official, Jia Lan could only refuse with a hard heart.
Hearing that Jia Lan planned to take her back to the Grand View Garden and hand her over to Li Wan, thinking of the latter's kindness to her and his longing for her, Ling Guan thought for a while, had no objection, and nodded silently.
After settling the matter and staying overnight in Guancheng, Jia Lan began to prepare for the move.
There are not many things to take away, but no matter how little you take, you still need three or two carriages.
While Qingwen, Qin Zhong and others were busy, Jia Lan led Wu Gui and Ban'er to a certain place in Guancheng with their things. What greeted him was the hearty laughter of an old and strong horse farm owner. p>
"Hey, Brother Lang, you are a rare visitor, why do you have time to come and see me, an old man, today?"
Although the old man was old, his eyes were still sharp. From a distance, he saw the two wine bottles Wu Gui was carrying. He greeted Gulai as if he had found a treasure, "Oh! I brought such good wine with me, just touching the old man
You can smell the aroma of wine inside!"
He took the wine bottles from Wu Gui's hands, one in each hand, stroking them like treasures.
"Old man!" Jia Lan laughed when he saw the other party's appearance, "You better restrain yourself, old man. Don't be too greedy when you are older. I specially asked people to brew these two bottles of wine for you. Listen.
I said, one day..."
"I understand!" The old man nodded, shaking two cans of wine back and forth in his hand: "I only drink a small cup a day, and the old man knows it."
"Uh..." Jia Lan saw the other party's careless look and was speechless.
It was only after more than a month of absence that he realized that Lao Cangtou had aged a lot.
Time is not forgiving.
"Old Cangtou, I came here to say goodbye to you this time. I plan to go out for some travel after the Double Ninth Festival. I'm afraid it will take a year before we meet again."
"Traveling?" Old Cangtou was obviously startled when he heard the news.
Jia Lan looked at him, and suddenly felt some strange feelings from the bottom of his heart. His spiritual sense told him that there was an obvious turmoil in the old man's aura for a moment. Even if he suddenly heard that he had come to say goodbye, such a change
It seems a bit excessive, right?
It's just that the old man was just absent-minded for a moment, and immediately calmed down his emotions. Instead, he laughed even more and said loudly: "Okay! A good man should aim everywhere. Brother, you are still young. Walk around and see all the things in this world.
Regardless of your attitude, given your status, you can be Naoshizi’s official whenever you want!"
After hearing this, Jia Lan couldn't help but raise her forehead: "Old man, you are still eating the royal food from the imperial court. Doesn't this mean you are calling your father to your face and turning around to curse your mother?"
"If the court does well, it should be praised. If it doesn't do well, why not give it a few scoldings? Anyway, I have nothing to worry about, and I am not afraid of settling accounts later!"
"Okay, okay!" Jia Lan quickly reassured the old man, fearing that he would get too excited, and told him to take care of himself before saying goodbye.
Looking at the retreating figures of Master and Servant Jialan, the old man silently put down the wine in his hand, his eyes were complicated, his mouth moved, and finally he murmured: "It's okay to leave, it's okay to leave..."
Although she had only been away for a few months, Qingwen still felt that things were different when she stepped into the Grand View Garden again.
Jia Baoyu heard the news from nowhere, and actually came to Daoxiang Village, which he almost never set foot in, and intercepted Jia Lan and his party.
"Sir, please go back first." Qingwen glanced at Baoyu and then lowered her gaze, speaking softly to Jialan, who nodded and led the group back.
Jia Baoyu stood somewhat reservedly until everyone else had gone away, then he stepped forward and looked at Qingwen affectionately.
"Qingwen, are you okay?"
Although many days have passed, he has never forgotten Qingwen. After all, Qingwen has been with Jia Baoyu for a long time and has always had a different kind of emotion for her.
Jia Baoyu, the passionate young man, seems to have divided his fantasy about feelings into many parts, such as Kuai, Daiyu, Xiren, Qingwen, etc. Each of them carries Jia Baoyu's different emotions.
He particularly remembered that snowy night, when Qingwen hung a wooden ladder and climbed up to the door frame to fix the door frame of her house. At that time, Qingwen was so cold that she covered her shoulders and shivered. Baoyu, who was moved in her heart, immediately hugged her.
Qingwen's frozen hands warmed hers, and the two of them looked at each other, smiled, and took a breath of hot breath into their intertwined hands.
The three words "Jiangyunxuan" on the door quietly added a little fragrance to the whole back room. Even Daiyu admired how good these three words were.
In fact, it’s not that the words are good, but that the person is good.
"Second Master Hui Bao, I'm living a good life." Qingwen lowered her head and replied calmly.
"I see you look great too!" Jia Baoyu stepped forward happily and wanted to hold Qingwen's hand, but she ducked away.
"Second Master Bao, since there's nothing wrong, I'll go back first."
Ignoring Baoyu's plea to stay, Qingwen walked straight into Daoxiang Village.
"Wait!"
Jia Baoyu grabbed Qingwen's wrist in desperation. Qingwen's face changed slightly, and she was about to break away when she looked up and saw Jia Baoyu's eyes filled with tears. She was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to react. p>
Isn't it true that she loves Baoyu... However, her sincere dedication still cannot get her what she wants most...
What Qingwen looks forward to is not seeing each other day and night, but that sense of security.
"Second Master Bao, let go!" Qingwen said with a hint of pleading in her tone, "Even if I am willing to come back, how will you face Madam? Even if you have begged Madam this time, if something happens again in the future, will you still do it?
Are you pleading for me again and again to protect me? Like Langeer?"
Qingwen asked a series of questions, her tone became more and more serious, and Jia Baoyu was so shocked that she couldn't help but let go of her hand.
"I..." He didn't know what to say and was speechless for a moment.
"Master Bao, you are wonderful, but you and I will eventually separate. Maybe my departure will be a good thing for you."
Qingwen retracted her clothes and saw that Jia Baoyu looked a little distracted. She couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, but after calming down, she continued to speak, but this time her tone was softer than ever before: "Second Master, it is extremely considerate for you to have Xi Ren by your side.
She is taking care of me, and Sheyue is also a wonderful person. With them two here, I feel relieved.
But there’s one more thing. You have to catch and protect these two people carefully! Don’t let them leave you!"
After that, Qingwen walked away.
Jia Baoyu looked at Qingwen's decisive figure with tears in his eyes. The last words Qingwen said made him unable to recover for a long time.
Xi Ren and She Yue were still worried and followed Jia Baoyu quietly without disturbing others. Seeing him standing blankly, they couldn't help but walked over. Jia Baoyu refused to say anything at first and just shed tears.
People are easy to say and only reveal a little bit.
Xiren and Sheyue looked at each other in confusion after hearing Qingwen's words, and then looked at each other. Each could see the complicated look in the other's eyes, especially Xiren.
However, Jia Baoyu finally calmed down after being comforted by the two of them, and was half-led and half-pushed back to Yihongyuan.
