Epilogue (1): Frost and snow fall all over the hair, and it is also counted as white head
Thinking of this, Master Ning trotted through a small door that separated the backyards of the Jiang family and the Gu family, and entered the Jiang family's backyard again. He arrived at the second floor in a familiar way, but only saw three tearful and unlucky people.
Dan Zheng was cleaning up the mahjong on the table in despair. When he saw Master Ning's appearance, he immediately trembled with fright and quickly said that they didn't have a penny now.
Ning Yuan waved his hand to indicate that he was not here to ask for money. He glanced around and seemed not to notice Man Yue's figure, so he lowered his voice and asked Jiang Mufeng and the others:
"Where is your Sister Man Yue?"
"Go back to your room...what do you want to do?"
"I have something to talk to you, Sister Man Yue. You need to go somewhere else for a while." Master Ning said mysteriously: "Here is the red envelope I gave you... After you divide it, I will temporarily
Don’t show up around here...understand?”
Jiang Mufeng and Jiang Chaoyun nodded like garlic, took the thick purchase fee and turned to leave. Only Jiang Muyu, a little girl who had never betrayed Miss Man Yue in ordinary times, was still hesitant and entangled. However, after a moment
Thinking of the empty wallet she now had on hand, she quickly convinced herself, grabbed the red envelope and said sadly:
"Cousin-in-law, this is my first time...don't let me down..."
"..."
Little girl, what you said is that you want me to be forced to break in, right?
Master Ning, who had a black hair, quickly expelled a few idlers, coughed lightly and knocked on Miss Man Yue's door:
"Man Yue, I have something to ask you."
"It's very late. I have something to talk about tomorrow."
"This is business!" Master Ning said seriously: "Did you just give me money?"
"..."
Ning Yuan couldn't see the expression on the girl's face clearly through the door, but from the silence in the room for a moment, he could infer that Miss Man Yue was probably thinking about opening the door.
Things went as Master Ning expected. The door opened the next second, and Jiang Manyue, dressed in home clothes, suddenly appeared in front of Ning Yuan. Such a soft girl's posture slightly restrained the sharpness of the tea emperor, and her red lips
The plain face looks particularly attractive under the warm light.
Looking at such a seductive face, Master Ning once recalled the scene where he and Jiang Manyue hugged each other and kissed deeply on New Year's Eve. However, at this moment, Jiang Xihua's eyes did not have the original joy, but instead
It's a slightly cold anger.
"What do you want to say?"
Seeing that my sister-in-law was finally willing to open the door, Master Ning quickly held the door frame with his hands to prevent Jiang Xihua from closing the door and leaving if she disagreed: "Of course I'm settling the score with you... Look, you said you didn't want me to leave.
You lent them money and then paid me back all the money I gave you...but what you paid back was only the principal, and what about the interest?"
"You don't borrow money for more than two hours. What kind of loan shark calculates interest on a minute-by-minute basis?"
"Of course it's my dream fund here." Master Ning said with a smile: "You have to make a profit when you open a business, right? Otherwise, will I be taken advantage of in vain?"
"Go find them yourself."
"They have no money." Master Ning said simply: "You have money, and I only want your money."
"How much is the interest?" Jiang Xihua asked expressionlessly.
"Three yuan and twenty-one cents...Only transfers are accepted, no cash is accepted~"
The girl glanced at him, took out her mobile phone and was about to transfer money to him. As soon as the transfer was out of the dark room, she was about to throw a certain scumbag into the darkness again, but Master Ning grabbed her wrist with quick eyes and hands:
“There’s still interest left!”
"There are many."
"Not much, just chat with me for a while and you can settle the matter." Ning Yuan said: "You stepped on me during the New Year's Eve dinner today."
“The location was too crowded and I couldn’t see clearly.”
"..."
Look, are you speaking in human language... If you didn't see clearly, what you accidentally stepped on could have almost crushed my foot?
"Now, you see you also admitted that you stepped on my foot. It's hard to say whether there will be any sequelae... In order to ensure that I will not be in any danger period in the future... you have to allow me to contact you at any time to ask for compensation.
.”
"What do you want?"
"Can you unblock me from various social software?" Master Ning said with a shy face: "I think this request is not too much..."
"No need to discuss."
"Ehehehe...Okay, okay! Then at least one phone number will do...I promise to only call you when necessary and never send you random text messages!"
Jiang Manyue hesitated for a moment, seeming to think that such a strict defense without leaving any loopholes would not be conducive to her return to the position of Emperor of Heaven, so she acquiesced. When Master Ning saw the remarkable results of this wave of battles, he said excitedly: "Then
...You see, although the phone call is unblocked... But wouldn't it be very troublesome if my wound bursts at night and I don't have time to call you? Why don't I stay overnight at Jiang's house tonight? I think your bed is quite big...
"
"hehe."
Jiang Manyue sneered twice and clenched her fists silently. Master Ning saw Emperor Jiang Tian making an attack gesture and quickly whispered: "It's not impossible if I don't sleep in your bed, then I can sleep on the sofa..."
"Can't."
"A rare moment of reunion... Man Yue, can you bear to let me not have a good talk with you before I leave?" Master Ning stepped forward and got closer to the girl. He lowered his head and stared at Man Yue's beautiful little face so close at hand, his eyes
There is an unspeakable nostalgia:
"Funyue... We haven't talked calmly for a long, long time... I know I was wrong, but can you give me a little chance?"
"Life is short. I want to spend more time with you doing things I have never experienced before, instead of wishing for each other and not letting go when we are old."
"But you still haven't changed your mind, haven't you?" Jiang Manyue was silent for a moment and then asked softly: "I have no intention of changing my mind, and I may not even change my mind in this life."
"But…"
"Go back, it's very late, it's time for you to look back home." Jiang Manyue interrupted Ning Yuan's words, her eyes full of complexity. She even issued an eviction order before she could even hear Ning Yuan's answer, as if she was afraid of Ning Yuan.
See your own confusion and strangeness.
She pretended to be indifferent towards Ning Yuan, which was a kind of trouble for her. She wanted to completely let go and forget everything that happened in the past, but when she finally heard Grandpa Gu asking him to be with Gu Guanxue,
But she couldn't help but stepped on his foot.
She clearly had no position or reason to be angry. This behavior could even be said to be completely contradictory to her attitude. But she did it anyway.
There was no reason, but she was angry for no reason. She was angry at the way Ning Yuan and Gu Guanxue interacted together, as if she was unhappy when Gu Guanxue took away her favorite toy. Of course, Ning Yuan didn't know what method he used to get her close.
Grandpa Gu did an impeccable job in recovering his health, but she still seemed to feel very unhappy.
She didn't discuss it with herself beforehand, and didn't come to her immediately after she finished... These seemed to be reasons why she should be angry, but they didn't seem to be any of them.
All of these can be summed up in one sentence: I actively lost my girlfriend’s identity, but I didn’t completely lose my girlfriend’s mentality.
Jiang Manyue had never seen such a self-contradictory self. Later, her conversation with Mr. Gu in front of the hospital bed helped her clarify her thoughts a little: I was right, he should be the one who needs to change!
But before that...you still have to be angry when you should be angry, and you still have to vent out the emotions that need to be vented.
Snowflakes fell outside the window, and the snow gradually became lighter. The lights of thousands of houses were reunited at this moment, and the moonlight on the horizon also looked thin and cold. The custom of staying up late on New Year's Eve has been gradually forgotten, and people dispersed in the silent night.
Go home and rest, waiting for the cheerful Happy New Year on the first day of the Lunar New Year tomorrow morning.
However, even though the night was getting darker little by little, there was still a light on in front of the desk in Man Yue's room. After Ning Yuan left, she sat alone and stared at the air in front of her in silence for a long time, as if she didn't feel the passage of time. In the end
She gently opened the drawer, took out a letter inside, unfolded it and gently rubbed the last page of the letter, which showed the scene of them riding the Ferris wheel together.
He just said before leaving... Does that mean he will leave Yanjing early tomorrow morning?
The girl gently picked up the phone, and the screen was completely silent. There was no call or message from anyone at such a late hour to relieve the loneliness.
Maybe she should give him a chance to say more, at least this way she wouldn't be so upset that she would stay up all night.
Maybe this is God's best arrangement...if you miss it...just let it pass.
She raised her eyes lightly. The heating in the room made her feel a little hot. Man Yue stood up and slowly approached the window sill. She gently opened the closed window. In the distance, Gu Guanxue's room was dark and the cold air outside was
A few snowflakes rolled into the room and disappeared after a moment.
At this time, the mobile phone that had been silent suddenly rang. The sound was particularly abrupt in the empty and lonely night. Jiang Manyue gently picked up the mobile phone, and her heart suddenly moved.
It's Ning Yuan.
At 3:12 in the morning, a certain scumbag broke his promise and made a harassing phone call. The girl hesitated for a moment and finally answered the call gently.
The scumbag on the other end of the phone was breathing heavily, and there was a faint sound of wind. Although it was slightly noisy, it made Jiang Manyue feel at ease inexplicably at this night.
"Man Yue...are you asleep?" Ning Yuan asked cautiously.
"..."
"Do you think I'm sleepwalking?" Jiang Manyue replied faintly.
"No, I'm afraid you just happen to be a little sleepy..." Master Ning touched his cold fingers, with a hint of joy in his tone: "Is it convenient for you to come down now? Come to your yard."
"I'm waiting for you here. I have something to tell you."
The girl was slightly startled when she heard this. She approached the window and looked down. A figure waving in the snowflakes quickly attracted her attention. Pieces of snowflakes fell on his shoulders and hair, as if they were trying to wrap him up.
A snowman, with an ugly little snowman on his hand, seems to be a failed work of stacking.
I stayed up late at night and came here to build a snowman. Who can I show it to?
It's really stupid to pile them up so ugly.
Jiang Manyue was thinking like this, but suddenly a smile appeared on her face like the spring breeze thawing. She put on her windbreaker and scarf, opened the door and went downstairs, and met Ning Yuan at a long distance in the wide space of the backyard.
They looked at each other and then took steps towards each other.
The girl put her hands in her pockets and walked slowly towards Ning Yuan. With a smile on her face, Ning Yuan also walked slowly towards Jiang Manyue. Snowflakes fell on the girl's face bit by bit.
Between the long hair and the scarf, when the two finally faced each other at the midpoint, the girl also vaguely wanted to become a brand new little snowman.
But such a delicate and beautiful snowman would not exist in this world. Ning Yuan reached out his hand and brushed away some crystal ice flowers on the girl's cheeks, and said with a smile:
"I heard people say that when frost and snow fall on your hair, your hair will turn gray... When the moon is full, we will turn gray."
Jiang Manyue's heart moved slightly. She didn't hide or dodge, letting his cold fingers touch her delicate and fair skin. She stared at the boy in front of her quietly, her eyes seemed to ask him why he was calling her so late.
come out.
"I know you are angry and have been refusing to talk to me properly. I also know that I have no reason for you to talk to me properly. It is my fault. I cannot argue with this... But the full moon... I don't want to endure it anymore.
Already."
"I may have to go back tomorrow. I haven't been able to spend time with my family at home at the end of the year. I feel sorry for them...but I don't regret coming to Yanjing to see you and Gu Guanxue."
"Although Mr. Gu at Xiaoxue's side has improved a lot, this is still a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution. The Gu family needs an heir other than Xiaoxue. I plan to help her first, and then help them train an heir step by step.
"
"You may think that I am bragging, but I am confident that this process will not be long or short. It will take three years at the earliest, until the third generation of the Gu family has grown up.
, and then it is up to them to decide whether they are willing to take on this responsibility... I have tried it out before, and the little girl Gu Huaige seems to be quite willing. Xiaoxue also has great confidence in her, and maybe she will wait until she becomes an adult.
Xiaoxue and I can be the hands-off shopkeepers..."
Ning Yuan talked nonchalantly, and Jiang Manyue listened quietly. When the snowflakes fell, it seemed that time was frozen by the girl's deep gaze.
"Originally, I wanted to find a chance to have a chat with you early tomorrow morning, but I couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, and it was easy to sleep in the heated room, so I had to go out for a walk to get some fresh air... This snowman is made to look like you and look cute.
.It’s just that my hands were too cold after half of the pile…so I didn’t pay much attention to the details…Man Yue…Man Yue, are you listening to me?”
The girl looked at the clowning snowman behind Ning Yuan and remained silent without speaking. She seemed to be in a daze, and she seemed to be thinking carefully about every word Ning Yuan said. Finally, she gently raised her eyes and looked at Ning Yuan:
"You mean you want me to forgive you?"
"There's no need to forgive right away... Actually, it's okay not to forgive... As long as Man Yue doesn't have a cold war with me like before..." Master Ning replied cautiously.
"Actually, it's easy for you to solve it now, right? Gu Guanxue likes you, and that silly girl Lu Jiujiu will most likely be your master in this life. Both of them have a much higher chance of compromising than me."
"I should have said before that I have no intention of changing my mind, and it is very likely that I will not change my mind in this life." Jiang Manyue said quietly: "Even so, do you still choose to waste your time on me?"
"Maybe in the end, you might lose the other two people because of me?"
"That's the mental preparation I've made a long time ago." Ning Yuan said softly: "No matter what the final outcome is, even if I lose completely, I still want to give it a try."
"Do you want to help Gu Guanxue get the freedom she wants?"
"Um."
"Don't you think that if you reconcile with me, I might stop you from helping her?"
"There is a possibility, but I am more willing to believe that Man Yue, you actually want to watch Xiaoxue come out." Ning Yuan nodded lightly and smiled: "Otherwise, you might not choose to be with Gu Guanxue.
We traveled thousands of miles together to go to school."
"Even so, it is based on the premise that there is no such strange relationship between me and her." Jiang Manyue snorted coldly: "Why do you think I can be generous enough to tolerate others using my things for three years?
, doesn’t she always say that I am stingy?”
"Of course it was Xiaoxue who was talking nonsense..." Master Ning reached out and pinched Miss Man Yue's cold little face, and chuckled: "I have always found you, Man Yue, to be generous and considerate."
"Then I'm afraid you've got the wrong person." Jiang Manyue sneered and pinched her back with her backhand: "I'm really a stingy person."
"That's okay." Ning Yuan continued with a smile: "I like you no matter how stingy you are. No matter what you look like, as long as you are you, I will always like you very much."
"..."
The strength in the girl's hand gradually became lighter, and finally she gently lowered her hand. After being silent for a while, she said lightly:
"You are not allowed to interfere in the Gu family's affairs after three years."
Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment and quickly reacted:
"good."
"In Yanjing, you only have me as your girlfriend."
"..."
"good."
"Don't let me see you making out with Gu Guanxue, otherwise I won't guarantee you will do anything impulsive."
"Of course...ahem...Actually, Xiaoxue and I have always been very well-behaved in terms of affection and etiquette..."
"I want to compensate my grandpa for those two bottles of wine."
"Um...okay~"
"The snowman is too ugly. Let's build another one tomorrow morning."
"Okay~"
"And... you want to marry me."
Jiang Manyue used the calmest tone and said such an astonishing sentence on this snowy night. Ning Yuan was silent for a while after hearing the words, and then gently held the girl in his arms.
"good."
The girl leaning on Ning Yuan's arms had a calm look on her face. Her thick clothes blocked her heartbeat, but it could not hide the affection between the two of them embracing each other at the moment.
Since you are already prepared to be entangled with me for the rest of your life, and you may not be able to find happiness in your old age...then just come...
I want to see whether you or I will compromise in the end.
