Chapter 143 The small building listens to the spring rain all night
Zhang Ning returned to Changde City and went straight to Fuqian Street. The so-called Fuqian Street is the street in front of the gate of the government office. This kind of street name is very common in various cities. For example, the neighborhood in front of the county government office is usually called Xianqian Street.
.
The official residence of Changde Mansion is next to the government office. Wu Yong lives in the residence. There are two people watching. They do not restrict Wu Yong's movements, but they follow him all the time to monitor his every move. Zhang Ning has nothing to do now.
After finding Zhan Zhuli, he had no choice but to focus on Wu Yong.
He observed the location of the hotel and found that there was an inn across the street with a window upstairs that had a good view, so he sent Xu Wenjun to inquire about the room that happened to be empty. He immediately went into the inn and paid for a room on the street.
The three of them came upstairs, and the waiter with a white scarf on his shoulders came up to talk. Seeing this, he asked kindly: "There are few customers these days, and there is an empty room next door. Do you want to rent two rooms?" Zhang Ning thought for a moment.
He was doing it for business, but it took him a while to realize that it was really not suitable for him to live in the same room with two women. Even if the two women were his wives and concubines, it was rare for wives and concubines to live in the same room. Zhang Ning wanted to let his people see
It seemed more normal and reasonable, so I paid extra and booked the room next door.
The waiter kindly reminded me: "There is a kettle in the room. You can ask someone to turn on the water to make tea. After Youshi, the kitchen will boil hot water for washing your face and feet. If you need anything, go to the stairs and let me know."
"Okay, we get it." Zhang Ning greeted him nicely.
After entering the house, the Peach Blossom Fairy said angrily: "This guy is very verbose."
So Zhang Ning asked Wenjun to guard the door to prevent anyone from suddenly breaking in and hearing the conversation. Then he walked to the window and pulled down the bamboo curtain to cover it. He opened a crack and looked out, seeing the entrance of the hotel and half of the mansion.
Front Street is within sight, so this place is pretty good.
"Zhan Zhuli disappeared a while ago, so I sent two people to keep an eye on Wu Yong. But now he is in the way. Wu Yong can't get away. Zhan Zhuli can't contact him, so he can't lure the snake out of the hole." Zhang Ning lowered the curtain.
Said softly.
Peach Blossom Fairy followed his words and said: "Withdrawing the manpower suddenly now may make Wu Yong and others suspicious, and they are afraid of backfiring." After saying this, she poured boiling water from the kettle, quickly took out a small box from her pocket, and poured the water into it.
I put a few drops in, as if it was a poison test. Maybe people who travel around the world are used to it and are very vigilant outside, but Zhang Ning doesn't think there is anything wrong with the inn in front of the Yamen.
Zhang Ning stood in front of the window for a long time, thinking silently, thinking: Zhan Zhuli will try to contact Wu Yong, which is also a guess. It cannot be absolutely determined, but now he can only try this method, otherwise Zhan Zhuli will try to contact him in the dark.
Zhuli was really helpless.
It was half bright and half dark on the street downstairs, the sun was setting in the west, and it was almost dusk. At this time, he turned around and called Xu Wenjun over and said: "Wenjun will go back to Yuanshui Tea Garden to send a message to your grandfather and ask him to arrange it early tomorrow morning.
One thing." After he said that, he took a step closer to Wenjun and whispered beside her for a while. Xu Wenjun followed the order and walked out.
After a while, Peach Blossom Fairy suddenly asked softly and without thinking: "Will Wenjun come back tonight?"
Zhang Ning replied casually: "She's not coming back. I asked her to stay in the tea garden tonight." After he finished speaking, he felt that the Peach Blossom Fairy asked a strange question. He couldn't help but look up at her face, and saw her lowered eyebrows.
I can't see anything... In fact, even if she smiles and says that there are only two men and one woman left, Zhang Ning thinks it's normal. Although the things in front of her are quite disturbing, Peach Blossom Fairy is always so optimistic and often wrong.
Experienced people will not argue with Zhang Ning once they are familiar with him.
Unexpectedly, she did not continue speaking. She lowered her head and was silent for a while, and then said seriously: "We want to change the sentry and keep an eye on the hotel?"
"No, there's no point in following him. It's hard to happen to see Zhan Zhuli moving around Fuqian Street by chance," Zhang Ning said.
The sun gradually went down, and several gorgeous clouds appeared over the old and gray government offices. The buildings of the government offices were dim and ancient, forming an extreme contrast with the bright colors of the clouds.
As the saying goes, the sunset will travel a thousand miles without going out, which means that the weather will be fine with the sunset. Unexpectedly, there is no guarantee, and it started to rain lightly after dark. The dim light, the humid air, and the temperature seemed to be lower after nightfall. At this time,
The "hotel" didn't even have a TV. It was boring and cold. Zhang Ning said, "I'll rest here tonight... We also booked a room next door. Which one do you want to stay in?"
The Peach Blossom Fairy was silent for a moment and asked softly: "Ping An hates me so much?"
"Where are you talking about?" Zhang Ning was stunned, then turned around and pointed at the bed and said with a smile, "There is only one bed in a room. We can't sleep together. What are you talking about?"
Peach Blossom Fairy said: "Then you sleep and I sit."
Zhang Ning opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. He touched his forehead again and suddenly felt that the Peach Blossom Fairy was very strange these days. Instead of teasing, she was very uncomfortable. Maybe after a while she would burst out laughing and say something to tease you.
. But after a long silence, nothing like that happened.
Originally, it was already too late for a man and a woman to live together in the same room without feeling inappropriate, but now the atmosphere suddenly became a little ambiguous. For Zhang Ning, it was not a big deal. In modern society, the monogamy system allows for secret love.
It's also common. At this time, except for provoking those well-known women who care about honor and integrity, it's not a big deal to mess around with women outside.
However, Peach Blossom Fairy is an exception, because she can be regarded as Fang Ling's "best friend". If you don't pay attention to propriety, it can easily cause conflicts between women. Zhang Ning understands in his heart that there is no problem with the so-called three wives and four concubines, as are moral laws.
It's allowed, but I can't make the harem fight and cause trouble for my family, right? The key is that Zhang Ning didn't have any thoughts about the Peach Blossom Fairy from the beginning, so there is no need to cause trouble, especially since he has no children these days.
Long-lasting thoughts.
Just now, Peach Blossom Fairy said, "You sleep while I sit." For this reason, Zhang Ning couldn't chase her away or leave her, so he had to stay frozen for the time being.
Things in the world are very strange. If two people get along well together and can easily discuss things or chat, it will happen naturally; if they are silent together like now, there will be a lot of implicitness.
The indescribable thoughts.
The Peach Blossom Fairy was silent, and Zhang Ning was not a person who could talk when he was short of words. He walked around the room for a few steps, feeling quite bored, so he turned to face the bamboo curtain of the window to watch the night view of the long street. Even though it was in the center of the city,
It also gets quiet after nightfall, because there is no noise from cars on the road, and the drizzle outside the window makes a rustling sound, and the small sounds become clearer in the quiet night.
Somehow Zhang Ning's mind reappeared in that line of beautiful words, and he softly chanted: "The small building listened to the spring rain all night..."
Suddenly his back sank, and then his shoulder blades felt soft. He suddenly realized that Peach Blossom Fairy was hugging him from behind. He quickly turned around and gently grabbed her arm, wanting to make a joke, but unexpectedly he saw Peach Blossom Fairy's cheek.
There were tears on his face. He was stunned for a moment. He had known her for so long, and this was the first time he saw her like this. He remembered that when he first met this girl, she wanted to kill him, and she gave the impression that she was an old gangster. Isn't it murder?
A strong man with a belt on her head but nodding her head? Why did she suddenly feel very fragile tonight?
"You..." Zhang Ning put his hand on her arm and was speechless. He didn't know whether to push her or retract his hand.
Peach Blossom Fairy choked up and said, "Can you let me hold you?"
Zhang Ning sighed slightly and let her hold her, thinking that he was a man and still afraid of being held by a woman? He couldn't see the woman's tears, and his heart softened, so he comforted her and said, "If you have something on your mind, tell me.
It might feel better."
Fairy Peach Blossom couldn't help but wiped away her tears, showed a smile and said, "What can I have on my mind? Aren't you worried about Zhan Zhuli's informing?"
Zhang Ning pretended to be relaxed and said: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. The matter is now over, there is no point in worrying."
Peach Blossom Fairy suddenly became gentle at this time, and said softly: "Ping An is a person who can make people feel at ease. It feels good to hold you."
Zhang Ning said: "I feel uneasy because I have done something wrong. I have never done anything wrong." Peach Blossom Fairy said: "You really have never done anything wrong?" After hearing this, he thought for a long time.
He had lived for many years, and he had never done anything particularly bad that made him feel guilty. He had killed someone the year before last, but he believed that people like Peng Tianheng deserved their death, and there was no psychological burden for him to kill someone. So he said calmly: "
Is it considered a bad thing to steal someone else's persimmons before?"
"Pfft..." Peach Blossom Fairy burst into tears and laughed. She was amused, and her face immediately turned red.
When Zhang Ning saw this, he said something nice and gently took her arm and moved it away. Otherwise, if Peach Blossom Fairy's body was pressed against her for a while, he would definitely get hard, and it would be really difficult to hold her against her.
The Peach Blossom Fairy did not continue to pester her. She stopped smiling and whispered: "I know that I am not good and I am not worthy... I am a woman who travels around the world in public. I have no status or honor to speak of. I... can't change it."
, we can only live like this, there should be no more daydreaming..."
Zhang Ning listened carefully. Perhaps it was because the night was too quiet and his mood became more delicate. The Peach Blossom Fairy spoke very slowly. He gradually put himself in her shoes. For a moment, he seemed to have become the Peach Blossom Fairy, and the next he found her again.
I lost myself and felt like I had seen each other before.
"There is no hope." Zhang Ning interrupted abruptly.
Fairy Peach Blossom looked at his face in slight surprise. His face was very quiet, and seemed to be addicted to something. Suddenly Fairy Peach Blossom felt that her heart was so close to him.
Zhang Ning recalled the inferiority and despair he felt towards others after suffering from a terminal illness in his previous life, as well as some other details. It seemed that the ending of life could be seen at a glance. He whispered: "I feel the same way."
Still feeling the word "Peach Blossom Fairy" made Peach Blossom Fairy's eyes blurry. Zhang Ning noticed her expression at this time, so he gently squeezed her palm and said, "I will treat you well."
