Chapter 76 Concern
Chapter 76 Concern
Ling Zhi was taken to a courtyard alone by Xiao Yan, except for a few servants who stood guard outside the door and waited on him, Xiao Yan did not let others follow.
Lingzhi stared at the hand on her wrist, trying to shake it off, but failed.
He opened his tightly pursed lips slightly, looking at the back of the other party, hesitant to speak.
Xiao Yan stood by the well, half squatting, and poured a basin of clear water by herself, her eyes fell on Lingzhi's bloody hands.
"Sit down and wash."
Lingzhi turned her head and looked outside the courtyard gate, Xiao Yan whispered: "They won't come in."
Xiao Yan's voice was extremely low, as if leaning over to whisper in Lingzhi's ear.
It was inconvenient for Lingzhi to move her hands, so she almost covered Xiao Yan's close ear and jumped to the other side.
He felt that Xiao Yan seemed a little different, and he couldn't tell what kind of change it was.
Xiao Yan put away the wooden basin, brought a bench, and placed it against the corridor to avoid rainwater from splashing on it.
He put on a gentle expression, looking at Ling Zhi who avoided him like a little rabbit, all kinds of thoughts were full of joy.
"Come here quickly."
Only then did Lingzhi sit on the low stool with a few twisted thoughts, with lowered eyebrows, and carefully washed away the blood stains on his hands with clean water.
After washing, Lingzhi turned her back to avoid Xiao Yan's sight, and subconsciously sped up her speech: "It's clean, I'm going back."
Xiao Yan stretched her fingers, and pulled Lingzhi's clothes back slightly.
Lingzhi was not prepared, and was pushed back by Xiao Yan with less than half the strength, and sat back on the low stool.
He raised his face slightly, his dark eyes were looking straight at Xiao Yan's.
Lingzhi has been busy today. In the morning, he went to Yaocheng with Lan Wenxuan to treat the victims of the disaster in Yayun Village. In the afternoon, he was summoned by the county magistrate to rush to Yaocheng without stopping. He just put his luggage in the yard where he was temporarily staying and changed his body. The clothes are given to the wounded and sick victims to be healed.
If Xiao Yan hadn't appeared suddenly to take him away, Lingzhi might still be busy treating patients at this moment.
Ordinary people's physical fitness is relatively good, and they can't bear it after a busy day, let alone Lingzhi.
His black hair was already messed up, and a small lock was wet with sweat and stuck to the side of his white neck.Whiter than the neck flesh is the complexion, the bright red lips reveal a bit of paleness caused by fatigue, beautiful and fragile.
But Xiao Yan clearly saw a persistent tenacity in Lingzhi's eyes. This tenacity is not a strong sense of existence, but like a green shoot with a small root that will not break no matter what, it shocks people's hearts and breeds pity .
It was getting late, and the rain became much heavier at night. Under the red night, a few lightning bolts struck like sharp claws, and the thunder rumbled loudly, and Lingzhi's heart jumped nervously.
Xiao Yan said: "Let's go to the house and have something to eat," and casually gave out a reason to seduce, "Only when you are full can you have the energy to do things."
Lingzhi didn't move, the water floating in from the eaves of the corridor seeped into her clothes, and the light gray summer clothes were slightly wet.
Compared with the brocade clothes provided by Taishifu for Lingzhi to wear, Xiao Yan doubted that this rough clothes would scratch Lingzhi's skin.
He said: "It's raining too much, follow me into the house, okay?"
Lingzhi couldn't get out of this courtyard by herself.
It was raining heavily, and no one brought an umbrella in. It was obviously just Xiao Yan's order, but he didn't ask anyone to bring it. He wanted Lingzhi to rest for a while.
In the past six months, Xiao Yan never broke the news of Lingzhi. To Lingzhi, they may have been separated for half a year, but in Xiao Yan's heart, it seemed that none of this had happened.
Lingzhi's experience, every move, every fixed time, someone will record it into a notebook and send it to the Grand Master's Mansion.
Xiao Yan almost witnessed Lingzhi's stumbling growth.
Lingzhi has a kind of naive and dull energy in dealing with people, but he is willing to learn everything seriously. If no one is around him to support him, he may suffer a little bit.
Xiao Yan tried his best not to think about the young doctor who had fantasies about Lingzhi. He repeatedly struggled between his deepening longing and why he didn't force Lingzhi to stay by his side. When he executed some orders, he would pick up the little book that recorded Lingzhi's daily life and turn it over and over again.
Watching Lingzhi sit on the side of the field for half a day just to wait for a cauliflower to bloom, Lingzhi delivered a village woman and a cow, and so on, these are small and insignificant trivial things, but Xiao Yan can read them repeatedly. Read carefully.
It is these detailed records in these texts, and the booklets packed in gold silk vines became Xiao Yan's desire to curb some kind of selfishness.
Everyone in the world says that love is fearless and selfless. If you like someone, you will fulfill the other person and not seek yourself.
However, Xiao Yan couldn't let go of Lingzhi so generously to achieve the so-called "selfless" love.
So Xiao Yan doesn't think it's right or wrong for him to look at Lingzhi through other eyes. At least, when he feels distressed and wants to take this person to his side and take good care of him, he also cares about each other bit by bit Seedling-like, the speed of slow growth has produced a sprouting heart bud.
Being alone with each other was kind of awkward.
Lingzhi couldn't get away, he originally wanted to run out in the rain as soon as possible, but before he could take a step, a white light blasted from the sky forced him to retract his legs that were eager to try.
He was a little afraid of the rainstorm and thunderstorm, and when he saw Xiao Yan's smiling eyes, he turned his head to the side and didn't say a word.
Xiao Yan was very patient with him: "Follow me into the house first, and have something to eat."
The three consecutive thunderclaps successfully made Lingzhi retreat from the corridor to the house, Xiao Yan raised her hand and immediately a servant quietly held up the tray and delivered the hot food to the table without looking sideways.
The rich aroma of the food made Lingzhi couldn't help but take another look. Speaking of the dishes in front of him, whether it was a coincidence or someone did it on purpose, Lingzhi found that although the few dishes were not expensive, they were all his favorites in recent days Small farm dishes.
Xiao Yan looked as usual, calm and gentle.
He pulled out the chair: "Come and sit and see if it suits your appetite."
Xiao Yan scalded a pair of bowls and chopsticks with hot water, placed the bowls and chopsticks in front of Lingzhi, filled another bowl of soup, and put it next to Lingzhi after sitting down.
Xiao Yan said, "Have a taste?"
Lingzhi picked up the wooden spoon in the soup bowl and took a sip of the soup. It was delicious and sweet, and after a few sips, the feeling of hunger surged.
Seeing a doctor is comparable to physical labor. After a busy day, he didn't even have the time to stop to drink his saliva, and there was a layer of dry skin on the corners of his lips.
After moistening his throat and lips with soup, Lingzhi turned his face to face Xiao Yan cautiously. This person didn't look at him, and Lingzhi ate much more freely.
After not seeing him for half a year, he observed Xiao Yan with his eyes, and found that the other party's face had weakened a lot. The majesty and elegance in his eyebrows and eyes were concealed by a simple and plain black robe, like a sharp knife sheathed, and the light shrank.
Xiao Yan lowered her eyes slightly, took a sip of clear soup leisurely, and focused on tasting Lingzhi's favorite taste recently.
The man's thin lips curved, and a gentle arc appeared on the corners of his lips.
Xiao Yan seemed to be drinking the soup with a sinking heart, not disturbing Lingzhi's gaze.
Waiting for Lingzhi to put away her mind and forbid herself to think about other people's affairs.He ate in small bites, behaved in a gentle manner, and only ate the two plates in front of him.
Lingzhi's appetite is much better than half a year ago. He works every day, and over time he can eat half a bowl of rice and drink an extra bowl of soup.
It's a pity that the food that Lingzhi ate into his body still didn't make him grow any longer, and the extra flesh grew on his waist and buttocks.
The food is seventy percent full, Lingzhi gently puts the bowl and chopsticks away.When he got up and wanted to leave, Xiao Yan raised his deep eyebrows and cast his eyes on his side face.
"This time Yuezhou was seriously affected by the rainy season. I specially asked the emperor to come and inspect it. Nine cities in Yuezhou were trapped by floods. Yaocheng built the largest dam in the Yan Dynasty. It is urgent to send people to strengthen the dam."
Yuezhou has a vast territory, with the most cities in the lower part of the state.Although there are still a few relatively poor small towns, such as Xucheng where Yayun Village is located, and Yaocheng, Yuezhou is rich in water and soil, suitable for slow development.
The little emperor didn't want to let Xiao Yan go to Yuezhou, fearing that he would support himself with his troops.
But with Yandu where Xiao Yan was located, even though the little emperor wanted to take back some power, he couldn't do it.
Xiao Yan intentionally or unintentionally knocked some officials and ministers to submit letters. After weighing it, the emperor finally decided to let Xiao Yan personally inspect Yuezhou.
In today's prosperous and prosperous age, Yan Dynasty lives and works in peace and contentment, if Xiao Yan provokes the flames of war, then he will become the eternal sinner of Yan Dynasty.Moreover, Yuezhou does not have enough rich cities to support soldiers.
Xiao Yan secretly promoted several forces, beat back and forth between the officials and the little emperor, and waited for the emperor to finish thinking and draft the imperial edict, which delayed Xiao Yan's journey for three days.
At the moment, the delayed time seems to be just right.
Xiao Yan didn't have to deliberately wait for an opportunity after arriving, because the opportunity fell into his hands accurately.
Yaocheng and Yayun Village are two neighboring places, if he wants to see Lingzhi, he can arrange a reason that is reasonable and does not make Lingzhi too awkward to avoid.
On the way, he heard that the doctors who went to Yaocheng for rescue came from Yakumo Village. His heart skipped a beat, and he went straight to several courtyards for patients after returning from the front line.
No, no matter how ingenious the arrangement is, it is not as ingenious as the right time and place. He and Lingzhi Lingzhi will meet today and today, and it is exactly what they want.
Lingzhi would probably not take the initiative to talk to Xiao Yan, but Xiao Yan wanted to tell the other party.
Xiao Yan said in a slow tone, "I'm worried about you, so I meet you."
If the man's gaze had any substance, it almost crushed Lingzhi from head to toe.
He stiffened his neck and pressed it against the point of the void. After a while, he said dryly, "Don't send me any more things."
He didn't have the money to entrust the people in the official post to transfer back to Yandu.
Xiao Yan was noncommittal, pretending to be deaf and dumb: "It's just some worthless gadgets."
Ling Zhi: ...
But those gadgets are all made by Xiao Yan himself, small and exquisite, and they don't take up much space in the house.
Xiao Yan coaxed him: "Accept it."
Lingzhi's eyes drifted to the rain outside the door.
"It's late, I'm still going back..."
A few bolts of lightning in the front yard illuminated the stone slabs, and Lingzhi paused as she was about to take a step, and rushed forward bravely.
Xiao Yan chased after him, took the umbrella sent by the servant outside the door, and loosely held Lingzhi's wrist: "I'll see you off."
……
Lingzhi lowered her eyes, staring at the hand that easily circled him, looking left and right, trying to get rid of this person.
Xiao Yan let go of her palm: "Let's go, your clothes are a little wet, go back to take a bath and change again, and rest early tonight."
Lingzhi nodded indiscriminately, wondering if she took Xiao Yan's words to heart.
He returned to the room where he was staying, and the hot water brought into the room by the servant came faster than him.
Xiao Yan stood under the rain holding on to the umbrella, and when Lingzhi closed the door, she turned to look at herself, and then waved to him.
Ling Zhi: ...
With a tense face, he quickly locked the door behind him, feeling a little annoyed.
What, why did Xiao Yan pretend to be very familiar with him.
The author says:
There are paintings of Ganoderma lucidum and Taishi people in the folder.
thank you all.
