Silent Lover 2 (Tanhua) - Chap 77
Chapter 77
The dinner was passed on, and it was some light Jingguo dishes, the soup was also a herbal diet for nourishing qi and blood, and there was a bowl of stewed donkey-hide gelatin for dessert.
Song Liqing’s eyes were inconvenient, so Pei Xingxu helped him pick up vegetables and feed him himself. His eyes were always on Song Liqing. Not only was he not impatient, but he enjoyed the time when he could eat quietly with Song Liqing.
“Steamed black-bone chicken with red dates, pork blood balls, kombu spinach, roasted beef… Li Qing, what do you want to eat first? Or a bowl of soup?” Pei Xingxu asked.
Song Liqing’s small face wrinkled.
“It’s these again.” Song Liqing resisted, “Is there deer antler in the soup? It’s fishy, ​​take it away.”
“Okay, if it smells bad, just take it away.”
Pei Xingxu had no choice but to signal for the servant to bring down the medicinal soup.
“Don’t choose anything else.” Pei Xingxu picked up a piece of black chicken for him, and said in a coaxing tone, “Eat a chicken leg first, it will be good for your health and give you strength.”
Song Liqing reluctantly picked up the chicken legs and put them in his mouth. He didn’t like meat dishes at first, but Pei Xingxu always asked him to eat meat dishes, which made him even more bored.
“No matter how good your body is, what’s the use if you don’t have to have a baby.”
Song Liqing bit the chicken hard, speaking vaguely.
“Haha.” Pei Xingxu was amused by him, “You don’t need to have a baby, but you have to get married. If you don’t have enough to eat, what should you do if you pass out during the church visit?”
Speaking of getting married, Song Liqing’s expression froze for a moment.
He remembered that he had promised Pei Xingxu to marry him long ago, but just thinking about it made him feel uncomfortable.
He doesn’t want to get married.
“Brother Xingxu.” Song Liqing asked in embarrassment, “Can we not get married?”
Pei Xingxu’s hand holding vegetables paused in the air, and finally put a piece of kombu in Song Liqing’s bowl.
“Why? Don’t you want to be my queen?”
Pei Xingxu asked with a smile, but the smile was a bit far-fetched.
“It’s not…”
Song Liqing originally had complicated feelings for Pei Xingxu, but now his sanity is damaged, let alone why.
“It’s good to be your queen, and you’re good to me. I’m just… I’m just…” Song Liqing hesitated and asked, “But I’ve already been married.”
As soon as these words came out, not only Pei Xingxu’s expression froze, but even Jun Qiyu who was standing at the door suddenly raised his head.
He didn’t dare to speak all the time, and Song Liqing was more afraid to hear his voice than to hear the scream of a ghost.
Looking at Song Liqing, Guan Sheng and Pei Xingxu’s happy family of three, Jun Qiyu felt an indescribable sourness in his heart.
But I’ve already been married…
This sentence made Jun Qiyu cheer up.
It means that he has not forgotten at all, and he still regards this matter as very important!
Jun Qiyu had the feeling of being resurrected from the dead.
Pei Xingxu said softly: “So what if we were married? Li Qing, have you forgotten? You have already reconciled with him.”
“We divorced…” Song Liqing seemed to be recalling the past, and murmured, “Yes, we divorced, the big devil said to divorce me.”
Jun Qiyu involuntarily took a step forward, almost shouting with his mouth open.
“No!” Jun Qiyu said with a suppressed voice, “He didn’t divorce you!”
Song Liqing frowned when he heard his voice.
“Brother Xingxu, who is standing at the door?”
Pei Xingxu glared at Jun Qiyu, blaming him for being so impatient.
“Oh, a… distant relative.”
“Distant relative?” Song Liqing was puzzled.
Pei Xingxu made it up indiscriminately: “Yes, a cousin, he is going to come to our wedding.”
“Oh.” Song Liqing was relieved and said happily, “Then why did you let your cousin stand at the door? Cousin, come quickly.”
Jun Qiyu was overwhelmed by flattery, Song Liqing finally warmed to him once in a while, but it’s a once-in-a-lifetime time!
But he was too close and afraid of revealing his secrets, so he scared Song Liqing away.
After struggling again and again, Jun Qiyu didn’t know whether to go or not.
Pei Xingxu coughed and said, “Cousin, you are too, you don’t talk when you come, you haven’t eaten dinner, right? Let’s take a seat together.”
“Yes, yes.” Song Liqing said, “Come and have dinner together, it’s best to eat all of these, and don’t keep any of them for me.”
It can be seen how much Song Liqing hates eating these foods.
“okay.”
Jun Qiyu deliberately changed his voice, and only said two words briefly, so as not to be seen through.
Song Liqing fumbled and pushed the vegetable bowl towards Jun Qiyu.
“Eat quickly.” Song Liqing looked at his blurred outline and said, “Cousin, you are so big, you should like to eat meat, right?”
Jun Qiyu followed his heart and said, “I like it.”
In order to eat less of these meaty dishes, Song Liqing pushed almost all of them away, and most of the dishes that nourished Qi and nourished blood went into the stomachs of those who least needed nourishment.
The official student sitting on Pei Xingxu’s lap was eating a piece of milk dumpling with great relish. As soon as Jun Qiyu came, he stared at Jun Qiyu with round eyes, and then stretched out his short hands to pat Jun Qiyu, but his limbs It was short and clumsy, and the person missed it and almost fell off his legs.
“Bad stuff!” The officer pouted and uttered a new vocabulary.
“Huh?” Pei Xingxu said pleasantly, “Officials and students, where did you learn to swear? You can’t swear at people, especially guests.”
The official student babbled and repeated to Jun Qiyu.
“Bad stuff…bad stuff…”
Jun Qiyu rubbed his nose, why doesn’t even a child like him?
Is he naturally so annoying?
Babies learning the tongue is naturally immersing in their ears and eyes, but the instigator is a little embarrassed at this time.
Song Liqing smiled and apologized and said, “Cousin, he didn’t scold you, he scolded someone else.”
“fine.”
Jun Qiyu answered briefly.
Song Liqing turned his head and reprimanded with guilt: “What’s the matter with you, official student? The good ones don’t learn all the bad ones…I, I never taught you to swear.”
Jun Qiyu still doesn’t know where.
Most of the officials and students learned the word “bad things” from Song Liqing, and they said it in a decent way, but with an angry tone.
Song Liqing usually mentioned him as a bad guy, right?
Jun Qiyu didn’t know whether to be happy or sad, at least he was mentioned…it was better than not mentioned at all.
This was the most embarrassing meal Jun Qiyu had ever had. he had to hold his throat while talking, but also watched Song Liqing and Pei Xingxu get close, and also gained the status of a “distant cousin”.
The mighty little devil Jun Qiyu has never been so humble.
At night, Jun Qiyu sat on the roof of the palace to breathe. He held a jug of wine in his hand as water to drink, but he was hard to get drunk, and Loulan’s fruit wine was not intoxicating. The more he drank, the more sober he became.
This is also the most relaxing day for him in more than a year.
Song Liqing is still alive, this is more important than anything else, he can at least take off half of the burden of guilt, and in the rest of the time, he tries his best to make up for the love he should have given long ago.
However, even the seven or eight-year-old Song Liqing was so afraid of him, so scared that he would run away in a panic when he heard the sound.
He was terrified.
So I engraved my fear of him in my instinct.
To hide from him, to run away from him.
But Jun Qiyu really wanted to tell him that there is no need to hide, he has really changed a lot, and he will never do anything to hurt him again.
But Jun Qiyu had no chance, not even a chance to get close.
You can only watch from afar, watch and guard from afar.
Jun Qiyu has a new understanding of the word love.
It turns out that when you love someone, you are first humbled into the dust.
Jun Qiyu was lying on the eaves, the jug in his hand rolled down from the roof, hitting the ground and blooming broken porcelain flowers.
A figure shivered in fright in the corridor.
Jun Qiyu, who is usually cautious, finally found this person. The figure patted his chest, as if he was taken aback, and then he leaned against the wall silently, and moved forward slowly.
All his actions fell into Jun Qiyu’s eyes.
Careful work?
Jun Qiyu didn’t send anyone to lurk Loulan as a secret agent.
assassin?
I have never seen such a stupid assassin.
And this person’s destination was actually the dining room, he sneaked in quietly, and closed the door of the dining room behind his back.
Jun Qiyu became slightly interested, because he thought the figure looked familiar.
If it was before, even in the dark night, he would still be able to recognize the face of this person, but after he injured his eyes on the snow mountain, his eagle eyes have not recovered to this day.
Jun Qiyu flew down and recognized this person.
It turned out to be… Song Liqing!
He has limited mobility, so he didn’t see Jun Qiyu who had been sitting on the eaves all the time. He was only shocked when the flagon was broken.
The frightened Song Liqing entered the dining room. He was not familiar with the dining room, so he groped for the direction, relying on the scent to guide the way, and managed to find half a roasted mutton.
Song Liqing was hungry, even though he didn’t like to eat mutton all the time, he couldn’t help but twitch his index finger when he smelled the golden-roasted prairie sheep without any smell. The addition of Loulan’s unique spices made him gulp.
Just as Song Liqing was holding a lamb leg, he just took a bite, tore off a piece of still warm lamb, and when he was about to feast on it, a human voice sounded behind him, making him tremble violently.
“Stealing?” Jun Qiyu asked with his throat closed.
“No, no, no…” Song Liqing was so frightened that he denied it, “I didn’t steal it, I just smelled it!”
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell…cousin?”
Jun Qiyu’s speech was very awkward, and he had to use the accent of a Huren learning the Central Plains dialect.
It’s also thanks to his long stay in the Western Regions that he imitated it decently.
Song Liqing quickly dropped the leg of lamb and went to hold Jun Qiyu’s hand.
“Don’t tell him, please, good cousin, you ate all my dinner, I’m so hungry. If he knows, he will definitely make me eat deer antler every day.”
“Then why don’t you eat more for dinner?” Jun Qiyu asked sternly.
Song Liqing said with a bitter face: “I have been eating those dishes for half a year, and I really can’t swallow them. I am too embarrassed to tell Brother Xingxu that Loulan’s cook is so bad, let alone compared with Jingguo’s imperial dining room, it is my family’s. The porridge made by the master is better than these. Cousin, if you go to sue, I… I will starve to death.”
When he begged for mercy like this, Jun Qiyu’s heart softened.
He knew best that Song Liqing had been a picky eater since he was a child, and later it was even more difficult to swallow because of blood exhaustion, and he vomited frequently.
Now that he finally had an appetite, Jun Qiyu couldn’t bear it anymore.
