Broken wings

When Qi Xiu returned to his room, he heard the happy laughter of several patrolling soldiers: "I heard that it will not only be held in the capital, but also in the barracks, and we will also have fun with our brothers." "Is it? It's just an engagement party, so it's such a big deal? Modest and handsome is much more high-profile than before. "With such a beautiful wife, how can he not do it well? It seems that he has invited a lot of cooks to come over, and maybe he has brought candy." "

Qi Xiu couldn't help but tremble all over, what kind of place is the barracks? Can you hold a banquet at will so frivolously? Why can rich and powerful people do whatever they want...... It doesn't make sense......

Su Jiu took out xiaolongbao and fried gruel from the lunch box for her, and said lightly: "Their first engagement banquet will be held in the capital, and they will go to the military camp to hold the second one after the capital is completed. "

Qi Xiujin was holding a small longbao dipped in vinegar, and when he heard the words, his movements were sluggish, and then he stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "I will prepare the red envelope, and you will hand it over to him on that day." "

"Why are you avoiding him?" Su Jiu asked bluntly, "There's no need to hide, he can't pose any threat to you anyway, why should you be afraid of him?"

"How could I be afraid of him?" Qi Xiu frowned and said irritably, "I don't want to discuss this topic. "

"Hugh, you haven't lived well without him in the past few years? You won't die without him, and there is no one in this world who can't live without him, so why do you hang yourself on a tree?"

"I didn't hang. "

"If I were you, I would definitely go to his engagement banquet generously, toast the two of them in a proper manner, show him that I don't care if he has someone else, show him that I can live better without him, instead of being like a mouse, I can only hide by myself, and I don't even dare to see him!" Su Jiu rarely showed a strong side, but at this time, his emotions were a little radical, and he hated Qi Xiu's cowardice in his heart, obviously he didn't discriminate against people, it was obviously this relationship that he Ouyang Qian betrayed first, why did he have to hide in Tibet, as if it was her who couldn't see anyone.

"That's enough!" Qi Xiujin dropped his chopsticks and looked at her almost pleadingly, "Don't say it, you just allow me to be weak once, people can't keep their sanity all the time, you just let me hide, I admit that I am cowardly, I admit that I am spineless, I know that I am very despicable like this, but I admit it, let me hide for a while, okay?"

Su Jiu swallowed his tears: "Okay." "

Qi Xiu suddenly mourned and said: "I have a shadow of the auspicious day of the zodiac and the beating of gongs and drums, so I dare not go to the engagement banquet. "

"You ......" Su Jiu guessed something in his heart, didn't say more, and silently hugged her.

"I put on a battle armor for him, when I fell in love with him, he was a little

boy who didn't grow up, but my youth was nearing the end, I waited for him for six years, he appeared in front of me again, mature, steady, grew into a personable man, and then he finally found his little girl, happy and happy to live his own warm life, I really feel so wronged, so sad, I am not an optimistic person, I really can't face it, I can't see their affection, love, love, I'm sick, I shouldn't obstruct others from finding their own happiness, I want to be widowed for him It's my own choice, he hasn't persecuted me, I'm mentally ill to think about those dirty and disgusting thoughts, let me hide for a while...... Hide for a while......" Qi Xiu muttered, Su Jiu gently hugged her in his arms, wiped the tears from her cheeks, and said softly, "Don't cry, hide if you want to." "

Qi Xiu went to Bi Zhoucheng's camp tent: "Marshal, will there be any training for me in the next few days?"

Bi Zhoucheng took the schedule and looked at it: "There will be your field in two days, what's wrong?

"Well, I want to take a few days off, I need to leave for a while, do you like the arrangement?".

"So suddenly?" Bi Zhoucheng was a little surprised, but he still looked back and forth through a few pages of the schedule, and could find someone to train instead of her, and responded, "Okay, leave." "

"Okay, then I'll go back and write a fake note for you to sign. Qi Xiu was in arrears and just wanted to retreat, but Bizhou Chengcheng waved his hand, "No need to write." "

This is clearly partial...... Qi Xiu Jin knew that if he didn't write a fake note, his salary would not be deducted, and he couldn't help but say in a muffled voice: "Marshal, didn't you find that you were too partial?" Bi Zhoucheng looked at her expressionlessly, and Qi Xiu said again, "Respect me and ignore everyone, you should not be so good to me in the future......

".

Bi Zhoucheng also knew that in the past few years, because of her, his bottom line has dropped again and again, and several times Zhong Xiao has jokingly mentioned the matter of eccentricity to himself, but next time, he will still favor her, almost without hesitation. "Hugh, do you need my help?"

Qi Xiu said in a low voice: "No, I just want to stay by myself, I don't want to see anyone, let me shrink up by myself for a while, maybe I will be fine in half a month." "

Bi Zhoucheng walked up to her and said with a sigh: "We've known each other for six years, but you don't even want to give me a little trust?"

Qi Xiu looked at him in surprise: "Marshal?"

"I hope you can

ask me for help when you are in trouble, instead of rejecting everyone's kindness from beginning to end and just keep your voice silent, and I also hope that you can trust me......" even, rely on me ......

Qi Xiu lowered his eyes and said, "After all, this is my private matter, there is no reason to trouble you or others, you believe that I can solve it by myself, I just need a little time." "

Bizhou Cheng let out a sigh of relief, took a step back, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "You still treat me as an outsider." "

"Marshal, I am grateful for all your help to me in the past few years, I have not taken you as an outsider, I know that you are really good to me, I will not forget your kindness to me, please forgive me. "

Bi Zhoucheng smiled weakly: "You have nothing to forgive me, don't think so much, give you a holiday, you can go and have a good rest, and when you come back after the holiday, you must adjust your state, you must firmly remember to occupy your position and plan your own affairs, don't think about your children and daughters with the country's money, and disturb the military style." "

"I see, thank you, Marshal. Qi Xiu bowed and withdrew from his tent, Bi Zhoucheng sat back on the chair, looked at Qi Xiu's name on the schedule, and stroked his forehead with a helpless wry smile.

The night before Ouyang Qian arrived at the barracks, Qi Xiu went to the bathhouse, splashed down a few buckets of cold water, and then stood at the cold air outlet to blow the wind, and after a while, he kept sneezing, and after a while, he became top-heavy, Su Jiu took her back to the house, and her whole body was wrapped in the quilt, like a ball, with a thick nasal voice: "You go for me, and then tell Qian Shuai, I have a little cold, I have been living outside in recent days, and I can't attend his engagement banquet, and the money is in the drawer of the dresser." "

Su Jiu took the red envelope and tossed it up, a little unhappy: "So much...... You've donated all of our living expenses. "

Qi Xiujin sneezed and said: "It's all change, how can I have a lot of banknotes, add up to twenty taels." "

"Twenty taels is less? "

Qi Xiu was a little ashamed: "People have a big business, and the people who come and go with him are princes and nobles, and my money is in them, and it doesn't even ......count a single hair" In the end, she suddenly turned a corner, "Yes, ten taels and twenty taels, it makes no difference to him, so what kind of fat man am I, you take it, take it." "

Su Jiu

handed her the red envelope, Qi Xiu Ji counted ten taels of silver again, and smiled at Su Jiu with a flattering smile: "Give him ten taels, I can't take it anymore, and we can eat delicious food with the ten taels when I come back." "

Su Jiu's expression slowed slightly: "Okay." "

Qi Xiu went back to the house she rented outside, and when she got to the house, she stripped herself off as usual, and then lay down in a wooden bucket full of hot water, bathed comfortably, twisted the rose petals floating on the water with her fingers, and put her fingers in front of her nose to smell it. She took a sharp breath, then dipped her head in the water, grunted, and after a while lifted her head out, panting heavily, her eyes looked at the roof beams in a daze, and the water in her eyes made her cry all the time.

Qi Xiu couldn't help but think of how to be gentle with him and make up for the regret he missed a few years ago when he dreamed back countless midnights, but he already had a good person, and he had long forgotten about himself, a person who had never even married in a serious church. I didn't know that he still had feelings for him, and he couldn't wait to paste it, in his eyes, it was very cheap, right? It made him look down on him, right? She couldn't help but chuckle: "Stupid, aren't you stupid?" After a long time, she wiped away the tears on her face, and sighed with resignation and some unwillingness.

Qi Xiu's hand slowly caressed his body, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint gasp came from his nose. After finishing the work, he lay in the bathtub and looked at the beams in a daze, feeling a little pitiful and a little sad. The body swayed slowly with the water waves, and it became cool when she soaked in the water, Qi Xiu got up and wiped her body clean, and then put on a light pajama, tied a belt at will, and lay down on the bed, but her eyes were still empty, and her head was also empty, and she didn't know what to think about at all. At this time, there was a knock at the door: "Hugh, it's me." "

Qi Xiu

opened the door and saw that Su Jiu had brought a few bought dishes, which were very fragrant, Qi Xiu closed the door and asked, "Why didn't you bring the key?" and then her eyes stared at the pocket for a moment, she had not eaten anything from yesterday noon to today, and she had long been hungry with her chest against her back.

If she doesn't want to, she

doesn't want to come in and disturb her suddenly, if she doesn't open the door, she won't go in, but she won't say it. Su Jiu put the meals on the table one by one, set the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and then said softly: "I know you're hungry, eat." "

Qi Xiu's nose was a little sour, the two sat down to eat tacitly, no one spoke, and after eating, Su Jiu silently packed up everything, then turned around and walked out, and closed the door.

She knew that Qi Xiu didn't want anyone to disturb her at this time, so she wouldn't bother.
