It is still cold at night. Unlike Yuecheng, the cold in Taiyuan Prefecture is dry and cold.

This kind of cold, lonely one can be blocked by just blocking the clothes, but the tender peach stamens in the courtyard seem to shrink, and the ones that are not open are all closed tightly.

Cai Changting's provocation is not as dangerous as Si Xingpei's roadblocking dog, so it is completely beyond his heart to continue doing his own thing.

While he was acting, he also brought Huo Yue with him.

Si Xingpei remembered that when he was in Yuecheng, he was in a small territory with the army in his back, he colluded with Huo Yue. The two of them got a lot of benefits, both of them, both of them, and both of them were secret.

Huo Yue was his first close friend in his life.

Now, when he arrived in Taiyuan Prefecture, Huo Yue accompanied him, Si Xingpei seemed to have the same mood as before, and became more and more powerful.

Gu Qingzhou returned to Shiro Hirano's mansion, specifically for Mrs. Hirano's company.

Under the arrangement of Mrs. Hirano, she met the wives of several small warlords again, who all secretly defected to the royalist party.

These small military leaders were all from remote counties and towns in the northwest. They were not much better than bandits. Governor Ye was too lazy to attack them because their territory and troops were too useless.

They are busy with their own affairs during the day and still live with Si Xingpei at night.

The yard prepared by Governor Ye for them has been completed and the furniture inside is complete.

Si Xingpei did not move in because Gu Qingzhou said: "The paint smell of the new furniture is so strong, so I will talk about it for a few months."

I slept together every day, but I haven't eaten together for a long time.

After four or five days like this, Si Xingpei called Gu Qingzhou in the middle of the afternoon and said, "Come back for supper."

Gu Qingzhou said: "Okay, I'll go back early."

He was temporarily called by Mrs. Hirano and gave her a book of accounts. These were some small businesses of the Royalist Party. I hope she will go and see it tomorrow.

Gu Qingzhou answered and asked clearly, so he delayed until six o'clock in the evening.

Cai Changting is back too.

Mrs. Hirano asked someone to serve.

But Gu Qingzhou smiled and said, "I won't eat anymore. Si Xingpei promised to make delicious food for me tonight, and I have to go back."

Mrs. Hirano was surprised and asked Gu Qingzhou with a smile: "He can still cook?"

"Average chefs can't compare to him." Gu Qingzhou said with a smile.

Mrs. Hirano said: "I will try it some more tomorrow, is it possible?"

"I'll ask him. I dare not be his master with his temper. I need his consent first before I dare to agree to you." Gu Qingzhou said with a smile.

Mrs. Hirano understood that she didn't want to make it for her to eat.

In Gu Qingzhou's marriage, she dominated. No matter how powerful Si Xingpei was, he was like a pug in front of his wife, and was diligent and flattering, and he was completely obedient to Gu Qingzhou.

Mrs. Hirano said nothing more.

Cai Changting said, "It's so late, I'll take you home."

Gu Qingzhou said: "No need to worry."

Her car was waiting at the door, and Cai Changting insisted on accompanying her to the door.

Along the way, Cai Changting asked her: "Did I bother you if I said that last time?"

"No." Gu Qingzhou said.

Cai Changting said, "Do you blame me?"

"No wonder, you are qualified to say anything." Gu Qingzhou said.

Her emotions remain unchanged, dull and distant.

Cai Changting also found that there seemed to be no conflict between her and Si Xingpei, and any solicitation was useless, which surprised him a little.

"I haven't given up." Cai Changting said.

Gu Qingzhou laughed.

She was neither embarrassed nor happy, nor even asked him to empathize with her - she loved her, but she was completely treated as Cai Changting alone.

You love me, it has nothing to do with me.

Such calmness!

Cai Changting smiled slightly and thought to himself that she was indeed unusual, a little bit stubborn, it was really good.

Gu Qingzhou did not speak anymore, walked to the gate in silence and got into the car.

She was thinking about what delicious food Si Xingpei had made. She was very devoted and almost drooled. She couldn't be distracted and listened carefully to Cai Changting.

When the car arrived at Si Xingpei's yard, Gu Qingzhou got out of the car quickly.

She smelled the familiar fragrance of the dish.

After knocking on the yard door, Gu Qingzhou stepped into the bluestone path and walked into the room. However, through the wide glass window of the living room, he saw the strangeness in the living room.

The light of the crystal lamp is very bright, and it throws the light beam into the courtyard. A crabapple tree is reflected, and it looks like a carved jadeite.

There was someone sitting in the living room.

Gu Qingzhou made great strides into the house.

Hearing the noise, the man also stood up and looked at Gu Qingzhou. It was Yan Yiyuan.

Gu Qingzhou was stunned.

Yan Yiyuan changed his appearance a lot. He seemed to be a little taller. Because he had been running outside for many years, his skin became wheat-colored, no longer as white as before.

The lines of his face also changed, and he became more resolute and obvious. He was the face of an adult man, and his eyes were deep and bright, which was 70% similar to his adopted father Yan Xinnong.

He grew up and was a man who stood up and down, no longer the Yan family's playboy who was rich and rich.

"Fifth Brother." Gu Qingzhou shouted, his vision suddenly blurred, and he realized that his throat was choked.

Yan Yiyuan also had tears in his eyes, and when the lamp shone, there seemed to be a flowing light: "Qingzhou, you are different from before, you look so beautiful."

Gu Qingzhou is even more beautiful, no longer the tenderness of a girl. She is like a blooming flower, completely blooming her beauty.

But how come the light and shadow in just over a year seem to have been ten or eight years apart?

Huo Yue said: "You all sit down and talk, why are you standing?"

Only then did Gu Qingzhou realize that Huo Yue was there too.

Yan Yiyuan sat down first, but Gu Qingzhou went to the kitchen.

Si Xingpei told her: "My people found him in Xuzhou, so I sent a plane to pick him up. He said he didn't want to go back to Yuecheng, so I took him to Taiyuan Prefecture."

Gu Qingzhou nodded.

She didn't say anything else, turned around and came out of the kitchen, and personally served tea to Huo Yue and Yan Yiyuan.

Yan Yiyuan held the tea in his hand, but did not drink it, but refused to let go.

"Have you been back?" Yan Yiyuan asked Gu Qingzhou, "I only found out that you were still alive not long ago."

"I've been back, I've been alive." Gu Qingzhou said.

"What did mom say to me?" Yan Yiyuan asked.

Gu Qingzhou said: "My mother said, the first time you are so persistent in doing something, she doesn't want you to give up halfway."

Yan Yiyuan nodded, his expression was a little bit like a silly, and said, "I'll feel at ease if my mother thinks this way. I'll take a break and I'll leave tomorrow."

Gu Qingzhou asked again: "Where are you planning to find it?"

Yan Yiyuan took out a compass the size of a palm from his arms.

He glanced at it, then looked at the window, and finally said slowly: "Let's go north."

Gu Qingzhou looked at the compass in his hand and said, "What is it?"

Yan Yiyuan did not answer.

He said less, and he was no longer the gentle and playful little Wu of the Yan family.

Huo Yue also glanced at him and said, "No need to go tomorrow. Stay in Taiyuan Prefecture for a while. You have been looking for it for a long time. My people have also been sent out. When we have a look, we will set off again."

Yan Yiyuan shook his head.

He raised his eyes and looked at Huo Yue, and said quietly and calmly: "As soon as I sat down, my mind was full of Ajing, and all the words she had said were in my ears. I couldn't stop, and I couldn't breathe once I stopped."

The room was very quiet.

His words poured into everyone's ears, and everyone's hearts were heavy and astringent.
