The Mid Autumn Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China.
Xia Xiaoyun clearly remembers that when she was a child and a girl, no matter how busy her father was, she would come home on this day to spend the Mid Autumn Festival with their mother and daughter.
At that time, the carefree Xia Xiaoyun, who was allowed to drink a small glass of wine as an exception, would dance under the bright moon like an elf, accompanied by her parents with chopsticks and palm rhythm, and would also sing a song when the bright moon will come.
There is no doubt that those years were the best time of Xia Xiaoyun's life.
Although summer asked the husband and wife that they were not her biological parents, she still urgently hoped that time could stay in that era forever, not her biological parents, or even no square, so naturally there would be no so-called special mission given to her by God.
She only wants to grow up safely like most rich women, take over the Shentong express group from her father's class, find a husband who can say good words with a smiling face as soon as she loses her temper, and have a pair of lovely little children.
On weekends, like enslaving cattle and horses, he will drive his husband to drive his family to the wild for an outing. Even after returning home at night, he will be allowed to take revenge in a man's way to meet his male chauvinism.
That's the life she wants.
That kind of life, although a little dull, can also be the happiest and most real.
However, she was destined not to be so plain and happy all her life. She would only accept those unbearable pain, one after another, whether in family affection or love, according to the arrangement of fate.
In fact, she is still very surprised at her ability to bear. After suffering so many painful and unwilling blows, she can still stand in front of the car like a normal person, look up at the night sky, and recite in a low voice the poem spread through the ages: "there is a bright moon on the sea, and the ends of the world share this time."
Xia Xiaoyun is not standing by the sea, but at the door of Fangjia Hutong.
There was no bright moon on the night of this year's Mid Autumn Festival. Only the drizzle of cattle, with the coolness of late autumn, fell from the dark sky and sprinkled on her face, just like the hand of the sky.
There is no moon on this mid autumn festival.
However, this does not affect the happy people's good mood to celebrate the festival. Cars are parked in front of several hotels across the river. From a distance, you can hear the cheerful voices of men and children.
They must have raised their glasses to the moon on Lihua mountain, right?
Yan Ying, Qin Dachuan's brother and sister (Qin Dachuan has been discharged from the hospital), Greene, and donkey all gathered together, laughing and laughing. Their eyebrows were full of happiness, but no one thought of her.
Thinking of her Xia Xiaoyun, on this evening of family reunion, we should stay away from the king of Tang who gave birth to her and raised her, and embark on a journey with uncertain future.
Thinking of the man, Xia Xiaoyun felt acid water in her heart.
The sour water turned into tears again, slid down his face from the corners of his eyes and mixed with the rain.
Fangyuan, I wish you every year in the future.
Xia Xiaoyun prayed silently in her heart, raised her hand to wipe the water stains on her face and turned around.
Laura stood not far behind her, holding an umbrella in her hand, but she didn't open it, so she looked at her silently.
"Laura, I'm leaving. Remember, don't tell him I'm gone until I call him. "
Xia Xiaoyun went to Laura, stretched out her hands and said with a smile, "don't be sad. You should know that there is a saying in our country, called --"
"There is no feast that never ends."
Laura threw away her umbrella and hugged Xia Xiaoyun with her hands.
"Yes. Both loving couples have the saying that "husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and when great difficulties come, they fly separately." what's more, we are just good sisters? Anyway, we'll have to break up one day. "
Xia Xiaoyun patted Laura on the shoulder and said, "listen to me, find a man to accompany you. It's hard to stay up late alone."
Laura smiled and said nothing.
"OK, let's go."
Xia Xiaoyun exhaled heavily, turned and jumped into the car quickly, slammed the door, never looked at Laura again, but leaned on the back like she had lost her strength, and whispered to Guo Yiqin, "you can go."
Drop, drop.
Guo Yiqin didn't go, just honked his horn.
"What's the matter?"
Xia Xiaoyun opened her eyes and looked forward. She found Laura standing in the front light tube and opened her hands.
She knew that this was the last time Laura begged her to go together.
"Drive over."
Xia Xiaoyun's voice choked and said softly.
Guo Yiqin stepped on the accelerator slightly and the car moved forward slowly.
Laura finally dodged when the front of the car was about to touch her clothes.
Guo Yiqin immediately picked up the speed and rushed forward with a shout.
"President Xia!"
Laura's cry came in through the window.
Xia Xiaoyun looked back and saw Laura catching up quickly.
Without her saying anything, Guo Yiqin added the accelerator again. The car soon drove across the bridge, quickly turned right and sped south along Shunhe road.
Laura caught up with the top of the bridge, stopped, covered her face with her hands and squatted down slowly.
Tears, dripping from Xia Xiaoyun's cheeks, Guo Yiqin said, "your relationship is very good."
"When I was in the most difficult time, she stayed with me."
Xia Xiaoyun didn't wipe her tears. She let the tears fall on her chest like broken bamboo, but she curled up in the corner of the seat and choked: "she is no longer my simple bodyguard, but my sister and my relatives. Originally, she doesn't belong to this country - admittedly, I provided her with a fairly material life, but what she did is worthy of me. Now I'm gone, leaving her alone in a foreign country -- later, later, she doesn't like talking. When she's bored, who should I talk to? "
After listening to Xia Xiaoyun, Guo Yiqin whispered, "so even for Laura, you have to come back alive."
"That's not necessarily. Maybe the life my mother arranged for me makes me happy?"
Xia Xiaoyun gently sucked her nose, looked up at him and asked, "what about you?"
"What's the matter with me?"
"When you leave, don't you have anyone worth remembering?"
"My home is in Beijing. As you said, we have to go to Beijing first. You have to enjoy your super arrogant feeling before you leave. "
Guo Yiqin said with a smile, "so I'm going home now. When you go home, will you cry in a bad mood? "
"But you have to go after all. Come with me."
Xia Xiaoyun was disgusted that Guo Yiqin could maintain such a good state of mind and said harshly, "besides, I may come back alive, but you may stay there forever."
"That's my destiny."
Guo Yiqin said lightly, "besides, I don't have a Laura like you who can't give up. My life and death are not too important for our family. What they value more is how much benefit my death can bring to the Guo family. If I have more interests after death, they will pray that I don't come back. "
"This is the family affection of the aristocratic family?"
"Aristocratic families have no family affection. Otherwise, Li Shimin would not have killed his two brothers and then occupied their wives and concubines. This kind of thing is quite unreasonable in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is no longer normal for large families. "
"Well, are you willing to be the victim?"
Xia Xiaoyun asked.
Guo Yiqin shook his head and didn't speak.
Xia Xiaoyun asked, "since you are unwilling, why do you do this?"
"If I don't do it, other children of the Guo family will do it."
Guo Yiqin seemed to smile and said, "moreover, if someone else did it, I wouldn't have any sense of guilt. I would only respect and appreciate him, and then make full use of his sacrifice to strive for the greatest possible interests for the family - that's what every rich and powerful family relies on to inherit the times."
Guo Yiqin is right. Ordinary people can never guess and accept those things in aristocratic families.
Ordinary people only see the arrogant, domineering and drunken enjoyment of the children of aristocratic families, but they never think about how they get such a superior life.
No pay, no return, this is the truth.
Behind any enjoyment, there is a certain pay.
In fact, as early as ancient times, there was an old saying among the people, which was very appropriate for Guo Yiqin: they only saw the thief eating meat, but didn't see the thief beaten.
"Well, you're right."
Xia Xiaoyun thought carefully, wiped the tears on her face with her backhand and said, "it seems that when you reincarnate in your next life, you'd better not vote in a rich family. Just put it in an ordinary family. "
Guo Yiqin looked back at Xia Xiaoyun and said with a smile, "you are used to living a high life with rich clothes and food. Would you like to go begging along the street with a stick?"
"No."
"I don't want to."
"Guo Yiqin, I suddenly found that we have a common language."
Xia Xiaoyun also smiled and looked very happy: "unfortunately, the time we met was too short. If it had been more than two years earlier, maybe we would have become boyfriend and girlfriend. "
"We'll never be boyfriend and girlfriend."
Guo Yiqin said, "your boyfriend. It's meant to be a circle. "
"But now it is you who accompany me."
"That's because we haven't waited for the square to shine."
"Do you think he will go to Lop Nur for me?"
Xia Xiaoyun disdained her lips and said, "that guy has so many beautiful women around him now. Only when he is out of his mind will he give up his current good life and go to that ghost place to find me."
Guo Yiqin said, "he will go."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure."
"What should I do to him when he goes there?"
"Better let him die."
Guo Yiqin said lightly, "only when he is dead can I have no resistance in pursuing Qin Xiaobing."
"Well, I'll let him die."
Xia Xiaoyun nodded.
Guo Yiqin was a little surprised this time: "are you really willing to let him die?"
Xia Xiaoyun dropped down the window and let the drizzle blown by the wind fall on her face. She said faintly, "I don't even care about my own life and death. I still care about his life and death?"
Xia Xiaoyun doesn't care about the life and death of Fang Yuan, but Yan Ying does.
After seeing Fang Yuan reach out to get the wine bottle, he quickly grabbed it and said angrily: "Xiao Yuan, still drink, don't die?"
"It's okay, mom."
Fang Yuan looked sleepy and patted his chest: "I can drink several bottles."
"Boss, stop drinking."
After drinking three glasses of wine, Qin Dachuan, who will be twisted by Qin Xiaobing under the soft rib as soon as he swallows his saliva, said pitifully, "I can drink two kilograms, but now I can only stare?"
Qin Xiaobing didn't speak. He reached for the wine bottle and put it in front of him with a bang. He said with a silent sneer: "you drink, I won't care how much you drink."
"Calculate, forget it, or."
Qin Dachuan was so frightened that he shrunk his neck. He laughed and whispered, "can you smoke?"
