In midsummer, even at night, it's hot everywhere.
The earth's afterglow is still baking.
Gu Qingzhou's sideburns were wet with sweat, and her hair was pushed to her left.
She and Si Xingyi are sitting in an ice cream shop with ice. She scoops ice cream with a silver spoon and eats it: "in summer, I envy your short hair."
"Didn't you say not to cut it?" Si Xingyi said with a smile, then dug a big spoon and swallowed it.
Gu Qingzhou said, "if you eat slowly, you will have a bad stomach for a while."
"Even if I eat Shi, I don't have a bad stomach." It doesn't matter what the way is.
Gu Qingzhou: "she looked at the mango ice cream in her bowl and couldn't eat it.
I want to kill Si Xinghe with a stick.
"What's the matter?" Si Xingyi didn't feel it, "if you don't want to eat, you don't want to eat.". Who knows if this kind of ice is hidden in the ice cellar or made of saltpeter. "
A long time ago, Han people had the habit of building ice cellars in midsummer.
There is a kind of saltpeter, as long as it meets with water, it will cool down and eventually become ice.
However, saltpeter itself is harmful.
Si Xingpei doesn't advocate eating ice in midsummer. He always feels that he should conform to the solar terms in all seasons of the year. He drinks more hot water in midsummer and can taste ice in winter.
However, Gu Qingzhou will occasionally be like a greedy little girl.
In front of his wife, Si Xinghe's all opinions will give way to the unimaginable bottom without any bottom line.
"I was disgusted." Gu Qingzhou said helplessly.
Si Xinghe didn't agree: "it's not the first time that you are disgusted by me. Haven't you got used to it?"
Gu Qingzhou: "what kind of talent can be so shameless? Gu Qingzhou can deal with this person in this life and take him as her own. She is really capable.
She put down the small bowl and drank half a cup of sour plum soup, which made her feel a little cool.
She's a little cooler and a little more energetic.
"Hungry, have something to eat?" "There is a hotel in front of me," he said
Gu Qingzhou said: "it's OK to eat. No more nonsense is allowed at the table."
Si Xinghe said, "everything is up to my wife."
When they had dinner, it was 9:30 p.m. and the heat in the air finally died down. Walking on the road, they could feel a faint chill.
The adjutant's car came from Peiping. They had dinner first and were waiting at the door.
Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingyi got into the car.
"Still going to the hospital?" Asked the adjutant.
"To the dock." Gu Qingzhou road.
There are many docks in Tianjin, but there is only one to go to Europe overnight.
Gu Qingzhou said the address of the wharf.
The adjutant drove out.
Gu Qingzhou didn't speak. He rubbed the jade pendant all the time.
She weighed it in her hand and found that the weight was normal.
"If she has something hidden in the jade pendant, where is the switch? If she doesn't hide it, I'll break it. Is that the same as destroying the relic? " Gu Qingzhou couldn't make up his mind.
Even for the last time, she didn't see whether Mrs. Hirano was kind or malicious to her.
"Western medicine has not yet been able to treat tuberculosis." Si Xingpei said to Gu Qingzhou, "look at her, maybe she has no chance?"
"Well." Gu Qingzhou road.
She sounds a little cold.
However, this is the fact. For incurable diseases, a miracle doctor is not an immortal.
If Mrs. Hirano cooperates, Gu Qingzhou can do his best to save her.
Under the present circumstances, she is not willing to.
The car stops at the seawall. Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingyi get out of the car. They walk along the seawall to the wharf.
Although it was midsummer, the sea breeze was still wet and cold. Si Xingyi and Gu Qingzhou were thin clothes, so he turned back and took Gu Qingzhou's shawl in the car.
About 50 meters away from the wharf, Gu Qingzhou stopped.
There was a stone platform nearby. Si Xingyi wiped the sand on it casually and let Gu Qingzhou sit on it.
He stood by, silently drawing out a cigarette and lighting it.
In the dark, when the fireworks disappeared, his face could be seen vaguely.
Cruise ships stop at the dock not far away, bustling.
The people who are going to catch the boat, and the people who are going to see them off, make the dock as noisy as a market in the late night.
Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingyi have been watching.
Until four people came into their sight.
Two men, carrying luggage. The luggage was heavy and varied, and it seemed to be moving; a young woman, wearing a mask, helped another woman wearing a mask.
The woman couldn't see her face clearly, but her waist couldn't stand upright. She seemed to be old.
"She is so ill that she can infect a ship of people." Si Xingpei suddenly opened his mouth in the dark, "she has been quite immoral, and will not change until she dies."Gu Qingzhou heard Mrs. Hirano's words and guessed that she might want to leave far away.
At that time, Gu Qingzhou did not know the truth of her words.
Listen to her meaning, if she is cured, no matter where she goes, she still can't avoid the royalists, and there will always be people who don't give up.
Even if she wants to give up, others will not allow it.
Moreover, this matter will also involve Gu Qingzhou, making it difficult for Gu Qingzhou to be peaceful.
Gu Qingzhou originally expected to get rid of the royalists, including those who killed Mrs. Hirano.
Mrs. Hirano knew that she just got along with each other. Even if she didn't have feelings, she couldn't ignore her blood. Cai Changting's sacrifice eliminated Gu Qingzhou's hatred for the royalists.
She wanted to save Mrs. Hirano.
And Mrs. Hirano, if you can leave anything in this life, it's probably Gu Qingzhou's blood.
She didn't want to destroy Gu Qingzhou and her life.
So she had her own ideas.
Gu Qingzhou thought that it was his random guess at that moment, but he didn't think it was true.
Si Xingpei stamped out the cigarette end and looked at the distant dock: "if she really gets on the boat, I won't ask about Fangfei."
Fangfei is homicide or suicide, Si Xinghe also want to determine.
But Fangfei killed Sima. It's a foregone conclusion.
Homicide or suicide are just the retribution of Fangfei's sin. Si Xingyi can turn a blind eye.
Gu Qingzhou told Si Xingyi that Mrs. Hirano might want a way out: let the royalists think that she went to Europe, while the real one died of illness.
She can die, but no one can find her body, otherwise Gu Qingzhou is her substitute.
She disappeared, no one could find her, she did not have to hide, death was her relief.
Buried in the sea, no bones.
"Should I stop her?" Gu Qingzhou asked Si Xingyi.
Si Xingyi said, "can you cure her?"
"There's 30 percent hope."
"Even if these 30% are successful, can you treat her as a mother, be filial to her and support her for the rest of your life?" Si Xingyi asked again.
Gu Qingzhou is silent.
It turns out that cure does not mean the problem is solved.
Under the gaze of Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingyi, Mrs. Hirano got on the cruise.
She was escorted by two men who soon got off the boat and did not accompany her.
When they got off the ship, one of them carried a small suitcase. Is that the severance payment given to them by Mrs. Hirano?
