Chapter 57

Si Jixia wanted to say something more, but in the end he didn't say anything, but turned his eyes slightly away and said, "Since that's the case, Miss Ah Nuan should go to bed early, and I will ask Miss Ah Nuan to get up tomorrow morning."

After a pause, he added: "Miss Ah Nuan also needs to bring a change of clothes."

Dong Nuan smiled and nodded, Si Jixia turned around eagerly and left, Dong Nuan followed behind him and sent him outside the door, only to see him stop again after crossing the threshold, Dong Nuan just I feel that he is so strange tonight.

He didn't turn his head, but turned his back to Dong Nuan, only to hear his voice a little low, "Miss Ah Nuan, before leaving the mansion next time, can you let me know?"

Dong Nuan so blinked his eyelids, and was about to go around to answer Si Jixia's question, but at this moment Si Jixia strode away, and his voice could still be heard in the cold night air, "It's nothing, Miss Ah Nuan Just pretend I didn't say anything."

Then, there was the sound of the door of the next room closing.

Dongnuan didn't immediately turn around and go back to the room, but looked in the direction of Si Jixia's next room, his eyes flickering.

He always seemed a little anxious and flustered when facing her.

Why panic, she is not a rich wolf, a tiger or leopard, a snake and a scorpion, or an ugly person, so what?

However, he really surprised her by letting her go out of the house with her. She thought that he would not take the initiative to say a word to her except for the necessary communication in daily life.

And where is he going, it will take ten days to go back and forth?
When the sky had not yet revealed a ray of light, Si Jixia knocked on the door of Dong Nuan's house and called her softly a few times. After the lights were lit in Dong Nuan's house, he realized that he had prepared breakfast and waited for her to wash up. You can eat when you are done.

Looking out at the still dark sky through the window, Dong Nuan rubbed the corners of her eyes, her eyes dimmed. She didn't know what time Si Jixia woke up, but she had already made breakfast.

Opening the door of the house, there is a copper basin with warmed water and a cup of warm water outside the threshold. Looking at the water surface in the copper basin reflecting the light of the wind lamp and fire in the corridor, I don’t know how to feel warm in winter.

After dressing up and washing up, after breakfast, I also packed up the clothes that can be changed on the way, so Dongnuan pulled out a small red-spotted snake from the clothes stacked on the low bedside cabinet and stuffed it into the sleeve, and then put the snake-like thick snake Putting the silver ring into the belt, he opened the door and walked out of the house.

Under the osmanthus tree in front of the building in the courtyard, Si Jixia was already waiting for her. He saw a black cloth bundle on his left shoulder, and because of the bundle on his shoulder, he opened his cloak to expose his left arm. With the left half of his body, he can clearly see that today he is wearing a light gray wide-sleeved gown.

He was wearing an old wind lantern in his hand, and the cloak tied on his shoulders was a navy blue thick hooded cloak trimmed with white fluff. It could be seen at a glance that it was specially made by her in Chengxiang Buzhuang. She asked the shopkeeper to make it according to Si Jixia's height she had described. She asked the shopkeeper to make three new thick cloaks for him. Knowing that he likes cloaks with hoods, she pointed out that every cloak must have a hood. In fact, she saw that the cloaks he used were all washed white and too thin, so they couldn't keep out the cold in such a wet and cold winter day. After all, he was also her husband in name, and he was really considerate to her. Returns should be taken for granted.

Dong Nuan also saw Si Jixia's scarf around his neck, and couldn't help smiling. I didn't see him wearing a new dress that she had specially made for him yesterday, so I thought he didn't like it or really wanted to break up with her. , now it seems that it is not, but I don't know what he thinks in his heart.

Perhaps it was because he was not used to wearing a scarf yet, the scarf around Si Jixia's neck was a little crooked, so Dong Nuan walked up to him, and raised his hand to straighten the scarf around his neck when he was opening his mouth to say something , and only smiled at him after tidying up.

"Miss Ah Nuan's things are packed?" Si Jixia's body began to tense again, without looking into Dong Nuangu's eyes, he asked.

Dong Nuangu nodded, and saw Si Jixia glanced at the burden on her shoulders, then raised the hand holding the lantern towards her, but halfway through the lift, he lowered his hand and turned around, saying in a rather cold voice: "Let's go."

It's not that Dong Nuan didn't notice Si Jixia's gaze and actions just now, so she glanced at the burden on her shoulders, and then shifted her gaze to Si Jixia's left hand holding the wind lantern, who was already walking towards the moon gate with her back turned away. Going up, his eyes flickered and followed his footsteps.

His eyes and actions just now meant that he wanted to help her carry the burden, but he only had one hand, and he couldn't reach out to pick up the burden on her shoulder after carrying the wind lantern. How should he feel in his heart?
Suddenly, Dong Nuangu felt that strange and inexplicable feeling in her heart appeared again, and it seemed to have a little...sourness.

Sour?for him?

Dong Nuanso looked at Si Jixia's back and shook his head slightly, it's impossible, she's only been with him for a few days, how could she feel this way?

In the last life, she only felt this way when facing the news of the death of a subordinate who was close to her on weekdays. Even when facing Liu Niang, she did not feel this way. It was not because she was ruthless to Liu Niang, but because Liu Niang She can guess exactly what mother thinks in her heart, she can control Liu Niang's fate and know that she will be fine, but he is different, she doesn't know him, and she can't guess what he thinks at all. She has the name of husband and wife and lives together in the same courtyard, and has no other relationship. Just like this, how can she feel sour in her heart?
It must be her own illusion.

Therefore, Dongnuan did not walk with Si Jixia, but followed him at a distance of three or two steps. His footsteps were fast, but he would stop after walking a short distance, and did not turn around, but Dongnuan It is known that he stopped and waited for her, just like on the wedding day, he used a woven red silk to lead her into this mansion and walked to this small courtyard of Jiyao.

He didn't mean to tell her to hurry up, but he just turned on the lamp in front to illuminate the road, the surroundings were still pitch black, and the firelight from the lampshade was dimly yellow, covering his whole body, setting off his back. He was a little hazy, the cloak on his back swayed slightly with his footsteps, and the place on his right arm collapsed a little bit, making people feel that his already thin body was even thinner.

He just walked ahead alone with the lantern in hand, the thin figure shrouded in the cloak made Dong Nuan feel like a lonely night walker, as if he would melt into the surrounding darkness and disappear at any time.

Dong Nuangu quickened his pace a little, caught up with Si Jixia's and came to his right side, Si Jixia glanced at her slightly and then moved sideways, Dongnuangu cast his eyes down and raised his hand Grabbing his cloak, he saw the wind lamp in Si Jixia's hand flickering suddenly, his eyes fell on her again, and the uncomfortable feeling in his eyes seemed to diffuse up again.

"Miss Ah Nuan can't see the way clearly?" Si Jixia's voice was a little stiff, as if he always seemed uncomfortable every time she got close to him, so Dong Nuan didn't care, just nodded his head, Si Jixia moved the lantern in his left hand towards her as much as possible.
