Chapter 242 Kiss

Pei Yunying walked in from the door.

Today he changed into a red brocade dress with bird patterns on the ground and narrow sleeves. He has been in southern Jiangsu for so long, and he mostly wore a guard's riding uniform. Suddenly he changed into something brighter. In the hazy night, he looked particularly handsome and handsome.

The medical officers were silent for a moment. Chang Jin came to his senses first and stood up and said: "Why is Commander Pei here? Isn't he saying that he is with County Lieutenant Li and the others today..."

As the trip back to Beijing was about to begin, Li Wenhu and Cai Fang planned to take advantage of New Year's Eve to say goodbye to everyone. But Chang Jin declined. Today, Pei Yunying arranged for the troops staying in southern Jiangsu at the county government office, and they should have dinner with the people in the county government office.

Pei Yunying walked to the table and said, "The banquet has dispersed."

 “So early?” Chang Jin was surprised, “I thought Cai County Magistrate and the others were going to stay until the end of the year.”

Pei Yun smiled but said nothing.

Chang Jin didn't think much about it, and picked up the jug to pour wine for Pei Yunying: "Dian Shuai Pei came just in time. The epidemic control in southern Jiangsu would not have been as smooth as it was without your help. Let me toast you tonight while we are having fun together."

Pei Yunying was originally in trouble in Qishui, but later rushed to southern Jiangsu to deliver medicine and food. Later, he requested orders from the Shengjing court and obtained the holy edict, so that the red wood vines and golden tan from outside could be delivered to southern Jiangsu in time.

Pei Yunying smiled, lowered his head and drank the wine.

This was an important moment, as if it was the beginning, all the medical officers in the Medical Officer's Court gathered around him.

"I'd like to pay a toast to Mr. Pei. Mr. Pei really saved my life! How could Sunan be so cold? The ice particles drilled into the cracks of people's bones. It was all thanks to the bright charcoal sent by Commander Pei. If it hadn't been for this Thing, I will definitely not survive to return to Shengjing!"

"I'll come, I'll come," the old medical officer was squeezed away, and someone bowed to him again, "How long have those wolf-hearted people in the city been thinking about grabbing medicine and food? It's a good thing, Mr. Pei, that you're here As soon as the soldiers and horses walked on the street, all the gangsters in Sunan stopped."

 “Master Pei…”

 “I respect you…”

 “You are young and promising, and you value love and righteousness...”

“You will have a bright future when you return to Shengjing. Don’t forget to promote and help when the time comes…”

 This is a long way off.

The young man surrounded by everyone was dressed in scarlet clothes. He had a smile on his face and was not impatient at all. He had a good temper and took a wine cup to greet everyone. He became the center of attention and everyone came to follow him.

On occasion when he was drinking, he would look past the people at the table and look towards this side as if nothing had happened.

Lu Zhen looked away.

Medical officers are usually cautious in their words and deeds, so as to seem to convince the patients. They all look gentle and elegant. They probably rarely drank alcohol before, and their alcohol capacity seems not to be very high. They get drunk even after not drinking much.

Some people went up to the table to sing, some cried and thought about their faults against the wall, and some said that there were too many errands in the hospital and the patients were cunning and wanted to hang themselves with hemp ropes. I don't know if the jar of Tusu wine is too strong, or if the people in the medical hospital are too drunk, or if too many people are pretending to be crazy with the help of wine. In short, it is like a demon showing up, and it can be said that a group of demons are dancing wildly.

Just when Lu Zhen was being disturbed by the noise, she saw the young man surrounded by people looking towards her. When their eyes met, Pei Yunying gave her a slight wink and walked towards the door first.

She knew it well, put down her cup and stood up.

Ji Xun asked: "Where is Medical Officer Lu going? The fireworks are about to be set off."

 “Wander around as you like.” Lu Yan said, grabbed her skirt and turned around and walked out the door.

 When she left the door, she saw Pei Yunying waiting for her at the door. She stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing?"

“There are so many people inside, don’t you find it noisy?” He smiled and glanced at the mingling figures in the courtyard, “I’ll take you somewhere.”

Before Lu Zhuo could speak, he was pulled forward by him.

It is late at night on New Year's Eve, and there is no one on the street. Every household in Sunan City is getting together with their families. Occasionally, one or two firecrackers can be heard deep in the streets.

After crossing the long corridor and entering the courtyard, Lu Xu finally understood, "Isn't this the residence of your guards?"

 The medical hospital was adjacent to the guards' quarters to accommodate temporary emergencies.

“Yes.” Pei Yunying said, “Didn’t you come here before?”

Lu Zhen was speechless for a moment. The last time she came here, Pei Yunying was injured and she bandaged him.

 Thinking about the scene at that time, I couldn't help but feel a little unnatural on my face.

"What's that expression on your face?" Pei Yunying crossed her chest and looked at her, "You look guilty."

"How can you feel guilty?" Lu Yan pushed open the door and walked in, "Where are the other people in your dormitory?"

"Cai Fang has arranged a celebration banquet. They are all eating and will not come back until very late. And they can't enter my yard." Pei Yunying followed her and closed the door.

Lu Zong couldn't help but be startled when he entered the room.

On the small table by the window, there is a wine pot, two jade cups, several plates of sugar pastries, and in the middle there is a string of copper coins tied with colorful threads, with the words "Twenty-Four Longevity and Longevity" engraved on it.

Hundred ten coins are worn with long colored threads. Divide them and put them on your pillow for your own collection.

　　When I was in the Lu family, every New Year’s Eve, my mother would secretly stuff copper coins strung with red thread under her pillow.

Lu Zong picked up the copper coin and looked at the person opposite: "New Year's money?"

"Aren't you sorry that you didn't get any coins tonight?" Pei Yunying sat down in front of the kitchen table, "Now you have it."

 “How do you know I didn’t get the coins?”

He glanced at Lu Yu and said leisurely: "When I came into your yard, your colleague was courting you. You can tell at a glance."

 Lu Huan: “…”

 This man's eyes were as vicious as ever.

Lu Zhuo put the bunch of copper coins away: "So, you asked me to come here just to give me lucky money?"

"Of course not." Pei Yunying looked out the window: "Watching fireworks with a group of drunkards would be too noisy. I'll lend you my clean yard."

To be honest, he chose this place very well. It is clean and simple. You can see the outside of the courtyard when you open the window. It should be the best place to watch the fireworks when you want to come.

“Then I should still thank the commander-in-chief?”

"Okay," he lifted his chin and looked at Lu Yan, slightly curling his lips, "How do you want to thank me?"

 “How would you like me to thank you?”

Pei Yunying raised his eyelids and looked at her. After a while, he laughed and said, "Let's heal your injury first."

"It sounds like you want to blackmail someone." Lu Zhu picked up the wine pot, poured a full glass and put it to his lips. When he took a sip, his teeth were full of sweetness. He couldn't help but froze for a moment and looked at Pei Yunying: "Isn't it wine?"

He looked at her with a reproachful look in his eyes. He filled the pot for himself and said, "You are still taking medicine and want to drink. Are you going to die?"

"I specially found the plum blossom drink. I see that none of your colleagues prepared sweet syrup for you."

He talked about "colleagues" one by one, and he always felt that he was referring to something. Lu Zhu was speechless and raised his head to drink up the drink in the cup.

When he raised his hand, his sleeve slipped down, revealing his scarred wrist. The scar was different from the past, and was a little red. When Pei Yunying saw this, he frowned, grabbed her hand, and asked, "What's going on?"

 Lu Zong paused.

 Recently, after her body gradually reacted to the medicine again, Ji Xun re-conditioned her old injuries from Huangmaogang. Some medicines are useful for her and some are useless. When it falls on her body, she will inevitably have some unexpected reactions.

After she explained to Pei Yunying, Pei Yunying let go of her hand, but her brows were still furrowed: "Are you going to keep trying like this?"

"It doesn't matter." Lu Yan said, "It doesn't hurt."

Hearing this, Pei Yunying raised his eyes and looked at Lu Zhuo.

 Lu Yan: “What?”

"When it hurts, say it doesn't hurt. When you think about it, say you don't want it. When you like it, say you don't like it." He said calmly, "Doctor Lu, do you have to be so duplicitous?"

These words were actually said with a bit of coldness. Lu Yan raised his eyes and he stared at her, looking a little angry.

 After a moment of silence, Lu Huan said: "Medical Officer Ji used the medicine, and the wound will eventually heal."

Pei Yunying looked at her quietly with complicated eyes. After a while, he seemed to finally give in and spoke softly.

 “That’s what the doctor said.”

"For people who are sick, there is no need to be patient. Shout out when it hurts and say when you feel uncomfortable. This is what the patient should do."

"Dr. Lu has been a doctor for too long. Sometimes, you might as well try to treat yourself as an ordinary patient." He lowered his head and put the cup filled with sweet water into Lu Yan's hand. There was a faint feeling between his fingertips. The warmth comes.

 Lu Zong looked at the person in front of him.

Under the slightly cold night in Sunan, the young man's brows and eyes had lost their usual sharpness, and his eyes as he looked at her were as gentle as silk rain.

“Next time you feel pain, tell me. It won’t help, but at least someone will know.”

 Lu Zong was stunned for a moment.

It's like a boat sailing to a quiet and cold river, gradually opening up the spring water of the river. As the ripples sway, my mind moves slightly.

“Boom—” Across the dormitory, the laughter and screams from the medical officer’s dormitory next door were faintly heard.

 Lu Zhuo tilted his head.

At midnight, fireworks began to set off over Sunan City.

Fire trees are blowing in the clouds, like red phoenixes flying, and they are shining like falling stars.

 She stood up, put down the tea cup, and walked to the courtyard.

The lights and fireworks made the originally deserted streets very lively, and in an instant, the sky was covered with flowers.

Lu Zhen raised his head and looked at the fireworks above his head.

 This is the third time she has watched the fireworks since landing at Meifeng.

The first time was last year's New Year's Eve, and the second time was when Qi Yutai died. I had no intention of enjoying the fireworks for the first two times, but this time, although it was not as grand and prosperous as the Shengjing fireworks, I felt it was particularly beautiful.

 She looked at the people around her.

Pei Yunying walked to her side, caught her sight, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Zhen shook his head: "I just thought that on New Year's Eve last year, I seemed to be watching the fireworks with you."

Pei Yunying was startled for a moment.

　　It seems that I just remembered the scene at that time.

At that time, she fell into the muddy water on the ground. He was high and aggressive. The bright silver flowers bloomed all over the window, and he handed her a handkerchief in the flowing light and shadow.

 Some things started to change from that moment on.

Pei Yunying glanced at her and raised the corners of her lips: "Yes, you still recorded me on your roster at that time, but you almost removed me from your roster."

 Lu Huan: “…”

She retorted: "Then why didn't you go to someone else's yard in the middle of the night to raise an army to question me? The palace commander almost dragged me to see the official."

 He was speechless.

Lu Zhen, however, was aggressive and turned over old scores: "If there had been no accident at that time, would you really have dragged me to see the official?"

She was caught off guard by the old debt. Pei Yunying had no choice but to laugh and said: "No."

"real?"

"Really." He tilted his head and glanced at her, "What about you? Were you really planning to kill me that night?"

　　　…”

Lu Zhen turned his head and avoided his question.

He let out a sigh and said coolly: "Doctor Lu is really hard-hearted."

Lu Zhen felt guilty for a moment, then changed his subject as if nothing had happened: "You asked me to watch the fireworks, so just watch the fireworks. What are you talking about?" He raised his head again and looked at the sky above his head.

Li Wenhu deliberately went to the shops in the city to find various fireworks, as if to drive away the disease and plague. Colorful flowers and colors appeared one after another, burning the night.

Just when her eyes were dazzling, suddenly, a white jade open-carved lotus pattern sachet fell in front of her.

Lu Zong was stunned for a moment.

“The epidemic has just passed in southern Jiangsu, and many shops have not opened. I went to see a few, but I didn’t find anything suitable. I will give you something else when I return to Shengjing. I’ll make do with this first and make it your birthday gift.”

Pei Yunying twitched the corner of her lower lip: "It's the first day of the new year. I wish you, Miss Lu, joy and joy forever."

Lu Zhen laughed loudly and reached out to take the sachet.

Pei Yunying's sachet is very beautiful, with exquisite carving workmanship. The familiar cold and light fragrance in it is exactly the same as the fragrance in his arms. She had begged this person several times without success, but unexpectedly, it fell into her hands now.

Seeing her taking the sachet and looking at it, as if she couldn't put it down, Pei Yunying coughed slightly and said, "You can use this sachet for your own personal use. Remember not to show it to outsiders."

Lu Zhen nodded and suddenly looked at him: "Why can't you be exposed in front of outsiders?"

Before Pei Yunying could speak, she continued: "Is it because you are afraid that others will know that I use 'Lover's Fragrance' with you?"

Pei Yunying was stunned for a moment, then tilted her head in disbelief: "You know..."

 Lu Zhen blinked.

she knows.

That was even longer ago. When I went to Guanxiang with Lin Danqing to buy medicinal materials, I passed by a fragrant pharmacy. Lin Danqing wanted to pick out some fragrant lavender. Lu Chen remembered that he had asked Pei Yunying twice for sachets but to no avail, so he asked the shopkeeper if he could make his own incense from someone else's body.

The shopkeeper asked her for the sachet of the other party, but she couldn't take it out. After asking her why and what happened, the shopkeeper laughed clearly.

"Girl, there is a difference between the incense bought in the perfume store and the incense blended by private individuals. Noble men and women do not want to use the ordinary incense that everyone can buy in the perfume store, and often find perfumers to prepare unique incense for themselves. , to show your noble status.

Since it is unique, no two people can use the same fragrance. Unless the two people using incense are husband and wife or lovers, use the same incense to show intimacy. "

“That young master of yours refuses to give you the fragrant recipe, he must be worried about this!”

 Lu Zhen suddenly realized.

 No wonder he looked weird every time she asked him for some fragrant recipes, as if she had done something outrageous. It turned out that she was worried about this.

Pei Yunying stared at her, frowning slightly: "I know you still ask me for it."

 He misunderstood the time when Lu Chen knew it, and Lu Meng did not explain it. He only said: "Even if it is a lover's fragrance, there is nothing wrong between you and me. What are you worried about?"

 “Innocent?”

Pei Yunying raised his eyebrows, looked at her, and suddenly laughed: "I'm not innocent, haven't you always known it?"

 Lu Xu paused.

 He spoke so frankly, and under the fireworks, the eyes in his calm eyes were blazing and unconcealed.

The ship passing by the Spring River made deeper waves. For a moment, her mood fluctuated and she found it difficult to calm down.

Lu Zhuo raised his eyes and looked at him. After a while, he said, "Today is my birthday. Why don't you ask me what my birthday wish is?"

Pei Yunying was startled: "What do you want?"

Lu Zong stretched out his hand and grabbed his collar.

He was tall. When he was dragged, he leaned slightly and looked at her with some confusion. Lu Zhu leaned over and kissed the corner of his lips gently.

 A very light, vague kiss.

 In the midst of the torches and silver flowers, they are as fleeting as those scattered stars.

Pei Yunying looked at her.

She let go of her hand, took two steps back, turned around to leave, but was pulled back.

Those dark and bright eyes clearly reflected the fireworks and her, as soft as the long night.

 In the patchy glow, he lowered his head and kissed Lu Huo.

 In the sky, snow scatters fireworks.

His kiss was light and gentle, like the gentle breeze that occasionally passed by on the Luomei Peak, with a bit of the clear smell of Tusu wine. Lu Zhen was trapped in the other person's arms, raising his head to support his arm, letting the breeze fall on his lips. between.

 She kept pushing this person away.

 You go against your will again and again, but it’s hard to deny that you’re tempted.

 In many moments, when he stopped her from kneeling to Qi Yutai, on a night full of flower fragrance in late spring and early summer in a medical hospital, every time he approached her, she could not avoid the ripples of the moment. The unspoken look in his eyes on Chinese Valentine's Day, the rainy night on the Danfeng stage where he hesitated to speak...

Perhaps even earlier, as early as when they met on a snowy night for the first time, when he lit the lantern...

 The fate of the future has been determined.

 She closed her eyes and hugged the neck of the person in front of her.

 "Pei Yunying..." Lu Zhu muttered vaguely.

The other party was slightly leaned forward by her seduction, and asked gently: "What?"

 “Yes.” Lu Huo said.

 She is not open to him.

 She has selfish motives for him.
