Chapter 34 Tenderness is like water(1/2)

The night is quiet, and the silver-white moonlight shines through the remaining clouds, illuminating the vast earth.

The lonely little pleasure boat floated on the silent river surface, and the lights in the window were like beans.

Jiang Yi sat behind the desk, holding her side face with her hands, staring at a water curtain on the Qilin paperweight.

In the water curtain is the distant view of Zhonglu Valley, and there is no movement on the messy battlefield everywhere, so that Jiang Yi has been staring at her for a long time and is a little sleepy.

Leng Zhu sat opposite, holding a white cat in her arms, playing with the jade bracelet given by the prince-consort under the desk. She wanted to speak several times and asked the prince-consort when she would come, but she knew in her heart that the princess was more anxious than her. Lingye asked them to wait here just to give them the opportunity to be alone with Zuo Lingquan. Now that the matter is not finished, it is meaningless to be anxious.

Wu Qingwan stood in front of the window, her soft cheeks bathed in the cool moonlight, and her eyes looked at the strange mountains and rivers, with a sigh that seemed to be another world away.

Looking back to the day when Zuo Lingquan had just stepped into Qihuang Valley, he was still a worldly swordsman who had nothing to do with his practice; Wu Qingwan was an elder of the sect, and was placed in a small place like the Dadan Dynasty, and he was also a genuine and famous fairy.

At that time, relying on his "advanced" cultivation, he could give Ling Quan guidance and teaching like an elder, and he could also secretly follow him as a Taoist master when he was patrolling the mountain.

Later, after my mind was exhausted, although my relationship changed, my position between women and men did not change, regardless of whether in life or during practice.

Wu Qingwan originally thought that this situation would last forever, and she had fantasized that when the crisis of the sect passed, she would travel around the world with Lingquan and see the mountains and waters outside...

But who would have thought that Ling Quan's talent was so high that she could not understand, but in just a few years, she had already stood in a position that both her and Jiang Yi could not reach.

Knowing that it is difficult to become a helper to overcome difficulties together, Wu Qingwan decisively gave up the sword skills she practiced since childhood, and changed her medical skills and techniques, hoping that one day she could succeed and she could stand behind Lingquan and exert some meager strength.

Unfortunately, the outside world is too big, there are too many excellent people, and there are always ready-made helpers. If you can't keep up, you can't keep up.

Since the Peach Blossom Lord ran to the front and back, she realized that no matter what she learned, it was just an icing on the cake. Ling Quan did not dislike her, but there was indeed no place around her.

Wu Qingwan had no complaints about this and changed her mind to be a pure little woman. Even if she couldn't help outside, she would be satisfied if she could let Ling Quan feel his wife's tenderness in private.

But now it seems that this little wish is also a luxury...

Wu Qingwan looked at the moonlight that was no different from her hometown and sighed silently. Her eyes were filled with relief at Lingquan's rapid growth, and there was also indescribable helplessness.

Today in Zhonglu Valley, I watched Lingye, Qiu Tao and Miss Qiu help each other. The Peach Blossom Lord control the field in the dark and help Zuo Lingquan defeat the powerful enemy. She also thought that she was one of them. Even if she shouted like a bun, it would be better than watching from a distance. Even if she was afraid that she would become a burden when she got closer.

I can't help on the battlefield, so it's natural that I can't take the initiative to run over and meet again after the end. After all, the mutual comfort that survived the disaster should be left to Lingye and Qiutao, who shared hardships. She did nothing and took the initiative to come over. What's the point of not only reflecting her own uselessness...

But after all, she is Zuo Lingquan's wife. Zuo Lingquan is not only her but only Zuo Lingquan is the only man in her heart...

Wu Qingwan folded her hands around her waist. For some reason, her eyes were a little sore. Thinking about it, she said:

"Jiang Yi."

"Um?"

Jiang Yi woke up from her drowsiness, sat up straight, and looked at the mature beauty in front of the window:

"Auntie, has Zuo Lingquan come here?"

"No, well... I don't know how Qihuang Valley is now. I haven't heard of it for so long. I'm very worried... Your junior sister, you are eighteen years old this year, and you are at the age of having just started to fall in love..."

With a soft voice in his ears, Jiang Yi was a little confused, and after thinking about it for a while, she smiled:

"We don't need to worry about these things, my uncle and the others will pay attention to it... By the way, the emperor's brother is still seventeen or eighteen this year, and the candidate for the queen has not yet been decided, and I don't know what is going on now..."

Wu Qingwan turned around, sat down on the beauty couch, pursed her lips, and some words came to her lips, but she didn't say it, but just smiled softly.

Leng Zhu touched the cat's claws, glanced at the two of them, thought about it and said:

"Auntie, do you want to go back to Qihuang Valley?"

Wu Qingwan smiled and picked up the robe that had been halfway through the needle and continued to thread the needle. She did not nod, but did not shake her head.

Jiang Yi seemed as carefree as she was when she was young, and even a little arrogant, but after so many years of walking, she had already grown up with Lingye. She saw that Wu Qingwan wanted to go back to her parents' home, so she glared at Leng Zhu:

"There is nothing to worry about in Qihuang Valley, why would my aunt want to go back?...We have to investigate the situation in Posazhou with Lingye Hu Meizi. Do you really want to go back and get things done together..."

"oh……"

Leng Zhu knew that this was not what she said, but she nodded weakly.

Wu Qingwan lowered her head and stroked her exquisitely crafted robe. Before she could speak, a 'bang' sound came from outside the pleasure boat, and someone fell on the deck.

The pleasure boat rose and fell slightly, and the three people in the room turned their heads and looked at the door at the same time, and a familiar voice came from outside:

"Why are you coaching Leng Zhu again? Did Leng Zhu make a mistake again? Come on, my husband will help you teach her a lesson..."

While speaking, the cabin door opened and a handsome figure in a white robe appeared in front of him with a bright smile.

Wu Qingwan instantly put away the thoughts in her heart, showed a gentle smile, and got up and walked towards the door:

"Ling Quan, are you finished doing it? You weren't injured when you were in the fight just now?"

"No, I'm fine..."

...

Jiang Yi sat at the desk and did not get up. She wanted to look like she didn't miss her at all. She continued to stare at the water curtain, but when she saw Wu Qingwan's face recovering, she thought about it and said:

"Zuo Lingquan, come here."

Zuo Lingquan just held Qingwan's hand that stretched out to tidy up her clothes. Hearing this, he came to the desk and looked at the water curtain on the table:

"What? Is there a situation?"

Jiang Yi raised her hand, pinched Zuo Lingquan's sleeve, and brought him to her face, making a gesture to kiss her, but after gently tapping her red lips on her side, she came to Zuo Lingquan's ear and whispered in a low voice:

"Auntie..."

Zuo Lingquan listened, blinked his eyes, and his hand that was about to hug Jiang Yi was temporarily stopped.

After hearing this, he lit up on Jiang Yihong's lips, stood up and looked at Qingwan.

Wu Qingwan thought Jiang Yi was intimate with Ling Quan and didn't want to interfere. She turned her eyes outside the door, as if she was looking for Lingye and others, and could only see her back.

Zuo Lingquan was silent for a moment, slowly walked to the front, hugging Qingwan's shoulder:

"The moonlight is pretty, should I go out for a walk?"

Wu Qingwan paused, looked at Zuo Lingquan and said softly:

"What's the improvement in the wilderness? You finally came here, don't hurry up and practice with Jiang Yi? She was so greedy that she couldn't even sleep."

Jiang Yi blushed, but did not deny it, but said:

"Zuo Lingquan, if you want to see the moon, hurry up and come back early after watching it, so as not to let Lingye and my aunt come back, and I have no more fun."

Wu Qingwan wanted to say something, but before she could say anything, she was hugged and floated up, flew out of the cabin, and came to the river outside.

Wu Qingwan guessed that it was Jiang Yi who was talking nonsense. Maybe she thought it seemed too pretentious. She patted Zuo Lingquan on the shoulder:

"What are you going to carry me out alone? I have to think about Jiang Yi, I just serve you with her. I will give me a small meal. What should I do if Jiang Yi is jealous?"

Zuo Lingquan did not respond, hugged Qingwan and flew over the mountains and rivers under the moonlight, came to the willow forest on the bank of the river, and found a white stone. The two of them stood on it.

When Wu Qingwan saw Zuo Lingquan disobediently, she didn't say much, looked at the pleasure boat on the river and looked like she was admiring the moonlight.

Zuo Lingquan looked at Qingwan's side face, brewed for a moment, and said with a soft laugh:

"Jiang Yi just said, are you missing home?"

Wu Qingwan responded with a gentle face:

"Where did I come from? Isn't my home just where you are? Isn't it normal to miss you?"

This love words are very skillful, but unfortunately they are not the truth.

Zuo Lingquan knew that Qingwan had a gentle and restrained personality and would not express her personal emotions in front of him. Thinking about it, he could only say:

"I really want to go back too. I haven't finished the matter outside, so I really don't have a chance."

"You have to do what you should do. Now you are exploring outside, so that you can be carefree under the moon in the future? Just get through these days..."

"Yes, I think so too." Zuo Lingquan smiled and put his hand on Qingwan's shoulder.

Wu Qingwan leaned her head against Zuo Lingquan's shoulder:

"Everyone understands the truth, I didn't say that you shouldn't be venturing outside, just..."

"Just what?" Zuo Lingquan looked at Qingwan's cheek, his eyes serious and focused.

"well……"

Wu Qingwan sighed in a faint voice, and a three-point loss appeared on her cheek: "I was just thinking about what the point of running out with me."

Zuo Lingquan blinked, thought about it and said with a smile:

"The family should be together, so there is no meaning to say. If even the people around you have to figure out the meaning of existence, wouldn't the weak parents and hungry children have lost their value of existence..."

"But I am healthy and a normal person who can support myself."

Wu Qingwan looked up at the man beside her, her eyes still as gentle as water:

"Lingquan, I know what you think. You think everyone around you is very important. You can't distinguish between the severity and the distance just because of your strength and weakness. You want to treat everyone around you equally and let everyone around you stay by your side."

Zuo Lingquan nodded: "Isn't people living just for the sake of happiness for the whole family? If they can reunite with their families, who would be willing to be a wanderer who is wandering outside..."

"In order not to neglect the people around you, even if Jiang Yi and I can't help, you will find a way to let us follow us, encourage us, and do our best to make us do something, and don't feel like we're just a vase..."

"What vase..."

"Listen to me."

Wu Qingwan looked at Zuo Lingquan's eyes, and her eyes rarely showed a bit of toughness:
To be continued...
