Southern Xinjiang has always been a savage land with beautiful scenery, but most people in the Central Plains dare not set foot because there are many people there, and they all have special skills and make good use of Gu techniques.
The women there are born with excellent looks, but most of their hearts are more vicious, so once the world finds that they are women from southern Xinjiang, even the most beautiful people will stay away, because there are too many Central Plains men who were buried. Take the example of Southern Xinjiang.
Qingli had guessed about the origin of this Zifu, but he only regarded it as an ordinary woman. He never thought that she was from southern Xinjiang. Judging from the miserable expression of Master Shen, he knew that the relationship between the two was very close.
Shen Luo frowned deeply and looked down at the scissors on the table. There were still some crystal clear drops of water remaining on the sharp edge, reflecting the rose, there was an illusion of blood drops.
Master Shen sat down sadly, his eyes full of sorrow. After a long time no words, Qingli wondered why he had such an expression. For the time being, the looks and expressions that had been bewitched before were ignored, because those were not real Master Shen.
After he woke up, Qing Li realized that he was completely different from what he had imagined before. He was a very gentle man. Although he was a little old, he seemed to be only about forty. He was not too old. .
Seeing his full eyes of grief, she was a little at a loss. Shen Luo also sat down. She was absolutely stunned. There was a little sharp star in her eyes, and she softly said, "Daddy, Zifu, she is with you. What is the relationship?"
Master Shen raised his eyebrows and let out a long sigh. His eyes seemed to look into the distance, vaguely wanting to find something from that direction, faintly revealing a kind of brilliance, "She is the love of my life."
Such a short sentence contained thousands of amorous feelings. Qing Li only felt that the man in front of him did not look like a person over half a hundred years old, but rather like a young man with seventeen and eighteen affections.
With that kind of affection, Shen Luo didn't speak, and her expression was very calm. She just waited for what Master Shen would say next.
"At that time, she called me Changshan, and I called her Afu." His thoughts seemed to have drifted a long time ago. Qingli didn't know until now that Master Shen's name was called Changshan, Shen Changshan.
"Afu is the jewel in the palm of the head of Qingfu Village in Southern Xinjiang. The village is so beautiful. Sometimes in my dreams, I return to the place full of hibiscus flowers."
Shen Luo interrupted Shen Changshan's memories in a timely manner. She tapped her fingers on the table lightly and made a faint knock, "Daddy, why did you go to Southern Xinjiang?"
Shen Changshan's eyes were a little longing, "When I was young, my family had a wealth of money. It was really boring to live with this money every day. Later, I accidentally heard about the beautiful scenery of southern Xinjiang and the women there."
"As a young and frivolous, I thought about going to that place to take a look, maybe I can find someone I love." Shen Luo looked at Shen Changshan a little displeased, with a bit of resentment in her eyes, "But then you obviously married your mother. Ah! How can you leave such a big family business aside?"
This is the first time Qingli heard Shen Luo mention her mother. She has lived in Shen Mansion for some time, but she has never seen the mistress, except for a few concubines.
The sadness of Shen Changshan turned into a long silence, Shen Luo's eyes became more and more blurred, tears turned the light into more and more hazy, but he did not fall, allowing the wind outside the window to blow in, drying the water drops in his eye sockets.
"I, I'm sorry for your mother, but A Luo, you have to know that the people I marry are not what I love. Those are just marriages. I don't want to. It's like if I pick another one to match Shen's family. The man comes and orders you to marry him, will you be happy?" He said earnestly.
Shen Luo naturally shook his head, Qing Li looked forward slightly, "Shen Luo, your mother..."
She hadn't finished asking her words, but it was clear enough, Shen Luo's eyes were sour, but she had a stubborn look. She didn't look at Shen Changshan again, but slowly turned her eyes to look at Qingli, "I haven't seen my mother. , She died when I was born."
Seeing the slight pain in her eyes, Qing Li didn't ask any more. Shen Changshan sighed deeply and said: "A Luo, this is the truth. Even if you didn't answer, I knew it in my heart. If you let you put down Mu Qin You certainly won't want to."
Shen Luo nodded calmly. Although the movements were very light, Shen Changshan still saw clearly. He smiled low and continued: "Later, I embarked on the journey, and everyone in the world is facing the barbaric dangers of southern Xinjiang. , But the harder it gets, the more I yearn for it. It took me a whole month for this trip, but luckily it arrived."
"I walked through many villages and towns in southern Xinjiang, but only chose to stay in Qingfu Village. That was the first time I saw Afu. She was carrying a bamboo basket with some hibiscus flowers diagonally inserted in it. She was so touching at the time. Her long hair was braided into a long braid and hung down on her chest, so bright and lovely, I will probably never forget the way I saw her for the first time."
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with joy.
Both Shen Luo and Qingli followed his words back to southern Xinjiang at that time.
It was a certain day more than twenty years ago.
The sun today is pretty good, not as poisonous as the previous few days, Shen Changshan took out the Jinpa in his arms and wiped his forehead. This southern Xinjiang is really big, and it's already half a month after only a few travels.
"Qingfu Village", he looked up at the plaque in front of him. The carvings were extremely delicate. The hibiscus flowers were carved into life on the wooden plaque, stained with milky white lacquer ink. When he traveled from afar, he thought it was a real hibiscus. The flowers didn't realize that they were carved until they got closer.
I can’t help but sigh. In these days, I have visited five or six villages, but the villagers in those places are not very friendly. In addition, he is dressed like a Central Plains man, and he is even more sneer at. Love him too much.
Shen Changshan didn't care, he had time now, and he just walked slowly, but looking at Qingfu Village in front of him, he couldn't move his steps anyway.
He tightened the horse's rein, and walked in. There are grassy trails under his feet. On both sides of the road are pebbles covered with moss. It has no meaning, but he walked for about half of the time, but he was alone. Not seen.
It was almost dusk now, the sun turned orange, and he walked to a pond full of hibiscus flowers. There were a few larger stones just enough to accommodate a person to sit still.
He tied the horse with his luggage under the tree beside him, and sat down quietly. These hibiscus are really beautiful, so white that he has never seen before in Hecheng.
This place is very pure, there are some houses in the distance, it is the place where the villagers of this village live, but he is really tired now, just want to sit and enjoy the beautiful sunset that day.
But when I saw it, I couldn’t move my eyes anymore. The woman seemed to have walked out from the setting sun. A stone road was built in the middle of the pond. She was in the middle of the road, bowed slightly, and turned her hands. , A hibiscus was thrown into the bamboo basket on his back.
Her movements were very light and quick, and within a short while, the basket was filled with lotus, and Shen Changshan was watching so obsessively, always watching.
It wasn't until the woman approached that he saw it really. From his birth to the present, he has never seen such a smart girl. The dark black coat is tightly attached to his body, revealing half of his arms and wrists that look like white lotus roots. The last string of small silver bells is particularly eye-catching.
The embroidery on the clothes is delicate and bright, and the skirt she wears is not the same as that of the Zhongyuan girl. Her skirt only reaches the knees, revealing the calf, and the boots are tied to the calf with a crimson ribbon, which is very beautiful.
Naturally, her appearance is needless to say, this is the beauty that Central Plains can't see, her features are exquisite, and her eyes are watery and very moving.
She tilted her head slightly, and the thick black braid fell to her chest, concise and capable. Shen Changshan almost forgot to blink. The girl looked back and saw a man sitting on a rock not far away. It was just this man. It's so strange that I can't figure out how to wear a long robe in such a hot weather.
She curled her lips, she was about to leave, Shen Changshan saw this, and got up busy, her eyes dazzling, and when she lifted her leg, she was about to run towards the woman, yelling: "Don't go!"
As soon as the woman heard this, she turned her head and looked over. She was surprised that Shen Changshan was running too fast, and the stones in the middle of the pool were extremely slippery. No, she tripped her feet on the corners of her clothes and stepped on the moss on the stones. Yelled: "Ah! Girl, be careful! Ah! Girl, avoid it!"
As soon as the voice fell, the whole person fell forward, and the woman moved a step to the left calmly, and Shen Changshan fell straight into the water! Water splashed all around, Shen Changshan thumped in the water, his hair was all greasy on his forehead, and he couldn't even see his face clearly.
The woman laughed loudly. She pointed at Shen Changshan in the water, and laughed loudly, "You are so interesting, you can't use kung fu, it's useless!"
Shen Changshan fluttered in the water in horror, then fell down and then floated up again.
"Girl save my life, me, I don't know how to water!"
The woman dropped her embracing hands, her voice was full of disdain, "Come on, all of us here will be born with water. Why don't you make sense?"
But Shen Changshan was already unable to move. Seeing that his whole body sank, the woman became a little anxious, and she repeatedly called out: "Hey! Who!"
It's a pity that only a few bubbles floated on the water, and no sound was heard anymore. The woman stomped her foot, and she was worried and said anxiously: "No, you really don't know how to water!"
Seeing that there was no movement in the pool, the water was very clear, and Shen Changshan's eyes were tightly closed, sinking downward.
The woman hurriedly took the back basket down, placed it on the rocky ground on one side, and jumped into the pool!
The sunset is so beautiful, sometimes birds chirping, only the sudden "puff" sound on the water adds a different feeling to this calm landscape... RS
