The Reborn Concubine Returns

Chapter 172: Heavy Chapter Taolin

And Zhu Qing, who was quietly watching everything, just wanted to say, the dramatist in this room.

But aside from these small episodes, the meal was quite warm and harmonious (undercurrent turbulent).After the meal, Bai Qingran didn't touch the pastries that Chongjin had arranged. If he still had the stomach to fill those pastries after the meal just now, Gu Qingping would probably make him poor. .

After Bai Qingran finished drinking a cup of jasmine tea brought by Jiang An, he told Gu Li another purpose of coming to Jiangnan this time.Gu Qingping couldn't help being surprised when he heard about Bai's father. Although he and Qingran had met and known each other for many years, he had never heard Qingran talk about his family other than Gu Li, let alone Gu Li. Bai Qingran's family had experienced such a thing.

After hearing Bai Qingran's words, Gu Li was a little surprised and looked up at Bai Qingran for a while.It was only then that Gu Li realized that the thin younger brother in his impression who always needed to hide behind him for protection had already grown into the tall, handsome, calm and dignified appearance he is now. He had told him the stories of his father early on, so he Reasonable, Bai Qingran has no reason to refuse today's request.

After Gu Li pondered for a while, when he looked at Bai Qingran, he still had the same pitiful look as when he asked him for an extra bowl of sugar water when he was a child. , Gu Li's heart suddenly softened, and he smiled and agreed to Bai Qingran's request.

He called Zhu Qing and Jiang An to tell them to go down. Tonight, Qingyuan will close the museum for a rest. In the afternoon, they will prepare a sedan chair for them, and prepare to go to Bai Fusheng's peach grove that has not been disturbed for more than ten years.

Qingyuan's sedan chairs follow Gu Li's usual indifferent preference, they are all plain white and light gray, and the amazing bright color is foggy blue.Although the interior layout is not different from those wealthy and wealthy families, it was still disgusted by Chongjin, who likes gorgeousness, for a long time.In the end, Gu Li used practical actions to prove to Chongjin that this was a small sedan chair pulled by a donkey, which was brightly colored and did not even have a wooden board inside. Who is really in control of this place? A person with financial power.

So under the pressure of power, Chongjin still couldn't help showing a commercial smile when he saw these sedan chairs that looked like he was going to attend a funeral, for fear that Gu Li would be unhappy and order a sedan chair for him.

The sedan chair was very spacious, and the atmosphere of the four of them talking and laughing along the way was very harmonious.It's just that the more he got to the peach forest, the more Gu Li's expression became uncontrollable and condensed.In fact, the peach forest is not very far from Gu Li's Qingyuan, and you can see it in less than half an hour's drive, but after all these years, although Gu Li has sent a wave towards the peach forest every year A group of people went to take care of the peach grove without being disturbed by the world.But Gu Li never disturbed Bai Fusheng's tranquility, and he never had the courage to step into that peach grove again. Every time he got close to it, he couldn't help but think of the day when Bai Fusheng left.

When Gu Li was seven years old, he saw with his own eyes that Bai Fusheng, who was always dressed in ethereal white clothes, had a gentle expression, as if Bai Fusheng, who was about to ascend to immortality in the next moment, had to close his eyes forever after he woke up. His eyes rose to a bright star in the sky.No matter how seriously ill or how bullied he was, the father who would always smile at him gently and caress his soft hair with his big warm hands, in just one day, turned into a handful of people who couldn't figure out what it was. The ashes were placed in a small box.

After seeing the small box, Gu Li took a lot of effort to accept the fact that Bai Fusheng is really gone. The effort was really too much, it almost took all the strength in little Gu Li's body. To be drained.It's just that Gu Li, who has been used to being obedient since he was a child, still took the small box.

On that bitterly desolate late autumn evening, the little Gu Li, holding the small box containing Bai Fusheng, sat blankly under the peach tree with no leaves left. His eyes rolled silently onto the mahogany box, and there was a slight thud, and he returned to calm.

Gu Li couldn't remember exactly how long he stayed there that day, but every time he thought about it later, Gu Li felt that it was probably the time he spent his whole life in tears, which would lead to the fact that in the next few decades, even if he was No matter how wronged or sad I was, I never shed a single tear.It's not that he doesn't cry, but he doesn't dare to cry at all, he always feels that Bai Fusheng can see his tears, he makes his father so proud, how can he cry to make his father sad?

Little Gu Li didn't know how long he had been crying, so he wiped his red and swollen eyes with his sleeve.Carefully put the small box on the ground full of peach mud, and then carefully attached handfuls of dirt to the box with small hands, watching the land slowly return to level, Bai Fusheng finally Back to his favorite peach grove, Gu Li followed Bai Fusheng's instructions to him, and did not set up any stone monument for Bai Qingran, except for tying a light pink silk scarf on the peach grove. , and followed the old housekeeper back to the Bai family.

I don't know what kind of magic that ribbon is. Under the erosion of wind and rain for more than ten years, it is actually not damaged at all except for some color fading.Every time Gu Li sent someone to check and got this result, it would always make Gu Li choke for a while, and then get drunk, suppressing his heart and running towards the peach forest several times. desire.

But today Gu Li chose to accompany Bai Qingran to this peach forest again, in order to let Bai Fusheng, who has always loved Bai Qingran very much, take a good look at this child whom he has never seen since he was a baby, Secondly, after more than ten years, he just wanted to understand today why he, as Bai Fusheng's son, avoided seeing that Taolin.From Bai Qingran's natural tone today, Gu Li also felt that his persistence in the past ten years was simply too childish and naive.He said that he was afraid of disturbing Bai Fusheng's tranquility, but in fact, he was just a coward who could not accept Bai Fusheng's death after all these years, and he was just having a childish temper with Bai Fusheng.The opportunity this time is not only to accompany Bai Qingran to meet Bai Fusheng, but also the key for him to unravel his knots in the past ten years.

It's just that the ideal of Taoism is understood, and the ideal of returning to Taoism is understood.The sooner he arrived at the Taolin, the more Gu Li wanted to escape, and cold sweat broke out in his tightly clenched hands.
