After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide

Chapter 117 Seeing things and missing people

……

There are no fireworks at the border this year.

At midnight, everything in Shabei City was quiet and cold, with only the whistling of the cold wind in the ears.

A tough battle had just been fought outside the city during the day, and we don’t know what the situation will be like tomorrow. Right now, except for the people on night duty, I’m afraid even the cats and dogs in the alleys have gone to bed.

On days like this, who cares whether anyone stays up on New Year’s Eve or whether there will be fireworks in the New Year?

But there are people who suffer from insomnia and cannot sleep.

Someone wearing a red, orange, feathered cloak with a white fox fur lining was sitting on the roof, holding a persimmon-colored rabbit-head sachet in his hand, and gazing up at the night sky. That was the direction of Shangjing.

There was a slight crackling sound behind me.

Then a voice chuckled and said teasingly: "Is this...reminding people of something by looking at it?"

Ke Xin felt his heart skip a beat and subconsciously put away the sachet, opening his mouth to refute.

Ke Yu smiled mercilessly and said, "Don't hide it, I saw it all."

Ke Xin: “…”

He had the sachet in his hand but had not had time to put it back into his pocket. The situation was very awkward. Ke Xin reached out and scratched the tip of his nose. In the night, the tips of his ears turned slightly red.

He said, "It's not what Brother Yun Yan thinks."

Ke Yu smiled with an ambiguous meaning.

After putting away the sachet, Ke Xin said seriously: "This is my first time to come to the border. Such a quiet New Year's Eve inevitably reminds me of the bustle in the capital."

Ke Yu walked over to sit next to him and said, "Oh my!" "Are you really thinking about the bustling night market?" He shook his head, "I don't believe it."

Ke Xin was speechless for a moment.

After a moment, he said helplessly: "You know how this marriage came about. It is already very difficult for me not to hate her. How can I be moved?"

He thought that he didn't have that kind of feeling for Shang Tingli and was not moved at all.

Ke Yu did not refute him, but just looked at him: "If you are not moved, why do you use the things your sister-in-law gave you to miss her? And why are you afraid of being seen?"

Ke Xin paused.

I wanted to ask, "How do you know it was a gift from her?", but then I remembered that it was a rabbit-head sachet. Something so cute and iconic could only have been made by her.

"How can a grown man's sachet be so cute? Isn't this... shameful?" Ke Xin silently retorted.

He could secretly like cute things, but he couldn't let anyone know. He always felt that this was inconsistent with his image and damaged his dignity.

"Xingchen." Ke Yu called out slowly.

Ke Xin tilted his head to look at him.

"Shame is shame, guilt is guilt, the two cannot be confused." Ke Yu's voice was filled with laughter, "I wonder if Xingchen's heartbeat was disordered when he was caught?"

Ke Xin's eyebrows jumped, he frowned and remained silent.

Ke Yu said, "Love often comes from nowhere and goes deep. From the way I see you, it doesn't seem like you are simply ashamed, but more like you are guilty."

"How could..."

"Hey, don't rush to refute me."

Ke Yu interrupted him: "You will unconsciously find a quiet place where no one is around to take out the sachet and look at it again and again, and you will subconsciously think of your sister-in-law's appearance. I think in your mind, you remember exactly what hairpin your sister-in-law wore that day."

Ke Xin: “…” What are you talking about?

"Are you thinking about the colorful fireworks in Shangjing City, or the beautiful lady in Shangjing City——"

Ke Yu stood up, patted his shoulder, and chuckled: "You know what's going on. We'll be busy tomorrow, so go back and rest early. Let's go."

After saying this, he left the roof with ease.

Ke Xin looked at the direction where Ke Yu left in silence for a long time, then looked up at the night sky again and murmured, "Brother Yun Yan, you are joking. How could I think of her, and how could I remember what hairpin she wore that day?"

He couldn't help but sneer.

As if to prove that he was not just reminded of the person by the sight of the object, Ke Xin took out the sachet from his pocket again, grabbed the string in the middle of the rabbit head and made the sachet spin in his hand, round and round.

Suddenly, a smiling face appeared in his mind uncontrollably.

The next moment, he seemed to see her standing in front of him, and he began to look at her unconsciously.

She wore a hibiscus-colored dress with a white feather gauze over it, her hair was combed in a Chaoyun Jinxiang bun, with a butterfly gold hairpin, a pair of crabapple flower hairpins, a kingfisher hairpin in her hair, and jade combs on both sides. There was a white pearl under a crane night flower between her eyebrows, kingfisher silk earrings with pearls, and a peace lock necklace around her neck...

When she handed him the sachet, he saw a snow-white wrist with a red jade bracelet hanging on it.

He even remembered that the red jade bracelet was the gift his mother gave to his bride when she got married.

However, what he saw most clearly was her stunning face. The smooth and full forehead, the clear almond eyes under the distant mountain-like eyebrows, the feathery eyelashes like fans, the delicate and exquisite lips under the small and exquisite nose... He also remembered the delicate black mole in the middle of her face.

Ke Xin froze in place.
