1178 Chapter 1178 Enter the palace?(1/2)
When I returned to Wu’s Mansion with Wu Yanqiu, it was already snowing heavily.?
The north wind whistled, and the snow foam hit the face. I got off the carriage and caught off guard. The snow foam blew into my eyes and made me scream. Caiwei hurried over to support me. Wu Yanqiu waved his hand and asked the person behind me: "Go and call the door and tell my wife that Miss Yan is here."
After saying that, he walked to me: "Are you okay?"
Fortunately, it was just a ball of snow. I rubbed my eyes and it was fine. So I shook my head and walked in with him.
After walking in for a while, she saw Yang Jinyao hurriedly coming out from inside. She seemed to be a little puzzled why I came back with her husband. When we met the door, she looked at us a little confused: "Husband... Sister Yan, why are you--"
Wu Yanqiu walked directly to her. Yang Jinyao was not tall, much shorter than him. When Wu Yanqiu walked to her, he almost completely blocked his wife. I couldn't see what their expressions were. He only saw Wu Yanqiu lifting his hand, as if putting it on her shoulder, and said softly: "Go and make preparations in the kitchen. I'm going to entertain guests today."
“…”
After a while, no one on the other side of him responded.
But at this moment, I probably could understand the confusion in Yang Jinyao's heart and the incredible in his eyes when he looked at him.
Thinking of this, I smiled and said, "No need to worry, just give me a cup of hot tea."
Wu Yanqiu turned around and looked at me. I also crossed his shoulders and saw Yang Jinyao's particularly shining eyes.
I smiled and said, "You are still newly married. If I weren't very cold, I wouldn't have come here to disturb me. I would have been beaten by God."
After saying that, I covered my mouth and started to laugh.
No matter how calm and introverted Wu Yanqiu was, he couldn't help but blush at this time. However, Yang Jinyao in front of him seemed to have not heard it, and his big eyes were still looking at his husband in front of him, as if he was afraid that for a moment, everything in front of him would become a dream.
I didn't stay in the Wu Mansion for a long time, especially when I looked at the smile that could hardly be hidden in Wu Yanqiu's mouth, and was extremely throbbing in Yang Jinyao's big and bright eyes. I was also a person with a wink, so I didn't want to be offensive. But after the carriage drove away, I lifted up the curtain and looked at the couple standing at the gate to see me leave. Wu Yanqiu held his wife's shoulder with one hand, and the snow fell all over the sky, falling thinly on their shoulders, but the figures only made people feel extremely warm.
The carriage left and could not see anything, so I slowly put down the curtain with a smile on my lips.
Caiwei looked at me: "Madam is so happy?"
I smiled and remained silent for a while before saying, "As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy one relative. I helped them form this relative today, but I am afraid that it will be of higher merit than building a seven-level pagoda."
Caiwei smiled: "Madam is talking nonsense. Lord Wu and Miss Jin Yao have already gotten married."
I didn't say anything, but the smile on my lips became deeper.
In fact, I don’t care too much about whether there is this merit. What I care most about today is where Wu Yanqiu went - that is, where Master Huguo practiced.
It turned out that it was in such a hidden suburb, on a mountain.
There is not a place where incense is very popular. I am afraid that even woodcutters and hunters will find it difficult to get there, so I naturally know even less. It is indeed suitable for people's practice and will not be disturbed.
But, disturb...
A smug smile appeared on the corner of my mouth that I couldn't help but see who was there.
|
As the saying goes, things in the world are impermanent.
I found the place where the Master of the Guardian practiced that day. I thought I would see the master himself soon, but I didn’t expect that the capital would be in a curfew from the next day.
Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon.
It is not impossible to go during the day, but with the curfew at night, the inspections of the city guarding during the day have become more stringent, especially at the west gate.
I couldn't help but wonder if my intentions had been seen through.
But since this is the case, I naturally can't take the limelight. After all, Pei Yuanhao's previous arrangement was that he was unwilling to let irrelevant people disturb the mysterious protector of the country. If I insisted on going, it would be to expose his reverse scale, I was afraid that the result would not be good.
So this matter was delayed again.
Seeing the snow on the roof getting thicker and thicker day by day, when I go to bed at night, I often get woken up by the whimpering north wind. I look at the white light on the bed, but when I open the window, it is often late at night. Otherwise, it is also when the sky is about to be brighter in the early morning, only the snow light on the ground is reflected on the window paper, giving people the illusion.
I couldn't help but sigh.
Caiwei brought Xiao Ni and the others to serve me with hot water. When she saw me standing by the bed in thin clothes, she immediately exploded: "Madam!"
As soon as I saw her rolling her sleeves and rushing in, she hurriedly closed the window, just like a child who had made a mistake, but she still couldn't stop her from slamming the door and rushed to me: "How many times have I said it, why don't the lady know how to take care of herself? She was so thin-dressed and stood by the bed to blow the air. What if she caught a cold?" While saying that, she touched my hand and immediately shouted: "Oh, it's so cold!"
I was so annoyed by her nagging that I could only pull my hand back: "I'm fine, you came as soon as I opened the window."
"It's not OK to open it just now!"
She said as she protected me and walked back to the bed to sit down, covering me with the quilt.
I sat cross-legged on the bed like a child, wrapped tightly in a quilt, just like the snowmen made of children outside, looking funny and funny, and I laughed when I sat there.
Caiwei twisted a handkerchief from the hot water in the copper basin and wiped my hands. She looked up at me and said, "What are the madam laughing at?"
"No, nothing."
I smiled and looked outside through the crack in the window. The heavy snow fell down, almost fascinated.
But somehow, I couldn't laugh.
Because I remembered Miaoyan.
She was born in the south. Although she had gone to Dongzhou with us when she was less than one year old, there were memories there at that time. For her, winter was the warmth of Jiangnan. She would never have imagined that there would be such snow scenes, such north winds, and such winters.
But even so, she couldn't see it.
Now she is only trapped in her closed and safe world, and even the prayers in the Taimiao that day did not awaken her.
It has been more than a month since I returned to the capital. I don’t know how many months I will be left for me and her, and I don’t know how many closed things will be in her life in the future, and I don’t know the spring and autumn years.
After wiping my hand, Caiwei raised her head and looked at my lonely eyes, as if she felt something, and said softly: "Madam is missing Miss Miaoyan again, right?"
I glanced at her and didn't say anything.
She sighed lightly, too.
The atmosphere in our mansion is usually very good, especially when Shui Xiu is with her, the two of them are talking and laughing, and I will be happy when I listen to it, but once I think of Miaoyan, no matter how wonderful the joke is, it will not make me look good.
Caiwei didn't say anything anymore, and served me to wash, and breakfast was delivered to the kitchen.
I had no appetite today, so I scooped a spoonful of porridge and took half a sip of it. It took me a long time to delay the food on the table. I didn’t eat much, and Caiwei didn’t know what to say. I could only coax me to eat more, and I sent a message to ask someone to go to the kitchen to get two hot snacks and coax my stomach.
Listening to her words, a voice outside smiled and said, "Why do my sister eats like a child, and she still has to coax her?"
When I heard this sound, I was shocked. When I looked up, I saw Yang Jinyao walking in wearing a big red orangutan felt.
Her snow-white face was as crystal clear as the snow outside. Her cheeks were slightly pink under her red dress. She looked beautiful and energetic, and even her eyes were particularly brighter.
It seems a little different from before.
I knew her change very well, but I didn't say it out loud, and just smiled and said, "Jin Yao is here, why? Don't your husband need to go to court today?"
When she heard that I mentioned Wu Yanqiu, she immediately blushed.
Then, I burst into laughter. Caiwei hurriedly stepped forward to serve and helped her take off her coat and hung it beside her. She walked to me and took my arm. Her face turned red, and even her ears turned red, and she said, "Sister, stop laughing."
I smiled and said, "But you are laughing yourself."
When she heard me say this, her face turned redder.
Xiao Ni and Xixi who were serving next to him went down. Caiwei stood far away. Yang Jinyao and I sat at the table. She held my hands with both hands. Although there was so much snow outside, she came from the snow, but her palms were hot. I could almost feel the jumping and joyful heart in her chest from the temperature of her palms.
I smiled and said, "How is it? Tell me about it."
She raised her bright big eyes and looked at me: "Thank you sister."
"Um?"
"He—" Without saying anything, her face turned redder and she lowered her head shyly. I already understood everything, and I also held her hands tighter, leaned to her ears, and asked in a low voice as low as falling snow: "You... have you completed your family?"
Her face turned red and almost buried her face in her arms. After a while, she nodded gently.
I immediately laughed!
Although I said so much in front of Wu Yanqiu that day, the matter between the couple was only the affairs of the two men and women. Even if outsiders shouted, they couldn't help. Unexpectedly, Wu Yanqiu really figured it out and became a real couple with her.
I was so happy that I could hardly stop myself, holding her hands and rubbing them.
"That's great, it's so great!"
"……Um."
She was so shy that she looked up at me again, with a happy smile on her face. The vivid pleasure almost flowed from the corners of her eyes and mouth, drowning her entire body.
Seeing her like this, I was naturally happy and couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Looking back at the way she came to my mansion and cried in my arms before. At that time, she seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world, but no one could tell those grievances. She couldn't even cry happily and shout bluntly like herself in the past. After crying, all grievances could only be swallowed back into her stomach and still went back to face the man she loved deeply but hurt her extremely.
It turns out that a girl’s sadness comes so easily, and happiness comes so easily.
Being as simple as her may not be a good thing.
I smiled and said softly in her ear: "Have he told you what he said?"
Yang Jinyao's face turned red again, and after a while he said softly: "At the beginning, he didn't say anything. But in the past two days, he began to ask the housekeeper's wife to follow me and teach me some things to deal with. He said, although I am young, I will grow up sooner or later, and I have to learn, and I can't be more talented. In fact, I also know that he treats me as a child. I have tried hard to make myself not so childish. Really!"
She was afraid that I would not believe it, and said, "I came to my sister's place today, and I told him yesterday."
Looking at her serious expression, I nodded gently.
As if she was encouraged, she laughed.
After laughing, a faint confusion suddenly flashed in Jin Yao's eyes: "I just don't know when I want to become a woman who can stand by him and be side by side with him."
I smiled and patted the back of her hand: "As long as he is by your side, sooner or later, you will do it."
To be continued...
