Chapter Seventy-Seven: Severance

He had another long dream.

She dreamed that she had only seen him from a distance through the curtain when she was a young child, and since then, she has never forgotten him again.

Every time she practiced calligraphy in the study, she was always shy and expectant in her heart, and she stared at the master while she was not paying attention to see if the boy in white appeared outside the door.

When he came, everything around him faded and ceased to exist.

I don't know when it started, there was only one person left in her whole world, slowly, step by step, and extremely calmly, as if from the end of fate, like a fleeting shadow.

There are no words to describe his goodness, even what if, no words can describe his laughter.

She gently reached out her hand to touch the corner of his clothes, but when she turned back, he disappeared in front of her little by little.

"Qian Huan!"

"The head of the house?" Ye Zi was really startled when she heard the exclamation of Yihe, the teapot in her hand almost fell to the ground, she was a little frightened and walked to her bedside, "Are you awake?"

"Did I sleep for a long time?"

She rubbed her shoulders, only to feel that her whole body was sore and uncomfortable, and the air was filled with the familiar smell of aromatherapy, and after a long time, she gradually got used to this smell.

I have a lot of contact with things I don't like, and there will always be a day when I can accept it.

"You slept for seven days. Ye Zi looked at her worriedly, "Do you feel any discomfort in your body now?"

"Seven days?"

"On that day, you personally sent Chen Yiyun to the water prison, and when you came out, you drank alone for a whole day, and by the time I found you, you were already drunk and unconscious. Ye Zi said and took out the clothes of Yihe, "Put on the clothes first, and I'll cook you something to eat." ”

"Ye Zi, has Dongye Que ever sent a letter?"

Ye Zi shook his head helplessly.

"Forget it, I don't know where he went to fool around, no matter him. ”

Ye Zi replied and walked out quickly, her current task is to gain the trust of Xuanhe, and nothing else matters.

After changing clothes, he was about to go out, and the two maid-like people saw her and quickly knelt down, "The head of the family, the two of us are Mrs. Yu's dowry girls, now that Mrs. Yu has passed away and the young master has been rescued, we don't know how to thank you, why don't we serve you by your side in the future." ”

"I don't need to. He refused bluntly, "You just take care of Chen Yunsheng, after all, he is also the only bloodline of Mrs. Yu, I am half a Jianghu person, I can take care of myself, it is enough to have Ye Zi by my side." ”

"Since the head of the house doesn't need us, then let's just go, but the current situation is turbulent, and in the past few days when you have been asleep, the town next to you has also been burned and looted, and another group of refugees have fled to us. One of the maids chattered worriedly, "You have just become the head of the family, your position is still unstable, and the Orchid Garden has stood in the south of the Yangtze River for more than a hundred years, but I am afraid that you will be the primary target of those thieves' attacks." ”

Another maid patted her on the shoulder and motioned for her to say nothing.

The two looked at each other a few times, but they couldn't say anything, so they said goodbye.

In troubled times, I can't help myself.

"I cooked noodles for you, you can taste them first, I don't know what you like to eat. Ye Zixing walked into her room with a pot of noodles, put it on the table in a regular manner, and inserted the chopsticks into the bowl.

"Next time I put more soup, I don't like to eat noodles that are so dry. He frowned, but still took a few bites of chopsticks, "Ye Zi, how is the war outside recently?"

"It won't be long before this place will be the same as in the north, with no more lively markets, no more hawkers, and everywhere there will be concessions that they have demarcated, and we will not be able to enter, but they can proudly come to our chassis, and there will be no human rights to speak of. Ye Zi put his hands on his cheeks and sat opposite to him.

"These would-be robbers really think of themselves as human beings. He put down his chopsticks and looked at the table coldly, "I promised the master that I would guard Jiangnan and Orchid Garden, and I would protect everything here to the death." ”

"But your body ......"

He laughed miserably, how is her health, what if she is not good, does anyone in this world care about her health.

Especially after she became the head of the house.

In the eyes of the world, she has turned into a powerful woman in Jiangnan, she is ruthless, she looks down on life and death, and she is excellent in charms.

But they all forgot that she had also revisited her fantasies about life, and she was also a sunny and cheerful little girl.

Seeing that she didn't react for a long time, Ye Zi gently pushed her with her elbow, "Family Master, what are you thinking?"

"I was thinking that I shouldn't hate Qian Huan, and I slowly began to understand him. ”

"Huh?"

Ye Zi looked at Yu He suspiciously.

"Forget it, it's nothing, let's eat first, and then you go out with me to see what's going on outside, I always feel very noisy. After eating a few more bites of noodles, he only felt that his throat was very dry, so he quickly poured a cup of tea, raised his head and drank it all.

The cold tea flowed in her already dry heart, and there was a hint of pleasure.

"Master, this tea is cold, I'll go and pour you a new pot of hot one." Ye Zi reached out to get the teapot, and waved his hand.

"No, I'm full. ”

Ye Zi obediently got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and was about to go out, a maid ran in in a hurry, and almost hit a square.

"You don't have long eyes, you almost knocked over my bowl!" Ye Zi looked at the reckless maid in front of him angrily, and he couldn't get angry, "I don't know why I'm so anxious to die, and I'm not in a hurry to reincarnate." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Sister Ye Zi, I have something urgent to say to the head of the family, I ...... I didn't mean to. The little maid stood in place in a panic, and glanced at him timidly, "There are a few people outside, and they want to see ......you by name."

"Got it. He responded, looking at the little maid's nervous and sweaty appearance, he couldn't help frowning, "You go down first, I'll go out and see who it is." ”

"Yes. The little maid got the order and hurriedly ran away without looking back.

"Why are they so afraid of me?" he looked at her back, as if talking to himself.

"The head of the family doesn't have to worry, I see that she is still young, and she may not have seen much of the world, you are inevitably a little scared as the head of the family. Ye Zi leaned over her and said softly.

"Also, you wait for the kitchen to make some snacks and send some to these maids, it's strange to say, none of the people who accompanied me when I was a child didn't see them, and the whole orchid garden was like being changed again. ”

"Maybe Chen Yiyun deliberately replaced them. ”

"Actually, before I left the Orchid Garden, there were still a few things I still didn't understand, why the enchantment set by the master was broken, why there was a soul conjuring array in the Orchid Garden, and why it was so coincidental that Dongye Que appeared. He remembered all the things in the past, and always felt that he had missed some important clues, but at that time, the old people in the Orchid Garden were gone.

"What does the head of the house mean is that there is someone behind this manipulation of all this?"

"I don't know, forget it, let's go out and have a look first, the visitors are guests, don't keep them waiting. He stopped thinking, those past things can be relieved, and the current troubles should be solved first.
