Deep Courtyard Quiet: Cheng Yue
That night was the most memorable night in the memories of Zhao Shinan and Du Heng. The dye in the pot is boiling, and the craftsmen are in full swing. A pot of dye boiled out, and the snow-white raw silk was processed and put in, and thousands of piles of snow turned into thousands of flowers, bright and bright.
When the wind blew at night, Zhao Shinan hugged Du Heng tightly: "Go back and rest, it's too hard." ”
"Nope. Du Heng stubbornly shook his head and drilled into Zhao Shinan's arms, "I also want to see the first thread come out." ”
The autumn color was getting thicker and the sky was slightly cool, Du Heng put on a crimson cloak and accompanied Zhao Shinan to sit in the dyeing workshop and wait all night. When the east gradually turned white, Du Heng and Zhao Shinan, whose eyes were red, finally waited for the first load, the night had not faded, and the color could not be seen clearly, but they felt extraordinarily bright.
Zhao Shinan held Du Heng's hand tighter and tighter, and the anxiety in his heart reached its peak at this moment. If it succeeds, not only will the extinct drunken flower brocade see the light of day, but also the Zhao family's brocade will rush to a new height, and the significance is too unusual.
The sun finally showed its face, the night was gone, and the newly dyed silk was in the morning sun, whether it was red, purple, bean green, or even indigo, all the silk was glowing with colorful light in the positive color, like a brilliant glow.
"It's done. The craftsmen cheered.
Zhao Shinan squeezed Du Heng's hand hard, breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head slightly and looked at the birds passing in the air, and suddenly felt that the sky blue was extraordinarily magnificent.
Du Heng's eyes were already red with excitement, Zhao Shinan looked back at the woman next to him who seemed to be soft and strong, a kind of warmth surged up all over his body, at the moment of success, someone accompanied and shared, that person was his own woman, Zhao Shinan only felt that all the passion and heroism were on his body.
He instructed his subordinates to send Du Heng back to his room to rest. He continued to stare at the other pots, which were filled with ingredients from other recipes. I don't know what the outcome will be.
Du Heng slept soundly that night, and when she woke up, it was already evening. An aunt came back and forth with a happy face: "Young grandma, the young master ordered that when you wake up, you will go to the dyeing workshop." ”
Du Heng hurriedly freshened up, changed into a green dress, and followed his aunt to the dyeing workshop. But he was stunned. There was a courtyard of tables, chairs, and benches in the dyeing house, and all the men gathered around ten large tables, on which was a jar of wine.
Du Heng and his ladies went to the hut in the west, and everyone didn't have the heart to eat, looking at the arrogant men in the courtyard outside the house, drinking bowl by bowl. That night was a carnival after victory, no one restrained the high and low status, and everyone drank and staggered. Zhao Shinan is even more passionate and generous, respectfully respecting the two gods of Mei Ge and respecting everyone, and going on bowl by bowl, without frowning.
Du Heng looked at the enthusiasm of the eyes, and also picked up the wine bowl in the room: "Let's not be restrained, let's do it together." The young grandmother spoke, and everyone did not shirk any more, drink more if they could drink, take a sip if they can't drink, and everyone was happy with the wine, and after a while, the house and the house were lively. The aunts in the house taught Du Heng how to give birth to boys and girls, Du Heng was not shy when he drank too much, and asked the details of how to give birth to a son.
was asking energetically, but she felt a cold neck, and turned her head to see that Zhao Shinan had already stood behind her at some point, and the women in the room were half drunk and quiet.
"You go on. Zhao Shinan said to them with a smile and dragged Du Heng up, "Let's go back first." Completely ignoring the frowning of the women in the room.
Du Heng was taken away by Zhao Shinan in such a big way, and his face turned red: "What are you doing, you are serious." ”
"What's the use of saying, it's serious for me to do it with you when I go back. Zhao Shinan laughed loudly. This is the first time Du Heng has heard Zhao Shinan smile so heartily, it is a kind of comfort from the inside out, and he can't help but rejoice.
Entering the door, Zhao Shinan couldn't wait to press Du Heng under him, and said vigorously: "After talking for a long time, I still don't practice how to have a son." ”
Du Heng didn't know whether he was ignited by the wine or ignited by Zhao Shinan's passion, the first time he was not so twisted, with Zhao Shinan's movements, she happily agreed, and her response made Zhao Shinan even more crazy, and shouted Du Heng's name again and again.
"Heng'er, I always don't have enough for you, what should I do?" Zhao Shinan stroked the person in his arms, and he didn't know how many times he had an impulse again.
Du Heng was a little distracted, pushed Zhao Shinan, blushed and said, "You are powerful, three wives and four concubines are not enough for you." ”
"I don't want three wives and four concubines, I just want you. Zhao Shinan's hand went down again.
Du Heng twisted, busy changing the topic: "By the way, this time it's done, what's the name after weaving brocade?
Zhao Shinan's hand was finally honest, and there was a hint of pride in his deep voice: "The silk in the afternoon is better than in the morning, not only colorful, but also divided into two colors on a silk, absolutely." ”
"Really?" Du Heng was unheard of and curious, "How did you get it?"
"It is estimated that the two gods of Mei Ge have appeared, and after dyeing in the morning with tung seeds, the lime is solidified, and then dyed, strange, and two colors come out. Zhao Shinan pinched Du Heng's face, "You just wait to be the young grandmother of the first brocade in Jiangnan." ”
Du Heng only felt that his heart was about to fly out, and he quickly pecked Zhao Shinan on the face and retracted it into the quilt.
Zhao Shinan's face stiffened, his heart jumped up, he couldn't help pulling the quilt off, and looked at Du Heng's voice very deep: "Heng'er, this time, I want you to come up with the name." ”
"Me?" Du Heng was a little surprised, "Why?
"Without you, there would be no silk. Zhao Shinan was a little emotional, "This is our silk, so I naturally want you to name it." ”
"Our silk", Du Heng suddenly felt full, as if she was strongly shocked, she never knew that people's feelings could be so intense and deep, and they could be so lingering, from the initial reluctance to marry Zhao Shinan, to this moment her heart was overflowing with sweetness, and she understood for the first time the feeling of "I want to know you and live a long life". If she could, she would be willing to stay with Zhao Shinan for the rest of her life, holding the hand of her son, and growing old with her son.
"Our silk is called Cheng Yue, is it okay?" Du Heng asked tentatively. This is her careful thinking, the silk is long, and she hopes that the love can also be long.
Zhao Shinan only understood what Du Heng meant in an instant, and only hugged her tightly into his arms, and his voice was quiet: "Okay, Cheng Yue silk, the brocade woven is Cheng Yue brocade." Heng'er, it's good to have you in this life. "No wonder people talk about love, love is really like silk, delicate and long.
Zhao Shinan's heart was beating very fast, and he only realized at this moment that the former Fengyue was really just a passing eye, there was no woman, so that he had the heart at this moment, and there was no woman who would say "Cheng Yue" softly, but it gave him the desire to hold his hand for a lifetime. In this life, if there is a next life, I want to stay with her. Who said that the ancients were dull? This love story is simply earth-shattering and lingering.
The next day, Zhao Shinan officially worshiped the two gods of Meige and officially named the newly dyed silk "Chengyue Silk". Zhao Shinan and his craftsmen are still experimenting with how to keep improving, dyeing evenly and fixing the color for a long time. And Du Heng has been tossed by Zhao Shinan for the past few days, so he has to rest at home and walk around the dyeing workshop in his spare time.
In the afternoon, Du Heng was wandering outside the door, and suddenly a figure knelt in front of Du Heng: "Young grandmother, save Ling Quan." ”
Du Heng was stunned for a moment, looked at the person in front of him carefully, and recognized it, it was Zhao Lingquan's mother, who hadn't seen her for a few months, she was a lot old and haggard, and she became emaciated. Du Heng's head exploded with a bang, and Zhao Lingquan, like a distant name, suddenly popped up like a bomb. Du Heng hurriedly helped her up and asked, "What's wrong with Ling Quan?"
Zhao Lingquan's mother wiped her tears and said, "The student movement, Lingquan was arrested. Tianxiong came back with a message, and he would not be willing to dredge it until he needed a hundred oceans. Our family, how can we have so much money, Mrs. Zhao doesn't care, she opened up with relatives and neighbors, and only borrowed 30 oceans. If it weren't for the fact that I really couldn't do it, I wouldn't have come to ask for a young grandmother. ”
"After taking the money, are you sure you can save it?" Du Heng's voice trembled.
"Ling Quan's father has already gone to Shanghai with Tianxiong to see it, this time the movement has arrested a lot of people, and it has been locked up, Ling Quan is a little minion, and he can come out if he gives money. Young grandma, I didn't mean to bother you, I also know that Ling Quan has caused you trouble, but anyway, for the sake of acquaintance, you can save him, locked up in the police station, I don't know if I will be beaten and scolded, and if it is too late, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out. Ling Quan's mother burst into tears.
Du Heng was stunned by this news, Zhao Lingquan, how could she watch him go to jail. But what to do, tell Zhao Shinan? Will he go to the rescue? Thinking that he threw the Lingquan family out of the Zhao family's compound, Du Heng's heart was cold, Shi Nan would not care. Du Heng was at a loss for a while, and instructed Ling Quan's mother: "You wait for me here." With that, he ran back to the backyard.
Du Heng searched through the baggage he brought, and only found 20 oceans. Wrapping all the gold and silver hairpins in the baggage into a bag, Du Heng rushed out again, handed the burden and 20 pieces of ocean to Ling Quan's mother, and said slowly: "I only have so much here, there are some jewelry in the baggage, you can pawn it, sell it, and make it together." Saying that, when he saw the other bracelet in his hand, he gritted his teeth, took it off and gave it to Ling Quan's mother: "Add this, it must be enough." Don't sell this, send it to the pawnshop in the east of the city, give me the pawn ticket, and I'll redeem it when I go back. ”
Zhao Lingquan's mother looked at these things with tears in her eyes, and in the past few days of borrowing money, she has seen enough white eyes, but only Du Heng spared no effort to take out her body. Ling Quan's mother was about to kneel down after saying thank you, but Du Heng hurriedly helped her up: "Go quickly, don't delay any longer." If anything, come back to me. ”
Seeing the figure of Ling Quan's mother leaving, Du Heng sat down on the stone pier at the door of the dyeing workshop with a soft body, Ling Quan was arrested, and these things slowly turned around in her mind at this moment. Her heart began to tug.
