238.A Thousand Turns II.
When I walked out of the room, it was already nightfall, and my hand was held tightly by him and I walked to the front yard.
After the corner is the dining room, all the women and children gathered around the table in front of the door, Yinzhen raised his hand and didn't say anything and pulled me in to sit down, and then everyone returned to the table according to their identities.
The pretty shadow finally became a traceable appearance, like the handkerchief, and the slender slender face standing in the door with the pink face that was white and red seemed to be able to pinch out water. A pair of misty eyes with water mist seem to be able to speak, but it seems that there are more words written in the heart, which can be seen but cannot be seen through. Her jet-black hair was still neatly tied up at the back of her head, with a small pale blue bead flower, swaying slightly with her footsteps.
Such a tender person, I'm afraid it's even smaller than Bang'er. There has never been a shortage of women in the royal family, especially those who are so beautiful and pretty, as if they are all natural.
"Slave Wu Tong'er asks for peace for the master, for Fujin, and for the masters."
Military?
Just thinking that Yinzhen had whispered in my ear, "It's just a girl." ”
Girl? This explanation is worth recalling. Is it Kangxi who came to the Lion Garden this time to reward him as a girl? Or is she still a girl...... Or to imply to me that she hasn't really become his woman yet.
Seeing that she was still standing there, looking at the handkerchief in her hand with her eyebrows lowered, I nodded and smiled, "Sit down." ”
Yinzhen glanced at me, and finally picked up the chopsticks noncommittally. I watched as my servant brought a stool and respectfully invited her to sit down, then took the dishes and chopsticks and stopped talking, concentrating on making up for my poor stomach.
A meal that no one talks about is always eaten quickly, Yinzhen put down the dishes and chopsticks, took the handkerchief I handed and wiped the corners of his mouth, and the woman and child had already left their seats and stood behind the stool.
On the way back, I instructed Meiyu to go to Li Fu to prepare a courtyard for the Wu family, and Yinzhen sent Gao Wuyong to pull me slowly to the small courtyard.
"I forgot it, forget it, you should mention it to me, you don't even have a meeting gift, it makes people laugh, and you follow the wrong master."
The force in my hand tightened suddenly, and I sizzled in pain and almost choked on the cold air.
The person who pushed the courtyard door dragged me into the threshold, pulled me against my chest with a bang, and paused for a while before whispering: "I'm used to smelling sour, but it smells good, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand the sour." ”
"Sour?" I lowered my head and pretended to smell, deliberately ignoring the smile on his face, and sighed, "You're right, I'm afraid of acid, it's not good." One day, let you know what sour is, see if you smile or not. ”
His waist, which had long been tired and unable to support it, was tightened by him, and his legs were so weak that he grabbed the placket of his clothes and collapsed in his arms, and the voice in his ears was a little hoarse, so low that I tried to catch his feelings, but I could only hear those words.
"There are some things I can't do now, I know the grievances in your heart, it's okay if you lose your temper with me, I'll accompany you. I just hope that you can laugh every day, that kind of laugh in your heart, and laugh happily without having to find a reason. Give me time, trust me, I really know what you want, know it all. If I can't do this, my heart is more bitter than sour. Smile, we still have a long way to go, maybe like these twenty-six years will pass soon, but I hope you will still be by my side like this. Maybe one day, we will suddenly get old, and I won't be afraid if you're there. ”
"I'm not afraid. Yinzhen, in fact, I don't want a lot, I also know that you still have a lot to do, I can't help you, and I know that you don't need me to do anything, I'm in this small courtyard, you come and I'll accompany you, if you don't come, I'll wait for you. I know you have me in your heart, enough is enough. ”
"Enough......" he sighed softly above my head, a long sigh that lingered in my ears for a long time.
The cool breeze was blowing in the moonlight, and the branches and leaves rustled lightly, and so did his voice. Listening to it, my heart was sore and painful, but it was different from noon.
"I only have you in my heart, you alone, but I also owe you the most. If you want it, I'll ......."
Listening to the heartbeat in my ears, I raised my hand to quickly cover his mouth, my face was still buried in my chest and listened quietly, and whispered: "I want you, I want you, I don't want anything but you." You don't have to say it, I can hear it, as long as you have me in your heart, you don't owe me anything, you owe nothing. I married you when I came here, and I didn't have a choice at that time, fate or not. Now you don't have to choose anymore, the two of us have long been tied together, it's too late for you to run, and it's impossible to blast me away if you want to. Anyway, I'm here anyway, and if you don't treat me well, I'll squander your money, bully your women, beat your children, and make your life unsafe. ”
I didn't know how to say such a thing, but when I found out that it was too late, and the moonlight snuggled up to each other, and I became a.
The palm of the hand that was holding the back of my heart stroked gently, as if it was blocking all the wind, and without those subtle sounds, I could only hear his beating heart clearly, and a good voice after a long time.
It seems that he is in a good mood today, and he doesn't even hesitate to laugh and gives me a lot.
~~~
The roses in the garden have long since failed, and there are more flowers and plants of different seasons in the half-acre garden that was expanded later. When I don't have to run around and be busy with official business, he will sit there with me, a pot of warm wine or a fragrant tea, and watch all kinds of chrysanthemums bloom in autumn, turning the fragrance of plum is better than fine snow like salt.
Such days seem to have never happened in a young age, as if people who have been polished by time are more likely to have peace and contentment.
Hongwan finally followed Xiao He out to sea, like when I left, I didn't tell the people who stayed behind where they were going. I don't know where they are going, maybe Yinzhen does.
The two men talked for a long time, and I don't know if they talked a lot, because no one entered the room, and I even wondered if they had made some kind of agreement in private without even saying a word.
None of this matters, the important thing is that my daughter is married. There was no such hype about the pompous excitement that belonged to the royal family, but the people sent her to the big ship with the banner of the exhibition. The priest brought by Yinxiang looked frightened, thinking that he was going to be taken captive by this prince's elder brother and taken somewhere to kill people.
Hongwan was wearing the pure white wedding dress that I sewed for her with Xiaoyan, standing under the pure black and red flag, smiling like a flower.
Before the ceremony, I spoke to Xiao He very formally, and he listened very attentively, and did not reply to me, but he was more solemn in front of the priest than before.
We discussed his religion at sea, and even though the Qing Dynasty could only find a Christian priest, it still made sense to him as a Lutheran. I hope he can understand that there is a girl standing next to him who sincerely wants to marry him, even if she is not a big Qing Gege but just a daughter of a cloth cloth, he can let him marry her in the most acceptable way and give her the most sincere vows. No matter what their path will become in the future, at least at this moment, my daughter will marry solemnly, and he will marry with heart.
When Xiao He and Hong Wan exchanged rings and kissed, I could feel the discomfort of the man next to me. If I am reluctant and relieved, I believe that Yinzhen's love is more complicated than mine, I try to understand but can't imagine, this kind of male psychology that belongs to my father alone, I am afraid that I will not be able to explore it in my life.
After Hongwan left, Honghui took the Su family back to the rebuilt courtyard, and the agarwood, who had reached the age of thirteen, was slim, but still had some childishness. When facing Honghui, she will smile naturally, and she will have more shyness that she has never had before, and her little face with a big palm will always look at him and slowly lower it, dyed a little red.
Yinzhen wanted to speak to Honghui several times and stopped, but finally was silent. I think he's waiting, waiting for the day when Honghui talks to him.
When the snow finally stopped after a few days, I sat on the chaise longue with the handstove in my arms and thought about the joyful parting of these days, looking at the red plums covered in snow. A few sticks leaned out of the wall, reminding me of the eternal quatrain that a red apricot came out of the wall, giggling. Mei tucked away the fur blanket that had faded from my curled legs, and poured a cup of hot tea over the palm of my hand.
She always said nothing like this, quietly stood aside and added charcoal and clothes at any time, as if the most inconspicuous one in my life was a child, but she could never leave, and always gave me the best and most appropriate care.
I was tempted to ask her why she didn't find a man to live her little life well, only to know that she would laugh and say nothing. For such a woman, I feel distressed, I always feel indebted, and there are explanations and wishes. It's just that there really aren't many choices in life here, especially women like them, plus a master like me, who is used to relying on lazy changes and has no sense of responsibility.
"Let's go back after a while, it's warm after the wind and the snow is cold, don't worry us like a child."
Seeing that Meiyu was still smiling softly, I pretended to be surprised and snorted and pinched her somewhat icy face and put it on the palm of my hand. "I'm still here as an interpreter girl, it turns out that it's been a long time, it's really close to Zhu who is red and close to ink is black, and I haven't seen much learning from the side, but this sharp-toothed unforgiving person will all know."
Mei Wei sighed helplessly, took my hand and stuffed it back into the blanket, carefully covering the corners and still resentful, "The fourth master just spoils you too much, this cold day is still for you to have fun here, I have never seen such a master who doesn't know how to cherish himself."
"You, just serve me, you don't know that most of the masters are by temperament, how suitable and how to come, no matter what others think and think. Be content, for there are not many of you like me. ”
Mei Yu lowered her head and went to add charcoal, several small stoves were burned vigorously by her, and the whole body was warm, and the snow on the ground turned into water and leaked out of a gray black, completely lost the snow white and clean.
"Go back, you can cut two more beautiful branches and send them to the second lady." Take a look at Yongjin Yongfan by the way, it's cold, if there is anything missing, go directly to Li Fu, if it's not enough, come back to me. ”
"Okay, I can't finish my heart, what else can I miss from the second master, don't you care about being Steward Li. If you take care of yourself, everyone will have a better life. ”
Carefully avoiding the snow on the ground, he pretended to look at her and urged her to fold the flowers, pushed open the courtyard door and stepped out first.
The fourth master, the second master, why doesn't it sound like a father and son, but like a brother. So habit is a terrible thing, I am used to others calling him the prince, but these girls in my yard have been calling the fourth master, I am afraid that he is also used to it.
I couldn't help laughing, and the quiet house startled myself, and I carefully smiled and lowered my steps more lightly, but I heard a low sigh that seemed to be in response.
