Chapter 283: Sadness
After a hundred days, Chu Zhaohui no longer wore filial piety clothes, but he was still plain and plain, and simply pulled the headband, and there was no hairpin beads on it. The flowing water brocade skirt of the smoky gray embroidered white magnolia flowers in the www.biquge.info of the pen and the fun pavilion was covered with a tulle shawl of Tibetan orchid, and dragged straight to the ground, whether it was a face or a mood, it was still as heavy as twilight.
"Madam, forgive the concubine for being too talkative, if you don't have ventilation in this room, you should open the window to let in the breath. It is the summer Fangfei, this morning and evening, the lady garden strolls, moves the body, and sleeps more soundly at night", Concubine Xin persuaded her to extinguish half of the lily incense in the furnace.
No matter how good the soothing incense is, since it doesn't work, this strong smell will only hurt the body.
Although she is resentful, she has compassion for Chu Zhaohui, who has to work hard for the rest of her life like herself.
"I'm used to it, I can't feel it, it's hard for you to stay for half a day, it's time to open the window for ventilation", Chu Zhaohui said apologetically, and motioned to Mingzhu to open the window.
Concubine Xin lowered her head, and a pair of bright moons on her ears were exquisite, still at the age of youth.
Looking at Concubine Xin, who was wearing a pale blue blouse with a moon-white thread skirt and only a blue and gold hairpin, she was really not the same age as her. The corners of Chu Zhaohui's mouth flashed with a hint of bitterness: "Xin Mei, these days you have worked hard to support the middle feed in the house, it is difficult for you and Du Ruo to be of this age, but you have to work hard." If I had known this, I should have insisted in those years, and found a way out for you as soon as possible while the general was here. ”
This topic has been mentioned several times by Chu Zhaohui in the past few years. Concubine Xin knew that there was no perfunctory in these words, and they were all heart-to-heart.
As a woman, you naturally know the difficulties of women. In the past, when the general returned home, his wife also took pity on the two of them, and wanted to push the general into the room between himself and Concubine Du, which made the general angry.
Madame wants to do her duty as a housewife, and there is nothing wrong with that. The general has a deep affection for his wife, and there is no fault in his heart that he can't tolerate others. Back then, the queen mother gave herself and Concubine Du Fangfei, originally for the future plan of a pair of daughters, for fear of causing history to repeat itself, and it is not wrong to pity the hearts of parents all over the world.
However, he and Concubine Du have been guarding from a young girl to the present, and they are still like jade. What's wrong with them?
There is nothing wrong with everyone, and when they get together, there are mistakes everywhere that cannot be turned back.
If you say it's weird, you can only blame yourself for your bad fate, you can't get the favor of the general, and you give birth to a boy and a half girl to depend on each other, which is the fate of your life.
Around that time, the lady failed to match, and there was a long talk with the general, and some kind of agreement was reached between the two. After that, Mrs. secretly mentioned it to herself a few times, but would you like to find a reason and let her go out of the house?
A man like Su Rui who stands up to the sky and the earth is a good match that many women dream of, even if he refuses to look at him, how can Concubine Xin be willing to let go?
I remember that she knelt in front of her wife at that time and cried so much that she cried so much: "As a woman, you should start from the beginning, is your wife doing this to force her concubine to die?"
Bringing up the old things of the past, Chu Zhaohui added some heavy remorse: "I knew that I was tired of your sisters ending up like this, Xin Mei, I shouldn't have listened to you back then, and I should have released you out of the house early." It's only to blame that I've been indecisive all my life, and I can't plan for you anymore except for a few things outside of my body. ”
It was her own idea to go and stay back then, the same poor person to poor people, Concubine Xin did not complain about Chu Zhaohui. She smiled reluctantly: "Madame, why do you say this, the concubine enters the door of the Su family, and she will be a member of the Su family for the rest of her life." The general has no relationship with the concubine, and the concubine does not have that blessing, so how can the lady be blamed. Although the bitterness is hard, Xin Mei has nowhere to go, and would rather accompany his wife and guard the general's home for the rest of his life. ”
Almost instantly, Concubine Xin figured out the way forward, and only Chu Zhaohui could rely on it. Go out of this gate, and there will be no place to call home.
Chu Zhaohui patted her hand with satisfaction, pulled her to sit beside her, and said on the topic: "It's hard for my sister to be young and young, and she has such a temperament." Sister rest assured, although I am not a director, I will make good arrangements for my sister. ”
This is the first time, Chu Zhaohui called his sister honestly, and really wanted to plan for Concubine Xin.
Even though his son is at odds with him, he is filial and will not disobey him. has his own in one day, and there are two side concubines to eat. If there is really such a day, when his limit is approaching, he will definitely ask his son to provide for these two women who are not so good-looking, and they will not be in vain to stay in the Su family for a lifetime.
Chu Zhaohui thinks that he thinks long-term and wants to do his best to arrange these two poor people. After all, it is a picture of a bodhisattva who is compassionate and compassionate, who knows the heart of his son, snake, scorpion, tiger and wolf.
In order to hide her sadness, Concubine Xin picked up some important things in the house, and returned to Chu Zhaohui one by one. Chu Zhaohui barely listened to half of it, he couldn't bear it, and slowly waved his hand and said: "You have always handled it properly, and you and Mingzhu discussed the matter of feeding, and you don't have to reply to me one by one." ”
went back and forth to Cangnan for three months, there were people on the boat to accompany her, several girls deliberately made her happy, gentle and always by her side, Chu Zhaohui's mood was very relaxed.
Now that I have returned to the house, I look everywhere, and there are traces of my husband's life everywhere. Chu Zhaohui saw things and thought about people, and his heart was full of sadness.
The Xifu begonias in the main courtyard are hanging down layers of petals, and they are ripples when blown by the wind. The flower that I loved to see in the past was planted by my husband, which added a sad atmosphere. is also because of this, Chu Zhaohui doesn't like to open the window, just to open the window, and he will face the begonia tree he loved most in the past.
On the partition of the Duobao Pavilion in the bedroom, there was an irregular red stone, which the husband said was a meteorite, and Tete brought it back from outside the gate to open his eyes.
After changing the quilt at night, Chu Zhaohui stroked the smooth quilt, and suddenly remembered that this piece of wax-dyed silk satin with white flowers on a blue background was brought back by her husband from the Western Regions because she thought it looked good.
In this way, it is clear that the person is no longer there, and it seems that there is his shadow everywhere. I wanted to drive him out of my mind, but he just stood somewhere, smiling softly at himself from time to time.
The sadness that had been forgotten for a while during the journey spread like a tide, beating the embankment frantically, as if to break through Chu Zhaohui's fragile defense. It was so muddy, day and night alternated, and I didn't know how long it was.
Glancing at the amethy crystal armband resting on the kang table, and then at the ice that had been placed in the hall, Chu Zhaohui suddenly felt that time had passed, Chu Zhaohui opened his mouth and asked, "I have already started to prepare for Ah Wei's birthday ceremony, is this June?"
Concubine Xin raised her eyebrows and replied: "Exactly, it's already June, and it's the fifth day of the new year today." ”
The sun is shining on Taihu Lake, the grand scene of the dragon boat race is like yesterday, the son's smiling face holding a string of beads is still in front of him, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and it is already the fifth day of the sixth month.
