Chapter 24: Consolation

Because of the end of the year, according to the usual practice, the curfew in the capital has also been postponed, but there are more soldiers patrolling. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Biyu cautiously walked out of the Ye Mansion and walked quickly towards the south of the city. Along the way, the red lights are shining everywhere, which is quite festive.

Jasper looked up at the plaque in front of her, which read "Yuelai Inn". I was very disdainful in my heart, and said that I was a high-ranking monk, but I acted so greedily for enjoyment.

After asking the shopkeeper, I went down the stairs to the No. 3 room. raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, only to hear the sound of cups colliding inside, as well as the sound of punching and laughing, and a few words of meat from time to time. Listening to Jasper's face blushed.

After adjusting his mind slightly, he raised his hand and knocked on the door, and the door was opened by a thin monk with a delicate face, full of wine, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Is your master here? Let's just say that the third lady of the Ye Mansion has come to fulfill her promise. Jasper covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief in disgust.

Soon after the little monk replied, he saw that the dignified monk from before looked like he was the most well-fed, with a thin stick in his mouth, looking up and down Jasper with fascination in his eyes and saying, "Did you bring anything?"

Biyu took out a stack of silver tickets from her personal purse, stuffed them into the old monk's hand, and said, "This is the three thousand taels of silver tickets that the third lady promised you." ”

Biyu watched the old monk pat back and forth with the silver ticket in his hand. Without saying a word, he fled and left. A group of people in the room burst into laughter and said obscenities.

After listening to Jasper's reply, Mo Shi was in a good mood and took care of his shallot-like nails overnight. The body, which was still a little weak, recovered as if it had been beaten with chicken blood. Sure enough, people are in good spirits at happy events.

Mo Shi looked at himself in the mirror, his white and red skin, and his eyes were like silk. Not at all like a woman in her 30s. It's actually a cardamom young lady.

A few families rejoice and a few are sad, and if there are happy, there will naturally be sorrowful.

"Slut, I can't imagine that this confinement will be released like this. Ruan's palm slammed on the table, and his silver teeth gurgled.

"Mother, you are the head of the Ye Mansion. None of those individuals shall live under you. This time they were lucky, but not necessarily in the future. Ye Zixi stepped forward and gently slapped Ruan's shoulder, and comforted Wen Yan.

"Come to Japan, I'll take a look, with the huge Ye Mansion, who has the final say!" Ruan Shi played with the jade bracelet in his hand, and his words were inexplicably confident.

There is a moon in the sky, and the stars are dotted on the ink-splashed night. Tomorrow is going to be a good day!

Ye Wan held her cheeks and looked at the thick night outside the house, in a daze. In a few days, it will be the festival of the stove. Then it's the New Year.

It was the first New Year after the mother was gone.

When her mother was there, she always felt that no matter where she lived, no matter what she ate, no matter whether she had new clothes or not, Ye Juan felt a warm sense of belonging. If the mother is there, the family is there.

Thinking about it, subconsciously there were tears running down his cheeks and to his arms, dripping down one by one.

Thousands of words are blocked in my heart, and no one is to tell, so I feel depressed and panicked. I thought of the master of Huguo Temple again. Although he didn't contact in advance, he still couldn't stop Ye Huang from wanting to go to the other courtyard to have a look, even if the master was not there. It's also good to look at the books that the master has read and the bed he has slept in.

The other courtyard, that is the home in Ye Juan's heart at the moment!

After explaining to Fu'an, he sneaked out of the north gate. Ye Juan took a deep breath and thought with a smile that sure enough, the air outside was fresher.

Although the time is approaching, the main streets of the capital are indeed full of lights, and there is still an endless stream of people coming and going. There was a happy smile on everyone's face.

Ye Juan looked at this bustling nightlife, this variety of scenes, and her mood was inexplicably better. Even the footsteps are a little cheerful.

Stop and look around along the way. In the past, there was always endless work, although he occasionally came out to hang out, but he was shy in his pocket, Ye Juan still remembered that when he looked at a string of red rock sugar gourds, he couldn't afford them, so he licked his lips and looked at them blankly for a long time.

I thought that one day I would have money, so I would buy a lot of sugar gourds and eat them in the morning, at noon, and at night. It's just that although I have enough money now, I don't want to eat the red rock sugar gourd.

Time has changed, and what you can't ask for is now readily available, but it is no longer the same as before.

Wandering around like this, when he arrived at the other courtyard, it was still Uncle Huan who opened the door, and when he saw Ye Juan, his face was full of surprise, and then he stroked the goat's whiskers and said: "You master and apprentice are really smart." ”

Hearing this, Ye Wan asked in a stunned voice, "Master is also there?" There was joy in his tone. Originally, I just wanted to come and see it, but I didn't want Master to be there. It's really unintentional.

Ye Huang briskly lifted the corner of her skirt and trotted towards the study in the other courtyard. Ye Wan knew that although it was late at night, the master must be practicing and chanting.

"Master, master, Wan'er is here. At this time, Ye Juan pushed the door briskly like a little girl.

Chunyou, who was sitting on the futon, stopped the rotating rosary in his hand, slowly opened his eyes and looked at the smiling girl in front of him, and said dotingly: "Shouting in the middle of the night, what kind of system." I don't know how to knock when I enter the door. Although the words are reproaches, the smile in the eyes cannot be hidden.

"Master...... Wan'er is not the same for everyone. Ye Wan stuck out his tongue and argued.

"Why did you come here so late? At the end of the year, there was chaos in the capital, and a girl's family had to pay attention to safety. Chunyou looked at Ye Wan who was grimacing and said.

"Master, I think you are even more verbose than my mother. Before he finished speaking, Ye Juan's eyes lowered his eyes. The atmosphere fell silent for a while.

"I think of your mother again. Chunyou's words are not a question, but an affirmative question.

"Yes. When I came over at night, looking at this prosperous red dust, I felt more and more worthless for my mother. Mother has never had the opportunity to enjoy the prosperity of this world, but she ......" Ye Juan couldn't go on talking about it.

Chunyou stepped forward, gently took Ye Juan's head to his chest, gently stroked Ye Juan's hair, and lowered his head to smell the faint fragrance on Ye Juan's hair. It seems to be lingering between the mouth and nose.

"It is said that at the beginning of human beings, nature is good. Master, do you say that's really the case?" Ye Juan thought that her mother was probably the kindest person in the world, but she was humiliated and died unjustly.

"The most complicated thing in the world is the human heart. The master didn't figure it out either. Chunyou looked at the void and muttered with a hollow look in his eyes.

Is it inherently good or evil? How is it that the answers given by the sages are so different from what life has given us?

In the cold night, two lonely hearts are so close, warming each other and supporting each other.
