Chapter 50 : Tossing and Turning
At night, after a cold drizzle, the air is even colder.
Winter is approaching, Shen Hanyue shrank in the futon, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Today in the palace, there was a mess, and Shen Xinxia deserved it, but ...... She and Ah Yi are still wrong!
After a lot of sorrow lingering on her eyebrows, Shen Hanyue got up from the stepping bed, pushed open the carved wooden window, and the cool breeze blew, carrying the faint fragrance of chrysanthemums that had not yet withered in the courtyard, which made her troubles express a little!
She wanted to walk around the yard, maybe it would make her sleepiness come on sooner.
Shen Hanyue walked down the stairs lightly, afraid of waking up Qinglan and the others who were sleeping in the small room next to the stairs.
Who knows, they didn't even fall asleep, "Sister, do you think the eldest lady deserves it?" "This is Qinglan's voice.
"Before the young lady was shocked, she was unreasonable, and the lady was afraid that she was angry at that time." Harutake yawned, his voice thick with tiredness.
"No, Madame came twice at that time, once with the master, and the second time with the young ladies."
"What does the master think, how can we know? Fortunately, the young lady is witty, otherwise she would have either entered the palace or been a sister-in-law, God willing...... Go to sleep...... I'm going to do it tomorrow! ”
There was a sound of a rustling in the house, and then there was no movement.
Shen Hanyue stood outside the house, her whole figure shrouded in the dark night, looking gloomy and a little lonely.
She looked up at the clouds in the sky, black and oppressive, as gloomy as her own state of mind. She tried to pace back and forth on the gravel path, hoping that the uneasiness in her heart would dissipate soon!
She was worried about Ah Yi, Mrs. Jingyang said that although he ate obediently every day, he was unwilling to go out for a walk, and if he continued for a long time, would he close himself and become withdrawn?
Silly Ah Yi...... Silly Ye Heng, the three-year agreement, I don't know if it can be realized? Shen Hanyue felt helpless, and didn't know how to plan the future?
At this moment, Shen Jue's call came from outside the hospital, and listening to the tone, it seemed that he was not lightly drunk, "Shen Hanyue...... Shen Hanyue...... You come out for me...... You slept soundly, come out for me! ”
Qinglan Qingzhu, who had just fallen asleep, was also awakened and opened the door to see what was going on.
The moment they opened the door, they were first frightened by Shen Hanyue in the dark, and Qinglan exclaimed.
It was silent before, like a ghost, it was really weird and scary, Shen Hanyue hurriedly said: "It's me, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, go open the door first!" ”
"Yes......" Harutake came back to his senses and hurried to pull the deadbolt.
Qinglan didn't say a word, turned her head and climbed onto Qionghua Pavilion, and then draped the crimson she had taken on Shen Hanyue's body.
Shen Jue's steps were staggering, his clothes were disheveled, and he was still holding a small wine jug in his hand, and his maid Li Yin was supporting him, looking really struggling.
Liyin is Shen Jue's room, Shen Hanyue has seen it before, and looking at Liyin's appearance at this time, she is also very wolf. Obviously, Shen Jue was half dead, and she really had no choice, so she barely managed to get all the way here.
"Miss Yue, Childe is drunk, ......" Li Yin wanted to explain, and took care of the restless Shen Jue, but she was pushed out by Shen Jue only halfway through the sentence.
Shen Hanyue knew that the eldest brother was in a bad mood, the Yang family was very sick as soon as he came back, and Shen Xinxia was abandoned by Prince Su's mansion, and he didn't even have anyone to talk to.
But what's the point of making such a fuss? Feelings are the same as she planned!
Shen Hanyue frowned slightly, she didn't want to talk nonsense with him, but this was Shen Jue, how could she really ignore it? She instructed Qinglan to say, "Light the lamp!" After saying this, she turned her head and instructed Qingzhu: "Go and help, help the eldest brother in, and then go find something to sober up!" ”
Shen Jue couldn't help it, he threw Li Yin away again, this time the force was not light, and he almost hurt Li Yin to the potted plant in the courtyard.
Shen Hanyue took a deep breath, restrained the urge to beat him, and knew in her heart that it was a stupid thing to be honest with a drunk person.
Shen Jue finally stood still, half-bowed and stared at Shen Hanyue fixedly, and then looked her up and down, carefully and carefully, and then began to circle around Shen Hanyue.
Shen Hanyue couldn't stand the smell of wine on his body, so she put her index finger under her nose, "Big brother, let's go to the house and sit down first!" ”
Shen Jue burped, causing Shen Hanyue to retreat a little.
"It's good, it's good, it's good that you're okay." He slurred his words as he continued to pour wine into his mouth. Shen Hanyue stepped forward and wanted to snatch his wine jug, but saw him waving his hand to dodge, and he was still chattering, and his mouth didn't stop for a moment.
Shen Hanyue couldn't hear what he was talking about, there was only one sentence, she could be sure, "Eldest sister, she's confused, confused!" Knowing that Shen Jue was very sad, Shen Hanyue's frustration also dissipated a lot, and she called to a few people next to her: "Come and help, quickly help him in." ”
Qingzhu and Liyin hurriedly hugged Shen Jue again, for fear that he would be unstable and hurt himself.
"Go away, who will let you touch me? You all think I'm drunk? I'm not drunk, where am I? Let me show you how steady I am! As he spoke, he stumbled and stumbled into the pillar in front of the eaves.
"Get out of the way, dare to stand in the way of the master, don't want to live? The lord is not happy today, and he is not an eyesore in front of the lord. He kicked the pillar with his foot in anger, and he was so drunk that he kicked the pillar with his toe so hard that he didn't feel the slightest pain.
Shen Hanyue really couldn't help it, and when she saw that the people sleeping in the backyard were also woken up, she ordered: "Help the eldest prince into the house first, if it really doesn't work, just drag it in." ”
Shen Jue was already drunk, and his mouth continued to curse.
It took a lot of effort for everyone to successfully move him into the house.
Shen Jue, who was drunk like mud, was not honest, lying on the soft couch, grabbing the pillow and throwing it off, without resting under his feet, he stepped on all sides of the table, and kicked all the tea cups on the table on the side to the ground.
With a clang, the porcelain pieces shattered to the ground, and the whole room was wolfless.
Shen Hanyue was really angry, and said angrily: "You are not finished, go back to play drunk and crazy......" Before she finished yelling, Shen Jue had already begun to vomit.
“……”
***
Shen Jue made a fuss all night, and it wasn't until dawn that Shen Hanyue was able to sleep peacefully, and when she woke up, it was past noon.
Her eyes clicked, sitting at the head of the bed, clearly wanting to lie on the bed again, but Qinglan stayed outside, for fear that she would not be able to serve in time when she woke up. This situation made her fall asleep unsteadily, and her stomach was also hungry, so she asked Qinglan to come in and clean up.
Qinglan hung the gauze tent on the crescent hook on one wall, and reported the matter on the other wall, Shen Hanyue only then knew that in the morning, Prince Su and Princess Su sent a lot of things, and it was said that the people who came were respectful and did not let them wake up Shen Hanyue.
After Shen Hanyue finished washing, she put down the towel handkerchief, took a sip of honey water, and said with a light smile: "Prince and Princess Su are so gracious, we can't be rude, so should I go to the palace to thank you?" ”
"Miss should go in person, but ......" Qinglan wanted to say that Mrs. should lead Miss there, but in that situation yesterday, how dare Mrs. go to the palace again? So she turned around and said, "Miss should ask the master." ”
Shen Hanyue comprehended it, if you want to thank her, it is indeed necessary for her father to hand over the sticker, "Then wait for my father to come back!" In fact, she is also waiting for her father to come back, and she doesn't know how her father will clean up yesterday's mess.
Yesterday, Shen Xinxia took all the faults in the palace and wiped out the Yang family on her face, but even Prince Su said that without the Yang family's tolerance, there would be no Shen Xinxia's plans.
Regardless of whether the Yang family is involved or not, it can't be separated from the relationship anyway, so Shen Hanyue waited for her father's attitude after he came back, and also wanted to see if this person who made her want to be her father would disappoint him?
Shen Hanyue wrapped a green silk around her chest, gently brushed the ends of her hair with a horn comb, and sat in front of the dressing table and thought to herself.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps outside, someone went upstairs, and it was not Qingzhu's steps, Shen Hanyue didn't like others to enter her room, so there were only a few people who could go up to the attic.
Shen Hanyue asked Qinglan, who was making the bed behind her, "Mother He is back?" ”
Qinglan nodded: "Yes, the slave maid hasn't had time to tell the young lady yet." ”
During the Q&A between the two, Mother He was already standing outside the door: "The old slave has seen Miss." ”
"When did Mother He arrive? I haven't received any messages. The corners of Shen Hanyue's slightly upturned mouth were overflowing with joy, like a jade lotus blooming in the moonlight, fresh and moving.
"The old slave arrived at noon." Mother He looked at her, smiling sincerely, she couldn't see that she had been wronged in the palace yesterday, and her calm and calm appearance was too similar to the young lady.
"Grandmother's health is good?" Shen Hanyue raised her eyes and looked at Mother He, her temples were a little white, she was wearing a dark blue placket and a blue gong skirt underneath, which was very decent, not at all like the mother-in-law from a small squire, just looking at Mother He's temperament, she knew that her grandmother must be a generous and wise person.
"The old lady has already been well, she received the letter from the young lady, and she held it in her arms for a long time and refused to let go."
Shen Hanyue imagined her grandmother's eyebrows and eyes crooked, smiling brightly. She loves herself so much, but she hasn't been able to see her so far, Shen Hanyue felt regretful, and sighed faintly: "I should have gone back to see her earlier." ”
Mother He knew that she didn't want to stay here, and it was not a way to spend it under the same roof as the Yang family. I think that the Yang family has no mother since he was a child, and when he was in the Ningyang Hou Mansion, the father, brother and sister-in-law in the family all grew up, and their lives were also played by an aunt.
Back then, the Yang family was so tired that the old lady was angry, and it made the old lady sad for many years, did she really think that the Shen family was afraid of the Ningyang Hou Mansion?
So far, not only has Yang not been a man with his tail between his legs, but he has become a. Zi also felt that the Shen family owed her an archway! How can it be so cheap? You didn't take the initiative to please the old lady, and you still want the old lady to look at your face, begging you to be a daughter-in-law?
Shen Hanyue saw that Mother He was silent, and wondered in her heart, "Grandmother, is there something difficult about that?" ”
