Chapter 20: Sleepless Nights
Out of Xixiang Village, the carriage slowly walked towards the city. The carriage, without any signs, left the city for a while and then drove into the city gates. The soldiers defending the city were not surprised, and they didn't even stop them, knowing that the lord sitting in the car was something they couldn't afford to provoke, so they accepted the thought of rubbing oil on other people's bodies and let them go generously.
Ying Su was always frowning in the carriage, and on the desk in front of the seat were two not-so-beautiful lotus lanterns, which were made by Yue Xi himself, and were stained with her blood.
Since that time, after saying the post-sealing ceremony, Yingsu has always had a faint unhappiness in his heart.
He never understood why Yue Xi couldn't be interested in such a glorious thing!
It should be that the lady is not interested in the matter after the closure, so that Ying Su has no enthusiasm.
I wanted to give her a dignified name before the child was born, and let her become the mother of the country and his queen of the Zhao, but her fluttering words made Ying Su feel on fire in her heart, but she felt that the woman didn't know what to do!
"Let's put it first......" raised his hand to pick up a lotus lamp, his slender fingers as jade stroked the blood-stained petals, Ying Su's heart hurt very much: "If you have such a big temper, you can only make both of us ...... painful"
Yue Xi stayed in the county government of Cixian County for one night, and handed over the household of Liuhualou to Ye Miancheng, and asked him to help him get rid of his lowly status.
"Anything else?" Ye Miancheng took a closer look at the household of Liuhualou, and said with a sneer: "While I am in office, I might as well take these messy characters by my side, and when my term expires next year, I still have to hand in my resignation." ”
"It's a big guy, but he can't speak!" Ye Qiu sat down with two pu fans, handed one to Ye Miancheng first, and then gently fanned Yue Xi: "We are in charge of a little bit of the ability to turn stone into gold, and the person she wants to keep must be useful." You can help with it, don't you have it! ”
"It's not hot." The pu fan in Ye Qiu's hand was 'snoring' beside him, and Yue Xi actually felt cold.
"Cixian County is on high ground, although living here is not disturbed by the summer heat, but we have mosquitoes here are powerful, and there are people in Linxian who have lost their lives after being bitten by mosquitoes, and I am a fan of mosquitoes for the house!" Ye Qiu's voice was soft when he spoke, and it was comfortable to listen to.
"Wow!" Yue Xi was taken aback by this, stretched out his hand to take the fan and said to Ye Qiu: "You also fan the fan, we people can't die in the wind and waves, don't let the little mosquito bite you to death in the end......"
"I'll take another fan." Ye Qiu got up and entered the study.
"I lied to that little fool master, why did you say you believed it?" Ye Miancheng watched Ye Qiu enter the study and then approached Yue Xi, 'hehe' smiled and whispered: "My master is afraid that I will be bitten to death by mosquitoes, so he will fan me when I enter the summer!" ”
"......" Yue Xi stared at a big face that suddenly leaned over, and wanted to slap it!
"What a lack of morality!" Yue Xi raised his hand and threw the fan over: "Ye Qiu really hurt a white-eyed wolf!" ”
"Hey, in charge, let's talk about it......" Ye Miancheng dodged, stretched out his hand and copied the fan in his hand, he still approached Yue Xi and whispered: "This term of office is up, I really hand in my resignation!" You'll have to take me then! ”
"Love is not delivered!" Yue Xi sat sideways, and said in the direction of the kitchen: "You beg your master to go, Ye Qiu is willing to support you, you will have something to eat, if he is unwilling, then you can learn the ability to ask for food with Lao Chu......"
"Whew...... This hasn't been done yet, why do you just say that......" Ye Miancheng raised the household in his hand.
"I can't do it." Yue Xi also smiled, and said to Ye Qiu, who came out, "You have so many fans at home...... Actually......"
"Yes! I didn't say I wouldn't do it......" Ye Miancheng saw that Yue Xi was going to expose him, so he hurriedly said soft words.
Now Yue Xi was happy: "I really didn't expect it, you are quite afraid of Ye Qiu." ”
"Can you not be afraid?" Ye Miancheng sighed and said: "He lives in the shop all his life, and he can't stand it if he doesn't talk to me for ten days or eight days!" ”
As long as Ye Qiu ignores Ye Zhixian for ten days and eight days, he will be afraid......
Yue Xi lost his mind for a while: Ye Miancheng, that wilting bandit, where would he be afraid of the honest Ye Qiu, but he has already put people in his heart, and naturally he can't let go of them no matter what. But what about me and Yingsu? How many days have you not seen each other? What is this......
"Look at you!" Ye Qiu came out of the study and saw Yue Xi sitting in a daze, and couldn't help but reach out and push Ye Miancheng: "Don't talk to the master, she is pregnant with a child now, she can only listen to good words, and you are not allowed to say a word about those words that block her!" ”
"I didn't say anything...... Ye Miancheng touched his head and shouted injustice: "I just told the boss that I was afraid of you, and I can't say this?" ”
"You're scared of a fart!" Ye Qiu's face flushed: "Full of nonsense, if you don't have a few words of truth, you will coax me!" ”
"I'm thinking about something else." Realizing his gaffe, Yue Xi immediately sat up straight.
People close to her knew who she was and who she was entangled with, and she couldn't let them gossip about Yingsu.
"Du Sanniang's parents arranged it well?" She looked at Ye Miancheng and asked.
"The old man, it is a blessing to be free from illness and disaster." Ye Miancheng put the fan in his hand on the table, Ye Qiu immediately approached him, and the two of them fanned a fan.
"Every time someone sends them money and food, those two are scolded, and after scolding, they will still ask where the fat sister is, alas!" Du Sanniang's parents have always guessed that their daughter eloped with someone, so they scolded Du Sanniang behind her back, thinking that she had lost the face of the Du family. But every time he received the silver sent by Ye Miancheng, the second old man was happy in his heart, and he could send the silver home, which showed that his daughter's life was not bad......
Yue Xi nodded: "It's also embarrassing for you." ”
"What is this?" Ye Miancheng waved his hand with a big grin: "Aren't all those silver given by you?" I'm just looking for someone to give me money. ”
People just go and send money. ”
After finishing speaking, Ye Miancheng got up and went to the place where the county government was working, and after a short time, he walked back quickly, and handed a new household to Yue Xi: "The master, you are inconvenient now, in the future, just send someone over to inform you of such a thing, don't run away!" ”
"Thank you!" Yue Xi took the household and looked at it carefully, and when she saw that the big seal stamped on it had not dried thoroughly, she blew it again, and then she whispered: "There are some things, you really can't let others do it, such as this ......" She raised the household in her hand: "The fewer people who know, the better." ”
"Yes." Ye Miancheng nodded heavily.
came and went in a hurry, and as soon as Yue Xi's affairs in Cixian were completed, he did not delay, and went back early the next morning.
After coming and going, she remembered the difficult days in the palace again, but felt that the things she encountered now were nothing.
When it was dark, the carriage was not far from the emperor, and Yue Xi went to the Taiping Bureau first, and gave the new household to the Xixiang Village after Liu Hualou returned.
After two days of sitting in the carriage, Rao is Yuexi has not lost exercise, her legs are still swollen, and her feet are so swollen that she can't wear shoes!
"Let's talk to Madame." Yun Hua and Xia Ran waited for her to take a shower and change her clothes, but they were still not at ease, and asked as they tried to explore.
"It's a trifle." The shoes couldn't be worn, so Yue Xi had to walk to the table, handed the cloth towel to Xia Ran, and asked her to help her dry her hair: "Don't tell my mother!" I'm afraid to drink medicine. ”
"But if you don't say it, Madame will definitely blame the two of us for not paying attention to serving our masters." Kasumi replied quietly.
"It's all on me." Yue Xi leaned back in the chair, and the whole person relaxed, and it was a great favor to help Liu Hualou get rid of his cheap status, and Yue Xi was very happy in his heart.
"Huh? What about the lotus lantern I made? Looking at the table, Yue Xi suddenly asked, "The day before yesterday, when I left, I still put it on the table, did you two put it away?" ”
"It was His Majesty who took it." After Yun Hua finished speaking, he quickly glanced at Yue Xi.
"Your Majesty is back?" Yue Xi raised his head and didn't come back to his senses for a while: "Why did he come here just when I went out...... It's really ......."
"yes!" Yun Hua stared at Yue Xi's swollen and shiny feet, and her heart hurt uncomfortably: "Master, you wait for your majesty at home every day, but he doesn't come, and your majesty will come as soon as you go out, isn't it really a heart!" ”
"Cloud Painting." Yue Xi got up and walked to the door and closed the door, then took Yunhua's hand and said in a deep voice: "Although you and I are the master and servant, I treat both of you as sisters." ”
"Well, the master is good to us, and I and Xia Ran know it in our hearts!" Yun Hua lowered his head, his voice choked.
"Now it's just the three of us in the house, and I have something to say about you." Yue Xi pulled Yun Hua to sit at the table, and glanced at Xia Ran again: "You sit too." ”
"I'm bad-tempered, I'm used to being wanton, and sometimes I still say things that I know I'm saying aren't appealing. His Majesty may not care about me for a while, but after a long time, I don't know what will happen. ”
"You two need to remember: he is the emperor, an emperor who can determine life and death with a single sentence! No matter what he does to me, just let me face it myself, and you must abide by your duty and don't say a word of transgression! It's important to remember! ”
"We got it." Yun Hua wiped away his tears and responded with Xia Ran.
"You two, I've been with me for the longest time, can I still not know your thoughts?" Yue Xi patted the hand of Yun Hua, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty is very good to me, I want too much......"
This night, Ying Su did not come, and Yue Xi slept very late.
When the sky was about to dawn, Yue Xi, who had been tossing and turning in bed all night, still couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and put on her clothes and opened the door, she wanted to go out to breathe, but she unexpectedly saw a thin figure by the stone table in the courtyard: "Mother?!" How do you sit outside? ”
Yue Xi hurriedly walked out and stood beside Mrs. Lou.
"My mother can't sleep, and I'm afraid of making noise with you, so I'll sit in your yard." Mrs. Lou's face was not good-looking, she still took Yue Xi's hand and said, "Sit down, my mother will give you the number and pulse, and you won't sleep all night." ”
"Oh, what a vein!" Yue Xi pulled out his hand, held Mrs. Lou's cold palm with his backhand and walked out of the courtyard: "I'll send you back to sleep!" ”
