Chapter 43: Returning from the Harvest Arouses Suspicion (3)

Suspicion is aroused

After entering his own house, Mu Qing's heart opened up steadily. got out of the carriage, as soon as he entered the second door, Du Ruhui turned around without warning and hugged her into his arms, hugged her tightly as if to rub her into his own flesh and blood, and the servants and maids in the family all did their own things with interest, and did not dare to look at her more. After a long time, until she was almost out of breath, she relaxed her arm, but she still refused to let go, and leaned down in her ear and sighed apologetically: "I still got you into danger after all." Are you afraid? ”

She nudged him away, raised her eyes and said, "Afraid, life is the most precious, who will not be afraid of death." It's just a matter of dying, just don't give your life in vain, and give your life to others in vain. ”

"I'm sorry, Mu Qing. It's that I can't live with you. Du Ruhui hung his head in frustration, kept muttering apologies, his voice was actually trembling, which made Mu Qing startled, standing in front of him at a loss, guessing whether he would regret it and send her back to Jiangdu, complaining in his heart that he was too blunt, knowing the truth that care is chaotic, but he failed to take care of his feelings. Du Ruhui didn't say anything more, and walked to the eaves of the waterfront, stood silently and looked at the lotus leaves of Tian Tian for a while, and then exhaled and said to himself: "Let me think about it again, there must be a way to protect you." After saying that, he walked into the study alone, and did not come out again that day.

Mu Qing was restless in the center of the house, she never thought that the mistress of the Tang Guogong Mansion would also have a hard time at home. She has no grudges against Mrs. Dou, and even respects her in her heart, and never thinks of being hostile to her one day. At that time, I just felt that I was being coerced by someone for no reason, young and vigorous, and I was angry, but I just wanted to poke her sore spot a little, first, to vent my anger, and secondly, to divide her god, if there is really any change, I can also earn a chance to find a chance to find a glimmer of life. Unexpectedly, her words really poked Mrs. Dou's sore spot, and she was not allowed to touch the numb scar for many years, and it was suddenly revealed, and the pain was so heartbreaking that she couldn't express it.

Once upon a time, when she was a peach and cardamom, she and her sisters secretly read those manuscripts strictly forbidden by her mother in the boudoir, and she also had countless fantasies about concubines and lifelong appointments under the moon before the flower. Her mother, the eldest princess of Xiangyang in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, has taught her what royal spirit is since she was a child, and how to face and govern her husband's concubines as a master. Love is a delusion that should never be had. Since the day she married into the Tang State Mansion, her beautiful illusions began to be shattered one by one. She personally led one concubine after another into the house, and from the bottom of her heart, she deeply expected her husband's favor, thinking that he would cherish her a little more if she was so sensible. Thinking that she was noble and gentle, Tang Guogong always respected her and never allowed other concubines to trespass. But she has gradually become a beautiful woman on the outside, but poor on the inside, coveting her husband's pity but having no face to earn. "A couple for a lifetime." Mrs. Dou was sluggish for a long time, and finally raised her head and smiled bitterly a few times, forcibly suppressed the fishy sweetness in her throat, her face remained unchanged as usual, and she was really injured inside.

It was almost dinner time, Mu Qing still didn't see Du Ruhui come out, and his heart was lost, the last rainstorm at the end of summer was coming, the sky had turned dark, and the thunder on the edge of the clouds was rumbling, dull and abnormal. She took the food box and sent it to his study, the room was dark, she put down the food box and lit the lamp for him. Under the blend of twilight and light, his face was depressed, and his spirit and self-confidence were lost. I have known him for many years, I have never seen him so depressed, Mu Qing knelt in front of him, carefully chose what to say, hesitated for a while, and didn't know what to say. He reached out to take her hand, and said slowly in a low voice, "Or I'm not thinking about it." You see, you have your livelihood in Jiangdu, if you can go and cook well, you and Yinghua can live a peaceful and happy life. ”

"Don't mention Jiangdu to me." Mu Qing thundered in his mind and the clouds outside at the same time, and a muffled thunder rolled over, she fiercely pulled out the hand that was held in his palm, and said angrily: "You send me back to Jiangdu, I can also come to you again, now you are useless even if you regret it, it is already too late." You can't be accompanied day and night, and life is in vain. A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, as if she were angry, and the lightning suddenly shone on her face, and strings of tears fell on the back of her hand.

The raindrops also fell in large numbers, crackling on the lotus leaves, and the sound of the rain fell straight to the bottom of his heart, hurting the soft place in his heart, and splashing a piece of sorrow that could not be selected. In the past, he thought that grief and resentment were done by women, and men should not be confined to the feelings of the woman's daughter's family. "If I don't send you away, won't I be taught to watch you live on the edge of a knife every day?" He sighed calmly, reaching out to wipe the tears from her cheeks.

Unexpectedly, she blocked his hand with her arm, wiped away her tears five times, swallowed a few times in a row, and said resolutely: "I will live if you can live." Do you still remember the song of the north wind when you came? On that day, I made up my mind to go with you, and I knew what I wanted to tread, no matter how bitter and difficult it was, I was willing to do it, and I had no regrets. Of course, you can protect me for a while, but how can you have time to protect me for a moment? Could it be that you have forgotten the original intention of reshaping the virtuous monarch for the common people? Since then, he has lost his glory, and only protects a woman in the inner house all day long? Only if I am self-reliant can I keep my life safe and no longer disturb your mind. You know that I never want to be a silk girl, and if you really think about me, you should help me to be an arbor. ”

She expressed her thoughts for months in one breath, don't just be a gentle and obedient housegirl, nearly 16 years of obedience, brought her only suffering and suffering, gentle and indisputable made her abandoned several times after losing her father and mother, obediently and peacefully attached to her parents, but was lightly used as an exchange for petty profits. Although the encounter was not tragic, it was enough to teach her to be vigilant and not to repeat the mistakes of the past. She has disdained to cling to it, and it is easy to cling, but if the trees for climbing are toppled down, how will she deal with herself? Therefore, she has already secretly decided to stand on her own in the world as an arbor, and if there is a wood general by her side, she can also be his life-saving support.

Du Ruhui stared at her intently, for such a long time, he almost forgot to think, he didn't even remember to breathe, the raindrops falling outside seemed to be a drum beating in his heart, and the cool wind violently pushed open the pane, wrapped in a little rain and rushed into the house, rolling up the wide silk curtain in the pane. He was awakened by the cool breeze, sat up, and examined her carefully, as if he had met her for the first time, and a warm smile spread on his lips, and he said steadily: "As you wish." ”
