Chapter 11: Mourning and Mourning (2)

Mourning has nowhere to chant (2)

It wasn't until late afternoon that Mu Qingfang woke up. She didn't want to take the medicine that Ah Liu took, so she sat stupidly, as if her sanity had not yet returned to her place. All the domestic servants in the small courtyard were transferred to the front to help, leaving Ah Liu to accompany her, and Ah Liu was helpless, so she had to change into a linen dress first, and she was just like a doll, fiddling with it at will.

Until it was dark, there was a faint sound of Taoist priests blowing and chanting in front of him, and Ah Liu urged again, "Wake up, Ah Lang and his wife have already gone, so they should go forward and cry." ”

Mu Qing turned her face, and the light of the lamp shone on her face, making her eyes even more hollow, as if she was looking straight through Ah Liu's face and looking behind. "Aliu, what do you see I'm wearing? My father and mother have brought me to my side since I was a child, given me upbringing, and have been meticulously cared for for more than ten years every day. How do you know that there is a place for me to cry ahead? ”

Ah Liu had nothing to persuade anymore, and for a while, the master and servant looked at each other without saying a word in the lamplight, and each of them was churning in five times. Ah Liu was anxious in his heart, he didn't know when Yu Li would be able to come back, and he hoped that he could take Mu Qingyuan away from this huge sadness, live safely and unharmed. Mu Qing's mind was chaotic, and for a while he recalled the bits and pieces of his past with his father and mother, and for a while he thought of the chaotic and disorderly future, and he felt a sharp pain and a panic.

The figure outside the door flickered, and there were two sounds, but Mu Qing was stunned, as if he hadn't heard it. Ah Liu got up and went out to answer the door, but there was no sound until a pair of dry and warm hands held her slightly cool hands, and she had the consciousness to look up, but it was not Yu Li, it was Du Ruhui who was wearing a beige and white clothes.

"I'll let Ah Liu go to the main courtyard to lay it for you first." He said lightly, still holding her hand in his palm, leaning over to examine her complexion.

With just this sentence, the thick ice shell that wrapped her heart burst in response, instantly turned into water, and then into tears, and rushed out of her eyes. Ignoring the manners, she withdrew her hand from his palm, looked up at him, and clung to his robe, as if grasping the driftwood that would allow her to break out of the water and breathe a breath of life-saving air in her constant drowning. Du Ruhui sighed deeply from his chest, vaguely felt some pain, and reached out to grab the back of her head, so that her face was buried in the vague pain of the sigh just now.

At this moment, Mu Qing no longer tried to control her feelings in front of Du Ruhui as usual, and she couldn't even control her own tears, pouring out like a tide. Du Ruhui stroked the back of her head and whispered: "If you feel wronged and sad, just cry, you are here with me, any wanton will be made." ”

This sudden warmth finally destroyed the ice shell in her heart, and she cried sadly, her voice was not high, but it was as sad as tearing her heart and lungs. Her hands clutched his robe, trembling as she cried. I don't know how long I cried, as if all the tears of this life had been drained, until she cried until the world was spinning, unable to support her weight, whether it was body or soul, she leaned on Du Ruhui's chest, as if she no longer existed.

Because she is young, the two brothers have never been close to her, since she was a child, only Yu Li frolicked and laughed with her in one place, he blindly cared for and cared for, obedient, Mu Qing only felt that it was the intimacy between the brother and the younger sister, and he naturally enjoyed it for ten years. Mrs. Lu has mentioned it many times, saying that Yu Li will be her reliance in the future, but she has never put her mind on him, let alone the word dependence. At this time, the firmness transmitted by Du Ruhui's palms and chest, and the soft aura diffused on her robe, made her deeply immersed in it, and she felt extremely down-to-earth and at ease, and every intrusion and worry from the outside world was cut off by him.

In the Yizhu courtyard, except for Ah Liu, everyone went to the front yard to be busy, and at this time no one came and went, and the door was ajar and not closed. Therefore, when Ah Liu came back from the front yard, when she saw this scene, thunder cleaved in her head, she opened her eyes wide and covered her mouth hard, not daring to make a little sound, not knowing whether to enter the house or not, hesitated a few times, or left the corridor of the house, and found a place to sit in the courtyard. After sitting for a while, I felt more and more inappropriate, and I couldn't sit still, so I had to go back to the door of the house, clasp my fingers and knock on the door.

Mu Qing straightened up, and when he saw that Ah Liu was back, he hurriedly stopped his gossamer sobbing. After this painful crying, he recovered seven or eight points of consciousness from the great sadness, and then realized his gaffe, and he couldn't help but blush. Du Ruhui looked calm, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so she naturally reached out for her to tuck the broken hair that hung down on her cheeks behind her ears, looked back at Ah Liu's gloomy and confused face, and asked, "Is there anything going on in the front yard?" ”

"There are some remarks related to Qi Niang, Ah Liu is about to ask Yu Alang to come over to discuss, it is getting late, if Mr. Du is still lingering here, it may be inconvenient." Ah Liu said in a deep voice and made a hasty salute.

Mu Qing knew that she was angry in her heart, and she deliberately took care of it, obviously to drive Du Ruyan away. is to treat her as a sister, and get along day and night, there are some things on the mind, if you inform her earlier, you should never hide it. Thinking of this, she stopped Ah Liu out of her voice, "You don't have to look for Senior Brother Yu, if you have anything to say, let's say it, it just so happens that Mr. Du is also there, you can consider a few points for me." ”

Ah Liu's eyes widened in disbelief, after all, he was an understanding person, and he quickly understood Mu Qing's intentions, although he was a little angry, he had to explain everything he wanted one by one. "I went to the front yard to lay on behalf of me, took a shortcut, passed through the mountain cave under the dirt slope, and just walked to the entrance of the cave, I heard a voice overhead, and stopped to listen, it was two women in the pavilion on the dirt slope to hide and chat. Because the pavilion is built above the entrance of the stone cave, the people in the pavilion can hear clearly at the entrance of the cave. ”

Ah Liu was able to speak and think clearly, and he clearly poured out all the words he heard at the entrance of the stone cave. It turned out that the words of those mothers-in-law actually pulled out an old thing, which was the reason why Dalang Erlang had been treating her coldly all along.

Gu Dalang is a good Xuan, quite specialized, and a good friend of the famous Xuan Yuan Tiangang, that Yuan Tiangang gave the post of salt official, and is going to take office, passing Yuhang, and being entertained by Dalang for a few days, and talking about it in one place in the morning and evening. At that time, Mu Qing was four years old, and one day two servant women hugged her and Erniang, playing naughtily in Dalang's mansion, and it happened that Dalang and Yuan Tiangang were walking in the courtyard. met these two little ladies by chance, and Da Lang invited him to take a closer look at the faces of the two maidens. Unexpectedly, he actually pointed to Mu Qing and said, this woman has a noble appearance, but she does not show it, and she will develop momentum in the future, but she is afraid that she is a powerful person, and the Gu family is prosperous and declining, but she is the master. I looked at Erniang for a while, and was embarrassed, and under the repeated urging of Da Lang, I just said, Erniang and her are punished by each other, and the drama of punishment must have one party die. If you want to avoid punishment, or raise them separately, or marry far away, it is better to stay away.

Yuan Tiangang's appearance has always been good, Da Lang is convinced, so he is depressed, he is the sect of Yuhang Gu, how can the Gu family change hands to a descendant of Wu Jun Gu, how can his daughter give birth to a life with her, for this reason Da Lang has always hated and beware of her. Now that his parents have passed away, he discussed with Erlang, although Daddy mentioned when he was alive that he would open a genealogy and include Mu Qing in Yu Hanggu's genealogy as his young daughter, but whether it was a testament or not, the current head of the clan was changed from Daddy to him, and he had the final say. It was agreed that after the funeral, all the domestic servants and slaves in the house would be placed in the other two houses, or sold them, and the door of the house was closed. Mu Qing is still the granddaughter of Wu Jungu, and she is not subject to the restrictions of the marriage celebration of the filial piety, so she only went to the post with Yu Li, which can be regarded as out of the cabinet.

Ah Liu finished speaking in one breath, Mu Qing was silent for a long time, took a deep breath, and said firmly: "I will never go with Senior Brother Yu." ”

"In that case, have you ever wondered what the future holds? Have you ever planned for yourself? Du Ruhui asked eagerly, waiting for her to give her an answer, hoping that she would go with him, but at the same time she didn't want her to say that. He wanted to take her with him to protect her, but he was afraid that he would not be able to save his life in the bloody rain in the future, let alone protect her. It's not his personality, I think he's always been decisive and resolute, when has he ever been so indecisive.

In the face of his urgent question, Mu Qing hesitated, raised his pale and bloodless face, and a thin pool of tears filled his eyes. Du Ruhui suddenly asked, "Would you like to go with me?" Delivered to me since then? ”

Hearing this, Mu Qing hesitated for months and fell cleanly, his heart was simple, there was only one sentence left, he was not shy or afraid, and almost thoughtlessly affirmed: "I am willing to follow." ”

"Qi Niang!" Aliu exclaimed, like thunder.

Mu Qing's heart became more and more clear, the mess of twine that was wrapped around her in the past and made her unable to move and march suddenly cracked and dispersed, the surroundings were clear, and there was only one road left in front of her, she couldn't see what was at the end of the road, but the road was clear, and she was willing to bet on her life to take a walk.
