Chapter 252: Wait for three days

The neat table top was messed up.

Mama Xu came in early in the morning and saw me in a hurry.

This is one of the things she told me to pay attention to when she taught me etiquette.

Her brows furrowed, and she shouted out to the maid who was getting up early outside the house and watering the flowers.

It took a while for the two of them to clean up the water-soaked tabletops and wipe down the knick-knacks I had collected at the market.

The room was still filled with aroma, and it couldn't be dissipated for a while.

I smiled apologetically at them, pushed the door open and went out into the courtyard.

The flowers among the flowers were blooming, but my eyes were full of astringency.

This feeling has not subsided since last night.

Three days? I sighed and thought of Xiao Chu's pale bloodless face, which lined those glassy black eyes with a deep depth.

He was covered with a heavy quilt and incense in the corner of the house.

I was worried and irritable, mixed with distress and worried, and all gathered for a while.

Raising his hand, he couldn't help but break off a flower branch, and sat under the flower stand for a long time without getting up.

Mama Xu came out of the house, followed by the maid who had just tidied up the house with her.

She walked slowly, and I glanced at it, and noticed that her steps were much looser than the day before, presumably because she had already taken the medicine.

The smell on her body really didn't look like a skin injury, and the medicine she used also smelled of bruising oil, and the biggest possibility was that she had been kneeling for a long time, so she had this reaction.

I didn't have time to think about it, Mama Xu came over and looked at me with inquiring eyes and asked, "I spilled the spices in the morning." ”

I had already planned to deal with her question, lowered my head and took out a handkerchief that was also dyed with fragrance from my arms with a little embarrassment and said, "Mama Xu, I originally planned to use embroidered silk threads to dye spices, which is more innovative than directly using the handkerchief, and the taste is not so strong." ”

When it came to the content related to female celebrities, Mama Xu's previous face changed again.

She took the unfinished handkerchief in my hand, and a hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes, as if she was reminiscing about the past.

After a pause, she tightened the handkerchief she was holding and said, "It's a coincidence." Someone said this many years ago, but I didn't expect to hear it today. ”

I just found a random reason to prevaricate, but I didn't expect her to react like this!

I was stunned for a while, and then I whispered: "Mama Xu, the deadline for the son's return is just around the corner, you tell the kitchen to prepare in advance, if he comes to the house, he must stay for a meal." “

Mama Xu looked at me again and again, the melancholy in her eyes intensified and even carried a trace of sympathy, she was silent for a moment and whispered, "Yes." “

She walked far away. I could hear a long sigh coming from there.

When her figure is out of sight. I got up. Slowly walk back to the room.

The food in the morning was similar to that of the previous days, and when I was done, I sat there and began to think about what to say when I saw Xiao Chu tonight.

A quiet morning passed, and I stayed in my room and never went out. During the period, there were also maids who came to deliver tea, and saw me calmly and attentively picking up a pen to copy a notebook.

I finished writing one after another, and no one knew that I was hiding the ups and downs of my heart by repeating the unchanging movements.

Whenever I can't figure it out, I tell myself to be at peace with what happens, and what should come will come

Just like yesterday, I went to bed very early under the pretext that I was tired, and I slept for two or three hours until nightfall. Start again.

In the long hallway, I wrapped up a clean change of clothes and put it on the steps of the entrance, and walked in the only direction along the road in a light dress.

This time he walked faster and more urgently than last night, I wanted to see Xiao Chu earlier, and I wanted to see if his complexion was better today

The cat bent down and burrowed out of the tunnel. General Liu waited for me there as he had done yesterday, and in the moonlight, I could see his tall figure and changed into a light blue robe.

I remember that almost every time I met, this man was dressed in black.

I glanced at him with some surprise, and suddenly I saw that it felt a little fresh.

When he saw my scrutinizing gaze, he actually became a little uncomfortable and asked, "Is there something wrong with this dress?" “

I shook my head and smiled, "No, it's just the first time I've seen you dressed like this, and I think it's strange." "I don't want to hide it from you, Miss Ye, take advantage of the fact that I will say a few words to you now, and when you get to the room, if he talks about it, you don't want to show your flaws."

I shook my head and said, "If I want to say it, why would I have waited until now, I would have said it last night." "Don't worry," I looked up at him and whispered, "you tell me what to do." ”

General Liu nodded and said, "He only gave me three days to prepare, and today he prescribed a prescription with strong medicine, and urged me to prepare it early in the morning to decoction for him to take." ”

My face turned pale, and I realized what he was saying, what he was saying, and my mind was blank for a moment, and I couldn't think of how to respond.

I bit my lip and whispered, "What kind of strong medicine?" What are the medicinal properties? ”

"Naturally, he suppressed the injury, he used it to ensure that he could move freely in a short time, he gave me three days, and in three days we will be out of the city."

I took a deep breath and plucked up the same courage as I did last night and said to him, "Can you take me out of the city by a means?" ”

"I want to stay with him and take care of him, you know, he brought me here from Daye."

"I don't know what you're planning, but I, I just want to stay with him, that's all."

When I approached the house, I could smell the smell of incense as soon as I entered the door.

I walked quickly to the chag, Xiao Chu leaned there, heard the sound, turned his head to look at me and smiled and beckoned.

His complexion is indeed much stronger than yesterday, and it looks like two people.

The face and lips are more ruddy, and the whole person is no longer so pale and weak.

I looked at him with four eyes, just as I noticed General Liu changing his clothes earlier, Xiao Chu also looked at my clothes with some surprise, I was wearing extremely light, giving up the gorgeous long skirts that were beautiful but cumbersome to move on.

"Go down the tunnel, you can go faster." I blushed at the sight of his eyes.

"Xiao Chu, when I came yesterday, I forgot to give it to you."

I pulled out the handkerchief from my bosom that I had reworked and re-embroidered. Quietly handed it to him.

Without saying a word, he took it in his hand and looked at it for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's very similar to my mother's embroidery, she was the same as you when she first learned." ”

I thought the first half of the sentence was complimenting me, but I didn't expect the second half of the sentence to be out of the way it tasted.

However, he was speaking of beginners, and his tone looked like he had seen it.

Xiao Chuming's beautiful eyes glanced at me, seeing my embarrassment, he smiled lightly: "My mother will never do this until I am six." I didn't start learning until I was seven years old. ”

I looked at him in amazement. Daye is also good. It doesn't matter if it's a day, female celebrity has almost become a necessary condition for considering a girl, and it is because of this that I don't have any slander against Mama Xu for urging me to study.

But the standards in both places are clear. When did he become so tolerant, but for all the women who were going to marry, which one did not double down on the practice and embroider a lot of things?

Waiting for Xiao Chu to elaborate, he changed the topic and stared at me for a few seconds before he whispered: "I was going to ask you last night, but three days later, I will leave Yingtian." I don't know when I'll be able to come back. ”

"Will you come with me, if you want?"

The clouds suddenly cleared in front of me, and just now I was still struggling with how to persuade General Liu to let him arrange for me to follow Xiao Chu's side, he agreed, but I was worried that Xiao Chu would refuse.

He didn't agree to take me with him. He could only stay in the courtyard of the house, wasting time waiting day by day.

So far, I've never really figured out what I'm trying to know, who exactly he is, what he's planning? How was he injured?

However, one question after another is solved at this moment with this question.

I looked up at him with a smile and said, "Of course Ken, where are you going?" ”

Counting out yesterday and today, in just two days, I will leave Yingtian.

As I walked back to the other side of the tunnel, my steps were faster than when I came.

When I went, I was anxious, but when I returned, I knew the determination and expectation of the goal.

The passage was the one I had placed, and I changed into the dress inside before I came out of the tunnel.

This night, because of a confirmed agreement, I had a rare good night's sleep.

In the past few days, I have slept the most soundly and peacefully.

When I woke up in the morning, Mama Xu came to comb my hair as usual, and the maid also sent breakfast.

I've been walking on the gravel path in the garden, and I've been living in Yingtian's house for so many days, and in fact I haven't walked around it properly.

Most of my usual activities are in the house where I live and the small garden in front of it.

Since there are still two days to leave, not going to go is a disappointment to such a new foothold.

Walking out of the inner courtyard, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and the few guards who could still be seen when he went out a few days ago were gone, only the two subordinates guarding the door remained.

My heart tightened, and I turned to look at Mama Xu and said, "Is there something wrong with my son's family?" Mobilized for reinforcements? ”

Mama Xu said lightly: "This time, it was several city gates that wanted to increase the manpower and transferred them away. ”

Thinking of the scene when I went to Makuyama a few days ago, my eyes moved and said, "I wanted to ask that day, what happened?" ”

"How can you go to a group of people in the morning and come back several times more in the evening." "I didn't listen to the maids who came back from the street and told me about the changes in the city."

"It's even more exaggerated now, even the manpower of the house has been transferred, Mama Xu?"

She took a deep breath and finally said with difficulty: "Miss Ye, I don't want to hide it from you anymore, something is indeed wrong, and it has a lot to do with Childe." “

It's finally here!

I turned my head to look at her, with a look of surprise, and my eyes waited for a moment for her to tell her what was going on.
