Chapter 136: Precursor to the Storm
On the day of Gu Shaoyuan's wedding, from the morning when the Huai Wangfu sent a wedding sedan chair to the Muguo Mansion to pick up relatives, to the end of the wedding banquet, the whole wedding was safe and sound, and the calm was a little scary. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Huo Yunxuan still has filial piety on her body now, no matter how close she is to Mu Qingya, she can't add bad luck to Mu Qingya on days like today, not to mention that Mu Qingya married into the royal family, and the royal family is the most taboo about this, not to mention Huo Yunxuan, even Huo Chenyi didn't go to Huai Wangfu to participate in this wedding.
From the morning of Gu Shaoyuan's wedding, Huo Yunxuan got up as usual to greet Hai and Mrs. Huo, returned to the potted plants raised by Qianyunju and watered them, and took scissors to prune the branches and leaves that grew out slightly, looking impermanent.
But the feeling seemed to be even lower than the few days when he had just returned from the palace.
Gu Shaoyuan's specifications for breaking into Huo Yunxuan at night several times were met by a few books, besides, Gu Shaoyuan has always treated their girls very well, they have long thought that Gu Shaoyuan must be Huo Yunxuan not to marry this time, but they don't want to, they will marry someone else in the end, no wonder Huo Yunxuan is sad.
Huo Yunxuan didn't know what the maids were thinking, they were still drinking tea and practicing calligraphy in a dark and impermanent manner. Judging from the handwriting, it was not obvious that Huo Yunxuan was not restless at all.
It's as if she really doesn't care about that.
Actually, she really doesn't care about that. If she really cared about this, she wouldn't have made such an idea to let Mu Qingya marry Gu Shaoyuan. Even if Huo Yunxuan had a good impression of Gu Shaoyuan in her heart, she never thought of marrying him. After all, none of the people in his house are fuel-efficient lamps, and she doesn't want to jump from one fire pit to another.
"Girl......" Zhishu frowned, looked at Huo Yunxuan who had been practicing calligraphy with some worry, and stopped talking.
Huo Yunxuan didn't raise her eyelids, as if she didn't hear the voice of Zhishu, and continued to practice calligraphy quietly, if it weren't for the fact that Xiangxiang came in from the outside curtain to attract Huo Yunxuan's attention, maybe Huo Yunxuan would have to lower her head and practice calligraphy persistently on this day.
"Girl, the eldest lady begged to go to the ancestor, saying that it was a rare reunion this year, and she wanted to bring Aunt Qin back."
Huo Yunxuan just wrote to the last stroke, and when she heard the news, her pen was a little heavy, and a good pair of words were ruined.
was only stunned for a moment, Huo Yunxuan then thought about it, changed a piece of paper and continued to write: "Can the ancestor agree?" ”
Xi Xiang nodded, seeing that Huo Yunxuan's face was expressionless, worried that Huo Yunxuan would be angry and angry again, so she hurriedly explained: "In the end, Aunt Qin has been in charge of the family for so many years, seeing that the New Year is approaching, and there is a rare reunion in the house, the ancestor may be afraid that Mrs. Tai will not be busy, so he wants to take his aunt back." ”
"Yes," Zhiyu followed suit, and said with a smile: "The old ancestor is older, so he naturally wants this year to be more lively, and the girl doesn't have to worry about it, Aunt Qin has been in the Zhuangzi for more than a year, and the power in the house has long been removed by Mrs. Tai, and even if she comes back, she can't turn it over." ”
Huo Yunxuan hooked the corners of her mouth, finally raised her eyes and glanced at Xiangxiang a few times, and said expressionlessly: "She will come back if she loves to come back, originally I thought of going to my grandmother to ask for a favor and let my aunt come back for the New Year." ”
It's also time to get rid of Qin Fang, and if you don't go out, you don't know what kind of flowers you can turn out. If there is no protection from Qin Fang, wouldn't it be easy to clean up Huo Yun?
This time, Huo Yun didn't know what she had done with Qin Fang, so she had to come back in time for the New Year, it seemed that she was going to do something big.
With a sneer, he put aside the one that had already been written, and continued to write on the blank paper, repeating the same action back and forth, writing the same sentence back and forth, tirelessly.
Zhishu glanced at each other, all of them shrugged helplessly, sighed, and said: "If the girl is upset, or she speaks out or cries, it is better than holding it in her heart like this." ”
"Crying?" As if she had heard a very funny joke, Huo Yunxuan smiled and smiled, "What do I have to worry about?" ”
glanced at Zhihua with playfulness, shook his head with a smile, lowered his head and continued to practice calligraphy: "If you have nothing to do, go out, don't delay me from practicing calligraphy." ”
Zhihua glanced at each other again, their eyes exchanged with each other in the air for a while, and finally decided: "The slaves and maids don't go out, the slaves and maids are in the house to accompany the girl." ”
In the end, I'm still afraid that Huo Yunxuan won't be able to think about it.
Huo Yunxuan glanced at a few maids funny, shook her head, and continued to practice calligraphy as if they didn't exist, and when it was time for lunch, Zhishu originally thought that it would take a long time to persuade Huo Yunxuan to eat, but she didn't want to, Huo Yunxuan's expression was impermanent, and she ate no less food than on weekdays, and after lunch, she took a nap as usual, and did not show anything wrong.
But the more Huo Yunxuan is like this, the more uneasy Zhishu becomes, always worried that Huo Yunxuan will hold back some illness, even when Huo Yunxuan was taking a nap, several people followed Huo Yunxuan inch by the side, as if they were silently comforting Huo Yunxuan, men are unreliable, they will always be by her side.
Huo Yunxuan naturally felt the kindness that Zhishu wanted to express, and her heart was moved, but her face was still expressionless, and after waking up, she seemed to be a machine, and continued to practice her words at the desk, still with the same content, the same movements, and tireless repetition.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Huo Chenyi came to Qianyunju, Huo Yunxuan put the pen and looked at Huo Chenyi quietly, waiting for Huo Chenyi to speak with an impermanent face.
Looking at his sister's stubborn face, Huo Chenyi could only sigh in his heart, turned the jade wrench on his thumb and said, "Now that the ceremony is over, King Huai is drinking with the guests in the outer courtyard." ”
Huo Yunxuan nodded lightly, and could think of the appearance of the groom who was dressed in red at this moment. A trace of distress flashed in his eyes that even he hadn't noticed.
Seeing that Huo Yunxuan didn't speak, Huo Chenyi's two fingers of the wrench stopped, and his movements changed from clenching.
"The fifth master specially sent someone to report the situation, everything is fine over there, let you ...... Don't worry. ”
At this point, Huo Yunxuan's face finally had an expression, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, but her eyes were slightly sluggish and ridiculous, and she didn't know whether she was laughing at herself or laughing at anyone, she looked up and glanced at Huo Chenyi lightly, and her tone was flat: "Everything is between the eldest brother and the fifth master, and the younger sister naturally doesn't have to worry." ”
After saying that, he lowered his eyes, afraid that he would be seen as emotional, and said, "Sister Mu, everything is fine." ”
At this point, Huo Chenyi finally couldn't help it, sighed and asked, "Why are you so troubled." ”
"Sister Mu's mother-in-law is not easy to deal with, and she has always wanted to marry her to Master Wen, who has been dead for several wives, but Sister Mu's father is a fool, and now he only knows how to listen to Mrs. Mu's words, so naturally Mrs. Mu will choose those ordinary girls for Sister Mu who are not willing to marry."
"You feel sorry for her," Huo Chenyi glared at Huo Yunxuan and sighed: "Why don't you know that you feel sorry for yourself!" ”
"Anyway, my sister is protected by my eldest brother, and my mother is also really protecting my sister, no matter how bad it is, my sister and the queen mother are in pain, compared to Sister Mu, my sister is lucky."
After that, he glanced at Huo Chenyi, with a hint of self-deprecation at the corner of his mouth: "The fifth master only has one side concubine left, and our Pingyuan Marquis Mansion itself is the fifth master's faction, wouldn't I marry in vain and occupy the pit and not?" It's better to let Sister Mu marry in the past, first, Sister Mu can rest assured when she marries the fifth master's sister, and second, Sister Mu marries into the Huaiwang Mansion, which can be regarded as binding Mu Guogong for the fifth master. Now Mu Guogong has half of the military power in the northwest, which is an excellent help for the fifth master. ”
It turned out that everything was for Gu Shaoyuan's consideration.
Huo Chenyi sighed, this sister seemed to be heartless and didn't care about Gu Shaoyuan, but in fact, her heart was softer than anyone else.
"That's it, I still have something to do today, so I won't accompany you first, you ......"
Huo Chenyi looked at Huo Yunxuan and hesitated for a moment before he said again: "You pay attention to safety." ”
Huo Yunxuan only thought that Huo Chenyi was worried about herself because it was Gu Shaoyuan today, so she couldn't help but smile and smiled at Huo Chenyi: "Big brother, don't worry, my sister has a dark night and Qingning by her side." ”
Speaking, he paused, a touch of self-deprecation flashed in his eyes, and he laughed at himself: "Although Qingning betrayed her sister, she was reluctant to hurt her sister, the last time she was shocked by the horse, her sister was almost stepped on by a horse, but the guilt in Qingning's eyes was true." ”
Huo Yunxuan believes that Qing Ning must have something unavoidable to betray herself, although with Huo Yunxuan's temper, no matter what reason Qing Ning betrayed herself, betrayal is betrayal, Huo Yunxuan will not forgive, but Huo Yunxuan can be sure that unless it is the person who let Qing Ning betray her and cause herself to encounter any danger, no matter what danger she encounters, Qing Ning will save herself.
Huo Chenyi knew what Huo Yunxuan was thinking, who was Qingning, Huo Chenyi had already found out, and originally wanted to talk to Huo Yunxuan after tonight's incident passed, but listening to Huo Yunxuan's tone just now, he knew that Huo Yunxuan still believed that something happened to her, and Qingning would deal with her.
With a sigh in his heart, Huo Chenyi said, "Qingning is the fourth master's person. ”
Gu Shaoqi.
No wonder, no wonder Gu Shaoqi knew himself so well, he should have thought of it a long time ago. A hint of self-deprecation flashed in Huo Yunxuan's eyes, and she asked, "Qing Ning and the fourth master ...... him?"
"Qing Ning met the fourth master when he was young, when Qing Ning was dying, it was the fourth master who rescued him, a few days ago, Qing Ning accidentally saw the fourth master, and recognized his savior at a glance......
The latter words don't need Huo Chenyi to say, Huo Yunxuan can also imagine it, with self-deprecation in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth are even more self-deprecating, and she said: "I can't complain about her, in the end, she is the person who saved her life, which is equivalent to the existence of her parents, how can Qingning obey him." ”
Besides, this life-saving benefactor is handsome and extraordinary, and he is well-known for being a gentleman, and he is used to flirting with his sister, Qingning is probably dizzy by her.
Huo Yunxuan shook her head lightly with self-deprecation, her face unbearable, and asked, "Big brother is going to ....... What to do? ”
What to do? After tonight, someone will deal with them!
A trace of coldness flashed in Huo Chenyi's eyes, but he didn't let Huo Yunxuan see it. Huo Chenyi didn't want Huo Yunxuan to know about tonight's incident, but he was afraid that Huo Yunxuan would be worried about Gu Shaoyuan or what he would do after knowing it, so that she would be in danger. Huo Yunxuan is a female streamer, except for such a thing, Huo Yunxuan will not be implicated, even if someone wants to come and arrest Huo Yunxuan to threaten him, Huo Chenyi is not afraid, he has already planted shadows all over the Qianyun Residence, these shadows are one by one, with these people protecting Huo Yunxuan, Huo Chenyi is still very relieved.
"Don't worry about what you do with it, from now on, you just need to guard against Qingning everywhere, don't trust too much."
Huo Yunxuan nodded and said with a smile: "My sister knows." ”
Huo Chenyi nodded, patted Huo Yunxuan's shoulder and said, "Brother still has political affairs to do, you take care of yourself." ”
After that, he looked at Zhishu and said, "You guys take a good look at the girl, if anything goes wrong with the girl, you are the only one who asks." ”
"Yes."
Everyone responded in unison, Huo Chenyi nodded with satisfaction, rubbed Huo Yunxuan's head again, and then turned to leave.
After Huo Chenyi left, Huo Yunxuan always felt that Huo Chenyi was weird today, but Huo Yunxuan couldn't think of anything strange. simply stopped thinking about it and asked out loud, "Did Qing Ning bring the rice back?" ”
"Slave maid go and see." Zhiyu smiled and bowed, went to the dining room to take a look, opened the curtain and came in, and said with a smile: "Girl, Qingning is already setting the meal, the girl is going to eat." ”
Huo Yunxuan nodded, holding Zhishu's hand and was about to walk to the dining room, when she suddenly remembered Huo Chenyi's reminder. Huo Yunxuan squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "I have eaten a lot of dim sum today, maybe I have accumulated food, but I can't eat it anymore." ”
While talking, he gave a few glances to Zhihua, and Zhihua naturally understood what Huo Yunxuan meant, Huo Chenyi has always said little, so naturally he would not mention Huo Yunxuan for no reason, and they have to be careful if they mention it twice today. The rice was brought back by Qing Ning, and it was placed by Qing Ning, and it was easy to add something to it.
Zhihua hurriedly said: "It's uncomfortable to accumulate food, the girl will digest it for a while, don't eat again." ”
"You girl, how can you persuade your master not to eat." As he was talking, Qing Ning had already set up the meal and opened the curtain and came in, and happened to hear what Zhihua said, glared at Zhihua with a smile, and smiled and gave Huo Yunxuan a blessing: "Girl, go eat some, don't eat when you're hungry for a while, it's not good for your body." ”
Huo Yunxuan immediately made a very uncomfortable appearance, frowned and said, "I'm really uncomfortable, I can't eat it, I'll talk about it later." ”
"It's good for the girl to drink some porridge ......"
"No need to say more," without waiting for Qing Ning to finish speaking, Huo Yunxuan made an impatient look, frowned and said, "It's okay for me to retreat." ”
While talking, he seemed to inadvertently glance at Zhishu, Zhishu understood, and a few Zhihua stepped forward to set up Qingning and walked out, and said with a smile: "The girl is also tired, let's go boil water for the girl to bathe." (To be continued.) )
