Pleasant days always go by quickly.

From Hengzhou to Xijing, it takes five or six days for the boat to travel, but in the eyes of Meibian and Yuan Ziqing, it is only a blink of an eye. It seems that nothing has been done, and the days are over.

And for Xingyun, a seasick and unlucky child, he was relieved when he was finally able to get off the boat.

At first, her symptoms were much lighter than those on the side of her eyebrows, and she thought that she would be able to adapt to it in three or two days. As a result, after crying on her eyebrows, she was fine, but she has been delaying until now, and she has not seen any improvement.

Obviously, he came out to serve the girl, but he became a girl who would take care of herself, and even had to assign someone to take care of herself, Xingyun was naturally very upset in her heart.

Besides...... I can't serve in front of me, wouldn't I let my master be alone with His Royal Highness the Prince? Although they are engaged, after all, they are still unmarried men and unmarried women, and Xingyun has a strong sense of crisis in his heart.

His Royal Highness should thank her for being seasick and unable to come to serve, otherwise there would never be any chance to get close to Meibian.

I stayed on the boat for too long, and when I got off the boat, I felt like my feet were floating. Yuan Ziqing was really not much better than her, but she still reached out to help her. The group found a nearby place to sit and rest for a long time, and then slowly eased up.

"It's faster to travel by boat than by land, but it's too much of a sin." After sitting down, Xingyun couldn't help but complain. It's really not a good experience for her.

Mei Mei didn't think so, but he still opened his mouth to comfort, "It's long overdue to think about this." If you don't go back, you can go by horse-drawn carriage by yourself, although it is bumpy, it is better than taking a boat. ”

Xingyun immediately refused, "No need, the slave is just afraid that the girl will be uncomfortable." Of course I followed the girl. ”

Shaking his head and smiling, "There are so many people around me, you don't have to worry." ”

Xingyun Xindao is that there are so many people I am worried, and while thinking about it, he glared at Yuan Ziqing without a trace. This movement didn't fill Yuan Ziqing's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seems that he still can't get the heart of this servant.

After a short break, I feel much better. The Guan family has Zhuangzi here, and it has only been less than a year since he returned to Beijing, so he is naturally still the same as before. Someone was sent to report, and after a while, the head of the village came with someone to greet him.

Zhuangzi was outside the city, and the people hired a carriage and walked for nearly an hour before they arrived at the place.

Yuan Ziqing got out of the car first, looked up, and saw a green water surrounded by a large area of fertile land by the water. You can see the Zhuangzi at the foot of the mountain from a distance, and the place is really not big, but in such a place, it is already rare.

The next carriage on the road can't go through, so you have to walk there. Fortunately, it is less than a mile away, and you can see the mountains and water. Walking beside Yuan Ziqing, he introduced, "There are small pebbles on this road, and my father has heard that he often walks on it and is healthier." simply let people pave such a road, deliberately so that the carriage could not enter, so that everyone could walk more. ”

It was originally a very interesting thing, but because things are not people, in the end, I was gloomy.

Although Yuan Ziqing has never met his future father-in-law, he can only think of the demeanor of a man from the words on his eyebrows, just from the scales and claws that he occasionally glimpses. Being able to teach such a daughter as Meibian is already amiable and respectable, but now it adds three points of admiration. It's a pity that fate is not enough, and I can't meet each other.

After walking for a while, he was almost in the Zhuangzi, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "This Zhuangzi is only cultivated to facilitate the management of the surrounding tenants, but in fact, there is not much time to live here." So it's inevitable that it's a little shabby, don't dislike it. ”

Then he explained in a low voice, "He lives in a village not far away, and it is easier to get there from here." That's what it's really about.

Yuan Ziqing said with a smile, "I don't feel wronged on my eyebrows, what can I be wronged about?" Besides, I don't think the mountain dwelling is simple, but I have long been familiar with it. ”

Remembering his mountain courtyard called "Izuxiu", he also smiled.

From beginning to end, Yuan Ziqing did not mention it to Meibian, in fact, before he left Beijing, he got the emperor's permission and allowed him to temporarily live in the Xijing Palace. Anyway, it's impossible to live with him, and it seems troublesome to live there, so I simply don't mention it.

Compared with the palace, this place is of course simple and shabby, but Yuan Ziqing himself prefers this place because of its popularity.

In the end, I didn't think it was a long journey, but now that I have settled down in Zhuangzi, I suddenly feel very tired on my eyebrows, and I have rested for two days before I can be considered to be relieved. Yuan Ziqing was not in good health, but she was more tired than her, and after resting for two more days, her face looked better.

Before going to invite the Qu divine doctor, Meiban decided to go up the mountain to sweep the grave of his parents first. This is also one of the purposes of her return, and it is not just a perfunctory excuse for Zhang.

At this time, it is already late autumn, the road into the mountain seems to be very bleak, most of the leaves are yellow and fall off, the autumn wind is solemn, and when passing through the mountains and forests, it can always leave a burst of echoes, and it seems more and more silent.

"It's a good place." Yuan Ziqing was not too quiet, but felt very comfortable. He doesn't like to be lively by nature, but this natural mountain forest is even more pleasing to him.

"My father often said that. Therefore, before her death, my mother asked them to be buried here, unwilling to return to the ancestral grave. ”

She herself didn't really like the excessive silence, as if she was the only one in the world.

This road is so familiar, she doesn't know how many times she has walked alone in her previous life, back and forth on this road, wandering, confused, and even crying bitterly...... In fact, she didn't have a good impression of it. Every time she came to visit her parents, she could realize more clearly that she was abandoned by them in this world, and clearly realized that she had become a helpless orphan.

But I still come every time. That complicated mood, I can't tell myself clearly.

However, today, Yuan Ziqing walked beside him, and the silence along the way had a peaceful taste, which people couldn't help but like.

The people who followed were far behind, and the two of them only talked occasionally, as if they were both enjoying the peace and tranquility. It wasn't until he saw the grave from a distance that he smiled again.

The people who came with them worked together to clean up the grave. Then he knelt down in front of the tombstone, "Dad, mother, my daughter has come to see you." ”

Yuan Ziqing also knelt down, "Meet my uncle and aunt." ”

He glanced at him before continuing, "Father, mother, my daughter is engaged." This is the object of my daughter's betrothed, and I came to see you. Rest assured, I'...... Will live well and live up to ...... This life. ”

She remembered her former self and cried countless times in front of her parents' graves, but at that time she never confided in her friendship with Yuan Ziqing, but she was sad. Because she knew it was impossible, she didn't want others to worry about her.

This life seems to have been stolen.

So she will never fail a day.

Yuan Ziqing also said on the side, "Please rest assured that Uncle and Aunt will take care of her eyebrows and not let her suffer the slightest grievance." ”

The two of them kowtowed in front of the grave, and Yuan Ziqing noticed that there was also a line of small characters engraved under the tombstone: Ji Yue went to meet people, and the spring breeze came to the eyebrows overnight.

He silently recited it twice, then reached out and traced it again. Meibian noticed his movements, and said, "This is a poem that my father wrote to my mother on their wedding night, and it is about the scene when they first met." This is my mother's favorite sentence, and I kept reading it before I left, and I asked people to engrave it on the tombstone. ”

"I see." Yuan Ziqing knew that the couple had a deep love for plaice, but now that he saw it, he still felt his heart shake.

Although there are many feelings in this world, life and death depend on each other, but not everyone can do it. Maybe it seems to others to be too decisive and too intense, but Yuan Ziqing only feels envious.

-- This may be because his illness has required him not to be unmoved since he was a child, and to be normal no matter what happens, but he has lost such a fireworks-like enthusiasm. It's like a glass of lukewarm boiled water, knowing that it is beneficial to yourself, but it is still tasteless.

Until he met Guan Meibian.

He also lowered his head to look at the two lines of poetry, and only said after a while, "Actually, my name comes from this poem." My mother said that my father liked to give her thrush the most after marriage, and she gave me this name because she hoped to ...... One day I will be able to meet such a person. ”

"It's just that I never understood it before, and I didn't believe that there would be such a person in this world, waiting for me to find it."

Until she met Yuan Ziqing.

Fate is the most wonderful thing, it ties two people who have nothing to do with each other, it doesn't make sense at all, but it still makes people happy and angry.

After kneeling for a long time, she stumbled when she got up on the side of her eyebrows, Yuan Ziqing hurriedly reached out to support the person, let her hold the tombstone and stand firmly, and then squatted down by herself, kneading her numb legs and sore knees little by little.

I can't tell you what it tastes like.

It should be very uncomfortable, but in this discomfort, there is an indescribable tinglingness. She looked down at Yuan Ziqing's unabastic movements, and her heart was sour and sweet.

In this world, the person who can make the proud him bow down willingly, and do these despicable things, is himself.

After a while, she whispered, "Okay, you get up." ”

Yuan Ziqing slowly stood up.

Although the expression on his face was always indifferent, he always felt that something was wrong on his eyebrows. On the way back, I turned my head to look at him several times, and finally realized that his walking posture was too stiff.

Only then did he think that how long Fang had been kneeling by himself, Yuan Ziqing had been kneeling for as long as he had been doing, and he was afraid that he would not feel much better than himself. It's really hard for him to hide it so well, if I don't know him too well, I'm afraid he will be hidden.
