Chapter Eighty-Six: A Visitor from Far Away

When she saw that long-lost face again, Shuyun smiled, smiling so lightly, but tears rolled down her cheeks one by one.

The person who came looked at Shuyun's bulging belly in a daze, with a flash of loss in his eyes, so fast that people couldn't notice it, and then he smiled and opened his arms, walked quickly to Shuyun, and hugged Shuyun tightly in his arms, unwilling to let go for a long time. The autumn sun shone on the two of them, which warmed people's hearts. A breeze blew through, seemingly bringing a hint of sweetness in the air.

Shuyun doesn't care about what kind of thoughts Qingsi and Ruxue around her will have now, she just wants to enjoy the long-lost and reassuring taste of the visitor.

After a long time, Shuyun wiped her tears and said with a smile, "Tom, I really miss you." "Yes, it's Tom who has been absent for a long time. This is a man who handed over Shuyun's knowledge, took care of Shuyun, doted on Shuyun, and accompanied Shuyun through nearly 20 long years from childhood to adolescence, and was also a teacher and friend.

Tom, who is already over the years and has a faint fine line at the corner of his eyes, has become more mature, stable, and more flavorful. A black robe was worn on his body, which set him off with such elegance and charm.

But the way he spoke to Shuyun remained the same, he was still so childish, and his mouth was "Oh, thank God, after four years, I finally saw you again." Yunyun baby, Tom misses you too. ”

Shuyun smiled, smiling very brightly. Then he said, "Tom, let's go, go into the house and get some rest." Later, I'll cook it for you. As he spoke, he pulled Tom up.

"Wait, Yunyun." Tom finished. He curled up a finger and put it to his lips. Whistled very loudly. In a moment. A dark brown sweaty horse with shiny fur and a very tall steed came over. It was followed by a donkey-sized man. Mighty German Shepherd. When they got closer, they kept rubbing around Tom and Shuyun, wagging their tails.

Tom smiled and said, "Yunyun, guess who they are?" ”

Shuyun rolled her eyes and habitually yelled at Tom, "Who else could it be, of course it's foreigners and Pipsqueak, do I look that idiot?" Do you even have to guess this? In front of Tom, he didn't know what Lu Dao was doing, and Shuyun's IQ and age plummeted. Speak in a childlike tone.

Tom's reaction was still the same, grabbing his brown curls, cracking his mouth wide and smirking silly.

Looking at Tom like this, Shuyun really can't describe how she feels now, in addition to happiness, joy, and a trace of sourness, which reveals a touch of warmth and sweetness.

But when both came to their senses. But I found that the warm and tacit and harmonious feeling when we got along in the past seemed to come back in an instant, as if we had never been separated for so long, and many of the past events that had happened flashed in front of me one by one - three-year-old Shuyun sat there with two pigtails and studied mathematics seriously with Tom, when Tom was sent back to the Holy See. Anxiously waiting for Shuyun's arrival in the post station. On his way through Europe, Tom shelters the clouds. Before parting, Tom told Shuyun earnestly. When Shuyun was sent away, Tom stood in the sunlight with a lonely smile, and these past events and images seemed to be like yesterday. It seems that true affection and friendship will not be diluted by time.

Regardless of the green silk and snow that want to talk and stop. So-yun went straight into the house with Tom. After sitting down, Tom stared at Shuyun's stomach and sighed, "Time flies so fast." Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, my Yunyun baby will also become a mother! He. Is he okay with you? ”

Shuyun knew who the 'he' that Tom was talking about, so she smiled and nodded, "It's good." ”

"That's good, that's good" and then Tom was silent for a moment, then added, "Isn't he there?" I'd love to meet this lucky guy. ”

Shuyun paused for a moment and said, "I'll see." He was the Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and he didn't live here permanently, but he would come over every month to see him. ”

After Shuyun finished speaking, Tom's blue eyes widened, and he was stunned for a long time before he said quietly, "The emperor should have many wives." You are so eager for peace and freedom, are you really happy with him? ”

Shuyun smiled lightly, "Everyone has their own destiny, and the definition of happiness is not the same. But I'll make myself happy. ”

So-yun didn't want to dwell on this topic for too long. So without waiting for Tom to ask again, he said, "Tom, aren't you a cardinal archbishop now?" The Holy See should have a lot of things to deal with for you, why did you come to the Qing Kingdom again? ”

Tom waved his hand and said with some distraction, "Don't mention it, don't you know how boring the days of the Holy See are?" I had long wanted to get out of that lifeless place and go for a walk. Later, I heard that there was a war in the Qing Kingdom, and although I could often receive letters from you, I was still a little uneasy, and the Qing government's decree on the expulsion of missionaries was also canceled, so I came here. I came on Martin's ship, and he asked me to greet you and bring you a bag of plant seeds. ”

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and then Qingsi's voice came from outside the door, "Niangniang, the slave maid cut some watermelon, I want to invite the guests to taste it, can I come in?" ”

Shuyun smiled and said a little coldly, "Come in"

Qingsi opened the door, walked over with some caution, and put the tray on the coffee table. Then he secretly glanced at Shuyun and found that Shuyun was smiling, but that smile seemed a little cold, and after hesitating for a while, Qingsi walked backwards and walked out.

Then Shuyun began to talk to Tom, talking about the experiences, circumstances and feelings of the two of them after they were separated over the years. It wasn't until the sun went down that the two ended their conversation unsatisfied.

Shuyun didn't know what kind of thoughts and reactions Kangxi would have when he learned that Tom had arrived. But Tom had to stay on Zhuangzi. On the one hand, Sook-yun doesn't want to be separated from Tom again. On the other hand, So-yun also needs Tom's help with a lot of things. After the last, Shuyun hesitated a little, but quickly turned firm and said, "Tom, stay, don't go any more." ”

Tom was stunned for a moment. Then he smiled happily and said, "Of course." Then he said, "Oh, thank God." The homeless Tom not only found Yunyun Baby, but also lived with her again. It was just perfect. ”

Shuyun smiled, but she felt a little sad when she didn't know what Lu Dao was doing.

In fact, Tom is a very intelligent person, and his mind and emotions are very delicate. He always showed a happy look to the outside, at least to Shuyun. It seems cynical, but in fact it is tenacious. This is Tom in Shuyun's eyes

At dinner, Shuyun called Chen Ce. made a solemn introduction to the two. After the two men exchanged pleasantries, there was Shuyun as a medium, and after a few glasses of wine, they began to hook their shoulders and backs. Soon there was a taste of sympathy.

The dinner was very sumptuous, Longjing shrimp, Dongpo meat, and braised lion's head were served like flowing water, all of which were Tom's favorite dishes, hand-picked by Shuyun, and came from Mama He's craftsmanship. However, Shuyun broke her promise and couldn't cook herself because she was too late to talk to Tom.

The three of them ate until the middle of the month. Shuyun thought and thought. Although I was very reluctant in my heart. But in the end, Tom was arranged to live temporarily in Chen Ce's courtyard.

Early the next morning, Shuyun called Qian Afu, who had recovered, and asked him to invite craftsmen to come, and Shuyun was going to build a Western-style house for Tom next to his yard. As for the drawings, you don't have to bother others. Let Tom paint it himself.

Tom went out after breakfast, and he had to go to the Ministry of Rites to report to him, and he also had to go to the Xuanwumen Catholic Church to meet Nan Huairen and other missionaries in Beijing.

For a brown-haired and blue-eyed foreigner who suddenly appeared next to Shuyun. Everyone was amazed, but no one made any rude moves. I didn't just go to the inquiry. is still very well-behaved, which makes Shuyun feel very gratified. It seems that his efforts have not been in vain. Not to mention how much everyone has changed, at least they have become very decent in terms of dealing with people. If this had been put in the past, when I saw a foreigner, not to mention those people in the palace. The dealer and the children must have come to watch.

Then Shuyun recruited Xiao Guizi and asked him to enter the palace to send a message to Kangxi, hoping that Kangxi could come in the near future.

Shuyun thought about it for a while, and reported Tom's arrival to Kangxi as soon as possible. Shuyun didn't want anyone to make a fuss about it, and she didn't want to arouse Lao Kang's suspicions. Yesterday afternoon, Shuyun and Tom stayed alone and talked for a long time, and maybe now the news has gone out. Shuyun doesn't want to be passive.

And even if Shuyun doesn't tell Lao Kang, Lao Kang can quickly know about it, rather than letting him know from others, it is better to explain it to him as soon as possible. Who knows what those people will say to him? There are many monks with crooked mouths. Besides, now there is a sea of people waiting to see Shuyun's jokes, although no one has shown their heads yet, that's because Shuyun has always been very careful in doing things, there is no big handle leakage, plus there is Lao Kang's protection. But Shuyun also knows very well in her heart that her existence has violated the interests of some people, they have a keen sense of smell, and now they are secretly peeping on the sidelines, and once they have the opportunity, they will pounce on the wolf without hesitation. A fatal blow to Shuyun.

So Shuyun's current life seems to be calm and waveless, but in fact, she is already standing on the cusp of the storm, it is very dangerous, and she doesn't know where the enemy stands, so she has to guard against it many times!

But Shuyun didn't want Tom to know about his current situation, so he didn't have to worry about himself. Besides, no matter when, Shuyun doesn't want to lose the right and freedom to interact with friends, everyone has their own insistence, and Shuyun hopes that she and the friends she cares about will be respected. That's why Shuyun was alone with Tom yesterday, and sent away Qingsi who wanted to remind herself.

Shuyun didn't expect that Lao Kang would come so quickly, which was unexpected by Shuyun.
