Chapter 40: Restless Sleep (Part II)

That night, Su Xiyao still didn't feel sleepy when the night passed, and Xiaozhu talked about the military situation and the affairs of the house for a while, she has always liked to be quiet and alone, but she is afraid of being quiet at the moment.

Xiaozhu didn't want to sleep, so she simply didn't persuade her to rest, and the two of them talked one sentence at a time, often with a preface that didn't match the afterword.

When Xiaozhu was thinking about her mind in a daze again, Su Xiyao suddenly remembered something, took her hand and said, "Although you and I are called master servants, I treat you as my sister, and now there are no outsiders, let's say something intimate." ”

"What does Madame want to say?" Xiaozhu asked absentmindedly,

Su Xiyao said softly: "When you built a snowman that day, Sister Nuanyu mentioned the matter of the two of you, blame me for not being perfect, today I must know the truth, you can't avoid answering anymore." ”

Xiaozhu's face was flushed, and he said shyly: "I'm worried about the war, you still have the leisure to ask this." ”

Su Xiyao said: "I don't want to think about the enemy, the more I think about it, the more panicked I become, and besides, I can't help but go to the camp immediately, just at this moment to talk about you and him, and distract yourself." ”

Xiaozhu wanted to withdraw his hand and hide out, but Su Xiyao clung to it,

"This time you must make it clear, you are past the age of marriage, I can't delay you, if you really don't want to follow him, then you should find someone who is satisfied."

Xiaozhu couldn't break free, her face was red with shame and urgency, and she bit her lip but didn't speak.

Su Xiyao looked at her lovingly and said: "What else is there to be embarrassed about with me, you and Xiaohe have been by my side since you were twelve or thirteen years old, so many years of affection, what else can't you open, it stands to reason, I can make decisions for you in this matter, but since I am your sister, I must respect your ideas, I am afraid that if I guess your mind wrongly and wronged you, so let's do it, if you don't want to say it, you can nod or shake your head, everything is as you like, I will not force it." ”

As soon as she said this, Xiaozhu immediately didn't dare to move at all, her neck seemed to freeze, and she didn't gasp.

Su Xiyao was a little helpless with her, and thought for a while: "Then forget it, I don't care, if you make me angry one day, don't blame me for marrying you off in anger." ”

Xiaozhu finally spoke, and said in an almost inaudible voice: "Don't force me, it's good to be like this with him, I won't marry, if you want to drive me away, I will die in front of you." ”

Su Xiyao said with a smile: "Finally spoke, how could I drive you away, to speak from the heart, I wish you could follow him, we will never be separated in this life, I am really worried that you will meet a favorite one day and leave us, if that is the case, I will not be able to stop you." ”

Xiaozhu was very emotional, her eyes were red and said: "Madame, where do you want to go, I will never leave Madame in this life, Xiaohe insisted on me before she died, asking me to serve Madame well on her behalf, I promised her." ”

Thinking of Xiaozhu's deathbed appearance, Su Xiyao's eyes were also red, and she hugged Xiaozhu and cried, after a while, she wiped Xiaozhu's tears and instructed: "Let's just talk about it, you can't tell him this, so as not to hurt him." ”

Xiaozhu choked and nodded, and said: "Since she asked me to take care of him together, then how dare I not be unkind, tell Mrs. the truth, I will never put other men in my heart, so if you really love me, don't mention the matter of matching me with people, for him it is more of a brother and sister, it seems boring to follow him, we are very good like now, and we don't have to worry about anything when we laugh." ”

Su Xiyao stroked her shoulder and said, "It's good that I know your mind, and you know my mind, so let it be, you two can do whatever you like, I won't have much to do in the future." ”

Xiaozhu relaxed and said, "It's late, Madame should sleep for a while." ”

Su Xi moved his body for a moment and said, "You can sleep here with me tonight, and you may be able to fall asleep while lying down and talking." ”

Xiaozhu sighed with emotion: "It's the first time I've seen my wife so uneasy, I'll go get the futon." ”

Su Xiyao said: "Just use him, don't wake them up if those little girls are sleeping soundly, you are brothers and sisters, no one should dislike anyone." ”

Xiaozhu pursed his lips and smiled, then stopped insisting, and hugged He Ran's futon to spread on the mat next to the couch.

Su Xiyao stopped and said, "Let's sleep on the couch together." ”

Xiaozhu hurriedly said: "This is not good, no matter how good my wife treats me, there are still rules to have, I don't dare." ”

Su Xiyao pretended to be displeased and said: "Are you only kissing him or me, the affection for more than ten years is not as good as three or five years, just keep some etiquette in front of outsiders, how can you pay so much attention to going out." ”

Xiaozhu still refused, and said while laying out the futon: "It's always bad to let those little girls see it, Mrs. hurts me, I know, but this must not be Mrs. ”

Su Xiyao was no longer reluctant, and after the two of them lay down, they began to talk about each other as before.

I don't know how long it took, Xiaozhu stopped talking, Su Xiyao was also tired, and she seemed to hear the sound of war drums in a hazy way, she sat up in shock, woke up Xiaozhu and said, "Listen, is there a war drum." ”

Xiaozhu was awakened in a dream, his heart was pounding, he listened for a while, and said, "No, I can't hear it, I just hear my heart beating." ”

Su Xiyao said: "I heard it just now, but now I don't have it." So saying, he lay back,

Xiaozhu also lay down and explained: "Madam is too anxious, even if we are really engaged in the army, we can't help much, let's sleep, he will definitely report to us immediately when there is a result." ”

Su Xiyao listened intently for a while, and gradually closed her eyes again, the door of the room that had just entered the dream realm was slammed open, and He Ran held on to the door frame with a bloody face and shouted: "Quick, run, it's a big defeat." When he had finished speaking, he withered and collapsed to the ground.

Frightened, she flew out of the sky, while shouting his name while running over to hug him, I saw that he was hit by several arrows in his back, bleeding all over his body I don't know how many injuries, Xiao Xiao's hand-embroidered robe has been dyed red, it seems that it is no longer good, she shouted sadly, He Ran suddenly opened his closed eyes, a happy smile appeared on his face, and said, don't be sad, I have won your heart in this life, I have no regrets in death, you return to Yueshan Villa, I will go there to find you in the next life, after speaking, I closed my eyes again and breathed out,

She couldn't accept such an ending anyway, she hissed and wailed, pulled out the sword under his side and wanted to kill herself, but suddenly thought of how Xiaozhu couldn't sleep so dead and couldn't get up, so she shouted, Xiaozhu, get up and go quickly, the enemy soldiers are coming, Xiaozhu sat up in a daze, looked at her without panic, and said, where are the enemy soldiers, and lay down again after speaking,

Su Xiyao hurriedly went over and kicked her, shouting, didn't you see that he was dead, I will kill myself, don't you run away,

At this time, she was finally woken up, Xiaozhu was looking at her worriedly, and kept calling in her mouth: "Madame, Madame." ”

Su Xiyao only felt cold all over her body, she was already in a cold sweat, her heart was pounding and she still didn't get out of the dream, and shouted, "Don't go quickly." ”

Xiaozhu said: "Madame, wake up, don't be fascinated by nightmares, you are dreaming." ”

Su Xiyao looked at the door in horror, because the lights in the house had not been extinguished, so she saw it very clearly, and said in surprise at a glance: "It's really a dream." ”

Xiaozhu nodded vigorously and said, "Isn't this all good, where are the enemy soldiers?" ”

Su Xiyao let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Great, fortunately, it's a dream." After stabilizing his mind, he said in a firm tone, "No, I have to go to the camp tomorrow, early in the morning." ”

"Okay, go early in the morning, lie down and cover the quilt first, don't suffer from the sweat all over your body." Xiaozhu coaxed her to lie down,

At this time, Xiaoqing asked outside, "Madame, do you need us to serve?" "Apparently she was woken up by the movement here, and came to visit,

Xiaozhu said outward: "With me here, you go to sleep." ”
