Chapter 21 (That year in Chang'an, pounding clothes under the moon)

A bunch of women wearing short shirts and long skirts are washing clothes by the river, old and young, holding mallets in their hands, smashing the clothes in front of them vigorously on the stones by the river, some girls add a little soaphorn from time to time, and hit with the mallet, the whole river resounded with the continuous beating sound, and the girls laughed with each other, which was particularly lively.

A voice suddenly broke the scene, "Hey, are you doing the laundry again?" Come here, here. A woman about thirty years old said loudly to Ling Yuechan. Ling Yuechan smiled gently at the young woman, and with a wooden basin full of clothes, she walked towards the young woman delicately and softly, and said softly, "Yes, Aunt Li, thank you."

Aunt Li smiled heartily and said, "This stupid boy, thank you to Aunt Li, for so many years, who are we with whom, I still have a little soap corner here, you can use it together, don't be polite to Aunt Li."

With the arrival of Ling Yuechan, the surrounding girls lowered their speaking volume a lot, and a woman with a woman's hair in a bun asked the woman next to her in a low voice, "Who is this?" She looks like a real symbol, like a fairy daughter. “

"You don't know, okay, you just got married, I don't know if it's right, this woman, called Ling Yuechan, is famous in our village, originally her man, she set up a college in the village, and she is prosperous, and she has a good life, but I don't know what crazy his man has in the past few years, and he has to go out of the village, and he hasn't gone home for several years, and I don't know if it's gone."

"So she's alone now?"

"It's not, she still has a little uncle at home, named Yun Xinran, the two of them are now dependent on each other, that little uncle was sent to the school in the county town by her, where did she help her, this family, now it is all supported by her alone."

"In this way, this Ling Yuechan is quite miserable."

"Who says it's not, this Ling Yuechan is usually very good, gentle and gentle, everyone sees that she is alone and has a little uncle, at the beginning, her man also taught a lot of children in this village for free, in short, she can usually help a little more." The woman couldn't help but sigh as she spoke.

"It's really a scripture that is difficult to read, and it's not easy."

Ling Yuechan was still washing her clothes, saying a few words to Aunt Li from time to time, always with a clear and shallow smile, which made people feel very comfortable, and people couldn't help but feel that the years were quiet and the present world was stable.

Su Yan and Feng Jin took the second resentful soul, that is, Ling Yuechan's husband, Yun Baiqi hid aside, quietly looking at this picture, Yun Baiqi's heart was a little touched, and he finally saw her again, for the rest of his life, it turned out that what he couldn't forget was always the smile in that memory, he was worthy of the king, worthy of the people, but he was only sorry for her, let her bear so much alone, thinking of this, I couldn't help but choke in my heart.

Su Yan looked at Yun Baiqi's expression, and knew what he was thinking, so he said, "Are you sure you won't tell her your true identity?" She should be happy. “

"I am a sinner, a cunning rabbit dies, a lackey cooks, a bird is exhausted, a good bow is hidden, telling her my true identity will only make her fall into endless difficulties, I couldn't stand her at the beginning, let her wait for so long, and now I just want to see her happy, even if it is not me, it doesn't matter." Yun Baiqi took off the mask on his face, and the long and short scars hung horizontally on half of his face, making his face look particularly hideous, and sighed: "How can I be worthy of her now."

Su Yan couldn't bear to turn his head away, and even Feng Jin, a tough man, showed a little touch in his eyes, when they found Yun Baiqi's soul body, he became like this, probably because he was wronged too much before he died, resulting in the same appearance before he died, and I don't know how cruel he was treated before he died.

I thought his obsession should be revenge, but I didn't expect that he couldn't let go of his wife, such a man, and for some reason he was treated like this, which is sad and lamentable.

Feng Jin opened his mouth: "I helped you buy an inn in the county town, you can make a living in business, not far from this Pingjia Village, your younger brother is also in the nearby school, you can take care of them nearby, and we will accompany you until your wife finds a home."

Yun Baiqi bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you, Brother Feng, I can't repay you for this kindness, and I will definitely repay it one day."

Su Yan replied: "This is our duty, God chose you, we naturally want to help you, there is no grace, not to mention that it is worth it to help a man like you."

"Don't dare, Miss Su, it's wonderful, I really can't afford this compliment." Yun Baiqi clenched his fists and saluted back.

"I said that if you can afford it, you can afford it, how much you have paid for the country in the east with all your heart, how many ideas you have put forward, you are really resourceful, and you have done many good things for the people, and as a result, the man successfully restored the country, so he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey, and it was really the heart of the emperor, and he was ruthless." Su Yan sneered with some disdain.

Yun Baiqi was silent, he didn't speak, his death made him see a lot of things clearly, he never regretted helping that person return to the throne, he was a good emperor, but as a former friend, it really made people's hearts cold, sure enough, the position of the person was high, and even his heart became cold.

Feng Jin looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "I said that one of you has a sad face, and the other is full of righteous indignation, in short, it is all over, and you are not the prime minister of the eastern country, now, you are just Yun Nianyue, just a businessman, and interests are your pursuit, understand?"

"Yes, Mr. Feng, you are right, there is only one Yun Nianyue in this world now." Yun Baiqi's eyes were empty, his thoughts drifted into the distance, Su Yan and Feng Jin glanced at each other, did not disturb, only quietly led the way in front of him, and walked in the direction of the inn.
