The sky is cloudless and the sky is blue, which is really a rare good weather. The osmanthus flowers in the courtyard are exquisitely small and fragrant, which is unique. Under the layers of moon-white delicates, there was a girl as small and delicate as this osmanthus flower, sitting under the swing frame in a daze.

In the past half a month, Huan Jiuyao has hardly stepped out of the door half a step, she wanted to keep filial piety for her mother, but there is still a newborn younger brother who needs to be taken care of by her, and her mother is buried in the princess's mausoleum as the eldest daughter of the first emperor and the eldest princess, and she can't go easily. She understands that the deceased is gone, and she can only spend her time and hide this sadness in her heart, after all, she still has a lot to do, she has not yet accurately found out the cause of her mother's death, and has not raised her younger brother in care, how can she be decadent and forget her will, and live up to her mother's hard work that day?

It's just that even if she thinks clearly, sadness can't be easily resolved, and now she has been sitting quietly in a daze for at least half of the day, and sometimes even sheds tears unconsciously, which makes Chu Yun Chu Ya really worried when she sees it. Now these two girls are always inseparable, for fear that she will not be able to think of doing something stupid for a while, but it makes her feel funny, she herself is a person who has died once, how can she not understand life and death? I just feel unwilling, unwilling to lose what I finally have so easily, but how can she be so weak to seek death and life like this?

Today, she asked Chu Yun to change into a pickaxe pigment skirt for her, without using Zhu Hai. The Southern Qi etiquette is loose and women are relatively free, but if their parents die, the average woman will not be allowed to marry during the three-year mourning period, and she will not be allowed to wear hairpins and jade and brocade clothes within three months. Although she doesn't care about these etiquette, after all, she is a mother, so she naturally wants to fulfill this heart as much as possible.

"Miss, the slave maid has inquired. Over the years, there has been an aunt in the house, and now that the lady has gone, she is helping to take care of it these days. And I also heard that the aunt was carried into the house because Xiangye was drunk and had a relationship with her, Xiangye has never touched her again for so many years, but she is also powerful, she was pregnant that night, and she is still a young master, and now she is five or six years old! However, because of this incident, the people in the house said that although the lady was generous, she had such a good relationship with the master, and I am afraid that it would be indispensable to have a little separation. Although there was no more turmoil for a while, Mrs. was sad for nearly half a year and never gave Xiangye a good look. Chu Ya trotted all the way back, whispered in Huan Jiuyao's ear, and when she heard that the aunt had given birth to a young master, her eyes suddenly flashed and she thought about it.

"Chu Ya, have you ever asked what the origin of that aunt is? What about that kid? ”

"Oh, I heard that Aunt Liu is just a maid who used to serve Xiangye. It's just a little different, our Xiangye has never used a maidservant, but this one was arranged by the old woman back then, and it seems that he intended to let Xiangye accept the room, but Xiangye didn't have this idea, but because he was a person who had been waiting earlier, he had always been closer. Chu Ya pouted disdainfully as she spoke, presumably she also had a lot of mischief for people of this status.

"Oh? In that case, she must have been waiting by her father's side for many years, why am I not at all impressed? Huan Jiuyao thought about it carefully, but he had never found such a person in his mind, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Presumably the young lady was still young at the time, and besides, this Aunt Liu heard that she only served in the Xiangye Courtyard and did not follow her side, so it is natural that you have no impression."

"I see. Do you know what her relationship with my mother is? ”

"I heard that Aunt Liu is a gentle and virtuous lady, never treats people harshly, is always kind to others, and her heart is also very good. I hadn't heard of her having a bad relationship with her wife. Chu Ya said, frowning very suspiciously: "Miss, it's just an aunt, what are you doing so carefully?" ”

"Heh, just an aunt? You're naïve. But a maid can be an aunt in the house under my mother's nose, and she has saved a good reputation for herself for many years of trembling, and she also gave birth to a son, do you really think she is a gentle and virtuous interpreter flower?! When Huan Jiuyao heard Chu Ya's words, he couldn't help but sneer, and a cold light burst out of his eyes, this Aunt Liu is really not a simple character.

"To say something from Miss, is that Aunt Liu really a powerful character? What can I do? Xiangye is really, I know how bad it is to do this, but I still got an aunt in the house, isn't this a blockage for our wife?! Chu Ya became more and more indignant as she spoke, and her face wrinkled into a bun, which was very cute.

"Cut, but it's just an aunt, what if she has the means? However, I really don't blame my father, I guess my mother also understood that my father had no other intentions for that woman before she was willing to let go of him. After all, this is not a glorious thing, my father is above 10,000 people under one person, and my mother is the princess of the first emperor's relatives, if such a thing spreads, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to my father's career, and only by carrying her into the house can she avoid saying something that she shouldn't say and ruining her father's reputation. It's just that...... This is related to his father in the end, if he hadn't been careless and calculated, how could he leave such a woman, who has become a thorn in his mother's heart! Huan Jiuyao looked up at the osmanthus flowers full of trees, as if he was careless.

"Miss...... But how do you think that Xiangye was calculated by Aunt Liu? Chu Ya finally grasped the key point correctly and appropriately expressed her doubts.

"You think, if Daddy is interested in that woman, then why wait until he gets drunk and behaves to her? Besides, the little guy in the courtyard, who is not the one who has served her father for many years, how can her father's drunkenness make her meet when she goes to serve and there is no one around, only the two of them are there? Besides, my father is stable and self-reliant and doesn't drink often, even if he drinks, he won't get drunk, even if he is drunk, which time is not taken care of by his mother? Why did such a big thing happen at that time? ”

"Oh, it seems like that......" Chu Ya listened to this long list of analyses, making herself confused and half understood, rubbing her head, feeling the lack of brain capacity.

"Okay, okay, you can't understand what you say, don't think about it. If you have this kung fu, why don't you help me pick some clean osmanthus flowers, and let's make osmanthus cakes to eat! Huan Jiuyao couldn't stand her confused look, and only felt that she was fortunate to have such a kind, tolerant and witty master as herself, otherwise one day her life would be in the hands of others.

"Yes, yes, miss...... You're finally not so sad, Chu Ya is really happy! The girl watched Huan Jiuyao disappear for a long time, and finally a faint smile appeared on her face again, and she was excited.

"Silly girl! How could I not be sad? It is a lifelong thing for me to miss and remember my mother, and I will never forget such pain. It's just that although I'm sad these days, I also understand that it's useless to be sad, I can't be a coward, and my mother must not like my depressed appearance, I just want to give myself some time to adjust and adjust. I still have a lot to do, and I don't have much time to grieve...... I only hope that my mother doesn't blame me for being unfilial. She lowered her eyelids as she spoke, staring at her feet in confusion, her face overflowing with sadness.

"Miss, I'm sorry, it's Chu Ya who is not good, Chu Ya mentioned the things that made you sad again. Don't worry, Madame, such an understanding person, will definitely understand your mind, Miss. She definitely hopes that Miss will not indulge in sadness because of her, and hopes that Miss can live a safe and happy life every day! Chu Ya looked at her appearance, and suddenly felt self-blame, and she was about to burst into tears.

"Well, I know! Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, let's make osmanthus cakes, and by the way, let my dad taste my craftsmanship, my dad has never eaten what I made! Looking at Chu Ya's pitiful appearance, she suddenly laughed out loud, and said loudly as if she didn't care, but Chu Ya didn't see the lingering sad look in her eyes......
