Chapter Forty-Seven: The Return
The next day, the sky was still gray, someone summoned that Lord Lu had sent a carriage to pick up, I don't understand why every time I leave, there is always a sneaky illusion, my heart is a little unhappy, Sang Ma saw me like this, comforted and said, the folk taboo parting, whether it is a dignitary or a common person, as long as they leave home, they will pick it before dawn or when the night is just sinking, so I am also relieved.
Left a long letter to the queen mother in the palace, ordered the palace maid to wait for me to leave and then handed it over, and also left her own embroidered magnolia juanpa, I have everything to be given to me by others, only this manual work is my own, leaving such a thing is also hoping to comfort a mother's heart.
Or is it the carriage when I came, magnificent, but the mood is different, I used to go home and look forward to it, but now, the journey is long, the south? Liangzhou? Where the hell is where I belong?
A few days ago, I made the decision to marry Bai Zhi and Huo Shu, and finally had more fun in my boring life, and the queen mother also rewarded Bai Zhi with a golden hairpin as a dowry after knowing it, and praised her for serving Youjia. Sang Ma was also very happy, busy all day long, perhaps, this is also a kind of sustenance for her, I can't bear to say it, I can only let her go.
I got up too early, I was still very sleepy, and when I got into the carriage, I half-lay down and closed my eyes to rest, and Bai Zhi gently covered me with a blanket. Lu Wen didn't come to harass me, but just said hello outside the carriage and ordered people to move slowly and not disturb my dreams.
"Master, if you say goodbye like this, the queen will be sad." Bai Zhi whispered in her ear, a little lonely in her tone.
Sang Ma immediately blamed, "Don't talk too much, do you think the master feels good." Do your thing. ”
I didn't open my eyes, I didn't say anything, no words can describe my conflicted heart, I didn't like it there, but I relied on her, I couldn't bear her, but I couldn't help but go.
Rolled over and continued to fall asleep, only to hear a heavy sigh behind him.
How could I ever have thought like this, knowing that I didn't belong here, but I still couldn't control my feelings, obviously resentful, but after all, my heart was warmed. Although there are not many people around me, only a few, but six years have made me deeply dependent on their existence, friendship, family, or love?
When I woke up, I had arrived in Yecheng, this time I didn't disturb the city lord, but I found a place to live, the customs of Liangzhou are very different from those in the south, when I came, I was in a hurry, and I didn't go to the market carefully.
I bought a lot of silk satin, golden hairpin hosta, among which my favorite is the aqua blue smoke silk, which is soft and smooth. Yang made me new clothes with mulberry hemp, remembered Hanfu, so he drew his own style, and asked Bai Zhi to draw a few auspicious cloud patterns as a match. took a piece of velvet powder cloud satin to Bai Zhi, which was regarded as a wedding gift for her, and Sang Ma picked a tender green Su Jin by himself.
Seeing them happy, I'm happy too. They are all young girls, and they naturally like these things, but because of their status, they are very different.
Lu Wen saw that we were having fun, so he stayed here for a few more days, sending Bai Zhi to accompany Huo Shu, every day I took Sang Ma out to go shopping, buy delicious food, and occasionally catch up with a temple fair to join in the fun, on the day I went to the Yuelao Temple, I saw an old man at the temple gate selling a bundle of heart ropes, but it was not sold to everyone, some people took gold to buy, and the old man did not sell, but it aroused my curiosity.
"Old man, someone has a gold ingot to do your business, why don't you sell it?" I pulled Sang Ma and walked to the stall and asked softly.
A black wood desk is very rough in workmanship, but the desktop is as smooth as new, like a mandarin duck playing in the water carved with a milli knife, and it looks exquisite. There were thousands of threads on the table, as well as braided ropes, just like the ones tied around my ankles. There is a sail pole standing next to the table, and the dragon and the phoenix dance write the rope that binds the heart, and the book is written in small characters on the side, which is only given to those who are destined.
The old man didn't look at me, but concentrated on weaving the red thread in his hand, and said disdainfully, "It's hard to buy the world's love, vulgarity, and vulgarity." ”
Sang Ma saw that he was a little disrespectful to me, and was about to stand up and blame, but I gently pulled him and shook his head, but the old man's words were crepe, and they sounded really like that, "I see that this is written about a destined person, how can the old man tell what a destined person is?" ”
Listening to me break the casserole and ask in the end, the old man finally raised his head and looked at me, mottled silver filaments, furrow-like wrinkles densely covered his face, showing the years of wind and frost, he grinned, "You little girl, the affectionate and ruthless old man knows at a glance, and it is just a thought to have a fate, just like you, this bundle of heart ropes is a useless thing for you." ”
As soon as he said this, I was stunned, useless things? The original intention of the heart rope was to tie the heart, and now I have already made up my mind not to go back. I'm afraid this rope is really useless to me.
Bidding farewell to the old man, I lost the excitement just now, and hurried back to the inn with Sang Ma, and slept for two days.
Lu Wen saw that I was not interested in playing in Yecheng, so he asked people to quickly replenish the grain and grass and set off, and sent someone to inform him that he would go back to Tongyuguan directly, and the road would not stop, and if there was any need, he would inform him in advance, so he could send someone to prepare. Listening to this made me feel lonely again, and I really wanted to leave.
After five or six days of hurrying, I finally got out of the border of Liangzhou, and the Tongyu Gate in the distance, just like the way I left a month ago, was cold and uninhabited.
I still went to General Yu's mansion, but when I went, the general's wife was not in Tongyu Pass, I heard that General Yu's daughter who had been married for more than half a year was pregnant, so Mrs. rushed to the pass to serve, but General Yu still took a burden to me, saying that it was all clothes sewn by Mrs. herself, so I don't dislike it.
The mood that was originally rendered by parting was even more sad when she saw those new clothes, thinking that Mrs. Xu would accompany her for a few days before coming here for a while, and now she is not in Tongyu Pass, I don't want to stay in this sad place for a while, and General Yu, Lu Wen said goodbye, and Huo Shu led the team when they came, and the group embarked on the return journey again.
