Chapter 409: I don't know if I know it
Since Mei Xiaoren came to Beijing, she and Chu Yu have never been separated, let alone for months. She is also accustomed to being around him from morning to night, and this time, the days after that are for her, she doesn't have to think about how tormented they are.
The night before Gu Chuyu left Beijing was the Qixi Festival, and other people's Qixi Festival was a reunion, and it became a parting for her here, God this joke is really ...... It's really not making people laugh, and it's not crying.
His Majesty summoned Chu Yu into the palace in the afternoon, it should be to care about Chu Yu's going to Xia Kingdom as a monarch.
Mei Xiaoren waited alone in the house, sewing carefully with a needle and thread in his hand by the candle flame. She meticulously sewed the last corner, cut the silk thread, curled her fingers lightly, and held the purse that she had been working hard for many days in the palm of her hand.
He was going to travel far away, so she added a peace charm to her purse.
She used to not often ask God to worship the Buddha, because she was far away from her hometown, and she didn't have time to pray for herself, only to ask the gods to bless her family during the New Year's holidays.
"The slave has given instructions according to his master's instructions, and will set off tomorrow."
"Hmm."
Mei Xiaoren put away his purse, picked up a chess piece casually, and pretended to be playing chess.
The door was pushed open, and the sound of gentle footsteps reached her ears from far and near.
He sat down across from her, took her hand, and told her to put down the pieces.
"Xiao Xiao, today is Tanabata."
"I know, but this Qixi Festival ......" Mei Xiaoren paused abruptly.
She has always disliked sentimentality, and she didn't want to say something uncomfortable during the Qixi Festival, so she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, raised her eyes and smiled, "It's okay, we still have a lot of Qixi Festival." ”
"Shouldn't there be a gift for Tanabata?"
Mei Xiaoren smiled, deliberately pretended to be angry, looked to the side and sighed indifferently: "I came back so late, I still want a gift, let's see how I perform next year." ”
"I'm talking about a gift for you."
"For me?" Mei Xiaoren's face showed an unconcealed excitement, and he asked, "What is it?" ”
Gu Chuyu looked at the suitcase by the wall and said to her, "Go and take a look." ”
"New clothes?"
Mei Xiaoren had already guessed as he went over to open the box.
The candlelight shines in, and the red clothes are gorgeous.
Mei Xiaoren was stunned, stretched out his hand, and slowly stroked the surface of his clothes.
"This ......" she looked back at Gu Chuyu, and asked with surprise and subtlety, "When did it arrive?" ”
"Yesterday, try it and see if it fits."
The gift he gave was her wedding dress. Mei Xiaoren's heart was beating fast, although the wedding had already been put on the agenda, she was also ready to be a wife, and she was used to being called a lady by the people in the house, but when the wedding dress was really placed in front of her, she was still inexplicably nervous, both nervous and faintly excited.
For a woman, the wedding dress is the most precious and extraordinary dress in the world, so precious that she touches it carefully, for fear of blasphemy.
The night breeze danced lightly with the veil, and after a stick of incense, Mei Xiaoren walked out slowly from behind the screen, with green silk untied, draped behind him, and only dyed his lips with red paper.
She was wearing a wedding dress made of Yunjin, with gold and silver threads and peacock feather threads embroidered with ornaments, which was comparable to a phoenix robe.
Gu Chuyu watched her approach, and the fiery red became the best color in his eyes.
He has always believed that they will come to Japan for a long time, even if he wants him to go to the Xia Kingdom to save Wei Shuying, he has never hesitated too much, but now, she is like putting a fire in his heart, uncomfortable because he is reluctant...... I had to ...... again
Gu Chuyu stretched out his hand and led her to stand in front of him.
He saw that her eyes were hazy, as if a layer of fog had shrouded him, and he gradually recognized that it was a slight tear in her eyes, and she was enduring it.
She is stronger than the women of the world, and she rarely cries, and the last time she cried, she lost her official position, which used to be something she valued more than her life......
Now she sees him more than her life.
Gu Chuyu pulled Mei Xiaoren to sit on his lap, raised his hand and stroked her face, "It's just two or three months away, and it's not like it's going to be gone." ”
"Say it lightly! I'm worried about you. Mei Xiaoren pursed his face and frowned, "You have suppressed the Xia Kingdom for several years, and they finally turned over, and they suffered heavy losses due to a battle...... This time, if Xia Jun set a trap to take revenge on you, or Wei Guogong wants to use Xia Guo's hand to deal with you, Longtan Tiger's Den, can I rest assured? ”
"It may not be easy for them to get what they want."
"Whether they have that skill or not, you can't take it lightly." Mei Xiaoren said seriously, turned sideways to hug Gu Chuyu, and said, "If you have any mistakes, I can't spare you." ”
He put his arm around her waist and answered, "Yes." ”
Mei Xiaoren took this opportunity to take the things hidden under the chessboard, let go of him, and silently tied the purse around Gu Chuyu's waist, "It's not as good as what you sent, but you have to carry it with you, there is a peace charm in it, it is said to be very effective, it is better to believe it than not to believe it." ”
Gu Chuyu took the purse and looked at it, this time it was embroidered with plum blossoms, and the needles were meticulous, not a day's work.
"Xiao Xiao, I still have something for you."
"And?"
Gu Chuyu let her stand, took a brocade box from the wooden shelf by the window, opened it, picked the contents and tied it around her neck.
Mei Xiaoren lowered his eyes and looked at it, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Why is my jade dice here with you?" ”
The last time she was in distress in Xia Kingdom, the jade dice broke a corner, and after returning to Beijing, she took it off and prepared to send it to be repaired, but it was put on hold because of her busy business, and she forgot about it after a long delay.
"It's mine."
"Yours?" Mei Xiaoren was in a fog.
"I don't remember much when I was a child, but I remember burying it under a tree, because burying it trampled on my mother's beloved flower, and I was punished, and I also have a long memory." The corners of Gu Chuyu's lips rose, and he said, "As for why you buried it...... Maybe it's not a buried seed, hoping that it can grow a you for me. ”
Mei Xiaoren glanced at him, looked down at the jade dice, and a light smile appeared on his face. The broken corner had been repaired by the craftsman with silver, and there seemed to be something more in the dice, which would make a noise when shaken.
She picked up the dice and looked at the candle flame and found that it contained a red bean.
The smile on Mei Xiaoren's face froze.
Exquisite dice and red beans, do you know the lovesickness in the bones......
Gu Chuyu lowered his head, touched her forehead, and said lightly: "When I come back, we will get married." ”
"I'll wait for you......" Mei Xiaoren looked at Gu Chuyu, the smile on his face dissipated, and his expression became serious, "I have only one request, be safe." ”
"You are the same, you have to take care of yourself and protect yourself, my departure from Shangjing is a godsend for Ji Heng, he will not do nothing."
