The jade rabbit rises in the east, the clear light is sprinkled all over, the flowers and trees are like hail, and the courtyard is empty.

After worshipping the moon, the adults sit and enjoy the moon and gossip, and the children eat the moon cakes and fruits, while you chase me and play and frolic.

The courtyard was full of laughter and scattered in the wind.

After a while, Da Chun hurriedly walked over and said, "Miss Zhang from the British Mansion is here." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace holds a banquet as usual, and a noble family like the British Mansion will definitely be invited. Zhang Xi didn't go to the palace for a banquet, but what did he do at home?

Everyone looked at Huang Yi'an.

Huang Yi'an got up and said with a smile: "I'll go and see first." ”

With that, he lifted the corner of his skirt and walked out of the courtyard.

As soon as I came out of the hanging flower gate, I saw Zhang Xi walking over, and his smile looked a little blurred under the moonlight.

Huang Yi'an hurriedly greeted him, held Zhang Xi's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Zhang is here." ”

Zhang Xi nodded with a smile and said, "Come rashly, I hope it doesn't disturb your family reunion." ”

"How so? Sister Zhang was too worried. Huang Yi'an smiled and greeted people inside.

When they arrived at the courtyard, they saluted each other.

Zhang Xi said with a smile: "My mother likes the moon cakes sent by Sister An very much, and she praises the new and ingenious patterns, and the flavors are also rich, especially the chestnut and egg yolk, she likes it very much." Therefore, I specially sent some mooncakes from the palace to taste them with you. ”

Lan Xin stepped forward and handed the snack box to Amei.

Everyone laughed and thanked them.

Huang Yi'an saw that Zhang Xi couldn't hide his gloom between his eyebrows, so he smiled and said to everyone: "I'm a little tired of making moon cakes today, so I won't go to watch the lanterns, just when Sister Zhang is here, you can talk to me." ”

Zhang Xi glanced at Huang Yi'an gratefully.

Wang smiled: "Since this is the case, then we will go to the street to watch the lights first." Sister Xi has to entertain Miss Zhang well at home. ”

Huang Yi'an responded with a smile.

Qi felt that it was inappropriate.

Distinguished guests come to the door, but the host's family goes to the street to watch the lights, leaving only a child at home to entertain guests, what is going on?

was about to speak, but was pulled away by Wang's look, so he had to give up.

When the people in the courtyard dispersed, Huang Yi'an asked Zhang Xi to sit down, made tea again, and put moon cakes and fruits on the table.

After a round of tea, Zhang Xi finally couldn't help but have red eyes, and tears rolled down into the tea.

Seeing this, Lan Xin quietly retreated to the bottom of the corridor.

Huang Yi'an sighed secretly, got up and sat down beside Zhang Xi, and raised his hand to caress his back.

One time, two times......

Gentle and gentle.

Zhang Xi's emotions that had been suppressed for many days finally couldn't be controlled anymore, and he hugged Huang Yi'an sideways, sobbing and sobbing, and tears soon wet Huang Yi'an's clothes.

Huang Yi'an's eyes were red, and he reached out to hug Zhang Xi, caressing and comforting him.

Lan Xin, who was standing under the corridor, heard the suppressed cry in the courtyard, and also raised her sleeves to cover her eyes.

……

After a long time, Zhang Xi gradually stopped crying.

Huang Yi'an's shoulders and plackets were already wet.

Zhang Xi wiped his tears and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, Sister An." ”

Huang Yi'an smiled: "It's just a piece of clothing, just change it when you go back." It's you, your eyes are red and swollen from crying, if you don't deal with it, I'm afraid that if you go back, your family will be worried. ”

When Zhang Xi heard this, he couldn't help but think of the British duchess who was attending the palace banquet in good spirits at this time, and it was inevitable that he would be sad again.

"Sister An, how can you say that there is such a person in this world who will take revenge?

"She is obsessed with the third brother, and she just sets up a frame to frame her, and even wants to involve Princess Shouyang, isn't this gambling on the future of the entire British government? What's wrong with her in our family? She's going to do this to us!

"I think my mother did not hesitate to use power to exert pressure, and would rather let people accuse the British government of bullying people than save her from her stepmother. You don't know, when she first arrived at the house, she was obviously three years old, but she looked like a child of more than a year old, small and thin, as if a gust of wind could blow it away. Her eyes were timid, and she didn't dare to reach out to take anything she was given. made my mother cry for a long time......

"My mother has pampered her for more than ten years, and she has no worse food, clothing, and teachers than me, my own daughter. He taught us a few more from time to time and treated her as a sister......

But she almost her mother to death, and even watched her coldly and spoke ill of her when she fainted......

"You say, what the hell is her heart made of?!

"How could she do such a thing?!"

……

Huang Yi'an cried and said by Zhang Xi until she poured out all the depression and dissatisfaction in her heart.

No one better understands the loneliness and confusion of pain when there is no one to complain about. That kind of loneliness and helplessness will make people despair, and gradually be swallowed up by the fear and darkness in the bottom of their hearts, and in the end, only a barren land remains.

In order not to let herself fall into such a desolate and desperate situation, she would work hard to learn various skills in her previous life, and redeem herself in the boring and long years......

Seeing that Zhang Xi's expression calmed down, Huang Yi'an instructed Lan Xin: "Go and fetch a basin of water and wait for your young lady to freshen up." ”

Lan Xin hurriedly wiped away her tears and agreed.

Huang Yi'an helped Zhang Xi into the west chamber and lit the lamp.

After a while, Lan Xin fetched water and came in

As soon as Huang Yi'an looked up, he saw that Lan Xinyi's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and he sighed with a smile: "Look at the two of your masters and servants, your eyes are crying like walnuts one by one." ”

After listening to Zhang Xi's mother, after a thorough investigation, she found out a lot of servant women who were secretly bought by Mingyi, among which there were several people who helped calculate Zhang Chi at the last osmanthus appreciation meeting.

In contrast, Lan Xin is really loyal.

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled embarrassedly.

"Your young lady doesn't need you to serve here." Huang Yi'an smiled, "You go to the kitchen and ask Granny Wang to boil a few eggs and bring them." ”

Lan Xin took the order and went.

Zhang Xi cleaned his face, and then soaked a handkerchief in water and covered his eyes to reduce swelling.

Huang Yi'an took the comb grate, re-combed the snail bun for her, and put the bead hairpin one by one.

After a while, Lan Xin brought the boiled eggs over.

"Peel the eggs and roll them over your eyes to reduce the swelling." Huang Yi'an said with a smile.

Lan Xin promised, first peeled two eggs and handed them to Zhang Xi, and then peeled them for his own use.

It took half an hour to be so busy before everything was cleaned up.

Zhang Xi looked at the egg in his hand and muttered, "Alas, I don't know what happened to my mother in the palace at this time......"

Thinking of her mother's depressed and frail body, but she still had to go to the palace for a banquet and entertain with a smile, she felt so distressed.

It stands to reason that she should also go with her.

But her mother was worried that she was too young to hide her emotions.

"The festival banquet in the palace, the queen mother of the two palaces is above, and the clan relatives and nobles are full, if you are emotionally emotional because of the things at home, it will not only make people suspect that there is another hidden story behind Sister Yan'er's sudden return to Ming's house, Sister Yu'er's reputation is not good, and she may also offend the nobles.

"Besides, with your brothers and sisters-in-law accompanying me into the palace, what else are you worried about?

"If you are bored and bored at home, you can go to Huangfu to find Miss Huang to talk and relax. Just send a box of mooncakes from the royal gift. ”

It's all come to this point, and my mother still thinks about Mingyan's reputation and future, but what about Mingyan......
