Chapter 47: Returning Home (2)
Old Lady Su closed her eyes and moved the beads in her hand. The mood was extremely bad, and General Su personally went to pick up Su Xiangsi to return home, which was his own decision. She didn't know about it until this morning. If I didn't return home at night, it turned out that I was going to pick up Su Acacia.
The husband didn't discuss with her first for the sake of this granddaughter, he didn't take her seriously, and he indirectly didn't believe in her ability to do things. If her husband sat down and discussed with her, he might be relieved. Now that she is suddenly like this, she can't figure out what her husband is thinking, and she complains that Su Xiangsi will cause trouble if she is restless.
Hiding the displeasure in his heart, he opened his eyes and was a kind and kind-hearted elder. looked at the girl who was kneeling in the main hall and bowing, and said slowly: "Get up quickly, it seems that you have lost a lot of weight in praying for blessings in the Puluo Temple for a few days, and I have wronged you." ”
Su Xiangsi got up according to her words, and her words were flat: "It doesn't feel hard for my granddaughter to go and pray for the blessings of the whole house." In addition to meditating and praying every day, he also hand-copied Buddhist scriptures and presented them to his grandmother. With that, Liu Fu respectfully presented a hand-copied Buddhist scripture. Mrs. Su's eyes just swept the cover casually and let Qin's mother take it.
Expressionless, he said, "You have a heart." ”
"As soon as you come back, you will be relieved to cultivate in the house, the matter has been investigated, and my grandfather believes that you are innocent."
Hearing General Su's words, the ladies in the hall were slightly surprised. There has been no movement in the house, and it was actually General Su who personally checked it privately. For the sake of a Su Acacia, General Su actually personally intervened in the affairs of the backyard.
The corners of Mrs. Su's mouth stiffened slightly, because she suspected that she would be biased towards others and would not investigate it fairly.
Su Xiangsi and everyone were playing haha, and Mrs. Su was unhappy, and put on a majestic posture to admonish a few words not to make waves in the house. Seeing General Su's slightly satisfied look, he sent them back to the courtyard.
Back in the familiar courtyard, everything was the same as when she left. The trellis had been re-trimmed, and the branches wrapped around the bamboo poles had sprouted, and the servants were still doing their own work like that, and when they saw her come back and salute respectfully.
It's really rare to be able to eat with your loved ones after half a month, from the past when the whole family could eat together every day, to the father and brother who were busy with the barracks, and after the Spring Festival party, they never got together like this again.
Su Xiangsi deliberately fell into such a fishy thing, and Su Mian and Li Qinse strongly opposed it. Unexpectedly, Su Xiangsi insisted on going his own way, and reprimanded a few words for Mu Jinchen's poison without taking into account the feelings of his relatives.
Su Xiangsi coaxed Li Qinse and Su Mian with kind words, and simply told them that Mu Jinchen was fine, and simply went back to his house after lunch.
"Miss rest for a while." Rosin Xiang checked the room and saw Su Xiangsi squinting on the low chair with his elbows on it, and couldn't help but make a sound.
Su Xiangsi shook his head: "Go to the warehouse to prepare some things, and go to Youlan Courtyard in a while." ”
Rosin knew that she had no objections, and took the key to the warehouse and went out to do something.
After Aunt Liu's miscarriage, Mrs. Su only sent someone to send tonic medicine twice, but there was no movement. How lively this remote courtyard was when I was pregnant with a child, and how deserted it is now.
The second master is a person who cares about love, and he didn't forget Aunt Liu in the corner to fend for herself. With Su Hong's advice, Aunt Liu's body is recovering well. The face is rosy and bright.
When the maid informed the third lady to the front hall, Su Yiling was looking at the new pen. Knowing that Su Xiangsi felt strange when she came over, what did she think about coming back to her?
Slowly walked to the front hall and saw Su Xiangsi smiling and sipping tea, without any sorrow at all. Leaving the house for a few days had no effect on her, and she didn't panic in the slightest on the day she left the house. After the Spring Festival party, the limelight was in full swing, and his attitude was also calm, but he was a calm strange person.
"The third sister just came back, she should have a good rest, why do you have time to come to me." Su Yiling quietly swept the box in Rosin's hand, and sat down to level her skirt in the first place.
The corners of Su Xiangsi's mouth were a little bitter and helpless: "Aunt Liu has lost her child, everyone feels pity, this matter is full of suspicions." My grandfather ordered me to pray for blessings. I was in too much of a hurry to visit Aunt Liu. I'm back today, and I don't dare to delay at all, and this is coming. ”
Speaking of the child who failed to come to the world, Su Yiling's brow was also a little distressed: "It's all fate, it happened suddenly that night, my grandfather was too decisive, I want to intercede for you It's too late." The third sister shouldn't blame me. ”
Su Xiangsi glanced at her with disgust, and said softly: "How can I blame the second sister, if I blame you, I won't bring you the Buddhist scriptures back." As he spoke, he personally took the Buddhist scripture and pushed it into her hand.
Su Yiling was overjoyed when she saw the title of the book on the cover, carefully put the Buddhist scriptures away, and took her hand affectionately: "Aunt Liu will be in a happy mood after she has no children, and I can't accompany her every day to relieve her boredom because of miscellaneous things, so my sister will go and take a look when she is free." ”
Aunt Liu's house is still those people, and there is no joy on her face. Seeing Su Xiangsi come in, he saluted solemnly and welcomed her in.
Aunt Liu's daughter, Su Liuye, is fourteen years old, and her appearance has inherited the appearance of her biological mother's graceful and delicate little jasper. Because she is a concubine, she has no sense of existence in the house than Su Xiangsi.
The monthly money and seasonal dresses are also common styles, not to mention the opportunity to go out to various poetry parties with good jewelry.
In this deep house, if you don't have the ability, you don't dare to fight for a favor. Aunt Liu just wants to guard her daughter to live a peaceful and carefree life.
Aunt Liu's needlework and embroidery skills are excellent, and she and her daughter sit on the window bed to discuss the style of embroidery, and it is almost summer, and she is planning to make more dresses for her daughter herself.
When Su Xiangsi entered the house, she saw a mother and daughter who were in deep and quiet love, and newly planted flower branches were placed on the table. The interior of the house is still decorated with a brief introduction with a different style.
Su Liuye saw Su Xiangsi through the veil, her heart jumped, and she put down the needle and thread in her hand and led Aunt Liu forward to bend her legs and salute.
Su Xiangsi leaned over to help the mother and daughter: "No need to be polite, I'm just here to see how my aunt is doing." ”
After Su Xiangsi sat down, Aunt Liu's mother and daughter sat aside. After all, the third lady is a serious master, and their identity is not as good as her, so they are still a little cramped and restrained. The maid brought tea and waited aside.
"Thank you Miss San for your concern, I heard about the events of that day. I believe in my heart that Miss San is innocent. ”
"I don't want to go in my heart, and I asked for two peace blessings for Aunt Liu and Ye'er in Puluo Temple." He took out two purses from his bosom and handed them to them himself.
Aunt Liu didn't expect the third lady to be so sincere, and she didn't dare to shirk and take the purse. The rippling beautiful eyes are full of gratitude, no matter how many supplements there are, they are not as intimate as Su Xiangsi.
looked at Su Liuye, and his eyes were full of caution. Su Xiangsi could say as much as she could to calm her tone and not scare her: "I know that Liu Ye is a sensible and caring child. Don't grieve yourself when you feel sorry for your aunt. Saying that, he turned his head and ordered the catkins: "You take someone back to the bamboo courtyard to get a few horses of silk and gouache, summer is coming." Silk is the perfect fit. ”
Liu Wu bowed his head and called the maid who sent tea to take a trip. The little maid hesitated for a while, but still kept up with the catkins. Su Xiangsi watched them go away before retracting his gaze. Without Su Xiangsi's signal, rosin consciously guarded the door.
Su Xiangsi took a sip of tea, but the old tea had a somewhat astringent and musty taste, so he didn't drink more: "I've wronged you." ”
Su Liuye got up and saluted generously and dignifiedly: "Thank you Third Miss for secretly rescuing ......"
An hour later, catkins and the little maid came back with a lot of good things. Women love beauty, Su Liuye has never seen such exquisite fabrics and jewelry gouache, and the feel to the touch makes her love it.
In the end, a few words of greeting did not disturb Aunt Liu's lunch break, and Su Xiangsi also left Youlan Courtyard.
Before they went far, the conversation between Su Xiangsi and the mother and daughter was all passed into Su Yiling's ears.
After listening to this, Su Yiling had no waves in her heart, her eyes fell on the Buddhist scriptures on the table again, and her mind drifted away. This Buddhist scripture is like a timely rain in a dry land, if Su Xiangsi doesn't send it today, she will have to find an excuse to go to the Puluo Temple to beg.
The news of Su Xiangsi's visit to Aunt Liu reached the ears of the masters of the courtyards in a quarter of an hour.
