Chapter 7 Blessings and Misfortunes

The next day, the Imperial Dining Room.

"You remove the cores of these lotus seeds, and then wash these mung beans and black rice, wash them a few times, and there can be no stones and sand in them, in case you burp the teeth of the master and the masters, you are good-looking!" Wei Lianghong threw a few bags to Su Yi and said coldly.

"Yes." Su Yi wanted to say something, but it could be seen that Wei Lianghong glared at her with disdain, but she didn't know where to start. She just made a few dishes, although she said that she was more than a substitute, but she would not be punished like this, and besides, the cooking was arranged by the blister chief!

Xing'er was dissatisfied, she said to Wei Lianghong: "Father-in-law, you are the head of this imperial dining room, we shouldn't have said anything, but everything has a reason, why did you let Su Yi be a husband?" Did she do something wrong? Or did she make some mistake? ”

"Humph! Now that you know I'm the boss here, you should shut up! It's not your turn to teach me what I'm going to make her do! Do you want to be a husband with her? Wei Lianghong suddenly changed color and said sharply.

"You ......" Xing'er raised her eyebrows, and Su Yi hurriedly grabbed her and motioned her not to continue.

Xing'er was dumbfounded, only glanced at Wei Lianghong, stomped her feet, turned around and walked away resentfully.

Wei Lianghong then turned around and left satisfied.

Qin Han saw this scene not far away, and only felt that his chest was swollen, if it wasn't for his extra move, Su Yi would not have fallen to this point!

Su Yi took a deep breath and began to remove the lotus seed core, the lotus seed hole was small and thin, Su Yi could only take a needle to remove one by one, and one was pricked to the finger without paying attention, Su Yi hurriedly raised the bloody finger and put it in his mouth and sucked it, only to feel that his mouth seemed to be full of the bitter taste of the lotus seed core, and his tongue was bitter. Look at the lotus seeds full of baskets, I can't help but show a wry smile, I remember when I was a child learning a female worker, my father invited a master to teach her embroidery, at the beginning, the fingers were stiff, I don't know how many needles I suffered, I didn't expect that now I started to suffer needles again? If she didn't complain, if she was willing to work hard, would the days go back to when she was a child?

By the time Su Yi finished doing this, it was already noon, and as soon as she had eaten a few bites of food, Wei Lianghong urged her to clean all the dishes. Before I had time to rest, I started to wash the dishes and dishes.

Xing'er went to Zhongcui Palace to send melons and fruits back, and saw Su Yi sweating profusely cleaning the dishes, her fair face turned red because of the heat, and her white and tender hands were full of oil stains, and she couldn't help but feel a little distressed. Wei Lianghong, this dog thing, he must have done it on purpose! Where did Su Yi offend him?

Quickly ran to Su Yi, squatted in front of Su Yi, and wanted to wash Su Yi, Su Yi was hindered by the oil stains on her hands, and it was difficult to pull her, so she said anxiously: "Don't touch your hands, I'm almost done washing." You see you're sweating profusely, so let's go and rest for a while! ”

Xing'er pursed her lips and looked at Su Yi unhappily, and said angrily: "What about me, look at the sweat on your head, on such a hot day, but let you do this alone, what about the others?" Are they all dead? ”

After speaking, he picked up a handkerchief from under his arm to wipe the sweat from Su Yi's cheeks.

Su Yi hooked her lips and showed a reassuring smile: "It's okay for me, don't worry about me." Go and rest! ”

"Is that dog that doesn't allow anyone to help you?" Apricot took a sip and scolded.

"Shhhhh......h ”

"Hmph...... I'm not afraid! Apricot said indignantly.

Su Yi smiled and said helplessly: "I know you're not afraid, I'm not afraid, at most, he just asked me to work, didn't he never do it in Xinzheku?" You forget, I'm no longer the eldest lady of the Shen family. ”

"I'll go and ask the fifth elder brother to help you." Xing'er said suddenly, stood up and was about to go out.

Su Yi hurriedly stopped: "Don't go." ”

Seeing Xing'er staring at her with two big eyes, she said softly: "He is dissatisfied with me now, and he will punish me to do some work, but if you go to the fifth elder brother, he will only feel that we are putting pressure on him, even if he spares me now, I am afraid that it will become worse in the future." If you are truly good for me, do not go. ”

Xing'er stopped, but she was still angry: "But I feel sorry for you." ”

Su Yi hooked her lips and smiled, and said softly: "I know, I am very happy to have your heart." It's so hot, let's go back to the house and rest! ”

Xing'er reluctantly turned around and left.

The moonlight is hazy, the stars are shining, and the entire Forbidden City is shrouded in a dark night, and the glazed palace lights are hung high, rendering the night picturesquely.

Su Yi rubbed her sore waist, and then slowly walked out of the imperial dining room, a breeze struck, the sticky and wet feeling on her body dissipated, and her clothes no longer clinged to her skin, becoming comfortable, and the sultry irritability in her heart went down most of the time after the evening breeze, she looked at the moon in the sky, only to feel that the thin clouds and mist seemed to wrap her heart, and she no longer wanted to go back to the house to rest like this, her body was tired, but her heart was unusually clear, and she just wanted to step on the moon. Then he walked along the direction of the moon.

After walking for a long time, I saw several figures coming from a distance, there were eunuchs carrying sheep's horn lamps to lead the way in front, the moonlight was bright, although there was a distance, Su Yi had seen the clothes of the people, so he understood a rough idea, it seemed that Xu was the adult who entered the palace to face the saint, so he stood behind the stone lion to avoid, and heard the footsteps of everyone slowly passing by her, so he came out, but he did not turn around to look at the group of people, and walked straight forward.

After walking a few steps, I thought that if I went down, I didn't know who I would meet, the palace was strictly forbidden in the middle of the night, and wouldn't it be worse if I was seen and punished for a crime, so I thought about it, so I stopped, turned around and thought about going back. But this turn made her stunned!

A man in an official uniform, with a face like a crown of jade and eyes like stars, was looking at her affectionately, who was it not Gu Yanzhao?

A warm current suddenly rose from the bottom of my heart, surprised and happy, sweet and sour, and I was stunned for a while. She opened a pair of bright eyes, looked at him in disbelief, and saw him wrapped in the moonlight, surrounded by brilliance, as if illusory, half-ringing, Fang shook his head, and a self-deprecating smile hooked up on his lips: "Am I tired and confused?" I dreamed. ”

Gu Yanzhao felt a lot of pity in his heart, because Long Live Lord was busy with business today, he went off a little late, he didn't want to walk here but smelled an elegant fragrance from a distance, and in the moonlight, he found that the person hidden behind the stone lion was the woman he had been thinking about for a long time, obviously he had already walked over, but he found an excuse to go and return, just to meet her and comfort his lovesickness.

Seeing her thin figure, knowing that she had suffered a lot, her heart was sour and she only felt sharp pain like a needle prick, but she didn't know how to speak, hearing her say this, Fang came back to her senses and said softly: "You didn't dream, it's me, Gu Yanzhao." ”

The warm and cold voice sounded, Su Yi suddenly raised her eyes, looked at the man, a pair of sheared eyes immediately became dazzling, confusion turned into joy, she opened her lips and smiled, the tears in her eyes were dazzling, Gu Yanzhao saw her smile sadly, shining in the moonlight, dazzling, her heart was pounding, it was difficult to hold herself, she stepped forward to hug her, Su Yi felt his warm and thick chest, remembered the grievances in her heart for many days, tears flowed down, Gu Yanzhao's chest was burned by her warm tears, and her heart ached, Such a woman should have been cared for and cherished by him, but now she was trapped in the deep palace and could not do anything, she felt guilty and annoyed, and coaxed in a low voice: "I'm useless, let you suffer." ”

As soon as Su Yi saw him, his heart seemed to fly up to the clouds, and he was allowed to hold him, but now that he said this, a misty heart was very clear at the moment, and it was really inappropriate for them to forget to hug each other at this moment, so he gently pushed him away and said astringently: "It's not good for people to see it." ”

When Gu Yanzhao heard her say this, his heart was full of pain, he held her hand, and said in a dumb voice: "Are you blaming me?" ”

Su Yi didn't speak, she only lowered her head and wiped her tears silently, Gu Yanzhao saw that she was silent, thinking that she was blaming in her heart, her chest stagnated, and said: "Su Yi, it's me who is sorry for you, I'm incompetent, seeing that you are suffering but powerless to change, you resent me, hate me, and I deserve it!" After speaking, he grabbed Su Yi's hand and bracketed it to his cheek, and said angrily: "You hit me!" ”

Su Yi was caught by him and scolded him, shocked, suddenly broke away from his hand, and muttered, "Do you want me to be sad?" Don't you think I've shed enough tears? Before the sentence was finished, the tears had already slipped down her face, Gu Yanzhao saw that she wanted to cry, a small face with pear blossoms and rain, so pitiful, her heart had already set off turbulent waves, pity and remorse, and wanted to wipe away her tears, but her hand was raised but hung down, and she said bitterly: "I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, you don't have to cry anymore." I blame myself, I say you blame me, it's my own blame, every time I think of you suffering in the palace, my heart is painful, but I can't do anything, I don't blame you, I blame myself, I blame myself for not having the ability, and I can't even protect my beloved. ”

Su Yi saw that he was in pain, and her heart was sad, they finally met, why torture each other like this, she wiped the tears on her face, put away the sourness in her heart, Yang showed a bright smile at him, and said softly: "I'm not blaming you, I should have this catastrophe in my own life, no one complains, maybe this is the grace of God, the blessing of the blessing depends on it, and the blessing of the disaster lurks." ”

Seeing that Gu Yanzhao was still looking at her silently, he held his hand and said softly: "I really don't blame you, you don't know how happy I am because I know you, my father is in prison, everyone avoids me, only you are not abandoning me, you tried to rescue us outside, I know that I don't blame you at all, on the contrary, I am very glad and grateful to God for letting me meet you." After speaking, a hand touched his cheek and said distressedly, "Does it hurt?" Gu Yanzhao was overjoyed when he heard this, grabbed her hand, smiled, and said, "It doesn't hurt." ”

Su Yi hooked her lips and smiled, and took out a purse from the bag on her waist, which she embroidered a few days ago, she had been thinking about finding a chance for Xing'er to bring it to him, but she didn't expect to meet him, so it was better, she handed the purse to him, and whispered, "This is for you, I'...... I embroidered it with my hand. After saying a word, she didn't dare to look up at him, the first time she sent something to a man, she was very shy in her heart, and it was easy to muster up the courage to say this, but she didn't dare to look at his reaction again.

Gu Yanzhao saw that her cheeks were red, and she was drunk in the moonlight, and her heart was already throbbing, and she knew that she had embroidered it herself, so she was even more overjoyed, so she hurriedly took it, held it in her hand, and smiled. This is the first time, she gave him something with her own hands, and she embroidered it with a needle and a thread, this purse, this is the only one in heaven and earth, so how can he not be happy?

Su Yi was ashamed in his heart, Gu Yanzhao was about to say something, but he saw a few palace lights on the corner in the distance, and shouted in his heart, he still had many words to say to her, but he had to be separated, Su Yi saw his solemn expression, and also followed his gaze, his heart sank, and he said reluctantly: "You should go, I should go back too." ”

Gu Yanzhao looked at her eyes with a lonely look, her lips were about to be opened, she looked delicate and pitiful, and she was even more reluctant in her heart, it can be seen that the palace lamp is getting closer and closer, but she can no longer stay, so she is ruthless and said: "You wait for me, I will definitely save you from the palace." After speaking, he glanced at Su Yi affectionately, turned around and wanted to go, but heard Su Yi suddenly say, "Please go and see your father more." Gu Yanzhao nodded, stared at her a few more times, and left reluctantly.

Seeing that his figure almost blended into the dark night, Su Yi sighed and walked towards the residence.
