Chapter 72: Broken Silver Hairpin
It was an extremely spacious carriage, with a touch of luxury in its quaintness. In addition to the seats, there was a small case in the middle, with a small stove boiling water, and a tea tray with an antique pot of cups.
Yang Che was sitting opposite him, and Tan Yin was oblique to him.
Strands of hair clinged to the scalp, and water stains ran down the eyes, cheeks, and jaws, dripping onto wet clothes.
The thick eyelashes were stained with water droplets, and the big smart eyes were like empty mountains and rain, misty and silent.
The clothes were clinging to the slender body, Yang Che glanced at it and immediately looked away, picked up the coat that was placed aside and covered her.
He gave her a towel again, but when she didn't answer, Mu Mu sat in a daze and didn't move. So he took a towel and wiped her head and face, but she was still like a stake.
I could only hear the clatter of horses stepping on bluestone slabs and the rolling of wheels.
Halfway through the walk, the carriage seemed to have tripped over something, one stumbled, both of them leaned forward, Tan Yin even slipped out, and hit the carriage frame, Yang Che grabbed her, helped her sit down, and saw that her forehead was bleeding.
The pain seemed to wake her up, and Tan Yin picked up a handkerchief to cover the wound.
"What's the matter? Let me see. Yang Che leaned slightly, wanting to take away her hand covering the wound.
Tan Yin flashed, avoided his hand, and said lightly: "It's nothing, I shed a little blood, I'll be fine later." ”
Yang Che stopped, and saw that although her expression was indifferent, she felt that she had finally come back to life.
picked up the octagonal teapot, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, "This is black tea from Yunnan, it is very stomach-warming." ”
Tan Yin took the tea and took a sip, put down the teacup and continued to be silent. She is very quiet, completely different from the lively and even chirping of the past.
The carriage continued to jolt forward, Tan Yin didn't ask or care where it was going, anyway, whoever could go.
……
It took about half an hour to finally reach the destination.
I got out of the carriage and entered a garden through a side door. The garden is ingenious and changes the scenery step by step. After walking a long way, I saw a lake in front of me, and a small building with carved beams and paintings stood far away in the lake, connected with the nine-curved bridge on the shore.
After walking across the Jiuqu Bridge and entering the small building, several maids saw Yang Che bring in a chicken girl with soup, but they were not surprised, which showed that they were well-trained and dealt with properly.
"Are you girls there?"
"Back to Master Hou, the girl is out."
"Qi'er, go find your girl's clean clothes, and then boil some hot ginger tea. Miao'er, take us up. ”
The two maids answered, and Miao'er led the way.
The main room on the third floor is spacious and bright, and the decoration is elegant and beautiful.
Entering the door is a picture of Li Qiao's hundred flowers scroll screen, turning the screen is the outer room, separated from the inside by the Salo cloud brocade curtain, and the bed can be vaguely seen.
The ground is covered with a large carpet of entwined grape pattern Western Regions, and a half-person tall plum vase in the southeast corner is inserted with a number of flower branches. In front of the west window of the south wall, there is an incense table, on which the black gold incense burner burns sandalwood. In front of the east window of the south wall, there is a mica backrest screen. In the middle of the outer room is a table and four chairs. On the west wall, there is a picture of a beautiful woman under the moon, which was made by Wang Yishou, a great family in the world.
Tan Yin sat down at the table and sneezed several times in a row, and the maid hurriedly poured tea for her. After a while, Qi'er came over with a set of gorgeous clothes, but Tan Yin was still as silent as an old monk.
"I'll go out first, Miao'er, you change her clothes."
Miao'er stepped forward to change her clothes, just touched her cold arm, and called: "Oh, girl, quickly take off your clothes, you will get cold like this." ”
Being called by her like this, Tan Yin reacted, and saw that she was stripping herself of clothes, so she hurriedly stopped: "I'll come by myself." ”
Without waiting for Miao'er to reply, he picked up his shirt and walked inside. The clothes fit well, and of course they look much better than the ones you usually wear.
Look at this room, hanging on the wall, laying on the ground, placing on the table, eating and wearing, there are rare goods everywhere, and I don't know whose lady's boudoir is.
Tan Yin changed her clothes and went out, Qi'er had already returned, and Miao'er smiled: "The girl looks so good in this dress." ”
The two wonderful maids were picturesque, very beautiful, well-behaved, and articulate, and the young ladies of ordinary large families could not win, but they were only maids, and they did not know what kind of person their master was.
Tan Yin pulled a smile and said, "Thank you two sisters." ”
"The girl drank this bowl of ginger soup first, sweated to drive away the cold, and then I combed the girl's hair." Miao'er greeted. Compared with Qi'er, she smiled without saying a word, which was more amiable.
After drinking the ginger soup, the whole body slowly warmed up and warmed up a lot, but I was a little sleepy.
Miao'er combed her hair again, untied her hair, and looked at the rose silver hairpin on the table, Tan Yin's heart tingled, and she held the hairpin tightly before putting it down for a long time.
Miao'er was skillful, and after a while, she combed her hair, put it on a bun, and was about to insert it with a silver hairpin, "Alas, why is it broken?" ”
Tan Yin replied: "Originally, there was a deep mark in the middle of the silver hairpin, but now it is completely broken, I don't know if Sister Miao'er has a wooden hairpin?" ”
Miao'er looked at the silver hairpin and chuckled: "I have a lot of golden hairpins and hostas here, but there are no wooden hairpins, I'll bring you a hosta." ”
The clothes of the two maids were silk and satin, and the jewelry was gold and jade jewelry, and there were not even silver hairpins, let alone wooden hairpins.
Tan Yin hurriedly said: "Thank you Sister Miao'er, no need, you can use the head rope to tie it tightly for me!" ”
Miao'er wanted to persuade again, but seeing that her expression was indifferent and firm, she knew that it was useless to say more, so she did as she said.
Tan Yin picked up the rose silver hairpin, looked at the fine marks on the rose, and rubbed it for a long time.
Maybe the words she heard today were too frightening, maybe it was because her body was weak after getting cold, maybe it was because her whole body was warm after drinking ginger soup, Tan Yin wanted to sleep a little, and she sat there like a chicken pecking rice.
"Girl, go to bed! Nourish the spirit. ”
Tan Yin wanted to refuse, but was led to the bedroom by Miao'er in a daze.
……
I don't know how long I slept, but I was half asleep in a daze, and I looked at two people talking outside the curtain.
"Who is this girl, why do you have to work so hard?" A silky voice.
Yang Che didn't answer for a long time, seeing that she continued to stare at him, as if she couldn't hear the answer, she didn't stop, "She has a favor with me." ”
"When will such a little girl be kind to you?"
"Serendipity." Yang Che said vaguely.
"So what's going on today?"
"Something happened."
"What will happen to such a young girl! It's always just a love affair, is it ......" she chuckled, her eyes rolling.
"Where do you want to go, her sweetheart is a new science and technology master." Yang Che frowned.
She laughed out loud, "It's a new science and technology practitioner again!" made her so depressed, it can be seen that she is a negative heart. If the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come, and this girl is also brainless. ”
"Can people compare with you! You have passed more things in a month than others in their lives, she grew up in the township since she was a child, her parents are pampered, and she is simple-minded, she always wants to grow old with her childhood sweetheart, and she has already talked about marriage, who knows......."
"Oh, that's great, if she really married that sweetheart, it would be really miserable."
She paused and continued: "This man spoke flatteringly before marriage, and he couldn't wait to pluck the moon in the sky for you, after this marriage, you have to be kneaded by him at will, rubbed and pinched and flattened to let him, but now he is just sad for a while, if you really marry him, then you can't be sad for a lifetime." ”
Yang Che leaned back in the chair, raised his eyebrows and said, "She can't listen to this truth now." ”
"There are living examples, the last Zhou Tanhua said that he lived up to his wife, married Miss Li Shilang's family and became a wife, and in the past two years, he has been on the rise, and he has already been from the fifth grade."
Hearing him mention Zhou Tanhua, Yang Che frowned in disgust and said, "Zi Jian Shen is ashamed to be in the top three with him, what's wrong with him." ”
"Miss Li is very generous, as a daughter, she is willing to live as a wife, and she is commensurate with the women and sisters of the countryside, and everyone praises her for her virtue. But for more than a year, this virtuous Miss Li gave birth to a big fat son, but the wife had a boy in May, and the doctor said that she hurt her body and could not give birth again. ”
Yang Che sneered.
"How sad can this girl be? Zhou Tanhua's original match is heartbreaking. No amount of thought can withstand time, just wait for the wounded heart to scab. ”
"It's good to have a scab, it's good to have a scab." Yang Che lowered his head and sighed lightly.
Seeing him look down and sigh softly, she bit her lip, panicked in her heart, turned her head to look at the lake in the distance, the slanting wind and drizzle made people return, who did they belong to!
