Chapter 32: Visiting the Lantern Festival Together
After Yusheng's incident, just as Xia Chutao expected, the entire General's Mansion quieted down.
Fu Rin did treat this matter as if it was done by Yusheng, the person was dead, and the others could not be investigated, so they could only stop it.
It is rumored in the house that Fang Xiaoniang mourned and cried after losing a personal maid, and even fell ill on the bed, and allocated a lot of money to Yusheng's family, and settled Yusheng's family, all saying that Fang Xiaoniang was a good master.
"It's really disgusting."
Cui Yan, who was holding the thread for Xia Chutao, couldn't help but stick out her tongue and make a retching expression.
When I went to the well to fetch water today, I heard several servants say that Broken Jade is a good master, she really can't bear to come back and tell Xia Chutao, and there is no good word about Broken Jade in her mouth.
"You can only say that in front of me. Don't chew the root of your tongue everywhere, and then you will leave someone else behind. ”
Xia Chutao, who was embroidering things, didn't stop this girl from breaking her mouth in front of her, after all, she was not so relieved about this matter as she thought on the surface.
Fu Rin said that he would use this matter to clear the general's mansion, but there has been no movement until now. Whether this is an explanation for herself or not, she also doesn't know.
"Oops."
Just thinking about it, the needle in his hand was crooked, and it was directly stuck on Xia Chutao's finger. After only a short while, a large bead of blood had already rolled out of his fingertips.
Xia Chutao frowned and looked at it, after all, ten fingers connected to the heart, it really hurt. Xia Chutao hurriedly put her fingers into her mouth and swallowed it, wanting to relieve the pain a little.
"Little lady, don't embroider, how many times have you pierced yourself in the past few days."
Seeing this, Cui Yan hurriedly took down the embroidery cloth in Xia Chutao's hand, but she could see that Xia Chutao was not the material of this piece at all.
Although there are really few ladies who don't understand female celebrities, she doesn't think there is anything.
"We won't, I don't have to force myself to learn this."
Cui Yan looked at Xia Chutao's hand, and if she looked closely, she could see that the hole she had pierced a few days ago was not complete, which was really distressing.
"I'm just bored to pass the time."
Xia Chutao's heart was also very helpless, in such a space-time structure, everything is limited, and no matter how much entertainment is compared to reality.
She was bored and learned, but found that she didn't seem to be the material for this piece at all.
"What? Did you get a finger pricked by a female worker? ”
I don't know when, Fu Rin just stood in front of him, his hands behind his back, and his tone was as indifferent as ever.
"I've seen the general, and the general is healthy."
Cui Yan hurriedly dropped the thread in his hand and hurriedly saluted Fu Rin.
Xia Chutao looked up, and for some reason, every time she saw Fu Rin's handsome and abnormal face, she felt that her heart was beating faster without obeying the call.
Since the last time the safflower incident, this is the first time Fu Rin has come to Xia Chutao, and I don't know what he did. Now it has appeared silently, which is really abrupt.
"Will.... The general is coming. ”
Xia Chutao panicked, she looked at her lame stitching, and hurriedly wanted to hide the embroidered cloth behind her, so as not to make Fu Rin laugh at herself.
But where can she be faster than Fu Rin's hand, Fu Rin just stepped forward and took a step, and was pulled by Fu Rin without paying attention.
Fu Rin squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the embroidery pattern on the embroidered cloth, and there seemed to be a trace of embarrassment between his eyebrows, but just like that, he was still captured by the peach at the beginning of summer.
Xia Chu Momo: I knew it!!
She was secretly unhappy, obviously she just didn't want to show him, and he had to rob it.
"Uh...."Fu Rin thought for a moment, and then opened his mouth.
"Peach's duck embroidered very well, good, very.... Lifelike. ”
Fu Rin said it very hard, and I don't know how long it took me to think of such an adjective.
"Poofha! Duck! Absolutely! ”
"Silly general, this is a mandarin duck!"
"It's over hahahaha, little peach's face is green hahahaha."
The corners of Xia Chutao's mouth twitched, he held his forehead, and said to Fu Rin,
"The general doesn't have to force himself so much, this is a mandarin duck."
"Oh.... This is, Mandarin Duck. Fu Rin looked at the embroidered cloth and suddenly realized, as if he had only seen it by Xia Chutao's mention.
He nodded, silently put down the embroidered cloth in his hand, and did not say anything more.
Xia Chutao glanced at the twisting and twisting position, and for a moment really wanted to pick up the scissors on the side and reamed it directly.
"If Tao'er feels bored, I'll take you out for a walk."
Fu Rin didn't seem to know what to say for a while, so he made a proposal.
Xia Chutao didn't dare to attack in front of Fu Rin, and silently put away his lame cultivation, and then asked lazily.
"Where can the general take me?"
"I heard that tonight, there is a lantern festival." Fu Rin thought about it for a while, and then said this, as if the lantern would be a very foreign thing to him.
"Yes, yes, there is a lantern festival tonight!" Cui Yan on the side hurriedly interjected, but he looked more excited than anyone else.
"The general can take Xiao Niang there, it seems that Xiao Niang hasn't gone out for a walk since she entered the door."
This is true, Xia Chutao really hasn't been out since she entered the mansion and became Fu Rin's concubine. The scope of the General's Mansion is very large, but it is more or less slowly finished by the summer peach day by day, and there is no freshness at all.
Fu Rin's proposal really poked Xia Chutao's heart, and she felt a little itchy when she thought about it.
"Well, do you want to go?"
Fu Rin felt that what Cui Yan said was reasonable, he really hadn't taken Xia Chutao out to walk through, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt a little wronged by her.
"Go, why not."
Xia Chutao's heart was still cheering, but on the surface, he was still pretending to be reserved.
"The general took me there, and I was naturally willing to go."
"Then Cuiyan, you can take the little lady to freshen up and prepare to go out."
"Yes."
Cui Yan happily helped Xia Chu Peach to put on makeup.
About half an hour later, Xia Chutao happily followed Fu Rin to the side door of the General's Mansion.
Since it is a trip to the Lantern Festival, today's summer peach is dressed lightly.
I saw her long black hair coiled into a bun one by one, the jade hairpin was loose, and then a golden step was inserted, the bright yellow Luo skirt was dressed, and the emerald ribbon was tied around the waist, which looked playful and cute, and the sparkling flow between the eyebrows, bright and moving.
"Isn't Madame going?"
At this time, at the beginning of the summer, Tao raised his eyes to search, only to find that there was no figure of Man Chun in the crowd, and he remembered that Fu Rin had said before that Man Chun didn't seem to like such a lively event.
After knowing it in her heart, Xia Chutao silently closed her mouth.
"Just you and me today, she is a little unwell in the spring." Fu Rin answered Xia Chutao's doubts.
"A while ago, like you, I was infected with the wind chill and should not go out."
Xia Chutao has heard of this, not only himself a while ago, but many people in the mansion were infected with the wind and cold, including the one from Xiyuefang.
Xia Chutao silently glanced at the heavily armed guards behind him, and weakly opened his mouth to Fu Rin.
"Since it's a lantern festival, you don't have to let so many guards follow... Too flamboyant. ”
Fu Rin looked down at Xia Chutao, seemed to think for a while, and finally nodded.
"If you don't like to follow, don't follow it."
Xia Chutao just felt that Fu Rin, as the general of Zhenguo, had some excellent skills, but it would not be so exaggerated to go to a lantern party, and Fu Rin would be able to solve anything he encountered.
It really doesn't work.... She's tough again, isn't she?
After going out, Fu Rin and Xia Chutao were sent to the downtown area by a special carriage.
In fact, the General's Mansion is already in the downtown area, and there are a lot of people coming and going.
Xia Chutao looked at the bustling city outside, and couldn't help but show a look of yearning on her face.
"What's wrong?"
Fu Rin, who was sitting on the side of the carriage, couldn't help but ask when he saw Xia Chutao so happy.
"I don't know how you feel every time you see such a prosperous scene, General?"
Xia Chutao originally thought that this was a good question for Fu Rin, after all, it was the country he personally protected. But what he didn't expect was that Fu Rin's face sank, and he said without any emotion in his voice.
"The people live and work in peace and contentment, and all industries are naturally what I want. It's just that.... This prosperity may not be what you see. ”
After speaking, Fu Rin's eyes flowed darkly, and he silently glanced out, such a look was not necessarily happy.
Xia Chutao only reacted at this time, it seems that he has never taken the identity of Fu Rin Zhenguo General seriously. It's just that I naturally feel very majestic, and probably there are a lot of Fu Rin's last resorts behind this.
"Don't think about it, the general took me out today, but you have to take me to play."
Xia Chutao smiled, his eyes seemed to be a clear spring, extremely clear, coupled with the broken phosphorescence refracted under the reflection of the lights outside, it looked particularly moving.
Fu Rin looked stunned, as if he felt his heart move involuntarily.
"Well, I'm going to take you for fun."
Fu Rin came back to his senses for a while, and only then did he take his gaze back when Xia Chutao's expectant gaze fell on him. The hand on the knee involuntarily retracted, put it away, and put it away.
At the shouting of the coachman, the carriage finally stopped.
Xia Chutao took the lead in stepping on the stool and got out of the car, looked at Fu Rin who came out unhurriedly, and shouted excitedly to Fu Rin,
"Fu Rin, come down quickly, there are a lot of fun things over there."
Fu Rin's figure was stiff, and he looked at Xia Chutao fixedly, and only asked a question after a while.
"You called me, what?"
