Chapter 66: The Arrival of Senior Brother
The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, but the weather was still very hot and changeable.
Mother Zhao carefully closed the window, took advantage of this to look up at the sky, and said worriedly: "Madam, I'm afraid it's going to rain this day." ”
Liang Yue's body was bulky, and the weather was hot, so she simply didn't bother to move, so she just walked around the house, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her head. Hearing Zhao's mother's words, she responded: "I think so, it's very hot and humid this day, if it rains, I'm afraid it won't be small." ”
The little maid Qinglian followed Liangyue every step of the way, fanning her carefully, seeing that Liangyue was sweating again, she hurriedly handed over a clean handkerchief, and was obedient without saying a word.
Liang Yue told her to stop, and called Mother Zhao again: "Mother Zhao, don't be busy, it's getting dark, has Su Yi come back?" ”
Mother Zhao said: "Where can I be, the young master said that he would come back tonight, but he was afraid that it would rain on the road, and he was afraid that he would not be able to come back for a while." Young lady, are you hungry? ”
Liang Yue shook her head, a little worried: "It's better not to call him back, the road is slippery on rainy days, even if it's a carriage, it's not safe." ”
Mother Zhao smiled and comforted her: "With the young lady's heart, the young master will definitely be able to rush back before the rain, if you don't believe it, just look at it!" ”
Liang Yue obviously didn't believe it, but when Zhao's mother was coaxing her to be happy, she glanced back and saw that Qinglian was also snickering with her head down, so she couldn't help but ask curiously: "Qinglian, what is it that deserves your pleasure so much?" ”
Qinglian glanced at Mother Zhao and smiled at Liang Yue: "The slave is happy because the slave seems to have heard movement outside, and I think the young master is back." ”
"Really?" Liangyue also pricked up her ears and listened carefully, but since she was pregnant, the whole person was a little groggy, especially in the last few months, she became cumbersome and inconvenient, not to mention, even her ear and eyesight seemed to have decreased a little, and she was depressed about it before, but Zhao's mother said that she was the first child, and some changes were normal, and it would be good to wait for the child to be born. So she listened with bated breath for a while, and found that she hadn't heard anything else except for some wind outside, so she lazily half lay on the chaise longue and simply gave up.
She felt a little sleepy, so she closed her eyes slightly, intending to rest for a while.
As soon as I closed my eyes like this, I didn't expect to fall asleep.
Qinglian heard the sound of footsteps from far and near outside, and knew that it was the young master who had returned, and hurriedly said to Liangyue: "Young lady, you are not ...... in vain" But before she finished speaking, she found that her young lady was actually lying like this, quietly asleep.
"Mother Zhao, Mother Zhao, young lady, she is asleep." Qinglian's voice was lowered.
Su Yi happened to walk in and found that the room was bright, but it was very quiet, so he couldn't help but relax and walked into the inner room slowly.
Qinglian's eyes were sharp, and when she saw Su Yi coming in, she was afraid that he would disturb Liang Yue, so she hurriedly waved her hand at him and whispered: "The young master is back, the young lady has been waiting for you to come back and eat together, but I fell asleep just now, and I am still asleep." ”
Mother Zhao originally wanted to put on a dress for Liangyue, but it was already windy outside, and it looked like it was about to rain. Su Yi walked over and motioned to Zhao's mother to bring the dinner, and then he bent down and carefully hugged Liangyue, Qinglian saw this and hurriedly went over to make the mattress, confirming that the bed was soft and harmonious, and then asked him to put the person down.
Mother Zhao and Qinglian brought dinner, and when they saw that Liang Yue hadn't woken up yet, they stood aside and waited, but Su Yi asked her two to go down to eat first, and she stayed by the bed, quietly watching Liang Yue fall asleep.
The wind outside suddenly became louder, and a branch in the courtyard was broken by the wind, making a crackling sound, although there was not much movement, but Liang Yue was woken up, and as soon as she opened her eyes, Su Yi was standing next to her.
"You're back?" Liang Yue tilted her head to look at him, her eyebrows crooked with a smile.
"Hmm. I said that I came back to eat with you. Su Yi took her hand, dropped a kiss on the back of her hand, and asked her softly, "Do you want to get up to eat?" Or do I feed you? ”
Liang Yue asked him to sit up with him, shook his head and said, "I'm not at the point where I can't move, I'm going to feed now, when do I have to feed it." ”
Su Yi saw that she was a little clumsy when she got up and got out of bed, and couldn't bear her to be tired, so she simply picked her up by the waist and walked to the table, only to ask her to land and help her sit down.
Liang Yue was helpless and explained to him: "Mother Zhao said that every woman is the same at this time, and the more this time, the more she should move more, and it is good for the child and me." Like you, you don't even want me to walk these few steps, then I will get used to it, and I'm afraid I won't even be able to walk. ”
Su Yi thought about it very seriously, nodded and said, "Although what Mother Zhao said makes sense, I look at you so ......"
"Huh? So what? Liang Yue stared at him and reminded, "You have to be cautious, I've not been in a good mood lately, and if I say the wrong thing, I won't see you if I'm unhappy." ”
Seeing her arrogant little appearance, Su Yi couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, I know, but I originally wanted to say that I was reluctant to see you work so hard." But since you said you don't want me to talk more, then don't talk about it, just listen to you. ”
Liang Yue thought about it for a while and changed her words: "Actually, you can still say nice things!" It's okay to say a little more. ”
The two of them were talking and laughing and eating, and suddenly heard the crackling sound outside, Zhao's mother came in with two hot teas, and said with a very happy face: "It's really right for the old slave, this rain is really timely, the young master only started to rain when he got home, and now it's cool and tight outside." ”
"It's raining." Liang Yue was very happy, and hurriedly called Zhao's mother, "Zhao's mother, hurry, quickly open the window, didn't you say it's cool outside?" Let the heat in this room dissipate quickly. ”
Without waiting for Zhao's mother to object, Su Yi spoke first: "Although there is some heat in the house, it is not unbearable." If you open the window, in case you blow a cold wind and get cold, then it will be unbearable. Well, if you really think this room is boring, then wait for us to finish eating, go to the small study for a while, and then ask Mother Zhao to open the window for ventilation, how about it? ”
Hearing him say this, where did Liang Yue still have something to say, and said a little depressedly: "I didn't find that you talked so much before, how do you feel that you have been talking more and more recently?" "It's just the same as Zhao's mother.
She didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence, but only dared to secretly complain in her heart.
Mother Zhao smiled on the side and spoke for Su Yi: "Young master, this is distressed young lady, you are more thoughtful than the old slave thought, the old slave wrote it down, and then open the window to let in the air, and then smoke it slightly with the incense you like, young lady, to ensure that you have a good night's sleep." ”
Liang Yue stuck out her tongue and squinted at Mother Zhao: "Okay, don't forget to tie a sachet on the bed curtain, the one I smelled yesterday." ”
Mother Zhao just smiled and responded.
The rain outside was menacing, and at the beginning it was pouring rain, and the sultry heat of the past few days was swept away, and the raindrops the size of beans fell to the ground, splashing with dust.
Heavy rain fell all night, the next morning, the sun slowly from behind the clouds to show half of the face, although the sky cleared, but this heavy rain seems to be overnight to eliminate the end of the summer heat, is the air suddenly fresh, the weather is not hot or cold, with a trace of coolness, let people breathe a breath of fresh air and feel refreshed, a change of the whole summer anxiety, even with people's mood is better.
Along with the good weather and good mood, there is also good news from Zhou's house.
"So fast? Just last night? Liang Yue couldn't help but be stunned when she listened to Xue Yirou's eloquent voice.
"No, I got the news early in the morning. Thanks to the Zhou family, they arranged for Wen Po and the doctor to be in the house before, otherwise the rain last night was so heavy, and Helan was born so suddenly, it would be scary to think about it. But fortunately, your aunt had the foresight to arrange it herself, and the Zhou family worked all night, until it was almost dawn, Helan was born, and the mother and daughter were safe. Xue Yirou was amazed as she spoke, and seemed to sigh with emotion, "Why do you feel that time is passing faster and faster?" In the blink of an eye, Helan has a child. As he spoke, he looked at Liang Yue's bulging belly again, and looked at it for a long time before he looked away and lay on the table as if he were boneless.
Liang Yue couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, time flies so fast." ”
It seems that in the blink of an eye, she has gone from being an unrestrained little girl to a gentle and quiet wife, and even a mother of a child.
Zhao's mother had just come back from the front yard, and it seemed that the Zhou family had sent someone to send the news, so Zhao's mother seemed very happy, and came in and asked Liangyue, "Young lady, the Zhou family is happy, and the mother and daughter are safe!" What kind of gifts do you think we will give? ”
Xue Yirou interjected: "It just so happens that I am also going over, it is better to carry you together, anyway, our relationship is here, and your body is inconvenient, Helan will not mind." ”
Mother Zhao looked at Liangyue and waited for her to speak.
Liang Yue thought for a while, nodded and said, "Then you can help me carry those few little clothes." However, the Su family still has to go to a personal gift, otherwise others will inevitably not say something when they see it. He said to Zhao's mother again, "Zhao's mother, go and pick a few suitable things in the warehouse, and follow Yirou together." ”
Zhao's mother answered and withdrew to pick up gifts.
Xue Yirou also stood up and said with a smile: "Sure enough, time can make people grow, think about where you cared about this before, I didn't expect that now you also have the appearance of being a housewife." ”
Liang Yue pursed her lips and smiled, but urged: "Okay, you go quickly, take a look at her child for me, and come back and talk to me carefully." ”
Xue Yirou snorted, and just raised her feet to leave, but was stopped by Liang Yue again: "Wait first-Qinglian, Qinglian!" ”
Qinglian heard the shout and hurriedly ran in, "What's the matter, young lady?" ”
Liang Yue said: "You go to the cabinet next to my bed and look for it, there is a wooden box, you can bring it to Miss Yirou." ”
Qinglian hurriedly went in to find it, and after a while, she came out with a wooden box and handed it to Xue Yirou.
Xue Yirou raised her eyebrows: "What is this?" ”
"I bought a small gift for Helan earlier, and I always wanted to give it to her personally, but you see, now that I'm like this, Su Yi won't let me go out, just this time you can help me take it with me." There was a hint of grief in Liang Yue's words.
Xue Yirou laughed, "Okay, I know, you can wait at home and wait until I come back and tell you." ”
Waiting for Xue Yirou to leave, Qinglian said: "Young lady, Qingzhu beside the young master said that the young master will not come back tonight, saying that there are some things to deal with on the dock, so you don't have to wait for him, and you will come back early tomorrow." ”
Liang Yue nodded: "Okay, I don't have to prepare his meals that night, and I don't want to eat either." ”
When Qinglian heard her say that she didn't want to eat, she suddenly became a little anxious: "How can this be done, young lady, as the saying goes, people are iron and rice are steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic." Besides, you don't want to eat alone now, just for the little master, even if you don't have the young master with you, you have to eat well. ”
Hearing the nagging, Liang Yue's head suddenly grew big, and she hurriedly raised her hand to surrender: "Alas, okay, I'm just casually saying, why are you so serious." At a young age, she was like Zhao's mother, and if she continues to nag like this, she will become a little old woman sooner or later, be careful that no one will want it in the future. ”
Qinglian pouted and said: "The slave is not nagging, as long as you are willing to eat well, the slave is willing to become a little old woman." ”
Liang Yue was amused by her, thinking that this little girl was really interesting.
The master and servant went to the garden for a long time, and when they saw that it was noon, Mother Zhao came back with a happy face, helped Liangyue back to the room, and talked about the situation on Helan's side.
After a while, Xue Yirou really came back again, asked Zhao's mother to add a pair of chopsticks to her, ate with Liangyue, and talked for a while, until Liangyue was a little sleepy, Xue Yirou stopped talking and got up to leave.
Liang Yue slept until the top of the moon, and when Zhao's mother came in and wanted to call her, she had already opened her eyes and woke up.
"It's getting dark." Liang Yue watched Zhao's mother light the lamp, felt a little hungry, and asked her for food. "I want to eat some light porridge, okay?"
Zhao's mother hurriedly responded and asked Qinglian to accompany her, while she wanted to go to the small kitchen to take a look. It's just that Qinglian hasn't shouted yet, but a figure flashed outside the door, which startled Zhao's mother, and quickly blocked Liangyue with her body, staring at the door, and asked loudly with courage: "Who is outside the door?!" ”
The figure outside the door stopped, and when he opened his mouth, it was a man's voice. "May I ask if it's a cool moon girl in there?"
This voice sounds ear-sounding, and calls Liangyue a girl, it must not be an acquaintance.
Mother Zhao and Liang Yue glanced at each other, Liang Yue patted Mother Zhao's hand to show comfort, and responded: "I am, dare to ask who is coming?" It's not a good habit to break into a private house at night. ”
The man outside the door seemed to laugh and replied, "Don't hide it, here is Mr. Wu's disciple outside the door, named Wu Feng." This time, I came here on the orders of my master to discuss some things with Senior Sister Liangyue. ”
Is it Master?
When Liang Yue heard this, she thought to herself, Master's surname is indeed true, but there are really not many people who know about Master's name and surname, this person not only knows Master, but also says that he is a disciple of Master, his name is Wu Feng?
Liang Yue suddenly remembered that Master seemed to have mentioned this person before. "Are you...... Kaede-chan? ”
