Chapter 33 Leaving Beijing and meeting Xue Chengxi by chance
Li Huaishu sat in front of Xue Mingcan's bed all night, and only left when it was about to dawn.
Xue Mingcan had been waiting for Li Huaishu all morning, waiting to say goodbye to him. But Li Huaishu was so busy that she didn't see him all morning.
She asked the housekeeper to help her find a place for her to cremate Ye Rong. The housekeeper had already received Li Huaishu's orders, no matter whether Xue Mingcan wanted to bury or cremate Ye Rong, he could arrange it properly.
Xue Mingcan cremated Ye Rong outside the city, and there was no funeral ceremony, only she knelt there alone. For Ye Rong, this is enough.
That night, Xue Mingcan made a table of meals and waited for a long, long time before waiting for Li Huaishu. Li Huaishu exclaimed: "You are ......"
"Thank you." Xue Mingcan smiled, the sadness in his eyes still not dissipated, "If you help me so much, I'm afraid one table of meals is not enough." But now, I can't come up with any other thank-you gifts. ”
The dishes were already cold, and the subordinates consciously took them to heat. Li Huaishu had already had dinner, but it didn't matter.
"I forgot to ask you why you came here suddenly that day."
"You know, my family has some industries in the capital, and I went out to run errands that day, and I happened to meet them." Li Huaishu said.
A person who is extremely busy every day, has some industries in the capital, and his surname is Li. Xue Mingcan knew that there was a guess, but she didn't want to guess, what did this mean?
"Tomorrow, I'm going back to Yuezhou with Master's ashes." Xue Mingcan said, "This meal, in addition to thanks, there is also a farewell. ”
Li Huaishu put down his chopsticks: "Can't you wait until you get better before leaving?" ”
Sickness? The doctor invited by Li Huaishu said that Xue Mingcan was too cold. There's nothing wrong with that. But the doctor didn't know that it wasn't simply cold. Xue Mingcan had heard Ye Rong tell some stories about the characters in the rivers and lakes, and she herself knew that the sudden cold was not caused by a rain. The doctor may have thought it was her chronic illness, but she knew very well that it was because the palm she had hit that day was a yin and yang palm.
Yin and Yang Palm is an extraterritorial kung fu, and it is said that it has not appeared on the rivers and lakes for more than ten years. Ye Rong's enemy is a master of the rivers and lakes who can use the Yin Yang Palm.
Xue Mingcan was hit by the Yin Yang palm, and the cold qi in his body gathered and was difficult to disperse, and the medicine stone could not be completely cured. She will be accompanied by cold illness in the future, how can the illness be cured?
"I don't want to wait any longer."
Li Huaishu didn't persuade again, interjected the topic, and talked to Xue Mingcan about the travelogue. Xue Mingcan became interested, talked a lot, and the meal was very satisfying.
The next day, Xue Mingcan left after breakfast. They already said goodbye to each other last night, and they don't have to wait for Li Huaishu today.
She rode out of the capital on horseback, because she was not feeling well, and walked slowly. Who knows, not long after leaving the capital, she met her cousin Xue Chengxi.
Xue Chengxi took a break today and asked a friend to go fishing. I never thought that I would see Xue Mingcan, who was riding a horse alone and pale, in the suburbs of Beijing. He was puzzled in his heart, said goodbye to his friends for the time being, and went to ask, "Mingcan?" Why are you here? Didn't you go to Yuezhou with Mr. Ye? Why is your face so bad? ”
Xue Mingcan briefly talked about Ye Rong's death by the enemy, and showed Xue Chengxi that he wanted to take Ye Rong's ashes back to Yuezhou.
Xue Chengxi was surprised and regretted. He has always respected Ye Rong and thinks that he is a rare capable person. It is truly deplorable that such a brilliant hermit should fall like this.
"I didn't expect Mr. Ye to ...... God is jealous of talent. He sighed and looked at Xue Mingcan's haggard face, "You should be sick like this." Something so big happened, why don't you go home? It's better to get home than to trouble friends. The family will definitely bury Mr. Ye well. ”
"I didn't think about it that much, I just wanted to take my husband back to Yuezhou."
"Mingcan, Mr. Ye's kindness to you is to the Xue family's kindness, you can't help but tell us about such a big thing. You come home with me, and my grandfather will arrange everything. ”
What Xue Chengxi said was reasonable, and Xue Mingcan knew that he was wrong. She said in her heart that the family respected her husband and should indeed let them know about it. Then he went home, and then went to the Choya Mountain.
Xue Mingcan returned home, and the Xue family was as surprised by this matter as Xue Chengxi. Seeing that Xue Can's face was not good, Hua Shi invited a doctor and asked her to rest well, and Xue Hui and Xue Chuan would both take care of Ye Rong's affairs.
Xue Mingcan was actually too tired to do it, and when he heard Hua's gentle words, he looked at her with a little stupid eyes. It's been more than a decade since I've heard Fahrenheit soothe her so gently. Mother's voice was like a gurgling spring water, flowing slowly, and Xue Mingcan gradually fell asleep.
When she woke up, there was no one in the room. Ye Rong's baggage was placed on the table, and his relics were all in the baggage. From Ye Rong's death to the present, she has never opened this burden.
There were only two sets of clothes in the baggage, some silver taels, and then a young man's mask of exquisite workmanship. This mask was made by hand in the spring of last year.
At that time, Xue Mingcan saw the practice of masks in the book, and was full of interest to collect materials and mess with them. The first mask was broken. Ye Rong pointed out her problems and guided her to make the current mask. Ye Rong will always be like this, she will not recite the wrong name of the herb and make a bad mask, and she will not be harsh at her, and she will not even say a word of reproach to her.
"If you do it wrong, just redo it."
All the mistakes and mistakes are not worth mentioning in front of him, and he guides her to correct her mistakes and do the right thing on the right path.
Xue Mingcan took out a wooden box from the room and put the mask inside. After thinking about it, he put the purse containing Qi Wenzhen's green silk together.
