Chapter Ninety-Five: Imprints
"Madame, it's me!"
The man shouted several times before she realized that it was Zhou Ping's voice, and when she looked back, it was indeed that reassuring face.
"Zhou Ping......" Qiao Guan's whole person relaxed in an instant, as if he had been drained of strength, squatted softly, buried his head in his lap and cried.
Zhou Ping knelt down with a "plop", his head slammed on the ground, and said sadly: "Madam, my subordinates are derelict in their duties!" My subordinates didn't protect you—"
When Qiao Wan went to buy chestnut rice cakes, the people behind him asked him to move the car, delayed for a while, but he didn't expect to turn around Qiao Wan disappeared, he was almost scared to death, and he couldn't find her in the surrounding circle, so he went back to the house and called someone to look for him.
Look at this, don't let something happen, then he really doesn't have the face to see Zhou Yu alive......
Qiao Wan cried louder and louder, and the people around him stared at them curiously, thinking that he had made his daughter-in-law cry, and Zhou Ping stood there a little embarrassed.
"Ma'am, is something wrong?" He asked, leaning down.
Qiao Wan shook his head vigorously, took out a handkerchief and wiped his nose and tears, and his voice was hoarse, "No, let's go back." ”
is really as Cao Cao said, if this matter is big, then the old relationship between her and Cao Cao will be known to everyone. She didn't care what others thought, but she couldn't ignore Zhou Yu's reputation.
As for Cao Cao's appearance in Wu County, she could only keep silent. Zhou Yu hasn't come back after all, if she knew that they had met, she was almost bullied by him, I can't guarantee that she won't think about it, the relationship with Zhou Yu is very stiff now, and she doesn't want to make any more trouble.
It's like being bitten by a dog.
"Madame, where did you just go?" Zhou Ping asked cautiously.
Qiao Wan stood up and pinched his eyes tiredly, "I saw that there was no one next to the carriage, so I looked around, who knew that it was scattered by the crowd and couldn't find the way." ”
“…… It was a dereliction of duty on the part of his subordinates, and he almost made a big mistake, please punish Mrs. Zhou Ping was a little speechless, but he still bowed down and clenched his fists and said.
Qiao Wan smiled helplessly, "Let's go back." ”
Inside Zhou Yu's house
Because today is the Lantern Festival, the housekeeper deliberately decorated the house, the treetops, water pavilions, pavilions and pavilions are all hung with strings of small lanterns, and the warm candlelight is dense and bright like a spark, reflecting the bright hall in the house like a white sun.
Qiao Wan was stunned for a moment, and then infinite sadness followed. Today was supposed to be a day for lovers to get together, but she was the only one alone, and something almost so big, but there was no one to talk to.
Her husband doesn't know where to be happy at the moment, maybe there is a new person by her side.
With a sour look in her eyes, she quickly raised her head to hold back her tears. Qiao Guan, this is your own choice, you can't blame others.
Back in the room, the intimate Zizhu had already prepared hot water for her.
"Madam, I've heard Zhou Ping say it, today you were frightened-"
She shook her head, "It's okay, you can stand down first." ”
"Let the slave maid bathe you."
"No, you don't."
Zhou Yu came back at a bad time, today is the Lantern Festival, there is no curfew on the street, there are crowds of people, and it is difficult for cars and horses to travel. In the end, he simply abandoned his horse and walked back with great difficulty.
"Lord? You're back?! Zizhu was so excited at the door that she was about to cry.
Zhou Yu let out a "hmm", looked at the dark window, and stopped. "Madame, have you slept?"
"I'm asleep."
He nodded, but stood at the door for a long time and didn't push the door open.
Zizhu suddenly knelt down with a "bang", his head fell deep on the ground, and he said: "The slaves and maids didn't take good care of their wives, and they deserve death......
He was stunned, "What's wrong?!" ”
Zizhu told him about Qiao Guan's disappearance today, and just after he said the beginning, he saw that Zhou Yu's whole face changed, and he didn't wait for her to finish speaking, he hurriedly pushed the door and went inside......
At this time, Qiao Wan was struggling painfully in her sleep, and the daytime experience turned into a nightmare tormenting her. She tightened the quilt, her brows tightened, cold sweat trickled, and her mouth was a small and silent mutter, "Prime Minister...... No, don't ......"
Zhou Yu knew that she was having a nightmare, and was just about to wake her up, when she heard this, her movements froze, and then there was endless silence.
