Chapter 158: Intimacy
Gu Jue's face showed an unnatural red, and then he coughed lightly and turned away.
Her sister was placed in a room in the South Courtyard, which was originally Mrs. Gu's house, even after four years, it was still quite fine, and there was no need to bother to clean it up.
Yu Zhiyan was walking with ginger soup, but a small arm hugged Yu Zhiyan's leg tightly, it turned out to be Arno's child.
It turned out that Arnold's kid had been wandering around the mansion, and this huge Chengguo Mansion couldn't be easily finished, so she didn't know anything about those things in the front hall.
"You're still restless, kid." Although Yu Zhiyan was scolding, his voice was full of doting, "You will accompany A-Niang to meet your aunt for a while, but you must behave properly." ”
Arnold stared at Yu Zhiyan with a pair of curious eyes, "When did Arnold have an aunt, why did Arnold never hear anyone mention it?" ”
Yu Zhiyan squatted down and said earnestly, "She is A-Niang's own sister, you must treat her like A-Niang, okay?" ”
Arnold nodded obediently, "Yes." ”
Yu Zhiyan went to the house with Arnold, and naturally there were maids arranged by Yu Zhiyan in the house to take care of her, and Yu Zhishuang had slowly woken up.
"Sister." Yu Zhiyan hurriedly greeted him and handed over the ginger soup in his hand, "I just boiled it out, drink it to drive away the cold." ”
Yu Zheshuang's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a line of tears slowly rolled down, only holding the porcelain bowl thoughtfully.
Arnold, on the other hand, hid behind the bamboo curtain and timidly looked at the people lying on the bed.
Yu Zhiyan then remembered Arnold, and hurriedly pulled her to his side, "Sister, this is Arnold, she was originally a pimple, but she is young and arrogant, don't worry about her." ”
Yu Zhiyan's identity has been hidden by Fenghuang all these years, and even now, Arnold's identity is little known.
And Yu Zheshuang never thought that the two of them actually had a child, and the porcelain bowl in his hand couldn't help but shake, and half a bowl of ginger soup was splashed on his body.
She looked at Arnold with a stunned face, but saw that the child was only four or five years old, but his eyebrows and eyes were already extremely beautiful. He was dressed in a scarlet dress with two thin braids tied on his head.
This kid is very similar to Gu Jue, especially those dark eyes, when he looks at people, he only looks at people's hearts.
Arnold also looked at Yu Zheshuang carefully, and saw that this aunt was not at all like his mother.
Yu Zhiyan coughed lightly at Arnold, and then slowly snorted at her, Arnold walked up respectfully, and saluted in a proper manner, "Hello, aunt." ”
There was a trace of jealousy in Yu Zheshuang's eyes, and he disappeared in an instant, only calling Arnold in front of him, and then pulling her hand tightly.
"Sure enough, it's a beautiful child." She reached out and touched Arnold's cheek.
Seeing that his sister seemed to like Arnold very much, Yu Zhiyan's tightly hung heart gradually let go.
Yu Zhishuang pulled Arnold and said for a while, and Yu Zhiyan asked Arnold to send him outside, and then looked at his sister.
"This is something that Dong Lang and I have on our minds." Yu Zhiyan's face was embarrassed, but he still handed over the bag of silver in his arms.
Yu Zheshuang slowly raised her head, and said with a sad face: "Maybe I kill myself here just to dirty your place, and I will find a place where no one is around." ”
Hearing this, Yu Zhiyan's face turned pale, and he suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Yu Zhishuang's hand tightly, "My sister is my dearest, I thought you were gone all these years, I lived in torment every day, and now I know that you are alive, where is there any reason to leave you alone." ”
Yu Zhishuang touched her tears, "Sister knows what you taboo, Donglang has always been disgusted with me, and I have nothing to hope for." ”
After she finished speaking, she got off the bed by herself, and her feet were weak, and she fell straight down to the bed.
Yu Zhiyan hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her up, without thinking about it, only said: "This Chengguo Mansion is very big, what is the difficulty of living in my sister." ”
Hearing this, Yu Zheshuang's face was moved, and then he drank the remaining half bowl of ginger soup. Yu Zhiyan personally served her to sleep, and then came out of the house.
When she came out of her sister's house, she went straight to her and Gu Jue's house.
As soon as she entered the house, there was a pungent smell of medicine, mixed with a faint choking smell of charcoal, which was just used by ordinary people at home.
Yu Zhiyan involuntarily went to look for Donglang's shadow, but saw him lying on the bed to rest, he didn't wear a shirt, just wrapped in a thick layer of cloth.
The snow-white gauze faintly leaked bright red blood, and the scars on his body must have been heavy.
Thinking of this, Yu Fold the smoke heart like a knife, only walked lightly to the bed, and wanted to pull the brocade quilt over to cover her.
Unexpectedly, the brocade quilt was placed on the inner couch, and her body almost lay on his body to take it, but as soon as she held it in her hand, a pair of ill-intentioned hands suddenly wrapped around her waist.
Yu Zhenyan's body was unstable, and he fell into his arms fiercely, and was immediately hugged tightly in his arms.
"Your injuries." Yu Zhiyan said with a worried face: "Stop messing around." ”
Gu Jue hugged her tighter, and he just wanted to embed her in his own blood and bones.
His voice was full of exhaustion, "Is she leaving?" ”
Yu Zhiyan hesitated for a while before he hesitated: "She is helpless now, where can she go if she doesn't stay here." ”
Hearing this, Gu Jue's face really changed, and the anger in his eyes became more and more obvious, "That woman obviously came with bad intentions, and it will be a disaster to keep her sooner or later." ”
She came out of his arms and cried miserably, "But what can I do now, I can't watch her die." ”
As soon as she cried, her arrogance softened suddenly, and she just said helplessly: "I just don't want your life to be better." ”
"Donglang, you never know how well my sister treats me." Yu Zhiyan slowly raised his head, "At the beginning, my mother died of illness in Yu's mansion, and my stepmother treated us harshly all year round, and it was common to be beaten and scolded. ”
"At that time, I was only three or four years old, and once the concubine in the house almost tortured me to death, but my father didn't care about our life or death."
Thinking that Yu Zhiyan had been treated so harshly when he was young, he couldn't help but feel distressed in his eyes, thinking that it was common for concubines in everyone's compound to compete for favor, but few families could do it so inhumanely for two children.
"And then?"
"Then my sister took me to Jiangnan to join my uncle." Yu Zhiyan's voice was full of choked voice, "She was only six years old at the time, and she carried me all the way from the capital to Jiangnan. ”
Yu Zhiyan couldn't cry at this time, they were penniless at that time, and Yu Zhishuang almost begged along the road to take her away.
Two girls who are so young were almost abducted by abductors on the road, and they don't know how many beatings and scoldings they received before they arrived in Jiangnan.
Yu Zhiyan had long forgotten how the two of them got to her uncle's house in Jiangnan, but she had heard her aunt mention that at that time, she and her sister were so thin that only bones remained, and there was almost no human form.
In my uncle's house, the two sisters ate and slept together, and they were very close.
So no one knows how happy she was when she saw her sister again, and never knew how much she hated Gu Jue for killing her sister.
Hearing this, Gu Jue couldn't say anything anymore, and only said lightly: "If this is what you want, I will promise you." ”
Seeing that he agreed, Yu Zhiyan's long-hanging heart gradually let go, and soon Arnold came over, only saying that he had picked a place called Haoxia Pavilion in the Chengguo Mansion and said that he wanted to live there.
Gu Jue's face was also full of pampering when he heard this, and he only smiled, "Sure enough, it's my daughter, that's where my father lived when he was a child." ”
Arnold felt his mouth and asked with curiosity, "Then why didn't Daddy live later?" ”
Gu Jue didn't know how to answer, but at this moment, Yu Zhiyan said in a weird way: "Your father naturally wants a group of wives and concubines to start a family, how can such a small place accommodate him." ”
"Daddy is such a wanderer." Arnold didn't know where to hear such words, and couldn't help but cross his waist angrily, looking like a little adult.
Hearing Yu Zhiyan's lukewarm words, Gu Jue reached out and grabbed Yu Zhiyan's waist, and then whispered in her ear: "Can't you save me some face in front of your daughter?" What gibberish? ”
The strength in his hand was not great, but her waist was crispy and numb, and he hurriedly brushed his hand away.
That Xiu was disposed of by himself, and there was not even a personal servant around Arnold, so Yu Zhiyan chose a person named Jin'er from among the people given by Feng Huang to serve Arnold personally.
And Yu Zhiyan also chose two in the house, and they didn't need the previous names, one was fifteen or sixteen years old, and the playful and cute Yu Zhiyan was named Hong Zhu'er, and the other looked shrewd and careful was called Bai Zhu'er.
Now that I have just come to the Chengguo Mansion, the waste of these years is also a real mansion full of dust, and even the pot stove has not been cleaned up, and the slaves only made some porridge and simple dishes and sent them over.
Yu Zhiyan personally selected some barely able to pass, and asked the maid Bai Zhu'er to send them to her sister's house.
Arnold has also been spoiled since he was a child, where can he eat such a meal, only barely took two bites, and then let the maid Jin'er lead him back to the house to sleep.
Yu Zhiyan was also covered with dust after a busy day, so he only asked someone to prepare water to bathe and change clothes.
Fortunately, the spring dug in the Chengguo Mansion was not blocked, and she only asked someone to clean up the fallen leaves piled up in the water.
The bath was very warm, and the warm smoke had forgotten the coldness of the uncertain life and death of the previous days.
Her jet-black hair floated in the pool like a green wattle, and her thin white fingers plucked the warm water, washing it very carefully.
Yu Zheyan was washing, and suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and thought it was a maid who came to deliver clothes.
She said lightly, "Put it down." ”
However, he didn't hear the footsteps of leaving for a long time, and Yu Zhiyan couldn't help but turn his head.
As soon as her head was twisted halfway, a handful of water was splashed on her face, she wiped the water from her face, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Jue looking at her with a playful face.
Yu Zheyan didn't have an inch on his body, but subconsciously stretched out his arm to wrap around his chest, and his face suddenly flushed.
"Don't go quickly, what will the maid look like when she comes in in a while." Yu Zhiyan scolded softly.
Gu Jue didn't pay attention to her awkwardness, but jumped into the water all of a sudden, because his burly body jumped down, and the water that originally flooded Yu Zhiyan's chest suddenly reached her neck.
She subconsciously took a few steps back, and Gu Jue hurriedly reached out to grab her, but unexpectedly, her watery skin was very slippery, and slipped away from between his fingers like a fish.
Yu Zhiyan took a step back, and then he smelled a pungent smell of blood, and he only looked nervously, but saw that Gu Jue's wound wound was bleeding.
She couldn't care about playing around, and hurriedly said: "You are so badly injured, how can you get wet, don't go out quickly." ”
Gu Jue smiled, as if he was very satisfied with the worried look on her face, but he reached out and hugged her.
Soon he walked up the steps of the bath, step by step.
When Yu Zhiyan's body suddenly left the warm water, he only felt a chill on his body, and he couldn't help but lean against his chest tightly.
"Put it down." She was so red that she buried her face deep in his chest.
The smile in his eyes deepened, and he only slowly put her on the soft couch beside him, and then he put on a shirt for her very quickly, and carried her to their house.
This hot spring is not very far from their house, but it is inevitable that some maids and servants will see it, and if the gossip spreads, I don't know what it will become.
Yu Zhiyan was thrown on the couch by him, the futon she stretched out was a little cold, and she hurriedly got into the bed.
Dong Lang was about to take off his wet clothes, but who knew that the sound of the maid Bai Zhu'er came from outside.
"Madam, the one from the Shoufu Pavilion is going to spit out all the medicine just now, so I told you to go over and take a look." Bai Zhu'er is a person who does things properly, and will never disturb such a beautiful scenery unless it is absolutely necessary.
Gu Jue slammed his wet clothes on the ground, and said angrily: "She's not a doctor, what's the use of calling her." ”
But Yu Zhiyan was full of nervousness, and hurriedly took out a shirt from the cabinet, and put it on.
Gu Jue was also busy putting on his own clothes, and then said with a displeased face: "That's it, I'll go with you to see her." ”
As he spoke, Yu Zhiyan had already put on her clothes, because she was in a hurry and had no time to put on her cloak before she was about to run outside.
Gu Jue hurriedly put the cloak on her, and covered her long wet hair with a hat.
She and Gu Jue went together, but Gu Jue did not enter the house, it seemed that she was extremely disgusted with Yu Zheshuang, and would rather freeze outside.
Yu Zhiyan entered the house, but saw Yu Zhishuang's face pale, and said lightly: "Why did I call you." ”
"My sister is sick, and I can sleep well again." Yu Zhiyan hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed, and saw that the maid brought a new decoction at this time, so she personally served her sister to take the medicine.
The soup that had just been boiled out was a little hot, and Yu Zhiyan only blew spoonful by spoonful, and then slowly passed it to his sister's lips.
Yu Zhishuang only swallowed one bite at a time, and after drinking most of the bowl, he pointed to the back that fell on the window, "He still hated me very much. ”
Yu Zhiyan saw that her face was full of sorrow, and couldn't help but lie: "Donglang also caught a cold, but I was afraid that I would pass my illness on you, so I didn't come in." ”
Hearing this, Yu Zhishuang's face seemed to be better, and then said slowly: "Our sisters haven't slept together for a long time, you stay here today, let's sisters talk about themselves." ”
Yu Zhiyan knew that Gu Jue could wait outside, but he was afraid that he didn't want to stay here by himself, but since his sister wanted to talk to him, she naturally couldn't refuse.
She nodded slowly, "Okay." ”
Yu Zheshuang's eyes had a look of joy, and just when Yu Zheyan didn't see it, her afterglow fell on the black shadow on the window,
It's cold.
Yu Zhiyan didn't know what to say, and didn't even dare to face the angry Gu Jue, so she slowly walked to the door and said, "Donglang, you go back first, I'll stay here with my sister." ”
Sure enough, the figure outside stiffened suddenly, and then kicked the door open, "Follow me back." ”
His cold hand was clenched on Yu Zhiyan's arm, and there was endless coolness in his voice, "You've been busy all day, and it's time to go back and rest." ”
Even though he was injured, his hand was still like a golden hoop, and she couldn't break free, so she just let him pull it out.
Gu Jue's cold gaze fell on Yu Zheshuang's face full of jealousy, and then said coldly: "I don't know what you're thinking, but since you stay in this Chengguo Mansion, you have to be a man with your tail between your legs in a proper manner." ”
Yu Zhiyan subconsciously went to look at her sister, but saw a trace of embarrassment on her face, and then said in a voice full of cowardice: "Yes." ”
It wasn't until Yu Zhiyan was pulled into the room by him that she shook off his hand fiercely, "Do you know how much your words just now hurt my sister's heart?" She almost died for you, and now you can't tolerate her like this. ”
Gu Jue's originally wet hair had been frozen outside for too long, and there was a faint layer of white frost on it.
"You really don't know the good heart." Gu Jue's voice was full of grievances, "I don't know who I'm doing this for." ”
The charcoal fire in the house crackled, Yu Zheyan was still wearing a cloak, and the fluffy fox fur kept running across her fine white neck, and it was a little hot for a while.
Yu Zhiyan took off the cloak on his body and was about to throw it in the cabinet, but his slender waist was tightly hugged by him.
Then her body was in the air, and she was picked up by him.
He impatiently walked to the bed, threw her on the bed, and then said unhappily: "The Spring Festival just now was interrupted for a moment, how do you say you want to compensate me?" ”
Yu Zhiyan was under the soft quilt, and she clenched her fist and slammed it on his chest, "What your daughter said is really right, she is really a wanderer." ”
Gu Jue had long forgotten this hatred, and when she mentioned it again, she couldn't help but be angry and hateful, and hurriedly reached out to pull her skirt.
There was ambiguity in the room, as if all those sufferings had been left behind.
Yu Zhiyan only thought that he would be successful in his life, so he stayed in the Chengguo Mansion and never asked for royal power and wealth again.
Gu Jue seemed to be really tired, and soon fell asleep, but his eyebrows and eyes were still frowning tightly together while he was asleep, as if there was something annoying.
Yu Zhiyan was still worried about her sister, so she slowly got out of bed, then picked up the clothes that fell on the ground and went straight to her sister's house.
When Yu Zhiyan arrived outside the house, he saw that the lights inside were still on, and the low sobbing sound kept coming.
Yu Zhiyan's heart suddenly twisted like a knife, and he hurriedly pushed the door in, but saw that his sister was crying pitifully on the bed, and her thin body trembled.
"Sister." Yu Zhiyan's voice was hoarse, "You know Donglang's temperament, he doesn't have any bad intentions, but he is crazy all day long."
Crazy nonsense, don't take it to heart. ”
Hearing the sound of Yu Xuanyan, she slowly stopped crying, and then slowly raised her head, her eyes were already red and swollen from crying.
And her gaze involuntarily fell on Yu Zhiyan's neck, and the red mottling confirmed that there had been an ambiguity in the room just now.
It was dark in the room just now, and Yu Zhiyan didn't notice these when he was dressing, but now he saw that his sister had been staring at his neck, so he went to look at the bronze mirror placed aside.
She subconsciously flicked the green silk that she had hung down forward, just enough to block the red brand.
Yu Zheshuang also seemed to realize that she had been looking at it for too long, and she was busy rubbing her red and swollen eyes, and then said lightly: "Why are you back?" ”
As if he was in Uncle Jiangnan's mansion, Yu Zhiyan kicked the embroidered shoes under his feet away, and then jumped onto the bed all of a sudden.
"I'll sleep with you, sister." Yu Zhiyan smiled calmly, "Let's talk about our own words." ”
Yu Zheshuang stretched out her hand and pulled half of the brocade quilt on her body, then covered Yu Zheyan's body, and then said lightly: "I just remembered your playful and cute appearance when you were in Jiangnan." ”
"I remember when I was a child, I broke my uncle's favorite vase, and in order to prevent my uncle from finding out, I went to the market to buy fakes and came back to make up the money." Thinking of the ridiculous things he did when he was young, Yu Zhenyan's eyes were full of tenderness.
"Yes, you fool also think about it, my uncle is a businessman, how can there be a reason that he can't see." Yu Zhishuang said lightly: "I remember."
At that time, your uncle punished you to kneel in the ancestral hall, and even your aunt's intercession was useless. ”
"Yes, at that time, my uncle punished me for starving three times, and it was my sister who secretly threw meat buns at me through the window." Yu Zhiyan laughed inconsistently, "As a result, my sister's bun smashed the ancestor's tablet, and my uncle punished my sister for kneeling for two days." ”
It gradually deepened, and the two of them gradually got tired, and before they knew it, Yu Zhiyan slowly fell asleep.
And Yu Zheshuang also blew out the candle flame in the gauze lamp next to the bed, and slowly closed his eyes, but was awakened by a heavy footsteps.
