Chapter VI

Yue'er, I hope one day you can understand my heart......

Ning Yue saw An Ruiqi bowing his head and drooping his eyelids, his thin lips were closed, he was silent, and there seemed to be displeasure on his handsome face, so he didn't dare to say another word. Brother Qi, do you know that I won't be able to help you by your side in a few months......

"Okay, let's not talk about that, Yue'er, would you like to listen to me play a song?" An Ruiqi took out a jade flute with white and green from his sleeve, and looked at Ning Yue faintly, his lips curved into a beautiful arc.

"Of course I do, Brother Qi's flute is very soothing." Whenever he heard An Ruiqi's melodious flute, Ning Yue, even though he was depressed, finally dissipated.

An Ruiqi raised the jade flute, gently close it to his lips, his slender and clean fingers jumped flexibly on the flute, and the elegant flute sound sounded, like a heavenly sound.

The warm sun, the cool breeze, the fragrance of flowers, the singing of birds, everything is quiet......

Ning Yue supported her chin with her hands and gently closed her eyes, enjoying the peace and pleasure.

Suddenly, the sound of the flute was messy, and Ning Yue woke up from the illusion created by the music, only to see An Ruiqi slowly put down the jade flute in his hand, and his eyebrows tightened.

"Brother Qi, is it a wind disease?" Ning Yue stood up nervously, touched An Ruiqi's hand, and watched his every move with concern. His hands weren't cold, but they weren't as warm as they used to be.

"Hmm...... Don't worry...... I'm okay......" An Ruiqi closed his eyes tightly, pressed his forehead with his fingers, and barely squeezed out a smile.

Ning Yue saw a trace of blue on his white face, and her heart ached: "Brother Qi, I'll help you press it......" She hurriedly walked behind An Ruiqi, and skillfully used her fingers to massage his temples, Fengfeng acupoints, Fengchi acupoints, Baihui acupoints and other head points in order.

After a few rounds of repetition, An Ruiqi's face improved slightly, his closed eyes slowly opened, and a comfortable smile appeared on his mouth. "It's so comfortable...... Fortunately, I have a head wind, otherwise how could I have Yue'er's skillful hands to massage me......"

"Brother Qi, don't talk nonsense, your illness will be fine, and then you won't need me to massage you anymore." Ning Yue couldn't help but be a little angry when she heard An Ruiqi laughing about her illness, how could Brother Qi spoil himself like this, even if it was just talking!

An Ruiqi turned his head slightly, and swept Ning Yue with his afterglow, pouting and smiling with satisfaction. Remembering that he had been sick again and again, and that she had massaged herself again and again, I don't know when he came up with such a sentence to mock herself, which made the good man angry, so he ate the marrow and knew the taste, and from time to time he brought up the old things. Yue'er cherishes me, and she only cherishes me as a person, not the son of a general.

"How nice it would be if Yue'er could massage me for a lifetime......" An Ruiqi couldn't bear her to be angry for too long, so he threw out a sweet word, wanting to make the beauty smile.

“…… But...... I won't stay by the side of the second lady for the rest of my life......" Ning Yue thought of her plan to leave soon, she turned from anger to sadness, tears filled up, and she couldn't hold back her eyes.

"yes...... Of course, Yue'er won't stay in Shangshu Mansion for the rest of her life. "Because I'm going to marry you." An Ruiqi reached out and gently shook Ning Yue's little hand, looking at her deeply. But not now...... I don't have that qualifications right now......

Although An Ruiqi is gentle and quiet on weekdays, it still does not prevent the arrogance in his heart from bursting out. In the past, he was riddled with illness, repeatedly shirked the affairs of the court, and lived in the glory of his father and brother, and was also happy. And now that she has someone she wants to spend her life with, she naturally hopes to show her ambitions, so that she is impressed and thinks that she is worthy of a lifetime.

Ning Yue looked at those clear and translucent eyes, her nose was sour, and tears came out of her eyes. Brother Qi, if you never see me again one day, will you feel a little heartache......

An Ruiqi felt confused about the tears of the tearful person in front of her, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly wiped away her tears with her hand: "Yue'er, don't cry, did I say something wrong......

"No, Brother Qi, it's not your fault......" Ning Yue quietly wiped her tears for An Ruiqi, feeling very nostalgic for these warm big hands.

"Do you think of your mother?" An Ruiqi asked softly.

Ning Yue was silent.

An Ruiqi looked at Ning Yue, full of pity, gently stroked her head, and said softly: "Yue'er, don't cry, Brother Qi is ......"

An Ruiqi's warm gesture calmed Ning Yue's heart, she wiped the tears on her face, and smiled at An Ruiqi: "Thank you, Brother Qi......"

After dinner, Ning Xue walked to Ning Yue's room, wanting to see how her new clothes were progressing.

She sat quietly opposite Ning Yue, watching Ning Yue sew stitch by stitch, and she could see that she was divine. Since Ning Xue accepted Ning Yue, she went to Ning Yue's room from time to time, and she looked at it for several hours, but she didn't feel bored.

"Second Miss, did you have fun today?" The beauty in front of her stared blankly at herself, and although this happened from time to time, she couldn't get used to it.

"It's fun, today Brother Xiang took me to the lake on a boat, ate delicious food, and bought me a lot of gadgets, which is interesting." Speaking of today's journey, Ning Xue was still interested.

Ning Yue looked up and saw that she was full of joy and was silent.

At this time, Ning Xuefang found that her eyes were slightly red and swollen, as if she had cried. "Xiaoyue, why are you crying?" Ning Xue asked curiously.

"It's nothing......" Ning Yue replied softly.

"You miss your mother, right? But then again, isn't my mother very good to you, she doesn't let you do rough work, and she also lets you eat and dress well, and ah, when you said you wanted to learn massage, my mother asked the old doctor to teach you. ”

"Well, yes, the second lady and the second lady have always remembered their kindness to me." Ning Yue looked at this carefree person, and a trace of envy appeared in her heart.

"At that time, I begged my mother for you, but now that I think about it, I regret it, I shouldn't have let you learn massage in the first place!" Ning Xue said with her cheeks puffed.

Ning Yue looked at her puzzled.

"You learned massage to help Brother Qi press it, right, don't think I don't know!"

Ning Yue was shocked in her heart, as if she had done something wrong, and did not dare to make a sound.

"Xiaoyue, didn't I tell you, I like Brother Qi, you shouldn't fight with me. Besides, you're just a little girl, and you don't deserve him......" Ning Xue's eyes flashed with a little anger.

"Second Miss, you misunderstood, I never had the luxury of expecting ...... It's just that...... If you like the second young master, then why are you so close to the eldest young master? Do you know that doing so will hurt the second young master's heart......" Thinking of An Ruiqi's lonely expression, Ning Yue's heart was bitter. Second Miss, don't you feel sorry for the second young master, and don't allow others to feel sorry for him......

"I know...... But I'm helpless...... I do like Brother Qi more in my heart, but Brother Xiang is better for me, and he is famous, and my father is more satisfied with him......" Ning Xue fiddled with the jade pendant on her waist, and her heart was entangled.

That jade pendant was originally Brother Qi's favorite thing, and he always carried it with him, but when he learned that the second lady liked it, he didn't say a word, and gave it to her. The gold thread pendant on it was later that the second lady thought that the jade pendant was light in color, so I asked me to tie it up.

"The eldest young master is indeed very good, and he is a well-known choice of good son-in-law in the city, but the second young master is well-versed in ancient and modern, astronomical and geographical, and Wen Taowu is not inferior to the eldest young master......" Seeing that Ning Xue was more inclined to choose An Ruixiang, Ning Yue hurriedly argued for An Ruiqi.

"Brother Qi's goodness is naturally clear to me, but he is really not as good as Brother Xiang's to me...... I always felt that he was cold and a little unkind......" Ning Xue pursed her lips lightly and said softly.

"The second young master has given all the things he loves to you, and his heart for you is heaven and earth, but he is not good at words, so he will end up with a cold image." Ning Yue said sincerely.

Ning Xue looked at the girl in front of her, her eyes were full of surprise: "I always thought that Xiao Yue had a bad idea for Brother Qi, but listening to your words today, do you want me to make another choice?" After finishing speaking, Ning Xue smiled weirdly.

"I don't dare to influence the choice of the second young lady, but I really hope that the second young lady and the two young masters are well...... Bystander Qing, if my words can give the second lady a little inspiration, it will not be in vain for you to be kind ......to me all the time," Ning Yue said as she looked directly at her.

"Hmm...... I understand Xiaoyue's thoughts, I'll weigh it carefully, okay, it's late at night, you can rest early! Ning Xue smiled and got up to leave.

"Second Miss, walk slowly......" Ning Yue got up to send off.

I feel like I am lost, and I hope my words can help Brother Qi a little......
