Chapter 23: Blossoms (3)

Xia Ruibei lowered her eyes: "Yes, she sat in my room for a while, and then she was called away." ”

Xia Ruixi reached out and touched her hand, which was cold: "Why did you come alone?" The girl doesn't bring one? In such a cold weather, why should you hold a hand stove and come out again. ”

Xia Ruibei's untraceable handle was withdrawn from Xia Ruixi's hand, and a pair of beautifully embroidered fish play lotus leaf purses were taken out from her arms: "I am here to congratulate you, I hope you will be successful in the future." ”

Xia Ruixi touched the purse, it was hard inside, and he couldn't help but look at Xia Ruibei inquiringly. Xia Ruibei took it and opened the purse, and took out a pair of dazzling beads made of southern beads: "This is my beloved thing, add makeup to you." I hope you can forget about the unpleasant things in the past. ”

Since it is her beloved thing, she categorically has no reason to win people's love, Xia Ruixi was about to excuse herself, Xia Ruibei simply covered her purse neatly: "Don't say more, if you don't want to accept it, you just won't forgive me." ”

Xia Ruixi had no choice but to accept it, Xia Ruixi saw the opportunity to lean over and said, "Third sister, didn't you tell me that you also want to learn to ride a horse?" How about going up and yo-yo today? ”

Xia Ruixi listened, and glanced at Xia Ruibei suspiciously, Xia Ruibei lowered her eyes, didn't look at her, and walked towards Ah Yue by herself: "I'm bored, learn something else, it can be regarded as a relief from depression." She said this as if she was saying it to Xia Ruixi, and it seemed to be saying it to Xia Ruiyu.

Xia Ruibei walked to Ah Yue's side, she didn't need help, she stepped on it with one foot and grabbed the reins with one hand, and she easily climbed onto the horse, which didn't look like a horse ride at all.

Xia Ruixi said: "Beibei didn't ride a horse once, right? ”

Xia Ruibei said bluntly: "Yes, I have often come here to talk to Ah Yue during this time, you see, it likes me very much, doesn't it?" I'm better than you right now. Go back first, I'm going to ride for a while. After saying that, he stopped paying attention to the others, and trotted intently in the yard on his horse.

Xia Rui stomped his frozen foot: "How did I not know that she often came here?" How dangerous is it to let her learn to ride a horse when no one is watching? ”

The little servant in charge of managing the stables nodded and said, "Back to the fourth young master, the minions also persuaded the third young lady like this, but she didn't stop." ”

Xia Ruixi scolded: "If she doesn't stop, you won't report it?" ”

The little servant said: "Second Miss, the slave has been to the main courtyard to look for the steward a few times before, but it is messy everywhere, and I don't know who to look for." Liniang and Steward Cui, the slaves can't be found, and the others don't want to take care of things. A few days ago, I went again, and everyone was busy with your marriage, and I couldn't find anyone. ”

What he said is also true, because of the separation of the family, except for a few chief stewards and the neighbors around the master, the other ordinary servants are worried about their own future, and they must have no intention of managing other things. Xia Ruixi felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, and always wanted to persuade Xia Ruibei to say a few words, but he felt that he couldn't speak. Compared with Xia Ruibei's current situation, she seems so happy and perfect, even if she says a few more words, she is afraid that she will be misunderstood as showing off her happiness.

Xia Ruixi took Xia Ruixi in the wind for a while, feeling a little cold and wanting to leave, while Xia Ruibei was running happily, her face was flushed, and her eyebrows showed happiness that she had never had in this period of time.

Xia Ruixi sighed and asked Xia Ruixi to go back first, and stay and wait for Xia Ruibei. Xia Ruibei ran for half an hour before stopping, and in a blink of an eye, she saw that Xia Ruixi was still standing under the corridor, wrapped in a cloak, her nose was red from the cold, but her eyes were looking at her, so she was surprised: "You haven't left yet?" ”

Xia Ruixi sighed his hand: "I have something to say to you." ”

Xia Ruibei jumped off the horse and threw the reins to the little guy: "Let's talk as we walk." This place is close to me, do you want to go and have a cup of ginger tea to warm up? And then let's go to the room together for dinner? ”

Xia Ruixi asked Chun'er to follow from a distance, and the two walked slowly along the bluestone road towards the Qinglian Water Pavilion.

"Why do you suddenly want to learn how to ride a horse all of a sudden?" Xia Ruixi doesn't want to fight with Xia Ruibei, everyone understands people, and there is no need to test it. Xia Ruixi believed that if Xia Ruibei didn't want to say it, he wouldn't even want to take half a word out of her mouth.

Xia Ruibei said lightly: "It's not a whim, it's just that I don't want to rely on others for everything anymore." When I was running away that time, Ah Ke didn't dare to take me away, I wanted to go by myself, but I found that I couldn't ride a horse, so I could only rely on others for everything. Without the help of others, I couldn't even get even half a step close to the horse, and I felt that I was quite useless. She looked at Xia Ruixi and chuckled: "Are you afraid that I will sneak away again?" ”

Xia Ruixi nodded: "Of course I'm afraid." I don't want to tell you that big truth, I just want you to think twice before you do anything, and don't always do things that you and your loved ones regret. There is no regret medicine in the world, and if you step on it, you may never be able to go back. You want to be happy, you want to escape fate, it's not your fault, the key is in the way. ”

Xia Ruibei said: "You don't need to say much, I know what you have to say, don't worry that I won't escape." Because if I escape, I won't survive or I won't be able to survive. I don't do stupid things anymore until I don't have enough strength. Please tell your mother, so that she doesn't have to worry about me, and takes care of other things at home. ”

Xia Ruixi was surprised, how could Xia Ruibei suddenly become so transparent? Xia Ruibei looked at her and nodded: "I don't think you have any intention of going to my place, I'll go back first." ”

Xia Ruixi hurriedly called: "Beibei." ”

Xia Ruibei stopped and looked at her: "Do you still have something to say to me?" ”

Xia Ruixi hesitated for a long time before saying: "Don't go out alone in the future, you have to bring someone with you no matter what, and wear more clothes, it's cold." Thank you for the bead flowers, I love it. "Maybe it's because I'm leaving, so I always feel that I have a lot of things to say to the people around me, even if I don't like or hate them, I can't hate them anymore.

Xia Ruibei lowered her eyes: "I know." ”

Xia Ruixi watched Xia Ruibei's thin figure slowly walk away among the flowers and trees in winter, and called Chun'er to go to the room until she couldn't see it anymore.

When I arrived at the upper room, I happened to hear Mrs. Xia and Liniang talking and laughing, talking about the Sun family. When Mrs. Xia saw Xia Ruixi entering, she did not shy away from her, but invited her to sit down.

Li Niang continued: "This aunt of the Sun family is really a powerful character, I handed over the fifty taels of gold to her that day, and told her that Mrs. was willing to introduce her three sons to study in Honglu Academy, and she was very happy. On the second day, he personally found a girl who was said to be hard, calm, and neat eyebrows, and took it home to be carefully trained. I don't know what method she used, but she finally let the Sun family carry people in through the back door. Although it is only Chongxi's concubine, the young master seems to like this one a lot, and his condition has stabilized, and it is estimated that he will not mention this matter again in a short time. ”

Mrs. Xia smiled brightly, but she thought that it was not a good thing that her condition was stabilized, but she was afraid that she would still die if she stabilized her memory. No matter what, let's get through Xia Ruixi's marriage smoothly and steadily.

Xia Ruixi was secretly fragrant on the side, and his aunt prescribed the right medicine and trained it by himself, which was not the same as Young Master Sun's appetite. If Xia Ruibei has to go to Sun's house in the future, it is not a good thing to have such a roadblock in front of her.

Where would they have thought at this time that this Mrs. Xia spent a lot of money to ask the aunt and grandmother of the Sun family to help alleviate the urgent need, and the concubine of Chongxi would solve the hidden worries of the Xia family once and for all after a few days.

Xia Ruixi was sitting in the big red eight-lift sedan chair, covering his head and face tightly, but it did not affect the earth-shattering noise outside. The sound of firecrackers, congratulations, gongs and drums, and the bright red in her eyes all remind her that she will step into a new world, start a new life, be a daughter-in-law, a wife, and a mother.

It's false to say that you're not worried, you're not afraid, you're not nervous, but what's the solution? People are already sitting here, and there is no way back. Xia Ruixi secretly comforted herself: "Anyway, I got married, and I don't have to be a leftover girl anymore." ”

She really wanted to see Ou Qingjin's expression, but she didn't have the courage to lift her hijab or peek at him from the sedan chair, because she was afraid that she would see an indifferent or masked face. That would have given her the courage to go on.

After a long time of jolting, the sedan chair finally stopped, and after a while, the surroundings suddenly quieted down, and someone shouted: "The auspicious time has arrived, and the groom kicks the sedan door!" The people giggled and laughed again.

Xia Ruixi's heart suddenly tightened, although the surroundings were not quiet, she still heard Ou Qingjin's footsteps walking towards the sedan chair very clearly, steady, real, just like his person.

Ou Qingjin stopped in front of the sedan chair and patted the sedan chair gently, Xia Ruixi knew that this was reminding her to get ready, and he was about to kick the sedan door. Sure enough, a moment later, there was a muffled sound, and the sedan chair shook slightly. This means that in the future, the man will not be afraid of guilt.

Xia Ruixi exerted his strength and kicked back without showing weakness. In response to him, she did not show weakness. This is what Mrs. Xia specially explained to her, always afraid that she would forget or be unwilling, and repeatedly explained until she was annoyed.

After kicking back, Xia Ruixi seemed to hear an imperceptible chuckle, and before she could tell if Ou Qingjin was laughing, Xi Po was already reminding her to hand the key to the dowry to the groom. The bridegroom is to show the key to the dowry to the heavens, so that the bride may have more sons in the future.

Xia Ruixi took out a bunch of keys from the purse on his waist and handed them out. A pair of warm and slightly dry hands gently touched her fingers intentionally or unintentionally when she took the key, and the feeling as if she had been electrocuted quickly spread from her fingertips to Xia Ruixi's heart. From now on, she was his wife.
