Chapter 269: Surprise (Medium)
Standing in Lingqiong Villa and looking down. On the left is the small and delicate half-moon pan, such as the moon with the moon next to the Chunyeon Pavilion, not far from the Chunyan Pavilion is the beautiful and beautiful Yeeongheon. Looking along the Lijingxuan, there is a weeping water pavilion surrounded by clear water. On the left, Jufang Pavilion and Biyi Gate Pavilion are separated by a towering ancient tree, and the Liufangwu is free and easy to hide in the green bushes, and the simple and natural Yixiangyuan is magnificent, and the three-legged stand is all interesting.
The February breeze blows, and the leaves of the entire backyard dance in the direction of the wind, making a gentle noise, like the shallow chant of a singer, which makes people intoxicated.
"Master Hou!" Eleven Niang looked at Xu Lingyi, who was standing in front of the window of the Dijin branch with her hands behind her back not far away, and her voice was a little hesitant, "You better put on a cloak!" ”
Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound.
He wore a stone-blue brocade robe, stood as straight as an aspen tree in the northern wilderness, and his handsome face was so tight that there was a deep groove beside his well-defined mouth.
Eleven Niang thought about it, took the cloak in the little maid's hand and helped him put it on.
"Master Hou, you've been standing here all afternoon." She gently helped him tie his cloak, "The concubine body warms the pot of wine, you can warm your body." ”
Xu Lingyi's gaze moved.
The corners of Eleven Niang's mouth curled slightly, and she nodded at him with a smile.
Xu Lingyi's tense face eased.
Eleven Niang smiled and pushed him to the side of the Zen chair with a royal blue cloud dragon holding longevity mattress and sat down.
Xu Lingyi found that the furnishings in the hall of the villa had changed a lot.
The original black lacquer Pengya large round table in the middle is gone, replaced by a small black lacquer half-moon table, with nine boxes carved with red lacquer camellias, neatly stacked with crystal meat, drunken green shrimp, smoked chicken wings, wind duck breasts and other side dishes, and there are red apples, golden oranges, yellow pears, and purple grapes in the white background and blue flowers......
Xu Lingyi looked surprised.
Shi Niang smiled and took the bell mouth wine cup with white flowers on a blue background: "Master Hou sees that the temperature of this wine is suitable." ”
Xu Lingyi took the wine cup with some hesitation and tasted it shallowly.
Mellow and long, it is the best Jinhua wine.
He drank it all.
Eleven Niang wrapped the ebony chopsticks in a white silk handkerchief and handed it over.
Xu Lingyi took the chopsticks and held them in his hand and pushed the wine cup.
Eleven Niang poured wine.
Xu Lingyi drank it all.
Amber and the others tiptoed to close the left and right brocade branch windows according to the instructions of Eleven Niang, leaving only the middle two, Xu Lingyi looked up, and he could overlook the scenery of the back garden of Xu's mansion.
The brocade-like clouds gradually faded away, and the sky darkened.
Lin Bo lightly lit the red palace lamp in the corner of the wall.
A layer of festive red was sprinkled in the room, which made Xu Lingyi a little less cold.
"Master Hou!" Eleven Niang poured her another glass of wine and told him about Qiao Lianfang, "The concubine carefully asked Aunt Qiao's side about the embroidery......
"Eleven Niang," Xu Lingyi waved at her, signaling her not to say any more, "It's so raw, why is the child gone?" No one knows this better than Qiao Lianfang. If the cow doesn't drink water, can we still force it to press its head? His eyes were bright and his speech was clear, and he couldn't tell at all that he was a person who had already drunk two jars of Jinhua wine, "Come, you've been tossed enough these days." Sit down and have a drink with me. ”
"The concubine is not good at drinking." Eleven Niang's voice was gentle, "Master Hou has also stopped!" She brought a small bowl of osmanthus glutinous dumpling soup and put it in front of Xu Lingyi, "I'll accompany Hou Ye to drink some sweet soup!" ”
Xu Lingyi smiled: "You think I'm drunk!" As he spoke, he walked steadily to the window, drank the wine in his hand to the scenery outside the window, and then looked back at Eleven Niang, as if to "Look, I'm fine."
The more drunk people are, the more they say they are not drunk!
"Master Hou is massive, the concubine is so good that I don't realize that you are drunk." A trace of worry flashed in Shi Niang's eyes, but her voice was gentle and soft, "The concubine is just tired of pouring wine." ”
Xu Lingyi laughed, strode to the Half Moon table, and hugged Eleven Niang.
The sudden change made Eleven Niang exclaim in a low voice, propped her hands on his chest, and instinctively leaned back.
The white jade-like face and delicate facial features were presented in front of him at a glance.
His smile faded slowly, his slender fingers crossed his mountain-like eyebrows, his tall and beautiful nose stopped at the corners of his rosy lips, and his eyes gradually burned.
"You're such an interpreter flower."
Sharply defined lips dilated in her vision.
Eleven Niang bowed her head.
The lips fell softly on her forehead.
"Silent ......" he muttered, kissing her forehead, then her cheek, kissing her neck, and burying his face in her hair.
The sound of rustling and grinding of clothes sounded in the silent room.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the maid and the little maid standing on the side hanging their heads and retreating quietly.
There are many ways to heal wounds.
But it does not include giving oneself.
Eleven Niang quietly let him hold it, looking for an appropriate opportunity.
The face against the back of her neck became hotter and hotter, and the arms around her waist tightened tighter and tighter...... But that's all, and there is not much to do.
Just when she felt that it was difficult to breathe, his mellow voice sounded intermittently in her ears: "Silent words...... I don't think I owe anyone......" in a depressed and bitter tone, "Why did you ......"
Why?
Because life is not one plus one, there are no formulas, standards, and uniform answers.
This question is too complicated, and Eleven Niang has no way to answer it.
She stared blankly at the stars outside the window, her hand gently wrapping around his waist.
His dreamy whisper came to his ears: "...... No...... I owe ...... Jasper's ......"
Eleven Niang was stunned.
Jasper? Aunt Tong Jasper?
That night, the night wind was very strong, crackling and lapping on the windows of Lingqiong Villa, and the hall illuminated by red lanterns was warm and quiet, like a corner of the world, making people relax. The two of them sat at the half-moon table, one slowly drinking, the other slowly pouring. The more the drinker drank, the better he became, but the drinker fell asleep at the table.
Her last impression was of herself curled up in a warm embrace......
When Shi Niang opened her eyes again, she was already in her bed.
The tent was half-hanging, and the right half of the bed was empty.
She got up.
The tent was immediately lifted.
"Madame, you're awake!"
Amber's smiling face caught her eye.
Eleven Niang still has a moment of confusion.
"Where's Master Hou?"
Amber served Eleven Niang and put on the silk jacket that had been dried on the baking cage: "Hou Ye took his wife back and went to the back garden, danced the sword, just came back, Xia Yizheng served to freshen up and bathe!" ”
Eleven Niang nodded and asked in a low voice about the situation on Qiao Lianfang's side: "...... Do you keep saying that Aunt Qin harmed her? ”
"No more!" Amber squatted down to put on Eleven Niang's shoes, "Since Madame reprimanded her and told her to speak with evidence, Aunt Qiao has never mentioned the words 'Aunt Qin harmed her'. Speaking of this, she froze, "However, Aunt Qin seems to be very afraid of Aunt Qiao saying this." She has been waiting for you to come back since yesterday afternoon, and she has been explaining to us that she has never seen Aunt Qiao since she was grounded, let alone visited Aunt Qiao...... She waited for you to drop the spoon yesterday, and came again before dawn today. ”
"Have you met Master Hou?" Eleven Niang stood there with her arms outstretched, and Amber served her to tie her skirt.
"Yes." Amber said in a low voice, "I was reprimanded by Lord Hou." ”
"Reprimanded by Hou Ye?" Eleven Niang groaned, "What did you reprimand?" ”
Amber said in a low voice: "Master Hou said, let her not listen to the wind and rain, and cause trouble for you here!" Then Li ignored Aunt Qin and went directly to the garden. ”
Eleven Niang sat on the embroidery pier next to the mirror and pondered.
Amber thought of Xu Lingyi saying that Aunt Qin "listens to the wind is the rain", and looked like she didn't believe that Aunt Qin would embarrass Aunt Qiao, and couldn't help but say worriedly: "Madam, are you afraid that Master Hou will favor Aunt Qin......"
"No, No, No, Yi Niang shook her head gently, "I'm thinking, Master Hou has always been polite to people." Can you ...... Aunt Qin Speaking of which, Aunt Qin is still the biological mother of the second young master, but she can be trained if she wants to, and she can shake her face if she wants to......"
Amber smiled: "Aunt Qin was originally the maidservant next to Master Hou. Naturally, it is different from ordinary people......" The voice has not fallen, and his face has been surprised.
Eleven Niang looked at her and smiled.
Amber silently.
"Please Aunt Qin come in!" Eleven Niang smiled, and her expression returned to her previous calmness, "What Master Hou said makes sense. Aunt Qiao's miscarriage has not yet been investigated, and it is indeed a little bad for her to listen to the wind and rain like this. ”
Amber responded and brought Aunt Qin in.
Aunt Qin was swollen and listless, and she looked five years old all of a sudden. When she saw Eleven Niang, she knelt in front of her, her eyes were red, and she burst into tears: "Madam, I really didn't hurt Aunt Qiao." If you don't believe me, you can ask the people around me, or you can ask the mothers in the yard......"
"Everything has to be about evidence." Eleven Niang asked Amber to help her up, "Aunt Qin don't worry. ”
Aunt Qin sobbed and stood up: "It's good that Madam believes in me, I really didn't hurt Aunt Qiao!" ”
She repeated these words, and Eleven Niang nodded from time to time.
Fortunately, Aunt Wen came.
"Oh, Sister Qin, you're really early!" She saluted Eleven Niang refreshedly, and the red gold lapis lazuli earrings hanging from her ears swayed in a beautiful arc with her movements.
Aunt Qin smiled and greeted Aunt Wen.
"It's a beautiful day!" Aunt Wen played with everyone, "At this time last year, the sun was also out for several days, but it rained at the end of the month. I don't know if this year will be different - isn't Miss Second going to be a full moon at the end of the month? He added, "I heard that the fifth master named the second lady 'Hei Xin'." Is it really settled? She asked Eleven Niang, but without waiting for Eleven Niang to answer, she said to herself, "I look at this name very well." 'Xin', 'its incense begins to rise, and God dwells in Xin'. What a good name......
She was verbose, but she didn't say a word about Qiao Lianfang's miscarriage.
