Chapter 168: Back
Caiyun knocked on the small door of Su Mansion, and with a squeak, a slightly older door poked its head out. Caiyun said a few words to the doorman, and the doorman hurriedly turned his head to look outside, then rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and hurriedly shouted into the gatehouse, and a younger guy immediately jumped out of the door, glanced out of the door, and ran inside.
"Madame, Madame, the girl is back, the girl is back—"
Su Yingxue could only hear the shouts inside the door and the sound of running footsteps.
It didn't take long for Lan Ruo to run out with a large group of servants and maids behind him, his cheeks were red and he was sweating profusely because he was in a hurry.
Lan Ruo stood still when she was a few steps away from Su Yingxue, looking at her with teary eyes, her eyes suddenly turned red, her lips trembled, and she was about to kneel down as soon as her knees bent. The servants and maids behind him also knelt down one after another, wiping their tears one by one.
"Girl, you're back safely." Lan Ruo said in a hoarse voice.
Su Yingxue hurriedly took a few steps forward to support her when Lan wanted to kneel, and ordered the people behind her to wait to get up. Seeing their expressions of sadness one by one, Su Yingxue's eyes were also red. While appeasing Lan Ruo, he ordered someone to open the door and go home.
Lan Ruo wiped away her tears, and the servants and maids behind her hurriedly retreated to both sides to make way for her.
Su Yingxue turned around and said goodbye to Qin Ziqing: "You should also hurry back and report your peace to your uncle and aunt, don't forget to say hello to them on my behalf, and I will definitely come to the door to ask for my guilt in person." ”
Su Yingxue had already said these words, of course Qin Ziqing knew it, but just told her that it was okay, and let her go back with confidence.
Su Yingxue refused, and it wasn't until Qin Ziqing's figure disappeared around the corner of the street that she walked into the Su Mansion with Lan Ruo's support.
Because of Menzi's voice, all the subordinates in the Su Mansion quickly spread the news that the girl was back, and when Su Yingxue walked into the Su Mansion, except for those little maids and nurses who stood on the periphery with their heads bowed, all the maids and servants stood on both sides of the corridor, respectfully greeting Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue nodded her head.
It wasn't until she had greeted everyone that Su Yingxue hurriedly asked Lan Ruo about the recent situation in the house and her mother's condition. Lan Ruo chose the main thing and roughly told Su Yingxue, only then did she know that her father had gone out to look for herself a month ago.
"Yiyang? How could it be Yiyang? Where did my father get the news? When Su Yingxue heard that she was going to Yiyang, she only felt that her heart was beating suddenly.
Yiyang and Bazhou, where she is located, are basically two directions, is this news deliberately used by someone to lure her father? Tang Jun had specifically said at that time that if his uncle in Yiyang knew the news that the emperor was critically ill, he would most likely launch a coup d'état.
After a while, I asked my mother for peace, and I must find a way to pass the message to my father.
While she was talking, Su Yingxue saw that Su's mother was standing in front of the courtyard door with the support of two maids.
Su Yingxue forgot to raise her feet for a moment, under the scorching sun, the white hair on Su's mother's head was mottled, exuding a dazzling light, her figure had fallen out of shape, and she was so thin that she couldn't bear to look at it directly, and the clothes embroidered with peony flowers on the blue background fluttered under the hot summer wind. It was as if a gust of wind could blow her away.
In such a hot weather, my mother was wearing such thick clothes. Su Yingxue's tears flowed down, and the next moment she ran past Lan Ruo and threw herself into Su Mu's arms.
Holding her mother's thin shoulders, Su Yingxue completely regretted it, she shouldn't be like this, even if she wanted to be free, she shouldn't have made her father and mother worry so much. She shouldn't have been in such a hurry, she should have thought of a better way. She hugged Su's mother, but she didn't dare to use a little strength, muttered apologies in her mouth, said words of self-blame, tears ran down her cheeks and wet the clothes on Su's mother's shoulders, falling a little mottled dark blue.
Su Mu put her head on Su Yingxue's shoulder, and also hugged Su Yingxue, her slender arms didn't have much strength, only wrapped around Su Yingxue's waist. Hearing Su Yingxue's muttering voice, I wanted to gently pat her back to comfort her, but in the end I gave up because I didn't have much strength, so I listened to Su Yingxue's cry quietly.
Anyway, the daughter is back, it's good to be back. Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, closed her tearful eyes, and revealed a comfortable smile.
Lan Ruo wiped her tears and looked at the scene of the mother and daughter hugging each other and crying, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She knew that Su's mother's body couldn't last too long, and when she saw that Su Yingxue was almost crying, she stepped forward to persuade her, Su Yingxue hurriedly collected her face, helped Su's mother into the yard, and returned to the house to serve her to lie on the bed.
Su Yingxue sat on the soft stool at the head of the bed and held Su's mother's hand tightly. Fang Cai only cared about being sad and blaming himself, and did not look at his mother's face. Su Yingxue looked at this time and saw that her mother's eye sockets were deeply sunken, her originally round cheeks were very high at this time, and her lips that were fresh in the past were bloodless.
"Mother-" The corners of Su Yingxue's eyes were astringent, and she couldn't help but feel sad again.
"Good boy, it's good to be back." Su Mu gently patted Su Yingxue's hand and comforted.
"Hmm." Su Yingxue grabbed Su Mu's hand and rubbed it, and nodded heavily.
"It's dark," Su Mu said as she looked at Su Yingxue's face, "but she's fat." A smile hung on the corner of Su Mu's mouth.
Su Yingxue touched her cheeks and smiled. It seems that Caiyun has not been busy in vain during this time. Just because she was a little fatter, my mother seemed to be relieved a lot.
"My daughter goes out, but she doesn't eat less snacks from all over the world, and she eats too much unconsciously. Mother, don't dislike me. ”
Su Mu couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "How can a mother dislike her daughter?" Because he asked Su Yingxue if she was tired outside, whether she had suffered hardships, whether she was sick, and the people she was serving were okay? also said that she only took Caiyun alone when she left that day, but she was afraid that she would not be able to serve her well and so on.
Su Yingxue pondered the answers one by one, and comforted: "Although she only brought Caiyun with her, although she doesn't like to talk, she is extremely careful. It's very appropriate to take care of people. Fangcai's mother also said that her daughter was fat, if she hadn't been by her side from time to time, it was estimated that her daughter would have become fat like a bucket by now. ”
Su Mu smiled and scolded her. Because she had just gone out to pick up Su Yingxue, Su's mother had already spent a lot of energy, and when she was talking, her spirit was a little unable to keep up.
Su Yingxue didn't dare to ask her father because she saw that Su's mother was not in good spirits, and the mother and daughter said something considerate, and Su's mother fell asleep.
Su Yingxue held Su's mother's hand, looked at Su's mother's face quietly, and walked out after a long while.
Su Yingxue asked Lan Ruo who went to Yiyang with Master Su, when did they get the news, when they left, and so on.
Wonderful!
