Chapter 63: Spring is in full swing
The weather is getting warmer, spring is in full bloom, and the flowers are intoxicating. The peach blossoms in the garden are noisy, the elm plum smiles on the roadside, and thousands of branches squeeze the branches, the style is outstanding, and the brilliance is like a cloud brocade. The warm sunshine awakened the spring color in the garden and also awakened the hearts of those young boys and girls who had hidden in a winter, and the peony picked a few peach blossoms and handed them to Song Lingxi: "Miss, smell it, this peach blossom is so fragrant!" ”
Song Lingxi, who was sitting next to the stone platform, put down the book in his hand: "It's quite fragrant, what about Hibiscus?" I haven't seen her in a long time. ”
"She went out with Brother Yang Yong, saying that she was going to the suburbs to enjoy the spring flowers and asked me to give you leave, but I didn't tell you if there was nothing in the house. Then I'll go pick the flowers, Miss. ”
Song Lingxi slowly got up and came to the peach blossom tree: "Peony, Furong should be married to Yang Yong soon, what are your plans?" ”
"What do you mean, Miss?"
"You're almost sixteen, you can't follow me all the time, although my body is now well, what I said in Tianlong Temple still counts, are you willing to marry the prince?"
"Miss, why do you say this again, I said that I don't want to marry, so I'll be with you."
"If I were a man, I wouldn't let you marry someone else!"
"Miss is so annoying, it's getting dark and dinner should be ready in the kitchen, I'll send you back to the house first and then go to the kitchen to get you dinner."
"I'll just go back by myself for just a few steps, and you can go and get busy with yours."
Song Lingxi still ate and drank medicine as before, and after Peony put down the medicine bowl, he asked, "Is Miss grooming now or waiting for the prince to come along?"
"Did the prince say he was coming tonight?"
"That's not true, but this is the prince's bedroom, where else can he go if he doesn't come here?"
"You go back to sleep first, I want to read a book for a while and I'll freshen up myself."
"Reading under the candlelight hurts your eyes, Miss must not look at it for too long."
said that it was to read a book, but in fact, Song Lingxi just wanted to wait for Chu Yiyun a little longer, and she didn't see Chu Yiyun come back until the end of the day, and her heart suddenly became empty, and all kinds of bad thoughts instantly came to her heart, did she do not do well last night? Or did he encounter something bad and couldn't get out, or did he go where An Yuexiang was?
Just when she was distraught and full of thoughts, and her mind was in a mess, Chu Yiyun pushed the door and walked in, took off her cloak, and sat down beside Song Lingxi, with a heart-warming smile on her face: "Haven't you slept waiting for me so late?"
Song Lingxi's face turned slightly red and he bowed his head and said, "What's the matter, I'm obviously reading a book." ”
"Today, Yang Yong's sister and brother-in-law are back, and they proposed to me, and Yang Lan and Du Feng have experienced a lot of vicissitudes over the years."
"Yang Yong still has a sister?"
"That's, we grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and you don't want to think that Yang Yong is only twenty this year, how can he be my nurse if he doesn't have his sister Yu Niang?"
Song Lingxi raised his head slightly and asked, "Since she is a childhood sweetheart, how could she marry someone else?"
Chu Yiyun smiled lightly: "Is the princess jealous?" ”
"I didn't."
"Okay, I won't tell you this, Fleur is your person and you have the final say."
"Yang Yong and Furong childhood sweethearts have long agreed with each other for life, it is a matter of time before they get married, I don't want to be the stick that beats the mandarin ducks, besides, Furong is your daughter and not mine."
"You're really unforgiving."
"Now that Furong's matter is over, there is only Peony, she has been with me since she was a child, she has been with me for more than ten years, she has been centered on me and has no self, I don't want to treat her badly."
"That's not easy to do, as the righteous sister of Princess Peony Qi, you can find a child of a family in the emperor casually, and this matter will be left to me, so you should know what type of man she likes, right?"
"Peony, she has been with me since she was a child, and her appreciation level should be about the same as mine, just find it according to your standards."
"That's not easy, I'm unique in this world, and there is no semicolon in the whole world."
"Peony, she is a dowry girl, and according to the rules, she is also half a concubine, or you will accept her."
Although Song Lingxi never wanted to share her lover with others, she really didn't joke this time, because she felt that she really owed her too much for Peony, and the only thing she could do for her was to find a good home for her.
It stands to reason that Peony's father is a hussar captain general, and she can barely be regarded as a lady, but her father put her into the Hou Mansion in order to repay Song Yi's kindness, and became Song Lingxi's maid, five years ago, Peony's father also died because of saving Song Zhiyuan, so these things have always been a stalk in Song Lingxi's heart.
Because Chu Yiyun didn't know much about the relationship between Peony and Song Lingxi, he thought that Song Lingxi was deliberately testing him with a cautious eye this time, so he immediately smiled and picked up Song Lingxi and put her on the bed: "Okay, Peony looks good, but let me accept you before accepting her!" ”
Song Lingxi still said with a serious face: "What I said is true. ”
"What really? Don't think I don't know, you used hibiscus to test me last time, and this time it's a peony, I suddenly feel that the sentence of a woman's heart is tailor-made for you. ”
"No, I'm telling the truth."
"Are you telling me what to mean by asking me to marry another woman? Would you like me to sleep with someone else?"
"I ...... I don't want to, but Peony is different, I owe her too much, and I don't feel comfortable giving her to others. ”
"Don't worry, I promise to find her a good family, there are many ways to repay a person, you don't necessarily have to give your man to someone else, you can't have that kind of thought in the future, you know?"
Chu Yiyun gently lifted Song Lingxi's head and let her pill on her arm: "Sleep, for the sake of your hard work last night, I will spare you tonight for the time being, and I will slowly settle accounts with you after your body recovers." ”
At this moment, lying in Chu Yiyun's arms, Song Lingxi's heart was full of happiness.
The next day, Song Lingxi, who was sitting in the courtyard embroidering, looked up and accidentally found a paper kite flying in the sky, and then she showed a bright smile on her face, put down the needle and thread in her hand, and chased the paper kite in the yard: "It's a paper kite, look at it." ”
Chu Yiyun raised his head: "Look at you, isn't it just a paper kite, are you happy to be like this?" It must have been stuffy in the house for too long, right? How about taking you to Xishan tomorrow to put paper kites? ”
"Okay, I haven't let go of a paper kite for a long time, I'm going to be a butterfly."
"Then I'll be a spider and just eat you"
"I'm not afraid of you."
The days have finally calmed down, and the life of the young couple is full of all kinds of sweetness.
Song Lingxi moved into the Taichen Hall to live with Chu Yiyun, and the most unhappy thing in her heart was An Yuexiang, originally she had no status in the palace, if Song Lingxi was always favored like this, it would be okay. She had gone to the palace several times to complain, but to no avail, for the sake of Chu Yixing's running away from home, the queen had been in a bad mood and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
