Chapter 368: Near or Far

"This is my room."

"Then why am I here?" Only then did Yu Yu think of this question for a long time. Speaking of which, she only remembered half of what happened last night, when she was helped to the first room by Gong E, she was drunk and asleep, until Lu Yao changed her place, and she was picked up by Li Tai and the quilt, and she woke up with a drunken feeling.

“... I think you were drunk last night and were helped in the wrong place by your subordinates. "After Li Tai found that Yu Yu didn't remember what happened in the carriage that night in the big study building, he went back and asked the imperial doctor, but he learned that there was a kind of person who didn't remember anything after waking up, so he took advantage of the situation to classify her in this category.

Seeing her confused face at this moment, he was even more sure that she was drunk and forgetful. However, there is no other meaning to fight with her at this moment, but after listening to Shen Jiantang's words, I am afraid of scaring people away.

Yi Yu was already sober at this time, her mind was all over the place, and when she saw Li Tai's calm attitude, she thought about it before and after, and felt a strange smell - he was thinking that she didn't remember!

Discovering this, her mind, which was still hot just now, instantly cooled down, wrapped the quilt tightly, and raised her eyes to look at Li Tai, but she couldn't see any clues from his face.

If it weren't for her understanding of Li Tai these days, she knew that this person was indeed not a casual person in the relationship between men and women, so she was sure that the kiss last night was definitely not a joke. With his indifferent face now, she would really misunderstand that he didn't have that much to think about him at all, but at the moment, what kind of "non-confessional" behavior was for, but she couldn't figure it out.

In fact, according to her temperament, asking is the most direct way, but she didn't make up her mind to go all the way to the dark, so she changed the question that came to her mouth, and planned to go back and think about it again before making a plan.

"Please avoid it for a while, Your Highness, and let me freshen up."

"There is still half an hour for the banquet to be over, and after it is sorted out, you can go back to the house directly."

Under various factors, in this room right now, the two people with blue eyes and black eyes have had a very subtle change in their mentality, Yi Yu knows the thoughts of both parties, but he can't make up his mind, while Li Tai only knows his own thoughts, but he has already made up his mind.

As a result, this gradually clear relationship went in an interesting direction, but the two of them were unaware of it because of the "ignorance" of their emotional experience.

"Yes." Yi Yu bowed his head in response, and with the permission of the host of the banquet, it would be better to go back early.

Li Tai got up from the chair, looked at her fluffy head, his heart moved slightly, he took two steps forward, stretched out his hand and rubbed it twice, and when Yu Yu looked up in surprise, Fang withdrew his hand and spread it out in front of her, and a bright blue silk thread lay in the palm of his hand.

"Wake up early tomorrow and come to the Hibiscus Garden."

Yi Yu watched the silk thread fall from his tumbling palm, wondering when the silk thread was wrapped around his head, and at the same time he doubted in his mouth, "Huh? ”

"Flower viewing."

Li Tai turned around and went out of the house, and when the two palace ladies who were guarding not far away bowed and saluted, they saw that he had thrown something into the grass casually, and one of them was bold, and when he was far away, he ran into the grass to look for it.

"Look, it's a lotus bag, blue silk thread, this lotus embroidered is really beautiful."

"I'll see... No wonder His Highness threw it away, it's taken off here, give it to me, right? ”

"Don't give it, this is His Highness's thing, I want to keep it myself, who told you not to pick it up."

Early in the morning, Yi Yu returned to the house earlier than Lu Shuqing, bathed away from the smell of wine, changed into clean clothes, drank half a bowl of sweet soup, and went to Lu Zhongzhi's courtyard to watch people.

When I entered the house, I didn't see Lu Rongyuan's figure, and in the quiet room, except for the old man Lu who was unconscious on the bed, there was only a figure sitting quietly at the head of the bed.

"Grandmother?" Yu Yu called, I don't know where the people in front of and behind the house have gone, how to let the old lady watch here alone.

Old Madam Lu turned around when she heard the sound and beckoned to her, "Come back, come and sit." ”

"Hmm." Yi Yu went to move a small crescent stool with red silk cloth, which was originally the bedroom of the old couple, but after the old man Lu fell ill, the old lady Lu lived in the next room.

Sitting down on the side of the bed, she looked at the old man who was lying on the bed, his face was obviously thin, but his expression was serene. In the past seven days, she would come to this house every day and sit in this house for half a day, and she would not leave until Lu Rongyuan or Lu Jingshan picked up someone.

Old man Lu fell into a coma suddenly, but it was not without warning before, as early as when Chengyuan Lou met in private, she and Lu Zhi bumped into his illness, at that time it was only said that it was a cold wind, but it was not good for a long time, and then it was gone, only when he was fine, but after hearing from Dou's mouth that he had not cut off the medicine in private, he found out that this person's health was already bad.

As an elder, Lu Rongyuan brought her a kind of family affection that was different from that of Lu and his brothers, although she didn't get along for a long time, but when she heard that the imperial doctor was just a sentence of "prepare for the future", her mood was unusually sad, seeing that time passed day by day, Lu Zhongzhi did not wake up, she would also feel uncomfortable. The death of a loved one is a pain.

"Are you crying?"

With a voice above his head, Yi Yu hurriedly raised his head, stopped the tears that were about to stay, and said, "No." ”

Mrs. Lu shook her head and said, "Grandmother can't see, but her ears are good, you went to the banquet last night, were you bullied?" ”

"I wasn't bullied, I just remembered something unhappy." Mrs. Lu didn't know that Lu Zhongzhi's time was running out, but what she said was not a lie, after all, she was having a headache about the matter with Li Tai.

"Come," Mrs. Lu stretched out her hand, waited for the jade to be put on it, she gently held it, and said, "What is the difficult matter, let grandmother help you come up with ideas." ”

Yi Yu didn't notice her wording, it was the detail of "embarrassed" instead of "sad", but thinking about how to answer her, Xu Zhen was a little sick and rushed to the doctor, and actually wanted to tell her about her and Li Tai.

"If it's hard to tell, then grandmother can guess?" Old Madam Lu's half-wrinkled face showed a faint smile.

"Guess?" Yi Yu sat on a low stool, so he looked up at her, and the window in the room opened a palm-sized gap, but the sunlight slipped in, shining on the old man and the young man, which was very grandparents and grandchildren.

"Your grandfather said that if Yu'er reads well and writes beautifully, then it's not a matter of learning," she denied one item first, "Although your mother was taken away by Han Li, your grandfather and grandmother promised you that he would take good care of your mother, and Yu'er is a sensible child, so it's not a matter of it." ”

"You were born in February, after the beginning of spring, you will be fourteen years old, you are no longer a little girl, when it is the age to talk about marriage, you have to find a good family."

Hearing this, Yi Yu had a feeling that she was about to be seen through her thoughts, hesitated for a moment, squeezed her hand, and said: "Grandmother, a while ago, my grandfather told me about the marriage between the scholars. ”

"Right?" She chewed on those four words and asked, "Do you know where your grandmother came from?" ”

"My mother only said that your home is in Shuzhong."

"Well, my grandmother was born in an ordinary family, and your grandfather and grandfather are surnamed Fan Yang, you say, is this a 'good family'?"

“...... Not counted. ”

"But your grandfather, he treated me very well, I followed him in my life, whether it was uprooting my hometown, or fine clothes and food, I have nothing to regret." Her voice was slow, with the characteristic rhyme of an old woman, and it was serious.

Speaking of which, Lu Zhongzhi can be regarded as a wonderful flower in this era, even when he was a very human minister, there was still only such a only wife from a low background in the room, and the reason why the Lu family insisted so much on the matter of "taking concubines" was influenced by this old husband and wife.

"There are some things that should have been told to you by your mother when the time comes, but today you should be treated as grandmother's mouth, if you can not understand it, remember it first," Mrs. Lu put her other hand on the back of her hand and said slowly:

"As a woman, there is always a day to get married, this husband and wife love, is the most delicate relationship in the world, no blood, but better than blood, the close can be on the front line, intimate is not allowed to gap, this is a great luck; Those who are far away are the edge of the sky, and when they are alienated, they can turn into hatred, which is sad. Most women in this world are eager to be the nearer, but in the end, most of them become the farther, as is the case with the child in your mother's room. You must know that human affairs and things are always changeable, and the husband and wife, in the end, are near or far, unpredictable. Therefore, if one day, you have a favorite person, the first thing to consider is not the 'right person', but whether you have the heart to be the 'close person' with him, no matter what difficulties you encounter, to solve them, and not to run away. ”

After Mrs. Lu finished speaking, the room was silent for a long time, until a morning light shot in from the half-open window of the room, folded on the hands of the two of them, and then the words sounded again.

"You kid, you just think too much, sometimes, this person, just do what you want to do, just do it."

There seemed to be something breaking out of her heart, and Yu Yu looked up at her, and gradually smiled, "Yu'er knows." ”

"Well, go back to your room and rest, I want to be alone with your grandfather for a while." As she spoke, she clenched Yu Yu's hand again and let go.

Yi Yu answered, glanced at the old man Lu on the bed again, got up and withdrew, and when she walked to the door, suddenly someone called her behind her, turned around, and saw the old lady Lu sitting at the head of the bed, smiling at her, the eyes similar to her were slightly upturned, and those eyes were extremely gentle.

After she was stunned for a moment, she blinked, and then looked over, the eyes were clearly closed, and she secretly said to look at the dazzle, she lifted the curtain and went out of the house.

"Idiot, you should be able to leave with confidence, I have no regrets, what are you still nostalgic for."

On the bed, the old man lying quietly, a tear slowly slipped down from the corner of his wrinkled eyes. (! )
