Come into the house and call the girls to put the newly delivered fruits on a few plates.

The two chatted while eating, but they were also happy.

At this time, a little girl in a green jacket entered the door and gave a proper salute: "The eldest prince said that after the sacrifice stove is completed, he will go back to the palace, so that the eldest * grandmother does not have to wait." ”

Qu Leyao was knocking on the melon seeds with great interest, and was stunned when she heard this, but quickly nodded: "Got it, go down." ”

Cheng Xueyan couldn't bear to look at the loss she deliberately hidden, so she hurriedly turned her eyes and pretended to look elsewhere, but she saw a sewing basket on the soft couch with openwork, and brought it over, one of the oversized insoles was particularly eye-catching, so she picked it up, but it was only half embroidered...... A lotus flower blooms alone in the lotus leaf, and below it is an equally lonely mandarin duck.

"The person he thinks about the most on weekdays is you, but because of the difference between men and women, it is inconvenient to go to the inner courtyard to see you, I wanted to call you today to make him happy and happy, to continue the relationship between brother and sister, but I don't want to ......" Qu Leyao's voice was full of apologies.

"It turns out that my sister-in-law called me here to please my brother......"

The words themselves are correct, the key listener is Qu Leyao......

She hurriedly changed her words: "This pair of insoles is embroidered for my brother?" ”

Qu Leyao immediately blushed, the delicate color was lined with pink rouge, so delicate and unparalleled, even Cheng Xueyan was stunned, I really didn't know how her brother turned a blind eye to such a beauty.

"How do you know?"

"I don't need to ask, who in Dijing has feet as big as him?"

In a word, a room full of people are happy.

Qu Leyao laughed out of tears, raised her hand to let the girls withdraw, and then sat down next to Cheng Xueyan, took the insoles, pulled out the needles on it, and embroidered them carefully.

Cheng Xueyan couldn't help but think of the Jin Ying who hung under Cheng Cangyi's eyes on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, presumably Qitong was also so affectionate and affectionate when embroidering. While embroidering, I was thinking about how to give it to my sweetheart, the kind of expectation that was full of the girl's shy heart......

Her brother was so happy that he had won the hearts of two women who were so good in the world, but it was a pity that if he accepted one, he would lose the other, which may be the reason why he tried his best to avoid it. It's just that I don't know if Qu Leyao knows all this, if ......

"What are you thinking?"

A soft question came from her ear, and she raised her eyes to meet her sparkling eyes.

"Are you thinking about Gu Sangongzi?"

Who kicked the gravel off the shore and fell into the middle of the lake, causing a splash......

She remembered that she had forgotten about this person, how could it be......

She hurriedly avoided her gaze, not knowing what to answer.

"If you don't speak, you're acquiescing." Qu Leyao smiled knowingly: "I've been idle all day, I just want to chat, if I say something wrong today, my sister must not mind......"

What else does she mind if she doesn't mind, she just wants to ...... Let's go.

"A long time ago, I thought that it would be the happiest thing in my life to marry a good man, but now I find that everything is far from being as simple as I thought." She sighed: "My mother is the daughter of Zhizhou, although the family is not noble, but she is also a person with status. She also has a younger sister who is even more beautiful than my mother. When she was a teenager, there were already many famous families who came to propose marriage, but she fell in love with a subordinate in the house. The family naturally disagreed, so she forced each other to die, and finally became this family business. But there was no room for that person at home, so she moved to the countryside with him. I think my aunt has not touched the spring water since she was a child, and I don't know how much hardship she has to endure when she arrives in that kind of place. But every year my aunt came to see us, she was smiling. She was getting old and her hands were rough, but her smile was happy. Sometimes, the mother also asked her if she regretted it. She shook her head, bitter is bitter, but her uncle is really good to her, and she has never been allowed to interfere in the work in the field, originally wanted her to live the kind of life in the house to stretch out her hands and eat to open her mouth, but she couldn't bear his hard work and learned to take care of the housework. I used to think that she was forcibly happy, until one time when I saw my uncle reluctantly handing her the package to her when he sent her, the eyes of the two of them ......"

Her voice froze: "My aunt still has no children, but the two of them are like glue like a newlywed, and they are inseparable." As the saying goes, adversity sees the truth, with too many flashy decorations, you can't see people's hearts clearly, now that I think about it, my aunt is a smart person, she made a choice for herself that is enough to be happy for a lifetime. In fact, what does it matter if there is food or not? What does it matter if the lover you marry is very promising? What does it matter if there are children and grandchildren who have incense lamps? As long as you can be honest and relative, it is better than sitting alone in front of the candlestick in front of the candlestick* until dawn......"

suddenly found that she originally wanted to enlighten Cheng Xueyan, but she unknowingly leaked her personal thoughts. She hurriedly stopped her voice, but saw that Cheng Xueyan was in a daze, so she didn't say much, some things always have to be understood by herself. Like her...... Who can persuade her? Although she knew that no matter how good she was, the person would not look at her, even if it was just a casual glance, but why did she refuse to give up?

Because it's her choice.

As early as when he came to the rescue of Ganlu Temple, she recognized this person. My father went to Cheng's house many times openly and secretly to propose marriage, but he did not get a response. According to her family background, this is not possible at all, unless ......

It's not that she didn't expect it, it's just that she really likes this man too much, and she just wants to stay by his side, even if she looks at him silently.

By chance, she fulfilled her wish, but when everything was really laid out in front of her, she found that even silent attention became extremely difficult.

You can't blame him for his indifference, you can only blame yourself for your greed.

On the wedding night, she stared at the flickering candle flame all night, and at dawn she cut her finger and dripped blood on the white silk......

She didn't feel pain, maybe this was what she deserved.

From the moment he lifted his hijab, he had already announced all this to her without any falling gaze. What the emperor gives marriage, what is given is just "marriage", but not happiness.

Why can't happiness be given?

She didn't understand, but she didn't regret it.

Maybe one day she will regret it, but before this day comes, she has to work hard to learn to be a good wife, even if it is only in exchange for him to look back.

Such...... It's already happiness.

"Sizzle......" she took a breath of cold air.

It turned out that he was only concerned about being distracted, and he actually stabbed his hand.

This sound also brought Cheng Xueyan back to her senses, and saw that she was hurriedly sucking the blood beads from her fingertips. Somehow, I remembered the pair of gloves, and the man came on horseback and threw it into his arms as if nothing had happened......

After sitting in silence for a while, she got up and took her leave.

The night is cool and invades the bones.

Cheng Xueyan wrapped herself in a brocade and silver ratskin cloak and looked at the deep night sky.

The stars adorn the night sky like pearls, and the soft light is quiet. After looking at it for a long time, it seems that my thoughts have drifted to infinity.

There are still seven days, and there are seven days to Chinese New Year's Eve, and as soon as the Chinese New Year's Eve passes, the new spring begins, and winter ...... Isn't that the end of it?

My heart suddenly tightened.

The oni said that her departure was in the winter, so to speak...... She only had seven days left.

Seven-day ......

Suddenly there was a step in the air.

Bi Tong hurriedly supported her, but was shocked to find that her hands were as cold as night, and people kept trembling.

"Does the girl feel uncomfortable?"

Cheng Xueyan shook her head, nodded again, unconsciously followed her for two steps, and suddenly stopped and turned around.

Just now she seemed to hear a call, gently, tremblingly, and brushing her ears with a hint of coldness......

Yan Ran......

Bitong also looked back for a while.

The wind lamp shook the soft light, and beyond the light, it was pitch black, as if a pair of eyes were hidden in it watching them. It was so close to itself that it seemed to be able to hear the breath of cold air, as if it could touch the tip of its nose with cold smell with another step......

Bi Tong was a little scared: "Girl, this Xinyuan is cold, let's hurry up......"

At that moment, the voice rang out again, this time overhead.

Pick up the light and look at the ......

A dead leaf hung in a strange gesture from the treetops, and the wind whistled.

————————————————————————

Cheng Xueyan fell ill when she returned to Yanran Pavilion, and within three days, she lost a lot of weight, and she didn't eat rice.

Song Guansan's fingers were on the wrist that was so slender that it seemed to shatter with just a light touch, but he didn't diagnose it for a long time, so he had to prescribe a prescription to nourish qi and replenish blood. Although I wanted to care about the beautiful woman, I knew that it was redundant, so I quietly retreated.

Bi Tong was in a hurry.

She had already told Mrs. about the girl's condition, but it was useless, and she only said that after finding a doctor, she would take the medicine according to the prescription. She also knew that Madame didn't like the girl in the first place, and she had lost face because of the first two incidents, so she wished that the girl was sick and died at this moment. And the lord did not return for many days, because the New Year is getting closer, and the Ministry of Rites also needs to prepare for the New Year in the palace. As for the eldest prince...... She saw Qu Leyao. Qu Leyao was useless in a hurry, so she could only send a thousand-year-old ginseng for emergency relief, and thought that Cheng Xueyan was depressed and sick because of her mouthy that night, but she was worried and sick.

Bi Tong sent the decoction to Cheng Xueyan's lips, but she turned her face away.

It's been like this for the past few days, even if there is medicine, I don't drink it, and I look like I'm bent on death.

Bitong finally couldn't help crying: "The girl has to take a sip, even if she doesn't think about herself, she has to think about the slave and maid, if the master sees the girl sick like this, the slave and maid will ...... The girl has always been the most kind and considerate, but now how can she be ruthless......"

"It's useless," Cheng Xueyan's chapped lips moved slightly: "What should be left is always the ...... to go"

"How do you know it's useless if you don't try? Doctor Song said that the girl was just suffering from a cold, and she would be fine after drinking a few pairs of medicines. Beg the girl not to say such discouraged words, the slave and maid are very afraid......"

"Go and bring our baby ......," Cheng Xueyan said as if sighing.

Bi Tong wiped her tears, sobbed and went to the inner room to hold the brocade Duoge dressing box, and then went to the secret compartment of Duobaoge to get the key.

Cheng Xueyan couldn't even take the key.
