Chapter 132: Matters of the Heart (2)
Shen Yuechen gave Ruan Linluo a bracelet last time, and this time she is going back to Beijing, so Shen Yuechen naturally has to prepare some small gifts.
Last time it was a greeting gift, this time it's a farewell gift.
The more expensive the meeting gift, the more decent, and the farewell gift is the most important and affectionate, and the heart is the most important.
However, because they are not peers, there must always be a rule for giving gifts in return.
Shen Yuechen is not a good woman, but usually on a whim, she will also do some needlework, she embroidered an embroidered purse for Ruan Linluo.
Although the pattern is simple and looks ordinary, it is finally made by hand. Moreover, there is also a jade ring stuffed in the purse, which is small and exquisite, crystal clear.
In this way, there is a heart, and there is decency.
Shen Yuechen handed the purse into Ruan Linluo's hand, and said with a smile: "I'm a stupid person, this little care, I hope my sister won't laugh." In the future, when I am free, I will often go home to see, and we can talk together. ”
Seeing this, Ruan Linluo took the purse, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is too polite, I have only come to live for a few days, you embroider this purse very beautifully, and you do better needlework than me." ”
Shen Yuechen said with a smile: "It is said that my sister's needlework is good, I don't dare to compare with you, lest I be compared to you and lose my face as a sister-in-law." ”
Ruan Linluo said embarrassedly: "I have only been here for half a month, but I received a car of gifts." ”
Shen Yuechen said with a smile: "The elders give the elders feel sorry for their sister, I, who is a sister-in-law, if I don't show my heart, wouldn't I have wronged my sister." What's more, my sister is such a sensible and well-behaved lovely person, I don't feel distressed about how much I send. ”
Ruan Linluo listened to her words and immediately smiled happily, but with a smile and a smile, she suddenly stopped laughing, sighed with emotion, and said, "Alas, I don't know what year and month it will be to see you again?" Sister-in-law, don't forget me......"
Shen Yuechen held her hand and persuaded softly: "How could you forget?" With a good sister like you, I can't forget it. Besides, there is still a long time to come. My sister will come back next year, and the two of us will go to the garden together to enjoy the flowers and talk. ”
Ruan Linluo nodded at first, then shook her head again.
It's naturally best to talk heart-to-heart, but I don't know if there will be such an opportunity in the future.
Although she loves to be coquettish, she is not a child anymore. This time, the reason why my mother was willing to agree to let her come out was not because of her family affairs.
From nowhere, a few years ago, she happened to hear the mother-in-law privately discussing the news that the family was going to marry her.
It's just that the subordinates secretly heard it and whispered that she didn't take it seriously in her heart. However, the more she was not serious, the more gossip in the family grew, and there were even more excessive rumors that the family was going to send her to the palace......
She originally didn't believe it, but there was always a pimple in her heart that she couldn't let go, and the attitude of her family treated her better every day, even the eldest aunt who usually didn't like to see her treated her kindly...... The uncle's family, how they usually want to be powerful in the house, and even have a lukewarm attitude towards their father and mother, why do they treat her kindly.
Shen Yuechen saw that her face was different, and couldn't help but be concerned: "Sister, is there something on your mind?" ”
Ruan Linluo said lightly: "There is a saying yes, and there is no saying no." ”
Shen Yuechen was slightly stunned, and only said: "My sister's words made me a little confused. ”
Ruan Linluo said: "Things are a little unclear for a while, and I also hope that I am more careful." Sister-in-law, I really want to go back, but I'm afraid that after I go back, I won't be able to come out again......"
is different from the crisp and refreshing in the past, at this time, she has deep worry and hesitation in her tone, and she is not like her at all.
Before she finished speaking, Shen Yuechen gently covered her mouth and said angrily: "At a young age, what naughty words do you say?" There is no taboo in my heart. ”
Ruan Linluo nodded and smiled, "No, I must be confused...... How could such a thing of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix to me be spread on me. ”
Shen Yuechen listened to the meaning of her words, and immediately moved in her heart.
Adore the rising sun...... She couldn't get out of what she just said, she was referring to entering the palace......
Shen Yuechen raised her eyebrows, only looked at Ruan Linluo's beautiful face, hurriedly thought slowly, and said gently: "Although I don't know my sister's thoughts, I know that my sister is a smart and assertive person. As the saying goes, people are not as good as heaven, my sister doesn't need to worry too much, as long as she knows what will happen in the future, the future will definitely be safe and healthy. ”
When Ruan Linluo heard this, her eyebrows moved slightly, she looked up at Shen Yuechen, with a little uneasiness in her eyes, and said, "Sister-in-law, is this true?" ”
"Of course!" Shen Yuechen nodded seriously, and the words of encouragement were only converted into one sentence: "Don't worry!" ”
Ruan Linluo listened to it, and sure enough, she slowly relaxed and smiled sweetly at her.
After dark, Shen Yuechen sat quietly in front of the carved bronze mirror, and for a while her fingers combed the long hair that had just been wrenched. Silently remembered what Ruan Linluo had said in the afternoon, and thought a little more in my heart.
It may not be without a cause.
A few days ago, didn't a lady just die in the palace. Ruan Linluo's worries are likely to be true.
However, it is said that today's saints are already over half a hundred years old. And Ruan Linluo is only 14 years old this year...... How can this be justified!
Shen Yuechen's fingers paused slightly, and she felt that Ruan Linluo was not worth it in her heart, and she only begged that she was a blessed person, and it was better to be able to marry the prince and prince than to become a harem concubine who could not be free for the rest of her life, and she wasted a good life in vain.
"What are you thinking?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, and when he looked up, he saw a figure walking slowly in the bronze mirror.
Shen Yuechen was slightly stunned, she thought he wouldn't come tonight, but he came again.
Before Shen Yuechen wanted to get up and salute, he was pressed on the shoulders by a pair of big hands. Zhu Jintang's strength was not great, but it still made her feel painful.
Shen Yuechen raised her head and smiled: "Sister Linluo, Ming'er is about to leave, and the concubine is very reluctant in her body and mind, so she will go out alone." ”
Zhu Jintang knew that Ruan Linluo was on good terms with her, and said lightly: "Auntie, this time is already very kind to her." ”
Shen Yuechen nodded silently.
Seeing that she was silent, Zhu Jintang couldn't help but want to start figuring out her thoughts, and even he felt a little surprised.
Shen Yuechen didn't mention anything in the morning, and served him to change clothes and wash as usual, thoughtful and thoughtful.
Two people slept in the same bed, but they were still pretending to be asleep. Zhu Jintang was still the same as last night, he only ordered to go to sleep, then turned to the side and closed his eyes, leaving only Shen Yuechen with a back.
Shen Yuechen looked at his broad shoulders, sighed in his heart, and lay down lightly, without saying anything.
If he is not happy in his heart, why should he come? Since you are here, why bother to be angry, it makes people feel uncomfortable and unstable.
The two of them didn't talk all night, they didn't sleep well, and when they got up in the morning, they didn't say much.
Chun Ming and Cui Xin looked at something wrong, although the two of them usually don't talk much, but it was not such a cold atmosphere.
After breakfast, the old man took his family to the gate of the courtyard and sent Ruan Linluo out.
Ruan Linluo wiped her tears, and kowtowed to the old man and the old lady before getting into the car, which caused the two old men to be reluctant again and again.
Seeing her get into the carriage, Shen Yuechen couldn't help but have a sour eye socket, almost burst into tears, walked to the car, held her little hand stretched out from the window, and said with a smile: "Sister has a good journey, and she has time to write to me when she turns around." ”
Ruan Linluo burst into tears, biting her lip and not daring to make a sound, only nodded, then waved her hand to everyone again, put down the curtain, and cried.
Reluctantly sent Ruan Linluo away like this, the hearts of the elders in the family seemed to be missing a corner, untidy, and their mood was also low, either lacking or tired.
Seeing this, Li Shi looked at Shen Yuechen and said, "The two old people are uncomfortable, don't come here at night, so as not to upset them." ”
Shen Yuechen answered, and hurriedly went back with the maids.
Who knows, as soon as he returned to the house, he saw Qin Taoxi waiting in the house in a plain state.
Cui Xin hurriedly said: "Miss, Aunt Qin came over early in the morning and said that she wanted to say hello to Miss." ”
Recently, she rarely comes to make rules, always saying that she is not feeling well, and she is afraid that she will get sick when she sees the cold wind.
Shen Yuechen glanced at Qin Taoxi, and saw that she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her face was quite clear and ruddy, but her chin became sharper.
"The concubine greets the eldest grandmother, and the eldest grandmother is blessed."
"It's rare, Cui Xin still doesn't give Aunt Qin a seat, don't tire her up."
When Cui Xin heard this, she immediately brought an embroidery pier to her side.
Seeing this, Qin Taoxi was not anxious or angry, but blessed his body and said, "Thank you for your grandmother's seat." With that, he sat down straight.
Shen Yuechen asked lightly: "On such a cold day, it is not easy for my sister to come over, Cuixin hurriedly went to make a cup of boiling tea and sent it." ”
