Chapter 55: The Courtyard Forest
The woman who was called Luobi whimpered for a while, and then was carefully supported by Tang Jueyan to turn the alley, and crossed a narrow street to the door of a small courtyard.
Tapping the door knocker, after a while, I saw a forty or fifty-year-old mother-in-law half-open the door, tilted her head and looked out, saw the two of them, hurriedly pushed the door open, 'ah-ah' trotted and shouted: "Miss, you are back, what's the matter, the little face is white, don't do anything, my Honggu can't stand the fright, Miss?" β
Luo Bi didn't seem to change in one breath, Honggu was an anxious child, and asked Tang Jueyan again: "Young Master Tang, Miss, what's wrong?" Nothing happened, right? β
Seeing Honggu's anxious look of concern, Luo Bi eased up a little and said softly: "Honggu, I'm fine, quickly bring me in, go in and talk about it."
"Hey, slow down, Miss", Honggu pushed the door wider, Tang Jueyan picked up Luo Bi horizontally, entered the courtyard, put her on the bamboo chair under the flower stand in the courtyard, and half-knelt beside her, holding her hand tightly, with a worried and nervous look.
At this time, a red girl wearing a dark gray long kaner skirt and a white bun came with two cups of flower tea and put them on the stone table. Alas, Miss is also a hard-working person, thinking about it, tears fell suddenly.
"Hongguγγγ Honggu, what's wrong with you, okay, what are you crying about," Luo Bi half sat up and looked at her.
Honggu hurriedly wiped her eyes with a silk, picked up the tea on the table and handed it to Luobi: "Miss, Honggu is fine, I just think that Miss is really pitiful, this day is sad, Miss, don't be saddened by Honggu, drink hot tea to warm your heart!" β
"Where's my eldest brother? Honggu, has he been back for a few days? Luo Bi lifted the lid of the tea, and a pair of phoenix eyes waited for an answer.
Tang Jueyan said distressedly: "Some time ago, Brother Li went to me, saying that there was an important matter to do, which was as short as a few days, as long as no time, or even far away, and he asked me to take good care of you, telling you not to worry about him, let alone go to him!" β
"Far away? What does it mean to be far away? Honggu, tell me quickly, where did my eldest brother go? Luo Bi clasped the teacup, but did not feel the heat of the tea at all, a heart seemed to hang in her throat, since she heard that Ba Xiaotian was robbed in the palace, she couldn't sleep well, asked someone to go to the prison to ask, but said that Li Prison has been missing for more than ten days, is it brother? She didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Honggu knew that she couldn't hide it from her, sighed, turned around, groped in the room for a while, and then took a letter out and slowly handed it to Luo Bi: "At this time, the letter left by the young master before leaving, saying that if he comes back in three days, forget it, if he can't come back, he will give it to you, Miss!" β
Luo Bi put down the teacup in a panic and went to pick it up, but before the cup was put down, it broke in response, and the hot tea was sprinkled on the ground with green smoke.
"Who?" Tang Jueyan protected Luo Bi behind him, and searched around with a pair of cold eyes.
Knowing that someone was coming, Honggu also took the posture of a hen protecting her cubs and hugged her own young lady.
Luo Bi held the letter tightly on his chest with both hands, but his heart was pantothenic: Could it be that this is the last relic left by the eldest brother?
Just thinking about it, a crisp and translucent voice with a lazy charm floated in: "When it's not time to be sad, don't be sad!" β
