Chapter 52: I don't know if I know it
After breakfast in the early morning, Qian Yun sent the medicine to Qingxinzhai as usual, and said to Zhuying: "I still won't go in today, please bring the medicine to the master to drink." ”
Serving the master like this without looking at the face, the shallow rhyme has been going on for three months. She prepares the food and daily life, and then lets the little maids send it in, or do errands with a careless heart. The master didn't mention the shallow rhyme again, and if he saw it on weekdays, he just didn't see it.
Thinking like this, Zhuying took the medicine cup from Qianyun's hand and comforted, "Don't take it too seriously. ”
Qian Yun nodded silently and turned away without a word.
Zhuying looked at her departing back, sighed in her heart, and then entered the house and said, "Master, the medicine is here." ”
"Leave it alone." Yun Ci was writing and giving instructions on the paperwork, without raising his head.
Zhuying entered the house with the medicine, and when he saw Yun Ci's indifferent look, he hesitated for a moment, and said unprecedentedly: "Master, Miss Qianyun still hasn't come in......"
Yun Ci stopped writing, raised his eyes and said, "Don't say what you shouldn't say." The tone was cold, as if displeased, and as if indifferent.
Zhuying had to serve the decoction first, and Yun Ci drank it all: "You have served by my side for many years, and it is because of this that you should know the proportions." This sentence is through the face of who he hit, and Zhuying is clear in his heart.
"Master, in fact, Qianyun ......" was about to explain a few more words for Qianyun, but Zhuying heard a long-lost voice:
"Big brother!" As soon as Yun Xian entered the gate of Yunfu, he went straight to Qingxinzhai, with a joy on his face that could not be hidden: "As soon as I arrived in Toadzhou, I received a letter from Steward Yun, saying that you are going to get married!" It really hurt me to keep going, and I hurriedly finished my errand and rushed back! ”
Zhu Yingdeng's eyelids jumped, and he looked at Yun Ci again and again, and saw that his expression was as usual, so he saluted: "Third master." He walked out of the door.
mentioned his marriage, Yun Ci specially promised to leave Xiu in recent days, and did not let her serve in Qingxinzhai. Seeing that there was no one around at this moment, he was no longer taboo, and said to Yun Xian: "You really don't have to rush to the road, if you don't come back, this day will be postponed for a few days." ”
"Where can I push the good day and auspicious day?" Yun Xian said with a smile: "It's not a rush to come back to give you a hand and see what can help." ”
"It's not necessary to serve, how is the errand in Toadzhou?" Yun Ci was still able to ask calmly.
"Big brother is really detailed......," Yun Xian said as he handed over the paperwork he had been holding in his hand: "All the business, the situation before and after the renovation of the shop, are all here." Everything went well, and everything was taken care of. ”
Yun Ci took the paperwork, opened it and looked at it twice, and then put it on the case: "This is going to Chanzhou, how about the fourth aunt?" ”
"Fourth aunt?" Yun Xian was stunned for a moment, and said with an awkward expression: "She only stayed in Jiangdi for two days, acting mysteriously and secretly, and rejecting people thousands of miles away...... As a junior, I don't want to listen too much. ”
Yun Ci nodded when he heard this. According to this, Luan Qing must have found that herb, and if she didn't find it, she would definitely try to send someone to send a letter back.
Thinking of this, Yun Ci said to Yun Xian again: "You go back to rest first, and invite the fourth aunt to come over for me by the way." ”
"Yes." Yun Xian bowed to the leader's order and left with the servants who had returned from afar.

As the day of Yun Ci's wedding got closer and closer, Izuku began to shut himself in the house to practice calligraphy, obeying Yun Ci's orders to close the door and not go out. The whole Yunfu is full of joy, with colorful lights and new repairs, just to welcome the upcoming hostess, Mrs. Lixinhou.
Even the subordinates have all bought new clothes, especially the servants and maids in Zhiyan Xuan, who can't wait to be brand new from head to toe. Dexiu is naturally no exception.
I heard that the Xia family invited the best embroidery girl in the world, rushed to work day and night, and made a unique wedding dress in March, decorated with pearls of the waves, shining and gorgeous;
I heard that the Xia family prepared a dowry of 9981 and 1,000 acres of fertile land as a dowry;
I heard that Mrs. Tai personally ordered Yunjinzhuang under the name of the Yun family to make weaving cloth, curtains, bedding, and curtains for Yun Ci's newlyweds...... Even the satin silk handkerchief covered by the newlyweds' wine requires the best materials and embroidery;
I heard that there has been an endless exchange in Yunfu recently, and all over the country have come to congratulate the wedding of the Marquis of Xin, and the congratulatory gifts received by Yunfu have filled the entire Fangfei Garden......
There is another month to be the wedding day of Yun Ci and Miss Xia's family, as the wedding date approaches, all kinds of news emerge in an endless stream, and they are full of joy, as if they want heaven and earth to rejoice.
The ninth day of the ninth month of September, for a long time, is the auspicious day chosen by Mrs. Tai for the wedding. Today, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15.
Looking back on last year, I was still chasing Hongyuan. There is no distinction between master and servant, there is no indifference and alienation, Yun Ci, Shen Yu and a few subordinates gathered together to eat at the table, and Yun Ci held his hand for the first time on that day, and wrote the word "month" hand in hand.
The warmth of the palm is clear and remaining, as if it were yesterday. It's just that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival full moon is destined to be appreciated by no one.
"Out of Xiu," he was stunned, but he knocked on the door of the house, "In the Yinxiang Drunken Moon Garden, there is a singing and drinking order at this time, but do you want to go and have fun together?" ”
"No, you can go." Out of Xiu Dun pen looked out the door: "I practice calligraphy." ”
"Out of Xiu ......" lost three points in an instant, pondered for a moment, and then stopped: "You...... I want to open some. In the eyes of many, you have been a great blessing......"
Hearing this, Izuxiu's eyes were still scattered on the paper, and he smiled wordlessly.
Seeing this, he hated to bite off his tongue, secretly slandered that he would not comfort people, and forcibly mouthed more.
"I've always been satisfied." After a while, Xiu blinked her long eyelashes slightly, and looked at Dan Xin with a slight smile: "I just don't want to join in the fun, I just want to study calligraphy quietly." ”
The flickering candle flame on the desk is reflected on the face of Izuxiu, and her eyes are as bright as water and bright as the moon, which is a gentle and touching trait, which can overshadow the night scene outside the window. Obviously he was smiling, and there was no reluctance, but he only felt that Xiu's smile was very lonely, which was inexplicably sour.
In the end, he didn't say more, just pretended not to know, and smiled as usual: "It's okay, you love to write the most." Then I'm going to play. ”
"Hmm." Izuku nodded: "Don't get drunk." ”
Seeing the faint goose-yellow figure disappear in the corner of the porch, Xiu silently pulled off the curtain tent, isolated the moonlight from the bottom of his eyes, and then sat back in front of the desk, and rewrote the word "month" with a pen.
After a long year, she was finally able to write the word well. "Skimming like a dagger, squeezing like a knife, and having a slender hook to be very thin", what he taught her, she always remembered.
It's just that I don't know if he still remembers, or how long he can remember.
"What are you doing?" A clear and shallow voice recalled Izuxiu's thoughts. The half-open door was pushed open from the outside again, and it was Yunci and Bamboo Shadow.
Out of Xiu hurriedly put down the pen, and got up: "Master Hou." "It is false to say that he is not happy, for on such a festive occasion, he can leave the whole house and deign to come to the courtyard where the maid lives, even if it is just to see her, which can move her for a long time.
Loved so humbly.
At this moment, I saw that the bamboo shadow had pushed Yun Ci into the house, and when he saw the master raise his hand to signal him to retreat, he retreated again, and firmly closed the door of the house from the outside.
"Such a festival, the reunion of people and the moon, why did you come over?" Izuku pursed her lips and asked.
"It's such a festival, and the people and the moon are reunited, so I should come over." After that, Yun Ci had skipped this topic, looked at the table and asked, "What are you writing?" ”
"It's okay, it's just practice." Izuku replied lightly.
As soon as the words fell, I saw that Yun Ci had already pushed the wheelchair forward, picked up the paper on the bookcase, and looked down at the word "moon" on the paper.
Just this one word has brought back the past of a year ago. It's just that everything is different now. Yun Ci didn't understand in his heart, and suddenly his intestines were full of knots: "Out of Xiu's ......"
"How?" Izumi smiled to himself and asked, "Bad writing?" ”
"How could it be?" Yun Ci looked at the words on the paper intently, thought about it, and said, "You and I have a drink today?" Well? ”
"Don't you drink?"
"It's okay to have a drink once in a while."
When the treasure mirror rises in the sky, the fairy in the clouds is silent. At this moment, the faintly audible silk and bamboo outside the window are all things outside the object, and they will never disturb the loneliness of the two.
The sound of the glass luminous cup is crisp and pleasant, and the two of them exchange the cup and drink it all.
Xu is wine can strengthen courage, and it can make people confess, Yun Ci drank a glass, only to feel a heat in his head, trying to say something: "Out of Xiu, I ...... with Miss Xia"
"Master Hou." Izumi whispered, "Aren't you okay if you don't mention this tonight?" ”
Yun Ci held the wine glass and was silent for a moment: "Okay." Seeing Xiu again, her face was still as usual.
"Are you complaining about me in your heart?" He still couldn't help it.
Izumi only lowered his eyes and sighed: "I have no right to complain." It is a great blessing for you to love such an unclean body. ”
"Out of Xiu!" Yun Ci said angrily.
"Master Hou, don't blame, I lost my words, and I punished myself with a cup." After that, she poured herself a drink, and said: "As a marquis of Lixin, it is understandable for you to marry a wife and take a concubine and extend incense. I...... Never complained, only grateful. ”
The same two words "out of Xiu ......" are repeatedly whispered between the clouds, and each time they are called, the meaning is different. Fang is angry, and now he is helpless.
"I said I wouldn't let you mention it, but I did." Izuku laughed at herself: "Why don't you tell me about your acquaintance with the little marquis?" I've always wondered how you can be so different from him, so you can be so good? ”
Speaking of Shen Yu, Yun Ci naturally thought of the love poison brought out of the womb. was thinking about how to answer, but saw that Xiu's face suddenly changed, and he covered his mouth and retched.
"Out of Xiu!" Yun Ci stretched out his hand to probe, but Izuku had already patted his chest with his backhand, took a breath, and said, "It's okay, I think I was in a hurry to drink." ”
This time, it was Yun Ci's turn to change his face, and he hurriedly reached out to pinch her pulse, and for a moment, his heart was already full of mixed tastes.
How much I once wanted a child that belonged to her and him, and now I have finally waited for this moment. However...... This kid couldn't have come at the right time.
"You're almost three months pregnant." Yun Ci said in a calm voice.
"Pregnant!" Izumi was first surprised, and then rejoiced. The words of Yun Ci that night are vivid in his ears, and he once said that he wanted her to give birth to a child for him.
But this joy had just risen, and it had been extinguished by one sentence: "Out of Xiu, this child can't stay." ”
