Chapter 169: Who Says a Thousand Styles (2)
The evening at the end of March is neither hot nor cold, and the best time to take a leisurely stroll after the sun sets, especially for people who have just recovered from a serious illness like Chuxiu. In the fragrant drunken moon garden, the moonlight star is sparsely embellished, the breeze is faintly woven between the green bamboos, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing and refreshing.
Shizi Yuncheng began to take over the affairs of Yunfu after he fell ill, and worked for Mrs. Xie. Recently, I have encountered accounting problems that I don't understand, and at this moment I am asking for advice from Xiu one by one. Danxin and Qianyun stood on one side, looking at the nominal mother and son's words, they were all emotional.
Yun Cheng looked too much like his master Yun Ci, and on this dark night, they had an illusion, as if they were still standing in front of them. It's a pity that the truth is tragic, and it has been more than five years since Hou Yunci passed away.
If the master is still there, how can the Yun family go through all these years of hardship, and let the widowed mother-in-law and daughter-in-law work hard to support. Every time I think of this, the shallow rhyme and light heart can't help but be gloomy. Fortunately, the sunset had set, the lights and shadows were melancholy, and Izuku and Yun Cheng talked energetically, and they didn't find anything unusual about these two maids.
Yun Cheng's questions were one after another, and Izumi answered them carefully, but in the end, he didn't know that it was too late.
"Is my mother mentally deformed? Then I'll ask you again tomorrow. Yun Cheng was too tired to say goodbye.
Izuxiu was also afraid that he would say too much in one breath, and Yun Cheng couldn't remember it, so he smiled back: "It's okay, these places I said today, you go back and work hard, so you can think about it." ”
Yun Cheng nodded, and his handsome face reflected Yuehua, just like an old man: "Then I will accompany you back to Zhiyanxuan." ”
As soon as Yun Cheng's words came out, as if she had mentioned something about Xiu, she thought about it, and suddenly asked, "Cheng'er, you should be fourteen this year?" ”
"Exactly."
"It's all my negligence, when you entered the mansion was less than ten years old, you naturally lived with me in Zhiyanxuan, and now that you are older, it is time to move out. Recently, you have been paying attention to any garden in this house, just open your mouth. Izuku paused for a moment, and then said: "Changfeng Xuan, forget it, that's your third uncle's garden, and he will come back sooner or later." ”
Yun Cheng hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "But it's up to my mother to decide." ”
"Traditionally, you should open the park at the age of thirteen, but there were so many things last year that I remembered it a few times and forgot about it." Izuku said with a smile.
Yun Cheng had a slight reluctance on his face, and was about to say a few more words, but the housekeeper Yun Feng reported in at this time, saw that there were many people in the garden, and stood still without speaking.
Yun Cheng saw that Yun Feng wanted to speak and stopped, knowing that he had something to discuss with Chuxiu alone, so he left with a shallow rhyme. Seeing this, Danxin also smiled: "I'll go and serve a cup of tea to Steward Yun." As he spoke, he turned into a cubicle in the garden.
Yun Feng glanced at the disappearing goose-yellow back, and then said to Izuxiu: "A few days ago, the brothers and sisters of the Ming family came to visit, and I have conveyed it according to what you explained, but the two brothers and sisters insisted on coming to visit you, only saying that they had important matters to discuss. ”
"Something important?" A smile appeared in her eyes: "Except for the debt, my Yun clan has nothing to do with the Ming clan. ”
Yun Feng also sighed: "They are very persistent, and at the beginning they only sent a decent subordinate over; A few days ago, I changed the housekeeper to send the prayer post; Today, Mingzhang himself came over in person and sent another post...... Said I wanted to see you no matter what. ”
"It's really persistent." Izuku laughed again: "Then how did you send him away?" ”
Yun Feng pondered for a moment and replied truthfully: "I said that Madam, you have just recovered from a serious illness, and there are too many families who have come to greet you, and you are not empty now. ”
Izuku chuckled, and nodded with satisfaction: "This is a very good idea, you go back to him, if you really want to come to the door, you can't get in line, let them line up first." ”
She said casually and indifferently, without a trace of emotional ups and downs, and Yun Feng couldn't guess what Xiu was thinking. He only knew that with his understanding of Yun Ci and his uncle Yun Zhong, the Yun family must have a grudge against the Ming family, and it was also a deep grudge, so he would set up a bureau that had been carefully arranged for six years, and spend this huge amount of gold to calculate Mingzhang.
The timing of Ming's fall was too coincidental, and with those gossips, Yun Feng had to think so. Seeing that Chuxiu didn't care about this matter, he suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he was afraid that there was fraud in this, so he couldn't help but persuade: "Madam, since the Ming brothers and sisters are so persistent, what is the important thing about Xu Shi?" Or...... Are you relieved? ”
Hearing this, the light of Izu's eyes fell on Yun Feng, as if he was surprised that he spoke for the Ming brothers and sisters. Seeing Yun Feng's face with a frank look, he withdrew his eyes and lowered his eyebrows.
Yun Feng saw that Izuxiu had not spoken, thinking that he had annoyed her, and was about to confess, when two words suddenly fluttered in his ears: "It's okay." Izuku paused and asked, "What day is it?" ”
"March 28."
"Now I don't preside over the feed for the time being, and no one comes to me to settle the money and account books at the end of the month, and I will be confused this day." Izumi smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "You tell the Ming brothers and sisters that I have a tight day, so teach them to come back on April 18." ”
"Why April 18?" Yun Feng is puzzled.
"Casually." Izuku smiled and replied: "You have to dry them for twenty days before they can do it." ”
"Then I'll tell them tomorrow." Yun Feng was ordered.
Izuku said "um" and didn't say anything more.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, making the night of the incense drunken moon garden a little weird. Maybe Izumi didn't feel anything, but Yun Feng felt embarrassed. At the beginning, he was obsessed with marrying twice, but he was closed, and the second time he encountered Yun Ci's death, which also made him see this woman's deep affection for Yun Ci. At this point, I don't dare to continue to think extravagantly.
But the heart seems to be uncontrollable, and always remembers the sound and smile about Xiu, so she has to use her identity as a member of Yunjinzhuang to send a few well-woven gorgeous skirts on her birthday every year. In the past few years, what Yun Feng is most eager for is that at the end of March every year, stewards from all over the world come to report the accounts, which is the only time he can see her openly in a year, and he can also talk to her openly.
Year after year, he also witnessed her legendary process from a little mute maid to Mrs. Chuxiu. Others may not know how much effort he has put into paying attention to the affairs of Xiu, but over the years, Xiu has been decisive, decisive, and famous, and he knows the details of the inside story, almost as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
Whenever he inquired about his uncle Yun Zhong, his uncle would always warn him to die, but ...... The identity gap has been different, isn't he allowed to fall in love? Can't you hear from her? The wife who married in a hurry finally found out that he belonged to him, and when she was three months pregnant, she was sad and slipped, and finally died of depression.
It's not that he doesn't feel guilty, but since the moment he mistakenly broke into Zhiyanxuan's courtyard, that shocking glance has destined him to care about her in this life. Even if you can't get it, if you can watch it every day, you will feel satisfied.
Fortunately, the emperor had eyes, and his uncle recommended him to take over the position of housekeeper before he died, and Xiu agreed. In this way, he can come to Yunfu justifiably, and have the opportunity to see each other every day under the same roof.
To be able to see her every day and be the head of Yunfu again is no regret to have today.
Thinking about it, I can't help but think far. Yun Feng sighed silently in his heart, and he didn't know if it was a sigh of satisfaction or a sigh of greed. He lowered his eyes and only used his peripheral vision to see Xiu, although he couldn't see her expression clearly, but for some reason, he felt that she was also looking at him.
Sure enough, but I heard Xiu slowly ask, "How long has it been since Steward Yun lost his wife?" ”
Yun Feng was stunned, she didn't expect her to ask this question, but she replied truthfully: "Two whole years." Thinking of his deceased wife, he also felt guilty in his heart: "It's me who can't live with her." ”
"Two years...... It's been so long, and the cloud butler hasn't thought about continuing the string? Izuku asked again.
After hearing this, Yun Feng's first reaction was to ask Chu Xiu: Hou Ye has been dead for five or six years, why haven't you thought about remarrying? But he knew that he could not ask this, so he had to remain silent and not answer.
Izuku remembered what the old housekeeper Yun Zhong said before he died, and at this moment, when he saw his silent appearance, he also believed seven or eight points. If this matter had been put in the past, as long as the other party did not pierce it, she would definitely pretend not to know, or pretend to be relaxed and natural; But she was seriously ill and walked before the ghost gate, and she also knew that she should face it calmly.
Just like being able to calmly face Nie Peixiao's show of love and have the courage to meet the Ming brothers and sisters, for Yun Feng's infatuation and mispayment, knowing that it would end without a problem, why should he pretend not to know and delay him anymore? It's better to find out.
Thinking of this, Izuku asked Yunfeng with a smile: "There are not many others in our house, one is that there is a lot of money, and the other is that there are many girls." If you can't look down on it, you can also look outside to pick and choose, with your current identity, young and promising, you must be able to pick a lovely person. ”
Hearing this, Yun Feng just smiled bitterly: "About fate hasn't arrived yet, and I don't force it." ”
"I'm not urging you, I just see that you are busy going in and out of the house every day, and there is no caring person in the house." Izumi explained lightly.
What else can Yun Feng say? I had to reply to the previous sentence: "Thank you Madame for your concern." ”
Izuku didn't say anything more, and was silent for a moment and said, "Go and call Danxin out, it's time to go back to Zhiyanxuan." ”
"Yes." Yun Feng received the order and went to the cubicle. Fang Cai lightly excused herself by making tea to avoid it, and now it was time to call her out. Yun Feng thought about it while walking, and felt that Danxin was also a good woman, informed and interesting, and she didn't feel bored and bored with her.
It was just a thought that came to mind, Yun Feng suddenly paused, turned to look at Chu Xiu, and blurted out with a hot head: "Madam, I want to ask to marry a light-hearted girl." ”
Since it's hard to fall in love with anyone anymore, why not marry a woman you admire? What's more, Danxin is the big girl next to Izumi, and she is quite important, if I marry Danxin, can I also be more intimate with Izumi in disguise?
If you can't marry your sweetheart, then marry a woman who is closest to her. If he can really marry Danxin as a continuation, Yun Feng believes that he will do better than the first time when he is a husband for the second time, at least he will not let Danxin repeat the mistake of his deceased wife.
At this moment, Izumi was also stunned, she didn't expect Yun Feng to open her mouth to ask for a marriage...... However, what was even more stunned was that she followed the moonlight towards Yunfeng, and happened to see Dan Xin standing in front of the door of the cubicle, just a few steps behind him.
The goose-yellow shirt glowed with a soft and smooth beauty under the moonlight, and stood on the spot indifferently.
