Chapter 60: Drifting Away and Becoming Silent



Yun Ci really did what he said. After September and October, he really sent Xiu to Xia Yanran to serve his newlywed wife full-time in her daily life and washing. The news came from a faint heart, and after Chu Xiu heard about it, he didn't say a word and silently agreed.

The next day, Chuxiu made a special trip to Qianyun to ask Yunyun about all aspects of Yunci's diet and daily life, and compared those rules to figure out Xia Yanran's habits. On the first day of October, she officially ended her more than a month of recuperation and returned to work.

Shen Yu has not left since he participated in Yunci's wedding, and has stayed in Fangzhou. These days, he has comforted Xiu a lot, and he has also changed his way to regulate her body. Regarding Shen Yu's behavior of staying in Yunfu all the time, Chuxiu didn't want to guess whether it was related to herself and how much it had to do with herself, so she only took a good handle of it and kept an appropriate distance from Shen Yu.

And Shen Yu didn't mention anything about taking her away again. Every day he seems to be very busy and leisurely, but he is often worried and thoughtful.

The days passed without a word, and Chu Xiu put away the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and no longer practiced calligraphy. The piano equipment and the four treasures of the study room given by Yun Ci were also shelved by her. In addition to being busy in the morning, noon and evening, in her spare time, she is mostly in a daze, or helping other little maids in Zhiyanxuan to do errands and take a hand.

No one knows what Izumi was thinking in her day-to-day silence. Even indifferent hearts didn't dare to ask. And when Izuku is silent, it also increases day by day. In the end, even as she used to be when she lost her voice, if her master didn't ask, she could not say a word all day.

This year's winter is a bit special, in the past, when it was winter, the sun was always shining in Yanlan City, but this year there was a lot of rain suddenly. In three or two days, it will be a trickle, not a violent storm, not even a moderate rain, it will fall like a bead with a broken thread, and it will fall endlessly.

It seems that even the sky is sad for someone.

As soon as it was early in the morning, it began to rain again. Izuku can't remember how many days I haven't seen the sun, and this rainy weather really makes people feel gloomy. She held an umbrella and came all the way to Yun Ci and Xia Yanran's house, and led two little maids behind her, waiting for Xia Yanran to get up and call people.

Qianyun came a little later than Xiu, and the two stood side by side outside the door, both staring without squinting, each waiting for the summons of the master.

"Squeak" sounded, and the maid on duty opened the door sleepily and said, "The two sisters go in, Master Hou and Mrs. are awake." ”

Qianyun and Izuku didn't dare to delay, and led people into the house before and after.

Wash towels, wipe faces, change clothes, grooming...... This set of processes has been done for more than a month, and he is already very proficient. Without squinting, she tied the last ribbon on Xia Yanran's coat, and then turned to the screen, beckoning the combing maid to comb her hair to make up for Xia Yanran, and she was holding the bead and cui makeup beside her, letting Xia Yanran choose them one by one.

On the side of the screen, Qian Yun was half-kneeling on the ground, carefully arranging the hem of Yun Ci's robe. All morning, I heard only the footsteps of the maids, and occasionally the slight sound of the wind brought by the swing of the sleeves, and there was no other sound.

Today, Xia Yanran was extra careful in her makeup, and until Yun Ci cleaned up, she was still drawing her eyebrows and eyes, and she didn't mean to stop for a minute.

"Pinyan, move faster." Yun Ci urged in a low voice behind the screen: "Mother must have gotten up." ”

Xia Yanran smiled low at the bronze mirror: "I know, you walk ahead first, and I'll trot to catch up in a while." ”

Yun Ci hesitated for a moment, then urged again, and walked out of the door.

He took the medicine again, and Izuku stared at the jewelry in the makeup, not knowing what to do in his heart. Since Yun quit and got married, she has never seen him in a wheelchair, as if he is walking like a fly every day, and he looks no different from ordinary people.

What is the purpose of overdrawing his body like this, not hesitating to take the medicine that hurts his body? Or, for whom?

"Out of Xiu," Xia Yanran suddenly opened her mouth at this time, "Today's burning body is not happy, I will allow her to rest for a day." Take her errand. ”

"Yes." Out of Xiu frowned back to his senses, leaned over to receive the order.

Xia Yanran beckoned her to put the makeup on the dresser: "Go and clean up the couch first, so as not to let people see the joke." ”

Izumi saluted yes, put down the makeup and walked back to the screen, picked up the half-hanging sarong bed curtain, and prepared to pick up the bed. As soon as she lifted the futon, a lewd smell came to her face, which made her pause in the movement of her hands.

I don't want to know what this smell implies. Izuku can almost imagine how the newlyweds intertwined their limbs at night, as much as they could. Not to mention those messy sheets. The familiar ambergris is the unique taste of Yunci, mixed with the fragrance of women's fat powder, but on this bed sheet and bedding, it is so unfamiliar that it makes people palpitate.

There seemed to be some cramping in the abdomen, and a stream of heat slowly gushed out. In just a moment, it has caused the pain in the abdomen.

She endured the pain and folded the bedding and bed sheets, hugged her in her arms and said to Xia Yanran: "Madam, I'll send the things to the Huan bathroom." ”

At this time, Xia Yanran had already finished dressing up, turned to walk out of the dresser behind the screen, and nodded: "It's hard work today." Master Hou and I will have breakfast at Mrs. Tai's, and you and Qianyun don't have to say hello. ”

Izumi hugged the quilt cover and sheets in her arms, saluted and turned around.

Just took two steps, but heard Xia Yanran exclaim behind him: "Out of Xiu!" ”

Out of the Xiu turned back inexplicably: "What else does Madame have to say?" ”

"Silly girl!" Xia Yanran smiled and walked closer quickly, and whispered to her: "You are here in Kwai Shui!" It's all dyed on the skirt, go back and change! After that, she instructed the hair-combing maid beside her: "You will send the things in your hands to the Huan Bathroom." She couldn't let Yun Ci see it, it was Chuxiu who carried these filth out.

The maid who combed her hair said yes in a low voice, took the sheets and bedding and went out first.

Izuku was a little surprised. Since she slipped in August, she has not been to Kwai Shui for two months, but her body has not recovered. Now that Kwai Shui has finally come again, does that also mean that her body has recovered? Or is she not yet infertile?

No wonder there was a pain in the lower abdomen, it turned out that it was Kwai Shui who had not come for a long time. Speaking of which, this should be a good thing. Izuku lowered her head slightly in surprise: "Thank you, madam." If Xia Yanran hadn't reminded her that she would have been embarrassed all the way out.

"You wait." Xia Yanran turned to the screen and took a thin cloak and handed it to Xiu: "Put it on, you can cover it." The tone was as considerate and gentle as ever.

If you talk about this Mrs. Hou, she is unanimously praised in the house, maybe because she has not yet received the feed, she treats everyone kindly, not to mention the close subordinates such as Xiu, there are things to reward from time to time.

It has only been more than a month since she served Xia Yanran, and the small makeup in the house is already full of hairpins, bracelets, earrings, and bracelets...... It's nothing more than some ornaments of the daughter's house.

Our Mrs. Hou is famous for her love of dressing up and can dress up. Since marrying into Yunfu for two months, he has never worn the same clothes every day. Even the cloak handed to Xiu was made by Yunjin Buzhuang under the name of the Yun family, which is unique in the world, and it is the only one.

Out of Xiu's thoughts, a woman is a person who pleases herself, she has a husband who loves her, and she should care so much about her appearance.

Xiu didn't say any more polite words, and was inexplicably moved in her heart for a moment, tied her cloak and walked out of the door behind Xia Yanran.

Outside the courtyard, Yun Ci was holding an umbrella by the bamboo shadow, waiting for Xia Yanran in the independent drizzle, although the sky was dark, the white clothes were dazzling.

Yun Ci looked at Xia Yanran, and seemed to look behind her through her, and saw that Xiu had an extra cloak on her body, and he looked back at Xia Yanran gently, as if approving.

Izuku was not aware of the turmoil between his husband and wife, leaned over and saluted Yun Ci, and watched the two leave, before turning around and walking in the opposite direction.

As soon as Yun Ci walked out of the garden, he suddenly stopped and said to Xia Yanran: "I have something left, you wait for me for a while." Then he hurried back to the garden.

In the hazy rain, a corner of the delicate cloak can be faintly discerned. Yun Ci narrowed his eyes and looked at Izumi's graceful back, and his eyes sharpened to see that the hem of the cloak was blown away by the wind, and there was a faint blood red inside. At this glance, he seemed to have calmed down, and turned around and re-exited the weeping arch.

From beginning to end, the bamboo shadow held an umbrella and followed him, and neither of the master and servant said a word.

*****

When she returned to her residence, she quickly changed her clothes and washed her clothes with water. The two masters did not have breakfast in Zhiyanxuan, which made her and Qianyun a lot more relaxed, and the latter had returned to the house.

Izuku thought about it, folded Xia Yanran's cloak in her hand, and knocked on the door of Qianyun's room.

"What?" Qianyun's expression was still faint, and she looked at Izumi who was standing at the door.

Izumi looked at the cloak in her hand with low eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I accidentally soiled Madame's cloak this morning, I think such a valuable cloth, I'm afraid that it will be torn by reckless hand washing." That's why I want to ask the mother of the Huan Washroom how to start. ”

Qianyun glanced at the cloak in Chuxiu's hand, and said coolly: "I'm afraid that if it's washed, Madame won't wear it again." ”

"Madame can't wear it, I have to wash this cloak too." Out of Xiu pulled out a smile, and said humbly: "I have been in the house for a short time, and I used to serve pen and ink, and I am not familiar with the mothers in the Huan Washroom, I am afraid that it will be against the etiquette to rush over, and I want to ask Sister Qianyun to say hello on my behalf." ”

Qian Yun thought about it when she heard this, but she didn't refuse, took out a small piece of paper from the shelf in the room, and handed it to Xiu: "This is the laundry ticket for Master Hou, it was not used up last month, give this small ticket to the Huan Washing Room along with the cloak, and they will wash it." You just need to know when to pick it up. ”

It turns out that you have to have a ticket to wash clothes in each room, and presumably Yun Ci and Mrs. Tai's clothes are the most valued. Chuxiu politely took the laundry ticket, thanked him again and again, and went to the Huan Washroom.

The person in charge of the Huan Washroom is called "Mother Jing", and when he saw that Xiu was from Zhiyanxuan, he was holding a laundry ticket for Yunci, but he took the cloak without saying a word. Out of Xiu exchanged a few polite words with him, and then walked to Zhiyanxuan with an umbrella.

As soon as he was halfway there, there was a sudden movement behind him. Before Izuku had time to look back to see who it was, he had been pulled into the rockery by the man who covered his mouth and nose, and his hands became lighter......
