Chapter 9: Returning on a Snowy Night

Back to Jinghua Xie, Sanxi really stopped talking about the rolling garden.

Zisu asked Sanxi, Sanxi didn't reply, and then asked in a hurry, Sanxi said: "Miss Su asked the girl." ”

Zisu was concerned about Yu Qi and wanted to ask clearly. Before and after she asked, there were two incidents one after another.

Coming out of the rolling garden, Grandma Huiyuan gave everyone an umbrella. The umbrella was now resting outside the door. Zi Su saw the two of them enter the house, and the umbrella was thrown at the door and was not allowed in. Because he saw that Yu Qi looked a little sleepy, he asked Sanxi and couldn't answer the answer, so he walked out, picked up the umbrella at the door, and waited to receive it, and happened to see the word "East" printed on the umbrella.

Looking at it, you will know that this umbrella belongs to Dongfu.

Zisu looked at it for a while, then shook off the snow on the umbrella, and when he saw that the snow was not exhausting, he went inside to find a cloth to wipe it. When I went to the inside, I saw Yu Qi crooked on the kang with his eyes closed and recuperated, covered with a goose down quilt.

Zisu took the cloth and went to tuck the quilt for Yu Li. Xing Yu Qi was really sleepy, and she acted like this, and Yu Qi didn't even open her eyes to look at her.

I went to clean the snow and collected the umbrella.

Zisu turned around and entered the door, and saw Sanxi huddled at the door looking at the snow in the yard, and was stunned.

Zi Su said: "It's weird cold, what are you still standing here?" The girl's quilt is thin, wouldn't it be good for you to add another bed? Dress yourself up! ”

Sanxi didn't move, still standing quietly at the door.

Zisu saw that she was wooden, so she didn't say anything more, walked back to the room with the umbrella, put the umbrella down, and went into the bedroom to bring a bed of fluff, waiting to cover Yu Qi's body. Yu Qi woke up.

Yu Qi took Zisu's hand, suddenly felt a chill, and covered it and said, "On such a cold day, my sister should lick her clothes." Come up and cover it! ”

Zisu turned his head to look at the three joys outside, stopped talking, and sat on the edge of the kang with half his body on his side.

Yu Qi smiled: "What's the matter? ”

Zisu shook his head and sighed.

Yu Qi said: "You don't look like a normal day. Raising his eyes outside, he saw Sanxi's shadow slanting half a knot, and dragged his shadow inside, so he said, "Isn't she cold outside?" ”

Zisu frowned and said, "Since you don't want to say it, I won't ask." You're like this, but it makes me feel uneasy. ”

Yu Qi got up slightly, pulled Zisu over, lifted the quilt on his body and gave it to Zisugai, and said, "I just came back and felt tired." Nothing. Sister don't worry. ”

After speaking, Yu Qi coughed.

Seeing this, Zisu was anxious. Break free from Yu Qi's hand and hurriedly pour tea.

The tea was held to Yu Qi, patted her back with one hand, and said: "It's a cold day, and you can't run around the world by people." The body is its own, others may not cherish it, but it is your own cherished cherishment. ”

Yu Qi took the tea and took a sip. After moistening his throat, he didn't cough anymore, so he breathed a long sigh of relief and smiled at Zisu.

Zisu took back the cup and said, "After you go out, Shou Zhongju will let someone send a charcoal cage later." I also said that when you come back, you will raise a fire and warm up. I haven't sent it yet, and I see they're too busy to forget. ”

Yu Qi said with a smile: "I heard Sister Xianglian say that it didn't snow until more than 20 years in previous years, but this year it was early, maybe they didn't expect that there were things for the winter that were not taken out." ”

Zisu sneered: "They are all smoking, if you don't take it out, you believe it?" ”

Yu Qi said: "It's cold outside, my sister doesn't have to be cold outside, and she is cold in her heart." It doesn't hurt to look down. It's a big deal, why bother with my sister. ”

Zisu bit her lip, wanted to hold back her words, and then said angrily: "I don't know, I really think that you are a person with no identity outside, and you are perfunctory everywhere." I know, but I don't have a good eye. That's all I sigh about. If you say that your heart is cold, it can't be cold like this. ”

Yu Qi smiled: "It's because of the snow outside." ”

Zisu snorted: "We have nothing to say about our friendship every day? ...... to this day"

Zisu refused to give up after all, wondering what happened to them in the Rolling Garden. Yu Qi left from that side, feeling unhappy, and when he came back, he asked Sanxi not to pass words to Zi Suchaos, and he didn't want to mention it, thinking that he would just endure it. Thinking deeply, in the end, it was Huiyuan who faced himself with his identity, making himself unhappy and uneasy.

At this moment, Zisu was aggressive, and he had to ask something, so he brought out the old feelings of the two. After listening to this, Yu Qi's heart tingled.

Yu Qi said: "Sister thinks a lot." In the past, my sister was a very quiet person, but when she came here, she changed for me. ”

Zisu sneered: "Hasn't the girl changed too?" ”

Yu Qi wanted to talk about something else, but he covered up the past, and was reluctant to mention the matter of the Rolling Garden. Who knows, there is still entanglement. For fear that Zisu would have a misunderstanding in his heart, so Yu Qi grabbed Zisu and said in a low voice: "Sister knows that I am not that kind of person. How can I hide something from my sister? Today passed, one time, it was cold, I felt cold, and I was tired. Second, my sister doesn't like to deal with the people in this house, and if I talk about them, it will add trouble and unhappiness to my sister. My sister knows that they are not as good as outsiders, what can they do, that is, the parents are short, and I just responded to the scene. ”

Zisu was smart, and when she saw that Yu Li's words were insincere, she said: "It's really rare for a girl to be helpless to come to this realm. ”

After speaking, Zisu withdrew his hand and sneered. To go.

Yu Qi stopped her and said, "Sister! ”

Zi Su said: "Except for you, there is no one in the world who can make me worry about this heart. The girl is willing to cover her heart, so let's cover it! If you don't have a happy day, wait for the snow to melt and the sun will come out and then take it out and sprinkle it yourself. ”

Yu Qi's face turned red, and tears swirled in his eyes. Zisu didn't open his eyes and deliberately didn't pay attention.

Yu Qi wiped the corners of her eyes slightly, and said with a straight face: "I'm not a xenophobic sister." ”

Zisu took advantage of the situation and said: "Then why did Sanxi come back with an annoyed face and refused to say." Isn't it your support? Even if I'm stupid, I can't see what's on my mind in your situation? You're really nice, you didn't act like this, I don't think I care. And put on this face, how can I think? ”

Yu Qi was full of apologies. The sub-prime sentences poke the heart.

Zisu said again: "My experience with you is the love of the past. It's not comparable to the three of you who endure humiliation, life and death. ”

Yu Qi wiped his eyes tightly again, and said hurriedly: "Then I said, sister should not be angry." ”

Zisu turned her head to look at Yu Qi, expecting her to continue.

Yu Qi licked her dry lips, and slowly told her what happened all the way to the Rolling Garden, and then said about Huiyuan: "My sister just said that the three of us endure humiliation and share the love of life and death. Maybe it was because Huiyuan had these feelings before she got married, and after she got married, we didn't talk to each other anymore. When we see each other today, she is unfamiliar with me. To say I don't mind is to lie to myself. I don't want my sister to worry, so I don't want to mention it too much, but my sister doesn't mind knowing it more than I do. ”

Zisu relieved her mood, and was full of distress, held her hand tightly, and said, "Look at Sanxi." Motioning to lift her chin and head out, "She minded more than I do." It's all about you. ”

Yu Qi moved his body and wanted to stretch his neck to shout three joys outward, but Zisu shook his head and raised his hand to signal not to scream. Zi Su said: "It's a very simple thing, what does it matter to you?" It's hard not to say it for yourself, and it makes yourself unhappy. ”

Yu Qi nodded gratefully.

Zisu said: "Let her be quiet for a while!" She was eaten by a dog full of loyalty, and she may be wondering what she had done wrong!" I'll tell her about it later. ”

After a pause, I saw that Yu Qi was speechless. Zisu said again: "Mr. Yao is right, at this juncture, I simply opened up and asked the old lady about them, and told her all the wrongful things in your family." said that it was framed by the people of Zhuangfu, and asked them to give a reason. ”

Yu Qi sighed: "Sister is confused. What evidence is there that the people in this house have framed my house? I was dizzy that day, and I thought so when I heard Mr. Yao. Now that I think about it calmly, Mr. Yao listened to outsiders, I heard Mr. Yao say, can it be evidence? Once you ask, don't talk about startling the snake, I'm afraid that it will be hopeless to find out later. ”

Zisu nodded.

Yu Qi said: "Don't hide it from my sister, I haven't slacked off in the past few months. Sister, I have been secretly figuring out the way to Zhuangfu. I have almost traveled to the four prefectures of east, west, north and south. On that day, Master Bojing said: 'When you are in danger, the first class to find a way out is the first priority'. Her words reminded me all the time that even if they were to get rid of us that day, we would have been prepared to find a way to escape. Going deeper, where there is a road, there is something, so I pay attention to that. But it's not, you look at the mirror Huaxie, there is that secret passage, isn't it also touched by us? ”

Zi Su was about to say something, and suddenly Sanxi's voice came from outside: "The girl is inside!" ”

After listening, Yu Qi hurriedly booed Zisu, and the two returned to normal. In a blink of an eye, Zhu'er and Sanxi came in, and the first few brute force mothers-in-law carried a charcoal cage, and the fire in the cage was booming. When he got to the house, Zhu'er first saluted Yu Qi, and then beckoned back.

For a while, the brute force mother-in-law carried the cage in, and a girl held a felt blanket behind her, spread it out on the ground, and then let the mother-in-law put the cage on it.

Zhu'er smiled: "Let the girl suffer the cold." Can the girl have fun at the big grandma's? ”

Before Yu Qi could reply, Zhu'er pointed to the girl behind her and called in, only to see the girl holding a few mouthfuls of exquisite soup woman.

Zhu'er took it, one for Yu Qi, one for Zisu, and the other for Sanxi. Zhu'er said: "It's cold in winter, it's indispensable." When the water in it was cold, I rushed to fill it with hot water, and when I went out, I held it to keep it warm. ”

Yu Qi said gratefully: "Thank you for being so thoughtful. ”

Zhu'er raised her hand and motioned to the girl behind her to go out, and said again: "The charcoal cage is newly made this year, and the passage has been improved to press soot." There are no other houses, and they still use the old cages from previous years. Just said that she was going to carry it for the girl, and she took it out, and the old lady remembered this and said that she would use a new one for the girl. That's why it's time to lose. ”

After Zisu heard this, her face turned red, just now she was talking about others being indifferent and not caring about Jinghua Xie, isn't it a slap in the face?

Zi Su was slightly happy, looked at the charcoal cage deeply, and said: "It's also a novelty, there is no smoke in it." ”

Zhu'er said with a smile: "The old lady used to say that when it comes to winter, she can't stand the smoke that fills the house." Now the girl is catching up with the time and using this. ”

Yu Qi thanked her a few times, and Zhu'er said before leaving: "Touxue has not been in good health for the past few days. When I came out, the old lady told me that the girl would come over for supper later, and she would not come out to eat. The girl will be more self-reliant. ”

After listening, Yu Qi wanted to get up and said to go over and look at the old lady. Zhu'er stopped: "It's an old illness, it'll be fine in a few days." Every year. Now the old lady is lying down, and the girl doesn't have to go over. ”

Yu Qi's face became spicy, and he said embarrassedly: "That...... Please serve my sister with all her heart. Later in the evening I went over to greet the old lady. ”

Zhu'er nodded in response, and took a few more rituals before leaving.

After Zhu'er left, Sanxi held the soup woman full of novelty, sat on the edge of the kang, hugged and looked at it.

Yu Qi smiled: "It's warmer?" ”

Sanxi smiled and nodded.

Yu Qi glanced at Zisu, and said to Sanxi: "I know that you are not happy in your heart, I told Sister Su." Your hands are warm, and your heart should be warm. You're not allowed to run outside and freeze, do you hear? ”

Sanxi stood up shyly, nodded fiercely, and couldn't stop smiling at Zisu.

Zi Su glanced at Yu Qi worriedly, and said distressedly: "The girl said that she should also take care of herself." Only when you are in good health can you do great things. ”

Yu Qi sighed and lowered his eyebrows. I listened to it.

After a while, Shouzhongju sent his mother-in-law to send two baskets of charcoal, and explained how to place it and how to add fire. By the time the explanation was finished, it was nearly late.

At that time, Yu Qi was holding the handrails of Zisu, and Sanxi held an umbrella to go to Shouzhongju for dinner.

When she arrived at Shouzhongju, as Zhu'er said, the old lady didn't come out to eat. The table was full of food and only Yu Qi ate alone. After a few bites, Yu Qi said that he was full and wanted to go in to visit the old lady Ann.

Unexpectedly, Zhu'er replied: "The old lady drank the ginseng soup and fell asleep again." ”

In this way, Yu Qi didn't dare to stay and disturb any longer, so he saluted at the door of the old lady's bedroom and withdrew independently.

Out of Shouzhongju, there was already a night of snow outside. Under the eaves door, there are red lights hanging high.

Yu Qi stood in the middle of the snow in the courtyard, stunned for a while, and wondered: Mother grew up here, and when was it like this? The sky is full of snow, silver makeup is everywhere, and the lights under the corridor are swaying?

Zisu held Yu Qi's hand and said, "Go back, girl, the night is getting colder." ”

Yu Qi Wangshou lived outside the door: "I want to go out for a walk." ”

Zisu looked at Sanxi worriedly, and Sanxi was also surprised when he held an umbrella.

Knowing that Yu Qi refused to go back, Sanxi handed the umbrella to Zisu and said, "Girl wait, I'll go back and get Tang Pozi." ”

After speaking, Sanxi ran back to Jinghua Xie. At this moment, Zisu took the umbrella and propped it up on the edge of Yu Qi. Yu Qi looked back at the three joys and thanked him, and he smiled. Raising his eyes to look outside the umbrella again, reflecting the lights of the whole house, and watching the snow drifting in the sky, Yu Qi was amazed by the beauty of the snowy night in the north, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand.

Receiving the snowflakes outside, Yu Qi said silently: "The mountains are far away at dusk, and the white houses are poor in the cold weather. Chaimen heard the dog barking, and returned to the people on a snowy night. Good snow and good nights, return to people and never return, and snub these snows. ”

As he spoke, he walked out the door.

Zi Su knew that she missed her mother again, so she kept silent.

When I got outside, I stood under the locust tree and looked in front of me, only to see the lights flickering, and the snow droplets in the sky became more and more dense. Yu Qi felt cold and retracted his cloak slightly.

Zisu said: "If the girl feels cold, let's go back!" ”

Yu Qi said: "Look at it for a while." ”

Zisu said: "There will be tomorrow, and I can't finish watching it." ”

Yu Qi coughed a few times and said, "Tomorrow's snow will fall, I look at the snow tonight." Irrelevant. ”

In this way, Zisu was silent. At this moment, Sanxi took Tang Pozi from inside, and without waiting for Yu Qi's reaction, he had already stuffed it into her hands.

Sanxi said: "It's really cold, I don't want to come out as soon as I get back to our house." Girl, let's go back! ”

Yu Qi turned her head to look at Zisu, only to see her two lips shaking, and Sanxi was shrunk in her collar with one neck.

Yu Qi pondered for a while, and then resolutely said: "Go back!" ”

Before he started, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance of the trail, and when he looked around, he saw a group of people picking up the lights and rushing here.

Yu Qi stopped when he was about to take and paused. After a while, the people in front of them came closer. I saw four servants carrying a soft bowl, there were people lying on it, and there was an umbrella on each side of the side, led by Zhuang Pu and his two personal servants, each holding a lantern in his hand. Followed by a panting Ayu.

Yu Qi's heart suddenly startled, and she went away, she was going to care about the words, but she didn't get to those people, and a group of people rushed from the other end of the Xifu Trail, looking for the sound, but it was Xianglian and a few girls, they came with lanterns.

Everyone met, and there was no time to greet each other.

Xianglian hurriedly said to Zhuang Pu: "Why don't you come back from the back to the door?" ”

At the back, there is the backyard of the West Mansion, where there is a door to the outer street. Xianglian said this, which means caring about everyone.

Zhuang Pu said: "The snow is thick over there, and the carriage can't pass." Fleece blanket strap no? ”

Xianglian hurriedly said: "I brought it." Then he took two stacks of blankets from the hands of the girl behind him, and spread them out to cover them.

At that time, Yu Qi saw clearly that the person lying on the top of the pistol was Mr. Guan.

Mr. Kwan was dying.

Ayu followed sadly, stumbling.

Yu Qi was stunned, knowing that "the people returned on a snowy night", and the people who returned did not suffer well. Seeing that Xianglian was busy covering the people on the bowl, Yu Qi stuffed the soup woman to Zisu without thinking, and said, "Warm up to Mr." ”

In this way, Zisu rushed over with the soup woman, met Zhuang Pu, and stuffed the soup woman into the blanket in front of Mr. Guan.

Zhuang Pu seemed to be a little moved, nodded slightly to Zisu in thanks, and nodded to Yu Su again.

Seeing this, Ayu burst into tears and walked forward to salute Yu Qi.

Yu Qi picked up Ayu and said, "Hurry back!" Don't get cold. ”

For a while, a few people were not as polite as in the past, and hurriedly went to Xifu. Yu Qi was stunned and worried, and looked away from them. After a long time, everyone disappeared into the path, and Yu Qi was helped back to Jinghua Xie by Sanxi and Zisu.

Back in the room, Yu Qi was already shivering with cold. Zisu and Sanxi added soup to the mother-in-law, while blowing the fire in the cage, and adding a blanket to Yu Qi to warm up, in short, the two were busy.

When everything was over, Yu Qi said, "Mr. Guan, what's wrong?" It's quite serious. Because he was not at ease, he said to Sanxi: "You go and take a look." ”

Zisu stopped: "This has nothing to do with us, what does the girl do with this heart." ”

Yu Qi sighed: "Without the help of the jade girl, I can't get better at the moment." Why don't you have anything to do with me? ”

Zisu was topped, so he didn't say anything, and went to take the cloak he had just taken off.

Yu Qi looked at Zisu gratefully, got up and asked her to put on herself.

Zisu said to Sanxi: "Light the lantern again." I'll go too. ”

Yu Qi held Zisu's hand and said no more. After dressing up, a few people carried lanterns and umbrellas, and quietly went to Xifu.
