Chapter 33: The Old Man

People say that joy is sorrowful, and this sentence is very suitable for Xiao Yuelai.

The first draft of the book is finished, and I can finally go shopping outside to breathe, it's a beautiful thing to think about, but I'm only happy for three seconds, and when Xiaoyue was sitting in the pavilion waiting for Xiaolan, she suddenly found that familiar and scared face in the crowd.

That person stood like that in the crowd, completely standing out from the crowd, his dress and temperament were superior, coupled with the look on his face that seemed to be smiling, Xiao Yue chuckled in her heart, thinking how could this fox be here. Because Wen Youyou didn't tell her that the crown prince had been sent back to the imperial city, she was frightened and overwhelmed when she saw Mu Ziyu, and she would only keep her head down. Yun Yan didn't know, and took her hand and asked her to look at the vendor who came over to sell candy on the other side: "Sister Yue, do you think this is good, do you want to buy one and try it." "The vendor boiled the sugar water, poured it on top of many fruits, and when it solidified, it looked crystal clear, very beautiful, and attractive. It's just that at this time, Xiao Yue was in the mood to eat, although her stomach was rumbling with hunger. She pulled Yun Yan by hand, still keeping her head down, and whispered: "Sister Yun, do you see a young man wearing a dark cyan robe on the other side?" Yun Yan looked at the opposite side and asked, "Sister, there are many people here who wear dark blue clothes, which one are you asking?" Xiao Yue still lowered her head and said, "Is there a man with a white hosta on his head?" Yun Yan glanced at the crowd again and said, "Oh, I saw one, wow, this person is so good-looking." After saying that, he was a little embarrassed, and his face was slightly red. She turned around and saw Xiao Yue's strange appearance and asked, "Sister, do you know this person?" Xiao Yue shook her head and said, "Don't keep staring at him, did he walk over?" Yun Yan raised her head and pretended to look at the vendor opposite, then turned around and whispered, "He walked over." Xiao Yue let out a sigh, patted her chest, looked up at Mu Ziyu's back and said, "It's really scary for me!"

As soon as the words fell, Mu Ziyu suddenly turned his head to look at the pavilion where Xiao Yue was resting, and Xiao Yue, who was frightened, lowered his head cleanly, and kept praying in his heart, he didn't see me, he didn't see me. Yun Yan lowered her head, held Xiao Yue's back and said, "Sister Yue is not good, this person came to us." Xiao Yue's nervous hands were sweating, at this time it was not to go, nor was it to stay, when she was in a dilemma, she heard someone passing by her and walking in the direction of Mu Ziyu, this person's back looked burly, walking with the wind but landing silently. When Mu Ziyu saw this person, he didn't come forward to talk, and the two left the downtown one after another. Xiao Yue looked at Mu Ziyu's disappearing back, and then put down her hanging heart, thinking that she must not let this person find out. Yun Yan was very curious, and asked her, "Sister Yue, why are you so scared?" Xiao Yue had no choice but to lie and say: "This person is not a good person, it is better to stay away from him." Yun Yan didn't know why, so she had to nod and reassure her, "It seems that you are also tired, let's wait for Sister Xiaolan to buy snacks and come back and go home together, right?" Xiao Yue also felt that it was a little dangerous outside, so she nodded.

As a result, they didn't wait for Xiaolan, but waited for a heavy rain, the pedestrians on the road left one after another, and some people also crowded to the pavilion to hide from the rain, Yun Yan thought that Xiaoyue's body could not be drenched in the rain, and this pavilion was also ventilated on all sides, she was worried that Xiaoyue would catch a cold, and she was a little anxious: "Sister, it seems that this rain can't stop for a while, you wait for Sister Xiaolan here, I'll rent a carriage to take you home." You don't go around, I'll be back soon. Yun Yan was afraid that Xiaoyue would refuse, so she rushed into the heavy rain as soon as the words fell.

Xiao Yue didn't come to pull her yet, but no one was there, and the mist was so big that even the pedestrians on the road couldn't see clearly. Xiaoyue hugged her arms, feeling a little cold, and a young woman next to her saw her with a big belly and said: "This is the daughter-in-law of that family, this day is also a monster, just now it was fine, this rain is coming, seeing you frozen like this, the father-in-law of the family is afraid that he will be distressed." Xiao Yue smiled politely, but the old farmer who was squatting in front of Xiao Yue to hide from the rain said: "You people don't understand, this spring rain is expensive!" and then the people around you who were hiding from the rain said a word, passing this boring time to hide from the rain.

Xiao Yue didn't pay attention to what the people around her were talking about, she was just worried about Xiaolan and Yun Yan, such a big rain Xiaolan didn't know if she could find a place to hide from the rain, whether Yun Yan could rent a carriage, looking at the foggy patch on the street, she felt terrible in her heart. Occasionally, a carriage passed by, and Xiaoyue hoped that it was Yun Yan, but it was getting darker and darker, and she still didn't see Xiaolan and Yun Yan. Suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, Xiao Yue looked up and vaguely saw someone galloping on a horse at the end of the main street, the closer she got to her, she saw clearly, not one person but several people, all riding horses, passing quickly, but the person at the head covered his face and showed a pair of eyes. Xiao Yue looked at those eyes a little familiar, these expressionless eyes were red, and there was no time to look sideways, looking straight ahead. But as the horses passed through the pavilion quickly, they made a huge splash of water, which made the people inside the pavilion cry out in shock.

The man suddenly looked back, Xiao Yue took a closer look, oh my God, who else could this person be if he wasn't Yuan Chenhao. The man continued to gallop on his horse, but Xiao Yue's heart was furious, and he didn't think about it at all, so he picked up the corner of his skirt and began to run in the direction of Anfu. The woman next to her was frightened by the horses passing by quickly, and by the time she reacted, Satsuki had disappeared into the rain. Xiao Yue felt that the prince must have seen her, I don't know if she saw her belly, maybe the old farmer squatting in front of her was blocking her, but she didn't dare to take chances, she couldn't have any entanglement with the prince.

She didn't know that she was already soaking wet, and she met the carriage rented by Yun Yan on the way, and Xiaolan was also in the car. The two of them were frightened when they looked at Xiao Yue, and quickly helped her into the carriage, Yun Yan's eyes were red and said, "Didn't you ask you to wait for me in the pavilion? Why did you come out by yourself?" Xiao Yue nodded, she ran all the way just now, and she didn't have the strength to speak.

When she returned home, Xiaoyue felt dizzy, a faint pain in her lower abdomen, and a feeling of falling, and she couldn't stand up. Xiaolan helped her change her dry clothes, Yun Yan boiled ginger syrup for her to take, she couldn't stand at all, and lay on the bed to rest. Originally, Xiaolan wanted Zhushan to show Xiaoyue, but Zhushan was not at home. Satsuki felt really uncomfortable, and fell asleep while lying down. But Xiaolan still felt uneasy when she saw this, she asked Steward Huang to go to the Wenfu Courtyard to see if Wen Youyou had retreated back to the house, and if he returned to the house, please ask him to come back.

As a result, Wen Youyou didn't go home until midnight that day, and when she got home, she rushed to Anfu, and at this time Xiaoyue was in a situation.

Xiao Yue slept for a while, and found that her whole body was uncomfortable, cold for a while and hot for a while, and finally she had a stomachache and woke up. This made Xiaolan and Yun Yan anxious, but fortunately, Zhushan rushed back in time, asked about the situation, and took Xiaoyue's pulse, and saw that Xiaoyue's skirt already had a red liquid, he felt that the situation was not good, and said calmly: "Xiaoyue's situation is not good, I will grab the medicine, now I can only let the child be born early, otherwise the mother and child will have to worry about their lives." Steward Huang went to ask Wen Po from the front street to come over to help, Yun Yan, you go to boil water, Xiaolan, you stay here and take care of Xiaoyue. ”
