Chapter 142: Drinking
Saiyang glanced at Shu Xiaoen with a little meaning.
"I see. I'll keep this a secret for you for a while. Saiyang said, turned around and walked out, "Seeing that your complexion is getting worse and worse, let's go and rest for a while." ”
After walking a few steps, as if suddenly remembering something, Saiyang would turn his head and say to Shu Xiaoen, "The third prince asked you to set off back to Divination City tomorrow." With that, he opened the door and walked out.
Counting the time, it was probably the curse of the Black Tower that had struck again......
Shu Xiaoen buried his head between his crossed arms with some irritability. In this way, it will take a few days to return to the Divination City from the City of Cause and Effect, and it will probably be in time for Qianmo to marry the goddess Sang Ying.
That's really embarrassing, and I don't know if Qianmo told Sang Ying about the curse of the Black Tower......
Before dawn, Shu Xiaoen sat up irritably, leaning on the head of the bed and looking at the gray sky outside the window lattice.
Saiyang has already prepared the carriage and horses for the return trip.
On the second day, the carriage returned to the city of divination.
Shu Xiaoen returned to the courtyard that Wei Dongming's mansion was reserved for her alone, freshened up, slept all afternoon, and in the dead of night, Qianmo, who had not been seen for a long time, wore a black hood and a black robe, and entered the house with the coolness of the night.
Because of the greeting in advance, it was about this hour, Shu Xiaoen leaned on the head of the bed and closed her eyes to recuperate, while Yao'er tilted her head and dozed off on the table. Hearing the footsteps, Yao'er immediately opened her eyes, stood up and saluted Qianmo before retreating.
Qianmo coughed a few times before walking over.
"Didn't you sleep well? Qianmo's voice was hoarse due to the wind cold.
Shu Xiaoen thought that one day later, Qianmo would be someone else's husband. There was a faint pain in his heart, avoiding his concerned eyes, and he said lightly: "En." I didn't find the map of Wuye Island, and I couldn't sleep soundly. ”
Shu Xiaoen heard a violent cough in his ears, and couldn't help but stand up and go over and pour him a glass of warm water.
Qianmo took a few sips of the water she handed her to moisten her throat, put it to the side, stretched out her long arm and took her into her arms, leaning lazily on her shoulder socket and rubbing it, "What's wrong? ”
Shu Xiaoen said: "I didn't sleep well-"
"Then I'll stay with you tonight. Qianmo touched her soft hair, and looked thoughtfully at Shu Xiaoen's eyes, and he saw the disgust that flashed in her eyes.
The emotion disappeared quickly, and looking at the expression on her face, it was still a soft expression. It was as if the emotion of that moment was his delusion.
"I'm used to sleeping alone. Shu Xiaoen smiled, "The third prince should not always take this as a joke. lest someone with a heart hear it, you and I don't look good. ”
Qianmo scratched her nose and didn't mention this matter more according to her wishes, lest the relationship between the two people become more and more stiff. Shu Xiaoen lowered his head and unbuttoned his robe for him......
After sending Qianmo away, Shu Xiaoen lay on the bed with his eyes open and couldn't sleep, and he stayed open all night until dawn. The darker and thicker dark circles under her eyes made Yao'er feel a little distressed, and she sent it to her every day according to the prescription prescribed by the doctor, which was both medicinal diet and medicinal soup.
When it was better, Shu Xiaoen could still sleep with her eyes closed for a while, but most of the time those things were of little use to her.
The weather is getting warmer, and green shoots are beginning to emerge from the trees and grass. The warm sunshine sprinkled warmly in the courtyard, and Shu Xiaoen lay on the drunken chair, squinting slightly, enjoying a comfortable time.
I fell asleep for a while. When she woke up again, Shu Xiaoen found that Qianmo didn't know when she came, sitting on a round stool, quietly accompanying her. Seeing her slowly open her eyes, she looked at him in astonishment.
Tomorrow will be the day of his great joy......
Shu Xiaoen thought about it, closed her eyes to hide the complicated feelings under her eyes, at the moment she was too lazy to say anything, just quietly felt the touch of the breeze caressing her cheeks, and I don't know if it was because of his terrifying spirit, the uneasiness in her heart was unconsciously dispelled, and she fell asleep deeply.
In a daze, I heard Qianmo's voice sound.
"How long has it been since she slept well?"
"Back to the third prince, the young lady didn't sleep well. ”
......
I don't know what they were chatting about again, Shu Xiaoen fell into a dreamless sleep. It was as if someone had picked her up and put her in a warm bed, and a soothing quilt was placed over her, and for the first time in days, she had slept so soundly.
Unexpectedly, I woke up in the afternoon of the second day.
The happy event of the Three Princes' Mansion was held as scheduled, and when the sun was setting, the eldest brother Wei Dongming, who had not seen him for a long time, came to see Shu Xiaoen with a pot of wine, and the expression on his face was a little sad, "I feel uncomfortable, right?"
Shu Xiaoen stepped down the steps and walked up to him to take the pot of wine.
"Why doesn't the eldest brother wait for the banquet to disperse and come back?" Shu Xiaoen didn't appreciate it, she poured a cup and drank it all in one gulp, the spicy taste choked her violently, and tears came out of her eyes.
Wei Dongming laughed and snatched the pot of wine, "If you don't know how to drink it, don't drink it." ”
After that, Wei Dongming looked at Yao'er. Yao'er understood, moved the tables and chairs to the courtyard with the two mothers-in-law, and put a few snacks on the table. The bright moon hangs high, the breeze is gentle, and it also has a unique flavor.
The two drank a pot and asked people to take two jars, but no one was drunk.
Wei Dongming squinted his eyes slightly, smiled at Shu Xiaoen, who was flushed, and after drinking, his words became more, and he muttered a lot of nonsense, nothing more than that it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines.
Shu Xiaoen went in and out of his left ear and out of his right ear, sullenly drinking a glass of Chinese wine.
“...... That's fate. Wei Dongming suddenly stood up, raised his head to look at the bright moon, and muttered to himself sullenly, "You have to admit it." As he spoke, he looked back at Shu Xiaoen, glaring at her with a fierce look in his eyes, "Sister, do you say it? ”
Shu Xiaoen smiled, also stood up, took the initiative to touch his wine glass with his wine glass, and said drunkly: "The eldest brother is a priest in the divination city, since he can pinch and calculate, why don't you help yourself tell fortunes?"
Wei Dongming let out a long sigh.
"It's all over the rest of my life, what's the point of living?" Wei Dongming turned his head sideways, looked at Shu Xiaoen with a smile, and said mysteriously, "But...... The third prince wants me to calculate the rest of your life for you......"
Shu Xiaoen raised her eyebrows, blushing and looking at Wei Dongming with a smile.
"Why didn't you help me calculate the first half of my life?" Shu Xiaoen said with a stunned expression, the smile on his face gradually converged, and he looked at Wei Dongming with a serious expression, and said, "Big brother should be very proficient in these mystical arts, right?"
