Chapter 319: Lady Snow
In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu.
Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one.
It is best to use Wang Anshi's poem "Yuan Ri" to describe Jinling City at this time.
At this time, the Jinling City is brightly lit, and the market is crowded with people, and the door is like a market. The streets and alleys are filled with children's laughter, and the sound of firecrackers and children's laughter can be heard from time to time.
The teahouse and restaurant are full of friends, the talented and beautiful people are coquettish in pairs, the literati and writers are chanting poems to compare their talents, the heroes of the rivers and lakes are toasting and pushing the lamp to show their pride, and the dignitaries and dignitaries are staggered to praise their merits.
Sheng's song is boiling in the south lake, and tonight he will return to the painting boat.
On this kind of day, it is natural that there are fireworks places such as painting boats, hook fences, and teaching workshops, and the sheng songs are boiling, and the pomp and circumstance are unprecedented, and even the three-foot-high threshold is obviously three points lower.
The whole Jinling City is thriving, and every corner is filled with a festive atmosphere. And behind this joy is naturally inseparable from the good security of Jinling City.
In the lively scene of Jinling City, there is a bleak silence in a house, which is incompatible with the lively scene on the street.
The fact that two red lanterns hang in front of the door also proves that there are still people living in the mansion.
The huge Snow Mansion is now a little empty, the only remaining maids and servants are chatting with each other, the pool in front of the courtyard has long since dried up and is deserted, the silt is already overgrown with weeds, and the whole Snow Mansion is in a depression.
"Hey!" A faint sigh came from the west wing, "Ru Yue, how are you doing in the capital?" It's been so long, why didn't you know to send a letter? Even if I send someone to send a message back. ”
The beautiful woman stood in front of the window, looking out of the window with a lonely look, and was stunned by the lively scene outside.
"It's the first day of the Lunar New Year now, and there is no news from Ruyue, which is really worrying."
"That Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the capital, especially those dignitaries, everyone has unfathomable city government and scheming, intrigues, and various means emerge in endlessly, Ru Yue doesn't want anything to happen."
Thinking of Xue Ruyue going to the capital alone and facing those jackals, tigers and leopards alone, the beautiful woman was worried and couldn't sleep well.
"Madame, Madame, Madame is back."
A little girl in her cardamom years ran to the west wing excitedly.
Xiaohe's excited voice spread all over the Snow Mansion, and the lazy subordinates were all excited, quickly ended the conversation, and ran quickly to the door of the mansion to welcome Xue Ruyue's return.
The beautiful woman in the house with a sad face heard the call of Xiaohe, her sad face disappeared, her face was full of joy, a pair of beautiful and dazzling peach blossom eyes were bent into a beautiful crescent moon, and she hurriedly took a goose sable cloak from the hanger and draped it over her shoulders, and walked out of the house quickly.
"Ma'am, slow down." Xiaohe saw the beautiful woman walking out of the house quickly, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the beautiful woman.
"Isn't this Ru Yue coming back? As long as Ru Yue can come back safe and sound, this is enough. ”
The beautiful woman smiled sweetly, happy in her eyebrows, smiling in her eyes, and the smile hanging on the corner of her mouth was like smearing honey, so sweet that it was greasy and beautiful.
"This kid is really, I didn't know to send someone to notify me in advance before I came back, and now everyone is in a hurry."
"Giggles, Madame looks at you happy, if you let people who don't know see it, you still think Madame, you and Miss are twin sisters!" Xiaohe covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Poor mouth!" Mrs. Xue's beautiful eyes glanced at Xiaohe, and she dotingly stretched out her finger and tapped Xiaohe's head, "It's not big or small, if Ru Yue sees it, you will feel better." ”
"Giggles, isn't this Miss here!" Xiaohe stuck out her tongue playfully, "If Miss is so happy to see Madame, Miss will forgive me." ”
"You!" Mrs. Xue smiled, shook her head with a smile, and said earnestly, "How long will you be able to change this problem that is not big or small?" If you don't have rules like this, when the Xue family falls in the future, you go to work elsewhere, the old lady of another family is not as easy to talk as our mother and daughter, you will have to suffer. ”
Xiaohe pursed her lips and hugged Mrs. Xue's arm tightly, "I won't go to other homes to do things, I will follow Mrs. and Miss for the rest of my life, serving Mrs. and Miss." ”
"You can keep up for a while, but you can't keep up for a lifetime, Ru Yue will get married sooner or later, my health is not good, and I will die sooner or later. You are now at the age of cardamom, and I don't know how many people have come to your door to be a matchmaker for you, and you will only mistake you by following me. ”
"If you want me to say, you just listen to me, while the Xue family still has the ability to find a good family for you, hurry up and find a good family to marry!"
"I don't want it!" Xiaohe pouted unhappily and coquettishly with Mrs. Xue, "Those matchmakers came to the door to say that the matchmakers were all tattered goods, one by one, crooked melons and cracked dates, and they didn't look good at all." ”
"If I marry them, I might as well die."
"Phew!" Mrs. Xue hurriedly covered Xiaohe's mouth and kept spitting, "What can't die, don't talk nonsense!" For the New Year, how unlucky it is to say this! ”
"Madam, you only allow Madame to set fires, and you are not allowed to light the lamp!"
"Mrs. Mingming also said such unlucky things just now, why don't you let Xiaohe say it now?"
Mrs. Xue stretched out her slender jade finger again, and lovingly pointed at Xiaohe's little head, "You! I don't know what's in this little brain! ”
Then he sighed and said earnestly, "You are different from me, you have a lot of time at a young age, unlike me, who is old and yellow, and your health is not good, maybe you will follow in the footsteps of the master when you go." ”
"Madame, you won't!" Xiaohe frowned unhappily, "Madam, you have a kind heart, a bodhisattva heart, good people will definitely have good rewards, you will definitely be able to live a long life!" ”
"Rhetoric!" Mrs. Xue pinched Xiao He's nose dotingly.
"Hmm~" Xiaohe said coquettishly, "I don't have any rhetoric, I'm telling the truth." ”
"If it weren't for Mrs. and Miss who rescued me, I would have frozen to death on the side of the road, and even if I hadn't froze to death, I might have been sold to that kiln and lived a life that was worse than death."
"Look how good it is now, I not only eat and drink, but also be able to stay by the side of Mrs. and Miss to repay the kindness, although the Xue family is now in decline, but I believe that good people will have good rewards, but the time has not yet come."
"Mother, why did you come out!" Mrs. Xue and Xiaohe stopped all the way, and as soon as they came to the front hall, they saw Xue Ruyue from a distance.
Lady Xue was immediately overjoyed and quickened her pace, "Didn't you hear that you were back?" ”
"Xiaohe, hurry up and let someone go to prepare food for Ru Yue, boil hot water, and wash off the dust on Ru Yue's body."
