"Ahem, ahem." He Qingxiao coughed, his cheeks were spicy or coughing, and they were crimson.

The woman hurriedly passed the tea.

He Qingxiao took a sip of tea to suppress her cough, a little helpless: "Aunt Gui, you go to rest early." ”

"When the man gets married, the woman should get married, and the Hou Ye should also have a plan." The woman looked at the young man's slightly red face, and was a little unwilling, "Master Hou didn't look at the girl with closed eyes?" ”

"Not really. If you have, the first one will tell Aunt Gui. ”

He Qingxiao was so good at talking that he persuaded the woman to leave.

The room was deserted, and the dishes that had been eaten were cleaned up by the subordinates, and the excitement just now seemed to be gone.

He Qingxiao walked to the window, pushed open the window and looked out.

The night was dark, the sky was full of stars, and the wind blew the hem of his clothes.

He Qingxiao silently looked up at the starry sky, thinking of the panic when he was asked about the person he wanted just now.

He lied to Aunt Gui.

At that moment, the image of a girl did pass through his mind.

But he didn't think it was love, maybe it was a knee-jerk reaction to seeing her too many times recently.

What's more-He Qingxiao glanced at the endless night and the empty Hou Mansion, and laughed at himself.

Even if you are happy, why drag a good girl into this kind of life that does not know the future and does not know the blessings and misfortunes.

He Qingxiao walked into the inner room, picked up the travelogue placed at the head of the bed and looked at it quietly.

Two days later, in the evening, the sunset spread out in the western sky, and Miao Susu's hurried shouts suddenly sounded in the east house of the Zhou family.

"Yue'er—"

Zhou Ningyue, who was boiling medicine, rushed in: "Mother, you call me." ”

Miao Susu's face flushed, and she stretched out her hand to her daughter.

Zhou Ningyue grabbed her mother's hand.

"Yue'er, don't talk back to your aunt, don't have trouble with your cousin, try to find a reliable family to marry before your two cousins marry wives...... Also, if you encounter a problem that you can't solve, ask Miss Kou to see if she can help, but don't always bother people......"

Miao Susu held her daughter's hand tightly, and asked vigorously, "Have you written down everything your mother said?" ”

Zhou Ningyue nodded tearfully: "It's written down, my daughter has written it down." ”

There was a smile on Miao Susu's flushed face: "That's good, that's good-"

The hand that was holding her daughter tightly let go and fell.

"Mother?" Zhou Ningyue shouted, stunned, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

The woman, who always looked at her daughter with pity, remained motionless and unresponsive.

The girl's mournful cry sounded: "Mother, wake up, don't leave me, please wake up-"

The doorman, the cook, the servant, all the people who could be dismissed in a short time were dismissed, only one Chunya who was burning the fire heard the cry and ran in, and was dumbfounded when he saw the scene in the house, and it took a while to remember to go to Ji's house to report the news.

Xin Yu heard the news of Miao Susu's death from Ji Cailan three days later.

After learning about those things from Miao Susu's mouth, whether out of caution or respect, she didn't let Mama Fang continue to inquire about the Zhou family. After that side, she was mentally prepared for Miao Susu's death, and she was not sure what day it would be.

Ji Cailan was red-eyed, and talked about the reason for the bookstore: "My cousin's death was a big blow to my cousin, and now that my aunt is gone, my cousin seems to have lost her soul, and she doesn't cry or make trouble." I thought I would buy two books for my cousin, maybe I would make her feel better. ”

Xin Yu accompanied Ji Cailan to choose two books and went to Zhou's house together.

The old vegetarian of the Zhou family has not been removed, and now a new one has been added. Compared with the continuous mourners who came to mourn when Zhou Tong stopped his spirit, Miao Susu's departure was cold and lonely, and almost only the Ji family was there.

"Mother, my friend and I went to see my cousin."

Ji Mu nodded, and her voice was hoarse: "Go ahead." ”

Xin Yu glanced at Ji Mu.

Compared with the ferocity of pushing Miao Susu in the picture, the woman in front of her looked tired, revealing excessive numbness of sadness.

As long as Ji Mu doesn't know the truth, Zhou Ningyue's life should not be bad.

Xin Yu thought like this, and saw Zhou Ningyue sitting in the West Chamber.

Originally, as Miao Susu's only daughter, Zhou Ningyue was supposed to keep vigil day and night, but her parents passed away one after another, especially after her mother passed away, Zhou Ningyue looked confused, Ji's mother was worried that she would have a bad time, and let her stay in the West Chamber for most of the day.

"Cousin, look who's coming."

Hearing the voice, Zhou Ningyue's dull eyes turned and landed on Xin Yu.

Xin Yu walked over and held Zhou Ningyue's hand: "Sister Zhou, mourn." ”

The word "festival mourning" seemed to stimulate Zhou Ningyue, making her hands tremble, and then her dry eyes overflowed with big tears.

She hugged Xin Yu violently and cried loudly: "Sister Kou-"

Ji Cailan was dumbfounded.

My cousin seems to have lost her soul in the past two days, and no one shouts at her and doesn't react much, why did she cry when she saw Sister Kou?

Even a simple little girl like Ji Cailan knows that it is better for a person to cry than to hold it in her heart.

In the courtyard, Ji Mu couldn't help but look at the west wing when she heard the cry, showing a surprised look.

The crying gradually stopped, Zhou Ningyue wiped her tears indiscriminately, and Xin Yu silently handed over a handkerchief.

"Cousin, can I talk to Sister Kou alone?"

"Oh, you say." Ji Cailan was stunned for a moment, turned around and went to the kitchen outside to prepare tea.

"Sister Kou, what did my mother tell you that day? Can you let me know? ”

"Aunt asked me to take care of you more in the future, as for the rest, my aunt said that I don't need to let you know."

This answer was not expected by Zhou Ningyue, when she asked like this, it was just a complete death of guessing. If you want to tell her, there is so much time to talk ......

"I see." Zhou Ningyue wiped her tears with a handkerchief, but the more she wiped it, "Sister Kou, I don't have a mother......"

Xin Yu raised her hand and patted her on the back, and said softly, "I didn't ...... either So we have to live well and don't let our mother worry about Jiuquan. ”

Zhou Ningyue nodded vigorously.

When Xin Yu left, Zhou Ningyue looked much better, and even insisted on sending her to the gate. Although she sat down in a daze after sending people away, Ji's mother was still a lot more relieved, and quietly told Ji Cailan to invite Xin Yu to play in the future.

Walking out of the gate of Zhou's house and standing on the lively street, Xin Yu slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.

A few months ago, an ordinary horse-drawn carriage turned its wheels and drove towards the capital.

At that time, whether it was Zhou Ningyue, who was sitting in the carriage and yearning for a new life, or she was planning to travel all over the mountains and rivers when she was out playing, she would never have thought of a brief intersection between rescue and rescue, which made them lose their mothers one after another.

Fortunately, she came to Beijing, and her direction was not wrong.

Xin Yu turned around and walked to a mansion step by step.

The house was very magnificent, and the two stone lions in front of the door were majestic.

Xin Yu looked up and stared at the gilt plaque that glittered in the sun.

This is the Guchang Bo Mansion.
