13 Cousins meet
Sang Xuanyue saw Zhou Baolu.
She was sitting next to a gilded crane Qingbo mountain stove with curling green smoke, holding a palace fan with an ivory handle of a gold-woven beauty in her hand, and she looked at her like she had seen a ghost.
She was wearing a begonia blouse woven with cloud makeup and satin, and a soft smoke skirt sprinkled with flowers. She combed her fairy hair, a gold silk inlaid ruby double luan swayed in the crow's hair, a pair of cloisonnΓ© red coral earrings fell from her white ears, and a pair of bracelets of mutton fat jade were circled around her wrists.
The gold, silver and jade throughout the body have created a rich and noble style. And between her eyebrows and eyes, she was arrogant, sitting steadily on the rose carved chair, looking like a nobleman.
Sang Xuanyue sighed with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many years, and my cousin's demeanor is better than before." How have my cousins been doing all these years? Twisting the moon is a cousin for a long time. β
In just a few words, Zhou Baolu's long-brewing appearance of wealth and peace collapsed almost instantly.
The fan in her hand couldn't shake it anymore, and her well-maintained cheeks became stiff at this time, and even the bright smile on her face couldn't be maintained.
Zhou Baolu's heart was irritable, as if there were thousands of ants climbing and gnawing on her body, making her unable to sit still, unable to calm down.
- Why is Sang Xuanyue still looking so calm and gentle?
Doesn't the brocade mean that she is sick and her face is no longer what it used to be?
- After so many hardships and tribulations, how can she still laugh?
Why isn't she full of resentment, tired eyebrows, miserable complexion, and distorted heart?
- She is like mud under her feet, she is like the moon in the sky, and the circumstances of the two are very different. Sang Xuanyue smiled at her so meaningfully, did she hate her for pushing her to the Wang family and making her suffer from the loss of her husband?
Will she take revenge on her? If she retaliates, where will she start? Will she hook up with Tinglan with her appearance to block her?
Thinking of the deep love between Sang Twisting Moon and Shen Tinglan in his previous life, Zhou Baolu was so confused that the green tendons on his hand holding the handle of the fan were tense.
After a long time, she calmed down her disordered mind, and in the curious eyes of everyone, she slowly stepped forward with the timidity of homesickness, grabbed Sang Xuanyue's hand, and tears filled her excited eyes. "I'm fine, my mother-in-law is loving, my sister-in-law is harmonious, and my sister-in-law is also sensible and considerate. It's just that some homesickness, parents are old and frail, and they have to take care of their younger brother who is studying, it's far away from the capital, I'm pregnant and giving birth to a child here, Rong'an is young, and I can't go far away......"
As he spoke, he burst into tears and laughed, "It's good that my cousin is here." It's just that I thought that the Wang family was a family of officials, and people like my cousin would definitely be treated well. Even if your brother-in-law dies, you should be more considerate and compassionate. They have lost their conscience, and not only do they not comfort you, but they suffer and humiliate you...... Cousin, it's all my fault that I got the news too late, if I had learned earlier that they had treated you badly, I would have taken you to the Hou Mansion early, and I would never have made you suffer so much. Cousin, why are you so miserable......"
Talking is not as tearful as rain, hugging Sang Twisting the moon and crying is not painful.
Sang Xuanyue silently let her hold it, and her eyes turned red. seems to remember the sadness of losing her husband, or meeting her loved ones, and the grievances hidden in her heart finally made her break her defense.
Tears broke out of her eyes, so beautiful, so fragile, her slender body seemed to be a little unbearable, so she staggered.
The second lady hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Hey, you cousins are reunited, you should be happy, why are you still crying?" It's all sad in the past, so why bother mentioning it now? The cousin is a good talent, and there is a great future in the future. Don't cry, the old lady looks at it, don't cry. β
The second lady pulled away Zhou Baolu, Zhou Baolu seemed to realize that she was rude, turned sideways and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and slowly calmed down her emotions under the comfort of the maid.
The second lady looked at Zhou Baolu's posture and sneered twice with disdain in her heart.
Zhou Baolu is really not a person who does not do personnel and does not speak human words. It is said that beating people does not slap their faces, and scolding people does not expose their shortcomings, Zhou Baolu is good, for fear that people will not be embarrassed and painful, and he will poke his words into people's hearts. The knife was shining with a cold edge, and when it was poked, it was a bloody hole. Those who didn't see this girl crying were about to pull away, and their bodies trembled like chaff.
The second lady and Zhou Baolu didn't deal with each other, and they were really jealous and hateful, she saw that Sang Xuanyue had been crying suppressively, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "I am the second lady in this mansion, and I am also your cousin's concubine." Cousin Sang should know about me, and I asked Zhu'er to go to your courtyard twice before. β
Sang Xuanyue hurriedly greeted the second lady again, "I know Madame, thank you Madame for remembering me, and specially let someone send ginseng." I'm sick and sick, and my body is very weak, so it's not easy to make up for it...... The ginseng you sent is really useful, thank you very much for twisting the moon. β
said and saluted the old lady again, "Thank you for your old man's memory, several times I sent me things to replenish my body, and I remembered the moon in my heart, and it was unforgettable." β
The second lady and the old lady sighed and regretted when they heard this, "Since you have come to the mansion, you are a family, and you will accept what you are given, which is also our heart." β
"Don't thank you, look at that little face, people can't stand still. Hurry up and sit down to rest, don't come to Heyan Hall, the newly raised body is corrupted again, then my heart will be uncomfortable. β
With the support of her younger brother, Sang Xuanyue sat down on the chair. The maid came over with ginseng tea, and the old lady urged her to drink it quickly, "Your body still has to be taken care of." Just come here today, and don't dare to come back later. Just take care of your body in the yard, and when your body comes back, you will come to this courtyard to talk to my wife. β
Without waiting for Sang to refuse, she urged Qing'er again, "Hurry up and sit down and rest, drink some ginseng tea, and nourish your spirit." "I heard that this child is ten years old, but looking at this size, he will be eight or nine years old. The key is that this child is also very thin, and he is also timid when he looks at people, so needless to say, he was wronged when he was designated as the Wang family. This child's words and deeds are very decent, which makes people feel more and more unable to swallow this breath, and they pity the sister and brother even more patheticly.
The old lady is a kind-hearted person, and although the second lady is unforgiving, she also pities the weak. With the two of them being cordially entertained, and the three girls having witty words, it makes this sister and brother close to them, as if they have nothing to do with Zhou Baolu.
The old lady coughed lightly twice and reminded Zhou Baolu, but unfortunately, the daughter-in-law here didn't know where to go, and she was distracted. Occasionally, when I look back at it, I look like Sang Twisting the Moon, and the expression on my face is also unpredictable, always as if I have some kind of malice.
The old lady frowned, not knowing what kind of disgrace the two cousins had in the boudoir, so that time had passed, and Zhou Baolu never forgot it.
But since the two sides are not on good terms, why should she be busy letting this cousin into the house? Isn't it okay to take people out and send them back to their parents' homes? Do everything possible to get people under your nose, is there really another calculation?
When the old lady thought of this, she chuckled in her heart, and her gaze at Zhou Baolu became even more obscure and complicated.
The sun gradually rose, and the old lady was worried that a few people would go back against the sun later, and their bodies would not be able to bear it anymore, so she sent everyone away.
The old lady especially took pity on Sang Twisting the Moon, so she patiently comforted her, and then there was really no need to come over every day to say goodbye. Since he has entered the Hou Mansion, he is a family, and the old man always hopes that everyone will be well. There is no shortage of people around her old man, if she really has the heart, she can copy the scriptures and books in the house every day, and she doesn't have to go through a lot of trouble to come over. After all, in the stage of recuperating the body, it is still important to focus on the body, and when the body is really well, it is not too late to come and ask An to speak.
