Chapter 25 The Temple Fair of the Fifteenth
Rue Xiang: "Miss Xia, can you please not hold Yulan responsible?"
"She is a hard-working person, she was beaten and scolded by Wang Yunyan, her parents and relatives were in her hands, and she could only obey her orders."
"She didn't mean to hurt you, please raise your noble hand and let her go."
Xia Ruo: "Okay, I won't do anything to her, don't worry." ”
Ruexiang: "Miss Xie Xia. ”
Seeing Xia Ruo's promise, Rue Xiang showed a smile.
She turned around and kowtowed to the moon, and she didn't care if her head was broken.
Xia Ruo was startled by her and unconsciously took a few steps back.
Rue Xiang: "Daddy, my daughter is useless, I can only bring down Wang Yunyan." ”
"I can't kill the county lord of Jincheng to avenge you."
"Daughter, I'll go down and accompany you!"
"You must wait for your daughter!"
With that, she suddenly stood up, sprinted two steps, and rushed down the cliff.
Xia Ruo reached out to grab her, but only grabbed the corner of the cloak.
Si Chen and Xia Ruo hurriedly looked down the cliff, but they could only hear the sound of the surging river flowing, and there was no trace of Ruxiang.
At this time, the east was already white, and the sun was slowly rising between the canopy and the mountains.
Soft but undeniable to the rising sun, slowly tearing open the mouth of the boundless night, bright and white, bringing a little light to the earth.
Seeing a big living person die in front of him with his own eyes caused a great shock to Xia Ruo, Xia Ruo's eyes were dark, he fainted, and he didn't know anything.
Xia Ruo only felt that he was in dire straits, and his whole person was frozen for a while, and he was roasted by the fire for a while, and he was uncomfortable.
"Water, water, I want to drink water."
Someone gently helped Xia Ruo up and fed her warm water, Xia Ruo felt that the person was Si Chen, and subconsciously thanked him.
"Thank you, Si Chen."
Wen Ling: "This kid shouldn't be burned and confused, how can he talk nonsense?"
"Where is Si Chen here?"
Wen Ling's voice awakened Xia Ruo's senses, she opened her eyes, and found that she had been sent back to the wing room of the Immortal Temple, Wen Ling and the eldest princess of Qionghua were sitting beside her, with a look of concern.
(My throat hurts, my head hurts, what's wrong with me?)
(Where did Si Chen go?)
"See Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."
Xia Ruo got up and wanted to say hello to the eldest princess of Qionghua, but was held down by Wen Ling.
Qionghua eldest princess: "Ruoruo, you have a fever, don't move." ”
"I'm your aunt, you don't have to talk about these false etiquette when you see me."
Wen Ling: "Baby girl, where did you go last night?" How could it burn so badly?"
Xia Ruo didn't want to reveal Si Chen's existence, so he could only hum and say that he was uncomfortable, and after drinking the medicine, he pretended to fall asleep.
Wen Ling and Eldest Princess Qionghua glanced at each other, their faces were full of worry, but because there were still important things, they could only get up and go out and arrange for the maid to take care of Xia Ruo.
Wen Ling: "It's fine during the day, but it's like this at night, did you bump into something unclean?"
Eldest Princess Qionghua: "Maybe." ”
"Later, I'll go and ask the host for a peace charm, and hang it on Ruoruo, she should be fine."
Wen Ling: "I hope so. ”
After the two left, Xia Ruo lay on the bed, recalling the scene when Rue Xiang jumped off the cliff over and over again in his mind, the tip of his tongue was bitter, and his heart was heavy, after all, he couldn't resist the effect of the medicine, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
Xia Ruo: "This medicine is really bitter, if only there was sugar to eat......"
When she woke up again, she was already on the carriage back to the summer mansion.
Shuang'er: "Miss, you're really scared of me!"
"Let's drink the medicine first, and then eat a candied fruit later, it won't be very bitter."
Xia Ruo nodded and drank the blackened medicinal juice in the bowl.
This medicine was so bitter that her heart trembled, and she quickly took the candied fruit handed by Shuang'er and swallowed it carefully.
Xia Ruo: "Where did my mother and Lian'er go?"
Shuang'er: "Madame is in a hurry, and the slave doesn't know where she went." ”
"As for Lian'er, she has already returned to our house to recuperate, and Miss will be able to see her when she returns."
Xia Ruo sighed, noncommittal, leaning in the carriage and closing his eyes to recuperate.
The sweet aroma of candied fruit spread in her mouth, making her anxious heart iron a lot.
Xia Ruo: "Thank you, Shuang'er. ”
Shuang'er: "Miss, what are you thanking me for no reason?"
Xia Ruo: "If it weren't for this box of candied fruit you brought, I would never have taken this bitter medicine." ”
Shuang'er scratched her head, her eyes puzzled.
"Isn't this what Madame left for Mademoiselle?"
Xia Ruo: "Huh?"
If you pick up the box and look at it carefully, the hexagonal black lacquered wooden box is depicted with a golden entwined branch pattern, which is simple and elegant, but it is not like a woman's utensils.
Xia Ruo's heart moved, turned the box, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, and sure enough, he smelled a fragrance of heavy ink, which seemed to be absent, entangled in Xia Ruo's heart.
(It was sent by Si Chen.) )
(Has he been secretly guarding me?)
Seeing Xia Ruo blushing at the box, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, Shuang'er didn't know why, and looked puzzled.
"Miss, is there something wrong?"
Xia Ruo: "It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy." ”
"Keep this candied fruit well, don't lose it."
Shuang'er: "Yes, Miss." ”
Xia Ruo's heart was sweet, and a wave of sleepiness hit her, and she couldn't help but fall asleep.
After half a month, because of Ruxiang's matter, Xia Ruo fell ill and lost a lot of weight.
This made Xia Guangyu and Wen Ling feel distressed, and they vigorously served Xia Ruo vegetables during meals.
Xia Guangyu: "Baby daughter, eat some of this Kunlun Baofu, it's good for your health." ”
Wen Ling: "Come to a piece of rain and watch the flowers, you like to eat it the most." ”
Xia Ruo looked at the more and more dishes on the plate, crying and laughing.
"Good, good."
"Daddy and mother, you can eat it too!"
Xia Guangyu: "Speaking of which, we may not have gone out for a long time!" ”
"If you want to go and see the temple fair on the fifteenth day of this month?"
System: "Hint: The target character in the side quest will appear in the temple, please choose the host carefully. ”
Xia Ruo: (My father and mother are game NPCs, why do you still bring a release task?)
But after all, looking at the concerned expressions of the old father and the old mother, Xia Ruo only felt moved in his heart and nodded in agreement.
"Since Daddy said so, then I'll go and see!"
Wen Ling: "Mother has something to do, I can't accompany you, and I ask my baby daughter to fold a laurel in the south of the city for me and come back!" ”
Xia Ruo: (This is because I am afraid that I will be bored at home and refuse to go out for a walk)
(Having said that, there are less than three days left for the point task of finding the eldest princess's child.) )
(I really should go out and can't be decadent anymore.) )
"If you must fold one of the best ones back, give it to your mother."
In a blink of an eye, it was fifteen, and in order to avoid trouble, Xia Ruo changed into a silver and white men's clothes and went to the temple fair with Shuang'er and Lian'er.
The bright moon is in the sky, the black gold is falling in the west, the lights are on at the beginning, the night is dark, and as far as the eye can see, the fire tree and silver flowers rise above the sky.
The lights are all over the street, the wine shops are staggered, the smoke from the tea shed rises, and the smoke is extremely strong.
