Chapter 40: I Believe in You
Liu Fanyin paused, looked at the glint in her mother's eyes, was stunned for a long time, came back to her senses and laughed.
Fang Xu was drunk, holding Liu Fanyin in one hand and Xie Wanzhou in the other, and the words of praise poured out, not as reserved as in the past.
Liu Fanyin and Xie Wanzhou were so praised by her that their faces turned red, and while responding to her words, they carefully watched her movements.
After Fang Xu finished praising the two, he moved his eyes to Xie Li again.
Seeing his mother staring at him, Xie Li sighed lightly and wanted to help her up, "Mother, you are drunk." β
Fang Xu grabbed the hand he handed over, his eyes were like a torch, and he was bright.
Xie Li froze in place, looking at the hands of the two of them, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.
"Mother's ......"
"Xie Li."
Fang Xu's expression was extremely serious, and he could see that Xie Li's heart was furious.
"Mother." Xie Li twitched his hand, but he didn't pull it out, so he had no choice but to follow her down and say, "My son is here." β
"Xie Li." Fang Xu's eyes were bright, just like the crescent moon in the sky.
She looked at Xie Li like this, her expression was relaxed, and her tone was affirmative, "I see all your efforts, and in the days to come, I will escort you and help you rise to the top." β
Fang Xu's eyes bent, "I believe in you." β
Xie Li froze and stared at Fang Xu without saying a word, he couldn't even tell whether his heart was hotter or his eyes were hotter.
The bright moon shines on the ditch, and the secret hidden in the heart of the boy is lifted and placed on the table, and at this moment, the dream grows like a weed.
Many years later, Xie Li will still recall the scene back then, his mother was drunk, but she looked naΓ―ve but extremely serious, and she did not hide her trust in herself in front of others.
It was also the first time in his life that he was affirmed.
Seeing that Fang Xu was getting more and more drunk, Bai Ji and Su Zi worked together to carry his wife back to the room.
Liu Fanyin didn't eat a few bites, and then she had to go back to take care of Xie Yinyin, "My younger brothers and sisters eat slowly, Yinyin is used to crying at night, I'll go first." β
"Sister-in-law, go slowly."
Seeing Liu Fanyin walking back to the house, Xie Wanzhou also put down his chopsticks, "Second brother, I'm full, let's go back to study first." β
"Go ahead." The corners of Xie Li's mouth paused, feeling that he was too indifferent, and added, "Don't be too tired." β
"Thank you for your concern." Xie Wanzhou pursed her lips and smiled, and strolled out of Chengyuan.
Only Xie Li and the long sail not far away were left on the table.
Xie Li held his chin, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, he picked up the wine cup on the side and poured it full, and raised his glass towards the bright moon hanging high in the sky.
Early the next morning, Fang Xu had a splitting headache, and just sat up, just facing the bitter and hateful faces of the two maids.
Fang Xu was startled, and when he saw that it was Su Zi and Bai Ji, he calmed down a little, and pretended to be angry and said, "You two girls, are you trying to scare me to death?" β
Su Zi grimaced and whispered, "Madame, do you remember what happened last night?" β
Fang Xu rubbed his swollen head, shook his head, and said, "I don't remember." β
"If Madame recalls, why do you still use me and Suzi to scare you to death?" Bai Ji sighed and sat on the footstool, "I'm afraid I'll scare myself to death!" β
Fang Xu glared at her, "What are you selling!" What the hell happened last night? β
Su Zijian really couldn't think of it, so she was busy telling her what happened yesterday, and at the end she didn't forget to add, "Mrs. didn't see it yesterday, you praised the princess with a red face, and you have to be sisters with others!" β
Fang Xu was dumbfounded, and only after a long time did he wail, "How can I go out to meet people!" β
Bai Ji put down his shoes and said with a smile, "Yesterday you were very drunk, Miss sent Zhutao to inquire several times, for fear that you would be drunk again, the second son kept watch over you in the yard all night, and he just went back not long ago." β
Fang Xu covered his face, and was hesitating whether to shrink into the room today and never see anyone again, when he heard a voice from outside the door.
"Madame!" The little servant ran into the courtyard and shouted, "Madam, someone in the palace handed over the fold!" β
"In the palace?" Fang Xu looked surprised and looked up at Su Zi.
Su Zi understood, turned around and walked out of the house, and within a moment, he came back with a fold.
"Madam, the slave has just seen it." Su Zi paused and whispered, "It is indeed an excerpt from the palace, and it was sent by Mama Chang beside the queen." β
"Queen?" Fang Xu put on his shoes and put on his clothes, "What do I have to do with her?" β
"The slave doesn't know." Su Zi shook his head, his eyes were full of worry, "This fold came suddenly, and the slave maid was afraid ......"
"Afraid of what?" Fang Xu spit out the mouthwash, his face calm, "The soldiers will block the water and cover it, my identity is different, can she still fight me?" β
It's really not good, and the cheap husband who died early is blocking her.
"That's what Madame said." Su Zi smiled and pinched the fold, "This fold says to enter the palace immediately, and Madame will have to clean it up quickly." β
Fang Xu straightened the folds on his skirt and said indifferently, "Let's go now, the big boss has an order, how dare I slack off." β
The two maids walked behind, and when they heard this, Bai Ji muttered in a low voice, "Suzi, what does it mean to hug death?" β
Su Zi pondered for a moment and replied softly, "Madame may have said that...... I have made up my mind to die! β
Bai Ji was startled, and his face was terrified, "Emperor...... Is the queen so terrifying? β
"You two, don't hurry up!" Fang Xu stood in front and urged, and the carriage was already approaching.
The two maids glanced at each other and ran over with their skirts.
That's it, let's hold it to death!
It is also an honor to die with my wife!
Fang Xu stepped into the carriage, and as soon as he walked with his front foot, a carriage stopped outside the gate of the Houfu with his back foot.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a small head poked out from within, a baby face with baby fat.
The little girl looked up and saw that the plaque on the door did indeed have the four big characters of Yongcheng Houfu, so she immediately smiled and said backwards, "Miss, we are here." β
There was a soft sound in the carriage, and the little girl jumped out of the carriage first, and then helped a person out of the carriage.
The person who came was well-proportioned, with a red coat and a tight waist, lining her waist as thin as a willow, her black hair was pulled up high, her skin was white and flawless, and she was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off.
"This is it?" The woman curled the corners of her lips and said softly, "Let's go, go in and have a look." β
Silent Garden
Xie Li held the book, sat down next to the willow tree in the courtyard, took the antidote, his face had recovered, he was wearing an ivory white robe, a jade-colored wide-sleeved brocade shirt, and a jade belt around his waist, with a pure temperament.
"Who are you...... Hold it! Licentious! Who will let you into our courtyard? β
The sound of the long sail came from far and near, not as usual to be beaten, but mixed with panic, which was really curious.
Xie Li was puzzled in his heart, and when he raised his eyes, at this time, the gate of Jingyuan was pushed open.
