2 Chapter 2
The lights in the east room of Chunjingtang are bright, the man's eyes are deep, his broad shoulders and legs are long, and his posture is handsome, and the bright palace lights are reflected in the face that is so handsome and perfect that he can't find a flaw, and his expression is as gentle and calm as ever, but he faintly reveals a bit of extravagance that he dare not take lightly.
It was obviously still that face, but it inexplicably made Xie Yunchu feel a little strange.
He was wearing a moon-white straight jacket, and a piece of Hetian Qinyu was tied with a dark blue palace silk around his waist, he was already handsome, and with this outfit, he became more and more noble.
Isn't it to please Xie Yunxiu and deliberately pretend to be younger?
Xie Yunchu was carried away by anger and blurted out,
"I delivered you the news in the morning, why did you come now?"
The tone is more aggressive than just now.
She was still half-dead here, but he was dressed like a peacock with a roar.
Xie Yunchu was full of indignation.
Wang Shuhuai saw that his wife's eyes were red, but he stubbornly refused to shed a single tear, and was slightly stunned.
He didn't know that she had delivered the news to the yamen, let alone that she was in such a hurry? This is very different from her usual gentle atmosphere.
It's just that his stunnedness is fleeting, and his eyes quickly return to their original state.
In the first month of the wedding, Xie Yunchu became pregnant, and since then, he has moved back to the study, and it has been more than a year.
Marrying a wife and extending the heirs is the first priority, and Wang Shuhuai does not think that there is anything wrong with temporary separation.
After giving birth to the child, Xie Yun was bleeding after giving birth, and his body was quite weak, and Wang Shuhuai did not think about staying in the backyard until he decided to save the province in the morning and dusk, and his mother sternly asked him and his wife Dunlun, saying that Xie had taken a leave of absence for half a year and could continue to give birth.
Wang Shuhuai realized that the child was half a year old.
Only then did I return to Chunjingtang.
As soon as he came in, he complained and even complained about Xie Yunchu.
It is the responsibility of the eldest grandson to continue the incense, and it is also the key to Xie Yunchu's firm foothold in the Guogong Mansion.
Xie Shi complained anxiously, but he could understand it.
Wang Shuhuai walked slowly onto the stage, his expression was calm, and his tone was gentle.
"Sorry, I'm late."
The tall figure stood on the platform, his face was covered with the cleanness of the dust, and his demeanor was upright and elegant.
It's just that these words didn't make Xie Yunchu's anger any less, but that overly calm expression made her sick, she endured the sourness, and asked with iron bones,
"Do you know what your wife is planning?"
Wang Shuhuai's expression was slightly paused, his hands were put back, and his expression was a little intriguing.
Mother's words flashed through her mind: "Your grandfather is old, you are the grandson of the eldest family, the position of the son of this world has to fall on the head of our second house no matter what, the last time Xie was pregnant, your grandfather did not show it on his face, but he was looking forward to it in his heart, and he only got a daughter, now while you are young, you have to give birth to the eldest son as soon as possible, so as to calm your grandfather's heart....."
The bad debts of the Guogong Mansion can not be handled by a grandson.
Mother and Xie's minds are still too shallow.
Wang Shuhuai had no intention of arguing with his wife and mother, and bowed his head lightly,
"I already know." His face was still the calmness that everything was under control.
Xie Yunchu was mad, how could he talk about the continuation of the string so lightly in front of his dying wife.
Xie Yunchu pressed his eyebrows deeply, almost out of breath.
No, no, she was wrong.
Such Wang Shuhuai is the Wang Shuhuai she knows.
No matter when and where, he can always weigh the pros and cons calmly and sensitively to make the best choice. Xie Yunxiu is the aunt of two children, gentle and generous, well-behaved and lovely, not only close to everyone in the house, but also outstanding in family background, he is simply the best choice to fill the house.
They celebrated with their hands, but no one asked her what she meant.
Xie Yunchu's mouth couldn't swallow the breath in his mouth.
She closed her eyes and spoke coldly,
"Dreaming!"
Then he slowly turned half his body on the bed, almost disdainfully glanced at Wang Shuhuai again, and his tone sounded very ruthless and even mocking,
"What's the hurry? Wait for my body to be raised. "Maybe I can raise it.
As long as she is alive, Xie Yunxiu will not think about succeeding.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.
The maid Chunqi was so frightened that she almost knelt down,
Heaven and Earth Ancestor, why did the master say something foolish?
Aren't you looking forward to the second master moving back to the backyard and giving birth to a son-in-law as soon as possible?
Why did you lose your temper and want to turn the second master away?
This... Something is wrong.
Chunqi didn't dare to look at Wang Shuhuai's face, and was refused to have sex with his wife in person, which was unacceptable to any man, Chunqi secretly took a breath of cool air, looked at his nose and nose, and tried to reduce his existence.
The room was very quiet, except for the sound of the lights.
Wang Shuhuai was stunned for a long time, frowned slightly, and tapped the table with one hand, his fingers were slender and powerful, and he looked at Xie Yunchu motionlessly.
He could conclude that Xie Yunchu was talking angrily.
Wang Shuhuai has always been an excellent person to get along with, whether he is happy or not, satisfied or not, he never shows half a point, sometimes he doesn't care, sometimes he is disdainful.
Xie has always been thoughtful and generous, and there may be a reason for his temper today, but Wang Shuhuai has no time to explore the reason, and he is not used to noticing his wife's abnormality.
His expression was still calm and calm, "Then you have a good rest and take care of your body." ”
When the words fell, he turned and walked out.
The bead curtain sounded, making a crisp collision sound, Xie Yunchu snorted lightly, and lowered his eyes indifferently, at this moment, a familiar jade pendant suddenly flashed into his eyes, Xie Yunchu lost his composure, and immediately picked up the jade pendant, his expression became strange.
This carved anchovy Qinyu is the newlywed tea ceremony mother-in-law to her to meet the gift, she ten minutes of love, has been hanging around the waist, partial Sheng Ke sister caught the day of the banquet was accidentally broken by the little girl, she was afraid of being known, silently hidden, and then prevented the mother-in-law from asking, according to the appearance of a hit, just put in the dresser no longer wear.
At present, there is no doubt that this piece is obviously the original of the year, why is it on her?
At the same time, when the maid Chunqi saw Wang Shuhuai leave in a bad mood, she panicked and burst into tears, and knelt down in front of Xie Yunchu.
"My lord, you have always been calm, but what happened today, hoping that the stars and the moon would bring people back, why did you push them out again? Don't scare the slaves. ”
has already been cold-eyed, if he offends his uncle again, the future will be more and more difficult.
Xie Yunchu sat on the bed with the jade pendant in his hand, his eyes moved from the jade pendant to Chunqi, she was wearing a pink armor, a sweat towel of the same color tied around her waist, and a double bun that a young maid had in her face.
Ming Ming Chunqi got married a year ago, she should comb the woman's bun.
An unbelievable thought flashed through my mind.
Xie Yunchu's heart was full of horror, his fingers dug deep into the futon, and his eyes turned around the room a few times without moving.
Is she a geist?
Or do you die and come back to life?
Chunqi looked at the stunned master and gently tugged at her sleeve, "Sister is half a year old, you were optimistic about the days before, and you have decided to invite your uncle back to the room today, this time the popularity will go, what should I do when I turn back?" The slave is worried that you will be harshly criticized by the wife. ”
Through Chunqi's words, Xie Yunchu became more and more sure that this was a return to the past.
All this was too sudden and incredible, Rao is Xie Yunchu died once, and he didn't know how to react.
Only the hatred in the brain is vigorous and endless, not to mention the harsh scolding of her in-laws at this time, that is, she wants to divorce her, she has to put a few cannons and burn it for three days of high incense, so she sneered and replied,
"Let him go."
Seeing Chunqi's face full of uneasiness, Xie Yunchu suppressed his chaotic thoughts and comforted her with a smile, "You go and rest first, I have my own measure in this matter." ”
Chunqi still didn't move, she had served Xie Yunchu since she was a child, and she was very familiar with her temperament, but she felt that something was wrong.
Xie Yunchu was worried about being interrogated by her, so he rubbed his stomach, "I'm hungry, you go and help me cook a bowl of bird's nest porridge." ”
Chunqi's face was shocked again, the Xie family was noble, but not rich, Miss married into the Wang family, did not dare to move the dowry easily, has been frugal to live, the best bird's nest in the treasury is only a few taels, every time she wants to take it out to make up for the Miss, Miss is reluctant, saying that she wants to keep the filial piety to her in-laws and the like.
Chunqi felt in his heart that Xie Yunchu was too selfless, thinking about others in everything, and never caring about himself, but now that he heard this, he got up without saying a word, and walked quickly, for fear that Xie Yunchu would regret it.
Seeing Chunqi out of the east room, Xie Yunchu sat blankly on the bed of Jin Si Nan's thousand workers, his eyes swept over the carved dragon and phoenix auspicious frieze, the big red gorilla mandarin duck brocade tent hanging on both sides, and a familiar furnishings.....
Is she really alive?
Touching the edge of the bed, she tried to get up, and when her footsteps touched the ground, there was no dizziness in the past.
That's great.
Tongtai's body dispelled the gloom in her heart, her eyes were filled with tears, she died once, and life became precious.
Xie Yunchu digested alone for a moment, and called the little maid who was keeping vigil to knock on the side to confirm that she had returned to the 15th day of March in the eighth year of Tianxi.
At this time, she and Wang Shuhuai have been married for more than a year, and in this year and a half, they have only eaten and slept with him for one month, and the rest of the days are separated.
Later, because Wang Shuhuai was buried in official business, he was no longer used to sleeping with her, so the husband and wife discussed having sex on the fifteenth day of each month, and when she gave birth to Brother Jue, Wang Shuhuai came to her house less often.
I thought it was because he had cultivated since he was a child and cultivated his body, but now that he thinks about it, maybe he doesn't like her.
Xie Yunchu closed his eyes, put his hands on the table, and let out a heavy breath.
She wants to reconcile.
She's not stupid enough to serve those ungrateful things anymore.
But when he thought of Sister Ke'er, who was only half a year old, Xie Yunchu's brows furrowed deeply.
It's not okay to leave Sister Ke'er, and it's hard to take it away.
After thinking about it, he didn't have a clue, and Chunqi had already handed over the bird's nest porridge.
After drinking bird's nest porridge, Xie Yunchu continued to sleep, this night was muddy, and when he woke up the next day, Xie Yunchu's eyes were bruised, and his spirit was not slack, and without saying a word, he called Mama Lin to go to the room to take leave, Xie Yunchu saw the child, and asked the nurse and the maid to take care of Sister Ke'er, and returned to the moon cave window where she died in her previous life and sat down.
Xie Yunchu leaned quietly on the pillow, and his eyes fell outside the courtyard through the half-open bamboo curtain of Xiangfei.
The spring in Beijing is late, the begonias on the branches tremble in the morning dew, a gust of wind comes, and some falling green sticks to the bamboo curtain, Xie Yunchu holds the thin tire lobe azure tea cup and takes a sip of tea, and his fingertips seem to be entangled by green.
She couldn't help but think of the whole of this marriage.
She has been diligent and diligent since she was a child, and she is perfect in flower arrangement, tea, art, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and at the age of sixteen, she won the first prize in one fell swoop at the flower viewing banquet held by the queen, and became famous.
And this eldest princess is Wang Shuhuai's step-grandmother, although the marriage has not been decreed, but in front of the emperor and queen has crossed the clear road, if she proposes to make peace, will the regent princess agree?
And I'm afraid it won't work.
Somehow, Xie Yunxiu's smug face flashed in her mind.
In case she and Wang Shuhuai reconcile and leave, with the virtue of Lu's mother and daughter, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not dredge the joints and send Xie Yunxiu over.
The Wang family will not let her take Sister Ke'er away, and the wheel of time will once again reach the level in her previous life, she believes that Wang Shuhuai will make the same choice and will choose Xie Yunxiu, who is close to Sister Ke'er, as his wife.
Wang Shuhuai will be the first assistant in the future, she can't be cheap for Lu's mother and daughter.
Xie Yunchu sat sullenly for a long time, and his breath was still not smooth.
After calming down, she began to weigh the marriage.
Aside from Wang Shuhuai's lack of her in his heart, this husband is a general, can be literate and martial, can earn a good future for his children, can support her externally, and never interferes in housework internally, so he can be regarded as a competent partner.
Remarrying someone else, she has to grope and grope to get by, and it is better to stay in the Wang family, at least she knows where there are pitfalls and where is the smooth road.
Xie Yunchu smiled faintly.
In this life, she will use Wang Shuhuai as a tool.
As for the in-laws, she stopped serving.
The feeder also has to be thrown out.
She just needs to take good care of herself, save some family business, be a rich idler, live a long life, and survive all of them.
Xie Yunchu thought about it ventingly, and suddenly became enlightened.
Last night's incident caused a lot of commotion, and the henchmen who followed her from the Xie family all had palpitations, and they were worried that she would vomit sick, and all their minds did not belong.
Xie Yunchu has four big girls, Chunqi, Xia An, Qiu Sui, and Dong Ning.
When Mama Lin was leaving, she instructed Xia An, who was the most pleasing on weekdays, to stay and serve Xie Yunchu.
Xia An quietly hid outside to arrange flowers, and glanced at the inner room from time to time, seeing that Xie Yunchu's face was good-looking, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly cleaned her hands, and came in happily with a baby.
"Girl, this ivory ball is finished with one last step left, you ordered the slave yesterday, and today you will remind you to finish," she stared at the delicate lines, "Your craftsmanship is so good, my uncle must like it." ”
Xie Yunchu's gaze fell on the object in her palm, and his eyes were slightly sore.
This is a hollowed-out ivory ghost ball.
It was a congratulatory gift she prepared for Wang Shuhuai's twentieth birthday.
The girl is pregnant with spring, Xie Yunchu admires Wang Shuhuai, but her love melts into a needle and a thread, a soup and a spoonful, and I don't know which time she accompanied Wang Shuhuai into the palace to ask the eldest princess to say goodbye, Wang Shuhuai's eyes fell on a ghost ball on the fan frame for a long time, the delicate girl found out, and confirmed with her husband whether she liked this thing on the way back, and after getting a positive answer, she secretly bought an excellent piece of ivory with huge silver, learned the craftsman's technique, and carved him day and night.
I don't know how many times I've hurt my hand and how many times I've broken my eyes.
is full of affection and indulges in it, and only wants to surprise her husband.
And when Wang Shuhuai received the congratulatory gift, he just smiled lightly and said that he had a heart.
Seeing this ghost ball that had taken her a year of hard work again, Xie Yunchu's expression was so calm that it was almost indifferent.
"It's already engraved, let's sell it."
"Wh. What? Cheyenne suspected she had misheard.
The so-called last process is to engrave Wang Shuhuai's words, which is no longer needed.
As for the word "Chu" that has been engraved in it, there are many people with the same name and surname in the world, who would have expected that it was her, and she carved it hidden, and she couldn't find it when she was idle.
Xie Yunchu said word by word, "That's right, it's sold." ”
Facing the spring light, she smiled brightly, "I went back and changed the silver, let's buy some bird's nest to replenish the body." ”
Xia An blinked, she was different from Chunqi, she was innocent and very refreshing, since Xie Yunchu said that she was sold, she was obedient as a slave.
Xia An met Xie Yunchu's determined eyes, no longer hesitated, and said with a smile,
"Okay, the slave will go to Uncle Lin and sell it, this thing is really rare, maybe it can be exchanged for a lot of silver."
