Chapter 32: Something Happened to My Mother
"Picking a lovesick flower, but holding a heartbroken lovesick tears. The greatest sorrow in life is to meet someone who has been in love with God for a long time, but it is like a stranger. If you and I really meet one day, will it be like this, and it will make each other's hearts ache tragically?"
Huang Long held the love letter that the "little puppet" had just sent, and suddenly realized that this brocade seemed familiar.
"In the past, the little white rabbit often used parchment rolls, why did you use brocade this time?" Huang Long had a very bad premonition in his heart.
Huang Long was afraid that he would be caught by Mo Xiang'er again when he wrote a love letter this time, so he hurriedly wrote a few words, and then hurriedly put them in a small bamboo tube and tied them to the feet of the little puppet.
"Little puppet, this may be the last time you will come to deliver a letter to me, right?" Huang Long suddenly had a bad premonition, and unintentionally spat out.
The little puppet "cooed" and refused to leave, still lingering on the windowsill.
The imperial dragon looked at it for a long time.
On the fourth day after the Nine Snake Clansmen arrived in the Imperial City, they finally agreed to hold a dinner party.
In the palace of the imperial city, the flow of people is crowded, and there is a group of joy. People from all over the clan were busy with the dinner.
Huanglong has been missing Mo Xiang'er for a few days, and I don't know why. The emperor dragon had nothing to do, so he went to look for her.
On the way, a group of maids passed by and asked the emperor dragon for peace.
"Wait!" After the group of maids passed by, Huang Long suddenly saw a man holding a tray in both hands, and there was something in the tray.
The dragon turned around, came to the maid, raised his hand, pinched a corner and lifted it.
It was a brocade pillow, with a narrow slit cut in the corner.
"What's going on?"
"Young Master Qiyu, this is something that Madame specially took out of the treasure box for the eldest lady of the Nine Snake Clan. Just now, they called us over, scolded us, and we used the worst cloth for them. ”
A maid next to her said indignantly: "They are too bullying! This brocade was brought by her mother's family when she got married, and she was reluctant to use it in the treasure box on weekdays. The eldest lady of the Nine Snake Clan came this time, and the lady specially instructed that it should be used by the eldest lady. But she cut it off, which is obviously angry with Madame!"
The maid holding the tray gently pinched the corner of the maid's clothes and motioned her not to talk nonsense.
"Moreover, she has been making things difficult for her wife in every way these days......"
The maid next to her tried her best to wink at her and prevent her from continuing to speak.
"It doesn't matter, but it doesn't matter! ”
When the dragon said this, the maid said everything. In the past few days, Madame has been very attentive to personally delivering food, food, and all kinds of jewelry, but all she has received is her white eyes! Madame trembled with anger several times, but she still forced a smile and went to deliver things again. Madame flattered her so much that she destroyed her beloved. ”
You must know that at that time, parchment rolls were expensive, and brocade was even more valuable. Therefore, the lady's maiden family used this object as a dowry gift to show respect.
When the emperor dragon heard this, he gritted his teeth in anger. But this time, he was angry with sadness. Because he finally knew a truth.
"Little White Rabbit!" Looking at the brocade in his hand, the emperor dragon felt a breathless in his heart, and the mystery hidden in his heart was finally solved.
"Where are you going to send this brocade?"
"For such a noble thing, we naturally have to report it to Madame, I'm afraid that Madame will be angry. "The maids are embarrassed.
"Don't let Madame know, she's not in good health. Huanglong reminded.
"However, if the lady finds out in the future, she will definitely punish us. The maidens bowed their heads nervously.
"Give it to me, I'll tell my mother. The dragon said as he took the brocade into his arms.
"That's very good! Thank you, young master!" The maids were very happy that this problem had been solved by the young master, and they saluted one after another to express their gratitude.
"Go ahead!"
"Yes!" said the maids, after saluting, and walked together in the direction of the lady's courtyard.
"It's better to be a young master, think about us everywhere!" said the girl holding the empty tray.
The girl next to her pouted and said, "What! After all, they are husband and wife, so naturally they have to protect each other." If Madame knew that the eldest lady was so rude, how could she let the young master marry her?"
"Oh, I see!"
......
Listening to the distant maids talking about each other, Huanglong had mixed feelings in his heart.
He was not worth it for his mother to abandon his dignity and humility to please the snake spirit, and he was even more heartbroken for the difficulties his mother received. In addition, what made him extremely disappointed was that the "little rabbit" who had always been sunny in his mind turned out to be such a dark girl in reality, how could he not make Huanglong very discouraged!
"However, this is good! it has strengthened my determination that I can't marry the snake spirit!" Huang Long was distressed for a long time, but finally figured it out.
"How can a person who knows his roots know him well for a long time? A confidante is only worthy of delivering love words from a long distance, and the distance is too close, and it is inevitable that he will be a little uncomfortable. What's more, that snake spirit just looks down on me in every way, how can I get close to her!"
"Having said that, I know that she is a little white rabbit, if she knows that I am a little piggy, she will not regret it, and she will have suicidal thoughts. ”
"Forget it! I just know it myself! I just don't write to her anymore!"
When Huanglong went to Mo Xiang'er's house, he had already figured out the depression in his heart along the way.
came to Mo Xiang'er's yard, but couldn't find her everywhere. It's just that in the study, seeing her table full of bottles and cans, Huanglong's heart is very happy.
"I'm so happy to know that Xiang'er is working day and night for my condition, looking for a good medicine!" thought to the emperor, picking up one bottle after another, putting it in front of his nose and sniffing it, the bitter herbs smelled very strong.
"Brother Long, don't touch those herbs, in case it's not right, the smell will mix, and it will condense in the body, and if there are side effects, it will be bad. Xiang'er came in from outside and reminded.
"Oh, Xiang'er, these are for me?" said Huang Long's proud expression.
"It's not!"
Mo Xiang'er's cold words, almost like ice water, poured the imperial dragon from the head to the end.
"Who is that for, and which son can be so happy to win Xiang'er's favor?"
"No!" Xiang'er still coldly took out the herbs in the bamboo basket one by one and crushed them in the stone mill.
"Xiang'er, what's wrong with you? Are you still angry with me? I've thought about it these days, I won't marry that snake spirit. The Emperor Dragon spoke his heart.
"Brother Long, I hope you don't say anything like that again!" Mo Xiang'er still had a cold attitude.
"Xiang'er, I know you're uncomfortable, but this is my true words!"
"Brother Long, you'd better not do that, you have to know that your mother's health is very bad!"
After Mo Xiang'er said this, she suddenly stood in place with regret, and the work in her hand stopped.
"What? What did you say, what's wrong with my mother?" Huang Long got up in surprise and came to Mo Xiang'er.
