Unbeknownst to others, Wu and Liu Yingying knew something inside.
The atmosphere condensed for a moment, and even Lian Qiu noticed something was wrong. After an unknown amount of time, Liu Yingying came back to her senses. She pretended not to notice the brief strange color and ignored it. Talking about the topic, he still smiled and said: "It would be great if we could all come back. It's great to be alive!"
He turned to Mrs. Wu and said, "Mom, I won't leave that bottle of Huadiao wine for daddy. After we eat it, we will treat it as a banquet for Taoyao and the others. Today we have three masters and servants." It must be a happy celebration.”
Liu Yingying said with a rare heroic expression.
Mrs. Wu looked at the forcedly smiling Liu Yingying with a complicated look on her face. She readily agreed and was about to get the wine immediately when she saw another commotion outside the yard. Suo Qiu stood up immediately. When I went to take a look, Shen Yuechan happened to be outside the house. It turned out that Shen Yuechan, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, was here.
Followed by a personal maid, the maid held a bunch of fruit snacks in her hands.
"Everything in the house is still unclear, and the people are not ready yet. I have been busy organizing funerals these days. I haven't been able to take the time to see you. Ying'er, you must have been a little lazy here these days. Fortunately, we have sent people to purchase people these days. After they are bought back, trained and trained, I will send more people over to serve them."
Outside the courtyard, Shen Yuechan and Liu Yingying were strolling hand in hand.
Liu Yingying said: "Don't worry about me here. I know you've been too busy lately."
He added: "Besides, I like purity. What's more, now that Sister Tao'er and Suoqiu are back, I have enough people here."
While talking, Liu Yingying looked towards the east courtyard opposite.
Shen Yuechan also looked along Liu Yingying's line of sight. After a long moment, she sighed slightly and said, "Yes, your place is really clean."
As he spoke, he murmured again: "Not just you, the whole mansion has been quiet recently. I have grown up so big, and I have always been surrounded by people when I go out. The whole mansion is quiet." It has never been so quiet, so quiet that it makes people panic at times.”
Shen Yuechan said quietly.
In just three months, we suffered two catastrophes, almost losing our families and people. We are afraid that it will be difficult for us to get out.
"Fortunately, it's all over."
Liu Yingying couldn't help but put her hand on Shen Yuechan's and patted it gently.
As soon as he finished speaking, he once again cast his gaze on the east courtyard opposite and asked casually: "How did she-"
Liu Yingying asked casually.
In the past seven or eight days since returning, the old members of the Shen family have passed away, and the Shen family has been holding funerals. Except for the fact that people come to deliver meals every day, Liu Yingying has been completely unaware of everything during the days after returning to the Shen family.
However, the east courtyard next door was empty, and Liu Yingying had already guessed the outcome.
However, we still don’t know the specific details. When we asked about Pinyue’s whereabouts, Yao Yulan also wanted to ask about her ending. However, Suo Qiu and Taoyao probably didn’t know much more than she did, so they kept the topic hidden.
At this time, Shen Yuechan came to visit and had the opportunity to ask.
Then Shen Yue sighed and said: "Things happened so suddenly that day, it was too late to evacuate. The second brother hurried back to the house to arrange for all the female relatives to retreat to the underground secret room to avoid the disaster. As a result, Qinfang Courtyard was too remote. Yao Yulan was one step too late and fell into the hands of the bandits. She thought she would die, but she didn't expect that she would eventually tell the bandits. I don't know how she knew the secret underground passage of the Shen family. I personally led the thieves down to arrest them. The underground secret room was finally blown open by explosives, and all of us were captured. At that time, all of us were ready to commit suicide. It was my mother. We were saved in front of King Pingnan. They were old acquaintances. But although we juniors and the Shen family were saved, the remaining maids who had been with us for decades were not. They were directly robbed by those thieves."
"Yao Yulan thought that she could escape the disaster because she sold her husband for glory, but unexpectedly she turned around and was rewarded by King Pingnan to her subordinates. After King Pingnan was beheaded, she was hanged here. Later, her brother Yao Rucheng took Take away her body."
Shen Yuechan said this.
The tone was calm. Such a thrilling past was mentioned again now, but there was no hatred or disgust on Shen Yuechan's face, only a slightly sad and complicated expression.
Liu Yingying looked stunned.
I didn't expect that there is so much past here.
Underground secret room?
She subconsciously turned around and looked towards the dense forest opposite. Did Yao Yulan know that the Shen family's secret room had anything to do with her?
If that was the case, then she herself would not be able to escape the blame.
While she was in a daze, she saw Shen Yuechan suddenly turning around, looking at her with a complicated expression, and suddenly said: "Ying'er, my eldest brother... the eldest prince will be here in three days." I’m getting married to my cousin.”
Chapter 165
"Ever since I became sensible, my eldest brother has not been in the house. Every year during the Qingming Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and the end of the year, my grandmother will take our whole family to Hanshan Temple to worship. It is said to be a sacrifice, but in fact it is just to visit my eldest brother. But my mother never In the past, I almost never saw my mother and eldest brother talking to each other in my memory. The relationship between mother and eldest brother was not like mother and son. When I was a child, I didn’t understand why my mother doted on me, my second brother and even my cousin. But I was more like an enemy to my eldest brother. It wasn’t until that day that I realized that my eldest brother was actually——”
"The second brother said that the eldest brother suffered a lot since he was a child. His mother never fed him a drop of milk or hugged him. He was raised by his grandmother since he was born. However, when he was seven years old, the emperor traveled to Qingyuan. , It was about that time that my grandmother noticed the eldest brother's life experience, and there was a slight suspicion. The eldest brother was sensitive and felt that even his only relative had abandoned him, so he went to the temple alone. It will take ten years to go."
"The eldest brother is in the Shen family. In fact, he is more like an outsider most of the time. The second brother said that my grandmother has regretted it very much over the years. She hopes that the eldest brother can go home. We all hope that he can really go home. Only by marrying Cousin, he is the real member of the Shen family, and he can truly go home."
"Chan'er, why are you telling me this?"
"I don't know, I just think I should tell you this. In the past, no one could interfere with my brother's affairs, and I'm afraid no one will be able to interfere in the future. You... you have to plan more for yourself. "
*
The time of three days is neither long nor short, and it is almost here in the blink of an eye.
Because the Shen family was in mourning period, it was difficult for the Wu family to say farewell, but they were rushing to catch up with a big happy event. After all, they had so many connections with the Shen family, so it seemed a bit difficult not to attend the wedding, so, Liu Yingying discussed with the Wu family and left directly to return to Yuncheng after the wedding of the Shen family.
The night is getting darker.
Liu Yingying opened the window and rested her pillow in front of the window to admire the moon. Yaoyao had fallen asleep peacefully beside her, while Wu was packing things beside her.
In fact, after the last chaos, the Wu family's luggage had been damaged a lot, and there wasn't much to pack. Wu just had nothing to do, so she turned over the clothes and bedding and packed them. Then his eyes were frequently cast in the direction of the window, and he stopped talking several times, and finally turned into a long sigh.
After finishing all the chores at hand, Mrs. Wu finally took a shawl and covered it on Liu Yingying's shoulders. She then took the shawl and covered it on Liu Yingying's smooth feet. She reached up and squeezed to check the temperature. She looked at Liu Yingying. He said softly: "Ying'er, it's late at night. Go to bed early. Don't... don't stay up too late."
Liu Yingying was startled, then turned around and saw that Mrs. Wu had stood up and hugged Yaoyao beside her. When Liu Yingying saw this, she got up and wanted to see her off. Mrs. Wu winked at her and said: "Shh, it's okay, don't worry." Woke this little guy up."
As he said that, he looked deeply at Liu Yingying, her eyes clearly filled with a myriad of things. When she finally spoke, she could only say: "Go and have a rest, don't catch a cold."
Liu Yingying nodded lightly, but did not move. She just continued to lie at the window and watched from a distance as Mrs. Wu walked away with Yaoyao in her arms. After leaving, she continued to turn her face away, resting her head on her arms, watching intently. The bright moon in the sky.
Perhaps the morning sickness period has passed and I haven’t vomited in the past few days.
Tomorrow will be mid-autumn. Today's moon is like a silver plate. It turns out that the moon on the fifteenth day is so beautiful.
After becoming pregnant, when the fifteenth day came, she never fell ill again.
It's great, everything is gradually developing in a good direction, isn't it?
Liu Yingying was lying at the window admiring the moon, admiring it, and suddenly she saw a glimmer of light under the dark moonlight in the distance. Liu Yingying was stunned, and immediately raised her head and looked far away?
firefly?
While my heart was slightly startled, I finally calmed down again. Where did the fireflies come from in this season?
However, he knew clearly that it was not a firefly, but for some reason, when his thoughts were concentrated, the person had already got off the bed.
The autumn night already has a hint of coldness.
The dew was heavy with frost, and Liu Yingying came barefoot to the courtyard. She subconsciously shrank her feet and gathered the shawl on her shoulders.
I actually felt a little chilly.
However, even so, he still explored the direction he was staring at step by step. When he reached the end of the courtyard, he saw dew on the leaves, sparkling under the bright moonlight. Looking from a distance, it looked like It's fluorescent light.
Looking at the sparkling leaves, Liu Yingying twitched the corner of her mouth, and then laughed at herself. After a while, she just picked a few branches and walked back step by step. After walking a few steps, she suddenly saw her again He stopped and suddenly turned around and looked outside the courtyard, only to see that it was quiet and empty in the dark night.
Liu Yingying watched steadily, and finally turned around and entered the house step by step.
With a creak, the door was closed.
At this time, I saw a tall and mighty figure slowly walking out from the back of the big tree, standing in the courtyard, hands behind his back, and his eyes motionless on the houses in the distance.
The lamp was lit in the house, and the graceful figure was projected on the door and window. It was clearly visible. The man's eyes were staring at it from a distance, following the figure as he walked into the house step by step. He took off his shawl and walked all the way. In front of the window, I bent down and rested my pillow on the window sill again, as if admiring the moon, as if in a daze, and as if waiting for something.
The night is getting darker.
There was silence all around.
Heaven and earth have fallen asleep.
The man watched steadily.
The people in the house stayed up all night, and he never left either.
Until the sky gradually turns gray, and a silk-white veil hangs down from the fingertips.
The man walked over quietly, picked up the handkerchief, put it to the tip of his nose, smelled it and slowly closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes, his cold phoenix eyes fell on the tired side of his face. He stared intently, and after a while, his slender fingers gently touched him instead of his eyes.
The coolness on his cheeks made his fingertips pause slightly.
Shen Lang lowered his eyes and gently stroked the beautiful face. Shen's majestic gaze looked at her almost attentively. His long fingertips touched the jade-white cheeks, the straight bridge of his nose, and then gently stroked the beautiful face. A thin, curved willow-leaf eyebrow finally landed on the center of the eyebrow.
Xu Shi was lying on his side, squeezing his entire face out of shape, and he saw a shallow fold between his beautiful and jade-like eyebrows.
Shen Lang's rough fingertips came to the center of the eyebrows, as if he wanted to smooth out the delicate folds. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the face under the fingertips frowned slightly, as if he was about to wake up. At the same time, , Outside the courtyard, Wu Yong has arrived quietly.
When Liu Yingying woke up, she raised her hand sleepily and waved it in front of her, as if to push away the annoying tease in front of her. Unexpectedly, her hand accidentally flew into the air and hit her on one side. On the window sill, Liu Yingying woke up instantly and took a closer look. The surroundings were clearly empty and empty of people.
At this moment, the sky is already bright.
The yard has begun to get lively with banging and banging.
Today, the Shen family is getting married.
Liu Yingying sat blankly in front of the window, spending a full half-quarter of an hour to calm down all her emotions, and then got up, bathed, washed, and attended the banquet. However, the moment she stood up, a black cloak fell from her shoulders. slide.
Liu Yingying looked intently, and her expression was startled for the next moment. Just when she was about to pick up the cloak and take a closer look, she saw a high-pitched voice coming from outside the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Hey, Miss Liu got up early today."
Then he said: "Miss Liu, our master invites you."
*
It is said that although the Shen family's marriage was not a grand affair, it did not lack the proper etiquette.
Thousands of feet of red silk, lanterns and colorful decorations were decorated. At Mao o'clock, longan glutinous rice balls were distributed in each yard, and firecrackers began to be set off one after another in the yard, making it a lively and festive atmosphere.
Finally, I gradually came out of the heavy atmosphere of the past few days.
Sure enough, flushing with joy, using a big happy event can quickly wash away those painful and sad things.
People are forgetful, so they should start moving forward.
In the Yuqing Courtyard, the wedding room has been decorated within three days. There are lights and colors everywhere, and there are large swaths of red everywhere you look.
In the main room, a wedding dress was brought over from Shou'an Hall. After bathing and washing, Shen Lang was wearing a white undershirt. He was sitting behind the desk, writing something without raising his eyelids.
On such a festive day, he was no different from the past, but there was not much joy on his face.
The people of Shou'antang waited outside the house for half an hour with their wedding clothes. Finally, Mother Wu came in person, pushed the door open and said with a smile: "Sir, the auspicious time has come."
The figure on the desk held up the pen for a moment, and in an instant, a drop of black ink fell on the white rice paper. Shen Lang stared at the drop of thick ink, frowned slightly, and raised his hand to pinch it gently. He pinched his brows, then stood up expressionlessly, nodded to Mother Wu and said, "Thank you."
Then, the team holding the wedding uniforms filed in.
at the same time.
