Chapter 11: Ancient Acacia Song-1
A few months later, the eight members of the Qin family carried a big sedan chair to the door, and Tang Xiaoshi sat in the wedding sedan chair. She couldn't help but secretly delighted at seeing herself covered in joy. She gently raised the curtain of the sedan chair with the brocade fan in her hand, and peeked at the same person on the horse's back in front of her. Qin Zhi in a happy suit.
"Lady." The wall of the sedan chair was patted lightly, and Alan reminded softly.
She put down the curtain of the sedan chair, leaned against the inside of the sedan chair and fanned the brocade fan, and began to fantasize.
Kicking the sedan chair door in front of Qin's house, Xi Po came up to carry her off the sedan chair, Qin Zhi immediately rewarded Xi Po to avoid her and to carry her by herself.
"Your Majesty, this is against the rules."
"It doesn't matter if I don't follow these insignificant rules, I won't go anywhere if I recite my own wife's rules."
Xi Po said a few words of congratulations and stepped aside.Qin Zhi smiled and said, "My lady is home."
Tang Xiaoshi pursed her lips and suppressed a smile, lay on his back, and let him carry her into the gate of Qin's house.
Surrounded by countless guests and neighbors, the joy blew more and more joyously, and no one noticed a lonely figure in the street crowd, wearing a light-colored gown, looking resentfully at the bridegroom carrying the bride as he entered the mansion happily amidst the sound of blessings.
The big red wedding cloth, the lanterns full of double happiness, and the door couplets full of blessings, everything is dazzling.The laughter of the guests and neighbors, the waves of joy filled his ears and almost burst his head.
In the past, he welcomed her in like this, and he also led her to pay homage with great joy, but in the end she left with the greatest resentment in his heart.
He clenched his fists tightly, his vision blurred, and he turned to look at his right hand, as well as the bite marks left by her, with a tear falling from his eyes.
After worshiping, Tang Xiaoshi was sent to the wedding room, Qin Zhi went to the front to greet the guests, Alan and Azhi were busy with the things she arranged, she was alone in the room, she was so tired that she lay on the wedding couch without any scruples superior.
With a long sigh, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Xiposa's red dates, wiped them and stuffed them into his mouth to eat.
I haven't eaten since morning, and I'm so hungry that I don't have any energy.
After eating a few, I felt my mouth was a little dry, so I ran to the table and poured a cup of tea, which was warm.There are pastries on the table, which turned out to be the ones she likes most in the Peach Blossom Pavilion, so she sat down and ate them.
After eating and drinking enough, he lay back on the couch to rest again, closed his eyes and thought wildly in his head, until his cheeks were flushed and his heart was beating like thunder.
She hurriedly reached out and patted her cheek to wake herself up.
After a while, there was a sound from outside the door, and then the door was pushed open. Qin Zhi straightened his clothes in front of the door and walked in.
She immediately sat up from the couch and fumbled for the brocade fan, only to find that she had left the brocade fan on the tea table.
Seeing her flustered, Qin Zhi glanced at the brocade fan on the table, and said with a smile, "Why do you still need a brocade fan?"
"This process still has to go through!" She said softly.
"Red tape is useless, it is better to save it."
"Then make a glass of wine..."
"It can't be saved."
Alan came in with a glass of wine, glanced at the two of them, smiled and said happy and left.
Qin Zhi poured two glasses: "From now on, you and I will be one, and we will share joys and sorrows together." After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said with a smile, "It's fine to share joys and sorrows, and I will bear them."
"To share weal and woe, we can last forever."
"Siao'er, I... can't bear you to suffer anymore, I will do my best to make you worry-free for the rest of your life."
She lowered her eyes slightly, she was happy but also sad. Joy was her emotion, and that sadness seemed to come from Yao Tiao.
"Likuro, thank you."
"From now on, you and I will be husband and wife, don't talk about such birth."
Tang Xiaoshi nodded with a smile, and Qin Zhi handed her the wine glass, and whispered into her ear: "Drink the wine, and when you're a little drunk, a good night and a spring night are the most wonderful."
Tang Xiaoshi's ears suddenly became hot, her heart almost jumped out, and her whole body felt a little hot.
"My lady please."
Tang Xiaoshi was stunned for a moment, glanced at the wine in her hand, and laughed again, what's so embarrassing about this kind of thing.
"My lord, please."
The hibiscus tent is warm with clouds and rain, and the two bodies are pushed together in the dark.Crazy butterflies in love with flowers and Wushan's dream will be turned upside down endlessly.
Another summer lotus garden.
"My lady, here comes the iced sweet cheese." Qin Zhi walked into the stone platform under the green shade with a food box, and took out a glass cup from the porcelain basin mixed with ice and water in the food box, which contained milky white sweet cheese. Sweet and tempting.
Tang Xiaoshi was already salivating with anxiety.
Qin Zhi handed her the spoon, and warned dotingly: "Just this once, don't make another example."
"It's too hot, it's okay to eat something cold, I'm in good health."
"That's not okay. You can't eat cold and raw things. You must keep them at any time. Alan Azhi, remember to keep an eye on the lady and don't secretly help her buy them. Let me know that I won't forgive you."
Alan and Azhi responded with a smile: "Your Majesty has said it no less than a hundred times, and the servants have engraved it in their minds."
"That's good."
Tang Xiaoshi doesn't care what he says, she can't wait for ice cream cheese to be eaten on such a hot day.
"Cool, sweet and refreshing." Smiling, he dug a spoonful and fed it to Qin Zhi, "Taste it."
Qin Zhi looked at her like a greedy cat, and said with a smile: "Eat it, it will completely satisfy your craving, and it will be gone next time."
She smiled and swallowed a spoonful, and suddenly her movements froze, with a slight frown between her brows.
"What's wrong?" Qin Zhi asked nervously.
"He kicked me." She pointed down at her swollen stomach.
Qin Zhi caressed gently, and said in a considerate tone: "Is it because your mother is disobedient and ate cold food, and you are unhappy? Sigh! Aye can't control your mother, I will rely on you from now on .” After speaking, he patted him lightly twice, as if he had entrusted him with great trust.
Tang Xiaoshi laughed out loud, pointed at her belly and said, "If you don't obey me, I won't give you food."
The two sat in the shade of the tree for a long time, the weather was cooler, they wandered around the lotus garden for a while and then went back out of the garden.
As soon as he walked to the main entrance of the lotus garden, he saw a tall and burly figure walking from the opposite corridor, followed by only a young servant.
Seeing her, the other party stopped, his eyes fell on her swollen abdomen, his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of sadness.
She unconsciously reached out to caress her stomach.
Qin Zhi also noticed the other party's gaze, and stopped to look at her.Two years have passed, and she has never mentioned this person again in the past two years, and it seems that she has completely forgotten it, but he knows that those past injuries and shadows are still in her heart and have not been completely erased.
He needs time to heal her slowly, and she needs time to heal slowly.
Tang Xiaoshi never thought that she would see him again.She has no relationship with him, and he is nothing more than an early acquaintance to her.
"Let's go home!" She looked sideways at Qin Zhi and smiled softly.
"Okay." Qin Zhi supported her and walked slowly out of the garden, got into the carriage, lowered the curtain, and the carriage drove away slowly.
A pair of eyes in front of the Heyuan gate followed the carriage away.
"Siao'er, I was wrong, I learned how to be nice to a person, but..."
He looked down at the scar on the back of his hand and rubbed it for a long time.
-
Autumn leaves dance in the autumn wind, and the feeling of autumn is stronger.
Sitting on the table and leaning against the small window, Tang Xiaoshi looked at the yellow leaves falling with the wind in front of the small building, sighed with emotion, twisted the handkerchief with her delicate fingers boredly.
On the carriage back to Qin's residence from Heyuan, she felt a constant pain in a certain tendon in her head, and finally that tendon twitched a few times before she lost consciousness.When she woke up, she became Xiao Yiren, the young daughter of Marquis of Changdu in this fictional era.
When she first passed through, Xiao Yiren was ill, and she suffered a lot.After finally taking care of her body, it rained several times in a row, so she was locked in the courtyard of the Houmen Shenfu, to be precise, in the small building where she lived, and did not go out several times a month. Almost got depressed.
Maybe it doesn't feel like this for a woman born in this era, but for a person who has come in the era of entertainment and information explosion, it is no different from being in a death row.
It's no wonder that Xiao Yiren would never forget that Chu Ronghe, and fell in love with him.
You can count the cousins you've met all year round on your fingers.Chu Rongyu is indeed good at picking generals among the cripples.
Uh... Actually, Chu Rongyu is really good!It can be said that he is tall, rich and handsome!
The third son of the prime minister, handsome in appearance, outstanding in talent and learning, gentle in temperament, very self-motivated, throwing fruit carts every time he goes out is by no means a boast.
It's just that such an excellent son, winning that will naturally show his charm and sense of accomplishment, and he can also sprinkle a city's worth of dog food, making thousands of girls envious and jealous.But if he can't take it, he will become a secret love, a bitter lovesickness, and finally become like Xiao Yiren, lovesickness becomes sick, which will make people ridicule instead.
During this month nestled in the small building, she recounted Xiao Yiren's 13 years of life, and by the way, recalled Chu Rongyu several times.
It seems that they met each other at the Lantern Market during the Shangyuan Festival, and then met briefly at the grandmother's birthday banquet. The two of them probably didn't speak more than ten sentences face to face, and Xiao Yiren was so frightened.
She concluded: She is still young, heavy-minded, and rarely sees men.
Otherwise, how could the elder sister who is also obsessed with Chu Rongyu not be depressed?Every day is also happy, alive and kicking.
Just thinking about the eldest half sister, the maid came back and said: "The eldest girl is here."
She glanced sideways over the osmanthus tree in front of the small building and saw a 15-year-old girl with a beautiful face, her smile was hard to hide, and her steps were brisk.
Seeing someone walk into the small building, she jumped off the table.
"Sister, why are you free to come over today?" She greeted the stairs and asked with a smile on her face.
Xiao Liren looked up at her, was stunned for a moment, and then walked upstairs with a gentle smile: "Let me take a look at your body. After being ill for so long, you finally improved. Yesterday was another night of wind and rain. It's a bit cold, but don't suffer from the cold."
The person who was speaking had already come upstairs, took her hand and rubbed it twice, and frowned: "This hand is cold, why don't you put on more clothes." He ordered the maidservant at the side to get a coat.
"I'm not cold." She took advantage of the opportunity to pull Xiao Liren to sit down on the cushion beside the small table, and the maid had already brought the coat for her to put on.
"Sister, don't worry about me. I'm not a child. I know how to be hungry and cold."
"If you really knew, you wouldn't have been sick for so long." He beckoned the maidservant at the side to bring over two cups of hot drinks, and greeted her warmly.In the eyes of others, this eldest sister cared for her very much, and she had a deep sisterly affection for each other.
Tang Xiaoshi sneered in her heart, didn't she know why Xiao Yiren was ill for so long?
The cruelest way to kill in this world is words.It's not a sword, it's sharper than a sword, it's not like poison, and it's better than poison if it pierces the intestines.
She took a sip of her drink, smiled without saying a word.
Xiao Liren smiled again and said: "However, I see that your complexion is much better today, and you are in a good mood, but if you encounter something interesting, tell me about it, I want to have a good time too."
Tang Xiaoshi pursed her lips and smiled, maybe as a bystander, she could clearly see this elder sister's temperament from Xiao Yiren's memory and her relationship with her in the past month.The so-called joy for her is mostly Xiao Liren's joy based on Xiao Yiren's tears.
They are half-sisters, and their relationship is not very good, but it is not bad. My father never favors anyone, and even my biological mother, Mrs. Hou, treats them equally.
Originally they were harmonious, until they met Chu Rongyu together at the Lantern Market on the Lantern Festival, and the relationship began to fade.Later, at the grandmother's birthday banquet, she met Chu Rongyu again, and they both fell in love with Chu Rongyu at the same time. Xiao Liren's words and demeanor towards her sister changed.
She would often mention Chu Rongyu in front of her, saying that she had found out what Chu Rongyu liked and what he didn't like.But Chu Rong and what she likes and dislikes happen to be completely opposite to her.
She would often frown deeply and look sad and tell her which girl Chu Rong got close to, what gift she gave, and go to see her in person.Later, it was said that which princess fell in love with Chu Rongyu, and a son like Chu Rong would definitely belong to Princess Shang in the future.
The tone was sad and desolate, lamenting that lovesickness was lost, and a gloomy expression made Xiao Yiren feel melancholy and depressed every time he listened to it.
Later, when Chu Rong left Beijing to study, Xiao Liren even said a lot of hardships and dangers in front of her, poor food, clothing, housing and transportation conditions, tired and sick, etc., and even some alarmist words.Although it sounds like a word of worry and concern, it actually makes people who really care about worry more and worry more, and have trouble sleeping and eating.
But she herself was fine, but she didn't care at all.
Perhaps it was because she was young and innocent, so she didn't think too much about it, and was led by the elder sister, causing her to fall in love with each other.
Even so, the eldest sister still made wild guesses in front of her from time to time, and her condition became more and more serious.
If it wasn't for her to wear it, if things go on like this, I really don't know how long this body can last.
She smiled sweetly and said, "After the rain, my sister came to see me again. There's no reason why I'm in a bad mood."
"It's sunny after the rain?" Xiao Liren muttered, looking out of the window, the thin sunlight was hitting the top of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.She got up and went to the window and looked towards the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.
"There have been several intermittent rains this month, and the sweet-scented osmanthus has all fallen. A month ago, the trees were still full of fragrance, and now even the leaves are falling... I heard that autumn comes late in Chudi, so I don't know whether the sweet-scented osmanthus blooms or falls. "
With a long sigh: "I haven't smelled the sweet-scented osmanthus for a few days. I thought about picking some to make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes a few days ago, but now..." Another long sigh of regret.
Tang Xiaoshi smiled and swirled the cups, autumn rain, fallen leaves, fallen flowers, Chu land, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, nothing fell.
If this passage is told to the sentimental Xiao Yiren, at this moment he will inevitably think of Chu Rongyu again, think wildly, and finally weep sadly.
But she wasn't in the mood to feel sorry for someone she remembered.
"What sister said was that when the flowers were in full bloom, I had someone pick some of them, and now I'm still hiding them!" As she spoke, Xirui, the maid beside her, brought over a brocade bag and handed it to Xiao Liren with a smile, "This is my flower bag." The ones that are treasured will be given to my sister."
Xiao Liren was a little surprised. Opening the brocade bag, it was filled with dried sweet-scented osmanthus petals, and the fragrance was still there.
"You ordered someone to collect it, why did you give it all to me?"
"I'm waiting to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my sister!" She smiled mischievously, returned to her original seat and sat down, and added, "Father has always liked the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my sister. If I can eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my sister, I will be happy."
Xiao Liren was surprised, she glanced at the brocade bag in her hand, and then at her sister with an innocent face beside the table: "Don't you not like sweet-scented osmanthus cake?"
"So many people like to eat it, I think I can try to eat some, maybe I will like it after getting used to it? Sister is not willing to give me a plate to try?"
"Of course not." Xiao Liren forced a smile, pinched Tang Xiaoshi's face, "I didn't expect you to change your taste."
She raised her hand and took Xiao Liren's hand away, and said with a smile: "The body is getting better, and the taste is getting better." Then she tilted her head and asked, "Sister, do you think I look good when I gain weight?"
"You look good no matter what."
She smirked a few times: "Then I will eat more in the future, so that I can be strong."
Xiao Liren giggled a few times, patted her on the head dotingly and said: "You have been sick for so long and have become so skinny, you really should make up for it, I will make the kitchen more Let me make you some nourishing soup."
"Well, thank you sister."
When Xiao Liren left the small building with her maid, Tang Xiaoshi got up and went back to the window to watch people walk out of the small courtyard, then took a roll of music from the table and looked at it.
Although she grew up playing Guqin in elementary school, this music score is just a ghostly talisman in her eyes. If it wasn't for Xiao Yiren's memory, she decided to treat it as a heavenly book.
These days her body is getting better, so she is studying this score, but she still doesn't understand many things.
After thinking hard for a while, she ordered the servant to move the Qin to the Linshui Terrace in the back garden, where she wanted to ponder.In the past, Xiao Yiren would go to Linshuitai whenever he encountered an unpredictable piece of music, and he could understand it every time. Xiao Yiren even named Linshuitai "Qizhitai".
Xirui glanced outside, dissuading: "It's cool outside, the sun isn't good, Linshuitai is even colder. The lady just recovered, so don't go there, and play the piano inside the building, and go there when the weather improves."
She thought about it, but it was true, the body was still important, and the capital of the revolution could not be lost. If she fell ill again, wouldn't that make some people proud?
Two days later, there was no wind in the afternoon and the sun was warm. She took the serving maids to the back garden Linshuitai, but saw a group of maids entering the garden with tea, fruit and snacks.
She called a maid and asked, "Is there a guest in the mansion today? Whose guest?"
"It's a distinguished guest invited by Lord Dalang."
"Honored guest?" She glanced in the direction where the maidservants left, "Which honored guest?"
"I heard it's the young general of General Liang's family."
"Beam rafters?"
"Yes!"
