Chapter 5
Yu Mansion——
The little blue figure hurriedly passed through the long corridor and headed straight for the east wing——
"Miss, miss—"
Yu Jingshu didn't raise her head when she heard the sound, because she was copying Mrs. Wei's "Ming Ji Tie" in her hand, and the most important moment was at the moment, and she asked after the last gesture——
"what's up?"
But her eyes were still fixed on the bamboo paper on the table, Qianqiansu pinched a corner with each hand, and gently blew on the wet ink on it.
Seeing his young lady's slow and leisurely appearance, Chi Yu couldn't help rolling his eyes, and suddenly covered his mouth and smiled.
When Yu Jingshu heard the voice, she turned her head away. She had an oval face, crescent eyebrows, and a pair of lychee eyes filled with doubts, but she didn't have any pretensions about her master. She asked softly——
"What are you laughing at?"
Chi Yu bowed, and then walked to his lady's side——
"The maidservant is not laughing, but thinking, Miss, when will you change your slow temper."
Yu Jingshu saw that her introductory words didn't match the latter, and she was very confused, her brows were slightly frowned——
"You girl went out for a trip, why are you so dazed? You can't understand what you said."
After finishing speaking, his eyes returned to the copybook, and he nodded, looking quite satisfied——
"This picture is well written, but I can show it to Dad to have a look."
After speaking, he suddenly remembered something, immediately turned his head away, and asked again——
"Can you buy the sweet-scented osmanthus oil that I asked you to buy?"
"Miss, don't worry, even if Chi Yu forgets himself, he won't forget the osmanthus oil, but right now there is something more important than osmanthus oil—"
As Chi Yu spoke, he leaned over slightly, showing a mysterious expression, "Guess who I ran into when I went out just now—"
"Who did you meet?" Yu Jingshu watched her widen her eyes and pursed her lips tightly, with a look on her face that made her guess, and smiled, "Look at you, it's still a secret, just say what you have to say."
Chi Yu pursed his lips, turned around and looked outside carefully, and saw that there was no one else, then turned back, covered his young lady's face, and bit his ear——
"What you said is true?!"
Yu Jingshu's fingers tightened suddenly, and she immediately tilted her head to look.
"It's absolutely true, Chang Wang told me personally that when Second Master Rong came back at noon yesterday, his father led him and a group of young servants to wait outside the gate of the mansion for quite a while, and the reception mat was used up. "
"It's just past Laba today, and this time I came back so early—" Yu Jingshu hastily put down the copybook in her hand, the corners of her eyes and brows couldn't stop raising, her previous gentle expression was full of uncontrollable joy now, Then he became annoyed again, "I'm so stupid, I should have thought of it earlier, my aunt has been ill a few days ago, and the second brother must have received a letter from home, so he came back early."
After saying that, she couldn't sit still immediately, the copybook she treasured in her hand just now didn't even bother to tidy it up, she put it on the desk without looking at it, and paced back and forth in the room, how could she care about it? It looks a little slow just now.
"Miss, what are you going to do?"
"No, I have to go to the Xue residence."
Chi Yu was taken aback by his young lady's anxious appearance, and quickly pulled him back——
"You have to have a reason to go? Just go by like this, what do you say?"
Only then did Yu Jingshu react suddenly, and immediately stopped in her tracks, looking down at the moon-white dress below her——
"That's right, thanks to you reminding me, I have to find a reason."
After saying that, he temporarily suppressed the urgency in his heart, raised his eyes to look around the room, and suddenly raised his eyebrows——
"Yes! Go to the bookshelf and get the celadon cup set I got a few days ago."
Chi Yu was taken aback for a moment——
"Miss, that is a gift from the old lady to you."
Yu Jingshu bit the corner of her mouth, her cheeks on both sides were slightly red——
"Don't talk about it, you can take it if you are told. If it is not a good one, I will not give it away."
Chi Yu was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't go against his own lady's wishes, so he just fetched the things first, and then asked——
"If the old lady asks, what can you say?"
"I haven't made up my mind yet. I'll talk about it after I ask, but since it was given to me, it's my property. Grandma never asks about it."
While touching the red brocade box in his hand, Chi Yu looked at his young lady——
"You are really kind to Second Master Rong, if there is no such thing as Missy—"
Yu Jingshu's face froze when she heard the words, and the blush just disappeared, Chi Yu quickly bit her tongue when she saw this——
"Miss, the slave girl said the wrong thing, the slave girl didn't mean that—"
It turned out that Yu Jingshu had a sister, Yu Minyi, who was a compatriot, and she was the same age as Xue Yanrong. At first, the relationship between the two families was good, and it was natural for the children to be engaged. However, Xue Yanrong was weak at the beginning. After a long time, he was sent to the Foguang Temple in Qizhou, Zheng Junqing's hometown, so that he could adopt him to the Buddha and seek the blessing of the Buddha so that he could grow up. After that, Xue Yanrong's originally frail body became healthier day by day, and he was not sent back to the capital until he was 12 years old. It stands to reason that after he recovered his body, he should prepare for his marriage, but the eminent monk who sent him back specifically warned him ——
Xue Yanrong's fate is doomed, and she must not marry a wife and have children prematurely. She must wait until she reaches the crown at the earliest, otherwise gods and Buddhas will not be able to save her. Zheng Junqing has always believed in such things, so the matter of marriage can only be It can be postponed, but anyway, the two parties have already agreed in private, and they are not afraid that anyone will change their minds midway, but even if they wait for a few years, they can afford to wait.
But by coincidence, when Xue Yanrong was [-] years old, Xue Huaili's old illness relapsed, and he passed away in less than half a month. As a result, the marriage of the two families had to be postponed for another three years. Although the Yu family was unhappy , but after all, this is also an unexpected thing. After all, the dead are the most important, and filial piety is the first, so I have to wait. Xue Yanrong then went to manage business outside the customs, but before she returned, a letter came Passed to the hand——
It turned out that it was Yu Minyi who was secretly meeting with another son of an official family in Beijing, but the uncooked rice became cooked rice, and this long-awaited marriage was abandoned.
The relationship between Xue and Yu's two families was originally good, but because of this scandal, the three families didn't see each other for a while, and it was very embarrassing. Fortunately, Yu Minyi's husband's family was transferred to Huzhou not long after. This embarrassing scene was brought to an end.
Yu Jingshu lowered her eyes, and raised her eyes after a long time, but she just shook her head, not showing any anger——
"Second brother is busy with work, and he only comes back at this time of the year. I, I have no other intentions. I just want to meet him. After all, the friendship from childhood is still there."
"Miss said that if the second master stayed longer, he would be able to understand Miss's good intentions."
At this moment, Yu's Jingshu lowered her eyes and stopped speaking. The appearance of Xue Yanrong unconsciously appeared in her mind, but her heart was extremely contradictory——
On the one hand, no matter how generous Xue Yanrong was when her sister did such a scandal, she would still have lumps in her heart;
On the other hand, I am secretly happy, because if my sister didn't do that scandalous thing, then Xue Yanrong is now my brother-in-law, even if I like him, I can be a concubine and work with my sister. After all, such a thing cannot be done by oneself.
After much deliberation——
The current situation is already the best——
He is not married, I am not married.
Sooner or later he will understand his own mind.
Thinking of this, the sadness on Yu Jingshu's face dissipated again, and a slight smile spread on her lips.
"Miss, you are so beautiful like this, the second master will definitely be fascinated by you."
"Go, what are you talking about?"
Chi Yu smiled very playfully, and looked like he was not afraid at all, shaking his head——
"The maidservant didn't say anything nonsense, even if all the women in the capital are picked out, our young lady is also the first among them!"
"Besides, I'll hit you—" Yu Jingshu waved her brocade handkerchief, but her cheeks were already full of red.
The two master and servant walked one after the other, and they were about to leave the house, but they ran into Yu Zhengqun at the screen wall——
"Ah, it's the master—" Chi Yu tugged on the sleeve of his young lady, stepped back quickly, wrapped the red brocade box in his arms with his sleeve, and then lowered his head.
Yu Jingshu bumped into her father unexpectedly, and she couldn't help panicking. After all, she was a big girl who hadn't left the cabinet, and she always ran to Xue's house. She could find reasons to prevaricate once or twice, but the number of times was too high, and her thoughts were hard to be discovered. , in front of her father and lord, she asked herself if she had the guts yet, and immediately bowed her body and greeted——
"Daddy, you're back."
Yu Zhengqun looked at his little daughter's well-behaved appearance, and nodded——
"Where is this going?"
Naturally, Yu Jingshu couldn't tell the truth, so she had to make up nonsense on the spot——
"A few days ago, my daughter heard that Liuxingbao on East Street had a new batch of Bu Yao, and she always wanted to go and see it. It happened that I practiced calligraphy early today, and now I have time, so I asked Chi Yu to accompany me there."
Naturally, Yu Zhengqun could not have imagined that his normally well-behaved and sensible daughter would be a master who wouldn't even bat an eye when she told a lie. Not only did she not think about it, but she handed over the stove in her hand, and said——
"It's cold outside, go early and come back early."
Seeing that her father didn't think much about it, Yu Jingshu breathed a sigh of relief, and waited for Yu Zhengmin to go far away before rushing out of the house with Chi Yu.
"Miss, you were so amazing just now, I was almost scared to death." Chi Yu breathed out several times.
Yu Jingshu only looked calm on the surface, but her heart was beating non-stop, she looked down at the stove in her hand, and now she felt a little guilty, because her father trusted her so much, but she lied in front of him, but for a moment Afterwards, she raised her head again, thinking that she would see Xue Yanrong in a while, all guilt and panic were immediately forgotten.
Turning his head, facing Chi Yu, he said softly——
"Let's go, let's go back quickly."
Chi Yu watched his young lady's hasty footsteps, and couldn't stop shaking her head——
It seems that the only one who can make my young lady get rid of her slow temper is Second Master Rong.
Immediately, he hurriedly quickened his pace——
"Miss, wait for me~~~"
Xue Mansion——
Zheng Junqing had just used the decoction, and Ningdong came to report——
"Ma'am, Second Miss Yu is here."
"Let her in quickly."
For Yu Jingshu, Zheng Junqing's dislike is not the same as that of Lu's. She likes it. The girl is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted. Although her sister did such a thing, a sister is a sister, and a sister is a sister. Well, the lengths of the five fingers sticking out are different, not to mention human beings, it's even more different. Besides, if her sister didn't do such a thing, how could Yan Rong get rid of her? body?It is also a bad thing turned into a good thing.
"Why are you still standing? Come and sit down." Zheng Jun took Yu Jingshu's hand kindly and kindly, and let her sit beside her, and then saw the red brocade box in Chi Yu's arms, "This is another gift for me." What novelty is it?"
Yu Jingshu is well-behaved and clever, and she really pleases her elders——
"It's a blue and white porcelain cup set. I just got it a few days ago and used it to relieve my aunt."
After finishing speaking, Chi Yu asked Chi Yu to open the brocade box and presented it over.
Zheng Junqing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took out one and looked at it carefully——
"I've seen a lot of cups, but this is the first time I've seen one inside the other."
Counting carefully, there are a total of twelve, except for the different sizes, the patterns, textures and colors are all the same, the largest is the size of a medium bowl for eating, and the smallest is only as big as a thumb.
"It's strange, it's really a good thing, it opened my old lady's eyes."
Yu Jingshu, who was praised, was not overjoyed, but Chi Yu, who was beside her, said quickly——
"Ma'am, you have good eyesight. This is a gift from my old lady to Miss."
Zheng Junqing was startled suddenly——
"The gift of Jiji, this is too precious."
"Auntie, don't listen to this girl's nonsense—" Yu Jingshu frowned at Chi Yu, and then said to Zheng Junqing: "There is a cup on the left and right, how can it be so precious? It's just a coincidence, and my aunt likes it so much now, so it's a good gift."
What she said was impeccable, but how could Zheng Junqing fail to see what she meant, Xue Yanrong just arrived yesterday, but she is here today, if it is a coincidence, it is too coincidental, seeing her hesitate to speak again, twisting her fingers Jinpa, the cheeks on both sides are still a little red, it seems that she has been well-dressed, such an obvious intention, so there is no need to say it?
Zheng Junqing is someone who has experienced it, and can see through everything at a glance.
It was hard for her, and after making such a big circle, she sighed silently in her heart, and then nodded calmly to Mother Luo who was waiting by her side——
But Mother Luo understood and left the house.
After a while, people arrived at Qizitang——
"Mother Luo is here?" Yao Shichu saw it as soon as the curtain was lifted.
"Is Brother Rong there?" Mother Luo asked.
"It's inside the house." Yao Shichu opened the curtain wide, turned sideways, asked Mama Luo to come in, and shouted to the back room, "Brother, Mama Luo is here."
"Brother Rong, Madam asked you to come over." Mother Luo said.
Xue Yanrong quickly put down the things in his hands, jumped off the soft couch, and asked eagerly——
"What's wrong? Is my mother feeling unwell again?"
"No, no, Madam has already taken the medicine, it's nothing serious, brother don't have to worry." Mother Luo quickly waved her hand and said, "This time is for other things."
"Anything else? What's the matter?"
Before Xue Yanrong breathed out, she heard Luo's mother say again——
"It's the second young lady of the Yu family who is here."
Before the words fell, Xue Yanrong frowned, as if he was a little reluctant.
Mother Luo seemed to have seen Xue Yanrong's thoughts, and before he could speak, she said again——
"The madam and the second young lady of the Yu family are in Shun'an Hall, you can go and have a look, and just go through the motions."
Luo's mother was able to say such things, naturally she was ordered by her own mother. Xue Yanrong was very troubled, but after all, her mother's fate was hard to break, so she sent someone to call her. If she didn't go, wouldn't her mother be unable to come down?
Xue Yanrong immediately regretted it, and she would have left just now if she knew about it.
Impatiently, he shook his front and walked out. Seeing this, Yao Shichu quickly chased after him——
"Second Lord! Put on a big cloak."
Yao Shichu put the cloak in his hand around Xue Yanrong's body, tied the knot in front of his collar, and lowered his voice——
"Go around and look around and then come back. You pretend to be like Bao Gong, it's scary."
"Baogong?"
"Well, you see—"
Yao Shichu pointed to the mirror not far away, and Xue Yanrong looked along——
It is said that Baogong is flattering.
"It's better to be outside the customs, feel at ease!"
After saying that, Xue Yanrong left the room.
When they arrived at Shun'an Hall, Xue Yanrong's face flushed passively, and he looked better than the previous Baogong——
First greeted Zheng Junqing, and then looked at Yu Jingshu. Just by looking, the eyes of the two met.
Xue Yanrong is nothing unusual, just going through the motions——
"Miss Yu Er is here."
A simple sentence made Yu Jingshu very nervous, she stood up abruptly, she was so flustered that she didn't even know what to say, the person she liked since she was a child is standing in front of her now, with such a gentle colleague Say hello, no matter who you are, you will be at a loss, and quickly lowered your head, but the blush on your face has already reached the base of your neck——
"Me, I met Brother Rong."
One was full of joy and wanted to plant it, and the other wanted to pick it off alone. Xue Yanrong looked at the woman with flushed cheeks in front of him, and his brows suddenly frowned again, so he could only turn his eyes to his mother for help.
Zheng Junqing understood Xue Yanrong's difficulties, but she couldn't bear to make Yu Jingshu feel sad. They are all good children, and they should have a good home.
"Don't stand still, sit down and talk with us." Zheng Junqing pointed to the chair beside her to signal Xue Yanrong to sit down, and then took Yu Jingshu's hand, "You too, she comes when she comes, but you still stand up, Anyway, I called her Second Brother, how can there be so many rules, sit down and sit down."
Only then did Yu Jingshu sit down again, but she couldn't concentrate on listening to what Zheng Junqing had to say, because Xue Yanrong was the only one in her eyes and heart at the moment.
As for Xue Yanrong, of course he didn't really chat with them. He sat quietly and waited, taking a few sips of tea from time to time, and only nodded when Zheng Junqing mentioned himself.
In the past, Yu Jingshu didn't feel that time passed quickly, but today, especially since Xue Yanrong came, the time seemed to have grown wings, and it was more than two rounds faster than usual. In the blink of an eye, it was almost It's noon.
When Yu Jingshu came, Yu Zhengqun told her to go early and come back early. If the time for lunch was delayed, her father would be suspicious, and if she was later punished, it would be fine. Chi Yu would suffer along with her. It is a personal servant, so she can only stand up and ask for resignation at this moment, and come back later when she finds another opportunity, but as soon as she said the words of farewell, she felt that her usually light legs and feet were now filled with lead. , extremely difficult and heavy, the raised eyes inadvertently glanced at Xue Yanrong's heroic face, and the little deer in his heart jumped up uncontrollably in an instant——
The fast time and the heavy steps are all just excuses. I just don't want to part with that person and say I'll look for a better time later, but I don't know when it is.
Xue Yanrong lowered his head and didn't see Yu Jingshu's eyes, but Zheng Junqing who was at the side looked at it clearly, blinked, then raised his hand to cover the corner of his mouth, coughed gently, and said to Yu Jingshu ——
"I'm inconvenient, so let Mother Luo see you off for me." After speaking, she turned her head to look at Xue Yanrong, and waved the handkerchief in her hand, "I'm tired, so you can go back to your yard."
An imperceptible strangeness flashed in Xue Yanrong's eyes when he heard the words, but he didn't show it, and just nodded silently.
On the other hand, Yu Jingshu was very happy, and if they went out together, they would be able to walk together on this journey.
A pure girl's mind is as simple as she always thinks, Xue Yanrong couldn't hide her joy when she looked at her face, and felt that it was a serious headache.
