Chapter 176 Call
Yingchun returned to Sun's house in a carriage and walked into his yard. Xiao Cui saw that Yingchun came back and smiled: "Madam is back. Jia's house has been here. I just left."
Yingchun was stunned, "Is someone from Jia's house?"
Xiao Cui nodded.
Yingchun quickly walked into the main room. Si Zhu was walking in the house. Seeing Yingchun coming in, he immediately laughed and said, "Madam, you are back. There are people from Jia's house."
"What's the matter?"
Si Zhu took Yingchun's coat and said, "The old lady sent someone and said that the Empress Yuanfei was sick. The Empress thought of her in her heart and asked her to go to the palace with the old lady tomorrow."
Is the mother sick? Yingchun sat on the kang and meditated. Yingchun felt that Yuanfei was becoming more and more abnormal. In the past, she did not have a deep sisterhood with Yingchun in the Red Mansions. She was not as good as Daiyu, but now she has been rewarded and summoned again and again. All this is too unusual.
Yingchun leaned on the little ones and looked at the corner of the kang and thought about it. The imperial concubine's family is in full shape, and she can't be a concubine's daughter. Moreover, although Sun Shaozu is a military attache, she is not a military meritorious and powerful figure. As for Yuanfei, a woman who has never come out, can enter the position of concubine, which shows that this person is by no means ordinary. Xiande Shuliang is just an official word. Everyone knows where the harem is. It is not just a virtuous person who will be awarded the title of concubine. In this way, it can be seen how meticulous the Yuanfei's mind is and how profound the city is. So, what is the purpose of Yuanfei doing this to herself?
My heart moved to welcome the spring, but I'm afraid that everything is not so simple.
In the afternoon, Sun Shaozu came back from the government. Yingchun didn't say anything about last night, and Sun Shaozu didn't say anything about himself in the small study. The husband and wife gossiped a few words, but Yingchun faintly felt that although Sun Shaozu's words were ordinary, they lacked the usual jokes.
Sizhu and several maids set meals. Sun Shaozu sat down and took a sip of soup and said, "I also have something to tell you. Well, well, I'm going to Aunt Chen's yard tomorrow night.
Welcoming the spring with a "oh".
Sun Shaozu's sitting body moved back, "It's okay. It's just... Well, just look at her. You don't have to be more careful."
Yingchun smiled and still didn't say anything.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward. Both husband and wife were bored eating for a long time, and no one made a sound.
After a while, Yingchun raised her head and looked at Sun Shaozu, "I'm going to go to the palace with the old lady tomorrow. The imperial concubine is sick and misses me very much."
Sun Shaozu also raised his head and his eyes shrank, "Only you and the old lady?"
"I don't know the specifics. When I came back from Mrs. Lu's house, the girls told me that Jia's house sent someone to say it."
Sun Shaozu's eyebrows were wrinkled, and Yingchun knew that Sun Shaozu probably also thought of his own problems. Indeed, it doesn't make any sense for the Empress Yuan to do this.
After a while, Sun Shaozu said again, "Well, you should go back early. The palace is very regular, and you should be more careful about everything. At least you have entered the palace once."
A nod in the spring.
Another silence.
That night, Sun Shaozu did not go to the small study, but Sun Shaozu read the bookcase for a while and fell asleep first. Yingchun faced the wall and sighed gently.
Sometimes, it is close at hand, but the heart is far away from the world.
Sun Shaozu went to bed on the third watch. Although Yingchun was awake at that time, he did not speak or open his eyes, as if he was really asleep. Sun Shaozu sat in ** for a while before lying down and sleeping.
That night, I don't remember when I fell asleep. It seemed that not long after, Si Zhu whispered outside the door, "Madam, it's time to get up. It's time."
Yingchun sat up, gently got out of bed from Sun Shaozu's feet and put on his clothes. Si Zhu heard the movement inside and gently opened the door to serve the spring clothes.
After dressing up for spring, Huaijiao has arranged breakfast. Yingchun sat down and took a few bites, then stood up and wiped the corners of his mouth. Si Zhu went back and forth, and the carriage was ready. Yingchun took Si Zhu and Huaijiao out of the main room.
With the sound of the door closing, Sun Shaozu opened his eyes. In fact, he woke up early, but he didn't remember. The thoughtfulness of Yingchun is always so subtle in every little thing. How can he refuse this kind of kindness? It's better to pretend to be asleep and fulfill the kindness of the spring.
Sun Shaozu sat up. Why did the Yuanfei suddenly become so kind to Yingchun? Can't it be... Yuanfei is also thinking about the master's thing? Thinking of this, Sun Shaozu frowned and should not stop. This matter is so serious. Although there have been rumors for a long time, except for his master in the court, everyone only regards it as a story. No one should cares about such a thing so much.
Sun Shaozu gently wiped his thumb nail with his index finger, and he could not despise this matter. After all, the nobles in the palace are not simple figures. Sun Shaozu sat up and put on his clothes.
Zelan heard a movement inside and went to the door and asked softly, "Master, is it okay for me to come in to serve you?"
Sun Shaozu's muffled voice came from the room, "No, just set meals."
Zelan looked at the closed door, his eyes shook, and he answered the sound to prepare.
Wingchun arrived at Jia's house and entered Jia's mother's yard. A little girl has long raised a curtain to welcome the spring and came in to welcome the spring. The mandarin duck was helping Jia's mother change her clothes. When Jia's mother saw Yingchun coming, she smiled and said, "The second girl is here. Can you have breakfast?"
Yingchun saluted Jia's mother with a smile, and then said, "I have used it in the house. Thank you for your memory."
Jia's mother said to Yingchun with a smile, "Second girl, the eggplant you brought is really delicious, and your brother also loves it. I'm still thinking, why don't you let someone go to your village and learn from that cook one day?
Yingchun smiled and said to Jia's mother, "As long as the old lady likes to eat, you don't have to bother people to learn. I'll just ask Zhuangzi to send some more."
Jia's mother looked at Yingchun and smiled and said, "Although you are thoughtful, how can you always send it back and there like this?"
Yingchun giggled: "Old lady, don't you know that if you don't teach a trick for a while? I also want to leave a hand for myself. Not to mention anything else, I just took this eggplant to seduce the greedy worms of the old lady and the baby brothers. Are you afraid that you won't always miss me?
Mrs Jia laughed and said, "You second girl, I really ruined you and made fun of me. Well, all right, who let you have the gold and steel diamond in your hand?
Yingchun and several girls all laughed.
At this time, Jia's mother also packed up. Jia's mother said to Yingchun, "Second girl, let's go today. You can have a car with me. I haven't talked to you for a long time."
Yingchun nodded with a smile.
