Shen Yi's Darkness and Depression

Chapter 6 Oriole

The hazy moonlight poured into the emerald green bamboo clumps, and the mottled white spots on the bamboo leaves glowed with a faint halo, like teardrops that aroused pity. sentimental beauty.

"Hello, sister Xueqing." Hao Yun always called her sister so nicely with a little childish voice. Every time Xueqing saw his smile, she felt very warm, but this time she saw Hao Yun struggling. Zhang face, obviously should be a carefree age.

"Ah...it's Haoyun, what's the matter?" Xueqing thought that she must be too focused, so she didn't even hear his footsteps.

"Sister Xueqing, I heard that Master Murong came to the mansion today, is that right? Hmm... Is the situation of our master not good?" Hao Yun was slightly concerned.

"The young master asked you to ask?" Xue Qing asked back, frowning.

"No, it's just that I want to inquire about it." Hao Yun hurriedly shook his head in denial.

"Well, this... I don't know very well. It's Mr. Murong who the eldest lady and Steward Cao went to see. I don't know what's going on." Xue Qing didn't know how to answer, after all, Miss Yi still wanted to keep the young master from knowing. It's good, lest he worry about losing his temper again.

"Didn't Missy talk to Sister Xueqing all the time?" Hao Yun's straightforward questioning really made Xueqing feel difficult. She knew the young master very well, and she also knew that Hao Yun had been with the young master since childhood, and the relationship between the two was very different. Generally close, if you really let the young master know that the master is in a critical situation, you must go to save the master!
"Hao Yun, you know your young master's temper best. He hasn't let go of his anger in the past two days, otherwise he can't hurt our lady. I'd better wait for Lord Murong to investigate clearly before telling you about the matter of the master. "At this moment, Xue Qing refused to admit it, presumably this clever child also guessed seven or eight points, but just wanted to be sure.

"Alright, sister Xueqing, pay attention to adding clothes late at night." Hao Yun nodded hard, he understood sister Xueqing's worry, but he also understood the worry of the young master.His mother's exhortations before she died suddenly sounded in his ears, she said, Hao Yun, even if you are alone, you must live a good life.

"Ah...no...don't..."

You Chen was woken up by her sister's sleep talk, the soft moonlight shone into the room, coating Yun Wan's cheeks with a luster like white jade.

Looking at Yun Guan's furrowed brows in her sleep, You Chen knew that her sister was having a nightmare, how much he wanted to soothe the sorrow on her brow, how much he wanted to take away the uneasiness in her heart, how much he wanted to let her There was a pleasant smile on the corner of her mouth, and he wanted to paint traces of happiness on the corners of her eyes.

But at this time, he could only hold her hand tightly to convey warmth, and he could only quietly look at her face and worry about how sad she was going through in the dream.

Just like when Youchen was a child when she occasionally suffered from insomnia and stood by the window gazing at the night sky, watching quietly, watching her sister sitting on the corner of the eaves also looking up at the twinkling stars.He knew that she must be very sad, and he also knew that he was powerless to dissipate her sadness.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw You Chen sleeping soundly lying on the bedside, the sun shining on his handsome face, Yun Wan's heart suddenly felt warm.Messy hair, pale face, clothes stained by soup, Yuchen is in a mess now, but Yunwan feels at ease, because there is a younger brother guarding her side, otherwise how could she sleep so peacefully , It seems that it has been a long time since I slept so soundly.

You Chen held Yun Wan's injured hand tightly so that she didn't dare to move, for fear of waking him up, maybe he didn't close his eyes all night.

Thinking of this, Yun Wan gently closed her eyes again, enjoying the long-lost quiet morning light, and could vaguely hear the two orioles in Chunhui Hall. If her father was still there, he would be there as usual at this moment. Tease the caged bird.

In the past, Yunwan always complained that the two orioles raised by his father were not well-bred, always waking up other people's dreams.

Once the birds annoyed Yun Wan, so she secretly let them go behind her father's back. When they disappeared from her sight with fluttering wings, she suddenly felt that purity was so beautiful. He was very displeased to find that his beloved bird had flown away. When she asked her about it, she only pretended to be innocent and said that maybe they both yearned for freedom and flew out of the cage by themselves.

Unfortunately, the next morning, she heard the same cry again, which made Yunwan even more upset. She thought her father was having trouble with her and bought two for entertainment.

Yunwan later found out that the two orioles flew back again, perhaps because they needed food from their masters, or perhaps because they really missed their living environment. In short, when Yunwan wanted to let them out of the cage again, the two The little guy was just flopping around in the cage, determined not to come out.

But since the master disappeared, one of the two orioles died of illness in the cage, and the other flew away. It is unknown who forgot to close the cage door after feeding, or who deliberately released the oriole as if the little guy could find the master.

Yunwan buried the dead one in the flowers of Yunxiang Pavilion. Even if she hated the birds chirping to wake up other people's dreams, she would not throw it into the wilderness. After all, hiding it in the soil can provide some flowers for her. Nutrients, contribute a little bit of power that was once a living thing.

But the lost oriole didn't come back after three or four days, so there was no joy in Chunhui Hall, and the empty cage hung under the eaves, looking extremely lonely.

Yun Wan found that Youchen often stared at the cage in a daze, fearing that he would be too sentimental, so she secretly bought a similar-looking oriole and brought it back to the house, and lied to Youchen that the one that flew away had returned, but she was actually more afraid of it. One day the master suddenly returned home to look for his beloved bird.

The spirit of all things is the origin of the world, like the beginning of the heart, like the goodness of nature, all come from the dust and return to the soil.
