Fengqi Jingshi

Chapter 8

Chuntao put down the bowl earlier, Shuya shook her head after taking a few mouthfuls, expressing that she didn't want to eat any more, she just leaned on Chuntao's shoulder and stared blankly at the ground.

Seeing Shu Yao, she stepped forward to replace Chuntao, hugging Shu Ya with one hand, and gently wiped the tears on her cheeks with a handkerchief in the other.

Seeing this, Chuntao sighed silently, and called Chunxia, ​​another big maid, to take Liu Mama and Qiushuang to dinner and arrange accommodation.

There was no one else in the room, only two sisters, Shuya and Shuyao, remained silent for a while.

After a while, Shu Ya suddenly raised her hand, felt under the pillow, found a green bracelet, hugged it in her arms, and said softly:
"He gave it to me... When he said he was just getting married, he went to Yongzhou by going out to study and secretly saw me... He bought this bracelet when he came back..."

In an instant, Shu Yao's tears overflowed.She thought that her elder sister might be made things difficult by her mother-in-law at her in-law's house, and it would be difficult to adapt to a place where she was not familiar. The greatest misfortune and sorrow.She didn't know what to say, so she hugged Shu Ya tightly.

Shu Yazhen held the bracelet with great care, and looked at it carefully for a while, then slowly turned her head and looked at Shu Yao, with tears welling up in her eyes, she said:
"He was so happy when he found out that I was pregnant. That night, I said that I wanted to eat the pickled radish skin from Shuangfengzhai... The next day, I waited for him to come back from school, and I waited for a long time... The boys brought him back, saying that the horse was startled, the young master fell off the horse... I put him down, but he couldn't even say a word..."

"Later, I smelled the smell of pickled radish from the clothes he changed...I realized that he went to buy me pickled radish skins...Shu Yao, I...I..."

Shu Ya was choked up and couldn't speak, tears were pouring down, her shoulders were shaking non-stop.Shu Yao hugged her tightly, let her tears fall on her shoulders, only patted her on the back lightly, and said over and over again:

"It's not your fault, it's not your fault..."

She felt Shuya shaking her head on her shoulder with difficulty, and the sadness in her heart became tighter and tighter. Her elder sister, without the protection of her mother, took on the burden of housekeeping very early on, and finally married a lover. Mr. Yue, such a thing happened in only one year, God, why is it so cruel?
Shu Ya was so sad, her body was weak, she cried and fell asleep on Shu Yao's shoulder.Shu Yao put her down gently, even if she fell asleep, she couldn't sleep well, sometimes frightened, sometimes shed tears.

Shu Yao called Chun Tao, asked her to move a low couch and put it next to Shu Ya, and lay down on it with her clothes on, taking a look at Shu Ya from time to time.Such a night passed quickly, and he fell asleep in a daze at Maoshi, but was awakened by the sound outside soon.

Shu Yao woke up from the couch, looked up at Shu Ya, and saw that she was already awake, looking at the ceiling with her eyes open.It was still dark outside, and there were low and messy voices coming in, it should be preparing for a funeral.

Shu Yao got up and turned on the light, and Mama Xu, Mama Liu and others who were waiting outside the door walked in gently, and were busy dressing the two sisters.

Compared to last night when she first met, Shu Ya's complexion turned out to be a bit better, but she was still a little timid and wobbly.After getting dressed, Shu Ya offered to eat something, everyone was a little delighted.

After only two bites, Chuntao lifted the curtain and said:

"The old lady is coming this way!"

Just after finishing speaking, there was a slight sound of footsteps. Mama Liang appeared first through the curtain, followed by a group of people. The leader was a woman in her 40s, with a round bun and a pair of black hair on her black hair. A hairpin of white jade, with a plain silver comb inserted.He is neither fat nor thin, neither tall nor short, and upon closer inspection he is amiable and gentle, but there are shadows under his eyes, showing fatigue and sadness.Wearing a light blue, almost white shirt, the whole body looks extremely elegant.
