Chapter 325 Extra Story 2017 Feelings Heating Up
Chapter 325 Extra Episode 017 [-] Feelings Heating Up
After dinner, Jiang Weiyu said that she was going back to her room, and the little gourds hadn't been hung up yet. If the wind blows away at night, it would be a waste of time to blind her. She never thought that Lu Xiuyuan would have given those strings of eye-catching gourds to her. How could she succeed in holding grudges, and keep her as an excuse to paint.
Jiang Weiyu was anxious, but facing someone's tense face, she held back the words that came to her lips, and dared not say a word.
You don't need to look at it to know that Lu Xiuyuan painted the woman he had painted before again, Jiang Weiyu is very depressed, this must be such a paranoid feeling, she is married and still clings to her like this.
Really can't stand it, Jiang Weiyu said: "The woman in the painting..."
"What?" Lu Xiuyuan looked at her.
Jiang Weiyu bit the bullet and asked, "Is she still alive?"
Otherwise, if these two people really love each other, with Lu Xiuyuan's brains, they can find a way to meet her anyway, so why bother to be unrequited love here.
"Not anymore." Lu Xiuyuan simply replied with three words, which made Jiang Weiyu stunned for a moment.
It turned out that he was gone, Jiang Weiyu suddenly sympathized with Lu Xiuyuan.
The separation of yin and yang is to the living people, that is "yellow flowers and white wine are like mountains of paper, life is like a dream and death is like drunk", that kind of powerlessness that can't be seen, can't be grasped and can't be grasped can completely consume a person's energy and spirit. Light.
"Then...then you are sorry." I can only comfort him in this way. After all, sympathy is sympathy. She doesn't know the woman in the painting, so she doesn't know how to say extra words, and it's such a thing as persuasion. Jiang Weiyu still Really bad.
Lu Xiuyuan asked her to sit down next to him, and patted her on the head lightly, "Good boy, don't ask any more questions in the future."
Jiang Weiyu could understand the pain of the living when the deceased was mentioned, but why did he remind her of the little white dog he raised in the Waizhuang when he patted her like this?She often pats it on the head like this...
After receiving Lu Xiuyuan's "kind advice", Jiang Weiyu really shut up obediently, no matter how much he paints, she will not bother him any more, just silently researching ink and coloring for him.
About coloring, it was Lu Xiuyuan who taught her. Which kinds of pigments will make the color more beautiful than the original color. Jiang Weiyu has never even heard of it before. I didn't expect Lu Xiuyuan, a businessman, to know so many things. It can be seen that this person The reputation of "Curling Yuheng" outside is not in vain, and they have the foundation to support this temperament.
In fact, Lu Xiuyuan only knew simple color toning before. As for the deeper level, he learned it from Yun Chuwei. ", a lot of trivial things, which are the easiest to be ignored by people, but she was able to get through this big seam of a needle, and find another way, giving people a feeling of "Oh, so this method is so simple, I used to Why didn't I think of that" epiphany.
So, that was a strange woman, a strange woman that he missed without even grasping the opportunity.
The aromatherapy in Lu Xiuyuan's room has the effect of calming the mind, but for Jiang Weiyu, it is a hypnotic drug. The person who was studying ink seriously fell asleep unconsciously, and his head slowly leaned on his shoulder .
Lu Xiuyuan turned his head and saw that she seemed to be extremely sleepy, so he simply didn't wake her up, and directly hugged her to the bed.
Touched by the warmth of the warm jade under the cushion, Jiang Weiyu fell into a deeper sleep.
Lu Xiuyuan sat in front of the couch and stared at her, his expression was a little erratic, he didn't know what he was thinking.
When night fell, Nanny Geng knocked on the door and asked if Jiang Weiyu would go back. Lu Xiuyuan said no, so he just slept here and told her not to stay guard in Jiang Weiyu's room. What should she do? .
Naturally, Nanny Geng didn't dare to say more, she stepped back in a polite manner after answering.
Because of the proximity to the sea, the wind on the canal is getting stronger and stronger, making the string of gourds hanging outside Jiang Weiyu's window rattle. A string was blown into the canal.
When Lu Xiuyuan went to look, there was only the last string left, he frowned, took off the small gourd and put it in the box in his room.
The first thing Jiang Weiyu woke up the next day was to go back to her room to look at the gourds, but the mother told her that the wind was so strong last night that the gourds were all blown away, and she suddenly had a depressed face, "How could this happen? "
Looking outside, she has passed the canal and entered the shallow sea area. She doesn't even know when the gourd was blown away, so where can she find it?
Jiang Weiyu was full of annoyance, she shouldn't have overslept carelessly yesterday, but in the end, all the gourds were gone, it was a waste of her hard work, and she begged Lu Xiuyuan for a long time to get it.
When he returned to Lu Xiuyuan's room, breakfast had already been set, and he seemed to be waiting for her.
Seeing her sullen, he raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter?"
"All my gourds are gone." Jiang Weiyu frowned slightly, it was also her wish to blow away like this, thinking about it is not reconciled!
"It's gone, it's gone, what are you doing with a sad face?" Lu Xiuyuan patted the stool beside him, motioning her to sit down.
Jiang Weiyu sighed silently, walked over and sat down to eat.
Take a bite and look out the window, take a bite and look out the window again.
Lu Xiuyuan's eyebrows twitched, "Why, you still want to go down and pick it up?"
"If I can pick it up, I will definitely go down." The problem is that the speed of the boat is getting faster and faster. I don't know how many waterways it has traveled since last night. It would be hell if the gourd could follow it.
"What's so good about a gourd, it's so ugly." Lu Xiuyuan swallowed his food slowly, with a bit of disgust.
"But you bought it for me!" Jiang Weiyu blurted out, after thinking about it later, he felt that the words were wrong, and immediately changed his mouth, "I didn't mean that, I mean, it's something I worked so hard to get from you , It’s all gone before I have fully appreciated it, just thinking about it is very unpleasant.”
Lu Xiuyuan looked at her for a moment, "Do you like stringed things very much?"
Can she say she likes seashells?Ever since she saw the string of shells in Master Biao's yard in Lu's mansion, that clear and ethereal sound has been lingering in her head, and she just wanted to buy it and try it out for herself.
Seeing her distracted, Lu Xiuyuan probably thought of Ah Bai again. He shrunk his eyes and knocked on the table, "Eat as soon as you eat, what are you thinking about?"
Jiang Weiyu blushed a little, lowered his head and continued to eat.
After the meal, Lu Xiuyuan sent someone to deliver a three-inch square piece of paper, colorfully colored.
Jiang Weiyu was curious for a moment, "What are these for?"
"Have you heard of Thousand Paper Cranes?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
Jiang Weiyu shook his head, "I haven't heard of it." I haven't even seen it.
Lu Xiuyuan was thoughtful, and then he was relieved. The thousand origami cranes were a gadget made by Yun Chuwei. At first, they were hung in bunches by the window just because she liked them. The skill was passed on by the little maids around her, and it gradually became known to everyone. In today's capital, almost all women and children, old and young, can fold paper cranes. The crowd in the capital is mixed. It must be impossible that it has not spread to the south of the Yangtze River. The only explanation is Jiang Weiyu stayed in Waizhuang for too long, and when she came back, she encountered a terrible incident of "doves occupying the magpie's nest". She didn't live a few days as a serious young lady. At that time, she was hiding in Tibet all day long to avoid hunting and killing , I can't even find a place to sleep at night, so how can I care about something like a thousand paper cranes that can't fill my stomach.
Speaking of which, this girl has a very ill-fated life.
He skillfully folded one up and put it on the table.
Jiang Weiyu opened his eyes wide in surprise, carefully picked it up and held it in his palm, "Wow, so you can still do this?"
This man, what else does he not know?
"How is it?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
Jiang Weiyu thought for a while, "It looks good, but what can it do?"
"Don't you like things that are strung together? Stack a little more, and you can string them up yourself."
Jiang Weiyu's eyes lit up, "Hey, this is a good idea, then teach me quickly!"
"Really want to learn?" Lu Xiuyuan was hesitating whether to teach or not.
"Yeah." Jiang Weiyu nodded, "Teaching people how to fish is worse than giving them fish. It's boring for you to stack by yourself. Count me in!"
Lu Xiuyuan was silent for a moment, but in the end he still taught her how to fold thousand origami cranes.
Seeing her excited little face because she successfully folded the first thousand paper cranes, his eyes softened involuntarily, and he touched her head uncontrollably with one hand.
Jiang Weiyu frowned and patted his hand away, "I'm not a puppy, so don't touch my head like this in the future."
For his unconscious action, Lu Xiuyuan was surprised and even shocked. He seems to be a little bit wrong recently. It is understandable that he took the initiative to go to her to sleep with her because of insomnia the night before, but what happened just now?
"You're not a puppy, you're a child." Said this to her, also comforting herself.
According to the age difference between the two of them, if it were the son of the family who married earlier, her age would almost catch up with his daughter. In fact, even if it is not measured by "father and daughter", based on his age, she can be called Sound "Uncle".
So in his eyes, she is just a child.
So, the "love" of the elders to the children is not too much, right?
Thinking of this, he touched her head again.
Jiang Weiyu exploded, "Lu, Xiu, Yuan!"
Since we first met in the small town, it seems that this is the first time I saw her face so dark. He couldn't hold back, laughed lowly, and corrected, "My husband."
Jiang Weiyu snorted, ignored him, and continued to bury his head in stacking thousand paper cranes.
After stacking hundreds of gourds and hanging them in the room, she finally made up for the regret of losing her gourds, and she was as happy as blossoming.
And the days of sailing at sea passed day by day, and finally arrived at the destination-Penglai Island.
When Mammy Geng said it, Jiang Weiyu suddenly remembered why Lu Xiuyuan brought her here - did he really want to torture her and pick out her eyeballs?
So she stayed in her room all morning and dared not go out.
Lu Xiuyuan was very helpless, knocked and knocked on the door, but Jiang Weiyu refused to open it.
"If you don't come out again, I'll let someone kick the door."
Jiang Weiyu sat on the couch with his knees hugged, not going out, just going out, who made him perverted.
"Or, it's fine if you don't come out. I'll just lock the outside, just as you like."
Jiang Weiyu fully believed that he would do what he said, so he immediately stood up and opened the door. When he met the other person's eyes, he involuntarily took two steps back, "You, tell me first, why did you bring me here?"
Lu Xiuyuan pondered, "Didn't it be agreed not to ask?" There was a bit of displeasure in his tone, as if he really hated other people mentioning anything on the island.
"Then I have to find out if I'm going down to die, right?" Jiang Weiyu was aggrieved, she had no way to escape on the boat before, but now on the island, she also has nowhere to escape - who knew he would Wouldn't there be a legendary mechanism waiting for her on the island?
There is a mechanism, but it is to protect the jade statue in the center of the island. It is impossible to activate the defense mechanism unless the foreign enemy invades as a last resort.
Lu Xiuyuan supported her on the board wall with one hand, encircling her, with an indescribable sense of oppression in his breath, "Do you think I look like a murderer?"
Along the way, she misunderstood him for not a day or two. Lu Xiuyuan was thinking about the little girl's family, and said it in a moment of anger, and he would forget it later, but he did not expect to remember it until now. He is really small-minded.
Jiang Weiyu thought that just because he doesn't look like one, doesn't mean he can't kill people! "Then you were angry with my father before, I thought..."
"Thought that I would take revenge from you and kill you to vent my anger?" This little girl, why are there so many messy things in her mind?
"Isn't it?" Jiang Weiyu was a little confused, could it be that he had made a mistake all along?Also, he was so close, her heart almost jumped out.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't explain, and took her outside, standing on the deck, he could see the whole island in his eyes.
Then, Jiang Weiyu was stunned. What kind of purgatory is this? It's a fairyland on earth, isn't it?The mist is vast, the clouds are shrouded in mist, and there is a magnificent palace with carved beams and painted buildings in the center of the island, which looks like a temple.
Intuitively, there must be some great person enshrined there, but she couldn't figure it out, since it was an enshrinement, why didn't the spirit place be brought back to the capital for enshrining, and chose to build the temple in such a place?The island is nice, quiet and quiet, but it's too quiet, and it's quite far away. It's not easy for worshipers to come and offer incense, and it takes a month to go back and forth.
No wonder Lu Xiuyuan told her not to ask no matter what she saw.
This is indeed a very puzzling question.
But thinking of Lu Xiuyuan's warning, she still chose to shut up obediently.
Lu Xiuyuan said: "I'll ask my servant to take you to pick up shells in a while, so don't follow me to the temple. I'll come to you after I've settled the matter."
Jiang Weiyu asked in a low voice: "So we are staying on the boat at night?"
"Yes." Lu Xiuyuan nodded. Except for the temporary residence of the craftsmen, no extra dwellings were built on the island. This was to reduce damage to the island and to better protect the mother's soul.
Although the spiritual seat has not been invited back yet, Lu Xiuyuan has already put the entire island under his mother's name. No matter who finds this island in the future, they will not be able to enter it easily. Otherwise, so many organs buried in the ground are not a joke. Yes, if you accidentally step on it, you will be killed by a thousand arrows in the blink of an eye.
Out of everyone's curiosity, Jiang Weiyu really wanted to follow Lu Xiuyuan to see what was enshrined there, but in the end he watched him go alone, and she was taken by the maids and nuns. Go to the beach to pick up shells and conch.
When Lu Xiuyuan came to the temple, the group of dark men, craftsmen and master sculptors he had hired with a lot of money were already waiting outside the gate to greet him.
After briefly meeting everyone, Lu Xiuyuan walked in.
The main seat for enshrining is still empty, and there is nothing there, but the furnishings inside are all ready, and the overall look is solemn and solemn.
"Where is the jade statue?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
The master sculptor replied: "It's in the side hall."
Lu Xiuyuan said: "Move here!"
The hidden guards passed by quickly, and moved the entire jade statue over in a short while. Lu Xiuyuan reached out and took off the black cloth covering it, and the lifelike statue appeared in front of everyone.
The proportions of the statue were made according to Lu Qingwan's height and figure, without any difference. As for the jade used for the statue - the Ministry of Industry has a mining team. It is conceivable how difficult it is to obtain such a large piece of jade from the mountain materials picked from the high mountains, and the carving is even more difficult.
In ancient times, there were no electric tools, and jade carving is different from wood carving, which can be directly carved. Jade can neither be carved with a knife nor a chisel. The tool for carving jade is called a mound. The thallium on the machine drives the emery sand specially used for carving jade to grind it.
Therefore, carving jade is a delicate job, which cannot be done by impetuous people.
Before coming to the island, Lu Xiuyuan only learned a little bit, but compared to master carvers, it was not enough to see, so he still needs to learn how to carve first-class jade carvings.
Lu Qingwan's eyes, he has drawn countless times on the way here, has long been engraved in his heart, and he knows how to make it more realistic, but such an effect must have enough jade carving skills to support it, otherwise everything It's all useless.
Lu Xiuyuan stroked the jade carving with his slender fingers, then turned to look at the master engraver, "The mound machine is also in the side hall?"
The master sculptor answered yes.
Lu Xiuyuan said: "It's not too late, let's start learning now."
The sooner you help your mother close her eyes, the sooner someone can go to Beiyan to invite her mother's spirit back.
The master sculptor could tell that Lu Xiuyuan was a good seedling, as long as he studied hard, it would not be difficult to point out those eyes, so he didn't persuade him, and took Lu Xiuyuan to the side hall to practice jade carving.
And Jiang Weiyu, who was picking shells outside for a while, didn't see Lu Xiuyuan coming back, so he asked Mammy, "Do you know when your young master will come back?"
The mother said: "The young master told me that if the young mistress is hungry, she can eat first without waiting for him."
"Then can I go to him?" Jiang Weiyu asked again.
Mammy's expression changed, she quickly shook her head, "It's absolutely impossible."
"The young master ordered it again?"
"……Yes."
Jiang Weiyu went back to the boat with shells in her pocket. There were a lot of paper cranes hanging in the room, and they swayed gently as soon as the window was opened. She hung blue, which complemented the color of the sea outside. artistic conception.
Sitting at the table with her chin resting on her chin, Jiang Weiyu stared at the swaying strings of thousand paper cranes in a daze. Thinking of the scene where Lu Xiuyuan taught her how to fold thousand paper cranes, she suddenly became interested again, got up and went to Lu Xiuyuan's room opposite, planning to Bringing some origami, I accidentally saw a small, inconspicuous box on his bedside table.
Jiang Weiyu glanced at the door and opened it gently, and saw a string of colorful gourds inside.
gourd?
Jiang Weiyu frowned, why did Lu Xiuyuan have a string here?Could it be that the gourd was not blown by the wind that night, but he deliberately hid it?
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Weiyu held his breath, put the little gourd back calmly, and only pretended to mention it unintentionally when Lu Xiuyuan came back, "The color of these shells is too monotonous. If there are colored gourds lining It looks even better when you put it on, don't you think?"
Lu Xiuyuan looked at her inexplicably, "I said I wanted shells, but I bought a gourd. Now that I have shells, you start to miss gourds again. So do you want shells or gourds?"
"I...I want both." Jiang Weiyu said: "It's just a pity, my gourd was blown by the wind."
After finishing speaking, she carefully observed Lu Xiuyuan's expression, seeing that the other party was indifferent, she decided to give some hints to see if he would recruit, "By the way, husband, you slept late that night, did you see the gourd that was blown out? "
"No." Lu Xiuyuan said indifferently: "Our rooms are facing each other. The gourd is hanging on your side, and it is facing the window. How could I see it when I was blown away?"
"Then do you like little gourd?" She blinked at him.
Lu Xiuyuan pursed his lips, "I don't like it."
"You still buy it if you don't like it?"
"Isn't that for you?"
"Besides buying it for me, how dare you say that you didn't secretly buy a string and hide it?" Jiang Weiyu looked contemptuous, and just pointed out that he stole her things and refused to admit it, so shameless.
When Lu Xiuyuan heard it, he immediately realized that she had already found the bunch of gourds he put in the box, and now she set up a trick for him to force him to admit it!
"Maybe the hidden guards picked it up for you, but I didn't pay much attention to it, so I forgot."
Jiang Weiyu: "..." I am afraid that only you, Young Master Lu, can make up such a lame reason.
After eating, Lu Xiuyuan wanted to leave again, Jiang Weiyu hurriedly said, "Do you still have something to do?"
"Ah."
Jiang Weiyu wondered if it was just incense sticks, how could he come up with so many things, "Can you take me?"
"Yes." Lu Xiuyuan said straightforwardly, "As long as you don't ask random questions, I'll take you in and have a look."
"I must be very good." Jiang Weiyu was not interested in asking about his affairs, mainly because he had nothing to do on the boat, it was too boring, and he just wanted to find something to do to pass the time.
Sure enough, Lu Xiuyuan took her to the temple in the center of the island, and when he went in, he saw that the servants were cleaning up a jade statue, but the altar where the spiritual tablet or statue should have been placed was empty and there was nothing there.
So Jiang Weiyu's eyes naturally fell on the jade statue.
Looking at it this way, it's incredible.
Isn't this sculpture the same woman that Lu Xiuyuan drew on the boat?
No wonder he was not allowed to ask, it turned out that this was the one who enshrined.
That's right, his mind was not right at first, so he dared to go to the capital to enshrine her openly, so he could only build a temple and statue for her here.
Jiang Weiyu really wanted to know what kind of a magnificent woman this was, it was fine that Lu Xiuyuan cared about her in every possible way during her lifetime, but she could still be treated like this after her death.
Jiang Weiyu felt that if there was a man who treated her like this in this life, then she would have no regrets even if she died.
It's just a pity, I married a man with a heart at a young age, I can't count on this life, I can only look forward to the next life.
Seeing her staring at the jade carving in a daze, Lu Xiuyuan asked, "Is it pretty?"
"It's pretty." Jiang Weiyu nodded, "It's just...it's weird that there are no eyes."
The jade carving is very realistic. If she didn't know that it was a dead object, Jiang Weiyu would have thought it was made by wrapping a living person inside, because it was so similar that even without eyes, she could still see it in the first place. Time recognizes that this is the one Lu Xiuyuan drew on the boat.
"The eyes will be kept till the end." Lu Xiuyuan said, "I'll come in person."
Jiang Weiyu suddenly realized, "When I was painting with you, I deliberately put the eyes as the focus, so I was practicing?"
"Ah."
A slight nod proved once again the unshakable position of this woman in his heart, Jiang Weiyu rubbed his nose, really?Husband, is it appropriate for you to admit how important other women are to you in front of your new wife?
"What's wrong?" Lu Xiuyuan felt that something was wrong with her.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Jiang Weiyu was very unwilling to admit that she was actually a little sour.
"The servants just picked wild fruits on the island. They are very fresh. Would you like to try them?"
"Is it sour?" Jiang Weiyu asked.
"They are all ripe fruits, sweet ones, why, do you want sour ones?"
"Yeah!" Come a few sour words to soothe the depressed mood.
Lu Xiuyuan pinched his fingers and counted the days, "Isn't that right? We've only been married for more than half a month."
Jiang Weiyu didn't understand at first, but when he understood, he blushed uncontrollably and stared at him, "What nonsense, who told you that you have to be pregnant to want to eat sour?"
Besides, in front of the jade carving whom he regards as his own life, he can still calmly talk about having children with her. Is this heartless or too big?
Seeing her angry face, he curled his lips, "Go, let someone take you to taste it, I'll be here in a while."
"Okay." Jiang Weiyu turned around, and followed the servants to the shed outside to enjoy the shade.
That's right, it's enjoying the cool.
No matter whether it is the capital city or the south of the Yangtze River, it is already cold to the bone, but it is unbearably hot here. As soon as the morning mist clears, the sun will be so hot that it can hurt the skin at noon. She didn't dare to come out because of the sunscreen effect.
When Jiang Weiyu passed by, the little maids had already prepared a seat for her, and the wild fruits they picked were washed and placed in a white porcelain plate, red and green, plump and ripe, with a very attractive fragrance.
After sitting down, Jiang Weiyu picked up one and tasted it. It was watery and sweet, and it quenched thirst. It was a fruit she had never eaten before, so she couldn't help but eat two more.
Not long after, Lu Xiuyuan also came over, sat next to her, ate a fruit and said: "To successfully close those eyes, I still need some time to practice, maybe I have to stay on the island for another ten days and half a month .”
Jiang Weiyu said: "The ingredients on the boat are running out, we can't last that long."
"You don't need to worry about this." Lu Xiuyuan picked out a ripe red fruit and handed it to her, "Every once in a while, there will be someone from the harbor to deliver ingredients to the island, it's sure enough."
Jiang Weiyu nodded, "Okay then, you are in charge, you are right in everything you say."
Lu Xiuyuan laughed lowly.
"What are you laughing at?" She took a bite of the red fruit he handed over, it was so sweet!
Lu Xiuyuan said: "I was thinking, where did I go when I met that proud Jiang Weiyu?"
She choked, this... She did what she should do, and what she shouldn't do, and she wanted her to fight him like when they first met?Is this for her own good or digging her grave?But, "If you like it, you can!"
Anyway, she is not such a rigid person, she married him because she wanted something from him, as long as he is happy, don't do anything that endangers her life, let her do whatever she wants.
Isn't it just pretending to be cold, what's so difficult about it.
"I don't like it." He refused.
"Then you like me now?"
Lu Xiuyuan squinted at her, "What do you think?"
Jiang Weiyu touched his nose again, just kidding, who doesn't know that you are obsessed with a certain woman and you are almost crazy.
"It's over." Jiang Weiyu looked at the empty plate on the table, "I'm going back to fiddle with my shells, so go slowly and get your eyes out!" It just so happened that she didn't want to see it, too bad!
Lu Xiuyuan watched her go away, and then went to the side hall to continue studying jade carving techniques.
It didn't take long before the little maid who sent Jiang Weiyu back just now hurried over and said, "Young master is not well, young mistress hurt her hand by the crab's pincers."
Lu Xiuyuan immediately dropped the work in hand, "Where is it, show me quickly!"
"It has been sent back to the boat." The little maid said.
Lu Xiuyuan scolded: "Then why don't you leave quickly, what are you doing?"
The little maid trembled in fright, how long has it been since she saw the young master get angry?
In a daze, Lu Xiuyuan had already rushed towards the side of the boat.
Jiang Weiyu's hands have been seen by Yinwei who knows medical skills and wrapped in medicine, like zongzi. Seeing Lu Xiuyuan running up sweating profusely, she was surprised, "Aren't you working? What are you doing now?"
Lu Xiuyuan didn't speak, his eyes fell on her tightly wrapped paws, and his voice was a little heavy, "How did you do it?"
"Just, I saw a big crab on the beach, and I wanted to catch it back, but I accidentally got pinched by it."
"Has anyone seen it?"
"Ah."
"How's the injury?"
"It's all right! Little wound, if you don't believe me look at it." She said, raised her paw to move around, and accidentally touched the wound, gritted her teeth in pain, and gasped continuously.
"You still said it's okay, so careless." Lu Xiuyuan came over and gently removed the layer of white cloth. Seeing that the wound was not shallow, he frowned, "When you were caught, did you still Pulled hard?"
"...Hmm." Although she really didn't want to admit it, she did it. The damn crab clamped even harder and bled directly, which hurt her to death.
"Do you think crabs are just like me, and can tolerate your disobedience?" Lu Xiuyuan said while gently re-bandaging her, and then said, "If you encounter this kind of thing in the future, don't make trouble with the crab, take it away. Get up and put it in the water, and it will loosen its pincers naturally."
"How would I know!" Jiang Weiyu curled his lips, isn't this the first time he was caught?
But then again, "Did you come back because I got hurt?" That's unlikely, isn't it?
Lu Xiuyuan was in her heart, it wasn't the usual dark one, who wanted to finish her off at night, and could put on clothes the next morning and not recognize anyone.
If he said that he could let go of such an important person and came to see her, she wouldn't believe it even if he was killed.
"No." He said lightly, "I came back to get some things, and happened to hear the servants say that you were injured, so I came in to have a look."
Listen, she just said, how could she be so kind? "Oh, I'm fine then."
"Since you're hurt, stay in your room and don't go anywhere." Before leaving, he instructed again.
After tossing and tossing for a long time, Jiang Weiyu was also tired, and said casually: "Don't worry, I won't let you get into trouble and hinder you." She didn't lose the two things of principle!Can you still suffer a second loss from the same crab?
In the next few days, because of his injury, Lu Xiuyuan didn't dare to touch her, and he didn't force her to sleep in his room. After all, in such a hot place, Jiang Weiyu didn't have to shiver from the cold anymore, and he could even open the window at night. sleep.
As the days passed, Lu Xiuyuan's jade carving skills improved day by day, and he finally dared to directly work on the jade statue.
Then on this day, after holding a small sacrificial ceremony, he began to do the eye-dotting, almost in one go.
Jiang Weiyu was also beside her. If she hadn't seen him carving with her own eyes, she would have thought that human eyeballs were embedded in it. As soon as the eyes came out, the whole jade statue would "come to life". Everyone who saw it praised it. Even the master sculptor gave Lu Xiuyuan a thumbs up, saying that as long as this young master does something seriously, he will definitely become a leader in that field.
Lu Xiuyuan smiled lightly, noncommittal, obviously acquiescing to the master sculptor's words.
In fact, this is not an exaggeration at all. There are so many industries under the name of the Lu Chamber of Commerce. If Lu Xiuyuan wants to make it bigger, he must understand the nature of each industry that is sunk below the surface and the most easily overlooked aspects. Details, only by grasping these, can we make breakthroughs and bring forth new ones.
It can be seen that there are so many industries, and he has a good understanding of each of them, even down to the ingredients and production process in the bottom workshop.
A person like Lu Xiuyuan has long cultivated a pair of "sharp eyes". He can quickly grasp several major elements of anything that comes before his eyes, so let him do something he has never done before - carving jade. If you have the heart, then it will not be difficult to learn the essence.
The vivid eyes on the jade statue are enough to prove everything.
After finishing the eyes, the next thing to do is to hand over to the craftsmen and hidden guards.
Because it is too heavy and precious, the movement must be light and slow, so it took a long time to get the jade statue right.
After cleaning the main hall, Lu Xiuyuan asked someone to bring the incense burner, and was the first to put incense into the jade statue.
The craftsmen and master sculptors are not from the Lu family, so naturally they would not interfere, and the remaining maids and women all lined up to offer incense. Most of them didn't know who the jade statue was, and they just followed the young master's orders. , while a few old people of the Lu family can tell at a glance that this is the eldest lady Lu Qingwan who was kicked out of the house by the Lu family back then.
The women who knew about it just sighed with emotion, and no one dared to say who it was, let alone talk about how Lu Qingwan was kicked out of the house.
Jiang Weiyu carefully saw the complex emotions on the faces of these women, her eyes flickered slightly, how did she feel that those women knew the real jade statue?
After finishing his eyes and worshiping, Lu Xiuyuan finally mentioned the matter of the return journey.
Jiang Weiyu was quite reluctant, such a beautiful place is really rare, if we leave today, we don't know if we will have the chance to visit in the future.
Lu Xiuyuan saw through her little thoughts, "I come here at least twice a year, if you like, you can come with me."
"Yeah, okay." Jiang Weiyu nodded obediently.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't expect her to be so talkative, so he couldn't help but look at her twice.
"What?" Jiang Weiyu became vigilant.
Lu Xiuyuan said: "Is your hand healed?"
"...It still hurts."
"It's been half a month and it still hurts?" Lu Xiuyuan frowned, and insisted on taking it apart to see it himself after returning to the room, but Jiang Weiyu refused, and retracted his hands, "It hurts, so don't make it worse for me."
"Still pretending? Haven't you been trained enough?" Lu Xiuyuan stared at her, making her tremble uncontrollably as soon as those eyes fell on her.
Lu Xiuyuan took her hand and took off the white cloth on it to see that the wound had healed long ago without leaving any scars.
Jiang Weiyu was so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into the ground.
Lu Xiuyuan picked her up and put her on the bed to sit down, "It's time to go home, what are you still afraid of?"
It's not that I'm afraid of anything, I just feel that he came here for someone, made it so grand, and then shared the bed with her in various caresses, and felt awkward.
Lu Xiuyuan reached out and raised her chin, "Do you know who is enshrined on the island?"
Jiang Weiyu shook her head, "I don't know." Even if she guessed something, she couldn't be so stupid as to say it directly, isn't this courting death?
"It's my mother."
Just after Lu Xiuyuan finished speaking, Jiang Weiyu felt that he was struck by a bolt of lightning, mother... mother?
Why the mother and not that...
Lu Xiuyuan didn't know why he told her such an important matter impulsively, but subconsciously felt that she would not get to the bottom of it.
Jiang Weiyu did not ask, she has not recovered from being struck by lightning - so, the "someone" she always thought was not "someone" at all, but his biological mother? ——It’s a good thing I didn’t say this ridiculous guess, otherwise I would be embarrassing right now.
When he returned to the capital, it was already snowing all over the city, and everywhere was filled with the festive atmosphere of the approaching New Year. Yi Bai rode his horse to pick up Lu Xiuyuan and his wife by the city gate.
Jiang Weiyu opened the curtain, and once again saw this man from Qingyuan Gaohua who looked like a banished fairy, he was stunned for a moment.
Lu Xiuyuan put down the curtain for her with a snap, and told the driver with a dark face, "Let's go!"
(End of this chapter)
After dinner, Jiang Weiyu said that she was going back to her room, and the little gourds hadn't been hung up yet. If the wind blows away at night, it would be a waste of time to blind her. She never thought that Lu Xiuyuan would have given those strings of eye-catching gourds to her. How could she succeed in holding grudges, and keep her as an excuse to paint.
Jiang Weiyu was anxious, but facing someone's tense face, she held back the words that came to her lips, and dared not say a word.
You don't need to look at it to know that Lu Xiuyuan painted the woman he had painted before again, Jiang Weiyu is very depressed, this must be such a paranoid feeling, she is married and still clings to her like this.
Really can't stand it, Jiang Weiyu said: "The woman in the painting..."
"What?" Lu Xiuyuan looked at her.
Jiang Weiyu bit the bullet and asked, "Is she still alive?"
Otherwise, if these two people really love each other, with Lu Xiuyuan's brains, they can find a way to meet her anyway, so why bother to be unrequited love here.
"Not anymore." Lu Xiuyuan simply replied with three words, which made Jiang Weiyu stunned for a moment.
It turned out that he was gone, Jiang Weiyu suddenly sympathized with Lu Xiuyuan.
The separation of yin and yang is to the living people, that is "yellow flowers and white wine are like mountains of paper, life is like a dream and death is like drunk", that kind of powerlessness that can't be seen, can't be grasped and can't be grasped can completely consume a person's energy and spirit. Light.
"Then...then you are sorry." I can only comfort him in this way. After all, sympathy is sympathy. She doesn't know the woman in the painting, so she doesn't know how to say extra words, and it's such a thing as persuasion. Jiang Weiyu still Really bad.
Lu Xiuyuan asked her to sit down next to him, and patted her on the head lightly, "Good boy, don't ask any more questions in the future."
Jiang Weiyu could understand the pain of the living when the deceased was mentioned, but why did he remind her of the little white dog he raised in the Waizhuang when he patted her like this?She often pats it on the head like this...
After receiving Lu Xiuyuan's "kind advice", Jiang Weiyu really shut up obediently, no matter how much he paints, she will not bother him any more, just silently researching ink and coloring for him.
About coloring, it was Lu Xiuyuan who taught her. Which kinds of pigments will make the color more beautiful than the original color. Jiang Weiyu has never even heard of it before. I didn't expect Lu Xiuyuan, a businessman, to know so many things. It can be seen that this person The reputation of "Curling Yuheng" outside is not in vain, and they have the foundation to support this temperament.
In fact, Lu Xiuyuan only knew simple color toning before. As for the deeper level, he learned it from Yun Chuwei. ", a lot of trivial things, which are the easiest to be ignored by people, but she was able to get through this big seam of a needle, and find another way, giving people a feeling of "Oh, so this method is so simple, I used to Why didn't I think of that" epiphany.
So, that was a strange woman, a strange woman that he missed without even grasping the opportunity.
The aromatherapy in Lu Xiuyuan's room has the effect of calming the mind, but for Jiang Weiyu, it is a hypnotic drug. The person who was studying ink seriously fell asleep unconsciously, and his head slowly leaned on his shoulder .
Lu Xiuyuan turned his head and saw that she seemed to be extremely sleepy, so he simply didn't wake her up, and directly hugged her to the bed.
Touched by the warmth of the warm jade under the cushion, Jiang Weiyu fell into a deeper sleep.
Lu Xiuyuan sat in front of the couch and stared at her, his expression was a little erratic, he didn't know what he was thinking.
When night fell, Nanny Geng knocked on the door and asked if Jiang Weiyu would go back. Lu Xiuyuan said no, so he just slept here and told her not to stay guard in Jiang Weiyu's room. What should she do? .
Naturally, Nanny Geng didn't dare to say more, she stepped back in a polite manner after answering.
Because of the proximity to the sea, the wind on the canal is getting stronger and stronger, making the string of gourds hanging outside Jiang Weiyu's window rattle. A string was blown into the canal.
When Lu Xiuyuan went to look, there was only the last string left, he frowned, took off the small gourd and put it in the box in his room.
The first thing Jiang Weiyu woke up the next day was to go back to her room to look at the gourds, but the mother told her that the wind was so strong last night that the gourds were all blown away, and she suddenly had a depressed face, "How could this happen? "
Looking outside, she has passed the canal and entered the shallow sea area. She doesn't even know when the gourd was blown away, so where can she find it?
Jiang Weiyu was full of annoyance, she shouldn't have overslept carelessly yesterday, but in the end, all the gourds were gone, it was a waste of her hard work, and she begged Lu Xiuyuan for a long time to get it.
When he returned to Lu Xiuyuan's room, breakfast had already been set, and he seemed to be waiting for her.
Seeing her sullen, he raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter?"
"All my gourds are gone." Jiang Weiyu frowned slightly, it was also her wish to blow away like this, thinking about it is not reconciled!
"It's gone, it's gone, what are you doing with a sad face?" Lu Xiuyuan patted the stool beside him, motioning her to sit down.
Jiang Weiyu sighed silently, walked over and sat down to eat.
Take a bite and look out the window, take a bite and look out the window again.
Lu Xiuyuan's eyebrows twitched, "Why, you still want to go down and pick it up?"
"If I can pick it up, I will definitely go down." The problem is that the speed of the boat is getting faster and faster. I don't know how many waterways it has traveled since last night. It would be hell if the gourd could follow it.
"What's so good about a gourd, it's so ugly." Lu Xiuyuan swallowed his food slowly, with a bit of disgust.
"But you bought it for me!" Jiang Weiyu blurted out, after thinking about it later, he felt that the words were wrong, and immediately changed his mouth, "I didn't mean that, I mean, it's something I worked so hard to get from you , It’s all gone before I have fully appreciated it, just thinking about it is very unpleasant.”
Lu Xiuyuan looked at her for a moment, "Do you like stringed things very much?"
Can she say she likes seashells?Ever since she saw the string of shells in Master Biao's yard in Lu's mansion, that clear and ethereal sound has been lingering in her head, and she just wanted to buy it and try it out for herself.
Seeing her distracted, Lu Xiuyuan probably thought of Ah Bai again. He shrunk his eyes and knocked on the table, "Eat as soon as you eat, what are you thinking about?"
Jiang Weiyu blushed a little, lowered his head and continued to eat.
After the meal, Lu Xiuyuan sent someone to deliver a three-inch square piece of paper, colorfully colored.
Jiang Weiyu was curious for a moment, "What are these for?"
"Have you heard of Thousand Paper Cranes?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
Jiang Weiyu shook his head, "I haven't heard of it." I haven't even seen it.
Lu Xiuyuan was thoughtful, and then he was relieved. The thousand origami cranes were a gadget made by Yun Chuwei. At first, they were hung in bunches by the window just because she liked them. The skill was passed on by the little maids around her, and it gradually became known to everyone. In today's capital, almost all women and children, old and young, can fold paper cranes. The crowd in the capital is mixed. It must be impossible that it has not spread to the south of the Yangtze River. The only explanation is Jiang Weiyu stayed in Waizhuang for too long, and when she came back, she encountered a terrible incident of "doves occupying the magpie's nest". She didn't live a few days as a serious young lady. At that time, she was hiding in Tibet all day long to avoid hunting and killing , I can't even find a place to sleep at night, so how can I care about something like a thousand paper cranes that can't fill my stomach.
Speaking of which, this girl has a very ill-fated life.
He skillfully folded one up and put it on the table.
Jiang Weiyu opened his eyes wide in surprise, carefully picked it up and held it in his palm, "Wow, so you can still do this?"
This man, what else does he not know?
"How is it?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
Jiang Weiyu thought for a while, "It looks good, but what can it do?"
"Don't you like things that are strung together? Stack a little more, and you can string them up yourself."
Jiang Weiyu's eyes lit up, "Hey, this is a good idea, then teach me quickly!"
"Really want to learn?" Lu Xiuyuan was hesitating whether to teach or not.
"Yeah." Jiang Weiyu nodded, "Teaching people how to fish is worse than giving them fish. It's boring for you to stack by yourself. Count me in!"
Lu Xiuyuan was silent for a moment, but in the end he still taught her how to fold thousand origami cranes.
Seeing her excited little face because she successfully folded the first thousand paper cranes, his eyes softened involuntarily, and he touched her head uncontrollably with one hand.
Jiang Weiyu frowned and patted his hand away, "I'm not a puppy, so don't touch my head like this in the future."
For his unconscious action, Lu Xiuyuan was surprised and even shocked. He seems to be a little bit wrong recently. It is understandable that he took the initiative to go to her to sleep with her because of insomnia the night before, but what happened just now?
"You're not a puppy, you're a child." Said this to her, also comforting herself.
According to the age difference between the two of them, if it were the son of the family who married earlier, her age would almost catch up with his daughter. In fact, even if it is not measured by "father and daughter", based on his age, she can be called Sound "Uncle".
So in his eyes, she is just a child.
So, the "love" of the elders to the children is not too much, right?
Thinking of this, he touched her head again.
Jiang Weiyu exploded, "Lu, Xiu, Yuan!"
Since we first met in the small town, it seems that this is the first time I saw her face so dark. He couldn't hold back, laughed lowly, and corrected, "My husband."
Jiang Weiyu snorted, ignored him, and continued to bury his head in stacking thousand paper cranes.
After stacking hundreds of gourds and hanging them in the room, she finally made up for the regret of losing her gourds, and she was as happy as blossoming.
And the days of sailing at sea passed day by day, and finally arrived at the destination-Penglai Island.
When Mammy Geng said it, Jiang Weiyu suddenly remembered why Lu Xiuyuan brought her here - did he really want to torture her and pick out her eyeballs?
So she stayed in her room all morning and dared not go out.
Lu Xiuyuan was very helpless, knocked and knocked on the door, but Jiang Weiyu refused to open it.
"If you don't come out again, I'll let someone kick the door."
Jiang Weiyu sat on the couch with his knees hugged, not going out, just going out, who made him perverted.
"Or, it's fine if you don't come out. I'll just lock the outside, just as you like."
Jiang Weiyu fully believed that he would do what he said, so he immediately stood up and opened the door. When he met the other person's eyes, he involuntarily took two steps back, "You, tell me first, why did you bring me here?"
Lu Xiuyuan pondered, "Didn't it be agreed not to ask?" There was a bit of displeasure in his tone, as if he really hated other people mentioning anything on the island.
"Then I have to find out if I'm going down to die, right?" Jiang Weiyu was aggrieved, she had no way to escape on the boat before, but now on the island, she also has nowhere to escape - who knew he would Wouldn't there be a legendary mechanism waiting for her on the island?
There is a mechanism, but it is to protect the jade statue in the center of the island. It is impossible to activate the defense mechanism unless the foreign enemy invades as a last resort.
Lu Xiuyuan supported her on the board wall with one hand, encircling her, with an indescribable sense of oppression in his breath, "Do you think I look like a murderer?"
Along the way, she misunderstood him for not a day or two. Lu Xiuyuan was thinking about the little girl's family, and said it in a moment of anger, and he would forget it later, but he did not expect to remember it until now. He is really small-minded.
Jiang Weiyu thought that just because he doesn't look like one, doesn't mean he can't kill people! "Then you were angry with my father before, I thought..."
"Thought that I would take revenge from you and kill you to vent my anger?" This little girl, why are there so many messy things in her mind?
"Isn't it?" Jiang Weiyu was a little confused, could it be that he had made a mistake all along?Also, he was so close, her heart almost jumped out.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't explain, and took her outside, standing on the deck, he could see the whole island in his eyes.
Then, Jiang Weiyu was stunned. What kind of purgatory is this? It's a fairyland on earth, isn't it?The mist is vast, the clouds are shrouded in mist, and there is a magnificent palace with carved beams and painted buildings in the center of the island, which looks like a temple.
Intuitively, there must be some great person enshrined there, but she couldn't figure it out, since it was an enshrinement, why didn't the spirit place be brought back to the capital for enshrining, and chose to build the temple in such a place?The island is nice, quiet and quiet, but it's too quiet, and it's quite far away. It's not easy for worshipers to come and offer incense, and it takes a month to go back and forth.
No wonder Lu Xiuyuan told her not to ask no matter what she saw.
This is indeed a very puzzling question.
But thinking of Lu Xiuyuan's warning, she still chose to shut up obediently.
Lu Xiuyuan said: "I'll ask my servant to take you to pick up shells in a while, so don't follow me to the temple. I'll come to you after I've settled the matter."
Jiang Weiyu asked in a low voice: "So we are staying on the boat at night?"
"Yes." Lu Xiuyuan nodded. Except for the temporary residence of the craftsmen, no extra dwellings were built on the island. This was to reduce damage to the island and to better protect the mother's soul.
Although the spiritual seat has not been invited back yet, Lu Xiuyuan has already put the entire island under his mother's name. No matter who finds this island in the future, they will not be able to enter it easily. Otherwise, so many organs buried in the ground are not a joke. Yes, if you accidentally step on it, you will be killed by a thousand arrows in the blink of an eye.
Out of everyone's curiosity, Jiang Weiyu really wanted to follow Lu Xiuyuan to see what was enshrined there, but in the end he watched him go alone, and she was taken by the maids and nuns. Go to the beach to pick up shells and conch.
When Lu Xiuyuan came to the temple, the group of dark men, craftsmen and master sculptors he had hired with a lot of money were already waiting outside the gate to greet him.
After briefly meeting everyone, Lu Xiuyuan walked in.
The main seat for enshrining is still empty, and there is nothing there, but the furnishings inside are all ready, and the overall look is solemn and solemn.
"Where is the jade statue?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.
The master sculptor replied: "It's in the side hall."
Lu Xiuyuan said: "Move here!"
The hidden guards passed by quickly, and moved the entire jade statue over in a short while. Lu Xiuyuan reached out and took off the black cloth covering it, and the lifelike statue appeared in front of everyone.
The proportions of the statue were made according to Lu Qingwan's height and figure, without any difference. As for the jade used for the statue - the Ministry of Industry has a mining team. It is conceivable how difficult it is to obtain such a large piece of jade from the mountain materials picked from the high mountains, and the carving is even more difficult.
In ancient times, there were no electric tools, and jade carving is different from wood carving, which can be directly carved. Jade can neither be carved with a knife nor a chisel. The tool for carving jade is called a mound. The thallium on the machine drives the emery sand specially used for carving jade to grind it.
Therefore, carving jade is a delicate job, which cannot be done by impetuous people.
Before coming to the island, Lu Xiuyuan only learned a little bit, but compared to master carvers, it was not enough to see, so he still needs to learn how to carve first-class jade carvings.
Lu Qingwan's eyes, he has drawn countless times on the way here, has long been engraved in his heart, and he knows how to make it more realistic, but such an effect must have enough jade carving skills to support it, otherwise everything It's all useless.
Lu Xiuyuan stroked the jade carving with his slender fingers, then turned to look at the master engraver, "The mound machine is also in the side hall?"
The master sculptor answered yes.
Lu Xiuyuan said: "It's not too late, let's start learning now."
The sooner you help your mother close her eyes, the sooner someone can go to Beiyan to invite her mother's spirit back.
The master sculptor could tell that Lu Xiuyuan was a good seedling, as long as he studied hard, it would not be difficult to point out those eyes, so he didn't persuade him, and took Lu Xiuyuan to the side hall to practice jade carving.
And Jiang Weiyu, who was picking shells outside for a while, didn't see Lu Xiuyuan coming back, so he asked Mammy, "Do you know when your young master will come back?"
The mother said: "The young master told me that if the young mistress is hungry, she can eat first without waiting for him."
"Then can I go to him?" Jiang Weiyu asked again.
Mammy's expression changed, she quickly shook her head, "It's absolutely impossible."
"The young master ordered it again?"
"……Yes."
Jiang Weiyu went back to the boat with shells in her pocket. There were a lot of paper cranes hanging in the room, and they swayed gently as soon as the window was opened. She hung blue, which complemented the color of the sea outside. artistic conception.
Sitting at the table with her chin resting on her chin, Jiang Weiyu stared at the swaying strings of thousand paper cranes in a daze. Thinking of the scene where Lu Xiuyuan taught her how to fold thousand paper cranes, she suddenly became interested again, got up and went to Lu Xiuyuan's room opposite, planning to Bringing some origami, I accidentally saw a small, inconspicuous box on his bedside table.
Jiang Weiyu glanced at the door and opened it gently, and saw a string of colorful gourds inside.
gourd?
Jiang Weiyu frowned, why did Lu Xiuyuan have a string here?Could it be that the gourd was not blown by the wind that night, but he deliberately hid it?
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Weiyu held his breath, put the little gourd back calmly, and only pretended to mention it unintentionally when Lu Xiuyuan came back, "The color of these shells is too monotonous. If there are colored gourds lining It looks even better when you put it on, don't you think?"
Lu Xiuyuan looked at her inexplicably, "I said I wanted shells, but I bought a gourd. Now that I have shells, you start to miss gourds again. So do you want shells or gourds?"
"I...I want both." Jiang Weiyu said: "It's just a pity, my gourd was blown by the wind."
After finishing speaking, she carefully observed Lu Xiuyuan's expression, seeing that the other party was indifferent, she decided to give some hints to see if he would recruit, "By the way, husband, you slept late that night, did you see the gourd that was blown out? "
"No." Lu Xiuyuan said indifferently: "Our rooms are facing each other. The gourd is hanging on your side, and it is facing the window. How could I see it when I was blown away?"
"Then do you like little gourd?" She blinked at him.
Lu Xiuyuan pursed his lips, "I don't like it."
"You still buy it if you don't like it?"
"Isn't that for you?"
"Besides buying it for me, how dare you say that you didn't secretly buy a string and hide it?" Jiang Weiyu looked contemptuous, and just pointed out that he stole her things and refused to admit it, so shameless.
When Lu Xiuyuan heard it, he immediately realized that she had already found the bunch of gourds he put in the box, and now she set up a trick for him to force him to admit it!
"Maybe the hidden guards picked it up for you, but I didn't pay much attention to it, so I forgot."
Jiang Weiyu: "..." I am afraid that only you, Young Master Lu, can make up such a lame reason.
After eating, Lu Xiuyuan wanted to leave again, Jiang Weiyu hurriedly said, "Do you still have something to do?"
"Ah."
Jiang Weiyu wondered if it was just incense sticks, how could he come up with so many things, "Can you take me?"
"Yes." Lu Xiuyuan said straightforwardly, "As long as you don't ask random questions, I'll take you in and have a look."
"I must be very good." Jiang Weiyu was not interested in asking about his affairs, mainly because he had nothing to do on the boat, it was too boring, and he just wanted to find something to do to pass the time.
Sure enough, Lu Xiuyuan took her to the temple in the center of the island, and when he went in, he saw that the servants were cleaning up a jade statue, but the altar where the spiritual tablet or statue should have been placed was empty and there was nothing there.
So Jiang Weiyu's eyes naturally fell on the jade statue.
Looking at it this way, it's incredible.
Isn't this sculpture the same woman that Lu Xiuyuan drew on the boat?
No wonder he was not allowed to ask, it turned out that this was the one who enshrined.
That's right, his mind was not right at first, so he dared to go to the capital to enshrine her openly, so he could only build a temple and statue for her here.
Jiang Weiyu really wanted to know what kind of a magnificent woman this was, it was fine that Lu Xiuyuan cared about her in every possible way during her lifetime, but she could still be treated like this after her death.
Jiang Weiyu felt that if there was a man who treated her like this in this life, then she would have no regrets even if she died.
It's just a pity, I married a man with a heart at a young age, I can't count on this life, I can only look forward to the next life.
Seeing her staring at the jade carving in a daze, Lu Xiuyuan asked, "Is it pretty?"
"It's pretty." Jiang Weiyu nodded, "It's just...it's weird that there are no eyes."
The jade carving is very realistic. If she didn't know that it was a dead object, Jiang Weiyu would have thought it was made by wrapping a living person inside, because it was so similar that even without eyes, she could still see it in the first place. Time recognizes that this is the one Lu Xiuyuan drew on the boat.
"The eyes will be kept till the end." Lu Xiuyuan said, "I'll come in person."
Jiang Weiyu suddenly realized, "When I was painting with you, I deliberately put the eyes as the focus, so I was practicing?"
"Ah."
A slight nod proved once again the unshakable position of this woman in his heart, Jiang Weiyu rubbed his nose, really?Husband, is it appropriate for you to admit how important other women are to you in front of your new wife?
"What's wrong?" Lu Xiuyuan felt that something was wrong with her.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Jiang Weiyu was very unwilling to admit that she was actually a little sour.
"The servants just picked wild fruits on the island. They are very fresh. Would you like to try them?"
"Is it sour?" Jiang Weiyu asked.
"They are all ripe fruits, sweet ones, why, do you want sour ones?"
"Yeah!" Come a few sour words to soothe the depressed mood.
Lu Xiuyuan pinched his fingers and counted the days, "Isn't that right? We've only been married for more than half a month."
Jiang Weiyu didn't understand at first, but when he understood, he blushed uncontrollably and stared at him, "What nonsense, who told you that you have to be pregnant to want to eat sour?"
Besides, in front of the jade carving whom he regards as his own life, he can still calmly talk about having children with her. Is this heartless or too big?
Seeing her angry face, he curled his lips, "Go, let someone take you to taste it, I'll be here in a while."
"Okay." Jiang Weiyu turned around, and followed the servants to the shed outside to enjoy the shade.
That's right, it's enjoying the cool.
No matter whether it is the capital city or the south of the Yangtze River, it is already cold to the bone, but it is unbearably hot here. As soon as the morning mist clears, the sun will be so hot that it can hurt the skin at noon. She didn't dare to come out because of the sunscreen effect.
When Jiang Weiyu passed by, the little maids had already prepared a seat for her, and the wild fruits they picked were washed and placed in a white porcelain plate, red and green, plump and ripe, with a very attractive fragrance.
After sitting down, Jiang Weiyu picked up one and tasted it. It was watery and sweet, and it quenched thirst. It was a fruit she had never eaten before, so she couldn't help but eat two more.
Not long after, Lu Xiuyuan also came over, sat next to her, ate a fruit and said: "To successfully close those eyes, I still need some time to practice, maybe I have to stay on the island for another ten days and half a month .”
Jiang Weiyu said: "The ingredients on the boat are running out, we can't last that long."
"You don't need to worry about this." Lu Xiuyuan picked out a ripe red fruit and handed it to her, "Every once in a while, there will be someone from the harbor to deliver ingredients to the island, it's sure enough."
Jiang Weiyu nodded, "Okay then, you are in charge, you are right in everything you say."
Lu Xiuyuan laughed lowly.
"What are you laughing at?" She took a bite of the red fruit he handed over, it was so sweet!
Lu Xiuyuan said: "I was thinking, where did I go when I met that proud Jiang Weiyu?"
She choked, this... She did what she should do, and what she shouldn't do, and she wanted her to fight him like when they first met?Is this for her own good or digging her grave?But, "If you like it, you can!"
Anyway, she is not such a rigid person, she married him because she wanted something from him, as long as he is happy, don't do anything that endangers her life, let her do whatever she wants.
Isn't it just pretending to be cold, what's so difficult about it.
"I don't like it." He refused.
"Then you like me now?"
Lu Xiuyuan squinted at her, "What do you think?"
Jiang Weiyu touched his nose again, just kidding, who doesn't know that you are obsessed with a certain woman and you are almost crazy.
"It's over." Jiang Weiyu looked at the empty plate on the table, "I'm going back to fiddle with my shells, so go slowly and get your eyes out!" It just so happened that she didn't want to see it, too bad!
Lu Xiuyuan watched her go away, and then went to the side hall to continue studying jade carving techniques.
It didn't take long before the little maid who sent Jiang Weiyu back just now hurried over and said, "Young master is not well, young mistress hurt her hand by the crab's pincers."
Lu Xiuyuan immediately dropped the work in hand, "Where is it, show me quickly!"
"It has been sent back to the boat." The little maid said.
Lu Xiuyuan scolded: "Then why don't you leave quickly, what are you doing?"
The little maid trembled in fright, how long has it been since she saw the young master get angry?
In a daze, Lu Xiuyuan had already rushed towards the side of the boat.
Jiang Weiyu's hands have been seen by Yinwei who knows medical skills and wrapped in medicine, like zongzi. Seeing Lu Xiuyuan running up sweating profusely, she was surprised, "Aren't you working? What are you doing now?"
Lu Xiuyuan didn't speak, his eyes fell on her tightly wrapped paws, and his voice was a little heavy, "How did you do it?"
"Just, I saw a big crab on the beach, and I wanted to catch it back, but I accidentally got pinched by it."
"Has anyone seen it?"
"Ah."
"How's the injury?"
"It's all right! Little wound, if you don't believe me look at it." She said, raised her paw to move around, and accidentally touched the wound, gritted her teeth in pain, and gasped continuously.
"You still said it's okay, so careless." Lu Xiuyuan came over and gently removed the layer of white cloth. Seeing that the wound was not shallow, he frowned, "When you were caught, did you still Pulled hard?"
"...Hmm." Although she really didn't want to admit it, she did it. The damn crab clamped even harder and bled directly, which hurt her to death.
"Do you think crabs are just like me, and can tolerate your disobedience?" Lu Xiuyuan said while gently re-bandaging her, and then said, "If you encounter this kind of thing in the future, don't make trouble with the crab, take it away. Get up and put it in the water, and it will loosen its pincers naturally."
"How would I know!" Jiang Weiyu curled his lips, isn't this the first time he was caught?
But then again, "Did you come back because I got hurt?" That's unlikely, isn't it?
Lu Xiuyuan was in her heart, it wasn't the usual dark one, who wanted to finish her off at night, and could put on clothes the next morning and not recognize anyone.
If he said that he could let go of such an important person and came to see her, she wouldn't believe it even if he was killed.
"No." He said lightly, "I came back to get some things, and happened to hear the servants say that you were injured, so I came in to have a look."
Listen, she just said, how could she be so kind? "Oh, I'm fine then."
"Since you're hurt, stay in your room and don't go anywhere." Before leaving, he instructed again.
After tossing and tossing for a long time, Jiang Weiyu was also tired, and said casually: "Don't worry, I won't let you get into trouble and hinder you." She didn't lose the two things of principle!Can you still suffer a second loss from the same crab?
In the next few days, because of his injury, Lu Xiuyuan didn't dare to touch her, and he didn't force her to sleep in his room. After all, in such a hot place, Jiang Weiyu didn't have to shiver from the cold anymore, and he could even open the window at night. sleep.
As the days passed, Lu Xiuyuan's jade carving skills improved day by day, and he finally dared to directly work on the jade statue.
Then on this day, after holding a small sacrificial ceremony, he began to do the eye-dotting, almost in one go.
Jiang Weiyu was also beside her. If she hadn't seen him carving with her own eyes, she would have thought that human eyeballs were embedded in it. As soon as the eyes came out, the whole jade statue would "come to life". Everyone who saw it praised it. Even the master sculptor gave Lu Xiuyuan a thumbs up, saying that as long as this young master does something seriously, he will definitely become a leader in that field.
Lu Xiuyuan smiled lightly, noncommittal, obviously acquiescing to the master sculptor's words.
In fact, this is not an exaggeration at all. There are so many industries under the name of the Lu Chamber of Commerce. If Lu Xiuyuan wants to make it bigger, he must understand the nature of each industry that is sunk below the surface and the most easily overlooked aspects. Details, only by grasping these, can we make breakthroughs and bring forth new ones.
It can be seen that there are so many industries, and he has a good understanding of each of them, even down to the ingredients and production process in the bottom workshop.
A person like Lu Xiuyuan has long cultivated a pair of "sharp eyes". He can quickly grasp several major elements of anything that comes before his eyes, so let him do something he has never done before - carving jade. If you have the heart, then it will not be difficult to learn the essence.
The vivid eyes on the jade statue are enough to prove everything.
After finishing the eyes, the next thing to do is to hand over to the craftsmen and hidden guards.
Because it is too heavy and precious, the movement must be light and slow, so it took a long time to get the jade statue right.
After cleaning the main hall, Lu Xiuyuan asked someone to bring the incense burner, and was the first to put incense into the jade statue.
The craftsmen and master sculptors are not from the Lu family, so naturally they would not interfere, and the remaining maids and women all lined up to offer incense. Most of them didn't know who the jade statue was, and they just followed the young master's orders. , while a few old people of the Lu family can tell at a glance that this is the eldest lady Lu Qingwan who was kicked out of the house by the Lu family back then.
The women who knew about it just sighed with emotion, and no one dared to say who it was, let alone talk about how Lu Qingwan was kicked out of the house.
Jiang Weiyu carefully saw the complex emotions on the faces of these women, her eyes flickered slightly, how did she feel that those women knew the real jade statue?
After finishing his eyes and worshiping, Lu Xiuyuan finally mentioned the matter of the return journey.
Jiang Weiyu was quite reluctant, such a beautiful place is really rare, if we leave today, we don't know if we will have the chance to visit in the future.
Lu Xiuyuan saw through her little thoughts, "I come here at least twice a year, if you like, you can come with me."
"Yeah, okay." Jiang Weiyu nodded obediently.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't expect her to be so talkative, so he couldn't help but look at her twice.
"What?" Jiang Weiyu became vigilant.
Lu Xiuyuan said: "Is your hand healed?"
"...It still hurts."
"It's been half a month and it still hurts?" Lu Xiuyuan frowned, and insisted on taking it apart to see it himself after returning to the room, but Jiang Weiyu refused, and retracted his hands, "It hurts, so don't make it worse for me."
"Still pretending? Haven't you been trained enough?" Lu Xiuyuan stared at her, making her tremble uncontrollably as soon as those eyes fell on her.
Lu Xiuyuan took her hand and took off the white cloth on it to see that the wound had healed long ago without leaving any scars.
Jiang Weiyu was so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into the ground.
Lu Xiuyuan picked her up and put her on the bed to sit down, "It's time to go home, what are you still afraid of?"
It's not that I'm afraid of anything, I just feel that he came here for someone, made it so grand, and then shared the bed with her in various caresses, and felt awkward.
Lu Xiuyuan reached out and raised her chin, "Do you know who is enshrined on the island?"
Jiang Weiyu shook her head, "I don't know." Even if she guessed something, she couldn't be so stupid as to say it directly, isn't this courting death?
"It's my mother."
Just after Lu Xiuyuan finished speaking, Jiang Weiyu felt that he was struck by a bolt of lightning, mother... mother?
Why the mother and not that...
Lu Xiuyuan didn't know why he told her such an important matter impulsively, but subconsciously felt that she would not get to the bottom of it.
Jiang Weiyu did not ask, she has not recovered from being struck by lightning - so, the "someone" she always thought was not "someone" at all, but his biological mother? ——It’s a good thing I didn’t say this ridiculous guess, otherwise I would be embarrassing right now.
When he returned to the capital, it was already snowing all over the city, and everywhere was filled with the festive atmosphere of the approaching New Year. Yi Bai rode his horse to pick up Lu Xiuyuan and his wife by the city gate.
Jiang Weiyu opened the curtain, and once again saw this man from Qingyuan Gaohua who looked like a banished fairy, he was stunned for a moment.
Lu Xiuyuan put down the curtain for her with a snap, and told the driver with a dark face, "Let's go!"
