Abandoned Woman Remarried: Love Leng Nian General

Chapter 184 A Handful of Candied Haws
She bit her lip aggrievedly, her eyes were misty.

Seeing that Zhan Qingcheng was a little annoyed, Anji came out and said: "Go to the market and buy a bunch of candied haws for her."

An Ji stared at Zhan Qingcheng's figure dumbfounded, some things should always be taken into account in front of others, but look at him, just ignore Qing Ruyu so openly!
An Ji looked at Qing Ruyu's pale face again, as if she could fall to the ground in an instant, it really made my heart ache: "Second miss, don't you know that the young lady who is the head of our house has left home? There is a bunch of candied haws in Miss Zhi’s house, and I have been searching for it for many years without any results, so please bear with me.”

Qing Ruyu sighed, pinching the plain white handkerchief with melancholy on her face, the lightness of the beauty is enough to make these men heartbroken, An Ji said again: "It's cold outside, you'd better go back to the house Go inside, don't be cold, I will feel distressed later."

Qing Ruyu stared blankly at the heavy snow that fell on Chang'an: "Anji, you have followed Xichen since you were a child, tell me, did he really give his heart to others, and when he comes to me, he doesn't care about anything." There are no more. But those young promises, how did they become like this."

At that time, he happily went to propose marriage, and threatened to marry her when he returned from victory, but now, there seems to be a river between her and Zhan Qingcheng, and the one who separates her from Zhan Qingcheng is her No matter how it is in the middle of the water, Zhan Qingcheng will not come to her by wading through the water, and those past events have become more and more distant now, so far away that she seems to be the only one who still remembers them.

An Ji didn't know how to answer for a moment, she was so worried that her hair was about to fall out, and anxiously glanced behind Qing Ruyu, but there was only heavy snow behind her, and there was half of Zhan Qingcheng's figure.

"Second Miss, your big wedding will be in the next year. Don't frown on such a happy event." Qing Ruyu and An Ji are old acquaintances. Seeing the sky, Qing Ruyu followed Zhan Qingcheng around, and thought that this was a match made in heaven, but she never thought that fate is unpredictable, and with just one turn around, the two are already in harmony.

Qing Ruyu lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, her beautiful face like flowers and jade was a little shy: "I remember one year during the Lantern Festival, I went to enjoy the lanterns with Xichen, how did I know that I had to pay money when I went out, so I took it with me. The candied haws seller thought we were thieves and chased us for two blocks."

Her smile dimmed again, and she said softly, "Anji, please buy me a bunch of candied haws."

"Let's go now, you should go back to the house quickly, and I will send a few maids to take care of you later." It's not that Anji didn't assign maids to her, but she rejected them all.

"No need, I'm fine in the West Room, and Lan Xin treats me well." Qing Ruyu kept silent about the East Room, and An Ji secretly thought that she was a shrewd person after all.

"Second Miss, go back to the house, it's cold outside." An Ji invited Qing Ruyu back to the mansion, and then went to buy candied haws.

The taste of candied haws is sweet and sour, and it has a very unique taste when mixed together. Su Fengjin once had a candied haws, which was also given to her by Zhan Qingcheng, but now her mood is different after all.

Things that were once extravagantly hoped for, that extravagant hope has faded in the long days, and gradually I don't like it so much.

At this moment, Su Fengjin was sitting on the soft bed, directing those sitting in the hall to drive away the dumpling wrappers: "No, no, Xiao Fugui, do you still want to eat today, the wrappers are like pies by you Hou, do you want pancakes? Aunt Fang, hurry up and get rid of the dumpling wrappers and let him chop the stuffing. If you wait any longer, the winter solstice will be over."

Aunt Fang was stomping on the meat. She added some salt to the meat, and she smiled as if she had become five years younger in an instant: "He came back from the military camp with great difficulty, so you can let him go. The old slave dare not agree." General Xiao snatched it."

Chunya was also rushing to wrap the dumpling wrappers, her face that had been cold all year round was now beaming with joy: "I used to make dumplings every year during the winter solstice, but the servants were busy in private, and the master and servant never tasted them together. However, grandma, you are good at everything, but you don’t care about your master’s affairs. Now the people from Westinghouse have bullied you to the door, and the slaves and servants have heard about the poisoning. Westinghouse did it, you look at her like a bodhisattva, and you see the gods go to the outside of the city to give out porridge, she has a dark mind, others can't figure it out, and she will be sold for money."

Wanzhu said angrily: "That's right, Chunya thought so too, Miss..."

Su Fengjin held the embroidery needle in her hand, embroidered two stitches with downcast eyes, without raising her head: "It's all over, so don't mention it again."

Aunt Fang was chopping the meat, smiling all over her face: "Grandma is still sensible. The old lady is wrong about this matter. If you bring it up again and again, it seems that the people in the East House will not be able to do things. On a good day, just talk nonsense." speak!"

Xiao Fugui had flour on his hands, and wiped Su Fengjin's face: "Sister, we are all working, and you should let go of your hair-like needles, and don't be afraid to blink your eyes. Don't say anything when the time comes." It's embroidery, I can't see anything clearly, come and help me remove the dumpling wrappers."

Aunt Fang's heart skipped a beat when she saw it: "Oh, master, please be gentle, she still has injuries all over her body, and only her eyes and paws are idle."

Su Fengjin put down the embroidery needle, and Wanzhu came over to wipe Su Fengjin's face, and scolded Xiao Fugui: "Look at the flour on your hand, it has made my lady's face as snow-colored."

Xiao Fugui rubbed his nose: "Isn't her pale face the color of snow? If you want me to say, you have to stare at your sister and eat more, lest she be so idle."

Su Fengjin's face turned pale immediately after being touched by Wanzhu. Chun Ya looked at it and laughed loudly: "Oh, Aunt Fang, don't chop meat, look at grandma's face, it looks like a cat, it's really true nice."

Su Fengjin wiped her face, took out a handful of flour, and said angrily, "Okay, one by one, I just want to see if my aunt is joking! Hurry up and work, and the winter solstice will really pass."

Xiao Fugui wiped Su Fengjin's face: "Don't hide, look at your face, if you put some rouge and vulgar powder on it, it will look much better than the second lady of Qingfu."

Wanzhu patted his hand away: "Nonsense, my lady is so beautiful and low-key. If you look at the whole Chang'an city, there are a few people as beautiful as my lady."

Xiao Fugui grabbed the dumpling wrapper and grinned: "Hahahaha, sister, listen to what this Wanzhu said, you are really shameless."

Wanzhu grabbed a handful of flour and smashed it on his face, and spat ferociously: "Bah, you are shameless, your whole family is shameless, by the way, last time your parents came to the house to expose my young lady, Hmph, my young lady is so poor, how can there be 10 taels of silver, if the master didn't come in time, she would definitely have to be beaten up, please open it up, I won't talk to you."

Yiqiu returned home with a newly plucked cabbage, and saw Zhan Qingcheng standing outside the door, holding a bunch of candied haws in his hand with a smile on his face. I saw a ghost, the cabbage in my hand almost fell to the ground: "Zhan... what are you doing here? Do you still want to be a thief?"

Zhan Qingcheng glanced at the cabbage, inserted the candied haws on the cabbage, and said with a smile, "Come here and rub a bowl of dumplings."

Yiqiu pushed the door open, turned around and entered the room, although she moved quickly, she still caught some wind and snow and entered the room, Zhan Qingcheng followed shamelessly and squeezed in, still holding the bag that Yiqiu snatched from Yiqiu. Chinese cabbage, with a bunch of bright red candied haws stuck on top of the cabbage.

For a moment the noise in the room quieted down, Yiqiu stretched out his hand to grab the cabbage in his hand, but Zhan Qingcheng was tall, with one move of his hand, Yiqiu couldn't reach it even if he jumped up, he was furious for a moment: "The surname is Zhan! Return the cabbage to me, whoever wants to eat your candied haws, you should take your candied haws and get out! What are you doing here on a happy day, you are really looking for bad luck."

The light in Zhan Qingcheng's eyes was dim, he pulled the corners of his lips, and whispered twice in her ear.

Everyone saw that Yiqiu changed his face in an instant, and smiled so charmingly and affectionately, but that shadow seemed to be on fire, raging with anger.

"The general misunderstood. The slaves are not trying to drive the general away. It's the winter solstice. The general might as well sit down and eat a bowl of dumplings."

Su Fengjin: "..." What kind of medicine did Yiqiu take wrongly?To listen to Zhan Qingcheng's words like this.

Yiqiu is Su Fengjin's friend, since she said this, Su Fengjin can't say anything else, Zhan Qingcheng pulled a chair and sat on Su Fengjin's soft side, that standard general sitting posture is really domineering!

He pulled the candied haws from the top of the cabbage and stuffed them into Su Fengjin's hands, pretending to be troubled: "I passed by a stall when I left the palace. The proprietress saw that the general was born very heroic, so she forced it here. There is no place to put it, so I reward you."

Wanzhu glanced at Su Fengjin worriedly, and tugged at Chunya, Chunya smiled openly, and said to Zhan Qingcheng: "The general doesn't know, grandma is still talking about eating boiled gourds this morning, she says it's candied gourds Eating it with the winter solstice dumplings, one mouthful is fresh and the other is sweet and sour, this is the first time I have heard of such a way of eating."

Su Fengjin pursed her lips and remained silent, she didn't want to talk to Zhan Qingcheng, she just wanted to stay away from this person, as far away as possible.

She thinks that after a while, she won't be so concerned about Zhan Qingcheng, those bad past events can be forgotten, just like Zhao Ruancheng.

Now Su Guanjin doesn't resent Zhao Ruancheng so much, he already has a wife and son, so what is she expecting?

Su Fengjin felt that she was like a duckweed floating in the sea. She thought that the boat that touched Zhao Ruancheng would be docked, but she didn't know that it was in the middle of the sea. No matter how much she followed, she could only follow a certain distance. When a wave came over, everything was overturned.

Zhan Qingcheng suddenly reached out and wiped the flour on her face, Su Fengjin scolded as if startled: "What are you doing!"

Zhan Qingcheng took out a handkerchief and threw it on her face: "Your face is so dirty, wipe it off well, if you go out, you must dress properly, so as not to lose the dignity of Zhanfu."

Su Fengjin snatched the handkerchief, and wiped it angrily: "Is there any face to lose in the east room? After sitting with the general sword for so long, it's time to warm up. Please come back."

Zhan Qingcheng touched the top of her hair with a smile, the soft touch made him feel nostalgic: "It's still cold, I won't turn back."
