After giving Yehua the acupuncture treatment, it was already dark.
Hua Xuanji was frightened, so she lay down beside the bed and fell asleep. She didn't know when the old grandma left.
In his sleep, he only felt a pair of warm palms lingering on his cheeks, and a warm voice like water came vaguely to his ears, but the voice came over and over again with only three words.
"sorry."
Hua Xuanji originally thought it was a dream, but when she opened her eyelids and saw those fingers as white as jade, she really expected that those sounds should be real.
Slowly raising her head, looking into those cold eyes, Hua Xuanji scratched her head, only to find that his fingertips were still on her hanging hair, and she hurriedly tied her hair behind her back with some embarrassment.
Along with it, the stool also moved back.
But he found that he was wearing a red robe. The repeated threads embroidered on it made it easy to identify the owner of the robe. He wanted to reach out to take it off, but was stopped by the man with his palm.
The cool eyebrows were now curved into an arc, and the chin also had a beautiful arc.
"It's beautiful just dressed like this."
As soon as the words came out, both of them were stunned.
The originally luxurious clothes looked very mismatched in such a small house. Yehua looked at the man with his head hanging down, who looked a bit shy, and suddenly felt a little unclear in his heart.
When I saw the dagger that day, I thought he was taken away by Bai Yan. The feeling that surged in my heart should be the so-called jealousy. However, when I heard the words of Bai Yan's entourage, the jealousy in my heart was taken away by the powerful worry.
.The only belief in my heart is that she cannot die and Hua Xuanji is not allowed to die.
At that moment, he had long forgotten that she was a broken body, had long forgotten that she was the villain he had guessed was sent by Bai Yan to snatch the soldier talisman from him, and even more forgotten that she was just a person sent by the Prime Minister to humiliate him.
tool.
The fever from last night had gone away early, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that pale little face, and she was also scared.
Thinking of everything he had done to her, those three words that he had never said came out of his mouth like that.
Again, and again.
Hua Xuanji's ears turned red unconsciously when he stared at her so straightly.
"Squeak." The sound of the somewhat shabby wooden door pushing open broke the awkwardness between the two of them. Hua Xuanji looked up, and the old nanny from yesterday walked in carrying two bowls of porridge and a few plates of side dishes.
"The meal is ready, let's eat something to satisfy our hunger."
She was a bother, so how could she keep the old man busy? Hua Xuanji hurriedly reached out to pick it up and put it on the edge of the cave. Her stomach had been uncomfortable all night last night, but she was not even hungry yet, so she turned to Yehua.
road:
"You eat first, I'll go out and get some fresh air." Hua Xuanji felt a knot in her heart, and she really needed to get some fresh air.
Yehua didn't want to stop her, but watched her retreat.
That day is coming soon, it's better not to think about this.
The moment the door closed, Hua Xuanji felt a little disappointed in her heart. Shouldn't he keep her?
There was a touch of coolness in the small courtyard in the early morning, but it gradually made people wake up. The old grandma took off the washed white apron, sat on the recliner, put a few rags at hand, and held a small piece of rag.
The silk thread seemed to be embroidering something. The white hair hidden in the blue silk looked even more profound at this time.
Seeing Hua Xuanji come out, the old nanny raised her head and smiled faintly at her, and continued busy with her work.
Hua Xuanji smiled back, but was instantly attracted by her seriousness. She squatted next to the recliner and watched her stitches. After a while, complicated threads appeared on the thick cloth in her hand.
"It's so beautiful." Looking at the exquisite embroidery work, Hua Xuanji couldn't help but sigh sincerely. If she learned how to make a sachet for him, would he know how to do it?
As soon as the idea emerged, Hua Xuanji's face suddenly turned red, and she turned her head and stared at the handkerchief in the old grandma's hand.
"Want to learn?" The old mama's voice sounded above her head. She put the embroidered handkerchief to one side and smoothed out the fine threads. There was a warm smile in her words. She seemed to have recognized Hua Xuanji's
Thoughts. He raised his eyebrows and tilted his head slightly toward the room.
"Men are very into this."
"Mammy." Hua Xuanji's face turned a little red when the old mama said it, as if she was about to drip water.
Mammy just smiled innocently and said nothing. She took another piece of good foundation and embroidered it carefully with a needle. She paused at each stitch to let Hua Xuanji look at the stitches.
Xuanji nodded before moving on to the next stitch.
The chicken that was locked in the cage last night was let out, running and jumping happily. Xiaojiu went out early in the morning, not knowing what he was looking for.
The secret guards didn't know where they were hiding, and only Grandma and herself were left in the entire courtyard.
Pieces of withered yellow leaves fell from the trees outside the courtyard.
It’s autumn. Everything seems so peaceful and peaceful, but it’s a bit unreal.
It was almost noon before Hua Xuanji figured out some ways. However, the hand holding the needle seemed to be disobedient, and the embroidery was crooked. This made the old grandma cover her mouth and snicker.
Hua Xuanji scratched her head in embarrassment and raised her head to face the smiling face of the old woman. The doubts in her heart came up again. Women's curiosity is powerful, and Yehua only told half of his own life experience.
, then a series of things happened and she didn't even come to ask.
Looking at Mammy's kind smiling face, Hua Xuanji asked tentatively: "Mammy, what is your relationship with Yehua?"
"What about you?" Nanny did not answer Hua Xuanji's question directly, but instead threw the question directly to Hua Xuanji.
"I..." Hua Xuanji stopped what she was doing, her eyes looking a little dull.
On the day of her wedding, she was kidnapped by Ye Hua. Although the emperor named her his concubine, no one really regarded her as his concubine. Even Xiaojiu called herself empress with respect and disrespect...
Hua Xuanji suddenly became confused, yes, who is she?
When she raised her head and looked at her mother again, she had already left her previous position. The autumn sunshine was also fierce, and when it hit her face, she lost a touch of tenderness. Hua Xuanji felt that her heart, which had just been about to be healed, was in chaos again.
stand up.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Just as he was thinking, Xiao Jiu's urgent voice suddenly came from outside the door. The old wooden door opened with a creak, scaring away a few chickens pecking at the door.
Only then did Xiaojiu realize his haste, scratched his head, and quickly ran into the hut where Yehua was.
Hua Xuanji put down her work in confusion, and just when she was about to step forward, she vaguely heard Xiaojiu shouting.
Even if he yelled, it was through the door after all, so Hua Xuanji only vaguely heard one sentence, but this sentence was enough to make her freeze in place.
Your Majesty, I have granted you a marriage.
The sound of horse hooves stamping on the ground came from outside the door. A carriage stopped at the door instantly.
Looking back again, the person he met was Yehua, whose leg injury was not yet healed, being supported by Xiaojiu.
