It was finally time to leave. Shen Yu stood up, put a decent smile on her face, said goodbye to everyone in the Wuyang Marquis Mansion, and couldn't wait to wait for Mrs. Jiang outside the second door.
The night had shrouded in darkness, and the surrounding area was somewhat blurry. Shen Yu felt cold, gathered her cloak, stood next to the horse, lowered her head and kicked pebbles on the ground with her feet. Suddenly, a hand stove came from It rolled over and broke into pieces in front of him, and the carbon ash inside spilled all over the floor.
He looked up and saw a girl in a blue cloak standing in panic not far from him, pointing to the hand stove in front of him with an embarrassed look on her face.
He smiled and waved his hand, saying it didn't matter.
Seeing the girl getting into the carriage with the help of the servant, he stopped looking. The carriage left, and he waited for a while before Mrs. Jiang came out. He hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and the faint smell of medicine penetrated Mrs. Jiang's body. His nostrils usually didn't feel anything when he smelled it, but maybe he drank some wine today and felt a little nauseous when he smelled it.
Madam Chiang didn't notice anything strange about him, and told him to be careful while riding the horse, and to get in the car if he felt dizzy. He smiled and said he didn't drink too much, and helped Madam Chiang get into the carriage.
Si Xi led the horse over, and he got on the horse, anxious to go back. Even though there was no hope with Shu Yao, he still longed to see her. The temper he had yesterday, he regretted it later when he thought about it. What kind of person is Uncle? Even he is afraid of him. How can Shu Yao, a weak woman, dare to disobey him?
Uncle Jiu must have insisted on holding her hand, and she had no choice but to let him hold her hand. But she didn’t know when Uncle Jiu started to pay attention to Shu Yao, and when Shu Yao met Uncle Jiu. If you want to hate it, you can I hate Uncle Jiu. He is obviously an elder, but he still has no scruples at all. To compete with him is to abandon even the most basic ethics and integrity?
In the past, it was just his father and mother who had a vague hostility towards Uncle Jiu. He knew from a very young age that there was a certain atmosphere of opposition surging among them. He didn't understand the reason. But now he has some experience. Uncle Jiu took away The glory that should have belonged to his father, the Duke's palace was withering day by day, but the general's prestige was rising day by day. Now, he wanted to take Shu Yao away from him again - even if he never really got her, he wouldn't Allow others to have any contamination with her.
The horse's hoofs clattered on the road. Shen Yu sat up straight on the horse, with a solemn look on her face that she had never seen before. Si Xi glanced at him secretly, feeling anxious in her heart, always feeling that something was going to happen. .
On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, Shu Yao got up very early as usual without being urged. After getting everything ready, she was about to go out, but she was stopped by Shu Ya. Shu Ya smoothed a strand of hair from her ears back, He looked her up and down and said with a smile:
"In a few days, it will be the time for you to get your haircut. It's not convenient for my sister to hold a big party for you here, but it's still okay to hold a small banquet. I thought about it, it's not a good idea to have no elders at the haircut ceremony. You should tell the old lady in advance Can you tell your wife and invite them to watch the ceremony?"
It turned out that this was the matter. Shu Yao had also thought about what to do with the hairpin ceremony, but she knew that it would be difficult for her sister to live in this house, so she didn't intend to let her worry about it, even if she didn't want those customary etiquette. Moreover, she could clearly feel it, Mrs. Jiang I don’t like her. Shu Yao smiled and shook her head, saying:
"Sister, why do you need to do this? Just take good care of yourself. What do you care about these chores? It's just a birthday, it happens every year, so there is no need to pay so much attention to it."
Shu Ya was not willing, but she stubbornly wanted to give Shu Yao a simple haircut gift. Shu Yao couldn't help but let her down, so she had no choice but to agree.
