lotus carp

Jing Li told me that she was leaving.

She didn't tell me what she was going to do.But from her questioning, I can also guess a general idea.A big horse with a tall head, a marriage bestowed by the imperial decree, and seeing all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

I don't know what way she thought of, but with such a big plan, no way can avoid the great risk.

But I didn't stop her.The brilliance in her eyes when she talked about this plan, and the expectant look in my mother's eyes when she asked someone to count the auspicious times for me, all told me that I only had this way to go, and I also believed that she could go this way.

I stubbornly believe that we parted ways in the misty and rainy Gusu, and we will meet again in the cloud-covered capital next time.

During the months of waiting for her, I ordered my personal maid to secretly find the bright red fabric and the raw materials for making lotus and carp incense, and hide from everyone and start embroidering the dowry.

Xipa, Xifu, quilts and pillowcases for mandarin ducks to play in the water, and all kinds of sachets are the most embroidered, with prepared lotus carp incense, which has almost become the material sustenance for me to miss Ah Li.

I carefully hide these embroideries in the bottom layer of the closet, like hiding my anxious thoughts.
