Hua Nongying

Song Ying was sent directly to the gate of the bamboo courtyard by the carriage, probably because Huajiang didn't want him to lose face in front of many subordinates of the city lord's mansion, and only said that he was a little unwell from the exhaustion of the ride.

Caiyi and Sixi had been waiting outside the courtyard for a long time, because they saw Song Ying getting off the carriage supported by Erxingban.Combined with the previous rumors in the City Lord's Mansion, Caiyi twisted her face and asked the young master Erxing what happened.Erxing went to the courtyard with Song Ying, and at the same time berated Caiyi in a low voice, "I will call you Madam from now on."

Caiyi supported Song Ying with a dazed expression, while Sixi cheerfully took some of Song Ying's belongings from the groom.Only Song Ying, the whole person is not ordinary listless.The reason is that just now, when he and Hua Jiang were sitting in the carriage and he was about to open the curtain to get out of the car, Hua Jiang suddenly grabbed his arm and pulled him back, and gnawed at him unexpectedly.After eating it, he said something to him, "Don't act recklessly in the mansion, there are many pairs of eyes staring at you." Before they left the house, Hua Jiang warned him, "Don't be arrogant." Is he really regarded as the "woman" of this family?

It really makes no sense!Song Ying caressed her heart that had been beating irregularly before, and slowly moved towards the front of the bronze mirror, looking at the face inside that she was used to seeing, without turning her eyes for a long time.

Suddenly, a long fragrance wafted over from behind the half-open screen, Song Ying shrugged her nose and exclaimed, "It smells so good, what did Erxing order?"

"I took some of the pack of incense tablets that the city lord gave you, and I burned them. According to Director An, this incense has the effect of calming the nerves." Erxing's voice came from inside.And the pack of incense tablets he was referring to was the bulging pack that Song Ying was sent back to the city lord's mansion by Cheng Yiyang, and the Huajiang forced him to use it when he was attacked when he didn't say why.

"Second Xing, you can go find your brother in a few days."

"Eh?" Er Xing, who was making the bed, didn't realize it for a moment. When he straightened up and turned around, he saw his young master with a black hair and shawl, looking completely casual.It seemed that it was his auditory hallucination just now, as if the young master had never spoken at all. "Ma'am, what did you just say...?"

After Song Ying rolled her big eyes upwards, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed and stretched out her hand to pinch one earlobe, looked elsewhere in the room and said, "You should call my young master back."

"But...you are the wife now."

Song Ying turned her face back with a bad attitude, and slammed a K on Erxing's head and shouted: "What do you know, am I your master or you are my master?"

"But……"

"Do you want to find your brother?"

"...Yes, young master." Erxing finally nodded excitedly.

"Well, good boy!" Song Ying patted the young man's face contentedly, turned and walked out: "I have long wanted to say that I will let you go to find my brother when I am more stable, but we seem to have been here forever. It's not very|stable, so it's shelved."

Erxing hurriedly chased after Song Ying, "But will the city lord agree?"

Song Ying turned sideways again, looked at Erxing and said, "This is what I want to discuss with you next. As for me, I probably can't accompany you. After all, I can't help myself now. You are alone I am not at ease, if you are willing, I will go to ask Hua... City Lord, it is best to find you a guard with strong martial arts to protect you."

Erxing widened a pair of almond eyes, quite unbelievable, and looked at Song Ying with extreme reluctance. "Moved?" Patted the boy on the shoulder and sighed again, "But if he doesn't want to, is there any problem for you to go on the road alone?"

"No problem! No problem." Erxing's chest rose and fell with excitement.

Song Ying nodded to him with a smile, "That's good!"

"Master!" Looking at Song Ying's back who was about to leave the room, Erxing said with some displeasure, "If Erxing leaves, is it really okay to leave you alone in the mansion?"

Song Ying opened her mouth in surprise, and suddenly let out a faint smile. "There are colorful clothes in the mansion!"

"Thank you, young master. Erxing must hurry back soon." Erxing could never forget that when he was still in Wushuang Fort, his eyes were red from crying, but he still pretended to be strong and sat in front of him, eating the boiled noodles he cooked. And at the beginning of the wedding, he was apprehensive about the unfamiliar environment, but he was afraid of the young castle master's worry and pretended to be optimistic, but ran wildly after sending the young castle master away.

On the contrary, most of the young master's previous memories have been forgotten. Later, in the city lord's mansion, he heard the servant girl next to Mrs. Side comment, "It is said that this lady has always been cowardly, just like a woman." 'Although it happened that Mrs. Side had dealt with those two little girls who had bad mouths severely after passing by.But where did they ever think that the young master who had been in danger several times when he first entered the city lord's mansion was not always very calm and heroic, at least in his eyes, the young master has always been like this.I never complain afterwards, and I don't care about anyone if I don't panic.Not to mention that when he was attacked on the road, the young master who didn't know swordsmanship at all guarded himself who didn't need to be guarded by him in the best way he could.Even though the city lord made fun of the young master later on the boat, he actually regarded the sword as a knife.But at that time, he was the only one who saw seriously, under the expression of sneering at the young master, there was a faint flash of light in his eyes.

At that time, he knew that it would be a matter of time before the young master and the city lord consummated their marriage.It's just that I never expected... so fast!Ah, now when he thinks about the movement of the two of them that night, he feels ashamed, and the people who hear it will feel ashamed, so that now he feels a little unnatural when he gets along with the young master.

When Hua Jiang first returned to the City Lord's Mansion, there were many important matters waiting for him to deal with, and he even spent the night in the study until he was ugly.Song Ying seemed much more relaxed. He started to sleep after dinner, and when he woke up naturally the next day, the layer of frost on the roof tiles had almost melted.

After a day's rest, Song Ying and Erxing were on their way to pay their respects to the old lady when they heard a maid discussing in the corridor, saying how much the Lord Hua doted on his concubine Liu, and that the Lord Hua was still working so late. Don't forget to stay in the summer courtyard.From the proud tone in the conversation between the two, Song Ying could tell that it must be Xia Yuan's servant.

On one side of his face, Song Ying found that Erxing looked at her in a daze. Seeing that Erxing was about to open his mouth to speak, he stretched out his fingers and made a gesture of silence until the two girls could hear In the range of movement and stillness, Song Xin frowned at Erxing and said, "Why do you have that expression?"

"No, it's nothing." Erxing stammered and lowered his head, with a strange expression on his face.

Song Ying snorted softly and said nothing.In fact, from the overheard conversation just now, Song Ying can draw two conclusions. One is that Hua Jiang and his concubine Liu Shi are indeed a couple of gods and immortals as rumored outside.The second is that very few people knew about his injury, but he went to stay in the summer courtyard. This also shows that he has absolutely no defense against Liu Shi, who has his trust.

I was almost at the Orchid Courtyard where the old lady lived, but I saw an old woman walking back and forth on the road as if anxious.Song Ying took a closer look, hey, what a coincidence, isn't that the nanny in the old lady's yard?

"Nurse Zhang!" Song Ying rushed to greet her and said, "Did you drop something? You looked anxious."

Nanny Zhang let out an ouch in surprise, and pulled Song Ying back and forth, "It's not that something was lost, but someone was lost."

"Hey, mother, where are you taking me?"

"Where else can I go, the old lady heard that the new wife is coming back, so she has been arguing to see you early in the morning. Come with me quickly, I see that you should go to the old lady's room to say hello at this time, and make a special trip Come here and cut yours."

Song Ying was flattered and trotted along with the old mother, "Then you can send someone over to pass the message, and you will be waiting here."

"I can't help it. The old man has lost his temper. He said he didn't see you and didn't eat breakfast. It was useless for the city lord to persuade him just now."

"That's not good!" Song Ying picked up her robe and started to run without needing to be reminded by Zhang Momo.

The old lady really missed Song Ying, and when she saw him enter the door, she called him 'Little Ying'er'. Acknowledge your mistake."

The old man patted his forehead and pretended to be angry and said, "Then how can I admit my mistake."

Nanny Zhang and Nanny Yang stood beside each other, smiling from ear to ear.After the old man finished eating, he added another sentence to Song Ying, "Hua'er just left, he's busy, I'll let him go first."

Song Ying nodded with a smile, handed the old lady a cup of tea for mouthwash, and then chatted with the old man for a long time, until the old man was a little tired, he promised to come early the next day, and left.

On the way back to the old lady's yard, Erxing said doubtfully, "It seems that the old lady really likes you, young master."

Song Ying also expressed that she couldn't figure out the situation at all, but when she went to the old lady's yard, she seemed much quieter.Madam Su prepared some food for Song Ying, while the old lady knelt beside the altar and silently lit incense.Looking at the half-closed door, Song Ying asked Mother Su, "Does the old lady do this every day?"

Su Momo nodded, "Recently, the old lady has copied the Heart Sutra again, and she doesn't rest until late at night. I can't persuade you, I'm very anxious."

About this old lady, Song Ying always felt very mysterious.It's not good for him to inquire about other people's privacy in private, but at least in his opinion, this mysterious lady has never said a word, and many times her response to other people's conversations with her is very flat.

Today, after he offered tea to the old lady, to everyone's surprise, he asked the old lady, "I beg the old lady to bring Song Ying to read the Heart Sutra together."

Even Er Xing and Madam Su looked at him with strange expressions, only the old lady slowly sipped tea, and calmly raised her eyelids to look at Song Ying.If the old lady's eyes were full of love and innocence, then the old lady's eyes showed a sense of detachment and extraordinaryness. This was the first time Song Ying dared to look at her.

The old lady looked at Song Ying for a long time before she looked away, but she didn't give any response.When she got up and walked towards the house where the altar was enshrined, Song Ying was reminded softly by Mother Su, "Don't go in with Madam."

Song Ying was stunned for a long time before she suddenly came back to her senses and followed her.Perhaps it was the reason why the old lady often offered incense. In that small room lit by candlelight, even the wooden tables and chairs were soaked in a pleasant fragrance.Song Ying didn't dare to look carefully at the layout of the room. He bowed deeply to the old lady who was sitting at the top, and then slowly let out a breath, and sat at the bottom of her head.

The Heart Sutra, Song Ying grew up in her grandfather's house when she was a child, and was punished by her grandfather to copy it when she was naughty. "You are always naughty, but your mind is unstable. I punish you to copy these in the hope that you will be able to characterize them in the future. At least when your mind is not clean, copying it will help you." These are the exact words of my grandfather.

After she grew up, Song Ying used the method of copying the Heart Sutra to relieve a lot of troubles whenever she had troubles or knots.It's just that when work got busier and he started dating and wanted to start a family, he forgot about it.

For several days, Song Ying and the old lady invited An to come to the old lady's place and accompany her to copy the Heart Sutra.It's just that the brush calligraphy that I am usually proud of is really ashamed in front of the old lady's standard lower case.

Later, when I ran into Hua Jiang many times, Hua Jiang's attitude towards him was really intriguing. Either he was indifferent, or he just nodded and didn't give him a chance to speak at all.It was like returning to the alienated and indifferent attitude before going to another hospital or even worse.And the city lord's monopoly on the Liu family is also widely circulated in the mansion.

Song Ying said to Erxing: "I really can't speak in front of Huacheng Lord these days. You can wait a few more days. If you really can't do it, you can go on the road alone."

One day, when Song Ying said this, Er Xing felt aggrieved, wronged for his young master, because he didn't understand why the city lord seemed to be a different person suddenly when he returned to the city lord's mansion.Could it be that the previous city lord was just a whim? "Master..." Erxing didn't know how to comfort him, "Master, you don't have to worry about Erxing. You and the city lord..."

Song Ying cut him off, "I have nothing to do with the city lord."

Later, the isolated city ushered in the first rain in winter.Lingering, like human melancholy.
