Son

After more than half a month like this, Shen Yulan came here every day, and went back to the town to stay every night, expressing her intention to let Shen Xu go back with her, but Shen Xu couldn't persuade her, so she came to listen to Linqing.

Linqing was extremely embarrassed, although Shen Xu said clearly that he would not go to Mingzhou, but Linqing was always afraid that he was just saying it for a while, Miss Jiu kept talking about it every day, Lin Qing was afraid that Shen Xu would soften his heart, so he nodded.

On the one hand responding to Miss Jiu, on the other hand worried that Shen Xu would change his mind, and from time to time he had to worry that Miss Jiu would see through the relationship between the two of them. Lin Qing's heart broke into several petals, and her hair was turning gray.

On this day, a letter came from the Qin Mansion in Mingzhou. Shen Yulan had been away from home for several months. The child at home missed her mother very much and cried all day looking for her mother.

Facing the letter, Shen Yulan sighed softly. The cousin on the other side refused to go back with her, and the family on the other side urged her to return quickly. Cousin, farewell."

"Yes." Li Sandao, "Madam won't wait for Master Tang?"

Shen Yulan sighed and said: "I can't resist his strange temper, I can't tie him back. With Linqing by his side to take care of him, I feel more at ease."

Li San nodded, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.

Early the next morning, Shen Yulan packed her bags and retreated to the inn room.Li San drove, and the two arrived at Shen Xu's house in a short while.

Shen Xu was going to teach at the school that day, and Shang had just finished washing when he saw Shen Yulan coming, and wondered, "Why are you so early today?"

Shen Yulan smiled, "I came here to bid farewell to you, I'll leave early so that I can settle down in the city at night."

Shen Xu was surprised and said, "Leave now? Why is it so sudden?"

"If you don't leave, Cousin Xu will get bored." Shen Yulan said with a smile, "If you don't want to go with me, I'll just be sensible and go back by myself."

Shen Xu said, "Just kidding."

Shen Yulan smiled, "The child at home is young, I have been away from home for a long time, and I am worried, so I plan to go back."

Shen Xu sighed, "I let you worry about me."

Shen Yulan looked at him, with deep concern in her eyes, "Brother Xu, do you really not want me to go back to Mingzhou?"

Shen Xu hooked the corner of his mouth.

Shen Yulan sighed in disappointment, "Forget it, I'm relieved to force you to go back with me, but you are not happy."

"I'm fine here, you don't have to worry about it."

Shen Yulan forced a smile, and took out a letter from her bosom, "This is my address in Mingzhou, Brother Xu can ask someone to bring me a letter, if I can do my best, I will definitely help. "

Shen Xu put away the letter, and said sincerely: "Xiao Jiuer, I will remember your affection for me, and cousin Xu can't repay you."

Shen Yulan's eyes turned red, and she choked up and said, "You take care of yourself, I will visit you when I have time."

Shen Xu wiped her tears for her, feeling bitter in her heart, and called out: "Linqing, Miss Jiu is leaving, come out and relax."

Linqing was washing the dishes, when she heard the sound, she hurriedly wiped her hands and ran out, "Miss Jiu, are you leaving?"

Shen Yulan patted his head, "Well, you two won't feel at ease if you don't leave."

Lin Qing said shyly, "I didn't..."

Shen Yulan withdrew her tears and said: "Stop talking, it will delay the day if you talk too much, I will leave now, brother Xu has to go to teach, so you don't have to send it away, just write to me if you have anything to do, be careful .”

Shen Xu nodded, "Be careful on the road, and send a message when you get home. Linqing, send Xiaojiuer off for me."

Shen Yulan bid farewell to Shen Xu, reluctantly left the yard, walked a distance, and couldn't help but look back, only to see Shen Xu's thin body standing at the gate of the yard, a green shirt about to melt into the greenery of the mountains , Shen Yulan's heart was sore, she turned her head away cruelly, and raised her sleeve to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Lin Qing said softly: "Miss Jiu, don't cry, I will take good care of the young master."

Shen Yulan said: "I have been closest to cousin Xu since I was a child. Now seeing him so haggard, I feel really heartbroken. It is really helpless to leave him alone. I don't know what it will be like when I see him next time. In the past When I was happy, how could I have imagined that one day I would fall into such a situation.”

After all, he covered his face and wept bitterly.

The sorrow of separation affects the sorrow of family defeat, and Shen Yulan's pain comes from it, and she can't stop crying for a while.

In a panic, Linqing took out the handkerchief and handed it to her to wipe away her tears.

Li San led the carriage and said, "Madam, get in the carriage."

Linqing looked at Shen Yulan worriedly, Shen Yulan wiped away tears, endured the sadness, returned the handkerchief to him, and said: "I'm counting on you, please take good care of him for me, cousin Xu doesn't want to accept it." I have money, if you encounter difficulties in the future, you must write to me, don't learn from him to save face and make yourself suffer."

Lin Qing nodded, "Miss Jiu, don't worry, I will remember."

Shen Yulan touched his head worriedly, and sighed: "You are still so young, it's really hard for you. I can take care of myself, my cousin is not used to taking care of others, so I have to work hard for you."

Linqing lowered his head and shook slightly, "It's not hard."

Shen Yulan smiled, turned around and got on the carriage.

Li San raised his whip, the horse's hooves galloped up and rolled away.

Lin Qing waved: "Miss Nine, take care!"

Shen Yulan poked her head out from the window of the carriage, waved her hand, and the figure faded away, leaving only a trail of dust.

Linqing looked at the black shadow going away, feeling at a loss.

Although he counted the time when Miss Nine would leave every day, when the day came, he was still very reluctant to let go.

Life in the village is as calm as water, and the arrival of Shen Yulan is like a stone falling into the water, causing ripples.Now that the ripples are gradually disappearing and returning to normal, Lin Qing couldn't tell what it was like for a while, only felt a faint sadness, which made people's eyes sore.

He stood there for a long time before slowly walking home.

On the carriage, Shen Yulan's eyes were red, tears wiped away a drop, and another drop poured in.

Li Sandao: "Madam, don't worry, since Master Tang is willing to stay here, Madam doesn't need to feel sad anymore."

Shen Yulan said: "If he feels at ease here, I can't persuade him more. It's just that we have been separated for many years and finally met, but we have to separate in a hurry, which makes people feel sad."

"There is a time for meeting and parting, Madam, don't be too sad."

Shen Yulan smiled and said: "After following your nerdy master for a long time, I can speak some polite words."

Li San blushed slightly, "Madam laughed."

Shen Yulan sighed slowly, looked at the receding scenery outside the window, and said with emotion: "Forget it, destiny is impermanent, and there is no way to complain. At least he has someone by his side, so he won't be too sad."

Li San was silent for a while, and said: "Madam thinks, Young Master and Young Master Tang..."

Halfway through the conversation, I dare not continue.

Shen Yulan smiled, pulled her hair by her ear, and said: "I know what you want to say, you think I'm so stupid, you really think Linqing is Brother Xu's book boy."

Li San was surprised, "Then why——"

Shen Yulan sighed: "What about a man, as long as he can sincerely accompany Brother Xu, that's enough. There are so many side houses and servants in Shen's house, but when they are in trouble, there is only one young master who is willing to stay. For this Love, I can't bear to object."

Li San nodded, said nothing more, and concentrated on driving the car.

Shen Yulan sighed leisurely, and only hoped that the little prince would stick to his cause and treat Shen Xu well.

After Shen Yulan left, Shen Xu was depressed for a few days.

Linqing knew that he was unwilling to give up, so she didn't dare to say much, and just stayed by his side silently.

The afternoon was overcast, and it looked like it was going to rain but it wasn't going to rain. Lin Qing hugged the rabbit and looked out of the house, feeling a little worried about Shen Xu.

When it was almost time to leave school, the rain suddenly fell, and it poured down, which caught people off guard.Linqing realized that Shen Xu didn't bring an umbrella, so he quickly put the rabbit back into the nest, tied it up to prevent it from running around, then took the umbrella and locked the door, and rushed into the rain to pick up Shen Xu.

The people working in the fields were flooded by the sudden heavy rain and ran home one after another. They hurriedly bumped into each other, and the villagers even asked in amazement, "Where is the young master going? Go back to the house to hide from the rain."

Linqing was holding an umbrella, but she couldn't resist the drizzle and slanting wind, her clothes were already half wet.

"Go pick up the wife."

The villagers shouted behind him, "It's not too late to go when the rain is lighter!"

Linqing seemed to have never heard of it, and stubbornly went to school in the rain.

In the school, a group of children were lying in front of the window and cheering endlessly, feeling novel and happy about this changing trend.

Shen Xu sat in the hall, looking at the rain in the sky, not knowing where her thoughts were drifting.

Wang Ziqian pointed to a figure in the rain and shouted: "Brother Linqing is here!"

The children shouted, "Brother Linqing!"

Shen Xu stood up, walked to the window, and saw a thin figure staggering in the rain, the umbrella he was holding was already blown to this side, and the whole person seemed to be blown away by the wind.

He hurried to the eaves and dragged the man back into the house.

Lin Qing's whole body was soaked, her black hair stuck to her face, and her lips were frozen white.

"What are you doing here in such a heavy rain?"

"I'll bring you an umbrella." Linqing's voice was trembling.

Looking at his pitiful appearance, Shen Xu couldn't get angry even if she wanted to. She gave her an umbrella and drenched herself like this. I really don't know what is going on in this little boy's head.

Linqing hugged her wet clothes, shivering from the wind.Shen Xu didn't care about reprimanding, and hurriedly took him to the side room and asked him to change out his wet clothes.Lin Qing turned around and whispered, "Don't look."

Shen Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, they were all men, and they still cared about these things, at what time did this little boy still be so awkward.

"Hurry up and take off the wet clothes, wrap up the quilt, and I'll get some dry firewood to live on."

Shen Xu came in with a pile of dry firewood. Lin Qing had already taken off her clothes and put them aside, wrapped in a quilt and sitting on the side of the bed, her lips hadn't returned to blood.

Shen Xu sighed helplessly, and squatted down to start a fire.

After wiping the flint several times, he managed to light the stove. Shen Xu asked Lin Qing to sit over, took the wet clothes outside and wrung them dry one by one, brought them in and spread them out, and roasted them near the stove.

Lin Qing's hair was scattered on her shoulders, and her eyelashes were covered with moisture, making her look very pitiful.

Shen Xu sighed, "What should I do if I get sick from the heavy rain?"

Lin Qing whispered: "You didn't bring an umbrella."

"I didn't bring an umbrella. Seeing the rain falling outside, I wouldn't insist on going back in the rain. The spring rain is continuous, and it will become smaller after a while. There are so many students. Do you think there is a family that comes here to pick up the rain like you? "

Linqing lowered his head.

Shen Xu saw that the corners of his eyes were red, and knew that what he said was serious, touched his head, and sighed: "I am afraid that you will get sick in the rain, and I am not blaming you. Well, don't be sad, come and bring me an umbrella, I am very happy."

Linqing murmured for a long time before softly saying: "Don't be sad."

Shen Xu was startled.

Lin Qing bit her lip, summoned up her courage and said, "You miss Miss Jiu, I can accompany you to Mingzhou..."

Shen Xu stared at him blankly, unable to say a word for a long time.

The sound of rain outside the window, the sky is gloomy, and the world is hazy, making it hard to see clearly.

Shen Xu's erratic heart gradually calmed down in the faint firelight.

He stretched out his hand to caress the top of Lin Qing's head, and the voice seemed to come from afar, but it really came to Lin Qing's ears.

"Thank you."
