Chapter 153 "But I was trapped in this three-inch space by love, and I sacrificed my life...&qu
Xie Tingzhou followed Luo Changfeng into the palace.
After Xie Qinghuan settled Yin Sulan and her nephew, he also brought Chu Hanxiao back to the prime minister's residence.
Yuzhu and several of her maids spontaneously waited outside the prime minister's residence to greet her.
"Miss, you are finally back.
You don’t know that over the past half month, a young master of Zhenbei Marquis has been asking for a meeting every now and then!
The mistress couldn't tell him that you left the house alone, so she could only tell him that the young lady was in bed and it was not appropriate for her to see guests..."
Thinking of Gu Jinyi, Xie Qinghuan shook his head in a helpless manner!
"If he comes to ask for an audience next time, just grant him the permission!"
Yuzhu knelt happily.
"Okay, I'll report this to the mistress right away!"
Xie Qinghuan stopped him and said:
"No need. I have been away from home for many days. Now that I am back, I should go and pay my respects to my aunt."
"My lady, you are really polite. I will help you bathe and change your clothes right away."
Yuzhu’s little mouth is as sweet as honey.
This made Xie Qinghuan laugh at her cleverness.
After packing everything up, Xie Qinghuan rushed over to greet his aunt.
I only found out when I arrived at Yuanxiangyuan.
My aunt has been living alone in the main courtyard these days and has not allowed anyone to serve her.
She felt a little strange.
Ask Yuzhu and Yutong to wait outside the courtyard.
Only Chu Hanxiao was brought in.
Push the door and enter the hospital.
Xie Qinghuan was still a little nervous.
Although this is her mother's old residence.
But she hardly ever came in...
Looking at the yard covered with lush grass.
She swallowed.
I don’t know if it’s because no one has lived here for a long time;
Or maybe it’s because it’s getting darker and the sun is gone…
It was a yard full of flowers and lush vegetation...
But it always made her feel particularly cold.
I couldn't help but hold up the handkerchief and cover my chest.
Chu Hanxiao noticed her abnormality, stepped forward silently, and held her hand.
Look at her firmly and give her courage.
This gave Xie Qinghuan instant strength and support.
Walk through the quiet path.
Arriving at the door of the main house, he called out softly:
"Aunt? Are you in there?"
"..."
"aunt?"
Xie Qinghuan called out again, but unexpectedly, the door of the side bedroom opened.
Luo Jinyun adjusted his mood and forced a smile.
"Qing Huan is back?"
"aunt."
Xie Qinghuan knelt down to greet him.
She was helped up by the one in white clothes and without makeup.
"No need to be polite, come in and sit down."
Lead her into the house.
Xie Qinghuan hesitated for a moment, then signaled Chu Hanxiao with her eyes to wait for her outside the door.
She feels...
Something seems amiss with my aunt today.
Her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.
It's broad daylight and she's not even wearing any makeup!
It's really strange...
She is the mistress of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and hundreds of officials come and go during the day.
If someone comes to visit, how will she receive him in this state?
After seeing her enter the room, he just made tea and didn't say anything else.
Xie Qinghuan couldn't help it.
He tilted his head and asked:
"Auntie...what's wrong with you?"
Luo Jinyun lightly raised her long eyelashes and curled her lips in a faint smile.
This is the look without makeup.
It seems a bit weak...
She didn't stop her hands, but her answer was irrelevant.
"Qinghuan, do you think your aunt is very skilled at making tea and burning incense?"
Xie Qinghuan was stunned for a moment.
Watching the continuous movements of her hands.
Nodding hesitantly.
"Um……"
Luo Jinyun bowed his head and chuckled.
"But as a concubine, I am not qualified to learn these things...
The success you have today is all thanks to your mother, my elder sister."
The words fell.
Her tea was ready too.
Pour a glass for Xie Qinghuan.
His eyes fell into the cup and slowly sank to the bottom of the tea.
"Your mother... is an exceptionally heroic woman. In the words of your grandfather, she is the daughter of a general."
She recalled.
There was a gentle and sweet smile on her lips.
"As far as I can remember, she has been staying in the military camp with my father and brother. I can only see her once a year at the end of the year."
She chuckled.
There seems to be a mockery.
"But I only looked at him from a distance...
When the lady was alive, the rules in the general's mansion were strict.
It is impossible for illegitimate children like us to eat and drink together with legitimate children."
Xie Qinghuan nodded.
I imagined what my grandmother, whom I had never met, looked like.
I can’t imagine…
However, since she is the Queen Mother’s biological sister!
I think she should look similar to the Queen Mother!
Seeing that she was distracted, Luo Jinyun continued talking.
"The first time I came into contact with my sister was when my wife passed away. I was five years old."
She took a deep breath and looked...
Still a little nervous.
"After my wife passed away, my father rushed back from the military camp with my sister and brother to take care of my wife's funeral affairs and stayed in the mansion for a while longer.
One afternoon, I went to the front yard to eavesdrop on the teacher's lecture. My aunt found out and punished me severely.
My sister heard my crying and climbed over the wall to come in..."
Having said this, she smiled.
Seems shy.
“That year, my sister was only eight years old and she was still wearing mourning clothes.
He climbed into my aunt's yard, pulled me out from under my aunt's wooden stick, and protected me behind him.
She said…”
She raised her eyes slightly.
There are stars in his eyes.
It seemed that at this moment, she had already turned into that dashing eldest sister.
"'Father said that all the children in the general's mansion can study! She is so studious, why did you punish her?'"
She imitated her elder sister's demeanor and spoke in a pinched voice.
Milk is fierce, milk is fierce.
"Later I learned that my aunt did not allow me to study, but only let me learn needlework and dance and music, in order to make it easier for me to become a concubine in the future and please the master.
She added, 'Sister Yun, don't be afraid. Come live with me in the military camp tomorrow. I guarantee that no one will dare to force you to do something you don't like! '"
She lowered her eyes and smiled.
Every look was filled with admiration and pride for his eldest sister.
“Although I was not able to live in the military camp later, my sister was afraid that I would be wronged again, so she entrusted me to my grandmother, and I became a half-legitimate daughter.
Singing, dancing and music have nothing to do with me anymore.
Flower arrangement, tea making, etiquette and household management, all are done without fail..."
As she spoke, she shook her head gently again.
“However, compared to my sister who gallops on the battlefield...it’s nothing.
I still remember that before my sister got married, she would live with me every time she came home.
Tell me about the lonely smoke in the desert and the long river outside the Great Wall...
She said, Yun'er, if you have the chance, you should go out and see the world! The world is much bigger than Kyoto!"
Sigh.
Full of regrets.
“She said she would take me there…
But he was trapped in this three-inch space by love, and lost his life...
She broke her promise..."
Luo Jinyun's voice became lower and lower, revealing despair.
There seems to be... a faint resentment.
Xie Qinghuan was fascinated by what he heard.
I just realized it now...
Mother died giving birth to her!
She lowered her head and murmured:
"I'm sorry, auntie...it's all because of me..."
When Luo Jinyun heard this, she shed tears with her handkerchief.
A soft and warm silk handkerchief fell into her hand.
"Don't think like that, I never blamed you, neither did we!
You are the treasure that my sister exchanged her life for!
To me, you are my childhood sister...
Do you know how honored it is for your aunt to be able to watch you grow up?"
only……
She lovingly touched the little face that looked 70% like her sister, her eyes moist and sad.
Whispering:
“Now that you’re all grown up…
Liuxiangyuan became deserted and the old lady was sent back to Yangzhou.
No one can threaten you anymore...
My mission has been accomplished..."
