First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 129 Dirty

In a blink of an eye, it is New Year's Eve.

Bright red lanterns were hung under the eaves of each house early on, and red silk was hung everywhere in the courtyard... The Duke's Mansion was immersed in a festoon of lights and festoons, full of joy.

This is the most important day of the year, and the servants have all put on brand new winter clothes. The older girls and the younger daughter-in-law are all dressed up beautifully, as tender and bright as flowers blooming in a greenhouse. Just looking at them makes people feel sick pleasing to the eye.

Everyone is busy in and out with light footsteps, and everyone is happily preparing for the arrival of the New Year.

Except for Du Rongzhi.

........................

The sound of firecrackers outside is still lingering.

Du Rongzhi has been in a coma since the sacrifice due to lack of energy. When she woke up, her head was still dazed for a while. She stretched out her hand to block the glare of the light, and asked in a daze, "Nurse... Did Guan'er cough again just now?" ?”

"Are you awake?" Someone's soft voice came from beside my ear.

Du Rongzhi raised her head in a daze, before she could see that Song Zixun had already helped her up, "But dreaming again?" He put two pillows behind Du Rongzhi to make her sit more comfortably, "Guan'er's body has already It's all good... When I went to see it, I still smiled at me, and my spirits are very good, so you don't need to worry."

Du Rongzhi showed a faint smile, "It's my concubine who fell asleep...I always seem to hear a voice coughing in my ear." Her voice was still a little hoarse when she just woke up.

Song Zixun got up and poured a glass of water, and handed it to her mouth, "The imperial doctor said that you are caused by too much work, and you are still sick, so don't worry too much."

Du Rongzhi responded lightly, and reached out to take the tea bowl but he held it tightly, and finally had to drink with his hand.

The corners of Song Zixun's lips were raised in joy, he hugged her and said in a warm voice, "Do you feel better?"

"It's much better." Du Rongzhi smiled, smelling the faint smell of wine on his body, and then realized later, "What time is it now? Is the banquet over?"

"Not yet." Seeing Du Rongzhi looking at him curiously, Song Zixun casually turned his eyes away, picked up a strand of hair hanging by her ear, and played with it in his palm, "Grandmother said you have been ill for so long, It's the first time to celebrate the new year in the public mansion, so I'm afraid you'll be homesick for a while, so I asked me to come back earlier to accompany you."

Du Rongzhi couldn't help but bend her lips, and said softly, "Grandmother has always treated me very well."

It has been a long time since such a relaxed smile appeared on her face. Song Zixun was a little dazed looking at it for a while, but after realizing that the smile was not for himself, he felt so boring in his heart, so he said lightly, "You have slept for so long, you must be hungry Right? There are a few dishes in today's family banquet that are not bad, and you can try them later." He said and ordered the girl to pass the meal.

Du Rongzhi quickly got dressed.

She has lost a lot of weight these days, and the winter clothes she just made are loose and loose, so thin that they can be blown away by a gust of wind.

Song Zixun frowned, and sat down on the kang with her.

Today's dinner is really very rich, many of which are her favorites.Du Rongzhi looked a little hungry, and was about to start, when she saw the eyes of Nanny An who was waiting on her side.

Du Rongzhi pursed her lips, raised her head and said with a smile, "Did you finish eating just now? Do you want to use some more with my concubine?"

He actually nodded happily, "Alright."

........................

Song Zixun had eaten four to five cents full at the family banquet before, and now he only took a few symbolic mouthfuls, and then concentrated on serving Du Rongzhi's food.

...The dishes in front of him were quickly filled up, and Du Rongzhi saw that he didn't seem to want to stop, so he could only remind him in a low voice, "Master, there are enough of these..."

"Not many." He picked up a prawn with his chopsticks, "How can you be healthy if you don't eat?" He picked up the prawn and was about to peel it.

Seeing this, Nanny An hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, "How dare you trouble yourself with such a trivial matter, let the slaves do it yourself."

"No need." Song Zixun said, he had pinched off the head of the shrimp neatly while speaking, peeled off the skin of the shrimp nimbly with his slender hands, and picked out the shrimp string inside, and then put the whole shrimp into Du Rongzhi's plate .

Du Rongzhi has always had no resistance to fish and shrimp, so he thanked him in a low voice, and ate it silently.

"Is it delicious?" Song Zixun asked.

With something in her mouth, Du Rongzhi nodded upon hearing this.

The smile in Song Zixun's eyes deepened, and he picked up the second one without saying much...

After a meal, Du Rongzhi felt his stomach bulging, and the shrimp skins in front of Song Zixun also piled up into a hill.

"Or?" he said softly.

Du Rongzhi touched her lower abdomen subconsciously, shook her head, "I can't eat anymore."

Only then did he put the last peeled shrimp into his mouth with a smile.

........................

After dinner, Du Rongzhi took the medicine, and seeing that Song Zixun still had no intention of leaving, he had to make an excuse to see his daughter, and slipped out by himself.

In fact, her illness has not fully healed, and she did not dare to get too close to the child these days, she just stood outside and looked at it from a distance for a while, seeing that the little boy was not affected by the firecrackers, and was already sound asleep on the bed, so she said softly He told the night watchman to be careful not to let his daughter kick off the quilt, and dawdled outside for a while before returning to the house.

Song Zixun was already taking a bath.

... The soft sound of water came from the clean room, and Du Rongzhi wrapped herself in the quilt.

She felt so irritated inside, and what was worse, she didn't even know why she was irritated.

It's not like she hasn't experienced these things in her previous life - ever since Mr. Fu came in, she had quarreled with him, quarreled, disappointed and compromised, but never like this...

The clean room gradually became quiet.

Du Rongzhi turned around and closed her eyes.

His footsteps sounded in my ears.

The voice stopped by the bed.

The faint smell of alcohol before has been replaced by the fragrance after bathing.

"Don't sleep, you have to watch the New Year's Eve tonight."

He said and kissed it.

Du Rongzhi's face turned to the side - barely avoiding it.

All the enthusiasm seemed to be poured cold water in an instant. Song Zixun reached out to hook her chin, pursed his lips and only stared at her eyes.

In the darkness, Du Rongzhi's eyes were as clear and bright as ever.

She just didn't want to see him.

Very dirty.
