gold princess

Yun Buhui felt upset, and said coldly, "If you are afraid that I will offend people and the scene will be ugly, I don't have to go to worship the ancestors later. You told my father that I am unwell and need to rest, and I won't go to dinner, so as not to offend others. Happy."

"The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes." Cheng Mubai said, leading her to sit aside, Yun Buhui struggled awkwardly a few times, Cheng Mubai rushed into her, and the cold New Year's Eve wind blew in, her cheeks were as white as lotus root , the beautiful eyes were filled with a cold and stubborn light.Cheng Mubai felt distressed and pity at the same time, he wrapped her hand gently and rubbed it lightly, her hand started to be cold in autumn, and it was frighteningly cold in winter.Yun Buhui looked down at his hand, the big hand covered the soft little hand, his palm was very warm, as if a ball of fire covered a ball of ice, as if to soften the ice and snow in her heart.

Cheng Mubai sighed, helplessly following the cold wind into her ears, Yun Buhui was extremely ashamed, what happened to her?She was in a bad mood but vented it on him, and she made others unhappy when she was unhappy. Is she crazy? "No regrets, I know you are in a bad mood, and I have no malice. Don't misunderstand what I said, you know? If you are really unhappy and don't want to go out, I won't force you. I will tell my father that you are unwell in a while. Grandfather, I will come back to accompany you, okay?"

His voice was gentle and pitiful, afraid of hurting her, Yun Buhui was even more ashamed, the more gentle he was, the more willful and arrogant she appeared, Yun Buhui blushed and wanted to apologize, but Cheng Mubai put his index finger on the between her lips.

It was windy and snowy outside the house, and the fragrance of plum came in through the window. Her world was filled with the cold fragrance of the air and his gentle tolerance, like a hot spring wrapping her cold body, covering the thick layer of ice on her heart, gradually Melting, Yun Buhui had a sore nose and red eyes.

"Xiaobai..." She bit her lip, her grievance grew stronger, Cheng Mubai patted her back lightly, he knew her sadness, although she didn't mention it.From knowing to today, he has never seen her so fragile. In his eyes, Yun Buhui is proud, intelligent, calm, wise, and strong... and has never been associated with weakness.I just found out today that his wife has deep sorrow in her heart, which he never knew.

She is like a plum blossom on a branch, blooming in full bloom against the wind and snow, but never withers.

It was before, it is now, and it will be in the future.

He will slowly heal her wounds, let her trust him wholeheartedly, and give him her body and mind completely.

Not everyone is qualified to obtain this exquisite heart, nor is it so easy to obtain it.

"Don't be sad, okay?" He asked with a smile, gently stroking her face, "You look beautiful when you smile, even more beautiful than the plum blossoms on the branches outside, so don't be sullen."

Yun Buhui smiled, stretched out his arms to hug him, and rubbed his face against his neck, as if he was looking for familiar warmth, the shallow coolness swept across his neck, and was covered by her breath again, it felt very strange and throbbing.

Tears fell drop by drop from her eyes, and fell on his mink cloak, Yun Buhui thought, would her fear of New Year's Eve lessen because of his company?He didn't know that she was used to rejecting New Year's Eve, ignoring New Year's Eve, and hating New Year's Eve... This day was her nightmare, once it aroused her sadness, it would haunt her every night, she was very afraid of this feeling.

No one to tell, no one to share, only one person suffers, hurts, and misses.

Cheng Mubai asked, "Would you like to tell me what's going on?"

Yun Buhui's body stiffened, as if the water was freezing. Cheng Mubai felt distressed, annoyed that he was talking too much, and subconsciously changed his words, "It's because of my husband's talking too much. I don't ask. Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."

Cheng Mubai said firmly, "From now on, I will spend every New Year's Eve with you."

Yun Buhui nodded in his arms, and hugged him even tighter, not daring to let go, as if he would disappear as soon as he let go, Cheng Mubai embraced her, breathing lightly, white smoke rising from the indoor heater, warm as spring.The fragrance of cold plums and the warmth of the room intertwined to create a warmth, and she suddenly felt a sense of stability in this world and the tranquility of time.The demon born on New Year's Eve slowly disappeared in her heart, and Yun Buhui gradually calmed down from the irritability in her heart.

"New Year's Eve is my mother's death day." Yun Buhui said, with tears in her eyes, Cheng Mubai was startled, Yun Buhui seemed to be caught in the memory, suffering endlessly, and she smiled bitterly, "On New Year's Eve, mother dressed up very beautifully. , wearing the most beautiful wedding dress, I will always remember that she is so beautiful, just like the most beautiful peony in Fengcheng. I asked her, mother, why is she dressed so beautifully, like a bride. Mother said, today is Chinese New Year Ah, you have to dress beautifully during the Chinese New Year. She squatted down and said, no regrets, you are so beautiful, just as beautiful as your mother, but you are unlucky. , you must not be like your mother, you must be happy, as long as you are happy, father and mother will be happy. She said, don’t regret it, you have to listen to the third aunt, grow up well, and marry into the palace in the future. I will not treat my daughter badly. She said, no regrets, I'm sorry, mother is too tired to watch you grow up, mother is going to find your father. I was too young at the time, I don't understand why mother said these things to me, She was smiling all the time without crying. I thought my mother was very happy, because she smiled so beautifully, and only unhappy people would cry. She asked me to pick some plum blossoms for her by the river, and she said she wanted to see it. I said Go out to pick plum blossoms, and when I go back, my mother is already dead..."

When Yun Buhui talked about these things, her head hurt. These dusty memories had been buried in her heart for too long, and she never mentioned them. It was too painful for her, so she couldn't even think about it.Repeating these things now, the past seemed to tear her apart, Yun Buhui trembled all over, Cheng Mubai hugged her tightly, regretting asking her these things, what a blow it must be for the young Buhui to witness his mother die in front of him.

"Don't regret it, don't say it, it's all over."

Yun Buhui shook his head, tears shattered on his face, "I can't get over it, I can never get over it, this matter will never get over in my heart, do you think my mother committed suicide just because she missed my father? No, no, that's not the case, no That's it. I am the only blood of the Yun family, and my father is a warrior. Mother knows that every expedition is a torture, and she is mentally prepared to accept that father will never come back. She is because..."

She suddenly stopped her voice, and the courageous hatred and resentment in her eyes were slowly hidden, and she was severely suppressed by something, suppressed, and slowly returned to calm... She laughed, and her fingers tightly grasped His clothes said, "I'm also very tired. Before New Year's Eve, I'm also very tired..."

"I know, I know..." Cheng Mubai hugged her and patted her on the back tenderly. He couldn't do anything. She was right. There is no such thing as empathy in the world. He couldn't feel the same sadness and pain in her heart. despair.He just loves her, loves her very much, but can't feel her pain.She knew that Yun Buhui hadn't finished speaking, and she still kept some things from him.

But it doesn't matter, it really doesn't matter, she is already willing to talk to him about the old things, she is willing to share with him the saddest thing in her life, he already feels very happy and satisfied, and has nothing more to want to know.

He even regretted asking about this matter, asking about this matter seemed to slash the scar on her heart again, it was very cruel, Cheng Mubai wiped away her tears, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, this silly girl...

"Stop crying, I'm tired, just rest for a while." Cheng Mubai said, carried her to the inner room, put her on the bed, Yun Buhui didn't want to sleep, but only wanted to hug him, Cheng Mubai took off his shoes and socks, Hold her and give her the deepest hugs.

He knew why she was so preoccupied these days. It turned out that it was because of her mother's death.

She was already upset, she didn't want to celebrate New Year's Eve, but everyone in the house told her that she was celebrating New Year's Eve, she still had to buy new year's goods, and she had to deal with everything on New Year's Eve, how could she not be bothered.

As for the sacrifice, New Year's Eve is the anniversary of her mother's death. She was married, and she couldn't even offer a bouquet of incense to her mother. It was said that there was not enough gold, silver paper and incense candles today, which naturally aroused her discomfort, and the backlog of anger broke out. .

Fortunately, she was venting her anger on herself.

Since getting married, she has always been smiling, never blushed with him, no matter how loving the couple is, they will quarrel, but Yun Buhui never does, no matter what happens, she can face it with a smile.He used to think that Yun Buhui was a temperless person, she could calmly calculate everyone, and always maintain such a confident smile.

He hoped that she would show some small temper, and also hoped that she would have some small shortcomings, and that small temper would be tolerated by him, so that he would feel that she was real.People are the most presumptuous, rude and unscrupulous in front of the closest relatives. They cry when they want to cry, and laugh when they want to laugh. He wants to see such a cloud without regret.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't take my anger out on you." Yun Buhui never concealed her mistakes, she knew that what she did was wrong, she lost her temper with Cheng Mubai for no reason, but Cheng Mubai didn't care at all.

"Silly girl, don't say sorry. I am your husband. You are angry. If you don't take it on me, who do you take it on? I am your dearest person. You can show any side of yourself in front of me. Do you know?" Cheng Mubai said, Yun Buhui pursed his lips, the closest person?She has never had this concept, and the closest people in her heart are Third Aunt, Lou Kaiyang, Yaoguang, Bingyue and others.

When Cheng Mubai mentioned it, Yun Buhui suddenly realized that he was indeed her dearest person.Husband, husband, the husband within ten feet, he is not her closest person, who is her closest person?

She smiled wryly, perhaps she had realized it in her heart long ago, but never admitted it, otherwise, how could she explain her loss of control today, she would never let her anger erupt in front of strangers, unless she was unconscious.

Cheng Mubai, Xiaobai...the dearest person.

Well, the closest is the closest, and she will also be his closest person in the future.

"I feel much more at ease." Yun Buhui said, "I will never embarrass you for a while."

"It's good to be comfortable, tell me if you are unhappy in the future, don't be bored by yourself."

"Will I be happy just to tell you?"

"I can't fight back, I can't fight back, you can vent it as you like until you feel comfortable, is that okay?" Cheng Mubai said with a smile, coaxing her gently, his little wife also needs someone to coax.

"With your broken body, you can't fight back. I'm afraid that my mother will peel my skin."

Cheng Mubai also laughed, playing with her fingers, he said, "I don't regret it, I am very happy today, after being married for so long, today is the happiest day."

Yun Bugui was puzzled, how could he be happy?She scolded him for making him happy?

Cheng Mubai said with a smile, "It feels like you are one step closer to me. I know you like me, and I can feel it, but I always feel that I can't get into your heart, I can't get in at all, as if something is blocking me, I can't see your sincerity..."

"Xiaobai..." Yun Buhui hurriedly wanted to explain, Cheng Mubai tapped her lips to prevent her from explaining hurriedly, he said, "It's true, this feeling is actually terrible, I know you like me, I know But I can't feel your heart, it seems that liking is just a very superficial thing, you can see it, but you can't touch it. But today, I really feel it, you are willing to get angry in front of me, and you are willing to lose control in front of me , it makes me feel like I have touched your heart, do you understand that feeling?"

Yun Buhui didn't understand, and wanted to ask a question, why isn't you like this in front of me, you are always so gentle and gentle, the clouds are calm and the wind is light, can she say that she can't feel it?But she didn't refute, because she felt his heart, cared for him everywhere, loved him everywhere, this couldn't be pretended.

She didn't understand why she gave Cheng Mubai this feeling.

It's fine if you don't understand, now that Cheng Mubai said he felt it, it doesn't seem to matter whether she understands it or not.Maybe she was too defensive, let him feel this way.

In the future, she will treat him better, no matter how good she is...

Cheng Mubai hugged her with a smile, neither of them could fall asleep anyway, so he coaxed her to talk, said what was in her heart, coaxed her to chat, Jing Nan came back after a while.Yun Buhui asked Lingxi to send the things to the ancestral hall, and asked if it was enough by the way. Lingxi came back and said that it was enough, and Yun Buhui felt relieved.

The Lou family will also offer sacrifices to their ancestors today, and she is content with someone offering incense to her mother.

When the bowl was halfway through, Cheng Mubai and Yun Buhui went to the princess's room, Yuzhi and Yuwu had already arrived, they went to the ancestral hall together, people from Xiyuan, Nanyuan and Beiyuan had arrived, and they all stood outside the ancestral hall.

The prince led the people to sacrifice.In front of the prince, followed by Cheng Youtian, Cheng Mubai and Cheng Mudong, the third row is the princess and several side concubines, and then Yun Buhui, Lou Yanran, Yuzhi and others stand in a very regular order.

The ancestors of the palace are the royal family, they are all immediate relatives, there are the former emperor and concubine Hui, and then there are the ancestors of the royal family. When offering sacrifices, everyone is very respectful and polite, fearing that they will desecrate the royal family.

Compared with ordinary sacrifices, he is even more cautious.

When kneeling, female relatives are not qualified to kneel down, only the princess and Cheng Youtian, Cheng Mubai and Cheng Mudong are eligible to kneel down, and the female relatives will burn incense with them, and the burning of gold and silver paper is also done by Cheng Youtian, Cheng Mubai and Cheng Mudong, and female relatives are not allowed to touch it. .

The ceremony was held in accordance with court rituals and was very solemn.

Yun Buhui doesn't quite understand this method, but do as the Romans do, and every family has different ritual rules. Girls in Fengcheng can kneel down to worship their ancestors, and they can also burn paper for their ancestors. The customs of the royal family may be different from ordinary people.

For half an hour, no one spoke, Yuzhi was lively and did not dare to speak in the ancestral hall, the palace had rules, and girls were not allowed to speak during sacrifices.Yun Buhui thought to himself, there are really many and complicated rules.

After the sacrifice, there is lemon water at the door to clean hands, and everyone cleans their hands one by one, and this is the end.

The prince took everyone to the hall for dinner.

Seeing that Yun Buhui was in a calm mood along the way, Cheng Mubai smiled, and finally let go of his tightly hanging heart. The princess just asked if Yun Buhui was in a bad mood recently, and Cheng Mubai knew from Lingxi that Yun Buhui almost offended him. Mother, please explain to her.The princess knew that it was Lou Xiuyu's death day, and she also forgave Yun Buhui. In the afternoon, Yun Buhui was in a bad mood and almost contradicted her. She saw it, but she didn't blame Yun Buhui.

When people are always emotional, when she has a temper, Yun Buhui will bear it, and when the younger generation has a temper, the adults should be more tolerant.

Seeing that everyone was happy, Cheng Mubai was the happiest.

During the meal, it was always lively, Cheng Youtian and Cheng Mudong were the best drinkers, and today they were happy again, and even toasted the prince several glasses of wine, Cheng Mubai couldn't drink, so he used tea instead to accompany them.The family is harmonious and harmonious, and Yun Buhui's mood is also a little brisk. It was wrong for her to blindly hide in her own world in the past. The grief will be relieved a lot.

At the very least, she can tell her mother that she is living a happy life, very happy.

Yuzhi, Yurong, Yumei, and Yuwu are going to perform, and the prince has given permission. The princess and several side concubines are also looking forward to it with great interest. The sisters have already lined up a dance together, planning to dance for the family on New Year's Eve.Yuzhi and Yumei had the most melodious singing voices, Yuwu and Yurong danced outstandingly, Yuzhi and Yumei sang and accompanied the dance, Yuwu and Yurong led the dance, combined with singing and dancing, they were one of the beauties in a hundred, their beauty was even more beautiful At the end of the day, everyone clapped their hands and encouraged each other.

After the sisters had a quarrel, the banquet was similar, so I went back to the garden to watch the new year.

Keeping the old age is a custom.

Yun Buhui has always kept the New Year's Eve, in previous years she kept it by herself, but this year she has one more person to accompany her, the mood is different.

On New Year's Eve, it was snowing lightly, and the wind was not strong, making it even colder. Three heaters were installed in Haoyue Residence. Yun Buhui was afraid of the cold, so he wore a thick cloak on the warmer to watch the new year with Cheng Mubai.

Cheng Mubai said, "Go to sleep for a while, and I'll call you when I'm waiting."

Yun Buhui shook his head, of course keeping the year old must be done from the beginning to the end, sleep is not sincere, but she was really sleepy, so she wanted to go for a walk, the plum blossoms in the yard were in full bloom, she wanted to go out to play in the snow and pick plums, Cheng Mubai didn't allow.She was cold, and in autumn she was wrapped in a cloak, her hands and feet were cold, and this winter was even more unbearable, how could he agree to her going to suffer the cold, the windows were closed tightly, fearing that she would be frozen.

"Let's go out and play together for a while, just for a stick of incense."

"No."

"The plum blossoms are blooming beautifully." Yun Buhui said regretfully, "The plum blossoms on New Year's Eve..."

Cheng Mubai's heart moved, he kissed her forehead, and said with a smile, "Wait a minute, I'll go out for a while, don't come out, you understand?"

Yun Buhui didn't have time to say anything, Cheng Mubai had already gone out, she couldn't help thinking that she was only restricting others, and didn't think about her own body, which was weaker than her, and was even less suitable for going out for a walk.

Speaking of which, he hasn't coughed much recently?

Bingyue came in with a pot of tea, "Miss, you still have to watch the year, drink tea to warm your stomach, don't freeze."

"Understood, I'm not so delicate."

Bingyue backed off with a smile, and after a while, Cheng Mubai opened the curtain and came in, holding a vase with a few plum blossoms in it, she was drinking tea, she couldn't help being taken aback.Cheng Mubai was wearing a white cloak, his face was like a crown of jade, his brows were smiling, his eyes were pure and deep, as if she was going to be drunk in the abyss of his gaze.The red plum set off his eyebrows and eyes even more beautifully, the color seemed to be in full bloom in his eyes, she was already fascinated.

She stared blankly at him coming, put the vase on the low table, and the candlelight flickered a warm outline on his face, she was stunned for a moment.

"What are you looking at?" Cheng Mubai smiled.

"You're so pretty." Yun Buhui couldn't even use beautiful words to describe him, so he said pretty.This is the most basic human sense. Cheng Mubai has been praised by others since he was a child, and he has long been used to such compliments, but he couldn't help but his ears turned red, and he replied magically, "My lady is also pretty."

Yun Buhui lowered his head shyly, and Cheng Mubai suddenly felt that what he said was too insincere and idiotic, so he just needs to use it without regretting it.

She stood up and brushed the snow off his shoulders, "Why did you go out to cut plums?"

"Do you like it?" He pointed to the cold plums on the table and asked, Yun Buhui looked over, those few cold plums were blooming very well, with a little white in the red, they bloomed brilliantly, she couldn't help nodding her head.

Cheng Mubai pulled her to sit down, "Don't you like plum blossoms? It's too cold today, you can just sit here and enjoy the plum blossoms. Let's enjoy the plum blossoms together and keep the New Year's Eve together."

She wanted to say, where do these plum blossoms bloom well and brilliantly outside?But after thinking about it, how are these plum blossoms inferior to the plum blossoms outside?The same is Ling Han opening up alone, the same is so beautiful.

The most important thing is the person's heart.

Yun Buhui smiled affectionately, and stretched out his hand, "Give me a red envelope to celebrate the New Year."

"How old are you, do you still want red envelopes?"

"Of course, you are so stingy. Someone gave me a big red envelope on New Year's Eve last year. He was still a stranger. Even if you were my husband, I couldn't bear to give it."
