Ninefold Purple

In the Qixia courtyard, the bright red candles crackled and burst into sparks, and Wang Yingxue's hands were tightly twisted together.

"It's really deceiving, it's too much!" She stood in the middle of the room with a face full of anger, "Why should the East Mansion suppress the West Mansion in everything? I am already a serious wife of ten thousand yuan. Will sister Ming stay in her room?"

"Madam, please keep your voice down, please." Hu Momo hurriedly reminded her, glanced around and saw that there was no one, and then whispered, "Now is not the time to lose your temper—Seventh Master still needs five more Help me, you just got upright, and you don't have a son by your side...be patient for a while, so as not to worry about a hundred days!"

"I know!" Wang Yingxue's expression softened slightly, "If I didn't think so, I wouldn't have swallowed my anger today."

Mother Hu breathed a sigh of relief, and changed the subject with a smile: "Today is a good day for you, it's getting late, and it's almost time for Seventh Master to come, why don't I help you take off your make-up, and then drink a cup of lily and lotus seed soup ..."[

Wang Yingxue was embarrassed.

Qiongfang walked in with a box in her arms, smiling: "Mrs. Seven, this is a gift for meeting today. Where do you think it should be put?"

Speaking of this, Wang Yingxue was furious again.

Dou's family anointed Liang Jinxiu, and the servants who rewarded decent servants on weekdays were all silks and satins, gold rings and silver hairpins. The look in the eyes.

"It's not a good thing, can't it be hidden?" Her voice was a little sharp.

Qiong Fang's flattery slapped the horse's leg, not only did she not get a reward, but she was reprimanded for a while.

Mother Hu hurriedly winked at Qiongfang.Smiling and comforting Wang Yingxue: "The Dou family is not a wealthy family. The more important things are, the more low-key and restrained they are. Don't underestimate these things. Maybe they are all exquisite objects from some years ago? It's just us I don’t have time today, and when I’m free someday, my wife will take it out and have a closer look at it.”

Since Zhao Guqiu passed away.Xi Dou has no one to preside over Zhongfu, after a few years, it has become a mess, everyone has their own thoughts, and a few days ago, Dou Zhao divided up half of the property, those who were originally wholeheartedly flattering her Some people also began to wait and see, this time.All the people in the mansion who have eyes are probably staring at Qixia Courtyard. If there is anything strange about her, it will be exaggerated to the limit... It's better to go down the stairs with this statement!

Thinking about it, Wang Yingxue gave a soft "hmm", and was about to teach Qiongfang a few more words.A little maid said: "Gao Sheng is here!"

Everyone in the room was taken aback.

Wang Yingxue said suspiciously: "Please come in!"

Gao Sheng stood outside the plum pattern fan in the inner room, and said in a gentle and respectful voice: "Seventh Wife, Seventh Master said, it's too late today, so he's going to rest in the main room, so you should also rest early, and I'm going to greet the old man tomorrow , Mrs. Chen Zhengsan will come over and give you the pair of cards from Xifu. Please don't be late." After finishing speaking, he folded his hands and stepped back.

Wang Yingxue opened her mouth wide and didn't close it for a while, then her face flushed red, and tears welled up in her eyes: "What does he mean? He's looking for an excuse, why should he say that it's too late? It's only the first day of Xu... still resting In the main room...wouldn't it make me laugh in vain?"

Madam Hu also sensed Dou Shiying's strangeness, she hesitated and said, "Ma'am, do you want me to go and see?"

"No need!" Wang Yingxue gritted her teeth and said, "I'll invite you in person."

On the first day after entering the house, Dou Shiying rested elsewhere, how could she hold her head up in Dou's house in the future.

Nanny Hu accompanied Wang Yingxue to the main room in a hurry.

Dou Shiying has changed into homely clothes and is writing in front of the painting table.

Seeing Wang Yingxue, she was not surprised, but smiled faintly and said "You are here". [

Looking at Dou Shiying's handsome face under the light, the accusations that she had thought about on the road suddenly disappeared. She straightened her sleeves with some anxiety, and her voice became softer: "Are you tired today? Why are you alone? Stay in the main room and write?" As she said that, she walked over and smelled the smell of alcohol emanating from Dou Shiying's body. She smiled and said, "How much wine did Qi Ye drink? Why is he full of alcohol? The concubine's room Can someone bring you a bowl of hangover soup?" One side said, while rolling up his sleeves to help him grind ink.

Dou Shiying stopped her: "I have Gao Sheng's attendant here, go and rest, you will be busy tomorrow." The voice was warmer than the evening wind blowing in, but the man lowered his head and continued on written in his handwriting.

The meaning of refusal was so obvious that Wang Yingxue blushed, but she was never a person who waited. After thinking for a while, she suddenly stepped forward and hugged Dou Shiying's waist.

"Ten thousand yuan..." Under her eyes, her eyes were so soft that water dripped out.

Dou Shiying froze, and slowly put down the pen in his hand, gently but firmly opened the arms around him little by little: "Yingxue, I said, except for the name, I will give you everything else. I can't even give it to you...you know it too...don't we treat each other as guests?"

He turned around, staring at her quietly with his dark eyes like lacquer, with a serious expression.

Wang Yingxue was astonished.

Of course she knew... But she thought that time would dilute everything... Lovesickness from thousands of miles away is like warm jade in her arms...

Dou Shiying strode out.

The hosta flowers in Dou Mansion have already bloomed, and the rich fragrance blows over us.

He suddenly remembered when he got married.

Also the weather.

The hosta flowers are in full bloom, like crystals and jade in the moonlight.

The wife shouted "[-] yuan" in a crisp voice, and asked him "am I pretty?"...

He doesn't remember how he answered, but he only remembers his wife threw herself on him in surprise and joy, burning like a fire in his heart... His wife's silver bell-like laughter was next to his ear: " They all say that I'm not ashamed, but I just like you and I just want to marry you!" In her delicate and simple voice, there is unquestionable joy and satisfaction...

The fragrance of the flowers is so strong, like the decadence when it is in full bloom, it makes people feel palpitating and frightening.

He ran out...

There was a rumbling thunder, and the rain fell down.

※※※※※

Dou Zhao was awakened by the movement around him, and vaguely heard the voice of his grandmother telling Honggu: "...to see if the horses in the stable are frightened? Is the kitchen door closed? The straw in the woodshed also needs to be taken care of." Pick it up. So as not to be splashed by the rain."

Hong Gu answered with a yawn, and walked out wearing a cloak.

Grandmother turned her head and saw Dou Zhao who was huddled under the quilt, smiled and patted her lightly: "Shou Gu is not afraid. Aunt Cui is here!" [

Dou Zhao woke up instead.

She looked at the roof beams, feeling dazed for a moment.

There was a "cracking" knock on the door outside, resounding through the courtyard.

Grandma was taken aback.Liu Sihai, the long-term worker who lives in the west wing, has already taken a wooden stick to lock the gate and walked to the gate.

"Who is it?" he asked warily.

"It's Master Qi." The people outside said loudly, "Open the door quickly."

Liu Sihai hurriedly dropped the wooden stick in his hand, and opened the door with a "squeak".

Dou Shiying and Gao Sheng walked in in the rain.

"What's the matter?" The grandmother, who was standing at the door of the main room in cloak, hurried up to meet her, regardless of the heavy rain.

"It's okay, it's okay." Dou Shiying's clothes were already drenched. Although the weather in midsummer was hot, it was still cool from the rain at night.His lips turned pale, "I'll come and see Shou Gu."

The grandmother's eyes showed deep doubts, but she didn't ask anything, and ordered the mother-in-law to boil water, and asked Honggu to go to the wealthy Lang's next door to borrow two changes of clothes.

Waiting for my father to clean up.The rain was getting stronger, and the sky was overcast, as if it could not bear the weight and would collapse at any time.

Sitting on the kang, Dou Zhao was drowsy, nodding his head like fishing.

She was unimpressed by her father's presence.

In the middle of the night, with such a heavy rain, if you are not careful, you will catch a cold or even die from a sudden illness, and you will be so tired that the people you visit will rush to help you find a change of clothes and arrange hot tea... Childish and willful.Being so inconsiderate doesn't look like a father.

More importantly, she felt that no matter what kind of conflicts her father and Wang Yingxue had, it was too weak to run away like this.

Father didn't have such self-consciousness, he rubbed Dou Zhao's head with a smile.Ask her softly: "Do you still have the habit of living in the farm?"

"Get used to it!" Dou Zhao turned his head and knocked off his father's hand, "Everyone treats me very well."

Dou Shiying looked at the rough and simple furnishings in the room, and felt that the eldest daughter was a bit heartless.

He stood in front of the kang in silence for a long time.

Dou Zhao wanted to sleep very much, but her father was silent, so she could only say, "Daddy, aren't you going to sleep?"

Dou Shiying didn't make a sound. After a while, he slowly sat beside Dou Zhao, and asked her in a deep voice, "You, do you still remember your mother?"

Dou Zhao was surprised, and his face gradually turned positive.

"I still remember your mother." He murmured, the corners of his eyes flickering, "The day she married me, she wore an emerald ring with a gold setting, made into the shape of a crabapple flower... ..."

Dou Zhao turned his face away, sadness slowly overflowed from the bottom of his heart.

※※※※※

Father left before dawn, and Dou Zhao looked at the clear sky after the rain and was stunned for a moment.

After being sad, people have more courage to face those unsatisfactory things in life!

She went back to the house to practice calligraphy.

Zhao Liangbi graciously helped her tidy up the study.

She said to Zhao Liangbi: "Shall I give you a name?"

Zhao Qibi was both happy and worried.

I am happy that I don't have to call him Gousheng anymore, but I am worried that Dou Zhao will give him a name similar to Gousheng on a whim... I can't change it in the future!

"How about Liangbi?" Dou Zhao wrote his name on the paper, "It means beautiful jade. I hope you will be as beautiful and humble as beautiful jade."

Zhao Liangbi was overjoyed, and took the piece of paper on which Dou Zhao wrote his name and showed it around.

In just one day, everyone in the farm knew that the dog's name was Zhao Liangbi.

The grandmother also praised the name for her success, and said that she would take her to the temple for a few days. Unfortunately, my father's vacation was over, so he came to pick up Dou Zhao and told the grandmother: "If you have anything to do, someone can send a letter to the six. Brother, when I am in Kyoto, he will take care of you and Shougu."

Grandma nodded, not taking this sentence to heart.

She has lived alone in the farm for more than twenty years and has nothing to do. She believes that she will never go to Dou's house for anything in the future.

But Dou Zhao made a request to his father: "I can't take Zhao Liangbi back."

Father asked who Zhao Liangbi was?

Grandmother told father about his origin.

Father heard that Zhao Liangbi was named Zhao Liangbi with the help of Dou Zhao, so he nodded, "Then take it back!"

In this way, Zhao Liangbi appeared at Dou's house ahead of schedule.
