Chapter 4 Memory
Qingya sat in front of the bed, looking at the willow branches that had started to turn green in the yard.Spring in the north always comes much later than spring in the south.The spring in this season in the south of the Yangtze River is probably bright and beautiful, and the flowers are blooming like a brocade.

"Brother Yu, I want the one that looks the best." Qingya shouted cheerfully standing under the tree.

"Okay! You wait here below, and I'll pick it off for you right away." Yuan Yu, who was lying on the tree, began to crawl towards the flower that Qing Ya had mentioned.

"Ah!" Li Qiuwan, who ran over from a distance, exclaimed when she saw Yuan Yu who had climbed up the tree.She walked quickly to the tree, and shouted angrily at Qingya: "Yu Qingya, how could you let Ayu climb up the tree? Do you know how dangerous it is?"

Seeing Li Qiuwan's unkind expression, Qingya immediately lowered her head obediently.She muttered in a low voice: "It's not that I let Brother Yu climb the tree, it's him who insisted on picking flowers for me."

"What are you talking about? Louder!" Li Qiuwan looked angrily at Qingya who was muttering softly and said loudly.

"Okay! Don't blame Qingya anymore. She didn't ask me to climb the tree. It was me who wanted to pick a flower for her." Yuan Yu, who jumped down from the tree, looked at Li Qiuwan angrily. explained.He handed the branch in his hand that he had finally broken off from the treetop to Qingya, and said, "Qingya, let's see if this is the one you wanted just now."

Qingya took the flower from Yuan Yu's hand, and did not forget to glance at Li Qiuwan who was standing beside her angry.

"It's this one!" Qingya looked at the flower in her hand and shouted happily, she took the flower close to her and sniffed it herself, and said happily: "It's so fragrant!"

"Yeah! It's so beautiful!" Yuan Yu sighed looking at Qingya's unparalleled beauty, his sister Qingya was much prettier than Hua.Now that she is only ten years old, she has already finished like this. I really don't know how stunning she will be if she opens her eyes!

"Brother Yu, Qingya, Cousin. So you're all here, I'm having a hard time finding it!" He Qiuyi walked over from the other end of the garden.

"Wow! Qingya, the flower in your hand is so beautiful! Where did you pick it from?" He Qiuyi looked at the flower branch in Qingya's hand enviously and asked.

"Brother Yu helped me pick it, and it was picked from this tree." Qing Ya winked at Yuan Yu and said mischievously.

"Brother Yu, is it true?" He Qiuyi looked at Yuan Yu with admiration and asked.

Yuan Yu nodded embarrassedly, he really didn't think it was such a big deal to climb trees and pick flowers.

"Brother Yu, can you pick one for me too?" He Qiuyi looked at Yuan Yu expectantly and asked.

Yuan Yu frowned, and he glanced at Li Qiuwan who was standing aside.The cousin who was bluffing just now put on a look of watching the show.

"Next year! The most beautiful branch of this tree has been picked." Yuan Yu looked up at the tree and said lightly.

He Qiuyi's face blushed with anticipation. As she got older, the chances of her seeing Yuan Yu when she went out became less and less. This time, if her cousin didn't invite her, she wouldn't be able to see Yuan Yu .She didn't want to miss this opportunity just for nothing.She wanted to say something more, but Li Qiuwan who was standing aside said first: "You guys still want to go, if you don't, the city gate will be closed!" Li Qiuwan looked at the blushing cousin and shook her head.Her cousin looks sleek and sophisticated, but she just can't see through the word love.Anyone can see that Yuan Yu's thoughts are on that little girl Qing Ya, but her cousin just doesn't give up.

Qingya sticks out her tongue towards Yuan Yu who is full of smiles, and then trots to catch up with Li Qiuwan's footsteps.

He Qiuyi looked at their leaving backs with a look of resentment, and stomped her feet resentfully.She wiped away the tears of grievance in her eyes, and slowly followed their footsteps.

"Qingya, Yuan Yu has returned to the capital. He asked me to tell you that he will ask his father to find a matchmaker to propose marriage." The second brother Yu Shaokang yelled while looking at the flushed Qingya with a smile.

Qing Ya blushed, but her heart was sweet.Since she passed her 13th birthday, her father did not allow her to go to the academy anymore.Speaking of which, she hadn't seen Yuan Yu for more than a year.

"Oh! My second young master, our eldest lady is a woman in the boudoir, how can you say such words to the eldest lady that will damage the reputation of a woman?" Mother Fang who just walked in from outside the house looked at Yu Shaokang with a look on her face. said disapprovingly.

Qing Ya casually glanced at Nanny Fang, although Nanny Fang was her nanny, but after all, the second elder brother was the master, and Nanny Fang was a bit overstepped even though she wanted to protect her reputation.

After seeing Qing Ya's inadvertent glance, Mother Fang couldn't help but shudder.She has never understood this young lady whom she has grown up with.

"Second brother, have you finished your homework today?" Qing Ya asked Yu Shaokang with a smile on her face.

Yu Shaokang's face froze. As the second young master of the century-old scholarly family Yu's family, his schoolwork was very heavy, and he didn't have much time to play at ordinary times.If he hadn't come to tease his eldest sister today, he wouldn't have sneaked out of the academy.

As soon as Qingya saw the unpredictable face of the second brother, she knew that the second brother must have slipped out of the academy.In fact, he still has some sympathy for the heavy studies of the elder brother and the second brother. Speaking of which, the second brother is just a teenager.But as the eldest and second young masters of the Yu family, they carried too many burdens on their bodies.

When Yu Shaokang was mentioned so disappointingly by Qingya, he immediately lost interest.He stood up reluctantly and said: "Okay, big sister, I've brought the words, I'm leaving." Yu Shaokang hung his head and reluctantly left Qingya's room.

Qingya looked at Yu Shaokang's lonely figure and shook her head.Although her second elder brother was born in Yu's family in a scholarly family, he is more martial at heart.It's just that as the Yu family, it was an inevitable choice for him to take the road of imperial examination.As the dean of Songshan, his father would not let him take the path of martial arts.No matter how much Qingya sympathizes with her second brother, there is nothing she can do.

Yuan Yu left, and it took one year to leave, that is to say, in this short one year, the Great Han Kingdom changed.

"Young Mistress, it's time to drink the medicine." Yu Hui said softly with a bowl of dark medicine in her hand.

Qingya wiped away the tears that kept rolling down her cheeks, and at some point, she had already burst into tears.Qingya turned her head, staring at the bowl of black concoction with dim eyes, with a mocking smile on her lips.

The medicine was a tonic sent by Mrs. Yin's. It was supposed to nourish her body so that she could give birth to the eldest grandson of the Ling family as soon as possible.Qingya picked up the bowl of medicine, and drank it with a raised neck.

Yuhui hurriedly handed a plate of candied fruit to Qingya.

Qingya waved her hand, no matter how bitter the medicine is, it can't compare to the pain in her heart.She wants this bitter taste to stay in her memory forever.

Yuhui hesitated to speak and looked at Qingya with red and swollen eyes, and finally couldn't help but said: "Eldest young mistress, you are in good health, why do you have to drink these tonics!"

Qing Ya smiled slightly and said: "After all, this is mother's wish. Since she wants to be a good mother-in-law, then I will help her."

"The medicine is three-point poisonous, young mistress, try to drink less of this medicine in the future!" Yu Hui said worriedly.

Qingya looked at the worry in Yuhui's eyes, and couldn't help feeling warm in her heart.Yuhui and Yuxiu, the two big maids, were raised by her alone, and they also grew up with her in Yufu.Although they are masters and servants, sometimes they are more like her sisters.

"Don't worry! I know what's going on. You go out first! I want to be alone for a while." Qingya said with distant eyes.

"Yes." Yu Hui replied lightly, then walked out of the room lightly.When she was about to leave the room, she couldn't help but glanced worriedly at the eldest young mistress who had been sitting in front of the window without moving.She and Yuxiu have always disapproved of the young mistress taking these tonics.She and Yuxiu understand better than anyone else the reason why the eldest mistress has been unable to conceive for so long.In the final analysis, the root of the problem lies with the young master. During the six months or so of marriage, it is rare for the young master to rest in the room of the young mistress. Sleep in separate beds.Up to now, the eldest young mistress is still a perfect body, just imagine, no matter how many tonics such an eldest young mistress drinks, she will not be able to give birth to a child!
