Although the little emperor kept him in every possible way and was reluctant to part, after his big wedding, the empress dowager in the palace died of illness.
At the same time, in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, in Qingshui Town, a town with simple folk customs, a family moved from other places.
The family moved in quietly, and when a large mansion in the town changed its owner, people nearby began to talk about it.
"You didn't see the wedding cake at the housewarming that day. It's really generous. For such a wide and thick glutinous rice cake, one person made three big pieces. Pine nut candy and copper plates were sprinkled out as if they didn't want silver. I was embarrassed to pick it up. Our second kid is so stupid, he even picked up a dozen copper coins, and I heard that many picked up a hundred or so!"
A group of women sat under a big tree and put their soles on their shoes, one of them spoke vigorously, and the rest were amazed.
"How much money does this cost?"
"No, it's nothing. After I posted it, I saw a woman in gold and silver standing at the entrance of the mansion. She was handsome and tolerant. I thought she was the wife of the family, so I was going to take my second kid. Say thank you, and you know what they said?"
"say what?"
"Yeah, say what you want to say quickly, don't sell it." Others hurriedly said.
The woman who opened her mouth saw that everyone was looking at her eagerly, and she said with satisfaction: "People say that she is just a servant in the house, and the lady is someone else!"
The other women were amazed again.
"The servants are so imposing, the lady in charge must not be like the fairy?"
"Who said it wasn't, I heard people say that the servants of that family spoke with a capital accent, so maybe they were big people!"
So the conversation changed again, and the women turned to discussing why the big man came to this small place like Qingshui Town.
The big house in the east of the town has been vacant for many years because the owner moved to the provincial capital, and now it has become popular again.
After Lu Xingzhou finished his business, he came out of the study, walked to the backyard, and asked Sanqi casually, "Where's Madam?"
"Bitao said just now that Madam is taking a nap, she should be awake now."
Lu Xingzhou nodded, Jiang Rui's routine was actually very familiar to him, and she knew exactly what time she did. But every time he didn't see someone in front of him, he would definitely ask something, which had become a deeply ingrained habit.
Stepping into the hanging flower gate, I saw a reclining chair under the flower stand in the inner courtyard, and Jiang Rui was lying on the chair peeling grapes to eat.
Seeing this, Lu Xingzhou walked over slowly with a smile on his face: "Madam."
Jiang Rui lazily raised her eyelids and glanced at him as a response.
"Why is Madam ignoring her husband?" Lu Xingzhou asked with a smile.
Now Jiang Rui really didn't even look at him. Which one is like him. In the past, the empress was long and the empress was short. Now, when she came to this place, she changed her words. The lady didn't know what kind of tendon it hit him. She didn't stop calling him a hundred or eighty times a day.
She ignored him, but Lu Xingzhou became more and more happy, so he had someone bring a washbasin to wash his hands, and sat on the small pier beside the reclining chair to peel the grapes for her.
Seeing this, Jiang Rui was very happy, washed her hands, and waited for him to feed.
The people who were serving on the side all retreated wisely.
Lu Xingzhou fed one or two, and they were honest. Later, when he saw Jiang Rui squinting and looking unprepared, bad thoughts began to appear. One time her thumb brushed her lips, and the other time she accidentally touched her tongue. Seeing that she didn't have a seizure, she became more and more aggressive. She simply put her finger into the bright red mouth, stirring up the soft tongue and grape flesh inside, and then pulled out her finger. In Jiang Rui's sight, she put that finger in the mouth. I licked clean in my mouth bit by bit, and my eyes were still staring at the person.
"Dirty." Jiang Rui raised her chin slightly, and fluttered out two words from her slightly swollen mouth.
These two words suddenly made Lu Xingzhou even more excited, and his breathing became a little thicker.
Jiang Rui knew that he liked this tune, squinted her eyes and said, "What are you going to do in broad daylight?"
Lu Xingzhou got closer and whispered in her ear, "I thought Madam knew."
"Who knows what your thoughts are?" Jiang Ruide pushed him away and got up to go to the front yard.
When he was stopped halfway, he hugged him by the waist, Lu Xingzhou smiled and said, "How can Madam be willing to leave her husband?"
Jiang Rui snorted softly, "When you are old, don't always learn to hug young people around, be careful to flash your waist."
Lu Xingzhou didn't take it seriously at all, and took her into the house lightly and skillfully.
He knew that she was impatient on the face, but he was concerned in his heart, and he knew that she was disgusted in her mouth, but in fact she pampered him in every possible way.
The sun was still high, and the two of them didn't really go to the bed. Lu Xingzhou sat on his lap with Jiang Rui in his arms. .
"It's been a while since we moved here. Would Mrs. Tomorrow come with me for a walk?"
"Where to?" Jiang Rui knocked his hand off again.
Lu Xingzhou's expression didn't change, and he tried to find a new path from under the hem of his clothes, "I have built a new farm for my husband. It's just in the village below, but it's only a dozen miles away. It's the autumn harvest season recently, so the fields should be lively."
Jiang Rui thought for a while, and was about to say yes when she suddenly let out a low voice.
"Well… "
It turned out that it was Lu Xingzhou's hand that took advantage of her unpreparedness, and finally broke through the many barriers. The hot palm pressed against the cool skin, almost scalding the person.
Lu Xingzhou laughed in a hoarse voice: "Mrs.'s voice is very beautiful, please call again."
On the one hand, the movements on the hands became more and more arrogant.
Jiang Rui's face was crimson, her eyes were misty, she tightly pursed her lips and didn't want to make a sound, but in the end she couldn't help it, she turned her head and bit on his shoulder, raised her red eyes and stared at him, "Lu Xingzhou, I see you There is no cure for the disease.”
"Madam's words are bad. For my husband's illness, isn't the best medicine for my wife?"
His words may be unintentional, but they really made Jiang Rui stunned for a while. When he reacted, he had already captured the city and seized the pool, and the situation was over.
The people in the big mansion in the town have always been the objects that people talk about.
That pair of mysterious masters, after all, let people see their true colors, and they can't help but sigh, they really are a pair of fairy-like characters.
However, there seemed to be no young masters or young ladies in the mansion, and many people felt sorry for it, but the following year, under the watchful eyes of the public, a young descendant from the capital called the master wife a mother.
Everyone said, and sure enough, the old man and his wife are really big people from the capital, and their children are still officials in the capital.
＊＊＊＊＊＊
The first half of Lu Xingzhou's life can be said to be vigorous and vigorous. He once fell into the most humble situation and stepped onto the pinnacle of supremacy. In the second half of his life, he was like a hermit, calm and peaceful. The big eunuch with palm prints, who turned the clouds over the rain, was willing to be so ordinary.
Before he died, Jiang Rui was by the couch.
His face was already gray, but his eyes were astonishingly bright, and they were locked on Jiang Rui's body like every time before, and the emotions in his eyes were deep and dark.
Jiang Rui seemed to know what he was thinking, and said softly: "You go first, I will come soon."
There was a moment of satisfaction in Lu Xingzhou's eyes, but more unbearableness and reluctance immediately emerged.
"No, you have to be fine, I can wait... We are hereafter..." he said extremely hard.
Jiang Rui was silent for a while, and nodded slowly in his eager and even begging gaze, "Okay... See you again in the next life."
Lu Xingzhou's face loosened, and all his strength was released, "I will definitely... find it sooner in the next life..."
He closed his eyes slowly.
There was a lot of crying in the house, Jiang Rui sat quietly for a long time, lying down beside him in all clothes, and when Sanqi and others found something wrong, she was out of breath.
The Lu family's mansion in Qingshui Town visited the two masters in one day, but only an hour apart. Master Lu and his wife were deeply in love, which gradually became a good story circulating here.
Jiang Rui returned to the sky with a ball of fluorescence representing Lu Xingzhou's soul.
The afterlife he talked about seemed to be still in his ears, but this group of fluorescence no longer had the common memory of the two.
She took a deep breath, got rid of the thoughts that shouldn't exist in her mind, and entered the next small world.
