Chapter 403: Waiting to let go

Views:

Back in the nunnery, when she heard Lu Yihui say that the handkerchief was lost and all these things happened because she was looking for a handkerchief, Mrs. Mao became even more annoyed, and said angrily, "Good! Good! This is really my good daughter. ! How old are you this year? You can lose a veil! You're—vanilla!"

Mao turned her head and glared at Xiangcao fiercely: "You girl is so ignorant, how do you serve her! You are asked to serve the girl, so you just take care of yourself, don't you!"

Vanilla was so frightened that she plopped and knelt in front of Mrs. Mao and even said she didn't dare. Lu Yihui also looked ugly, and couldn't help pleading for mercy. Mrs. Mao became even more angry, and kept blaming her.

Shitai Jingshui looked embarrassed, and finally couldn't listen any more, she smiled and said, "It's all our fault, if it wasn't for the old nun talking too much, the girls wouldn't go to see Plum Blossoms, and this kind of thing wouldn't have happened!"

"Master, I don't mean to blame you! It's because our girl is too annoying!" Mao said hurriedly.

This is a nunnery, and Mrs. Jingshui is in charge. How can Mrs. Mao blame her

Miao Cuilan breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly took the opportunity to laugh and said, "I don't think it's too early, so we should go back, right? The sun will go down after a while, and the road might be so cold!"

Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly said yes, and looked at Mu Qing.

"Then go back! It's really late!" Mu Qing smiled and got up, and everyone bid farewell to Mrs. Jingshui and went back together.

"That third aunt of yours is really—thanks to your mother living in the same house as her, she can bear it!" Miao Cuilan whispered to Lu Xiaoshu taking advantage of the surprise.

Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly covered his mouth to hold back his laughter with a "heck", and whispered back: "Actually, my mother is nothing else, even if I endured it, there's nothing I can do about it!"

"Stinky girl!" Miao Cuilan couldn't help giving her a bad look, and the mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled.

After entering the city, the two mansions were not in the same direction, so they said goodbye to each other and left.

As soon as Mu Qing and Lu Xiaoshu's mother and daughter returned to the mansion, the mother-in-law who stayed behind came in and replied: "A young master surnamed Lin came to visit the mansion this morning. Farewell to the master and wife. The old slave went back to his wife and the girl went to the Plum Blossom Temple, so he left a letter and left."

"The surname is Lin? Is it Lin Fang!" Lu Xiaoshu was startled, and hurriedly asked to submit the letter.

Mu Qing was also very surprised, and said: "He can't go back and stay in the capital for the new year. It's only the first few days, why is he in a hurry to go back?"

"Who knows, maybe they have something to do at home!" Lu Xiaoshu said, opened the letter and read it with Mu Qing, there was no other words on the letter, it was just ordinary polite words like saying goodbye and cherishing.

Mu Qing sighed softly unconsciously: "He left too hastily, otherwise I should invite him to the house for a meal and see him off!"

Lu Xiaoshu didn't notice anything, and said with a smile: "Anyway, there will be chances in the future, so don't be in a hurry! He's leaving tomorrow. He may be busy today, and he needs to pack up and arrange things, so don't go." I'm bothering him! Hey, I really envy him, he can go wherever he wants!"

Mu Qing glared at her, looked at her for a moment and said slowly: "What are you talking about, girl! You are not young this year, and you have to look like a lady in the future. This marriage should also be formally mentioned. I mentioned it!"

Lu Xiaoshu immediately said: "Mother, I'll go back and rest first!"

Without waiting for Mu Qing to greet, she turned around and left.

Mu Qing sighed softly, and smiled wryly at Nanny Hua, and Nanny Hua laughed along with her and said, "The second girl is probably shy!"

Mu Qing snorted softly, shy? I'm afraid he still thinks about Zhou Shizhi! Now, even though the family is right, but the intuition given to her by that man is too dangerous, he is definitely not a good match...

On the night of New Year's Eve, Lin Fang wanted to go to Lu Xiaoshu's house, but he didn't expect to see her and Zhou Shizhi on the way. His heart throbbed violently at that moment, and he turned back in despair, never having the courage to see her again.

Since she already has her own heart and her heart is like a rock, what's the point of persisting and working hard? It will only make you more and more reluctant to let go and increase the pain!

If that's the case, I'm afraid that even the precious friendship at the beginning will disappear, and they will be strangers from now on.

Instead of that, it's better to let go and make things happen, at least leave each other with the good memories of childhood.

At least at that time, there was only him and her, and there was no one surnamed Zhou. It was a past that Zhou surnamed could never get involved in, a past that could never be destroyed.

Lin felt a little relieved, at least, they also had a happy time, even though that time was just his wishful thinking.

Lin Fang originally came to the capital to find Lu Xiaoshu, but now that he has found him and has to let him go forever, there is no point in staying any longer.

He just wanted to leave quickly, the longer he stayed, the more he worried that his mind would be shaken.

On this day, he also struggled for a long time whether to say goodbye, but in the end he couldn't match the inexplicable strong intention in his heart, so he went to the Lu residence.

Who would have thought that she would go out by such a coincidence...

At that moment, he was both disappointed and secretly relieved, maybe this is God's will! No, that's okay!

But after thinking about it, he was unwilling, so he left those words hastily.

After leaving the Lu Mansion, he couldn't help but had a strong thought in his heart. If, if she came to see him off after reading the letter, it meant that she still had him in her heart, and that he still had a chance!

Then, no matter what, he will not give up, no matter what, he will fight and fight with that surnamed Zhou again!

Thinking of this, Lin Fang suddenly felt hope ignited in his heart, and went back nervously and excitedly to wait.

On this day, Lin Fang was in a state of nervousness, restless, unable to think about eating and drinking, and looked outside from time to time, or listened to the movement outside, which made Cricket very puzzled.

Seeing that the sun is gradually moving to the west, the sky is full of orange red, and the sky in the west is beautiful, trying to publicize the last splendor of this day.

Lin Fang stared at Yu Xia in the sky for a long time, and his mood was the same. His waiting also reached the extreme. When the rays of light disappeared, his hopes were also shattered.

Little by little, the sun gradually disappeared, and the clouds in all directions gradually approached the gorgeous glow, covering and swallowing it little by little, and the sky darkened little by little.

Just like Lin Fang's heart, it also sank bit by bit.

When the last glare of the sun faded away and the twilight shrouded like light smoke, Lin Fang's heart also fell into the deep dark night.

Staring blankly at the flickering candlelight, he let out a low sigh.

Is he and her missing after all

But the day isn't over yet, is it? The sun has set, and there is the moon and the stars. The day is not over yet!

So, he couldn't help but have little expectations, and he didn't want to eat dinner. Just sitting in front of the window, quietly waiting for God's verdict.

He didn't know how long he had been waiting, but he only knew that the sky had not yet dawned, which meant that he still had hope.

Until the steward came over cautiously and said: "It's already past the hour, young master should rest, we have to hurry tomorrow morning..."

His heart shook violently, followed by a dull pain.

Yes, tomorrow morning, I still have to hurry!

The pain spread in the body and heart, and the flesh and blood were separated, and the pain pierced the heart.

"Is it time?" He murmured, looking out the window at the dark night.

He smiled bitterly. After all, he didn't wait for her to come.

fair enough…

Lin Fang didn't go to sleep, but still sat there, watching the candle burn out until there was only a ball of candle tears left.

It was just dawn the next day, as if he was escaping, he didn't want to stay in this place any longer, he didn't even have time for breakfast, so he ordered to buy some food at random, and then led all the servants and left the capital.

At the gate of the city, he couldn't help turning his head, and took a deep glance at the tall and majestic city gate. He didn't know if he would come to this place again, pass through the Dao City Gate and see her again.

Maybe, no way...

How did Lu Xiaoshu in Changping Hou's mansion know that Lin Fang had been struggling and suffering all night? She went to bed early last night, just waiting to get up early the next day to see Lin Fang off.

But when she came to the house that the Lin family bought in the capital, it was already empty, only an old couple guarding the yard was left.

The old couple told her that the young master left early in the morning...

Lu Xiaoshu was a little surprised, and said in amazement: "Here, how early is early morning? Could it be that the sky has just dawned?"

The old woman laughed and said, "That's right! The young master doesn't know what's wrong, he insisted on leaving so early, and he didn't even have a good breakfast!"

"Oh..." Lu Xiaoshu smiled and left. Although he felt a little regretful that he was not sent to him, but after thinking about it, maybe he had something important to do. Aren't they all men like this? Zhou Shizhi is the same, saying that the wind is the rain!

Lu Xiaoshu quickly put this matter behind him, and leisurely ran between the two parents, living a leisurely life. Especially when she heard that the weather is warm in spring and Lu Qi will also come to Beijing, she is even happier!

The Lantern Festival passed in a blink of an eye, and the weather is getting warmer every day. One day, Liao Yuanyuan suddenly came to Lu Xiaoshu and asked her to go out for a stroll.

"Are you familiar with Wang Yihui, the princess's sister? In fact, she asked me to come to you today, and insisted on meeting you at the Zhuyun Teahouse! I couldn't refuse, so I had to come. But if you don't want to go, I will Tell her clearly." Liao Yuanyuan truthfully told her her intentions.

"Princess Concubine's sister?" Lu Xiaoshu tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "I have met once as a guest at two or three wives' homes in the first month, but I'm not familiar with you! In this capital, besides you, I have nothing to do with you. Those noble ladies don't get along very well, as if they are not familiar with each other!"

Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help being surprised: "Okay, why does she insist on meeting me?" Second Miss of the Wang family? A pretty and proud face immediately appeared in Lu Xiaoshu's mind. She has always hated such a woman.

If it weren't for Liao Yuanyuan's face, she would really be too lazy to go to such an appointment.

"Since she wants to meet me, I'll just go and meet her!" Lu Xiaoshu said with a smile.

Liao Yuanyuan nodded and smiled, "Yes", and said to her: "This Second Miss Wang has been spoiled since she was a child, and she is also the daughter of the Crown Princess. Now her temper is getting better, I don't know whether she wants to do it with you." What, you should be careful."

Lu Xiaoshu was very grateful that Liao Yuanyuan could tell her this, so he nodded and smiled, "I know, I just don't provoke her!"
