The next day, it continued to snow heavily.
When Luo Qingzhou woke up, the sky outside the window was still dark.
From the inner room came the sound of the mother and her two daughters breathing evenly.
Last night he wanted to find a deserted place to comfort the crying Chanchan, but was interrupted by the girl Bailing.
Thinking that everyone might have to get up early today, he had no choice but to go back here and lie down on the couch to sleep.
I slept for only an hour.
Outside, it was just dawn.
The wind blew the snowflakes, flying under the eaves, making a humming sound; occasionally, the accumulated snow fell from the branches, making a soft "pop" sound.
The whole mansion was exceptionally quiet.
Luo Qingzhou lay down for a while, took out the communication certificate, and saw that Zhu Yan had sent another message, so he could only reply: "Senior, let's talk in the evening. I have to get up early to study."
At this moment, a slight sigh suddenly came from the inner room.
Song Ruyue woke up, and seemed to think about what happened yesterday and what they said last night, and was worried alone again.
The lazy voice of Miss Qin Er, who had just woken up, also sounded softly: "Mother, aren't you going to sleep anymore?"
Song Ruyue sighed again: "Wei Mo, mother had a nightmare last night, and I don't know if your father can come back today."
Miss Qin Er comforted her softly, "I will be back, mother, don't worry too much."
The mother and daughter talked quietly for a while.
Song Ruyue sat up and said, "You are weak, continue to sleep, mother is about to get up, maybe your father has come back."
Miss Qin Er did not persuade her any further and said softly, "Mother, please wear more clothes. It's cold outside."
Song Ruyue got out of bed, put on her clothes rustlingly, and whispered, "You sisters should sleep a little longer. You don't have to worry about the family affairs. I and your father are here to take care of it. Tell Qingzhou not to worry, just let him concentrate on his studies. Even if he can't pass the imperial examination in the future, he can become a teacher. Our Qin family will have many descendants in the future, and they will all rely on him for their education."
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Mother, you are thinking too far ahead."
Song Ruyue tied her belt and said, "Not far at all, Weimo, how do you feel after taking the medicine this time?"
Miss Qin Er said, "I feel much better. I was caught in the snow in the courtyard yesterday, and I haven't coughed anymore."
Song Ruyue whispered, "Then try it quickly. If you and Qingzhou don't have your wedding night, you can't be considered a real couple. Maybe when you get pregnant, your illness will be cured immediately. Mother also had chest tightness and chest pain at first, but after she got pregnant with you, these symptoms disappeared quickly. It's really magical..."
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Really?"
Song Ruyue walked to the dressing table, sat down, picked up the comb, combed her hair and said, "Of course it's true, why would mother lie to you. Anyway, you should try it quickly, while you are still healthy, get pregnant quickly, don't wait..."
She suddenly stopped talking and said with a smile: "I guess Qingzhou is also very anxious. Which man can bear it if such a beautiful woman sleeps next to him but cannot move?"
Miss Qin Er knew what she was going to say, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Mother is right. Brother Qingzhou must be anxious. Then Weimo will give it a try tonight."
Song Ruyue turned her head and said, "Be careful. If it doesn't work, stop immediately. Let Qiu'er and Xiaodie stay here with you tonight. Don't be stubborn. You are my mother's favorite, so you can't make any mistakes."
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Mother, hurry up and clean up."
Song Ruyue continued to comb her hair and put on a headdress, then looked at herself in the mirror, stood up and said, "Then you sisters continue to sleep, mother is leaving first."
Miss Qin Er said softly: "If Daddy comes back, remember to let Mei'er inform him."
"Know."
Song Ruyue gently pushed aside the beaded curtain, came out from the inner room, and prepared to walk directly to the door.
She glanced at the couch, then walked to the couch, helped Luo Qingzhou pull the quilt, and helped him collect the quilt that was about to fall off. Then she stood by the couch, staring at the sleeping handsome face for a while, sighed, and murmured: "This kid is also pitiful. He was wronged in Chengguo Mansion, and entered my Qin Mansion and was treated like that by your sister... He is so handsome and talented, but he suffers like this..."
Miss Qin Er said in the inner room: "Mother, please go quickly. Don't wake up Brother Qingzhou. He has to get up early to study later. Let him sleep a little longer."
Song Ruyue walked towards the door and muttered, "Ever since this kid came to the mansion, you only care about him and no longer care about your mother, humph."
After saying that, he opened the door and walked out.
Qiu'er had already gotten up. When she heard the noise, she hurried over to help her put on her shoes.
Song Ruyue stroked her head and said, "Qiu'er, you are the most sensible and diligent of all the maids in the mansion. I feel relieved when you take care of Weimo."
Qiu'er smiled and said, "Mei'er got up earlier than me and is waiting for Madam in the corridor."
Song Ruyue frowned and said with a worried look on her face: "I wonder if the master has come back. Don't let him be locked outside in the cold."
After saying that, he hurried out.
Mei'er walked out of the corridor, opened the umbrella in her hand and covered her head with it.
The master and servant left quickly.
Qiu'er closed the door and returned to her room.
Xiaodie and Zhuer were naked and still sleeping soundly.
Zhuer sleeps very late every night.
As for Xiaodie, she must have been exhausted during this period.
Qiu'er sat down at the table, picked up the embroidery on the table, continued to thread the needle, and embroidered the peony carefully.
Next room.
After Miss Qin Er saw that the room had quieted down, she called out softly, "Brother Qingzhou..."
Luo Qingzhou, who was lying on the couch, was still pretending to be asleep and did not respond at all.
Miss Qin Er said again: "Brother Qingzhou, Weimo knows that you are awake. Come over here. Weimo has something to tell you."
Luo Qingzhou listened to the noises in the courtyard outside. Seeing that the mother-in-law had really left, he got up from the couch, walked to the bead curtain, and whispered, "Second Miss, the eldest lady is sleeping inside, it's not convenient for me to go over. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. I can hear you."
Miss Qin Er stretched out her hand, pushed aside the curtain, and said softly: "Brother Qingzhou, I am sleeping soundly, come here, Weimo misses you..."
Seeing her plain clothes and her gentle and lovely appearance, Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, then pushed aside the bead curtain, walked to the bedside, squatted down and held her soft little hand.
Miss Qin Er pulled him and whispered, "Brother Qingzhou, come up..."
Luo Qingzhou quickly refused: "That won't do. The young lady is still sleeping here. If she finds out, I... um..."
Before he could finish, Miss Qin Er suddenly hugged his neck, kissed him on the mouth, and pressed her whole body into his arms.
After a moment.
Miss Qin Er let him go and whispered, "Brother Qingzhou, come up quickly and lie down with Wei Mo for a while, okay? Let's not do anything, just lie quietly and let Wei Mo take a look at you, okay?"
"Second Miss..."
"Brother Qingzhou, Weimo is so scared. I'm so scared that my family will suddenly break up. I'm so scared that something will suddenly happen to Brother Qingzhou... Brother Qingzhou, come up and stay with Weimo for a while, okay? Please..."
"But… "
"Sister is sleeping soundly, I won't wake her up. Brother Qingzhou will just lie down with Weimo for a while and then get up. No one will know..."
As she spoke, Miss Qin frowned and looked at him pitifully with a pleading look on her face.
Luo Qingzhou's heart softened, and he went into the tent and got on the bed.
The bed was huge.
Miss Qin slept in the innermost room, lying at the other end.
There should be nothing wrong with the two of them lying outside.
Luo Qingzhou lay down carefully.
Miss Qin covered him with the quilt, then hugged him tightly and said softly: "Brother Qingzhou is so nice. No matter what Weimo says, Brother Qingzhou will agree to Weimo."
Luo Qingzhou held her in his arms, gently stroked her smooth hair and said, "You are my wife, of course I have to pamper you."
Miss Qin Er looked at him tenderly, and suddenly said, "But, sister is also Brother Qingzhou's wife, and she is a formally married wife, more worthy of the title than Wei Mo. Why didn't Brother Qingzhou pamper sister?"
Luo Qingzhou was speechless for a moment, then paused and said, "She didn't give me a chance. She didn't even let me touch her, and we didn't live together. Moreover, she was cold to me all day long. Even if I wanted to pamper her, I couldn't."
Miss Qin Er chuckled and said, "Brother Qingzhou, are you blaming me for not letting you get close to me? From the tone of Brother Qingzhou's voice, he sounds so aggrieved and resentful."
Luo Qingzhou said: "No, I know something happened to the young lady, how can I blame her. And it's over, I haven't taken it to heart for a long time."
Miss Qin Er put her cheek against his neck and whispered, "Brother Qingzhou, my sister is so beautiful, are you reluctant to let her go?"
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and kissed her little face, saying, "Why are we still talking about this now? Forget it. Second Miss, I've thought about it. Whether the eldest lady is in the mansion or outside, she has no sense of existence. In fact, it's best for her to disappear. If we decide to leave, I think we can send the eldest lady and the others out first, and you and I will leave last. What do you think?"
Miss Qin Er was silent for a moment, and then said, "Brother Qingzhou, have you thought about where to go? If we go to seek refuge with the princess, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. The journey is long, and there will definitely be many checkpoints along the way. It's okay for a few people, but with so many of us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get through."
Luo Qingzhou said: "We can go hide near the Yunwu Mountains first. There is a sect there..."
At this moment, Qiu'er's voice suddenly came from the door: "Madam, is the master back?"
Luo Qingzhou was startled when he heard this. Just as he was about to slip out of bed, the door suddenly creaked open.
Song Ruyue entered the room and said, "Not yet."
Luo Qingzhou froze, not knowing what to do, when Miss Qin immediately pulled him aside and whispered, "Hide inside..."
Luo Qingzhou did not dare to hesitate. He immediately rolled over her and hid in the innermost part. He put his head in the quilt, huddled up, and stuck closely to Miss Qin inside.
"Hey, is Qingzhou up already?"
Song Ruyue glanced at the couch in surprise, then she pushed aside the beaded curtain, walked into the inner room, and whispered, "Wei Mo, are you asleep?"
Miss Qin Er immediately said, "Mother, my head hurts a bit, I'm going to sleep. My sister is still sleeping, please don't wake her up."
Song Ruyue walked to the bed and began to take off her clothes, saying, "It's so cold outside. Mother wants to sleep a little longer. Your father won't be back so early."
Miss Qin Er: "..."
As Luo Qingzhou was shaking with fear, he suddenly felt as if he was holding something in his arms. He reached out and touched it, and it turned out to be a small foot in silk stockings...
