Chapter 251: The End of the World and the Bright Moon at This Time
Ye Xiaoliang did not hide the fact that Jiang Minghong was beaten, nor did he intend to hide it from others. By dusk, everyone had already known it.
Because of Ye Fan's words, the county lord Zhaoping did not want to ask about the matter in Ye Xiaoliang's room. He just couldn't bear to hear that Ye Xiaoliang was not allowed to summon doctor Jiang Minghong, but he couldn't summon doctor to save Ye Xiaoliang's face in her name. He just sent Mrs. Zhou to send two bottles of jade ointment to relieve swelling and healing to Jiang Minghong.
Mrs. Xiaobin applauded her hands and felt the resentment that had been blocked in her chest for many days was wiped out, completely forgetting that Jiang Minghong was her chosen daughter-in-law.
The other wives are not concerned about their own affairs and do not care about their own efforts. Of course, even if they want to work hard, they are not qualified. They are neither legitimate mother nor biological mother.
Although Song Ruoxi felt that Ye Xiaoliang's move was too violent, he really couldn't feel sympathy for Jiang Minghong. This woman had a problem with her brain. Beating her might make her smarter, recognize her identity, restrain her spoiled temperament, make less trouble, and say less sour words.
"I heard that the fifth master did not hold back at all, and the fifth lady turned into a pig's head, with her face so swollen." Qiao Tao gestured exaggeratedly.
"Impossible. The fifth young master is not the rough man in the countryside who doesn't know his son. How could he hit the fifth lady? At most, he just slapped the fifth lady a few times, and you spread it so outrageously." Hongxiao questioned her statement.
"It's not outrageous at all. The fifth young master gave a severe blow to the fifth lady. He beat the fifth lady so hard that he couldn't move. He was not allowed to summon a good doctor to treat the fifth lady. If you don't believe it, you can go to the Muzhiyuan to see it and you will know if it's true?" Qiao Tao said.
Hongxiao sneered and said, "I don't have the time to see if it's true."
Qiao Tao saw that everyone was not convinced, and her face turned red with anxiety, saying, "Mrs. Young Madam, I didn't lie. The fifth young master really beat the fifth lady."
"I know you are not lying, they are teasing you." Song Ruoxi smiled.
"Young lady is the best. You are all bad guys, so you know how to bully me." Qiao Tao shouted with a pout.
Everyone laughed.
The voice of a maid paying tribute to Ye Shuhua came from outside the door, and everyone stopped laughing.
Ye Shuhua walked in and saw Song Ruoxi's hair fluffy, and asked, "Did you get up just now?"
Song Ruoxi closed his hair and smiled and said, "I'll get up for a while."
Everyone bowed their knees and saluted Ye Shuhua and retreated.
Song Ruoxi poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, and asked, "What's wrong with Xiao Shunzi looking for you? Why have you been there for so much time?"
"Nothing happened." Ye Shuhua took the teacup and took a sip, "What kind of tea is this?"
"This is rose honey tea, with roses, honey, milk and tea leaves added. Is it delicious?" Song Ruoxi asked with a smile.
Ye Shuhua took another sip and smiled and said, "It's delicious."
"Rose honey tea can relieve tension and relieve stress. I will make it for you to drink in the future."
"Okay." Ye Shuhua laughed, drank the tea and looked at Shichenzhong, "I'm a little hungry."
"Xiangxiu, the food comes in, the young city lord is hungry." Song Ruoxi smiled and said loudly.
Xiangxiu responded outside.
The meal came in quickly. After the two of them had supper, Ye Shuhua said, "Xiangduo, help the young lady tie her hair. Mint go and get a cloak."
"Where are you going to take me this night?" Song Ruoxi knew that he had another surprise and wanted to give her. He probably would have been going to do this for most of the afternoon.
"You will know in a while." Ye Shuhua said with a smile.
"Mysterious." Song Ruoxi was disdainful, but in her heart it felt as if she had drunk honey, she felt sweet. She went into the bedroom to comb her hair and change her clothes.
After packing up, Song Ruoxi walked out. Ye Shuhua helped her put on her cloak, took her hand, walked out of the door, and took the glass lantern from Qinghe's hand, "You don't have to follow."
Xiangduo and others stopped smiling and stood in the corridor.
After leaving Dongyuan Gate, a carriage was parked outside the door.
"Are we going to leave the city?" Song Ruoxi frowned slightly. The city gate was closed at this time. There was nothing important. It was unruly to open the city gate and leave the city.
"If you don't leave the city, let's go to Nanyuan." Ye Shuhua helped her onto the carriage.
The carriage walked for about half an hour and arrived at the east gate of Nanyuan and stopped.
Although there is no master in Nanyuan, the two officials are in charge of more than twenty servants, who are responsible for cleaning every day. There is no dust and debris in the garden, and it is clean and tidy. The sixteenth moon is round like a mirror, and the clear light of water is falling down, covering the pavilions and towers in the garden with a layer of silver gauze. The two of them are linked together and walk slowly in this beautiful scenery like a poetic and picturesque scenery.
After walking a long road, Song Ruoxi looked at him squintly, "The scenery of Dongyuan is no worse than that of Nanyuan."
"It's not for looking at the scenery." Ye Shuhua laughed, "Don't be anxious, just bypass the rockery in front and you'll arrive."
Song Ruoxi smiled and walked with him. Bypassing the rockery, his eyes lit up. In front of him was a flat lake. There were three small bottle-shaped stone towers standing with tripods. The top of the tower was like a gourd, the tower body was spherical, about two meters above the water surface, and there were five small round holes in the tower body. Candles were lit in the hollow tower body. The lights were like round moons, which were reflected in the lake, melting with the reflection of the bright moon in the sky, and there were thirty-two moons in total.
The moonlight, the lights shine together, the moon shadows and tower shadows complement each other, making a beautiful scenery of a lake where gold and water are about to melt autumn.
The moon in the sky, the moon in the lake, and the moon in the tower!
"Three Pools Seal the Moon!" Song Ruoxi was shocked. Last time she just said a few words casually, but unexpectedly he actually remembered it in his heart, and the beautiful scenery here reappeared.
"Do you like it?" Ye Shuhua asked softly with her shoulders.
"I like it." Song Ruoxi turned around, tiptoed, and pecked his lips, "Senior brother, thank you."
"Yingying, don't say thank you to me." Ye Shuhua lowered her head and pecked her lips. "Yingying, just remember what you are happy, don't remember what you are unhappy."
"I will not be unhappy about the words and deeds of those outside." Song Ruoxi looked at his bright eyes and his smile was as charming as a flower. "As long as we are a couple, they are just clowns. It is not worth fearing, I will not pay attention to them."
Ye Shuhua smiled and took her hand, "Yingying, let's go to the lake to enjoy the moon."
Song Ruoxi saw a small boat tied to the weeping willow trees by the lake, and asked with a smile: "Can you row?"
"Sure." Ye Shuhua got on the boat first and stretched out her arms.
Song Ruoxi rushed into his arms and asked him to carry her into a boat.
The boat swayed for a while, Song Ruoxi couldn't stand steadily, and he grabbed his sleeve tightly and said, "I don't know how to water. You have to be careful to do it, don't take the boat over."
"I rowed very steadily and would not capsize, don't worry." Ye Shuhua laughed and helped her sit down.
Ye Shuhua sat down opposite her, picked up the oars, stirring up the silver light of the lake, sparkling with the waves. Song Ruoxi reached out to tease the lake water. The lake water in August had a little coolness and said, "Rafting on the lake to enjoy the bright moon, my heart wandered with the lake water."
Ye Shuhua rowed the boat to the middle of the three towers, stopped, took out a jade flute, and stood across his lips, and the music sounded melodiously. It was a song "The Phoenix Emperor Flying". The Phoenix Emperor Flying, circling its feathers. I wish to join you in hand, the heaven and earth soar together, and the world is bustling in the world, with the mountains and flowing water, the most beautiful song of the Phoenix seeking the Phoenix.
Song Ruoxi was moved with tears in his cheeks, and he sang softly in the song: "There is a beautiful lady in the boudoir, and the room is close to the house and poison my intestines. Why do you get a mandarin duck with your neck? Hu Jie is flying together! The emperor is following me, and I have to support my tail and be a concubine forever. Friendship and heart are harmonious, who knows each other at night?"
Just as the couple was rafting on the lake and were in love, on a tall building in the city, someone was holding a pottery and playing a song "Autumn Night Song" at the bright moon. The Buddhist Palace, the evening bell; the sound of the cicadas in the setting sun was sent. The half-column cool moon and half-curtain wind were the most affectionate guests.
Where is the tower, the sound of the song is so sad? The mountains are towering, covering the dreams of longing. A thread of love, several obsessions, who will pass on the paper's thoughts? Can the beauty be safe?
It was already late at night, and the moon gradually settled westward. Ye Shuhua and Song Ruoxi returned hand in hand.
In the red tent, a pair of mandarin ducks are full of beautiful rooms.
The tall buildings outside the city, under the shadow of the moon, can't sleep alone.
The next day, the autumn sun was bright, the sky was as blue as a mirror, and thin clouds floated in the air. Jiang Minghong did not go to Danning House to pay tribute to the Lord of Zhaoping County. Everyone knew that her nose was so blue that she was not easy to see, but they didn't care, but they didn't expect that in the afternoon, news that Jiang Minghong had committed suicide by hanging her beam.
Song Ruoxi was a little confused when he took a nap. When he heard the explosive news, he was completely scared to wake up, "Are you dead?"
"I'm not dead, I'm rescued." Qiao Tao said.
Song Ruoxi sighed lightly. Jiang Minghong hated her, but she would not die. Beating maids and scolding concubines was considered ordinary, but Jiang Minghong was the legitimate wife. When Ye Xiaoliang beat her like this, she felt that she had lost all her face and had no shame to meet others, and she was in a state of death. She was both pitiful and sad.
"The fifth lady is a bit too arrogant. People in the countryside often say that the horses bought by their wives are ridden by others. If they are beaten by men, they will seek death and all the peasant women in the countryside will die." Hongxiao said.
"Mrs. Fifth Lady is not a peasant woman from the countryside, she has a thin skin." Lu Xiu handed the goat milk soup to Song Ruoxi, "Mrs. Young Madam, it's no longer hot, you can drink it."
Song Ruoxi took the bowl, drank the goat milk soup, frowned and asked, "Young Master Wu, can you go back to the yard?"
"The fifth young master has returned to the yard and summoned a good doctor over." Qiao Tao said.
"Did the lady go there?"
"Madam didn't go there, I sent Zhou's mother to go there." Qiao Tao shook her head, "Madam Binfang did not go there, nor did she send anyone to go there."
"Does the young lady plan to go over and see the fifth lady?" asked the silkworm.
"If I go over to see her, she will definitely think I'm going to see her joke." Song Ruoxi looked calm, "I'd better ask the wet nurse to bring two ginseng to see her."
Ouyang smiled and said, "It is a blessing for me to be able to run errands for the young lady."
Song Ruoxi asked Xiangxiu to take the key and open the warehouse and pick out two branches of ginseng.
Ouyang changed his clothes, took two little maids, and went over to see Jiang Minghong, and when he entered the door, he smelled a smell of medicine.
Jiang Minghong was half lying on the bed with a veil on her face. Ye Xiaoliang sat in the room, his face calm and he could not see any joy or anger. Ouyang greeted the two of them, expressed his intentions, and presented the brocade box containing ginseng.
Ye Xiaoliang stood up with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law is intent."
Ouyang said a few irrelevant words and was about to leave. Jiang Minghong, who had not spoken out, suddenly said, "Mom Ouyang, please go back and hand me a message to Sister-in-law Yuxian and ask her to come tomorrow."
Ye Xiaoliang turned around, stared at her coldly, and asked in a deep voice: "What are you going to do?"
"I am recuperating in the room and can't go out. Please ask my sister-in-law to come over and chat to relieve her boredom. Isn't that okay?"
Before Ouyang could speak, Ye Xiaoliang smiled and said, "Mom Ouyang, she is so ill that she is talking nonsense. Mom doesn't have to care, please go slowly."
Ouyang owed his body and walked out the door. Before he could go out, he heard Ye Xiaoliang say coldly: "My son Jiang, who do you think you are? He spoke arrogantly and asked the young lord lady of Dengying City to come to relieve you."
Ouyang returned to Shuyuyuan and told Song Ruoxi the whole story.
Song Ruoxi was speechless. Jiang Minghong was really not worthy of sympathy. As expected, there must be something hateful about a pitiful person.
That night, Ye Shuhua came back very late. Song Ruoxi was already sleeping in a daze. He felt him lying beside her, with a familiar smell lingering on the tip of his nose. He didn't open his eyes, and his hands and feet were drilling into his arms with the ground, muttering, "Why did you come back so late?"
"I woke you up." Ye Shuhua hugged her gently and said apologetically.
"I originally wanted to wait for you to come back, but I fell asleep unknowingly." Song Ruoxi rubbed in his arms.
Ye Shuhua kissed her face and smiled and said, "It's okay, if you are sleepy, you should go to bed, don't wait for me."
"Xiao Shunzi said you were out of the city, what are you doing outside the city?" Song Ruoxi asked.
Ye Shuhua hesitated for a moment and said, "I went to meet a friend who came from afar."
Song Ruoxi sniffed hard, "You smell of wine."
"I've gone to have a few drinks." Ye Shuhua pulled the quilt, "It's very late, go to bed!"
Song Ruoxi yawned and didn't ask any more questions.
Ye Shuhua looked at her pure sleeping face in a daze, and she hadn't been asleep for a long time.
