Hua Xi stood silently for a moment, then raised his head and stepped onto the stone steps, slowly following Li Cheng into the door. When they arrived at the Chuihua Gate, Li Cheng handed the three people from Huaxi to the two mothers waiting at the door, bowed and left.
One of them, a slightly younger woman in her thirties, came over and said to Huaxi Fufu, "The girl is here. The second master has asked you to come back and ask your servant to take you directly to Lanyuan. These two will follow the elders of Wu Yushun's family. Go to Beiyuan to rest."
"I wonder what you call sister-in-law?" Huaxi saw that the clothes of these two did not look like the ones served by Mrs. Hou who came when her mother passed away. She was not serving in the inner courtyard, but she was much better than the three of them. .
"Li Xian, an official from the Nu family, is in charge of carriages and horses in the mansion."
"Oh, I'm new here. It's so late at night that the two mothers are busy." Huaxi didn't have money to reward, so she had to be polite.
"See what you said, this is our responsibility." Li Xianjia said politely with a smile. Although the girl brought back by the second master looks very different from ordinary people, she is really pretty and kind.
After entering the second gate, Mother Liu was worried and whispered a few words to Huaxi before following Wu Yushun's family and leading Dingxiang to Beiyuan where the servants lived. Li Xian's family led Huaxi through the cloister and into the inner courtyard.
Hua Xi just felt like she was following the lantern in the hands of Li Xian's family in a daze, and couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north. The only thing she felt was that the garden was really big.
After walking for about a moment, around a cluster of strange rocks, a small half-open door appeared behind.
Standing at the door was a maid of sixteen or seventeen, wearing a green satin cross-collar quilt and moonlight skirt, with a green ribbon tied around her waist. She was walking around anxiously, looking at the yard and outside from time to time, when she suddenly saw the light of fire. , hurriedly came out of the door and asked: "But sister-in-law of the Li family?"
"It's Miss Hongliu. The girl is here." Li Xian's family hurriedly took Hua Xi's arm and helped her walk to the small door.
"Girl, you're here. Madam has urged you three times. Come on, follow me in."
Just when Huaxi was wondering why Madam was calling her in a hurry, Hongliu had already reached out to take her arm from Li Xianjia's hand and helped her through the door.
When Hongliu turned around and closed the door, she said to Liu Xian's family: "Sister-in-law of the Li family, you go back first. It's a busy day, so you have to pay close attention to the matters in the outer courtyard to make sure nothing goes wrong."
Hua Xi¡¯s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the Marquis is really in trouble?
Hongliu didn't wait for Li Xianjia's reply and closed the door.
Li Xianjia frowned, and when the door was closed, he glanced at the door. Seeing the bright light inside, he did not dare to say anything, turned around and left quickly.
Entering from the small door, Hong Liu supported Hua Xi and walked through a verandah before entering the yard.
The yard is not too big, with lanterns hanging from the verandahs on three sides, illuminating the yard brightly.
Huaxi lowered her head and walked on the octagonal blue-yellow stone brick road from the main room to the main door. She glanced at both sides casually. The yard was divided into two by this small road. On her right hand was a small vegetable patch, and on her left hand was a row of There is a grape trellis, and a stone table and vines are placed under the pergola, which is quite pastoral.
Looking up, I saw two mothers and four maids standing in the yard outside the main door, each with solemn expressions.
Hua Xi quickly calmed down, sighed, lowered his eyebrows, and followed Hongliu to the door of the main room.
"Mother Wang, the person Madam mentioned has arrived." Hongliu replied to the older of the two mothers with a respectful expression.
Hua Xi thought to herself, this Mrs. Wang is probably the one who serves Madam closely.
??Mother Wang looked Huaxi up and down, frowning slightly, she looked very handsome, even with these clothes, forget it, there was no time to change at this moment.
"Girl, come with the old slave. The Marquis is seriously ill and his wife is weak. She doesn't care about the many rules. I just want to give the girl some snacks when I ask questions."
"Thank you, Mom, for the advice." Huaxi's expression remained unchanged, without any restraint or fear. She nodded gracefully, and Yingnuo just thanked her lightly.
This demeanor and demeanor surprised Mrs. Wang. Her behavior was not like that of a girl raised in a ravine. Then she thought of Mrs. Liu, who was an old man who had gone out of the house, and she felt relieved.
"Yes." Mother Wang nodded, then pushed open the door, stepped in with her front foot, and Hua Xi followed with her back foot.
There was a circle of people sitting in the hall, all women and young girls. Some looked solemn, some were sobbing quietly, and some were wiping their tears with handkerchiefs. Few of them noticed Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang. When Huaxi came in, even if he saw Huaxi's cloth dress, he was regarded as a maid of the miscellaneous envoy and didn't take it seriously.
Going around the splendid screen of mountains and rivers, six people were kneeling on the ground in the inner room. The person lying on the Sihe Ruyi bed is holding the hand of an old woman sitting on the edge of the bed with her hair full of silver threads, wearing a deep purple tapestry jacket and a plain white silk horse skirt. She doesn¡¯t know what she is saying. She just nodded her head. Behind her stood a woman in her fifties, wearing a light green floral collared blouse and hazy pleated skirt, touching her tears with a handkerchief.
Mother Wang knelt down and saluted: "Master Marquis, Madam, we are here."
Huaxi bent her knees slightly, and when she was about to salute, the old woman with silver hair spoke.
"Child, come here, come here quickly." The old woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
I think this is Mr. Hou¡¯s wife, Mrs. Xiao.
Hua Xi lowered his head and walked around the kneeling person on the ground, walked to the bed, and bowed.
"Master Hou, look, look, Xiang Wan's child is here." Mrs. Xiao took Huaxi's hand and led her to the bed. Mother Wang had a discerning eye and took a Fujian cup from the wooden rosewood cupboard next to her. Bead lamp, put it in front of the bed.
The dim light shone on Huaxi's face, softening her eyebrows that were seven points bright and three points charming. She pursed her lips and looked at the person on the bed quietly, without sadness or joy.
This is Zhenyuan Hou Mutianhe, the former Marshal of Zhengxi, his own cheap grandfather.
Looking at the messy gray hair and the wrinkled face, he has long lost the heroic appearance that he once had when he was on the battlefield.
Hua Xi shook his head secretly. His body was full of rotten air, with more air coming in and less air coming out. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to survive for a few hours.
The old man's distracted eyes seemed to be focused again the moment Hua Xi appeared, "Xiang Wan, no, don't blame me."
Mrs. Xiao next to Huaxi burst into tears, choked and speechless.
"Don't complain, mother has never complained about you." Huaxi's voice sounded like the misty mist in the mountains, floating lightly in the room.
For a time, the resentment she had buried in her heart because of what happened to Mu Xiangwan disappeared. Death is like a lamp going out. After all, he can be regarded as her relative in this life.
"You are Xiang Wan's childwhat's your name?" Mu Tianhe seemed to have regained consciousness and recognized that Huaxi was not his daughter.
"My mother named me Huaxi. I take flowers and follow the water, which means freedom." Huaxi nodded obediently and explained,
Thinking of the weak woman who had passed away many years ago, I touched her head and said, I originally wanted to call you "Hua Xi", but Xi refers to twilight and the end of the year, which is unlucky. The mother-in-law's name is "Xiang Wan", and as the sun sets, it is too late, so the daughter should not follow her mother's old path. Let's use "stream". The water flow is invisible and the flowers follow the flow. Mom hopes that you can be at ease between heaven and earth in the future.
Hua Xi guessed that maybe the name also means "falling flowers and flowing water, spring will go away", to commemorate the past relationship.
"It's Huaxi Just stay here from now on" Mu Tianhe nodded slightly, his voice gradually became lower, and he waved his hand with difficulty.
When Mrs. Xiao saw it, she hurriedly wiped away her tears without taking a closer look at the flower stream. She told Mother Wang, "Take the girl and wait outside."
Huaxi was led out by Mother Wang. Because her status had not yet been determined, it was difficult to introduce her to the female relatives outside. Mother Wang directly took Huaxi out of the main room and waited in the yard.
Instead of staying outside, Huaxi was not annoyed, but was secretly grateful. In this busy time, she really didn't know how to deal with the questions of a group of crying women.
After Huaxi left, Mu Tianhe paused for a while before taking a breath, "You have to don't don't send your children there, that house is not a good place"
¡°Dad¡ª¡ª¡± Mu Jiren, the third child, shouted, but was stopped by Mrs. Xiao.
"Prodigal thingI, I" Mu Tianhe became angry and gasped for air.
"You bastard, how long have you been angry with your father? Kneel down!" Mrs. Xiao scolded Mu Jiren and turned to look at Mu Tianhe, "Master Hou, don't worry"
Ms. Xiao was thinking that the person she had been with all her life was about to leave her forever. She was so heartbroken that she couldn't think of anything else. As long as she could make me have no regrets, nothing else mattered.
After hearing this, Mu Jixiao breathed a sigh of relief, and his body was not as stiff as before.
Mu Jizhong pretended to respond casually, then knelt straight again, lowering his eyes and thinking deeply.
Mu Jiren opened his mouth to say something else, but under Mrs. Xiao's close gaze, he finally closed his mouth angrily and his expression became even gloomier.
Mu Tianhe wanted to get angry but was unable to do so. He looked at Mrs. Xiao with wide eyes and made a weak sound in his throat.
"That's all, anyway, I hurry up, you have to guard this home" Mu Tianhe closed his eyes, and the hand he just raised dropped weakly.
"Master Hou¡ª¡ª"
"Dad¡ª¡ª"
"Grandpa¡ª¡ª"
The main room was full of cries.
Hua Xi looked up at the slightly bright sky and sighed, knowing that his wise and powerful grandfather Zhenyuan Hou Mutian and his final wife could not escape life, old age, illness and death. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com); "Dad¡ª¡ª"
