Chapter 355 Wait for Me
Baoya chased after her with her short legs and stood in front of Yunhua, breathing slightly.
After a moment, she opened her short little arms and hugged Yunhua.
Yunhua's new clothes smelled very good, with a light floral scent. Granny Yu started making them shortly after she took her in as her apprentice.
Every stitch and thread represents her hard work and hope.
Baoya held Yunhua in her arms for a long time without letting go. She wanted to pass on some of her good fortune to her third sister, if possible.
Brother Xiaojing has such bad luck, but nothing bad has ever happened to him when he was with me.
Maybe it really works?
The capital city is big and far away. She has been there once. It must be difficult for her third sister to be alone.
She held Yunhua tightly and refused to let go, and Qianqiong did not urge her.
Yunhua was a little helpless. She raised her head slightly and patted Baoya's shoulder: "Okay, when Third Sister settles down over there, I'll pick you up and bring you to the capital to play."
She said it lightly because she just didn't want to make her two younger sisters worry and sad.
I, a nine-year-old girl, suddenly became the owner of the Fangxian Embroidery Tower. I don’t know how many people were dissatisfied with this, especially the long scroll hanging in the Queen’s Palace.
What she faces in the future are only endless difficulties and unknowns.
"Well," Baoya sniffed and let go of Yunhua, then said seriously, "Third sister, I'm passing my good fortune to you. Everything will go smoothly for you!"
"Okay!" Yunhua reached out and touched her head.
As soon as Baoya let go, Yunyue rushed over with tears and snot.
Qianqiong was terrified, afraid that she would wipe her snot on Yunhua's clothes.
Yunhua reached out and hugged her, "Don't cry, you are one year older than Baoya, what are you doing?"
Yunyue shook her head like a rattle: "Sister, can't you just not leave? I can't bear to leave you!"
Yunhua smiled bitterly: "If I don't go, how can I visit the Immortal Embroidery Tower? This is what my mother-in-law wants, so I must go."
Yunyue fell silent, raised her head, and looked at her with tears in her eyes: "Then you must take good care of yourself. If you have any difficulties, just... write a letter! Tell Baoya and me, and we will go to help you together with the eldest brother and the second brother!"
Yunhua pinched her little face and smiled: "Yeah."
"It's getting late," Mu Jin's cool voice sounded at the door, "Master, we should leave."
Yunhua released her arms from Yunyue, and when she turned to Mujin, she tried hard to hide the expression on her face.
Aunt Qiong said that when facing the people below, you have to maintain your dignity.
"Okay." She said calmly, then picked up her skirt and walked out.
A group of young women in blue clothes were standing outside the door in an orderly manner. When they saw her come out, they all bowed and saluted her.
"Welcome the host! Welcome the old host back to Beijing!"
Yunhua was startled by the uniform voice. Qianqiong coughed slightly behind her, and then she came to her senses. With an expressionless face, she got into the sedan chair under the guidance of Mujin.
Baoya and Yunyue leaned against the door, silently watching Yunhua's figure disappear in the sedan.
Afterwards, Grandma Yu's coffin was carried out by the accompanying attendants.
"Lift the sedan!" With Mu Jin's loud singing, the team slowly moved forward.
Yunyue watched the team gradually go away, and suddenly called out to Qianqiong, "Aunt Qiong!"
Qian Qiong, who was following behind the team, paused, stopped and looked back at her.
Yunyue bit her lip and said, "Please...please take good care of your sister!"
Qian Qiong looked indifferent and did not answer, but nodded slightly, then turned around and followed the team.
Baoya returned to the yard alone.
The yard was empty at this time. Apart from a few white paper money, there were only a pile of messy footprints and a small grave mound on the snow.
The graves of the two little rabbits.
Once upon a time, they brought these two little rabbits to add liveliness to their mother-in-law's house.
But now the house is empty, even the two little rabbits are lying in the grave.
She stood in the yard, looking at the small grave, tears falling from her eyes.
Jing Zhen appeared in front of her at some point and held her in his arms.
It started snowing again without anyone noticing. Jingzhen shook his cloak and wrapped the little girl, whose shoulders were shaking from crying, tightly.
Snowflakes fell on them and then slowly melted.
…
The group visiting Xianxiulou was stopped when they passed by the academy.
The person who stopped the sedan was a child of about six or seven years old. He was holding a book in his hand, with his arms outstretched, blocking the middle of the road.
Mu Jin had no choice but to ask the sedan bearer to stop and said impatiently, "Where did you come from, kid? Go play somewhere else!"
Fang Xian ignored her and just said, "I want to see Yunhua!"
Mu Jin frowned: "There's no Yunhua here, whose child is this?!"
Fang Xian stood still and repeated, "I want to see Yunhua!"
Mu Jin's face darkened: "She is now the owner of Fangxian Embroidery Tower, not Yunhua!"
Tsk, girls from small places are always troublesome!
She was just about to wave her hand and ask the attendants to pull this boy who came from nowhere away when the curtain of the sedan chair behind her suddenly moved and Yunhua poked her head out from inside.
"Mujin, let him come over."
She had a stern face and a cold voice, but the knuckles of her hands gripping the window frame had turned white, and there was a hint of tension.
Mu Jin frowned, looked back at her, and was about to refuse when Qian Qiong spoke.
"Let him meet you, Yun... The host doesn't have many friends anymore."
Mu Jin bit her lip and then raised her hand. The two young women blocking the way in front then stepped back, allowing Fang Xian to get closer to the sedan chair.
Fang Xian strode over and glanced at Mu Jin coldly as he passed by her.
He walked to the sedan chair and handed her the book in his hand through the small window.
Yunhua took it and saw that the cover read "Thousand Character Classic", which was the book she and Fang Xian read together when she stayed overnight at Yucai Academy for the first time.
"You..." Fang Xian leaned against the window, standing on tiptoe because it wasn't high enough. "If you can't hold on, just watch..."
Yunhua looked at him with burning eyes.
Fang Xian blushed: "Reading can calm one's mind."
"Yeah." Yunhua nodded.
"You...I..." Fang Xian bit his lower lip and for the first time realized that he didn't know what to say.
"OP, it's time for us to set off!" Mu Jin urged.
Fang Xian suddenly turned around and glared at Mu Jin coldly. He gritted his teeth and said to Yun Hua, "Wait for me! When I pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar, I'll go to the capital to find you!"
"Okay," Yunhua pursed her lips, "I'll wait for you."
As soon as Fang Xian finished speaking, he was pulled away by two people on the left and right.
The curtain of the sedan chair was lowered, Yunhua's cheeks were slightly hot and her eyes were red.
She didn't expect Fang Xian to come after her and say goodbye.
The sedan chair swayed slightly as four bearers lifted it up and the team set off slowly again.
Fang Xian stood where he was, silently clenching his fists.
He will definitely go to the capital as soon as possible!
