Chapter 1398 You really came
"I'm not going!"
Qi Yun immediately raised her voice, "We wear clothes when we play, unlike them, they're shameless."
"You didn't even know what clothes were before you became a spirit, how dare you say that?" Song Chunxue stood up. "I'm going to buy a few outfits. I heard the newest fabrics in the capital are very nice. I'll have a tailor make me two sets."
“Okay, I’ll buy them for Master.” Qi Yun looked down at his own clothes. “I should also get some new clothes made. Please help me choose a couple of outfits, Master.”
Song Chunxue remained silent; she refused to have anyone buy her clothes.
But when she entered the fabric shop and saw such beautiful fabrics, Song Chunxue couldn't help but feel regretful that her third and second sisters wouldn't be able to wear them.
So, as she picked and chose, she picked some for her fourth sister, Hongying, Mulan, and several granddaughters, making the shopkeeper beam with joy.
“This gentleman has excellent taste. These are all new fabrics; they will look very nice when worn out. Your family must have many daughters.”
Song Chunxue nodded, "That's right, Sanwa alone has four girls."
After that, I bought various jewelry and also went to a rouge shop to buy two bottles of osmanthus oil. I discovered that there were also all kinds of mixed ointments, which were small and packaged in small porcelain jars. They looked very interesting, so I couldn't resist buying about ten boxes.
Anyway, if I'm going to give it away, I'll eventually give it away.
"Alright, we can go back now." As Song Chunxue left the silversmith's shop, she looked at the sunset on the horizon. "Now is the perfect time to go."
Qi Yun was almost asleep in the chair, and was a little unaccustomed to being suddenly woken up; his legs felt very unsteady.
Master, you really can walk a lot! Don't your legs get sore?
Xie Mansion.
Xie Lingyun was greeting the guests. The neighbors who arrived late stayed to chat.
Suddenly a familiar figure walked in. She was puzzled. She had just put down the teapot when she looked up again and saw the person in front of her with a smile on his face.
"Yun'er, it's been a long time."
"Clang~ Clang~"
The teacup in his hand fell to the ground, but did not shatter immediately. It rolled over and landed upside down under the table.
Upon seeing the face before her, Xie Lingyun covered her lips, her eyes instantly filling with tears.
"Aunt Song...?"
Twenty years have left their mark on Xie Lingyun's face, with fine lines around her eyes and brows, but overall she looks much more rounded and full, indicating that she is living a good life.
She grabbed Song Chunxue's hand, initially scrutinizing the person's face, but later she hugged her and burst into tears.
This frightened the servants in the mansion who did not understand the reason, and they hurriedly sent someone to call Xie Zheng out.
Xie Zheng was playing chess with his master in the backyard when he heard the commotion. Thinking something was wrong, he quickly came to the front yard, lifting his clothes.
"Master, Miss is crying terribly, on such a joyous day..."
"It's alright. What mother doesn't cry when her daughter gets married? You go ahead with your work, I'll go check on her."
Before Xie Zheng could even reach his daughter, he saw Zhou Yunli pat her shoulder, take out a handkerchief, and wipe away his daughter's tears in front of everyone.
Xie Zheng has witnessed firsthand the life his daughter and Zhou Yunli lived at home over the years.
This scene filled him with envy.
His gaze swept past the two of them and landed on that aloof and distant face. His heart felt as if it had fallen into a thicket of thorns, and he felt a sudden, sharp pain.
But he didn't show it on his face, and walked with a calm smile. "Senior Brother Song is here. Please come in. Let's talk in the back. Let Yun Li take care of the guests."
“Yes, it’s been a long time. Leave this to me.” Zhou Yunli patted Xie Lingyun’s shoulder. “Go on.”
Xie Lingyun, holding Song Chunxue's hand, walked towards the backyard with red eyes, and then stopped.
She turned to look at her father, whose pale hair was not completely covered by his hat, a testament to the silent suffering he had endured.
She felt sorry for her father, and also for the woman who changed her destiny.
"Aunt," she grabbed Song Chunxue's arms, her voice trembling with tears, "Are you really... are you really just going to let this go?"
"Nonsense, didn't I tell you?" Xie Zheng gently scolded her. "You don't understand adult matters. Come on, shouldn't we serve tea and dishes to guests? At least we have a feast today. Go check the kitchen first."
Xie Lingyun suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly bowed to Song Chunxue to apologize, "I'm sorry, Aunt, I'll go to the kitchen first."
Watching her hurried figure, Song Chunxue was filled with mixed emotions.
"Master Song, you... you really came."
Song Chunxue turned around and recognized the gray-haired woman in front of her as Xie Zheng's sister.
"I'm sorry, perhaps I shouldn't have come today."
