Chapter 637 Separation
Xu Miaomiao, who was not far away, also understood Xu Xi's nervousness. Seeing her like this, she looked at Lu Yun opposite and continued to speak: "Mr. Lu, Xiao Xi has already spoken and you have made it very clear. We are also very clear about your attitude. Don't make it too difficult for the two of them."
Listening to Xu Miaomiao's words, Lu Yun lowered his eyes slightly and did not speak for a long time.
He stared at that direction blankly for a moment, then turned and walked outside.
Seeing that the man had his back to her, Xu Xi dared to raise her head and look in the direction the man left.
After getting off the boat, Xu Xi dared to walk out of the cabin. Looking at the boat that was getting farther and farther away from him, he fiddled with the pipa in his hand.
Hearing the sound of the piano, Lu Yun immediately looked over and they stared at each other from a distance. They saw that it started with the sound of the piano and ended with the sound of the piano. Even though the ending was not so satisfactory, at least the two of them treated each other sincerely.
When the song ended, we arrived in the south.
Previously, Xu Miaomiao stayed in Nanxiang for one night and got to know these affectionate and righteous ladies in the brothels, but now it is time to say goodbye.
The one who was most reluctant to leave was Shaoyao. She looked at Xu Xi, then at Xu Miaomiao, as if she wanted to remember the appearance of both of them firmly in her heart and want to be as close to them as she would be for the rest of her life. Feeling a little embarrassed by being looked at by Shaoyao, Xu Miaomiao turned away jealously, walked to Mudan's side and saluted the woman.
Mudan was a prostitute. Even though she had some nobles behind her, she did not like these empty formalities. But in the end, she followed the example of others and saluted Xu Miaomiao.
"Madam Mudan, thanks to your care along the way, we are so safe. I want to thank you for helping me rescue Xiaoxi."
Hearing Xu Miaomiao's words of thanks, Mudan did not respond.
After a long while, she finally spoke: "It was not me who saved her, but you yourself. You don't need to thank me. Although I am a prostitute, I am also proud. I do admire you. Madam Xu, from now on, you must be good."
"After parting today, there is no guarantee that we will not meet again in the future. Take care, Madam Peony."
"Madam Xu, I can't bear to leave you."
As soon as Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, Shaoyao next to her immediately came over. Seeing Xu Miaomiao crying was really pitiful, Xu Miaomiao smiled, touched Shaoyao's hair, looked at her and continued to speak: "Madam Shaoyao is so lively and cute, and she has a good piano skill. She will definitely achieve something in the future. What's more, we might really meet."
"Um."
Shaoyao's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Xu Miaomiao with some reluctance. Xu Miaomiao smiled at her.
Xu Xi next to him took out a knife, and Shaoyao was so scared that she immediately said, "Sister Xiaoxi, even if we are going to fight, you don't have to commit suicide. We will definitely meet in the future."
Xu Xi smiled, took the string and walked towards his pipa. He cut off one of the strings with a knife, handed it to Shaoyao and said, "I am lucky to meet you. This string is my farewell gift to you. I hope that after we leave, your pipa skills will not diminish and the green water will flow forever."
Seeing this, the young master smiled slightly, took out the safety lock from his neck, strung it directly with the strings of the zither, hung it on his hand, and said to Xu Xi: "It is a pleasure to meet you in this life, and we will meet again in the future."
Everyone said goodbye reluctantly, and Xu Miaomiao also smiled. They would eventually have to part ways one day, and when they thought about this date, it would come so quickly.
This time, when she came to Nanbian, the most beneficial thing was not the skills she learned from Fourteenth Lady, nor the cooperation contracts signed between her and Fourth Lady, but the good fortune to meet this group of affectionate and righteous women.
After getting on the boat, only Xu Miaomiao and Xu Xi were left. They didn't plan to charter the boat, so there were other people on the boat.
Xu Xi was not as timid as before. She could stand up bravely and talk to these people. Xu Miaomiao was happy to see her like this.
The days after separation always seem so long. She can’t wait to see her children and friends. She doesn’t know if these people still remember her.
Gu Yuanniang, who was mentioned, propped up her head and stared at the white clouds outside in a daze. Xu Nianmiao behind her had already started to babble.
After seeing Gu Yuanniang sighing for the third time, Xu Qingshan couldn't help it. He put the child in his arms into the cradle, walked towards Gu Yuanniang, touched her head and said, "Why, do you miss Madam Xu and Xu Xi?"
Gu Yuanniang nodded, but then shook her head. Finally, she became a little annoyed by herself and sighed heavily: "I miss them, but there is another more difficult matter right now."
Xu Qingshan wanted to help Gu Yuan's mother share the burden, but Gu Yuan's mother was unwilling to tell him. She just stared blankly at the lotus jade pendant in her hand. She had promised Xiao Bao something before, and it had been half a month. If she didn't give it away, she might not be able to give it to the little princess when she gave birth. In this way, she would be violating Xiao Bao's wishes and deceiving him.
But how could it be an easy task to deliver this thing to your strictly guarded palace?
Now I'm afraid I can only turn to the Gu family.
Gu Yuanniang sighed and told Xiao Si, "Hurry up and prepare the gifts. I want to visit Madam Gu."
Madam Gu is her stepmother. When she followed Xu Miaomiao before, Madam Gu also said that the people in the Gu family would no longer make things difficult for her, and would not interfere in her own affairs. But now she has something to ask for, and she feels embarrassed.
The Gu family is a wine-making family. Not to mention the imperial palace, even the people of the neighboring Liang country are very interested in the Gu family's winery. Unfortunately, the grain harvest that year was not good, so they had to cooperate with Gu Yuan's mother and Cui Yuan, a large employer who specializes in growing grain, to get through that year. Now she failed to help the Gu family and had to go back to ask for help. She felt really embarrassed.
But since she has already promised Xiaobao, she must do it.
Looking at the threshold of the Gu family, Gu Yuan's mother exerted a lot of strength and finally stepped over. The Gu family was already extraordinary. If it weren't for the good growth of fruits in Bai County every year, how could they have come to this small county town?
It is also because of this that Gu Yuanniang can easily find the Gu family.
"Master, the young lady is back. The young lady is back."
As soon as they approached the two departments, Xiao Si at the door hurriedly reported inside. Gu Yuanniang was shocked and still a little nervous.
