Lian Xin brought the hot water and walked into the house. She saw Tang Chen, with a big belly, frantically searching around in the house. "Madam, what's wrong?"
Tang Chen pulled Lian Xin in panic and asked, "Where's Wang Yanzhou? He was here yesterday, how come he suddenly disappeared? Have you seen him? Have you seen him?"
Seeing this, Lian Xin hurriedly helped Tang Chen sit aside and comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam. I'll go find her right away, right away!"
Lian Xin had just left when Tang Chen could no longer sit still in the room. He just stood up and was about to check other rooms when he was suddenly hugged from behind.
Tang Chen was stunned for a moment, then he grabbed the hand and bit it hard: "...Where the hell have you been? Don't you know I'm worried!"
Wang Yanzhou closed his eyes and gently hugged Tang Chen, as if he was holding a rare treasure. "When I woke up, I felt very uncomfortable, so I went to take a shower."
Tang Chen threw himself into Wang Yanzhou's arms, smearing all the snot and tears on his face onto his chest: "Really? Don't do this again next time!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
After a moment of tenderness, Tang Chen suddenly remembered that there was something very important he hadn't asked him. Jiang Wangjiu had previously said that after the poison was cleared, there would be some residual effects, and he didn't know what was happening to his body. "By the way, there's one more very important thing. Do you feel anything wrong with you, or if you're feeling unwell?"
Wang Yanzhou shook his head gently to indicate that he was fine, then his eyes darkened and he hugged Tang Chen again:
"That day, I really didn't want to, I'm sorry..."
Tang Chen took a moment to react before she realized what Wang Yanzhou was talking about. She had thought that he wouldn't remember what happened when he was poisoned. "You...it's okay. I, the princess, will forgive you. But this won't happen again."
...Hua Wuxin has the habit of getting up early, or rather, since that person left, the night has become a torturous time for him.
I had wanted to go out for a walk early in the morning while the town was quiet, but when I opened the door, I saw Wang Ruo sitting alone in the yard with scattered wine bottles at his feet.
Hua Wuxin was worried that she would catch a cold if she fell asleep outside after drinking too much, so he simply walked over with a purple clay teapot filled with tea, and asked with a smile, "It's rare, our Wang Ruo also has unhappy moments, why is she drinking alone so early in the morning?"
Wang Ruo turned around, her eyes slightly red as she looked at him, shaking the wine jug in her hand, and said, "If you have nothing else to do, how about having a drink with me?"
When Hua Wuxin heard this, he quickly shook his head and said, "I can't drink with you. I'd rather have tea with you."
Wang Ruo raised her head and drank the cold wine in the jug in one gulp. Suddenly, tears flowed without warning. "It's been so long, and last night was the first time I dreamed of him. He was standing right in front of me so vividly. I, you know? It was as if I could really feel his presence. Is it possible that he's still alive?"
Hua Wuxin felt a sudden pain in his chest, snatched the wine jug from her hand, and threw all the remaining jugs outside the courtyard wall. "...I told you not to drink so early in the morning, and look at you, you're already talking nonsense."
Wang Ruo burped and asked, "Where's the wine?"
Hua Wuxin supported her and was about to take her back to the house, while replying: "I've been busy for a few days and just went to bed. Let's talk about it later if you have anything to say."
Wang Ruo said dazedly, "Yanzhou is fine now, and my niece-in-law is also safe. I am not interested in the affairs of Qingliang Valley and Liang State. I want to go back to Bugui Peak with Wangjiu to see him. Do you want to come with us?"
"……good."
Wang Ruo raised her head and laughed a few times with tears on her face. Then her expression suddenly became very sad: "I haven't seen him for so many years. I don't know if he will blame me."
Hua Wuxin comforted him frankly, "He even gave you his life. How could he blame you for such trivial matters?"
After Wang Ruo shook off Hua Wuxin's hand, she shouted towards the sky, "I'd rather it was me who died in the first place!"
Seeing that she was truly drunk, Hua Wuxin quickly went over to support her and said, "Stop talking nonsense. I'll get you a bowl of sobering soup."
"No, I want to get drunk for a while longer, a little longer..."
Sitting on the rooftop with Li Xinzhai enjoying the cool breeze, Mo Yu looked down at Wang Yanzhou's room, then raised his eyes to Hua Wuxin, who was carrying Wang Ruo back to her room in the yard. He couldn't help but sigh, imitating Tang Chen's words, "Why is there such a sour smell so early in the morning?"
Li Xinzhai sighed and said, "Yes, this smell actually overwhelms the fragrance of single dogs on us."
Mo Yu quickly drew a line between himself and Li Xinzhai and said, "No, I'm not on the same page as you. If you want to be a single dog, it's your business, but don't drag me into this."
Li Xinzhai listened to Mo Yu's words, and it seemed that there was a hint of secret. These days, Mo Yu ran outside whenever he had something to do, and almost everyone in the town had left. He suddenly said this, which made Li Xinzhai curious:
"Hey, when did it happen? Tell me about it."
Mo Yu stood up and stretched, then said, "Anyway, I'm not going with you. I'm going out for a walk and will be back soon. If there's nothing important, don't come looking for me."
Li Xinzhai lay on the rooftop, watching Mo Yu's departing figure, and said loudly, "Alas, it's true that men cannot be kept at home when they grow up!"
...Mo Yu, like a thief on guard, twisted and turned in the town before finally reaching his destination. Before he even reached his destination, he heard the sounds of children playing.
This group of children was the same small team as the little girl who had accidentally thrown the blood jade at him. These four or five children originally lived in the town, but for various reasons, they had to leave their families and get together.
The little girl was having fun, and when she saw Mo Yu, she left her friends and ran over happily, asking sweetly, "Big brother, why are you here again? Do you want to join us?"
Mo Yu's gaze was drawn to the blood jade hanging around her neck, and he quickly shook his head to sober himself up. He wiped the sweat off the little girl's face with a handkerchief, then looked at everyone and asked, "I was bored, so I came out to play with you guys. What were you guys playing?"
The little girl pulled Mo Yu and said, "We are playing shadow-stepping. Big brother, come join us!"
When Mo Yu heard this, he said excitedly: "Great, great, I've only seen others play this, can you teach me?"
"Okay, okay, here are the rules..."
