Chapter 112: I just forgot to eat.
Song Baoyuan returned home after dark again.
As soon as I got off the carriage, the doorman came forward to greet me and handed me an envelope.
"Miss, someone brought a letter this morning, saying it's for you and must be delivered to you."
The envelope looked more wrinkled than a piece of clothing that had been worn for ten years.
Song Baoyuan was slightly confused when she took it, "Why is it like this?"
"It looked like this when it was delivered," the concierge said seriously.
Song Baoyuan didn't ask any more questions and opened the envelope as she walked home.
Fortunately, the content and handwriting inside are still recognizable.
With the help of the lamp hanging in the corridor, Song Baoyuan saw the handwriting clearly and stopped suddenly.
Qiao Yin, who was following behind her, almost bumped into her. "What's wrong, Miss?"
Song Baoyuan did not answer, her eyes fixed on the paper, her emotion undetectable.
She read every word in the letter carefully, and after a moment of stunned silence, she took the letter back and held it in her hand.
She continued walking down the corridor, and asked absentmindedly, "Is the young lady asleep?"
"My husband should be sleeping with me."
So Song Baoyuan went back to her room alone and sat in front of the dressing table for a long time.
In the letter, Ah Chao said that he wanted to go to a place where no one knew them and live the life he really wanted.
Leave those who try to tear them apart and leave the gossip.
As long as they leave the capital, there will be no more obstacles between them.
Song Baoyuan looked dazed. She reached into her makeup box and took out a cool jade pendant.
*
When I went out on weekdays, there were always two carriages parked at the door.
But today Song Baoyuan only saw the car she was going to use, and thought that the person was not on duty today. When she asked, she found out that he had already left.
She had gotten up very early, but she didn't expect him to get up even earlier. Could it be that something important happened in the Dali Temple, and it would be inconvenient for him to bring the New Year's harvest with him?
Song Baoyuan thought to herself.
In the evening, she returned home but did not see the father and daughter. Only Liu'an came back and said, "My dear, you are busy today. I am afraid you will be back late."
Song Baoyuan asked, "Why didn't Sui Sui come back?"
"The young lady can come home at any time on weekdays. My husband was worried that she would be late today, so he brought her with him."
Song Baoyuan thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Then I'll go get Sui Sui, so as not to interfere with her father's work."
"Ah?" A trace of panic flashed across Liu'an's face.
Song Baoyuan was surprised, "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Liu'an lowered his head, "I just think that Miss doesn't need to bother, and my husband can handle it."
Song Baoyuan didn't want to cause him any trouble. "No problem. Go get the lunch box and bring dinner over."
Liu'an wanted to persuade her further, but Song Baoyuan did not give him the chance.
Dali Temple.
Jiang Keyu walked out of the prison, his expression serious and his brows cold. As he walked forward, he carefully wiped away the few drops of blood that had splashed on the back of his hand with a handkerchief. After wiping, he raised his hand and sniffed to make sure there was no smell of blood.
Before he could deal with the dirty handkerchief, he first saw Song Baoyuan being led into the inner hall by Tang Yuan.
Originally, Song Baoyuan hadn't noticed him, but unexpectedly, Tang Yuan had sharp eyes and waved and shouted, "Boss!"
Song Baoyuan glanced sideways.
Jiang Keyu froze for a moment, and in panic, she stuffed the handkerchief, which she had nowhere to throw, into her sleeve.
He strode forward, but did not dare to get too close, and stopped when he was five steps away.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm here to pick up Sui Sui." Song Baoyuan looked around. "Where's she?"
"Play inside."
Song Baoyuan walked into the inner hall and caught Jiang Suisui pretending to be an adult sitting on her father's chair.
"mother!"
Song Baoyuan stepped forward and picked up her daughter. "Since Daddy has something to do, you should go home with Mom first."
"good!"
Jiang Keyu stood at the door and did not come in. When Song Baoyuan turned around, she seemed to avoid her sight unintentionally.
He felt like he should say something, but when he opened his mouth, no sound came out.
"I'm going to take Sui Sui home first." Song Baoyuan carried her daughter across the threshold. "I brought you dinner. Remember to eat it while it's hot."
"Yeah." Jiang Keyu took a half step back, "Okay."
Song Baoyuan looked at him and felt a little strange.
Jiang Keyu frowned slightly, "Anything else?"
"Yes, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you. I think..."
"If you're not in a hurry, let's talk about it after I get back." Jiang Keyu suddenly interrupted, "But I might be back late today, so let's talk about it in a few days."
Song Baoyuan: “?”
Then what did he ask.
"I have something else to do, so I won't see you off." Jiang Keyu turned and left, really afraid of what he would hear from her.
Song Baoyuan didn't understand.
Maybe there really is something urgent.
*
It was late that night, and Jiang Keyu guessed that the mother and daughter must be asleep.
But when he came back, he saw Song Baoyuan still sitting in the yard.
She was flipping through the account book intently. On her left was her musician playing the piano, and on her right was her accountant doing the accounting.
She didn't notice her at first. Jiang Keyu didn't want to disturb her and turned around silently, but was discovered by Qiao Yin.
"My dear husband is back."
Song Baoyuan looked up.
Jiang Keyu froze again, not knowing whether to leave or not.
He had no choice but to turn back and ask, "Why are you still not asleep so late?"
"I wanted to settle some old accounts as soon as possible, so it came to this point."
Ended.
Is it because you are leaving, so you want to quickly end the old people and old things?
Jiang Keyu thought.
"I have something else to tell you." Song Baoyuan said softly.
Jiang Keyu's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a sense of urgency as if a disaster was about to happen.
"I've had people go back to the mansion to clean up the rooms and rearrange the yard. I think it would be best for you to bring Sui Sui back to live there. After all, it's closer to the Dali Temple, which would be more convenient for you. Plus, there are neighbors there, so Sui Sui can have playmates, unlike here where he can only play with Ba Zhao."
Jiang Keyu's brows were getting tighter and tighter, but she was unaware of it.
Is this the instruction before leaving?
"What about you?" he asked persistently.
Song Baoyuan closed the account book in her hand and said, "I won't go over there."
Sure enough, Jiang Keyu couldn't help but tighten her grip.
"So, when do you think it would be a good time to move there?"
Song Baoyuan thought for a moment and said, "How about two days from now? What do you think?"
Two days later, isn’t that three days after yesterday?
Jiang Keyu turned sideways, as if she had gotten a definite answer at this moment.
This was not surprising, and was even a result he had expected.
But……
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Song Baoyuan asked, "Is it inconvenient?"
She was just about to say that it would be fine to do it another day, when she was not busy.
But Jiang Keyu spoke first.
He said, "Okay."
Song Baoyuan was stunned.
I didn't expect him to agree so readily.
If it were not long ago, he would have turned his face away, sulked, and muttered, "Kicking me out again."
But today he just said, okay.
There's nothing wrong with this, Song Baoyuan thought.
That's how it should be.
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest first." Jiang Keyu said as she started walking.
Song Baoyuan came back to her senses and said, "Wait a minute!"
Jiang Keyu paused.
"When you have time, can you come to the palace more often to see Chengcheng?"
Song Baoyuan was worried, "I'm afraid he'll miss home."
"good."
After Jiang Keyu finished speaking, she left.
It's like he's not listening at all.
Song Baoyuan stared blankly, still feeling that he was very strange, as if he was angry and tired.
*
For the next two days, the old house was very quiet.
Both masters were very busy and hardly ever met each other.
On the third day, two carriages stopped at the door as usual.
The two people who seem to get up earlier every day haven't left yet.
Song Baoyuan stood at the door and waited for a while. She saw Jiang Keyu coming out with her daughter in her arms out of the corner of her eye, so she didn't stop and walked towards the carriage.
As if she had noticed something, she stepped into the carriage and glanced back before lifting the curtain.
Jiang Keyu had already stepped over the threshold, but stopped and looked at Song Baoyuan with her daughter who was leaning on her shoulder.
The strange feeling came over her again, and Song Baoyuan even suspected that there was something on her body that she couldn't see.
What's that look in their eyes?
She straightened up and asked as if to greet him, "Aren't you in a hurry today?"
Jiang Keyu was silent for a moment and walked down the stairs.
"Don't worry." He suddenly said, "I will stay with Sui Sui and visit Cheng Cheng often. You don't have to worry."
Song Baoyuan: “?”
There was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Jiang Keyu looked like she wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.
Finally, he just said: "Forget it, take care of yourself and be careful on the road."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards his carriage.
Song Baoyuan followed her gaze and looked at her daughter who turned her head away.
He watched them leave first with an expressionless face.
Suddenly, he laughed.
"Miss," Qiao Yin asked from the side, "Shall we go to Qianqian Pavilion first?"
Song Baoyuan withdrew her gaze and her smile disappeared in an instant.
"No, let's go to the suburbs, to the Bishui Pavilion."
*
When they arrived at the Dali Temple, Jiang Suisui, who was obviously more energetic than his father, just got off the carriage. He jumped in first and greeted everyone one by one.
The steps in front of the Dali Temple were very steep. Before Jiang Keyu started to walk up, she heard the sound of horse hooves. It was Liu'an rushing over.
Liu'an dismounted quickly, ran to him in two or three steps, opened his mouth, and then closed it again.
Jiang Keyu exhaled, "Speak."
Liu'an lowered his head, "Miss... did go to the suburbs, in the direction of Bishui Pavilion."
Jiang Keyu also lowered her eyes and stared at her feet.
"I understand," he said.
Then walk up the stairs.
Liu'an stood there, looking at his back.
It was no different from usual, but it seemed like every step took a lot of effort.
After walking up a dozen steps, Jiang Keyumo squatted down on one knee.
"My dear!"
Liu'an hurried forward and wanted to help.
Jiang Keyu raised her hand, indicating that she was fine and asked him to step back.
"I just forgot to eat."
Jiang Keyu said indifferently.
I haven't eaten anything from yesterday to today, so I feel a little weak.
That's it.
