Chapter 15 (Heavy Rain)
her mother-in-law.it was the father-in-law of the pony. In addition to rewarding 12000 yuan of silver, Emperor Jingshun also gave two cases of jewelry, silk and satin, and rouge gouache, each of which...the closer the carriage is to the foot of the hill, the more rough the road is, and the more bumpy it is.
Chen Jingzong finally helped Huayang put on the silver chain pearl earrings on his right ear again. Just now he thought the pendant was in the way and took it off.
he sat upright and looked at Huayang with a red face, which made him angry and charming.
Princess pays attention to decency, and in order not to show traces when getting out of the car, she would rather endure cooperation than struggle for half a point, so that the pearl hairpin on her head is not messy, and her plain white dress does not have any more creases that she should not have.
is like the fairy who suddenly lost her power and was fixed in shape, allowing ordinary people to get close to her and do whatever she wanted.
Chen Jingzong picked up the fan she had left on her couch, and while making amends to fan her, he meditated that he would try it again in the car after the year.
Huayang didn't bother to look at him and slightly picked up the curtains next to him to let the wind in and blow away the malaise in the carriage.
behind the car was the clatter of horses rode by four guards. Huayang recalled for a moment and was sure she didn't make any sound.
the heartbeat slows down and the scalding on his face cools off.
with a "whew" from the coachman, the carriage stopped.
"Princess, there is a mountain ahead."
Huayang looked at the cupboard on Chen Jingzong's side, and her curtain hat was on top of it.
they didn't bring a servant girl on this trip, so what the servant girl did naturally fell on Chen Jingzong.
Chen Jingzong picked up his cap and put it on for Huayang.
A hazy white veil fell lightly, blurring the princess's face, and only a pair of red lips still showed bright color through the tulle.
Chen Jingzong finally looked at her lips, got out of the carriage first, and then turned to help her.
when she left the car, the fresh morning breeze surrounded Huayang in an instant. She took a few sips of fresh air, and looking ahead, there was a low mountain full of trees, with winding stone steps and several tombstones revealing the edges of vicissitudes.
Chen Jingzong told the rickshaw pullers and guards to stay where they were. He held a bamboo basket containing sacrificial incense paper and other things in one hand and Huayang's arm in the other, and the couple walked forward side by side.
Huayang found that the stone steps here were unexpectedly clean, so he asked, "have all the mountains behind your house built such stone steps"
Chen Jingzong: "how is it possible those are barren mountains. This one is reserved for families to bury their loved ones. They often come to worship and specially build several stone steps."
just as Hua Yang was about to speak, a black bug with wings came buzzing over, which frightened her into grabbing Chen Jingzong's arm and hiding behind him.
with a big wave of his hand, Chen Jingzong patted the flying insects into the grass by the side of the road.
Huayang no longer has the leisure to enjoy the scenery. I just want to pay homage to the old lady and go down the mountain.
the mountain breeze occasionally blew her veil, and Chen Jingzong saw her frowning tightly and pale, which was a kind of dislike that he was very familiar with.
he mocked: "I told you the old lady wouldn't mind what we do. You have to be fastidious and suffer from climbing for nothing."
Huayang has its own thoughts.
the Chen family is regarded as a wealthy man on this side of Shiqiao town. Coupled with the fact that Chen Tingjian rose step by step after winning the top prize, the people on this side of the old house renovated the area of their ancestral house and occupied a small hill alone, and several tombs were neatly paved with slates, which made it convenient to clean them up.
from the foot of the mountain to the Chen family's ancestral grave, the couple only climbed the mountain for about a quarter of an hour. Rao was like this, and Huayang was so tired that he was out of breath.
Chen Jingzong took off her curtain hat and said, "No one can see you in a place like this, except for a group of ancestors in our family."
Huayang looked back at the mountain road when it came, and no longer forced it.
Chen Jingzong told her to have a rest. He swept several tombstones with a broom, and then placed incense paper, food sacrifices and other things in front of the old lady's new grave.

when everything was ready, he turned around and called Huayang, "come here."
Huayang walked up to him, looked at the hard slate under his feet, and frowned.
growing up, except for the royal ancestor worship, she really never knelt down several times, and most of her parents saluted to greet her.
and this kind of hard slate is very uncomfortable when kneeling.
Chen Jingzong knew what she was thinking at a glance. He snorted, then took off his shirt, folded it and spread it on the floor several times.
Huayang smiled. This man is rough and very good at taking care of people.
when she knelt down, she heard Chen Jingzong say to the old lady's tombstone, "Grandma, you are blessed to have a princess and granddaughter-in-law to worship you. There are so many old ladies in the world that you can be treated in the same way as the dignitaries in the imperial mausoleum."
with this naked teasing, Huayang reached out and pinched his waist. As a result, Chen Jingzong was slightly taut, and her lean waist failed to make her pick up the meat.
"Don't move your hands in front of your grandmother." Chen Jingzong reprimanded him solemnly.
Huayang: …
Chen Jingzong lit three incense sticks and handed them over.
Business matters. Huayang took the incense and looked at the old lady's tombstone. She closed her eyes and whispered, "Old lady, Sun's daughter-in-law is sincerely here to mourn for you. She has never thought of breaking the etiquette law. They are all scoundrels and force me."
Chen Jingzong:.
he did force her to eat some things, did he force her to eat those wild smells
"although the horse has repeatedly broken the precepts, I know that he is sincerely filial to you."
Chen Jingzong was stunned, and his eyes fell on her white face, her long, thick eyelashes drooping, pious as if fragrant in front of the Buddha.
"my granddaughter-in-law came over today to make amends to you, and on the other hand, she implored the old lady to have a spirit in heaven to bless the horse's safety in this life, not to worship and seal her life, but to seek good luck and a long life."
at this point, Huayang opened his eyes with a hint of water in his eyes.
ignoring Chen Jingzong, who froze to one side, she solemnly worshiped three times and put incense into the incense burner.
Chen Jingzong: "you."
Huayang just put on his curtain hat and said faintly, "go back."
because of her abnormality, on the way back to Chen's house, Chen Jingzong was no longer distracted and only looked at her a few times.
.
after offering incense to the old lady, Huayang returned to her usual life, reading or practicing calligraphy during the day, and occasionally asked Chen Jingzong to serve him in the evening.
it tastes good, but it's unbearable to come here every night, so Huayang won't just spoil Chen Jingzong.
in a twinkling of an eye, it is late June.
Chen Jingzong was sleeping soundly that night when he suddenly heard a cry of surprise from Huayang, and people pasted it on him in panic.
Chen Jingzong turned over and picked up Huayang, strode out of the bed, and then put Huayang down. He quickly examined her hair and her back. "did the bug climb to her body"
first make sure that the bug is not on her, then he goes to bed to check, and must be beaten to death.
Huayang shook his head and threw himself into his arms: "without bugs, it was a nightmare."
Chen Jingzong smelled the speech, relaxed, patted her on the shoulder, beat her up, picked her up and sat down on the bed.
"what nightmare, tell me"
it is rare that she is so weak, and Chen Jingzong's voice is softer than usual.
Huayang pillowed his shoulder and shook his fingers. "I dreamt that there was a heavy rain here, and the next day, the river in front of the town flattened, and all the yellow water flooded the town."enery and forget to return.Chen Jingzong quickly had dinner and gargled, then went to the garden to look for Huayang.Huayang is on this side of the Peony Garden.there is a flower-watching pavilion in...
