The rain and snow are falling, and my heart is asleep.

In the quiet dusk, our carriage returned to Yilan Villa in Bishan. It was still as quiet as before, and the streets were washed clean by rain. However, in such cleanliness and silence, there was a cold feeling of the arrival of winter.

At the gate, Shui Xiu and Caiwei had already stood there waiting.

Qinghan helped me get off the carriage, and an oil-paper umbrella immediately reached the top of my head. It was Caiwei. She looked at me with a crying expression on her face and said with a sob: "Madam..."

I smiled slightly.

Escaped from the war-torn capital, although I saw that they were all safe and sound now, I also knew what they had experienced at that time. Caiwei was still very young, but her face, which was originally full of vitality and even vigorous, also showed a kind of mature fatigue that she should not have at this age.

And Shui Xiu—she slowly walked down the stairs and walked up to me, and I even saw a few strands of white hair on her temples.

My throat choked and then I whispered: "Are you all okay?"

No one spoke. After a while of silence, they nodded silently again.

Actually, at this time, I don’t know what else I can say. A big battle will destroy everyone’s body and mind. Meeting each other again is like a different life, only looking at each other speechlessly.

Pei Yuanhao also walked down from his carriage. Shui Xiu and the others went to see him, but there was no such complicated etiquette as before. Everyone stood at the door, and the rain became more and more urgent. Qinghan reached out to take the paper umbrella from Caiwei's hand, and then said, "Go in first and talk."

So, everyone walked into Yilan Villa silently.

The scenery here is the same as when I left, and there was no change in even the people who served it. The place in Bishan seemed to have stopped flowing. As soon as I walked in, even the sound of rain exuded a sense of tranquility, and my heart slowly calmed down.

This time I came back, of course, it was different from where I lived before.

Qinghan let me live in his room.

This is the deepest part of the other courtyard, the quietest and safest. It is close to the garden, and behind it is the magnificent landscape of the backyard. I don’t ask where he wants to live. Although he once said that before getting married, he didn’t want to cross that boundary with me, but after my mother left, I could only hold him all these days by holding him, and I could only sleep. In the secular view, there are other guidances for men and women, and at this time, I don’t want to abide by it.

I just want to guard him.

So, Susu followed me to rest. Caiwei accompanied me to this room. After taking a shower, she sat in front of the dressing table and combing my long wet hair. Caiwei still had a happy smile on her face and asked, "Madam, are you and Mr. Liu———are you almost?"

I looked at her from the mirror, and didn't say anything, but just smiled tiredly.

She said, "It would be great if this is the case."

“…”

"Young Master Liu is a good person."

I smiled helplessly and said, "You are not so gossipy in normal times. Why did I start chewing as soon as I came back this time?"

Caiwei paused for a moment before looking at me carefully from the mirror and said, "Because, I feel that my wife is very tired and seems to be very sad when she comes back this time."

“…”

"Mrs. After so many bad things, it's time to treat herself well."

“…”

I didn't expect her to say something, but I didn't expect that after she said so sincerely, I had already calmed down a lot in the past two days, but when I heard her words, my eyes turned red.

Caiwei was frightened and hurriedly said, "Madam, what's wrong with Madam? Did I say something wrong?"

Seeing her panic, I turned my head lightly, swallowed the sourness that surged up, and said, "It's nothing, I might just be the wind blowing into my eyes."

Caiwei then breathed a sigh of relief and continued to comb my hair with a comb.

I said, "How are you all okay when you come here these days?"

Caiwei said, "I'm fine. Brother Du and his people have been protecting us since I came out of the capital. Later, when I entered Xichuan, Mr. Liu's people came. They picked us up here and took a lot of refugees to settle them. Everyone has calmed down these days."

"Shui Xiu, isn't it okay?"

Speaking of this, I felt her hands stagnate.

"What's wrong?"

"Sister Shuixiu...is not very good."

"What's wrong with her?"

"She, her child, is gone."

I was shocked and looked back at her. Caiwei also had a look of sadness on her face, and she said, "In the capital, when we left--"

Speaking of this, her eyes turned red and she couldn't even talk.

And when I thought about it, I also understood.

No wonder I just saw Shui Xiu, and Du Yan didn't reveal a word to me. Maybe this matter was indescribable to him.

I sighed and said, "Hope, they can come out sooner."

"Um."

After a while, my hair was combed and it was still a little moist. I got up and prepared to walk out. Caiwei hurriedly stopped me: "Madam just came back, so let's have a good rest."

"I slept in the carriage for a long time today, and now I just want to walk around and stretch my muscles and bones."

"But it's still raining outside, your hair is not dry, and it will cause a headache if the wind blows."

I smiled faintly and said, "How could I be that delicate? Besides, I won't run into the wilderness, just walk in the corridor."

She then felt relieved, and told me a few more words to pack up her things.

I left this room and walked outside. The rain was still falling. The winter in Xichuan was already cold and wet. Such a rain fell, which was colder than the heavy wind and snow in the north. Fortunately, I was wearing a thick fur and my fluffy fur touched my face lightly, giving people a warm and gentle feeling, and I didn't feel that it was too cold.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Under the corridor, looking at the misty drizzle outside, it makes my heart quieter.

After walking for a while, I felt a little tired. I sat on the bench under the corridor and quietly looked at the scenery in the garden. At this time, I saw a small tall building not far from the wall.

In this area, there are not many wealthy families, all of which are just enough to feed and fed, and there are no small buildings that have been brought to you. And I remember when I came here before, I never saw such a small building in that direction.

Moreover, in the misty rain, it seems that a figure can be seen flashing by.

I was watching the small building bewildered, and footsteps sounded around me. When I looked back, I saw that some servants came in from outside. Their clothes were still the same as before, but there was a bunch of numbness on their arms. After I walked in, I replaced the red lanterns under the eaves with white lanterns, and white cloth was hung on the pillars and eaves.

I hesitated for a moment and then understood.

Soon, the yard became solemn. After they finished the arrangement, they left quickly. When they reached the door, they stopped one after another: "San Master."

Looking back, it was Qinghan who walked in.

He glanced around and nodded and let all the people go out. Just as he was about to walk to the other side of the room, I called out softly: "Qinghan."

He turned around and saw me sitting in the porch and hurried over: "Why are you here to get some air?" He reached out and touched my hair: "The hair hasn't dried yet, do you want to have a headache at night?"

I said lightly: "I am not that delicate. I am too bored in the car during the day. Now I want to come out and loosen it."

Hearing me say this, he didn't say anything, but just walked over and sat at the upper vent to help me block the wind and rain.

I smiled softly.

He looked up at the white banner under the eaves and said, "Did you ask them to prepare?"

Qinghan said: "Originally, as Mrs. Yan, there should be a glorious gift. But I know that you don't want this matter to be too much, so it's only us--"

I nodded.

Indeed, as an empress, such a memorial is very shabby, but I think my mother doesn't care about these things. Perhaps, she cares more about not anyone remembering her.

For her, being able to leave quietly may be the best comfort.

Qinghan said again: "I will accompany you to fast and eat vegetarian food these days, but if your body can't bear it, tell me. You must know that no matter how much sad you are, it's not as good as you."

I nodded: "I get it."

He looked at me gently, and a gust of wind blew the raindrops on my face. He reached out to wipe me, and brushed away the hot wetness at the corner of my eyes. I pinched his wrist, snuggled over, and leaned in his arms.

The two of them sat here quietly, the rain was still drizzling, but there was an inexplicable, warm and quiet feeling.

The sky slowly darkened.

Although the walls of Yilan Villa are very high and there is almost no room outside, you can also see the lights lit by the households in the twilight. Especially on such rainy nights, you can even clearly see the raindrops being blown by the wind, wrapping around the falling trajectory. But when I raised my head and looked at the sudden appearance of the building before, I found that it was still dark and there was no light.

Isn't anyone living there?

But just now, I seemed to see someone walking around.

Feeling my eyes kept looking outside, Qinghan also looked back and said, "What's wrong?"

Then, I saw the small building.

I asked, "Qinghan, why did a small building suddenly appear there? Whose family belongs to?"

“…”

He did not answer.
