beautiful woman returns to dream

Chapter 15

Chapter [-]

It has been raining from day to night yesterday, and the sky is still cloudy. On the tree in the yard, a few leaves are still dripping like tears.

Yi'an raised her head and stared at the spider web covered in mist without moving.On the gossip-like spider web, a moth is bound by the web, and its wings have lost their strength in the spider web.The slender web trembled, and a spider crawled out from nowhere, and quickly crawled towards the delicious prey.

Through the fine spider webs and the holes broken by the raindrops, Yi'an looked at the layers of dark clouds above. The gray-white sky was low and gloomy, and there was still white light between the clouds.

That spider is about to enjoy its delicacy. Looking at this little monster, Yi'an remembered the past with Zheng Xian, remembered their first encounter, and all the things they experienced when they were escaping the war, and even Zheng Xian every time The moment's voice and smile flashed through her mind one by one.

Now that Zheng Xian was about to leave, she was hiding here helplessly.Zheng Xian took care of her for so long, so she should say goodbye to her, but she couldn't easily say "good journey" to her.

Zheng Xian came in from outside the courtyard, came behind Yi An, and looked at her quietly.

"Being trapped by this spider web, you can't escape after all, can you?"

Yi'an said that she sensed that the person behind was Zheng Xian, but she still looked up at the above. The words seemed to be speaking to Zheng Xian, but it seemed that she was just talking to herself.

"Yi'an, I'm leaving. When your aunt recovers, go back with her. I've already explained to the people here, so you don't have to worry."

Yi'an turned around and looked at Zheng Xian. Seeing Zheng Xian looking at her, she turned and walked forward.

"Have you nothing else to say?"

"What?" Zheng Xian turned around and asked.

Yi'an looked at Zheng Xian's indifferent face, suddenly smiled coldly, and said:

"You don't have anything else to say, just leave like this? Do you want to escape with your obscure feelings? To all those who care about you, just like hunting phoenixes, ignore their hearts and deliberately ignore them, Then repent deeply? Why are you so cruel to those who care about you?"

The expression on Zheng Xian's face fluctuated, she stared at Yi'an coldly for a long while, and then said:

"I have nothing to say, and I have nothing to escape. There is also the matter of hunting phoenixes. How do you know?"

There's none?At the Huang's house in Yizhou, when I bumped into you that time, I clearly felt that when you faced me, there was something special in your eyes.Bewitched by your eyes, my heart is completely sinking for you, and now we are going to separate, but you don't say anything, is it because I got it wrong?

Even if I was wrong, did you not feel the slightest bit of my humble affection for you?Why don't you say what you really think, even if it's a small joke, I can't wait for you to say it?

"No? That's really my mistake. A person who was in trouble and thanked you for saving him is still here. It's really wrong to offend you by saying such words. I apologize to you! Now you want to Have you traveled far? Then I wish you a smooth journey ahead!"

Zheng Xian's face was solemn, she looked at Yi'an, she couldn't see what she was thinking in her eyes, then she nodded, turned and walked away.

Yi'an watched Zheng Xian leave, feeling a deep sense of loss in her heart.

"Xian, I know that what I said is too much, but I am not fair for Liefeng, and I am also unfair for myself. I know that there is too much difference in status between you and me, and I can't reach you. The reason why I want to say those thorns I just hope that in the future, you can cherish the true love that appears by your side. You can seize the opportunity of Shang Hai, but what about the true love and real people who appear by your side? Will you grasp it?

I know I can't repay you for your help, so telling you those words is another kind of repayment, Xian, have a good journey! "

Spring and summer alternate, and three years have passed in a flash. The Tang army's suppression of the rebellion finally subsided. The people of Datang were temporarily out of the dire situation, and their lives gradually returned to normal.

In a farm house in the Chaozhou countryside, a middle-aged man came in from the outer courtyard, wiped the corner, passed through the round brick door, and came to the backyard.Three rows of long wooden frames were erected on the clean space in the backyard. On the upper and lower floors of each row of wooden frames were placed large circular sieves, and inside the circular sieves were snow-white cocoons.

The man walked past the wooden round sieve and entered a large workshop with seven rooms. The hot air in the workshop shrouded the upper part of the roof.A dozen young women and middle-aged women are busy in the workshop.

Seven or eight huge open pots were neatly and equidistantly placed in this large room. Each pot was filled with water, and there were countless fat silkworm cocoons floating on the surface of the water, and each big pot was filled with water. Next to it, there are one or two running silk carts, the silk carts "squeak" and the silk threads are running; next to the cauldron and the silk carts are working girls or women.

The man went straight to a large cauldron, and said to a woman who was busy standing by the cauldron, her hands were soaked white in the cauldron:

"Miss Qin, someone is looking for you!"

When the woman heard the man's words, her subordinates did not stop and said:

"Are you here to collect the silk? You tell them that this batch of silk will have to wait for two days!"

"It's not a merchant who came to collect silk, but a woman I don't know, speaking official language." The man said.

"What's the matter, you go and take care of it, I'm busy here!"

"No, she said she must see you!"

Yi'an got off the wooden platform next to the pot, and said to the opposite side:

"Cousin, take care of this side first."

"Got it!" A middle-aged woman promised and walked over.

Yi An walked out of the workshop with the man and said:

"Qingsheng, you ask someone to carry the water, remember to travel a little longer to bring the water from Qinghe, our silk sales have just started, we can't make mistakes at this time!"

"Don't worry, we will do a good job." The man said and hurried away.

Yi'an walked quickly, put down her high rolled up sleeves, untied the white apron around her waist, came to the front yard, went up the steps in front of the main room and said:

"Who is looking for me?"

She stepped over the threshold and entered the main room, and the people standing in the main room turned around when they heard her sound.When Yi'an saw the person coming, she stopped in her footsteps, and at the same time, the expression on her face became still and frozen for an instant.

"Xian..."

After a pause, she whispered.

"Why, don't you welcome guests from afar?" Zheng Xian looked at her and said.

Yi'an recovered from her surprise: "No, it's not, oh, please sit down!"

Zheng Xian sat down on a chair beside her, and then looked at Yi'an.

At this time, Yi'an was standing on the ground, but he was a little helpless.

"I'll make tea for you!" she said suddenly.

"No need," Zheng Xian called to stop her, "Isn't there tea in this pot?"

"Then are you used to drinking this herbal tea?"

"nothing."

Yi'an poured a cup of tea from the porcelain pot and put it in front of Zheng Xian. After she sat on the other side, she said:

"I didn't expect to see you again."

"Now that the war in the Central Plains has gradually subsided and the situation has stabilized, it's very convenient for me to come back and visit you."

"How did you find this?"

"I heard that you followed your aunt back to her hometown and set up a silk reeling workshop. I rushed here after hearing that. It seems that there is business between us."

Seeing that Zheng Xian's answer was irrelevant to the question, Yi'an didn't bother to ask, and said:

"You're joking, why are you alone?"

"I asked Yufeng Feihu and the others to wait in front."

"Oh, where do you live now?"

"Inn in the city."

"When did you return to the Central Plains?" Yi An asked again.

"Three months."

"Oh."

Yi'an didn't ask any more questions. She lowered her head and stroked the skirt of her white apron with her hands. The room was silent.

"Oh! Are you hungry? I'll get you a snack..."

Yi'an said as if thinking of it suddenly, when she turned her head, she saw Zheng Xian was looking sideways at her intently, her eyes froze for a moment, then she lowered her brows and stretched out her hand to scratch her hair.

"Yi'an, I've been thinking about what you said before you left last time." Zheng Xian continued to face her and said.

"Ah?...Ah, I said those words in a moment of ignorance. Don't take it to heart. I have received so much favor from you, but when you were leaving, I spoke poorly and didn't send you off well. It can be seen that I This country girl is careless!" Yi An said apologetically.

Zheng Xian said with deep emotion:

"What you said is not wrong. Because of your words, I have a deeper understanding of myself. It turned out that I was that kind of person before, and it was your words that awakened me."

Yi An looked at her:

"So, you came here specifically to find me?"

Zheng Xian got up from the chair and turned to Yi An, and Yi An hurriedly stood up when she saw her.Zheng Xian approached Yi'an and said:

"Hope, I'm not too late, am I?"

Hearing Zheng Xian's words, tears filled Yi'an's eyes, she looked at her excitedly, and said after a long time:

"No!……"

The weather in the afternoon was mild and clear, and the courtyard was quiet and silent. The tall sycamore trees spread their branches and leaves high towards the sky, the shadows of the trees were dancing on the ground, and the surrounding flowers and plants were blooming.

On a bamboo couch under the tree, a woman was sleeping with a book in her arms. She was sleeping peacefully, and she didn't feel the sunlight moving slowly to shine on her at all.

Yi'an approached slowly, looked at the person on the couch for a moment, then gently covered her with a long gown, and she sat down on the round stool by the side of the couch, holding a round fan in her hand to cover her face. sunshine.

When I was young, the person on the couch woke up and looked up at the person holding the fan, with a gentle smile on his brows.The Sri Lankan stood up and sat up, while the Rai sat in front of him, turning a blind eye.Yi Ren was shy, avoiding his gaze, took tea from the low table and gave it to Si Ren, who took it with a smile, and sipped it carefully.

Yufeng came in from the courtyard gate, saw this side, hesitated, and wanted to retreat.The Sri Lankan caught a glimpse and shouted:

"Yufeng, what's the matter?"

Yufeng walked up to her, handed a piece of paper to Zheng Xian and said:

"Master, this is an urgent letter from Lord Liu Yan Liu."

Zheng Xian took it and opened the envelope to read the letter. After reading, her expression was serious.

"What's wrong?" Yi An asked.

"Floods in the land of two lakes surged, destroying houses and fields, and 10,000+ people were affected!"

Zheng Xian handed the letterhead to Yi An.Yi'an read it and said:

"The flood is merciless, and 10,000+ people are displaced and homeless. Mr. Liu hopes that you will contribute to save the people. What are you going to do?"

"Man-made disasters have not stopped, and natural disasters are coming again. This is a chaotic world!"

Zheng Xian said in her mouth, bowed her head and thought for a while, then said to Yufeng:

"Yufeng, you immediately take out 600 million taels of silver from the bank, use these to raise rice grains from various places, and then contact Mr. Liu to transport them to the disaster area."

"Yes."

"Sister Yufeng, wait a moment," Yi An said.

Yufeng stopped.

"Also need cow cotton and medicine."

Yufeng looked at Yi'an and smiled slightly, saying:

"Okay, got it."

"Then you can get another one million taels." Zheng Xian added.

"Yes." Yufeng agreed and left.

"Yi'an, prepare two sets of men's clothing." Zheng Xian said.

"Men's clothes? Do you want to go in person?"

"This time the matter is urgent and complicated. It will be much more convenient to wear men's clothing. We will leave tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I'm going to prepare now."

Zheng Xian also stood up and said:

"I'll write a letter to Mr. Liu and ask him to take care of it."

Everyone got busy again, and the next morning, Zheng Xian and Yi An set off in a car, embarking on a new journey.
