Chapter 28: Going Home
In fact, Yu Moqing has encountered such a thing in this life. There were several times when her mission was to assassinate their relatives for the buyer. Although she had never been moved by these things, she felt a little disappointed when they happened to her.
She glanced at Yu Xiuyi for a few more times. He was listening to his grandmother's instructions seriously, with gratitude and surprise in his eyes, and he didn't look like he was buying a murderer at all. Yu Moqing thought again, was he pretending to be himself?
Or is Yu Chengmo an accomplice? At this time, Yu Chengmo put down a concern, and naturally had a comfortable expression. He has always put his magnanimity on his face, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was forced, so Yu Xiuyi is the biggest suspect.
Yu Moqing could only suppress his irritability and pretend to be calm.
Finally, the old lady said it was not early and she had to go to bed, so everyone went back to their houses.
As soon as he returned to the house, the second sister said, "Qingqing, what are you thinking? Seeing that you are absent-minded?"
Yu Moqing came back to his senses: "Ah?"
The second sister comforted her: "Do you care about whether to stay or not in the ancestral hall? With the father's personality, it's not our turn. Besides, we don't lack that piece of land. Don't think too much." It turned out that the second sister had been caring about Yu Moqing when she was having dinner, but she found that she looked confused and worried.
Yu Moqing said, "No... I didn't think about this, I was just thinking about the book of reading this day." As he said that, Yu Moqing smiled. She thought to herself that she didn't need to write a draft of lies now, and she didn't know whether her second sister believed it or not.
As expected, the second sister looked disbelief and sighed after hearing this: "Qingqing, I always feel that your temperament has changed a little after falling into the water. I am always stuck in the same place and it is different from others' words. If you have any worries, you can tell me that the second sister will help you."
Yu Moqing replied, "Second sister, you are looking forward to me being sick all day long? I have nothing to do, but I can't remember things. I think about it more. To outsiders, I want to be lost. Don't worry about me." This time she replied with a sincere smile to relieve my second sister.
She remembered the thrilling afternoon again, and was a little worried that this would involve her second sister. She could have done everything, but now she gradually felt the warmth of this family and didn't want anyone to be hurt.
If Yu Xiu also had self-knowledge, he would not have taken action next. It seems that he still has to sit and watch the changes.
The next morning, Yu Moqing woke up in a dream. She repeatedly dreamed of coming, and was sweating profusely when she woke up. She took a few deep breaths, packed herself and walked towards the hall with everyone.
The ancestor worship that morning was particularly smooth, with clear weather and cloudless. There were even a few birds standing on the branches making pleasant calls, as if celebrating the ancestor worship and the joy of the old lady passing the throne.
In a trance, Yu Moqing followed Mr. Yu and the others into the car back, and they were all in peace until they passed the moat.
"You stared outside the curtain for a long time, but you can't bear to see the scenery outside?" The second sister joked while drinking tea.
"Second sister, what are the tributes placed in the main hall?" Yu Moqing did not turn around.
"Just some fruits and pastries, what else can I do?" the second sister smiled.
"Why is my father a little nervous when he heard that his elder brother had made a private tribute?" Yu Moqing continued to ask.
The second sister paused for a while and said, "Woo... Daddy is probably afraid that the eldest brother will disturb the ancestors' leisure. After all, he is caring about these things... Forget it, why do you think so much? Look, my mother said it's too early to go back and take us to set up lanterns, hehe."
After the last point in Yu Moqing's eyes disappeared, she lowered the curtain. When she turned around, the carriage stopped.
When she got out of the car, she found that her father and brother-in-law had gone back early, and her mother and elder sister were standing on the street waiting for her and her second sister.
Mrs. Yu said softly: "There are some things in the mansion, so the master and Ling Ke will go back first. We walked along the street to the water stack by the river in the city, and then bought some lanterns to set it aside."
The eldest sister and the second sister agreed one after another.
There were many lantern selling stalls on the long inland water stack, and Mrs. Yu and her sisters began to carry the lanterns they liked.
Yu Moqing took a few casual glances and then picked a lotus lantern. Although it was still daytime, the wick was lit with bright flames, she seemed to see a flame from it, burning her heart. She did not make a wish, but just pushed the lantern away, and immediately got up and went back with her mother.
But shortly after she left, a fierce current of water quickly washed away the lantern and the flames were extinguished by the water.
After Yu Moqing returned to the house, Shuihe immediately took the lady's belongings and smiled: "Miss, you are back. When the master and his son-in-law entered the door today, I thought you were back. I specially met you in front of you."
When Yu Moqing saw Shui He, his mood improved a little and said with a smile: "You miss me. This trip to the ancestral hall was very aggrieved, which made me miss you very much."
Shuihe replied: "Then you go back to your room and write a hot bath and have a comfortable dinner."
Yu Moqing responded and went back to the room.
After Yu Moqing took a shower, it was already Shen Shi. His father and brother-in-law also sat on the dining table. The food on the table had not moved, and his father seemed to have something to say.
Sure enough, I heard Mr. Yu say, "I went back to the mansion today with Ling Ke first. It was news from the palace that the autumn hunting will start on the seventh day of next month. Preparation will be started during this period. The emperor has always promised us to take our family with us. In the past, Xiangxiang and Qingqing were staying at home and were not allowed to see it. This time I plan to go all our family and take care of our maids. Try to bring as little things as possible, and there is a place to pick you up there. What do you think?"
