Chapter two hundred and ninety-one yearning and escaping
A spacious and bright hall, exquisite skills, pleasing rhythmic dances, carefully cooked delicious food, or well-dressed, elegant guests. In fact, Yang Huiyu likes banquets with laughter and liveliness.
During the period after returning to the Yang family, Yang Huiyu was like an outsider who could not interfere with family affairs, even trivial matters. The life was indeed a bit boring. But at a banquet like today, he could show up in front of others and have someone listen to his words.
, you can also listen to others talking, and your mood will be affected by the atmosphere and become more colorful.
Therefore, Yang Huiyu's complicated mood at the banquet actually had nothing to do with the people at the banquet, it was all her own problem.
Regardless of the hostess Wang Cen, the female guests, or the maids who take care of the guests, they are all very kind to Yang Huiyu. Maybe people don't care about her, but on such occasions, everyone will always show dignity, politeness and enthusiasm.
It's just that Yang Huiyu envied Wang Cen more. It should feel good to get people's attention and recognition, especially at such a high-level banquet, where many of the guests have status, talent, fame, and that kind of generosity and propriety.
A good performance may make you like yourself... instead of dislike you.
Sometimes Yang Huiyu has a bad attitude towards others, not only towards her relatives, but also towards Qin Liang, an outsider who saved her life and her cousin Wang Yuanji. She realized that maybe she was not angry with others, but with others.
I'm angry with myself.
After the maid took her to the inner house, only separated by a wall, the noisy and joyful atmosphere suddenly calmed down.
There were not many people in the large courtyard of the inner house. The scenery was magnificent, elegant and beautiful, and it was a peaceful scene, as if they were not in the same mansion.
When she came to a place with few people, there was no dazzling excitement, and Yang Huiyu also relaxed a little. She was a little yearning for the lively banquet outside, but at the same time she wanted to escape. It was still related to her situation, and she was worried that others would inquire about her affairs.
.
The maid named Mo Xie took Yang Huiyu to the west courtyard and explained that her girl's clothes were kept in the bedroom.
So Yang Huiyu came to the place where Qin Liang and his wife lived, a little dizzy, but Mo Xie did not let her enter the bedroom. He only asked her to take a seat in the room outside the bedroom, and then Mo Xie went in to find some clothes.
Moye found a pair of clean blue silk robes with embroidered patterns, as well as white undergarments.
Mo Xie said: "Madam, please wait a moment. I'm going to fetch some hot water so that I can wipe off the smell of alcohol on my body."
Sure enough, she came in after a while carrying a celadon basin, with a few petals of flowers sprinkled in it and a little spice added. Moye then bowed to her, closed the door gently, and let Yang Huiyu sit in the room.
Clean up the room yourself.
Yang Huiyu felt a little strange when she took off her clothes in the room where Qin Liang lived. But she was the only one in the room, so she generously removed the wine-stained clothes, then wiped them gently with a cloth dipped in water, and drank the wine
Her hands were not very balanced, and it was difficult to focus on jumping around in some places. When she put on Wang Lingjun's clothes, she felt even more novel and unfamiliar. These clothes were not new, after all, others had worn them.
Wang Lingjun's dark coat was cut very carefully. After Yang Huiyu put it on, he could almost feel the figure of the other party. The waist was really small, the hips were quite loose, and the chest was not suitable. The chest of this dress was higher, but the sides were
A little tight.
Yang Huiyu turned her head and glanced at the door, then silently walked into the bedroom. She came to the bronze mirror stand and observed the appearance in the mirror from all angles. Putting on Wang Lingjun's clothes, she felt like
It's like he's become a different person.
She looked at the face in the bronze mirror carefully with some suspicion, but she didn't know where she was. She was not as good as the dead Xia Houhui before, and now she is not as good as Wang Lingjun.
Yang Huiyu sighed quietly, left the bronze mirror, walked slowly around the bedroom, and walked in front of a set of red official uniforms hanging next to the curtain. This set of robes should be worn by Qin Liang
, maybe to avoid folding, I hung it here on a wooden frame.
Yang Huiyu looked at it carefully for a while, then couldn't help but get closer and smell it gently on the robe. It seemed that it had not been washed and had a faint smell.
She did not dare to stay in the bedroom for too long, so she immediately walked out of the back room, went to the door of the outside room, and opened the wooden door.
After a while, Mo Xie walked in. She brought a piece of clean cloth, then folded and wrapped the dirty clothes that Yang Huiyu had changed out of. Mo Xie suddenly said at this moment: "I will wash it first, Madam?"
Yang Huiyu shook his head and said, "You can't even dry it after washing it."
Mo Xie said: "After I dry it, please ask someone to deliver it to Madam's house."
Yang Huiyu smiled and said, "It's all wrapped up. I'll take it back and wash it myself."
Moye added: "There is a wing next to it. I have cleaned it. Madam, do you want to rest for a while?"
Yang Huiyu glanced at Mang Mountain, which was clearly visible in the distance under the bright sunshine, and said, "I'm too drunk and have to go back. Please say goodbye to Mrs. Wang for me."
Mo Xie said: "I will send my wife to the front hall."
The two of them walked out of the gatehouse of the inner house. Yang Huiyu followed the noisy sounds and glanced at the banquet hall where the female guests were. Logically speaking, she should go to say goodbye to Wang Lingjun in person, but Wang Lingjun and others would definitely give her a ride, and then she would be taken to the banquet hall.
The whole hall was full of guests, and people couldn't help but talk about her.
So Yang Huiyu told Mo Xie not to go any further. Mo Xie also called another maid and sent Yang Huiyu to the Yang family's carriage.
When he first walked to the corridor, he met Qin Liang and someone talking. Yang Huiyu stopped for a moment and continued walking forward. Qin Liang also noticed her and turned to look over.
Yang Huiyu stepped forward and bowed, while the maid followed from a distance.
Qin Liang looked at Yang Huiyu and obviously recognized that the clothes she was wearing were his wife's clothes. He didn't ask any more questions, then returned the courtesy and introduced: "This is Ji Shuye."
Yang Huiyu glanced at Ji Kang. Of course, he had heard of this person and he was quite famous. However, Ji Kang was aloof and aloof, and he was not willing to interact with ordinary people, regardless of whether they were powerful or not.
Unexpectedly, Ji Kang would come to Qin Liang's banquet, and the two of them could still talk to each other? In Yang Huiyu's eyes, they were completely different people.
Qin Liang said again: "Mrs. Yang, Uncle Yang's sister."
Yang Huiyu then bowed to Ji Kang and simply said, "Nice to meet you." Ji Kang returned the gift casually, without even looking at Yang Huiyu.
Yang Huiyu didn't take it seriously. Ji Kang's personality was probably like this. He didn't care much about powerful people or beauties. Of course, she was not interested in the things Ji Kang wrote, and she didn't want to make friends with famous people for the sake of fame.
He is not an official and does not need the evaluation of celebrities.
Qin Liang and Ji Kang were supposed to be talking about what topic. At this time, they continued: "I have read Shu Ye's article. Shu Ye is not opposed to people pursuing official careers, and I also think there is nothing wrong with being casual. People value it because
Different things prevent everyone from using power and wealth as the criterion for judging life."
Ji Kang nodded and said calmly: "General Qin is a person worth getting along with, but I am more accustomed to the gathering of close friends. If there are too many people, it becomes a social event, so I'll leave first."
The two of them bowed to each other again, and Ji Kang said again: "General Qin, please stay. You don't have to stick to vulgar etiquette."
Qin Liang then called a servant to see Ji Kang off.
When Yang Huiyu heard this, she felt that the discussion between the two people was quite interesting. She did not hear the whole content of their discussion, but she could feel a sense of elegance and knowledge, which was not comparable to those who only pretend to be sensual and sensual in their hearts.
After Qin Liang saw Ji Kang off, he immediately said to Yang Huiyu: "Actually, Ji Shuye probably didn't approve of my article. The famous article "Please Lu Gong Zhijie Shu" has a secular purpose and is not of high style."
Yang Huiyu suddenly felt very relieved, because Qin Zhongming was willing to talk to him, as if it was a sign of respect. In fact, what women can feel most is their emotions and mentality, and they don't care so much about men's persistence.
Her attitude was better than last time, and she said: "General Qin applies what he has learned, and there is no difference between superior and inferior."
Qin Liang said: "That's true. If Uncle Yang reads my article, his senses will probably be better."
Only then did Yang Huiyu come to his senses. He felt a little strange talking to Qin Liang like this in the corridor, so he hurriedly said: "Thank you, General Qin, for your hospitality. I will take my leave and go home."
Qin Liang glanced at her and said: "Like Madam, I also drink alcohol to get on my face, but my drinking capacity is not very good. In this case, I won't stay more and just give Madam a ride."
He first found a reason for Yang Huiyu to leave early, and she didn't need to explain it. But Yang Huiyu couldn't help but want to make things difficult for him, and said calmly: "General Qin didn't send Ji Kang away, so why send a concubine?"
Qin Liang actually said softly: "Because my wife is more important in my heart."
Yang Huiyu glanced at him awkwardly and said casually: "Why don't I feel that way?"
Just now, Yang Huiyu thought that Qin Liang wanted to tease her with sweet words, but now Qin Liang said seriously: "That's because of some misunderstandings. For example, when I let Wang Yuanji go last time, I must have considered Uncle Yang and Mrs. Yang's feelings.
I just agreed to that thing. It can't be because of Mrs. Wu, and Wang Yuanji has nothing to do with Mrs. Wu. Is this true?"
Yang Huiyu thought for a moment and asked, "Is it a coincidence that we didn't see General Qin?"
After she finished speaking, she felt a little regretful. Why on earth was she so entangled in the treatment and attitude she received from Qin Liang?
Qin Liang didn't take it seriously and said, "Of course, I couldn't leave in those few days and I didn't see anyone."
Yang Huiyu suddenly believed what he said. Maybe it was because his eyes were sincere, or maybe he came back to his senses and found that the relationship between the words was a bit strange.
Originally, Qin Liang was kind to her, and Yang Huiyu should have owed him, but in turn, he treated her very well... except for the first time they met. But that time, Yang Huiyu also made sarcastic remarks and was full of resentment.
She is not unreasonable. It is rare for a powerful man to treat a woman like Qin Liang. She also appreciates it, and the inexplicable resentment and anger in her heart seem to have gradually faded away. She
Then he calmed down and said, "I am very grateful for General Qin's kindness to us. If there is an opportunity to repay, I will not refuse."
Qin Liang smiled bitterly and said: "If you don't hate me, I will be very satisfied."
Yang Huiyu then remembered what happened to the Sima family. She came to her senses and realized that she should really deal with the Wang family and the Qin family should have hatred.
And because she had treated Qin Liang coldly several times, Qin Liang might have thought that she was resentful because of her husband's family affairs.
Yang Huiyu didn't answer and walked forward slowly. She turned around and saw Qin Liang walking unsteadily next to her, so she said, "General Qin, please stay." She hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "If you can't drink it, drink less.
