Ever since the day Cheng Shicheng wanted to force a kiss when he disagreed with him, Tao Xinhe has been angry and avoided him until now.

Suddenly hearing that he came to visit the mansion again on the first day of the festive season, Tao Xinhe's first feeling was boredom. She wanted to stretch her body but abruptly withdrew her hand and came back. She frowned and said to Qingfang, "See you soon."

In this way, he had to shut himself in the room to avoid meeting Cheng Shicheng, Tao Xinhe had nothing to do all afternoon, and later even heard the faint voice of Qingfang stopping him outside the courtyard.

Watching the sunlight slipping away from the window, Tao Xinhe quietly sat on the embroidered stool at the junction of light and shade, and finally waited until the sweaty Qingfang pushed the door into the room to report:

"Layman, Uncle is gone. However, he left a message saying that he was unable to congratulate you in person today on the Dragon Boat Festival, and he will come back tomorrow. Sincerity is as good as gold and stone, and he will wait until you see him. Then, he stayed There are many Dragon Boat Festival ceremonies, and the servants will present the list of gifts to you for review, right?"

Tao Xinhe smiled slightly, softly comforted Qingfang for her troubles, and took the long gift list from the uncle's house.

She looked at it casually, and thought to herself: One day counts as one day, she hasn't yet? Think about what to say when you see Cheng Shicheng.

In addition to the five-color thread, realgar wine, etc., the most popular thing on the gift list is the assortment of rice dumplings, each with nine or ten pieces, which means long-lasting or perfect.

Tao Xin Hexian pointed her fingers and said softly, "Chestnut dumpling, candied fruit dumpling, walnut dumpling, etc., and shredded pork dumpling, egg yolk dumpling, which are rare in the capital, or not? The most common red date dumpling and bean paste dumpling.

Yes, how many tricks can the people in the market come up with? Most of them are made from cheap and easy-to-get red dates. People who are a little more particular will grind some bean paste by themselves, or even buy some finished products from grain and bean shops. Most of the dumplings they make are The taste of red dates or bean paste is naturally not in the eyes of Ji Changbo, I am afraid that it is not noble and unique enough.

Probably, this is a manifestation of the difference between her and Cheng Shicheng, they are not the same people after all.

Because Tao Xinhe only loved these two kinds of sweet rice dumplings since she was a child, and felt that the other flavors were not like rice dumplings. When she was not married, she was teased by her father for not being able to taste it. Gu Ningxi has always disliked glutinous rice dumplings such as rice dumplings that are not easy to digest. Eating, after getting married, eating the half and half of her leftovers has always been a joy.

At that time, Tao Xinhe wrote a letter to Cheng Shicheng, saying that he hoped to try to look to the future. Tao Xinhe was sincere.

However, in the past two months, she had forced herself to allow Cheng Shicheng to be alone or even close to her, and had a serious conversation with him, but she found that it was still not enough.

She will unconsciously compare Cheng Shicheng and Gu Ningxi, they are obviously two very different people, comparing and comparing, she misses Gu Ningxi's harmony with her more and more, and Gu Ningxi's own warmth and consideration.

Speaking of the roots, it was the weeds in her heart that caused the trouble. In this weather with constant spring breeze, they could not be completely removed, and they grew wildly quietly, forcing her to recognize the direction of her heart.

Rubbing between her brows, Tao Xinhe deeply hated herself for not being up to date, and she has been away for less than half a year, but her heart is so soft that Cheng Shicheng is involved in it. It is not yet known how it will end in the future, so I can only take one step at a time.

In the evening, his father Tao Cheng went to the eldest daughter to complain, basically saying that Tao Xinhe chose a military general boy for his younger sister, and Qiangniang had seen her before and moved the girl's heart. The two parties were about to propose a marriage, and the related matters were being discussed, but the eldest daughter suddenly called a stop, and he was so tired that he had to deal with Cheng Shicheng today.

Tao Cheng told his daughter in detail what happened to him during the holiday today: "Oh, you didn't show up, so I left me alone to deal with Ji Changbo. I wished each other good health during the Dragon Boat Festival, and he asked the Chen family when it was suitable to propose a marriage. According to your instructions, you said that you are privately entrusting the Qin Tianjian to calculate the horoscopes for the children, and we will talk about the next step when we know the fate result, but Ji Changbo doesn't seem to believe it."

"Daddy is troubled." Tao Xinhe replied with lowered eyebrows, sitting upright.

"It's really tiring. For a while, he said that it's not bad to find an eminent monk in the temple as agreed before, and then asked me who I was looking for, and then said that the male college is getting married, and it will change later. , I was sweating all over my head." Tao Cheng wiped his forehead casually to show his embarrassment in the afternoon.

Tao Xinhe had no choice but to agree, and she will receive the next time Uncle Ji Chang comes to the door. Seeing her father heaving a sigh of relief as he wished, she felt helpless and funny.

On the sixth day of May the next day, the weather was gray and foggy, making people hazy.

Tao Xinhe thought that Cheng Shicheng might come, but if she left the mansion, she would feel guilty, so she had to sort out her thoughts while managing the mansion, and arranged for the servants to pack up the used Dragon Boat Festival items, take summer clothes, cut summer tents, and prepare for the coming summer. prepare for the day.

For some reason, Tao Xinhe squeezed her fingers and calculated, Mrs. Gu's 7749th is exactly today, grandchildren, especially granddaughters, will be able to recover to a certain extent after worshiping on the tomb this morning. socializing.

Originally, Gu Ningxi was going to stay until a hundred days later, but the emperor's grace was so great that even Tao Cheng knew it, the emperor waited for Gu Ningxi to take office after seven days.

Therefore, Gu Ningxi should set foot on the Golden Luan Hall tomorrow, formally accept the emperor's appointment and promotion, and become the fourth-rank secretary of the official department that has been clearly promised to him.

Tao Xinhe unconsciously thought that the light scarlet color official uniform of the fifth rank was already very handsome, and the dark scarlet color corresponding to the fourth rank was even more intense and gorgeous. Most people couldn't suppress such a strong color, but Gu Ningxi was not.

After receiving the new clothes, Gu Ningxi should be able to complement his big fox eyes and chic figure when he puts them on, and maybe he will be crazily praised by underachievers writing essays and poems.

If you waited until dusk with all your thoughts and hopes, and didn't see the sun showing his face all day, the overcast sky made people feel gloomy, Cheng Shicheng hadn't arrived, it was like a boot waiting to fall to the ground, Tao Xinhe would see it It was Gu Runing.

"Sister-in-law, my cousin Xi might be going crazy." Gu Runing pouted, and the first words she said to Tao Xinhe surprised her.

Tao Xinhe frowned and bit her lips. After a long while, she hesitated and asked: "Ning Niang, why did you say that? You are doing Qi Qi for Mrs. Gu today? What's not going well?"

Gu Runing, who was dressed in a plain white summer shirt, drank a few sips of tea before speaking again: "It has nothing to do with grandma's ceremony. It's said that for fifty days, I can only stay in the house. I'm so bored." , Everything went well today. However, cousin Xi is frighteningly thin, and I heard from the boys that he often does not sleep during this period of time, focusing on drawing."

Tao Xinhe knew about Gu Ningxi's sleepless nights. According to what he said in his letter, he painted the picture of the phoenix inhabiting the Wuwu before, which was handed over to the Hong family. Afterwards, he tried to draw a small portrait of her, but it didn't seem to be true. well.

Therefore, Tao Xinhe nodded lightly, poured another cup of honey water for Gu Runing by pinching the thin taro purple cuff, pushed it to her hand, and said, "Slightly? I heard. Gu Sicheng misses his grandmother, and his filial piety is commendable. During this period of time It is not an exaggeration to not pay attention to food and clothing, not to lie in bed or sleep well. Is Ning Niang's visit today to play with Qiang Niang?"

Gu Runing sighed and said: "It's not just about filial piety, otherwise, why would I say crazy words. Sister-in-law? I don't know. From the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival until we gathered for the ceremony, Cousin Xi hasn't eaten. He said he was neither hungry nor hungry." In my opinion, it is a miracle that he can stand upright and insist on completing the ceremony during half an hour in the morning!"

Tao Xinhe heard the words, and murmured in a low voice: "That means he missed four meals. What is he doing?"

"My mother shed tears when she saw Brother Xi's chapped mouth and slack eyes, but from what I can see, Brother Xi seems to be immersed in his study, did you come out and respectfully responded to my mother?" A few times, but he may not understand the content of the words. After the ceremony, he shook his head deeply to his grandparents and left in a hurry."

Gu Runing recalled the scene in the morning, and felt that Cousin Xi acted unreasonably. His mother took her and chased her to the Gu mansion, but was told by the housekeeper that the master had already plunged into the study, as is common in recent days.

Gu Runing held Tao Xinhe's hand tightly, shaking it as if asking for help: "Sister-in-law, it was almost noon when we chased after him, and it was supposed to prepare lunch. But the housekeeper said that the master told him not to disturb his painting, and I'm afraid most of them still won't eat. of."

Isn't that five meals? Now that it is almost summer, how can people survive without eating? Tao Xinhe thought silently in her heart, and then she felt cold fingertips, knotted stomach and painful pain, and her neck became stiff and painful after a long time, as if she was the one who had been hungry for two days.

"I don't know what to do. I've thought about it. At least I managed to figure out the value of filial piety today. It's not so taboo to visit your house, so I'll tell you everything. Please feel sorry for him. Tomorrow or the day after When you are free, go and untie cousin Xie Xi, I don't know if it will work." At the end, Gu Runing was crying.

"Is Ning Niang here?" Tao Xinqiang's voice came from far and near, and the next moment she came outside Tao Xinhe's room, but she pushed the door open and went straight to Gu Runing with joy.

Instead, Tao Xinhe avoided the embarrassment of not knowing how to answer the conversation.

His chest seemed to be covered by dark clouds, and he couldn't breathe. Tao Xinhe forced a smile, and said to Gu Runing ambiguously: "I see, thank you Ning Niang for coming here to let me know. You and Qiang Niang haven't seen each other for a long time, so talk more Let's talk, it's better to stay tonight."

Gu Runing also knew that what he was asking for was right and wrong. After all, Tao Xinhe had no relationship with Gu Ningxi now, and today? It is rare to refute her "sister-in-law" one by one, so what can I expect from others?

Feeling Tao Xinhe slowly withdrawing her plain hand, Gu Runing was dejected, and declined the invitation to stay overnight. After a few breaths, she left with Tao Xinqiang arm in arm, and went to the little girl's yard to have a whisper.

Tao Xinhe watched the two girls leave the room before allowing herself to lose her composure. She stretched out her hand to cover the soft and flat abdomen, and massaged it in circles with all her strength, and said to herself almost silently: "Why don't you eat? Why do you abuse yourself?"

After tossing and turning all night, Tao Xinhe got up sullenly amidst the pattering rain, leaned on the window lattice, stretched out her hand to catch the raindrops and sighed: "Today we don't see the sun again."

It was still early, and she was still fiddling with the "Yanchun Pavilion" wooden box on the dressing table, and she let the little maid comb her hair with a stiff neck, when she heard the report that Uncle Jichang had come to visit.

Forget it, let's deal with this one first, it is also important to cut off the untimely peach blossom disaster.

Tao Xinhe thought, for the time being put aside the entanglement of whether to go to Gu's mansion to check on Gu Ningxi's situation, and ordered the little maid to hurry up.

Then, Tao Xinhe, who hadn't had breakfast yet, and Tao Xinhe, who was in low spirits, received the unexpected guest Cheng Shicheng in the flower hall of the mansion.
