The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 138 Lovesickness

The group returned to Jiang Mansion. As soon as Ziyun helped Jingshu get out of the carriage, the doorman came up to him and handed a letter to Jingshu: "Miss Cousin, your letter."

Jing Shu hurriedly took it, and when she saw the words "My wife, Shu'er, personally express" on the envelope, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

When everyone entered the courtyard, Mrs. Tian called to the juniors and said, "You have been tired for most of the day. Let's go to my place and have some snacks before going back. Yesterday I ordered the kitchen to steam glutinous rice cakes."

Everyone agreed, but Jingshu declined politely: "I'm a little tired and not hungry. I'll go back and rest for a while, and then come back in the evening."

She had just received a letter from Li Ling and was in a hurry to go back and read it. She had no time to eat glutinous rice cakes.

Tian didn't understand what Jingshu was thinking, so she advised, "Go back to my place after eating. I specially asked them to make your favorite red date bean paste for you."

Jiang Youchen, who was standing next to Tian, ​​saw this and said to his mother: "Since my cousin is tired, let her go back to rest. If my mother feels sorry for her cousin that she can't eat glutinous rice cake, she can just order someone to send it to her house later."

.”

After hearing what her son said, Mrs. Tian stopped insisting and said, "Then you go back and rest first. I will order someone to send it to you later."

Seeing that Jingshu was about to leave, she couldn't help but remind her: "Our family is going to have a reunion dinner tonight, so you should come over to my aunt early."

Jingshu agreed and said goodbye to everyone, turned around and hurried back to the yard.

After entering the house, she didn't even bother to take off her coat, so she hurriedly opened the letter.

Still so few words.

The errand went well. You'll be waiting for me in Chaozhou in five days.

Ziyun helped Jingshu undress, glanced at the few words on the letter, and couldn't help but look disgusted.

It's been half a month since we were separated, and there were two letters in total. Each time they contained only a few words, and I didn't even know how to express my thoughts and recitations.

How boring!

Jingshu noticed Ziyun's disdain and still said the same thing: "It's not like you don't know that your husband is a slow-talking person."

The kindness her husband treats her is all in his actions, how can others understand.

After saying this, Jingshu ran to the inner couch again, holding the letter like a treasure and reading it over and over again.

The smile on his face is so sweet that it can be soaked with honey.

After reading and laughing for a while, she put the letter on her chest again, pouted and murmured to herself: "We still have to wait five days, it's such a long time."

It had been half a month since she had been separated from Li Ling. During this period of time, she had really realized how a day without seeing him was like three autumns, and how a day was like a year.

She really missed him.

In her previous life, Li Ling often had to go out, and sometimes it would take a year and a half to return after being sent on an expedition. She did not miss him like this.

She missed the sense of solidity brought by him holding her tightly, and his hot chest. Even if he looked silly occasionally, or teased her childishly from time to time, it still made her feel cute.

As she thought about it, the corners of her mouth showed a graceful curve again, and her face was filled with sweetness.

Ziyun, who was busy cleaning up at the side, saw his young lady lying there with a sad face for a while, and a sweet look on her face the next. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: This time I took back my uncle's letter, I was even more stupid than last time.

sick.

Ziyun was secretly laughing at Jingshu here. He raised his head and saw the eldest girl beside Tian from a distance, walking into the yard with a food box.

Ziyun hurriedly put down her work, opened the door and went out.

When the eldest girl saw Ziyun, she smiled and said, "I am sending rice cakes to my cousin as ordered by my wife."

Ziyun took the glutinous rice cake, and the girl subconsciously glanced into the room and whispered: "Is the cousin asleep?"

How could Ziyun have the nerve to tell people that her master was holding a letter from his uncle and feeling lovesick inside, so he only said perfunctorily: "Yes, the young lady was so tired that she fell asleep when she came back."

Hearing what Ziyun said, the girl didn't doubt that he was there, and whispered: "Then I'll go back first. After Miss Biao has rested, you can go to the front to eat early in the evening."

Ziyun agreed and returned to the house with the glutinous rice cake. Seeing Jingshu still lying on the couch and looking at the letter, she really couldn't help it. She stepped forward and took the letter from her hand: "The last letter was still ten

There are six words, but this time there are four missing, which makes you even more fascinated."

Jing Shu was not annoyed, she looked at Ziyun with a smile on her face and said, "He said he will return after five more days."

Ziyun gave her an angry look: "It's just a few words, and I can see it at a glance."

She pushed Jing Shu and said, "My uncle has ordered someone to send you glutinous rice cakes. After walking on the mountain road for half a day, you haven't eaten anything in the afternoon, so hurry up and take a few bites to fill your stomach."

Jingshu then got off the ground, walked to the table, sat down and ate glutinous rice cake, and then she felt tired.

She put on her pajamas and went to bed, intending to take a nap. As soon as she closed her eyes, she couldn't help but take out Li Ling's letter from under the pillow, read it over and over, and then she closed her eyes and fell asleep with satisfaction.

After taking a nap, Jingshu got up and tidied up, then rushed to her aunt's place in the front yard.

As soon as she took Ziyun out of the courtyard, she happened to meet Jiang Youchen coming out of the courtyard.

When he was a child, in order to make it easier for him to take care of his two young children, Tian moved their courtyards next to each other.

When Jiang Youchen saw Jingshu, a warm smile appeared on his face: "Have you had a rest after walking on the mountain road for most of the day?"

Jing Shu also had a warm smile on her face and replied: "I just slept for a while and I feel much better."

The two of them stopped talking and walked to the front yard together, one behind the other.

After being nursed for several days, Mrs. Jiang, who had been ill for a long time, has recovered. This family dinner was attended by the Jiang family.

During the Cold Food Festival, although you can only eat cold food, it is also lively when the whole family gathers together.

On the table, Mrs. Tian glanced at Jing Shu beside her and said, "Since I came back from the mountain, how can I see Shu'er so happy? But is there any happy event?"

As soon as these words came out, Jingshu's cheeks turned slightly red and she hesitated: "What's the happy event? Maybe I went out for a walk with everyone in the morning and my heart became brighter."

Ziyun, who was standing beside Jingshu, heard this and covered his mouth and snickered.

Seeing the master and servant looking like this, Mrs. Zhang asked, "I saw that Shu'er had received the letter when she came back, but did my uncle come?"

Jingshu lowered her head and whispered back: "It's him."

Mrs. Zhang smiled and asked, "But my uncle is coming back?"

Jingshu's cheeks were slightly red and she replied like a mosquito: "I said I'll be back in five days."

When Jiang Zhao heard that his niece-in-law was coming back, he told his youngest son, "Sanlang, you will accompany your cousin to the city to welcome my uncle in the next few days."

Jiang Youchen replied "Okay".

His face still had a calm look, making it impossible to see any flaws. Jiang Youchen picked up the wine bottle in front of the table, filled a glass of sake, and drank it all in one gulp.

This wine was green plum wine drunk during the Cold Food Festival. The wine had a light taste and was not strong. As the wine slowly entered his stomach, Jiang Youchen felt his throat was burning.
