captive skylark

Chapter 127
She picked up the embroidered veil, looked at the tea stains on it, and felt more guilt on her face, "It's all my fault, this veil is ruined now."

"It's okay." Yun Xi took the embroidered bag, and comforted her softly, "It's not a big deal."

He frowned for a moment, worried slightly, "It's just that this is what the girl wanted, and I planned to embroider it for the girl in a few days. Now, it's gone."

The next day, when Yunxi and Zhao Qingqing talked about this matter, they also took the responsibility on themselves, "I blamed me too, and the tea I drank was conveniently put on the case table. Otherwise, this incident would not have happened."

Zhao Qingqing laughed and said, "I don't think it's a big deal. If the handkerchief is dirty, it will be dirty. I was just talking casually. I don't want you to be so caring. You are bored in the house during the New Year's Eve. But It’s hard to worry about you.”

Yun Xi shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, the girl likes it, and the servant will embroider another side for the girl."

When she spoke, the office was considerate and considerate, much better than Bai Zhi.

Zhao Qingqing couldn't help liking her, patted her hand and sighed, "It would be great if you were really my servant girl."

He smiled again and said, "I'm not in a hurry to get that handkerchief, don't hurry, just embroider two stitches if you have nothing to do."

Yun Xi nodded in response.

This square handkerchief was embroidered slowly, and it was not finished until the end of the year, but people had to leave.

She came to the room to ask Zhao Qingqing to say goodbye, Zhao Qingqing was quite surprised, "Did you find your relatives?"

"Yes." Yunxi nodded, and said the words he had prepared, "My aunt originally moved her family to Nanling, but because she left in a hurry, she didn't leave me a letter. Now she is safe, so A few days ago, I inquired and sent me a letter."

"Then there's no need to be in such a hurry. It's better to stay a little longer and leave after I get married." Zhao Qingqing spoke urgently, intending to keep her.

Yun Xi lowered her eyes and shook her head lightly, wondering: "It's not that I don't want to stay. It's just that my aunt is sick and not in good health. She came looking for me because she thought I could take care of her."

That being the case, it is not good for Zhao Qingqing to stay any longer.

Just thinking of how inconvenient it is for her to travel alone, she sent a servant from the mansion to take her there.

When returning home to pack her bags, Bai Zhi also came to see her off.

"Why do you have to leave in such a hurry?" She was reluctant to let go, and pulled Yunxi, "I also said that we will go to Xie's mansion with the girl in two days, so we can have a companion!"

As he spoke, tears fell.

Yunxi laughed, and was very relieved, "Okay, I'm just looking for relatives. If there is a chance in the future, I will come to Beijing to see you again."

Bai Zhi twisted the veil in her hand, looked at her with red eyes, weeping and crying, "Then we have to agree, when you come to Shangjing, you must come and find us."

Yun Xi responded with a smile.

There are a lot of boats coming and going at the dock. At the beginning of the new year, there are dignitaries and businessmen going back and forth everywhere.

The guards at the ferry crossing got orders from the Kyoto Yamen to find someone, and they were so busy that they were about to sit down for a rest when they saw a girl with a veil coming over from a long distance away.

"Hey... talking about you!"

He stopped Yunxi, raised his eyebrows and told her, "Why are you still covering your face? Take off the veil and show me."

Yun Xi didn't speak, turned her head, and glanced timidly at the servant who was accompanying her behind her.

He hurried forward, took the signboard of the Marquis of Changning and showed it to the guards, and explained: "This girl has an injury on her face, so it's inconvenient to show it to others, so I ask the guards to be more convenient."
