Chapter 118 Worry
Xie Zhiyun knew that Cui Ji said that he would be back in two days, but that was a false day.

It's not that Wei Ji will definitely come back in two days.

But it was already April [-]th, and Xie Zhiyun's birthday would be celebrated in a few days. Even though she knew that there would always be accidents in marching and fighting, and that thousands of soldiers could not be dispatched at will, she was getting more and more worried.

Even if Wei Ji wrote her a short letter home, Xie Zhiyun would not be so worried.

But everything in the mansion was smooth and indifferent, and Wei Cang and Cui Ji couldn't see anything wrong, so Xie Zhiyun kept those anxieties and worries in his heart and didn't show them.

She didn't show it, but she couldn't sleep well at night.

At first, it was because it rained continuously at night, which seemed to disturb people's dreams.

She didn't let Zhao Yu and the others accompany her, she lay alone in Chunhuating's bedroom, listening to the pattering rain outside, tossing and turning, thinking long and hard, usually it was late at night before falling asleep.

After two days like this, she couldn't bear it any longer, and fell asleep during the day when she was doing accounts.

Seeing that her eyes were black and blue, Zhao Yu was very distressed, but she didn't dare to touch her, so she could only let her sleep on the table.

Grandma Jia stood outside without coming in, and looked at Xie Zhiyun's sleeping face from a distance.

When Zhao Yu withdrew, Grandma Jia sighed.

"I went to ask Mother Zhao specifically, and Mother Zhao said that the military newspaper that came earlier had told the young lady, and the other princes didn't know about it."

Zhao Yu said in a low voice: "My uncle's letter from home could be delivered within five days at the latest. It has been eight days and I haven't received it yet. Miss is in a hurry and can't sleep well at night."

Nanny Jia sighed.

But she knew from the bottom of her heart that this time the uncle was just suppressing the bandits, and he would not be in danger of his life, but the young lady was concerned about it, which made her fall into anxiety.

Some things are clear to the bystanders. This is the first time that the young lady has faced complex emotions since she grew up. Facing the long-distance travel of relatives around her, and the long-awaited family letter, she must be overwhelmed and unable to calm down.

But these Nanny Jia and Zhao Yu were not easy to persuade, the words of outsiders were too gaudy, and they were not as smooth as they thought through themselves.

In the future, my uncle will definitely have to fight outside frequently. If the miss is like this every time, this day will not be able to pass smoothly.

She had to let herself learn to wait and learn to be strong.

Nanny Jia sighed, "I hope the world will be peaceful soon."

Only on that day, maybe the uncle will stay by Miss's side for a long time and will not stay away.

They were talking in a low voice outside, and Xie Zhiyun had a dream in the room.

She dreamed that an apricot tree suddenly appeared in the yard. Time seemed to go from spring to early autumn in an instant.

She dreamed that Wei Ji's voice came from far to near, just outside the far gate of Chunhuating, his voice was as hearty as ever, and there was always a smile in his voice, which made people feel better instantly.

"Ma'am, what did I buy?"

Xie Zhijun was sitting under the apricot tree at this time, she seemed to be lying on a rocking chair, looking at the apricots all over the branches.

Hearing this voice, she dreamed that she smiled helplessly, and said, "What did you buy?"

The courtyard door was pushed open, and a tall figure appeared in front of Xie Zhiyun in an instant.

She felt the corners of her lips twitching, and she was looking up at Wei Ji with a smile, but the next moment, she saw Wei Ji was covered in blood, and he was holding his own broken arm in his hand.

Xie Zhiyun woke up suddenly.

She sat up straight suddenly, with cold sweat on her forehead, and she was panting heavily, as if there was something in her chest that prevented her from breathing smoothly.

Xie Zhiyun took a deep breath, and it took him a while to calm down, and his heartbeat gradually recovered.

At this moment, Mu Yun heard the voice inside, looked out, saw that she was already awake, and hurriedly followed in.

"Miss, would you like a cup of tea?" Mu Yun asked concerned, "Why is your face so ugly? But did you catch a cold just now?"

Xie Zhiyun shook her head, and she patted Mu Yun's hand to let her not be too busy.

Xie Zhijun closed her eyes heavily, but soon, she opened them, not daring to close them again and recall the horrible scene in her dream just now.

Mu Yun didn't know what was wrong, her face was full of worry, so Xie Zhiyun shook his head and smiled at her.

Her voice trembled a little, but she wasn't in that pain.

"It's okay, it's okay, you all go out, I'll sit for a while."

Although Mu Yun was very worried, she was always obedient, so she quickly withdrew.

Xie Zhiyun got up and came to the window, she pushed the bamboo pattern window open to let the sunlight from outside shine in.

The continuous rain shrouded the entire Yezhou in a mist, and the long-lasting dark clouds covered the sky and the sun, so that the Golden Crow could only be isolated from the clouds, making people unable to see the sun.

At this time of year, Yezhou and other places will usher in the plum rain that lasts for more than a month.

The continuous raindrops are like silk threads, connecting the sky and the earth. After the rain falls, the steamed water mist diffuses, and walking in it is like a fairyland.

Inside and outside the home, people's hearts are up and down, as if everything is soaked in rain.

Wet, cold, and irritating for no reason.

But today, suddenly there was a sunny day.

Xie Zhijun stood at the window, quietly looking at the plants and trees in the yard, at the familiar scenery at home, and at the familiar figures in the yard.

This is already her home.

She knew that she didn't like to be separated, and she didn't like to wait, just like the Lantern Festival when she was five years old, it suddenly rained coldly on that day, and she lost her mother on that day.

She doesn't remember the past, but she will always remember that she was afraid of thunder.

The winter rain fell unexpectedly, and the cold raindrops seemed to turn into ice knives, which could pierce people's hearts.

Now that she has grown up, no matter how frightened she is, she can't hide in Mother Jia's arms and cry like she did when she was a child.

She had to shield herself from the wind and rain, and she had to protect the world for Wei Ji when he was not at home.

She is no longer alone or helpless, behind her is the entire Su State Duke's Mansion, so many new relatives, and the people of the entire Yezhou and even the eight states.

The first separation made her see her feelings more or less clearly. She deeply realized that she was worried about Wei Ji, missed Wei Ji, and perhaps liked Wei Ji a little bit.

She knew very well in her heart that Wei Ji would be fine, no matter sooner or later, he would definitely return to this house, and greet her with a smile.

Maybe he would tell her that they would go into the mountains to pick apricots in autumn.

enough.

Everything is just right.

A nightmare will never become a reality, even if it was a reality, Xie Zhijun will turn the nightmare into a sweet dream.

Just like every time in the past.

She believes in herself and Wei Ji, they can change the future.
