Chapter 230 Farewell
Although Xuanyuan Yan was always cold on weekdays, he was almost always responsive to Shangguan Qingyue's requests. Although he was strict in teaching, causing her to be spanked a lot, he would also give her ointment to remove scars.
Shangguan Qingyue stared at her pair of white and slender hands for a long time. Except for the calluses on the places where she always needs to press the strings when playing the piano, her hands were almost flawless.
That ointment was really useful, and it must have been expensive, but Xuanyuan Yan acted very casual when he gave it to her.
Shangguan Qingyue, who was sitting quietly on the sofa in the hall, suddenly stood up and walked out. Zhang Da Niu, who was accompanying her, was startled, and after she came to her senses, she hurried to catch up.
"Sister Big Girl, tell my family that I have something to do and I will eat dinner in my room and won't be with them.
By the way, tell Little Stone that the master will be leaving tomorrow, so if he has any gifts to give, he should prepare them quickly.
After giving the instructions, she went straight into her study, and the oil lamp in the room stayed on all night.
Baili Nanqing and the others already knew that Xuanyuan Yan was leaving. Even the pregnant Li Lanxiang was supported by Li Dali and stood at the entrance of the village to see him off.
Xuanyuan Yan looked around but didn't see the familiar figure, and even the little carrot head with white hair on his head was nowhere to be found. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't disappointed, but he was used to keeping his emotions introverted, so he didn't show it at all.
Li Dali carried a large backpack and handed it to Xuan Si, who looked the most burly. Baili Nanqing said:
"Mr. Yuan left in such a hurry that he didn't have time to prepare any decent gifts. This basket is filled with food made in Yue'er's workshop. It is durable and best eaten on the road. I wish you a safe journey."
Xuanyuan Yan said goodbye to everyone one by one and was about to get on the carriage when he suddenly heard a familiar sound of a piano. After listening carefully, he quickly guessed who was playing the piano.
Finally, he fixed his gaze on a thick pear tree not far to the right. The sound of the piano came from there. It was a farewell song - "Yangguan Sandie".
The sound of the piano was sometimes childish but smooth and free, and sometimes unfamiliar but full of emotion. What else did he not understand? The two naughty kids finally showed some interest, which was worth his painstaking teaching for so long.
He said nothing, just listened quietly. Sometimes the corners of his mouth slightly raised, sometimes he frowned, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The teaching time is still too short!
At the end of the song, a big and a small boy came out from behind the tree obediently, holding a lot of things in their hands.
Shangguan Qingyue worked tirelessly all night, and finally finished crocheting a large bunch of sunflowers at dawn. She put them in a bamboo vase, giving people a sense of prosperity.
She handed it to Xuanyuan Yan and said:
"Mr. Guan loves these sunflowers very much. Now that their blooming season has passed, I thought of crocheting a bouquet of everlasting flowers for you.
This flower grows towards the sun and can illuminate all darkness. I wish you a bright future. "
As she spoke, she took out a pot of exquisitely trimmed roses and said with some embarrassment:
"This is the thorny red flower I improved. I expected it to bloom elegant purple flowers, but unfortunately there are only a few small buds and the color cannot be seen. I give it to you. If it is as I expected in the future, you can name it "Moon Palace Fairy."
Xuanyuan Yan chuckled and said:
"Your name is quite unique this time. I hope you won't disappoint me. If the buds are too ugly, I will have them thrown away."
Shangguan Qingyue had long been accustomed to this person's hard words and soft heart, so he didn't care at all. He looked down at Xiao Shitou:
"It's your turn."
Xiao Shitou handed the scroll he had been holding in his arms to Xuanyuan Yan and said:
"I drew a picture. Sir, please don't open it now. Look at it on the way. Otherwise, I will be embarrassed."
When it comes to painting, Xuanyuan Yan suddenly remembered something and looked at Shangguan Qingyue:
"You are not allowed to go back on your promise to give me the album. Remember to send someone to deliver it to the capital when the paintings are ready."
Well, she thought she could get away with it, but she didn't expect the other party to have such a good memory.
Shangguan Qingyue nodded resignedly, "I wish you a safe journey, sir. I bid you farewell here."
She and Xiao Shitou bowed respectfully. To be honest, after being a student for so long, this was the first time she had to perform such a formal greeting.
I really feel reluctant to leave.
Suppressing the bitterness in her eyes, Shangguan Qingyue smiled brightly and waved goodbye. After parting today, she didn't know if there would be a chance to see him again in the future, so she never said "goodbye" from beginning to end.
Past memories flashed through her mind one by one as vivid pictures, finally settling on the already blurry carriage. Suddenly, a childish voice rang out:
"Ruoxi, can we see Mr. again?"
"The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions. That's life, baby. As long as we are all well, what does it matter if we see each other or not?"
When being called "baby" affectionately suddenly, little Shitou, who is less than six years old, blushed immediately. His Ruoxi really dotes on him!
……
Over the past month, Nan Rongzhi was tormented by the clinic's affairs, and his once handsome face was full of vicissitudes. He was puzzled. How could the clinic, which had always been a worry-free place, have so many troubles when he was out inspecting it?
If it wasn't for that brat, he would have dared to cut off his head and let people kick it like a ball!
At this time, he was sitting in a shabby teahouse, drinking tea that looked like water for washing pots. Suddenly, a gust of dust flew up, choking him and making him cough repeatedly. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and his mouth was full of dirt.
He could no longer control his temper, which he had been suppressing for a long time. He angrily threw the tea bowl with two cracks in his hand and gathered his strength to curse.
Unexpectedly, before he could even say anything, he saw the person who got off the carriage. His anger was forced back, and he had to swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
The consequence of forcing himself to hold it back was that he started to hiccup continuously.
"Hiccup, hiccup, Yan'er, you, hiccup, why are you here?"
“Just passing by.
"My little uncle, why did you come to this barren land to suffer when you had a good life in the capital? Did you flirt with some girl and get thrown out by your grandfather?"
Nan Rongzhi's old face was as red as charcoal fire because of shame, but at this time, his face was covered with dust and no one could see it. Being ridiculed so rudely by Xuanyuan Yan, he was so angry that he hiccuped more frequently and could not speak a complete sentence.
He said stumblingly:
"You, hiccup, hiccup, I don't have any! Hiccup..."
The hiccups were too frequent, and Xuanyuan Yan was very annoyed. He grabbed Nan Rongzhihe's arm and pinched the Neiguan acupoint on his wrist with the tip of his thumb, gradually increasing the force.
Nan Rongzhihe almost cried when he heard a cry of "Ah". He sniffed hard and said aggrievedly:
"You are really my good nephew. You don't need to use such heavy hands to press the acupuncture points!"
"My uncle comes from a medical family, but he doesn't know how to relieve hiccups. If grandpa knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would no longer acknowledge you as his son.
Your good nephew has to rush back to the capital, so I won't drink tea with you. Goodbye."
"Eh? Wait, kid, wait for me, I'll go back with you!
"Alas, I really owe you two a lot. If you want to have a quarrel, just have a quarrel. Why do you have to torment me? Isn't the wine in the city delicious? I came all the way here to drink swill!"
