第184章 往事(一更)
连舟垂首应了一声:“是。据说沁阳郡主特意相邀,叶二小姐还是以身体抱恙为由婉拒了。”

说着,连舟飞快抬头看了自家主子一眼,瞧着他清冷平静的神色,又添了一句:“其实这样也好,叶二小姐一介弱女子,之前从山崖上摔下来,受了重伤,是得好生将养休息。”

沈延川眉梢微扬。

弱女子?
她倒真是和这几个字毫无关系。

若真是伤重至极,也不能在短短一天之内,就将那么多掌柜全都赶了出来,彻底收回对那些铺子的掌控权。

无非是她不愿来罢了。

沈延川点了点头:“是挺严重,回头再送点补品过去。”

“是。”

连舟立刻应了。

其实自他们从山上回来,定北侯府就没少往叶府送东西,不过既然主子又亲口发了话,那自然是要再精挑细选,多送一些的。

沈延川目光微抬,看向前方。

巍峨庄重的皇宫静静伫立,傍晚的余晖洒落,琉璃瓦反射出淡淡辉光,红墙高耸,令人敬畏。

沈延川掸了掸衣衫,音调散漫。

“走吧。今晚估计很是热闹。”

……

天色渐暗,华灯初上。

叶初棠姐弟几人直接上了二楼,包了个临街的包厢。

将窗子支开,能瞧见楼下街道之上游人如织,到处灯影摇曳。

空气中飘来淡淡的桂花香,沁人心脾。

叶雲风拎了酒上桌,掌心一拍,清冽的酒香就飘散开来。

叶初棠嗅着这熟悉的味道,依稀又想起来许多往事。

半晌,她唇角微弯,笑道:
“不愧是阿兄最喜欢的酒。”

听她主动提起,叶雲风下意识接道:“那可不!以阿兄的酒量,这些都不够他自己喝的呢!”

说完,叶雲风才意识到什么,嘴角笑意一凝。

“……可惜再没这机会了。”

叶铮不好饮酒,但叶西霆却是天生的好酒量,甚至偷偷带阿言和阿风一起喝。

阿风硬扛,阿言却是一杯倒,被拖回去呼呼大睡了一整天。

叶初棠调侃道:“阿言少喝点儿,不然等会儿可没人背你回去。”

叶雲风压下心中伤感,哈哈一笑:“就是!三哥你意思意思就行了!”

叶璟言也笑,坚持让他倒满。

“我酒量虽不及你,但比起以前却是强多了。尽管倒便是。”

三年前他们南下逃荒的时候,大雪封路,天寒地冻,实在是冷得不行了。

阿姐不知道从哪儿搞来了一坛酒,一起分了。

冷酒暖身。

叶璟言现在还清晰记得酒入喉肠,浑身发烫的感觉。

叶雲风来了兴趣,立刻照做:“好嘞!”

见阿兄跟前都有酒,小五立刻举起小手,眼巴巴往酒坛子里看。

——她还没有呢!

叶雲风轻轻敲了下她的脑门。

“没伱的份儿喽!”

小五不死心,可怜兮兮地扭头看向叶初棠,两只小手轻轻晃着她的衣袖。

叶初棠:“小孩儿不能喝酒,要不你坐旁边那桌。”

小五:“……”

她认命地收回了自己的小手。

下一秒,叶初棠递过来一盅银耳莲子羹。

小五眼睛一亮。

就在这时,窗外忽然传来遥遥的一声爆响。

咻——嘭!

绚烂的烟花在黑色的夜空盛放,炫目流彩。

叶初棠端起茶杯,递至唇边,瞧着那窗外远处的景色,弯了弯眼睛。

“今天是个好日子,理应一醉方休。”

The Duke’s Delicate Heart in His Palm is a Black-hearted Lotus

侯爷的掌心娇是朵黑心莲
Author:

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
