Chapter 365

Du Xiaoli was most interested in the herbs that could be seen everywhere, so they identified the herbs along the way.

"Master uncle."

They had just come to the courtyard of Hu Yijian when a drug boy in his teens opened the door of the courtyard.

"Where's the master?"

"Shizu is reading in the back yard." Yaotong said, "I'll report it."

The medicine boy then flashed in from a corner of the yard, quickly returned to the front and said, "Shizu, please go in."

Du Xiaoli followed Niujing to the back yard. Unexpectedly, there was a big locust tree in the backyard. The dense leaves covered almost half of the yard.

Hu Yijian was reading under the big locust tree, but when they went in, he was leaning back on the rocking chair with the medical book on his face. I don't know whether he fell asleep before Yaotong came in.

"Shifu, the younger martial sister is coming." Niu Jing said.

"I've seen you, master." Du Xiaoli saluted Hu Yijian.

Hu Yijian took down the book and said, "Xiaoli, when did you arrive? Just three children said that Niujing came, but I didn't expect you to come."

"Just arrived. I want to see the master first." Du Xiaoli replied.

"Ha ha, I told you yesterday that you arrived today. How was the road?" Hu Yijian smiled.

Saner brought four stools and Niu Jing sat down.

Du Xiaoli took the big box in Xu Songnian's hand and said, "this is the birthday gift that the emperor asked me to bring to the master. He said that the master always wanted Su Gu's moon screen. He found it before and gave it to the master as a gift."

"The moon screen has been found?" Hu Yijian took the box in Du Xiaoli's hand with trembling hands. Du Xiaoli opened the box and helped him take out the screen inside.

Hu Yijian reached out and touched the edge of the screen, feeling very excited.

"After all these years, I finally found it."

The general screen is painted on paper, but this screen is a piece of fine silk, embroidered with a man and a woman snuggling up under a tree and looking up at the full moon in the air.

Du Xiaoli looked at the tree embroidered on the screen. The tree was the locust tree in front of them!

"Master, this tree..."

Hu Yijian nodded and said, "yes, the tree on the screen is the locust tree in the yard. Unexpectedly, she only came once and remembered the appearance of the tree."

"Is she Su Gu?" Du Xiaoli asked softly.

"It's her." Hu Yijian's eyes are wet. I don't know whether it's because of happiness or missing.

Later, Hu Yijian told them a story about the screen.

A few decades ago, when Hu Yijian was a hairy boy, there was an embroidery master in the south of the Yangtze River. Her Suzhou embroidery is unique in the world. All the flowers, plants, birds and animals embroidered are vivid, which is very famous in the south of the Yangtze River.

That's su Gu.

She said she was a master, but she was not very old. She was only in her twenties when she met Hu Yijian. Hu Yijian is also in his early twenties.

At that time, his medical skills had become small. When he went to Jiangnan with his master, he met her on a bridge.

Su Gu had just lost her spouse at that time and was widowed at a young age. Her husband felt that she had killed her husband. Her mother felt that she had been married. Neither side recognized her and kicked her out.

She committed suicide, he saved her, and the two met.

She fell ill and had a fever because she jumped into the river.

He is a doctor, treating her and taking care of her until she recovers.

He was attracted by her gentle temperament and began to pursue her.

She loved him because of her own experience, but refused his friendship.

Because of his encouragement, Su Gu gradually perked up. Because she was good at embroidery, she saved money to open an embroidery house and supported her life with embroidery.

Soon after, Hu Yijian followed his master back to Yaowang valley. Although he was rejected, he still thought of her in his heart.

Slowly, she became famous and her life was getting better and better, but she was still single.

Once, Su Gu was asked to embroider a pair of embroidery. On her way back, she met mountain bandits and was seriously injured. At that time, he was just not far from Yaowang Valley and was met by Hu Yijian.

Although she had been separated for two years, seeing Su Gu who had been seriously injured, Hu Yijian still went crazy. Ignoring the rules of Yaowang Valley, he took her to Yaowang Valley and asked his elder martial sister to treat her.

When he was recovering, he brought her to his yard. At that time, the big locust tree was not so big and its trunk was still very thin.

He confessed to her again under the tree, but she said she could not accept him, and hurried away the next day.

At first, Hu Yijian was still very sad. Later, he slowly wanted to open up. He didn't force Su Gu to be with himself. Instead, he often sneaked out to see her in the south of the Yangtze River.

For this reason, he was punished by many people in the valley.

She was only in her thirties when she died. When he arrived, he didn't even see the last side. There was only one letter she wrote to him. In the letter, she said that she had embroidered a screen for him. It was the scene of looking at the moon under the locust tree that night. She said that she had failed to live up to his friendship in her life and hoped to meet him early in her next life.

Because he went late, many things in the embroidery room disappeared, and he didn't find the moon screen she said, but he saw the template she painted on the paper. After su Gu's death, he rarely went out of the valley. Either someone else asked him to treat his illness, or when he had the news of the screen, he went out to find the screen. But he hasn't found it for so many years. "As like as two peas," I looked for it for decades, this is the first time I saw it. It is exactly like that painting. "Hu Yi Jian rubbed the screen as if she were touching her beloved girl. "Master, meeting you is the luckiest thing for Aunt Su in her life. She must have walked with a smile when she left." Du Xiaoli comforted. "For so many years, the painting was with me. Now there is one more thing." Hu Yijian said, "when I am buried in the earth, you must bury this with me." "yes, master." Niu Jingying said. When Du Xiaoli came out of Hu Yijian's yard, his heart was a little heavy, not as relaxed as before. "Thinking about the master?" Niu Jing looked at Du Xiaoli and asked. Du Xiaoli nodded and said: "I didn't expect that there was such a sad and beautiful story between Shifu and Su Gu. Shifu has been waiting for her for so many years and looking for her for so many years. She loves Shifu, otherwise she wouldn't embroider such a screen. Shifu loves her because she hasn't married in her life. They clearly have such deep feelings, but they didn't come together. It's really sad." "Although Shifu is not with Su Gu, they all have each other in their hearts, which is also a kind of happiness." Niu Jing said, "the most pitiful thing for people is not that they can't be together after falling in love, but that they clearly live in the world but don't love him."
