Chapter 1365

In the north wing, the rules for officials in mourning were no longer as strict as in the early years. For example, officials were required to eat, sleep and eat at the grave of the deceased, not eat meat, not take a bath, not shave their heads, and not change clothes. These rules have gradually become less clear.

But there are a few points that need to be strictly followed. For example, the couple must not sleep in the same room, the family cannot hold weddings or other happy events during the period, and they cannot drink alcohol, and of course they cannot seek pleasure.

If any point in this is seen and used to make a fuss, this official's career will basically be over.

After Yu Sujun said, "You drank last night," she felt particularly heavy-hearted.

No one knows better than her how much Shi Chengyi cares about his career.

He was also full of enthusiasm to serve the court and bring honor to his ancestors. Especially last year, Cheng Yi went to Yucheng as the right pacification envoy to provide disaster relief. Although it was hard, he was so high-spirited at that time.

It feels like he has a lot of strength to use and a lot of blood to shed. There is light in his eyes...

But now?

Shi Chengyi was always in a "bad mood", his eyes were dim, and even his posture was no longer straight.

The couple sat opposite each other and ate porridge, steamed buns, and pickled vegetables. The same old three things, as usual.

At this time of day, the dining table could be heard from Yu Sujun's chattering.

She liked to talk to him and he liked to listen to her.

Occasionally he would answer her a few times, which also showed that he was listening carefully. Sometimes he would also tell her about his own experiences, and she also listened with great interest.

The best time for us to spend time together in a day is during the three meals.

But today is particularly quiet.

She sat up straight and chewed slowly.

Occasionally, the sound of porcelain clinking gently could be heard on the dining table, but there was no human voice.

This depressing atmosphere made Shi Chengyi unable to hold back and he cleared his throat, "Su Jun, I was in a bad mood just now."

Yu Sujun still didn't say anything.

I'm in a bad mood...I've been using this excuse quite frequently lately.

She didn't say anything, not because she was angry.

Instead, the couple had been married for more than ten years and had never had a quarrel. At first it was because of estrangement, but later it was because of love.

Yu Sujun thought there was no rift between them. But now she realized that if there was even a little bit of unhappiness, her asking him to marry her would have become a reason for her to lose her integrity.

She didn't even dare to ask him whose scent the powder on her body belonged to.

Shi Chengyi saw that he had broken the silence and took the initiative to hand over the ladder. However, Yu Sujun still did not say anything. He became angry again and said in a cold tone, "Why, are you angry with me because I drank a little?"

Yu Sujun swallowed the last spoonful of porridge in small sips, gently wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and then said in a calm tone, "My husband didn't come back last night, and I was very worried. Zhou Ge'er told me not to panic, and he said, 'Father is a sensible man.'"
