"How are they, Madame?" asked Manna. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Meng Ye choked up and said, "Mrs. Ou has been escorted back to the Ou family's old house, and the other family members have all been dismissed. ”

"What about Ouyang?" Manna continued.

"The master had arranged in advance and did not let Ou Yang return to his hometown with them, and now no one knows his whereabouts. Meng Ye said.

"No news is the best news, at least leaving the only blood and blood of the Ou family. "That's the only thing that comforts Manna.

"It's all my fault, I didn't take a good look at him. Meng Ye blamed himself, he raised his head, not wanting tears to fall, but his voice betrayed him.

Manna tried to lift him up, but he fell to his knees, tears falling down his hard armor. This is probably the first time Manna has seen him cry since she knew Meng Ye for ten years, Manna patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have done your best." ”

I saw Meng Ye crying like a child buried in Manna's arms, while repeating to himself: I shouldn't leave to get water, I should guard him every step of the way, he won't die......"

"It's not your fault. Manna comforted Meng Ye, but everything seemed meaningless. For so many years, Meng Ye has always been by Manna's side to help her, protect her, and be her strongest backing, but now he is like a fragile and helpless child.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry........" Manna said countless times in her heart, hoping that Meng Ye would forgive him.

Ai Wen came to visit the second lady Kemena but was politely refused because she was unwell, she returned to the pavilion, Xiaobi was preparing the things to be used for the change of seasons, Xiaobi packed a large package, and summoned other maids to help move it away and throw it away.

Ai Wen asked, "What is this, why do you have to throw it away?"

"Mrs. Hui, these are all old things that were useless before, and they are not needed. Xiao Bi tugged at the side.

They all told Ai Wen that the pavilion had been preserved to this day as it had been ten years ago, and that it was regularly taken care of, and that King Gele would occasionally come to see it. They said that everything was waiting for the left wing to come back, but everything here was so foreign to Ai Wen, she always felt that she was living in the shadow of another. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, she called Xiaobi and said, "Wait." “

"Ma'am. “

"Put these things here. Ai Wen said.

"But madam, these things are very dirty, so let Xiaobi throw them away, so as not to dirty the blanket. "Xiao Bidao.

"It doesn't matter. Saying that, Ai Wen wanted to open it up and take a look.

Xiaobi stopped and said, "Madam, it's too dirty, let Xiaobi come." “

A strong smell of mold came to the nostrils, wrapped in the dust of the ancient era, Xiaobi carefully opened it, so as not to fly too much dust, the cloth bag included broken table and chair handles, some shabby clothes, useless wine glasses, broken lamp holders, some shabby calligraphy and paintings, etc., it seemed that there was nothing to watch.

Ai Wen picked out a word, she shook the ashes, and spread it on the ground, like a draft study, with a string of dates written on it, and three three words, Xiaobi turned it over and read it out, and said, "Earl's Court." “

"Earl's Court?" Ai Wen repeated, and then asked, "Where is Earl's Court?"

"Xiaobi knows that the former Xiangguo Mansion is the Earl's Palace. "Xiao Bidao.

"Oh. Ai Wen turned out a few more words, although the paper has been piled up for many years, but from the yellowing and rotten layers of the paper, it can be seen that these words should have been written in different periods. Ai Wen took out one of them, it was not a word, but a painting of two teapots or vases, which didn't seem to make much sense. In the next one, the last word has been bitten off by insects and ants, leaving only one "丿", and the other two words can be vaguely recognized as the word "mysterious".

"What's the mystery?" Ai Wen thought to herself.

Just as she was thinking, a fiery red candle attracted Aiwen's attention, she picked it up and blew it gently, the dust drifted in the sunlight, and she coughed lightly twice. This candle is not the same as what is used on weekdays, it is much thicker, and the outer surface is wrapped in gold carved tin foil, which looks extremely delicate, and it is a waste to throw away the good candle before it has been used, Ai Wen put it away.

"Heaven-life-all things. Xiaobi read the words on a piece of paper.

I saw Ai Wen's eyes suddenly flicker, the candle in her hand became blurred, and after a while, her eyes became clear again, and she said, "What's wrong?"

The maids next to him asked, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

"Didn't you notice it just now, it looks like the ground is shaking?" Ai Wen thought there was an earthquake.

"No, I don't. The answer was the same.

Could it be that she was just confused? Ai Wen shook her head.

Xiaobi walked over and helped Ai Wen and said, "Madam, have you been squatting for too long and are a little dizzy?"

"I'm fine. Ai Wen asked again, "What did you just say?"

"It's the words on this paper, it's so vague that it's hard to recognize. Xiaobi replied.

"This candle seems to have been brought back by Sister Ling'er before. One of the maids said suddenly.

It was the dead Ling'er's things, Ai Wen suddenly seemed to click on them, and she asked, "Are you sure it's Ling'er's?"

"Well, that's right, there was no candle once, I was going to use it for it, but before Sister Ling'er reprimanded it, I was still strange at the time, this candle is not used to burn, and it is still kept for what to do. The maid said.

Except that it is larger than the usual candles, it is no different from other candles, why is Ling'er so precious about it.

Ai Wen asked the maids to find out all the relics that could be recognized as Ling'er from the old things, Ai Wen thought, on the day Ling'er was burned to death, it rained heavily and nothing was left, Ai Wen wanted to use these relics to build a tomb for Ling'er, hoping to give her a home, hoping that she could rest in peace.

She found a quiet place in the back mountain to bury her relics, surrounded by small yellow flowers. No matter what reason Ling'er had deceived Ai Wen, Ling'er did die because of Ai Wen, which made Ai Wen feel guilty all her life. She is also the only one who is willing to confess the truth to Ai Wen.

Ai Wen took the candle out of Ling'er's relics alone, maybe she just wanted to keep some thoughts. But at night she regretted it, and the big red candle on the table always seemed to look at her like a pair of eyes. Ai Wen simply wanted to burn it, so she put the wick in front of the lamp and waited for the spark to ignite little by little. But the strange thing is that Ai Wen lit it for a long time, but the candle didn't catch fire.
