Chapter 10: The Past
In the afternoon, she followed the old lady to kneel in the hall and listen to the scriptures, Leyu put her hands together and stared at the Bodhisattva with kind eyebrows high above, and couldn't help but be in a trance. Are there really immortals in this world? If not, how did they go back to five years ago and have a chance to live again? If so, then why do they only enjoy the offerings of the world, and do not care about good or evil, or the suffering of the world?
In the past, Leyu didn't believe in Buddhism, nor did she believe that there really was a Buddha, but now, she didn't dare to assert it like this, so she should be in awe. When I take revenge, even if there is retribution and I have to go to eighteen layers of hell, I will admit it.
The old lady listened to Chen's talk about Buddhism, but she was still thinking about the family affairs of Cheng Wangfu. If you want to say that the characters in the family are fully matched, it's just that Ling Ye's kid is still uncertain, and he is afraid that Xian'er will be a little angry at first, but women don't all come over like this. Xian'er, this kid has a plan, and sooner or later he will hold Ling Ye firmly.
Thinking of An's again, a glimmer of light flashed in the old lady's seemingly cloudy old eyes. She experienced the royal family when she was a child, and later married into the Xiao family to take charge of the huge family, what kind of person she has never seen. An's mind is like a mirror in her heart, if it really happens, she will naturally take over this matter and protect that kid.
With such a calculation, this family business is not unacceptable, forget it, go back and ask Xian'er what she means, she must like it herself.
After speaking, the old lady was helped back by Mother Han and Mother Qiu to rest, and the four Leyu sisters also went back to rest.
Le Yu lived in the room on the left, Le Wan lived on the right, the two shared a hall, just lay down on the bed, Le Wan came over with a chessboard, and said: "Hurry up, what kind of sleep in the daytime, it's time for dinner in another hour." As soon as she got started, she found that Le Wan's chess style was step-by-step, extremely meticulous, Le Yu held her forehead with a headache, simply brushed the chessboard, and said with a smile: "Forget it, I can't play the third sister, I admit defeat."
Le Wan glanced at her dissatisfied, "It's really no chess product, if you can't play it, you just smash it, you have to start and finish everything you do, how can you be deterred because of difficulties?"
Le Yu shook her head with a smile and said: "It also depends on what it is, it's just a game, it's not worth taking seriously.
Le Wan's expression was slightly deep when she heard this, how serious Le Yu's words were with a smile she didn't dare to guess, in this huge Xiao family, she had seen too much over the years, so much so that she kept silent and turned herself into an invisible person.
Le Yu also smiled, pinched a chess piece as white as jade, and said playfully: "My sister is a smart person, and I am not a person who is angry indiscriminately, and things that have nothing to do with my sister will naturally not involve the quiet life of my sister and Aunt Cheng." ”
Le Wan understood what she meant, this was not in her way, if it was in the way, it would naturally be burned. She concealed her horror and took a sip of the teacup, these days she looked coldly, these four sisters seemed to be a different person, although she deliberately covered it up, people close to her did not feel it, but she, an outsider who was far away, saw a little different.
But what does this qiē have to do with himself? What does the other person have to do with him except his aunt? The hypocritical and vicious eldest sister or the ruthless and indifferent father?
Having made up her mind, Le Wan put down the teacup with a calm smile, and said with a straight face: "What the fourth sister said is that this has nothing to do with me. ”
Le Yu lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes were long and curled, casting a shadow of crow green under her eyes, and she said with a little self-deprecation after a long time: "Am I stupid?"
Le Wan was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, she understood, and couldn't help but show a trace of sympathy, she is not easy, such an identity. He pursed his lips and said, "I can't blame you." It was also by chance that I saw something before I saw her clearly. ”
As soon as he said this, he fell down on the cover, and Le Wan said calmly: "Do you remember the death of the white cat raised by the old lady when you were nine years old?"
The old lady had a snow-white petite cat at that time, and the old lady was very fond of it, but one day she suddenly disappeared, and finally found the body in the flowers behind the Tingxue Hall, the blood stains were extremely miserable, and she was tortured and killed.
The old lady was furious, accusing Le Yu of being vicious at a young age, and even more resentful of her elders, that time Le Yu knelt in the ancestral hall for three days, almost collapsed and fell into a coma.
Le Wan continued: "I hid and played in the hole that I accidentally found in the rockery, and I saw her and Jinshu abusing the cat to death together. The viciousness and hideousness on her beautiful face at that time, I will remember it for the rest of my life. ”
Le Yu was silent, she saw it but didn't stand up to return her innocence, naturally she knew that Le Xian's status was afraid of her. She couldn't blame Le Wan, after all, she didn't have to take risks for herself, not to mention that even if she said it, the old lady wouldn't believe that her favorite granddaughter would do such a thing.
Xiao Lexian, your hatred has been so long, Le Yu closed her eyes painfully, and when she opened them again, it was already light, and her beautifully shaped pink lips hooked a smile of indifference.
At the same time, Le Xian was in the old lady's room, and the old lady took her hand and seduced her step by step: "Ling Ye, this child is still good, I have seen it since I was a child, although people outside say that they are unscrupulous, but those daughters of everyone are shameless and seduce men, how can they blame Ling Ye completely? One day with me, the An's will not succeed. Tell me, what do you think? If you nod your head, I'll talk back to Ahn. ”
Le Xian bit her lip, her heart was full of resentment, and she wasted herself to be filial to her in every way, but at this time she still wanted to push herself out, and asked herself what she thought, you have said a lot, can I still slap your face and say that Cheng Lingye is not good?!
She lowered her head, shook her head appropriately, and whispered softly: "Grandmother thinks about Xian'er wholeheartedly, how can Xian'er not know? “
The old lady didn't see her drooping head and the expression of cold resentment on her face, and patted her flesh and blood hands with satisfaction: "That's good, with grandmother here, I will definitely arrange it for you." “
Early in the morning of the second day, the Xiao family was busy and prepared to go back, and the old lady gave Chen five hundred taels of sesame oil and silver, and Chen Huan happily sent them down the mountain and turned around without mentioning it.
Le Yu has a problem with choosing a seat, and she didn't sleep well last night, so she will be a little groggy and lean on Gu's body all the way to take a nap.
The convoy winded into the city gate for a while, and Le Yu was almost rolled to the ground by the carriage that braked sharply. Gu Shi helped Le Yu and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, why did it stop suddenly?"
Fang Jing hurriedly lifted the curtain of the car to ask, and came back after a while and said, "It was said that there was a girl on the side of the road who sold herself to the funeral master, and there were too many people to see the excitement and there was a bit of chaos." “
Hearing this, Le Yu gently lifted the rose red Hangzhou silk curtain up a little gap, because of the height, she clearly saw a burlap amateur figure kneeling on the side of the road, seventeen or eighteen years old, long black hair side shoulders braided into braids, melon seeds with two clear eyes like mercury embedded in the face, the bridge of the nose is high, very beautiful, but the expression is cold and angry.
