Shen Li, who was standing in the atrium, was on guard and gently placed the small fish under the corridor.

The lamp in front of the corridor was pitch black, and with Shen Li'an's move, it floated close to his side.

The servant put the steps, only to hear the ringing dingdong, in the middle of the car out of a plain white young woman, but see her face like a silver plate, slender figure, between the eyes raised, sad covered, full of thoughts.

She got out of the carriage, turned her back to the carriage and said, "It's here, help the master down." ”

Then, the body shook, and a man with a sick face, but still handsome, got out of the car.

The servant hurriedly grabbed half a step and helped him step by step out of the carriage.

He looked at the scene in front of him and quickly lowered his head and coughed to the side.

The little servant stepped forward, although they and Shen Li'an could only see each other's firewood door across the road, they did not forget the courtesy, knocked gently, and said respectfully: "Lord Lin of Daozhou Mansion pays a visit, please meet the master's family." ”

Shen Li thought with peace of mind: "If you don't come during the day, you must be strange when you visit at night." ”

But he was not afraid in his heart, and his feet did not move, and he asked in a deep voice, "What is the matter?"

The servant replied: "This is the old house of my family, which was entrusted to the village chief to sell before, and it is a last resort to disturb today, please make it convenient." ”

Shen Li'an heard him say that Master Lin was an old mansion, and he thought about it was Lin Xishi?

The young woman arrived, and before she could speak, a sigh had already sounded: "It's just that someone has a dream that my husband and wife must be here at three o'clock today, otherwise my wife and I will be in a big disaster, so I can only take the liberty of disturbing." ”

Shen Li'an looked at Xiaoyu and said softly, "Please wait." Then he turned around and sent the little fish into the West House and placed it, and then came to the courtyard to open the door.

The young woman entered first, walked under the flower tree, looked at the big stone, and exclaimed, "Husband, you see, this is exactly the same as what I saw in my dream. ”

Shen Li thought with peace of mind: "This is your family's old mansion, just like in your dream, what is there to be surprised about, it can only show that this Lin Xishi has not come back after marrying his wife." ”

The servant helped Lin Xishi to sit on the bamboo chair slowly, turned back, and took the hourglass, candles, incense burner, ingots, etc. from the car, it seemed that he was going to make a sacrifice.

Lin Xishi sat alone, a little unable to support it, and called softly to the young woman: "Peony, come and help me." ”

The little servant over there was cleaning up the table and took a shovel from the car, and was so busy that he naturally didn't have time to take care of him, but the young woman named Peony only looked at the big stone under the flower and turned a deaf ear to Lin Xishi's words.

"Peony, peony... cough cough cough ......" Lin Xishi was in a hurry, and couldn't help coughing.

Peony turned around, walked towards him, patted him lightly on the back, leaned him into his arms, and said softly: "Husband, relax, take care of your body, wait for the third child to set up the sacrificial table, we will finish this ritual, and your illness will naturally be cured." ”

Lin Xishi held his wife's hand tightly, and his palms were full of cold sweat.

Chang San'er was the little servant who came with him, and after he put everything in place, he handed the lit incense to Lin Xishi's hand, and then silently stepped aside.

Shen Li'an looked at the three of them, just watch out for it, and didn't say anything.

Peony picked up Lin Xishi and walked slowly to the incense case, Lin Xishi barely supported the incense case, held the incense in his hand, bowed three times to the flower tree, and immediately retreated and sat on the bamboo chair.

Chang San'er stepped forward again, moving the big stone, and there was a damp piece of dirt under the stone, and there was a faint wave of light in the soil.

The cat is in a very good spirit at night, he has been watching on the eaves for a long time, and at this time he couldn't help jumping on Shen Li'an's shoulder: "I smell the smell of fish down here." ”

Shen Li'an asked him, "What do you think is unusual about these three people?"

"I look very ordinary, and there is no one with spiritual power floating around him. ”

"Hmm. ”

After a while, Chang San'er was digging a pit and took out a jade box.

The jade box is full of green, delicate and transparent, and it is extraordinary at a glance.

"That's it, that's it, husband, do you want to see what the hell is here?" Peony's eyes wandered, and Lin Xishi's face was completely frightened.

Lin Xishi closed his eyes in fear, his face turned white, and he said tremblingly: "It's okay not to look at it, sink it into the sea in front of the bay quickly, let her go." ”

"But the concubine wants to see what that woman left here, which makes our family uneasy, and the husband is sick. ”

Lin Xishi grabbed Peony's hand and said with concern: "No, no, if something collides with you, my husband will be worried." ”

Mao Erye sniffed his little nose and whispered in Shen Li'an's ear: "There must be a fish there, and it's a carp." ”

Shen Li'an said: "How are you so sure?"

"I've eaten fish for more than 500 years, and what fish can escape my nose in this world. The cat's big words were blowing loudly, but he never knew about a fish beside him.

Shen Li'an looked at it for a while and said, "Look at that jade box, there is a faint flow of light, could it be some magic weapon?"

"I can't see it, we just have to watch it closely, if there is a slight mistake, the first strike is stronger. ”

Shen Li'an nodded silently, and one person and one cat whispered for a while, only to hear the peony over there continue: "Does the husband have me in his heart?"

"Naturally. ”

"Am I the only one?"

"You can swear to the sky!"

"Does that husband remember the peony who has been with you here for three years?"

Lin Xishi broke out in a cold sweat, his eyes flickered, and he asked intermittently, "What is Madam talking about?"

Peony's fingers crossed the jade box on the case, and the jade box was even more sparkling, like ripples in the water, and the ripples were reflected on Peony's face, illuminating her bright and moving.

At that time, she accompanied you night and night to pick up the lamp and study hard, washing and cooking for you every day, fanning you to cool off in the hot weather, and holding you in her arms in the cold. When he is busy, he goes up the mountain and goes to the sea, and when he is free, he embroiders to subsidize the family. Husband, what did you say to her?"

Peony looked at him condescendingly, although his eyes gradually became wet, but his expression was still proud.

Lin Xishi slid from the chair to the ground at once, pressing Peony's skirt, he trembled and wanted to climb onto the chair, but his legs lost a little strength.

Chang San'er lowered his head on the side, and his mother didn't call, he never dared to move.

Peony pulled out the suppressed skirt, took a step to the side, stretched out a finger, and said to him: "You say, this kindness, never dare to forget, for the rest of your life, she is alone." ”

"Peony, you, you ......"

"Are you calling me or her?"

Lin Xishi collapsed in dejection, his eyes looked at the ground, he didn't want to raise his head anymore, smiled dismally, and said to himself: "You must hate me so much, that's why you came here from the underworld to ask for my life, right?"

"Who are you talking to?" Peony looked indifferently into the distance.

"You, which peony again?"

The two of them finally looked at each other, one with pity in their eyes, and the other with doubts.
