Chapter 9: Rivals
In Shen Mingyan's bath room, the lamp covered with a red tulle lampshade emitted a red light.
The ivory-white wooden tub is sprinkled with young magnolia petals.
The whole bath room is full of aromas.
Shen Mingyan took a deep breath, and her whole person was immersed in warm water.
Cai Qing smiled on the side: "It looks like it's completely good!"
Cai Xiang sighed: "I don't know what the third girl said." Madame didn't go out of the room for two days, and she didn't even eat much. ”
"Maybe it's because I'm tired of guarding the three girls these days, but now that the three girls are better, it's time for Mrs. to rest. Besides, Mrs. was originally happy and quiet, and it was common not to go out. ”
"Didn't you see Madame leave that day?"
"Yes some"
With a bang, Shen Mingyan emerged from the water and splashed Cai Qing's skirt with warm water.
"Ahh
Shen Ming Qin let out a long breath and slowly leaned on the edge of the bathtub, squinting his eyes slightly and saying word by word: "If it is true now, my mother must have something to hide from me!"
"Here we go again!" Cai Qing stomped his feet and said to Cai Xiang: "You guard, I'll go change my skirt." ”
"Go, go!" Cai Xiang waved his hand at Cai Qing.
Cai Qing lifted her skirt and went out, Cai Xiang saw that Shen Mingyan fell into contemplation again, silently picked up the back of Shen Mingyan's hand, and wiped it with a towel.
Shen Mingyan let Caixiang wipe it and slowly closed her eyes.
There is only the sound of water in the bath.
On that day, Shen Mingyan and her mother talked about all the people and things she could remember.
At first, Qin Qingyu only thought that her daughter was talking in her dreams, listened with a smile, and comforted her from time to time.
It's just that when it comes to the fire that Shen Xianling has been going north for a short time, Qin Qingyu can't laugh.
Speaking of Shen Xianling's non-return, Shen Mingyu begged Lu Xiuying to heal herself, and was ridiculed by Shen Mingyu from time to time, even though Shen Mingyu deliberately hid many details, Qin Qingyu still couldn't cry when she heard it.
When it came to being deceived and forced to be buried, Qin Qingyu was already holding her daughter and crying until she was exhausted.
Seeing that her mother was crying more than herself, Shen Ming leaned into her mother's ear and asked, "Mother, why do you smell the smell of fire oil?"
Qin Qingyu shook his head again and again, his voice trembling: "No! Mother, no! It's you dreaming! It must be a nightmare you had during your illness! Everything is not true, it's good that you're awake now, don't think about anything." ”
"Mother's Parent"
Without waiting for her daughter to finish speaking, Qin Qingyu pushed her daughter away and staggered out.
In the past two days, Shen Mingyan didn't dare to see her mother, and she lay quietly on the bed and thought about it, but she couldn't figure it out.
Shen Mingyan recovered from her illness, and waited for her to bathe on the third night.
Soaking in warm water and gently wiping by the maid, Shen Mingyan felt that she seemed to be a lot more sober.
"Picking incense, what do you think of the second girl?"
"Huh?" Cai Xiang was asked like this, and paused for a moment before saying, "Third girl, why did you ask about her?"
In my memory, Cai Xiang became Shen Mingyu's dowry, when did they start hooking up? Thinking of this, Shen Mingyu's tone couldn't help but raise a few points: "What's the matter? I can't ask her?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Cai Xiang saw that the master was annoyed and hurriedly laughed: "Back to the third girl, Cai Xiang knows that she is the third girl's rival." The enemy of the three girls is naturally the enemy of incense. ”
"Oh" The memories of my childhood gradually became clearer.
Cai Xiang is right, since she was a child, the second sister who was not a few months older did not like herself. If he hadn't fought with her in a class of patriarchology when he was nine years old, his mother and father would not have locked themselves in the house and invited his husband to the house alone.
That time, both of them were full of energy, and even the old gentleman with gray hair hung up the color, thinking of the tragedy at that time, Shen Mingyan couldn't help but shake her head. After the fire, Shen Mingyan almost forgot how naughty and domineering she used to be, and sometimes life can really change a person.
In the early summer class of that year, dozens of little girls from the Shen family ranging in their teens sat neatly in the class. The breeze blows on your face and listens to the teachings of the gentleman.
The old gentleman with white hair told the story of the princes of the Beacon Opera with relish.
Shen Mingyu pointed at Shen Mingyu and whispered to the girls around her: "She is the same as her mother!"
Shen Mingyan's ears are the most sensitive, and when she heard her mother being humiliated, she slapped the book on the table and shouted at Shen Mingyu: "What are you talking about!
Shen Mingyu was not to be outdone, and stood up suddenly, with a look of disdain: "Didn't you hear what Mr. said!
The old gentleman behind his ear was talking, and suddenly saw a little girl in a red dress standing with one hand pinching her waist, and what she said was right, and she couldn't help but praise: "That's right!"
Hahaha, the classroom suddenly became a mess!
With the encouragement of her husband, Shen Mingyu became more and more proud, rushed to the podium in three or two steps, stood beside the old gentleman and pointed at Shen Mingyu and laughed: "You have heard the sisters, aunts and nieces in the clan." Now even my husband says she's a curse!"
The old gentleman realized at this moment that it was two female students arguing, and he banged on the ring ruler vigorously and shouted: "Stop the noise! Stop the noise!" turned his head and pointed at Shen Mingyu again: "Go back to your seat." ”
Shen Mingyan dragged Shen Mingyu to her seat.
Before Shen Mingyu could sit down, an inkstone flew over. Shen Mingyu lowered her head and dodged the inkstone, but the black ink poured her head and face.
Shen Mingyu, who was dressed in a light blue dress over there, stepped on the low table with one foot, her two sleeves rolled up high, and when she saw Shen Mingyu being doused with ink, she gloated and said loudly: "Ugly and weird! You are jealous of the beauty of me and my mother's own life! You still want to be this trouble! It's a pity, God has eyes! How can a villain like you have a good appearance!"
Shen Mingyu's appearance and Shen Mingyu's ugliness caused a burst of laughter.
"You!" Shen Mingyu roared angrily while wiping her face: "You little slut, you are all taught by your mother's fox spirit!"
Shen Mingyan was wiping ink for her sister with a handkerchief, and when she heard her sister speak so viciously, she hurriedly covered her sister's mouth.
Shen Mingyan picked up the small desk and smashed it towards Shen Mingyu!
It just so happened that the old gentleman rushed to pull the rack and blocked the small desk, and the person also fell to the ground!
The chaotic class was suddenly quiet.
Soon it exploded again!
"Mr. was beaten!"
"Sir was knocked down!"
"The gentleman was killed"
“”
Until everyone ran out, the two masters of the fight were still looking at each other angrily.
Shen Mingyan hurriedly stepped forward to help up the old gentleman with a twitch on his face in pain, and asked repeatedly, "Sir, are you okay?"
Seeing that the adults rushed over, Shen Mingyu ran over with a handful of snot and tears: "Mother, the third sister beat me, and she also beat my husband!"
Thinking of this, Shen Mingyan punched into the water.
After that, Shen Mingyu and Shen Mingyu didn't meet for several years.
It wasn't until Qin Qingyu was burned and Shen Xianling had no news that Lu Xiuying took the mother and daughter to the mansion that the two had a chance to get in touch.
Thinking of all the difficulties she had suffered since then, Shen Mingyan couldn't help but say angrily: "Cai Xiang, remember what you said today!"
Seeing that the master had been stunned for a long time, Cai Xiang hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, yes!"
Banxiang still didn't listen to his master, and said softly: "Third girl, you haven't met her for several years. When you asked just now, the slave didn't react for a while. Cai Xiang's voice was cautious, for fear of upsetting the master, or provoking her to be stupid and stupid.
"Will Mr. Jimo really come tomorrow?" If you remember correctly, this is the tenth gentleman that my father invited for himself after dropping out of school. The previous husband was not more than three months old, and he was either angry and left, or he was ashamed to say that Shen Mingyan begged for mercy and left. This Mr. Jimo is very powerful, at least he has been teaching for more than a year.
In Shen Mingyan's memory, she hadn't seen Mr. Jimo since she got sick, and then she didn't go to school until she got married.
Seeing that the master threw away the topic just now, Cai Xiang hurriedly replied, "I will definitely come." Aunt Mo Li said at noon that Cai Qing and I would prepare things for the three girls to go to class. ”
"Okay," Shen Mingyan said, closing her eyes again.
