Chapter 237: Destruction
On the carriage, Qiao Ya could no longer suppress her curiosity: "Who is Dong Xun's sister? Did she live in the Luo family before? So where is she now? Why don't you come to Dong Xun?"
Xue Ying didn't raise her head: "If we wanted to tell you, we would have told you a long time ago." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Qiaoya puffed out her mouth and closed her voice a little angrily.
Dong Xun comforted: "It's not that Miss doesn't want to tell you, it's that I don't want to say it, and besides, in fact, there are many things that Miss doesn't even know." ”
"But if you don't tell Miss, she won't be able to help you. ”
"You don't need Miss's help in this matter, anyway...... My sister has passed away. ”
Qiao Ya wanted to ask again, but Xue Ying made a look, so she had to change the words that came to her mouth to something else: "Miss, what is the Pangu token you bought?"
Dong Xun said: "I was about to ask too." ”
"Well, do you remember the set of "Jianghu Yan History" that I liked very much a while ago, I worked hard to collect six volumes, but I later heard that there is actually a last volume of this set of books, but this last volume is extremely rare, and now there is only one in Anjing City, which is hidden in the Pangu Tower. ”
Dong Xun's expression was unusually calm: "You spent 120,000 taels of silver just to read a copy of "The History of Jianghu Yan"?"
"I can't say that......" Xue Ying was obviously a little weak-hearted, "You can also read other books, I heard that there are all the books in the Pangu Tower, if I can go in and take a few turns, maybe I will be reborn!"
"I don't know if it's going to be reborn, it's true that I'm so angry that I want to pick your skin now. Dong Xun rolled his eyes, "Do you really think that you are a rich man who spends a lot of money and does not change his color? It is not easy for Miss Xi to make money, how can you spend so much?"
"That's it, the next time Miss Xixi comes back, you will be good-looking. "Qiaoya also came to join in the fun.
Xue Ying smiled: "Okay, okay, it's a big deal to be beaten by her, can't I promise not to cry?"
Looking at her unsparing appearance, Dong Xun and Qiaoya said in unison: "Hooligan!"
As soon as she returned to the gate of the garden, Aunt Shunzi greeted her with a anxious face, and she stopped talking.
Xue Ying's originally relaxed expression suddenly condensed: "What happened?"
"This ......" Aunt Shunzi pointed behind her, and Xue Ying crossed her into the courtyard, her face brushed and stretched.
The garden was full of peach trees, which had already borne bones, and in a few days the peach blossoms would bloom, and she had been looking forward to it. Now, the yard is full of stumps, and the bones that have grown out have been "pruned", and the ravaged and dilapidated appearance is even more desolate than in winter.
Xue Ying closed her eyes to stabilize her emotions, and asked Aunt Shunzi, who was following behind, "What's the matter?"
"Not long after you left, a large number of people came, saying that it was the rule of the house that the new peach branches and flower bones should be cut off every year before the peach blossoms bloomed. ”
"Why?"
"It is said that the second lady is allergic to peaches, and she almost suffocated because she ate a peach for a few years, and since then, whether it is peach blossoms or peaches, she is not allowed to appear again in the house. ”
Qiaoya shouted: "Oh yes, I heard Zhao Zhuangtou say that the peach blossom wine and peach wine brewed in Jiuquan Bizhuang were originally very popular, and they were also called "peach fairy wine", but then somehow a rule was issued, saying that peach wine and peach blossom wine are not allowed to enter the house, even if they want to give it away, they will be sent directly to someone else's house - it turned out to be because of this." ”
Dong Xun looked at Xue Ying with some concern: "Miss, are you okay?"
Xue Ying gritted her teeth: "It's okay, since it's the rules of the house, what else can I say?" It doesn't matter, there are no peach blossoms here, there are more in Jiuquan and other villages! Pack up your things, let's go!"
"Miss," Aunt Shunzi called out to her, "Aunt Sun had an argument with those people just now, and now she is a little unwell and has already laid down. ”
Xue Ying's expression changed: "Have you invited a doctor?"
Aunt Sun said that she was fine, and if she wanted to hire a doctor, she had to get a note from the third lady. ”
"No, you let Uncle Shunzi invite, who dares to stop the doctor from coming in, and then drag it in front of me if he is disabled!" Xue Ying finished speaking, striding towards Aunt Sun's room.
Dong Xun followed, and Qiaoya asked Aunt Shunzi: "Mother, what should we do now?"
"Go and ask your dad to get a doctor. Aunt Shunzi sighed, "I hope Aunt Sun is really okay, otherwise...... I don't even dare to think about the consequences. ”
Usually Xue Ying's temperament is as soft as steamed buns, and if she slaps her, it is estimated that she will ask you with a hippie smile if your hand hurts, but as long as it involves the few people she cares about, it is like lighting firecrackers with a fire fold, one by one, no one can hold it down.
Breaking this peach tree full of gardens will make her sulk for a while at most, but if Aunt Sun is ill because of the conflict, Miss will definitely fight with others, and if she doesn't make a good fuss, she will completely break with the Jian'an Hou Mansion.
But in Aunt Shunzi's opinion, no matter how much discord there is between Xue Ying and the Marquis of Jian'an, and the third lord and the third lady, the relationship between her and the Xue family must not be broken, because once it is broken, there is no possibility of renewal, and then she will be completely tied to King Sui's lonely boat and swallowed up in the storm.
Although Xue Ying's footsteps were close enough to be light enough, Aunt Sun, who had originally closed her eyes and recuperated, still opened her eyes and smiled gently: "I told Aunt Shunzi that I was fine, but she still alarmed you." ”
"What do you mean by 'alarm'? If she doesn't tell me about it, that's 'alarm'. Xue Ying sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her somewhat pale face, her eyes were red and tears almost fell, "I thought you were the calmest and smartest of our group, how did you put yourself on a little thing?"
"I've been with you for too long, I'm stupid. ”
Xue Ying sniffed and tried her best to hold back her tears: "Isn't it just a few peach trees, if they want to cut them, let them cut them down, it's worth your hard work?"
"Because I know that Miss has been waiting for the peach blossoms to bloom. This Jian'an Hou Mansion has left you with too many painful memories, and having a peach blossom full yard is the most likely beauty. In Jiuquan Beizhuang, when the peach blossoms bloom every year, it is also the happiest time for the young lady, only at that time the young lady is most like a child, carefree and crazy in the peach blossom forest. Aunt Sun looked gentle, "Miss has always wanted to be a child, but it always seems that she can't get her wish. ”
Yes, since she crossed over, her wish is to live a decent childhood again, but what followed was the practice of Ganxiao Temple, the break with Xue Qi's relationship, and the fight between King Sui and the emperor, the pressure on her increased day by day, and the truly carefree days were not even a few days.
"It doesn't matter. Although Xue Ying's words were said to Aunt Sun, she actually told herself more, "I have always agreed with the view that 'all living beings are suffering', but I forgot that I am only a member of all living beings." Whether it's childhood or peach blossoms, if it's gone, it's gone, just think it's the experience of life. ”
