In the Wuhua Courtyard of Shen Mansion, Jiang served Shen Wendi for breakfast first, and then personally added tea, and said with a smile: "Hao'er has been a lot more stable in recent days, I think of this little lady from all over Beijing, and there are many people of the right age, should it be time for Hao'er to see a good family?" ”

Shen Wendi's appearance is very similar to Shen Wenhan, but despite Shen Wendi's thinner weight, hearing this, Shen Wendi's hand was stunned, and he looked back at Jiang Shi for a long time, and then said slowly: "This matter is not in a hurry, let it go first...... That tooth woman, don't contact me in the future, so as not to hear any rumors in the second room. ”

Jiang Shi's face was full of color, and said: "I know this, you can rest assured!" It's just a matter of matchmaking, the mother-in-law doesn't know that it's our outstretched hand, who let the second room and two hearts and eyes grow on the woman's belly, no wonder us. ”

After sending Shen Wendi away, Jiang sat down with a comfortable face, slowly had breakfast, and said to Mama Wu on the side: "Mama, you say, why hasn't there been any movement in the second room these days?" ”

Mama Wu added tea to Jiang Shi and said, "Yes, since the second lady came back from Dabaoci Temple, there has been no sound, and she has been hiding in the room all day, saying that she was frightened by the fire, and she has been sick." The second master didn't go to make trouble, it was all up to the second master to spoil those little concubines like something. ”

Jiang snorted coldly: "Hmph, make trouble? How else could she make trouble, and she could still get that vixen out of Shen Wenhe's arms? The second room is now depraved like this, and our Hao'er has to behave well in front of the old man. Now...... The Shen family is such a grandson! The Shen family has a huge family business, and I don't believe that the old man's eyes have always been on that kid of unknown origin. Where is my Hao'er not as good as him? ”

Mama Wu smiled: "But what! The third young master is now older, and he is filial, and he has a good life! ”

Shen Hao has been extremely obedient these days, and he also used his own body to buy a bracelet of good color for the Jiang family. Jiang proudly stroked the blood jade bracelet on his wrist and said, "Speaking of that fire, the last time we went to visit the Li Mansion, the Zhou family was still unconscious, and Qiao Yatou didn't see it, this hair is burned, and I can't show up for a year and a half, and I don't know if my body is burned out ......or not."

More than a month has passed since the inexplicable fire in Dabaoci Temple, although Li Shuqiao's hands and feet are still scarred, the pain in her heart is finally no longer entangled, and her hair has grown an inch. The two girls put the hats on Li Shuqiao, followed her tremblingly, and waited for her to go to the eldest lady's residence.

Li Shuwen was sitting in front of the bed to change Zhou's dressing, when she heard the girl report that Li Shuqiao was coming, she was heartbroken, and continued to move on her hands, Zhou's back was burned extensively, although more than a month has passed, most of the wounds have scabbed and improved, but they often have fever, and people have no energy, and now they can only lie on the couch and cannot move easily.

Li Shuqiao entered the house and walked directly to Zhou's bed, and was just about to open his mouth to speak, when he saw the red and white scars on Zhou's back, red and swollen, and occasionally pus and blood, he jumped down and subconsciously took a step back. After Zhou's injury, Li Shuwen took care of her every step, and Li Shuqiao was injured and had inconvenient hands and feet, so this was the first time she came to visit Zhou. Zhou Shi was lying on the couch and looked up at Li Shuqiao with difficulty, and a smile appeared on his pale face: "Qiao'er, can you go?" Does it still hurt in your body? ”

Li Shuwen lowered her head silently, and didn't look at Zhou and Li Shuqiao, who looked relieved, Li Shuqiao could have left a long time ago, but there would be some pain, but she was afraid of leaving too many scars, so she stubbornly stood up until the injury was completely healed before she came to see her mother. Li Shuqiao walked over slowly, looked at Zhou with burning eyes, knelt in front of the couch, and said, "Mother, I know who wants to harm me!" ”

Zhou was stunned, she didn't expect Li Shuqiao to say to her the first thing she said after the catastrophe was actually this, but after all, it was her daughter who had loved her for more than ten years, and this thought was just a flash, she followed Li Shuqiao's words and asked, "Who is it?" ”

Li Shuqiao's words were almost squeezed out from between her teeth: "It must be the girl from the third room!" ”

Zhou Shiqiang supported his weak body and frowned, in the past half a year, things have always been hindered by many obstacles, although she has always suspected that it was the people in the third room who made a move from it, but she never thought that it was Li Shuci, that girl she saw since she was a child, and she didn't have any scheming at all: "You mean that she set this fire?" How is it possible, this girl acts according to likes and dislikes, she has no scheming since she was a child, I have secretly investigated, and there is a chance that this matter was done by the Lian family......"

"Mother!" Li Shuqiao shouted loudly: "Li Shuci is no longer the girl who has no city government. Since the last time Green Chrysanthemum disappeared inexplicably, I suspected that she had done something secretly. and the last time Liufangwen Club, maybe she was also making trouble! This misfire, I'm sure! Even if it wasn't her hands, it would definitely have nothing to do with her! ”

Li Shuwen stared at Li Shuqiao stunned, she knew that Li Shuqiao had always been jealous of Li Shuci's identity as a concubine like her. But her eldest sister no longer wants to be the soft and delicate person she used to be, because Li Shuqiao's patience has been burned by this fire, and from the moment she woke up in the carriage, she attributed all the injuries she suffered to Li Shuci, undisguised hatred, jealousy, and wanting to destroy everything that was stronger than her.

Li Shuqiao's body even trembled a little, she stretched out her hands hidden in her sleeves, the hideous and twisted scars on them were still there, and she said, "Mother, are you just watching your daughter being hurt?" Watching the murderer who hurt his daughter go unpunished! Mother, you have to help me! I want to avenge my daughter! ”

Zhou looked at the emotional Li Shuqiao, held it in his throat in one breath, and suddenly coughed violently, violently as if he was about to cough out his heart, Li Shuwen hurriedly stepped forward and stroked Zhou, with disappointment and incomprehension in her eyes, and said: "Big sister, my mother was so seriously injured in order to save you!" You don't even ask, what's the point?! Mother's body is good and bad, the imperial doctor said that the mother's vitality is seriously injured this time, if you don't recuperate well, it is likely to fall into the root of the disease, if you still think about revenge, how to stand it! How can you not be considerate and considerate of mothers! ”

Li Shuqiao's gaze stabbed at Li Shuwen, her gaze was sharp and sharp, and she paused for a moment on Li Shuwen's slender and white upper hand, and suddenly lowered her eyes. Looking up again, it was already calm, as if she had changed back to the original weak and slender paper beauty, and she said softly: "Mother, it's me who is not good." Your body is important, Wen'er, take good care of your mother, I am a little uncomfortable, I will go back first, and I will visit my mother another day. ”

Li Shuwen looked at Li Shuqiao's back and walked out slowly, and sighed, she really couldn't understand the eldest sister more and more.

Li Shuqiao lowered her eyes all the way back to Qiyun Pavilion, instructed the girl to stay outside, and entered the house alone, Li Shuci slowly walked to the dressing table, staring at herself in the mirror, thinking about the failure to frame Yao's family, the failure of Hanshan to poison Li Xiu, to the disappearance of green chrysanthemum Shen Hao died, she suddenly started laughing, and said gloomily: "Li Shuci!" No one else believes it, but I know it's you! It has to be you! ”

Ping'er and Huan'er vaguely heard Li Shuqiao's sneer at the door, and looked at each other, their faces were not good-looking. Huan'er said in a low voice with a sad face: "The eldest girl is like a different person these days!" Staring at the scars on his hands and feet all day long, he was stunned, and he couldn't wait to apply more than a dozen layers of white jade cream. If the scars on her hands and feet don't heal, the big girl will definitely go crazy! I looked at the big girl's eyes so penetrating...... Sister Qiaoxiang's hand is still not good......"

Ping'er also looked worried, bit her lip and said, "On weekdays, the eldest girl is weak and can't lift it, how can she touch the hot water?" How could it be poured on Sister Qiaoxiang's hands? Sister Qiaoxiang's hands are so delicate and beautiful, I don't know if there will be scars...... You say big girl, she'...... Is it intentional? ”

Huan'er hurriedly squeezed her eyes, "Don't talk nonsense, if the eldest girl hears it, we won't have any good fruit to eat!" When Sister Qiaoxiang comes back, we won't have to wait closely......"

Seeing that after this year, Li Shuci will be fourteen, which is the age of drawing, a simple single hosta is inserted in a delicate bun, and the skirt shows off pink and white plum petals, and the whole person exudes light vitality. The old lady took her hand, looked up and down, was indescribably satisfied, and said with a smile: "On such a cold day, why don't you hold a hand stove." ”

A few sparks crackled in the charcoal basin, and as soon as Li Shuci entered the old lady's room, his eyebrows and eyes stretched out like melting ice and snow, and warmth spread all over his body. took a food box from the hands of the green pigeon behind him, personally opened it and sent the milk soup inside to the old lady, and said with a smile: "There is a fox fur given by the old lady, how can it be cold?" ”

The old lady nodded, people are getting old, their appetite is not as good as before, Li Shuci brings her food every day, today this milk soup is still warm and fragrant, she smiled: "Why bother with all these thoughts?" ”

Mama Lian smiled on the side: "The fifth girl is filial, and the old lady should be happy." I haven't been sleeping well in recent days, and I can nourish my body with some hearty food. ”

"It's just some food, where is the effort? But grandmother, haven't you slept well these days? Li Shuci hurriedly asked.

The old lady waved her hand, "It's nothing, it's not strange that you sleep less when you're old." It's just that I've been dreaming frequently lately, and I'm a little anxious, and it's not in the way. ”

Li Shuci looked at the old lady carefully, except that her spirit was not very good, but she couldn't see anything else, and thought about it and said, "Grandmother still asked my grandfather to invite the imperial doctor to take a look!" If you are sick, you can also be treated in time, and if you are fine, you can also feel at ease. My grandmother is my backbone, so I can't be careless! ”

The old lady patted Li Shuci's hand and said with a smile: "Okay, good, just listen to you!" ”
