Old Madam Lin was stunned when she heard her say this: "Don't you know that you have a magic weapon on your body?" ”

Liu Xiaohua's heart was shocked, and she made a puzzled look, "What is Yixiang?" ”

"Something that changes a person's face." Lin Yuzhi was surprised: "It turns out that although you have such a thing, you don't know it?" Mr. Li Da said, you have read the book of words and have a lot of insights into alchemy, how can you not know what Yi Xiang is? ”

"I don't know if it's a written book. I didn't know much when I picked it up, and although I flipped through it, I only had a cursory look at it, and then I lost it. Not to mention whether there is anything written on it, it is written, but there are only a few things I can remember after such a long time. Liu Xiaohua was very ashamed, "I don't know much, but there aren't many things." At most, I have some understanding of the medicinal properties of common medicinal materials. ”

Lin Yuzhi was a little regretful, but he didn't care much about the book, just nodded, "I see." Then you don't know what is on your body that has the effect of changing phase? ”

Liu Xiaohua thought of the scene when she first met Cheng Guzi.

At that time, because she fell with Li Tianxing, she tore off the beads that Chen repeatedly told to wear closely. Then as soon as he turned around, he met Cheng Guzi. The so-called easy-to-phase effect is this bead? Subconsciously, I want to touch the collar. But she immediately restrained herself. He didn't want to say anything, but shook his head blankly, "I don't know." What should it be? ”

The mother-in-law hurriedly said, "Could it be something that I carried with me when I was a child?" Think about it, what is it that your fourth lady has been asking your family to wear? Mr. Cheng said that it could be a bead. At that time, he could see clearly, and when you received the bead, his appearance changed. ”

Liu Xiaohua had to suddenly realize: "It turned out to be this." Then he unfastened his collar and pulled out the bead. Ask, "Is this this?" "Look at the mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law nodded again and again: "I'm afraid that's it." I don't believe the little lady, take it and take a look. ”

No matter how Liu Xiaohua looks at this little bead, it is extremely inconspicuous. Hearing what the mother-in-law said, she immediately took off the beads in obedience.

Following her movements, the eyes of Old Madam Lin and Lin Yuzhi focused on her face. The surprise in the face does not seem to be fake.

"Little lady, please come here." The mother-in-law hurriedly said.

Liu Xiaohua agreed, put the beads on the table casually, and walked to the bronze mirror with her mother-in-law.

Although she was mentally prepared, when she saw the person in the mirror, she still felt extremely shocked and amazed.

Although the person in the mirror is dressed in an ordinary dress, his face is gorgeous, his eyes are shining, his narrow Danfeng eyes, his red lips are not from Zhu, and his eyebrows and eyes are full of unstoppable and domineering spirit.

If you say, the face that Liu Xiaohua has been used to is clear and beautiful. Now this is completely bewitching and seductive.

This face is indeed very similar to the man in the portrait. If she changes her outfit and removes the slight childishness on her face for a few more years, I'm afraid it will really become a mold carved out.

Mrs. Lin said that they looked alike, they were telling the truth, and they didn't lie to her.

However, perhaps because it was too sudden, when she saw this face, she had a terrifying illusion, as if the person in the mirror had an independent life and thoughts, and was not under her control.

She let out a short cry and tried to step back. Old Madam Lin didn't know when she walked to her side, held her and said kindly, "This is what you look like." You should be afraid. After all, you have never seen yourself in real form, and you have grown up with another face for more than ten years. But as long as you see too much, you will get used to it. ”

Liu Xiaohua looked at Mrs. Lin in the mirror, she didn't hide her fear, she was so frightened that she wanted to run away immediately, but she still nodded, "Yes." After that, he couldn't help but say, "But, but why did my aunt wear this easy-looking bead for me?" ”

Old Madam Lin sighed and said, "I'm afraid that my appearance is too good and I will cause trouble, right?" Over the years, your mother and daughter have suffered a lot. It's sad to think about it. "It's very sad to turn your face sideways.

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly comforted her: "Old lady, don't be too sad. Isn't it better now? ”

Old Madam Lin smiled, "Yes." Your mother and daughter have returned home, and no one dares to give you no pleasure. ”

The mother-in-law smiled beside her: "The little lady should stop calling the old lady, but the grandmother." ”

Liu Xiaohua was happy and ashamed, "I can't believe it's true." Not long ago, I was worried about how to fill my stomach, and in the blink of an eye, I became the daughter of a big family? Never have to go hungry and freeze again? Can you still wear beautiful clothes and jewelry? He looked like he never thought that he was going to soar, and he was so happy that he didn't know what to do, and he happily shouted, "Grandmother! Are you my grandmother? ”

Mrs. Lin answered, and couldn't help hugging her and crying, "I've been waiting for this for a long time." I thought I wouldn't be able to see you in my lifetime...... God blesses, God bless me Lin. The sky has eyes. ”

The mother-in-law also cried with her.

Lin Yuzhi comforted him softly for a while, and then Mrs. Lin gradually calmed down. pulled Liu Xiaohua to sit down, and asked carefully how she had come over the years, and what she had relied on to make a living in the mountains.

Liu Xiaohua's eyes are also red, and she will answer all questions.

In the past hard days, I heard a few people very embarrassed. Mrs. Lin couldn't help but cry again. With red eyes, he stroked Liu Xiaohua's hair and said, "We'll go home later, don't say what others have in the future, you will have it." It's something that people don't have, as long as you want, your grandmother can find it for you. As long as you're happy, grandmother is happy. Whoever dares to bully you, grandmother will not make him feel good even if she fights for this old life. ”

Liu Xiaohua's eyes sparkled. "Grandmother" threw herself into her arms and cried, "This qiē is like a dream." I'm so scared...... Now my aunt doesn't know where it is, in case my aunt comes, but it proves that I am not ............"

"No, no, no." Seeing her so frightened, Old Madam Lin hurriedly reassured her, "There will never be a mistake." I also made it with my old life guarantee. Don't listen to what your fourteenth uncle says, wait for your aunt to confirm it. He's that kind of character, and he's angry with me. Blame me for thinking he was unstable before. ”

Liu Xiaohua glanced at Lin Yuzhi with tearful eyes, and then at Old Madam Lin, a trace of calculation flashed in her eyes, "Yes, but what if it's really not ........."

Lin Yuzhi saw it in his eyes, and still said sincerely: "Even if it's not, I will never ask you to live the previous life." You look so much like my fourth brother, and your mother is willing to be your godgranddaughter? "This reassures her.

Old Madam Lin nodded again and again, "Yes." Good girl, don't cry anymore, crying makes my heart hurt. ”

Liu Xiaohua was completely relieved and overjoyed. The elated and colorful look was like walking on the road and picking up gold ingots. asked Mrs. Lin, "Will you give me a monthly silver flower every month from now on?" ”

The mother-in-law glanced at her quickly.

As if she didn't know, her eyes lit up and stared at Old Madam Lin.

Old Madam Lin didn't think that the pestle smiled crookedly: "Naturally." Not only that, but you're taller than your sisters. Grandmother subsidizes you herself, so that they don't know! ”

Liu Xiaohua smiled happily and asked about the daily life of Lin Fuzhong. Such as what to eat at each meal, how many meals a day. How many new clothes are worn each year.

She asked innocently and curiously: "I heard that the ladies in the high-ranking families only wear their clothes once?" Don't wear it? Will I be the same in the future? After speaking, he hurriedly defended himself, "Actually, I think it's a waste of money." In our village, a piece of clothing can be worn for many years, and if it is short, it will be picked up, and if it is small, it will be changed. It's just curiosity, so ask. ”

Old Madam Lin was not the slightest impatient, "That's nature." The clothes of the visitors are only worn once or twice, and people will laugh at them if they wear too much. These trivial matters, when you go home and spend a few days with your sisters at home, will naturally know. ”

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly looked sad: "I look so poor and sour. I wonder if people will laugh at me and look down on me when I go home? Will my sisters talk to me? ”

Mrs. Lin promised her a bunch of benefits, and promised never to make her lose face. It's like a living bodhisattva who responds to all requests. I just want to make her happy.

Liu Xiaohua really became more and more happy. I can't wait to go to the Lin Mansion to live a rich life right now.

However, when meeting Lin Yuzhi's gaze, Liu Xiaohua would smile at him very flatteringly, and look away uncomfortably.

This kind of appearance, no matter how you look at Liu Xiaohua, she is just a poor and scared little girl. I just want to live a good life. When she and Lin Yuzhi first met, it made people think that she was a little scheming, but now it is not enough.

Old Madam Lin showed a tired look after a while, and Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said, "Let's go home quickly." Grandmother was tired. Reach out to her.

"Good." Old Madam Lin stood up, and the two of them talked and laughed and planned to leave. Lin Yuzhi followed behind them, with a faint smile on his face, listening to the two of them. Pull in from time to time.

Liu Xiaohua walked out of the door, but suddenly stopped, "Oops! ”

"How?" Old Madam Lin immediately asked.

Liu Xiaohua smiled: "That bead was forgotten on the table." ”

Mrs. Lin breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked her mother-in-law to get it.

Liu Xiaohua waved her hand and said, "It's okay for me to take it myself, mother-in-law come over and help my grandmother." ”

What else did Mrs. Lin say, Liu Xiaohua had already let go of her hand and ran back to the house. She had no choice but to do it. But his eyes have been following Liu Xiaohua, and he doesn't want her to leave his sight for half a step.

Lin Yuzhi stepped forward and helped her, and the two of them kept looking at the direction in which Liu Xiaohua disappeared.

Liu Xiaohua entered the house, and the smiles and excitement on her face disappeared without a trace.

She walked to the table, and the bead was still lonely on the table, which showed that she was thinking too much, and the Lin family's goal was not this bead. Otherwise, how could I have forgotten this thing and left it here?

The mother-in-law's voice came from outside, "Can you find it?" ”

Liu Xiaohua turned around and was about to respond, her eyes swept over the bronze mirror and she was startled by the person in the mirror, and hurriedly picked up the beads. Only then did he feel more comfortable, and responded with a smile, "I found it." ”

After speaking, he didn't seem to go out, and walked straight to the Seventh Prince, who had been sitting on the bed in a daze, stared at him coldly, and said, "Who are you?" ”

The Seventh Prince Mu Ran sat still, not responding to her question.

When Liu Xiaohua was talking to the people of the Lin family, he kept sitting like this. Never moved. It seems that he can't understand other people's words, and he can't feel the outside world. The people of the Lin family don't treat him as a living person.

Liu Xiaohua ripped off the Shoudan on his neck and said, "Shoudan is cracked, which means that the head of the family is not protected, and there has been an invasion of evil spirits." You're not the Seven Princes! ”

The eyes of the Seven Princes seemed to flicker. But maybe it's just the flickering candlelight that makes people hallucinate.

"Actually, it doesn't matter to me whether you are the Seventh Prince or not."

The Seventh Prince still didn't react at all.

"It's a blessing that you just vomited sugar in order to pretend to be crazy and stupid. If you hadn't vomited, you'd be stupid by now...... Whether you understand it or not, I only tell you one thing, if you leave me behind, maybe there will be a glimmer of life, if you let me go with the people of the Lin family, I'm afraid you won't have a few days to live. ”

After speaking, Liu Xiaohua didn't look at him anymore, took the beads, turned around and ran outside with a smile on her face.

Seeing her come out like this, Mrs. Lin hurriedly persuaded: "It's better not to touch the beads, this thing is not good for people when it is placed on the body." Besides, you have to get used to the way you are. ”

Liu Xiaohua said obediently: "Yes." The granddaughter listened to her grandmother. However, this is just a pearl no matter how you look at it. "A look of innocence" is incomprehensible, "There is a ability to change people's appearance......"

Old Madam Lin smiled: "Usually the best spiritual weapons, magic weapons, and divine pills are inconspicuous. Only those low-level things shine brightly. This is just as learned people are usually humble, and only those who have no knowledge can boast about themselves all day long. ”

"Grandmother knows so much!" Liu Xiaohua was surprised, with a sense of admiration, "Grandmother must have read a lot of books, right?" ”

"When you go to school, you know more than your grandmother." Mrs. Lin patted the back of her hand. Urging her, "Put the beads away first." As long as it's not close, it's fine. ”

Liu Xiaohua obediently put the beads into her purse.

The mother-in-law hurriedly said, "Actually, it's better to throw away this bead." It's not a good thing, it's not good for people. It's really not good for the slave to look at the little lady's body with so thin bones. I guess there is a reason for the beads, too. ”

Old Madam Lin frowned: "Don't call the little lady." In terms of ranking, she is younger than Li Niang, so she is called Eleven Niang. ”

The mother-in-law and Lin Yuzhi were stunned for a moment, and then the mother-in-law hurriedly said yes.

Mrs. Lin's expression became kind, and she said to Liu Xiaohua: "She has a point. This bead is still not to be wonderful. Do you think it's good? ”

Liu Xiaohua disappreciated and said, "Okay." "Sure enough, I was going to throw it away.

"Wait. This thing can't be littered. Mrs. Lin was very happy to see her obedient, held her hand, and said to her mother-in-law, "Bring my flower hammer to Eleven Niang." ”

The mother-in-law immediately came up with a small golden hammer the size of a palm. The hammer was carved with a bird, and a jewel fell from the bird's eye.

"Why did you smash it?" Liu Xiaohua was puzzled.

The mother-in-law immediately said: "The little lady of a wealthy family, if you don't want the things you wear closely, you can't keep them." What would it look like if it fell into the hands of a man? ”

"I see." Liu Xiaohua took the hammer and said with a smile: "Why does grandmother still carry this thing with her?" ”

The mother-in-law couldn't say anything at this time, only looked at Mrs. Lin.

Old Madam Lin said with a smile: "Where is the carrying, it is to see that this thing is small and exquisite, and I want to use it to amuse the Seventh Prince and give it to him to play." It's just that I forgot about it when I had too many things. If you like it, I'll give it to you. This is a spell attached. Can shatter spirits. If you want to smash an ordinary small spiritual weapon, it's not a problem. You just don't need this, you can still smash the fruit and eat it. It's not worth much, it's not unusual, but it can be a thing. ”

Liu Xiaohua is not happy. Hurriedly thanked her, took the little hammer in his hand, touched it and asked, "Is this golden?" ”

"Yes." The mother-in-law said with a smile.

"It's all gold?? Solid? ”

"Yes." The mother-in-law laughed amused by her appearance of being a fan of wealth.

"Grandmother is so good to me!" Liu Xiaohua's eyebrows danced.

Lin Yuzhi said with a smile on the side: "Okay, okay, you are about to smash this thing, and we will go back early." ”

"Oh." Liu Xiaohua squatted down, put the beads on the ground, raised the hammer, and quickly glanced at the residence of the Seven Princes behind her, the room was quiet, without the slightest sound, and several subordinates gathered outside to chat.

She lifted the hammer and gritted her teeth to smash it at the beads.

But a meter away from the beads, the hammer suddenly stopped.

Lin Yuzhi immediately said: "What? His eyes sharpened.

Liu Xiaohua said timidly: "But A-Niang repeatedly told me not to lose it, and to keep it carefully." If I smash it now, what if A-Niang gets angry then? ”

"Your aunt won't be angry. She asked you to wear this, but also for your safety, now that you are home, what is the use of this? The mother-in-law comforted her, "You think, you are wearing this bead, how sad the old lady should be when she sees it." A good granddaughter, obviously by her side, but with a different face. ”

Liu Xiaohua's heart turned a thousand times, but her face was a little cowering, she gave the hammer to her mother-in-law and said, "You can hammer it." When the time comes, my aunt will ask. You said you hammered it, and told her not to scold me. You are your grandmother's person, and A-Niang must not be angry with you. ”

The mother-in-law was stunned for a moment, then took the hammer and said, "Slave...... Slave...... Slaves and maids can't do it. ”

"Why not?" Liu Xiaohua asked.

"Slave, slave and maid, a subordinate. How dare you smash the things of the Lord's house? ”

Liu Xiaohua looked at Mrs. Lin in embarrassment: "Otherwise, grandmother, you can hammer it." I'm so scared of my mother. Even my grandmother was angry with me because of this, and I didn't dare to break what my mother gave. She beat me so badly, and my grandmother hurt me and didn't embarrass me. ”

Old Madam Lin glanced at the bead and didn't pick it up, but said, "Since that's the case, it's actually not in a hurry." You just hold it and don't fit snugly. When your mother comes, we'll talk about it. Save now that you have smashed it, ruined the relationship between your mother and daughter. It's not my wife's son. There was already some ambition in the words, although the mouth was forgiving, but there was still some resentment. The smile on his face also faded a little.

Liu Xiaohua heard Mrs. Lin say this, but her face was relieved, "Oh." With a sigh, he didn't seem to know how to read words and emotions at all. Then put the beads in the purse. The little hammer also wanted to put it away, but I couldn't put it down, but I couldn't put it down.

The mother-in-law said, "The slave and maid will help you keep it." ”

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said: "No, no, I'll just take it myself." "Joyful. On a cloud. It's not like how deep the scheming is.

Lin Yuzhi's eyes sank. glanced at Old Madam Lin. Liu Xiaohua's first impression of him was not a stupid person without eyes. Obviously, she really didn't want to destroy this bead, so she had many excuses.

At this time, Liu Xiaohua muttered unintentionally: "I'm afraid this bead should also be very valuable...... After speaking, she was surprised that she was too loud, and quickly glanced at her mother-in-law and Mrs. Lin, and saw that they didn't seem to hear clearly, so her expression was free. didn't know how Lin Yuzhi looked at her all the time.

It turned out that it wasn't because of anything else, but because of a greedy word, reluctant to pay. Lin Yuzhi's face softened slightly. In my heart, it's just a little girl.

Liu Xiaohua took the golden hammer and accompanied Mrs. Lin to chat while walking out. Seeing that he was about to walk out of the courtyard where the Seven Princes stayed, the house was still quiet.

Liu Xiaohua was worried in her heart, could she be wrong?

If the Seven Princes don't do anything. She must go back with the people of the Lin family. When the time comes, as soon as they enter the Lin Mansion, it is as deep as the sea, and I don't know if these people will be as easy to talk as they were when they were here in the Seven Princes' Mansion.

When she is isolated and helpless, others tell her to go east, and she is afraid that she will not be able to live in the west. Tell her to stand, and she won't dare to sit still. If she is told to smash anything, she has to smash it, and she is at the mercy of others.

Liu Xiaohua didn't know if she was too suspicious, so she didn't trust that the people of the Lin family were really her relatives.

Maybe her suspicions are just a shadow of a snake.

After all, some of the Lin family's statements are still very reasonable.

It may also be that the Chen family is really the daughter-in-law of the Lin Mansion, and she is really the daughter of Lin Shilang.

However, why didn't the Chen family think about returning to the Lin Mansion?

The man was dead, and there was no one to restrain her. Why did she stay in that little village?

Looking back like this, Liu Xiaohua felt that the Chen family refused to let her enter the clan study at the beginning, and I am afraid that it was more because they didn't want her to come to Tiancheng.

But why?

Is it because after living with another man for so many years, the Chen family is afraid that after the Lin family finds the mother and daughter, it will be bad for her to save her reputation?

The reputation and chastity of women in this world are about very important. It was not surprising that Chen was afraid.

In this way, it seems that all qiē makes sense. There was no other conspiracy, just because Chan did not want to be a victim of his reputation.

Liu Xiaohua felt that maybe it was because she had gone through too many ups and downs that she was unusually vigilant about everything, and with a precedent, she couldn't trust others. Even if it is a little subtlety, you will think about it and think that the other party has bad intentions.

Maybe the Lin family really wanted to smash this bead for her good?

After all, she has also tried it, and people are not coming for beads, nor for some words in the sky.

She is an orphan girl in a mountain village who wants money and no money, and she wants nothing but things, what is there to deceive others like this?

However, every time she followed the people of the Lin family to take a step outward, the feeling of rebellion in her heart became stronger and stronger
