Chapter 32: Discovering the Shadows

"Shizi." Thorny and obediently took the purse, the expression on his face was slightly restrained, with temptation, "This purse is scratched, the maid ......" and I will give you a new one.

Before the second half of the sentence was finished, Xiao Yan originally closed his eyes tightly, but suddenly opened them, like a scorching streamer falling on his body, he subconsciously took half a step back, his body stiffened violently, and his heart became nervous like never before.

"Get out." Xiao Yan spoke, his voice was thin, and he unsheathed his blade.

Thorny Heart was stunned, and looked at Xiao Yan at a loss, a pair of clear glass eyes soaked in water, like a fawn, confused, and heartfelt.

It's a pity that it fell in Xiao Yan's eyes, but he became more and more disgusted, his gaze moved down, and fell on the purse in her hand, a breath of fire rose in his heart, and his voice was low, faintly dangerous: "Go out." As the words fell, a drop of water between Xiao Yan's fingers also flew over, hitting the thorny wrist hard.

A sharp pain struck, and the right arm of the thorny heart was closed, and the purse fell.

Hanquan moved quickly, stepped forward in two steps, caught the purse, sent it to Xiao Yan, and then retreated with a thorny heart.

I was in a hurry all the way, and I didn't let go of her until I was in the bedroom.

"What's the matter with you?" Hanquan reprimanded him mercilessly, "Don't you know that the prince cherishes that purse very much, how can he be clumsy." ”

Thorny Heart held her right wrist with her left hand, and the pain was so painful that cold sweat flowed down, at this moment, she not only had a painful hand, but her heart was even colder.

She raised her head with hatred and glared at the cold spring: "In your eyes, isn't my hand as good as a purse, not to mention how do I know that the prince cherishes that purse, I didn't mean to." ”

Hanquan sneered, as if mocking, she didn't speak, but walked up to Thorn Heart, grabbed her wrist, and looked.

It didn't bleed, but the bones must have been injured, and they weren't so noble as maids.

Hanquan opened the drawer, took out a bottle of medicinal oil, poured it into his palm a little, held his thorny wrist, and pushed away the bruise.

I bit my lower lip in pain, and I didn't say a word.

"Biting." Hanquan held the handkerchief to her lips.

Thorny heart was moved, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the cold voice of Hanquan in his ears: "Don't bite your mouth, if you are seen and talk about the world, you don't have to stay in the palace." ”

I felt a piece of cold ice lying on my heart, and my heart was suddenly cold, and my face seemed to have been slapped hard, and it was so hot that it hurt.

is so ashamed, Hanquan didn't let her go, and mocked in a tone: "We have served the prince since childhood, don't tell me that you don't know the son, and you can't see the prince's cherishment of that purse." What's going on with you lately? Seeing that the sky was sent out, the gods did not ask, and their hearts were wild. ”

After a pause, Han Quan's voice was stern: "You can rest these days, take care of your injuries, and you will not be needed by the side of the prince for the time being." ”

"Why?" Thorny and angry, both of them are big girls, why did Hanquan order her not to let her deceased son wait by her side, it is better to take her life.

Han Quan didn't pay attention to Thorn Heart's question at all, and spoke directly: "Sword Heart, Sword Intent, look at Thorn Heart." ”

"Cold Spring." Thorny and angry.

Hearing this, Han Quan's footsteps towards the outside stopped, turned around, glanced at her coldly, and said in a cold tone: "If you are so unruly, I will ask the princess to send you to Zhuangzi to match someone." ”

Thorny looked at her in disbelief, unable to say a word in horror, watching the cold spring leave.

It wasn't until her figure was far away that Thorn Heart seemed to suddenly come back to her senses, and she walked a few quick steps to the door. Jian Xin and Jian Yi suddenly appeared and blocked the door, bowing their heads, seemingly respectful, but their tone was as cold as snow: "Sister, don't embarrass us." ”

Thorny suppressed the anger in his heart, slammed the door with his hand, turned and ran to the bed, and sobbed quietly.

She and Hanquan are both big girls on the surface, but in fact, Thorny herself also understands in her heart that the people in this courtyard are still faintly dominated by Hanquan. A few years ago, she tried to make friends with Hanquan, but Hanquan's attitude was lukewarm, and she was extremely cautious and cautious, and she couldn't find fault even if she wanted to.

Not only that, by chance, she also discovered that Hanquan actually knew kung fu, and since the fight, she didn't dare to do it against Hanquan.

After crying for a while, the thorny mood gradually calmed down, and she began to review herself, this time she was indeed reckless, so that she made a mistake. The princess hasn't entered the door yet, she can't die before she gets out of school.

However, Hanquan is really hateful this time, she doesn't save any face in front of her subordinates, how can she discipline those second- and third-class girls. Thinking of this, I hated and pounded the quilt.

Hmph, don't look at your arrogance now, one day I'm going to make you cry on your knees at my feet.

Hanquan left from the thorny place, and went to Xiao Yan's place, Xiao Yan had already dressed and came out of the clean room, and was lying on the soft couch in the east room at the moment, pinching his purse between his fingers and looking through it.

"Shizi." Han Quan bowed, "Thorny Heart has been in frequent contact with the subordinates of the Changxing Bo family these few times, and I don't know what to think, and she seems to have some magical powers, and the maid has sent people to follow her for several years, but she hasn't noticed anything abnormal." ”

The Han family?

A touch of disgust flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, although he didn't look down on the eldest lady of the Han family, but he couldn't help them pick and choose, this act was really disgusting, "You tried to reveal the evil illness of the Korean language to the princess." ”

The princess has been busy with his leg injury these days, and I am afraid that she will not have time to take care of the things outside.

Cold Springs should be, and then asked about the thorny disposition.

Xiao Yan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a little impatience in her expression, "Small punishment and big commandment, continue to find someone to watch her, don't act rashly first." ”

Cold Springs nodded and stepped back.

Xiao Yan was the only one left in the room, he was holding his purse, quite at a loss and didn't know what to do.

At the beginning, he was angry with Lin Long, and wanted to destroy the purse several times, but he stayed behind by mistake. In this regard, he also wondered a little, it was just a broken purse, how did it become a difficult thing, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

Xiao Yan doesn't like broken things, this may be a revelation from God to him, telling him that since the purse is broken, destroy it.

Hold the purse in the palm of your hand, form a fist with your right hand, and be reluctant to exert yourself several times.

Never mind.

He is injured now, Xiao Yan thought to himself, he has no strength to luck with internal strength, so it is better to keep it for now.

"Hmph, it's your fate!" Staring at the purse in his palm, Xiao Yan snorted arrogantly.

Although the purse was lucky to leave his life, Xiao Yan was still unhappy in his heart, and the surface of the purse was scraped, Xiao Yan became more and more unhappy the more he looked at it. The fingertips touched the scraping place, and the result was ...... The silk scraped even bigger!

, Lord Shizi, don't you know that you have calluses on your hands that have been grinding out from holding weapons for many years?

Xiao Yan's heart was so uncomfortable, he was about to throw his purse aside, but he was out of sight and out of mind, when suddenly a spiritual light flashed in his mind.

He came up with a great ideaβ€”

Turn the purse inside out.

It's better to act than to move, Xiao Yan's fingers turned over the purse neatly, and she was quite satisfied, she didn't expect that the little girl's needlework was exquisite, so fine that she couldn't even see the stitches.

Huh――

What is it? Hidden mysteries!

Xiao Yan found that the purse had a hole, and hurriedly pressed the purse that had just been turned over, and saw a delicate little picture come into view.

Black eyes and red lips, delicate goose egg face...... Xiao Yan's eyes darkened, and there was a faint demon blue rolling.

Dead girl!

He suddenly clenched his fist and slammed it into the bed, it was 108,000 miles away, and she still had the ability to disturb his heart.

What a capability!

――

A few days after Xiao Yan left, Lin Long came to Kwai Shui, perhaps because of her frail body when she was a child, she has never been accurate in menstruation, she only came once in two or three months, and then carefully recuperated, and then slowly normalized.

However, in the past few days, it may be that he has been fighting wits and courage with Xiao Yan, his brain power is too great, and his spirit is not good, and this month's affairs have also been disordered, and he has advanced three or four days in advance, and it is still a little painful.

Because of the pain, Lin Long was slightly silent with a white face, and he rarely even spoke.

She is cold, it is impossible to be coquettish or complain, and she only suffers silently.

Then, Lin Mu misunderstood.

went back to complain to Father Lin, moved his mouth and moved his hands, and went down with a combination of punches, which made Father Lin grin: "I said Madam, if you don't hit someone, I still want to see someone." ”

"Hmph." Mother Lin glared at him, "My daughter's family affairs haven't been settled yet, and you also have a big heart." ”

Thinking that her daughter was declining day by day because of the departure of the nobles, Mother Lin felt distressed, her daughter was so good, even the princes and grandsons were worthy of it. It's all Father Lin's bad, and the petty officials who are bigger sesame don't know how to be motivated at all.

Tired of her daughter's low status.

Father Lin is also very aggrieved, okay, this lady of his family has been a lot younger in appearance in recent years, and her force value is also surging up. The previous gentleness and innocence have all turned into a big palm, but he can't get any temper in front of such a fresh face.

Don't blame Father Lin for being superficial, how can there be a person who is not superficial, and he is not a saint. Everyone loves beautiful and lovely flowers, and I haven't seen anyone holding dog shit and smelling it.

It's by nature.

What's more, Father Lin is also a matter of course, his daughter-in-law, he doesn't tolerate anyone.

The men of the Lin family hurt Lin Long too much, and they were all taught by her to love their daughter-in-law imperceptibly.

The same is true of Lin Yejin, the eldest brother of the number one brain-dead fan, who is afraid of blowing away in his hand with his eldest sister-in-law Yang Hui, and is afraid of melting in his mouth, which is called a word to obey.

It was precisely because he loved his daughter-in-law that Father Yang felt comfortable, and then recommended Lin Yeyun to enter Nandu Academy.

Listening to Mother Lin's talk about her youngest daughter's marriage, Father Lin remembered one thing: "Today in the yamen, the boss of the Wei family talked to me for a long time, and asked about our two Long'er's leg diseases. ”

"How did you get there?" Mother Lin became nervous.

Father Lin smiled, "Of course it's almost good, a few days ago, I saw Long'er walking by herself, although it is only two steps, but it must not be far from recovery." ”

Lin Mu nodded, very satisfied, and just put her heart down, she didn't know what to think, and she mentioned it again.

Women, they are very sensitive to this aspect, "You say, does the Wei family want to marry our family?" ”

"This ......," Father Lin hesitated.

In this regard, he is not as good as Mother Lin, over the years, Mother Lin has kept in mind the school-age Langjun of each family, "The second child of the Wei family, named Wei Li, is the right age with our family. ”

Speaking of this, Mother Lin's tone was stunned, and she thought of one thing, "No, the Wei family seems to be discussing marriage with the Chen family, I heard Mrs. Chen mention it in a trance, Wei Er and Chen San are childhood sweethearts." ”

Mother Lin frowned: "The Wei family is really not authentic, isn't this bad for the relationship between you and the Chen family." ”

"Don't think about it." Father Lin comforted Mother Lin, "It may not be Wei Er, maybe it is the other sons and nephews of the Wei family." ”

Mother Lin's heart was still raised, and she threw down a sentence, "I'll ask Long'er." And he walked away quickly.

Lin Long was writing a letter to Zhao Ji when he saw Lin Mufeng breaking in. She put down the pen without hurry, took another piece of paper to cover the letter, and then took Lin's mother's hand and asked softly: "So anxious, A-Niang is in a hurry?" ”

Mother Lin told the Wei family about it, and then asked Lin Long if he had met Wei Er in the Chen family.

She knows the appearance of her daughter, and when she was a child, Mother Lin also saw several stunning aunts of her father and uncle, and everyone talked about being beautiful, but in Mother Lin's opinion, they couldn't even match Lin Long in color.

It can be seen that Long'er has a beautiful face.

So over the years, in addition to going to Chen's house, Mother Lin rarely let Lin Long go out, and she always wore a veil when she went out.

The beauty is like this, and their Lin family's family background is not obvious, which is easy to make people feel evil.

After listening to his mother's questioning, Lin Long hesitated for a long time and decided to tell the truth: "Yes, it is precisely because of this incident that the third lady has a dislike for her daughter." ”

Mother Lin suddenly realized, "I said why didn't Sanniang come to our house, so that's the case." Speaking of this, her face was a little bad, and she muttered, "This Wei Er is not a good thing." Seeing the difference, I have been a childhood friend with Chen San for many years, and I actually said that I would change my heart when I changed my mind.

No, she has to talk to Father Lin well.

Thinking of this, Lin Mu flew out like a whirlwind.

Witnessing this qiΔ“, Lilac laughed twice and joked: "Madame's health is getting better and better." ”

Come and go like the wind.

――

Chen Mansion, Chen Shu hadn't eaten for two days, her little face was as pale as snow, and her lips were cracked.

Biyun was distressed, and comforted softly beside him: "Lady, you can eat something, why do you have to suffer so much for an unworthy person." ”

Chen Shu shed two tears, her heart was extremely aggrieved, and her voice was choked: "Front...... A few days ago, didn't I get it, my aunt gave me a jade bracelet, took my hand and said that she would treat me as her own daughter, how can you ...... What's ......?" Chen Shu couldn't go on.

Biyun waved her hand, drove all the girls in the room out, lay in Chen Shu's ear, and whispered: "Lady, you say...... Will it be ......" she paused, her tone hesitant, "Could it be because of Mrs. Lin?" ”

This sentence seemed to instantly clear the fog in Chen Shu's heart, and she almost immediately confirmed: "That slut!" ”

Her eyes fell on the dresser, and the double butterfly bead hairpin by the mirror pierced her eyes, and she suddenly grabbed the bead hairpin and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Biyun breathed a sigh of relief, the boredom in the lady's heart, it is better to vent it than to hold it in her heart, with Lin Long to divert her attention, presumably the lady does not need to suffer so much.

"Lady." Biyun persuaded in a different way, "For the sake of this adulterer's β–‘β–‘, it is not worth it for you to be wronged like this, you should be blind and see the wrong person." ”

"Slut, slut, slut!" The anger in Chen Shu's heart suddenly bubbled out, and with a wave of her arm, she swept all the things on the dresser to the ground, and only then did she relax slightly.

Biyun stretched her eyebrows and helped Chen Shu to sit on the side of the bed: "Lady doesn't need to be angry, Wei Er saw that he was blind when he was lame, and Lin Long was just picking up what you don't want, with your family background and appearance, you will definitely find a better one." That Lin Long is just relying on a face, flowers are not red for a hundred days, and people are not good for a thousand days, wait for her to be old and yellow, see how she is, fox. ”

Chen Shu was silent, her eyes were a little gloomy, but she no longer cried.

Biyun breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The lady eats a trench and grows wise, that Lin Long pretends to be cold, but in his heart he is a snake and a scorpion, and he does foxy things. If you can't say it, I'm laughing at you in secret, but you must not be depressed and let that fox see the joke. ”

"Bring the food."

Biyun was overjoyed, so excited that she almost cried, and the lady was finally willing to eat.

――

Lin Mansion, as soon as Mother Lin left, Lin Shuo entered the door with a box: "Lady, this is sent by the Chen family." ”

"What is this?" Lilac took the box, "Oh, it's still quite heavy, lady, open it?" ”

Lin Long nodded.

Lilac put the box on the desk and opened it, looked in curiously, thinking that Xu was a good thing sent by the third lady, but her eyes touched the things inside, and she almost didn't scream.

"Look, lady!" She held the box in front of Lin Long.

It is full of things that Lin Long has given to Chen Shu over the years, including delicate peach blossom hairpins, machine dolls, and a piece of Juanpa, which symbolizes the friendship between the two and embroidered with the characters Long and Shu, which has been cut in half at this time.

"Lady." Looking at the piece of juanpa, Lilac almost didn't cry.

Lin Shuo was not as sentimental as Lilac, he reached out and dialed the flute in the box, and whispered: "Why don't you see that double butterfly hairpin?" "She always liked that hairpin.

Hearing this, Lin Long turned his gaze and said in a faint voice: "Maybe it's a fall." ”

Although her tone was light, there was a slight melancholy.

"Lilacs." Lin Long spoke, "Go and bring that box of beauty cream and send it to Chen San, in the past few days, she must have shed a lot of tears, and the beauty cream will reduce swelling......"

"Lady!" Lilac interrupted angrily, "What do you care about her?" ”

"Hmph." Ding Xiang was resentful in her heart, "The maid can see it, Chen Sanniang doesn't treat you as a friend at all, I have long felt that she is uneasy and kind, and put on a pitying and distressed face, but she takes good things from you without mercy." She sent the bead hairpin doll back, why didn't she send back those beauty and fitness tips you gave her, those are priceless. ”

"Lady, you're just too sexy." Lilac remembered the incident on the Daughter's Day the year before last, "She learned from you to retreat from embroidery, and pretended to say that your legs were not good and would not let you go, but she used your retreat to embroider the leader." And those bead hairpins, mechanism dolls, if it weren't for you, where would she get these good reputations, these, why didn't she send them back! ”

Lilac is really getting more and more angry, she has followed Lin Long to practice medicine over the years, her vision is broad and well-informed, and those beauty and health prescriptions are not even known to the most famous Lang Zhong in Yunzhou. In these years, good things are monopolized in the hands of the family, and there are few literate people outside, and the Chen family is just a landowner in a small county town.

Her lady is beautiful and smart, these recipes were all thought up by the lady herself, and they are obviously priceless, but they have been deceived by Chen Shu.

Don't think she doesn't know what's going on with the Chen family's fat powder shops.

Lin Long didn't expect Lilac to be so angry, he was slightly surprised, and explained softly: "I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me. ”

"You understand her, she doesn't understand you." Lilac is distressed, her lady is too good and soft-hearted, so she let Chen Shu handle it.

She was sure that if the two reconciled this time, the lady would definitely have to pay a lot of things.

This is the difference in the pattern, in Lin Long's view, those things are ordinary things, but in the eyes of Lilac Chen Shu and others, they are priceless treasures.

The two girls lowered their heads and did not speak, obviously very dissatisfied with Chen Shu.

Lin Long didn't feel much, Chen Shu talked to her, and let her feel what a close friend was. Equivalent exchange, she from herself these things are also normal.

However, Lilac is also right.

She doesn't care, and in the eyes of others, she is soft-hearted and easy to bully.

Since she and Chen Shu can't get along, there is no need to maintain this relationship, and some things can't be forced-
