Chapter 1: New Year's Month

Next Chapter

In the early morning, a faint fragrance of lilies wafted from the smoke cage of the bronze carved beast in the corner of the house. The sound of firecrackers from near and far is sparse, one after another.

Liu Ruoxi was lying on the warm kang near the window, staring into the void with a pair of dark eyes. The body that has not yet fully grown up appears more slender under the thick brocade quilt. The goose-yellow satin embroidered pillows and the slightly messy, long, hanging hair made her delicate face even paler.

The girls who were waiting were all sent out by her, and she didn't know how long she had been lying like this.

It's incredible, but it's not a dream.

In the second year of Longqing, she was immersed in the joy of becoming a mother for the first time. The pain and fatigue in his body had not completely disappeared, and suddenly came the bad news of his father. When she woke up from the fainting, she was greeted by a nightmare that made her even more terrifying: the warm and soft little body lying beside her became bruised and cold, and there was no longer life.

He came, drew his sword against her, and tried to kill her. In the end, he didn't do anything, but let people lock her up in the Buddhist hall. The compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva did not bring her any comfort. The news that her mother had followed her father sent her to a deeper level of hell.

In just one day, she lost three of her closest people.

However, her nightmare is not over.

She thought, she still has him. However, he never showed up again, only sending a white silk and a glass of poisoned wine. This is the choice he gave her.

All thoughts are lost, and there is no love in life. She laughed and drank poisoned wine, then committed suicide by hanging herself. The young grandmother, who was usually gentle and submissive, and had never spoken harshly to her subordinates, suddenly became so ruthless that the people who were sent to send her on the road were frightened.

Those people do not understand that there is no pain compared to the sudden loss of all their loved ones, and being regarded as an enemy by the people they love the most, and being sent to the end of their lives.

Especially, when all this happened, she thought that the clouds finally opened and the moon was bright, and the bitterness was sweet.

At the moment when her consciousness sank/fell, she only hoped to enter Huangquan as soon as possible, so that she could catch up with her father and mother and Yuan'er, and reunite with her family. As for that person, she didn't want to see him again in this life, in this life, in eternity, and forever.

God seems to have played a big joke on her. Instead of catching up with her loved ones' spirits, she returned to her boudoir as a girl.

In the second year of Xianqing, the eighteenth day of the first month. This year, she was just fifteen years old. The familiar environment, the ninety-nine cold diagram she drew by herself on the wall, told her accurately.

At this time, she was still under the knees of her parents, more innocent than most girls her age, ignorant of people's sinister people, and ignorant of human troubles. At this time, she didn't know that some people had two faces. At this time, she didn't know that there was such a person as him in the world.

Immersed in her own thoughts, Liu Ruoxi didn't hear the movement outside the door. When she came to her senses, someone had already arrived at her.

"What's going on?"

As soon as Liu's second wife Qi entered the door, she saw her daughter's face full of tears, and she immediately panicked. Mrs. Liu was busy sitting down next to Liu Yiji, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her daughter's tears, and asked worriedly, "...... What's wrong with this? …… What's wrong with it? Mother called the imperial doctor for you? …… Let the nightmare be chosen? …… Why not call people? ”

Liu Ruoxi looked at Mrs. Liu in a daze, a thousand words, but she couldn't say anything.

"What's wrong, Ji'er?" Mrs. Liu noticed her daughter's abnormality, and asked hurriedly.

"Mother, I'm fine." Liu Ruoxi said loudly, slowly sitting up.

Mrs. Liu Er hurriedly reached out to support Liu Ruoxi's shoulder, and stuffed a pillow behind her daughter so that her daughter could lean comfortably.

“…… Do you stand it when you get up, or lie down again? Mrs. Liu said in an inquiring tone.

"Mother, I'm fine." Liu Ruoxi confirmed with Mrs. Liu again that she had been lying down for almost half a month, and her life could not go on like this, and it was time to get up.

Liu Ruoxi wanted to freshen up, and Mrs. Liu Er was busy calling someone in. The little girl held the basin, and Mrs. Liu Er rolled up her sleeves, first poked her hand into the water, tested the water temperature, and then wrenched the handkerchief and washed her daughter's face herself.

Mother's hands, with a familiar fragrance, like a warm spring breeze, can heal the scars on people's hearts. Liu Yiji squinted her eyes, almost greedily enjoying the tranquility and warmth of this moment.

Either way, it's nice to be able to come back, to be back to this time when everyone is still happy and safe.

"Hi-'er is so good today." Mrs. Liu chuckled.

The second wife of Liu only has one daughter, Liu Ruoxi, and she has loved her like a treasure since she was a child. When Liu Ruoxi was still young, when she was washing and dressing, Mrs. Liu had to do it herself. Later, Liu Ruoxi became sensible, and when she heard her cousin's ridicule, she felt very embarrassed, so she refused to let Mrs. Liu do these things for her.

Like today, it is the first time in recent years to obediently ask Mrs. Liu to help her.

After washing, Mrs. Liu took care of her daughter's hair again, while persuading her.

"Mother knows, you are wronged. …… For the New Year, the old lady also said what she should say. There is no one in a big family who doesn't bump into each other. You're all young, you're all kids, and you're not qualified, let alone qualitative. Your eldest sister is not a heart. ”

"My mother gave birth to you, and you don't have any biological brothers and sisters, and there is no one on your grandfather's side. It's fine at home now. In the future, you all have to go to the door. Your father and I, we also have old times. Who else do you? That's your uncles and sisters. …… Break the bones and connect the tendons, and grow up from a small piece, and in the future, you will have to support each other. ”

Liu Ruoxi listened quietly, not nodding, not shaking her head, and not speaking. She was just listening to Mrs. Liu, and she didn't care about what Mrs. Liu said.

Moreover, she had already heard these words with calluses in her ears. Words are good words, but things often don't go as they should.

Mrs. Liu grew up in the palm of her hand, and she can be said to respond to everything she wants. But she has a regret, she is an only daughter, after her father and mother passed away, she has no relatives to deal with, and she is always envious of people who have a large group of brothers and sisters. It's a pity that she only gave birth to a daughter, so she hopes that Liu Ruoxi and her uncles and sisters can be closer.

"Mother is too lonely......" Speaking of this, Mrs. Liu really thought of herself again, and inevitably sighed again.

"Mother, you have a father, and me." Liu Ruoxi said loudly.

"Yes, my mother is waiting for you to honor my mother in the future." Second Mrs. Liu smiled, and then muttered, "...... As long as she is doing well, she will honor her mother and your father more than anything else. ”

Liu Ruoxi naturally heard Mrs. Liu's muttering, and her heart couldn't help but feel hot.

She failed her mother's heart. The violent death of the father and mother in the prime of life, and the inexplicable death of the young son, are all entangled in mysteries. At that time, she was suddenly hit hard, and all her thoughts were discouraged, and she was bent on death, without thinking deeply about it at all. However, now......

Since God has given her another chance, she will definitely cherish it. If you want your father and mother to live a long and peaceful life, and to let your distant son ......, thinking of that soft little body, Liu Ruoxi's heart is like a knife again.

She must find out the truth, and she must make the black hand behind it pay the price!

"Mother, I will." Liu Ruoxi said softly, her heart was extremely firm.

"Grandma is here."

The two of them were talking, when they heard a little girl report outside.

"Your sister-in-law is here." The smile on Mrs. Liu's face deepened and she said happily.

Needless to say, of course she knew which one was coming. Liu Ruoxi's hand unconsciously pinched a jade hairpin.

The jade hairpin was in her hand, and she broke off in response.
