The next morning, my father returned, looking a little haggard and with some disgust in his expression.

Xia Ruan saw his father like this, and thought a little.

My father didn't return overnight, presumably at my uncle's house.

What did the eldest uncle say that made my father so disgusted that he had to return home.

The New Year was approaching, Xia Ruan was busy talking to Steward Wang about the spring of the coming year, and when he was free, he felt that something was wrong.

Before she could figure it out, she heard hurried footsteps outside the house.

After Cuiliu opened the curtain, a cold air blew into the house, and the cold Xia Ruan shivered.

"Miss, it's not good, Xu Liu brought someone here......" Cuiliu trotted all the way in a hurry, and now she was a little out of breath, "Yes, uncle, the person brought by the uncle." ”

Xia Ruan was a little confused when he heard this, the eldest uncle brought someone here? Who the hell is bringing here will make Cuiliu so panicked.

Xia Ruan hurriedly picked up the tea cup resting on the pine table and handed it to Cuiliu: "Don't worry, you speak slowly." ”

Cuiliu said such a sentence, and her voice was already choked. In the end, she didn't take the tea cup in Xia Ruan's hand, but covered her face and sobbed and cried: "Uncle, he's too much...... What can I do now...... Madame?"

Xia Ruan's eyes couldn't help but sink: "Who?" Who brought Xu Liu. ”

"Isn't that fox on Flower Street? The uncle actually ransomed the fox girl, and asked Xu Liu to pick it up. Cuiliu gritted her teeth when she said this, her face full of anger, "Miss, you hurry up and go to the front hall to take a look, you must not let this fox into the house today, otherwise how can this house live in peace in the future." Uncle, this must be deliberate, you must know that Mrs. Lu Dao is a happy person now, and she has been stimulated by this. ”

How so?

Xia Ruan bit her lower lip and hurriedly put on the cloak of the big red feather veil, and the creepy picture in her dream flashed in her mind: her father's death was unknown, and the eldest uncle asked Xu Liu to transport her father's corpse back, and she secretly glanced at it. The father, who is usually handsome, has long been reduced to dry bones. The mother reluctantly jumped into the river to find herself, and the last thing she saw was her mother's swollen body and slightly bulging lower abdomen......

Could it be that things are going to develop like they used to be?

Even if she is reborn, is she destined to not be able to change all this?

No, no...... Xia Ruan subconsciously clenched her fists, her mother must live a long life.

"Miss, you go slowly." Cuiliu followed behind Xia Ruan and reminded anxiously, she had never seen Xia Ruan like this, and her whole body seemed to exude a strong anger, "The road is too slippery, you be careful to fall." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xia Ruan subconsciously stopped, but he almost made Cuiliu bump into his arms.

Cuiliu looked at Xia Ruan with some concern for a while, and then tried to shout, "Miss? ”

Xia Ruan restrained his mind for a moment, feeling that the corners of his eyes hurt badly, and his heart was like a pinprick in his heart. She slowed down for a while, then took a deep breath before she said lightly, "It's okay, let's go." Wait, whatever you hear or see, remember not to say too much, and you must hold back. I know that you feel sorry for your mother, why shouldn't I? It's just that no matter how wrong the eldest aunt is, it won't be our turn to say half of her right and wrong, especially in front of the eldest uncle and father, do you know what to say? ”

The more critical this is, the more you have to hold your breath.

Xia Ruan knew that Cuiliu felt sorry for her mother, and she had quarreled with her aunt about things in Zhuangzi back then, but she let her aunt take advantage of the loophole, and it was not the one who was the last to count her mother. In the end, my mother gave my aunt a lot of new materials, and the matter was over.

"Miss, the slave maid has learned the truth." Cuiliu didn't know if it was her own delusion, and the anger on Xia Ruan's body seemed to be a little heavier, which made her tremble.

The inside of the hall was quiet, unlike the cold outside, which was not cold inside.

The mother sat next to her father, the corners of her eyes were a little red, and she was slightly stunned.

The eldest uncle and the eldest aunt sat on the chairs on the left, and the two of them lowered their heads to drink tea, unable to guess their expressions.

The girl kneeling at her mother's feet, about sixteen or seventeen, wore a pink and white silk carved silk mouse jacket, a green and green gold embroidered cotton skirt, and a blue satin gray mouse gown. The eyebrows are braided with a circle of pigtails, always to the top of the center, knotted with a total braid of the thickness of a goose egg, dragged behind the head in the right ear and eye only stuffed with a small jade plug the size of a grain of rice, and the left ear is single with a hard red gold pendant the size of a white fruit, the more obvious face is as white as the full moon, and the eyes are like autumn water.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yue was so delicate, no wonder her father would rather spend Chinese New Year's Eve with her on Flower Street than go home for reunion.

Just for something, Xia Ruan felt that Zhou Yue was familiar......

"Ruan girl is here? Just come over and salute Aunt Zhou. Zhao put the teacup on the table, then stood up, walked to Xia Ruan's side, and smiled lightly, "In the future, Aunt Zhou and you are also a family, and you have to treat her as an elder." ”

Family? Elders?

Xia Ruan thought it was funny, the eldest aunt helped Zhou Yue carry her identity, if she saluted Zhou Yue, then how sad should her mother be? If she doesn't salute Zhou Yue, she will definitely have a reputation for not knowing the rules.

It's just that the rules are set for those who are incapacitated, and those who have the ability can turn everything that is beneficial to them into rules. Ever since she asked the king to do those things, she was destined to have nothing to do with the word rules.

If the rules are good for her, she will follow them. If the rules are not good for her, the rules will naturally no longer be rules.

Xia Ruan was not angry at this time, but said coldly: "Since the beginning of winter, my mother's health has not been very good. Auntie, you are also a person with a body, you must be cautious when you go out, it seems that you are about to reach Chinese New Year's Eve......"

Zhao Shi looked at Xia Ruan with wide eyes, and she naturally heard the meaning of Xia Ruan's words.

This damn slut actually cursed the child in her womb for being unstable, if she hadn't come for something else today, she would have turned her face and slapped Xia Ruan.

Zhao Shi gathered his thoughts, and there was a disdainful smile on his face: "Hey, Ruan girl, you also know that Lu Dao's father is an infatuated person." Last night, I came to my aunt and told my aunt that he wanted to take a concubine. Originally, the eldest aunt shouldn't have been troublesome, but thinking that it would be inconvenient for the eldest aunt to leave in the spring of the next year, so I specially asked your uncle and father to do this by himself. No, I picked up Aunt Zhou early in the morning. ”

As soon as the king left on the front foot, the eldest aunt let the eldest aunt take Zhou Yue over on the back foot, what kind heart can she have? It seems that there is never peace in other people's houses, and the eldest aunt will feel a little relieved in her heart.

Xia Ruan raised her eyebrows, the eldest aunt said that there was a needle in the cotton, but she didn't want to answer this sentence, she just didn't say anything.

Seeing that Xia Ruan did not have the slightest anger, Zhao was slightly annoyed in his heart, so he subconsciously held Xia Ruan's hand and wanted to add a few more words. But he didn't want Xia Ruan to move away directly, deliberately ignored the Zhao family, and took a few steps to the Li family's side. Leaned down and called out cordially: "Mother? ”

Li's gloomy eyes gradually added a look, and her already reddish eyes were filled with tears at this time, and she opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't know what to say. After a while, Li Shi showed a stiff smile: "Why is Ruan Yatou here, it's windy and snowy outside, you wear so little, is it cold?" ”

Xia Ruan only felt that the vision in front of her was blurry, and at this time, her mother was still concerned about whether she was frozen or not. Xia Ruan couldn't help but grab her mother's hand and wanted to hold it in the palm of her hand. But she felt a cold breath, she was startled, and before she could speak, she was preempted by her father.

Xia Fucheng's voice was a little displeased: "Madam, how long do you have to kneel in Yue'er?" She was too weak to stand such a toss. ”

Zhou Yue heard this, and two lines of tears quietly slid down her cheeks: "Master...... The concubine should salute her wife. After finishing speaking, he lowered his eyes, his body trembled violently, and he added three points of pity, looking extremely delicate.

It's okay not to say this, as soon as Xia Fucheng saw Zhou Yue's shoulder twitching, his face immediately changed, and he accused the Li family: "Li Changyue, what do you want to do, are you going to make me embarrassed here today?" Don't think I don't know what you're thinking in your heart as a jealous woman. ”
