Chapter 9: The Truth

In the noble family, there are only a handful of sons who are both civil and military. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

There is a rumor in the market that there is Chu Zhuangyuan in the east city and Wen Tanhua in the west city. Because the Chu family's mansion was repaired to the east of the capital, while the Wen family was in the west, the power of the two families above the court was also competing with each other.

The maid behind Qiao Ruowan held a red lacquer square plate and handed it to Ruosu, but it was actually for the old lady to look at.

Ruo Su saw at a glance the sapphire auspicious cloud pattern bracelet, blue silver bead flower, and blue jade earrings that he had worn in his previous life, these were all a complete set of jewelry, and the color was also the same.

She remembered that Wen Tianyou would go to her room every few days with new patterns of jewelry, but his expression was always faint, and his thick eyebrows were always twisted into the word 'Chuan', and he couldn't help but say as he looked at her and said, "Your eldest sister bought it for you." ”

I am a concubine, and I have no chance to return to my hometown to save my relatives, so naturally no one has ever seen these jewelry clothes.

Qiao Ruowan's kung fu of belittling people is really good!

Take something used by a dead man as a gift to your cousin who met for the first time? Only she, Qiao Ruowan, can do it.

Ruosu's eyes were full of joy: "Thank you cousin Wan, Ruosu really likes it tight, it's just ----" She touched the gold thread yarn skirt and silver embroidered hundred butterfly flower skirts made of Shu brocade, and murmured: "This dress seems to be bigger, I can't wear it, eldest sister, you should keep it yourself." ”

She took the clothes and looked at them carefully, and accidentally shook them off, and the clothes immediately fell to the ground in her hands, and people with discerning eyes could see that they were bigger.

In the previous life, Qiao Ruosu was tall and tall, about the same height as Qiao Ruowan, and at this moment, because of her perennial frailty, she was only twelve years old, and she really hadn't grown up yet.

Mrs. Qiao has spent most of her life in the back house, not saying anything on her face, her heart is transparent, but one is the granddaughter of her relatives, and the other is the only bloodline of the late second daughter, and the palms and backs of her hands are full of meat, and her old man will turn a blind eye.

Qiao Ruowan was choked as if she wanted to eat a fly, and her expression was weird.

In the past month, she has not slept well, and every night she can dream that the third sister is standing in front of her bed covered in blood, and she is still holding a bloody baby in her arms.

Her jewelry and clothes should have been burned to be clean, but the things that Fujun bought for the third sister were all first-class good goods, hundreds of taels of silver, she put it aside for a while, and when she learned that her cousin came to live in Qiao's mansion for a long time, she got up and simply took these things as a favor.

But this little girl is really not easy to fool, Qiao Ruowan smiled awkwardly: "It's my cousin's poor consideration, the second aunt is beautiful and tall, I mistakenly thought that my cousin was the same, and when my mother sent someone to inform me, I didn't tell how old my cousin was, you see I did this!" ”

Chu Shi and Qiao Ruoyun's mother and daughter were silent with a smile, Qiao Ruojiao looked at a tray of good things, and her eyes were very greedy.

Ruo Su saw the expressions of these people in her eyes, this was a skill she had cultivated in her previous life, so her eyes flashed and said: "I see that Cousin Jiao is plump, and she is about to catch up with Cousin Wan, so it is better to give these clothes to Cousin Jiao." ”

When Qiao Ruojiao heard this, she suddenly had a great impression of her cousin, who she didn't like.

Qiao Ruowan was naturally willing to go down the steps, so she smiled and said, "It's okay, we are all sisters, and it's the same for everyone." ”

Aunt Wang is particularly good at jewelry and clothes, and at a glance she saw the set of jewelry on the tray glowing blue under the morning light, and said: "It's really a good thing, Sister Wan treats Sister Su really hard." ”

Qiao Ruojiao and Qiao Ruoxi's hearts are far inferior to Qiao Ruoyun and Ruosu, and they all pouted when they heard the words, since they are both sisters, why are they treated differently.

Tao glared at Aunt Wang, and he wanted to cut her with a thousand knives, he had never seen such a concubine who did not know etiquette.

Uncle Qiao also accepted two concubines, but they were all killed by Chu Shizhi, and so far the decoction of the child has not been broken, let alone put forward to show off the market!

Thinking of this, Dow was melancholy and aggrieved again!

Mrs. Qiao has been worshipping Buddha for many years, and she doesn't have much heart to deal with the smoke of the fire between her daughter-in-law, so she raised her voice and said, "Okay, okay, let's go back." ”

After everyone left, Ruosu accompanied Mrs. Qiao to the small Buddha hall in the backyard to recite the scriptures for a while.

Mrs. Qiao was very satisfied with this granddaughter, and she couldn't wait to spoil her on the tip of her heart: "Sister Su also likes to worship Buddha?" Your cousins were sleepy when they entered the Buddhist hall, that is, the third sister and Sister Wan used to be able to sit here with me for a while. ”

The concubine of the Qiao family is already a dead person, and in order to avoid suspicion, the old lady only calls her 'third sister' in front of Ruosu, not Sister Su.

Ruosu smiled lightly: "From now on, Ruosu will accompany her grandmother." ”

------

Jade Pavilion, a few plum trees next to the bluestone path in the front yard still have fallen stamens, and the green with tender yellow stars on the branches is already clearly visible, and the day of germination is not far away.

Mother Xu helped Tao sit on the chaise longue standing by the window in the room.

Tao Shi supported his forehead with one hand and waved his hand to Qiao Ruoxi, who followed into the house: "Sister Xi'er goes down first, mother and your eldest sister have something to say." ”

And so it is again!

Every time the eldest sister comes back, she becomes superfluous!

Although Qiao Ruoxi was unwilling, she didn't dare to disobey her mother, glared at the eldest sister, and went out angrily.

It's not that Tao is partial to the eldest daughter, but there are some things that Qiao Ruoxi can't know, her mind is too simple.

Qiao Ruowan couldn't pretend anymore, her beautiful face trembled under the disguise of fat powder, and Mother Xu brought her a pestle and said, "Miss, you have gone too far this time." ”

Tao sighed: "In vain, I have always praised you for being smart, no matter how jealous you are, you can't really kill people, you can't wait until she gives birth to a child?!" I've endured it for two years, and I'm still in a hurry for this time? If Wen Shizi finds out the truth, what will he do to you! ”

Tao was heartbroken, but she did not feel the slightest sadness about Qiao Ruosu's death, she felt sorry for her daughter's second half of her life, and then said angrily: "Liu's cheap hoof and I robbed favor, and her daughter robbed my daughter's husband, let's die, it's just that you are too irrational in this matter, as long as the child comes to your name all his life, you can do whatever you want with that little hoof, now it's good, you don't have to worry about the heir!" ”

Qiao Ruowan has been disturbed by nightmares recently, and her spirit is not very good, she twisted her handkerchief, and her eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment: "Mother, don't you see how well the prince treats her, I was also reluctant to let Sister Su enter the door at the beginning, if it wasn't for the consent of the prince, how could I really let my sister-in-law serve a husband ---!" ”

Tao sighed one after another: "This is also my mother's fault, I only thought about finding a way back for you, but I didn't expect Wen Shizi to really like that little hoof." If it weren't for your mother's strong persuasion, you wouldn't have easily fallen into his way. Talking about Qiao Ruosu, Tao was even more angry: "With her biological mother is a virtuous person, she looks delicate, and she is good at seducing-seducing-men." ”

Qiao Ruowan's calmness in front of outsiders had long since disappeared, and she looked at Tao with sobs, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.

Dow pondered for a while and said, "Everything has been dealt with?" Is Wen Shizi suspicious? ”

Qiao Ruowan froze and said: "The ginseng soup with poison was all poured, and even the porcelain bowl and medicine jar were smashed and thrown into the moat, and the slut's body was buried early, he --- he hasn't been back to the house in the past month, and I don't know where he went." ”

Dow hated that iron could not become steel, and reached out and poked her head hard: "You! Even your husband can't look down on it, how can you still take charge of the Wen family's affairs! ”
