Chapter 68: Knowing the Enemy

Xiusun's head was full of alarm bells, and she suddenly felt that it was dangerous to breathe the air in the same room as Aunt Zhao, and she leaned forward almost subconsciously, with some intention of blocking Ruan's behind.

Looking at the things in Ruan's hands, there are several square handkerchiefs, all of which are light background colors, high-quality materials, and embroidery are all in the corners, so I can't see clearly.

It won't be poisoned, Xiusun naturally thought, although no one has used such a blatant stupid method in this era for a long time.

The only explanation is that Aunt Zhao is crazy or has amnesia, doesn't she remember that she and Ruan's have long been out of the same day?

But Aunt Zhao's smile was still so sincere, and there was a dangerous stiffness in the sincerity.

Xiusun sensed that something was wrong, was she waiting for something?

Since Ruan was pregnant, she did not personally go into battle to repair the concubine's room, and this was the first time she met Zhao since she became pregnant.

She suddenly remembered that many, many years ago, it was a similar scene.

She was lying on the Xiangfei couch with a big belly, and the stomach that had just been pregnant was like a falling pain, and Aunt Zhao was also kneeling at her feet like this, with a humble and obedient face, and swore that she would leave the master in the main house. What else did she say in a hurry, she had to cut it first and then play.

In this way, he gave her a newly embroidered veil, a newly made shoe, and a newly cut clothes.

He also pulled this delicate face and smiled humbly and reverently at her.

It wasn't until many years later that she got acquainted with Ru Niangzi that she understood the cattiness of those things.

Anger and remorse swept over her mind like a storm, and that nasty face wanted to tear it apart.

The child in her stomach suddenly kicked her, and Ruan Shi suddenly returned to reality, slowly opening his fingers and gently covering the place where the child had just been kicked.

Warm, soft, through a thick belly, inside is a small child.

Raising his eyes to look at the familiar and unfamiliar face again, Ruan Shi suddenly couldn't remember that the string in his head was wrong back then, and he would endure his anger and grievances and believe in the rhetoric of this cheap * maid.

However, after all, it is not the same as it was back then, and something has changed.

The winter sun shines directly on her face through the window lattice, and Aunt Zhao's snow-white face has a little powder in the corners of her eyes.

She is no longer the vixen who was as fragile as glass back then, at most she is just a rag, when the white lotus flower is in full bloom, it is pitiful, and when it becomes a residual lotus, it is not as good as the lotus root in the mud.

She wanted to use the familiar scene to provoke her, and it was ten years ago, and she was still fresh.

Ruan glanced out of the window without a trace, knowing that she still had a back move, and she only had this one to use.

Do you want to play with her?

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of her daughter's nervous and vigilant little face, her rosy lips were tightly pursed, and her watery apricot eyes stared straight at Aunt Zhao kneeling on the ground. Like a fried cat.

Ruan Shi suddenly felt distressed and unbearable, she had been wantonly breaking jars for so many years, always worrying her daughter that she was really incompetent as a mother.

The anger that she had just forgotten about was back, and everyone turned their faces over, why didn't they fight?

"Mother Chen, give me ten mouths for her." Ruan scurled up on his knees, retracted his swollen feet from Chen's mother's arms, and pulled the thin blanket over his legs.

Mother Chen stopped talking, and no longer hesitated when she met Ruan's determined eyes, stood up and turned around and slapped Aunt Zhao's face.

Xiusun was stunned and shook Ruan's hand, this Aunt Zhao must be tired, Ruan's is not a trick?

was worried, when he saw the curtain of the outer door raised, Xiuguan dragged the eighth master in.

She stumbled a little, and rushed straight to the middle of the bright room, and now she sat at the angle of Ruan's and saw it.

Chen's mother was hitting the eighth blow, I don't know if she had already accumulated rich experience in struggle, but she didn't stop when she saw the eighth master coming, and when she finished making up for the last two slaps, the panting eighth master had time to stop it.

"You shrew, and a bully!" The eighth master saw Aunt Zhao lying on the ground, as pitiful as a silk handkerchief left on the side of the garden road, and he was so angry that he almost jumped up.

Ruan sat still and didn't move, ignoring Aunt Zhao's expression of having succeeded in her bad deeds.

The eighth old man walked into the west room with messy steps, pointing at Ruan's so angry that he couldn't speak.

Xiuguan cried "Auntie" and ran over and hugged Aunt Zhao, who seemed to have weak legs and couldn't get up, crying so much that she couldn't breathe, so pitiful.

The eighth master saw Aunt Zhao's red and swollen cheeks, and his voice trembled, "If Xiuguan hadn't brought me here, you would still be presumptuous!" ”

Unknowingly, Xiuguan was sold.

Aunt Zhao hugged the eighth master's thigh with a "snort", "Master, the slave maid embroidered a few squares of handkerchiefs and wanted to present them to the wife, but somehow the wife was angry, if the master wasn't here, the wife would have beaten the slave to death." ”

Well, Xiusun tried to understand Aunt Zhao's logic, what she meant was that Mrs. hated her, if the master was not there, she wouldn't be able to live, so the master had to take her with him?

It's basically true, but it depends on how much the master cares about her.

Ruan was still indifferent, and Xiusun was no longer worried, but was interested in what Ruan would say to him.

The eighth master was still there excited, pointing at Ruan's and saying, "People are kind, if you don't appreciate it, forget it, why do you have to embarrass others, it's really ......."

According to the usual routine, it was time for the eighth master to start sarcastically about Ruan's background, but when he remembered the ginseng that saved his life, he had to swallow the next words stupidly.

The tone couldn't help but slow down a little, "People have good intentions, so don't be careful." ”

Ruan Shi looked at the eighth old man and was unreasonable. He was not angry, but he was holding on, and smiled faintly, "Don't blame me, when the concubine is a double body, there is a strange smell when she smells those handkerchiefs, and Aunt Zhao's words are disrespectful, so she didn't hold back, so she got angry." ”

"What?" When the eighth master heard Ruan's mention of pregnancy, he first softened by two points, and then heard that there was a problem with the handkerchief sent by Aunt Zhao, and he was suddenly shocked, he still heard of one or two cases of concubines poisoning the housewife, and looked at Aunt Zhao suspiciously, and personally leaned over to pick up the handkerchief that fell on the carpet, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.

Does it really smell weird? Why didn't he smell it? But to say that there is no such thing as a little, it seems that there is a little bit more.

Xiusun also picked up the other handkerchief that fell beside her and raised it to her nose, and then raised the handkerchief slightly higher to cover the smile at the corner of her mouth, she glanced at Ruan Shi with a clear gaze, and saw Ruan's hidden blink, knowing that she acquiesced and cooperated with the performance.

"Really, it seems to have a bit of a taste." Xiusun hesitated, and as she spoke, she looked at the mother and daughter sitting on the ground with disbelief and pear blossoms with rain.

"Really?" The eighth master was puzzled, took the handkerchief in Xiusun's hand and sniffed it, and his good-looking eyebrows wrinkled tightly.

"Yes, Daddy," Xiusun nodded vigorously, "My daughter smells bitter, like ice and snow in the yard, and my mother can't touch anything that tastes bitter and cold when she is pregnant with her younger brother." (To be continued.) )
