Chapter 6: Ghost Crashing
What catches your eye is a lake-blue plain silk tent, like this Sujuan, the princess family will only use it to reward the next person, and will never use it. The family of poetry and books thinks that it has no background, and the families of small families can't afford to use it.
Because it is easy to clean, many inns like to use this fabric.
Gu Chongyang sat up and looked at the living room he was in.
In the small room, in addition to the kang under him, there is also a wide hanger, a table, and four stools next to the table, all of which are made of acacia wood.
In the black lacquer tray on the table, there is a blue and white porcelain teapot and three tea bowls of the same color. It turned out that it should be four, but because of what she said just now, Mama Wu was so scared that she broke one.
In the place against the wall, there is a half-old Sujuan screen, and if you want to come to the screen to cover it, it must be an object such as a gong bucket.
It seems that I guessed correctly, this is indeed an inn.
Gu Chongyang wanted to get off the kang and put on his shoes, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
She couldn't reach the ground, why was this kang so tall?
Why are the embroidered shoes placed under the kang so small? and his hands and feet, all shrunk a lot.
What the hell is going on?
Gu Chongyang tiptoed down the kang, and when she put on her shoes, she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw bluestone bricks on the ground, and a beam of light shining in through the window covered with oiled paper.
A bold idea came in, when she lived in the Liangxiang Grange, she heard the tenant ladies in the village say that ghosts have no shadow.
She stood up, avoiding the water stains on the floor, and put her hand into the light.
The white tender hand still had a bit of baby fat, casting a small hand shadow on the ground. As her fingers spread and clenched, they changed like shadows.
There are shadows!
Gu Chongyang was overjoyed, she was not a ghost, she was still alive!
The people I saw just now were all living people, not ghosts.
In this way, Mama Wu's concealment, the panic in Qingzhi and Luwu's eyes can be explained.
She went back in time.
But what time is it and how old is she? Also, how could she be at the inn?
There was a sound of small talking at the door, and Gu Chongyang tiptoed to the door and put his ear on the crack of the door.
“…… I'm dazzled, I can't see clearly, Qingzhi, you hurry up and miss it. ”
Gu Chongyang looked out along the crack in the door, and saw Mama Wu handing a book to Qing Zhi, and there were five big characters written on the book: Wanquan Jade Box Record.
It turned out to be a book sent away.,The nonsense I just had.,Mama Wu probably thought she had collided with some ghosts.。
Just now, I was worried about how to explain to Mama Wu, but now it seems that I don't need to explain.
Qingzhi took it, flipped through it for a while, and Fang was pleasantly surprised: "There is." ”
"Be quiet." Mama Wu and Lu Wu scolded her at the same time: "Carefully shouted Miss carefully." ”
Only then did Qing Zhi lower her voice and read: "On the nineteenth day of September, the lower realm of the planet. Women don't like this star, there are many strange dreams on the main night, and there are many nonsense on the day, so it is not suitable to travel far. Write "Central Wu has Tude Xingjun" with a yellow tablet, five lights, and worship it in the west, Daji. ”
When Mama Wu heard this, she recited a sentence of Amitabha: "I can find it now, isn't it just nonsense?" Madame also couldn't sleep well all night, and she had to worry about Miss during the day, so it was easy to squint for a while. ”
"For the old lady's birthday, the old lady was too fast, and the waterway was dry, and she didn't even look at the yellow calendar when she went out. The young lady was sick, and the lady was also sick. ”
Lu Wu couldn't help but say: "It's okay now, hurry up and prepare paper money and lamps, and send them to Mrs. and Miss." ”
"I'm going to have to do it myself. The inn was simple, and if you wanted nothing, you had to tell people to buy it on the street. Mama Wu said to Qingzhi and Luwu: "Haosheng looked at Miss, I'll go back when I go." There is chicken soup simmering on the stove, and when the young lady wakes up, feed the young lady to eat, but you can't be lazy. ”
Luwu and Qingzhi responded in unison, and Mama Wu left.
After listening to what he said just now, Gu Chongyang already knew where he was now.
It is now the 40th anniversary of Jianxing, and today is September 19, and my mother is still alive. In the last life, my mother died violently on the 8th day of the first month of November.
In other words, there is still a month and a half before the death of my mother.
No, she can't let her mother die.
She was reborn again, and she had to change the tragedy of the previous life no matter what.
She wants to heal her mother's illness, and she wants to see her mother.
Gu Chongyang opened the door without hesitation, and Lu Wu, who was sitting on the small stool, immediately stood up, with a nervous face: "Miss, why did you get out of bed?" You're just in need of a retreat. ”
As she spoke, she stepped forward and took Gu Chongyang's hand, and while leading her back, she said, "Are you hungry?" Mama Wu stewed chicken soup with you, and Qingzhi has already served it, so you can eat it later. ”
After recovering from a serious illness, Gu Chongyang had no appetite at all, and she only wanted to see her mother now.
"Sister Luwu, I don't want to eat chicken soup, I'm going to find my mother."
"Madame's body is not well, you made trouble all night last night, and Madame finally rested." Lu Wu said step by step: "Miss, if you want to see Madame, when Madame wakes up after a while, I asked Qingzhi to invite Madame to come." Madame doesn't know how happy she would be to know that you are awake. You have to be obedient and don't worry your lady. ”
Speak as if you were a vexatious child.
Although Gu Chongyang is a ten-year-old child now, he is already an adult's soul in his bones after all, and Lu Wu is holding her hand like this, coaxing her like a child, which makes her very unaccustomed.
She wrenched away from the green turnip, turned and walked out.
"Miss!" Lu Wu panicked, and hurriedly chased after him and stopped the door: "Miss, the doctor said that you have recovered from a long illness and can't see the wind, you are obedient, don't go out." ”
"I'm cured." Gu Chongyang said to Lu Wu: "I'm not messing around. If I don't go, my mother will get sicker and sicker, and maybe she will be left with the root of the disease. I'm going to see my mother, she'll be fine soon, don't stop me. ”
Lu Wu pleaded deaf ears: "Good young lady, you can be obedient." When Mama Wu comes back, you can do whatever you want, and if I let you out now, Mama Wu will definitely blame me. ”
"Mama Wu is back, so naturally I will go and tell her." Gu Chongyang said: "I will do things by myself, and I will never let you bear half of the responsibility." ”
Lu Wu didn't believe it: "Miss, Mama Wu will be back soon." You'll just wait a little longer, okay? ”
To put it simply, it's not to let yourself out. And Gu Chongyang can be sure that even if Mama Wu comes back, she will not agree to go out by herself.
Now that Mama Wu and Qingzhi are not there, she just has to convince Luwu to be alone, and when Mama Wu comes back, it will be even more difficult for her to go out.
Gu Chongyang was so angry that his apricot eyes widened, and he pursed his lips and stared at the green wu.
Under her forced gaze, Lu Wu gradually lowered her head, not daring to look at her.
Gu Chongyang is only ten years old, but Luwu is already fifteen years old. If you come hard, you will definitely not be able to break out, you have to outwit it.
Neither of them spoke, and could only hear Gu Chongyang's gasping voice.
Suddenly, her face was happy, and she happily said to the door: "Mama Wu, you are finally back." ”
Lu Wu hurriedly turned around, but found that there was no one behind him.
Taking advantage of her turning, Gu Chongyang got out of her side with a cat's waist.
Lu Wu's face changed greatly, and he shouted at Gu Chongyang's back: "Miss, come back quickly." ”
If Gu Chongyang would have listened to her, she wouldn't have been planning to run out just now, as if she hadn't heard, she didn't turn her head and ran forward.
Heavy footsteps echoed on the second floor of the inn.
She knew that her mother and father's house was on the other side of the cloister.
Hearing the movement, the big maid in the mother's house opened the door and came out to see what was going on, Gu Chongyang had already run to the door and broke in without saying a word.
The mother was wearing a half-worn blue woven dark flower bamboo leaf brocade open-collar placket, leaning on the autumn fragrant brocade pillow, because Gu Chongyang was moving too much, the mother raised her head in astonishment.
When she saw that it was Gu Chongyang, a happy smile appeared on her face: "Oops, my little girl has finally woken up." Why are you here now? Dizzy or not? Is it still uncomfortable? Have you ever eaten? ”
小囡囡,小囡囡...... Only mothers call themselves little girls.
The kind tone and doting eyes are exactly the same as in memory.
The appearance of her mother slowly became blurred in her previous memory, but she always remembered the way her mother looked at her, as if she was the most precious jewel in the world, and her mother was willing to protect it with a qiē.
Just like at this moment, her originally weak face brightened up because she saw herself.
"Mother!" Gu Chongyang couldn't bear it anymore, and threw himself into his mother's arms crying.
"Okay, little girl, my mother knows that you don't want to drink medicine, and she knows that she has been detaining you in this inn lately and making you feel wronged. It's all because your mother is not good, she didn't take good care of you, and she let you suffer from the cold. ”
Mother's hand gently patted Gu Chongyang's back, with infinite patience: "When we return to the capital, mother will take you to Guangji Temple to eat food, okay?" ”
In the capital, Guangji Temple is a temple with the same name as Tantuo Temple.
The difference is that Tantuo Temple is in the suburbs of Beijing, and the scenery is very beautiful; And Guangji Temple is at the intersection of the west market in the Fucheng Gate, which is the most lively area in the capital. There are rows of shops there, all kinds of goods from the south to the north, and shops opened by Westerners and Hu people, only what you can't think of, and nothing you can't buy.
In the past, after hearing such words, Gu Chongyang would have jumped into his mother's arms with joy, and said coquettishly "Mother is so good" and something like that. But after experiencing rebirth, she is no longer an ignorant child, and her mother coaxes her like this, which makes her even more sad, and tears flow more and more.
The mother couldn't help laughing: "What's the matter?" Who wronged us four young ladies? ”
