Chapter 166: Filthy
At that time, he was only eight or nine years old, right? Amma seemed to like this new entry, he had so many women, but none of them were more favored than her. When she became pregnant, Ama was even more overjoyed, shushing the cold every day and lingering every night. Tong Jia's pregnancy is sweet, and Ama hired a special master to make all kinds of food for her alone, and even a wedding girl next to Eniang was unintentionally praised by her because of the red bean paste she made, and was assigned to her by Amma...... He doted on her so much that in those days, he was a little cold to Eniang and to him as a sister-in-law......
But then, where did she go? His eyes were hollow again.
Oh, he remembered...... For some reason, in the middle of that year, Tong Jia's belly was only seven months old, but she suddenly saw red, and that night, she could not give birth to the next dead baby, and she died of excessive blood loss. According to the people in the house, the child was born black and purple, which was terrifying. Born in Zhongyuan, it was this tragic scene again, although Ama was sad, but he also felt ominous, so he hastily asked someone to bury their mother and son, and the courtyard was also sealed......
Why did he suddenly think of her tonight?
Oh yes......
He never told anyone......
He knew how she died.
That summer, Eniang's yard was full of flowers, even if it was a stunning oleander, it was also submerged in a pile of famous flowers......
In fact, what Eniang is best at with the wedding girl is not red bean paste, but all kinds of pastries full of floral fragrance......
There was no shortage of dirty things in the house, he knew, always known.
How could he not be filthy himself?
………………
Come out, it's already time.
"How do you deal with ......" Mama Yun hesitated, "Mrs. Chen's daughter?" "She's not going to live, is that girl really going to sell to the land of fireworks? Mama Yun couldn't bear it.
Li Xuan was silent for a while before he said slowly, "Give her some money and let it out." ”
"Yes." Mama Yun's brows softened slightly.
The moonlight outside was very good, Li Xuan looked up in a trance, and suddenly asked, "Mama, have you been in this place for a long time...... People change? ”
Mama Yun knew what he was referring to, and after thinking for a while, she said in a deep voice, "Who woman in this world doesn't want to have a good person, a husband and a child, and be safe in this world?" It's just that there is only one beloved, and there are variables...... But it's too much......"
"But Xiyan ......" his eyes were red and choked, "Why hasn't it changed......"
"Gege is simple-minded and sincere, which is the most valuable." If you have a little bit of a mind to prevent people from harming others, maybe today, you will not come to this point.
"I'd rather ......," he paused.
Rather what? I'd rather she become a mother, and I'd rather be a person like that? Would she rather she also become unrecognizable in the years, and no longer the person who made him fall in love with him at the beginning?
He shook his head.
It's him, it's that he's too incompetent to keep her safe, can't keep her safe.
obviously wants to shelter her from the wind and rain, so that she will not be displaced and let her not be hurt at all...... But he broke his promise.
How deep does it take for her to be so frightened and helpless, that she doesn't even dare to have a child of her own...... She asked people to catch the elixir, didn't she cut off all her expectations and future roads?
But he didn't even give her a chance to explain......
He laughed silently, and inexplicably burst into tears.
Tonight is destined to be an extraordinary night.
It seems that the fate of many people has changed on this night.
And what he didn't know was that that night, Xiyan fell ill again.
When the next man found her, she was curled up under the bookcase. The bracelet that had been on her wrist shattered into several pieces at some point, and she held it tightly in her hand, and blood dripped down her white wrist, staining her white middle coat red.
The maids were immediately frightened, and while calling someone to report the news to the Wen Mansion, they were afraid to persuade them.
She just stared blankly at the painting on the ground.
For a long time, Xiyan suddenly smirked. Like a child who gets candy, she carefully spread her palms, and her voice was light and sweet, "Look, this was given to me by Li Xuan, and he said that he likes me too......"
Ziyu burst into tears instantly.
The palm of the hand was already blurred with flesh and blood, and the blood seemed to seep into the jade bracelet, which was crystal clear, but it was full of bewitching bright red.
………………
Li Xuan didn't know about any of this.
Even early in the morning, Du Zhong, who was sent by Wen Shaoqian to deliver the letter, failed to see him.
The subordinates in the house said that the prince had important matters to deal with, and no one was allowed to disturb them.
………………
There was a change in the house, and Ning Ruo would know it when he got up in the morning.
No, actually earlier.
In the middle of the night, she was suddenly woken up by Cai Shi.
She has always slept lightly, and if it weren't for something important, she wouldn't dare to quarrel with her at this time.
She opened her eyes dimly and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
Cai Shi sobbed, "Master, something happened......"
She came to her senses instantly.
The girl who slept in the next room said that the painting was taken away by the prince's people at night.
She sent someone to inquire about the news, and at the same time, there was also Steward Sun in the kitchen. And Mrs. Chen of Bibo Courtyard is said to have disappeared all day.
She asked Cai Shi to make a cup of strong tea and drank it slowly. She had a premonition that disaster was imminent, but she was extremely calm.
Will they recruit her? A cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She never pinned her hopes on anyone.
She knew from a very young age that she had only herself to rely on to survive here.
Aunt? Cousin?
No, she only has herself.
Xi Yan followed Li Xuan in a hurry, and when her brother and brother screamed, she understood that if she wanted something, she could only fight for it by herself.
………………
Li Xuan came early in the morning.
It can be seen that he didn't have a good night. There was a green stubble on his chin, and his eyes were bloodshot.
She watched him walk towards her step by step, and suddenly felt a little sad in her heart, and she also wanted to laugh.
It's sad that even now, even though she knows that all the love/love of the man in front of her has been given to another person, she still likes him, and she will still be uncomfortable when she sees him so uncomfortable. It's funny...... She thought she was amused to herself. Trying to marry him, consuming all the enthusiasm and longing in the inner house, in the end, it was just a dream of self-deception.
In the past, she also naively thought that as long as she treated him attentively, one day, he would forget that person, forget the lovesickness that was not worth mentioning. She strives to be a good wife, take care of his diet and daily life, and care about his every bit of it. And he is really good to her: he takes good care of himself and cleans himself. Even though they never had children after marriage, he never showed a trace of dissatisfaction...... On those days, she was content. Raise your eyebrows and fall in love, that's it.
But this qiē, just because of Xiyan's return to Beijing, has changed...... (To be continued.) )
