Chapter 004: Re-entering Anfu
Wan Wan was curious for a moment, and lifted the curtain of the carriage, but saw a tall man in the courtyard waving a leather whip and whipping a ragged and unkempt little beggar, the little beggar was in his teens, and was very thin, and after receiving a few whips from the yard, he shrank on the ground and trembled.
The little beggar curled up on the ground, his panicked and helpless eyes met with Wan Wan leaning against the car window, Wan Wan couldn't help but be stunned, and his heart suddenly felt unbearable, but he was still unmoved. After all the things in her previous life, her heart has long been as hard as stone, what does the affairs of others have to do with her?
Fortunately, an old family member walked over, snatched the leather whip in the yard's hand, and scolded: "How much yellow soup has been poured into the blue sky during the day, and you are playing tricks on a child here?" Don't you know what the situation is right now? How much good virtue has the old man and the old lady accumulated by burning incense and praying, just to be able to accumulate blessings for the eldest and young master, you are good, take the chicken feather as an arrow, here the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, and you are not afraid of touching the gods and letting God blame? β
As he spoke, he picked up the little beggar on the ground and comforted: "Child, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, are you hungry?" Come with me to the kitchen for some dinner! The old family left with the little beggar.
Wan Wan looked at the back of the old man and the little beggar who were far away, and couldn't help but exhale a long breath in his heart.

At a glance, the suspected male protagonist floated past (*^__^*)

The arrival of Wan Wan is a long drought and a timely rain for the protector of the country, because An Shenlin's illness is really at the worst time, medicine has no effect, and Chongxi's superstitious home remedies, it is difficult to find a girl born on the first day of the first month of the first month in the country.
After listening to Ya Po's report, the protector couldn't wait to bring Hua Wanwan to him.
In the previous life, Hua Wanwan first entered Anfu, but a rough village girl who didn't know a big word, saw the smooth gold bricks covered in Anfu like a mirror, and the beautiful octagonal palace lamp hanging above her head, the room was full of rosewood inlaid with ivory flowers and glass Nanmu partitions, and rosewood and sour branch wood made of furniture, extremely luxurious, ingenious, breathtaking, couldn't help but be shocked to hold her breath, at that time she couldn't call the name of these woods, and even born unheard of, never seen, just sighed in her heart: It's too muchβ¦β¦ Luxury!
However, at this moment, Hua Wanwan, who should have been shocked by these rich scenes, didn't even look at these beautiful ornaments, but just stepped forward gently, smiled and saluted the Protector couple on the main seat, and said, "Wan Wan has seen the old lady and the old lady. β
In the previous life, although the Duke of Protector was quite kind, and the Duchess of Protector was kind, she still cowered, helpless, and opened a pair of frightened eyes like a frightened bird. At this moment, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is loud.
The Protector and his wife glanced at each other, slightly shocked in their hearts. Although the clothes in front of Hua Wanwan are shabby, but the temperament is demure, the age is still young, the facial features have not yet grown, but the face is delicate, especially a pair of eyes are like a clear spring in the valley, exceptionally clear**, it is more rare to behave, clearly seen the world in general, dignified and polite, not at all petty. How can this be a girl who was born in the mountains and grew up in the mountains?
The second elder couldn't help but feel a little happy at Hua Wanwan.
The Huguo Gong couple has four sons and two daughters, the sons and daughters are married separately, and there are dozens of descendants underneath, which can be described as prosperous, but An Shenlin has a different meaning for the Huguo Mansion, the long house and grandchildren, and the first-class reputation of the family.
Except for the eldest lord who stayed in Kyoto, the other three sons were all outside the office, and at this moment, the second elder had already sent someone to invite the eldest lord and the wives of the fourth room.
As in the previous life, the eldest man, the eldest lady, the second wife, the third wife, and the fourth wife all arrived in the hall and sat on both sides. Except for the eldest lord and the eldest lady who seriously examined Hua Wanwan, the other three rooms all had the mentality that it was not their own business, after all, it was not their son who was sick, but because the old lady and the old lady were worried, they also made a concerned appearance.
In the previous life, when she cautiously entered the Protector's Mansion, the eldest lady looked herself up and down, the smile on her face was very gentle, and she said lightly, "Hmm", and said: "This child looks blessed, I hope Shen Lin's illness can be cured from now on." β
At that time, she was already cowering and nervous, naturally she couldn't understand the helplessness and resignation in the eyes of the eldest lady, and only regarded her as a female bodhisattva with a kind smile.
It is true that if the grandson of the long-term family of the dignified Protector Mansion was not in danger and needed Chong Xi to save his life, how could he choose an illiterate village aunt like her as his granddaughter-in-law? Spreading it out will make people laugh out of their big teeth. It's just that who would have thought that her life character born on the first day of the first month of the first month is not only rich and noble, but also so rich that one day the mother will honor the world, and even this Protector Mansion is just a small temple, which can't fit her big Buddha.
The Duchess of Huguo said to Hua Wanwan: "Child, don't be afraid, these will be your relatives and elders in the future, these two here are your in-laws, and those three are your second, third and fourth aunts, you have seen them one by one!" β
"There are a lot of people in Anfu, don't admit your mistake." The second aunt is a kind reminder.
This is an old man who has lived together for four years in his previous life, how could Hua Wanwan admit his mistake?
She stepped forward and greeted them one by one: "I have seen the eldest master, the eldest wife, the second aunt, the third aunt, the fourth aunt......"
"It's a smart and clever one, I've never seen it, but I recognize a few of us perfectly, what's your name?" It was the third aunt who spoke, and her phoenix eyes were extremely restless.
Hua Wanwan smiled sweetly, and said without hurry: "The valley gives birth to Youlan, and the spring comes to Hua Wanwan, because the little girl's surname is Hua, and she was born in the first spring of the first month of January, and her father named the little girl Hua Wanwan. β
The Duchess of the Protector glanced at the Duke of the Protector, and her eyes were full of approval. Everyone looked at each other, and they all showed amazing looks.
The third wife, who has always been clever and eloquent, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "I thought that this child was born in the countryside, and he could actually recite poetry, it seems that the eldest brother and sister-in-law have earned it this time." β
The Duchess of the Protector has always disliked the third wife, thinking that she is frivolous, and at this moment she glanced at the third wife coldly, and the third lady was silent, but there was schadenfreude on her face that could not be hidden. Even if this girl really has the blessing of pouring the sky, she used her to rush to joy and save the life of Young Master An, but so what? After all, from a low background, the future of the An family in the officialdom is not beneficial, so even if the An family does not lose An Shenlin, the eldest son and grandson, there is no scenery at all.
The eldest lady has always been arrogant, how could she not know how gloating the third lady was in her heart, but her son's illness was in danger, and for the sake of today's plan, she just wanted her son to pick up a life by relying on the stinky girl in front of her, and she didn't think much about the rest.
The Lord Protector said to the eldest lord and wife: "I know that this marriage has wronged Shen Lin, but now there is no way to do it, as long as Shen Lin can have a breath, it is the Bodhisattva who blesses me to settle down." β
Who dares not to agree with the matter of the husband and wife of the protector?
That night, he put up lanterns in the Huguo Mansion, and let Hua Wanwan and An Shenlin worship the happy hall and send them to the cave room.
The second wife looked at the new house with red candles swaying in the window, and asked the third wife: "Can Chongxi really save Shen Lin's life?" β
"So what do you want the doctor to do?" The third lady sneered.
The fourth wife has always been gentle and kind to others, and she is also the most popular with the old lady. She clasped her palms together and said sincerely: "May the Bodhisattva bless you, this flower can turn the Shenlin into a safe place." β
The second wife is a two-faced person, seeing the fourth wife praying for blessings, she also pretended to bow to the sky a few times, the third wife disagreed, rolled her eyes, twisted her waist and left.
This night is destined to be sleepless for the old man and the wife. Whether Chong Xi can save the life of his baby son will be known after tomorrow.
In the new house, the red candle had a high fever, An Shenlin lay on the bed and fell asleep, Hua Wanwan sat in front of the bed and looked at the sleeping people on the bed, and couldn't help but have a sour nose, and tears rose in his eyes.
All kinds of past lives are vivid.
In the previous life, the next day of Chongxi, the doctor came to check An Shenlin's pulse, and he was overjoyed to report to the husband and wife of the protector, and most of the cold accumulated in An Shenlin's body dissipated, and there was hope for recovery.
After he recovered from his illness, he read and read with her, went in and out together, childhood sweethearts, and were inseparable. For the An family's different treatment of her from a humble background, he stepped forward, even An Nian's nonsense, and he reprimanded her harshly without mercy. He often said that she was his lucky star, because of her, he recovered from his illness and picked up a life from the hands of death, and he was her patron saint for four years.
Even in the end, on the night of the round house, he died violently, and when he was dying, he told An Nianxi to save her life no matter what.
Hua Wanwan looked at An Shenlin, who was thin and immature on the bed, and her heart swelled with tenderness: "You are so stupid, how can you be willing to be poisoned by An Nianxi in order to protect me?" Do you know how badly I was harmed by An Nianxi after you died! β
Hua Wanwan held An Shenlin's hand, put it on his face, and resolutely said: "In this life, I am back, then I will be your patron saint, and I will never let An Nianxi harm your life again!" β
This is the teenage lover she has been in love with for four years.
But things were not as smooth as Hua Wanwan thought, the next day, An Shenlin did not wake up, and even his breathing was only a twitch, extremely weak, the doctor came to look at An Shenlin, shook his head heavily, and said: "It's better to prepare for the eldest young master as soon as possible!" β
The doctor gave An Shenlin a death verdict, and the entire An Mansion was overturned for a while, and the chickens and dogs were restless.
The eldest lady and the old lady are women, and they have to beat their chests and sobs bitterly. The eldest man and the old lady are men in the end, and their hearts are painful, and they just sigh for a long time on their faces.
In order to avoid his parents being too sad, the eldest man thought that the long pain was better than the short pain, so he gritted his teeth and decided: "Prepare for the future!" β
