Ouyang Luo and Xiao Ou sat on the kang and saw Li Ziyu come in, and said to Su Nian, "Xiao Wu, tell me what the hell is going on?" Wasn't it all the same? How will you survive? ”

Li Ziyu also looked at the expression on Su Nian's face seriously, not letting go of any subtleties.

Su Nian took a deep breath, strongly suppressed the horror and despair of recalling the past, stared blankly at a place in the corner of the room, and slowly narrated.

Su Nian's real name is Ouyang Man, and she is the daughter of Ouyang Jingde's second son, Ouyang Hao Peng, ranking fifth. Because she has been smart and cute since she was a child, Mrs. Ouyang likes her very much, and always calls her "Little Five" and "Little Five".

When the catastrophe was approaching that day, Ouyang Man was in his rose courtyard with his aunt and maid Su Nian, using the balm made of collected flower petals to make skin care.

Because he was afraid of getting his clothes dirty, Ouyang Man wore an old dress, and the maid Su Nian wore it better than her.

When Ouyang Man was lying comfortably on the bed enjoying the pleasure brought by applying his face, he heard a rush of footsteps coming from far and near, and the courtyard door was pushed open by Mama Li who hurriedly broke in.

Mama Li, who has always been steady, had a blue and yellow face, and said urgently with a pale face: "Grandma, Fifth Miss, something is wrong!" Our family was surrounded by officials and soldiers, and it was said that the old capital was a traitor to the enemy, all the men were beheaded, and the women were sold. I heard the old sisters in the old lady's yard say that the old lady could not let the ladies of the family be sold to a dirty place, I am afraid that it will"

Ouyang Man suddenly stood up from the bed. trembling with fright, he screamed in horror: "Mother! ”

Although Aunt Jian was also frightened, when she saw her daughter Ouyang Man. Miraculously calmed down. Although she guessed that the old lady was to let everyone be martyred to protect her chastity, she knew that it was better to die than to live. Therefore, in an emergency, she was thinking about how to keep her only daughter alive.

However, even though she is usually smart and witty, she can't think of a way to let her daughter survive.

At this time, the maid Su Nian knelt on the ground with a "plop". He said in a firm tone: "Auntie, let the slave die instead of the young lady." The slave and the fifth lady look alike, and the officers and soldiers will not recognize it. ”

Aunt Jane's momentary surprise quickly receded. There was a look of unbearability and contradiction on his face: "No! You are also a life, how can I bear it"

Su Nian said very firmly: "Auntie, if it weren't for you, our brothers and sisters would have been arrested and imprisoned in a lawsuit." You treat me as if you were repaying you for saving your life. Miss Five. My brother is a handyman in the outer yard. Won't be noticeable. If you take the silver hairpin to my brother, he will know my choice, and he will really protect you. ”

As he spoke, he plucked a silver hairpin from his head and handed it to Ouyang Man.

Ouyang Man took the silver hairpin with trembling hands, and couldn't help but hug Su Nian and cry bitterly.

In this way, on the night of the siege of the officers and soldiers, the old lady Ouyang swallowed arsenic with her daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, granddaughter, great-granddaughter, and aunt. By the time the officers and soldiers came in, they were all exhausted. No one survived.

The officers and soldiers took the portraits to verify that they were behind them, and then went back to report.

What is rare is that the officers and soldiers did not embarrass the people, but just drove them all into a courtyard and kept them to wait for sale.

In that courtyard, Ouyang Man was wearing shabby clothes, fluffy hair, and petal cream on her face, and she was mixed in the crowd with her head down, and no one noticed her abnormality.

It was only at night when everyone else was asleep that she dared to secretly shed tears, curled up in a corner of the room in fear, and bit her lip to prevent crying from making a sound.

She was scared and helpless. I miss my grandmother and mother, but I also worry about the safety of my grandfather, father, uncle, and brothers.

All the men in the family were put in prison, and it stands to reason that if the master's family is convicted, the people in the family will not be spared.

However, perhaps in order to show his benevolence, the emperor did not hold the slaves in the family accountable, which also gave her a chance to survive to a certain extent.

Although she was still young, she still knew the fact that her grandfather was more than lucky, from the occasional secret discussion of her subordinates, and from the fact that her grandmother would rather let the whole family kill herself than survive.

Just as she was struggling to survive in trepidation, she discovered the abnormality of the purple cuckoo.

Zijuan is Ouyang Haopeng's roommate, because she is beautiful and empathetic, she is deeply loved by Ouyang Haopeng.

During those few days, she noticed that Zijuan was always secretly weeping, and occasionally saw her retching a few times, and her face was also very pale.

Although she is only eight years old, she also knows a little about people, and she knows that this will be the reaction of her daughter's family if she is pregnant.

She was overjoyed and surprised to have this guess in her heart. The good thing is that the Ouyang family can still have a bloodline to continue, and the surprise is that if people know, Zijuan will be one corpse and two lives.

She was so anxious that she had no master, so she tried to get close to Zijuan. At first, Zijuan was like a frightened bird to avoid her temptation, but after she let her see her true face, she revealed the fact that she was more than a month pregnant.

One person is short and the other is long, and in order to survive, the two discussed for a long time and decided to find a father for the child. But where to find someone who is willing to be an impostor father?

Ouyang Man suddenly remembered his identity as Su Nian, and he could go to Su Nian's brother Su Xiaolin to give it a try. Although this move was a bit risky, it was also the only way to survive at that time, and Ouyang Man was determined to take a risk.

The male and female servants were locked up in two courtyards, and Ouyang Man saw Su Xiaolin when Su Nian's brother Su Xiaolin delivered food to the women's courtyard.

Su Xiaolin was temporarily requisitioned by the officers and soldiers to run errands for them, and it was arranged by the officers and soldiers to deliver meals to the maids.

Ouyang Man glanced at Su Xiaolin when he received the meal again, but the silver hairpin didn't dare to take it out.

When the officers and soldiers raided the house, all the gold and silver in the house were stolen. Su Nian's silver hairpin, Ouyang Man hid it in his sleeve, and he escaped the catastrophe.

At that time, the officers and soldiers who swept the search saw that she was wearing tattered and trembling, and her face was dirty, so they let her go without any oil and water.

Now the officers and soldiers on the side are staring at them fiercely, where does she dare to take it out?

When Su Xiaolin saw her, his body was shocked, and his face instantly turned pale. However, he still served the food to the women in an orderly manner, but the hand holding the rice spoon trembled slightly.

Later, Ouyang Man heard the news that the whole family had been beheaded. That night, she stayed awake all night, staring at dawn with blood-red eyes.

That night, she realized what it means to be disillusioned, to be loveless, and what is heart-wrenching and heartbreaking, and also made her feel a complete hatred for the court and the heavenly family in her heart.

That night was the night when she was reborn, and from that night on, Ouyang Man was really completely dead, and it was Su Nian who was alive.

She didn't think about dying, because she couldn't live up to Su Nian and her mother. Especially Su Nian, she can't let her die in vain, she has to live. No matter what difficulties are in the future, she has to live well and live for the Ouyang family.

In the days that followed, she realized that it was very easy to die, and it was really too difficult to live! (To be continued.) )
