It was late in the night, and there was no sound except for the sound of the wind blowing through the branches. Huaishanyuan fell into a boundless black silence, except for a faint lamp that silently pestled at the foot of the bed.

Through the blue and blue threaded cloud silk cover, you can see Xingzhao frowning tightly, gritting his teeth desperately, and sweating on his forehead.

In the dream, a woman wearing a bright red dragon and phoenix Chengxiang wedding dress approached, in a white light nothingness, so red, bright as a trickle of blood. The woman's face flashed, with red phoenix eyes, willow eyebrows, and a pointed chin raised high, looking arrogant and mean.

Xingzhao's heart was so stuffy that he wanted to scream but couldn't. The picture passed in a flash, replaced by a woman lying on the ground, holding a red golden hairpin in her hand, her round face was bruised and purple, looking hideous, her eyes bulging, looking straight to the zenith, and her eyelids couldn't close together.

Xingzhao tried his best to run over there, but he couldn't run to the eldest lady's side.

"Mother—" What a poignant and helpless call it was, piercing the night sky of Huaishanyuan with a sharp piercing.

Xing Zhao sat up suddenly, gasped for breath, wiped his face, and didn't know whether it was sweat or tears. Lianyu, who was sleeping on the warm couch, quickly got up, and the little jacket didn't have time to put it on, so she rushed up and opened the curtain, and saw the frightened Xingzhao, and she couldn't care so much, so she sat on the edge of the bed, patted Xingzhao's back one by one, and found that the little clothes were already soaked, so she raised her voice and called the little maid on duty at night: "Warm pot of tea, and then bring a basin of warm water!" ”

The lotus leaf who was keeping vigil outside also heard the movement, put on his shoes and hurriedly lit the candle-warm tea, and sent it in with a tray.

Lianyu served Xingzhao and drank two sips of tea, and then took a handkerchief to cut off Xingzhao, who was stunned on the bed, and let the lotus leaf go out, before gently comforting: "The girl is in a dream, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay to wake up." Let's take a sip of tea and settle down. ”

Xingzhao swallowed in a daze, his eyes slowly moved to Lianyu, looked at Lianyu's gentle and friendly face under the lamp, his heart was sour and helpless, he hugged Lianyu, buried his face in her arms, and cried silently: "I dreamed of my mother, my mother is still dead, my mother is still dead, my mother is still dead."

The last few words seemed to be low to the dust, Lianyu's nose was sour, and the girl was thinking every day, step by step. From confession, to moving to the main courtyard, to clichés. Every step was extremely accurate, and she knew that the girl was panicked and afraid, and she was by no means as calm and clear as she seemed on the surface. The road ahead is unknown, and two close relatives are involved, who can strategize without flaws.

"When Lianyu was a child, I heard the old people in the village say that dreams are all reversed, and Mrs. and you will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune and turn danger into disaster." Lianyu comforted in a dry voice.

Xingzhao was stunned for a long time before slowly nodding.

The lights in Huaishan Garden turned on and off, but the lights in the second room of the east wing were on until dawn.

He Xingxiao, who was asleep in the bed of the hibiscus flower carved Arhat, was also dreaming, and she was groggy for several days, and she repeatedly had a dream exactly the same as Xingzhao - the eldest princess of Yingyi, who came from nothingness in red, and a woman who fell to the ground and died holding a golden hairpin in her hand.

She didn't understand what it meant, she hadn't seen the dead woman's face clearly until tonight, it was the appearance of the eldest lady Fang!

He Xingxiao woke up screaming, with a slightly cold tea in his mouth, but he was groping in his heart. That day, He Xingzhao moved the yard, it was the first time she had this dream, she was so frightened that she had no strength, and the maid next to her said that she was going to give a gift according to the routine, and she ghostly took off the bracelet on her wrist that should be given by the eldest princess.

The eldest princess of Yingyi, who was wearing a wedding dress, and the eldest lady who fell to the ground and died, what did this dream want to tell her?

I had a headache for a while, and I fainted in Aunt Wan's arms.

The two little ladies had the same dream, and they both ignored the extremely important point in the dream - the lower abdomen covered by the eldest princess Yingyi's red wedding dress was slightly bulging.

*****************************************************************

Early the next morning, Xingzhao went to the main hall full of worries, the eldest lady had already freshened up, He Yan was also there, and was instructing Mr. Bai: "Take the post and ask Zhang Yuan to judge, please come to him." ”

Xingzhao and Mr. Bai staggered by, and Mr. Bai saluted her and hurried out. Xingzhao was slightly stunned, entered the room and saluted, sat down beside the eldest lady and asked, "Who is not comfortable?" I also bothered Zhang Yuan to come to see the disease. ”

Aunt Liu, the biological mother who was setting up the cloth bowl, raised her head to the east and said, "Ming'er will be Chinese New Year's Eve." The six girls are not well yet, and as soon as the yard opens, they cry and beg, how unlucky it is for the New Year."

When He Yan heard this, he frowned, a little unhappy: "What to say in front of the girl!" ”

Aunt Liu is in her thirties, she is the eldest lady's wedding maid, and she has always been a heart to the eldest lady, and after mentioning her aunt when she gave birth, she only had the eldest lady in her eyes.

The eldest lady treats people softly, and she is even more protective of the maid who has been with her for decades, playing a round field: "Today, the marquis is resting, but it's a pity that Mr. Chang doesn't give Brother Jing a child to go to school, otherwise we can go to greet Mrs. Tai as a family." ”

He Yan glanced at the eldest lady, she didn't count Aunt Wan and Xingxiao in her words, she has not grown at all after so many years of husband and wife. After enduring it, he remembered another matter, so he simply didn't bother here, and ordered in a deep voice: "Let's eat." ”

He Yan, the eldest lady, and Xingzhao were serious masters, so they sat around the black lacquered elm round table for dinner, and Aunt Liu stood behind the eldest lady to distribute vegetables. He Yan pays attention to the Confucian style, and he does not eat or sleep, so he can only hear the sound of porcelain colliding. Xingzhao only sandwiched a few dishes in front of him, looking at He Yan's speed, while drinking a small half bowl of red dates and barley porridge, He Yan put the chopsticks, and Xingzhao and the eldest lady also put the chopsticks.

went to Rongshoutang, the second lady looked shining, and arrived early with Xingming. Seeing the big room come in, Second Master He smiled and went to greet He Yan. When the second lady saw Xingzhao, she smiled implicitly and bowed her head, but Xingming was very excited. Xingzhao smiled back at her.

After greeting An and sitting down, Mrs. Tai instructed the eldest lady a few words, "You can't be lazy when you send New Year's gifts to the next few families", "Remember to add a few radishes, small celery and other vegetables to Ming'er's Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet" and asked: "Did you send the post of the third room?" The eldest lady nodded again and again and said, "It's sent, and Ming'er will come to the third room." ”

Mrs. Tai was relieved, this daughter-in-law had to ask and bang all the time, so that she would not get out of the basket. Then he turned his head and instructed the others: "Ming'er will set off fireworks on Chinese New Year's Eve, and they will be far away from Bibo Lake." The banquet in the palace is about to be rewarded on the fifth day of the new year, and the marquis and the second master of Ming'er remember to come back early, and they are counting on you to bring the little Langjun. ”

Saying this, Mrs. Tai's eyes fixed on He Yan for a long time before moving to the second master.

The big guys all got up and responded, He Yan and He Erye went to the outer courtyard, and the eldest lady and the second lady accompanied Mrs. Tai to talk. Xingzhao and the two sisters sat affectionately on the couch in the northwest corner to do needlework, and from time to time made up a few interesting sentences.

Mrs. Tai remembered Xingxiao's illness: "Sister Xiao'er's illness is not well yet?" Then can't you come out to blow the wind yet? ”

The eldest lady was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't answer: "Yes." Today, as soon as the lock is opened, I will beg for it, and I want to ask Zhang Yuan to come and take a look. said that it was a little bad last night, and the little lady was sweating. ”

Mrs. Tai didn't think so, and Zhang Yuan came to see the illness in front of her, and prescribed prescriptions to replenish qi and calm the nerves, indicating that He Xingxiao was not a big deal at all, and this kind of behavior caught up with the New Year's Festival, which was really unlucky. Nodding slightly, he turned the conversation to Xingzhao's new house.

While Rong Shou Tang was talking, a little maid came to communicate: "The car of the eldest princess of Yingyi has arrived at the door, saying that she is here to ask about the New Year's gift of Lin'an Hou Mansion." ”
