In the early morning, the morning light is four, the fog is deep and the dew is heavy, the girl who woke up as early as Mao, half leaning on the bed and looking at the dripping green outside the window, but her heart is a little annoyed, even if she is tired, but the thunder that wakes up before the time is not the same, makes her face depressed.

Knock knock...

Xu Youshan closed her eyes, and when she opened her eyes, she said shyly: "Come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and it was Mother Liu who came in, "Second Miss, Mother Wu asks to see you." ”

The corners of Xu Youshan's mouth hooked slightly, and there was a hint of mockery, "Then trouble Mother Liu to let her in." ”

"Yes."

After a while, Xu Youshan was still lazily leaning on the bed, but Wu Lin walked in without any abnormalities except for his extremely pale face and appeared weak, standing five steps away from Xu Youshan, bending his knees and kneeling heavily on the ground.

Xu Youshan was still lazy, looking at Wu Lin's and not speaking, Wu Lin's also pursed his lips and didn't say a word.

Time passed slowly, the sun also rose, Xu Youshan changed a few postures on the soft big bed, looking out of the window for a while, looking at Wu Linshi for a while, and closing his eyes for a while to rest, while Wu Lin kept his head down and knelt on the ground without saying a word, and the cold sweat on his forehead fell drop by drop.........

"Come and sign this death deed!"

"Yes."

Xufu, early autumn museum, late at night.

"Madam, the lights have been turned off over there in the Zhengyan Pavilion." Liu Ru said to Pei Shi, who was reclining on the soft couch and closing his eyes to recuperate.

"Hmm."

"Madam..."Liu Ru hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Why did you settle the second young lady in the Zhengyan Pavilion?" It's too close to the eldest lady's Weizhou Courtyard, and the eldest lady is afraid that she will be unhappy. ”

Pei Shi thought of his little ancestor, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I don't know Rong'er's stinky temper yet, but this is what the old lady ordered, and it can only be like this." ”

"Old lady?" Not only Liu Ru, but even Liu Yin and Liu Wu on the side have seen it.

The reason why Xu Youshan was able to come back was rumored throughout the Xu Mansion was because the old lady was sick, but although Liu Ru, the people around Pei's family, knew that this was definitely not a real reason, but they didn't expect that it was the old lady's order.

"Hmm." Pei Shi opened his eyes at Liu Ru, Liu Yin and Liu Fu at this time, and said softly: "Now I will also remind you, facing the second lady, the number of courtesies that should be there is no less." ”

Liu Ru's heart tightened, and he hurriedly bowed down.

Pei Shi closed his eyes again and waved his hand, and the three of Liu Ru gently retreated, leaving the catkins who were keeping vigil today outside, while Liu Ru and Liu Yin closed the door and instructed the mother-in-law and maids outside the house to watch the night before returning to the room.

On the way, Liu Yin wanted to speak to Liu Ru several times and stopped, and Liu Ru had already found out, "What's wrong?" ”

"Liu Yue sent someone to say just now, the master is resting today... Aunt Mo is there. ”

Liu Ru's expression was cold, and finally sighed: "Forget it, in the future, if Madam doesn't ask about these things, don't talk about it anymore." ”

Liu Yin, whose face was not very good, lowered his eyes and nodded slightly.

The next day, the sky is still cloudy, Xu's house is already mixed with people, today is the day when Nanxiang Gong Xu Rong and a few little masters return to the house, Pei's also got up early to prepare, no one was idle, except for two places - Qinhua Hall, Zheng Yan Pavilion.

Zheng Yan Pavilion

Zheng Yan Pavilion is a small courtyard that occupies a small area in Xufu, the main building is an attic built on a jade platform about six feet high, the long corridor under the attic is tortuous, the stone road is long, the front yard is dominated by peach trees and pomegranate trees, and several pavilions are planted with summer flowers around the small pavilions. Go around to the back of the main building, is the backyard, the backyard is only planted with a few large apricot blossom trees, accompanied by a small building with jade as the pavilion, purple flowers spread all over the grass, and a little more past, is more than a dozen pineapple wooden houses, small and delicate.

These pineapple wooden houses are the residences of the maids and wives of the Zheng Yan Pavilion, among which the branches of an apricot tree happen to be separated from the rest of the wooden houses in one of the three huts, Wu Lin sat on the ground in a daze, his face was red and white, all of them were covered with tears, and his lips were white and bloodless.

She sat like that, sat all night, maintained the same position, motionless, and felt like ...... Dead as well.

"Knock Knock"

“……”

"Knock Knock"

“……”

"Mother Wu, are you there? The second lady is looking for you! ”

"......" A loud noise sounded in the house, startling the little maid who came to call the door, and after a while, the door was opened, and it was the mother Wu she saw yesterday who appeared in front of the little maid.

It's just that in addition to the blue-black under Wu Lin's eyes, which can't be covered no matter how much he hides.

"Chu Dai, Second Miss looking for me?" Wu Lin's voice was slightly hoarse.

Because Xu Youshan only brought her nominal nurse Wu Lin this time, and returned home with Uncle Wu, yesterday Pei pointed out a little maid to Xu Youshan, which was Chu Dai.

"Yes, Mother Wu." Chu Dai replied.

Wu Lin looked up at the sky and said, "Then let's go quickly!" ”

The two walked towards the attic, and after entering the room, Chu Dai stopped downstairs, and Wu Lin climbed to the second floor alone.

Ruthlessly poking the already scarred wound in his palm, Wu Lin steadied his voice and saluted respectfully: "Second Miss." ”

Xu Youshan turned around, quietly looked at Wu Lin's who lowered his head, and said for a while: "Mother Wu is polite, get up quickly." ”

"Yes, Second Miss." Wu Lin slowly straightened up.

"Mother Wu, it's almost time now, you have to hurry up and prepare to go to the Early Autumn Pavilion!"

Wu Lin paused and said, "Second Miss, forgive the old slave for talking too much, the old lady will return home today, Madame must be busy there, let's go later, it will be better." ”

After Wu Lin finished speaking, Xu Youshan quieted down suddenly, and the room was suddenly a little depressed, but Xu Youshan and Wu Lin had no different colors on their faces.

Xu Youshan's hand behind her back, shook and put it, put it and shook it, and after a while, the corners of her mouth curved, "Okay, just according to Mother Wu's words." ”

Call......... I don't know who it was, but I let out a long breath.

Akado

Qinhua, Qinhua. - He Bi Xuan, Tang Di's Hua.

Qinhua, Qinhua. ——What a peach, Hua is like a peach and plum!

At the beginning, Qinhuatang was not actually called this name, it was given this name by the head of the Tai Hospital, the head of the Tai Hospital, who had diagnosed Mrs. Qi's pulse many years ago, and moved from Taixi Garden to recuperate here on the grounds of frailty and illness.

At the beginning, the courtyard was not planted with phoenix trees, they were all planted with phoenix trees after Mrs. Qi lived in them, and ordered people to cut down all the original Xiangfei bamboos, so that they were relocated and planted with phoenix trees.

The phoenix tail is forested, and its flowers are like fire. It is as bright as it opens, and it is withering and crying blood.

At this time, in the most central room of the upper three rooms, which was surrounded by phoenix wood, although the sky was already bright, no matter who walked by outside the hall, no matter who walked by, it was still quiet, trying not to make a little extra sound.

"Old lady, how about wearing this today?"

Inside the house, Mama Lu held a gold-purple multicolored embroidered trimmed flower gown, and asked Mrs. Qi, who was sitting in front of the mutton fat jade makeup mirror.

Old Madam Qi didn't turn her head, glanced at the clothes through the makeup mirror, and smiled: "You...... Go get another one, it's not a big day. ”

Mama Lu's hand holding the clothes stiffened.
