Chapter 28: The Distance Between Nightmare and Reality
Fortunately, Qi Miao had made preparations that her mother didn't believe in before.
After a little groaning, an excuse came to mind.
I don't dare to guarantee that my mother will be completely convinced, and I will bluff on the spur of the moment.
complained that her concentration was not strong enough, otherwise how could she lose her temper and make her mother worry.
Qi Miao said with a sad face, "Mother, it's not that I deliberately concealed it, but you won't believe it if you say it, so it's better not to say it." ”
"Silly boy, you haven't said it yet, why do you know that your mother doesn't believe you?" When Shen saw that his daughter was worried, his heart softened.
"Because even I can't believe it, how can you believe it?" Qi Miao shook her head.
The tone was extremely helpless.
Shen was a little regretful about asking about it, but now he was curious.
What is the reason why Miao'er reacts so violently?
Her tone was softer and asked, "Miao'er, tell your mother what is going on, otherwise your mother will have trouble sleeping." ”
Qi Miao stared at her big dark eyes, looked at her mother, bit her lip, and said in a low voice, "I...... I once dreamed of Mrs. Xu. ”
"Did you dream of Mrs. Xu? Have you met Mrs. Xu before? Shen was surprised.
She herself had only been friends with the Lin family for four or five years, and Miao'er only came back, so it stands to reason that she didn't know the Lin family.
And the Lin family doesn't seem to have been to Yanguan, so it is very unlikely that he knows Miao'er.
Since you don't know each other, how can you dream of the Lin family?
"I said my mother wouldn't believe it." Qi Miao sighed.
She whispered, "I had never met Mrs. Xu before today, and I didn't think there was anything in the dreams related to her before, dreams were originally strange, and a few more strangers were nothing."
When I saw Mrs. Xu in the Li Mansion today, I thought I was dreaming again, but I didn't expect that there was really Mrs. Xu in reality, which really scared me. ”
Qi Miao looked up at her mother and asked, "Mother, what do you say is going on?" Especially when I think about what happened in my dreams, I am even more afraid. ”
The little face was full of confusion and confusion.
The clear black eyes were now covered with a thin layer of mist.
"Miao'er, tell your mother, what did you dream about? Why are you afraid? Shen was so distressed that he pulled up, hugged his daughter tightly, and gave her daughter silent comfort.
Although Shen thought it was bizarre and weird, he didn't think it was impossible.
When she was a child, she had heard her father's subordinates say something like this, and that things in her dreams would actually happen.
Shen believes that her daughter will not lie to herself, she must have really dreamed of the Lin family, otherwise there are so many people present today, why didn't she say that she dreamed of others, but it was the Lin family?
What she is most concerned about at the moment is what Qi Miao dreamed about and why she was afraid.
Qi Miao saw that the atmosphere was almost rendered, so she shrunk her shoulders, and said in a trembling voice, "In my dream, Mrs. Xu abused me with all kinds of vicious tricks and harmed me......
I said that I would tell the others about her evil deeds, and she smiled proudly and said that she was a bodhisattva, and no one believed me, so I gave up my mind and accepted my fate, and continued to insult and torture me.
In addition to Mrs. Xu, there was a middle-aged man and a young man who helped her bully me, and finally I was broken by them and gouged out my eyes......"
I wanted to use this incident to keep my mother away from the Lin family, but who knew that as she spoke, she remembered all the things in her previous life, and Qi Miao's compassion came from her heart.
Tears poured out, and I couldn't stop it.
The cry was sad to the bone.
"Don't cry, be good...... Silly child, it's just a dream, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, no one can bully you like this with your mother, your mother will be the first to spare them, don't be afraid......" Shen's eyes were also red, and her daughter's crying broke her heart.
Regardless of whether her daughter is telling a dream or the truth, she can't tolerate her daughter being hurt like this.
There was inexplicable hostility towards the Lin family.
If she didn't believe it at all, she believes it now.
If Miao'er was lying, how could she cry so sadly?
Under the comfort of her mother, Qi Miao's mood gradually stabilized.
She hadn't expected such a violent reaction.
But it also makes it easier for the mother to believe what she says.
Seeing that Qi Miao's mood had calmed down, Shen comforted him softly, "Miao'er, don't think too much, Mrs. Xu is an extremely gentle and kind-hearted person, and she won't bully you."
Besides, with your mother, it's not so easy for others to bully you, you know? ”
She didn't want Qi Miao to have a psychological shadow, so she persuaded her like this.
Qi Miao nodded obediently, "Mother, the dream I know may be fake, but as soon as I saw Mrs. Xu, I couldn't control my fear, especially the mole in the center of her eyebrows, I panicked when I looked at it."
I'm worried that the dream will come true, and in the future we will stay away from her, away from everyone in her house, okay? ”
She leaned into her mother's arms, her hands gripping her clothes tightly.
Fear was written on the little face.
Lin and Xu's father are kind and benevolent, and they are famous benevolent people in the capital, and everyone praises them.
If it weren't for personal experience, who would have believed that the Xu family would be so hypocritical, despicable, and vicious......
All the vicious words in the world are used, and she thinks they are not enough to describe what the Xu family has done.
Although he married her as his wife, the Lin family looked down on her from the bottom of his heart and didn't like her.
In order to achieve an ulterior purpose, Lin always pretended to love her very much in front of people, and did not harm her behind her back.
Since the day she married Xu Che, the Lin family would send a bowl of soup and medicine every day, saying that she would replenish her body.
Because she believed in the Xu family too much, she didn't have any doubts, and really drank it as a tonic.
It wasn't until a few months later that she accidentally learned that the so-called tonic was Shunzi Soup.
The Lin family thinks that she is not worthy of giving birth to the heirs of the Xu family, which coincides with Xu Che.
She made a fuss with Xu Che.
Xu Che comforted her and went to find the Lin family.
He should have said that she had lost her fertility forever, and Lin's bowl of decoction was not sent again.
Because it's no longer needed.
Her mother had a very good impression of the Xu family, and she was even more satisfied with her and Xu Che's family affairs, and was proud of it.
So from this moment on, she had to keep reminding her mother that the Lin family was trying to harm her in her dreams.
In addition to the Lin family, there are two men, an old man and a young man, which are metaphors for Xu's father and Xu Che.
According to her mother's love for her, after a long time, she will naturally have hatred for the Xu family.
Only if the mother hates the Xu family, she will not agree to the Xu family's family affairs.
When she first met Xu Che, she was attracted by his outstanding appearance, but she was also a little self-aware, knowing that she was not worthy of him, and she didn't think too much about it.
Who would have thought that the Xu family would come to the door to propose marriage two months later.
She had no other thoughts than ecstasy.
She and her mother didn't know that the Xu family was actually hell.
Shen nodded seriously, "Don't be afraid, Miao'er, we won't see the Xu family in the future, stay away from them." ”
"Mother, you're so nice." Qi Miao hugged her mother tighter, and her voice was so soft that it seemed to turn into water.
Shen smiled lightly, not calm in his heart.
She also worries that dreams will become reality.
In the future, I will stay away from the Xu family and be more wary of the Lin family.
I also made an appointment with Mrs. Li and the Lin family to go to Lingshan Temple to enjoy the maple leaves, and then I had to think of an excuse to push it.
It's always a good idea to be careful, anyway.
Originally, I wanted to talk to Qi Miao about Bai Lian's shame by the ladies, but when she saw that she was depressed, she didn't say anything and asked her to close her eyes and rest.
By the time the carriage stopped in front of the Marquis of Anning's Mansion, Qi Miao had already regained her usual smile.
It's just that the eyes are still slightly red.
After entering the second gate, Qi Miao said to Shen, "Mother, my brother is very tired from studying, let's send him some pastries from Wuxiangzhai." ”
"Okay, Miao'er, you're so good." Shen smiled and nodded.
It seems that Miao'er has put the nightmare behind for the time being.
That's fine.
Qi Miao smiled slightly, took her mother's arm, and walked in the direction of Jun Lanxuan.
She didn't really want to give food to Qi Zhan.
I remember that in the past, as long as my mother left the house, or he had free time, he would secretly go to play with Bai Liansi, and abandon his studies.
Mother thought he was studying seriously, even if he didn't see him in the study occasionally, Jun Lanxuan's subordinates would say that he was tired from reading and had just gone out to breathe.
His mother trusted him so much that she never doubted what people said.
She knew the truth, because she hated him so much, that she wished he didn't have to study hard, and never exposed him.
And he also obeyed her wishes, and his learning was a mess, and he couldn't even pass the exam, let alone others.
His father, who was the first in the palace examination, became a laughing stock in the eyes of others.
While his father was disappointed in him, he began to snub and alienate him, and he doted on Bai Lian, who was known as a talented woman.
My mother has quarreled with my father in private for this reason, and I don't know how many tears she shed.
In her previous life, she was secretly happy about this, but now she thinks that she is too confused.
No matter how bad Qi Zhan is, he has no conscience, but he is his mother's son after all.
His unbearableness hurt his mother's heart and damaged his mother's face.
Not being able to make her mother sad anymore is her greatest wish in this life.
Qi Miao and her mother laughed and came to Jun Lanxuan.
