Chapter 5 Reluctance
This decoction has the effect of calming the nerves, and after eating it for a short time, Xie Roujia became sleepy, watching her eyelids fight and gradually become immobile, Mrs. Xie let go of the little hand in her hand.
Xie Roujia opened her eyes suddenly.
"Mother." She shouted in panic, and the man was about to sit up.
Mrs. Xie hurriedly held her hand again, and made two sounds.
"Mother is here, here." She said softly, reaching out and tapping Xie Roujia's nose, "Sleep, just get some sleep." ”
Xie Roujia lay down and closed her eyes with peace of mind.
Twilight gradually filled the room, and the nurse carefully looked at it.
"Sleepy." She whispered.
Mrs. Xie, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looked at Xie Roujia in the bed again, because she had taken the medicine, her little face was flushed from sleep, and her breathing was steady, so she slowly pulled her hand out.
Xie Roujia's hand moved slightly, and she quieted down.
Mrs. Xie and the nurse both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lady, rest and rest." The nurse said in a low voice, helping Mrs. Xie to walk away.
The little girls lowered the curtain lightly.
Xie Roujia slowly opened her eyes, looked inside the dim tent, and listened to the sound of small movements and conversations coming from outside the tent.
“…… What did the doctor say? ”
This is the mother asking, her voice full of worry.
"It's also frightened." The nurse's voice was a little nervous.
The sound of footsteps came heavily, accompanied by the sound of some chaotic girls stopping.
"Miss, Miss, don't shout, don't shout."
"Mother, mother."
It's my sister, and my sister is here too.
Xie Roujia was a little nervous, her hand couldn't help but clench the corners of the quilt, and she listened to the sound of a little wheezing outside, and instantly lowered it again.
"Mother, how is Jiajia?"
The voice of the girl who is deliberately suppressed must be listened carefully to hear.
"It's okay, it's okay, I took my medicine and slept."
"I'll go see her..."
Xie Roujia hurriedly closed her eyes, but there was no footsteps coming forward.
“…… My sister is easy to put to sleep, and when you come to see her tomorrow, you can sleep well quickly. ”
"Okay, mother, I know, mother, you're tired too, I'll rub your shoulders."
"No need, Megumi is tired too, right?"
"Yes, yes, mother, I've been writing for a long time today, and my arms are sore."
"How can writing be so tiring, don't be squeamish."
"Mother, my sister can be squeamish, I can not go to school if I fall, I was sick and vomited last time, and my mother still let me go to school..."
"Can you be like your sister? Let's go, recite to me the scriptures I learned today. ”
The girls in the courtyard swayed and swayed their voices.
Xie Roujia seemed to be able to see a little girl frowning her face and reluctantly, those memories that were sealed before the age of twelve came back at this time, the days before the age of twelve, just like what I see now, warm and smart, until my sister died, the entire Xie family was like a mountain shade that had been sucked away from the sun, forever full of cold, no smile and no laughter.
Sister.
Xie Roujia slowly shrank under the quilt, covering her face and sobbing.
It turns out that it's good to be dead, it's good.
It's just that what happened to my father? How is the Xie family? And her Lan'er.
The sound of small footsteps sounded in the room, and the tent was lifted.
"Second Miss, Second Miss, what's wrong with you?" The nurse asked anxiously.
With her inquiry, more girls poured in from outside.
"Why are you crying again?"
Everyone asked anxiously, some people wanted to pull down her quilt, and some people wanted to persuade her.
"I want my mother and sister." Xie Roujia cried as she grabbed the quilt and covered her head.
The people in the room looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
"Second Miss, the eldest lady has been with you for a long time, and you are tired, can you take a rest?"
"Second Miss, the eldest lady is asking the eldest lady her homework."
"Second Miss, can you invite them later?"
Everyone said.
Fooling ghosts, Xie Roujia doesn't believe this, everyone is a ghost, and no one can fool anyone.
"No, no." She hid under the covers, just crying and repeating.
"What can I do? Do you want to invite the eldest lady again? A girl said helplessly.
"Nope." The nurse flatly refused, "I've already made a fuss in the afternoon, and it's not okay to do this again." ”
"Yes, what's wrong with Second Miss? It's not like I've been sick before, but I've never been so unreasonable. The girls said anxiously and puzzled.
Yes, in the past, the second lady listened to whatever she said, although sometimes she was coquettish, but when it came to the eldest lady and the eldest lady, she was very obedient, and it was the first time they encountered such a second lady, and they were really helpless.
"I know." A voice shouted.
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw the little girl standing at the door.
"Jiangling!" The nurse glared and raised her eyebrows to look outside, "Who is watching her?" Why did you let her run out again? ”
The others were also startled and panicked to catch Jiangling.
This bold girl has already gone to make trouble with the eldest lady once, Mu Xiang locked her up and waited for punishment, but she didn't expect to run out again, this girl should not run to make trouble with the eldest lady and the eldest lady again.
People inside and outside rushed to Jiangling, but Jiangling jumped in flexibly.
"Second Miss, Second Miss, are you afraid? If you're afraid, Jiangling will accompany you first, okay? She said loudly into the room, "When the eldest lady and eldest lady are done, I will invite them again, okay?" ”
Xie Roujia's crying stopped, revealing half of her face from the quilt, and the lamp had been lit in the room, shining on Jiang Ling, who was looking at a group of girls.
Second Miss, don't be afraid, Jiangling will accompany you, Jiangling will always accompany you.
When her sister had an accident, all the girls were dispersed, and she was bold enough to run out and kneel beside her father and mother and kowtow and beg.
"Jiang Ling is not afraid of death, Jiang Ling just wants to accompany Miss, Jiang Ling is afraid of the second Miss is afraid."
So many people are desperate to face their fate, as the descendants of the Xie family, they will not and dare not disobey their masters, only Jiang Ling dares to stand up and dare to say no.
For so many years, she has been supporting her and accompanying her.
"Second Miss, you can't think about it, if you die, it's the biggest sin."
"Second Miss, if you want to live, you must live, no matter how painful and sad you are, you must live."
But in the end, they still didn't live.
Xie Roujia's tears flowed down, the quilt was lifted, and she stretched out her hand to Jiang Ling.
"JMC." She cried.
…………………………………….
The nurse waved her hand, and the girls in the room withdrew, and she herself stepped out and looked back again.
Jiang Ling sat on the edge of the bed, tilting her head and talking to Xie Roujia, who was half-lying on the bed.
The second lady, who couldn't be coaxed to cry, was very quiet at this time, and showed a hint of a smile.
"When did this Jiangling get into the eyes of the second lady?" She whispered in confusion.
"This Jiangling is dangling in front of the second lady every day, scrambling to show her face, and now it can be regarded as a wish fulfillment." Mu Xiang chuckled in a low voice, "It looks like a stupid and bold person, but it's also a smart one." ”
The nurse nodded, and looked inside again.
"It's nothing to please the second miss, it's just that some people's so-called good will hurt the second miss." She whispered, "Guard this place, no matter what, you can't let Jiangling run out and mess around again." ”
Mu Xiang nodded.
"This Jiangling should be handed over to the eldest lady." She whispered again, and stepped inside.
The door was closed, and the room was quiet.
Xie Roujia shifted her body and sat up for a few minutes.
"So, you don't remember what happened before?" She asked.
"Before?" JMC was a little puzzled.
"Before you die." Xie Roujia said, frowning slightly.
It seems that everyone has forgotten what happened after her sister's death, but only before her sister's accident.
Jiang Ling's eyes widened, as if he didn't know what to say.
"Were you still alive when I died? Did they arrest you or just kill you? Xie Roujia then asked.
Jiang Ling looked at her blankly, and her eyes suddenly lit up, with a little suddenness.
"Oh, I see, Second Miss, you're dreaming." She said, clapping her hands, "Is it a dream that we're all dead?" ”
Dream?
This time it was Xie Roujia's turn to be stunned.
"It's a dream, it's all true." She said, sitting up, "I was strangled by them." ”
Jiang Ling sighed and sat up straight.
"What about me?" She asked, with some curiosity, "How did I die?" ”
"How do I know?" Xie Roujia was a little frustrated, "I didn't even see you, you must have been arrested by them first, I knew I wouldn't let you paint for me, just the two of us together." ”
Jiang Ling nodded.
"Yes, yes, Second Miss, you really shouldn't let me leave, if we were together, we would definitely not be killed so lightly." She said.
That's not necessarily, the king of Zhenbei is dead, and the palace of Zhenbei is Zhou Chengzhen's world.
No, even if the king of Zhenbei is immortal, that is also Zhou Chengzhen's world.
The son of the king of Zhenbei died early, leaving only Zhou Chengzhen's grandson, and the emperor took pity on him and named him the son of the dynasty and inherited the prince.
Because it is the only bloodline continuation of the Zhenbei Palace, the emperor took pity on him and did not let him follow the king of Zhenbei to the border, deliberately stayed in the capital, was pampered since he was a child, and the lackeys fought cockfights and sleeps in the willows and willows, but he is a prodigal son, and he has not married until he is twenty, and it is easy to get married, and he also did something in the capital that deceived and lured people's concubines to be broken and killed the master, and the emperor couldn't cover it, so he had to drive him back, and his father-in-law's family didn't let his wife come back with him because he was angry.
This kind of rude, shameless and ruthless person can't do anything, otherwise he wouldn't have been rude to himself at the beginning, he was bumped into by someone, provoked such gossip, and finally slandered her as provoking him.
Xie Roujia's face turned white, and she was both aggrieved and hateful.
"Okay, miss, it's okay now, anyway, we're all fine, don't think about it." Jiang Ling looked at her face and red eye circles, and hurriedly said, "You haven't eaten at night, are you hungry?" I saw that the kitchen made pepper chicken, do you want to eat it? ”
Sichuan pepper chicken?
Xie Roujia's eyes couldn't help but light up.
This is the dish she has loved to eat since she was a child, and after marrying into the Zhenbei Palace, Jiangling also tried to make it in the kitchen, but maybe the peppercorns and chickens are not from her hometown, and the taste is always not the same.
I haven't eaten it in over two years.
Xie Roujia couldn't help but nodded.
Jiang Ling stood up happily.
"Someone, someone, someone." She shouted, "Miss wants to eat pepper chicken." ”
