On the winter solstice, halfway through the hour, the sky is just dawning, and the people of Yunfu are already busy.

Yun Xiu suddenly opened her eyes, gasping for breath, beads of sweat kept rolling down her forehead, she looked at her green and white hands and the cherry powder gauze tent in the bed, stunned for a long time, until the voice of the spring orchid warbler sounded next to the bed and woke up like a dream.

"Eighth girl, today is a long festival, you can't snooze, the old lady's side of the house is up, saying that after eating the morning food, she will go to Daming Temple to worship, and she can't delay." Chunlan Mari pulled up the curtain, brought rinses tea again, and urged Yun Xiu to get up, "In addition, the old man sent a letter back from Yanjing last night, saying that he had to come back from Yu Yue, and it is estimated that the letter is already on the old lady's side." ”

Yun Xiu stared at the beautiful smiling face in front of her, and couldn't figure it out, the personal girl who was like a sister was the executioner who pushed her into the water.

In a trance, the suffocating feeling of drowning in the previous life came to my heart, as if a thousand needles had been pierced.

"Eight girls, eight girls?" Chunlan was stared at and called twice, "The slave maid saw that you just woke up and your face was not very good, is it uncomfortable to get up too early?" ”

"I'm fine." Yun Xiu's heart was cold, and his voice was even colder.

Chunlan flattered while serving: "Girl, I just went to the kitchen to pick up the food box, the mother-in-law in the kitchen is cutting fennel, saying that she wants to wrap fennel-stuffed dumplings, and also said that there is a custom of eating dumplings on the winter solstice in the north. ”

When it comes to fennel-stuffed dumplings, Yun Xiu remembered that her former husband Jun Xie Zongren was born in the north and liked to eat fennel dumplings the most, and this winter solstice was the first time she and Xie Zongren met, and they were sixteen.

A year later, she begged her father to find Xie Zongren an errand in Yanjing, and half a year later, Xie Zongren married her and took her to Beijing.

I'm really blind...... Yun Xiu thought self-deprecatingly, she waited for him for a year and a half to pave the way for his career, but in the end she didn't agree with him taking a concubine, but in exchange for a letter of resignation.

If it weren't for being taken back to her parents' house, Chunlan wouldn't have gotten off her phone.

Yun Xiu looked at the beautiful appearance in the mirror, pulled off the coral bead hairpin on his head, and said sharply: "Daming Temple has always been famous for Qing cultivation, grandmother believes in Buddhism, and she is also used to eating fasting and simplicity. ”

Chunlan was stunned for a moment, revealing a difficult look: "Eight girls, this body is too plain, not to mention how many rich and famous families in Yangzhou will gather in Daming Temple today, if you meet those salt merchants who know the master, say that the girl is dressed too plainly, but you have to wipe the face of the old man and the old lady." ”

As soon as the words fell, she found Yun Xiu looking at her from the mirror with a half-smile without smiling.

Chunlan hurriedly knelt down and admitted her mistake: "Girl, it's the slave and the maid who have trespassed, the slave and the maid shouldn't beak the old man and the old lady, it's all up to the girl to beat and scold, and don't tell the old lady." ”

She was ready to be beaten and scolded, and waited for a while but nothing happened.

However, when Yun Xiu changed his clothes, he said quietly: "Chunlan, you are a heart-to-heart, when I come back from Daming Temple, I will talk to my grandmother and transfer you to my father's yard to do things. ”

After speaking, she put on her cloak and didn't turn her head to open the curtain and go out, as if she couldn't hear Chunlan's pleading cry in the house.

On the way, Yun Xiu only took Chun Tao out.

Chun Tao is a solid eye, and she can't figure out why her little master lost her temper in the morning, so she can only persuade in a low voice: "Eighth girl, Chunlan is also thinking about you, I got up early in the morning and went to the kitchen to wait for the food box, I was afraid of delaying the time to go out, the slave maid was not as careful as her, and it was okay to do some rough chores, but I really couldn't cope with it." ”

Yun Xiu closed his eyes to recuperate, but he listened to the words, and said slowly: "Chun Tao, your ability can be practiced, and your temperament can be sharpened, but if you have bad conduct and too big an idea, my small courtyard can't accommodate it." ”

She didn't believe it, in her previous life, Chunlan would kill for no reason, not to be mistaken, before she got married, Chunlan didn't want to be a dowry girl, didn't she hate her master and take her love?

Chun Tao is sincere, but not stupid, hearing the meaning that Chunlan can't stay, she didn't say more, and silently felt that the eighth girl was getting better from her illness, which was different from before.
