It was already dawn, and Su Yifang sat in front of the makeup mirror in a daze. Yesterday night, I was caught in the wind, and my head jumped and hurt in the morning, so I went to sleep again after taking leave from the old lady, and I slept until near noon.

Su Yi sat there and yawned at the good spring light outside the window.

Bi Zhen, who gave her grate hair and makeup, saw it and said helplessly: "How sleepy is my sister?" The spring outside is bright, nested in the house, and the spring is empty! ”

Su Yi yawned again: "What aunt and uncle?" ”

Bijin sighed: "Winter is over, and snakes don't hibernate anymore." ”

"People have spring difficulties, and they also have sickness." Su Yi's words are chiseled.

"I know what is the sleepiness of spring?"

"I'm sick and need to rest."

The combed bun was full of energy, but it was a pity that it hung on Su Yi's head, and it suddenly languished together.

Su Yi's body swayed, and then fell on the bed again. Bijin sighed and hurriedly pulled: "My sister! It's all bustling ahead, so you're sleeping here! ”

Su Yi asked in a daze: "Why is it so busy ahead?" ”

"The fourth sister is returning to Ning, the girl is going to pay a visit?"

Su Yi pondered for a while: "Fourth sister? No, she, when Yi Niangniang was provincial, didn't she come back? ”

Bi Jin took the opportunity to drag the person out of bed and put on her clothes: "The beasts at home are eyeing each other, and they are not around, how can you rest assured?" ”

Su Yi nodded: "Well, yes, as soon as the fourth sister leaves, Aunt Jin will be alone, but the third lady has been busy recently, and when she is done, she may have time to toss people." ”

Bi Jin shook his head: "I heard that Sister Rui has caused chickens and dogs to jump in the third lady's courtyard recently, and the third master refuses to go often, but he is busy and has no luck in getting through the room, so he rests at the two aunts." This Aunt Cui has someone to support and a son, what does Aunt Jin have? The only daughter is also ......"

A shadow suddenly appeared on the door curtain, and Su Yi hurriedly raised his finger to signal Bi Zhen to silence. Someone outside the door was blessed and said, "The slave and maid ask for peace for the seventh sister, I don't know how to disturb it, is it convenient?" ”

Su Yi responded, and it was a very raw face who came in, how much guard did she have in her heart: "This sister looks at the face, but she can't know the way to go to the wrong yard?" ”

"How could it be! The slave maid Miaoyin, who was originally from the old lady's courtyard, followed the old lady for many years before giving the fourth sister as a dowry, how could she remember the middle road of Hanfu Fuzhong? The slave maid said that she was here to find the seventh sister, so why did she come here in the wrong yard? ”

Su Yi nodded: "So, it was the fourth sister who asked you to come?" ”

Miao Yin bowed her head: "My wife thought that my sister would avoid many people, and she couldn't push her head away, so she prepared something early and asked the slave to send it." She handed the food box in her hand and gave it to Bijin: "My wife said that she passed by her sister's yard on the last trip, visited rudely, and lost some snacks from Sister Lao. Of course, in this Shangyuan Festival, the Lantern Festival is indispensable, and the first layer is that it is made by my wife! ”

Su Yi and Han Suyin really never had a "rude visit", but since they said it seriously, they really thought it out and wanted to explain things to her. Thinking about it, Su Yi smiled and nodded: "Fourth sister is polite!" It's just a few vulgar snacks, but the fourth sister is worried about it, and it's a little embarrassing to call me a sister! I'm going to talk to you, thank you, Mrs., and say hello again. ”

"The slave and maid retired first," the comer blessed the body: "Mrs. also said that she knows that her sister likes sweet, and the bottom layer of this food box is full of things made of honey!" It's so sweet and greasy that she can't even eat it! Come to think of it, my sister is happy! ”

Su Yi smiled: "The fourth sister still knows me!" But once I dealt with it, I understood me so well, and my sister's heart was warm! I feel that the typhoid fever is much better, and my body is warmer! It's a bad luck today, in the event of typhoid fever, next time the fourth sister comes again, my sister will definitely go and thank you! ”

Miao Yin retreated, and Su Yi confirmed that there were no outsiders around, so she opened the last layer. After removing the snacks one by one, there was a tray of the same size as this box at the bottom, and Su Yi looked at it strangely.

Su Yi thought for a moment and handed the tray to Bi Jin: "Have you ever seen this kind of tray?" ”

"Trays? But a tray, what's so strange? Bijin looked at it carefully, and said, "Hmm" and said, "This is ...... It is also common to put a tray for boiling soup in the kitchen. Sister doesn't know, it's not strange, this is a small invention when the people are doing things, the kitchen and the dining room are far away, so there is such a setting, and there is a layer underneath, which is insulated. ”

Su Yi nodded: "Yes, it stands to reason that this layer is all glued, but you see that the glue has obviously been cut and dried with a knife, and it has dried up for a long time." They wouldn't be so careless in the kitchen, spilling something for them, unless it was deliberate. If I remember correctly, this is what Han Yingrui used for me when I gave wine to the fourth sister at that time. ”

"Well, the glue is gone, and it's not impossible to temporarily glue with water." Road.

Su Yi smiled and sighed faintly: "It's not necessary for this thing to be used to hold wine, but it's not a big deal, at most, it's a busy kitchen, so I just took one casually, and no one will pursue it." Moreover, the third lady specially asked someone to send new clothes and embroidered shoes that day, and I thought that the problem was in the shoes. But think about it carefully, what is the difference between using your hands and feet on your shoes and deliberately leaving a handle to teach people to grasp them?

"Successively the third lady Yongyi Hou and the fourth sister, all three of them have entered this house, why did I slip and fall? I thought later that it was the first time I had worn embroidered shoes, and it was reasonable to fall, but the door was indeed very slippery...... There was a curtain at the threshold, so they couldn't see each other inside and outside, and when they were chatting, someone went to the door to do something, but no one actually noticed...... Thinking about it this way, it seems to make sense, right? But Su Yi was puzzled again: "But, first of all, I can't understand the wine, the fourth sister can make wine, which is obviously not a good thing......"

Bi Jin sighed: "In order to disturb the marriage of the fourth sister Huang!" Don't think that the fourth sister is the adopted daughter of the third lady, so she is really raised as her own! The third lady is a master of acting on the spot, so she won't really be good to a child who doesn't crawl out of her belly! But this move, indeed, can be seen that the third lady is short-sighted.

"When I was serving by the old lady's side, the old lady often said that the third lady has many intrigues but immature thoughts, and is bold enough, but the city government is not enough, and she has no long-term thinking. Just said this trip, she just thought that she couldn't let the fourth sister marry a higher family than the eldest girl, but she didn't expect that in this way, she would lose her face and ruin the reputation of Hanfu's daughter. She still has the eighth sister who is not married, she thinks that she said that she said that the concubine made a mistake, and she could clear up the relationship, but in fact, otherwise, the whole house is prosperous and the loss is lost, if it is not for the Yongyi Hou lady who came this time, she looks out of the third lady's mind, otherwise she obeys the will of the third lady, the fourth sister does not marry a good family, and the daughters of the house have to suffer from the pond fish! ”

Su Yi frowned: "But, how can you say this reputation?" What's good and what's bad? One is prosperous and one is lost, then, one daughter is not good, and everything else is not good? ”

Bi Zhen bowed: "Back then, the Cen family and the Han family were actually barely right, but it's a pity that before my aunt got married, the boss of the Cen family had a bad reputation outside, and he dared to run on the street with a big belly, and he fell on the street, and the whole city knew about it, and Cen's father felt sorry for his daughter, so he was not willing to strangle her neck!" The man has a family, seven or eight women in the house, Father Cen also married his daughter to someone else's family as a flat wife, and later as soon as he entered the house, all the concubines died before and after, and later, Aunt Cen was a few sisters, and even the son of the Jiupin Sesame Official refused to ask for the Zhenhou Mansion, so he could only be small. ”

Su Yi gasped: "All the concubines in the mansion are dead? ”

"All kinds of methods, no matter whether it is assassination or not, it is okay to coerce him to commit suicide, the only man in the house fell into the river, and he died until he died, but his body was not good, and then the boss of the Cen family was angry, and he became a dragon and phoenix twins...... I don't know if it's true. ”

Su Yi wondered: "Can it be true?" ”

Bijin pouted: "Stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix ......"

"Such an intrigue, aren't you afraid of retribution?"

"Retribution is an afterlife! It's all about living well in the moment. Besides, it doesn't hurt that everyone is intrigued and doesn't blame the public, and as long as they don't go too far, they take it for granted. ”

"What are the two men talking about?" Aunt Cen walked in with a smile, her face was still not very good, some were pale and yellow, her lips were pale and her lips were pale and she often coughed a few times in her words.

Su Yi smiled at Bi Zhen, signaled her not to say anything, and then turned to Aunt Cen and said, "I didn't say anything, but my daughter recently listened to a story, and she had fun and talked about the harm caused by people in the back house of the Gaofu compound, saying that they were not afraid of retribution and thunder." ”

Su Yi smiled and helped Aunt Cen to sit down: "Why did my mother come so soon?" The daughter's sachet was embroidered and thrown away, and now the new one has just begun, and she can only hand in her homework before she can catch up with Ming'er. ”

Aunt Cen glanced at her angrily: "Hmph, while my mother is sick, I will be lazy!" ”

"Nope!" Su Yi glanced at the hairpin box on the corner of the couch and smiled secretly.

The gorgeous carpet can't hide the bone-chilling of the floor tiles, and the golden red carpet that once symbolized the endless glory of the lord of this palace seems to have lost all its luster, and the emperor stood with his hands in his hands, and he didn't look at the kneeling Empress Feng from beginning to end, and her defense and her mourning relatives were even more deaf. As soon as the decree was issued, the queen became a concubine, and the phoenix crown faded and was replaced by a gray hat; Zhaoyi Feng's position and the middle palace, the canonization ceremony is imminent.

Everyone knows that what queen is the master of the six palaces, but she openly took the lead in opposing the emperor's holy will, but the emperor finally couldn't bear this virtuous, but only virtuous, and not pleasing herself. The person who can ascend the throne is used to seeing many tricks, and he can see through most of Feng Zhaoyi's thoughts, but he just pretends not to see it, and pushes the boat to his own will.

Feng Miaolian has a lot of favor, and Mrs. Yi has lost her favor for a while, and the empty Huadian is no different from the cold palace. Han Fu was also anxious, but there was no way to turn around, dark clouds were empty all day long, and humanity was worried.

What kind of harem is a false love for everyone, but who would think about what happens to the people who are fictitious and their families? Behind the prosperity is how much blood and tears and other people's life pain.

Feng abolished the queen of knowledge, virtuous and virtuous, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, said that she was not jealous, as a concubine, her status was much higher than Feng Miaolian's daughter of the Kabuki, this is simply the standard for everyone to choose a wife, but she really became a wife, but the emperor abolished her again.

"If all women in the world were the same, they would like something different." said.

But a husband and wife can be a hundred days! Su Yi was distracted with the teacup for a long time, until Aunt Cen coughed a few times after the bed, and then quickly came back to her senses, poured boiling water into the teapot, mixed it with a cool boil, so that the tea could be eaten immediately, and handed it to Aunt Cen.

Quietly watching Aunt Cen drink tea, Su Yi couldn't help but feel worried. I thought that Aunt Cen was suffering from a cold that caused her cough in the old days, but she didn't get well after recuperating on the couch for so long. Zhou Jun came to ask for a pulse these days, except for asking a few times as usual if there was any mistake in the decoction of the recent medicine, his expression was strange, especially today, after opening a new prescription, he secretly pulled her and asked her to go outside and invite a senior brother of his to take a look.

He said that he had been a doctor for many years, and although his ancestors had practiced medicine for two generations, all his income came from books, and perhaps some of the symptoms could not be seen or known, and he should be asked to treat him with a wise doctor. The senior brother he recommended lives in Jingnan, and he knows a lot about traveling all over the world, and everyone is a famous doctor, and only occasionally returns to Beijing, but he can try his luck, and maybe he will be lucky enough to invite him to take a look.

Seeing Su Yi's solemn expression, Aunt Cen smiled: "I'm getting more and more useless, and I'll get sick if I catch a little wind, don't worry!" Hey, my Yi'er has grown up, fortunately, you are also the governor, seven days later, Xin'er's first birthday banquet, he is a concubine, I'm afraid that no one will pay attention to it, Yi'er, you have to continue this burden! ”

Su Yi nodded hurriedly: "This is nature!" Mother just needs to rest well, don't be tired anymore. ”

Aunt Cen smiled with relief, but she couldn't hold on for a while and coughed twice: "Yi'er has grown up, and my mother is relieved." ”

Seeing that Aunt Cen was uncomfortable, Su Yi couldn't help crying, but Aunt Cen's body is not doing now, what is the matter with crying at this time! Hurriedly put away her emotions, she smiled and continued: "Yes! Mother-in-law don't worry! I've grown up! ”

Aunt Cen smiled and nodded, and coughed for a while, Su Yi helped her get through it, but she refused to let Su Yi stay, so that she wanted her daughter to leave, so as not to get sick.

Su Yi had no choice but to respond, and saw that Aunt Cen fell asleep again due to headache and discomfort, and sighed lightly. Aunt Cen still had a broken cough in her sleep, and the incense burner was lit, which still had an impact on the patient, and it might be better to withdraw. Su Yi walked over, but before his hand touched the edge of the incense burner, a figure broke in outside the door: "Sister! That can't be moved! ”

Su Yi looked back at her, it was red rice, the eldest lady's visit a few days ago was considered to have made a meritorious service, and the eldest lady would not harm her, so she brought it up. In fact, few people in this house call her a girl or a sister, because most people don't look down on her, and red rice is no exception. This time he was flustered, and his words were very polite, could it be that he was tired?

"This incense burner is hot! You're delicate and expensive, it's better to let the slave do it! As he spoke, Hongmi stepped forward to take away the incense burner, his eyes staring at the incense burner vigorously, and Su Yi was not allowed to touch it for half a minute.

Su Yi smiled, took the incense burner, and said softly: "Red rice, A-Niang just fell asleep, and her voice was softer." ”

Redmi nodded hurriedly: "Yes, sister." ”

"Sister? You didn't call it that way in the past, didn't you say that I was the body of the young lady's maid? ”

Hongmi hurriedly smiled, stretched out his hand to say that he had taken the incense burner, and apologized: "Redmi was ignorant before, and he talked nonsense!" How can you say that you are also the little master of the house, these things, it would be good if there were people to do them! ”

She smiled and was about to take it, but Su Yi grabbed her arm: "Red rice, what's this?" ”

"Oh! Fang Chang! It is excellent benzoin. ”

Su Yi looked back at Aunt Cen who was already asleep behind her, smiled, and said softly: "Then you don't need to change it, let it go." ”

"How's that good? Although this is benzoin, there are some other ingredients in it, and now that my aunt has fallen asleep, it should be replaced with pure sleeping incense to light it. Seeing that Su Yi had no intention of stopping him, Hongmi smiled again, and then went out in a panic with the incense burner.

Something else? Tell her so bluntly?

Su Yi stopped at the door, watching Hongmi's figure flash at the end of the corridor, she thought about it, and followed quickly.

With the red rice, it went all the way to the backyard of the eldest lady, the red rice retracted into a small corner, somehow found a small shovel, found a tree on the spot and dug a pit, poured all the incense ashes into it, and then buried it carefully, looked around to make sure that there was no one, and then sneaked out again. The eldest lady's backyard is connected to the back garden, and when Red Rice walks on the garden path, Su Yi walks over: "Red Rice? Why are you here? ”

"Seven, seventh sister?"

Su Yi tilted her head: "What's the matter?" I wanted to steal my mother's things and I caught them? ”

Redmi didn't hide his panic at all: "No! No! Sister is clear! ”

"Then you pour incense ashes," Su Yi pursed her lips: "Why did you run so far?" ”

Hongmi swallowed his saliva and said, "Yes, yes, it was ordered by the housekeeper of the house!" It is said that it is not good for the ashes to be poured in the yard of one's house, so they have to come to the garden. ”

"That's it. All right. Su Yi quickly bypassed this topic and said: "By the way, it's been three days this month, but the monthly rules haven't been received yet, so you are not here, I thought I would go by the way, but since I met you now, it is better for you to run, and I will go back to take care of Xin'er a little, after all," she smiled slightly: "I am still the little master in this house." ”

Smiling and taking the incense burner in her hand, Su Yi sighed: "Since it has been poured over, then I will bring it back first, and I won't bother you to hold it." But this incense burner is very troublesome to clean...... I won't help you. ”

Hongmi tugged at the corners of her mouth: "That's good, I'm tired of you." ”

The moon flowers bloom in the garden behind the house, just like the snow on that winter day. Su Yi smelled the faint fragrance of flowers and shuttled through it, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility and comfort.

The Zhumen is mottled and the high wall locks the spring deep. Everything hangs in the air here, and it is difficult to distinguish the truth in people's hearts. I don't know if the article is geometric, and there seems to be a mystery in the furnace.
