Chapter 02: Admitting Mistakes
"Ahh
Shen Nianzhen opened his eyes, the fear in his eyes did not subside, and cold sweat was dripping.
There was a pale pink gauze tent, and the room was quiet, only the corner of the wall was more leaky and ticking.
There was a faint grayish white on the rhombus window, and the sky was about to dawn.
"Miss."
The maid walked in with a copper basin towel and was surprised to see her sitting on the edge of the bed: "Why are you up?" It only fell into the water yesterday, and the doctor said that he should recuperate......"
Shen Nianzhen's eyes were stunned, looking at Ruhua, who is only twelve years old now, and the boudoir that he was familiar with before, his heart beat like a drum.
She, isn't she dead?
On the night she was sent to Father-in-law Cao's house by Shen Nianci, she lit a fire, burned down the place where countless girls were buried, and buried herself.
Now......
She reached out and touched her face, white and tender, soft, with a sense of immaturity that only a girl has.
Shen Nianzhen got out of bed, walked to the dresser, looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and his eyes slowly turned red.
"Miss, you ......" Picturesque looked surprised.
Shen Nianzhen gradually calmed down, glanced back at the picturesque, and said lightly: "You go down first, I still want to sleep for a while."
Picturesque was surprised, but replied, "Yes."
Walking outside the door, she looked back suspiciously, not knowing if it was an illusion, she always felt that the young lady was a little different from before.
In the room, Shen Nianzhen lay down on the bed again, his eyes slightly closed, but his heart was extremely excited.
God has eyes, and he actually brought her back to life! Living before she got married, when her father and brother were still alive, in this life, she will definitely polish her eyes, expose the human skins with masks, expose those vicious tricks, and protect her father and brother!
Shen Nianci, Lu Yiming, I'm back, are you ready?
A grim smile appeared at the corner of Shen Nianzhen's mouth.
Half an hour later, Ruhua came in to serve, and Shen Nianzhen asked lightly: "Just now you said that I fell into the water, what happened to that?" β
"Miss forgot? Yesterday you led the second miss, and the fourth miss was playing in the back garden, and then the fourth miss pushed you into the water......"
Shen Nianzhen remembered.
When she was thirteen years old, her grandfather was seriously ill, so the second and third uncles, who were officials in other places, were called back to Kyoto, intending to leave one of their rooms in Kyoto to help her father set up the door, and her grandfather actually wanted the third uncle.
However, she accidentally fell into the water in the back garden, and under the praying and instigation of the second sister Shen Nianci, she actually slandered herself in front of her grandmother that it was the fourth sister Shen Nianzhu who pushed herself, and the three rooms and one vein were rejected because of this, and she left Beijing and never returned for more than ten years.
The second uncle's family, who was supposed to leave Beijing, stayed because of Shen Nianci.
Later, her father was convicted, but the second room was thriving, and her fiancΓ©, the prince of the Hou Mansion in Beizhen, who had been set since childhood, personally took the marriage contract to the door to ask for cancellation, and turned around to marry her cousin Shen Nianci.
And she, the daughter of the Great Commander's Mansion, who was originally high, was scattered into mud and allowed to be trampled on.
Shen Nian closed his eyes violently, not thinking about those unbearable days.
"What about the four sisters?"
"Miss Hui, kneel on the steps of Chunhui Courtyard." Picturesque said angrily to the enemy: "Miss, she caused you to fall into the water and fall seriously ill, but you can't easily forgive her!" The old lady said that she wants to be angry for you! ββ
As soon as the words fell, Shen Nianzhen had already pushed her away and walked out of the house.
It had only rained a few times, and the begonia tree in the corner of the courtyard was blooming gorgeously, looking at this familiar and unfamiliar place, Shen Nianzhen's eyes were a little moist, she endured it, and walked to the corridor with her picturesque arm.
"Miss, the old lady said, you don't have to go to ask for peace these two days......"
"Long-winded."
Shen Nianzhen quickened his pace, and when he walked to the door of Chunhui Courtyard, he saw a pale green petite figure kneeling on the steps from a distance, trembling slightly.
That was the fourth young lady Shen Nianzhu who was wronged by her.
Since childhood, two people have not dealt with each other.
Shen Nianzhen bit his lip, raised his foot and walked over, and suddenly knelt down beside Shen Nianzhu without saying a word!
This move instantly stunned everyone in Chunhui Courtyard!
The laughter in the upper room through the heavy curtain stopped in an instant.
"Miss! What are you doing! Picturesque asked in surprise.
However, Shen Nianzhen hadn't answered yet, and Shen Nianzhu, who had been kneeling on the steps, suddenly turned her head, glared at Shen Nianzhen viciously, raised her hand and slapped her.
"Shen Nianzhen! You hurt me, and you still have the face! β
The crisp slap suddenly stunned everyone, seeing that Shen Nianzhu raised her arm and was about to hit again, the curtain of the upper room was opened, and Mrs. Shen's angry voice came: "It's really the opposite!" What are they doing one by one! β
"Old lady forgiveness!" A large group of maids and women all knelt down.
Old Lady Shen's eyes fell on Shen Nianzhen's face distressedly, looking at the bright red slap print, she suddenly became angry, pointed at Shen Nianzhu tremblingly, and said angrily: "Someone!" Call her mother! And so you go! Go back to Cangzhou, never return to Beijing again, get in my way! β
"Let's go!" The little Shen Nianzhu was only ten years old, but she stubbornly held her little face high and refused to give in.
Old Lady Shen fell to her back in anger.
In this time of chaos, Shen Nianzhen raised his head and said word by word: "Grandmother, my granddaughter is here to admit her mistakes to you, it's all her granddaughter's fault, she wronged the fourth sister, it wasn't she who pushed me into the water." β
As soon as these words came out, there was silence all around.
Old Lady Shen looked at her in disbelief and said in shock: "Zhen'er! What did you say! β
