Where is the green smoke (1)

Next Chapter

Luo Shu is slightly warm, the purple silk cloth light gauze tent is half-hidden, the light lilac curtain is ethereal and misty, through the crystal clear purple bead curtain, it can be vaguely seen that a square case is surrounded by bamboo soft mats. Not far from the head of the bed, a delicate incense burner was slowly emitting light smoke, wisps dissipating or drilling in the air

Entering the warm tent, it is a faint fragrance, and it smells very refreshing. Ling Xiao propped himself up from the bed and looked at all this in confusion, was this a dream, or was this the place that people saw after death? This is a noble women's boudoir dominated by light purple, and the various items in the house are meticulously placed everywhere

It reflects the intention of the owner of the room.

The door was opened from the outside, and a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old, with her hair in a bun, walked in with a basin of water. After seeing Ling Xiao, a basin of water fell to the ground with a clatter, and after being stunned for a moment, he ran out excitedly, and kept shouting: "Wait, madam, young lady wake up."

Finish. Ling Xiao was confused by her reaction, not knowing what was going on.

Soon after, a man and woman dressed in extraordinary clothes walked into the room with joy and eagerness, followed by several subordinates. The man's instrument is extraordinary, with a little white hair mixed between the long hair he is tied up, and a righteous face with kindness, that is the Hou Ye Zhong Liyi in the girl's mouth. And the woman watched

It is also a noble look, wearing a golden step on his head, jade beads in his ears, holding a silk roba, and wearing a silk embroidered robe. looked dignified and generous, at this time she had tears in the corners of her eyes, she was excited, and when she came over, she pulled Ling Xiao into her arms and said, "Yu'er, you finally woke up, it's been five days,

You're scaring me to death. ”

Ling Xiao struggled to push her away, looking at all this with strange eyes, she was a little stunned because of Ling Xiao's actions.

At this time, Zhong Liyi spoke: "Don't be so excited, you see that you are scared." As he spoke, he reached out and probed Ling Xiao's forehead, and continued: "It's been five days, and the high fever has finally subsided. What's wrong with you, you don't know us anymore? I am your father! You have been with us for six years, and now at the end

So you can be reunited, your mother is looking forward to your coming home every day! ”

Ling Xiao became more and more curious, who was this? "Who are you?" Ling Xiao asked tentatively.

Zhong Liyi and his wife He were stunned when they heard Ling Xiao's words, and He shed tears again: "I am your mother!" You don't even know your mother anymore? In the past six years, we are sorry for you, don't you be angry with your mother, okay? ”

There seemed to be pleading in He's tone, and Ling Xiao's heart couldn't help but twitch, thinking of his tearful mother in front of the hospital bed.

At this time, the imperial doctor came, and after explaining the situation, the imperial doctor came to the conclusion that Ling Xiao's amnesia was caused by the high fever that did not go away, and everything else was fine.

After hearing this, He Shi looked at Ling Xiao distressedly: "Yu'er, it's really hard for you, although you forgot everything, but it doesn't matter, you will slowly remember it in the future." ”

"Where is this? Why do you call me Yu'er?" Ling Xiao's eyes were full of doubts.

"This is Yunhou Mansion, the home where you were born, and you are our daughter Zhong Liyuan." Zhong Liyi's eyes were full of distress.

Ling Xiao looked at them and found that they didn't look like they were lying, but rather worried, and she didn't want to ask any more, she was sure that she would figure it all out.

"Miss must be hungry now, go and bring the porridge prepared for Miss." He turned his head to the girl beside him and said.

After receiving the order, the girl went out with the people behind her. Now that there were only the three of them left in the room, Ling Xiao looked at their kind faces and felt a little touched. She thought that since this was the case now, she could only come and go.

After eating the porridge, Ling Xiao said that he was tired and wanted to rest. So the two of them left, leaving the girl to wait by her side.

Ling Xiao was lying on the bed, thinking about this bizarre thing that had happened, and she couldn't believe it, her current name was Zhong Liyan, what was going on? She thought about it, and slowly felt her head sink more and more, and finally fell asleep.

In the dream, she seemed to return to her childhood, when she was full of loneliness. Far away from his mother, Ling Xiao lives alone in a villa in Norway, with no close people around him except for the well-defined white-skinned maid and governess. I can only see my mother once or twice a year.

At Christmas, some of the maid's children can receive a warm gift and the company of their families, but she can only say a few words to her mother through a short video, and receive an expensive gift that her mother asked her assistant to prepare, which has no value to her. She lived in Norway for fifteen years, fifteen

When he was young, he went to the United States to study, and at the age of 18, he returned to China to take over his mother's company. For eighteen years, she received the highest level of education, and finally became the person her mother wanted her to be, but she was lonely and lonely inside, which also made her temperament more and more indifferent. Originally, she thought that her mother was nothing

than a cold-blooded person, but it wasn't until she was twenty-five years old that she was dying of cancer that she found out that her mother could also cry.

When Ling Xiao woke up again, wisps of sunlight were shining on the incense burner from the crack in the window, and the incense burner was still slowly emitting a trace of green smoke, sunlight and green smoke were intertwined, the picture was so ethereal. The room was quiet, she lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and walked barefoot in the room, observing

The furnishings in the room finally stopped in front of a bronze mirror, looking at the figure in the bronze mirror, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, seemed to have the same appearance as her, except that the green silk that reached the ground like a waterfall formed a sharp contrast with her brown wavy curls. This is Zhong Liyuan, who is now her, and Ling Xiao

It no longer exists, she is about to start a new life, and she shook her head helplessly in the face of all this.

Ling Xiao returned to the bedside, put on his shoes, opened the door and walked out. The sun was shining outside, and the peach blossoms of the two trees in the corner of the courtyard were in full bloom, and the petals were falling all over the ground. The swing under the tree, although the swing is already mottled, it looks very clean.

Ling Xiao walked over and sat on the swing, bathed in the warm sunshine, looking at the clusters of peach blossoms competing to bloom overhead, and thought of when he was in Norway, he had planted a lot of heather with his own hands. There are many varieties of heather, and she compares

What I like is the pale pink, the pale pink like a peach blossom. Although the two flowers have similar colors, their shapes and habits are very different.

After a long time, there was another girl beside her, and she remembered that it was the same girl she had seen when she first woke up.

"What time is it?" She asked.

"Miss Hui, it's not yet noon."

"You're my valet in waiting?" Ling Xiao continued to ask, "What's your name?" How long has it been with me? ”

The girl looked at Ling Xiao: "Slave maid, since Miss went to Beiyue Kingdom, I have been by Miss's side, and it has been six years now." ”

"North Vietnam? What's going on? Ling Xiao felt a little curious in his heart.

"It seems that Miss has a fever and has really forgotten what happened before," Qian'er sighed, "When Miss was eight years old, it was calculated that if you didn't leave the house before the time, disaster would happen to you, and she said that you could only go home when you were an adult." Lord Hou and Mrs. are worried that something bad will really happen,

At that time, the eldest lady was about to make peace with the northern country, so the Hou Ye reluctantly asked the eldest lady to take you to the northern Yue country, where six years passed. Now that the young lady is about to arrive, the lady is thinking about the girl again, so the Hou Ye sent someone to pick up the young lady back, thinking that it will only be a month or two, and nothing should happen again.

As a result, I didn't expect to encounter rain on the way, Miss was drenched in the rain, felt cold, and came back with a high fever, which was five days, but the Hou Ye and Mrs. were in a hurry, but fortunately, Miss is finally fine now. ”

"What time is it?" Ling Xiao wanted to know the era she was in now, so she continued to ask.

"It's the twenty-first year of the 10th Central Plains." As she was talking, she saw a maid walk into the courtyard, came to Ling Xiao and saluted, and said, "Madame asked me to see if Miss had woken up, and asked Miss if she would go to the dining room to accompany her for lunch, or if she would use it in the room." "Ling Xiao also wants to go out for a walk at the moment, Yu

Yes, he said that he would go to the dining room, and the maid took the order and left first. Qian Er served Ling Xiao to freshen up and change her clothes, this dress is also complicated enough to wear, and the long skirt dragged on the ground, which also caused inconvenience, Ling Xiao thought that she would probably need to adapt to the current lifestyle for a while.

Ling Xiao came to the dining room with Qi'er, the scenery along the way really attracted her, I have to say, such a scene is something she has never seen before, green trees, flowers, rockeries, lakes, pavilions, these are exquisitely designed together, making people pleasing to the eye.

The food had been laid out, and when He saw Ling Xiao coming in, he beckoned to Ling Xiao and motioned for Ling Xiao to sit next to her.

"How do you feel? What's uncomfortable? Tell your mother. He Shi said with concern, and took Ling Xiao's hand, but Ling Xiao reflexively shrunk, this action made He Shi a little stunned. Ling Xiao doesn't like to have physical contact with people, which she has slowly formed over the past 20 years.

It's understandable that it can't be changed for a while.

"Yu'er, don't be like me, okay? This is your home, don't be afraid. It's been six years, and you finally came back to me, but you don't have the same lively and cheerful as before, it's all because your mother is not good, and in the past six years, you have lacked your mother's love, and you have suffered so much at a young age. "Ho

Shi's tone was very sad, more with self-blame. This made Ling Xiao feel a trace of emotion in her heart, for more than 20 years, her mother He had told her this, which couldn't help but make her envious of Zhong Liyan.

In order to try not to make the He family have more self-blame, Ling Xiao said: "Mother, I'm sorry, I made you sad. ”

When He heard this, he was overjoyed: "It's my mother who is sorry for you, you can still forgive me, I'm already content." Come, let's eat. As he spoke, he put the dishes in Ling Xiao's bowl, Zhong Liyi looked at He's movements, smiled and shook his head. Ling Xiao picked up the jade bowl and scooped the soup in the bowl with a jade spoon

Gulp by sip.

"Is it that today's dishes are not in harmony with the taste? These are all the things you used to like to eat, right? Ling Xiao was asked by He Shi like this, stopped what he was doing, and replied, "No, the food is very delicious." ”

"Then don't just drink soup, eat more vegetables." As he spoke, he put a piece of fish in the jade dish in front of Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao's face was embarrassed, but he still said, "Mother, I forgot how to use chopsticks." And picked up the chopsticks in front of him to signal. As soon as her words came out, He and the people waiting beside her were startled, and everyone looked at her with an incredulous look. Ling Xiao instantly felt embarrassed and couldn't use chopsticks

What an incredible thing, but a fact. When she was in Norway, she always ate Western food, and occasionally Chinese chefs cooked Chinese food for her, but at that time she also used a fork, and later after returning to China, due to her busy work, she did not go to eat with chopsticks.

"That's not called chopsticks, it's called 梜jiā, your amnesia is a bit serious, and you've forgotten your basic life skills." Zhong Liyi was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything else.

"Master Hou, don't talk about Yuan'er, it doesn't matter, you can learn it again, as for the name, it's whatever you like to call it." Ho said.

Ling Xiao continued to drink the soup in the bowl, and then put the dishes in the jade plate into the bowl and ate it with a spoon. The others were dumbfounded, but they still followed Ling Xiao's wishes.

"Are there any books in the house that record historical materials?" Ling Xiao put down the jade bowl and asked. She doesn't know much about this Central Plains country, and she doesn't want such a confused life. Although she has only lived in China for seven years, she has been involved in some antiques business because the company is involved in some antiques, and the history of China is also hers for thousands of years

It was something she had to learn since she was a child, but she had never heard of this Central Plains country, so she wanted to find out.

"You want to read history books?" Zhong Liyi put down the dishes and chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and continued: "I'm resting today, and I happen to be at home in the afternoon. ”
