After painting the screen, Zhixi couch.

Gu Cuo slowly knelt on the ground, tears came out of his eyes, and his heavy big hand was slowly raised, wanting to caress the bubbles on her face, but he was afraid that the touch would cause her pain, so he couldn't bear to retract his hand again, and covered his face with both hands and cried bitterly: "Who is it, who is it, who is it that harms you like this?" ”

"Bone mistake, what, is there really a monster?" The master hurried over and asked each other anxiously, and there were Wu Niangzi, Dian Er, Chen Zigui and a servant who should be with him.

"Father! You don't come in. Everyone else, go back too," Gu Cuo said in the middle: "Dian Er is left alone." ”

"Is there something wrong with Zhixi?" The Master continued.

"Nothing." Gu Cuo said: "I'm a little frightened, just come and prescribe a side medicine." You and Zigui, go back to Gumuyin and have business, let's go back first. Zhixi can't go along. "The bone has always been one and the same, and the sound is loud, Dian Er entered the house, and the rest of the people went their own way.

"Close the door," Gu Cuo said to Dian Er. Dian Er didn't understand why Gu Wrong was so secretive, not like his usual style. Or according to his words, he closed the door.

Dian'er walked lightly, walked to the back of the painting screen, and when she saw Zhixi's appearance on the bed, she couldn't help but be shocked, covered her mouth with her hands and shouted, and then saw that Gu Cuo was silent, as if she realized why he was covering it, so she lowered her voice and asked Gu Cuo: "Why did she become like this?!" ”

The master and Zigui were on official business, so they could not be delayed, and directly sat in the carriage and horse sedan chair prepared in advance, and went back to Gumuyin. Leave it at ease. Let's say that the subordinates who served Wu Niangzi in the house, together with the cook and the maid who came to report the accident before, began to guess again in private:

"The young master kept saying that she was fine, I think it was to protect her, too much, but I just wanted to cover her face" The cook had witnessed Zhixi's tragic situation, and spoke first: "When I went to Weixi Hall to find Zhixi this morning, I saw it with my own eyes, her appearance was simply miserable, her face was full of burning bubbles, her eyes were blind, and there was blood, no different from a monster." ”

"Yes, yes, I saw it too" said the pineapple who went to report the news before, "I was sent by the young master to serve her by her side, but I know." ”

"Forget it, who are fooling you, who doesn't understand, you sent her to be a maid, it's just for show, to show King Rong's mansion. What is Zhixi's status in the house, who doesn't know, you still serve her? If she doesn't bring you tea and water, it's enough for Amitabha. When you say that, the devil will believe it! The other servant sneered, not believing the maid.

"Don't believe it!" The maid turned around angrily and left, leaving her words: "Look at it, she is still in the house, it's okay to not see anyone for a day or two, after a long time, Wu Niangzi also doesn't support the ancestors of idlers, she must come out to work, and then you will know that what I said is correct." ”

The cook saw that everyone didn't believe it, and she didn't speak, so she went to cook by herself, and the remaining servants, listening to the words of the two before, also became suspicious, but they couldn't figure it out:

"If it's really like what the orange girl said just now, Zhixi is broken and blind, then who is the victim? No one dares to go to her yard. ”

"That is, she is an inferior servant, who cares what she looks like, as for harming her?"

"The young master's eyes only grow on her alone, it's hard to guarantee which girl is underneath, I'm jealous, I hate because of jealousy."

"Yes, besides, she doesn't invite Mrs. Wu to see her, and she can't guarantee it, Mrs. Wu is afraid that she will kill the broom star of the prospective mother-in-law (the third princess of King Rong) before she enters the gate of King Rong's mansion, but don't be insisted on being accepted by the young master again, and it will be her mother-in-law who will be killed at that time, so it may be there to prevent trouble."

"Shh, don't talk nonsense, Mrs. Wu heard it, I don't know how ugly Jing Zhixi is, we have to be skinned first"

"Yes, let's hurry up and work, she hasn't come out for three days or five days, but we have suffered for her, or any work, we can send her any work. She didn't dare to refuse. ”

…….

The people talked and talked for a long time, and then dispersed to work.

Besides, in the Weixi Palace, both Dian Er and Gu Cuo temporarily accepted the reality and calmed down, and Dian Er carefully watched the injury for her.

"This bubble, at first glance, is a new injury, it is poured with boiling water, poured on the face, and gets up," Dian Er said: "Your house, who hates her so much?" ”

"She wears 'turbidity' on her hand, and it shouldn't leave a wound," Gu said wrongly, "unless, unless, it's just burned by someone." ”

"Cook?" Dian Er asked in surprise: "She works in the kitchen, and the boiling water is ready-made." It's just that I'm also speculating, not necessarily the facts, always need evidence. ”

As she spoke, the blisters on Zhixi's face under Dian'er were a little smaller, and the previous ones had a tendency to disappear, she happily looked up at the bone and said: "You turbidity extinguishing is really a divine thing, you know that turbidity extinguishing will not leave her a scar, and what do you leave me to do, think about it, when you open the door to see her, her injuries are even more miserable." By the time I arrived, my injuries had healed a bit. ”

"If it weren't for the ghost between the arms, the strength was too strong, such an injury, the turbidity could be recovered immediately, and now, it was the sin of pain that made Zhixi unconscious." Gu said wrongly: "I left you because I knew that you and your master made an appointment to return together today, so naturally you have common medicines with you, and it is also good to relieve Zhixi's pain." ”

"It's just, her eyes, cloudy, can they be saved?" Dian'er asked worriedly.

"Turbidity can only eliminate scars, like her, the injury is in the conjunctiva of the eyeball, colorless and invisible, and there are dilated pupils," Gu Wrong said: "Divine things are also powerless, besides, I can also feel that in the world we live in now, there seems to be some kind of situation, even the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon can't be nourished, because Muluo (Visitor), my fox pawns, and tiger demons and the like have all been consumed and have no mana." Even my Zhanlu and Muluo's demon pestle are becoming more and more uneasy, thinking about it, the turbidity of the mana is also slowly decreasing, and the fashion can't be cured, what about now? ”

"It's true that the pupils are dilated," Dian Er opened Zhixi's eyes, looked at them, and sighed: "I'm afraid that in the future, my eyes won't be able to open." ”

"Whoever harms her, I will seek justice for her." The bones are cut to the bottom of the railway, and the arc of the ice carving on the face is becoming more and more resolute.

For the next two days, Zhixi closed her door to recuperate. The servants below are used to being idle, and suddenly they are busy, and they are all gossiping in front of Wu Niangzi, Wu Niangzi really shouldn't be, on the third day, when the bones are wrong, they are about to go straight to the Weixi Palace, and they are scolded by Wu Niangzi.

"Stop!" Wu Niangzi yelled at the back of the bone mistake. Gu Wrong stopped, turned around, and gave Wu Niangzi a gift, "Go to the mother's room in the evening." ”

"You still remember to settle the province in the morning and dusk, look at you, what kind of system has you become now, the first thing you do when you come back is to run to the Weixi Palace, in addition to the morning and dusk province, can I still see your figure? What's there? Vixen? Wu Niangzi shouted: "It's all ugly, and it's like a baby, and I go to serve it in person every day." ”

"Has my mother seen Zhixi? How do you know that she has become an ugly bastard, or do you think that she should be an ugly woman now? Gu Cuo's face turned pale, and he questioned Mrs. Wu.

"I... I..."Wu Niangzi said twice: "I listened to what the people below said, why, you actually doubt me?" Suspicious of your birth mother. ”

"I said, Zhixi is fine, since you haven't seen her, you shouldn't talk nonsense" Gu Cuo knows that this matter must have something to do with Wu Niangzi, but the mother is respected, and he is not good to disobey her directly, and there is no evidence of guilt.

"Since there is nothing to do, I don't go out of the gate every day, and I don't step out of the second door, do I really think I am the eldest lady?!" Wu Niangzi has a reason, so she can't spare people: "In my house, I can't afford to raise idlers and ancestors." The voice that spoke, facing the house of the Weixi Palace, raised the tone of the octave, for fear that Zhixi would not be able to hear it.

Zhixi heard it in the house, her eyes were closed, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes, dripping onto her smooth and flawless skin, like pearls brushing across the water.

Gu Cuo didn't speak, and was about to go to the house again, but Wu Niangzi pulled her sleeves and scolded: "You have no face, I still want face, she hasn't started yet, you go to her house every day, let me, let me put my old face, where to go." ”

"Those who are clean are self-purifying" said wrongly: "I am self-conscious, sit upright, and never cross the rules." She was frightened and emotionally unstable a few days ago, is it wrong for me, as an elder brother, to take care of her condition? ”

"Okay, okay, I can't talk about you," Wu Niangzi said: "You read a belly of poetry books, and you are angry with me like this?" She either came out to work, or let King Rong's Mansion pick her up. ”

"Isn't there already a few more servants, isn't it enough for my mother?" Gu Cuo was helpless, and turned to beg: "Why does my mother have to torture her alone?" ”

"I torture her?" Wu Niangzi said: "I really want to raise her like a young grandmother, and the gossip outside, a mouthful of spit, can drown me." Besides, she's ominous. I'll tell you the truth, I just want to force her to leave, who would have thought that she would take care of the whole house, and she would depend on her life, just if she didn't leave, what could I do. ”

Gu Cuo broke free from her, strode to the room where Zhixi was in the Weixi Palace.

"I'm sorry," Zhixi closed her eyes and cried, with a painful expression written on her face, "I caused you trouble." I can't see anything now, I can't adapt to it, I want to go out and do what I do every day, but now, I can't do anything, I can't even bring myself a glass of water....."

On the ground was broken a cup that Zhixi had broken because she couldn't see it, pouring water for herself. The bone was mislooked, and the pain in my heart increased again.

Zhixi bent over and groped on the ground, trying to clean up the pieces by herself, so she sobbed and said, "However, I will adapt, I will, I can adapt." I can do anything, Gu Wrong, you tell Wu Niangzi for me, I can still do anything......"

She begged for a bone mistake, trying to prove with practical actions that she was not a waste person, she could still do things, but her hand was scratched and bleeding by the fragments of the teapot, she didn't know, she didn't feel pain, this morning, last night, what she had experienced had made her numb, forgetting that she would still hurt.

Gu Cuo squatted down, grabbed her fingers with both hands, sucked off the blood from her fingertips, and led her to the chair by the window, sat her down, and bandaged her: "I am the last person you need to ask for in this world." ”
