Yan's courtyard was covered with gloom, she hadn't heard laughter for several days, several children cried for several days, the eldest sister also cried and hurt her throat, and the doctor asked her to drink thin honey water, and she couldn't speak for several days. She is the first-born child, even if she is Brother Yuan, she is not as long as when she was close to Shen Gui when she was a child.

Aunt Ai took her second sister to see her, sitting next to a chair in a regular manner, she is not a person who can speak well, the family has lost the backbone, she herself is quietly covered in the quilt and crying every night, every day is a mess, let alone say anything to persuade the second sister.

The three of them sat together wordlessly, and the atmosphere was depressing.

"Sister, my aunt is also there?" Ah Yuan walked in and said, "The county lord is here, saying that he has brought some gadgets from the north to everyone, please go over and pick them up." ”

Ah Yuan passed the word and left, "I, I won't go." "How can Aunt Ai have this thought?

The second sister thought for a while and said, "Auntie just knows that everyone is uncomfortable, so she thought of a way to evacuate everyone's hearts, even if it is to make my aunt feel at ease, let's go on a good trip, isn't my aunt still giving us Hou Ye ideas?" ”

A few people were moved by the words, washed their faces and walked to Yan's main house.

Yan's time was not easy, he had been recuperating from the injuries on his face for half a month, and the people in the house had withdrawn a lot, but now he felt annoyed when he saw a lot of people, except for Ah Yuan, there were few people in the house to serve.

The eldest sister knocked on the door, but when there was no answer, she pushed the door and walked in. The second sister and Aunt Ai also followed, and the conversation between Shen Qin and Yan was faintly heard in the room.

Yan suffered from sleeplessness, and there was a sense of tranquility burning in the daytime, and there was a misty feeling in the house.

"Will this work? Prisoner robbery is a great crime, where are you going to start? This is Yan's voice, the eldest sister was shocked when she heard this, and glanced at the second sister, the second sister's eyes widened, biting her lower lip and not daring to move. Aunt Ai was even more stunned, and she didn't even dare to breathe.

"Lingqiao West." Shen Qin whispered a place name that the eldest sister didn't know, she was a little nervous, and hurriedly called out loudly, "Auntie is here?" ”

Shen Qin's voice stopped abruptly, and then he paused, as if he was a little flustered, and said, "Yes, sister, come in, Mrs. Wu asked me to bring you a lot of earthen instruments to seal Snow City, you all come to take a look, and it is also her heart." ”

The three of them walked in in a panic, Yan leaned on the collapse, still looking sick and sad, Shen Qin sat on the round stool, looking at the obvious embarrassed or frightened looks on the faces of the three of them, he only smiled and beckoned them to choose gifts.

The eldest sister settled down, beckoned Aunt Ai and the second sister to sit on the side, and picked up a box of pastries to open it, and sat next to Yan's side, saying, "What about the third sister?" Why can't you see her? ”

Yan's face showed a mother's tenderness, and he touched the eldest sister's shoulder, "She and Aunt Zhu came to visit me earlier, and they have already asked them to take it first." ”

No one dared to mention the words that Fang had just heard in the outer room, but Aunt Ai was a little unexpected, and after stiffening for a while, she was able to follow them and chat for a few days.

Yan was still sick, and several people stayed for about half an hour, leaving the eldest sister, and Aunt Ai and the second sister said goodbye together.

The mother and daughter returned to their hut in silence, and the second sister asked for a pot of hot tea, poured a cup for Aunt Ai, and poured another cup for herself.

They looked at each other while holding the teacup, and the second sister said in a low voice, "Auntie, are you afraid?" ”

Aunt Ai looked at the few sporadic tea leaves in the teacup, and didn't speak for a long time, and when the second sister thought she had nothing to say, she suddenly said, "What are you afraid of?" It is better for the county lord to help save your father like this than to let him be destroyed in that high mountain and far away place. ”

The second sister was silent for a moment, feeling guilty for the selfish worry in her heart, and only nodded heavily.

This matter was put aside in Aunt Ai's heart, she couldn't vomit, and she couldn't rot, she dreamed every night, only dreamed of a bloody Shen Gui, and then the dream came to an abrupt end, she woke up in a panic, sleepless until dawn.

It wasn't until Yan knew about this and gave her a share of his tranquilizing incense and medicine that Aunt Ai had a few good nights.

Brother Yuan is also as thin as a kitten, and he has been raising with Princess Ping these days, and Yan's body is slightly better, so he took him back.

The child's size hasn't changed much, but the whole person seems to have become sensible and stable overnight, and he doesn't like to talk anymore, or Jiang Sheng often comes to the palace to play with him, and Brother Yuan saw a little bit of a teenager's smile on his face.

Aunt Ai looked at Brother Yuan from a distance, and she also felt distressed, she saw that under the shade of the tree, Aunt Zhu stood there quietly looking at Brother Yuan.

Jiang Sheng was leading him to practice archery, and finally hit it once, but the strength was not enough, and the arrow shook on the target and fell.

"You're still going to eat more meat!" Jiang Sheng pinched Brother Yuan'er's arm and said.

There was a sound of footsteps from far and near, Aunt Zhu turned around, and saw Aunt Ai coming over, Aunt Ai pinched the handkerchief and patted her chest, and said, "You have sharp ears that scared me." ”

Aunt Zhu has lost a lot of weight, and it's not surprising, except for the heartless third sister, who hasn't lost weight? She smiled reluctantly at Aunt Ai, didn't speak, and continued to look at Brother Yuan.

"Why don't you go up and say a few words? My brother has been kept in the princess's courtyard during this time, and you haven't seen him for a long time, right? Aunt Ai said heartily.

Aunt Zhu only said softly, looking a little cold.

Everyone was in a bad mood, Aunt Ai didn't complain about her, and said a few words in pieces, Aunt Zhu never took care of herself, she also felt bored, and said, "Then I'll go." ”

Aunt Zhu nodded, Aunt Ai didn't know how long she had been standing under the shade of the tree, and finally whether she had stepped forward to talk to Brother Yuan, but she only knew that after another half a month, there was a shocking bad news, Shen Gui encountered a group of mountain bandits on the way to be escorted, and the officers and soldiers were all in danger of their lives.

When Aunt Ai heard the news, she softened silently, and her head knocked out a big swollen bag on the corner of the table, and she fainted for five days before she woke up.

When she woke up, the eldest sister and the second sister were beside her bedside, the second sister's eyes were as red as peaches, she didn't want her daughter to be sad, she endured nausea and drank a lot of bitter medicine, so she was gradually able to sit and stand.

The second sister saw that she was in good spirits, so she dared to tell her that when she was asleep, Aunt Zhu suddenly fell ill at night and died without a sound.

When she heard this, Aunt Ai was combing her second sister's hair, and she wanted to comb a three-mustard bun, but she was not interested, so she only combed a double mustache. She pretended to be fine, but after a while, she still had a comb in her hand.

"It's also her affection." Aunt Ai said gloomily that the second sister was afraid that she would die in her heart, so she threw herself into her arms and cried, asking her to swear that she would take a good look at her as her own son.

"Have you gone to see your third sister? She must have been upset. Aunt Ai said.

The second sister wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "The third sister is now in the grandmother's courtyard, it seems that she has lost her honor in front of her grandmother, and her grandmother asked her to kneel in the Buddha hall to change, and she also sent her grandmother to teach her every day, I haven't seen her for a long time." ”

In fact, the second sister didn't know much, and when she saw Aunt Ai's puzzled face, she explained as a matter of course: "Maybe it's because she lost her biological mother and her mind is confused, so she behaves inappropriately." ”

Aunt Ai nodded and sighed again.

Shen Qin came to visit Princess Ping today, stood in Yan's room for a while, and when he came out, he met the eldest sister and the second sister under the corridor, and the second sister saw that Shen Qin also had a haggard face, but she was in good spirits.

The three of them said a few words under the corridor, the second sister hesitated to ask about the third sister, but was dragged by the eldest sister, Shen Qin pretended not to see it, and said to the eldest sister: "You are the eldest child in the family, you have to take care of your younger siblings in the future, if you can't make up your mind about anything, you can ask your grandmother, or come to ask me." ”

"Got it, auntie." The eldest sister is blessed, and said.

Shen Qin looked at the eldest sister's gradually slender figure, stroked the broken hair on her forehead, and secretly carried the future marriage of these nieces on his shoulders.

After seeing these two nieces, Shen Qin went to Princess Ping's courtyard, and when she mentioned the third sister, Princess Ping frowned, although it was Shen Gui's blood and bones, but she had been raised by that woman's side for so many years, and she was a selfish and selfish person, she really didn't worry about letting this girl out.

"She knows it." At the thought that the woman was picked up by herself, Princess Ping's heart was sour.

When Aunt Zhu was detained in front of Princess Ping, she naturally understood everything, and she recognized it all.

Princess Ping raised her hand high and slapped herself in the face.

"You're a nobleman, and now I can't even kill you." Shen Qin said so at that time.

Aunt Zhu smiled miserably and said, "The slave doesn't want to live anymore, go down to accompany the master." ”

She asked for a pen and paper to write down that her task was over, and she was willing to bury the secret when she died, and she used her mouth in front of Princess Ping and Shen Qin. The bird who had delivered the message to her summoned and sent it out.

Then he drank the poison and did not ask his two children until he died.

"What a heart of stone!" Princess Ping hated.

Aunt Zhu lay on the ground, perhaps thinking that she would be able to see Shen Gui soon, her expression was quiet and peaceful, but unfortunately, she couldn't do it.

On that day, Shen Qin and Yan set up two traps in Lingqiao West and Lingqiao East, and only at that time, where someone was ambushed, they could catch who was revealed.

Chen Zhi took a great risk to borrow men and horses from the regent, and as soon as the ambush in the east of Lingqiao was dispatched, Shen Gui was moved, and it seemed that the flesh and blood that fell off the cliff were blurred, but in fact he had stolen beams and changed pillars and was placed in the south.

The emperor thought that the Ping Wangfu had reaped the consequences, and only used the sloppy mountain bandits as an excuse to send them away, and the Ping Wangfu was 'weak-hearted', so naturally he didn't dare to say anything.
