The incense burner is filled with fine benzoin, which can sleep peacefully.

It's just that for Xiao Qingqing, such a strong aroma has no effect.

Her insomnia all day and all night, even a short nap has become a luxury.

In addition to insomnia, she was also flustered, and she didn't know what she was panicking about, and she was miserable all day long, as if something bad was going to happen.

The imperial doctors in the palace came and went, and each of them would prescribe a prescription, the medicinal juice was black and bitter, and they gritted their teeth and drank bowl after bowl, but it had no effect.

After being sick for more than half a year, the illness became more and more serious, and Xiao Qingqing decided that his life was short.

Although she couldn't sleep, her head was groggy all day long, and she hardly had time to be awake.

Sleepless sleep is like a torture, which has tormented her to the bone, and she is no longer beautiful and dignified before.

Mother Qin looked at her pleadingly, handed over the spoon in her hand again, and begged her like a child: "Daughter, you can eat one more bite!" ”

Xiao Qingqing is a filial daughter, she couldn't bear to disappoint her mother, so she swallowed the soup with discomfort.

The taste is the same as chewing wax.

If it weren't for the fact that she desperately ate something at every meal, I was afraid that she would not be able to hold it for a long time.

"Madam, Miss, the third girl of the Tan family is here, do you want to see it?"

"It's rare that she has the heart, come over on such a cold day," Xiao Qingqing said: "Just let her in!" ”

At the beginning of Xiao Qingqing's illness, she would struggle to meet the people who came to visit her, but as her illness became more and more serious, she basically disappeared from outsiders.

Now that Tan Rui is let in, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to her.

After Tan Rui came in, she first stopped outside and said, "I'm cold, don't go to the fourth girl first, and then go in when the warmth comes." ”

She was so considerate and polite, Xiao Qingqing's mother and daughter couldn't help but nod when they heard it.

Tan Rui and the Xiao family have frequent contacts, just because her second sister Tan Ying and Xiao Qingqing are the best close friends in the boudoir.

The two of them talk about everything, and they are even closer than sisters.

Tan Rui also occasionally came to Xiao's house with Tan Ying, and later Tan Ying committed suicide, Xiao Qingqing was greatly saddened and closed for a month.

At that time, Tan Rui frequently came to comfort her, so she became a frequent visitor to Xiao's Mansion.

Xiao Qingqing remembered that she was Tan Ying's sister, and Tan Ying loved her very much when she was alive.

Second, Tan Rui is indeed very careful and clever, so although she can't be a confidant, she doesn't dislike her.

In the past six months when she was sick, Tan Rui often came to visit, and Xiao Qingqing would see her as long as she could.

After a while, Tan Rui warmed up and entered the inner room.

I asked the Qin family to say goodbye first, rushed to the bedside and looked at Xiao Qingqing and said, "Sister, I haven't seen you for a few days, why have you lost weight again." ”

Xiao Qingqing sighed carefully and said: "I'm afraid that my illness will not get better, it's good that you often come to see me, and I always see one side and one side less." ”

As soon as she said this, the Qin family on the side was heartbroken, and reprimanded with tears: "What do you say about life and death at a young age, those imperial doctors have said that as long as it is past the winter solstice, it will be fine." ”

Tan Rui was also busy saying: "Sister Xiao, you are just a patient who is anxious, in my opinion, there will be nothing wrong." ”

"Why comfort me," Xiao Qingqing smiled: "My own body knows that it is better to die happily than to be tortured so much." ”

Qin Shi couldn't help it anymore, tears fell, and he hurriedly wiped them with a handkerchief.

Among her daughters, Xiao Qingqing is the smartest and most sensible, and now that she is like this, she knows that most of them are not very good, but she doesn't want to admit it in her heart.

"Actually, I've always wondered in my heart, what did your second sister Yingying find out about back then, if she really knows after death, I must ask her." Xiao Qingqing said faintly.

Her whole person was so thin that she lost her appearance, and there was no beauty at all, only a pair of eyes became bigger and darker, like an ancient well in the deep forest, quiet and dark and cold.

Tan Rui couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly smiled to cover up: "Sister, don't make this kind of joke, yin and yang have different paths, and it will be a hundred years before you ask." You are a noble man, and you will never be fine. ”

The Qin family was relieved a lot by Tan Rui's words, and couldn't help but praise her: "Good boy, you're right." In the future, you have to come often and talk to Qingqing more. ”

"Auntie, in fact, I have always had an idea in my heart, but I don't dare to say it for fear of being presumptuous." Tan Rui rubbed her clothes belt with an embarrassed face, and stopped talking.

"You say," Qin hurriedly said, "Don't worry, but you won't get out of what you say." ”

"I'm thinking that Sister Qingqing's illness has been bad, and even the imperial doctor is helpless," Tan Rui looked worried, looking really worried about Xiao Qingqing: "So there are some things that should not be said and said."

I also know that a few days ago, Mrs. Xiao drove Aunt Che out of the mansion, blaming her for not talking about strange forces.

But I thought, nothing is as important as Sister Qingqing's life. ”

When she said this, the Qin family not only did not blame, but trusted her even more.

If she didn't really care about Xiao Qingqing, how could she take the risk of saying such a thing.

"My son, I won't tell you, I used to think so, but the master insisted on not allowing it, and I couldn't help it." The Qin clan no longer treats Tan Rui as an outsider: "You know, he hates those warlocks the most. ”

Tan Rui pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes were as bright as fireflies in the dark night, and she was confused: "I will guarantee you a person, as long as she is willing to come, Taifu will not object." ”

"Who?" Qin Shi hurriedly asked.

"The five girls of the Zhiyong Mansion," Tan Rui said, "The girl's name is Yining." ”

"She?" Xiao Qingqing couldn't help but wonder: "Why have I never heard that she can catch demons?" ”

"She doesn't know spells," Tan Rui covered her mouth and smiled: "The reason why I mentioned her is because she is bold, dares to fight tigers and kill vicious dogs, and once rescued the nine girls of the Yan family in the sea of fire."

I thought to myself, such a person must have a very heavy evil aura on his body, don't they all say that gods and ghosts are afraid of evil people?

My sister's daughter, of course, can't let those people from the three religions and nine streams come to her.

But Wei Yining is a young lady in the public mansion after all, and she only said that she came to visit the patient, and left her in the mansion for a few days, with her by her side, maybe her sister's illness will be cured. ”

Qin groaned, his daughter is now so sick that she can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

No one can tell whether she is really sick or evil, but as a mother, as long as there is hope, she must try with all her might.

After all, now Xiao Qingqing has reached the point where the medicine stone is ineffective,

What Tan Rui said is very reasonable, Wei Yining's background is also noble, and she is also a girl who has not left the cabinet, so there will be nothing wrong with letting her come to the house.

If it is really the evil qi in her body that can drive away evil spirits, then of course it is the best.

Taking a step back, even if it didn't play a role, it was just a good way to send her out of the house, and there would be no loss to anyone.

"In that case, I'll go to the Zhiyong Mansion tomorrow," Qin said, "Personally invite that fifth girl." ”
