Wen Ying slept very deeply this night, and in a trance, she returned to the past.

There is a pear blossom tree in the courtyard of Wenfu, and every time it blooms, the fragrance is fragrant, the breeze blows, and the white petals float all over the sky. I heard that this pear tree is 100 years old, with a thick trunk and luxuriant branches, many of which have crossed the high wall and stretched out of the wall.

And across the wall, is the Cang General's Mansion.

There is a small pavilion under the pear tree, where General Cang Qingfeng often drank with Lord Wen when he was alive.

Cang Xuelan also has a younger sister, named Cang Xueyao, when she was a child, General Cang came to Wen's house as a guest, and she would always bring this pair of brothers and sisters. The elder brother Cang Xuelan sat in the front hall with them, and the younger sister Cang Xueyao followed Mrs. Wen to play in the inner house.

That girl has been proud since she was a child, and when she first met, she said that she was strong in martial arts, and even her brother was not an opponent, and she had to be ridden under her every day as a cow and a horse.

"Xiao Xueyao, don't think that your brother I'm not here, you can brag about it, when did you beat me, why don't I know." Cang Xuelan confronted Cang Xueyao through a screen.

"Yesterday! I beat you yesterday! ”

"That's your trick!"

"Soldiers don't get tired of deceit."

These two brothers and sisters are arguing with each other through a screen.

Mrs. Wen smiled and led Cang Xuelan from behind the screen, "How can you two brothers and sisters talk, and you still have to be separated by the screen?" ”

"My father said that the inner courtyard is full of female dependents, and I am not allowed to come in casually."

"It's all children, so it's so particular."

Xiao Wenying tilted her head to look, only to see Mrs. Wen leading a little doll made of pink and jade, she looked at Xue Yao, and then at Xue Lan, and said secretly in her heart: Sure enough, they are twin brothers and sisters, and they really look exactly the same.

The two of them are lively and active, while Wen Ying is weak and weak, and most of the time, they sit in the gazebo and watch the two brothers and sisters fight.

They argue whether Xue Lan looks like a girl or Xue Yao looks like a boy, and in the end, it will turn into martial arts.

Sometimes, they will secretly change each other's clothes and dress up as each other, the twins already have a heart, imitating each other's movements, which is even more vivid, not only Wen Ying, but even General Cangqingfeng himself can't tell the difference.

Because of knowing these two brothers and sisters, Wen Ying gradually became cheerful.

On her fifteenth birthday, Cang Xueyao came to congratulate her with gifts, and after she came, she used the excuse of Mrs. Kaiwen to sit down mysteriously and took out a jade bracelet from her arms.

"This is my brother gave you, although the condition is not very good, but this is bought with the money he earned as a recruit in the Fenzhou military camp, now the war is tight, he can't come back, so I have to send this bracelet home, let me give it to you." Cang Xueyao handed her the bracelet, "That guy has a bad brain, what is not good to buy, he has to buy a bracelet, from Fenzhou to the capital, all the way back, the bracelet inside is broken in three pieces, and I have to pay for it to help him remedy it." Originally, my mother-in-law said that the gold inlaid jade is very good, and I asked me to send it to the craftsman to inlay these broken jade with gold, but I know that you don't like gold, so I found someone to pick it up with wood, you look at the color carved on the wood, do you like it? ”

Wen Ying held the table and couldn't put it down, "Thank you for your trouble, I like it very much." ”

Cang Xueyao propped her chin and winked at her, "Do you like this wood?" Or do you like this jade bracelet? ”

Wen Ying's face flushed, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, my mother died early, and my father didn't renew the strings later, so naturally no one helped me with my brother's marriage, and my father was a wooden head, so I had to make more snacks for myself." Cang Xueyao looked at her and said bluntly: "Sister Wen Ying, what do you think of my brother?" ”

Wen Ying was about to burn her ears, she lowered her head and said nothing.

"My brother said in the letter, let me help him ask you, what do you think of him?" Cang Xueyao waited for a while, and when she saw that Wen Ying still didn't speak, she said to herself: "Sister Wen Ying doesn't speak, then I'll treat you as if you don't like him, go home now, and tell him not to be sentimental." ”

"Wait." Wen Ying stood up, entered her boudoir, and took out a handkerchief from the dresser, on which was embroidered with a bouquet of begonia flowers. She handed the handkerchief to Cang Xueyao, "This...... You help me send it to him. ”

Cang Xueyao solemnly put away the handkerchief, "My brother owes me a big favor this time, Sister Wen Ying, if you become my sister-in-law in the future, you must remember to help me Zhang Luo a good family matter, at least the other party can't be an embroidered pillow, no matter what, you have to beat me, no one who is stronger than me, why should you be my husband." ”

Wen Ying smiled: "Then our second Miss Cang, I'm afraid we won't be able to get married." ”

Cang Xueyao smiled slyly, "Then you should go down this sister-in-law?" Without waiting for Wen Ying to attack, she immediately ran out.

Later, Wen Ying heard that General Cang, who was far away in Fenzhou, didn't know why, so he was furious, personally pressed Cang Xuelan, rewarded him with thirty military sticks, and beat him all over the military camp.

After the victory of the war, General Cang's squad returned to the court, and prepared a generous gift that night and came to Wenfu to propose marriage.

In the evening, Wen Zhaochu took his daughter's hand and said earnestly for a long time, "The three generations of generals of the Cang family, the heirs are thin, each of them died on the battlefield, and they are full of loyalty, I admire them."

But do you know what kind of life the lady of Cangfu is living? You see your husband dressed in armor and fight on the battlefield, which may be three or four months, or a year or two, during this time, you can only stay in this empty house, day after day, year after year, and finally hope to bring him back, but after a few months, you will have to send him out again.

The battlefield is dangerous, no one dares to pat his chest and say that he will definitely come back, if he dies on the battlefield, what will you do for the rest of your life?

General Cang's wife was waiting to give birth in the capital, General Cang said that he would definitely rush back and accompany his wife, but at that time he encountered a strong enemy, he and Dahao fought for several months and still could not win, so he had no choice but to write to me, hoping that I could help him take care of his wife and children, I tried my best to invite the imperial doctor to deliver Mrs. Cang, but Mrs. Cang's body was too weak, and after giving birth to a pair of children, she died in childbirth. The emperor didn't want General Cang, who was far away on the front line, to be distracted, so I was not allowed to tell him, so I had to respond, and when General Cang returned to the court victoriously, what I saw was Cangfu full of mourning cloths......

Ying'er, before you really marry the Cang family, you must think clearly about whether you can endure such a life. ”

After hearing this, Wen Ying knelt in front of Wen Zhaochu and said firmly: "Father, I don't know what the future holds, but I am willing, and I will never regret it." Even if it is really as you said, I only have a few years of fate with him, or even shorter, as long as I can stay with him, my daughter will be satisfied. ”

"Ying'er? Ying'er? Can you hear me? ”

Wen Ying opened her eyes slightly, and saw Cang Xuelan's anxious face, seeing that she was awake, Cang Xuelan breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Don't be afraid, we have already caught the person who poisoned her, you take care of it, don't worry about other things." ”

Wen Ying's fingers moved, and she grabbed Cang Xuelan's sleeve with great effort, "I can't figure it out......"

"What?"

"I can't figure it out...... We're obviously in love, and I know it's not my own feelings, but why? Why? ”

Cang Xuelan lowered her head.

"My father said that he wanted to withdraw from the marriage, and you immediately returned my birthday sticker, but you didn't return my handkerchief, nor did you ask me to return the bracelet that was broken into three petals......"

At this time, a pair of slender hands pulled Cang Xuelan's sleeves out of her hands, and a charming woman whispered, "Miss Wen, you have just recovered from a serious illness, you should have a good rest." ”

Wen Ying looked up and saw a woman crouching in front of her bed, smiling gently at her. Bright Rose is talking about this skin.

“…… You are? ”

"Me? The little woman's name is Shui Banxia, and she is General Cang's ...... Concubine. ”

Wen Ying's eyes instantly dimmed.

It turned out that this was the Qinglou woman he didn't hesitate to withdraw from the marriage and put it in the house, and sure enough, ...... Maggi.

Wen Ying turned around and closed her eyes, unwilling to say another word.

Cang Xuelan stood up and said, "You have a good rest, I'll come to see you tomorrow." ”

Wen Ying didn't reply to him, until she heard the sound of the door closing, and she finally couldn't restrain herself from lying on the pillow and crying bitterly.
