Dark room, a few points of fragrance, three points of calm, seven points of peace of mind.

Su Xiaolian raised her right hand, bursts of water beads fell from her right hand, and sighed, she was still too kind, she didn't know why she would agree to Duan Long's request and live in Duan's house for a few days, whether it was for the sake of her mother, or for the sake of her middle-aged white hair.

"Can you go out? I don't need any service. ”

There was a maid standing by the barrel, Su Xiaolian had always liked to be alone, but now that there was a maid by her side, she was uncomfortable.

"This is what the master of the house commanded, let the slave and maid serve you. If you insist on not letting the slave serve you, the slave will be kicked out of the house. ”

Su Xiaolian had a headache for a while, she had always been unable to refuse other people's requests, not to mention that this was just an inconsequential request.

"Then you can wipe my back for me."

Xiaohuan heard Su Xiaolian's relief, and finally let go of his hanging heart. She held a towel and gently wiped Su Xiaolian's back.

Her movements stopped, and she was momentarily alarmed. I thought that such a fairy-like woman should have a clean and flawless body. She didn't expect that the girl had so many scars on her back.

Even Xiaohuan saw a deep scar on the right side of the abdomen, terrifying, it was hard for her to imagine what she had experienced when she was young, there were hundreds of scars on her back, and how many hardships were hidden under this girl's delicate face.

"What's wrong?" Su Xiaolian obviously felt that the maid's movements stopped, looked at the traces on her body, and understood,

"Do you think I'm disgusting?" Su Xiaolian said calmly, she is used to it, after all, others may not be able to bear her criss-crossing scars. Indeed, the scars on his body really can't bear to look at directly.

"Xiaohuan doesn't dare, I just think that Miss you ......"

"What do you think is wrong with me?"

"......" Xiaohuan didn't say that word after all, put the towel gently in the wooden bucket, and walked out of the room silently. Su Xiaolian didn't keep her, she left, but she felt relaxed, gently scooped up a basin of water with a small basin, and went down from the beginning, she wanted to calm herself down.

The drops of water dripped down the waist-length hair into the wooden barrel, Su Xiaolian stood up, wiped her body clean and sat cross-legged on the bed, now that she has reached the fourth layer of the Acquired Realm, she still needs to work hard to condense her own Xuan Qi, Su Xiaolian also hopes that she can break through the golden pill as soon as possible and eliminate the scars on her body, after all, there is no woman in this world who does not love beauty.

"How about arranging what you do?" Duan Long was anxious when he saw Xiaohuan come out, he had been waiting outside for a long time, in order to find out Su Xiaolian's situation.

Xiaohuan sighed slightly: "Little Miss, she is so pitiful, there are not many scars on her body, and there are even a few scars that can be seen deep in the bones, although she has healed, she can still feel that Miss is actually in pain." ”

When she crossed the scar just now, she obviously felt Su Xiaolian's body trembling slightly, and it was obvious that the scar was still faintly painful.

"Alas, I ......" Duan Long wanted to say something, but he wanted to stop talking.

"You take good care of the little lady, alas, Xiaolian, the child and Yuqin have suffered too much, the old man owes them too much, and the old man is afraid that he will not be able to repay it in his life!"

Duan Long looked at the peach blossom tree in the yard, and the peach blossom was his daughter's favorite flower. Even picked a branch before leaving, and now this peach blossom is the sustenance of his spirit.

Duan Long opened a portrait, and there was a little girl in the painting, which was painted by Duan Yuqin before he left his house, a six-year-old child sitting in front of a peach blossom tree holding hands with a beautiful woman, and the smile on his face almost overflowed the painting.

"Thoughts, our Yuqin is gone. I didn't protect her well."

Duan Long picked a peach blossom and left the courtyard with a gloomy expression, he didn't protect his daughter after all.

Is this where she used to live?

Su Xiaolian, under the leadership of the housekeeper, came to the house where her mother had stayed before, and before she entered the room, Su Xiaolian's eyes looked at the peach blossom tree on the side of the house, and sighed in her heart. This is the mother's favorite peach blossom tree before her death, the mother also made peach blossom cakes for herself before her death, and on her birthday, her mother handed her favorite peach blossom to herself, that was when she couldn't even eat.

Now that she is standing in front of her mother's favorite peach blossom tree, she must be very envious. Lian'er and Jilu, this time Lian'er came to make peach blossom cakes for her mother.

"This is the courtyard where the young lady used to live, and the things in it are all preserved as when the young lady left, and the old slave often comes in to clean it, as if the young lady is still there!"

Wanfu's eyes are also red, he used to be Duan Yuqin's housekeeper, and he almost watched her grow up, just like his own daughter. Now that he heard the sad news that the young lady had died, he got drunk last night and denounced the injustice of heaven.

Su Xiaolian gently pushed open the door, and the door creaked open. Su Xiaolian didn't smell the stale smell in the air, it seems that this place is indeed cleaned frequently.

There is nothing special in the room, a small bed, a desk, a cupboard, and there is almost no special decoration in the whole room.

"Here's the division? Old Man Duan didn't say anything? Su Xiaolian looked at everything in the room playfully, this whole Duan family is really interesting.

"When the old man saw that the young lady was so poor here, he had a fierce quarrel with the elders of the clan." Wanfu smiled bitterly.

"Elders of the clan, presumably they are going to jump out too." Su Xiaolian was thoughtful, her eyes gradually moved to a painting on the wall, and her eyes lit up.

The woman was wearing a long crimson dress, with a golden track tied into a big bow around her waist, her long hair hanging down her waist, looking slender and green, holding a paper umbrella in her hand, she smiled shallowly, her head was leaning to the side, the whole person was like a fairy from the fairy world, full of fairy energy, obviously another Su Xiaolian.

Is this a portrait of my mother before her death? I've almost forgotten about it. When I was in that small town, although my mother was also a beauty, she didn't have such a dehydrated hibiscus.

"Do I look like my mother?"

"The little lady and the young lady are simply carved out of the same mold, so the master can recognize the little lady at the banquet."

Su Xiaolian looked at this painting, but she was thoughtful. My mother asked a painter to paint such a picture, but my mother was holding a paper umbrella, why did she just stand aside, as if there was a person standing next to her. If there is still a person standing next to her, is that person her father? Did the artist not draw him in, or did the artist not see him at all?

Su Xiaolian couldn't say anything about her father, all she wanted to do now was to improve her cultivation, go to her father, and then beat him hard, asking him why he abandoned his mother and why she and her mother suffered so much.

"Uncle Wanfu, do you know that there was still someone next to my mother when she painted this picture?"

"No, no, little miss, the old slave still remembers this matter, when he was painting, the old slave was by the side of the young lady, but the young lady insisted on painting like this, and the old slave asked the painter to paint like this according to the young lady."

Su Xiaolian fell into deep thought, and sure enough, as she guessed, there was still a person standing next to her mother, and her mother should have taken her mother away from the Duan family back then. It's really interesting, it seems that after returning to the Northern Regions, I will go back to the town where I live to find out, what happened back then, and why my father disappeared, there are too many mysteries.

Ye Jun, uncle? Duan Long, grandfather? The people of that town were forcibly modified by the monks, and the person who changed the memories was his own father? Su Xiaolian should have thought about it a long time ago, why her uncle's surname was Ye and her mother-in-law told her that her name was Duan Yuqin, she should have thought of it a long time ago.

"Knock knock!"

Su Xiaolian heard a knock on the door, and then walked in a small house, watching the little girl come in, Su Xiaolian was a little confused, are the servants of the Duan family so arrogant? The owner is still in the room, so he dares to break into the room directly.

"Miss Su, Elder Duan Feng invites you to go to the clan meeting."

Seeing the little girl respectfully invite herself out, Su Xiaolian's mood was a little better, and it seemed that the people who had separated from the family couldn't help but jump out. I just don't know what kind of tricks I will come up with to deal with myself at that time.

With Wanfu, Su Xiaolian followed the little guy all the way to the lobby, looking at some of the people sitting on it, Su Xiaolian felt funny for a while, the battle here is really not small.

"Here, let's sit down."

Su Xiaolian was a little surprised, it was not her cheap grandfather Duan Long who sat in the first seat, but another person was seated, and her grandfather could only sit sideways, which was very interesting.

"Since the little guy said that the clan will meet, then why don't you see other clansmen? And the junior sitting in the seat of the council hall is too unreasonable, right? "Su Xiaolian is really not interested in the Duan family, these old men are playing conspiracy tactics one by one, all of them are old foxes, and they really think that they are ignorant children?

After listening to Su Xiaolian's words, Duan Feng, who was the leader, did not show any look of shame and anger, he was a little strange, those juniors in the clan in the past were invited to discuss matters and give them seats to sit, which one was not sincere and grateful.

"This meeting is only for you, there is no need for others to come."

Su Xiaolian didn't have a good impression of the elders of the Duan family, on the contrary, she liked the Su family more, although Su Qian was often annoyed with her, but Su Qian was a good elder, which Su Xiaolian couldn't deny, they wouldn't come to play some dishonorable things like the elders of the Duan family.

In fact, the elder group of the Su family also disdains to play conspiracy, their Su family is the strongest in the continent, and no one can trample on their glory.

"Tell me, if there's anything you can tell me about."

Su Xiaolian pulled out the chair and sat on it, not caring about the gloomy faces of some elders, Su Xiaolian heard the eldest elder say that the Su family can't bow down wherever they go, and they have to maintain the glory of the family wherever they go, and now that they are being troubled by the Duan family, Su Xiaolian naturally won't make a low posture.

"You junior is so arrogant, your mother didn't discipline you well, sure enough, mortals are mortals, what good children can be taught."

Duan Long's face sank, and his gaze shifted from Su Xiaolian's face to the elder who spoke, and that elder was Duan Qing, the elder of the obviously split family. The elders of the family all lowered their heads and did not dare to speak, although the strongest person in the clan was now Duan Feng, who was dividing the family, they did not dare to touch Duan Long's anger.

Duan Qing seemed to feel Duan Long's gaze, and he also retracted his head in disdain, not daring to speak, although he was protected by Duan Feng now, it was not necessarily necessary to go out of this door.

"Hehehe. Elder, it seems that your parents are not very good. ”

Duan Qing's face changed, and the mysterious qi in his body burst out instantly, staring at Su Xiaolian angrily, this junior actually laughed at himself for not cultivating.

Su Xiaolian's hair was blown around by the Xuan Qi, but he also looked at him fearlessly, and he was also a little puzzled for a while, why did Su Xiaolian face herself so fearlessly, and where did she come from to dare to disobey herself.
