CHAPTER XIX
My throat still didn't improve, and Qi Ran gradually gave up, but after giving up, he seemed to be doubly good to me.
Under He Ru's "treatment", Xu Fengyi's body has improved greatly, and the theory of grounding and recuperation no longer takes effect.
Every few days, she would come to the Ejiao Pavilion to talk to me, probably to talk about her relationship with Qi Ran when she was a child, or to bring a sewing basket to me to embroider a purse, saying that it was to give it to Qi Ran.
I didn't understand what Xu Fengyi meant at first, so I didn't stop it. It's just that later, she ran more and more diligently, sometimes pretending to bring me tea and water, and by the way, put medicine in my cup.
…… Did you really hurt me and even thought of using medicine on me?
In short, they are not fatal but very painful poisons, and I can not drink them without drinking them, and if I drink them, I can quickly concoct the antidote.
Because there is nothing wrong with my body, if I sue Qi Ran, Xu Fengyi should not be punished heavily. So I wanted to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth, and when I went to He Ru to get poisonous weeds, I was actually sued by the maid next to Xu Fengyi in front of Qi Ran, saying that I had a private relationship with a foreign man.
Qi Ran came over to ask me in a panic, I shook my head, explaining that I just wanted to ask if my voice was good, and I also wanted to marry him as an able-bodied person.
Qi Ran breathed a sigh of relief and reiterated: "I said that even if Ejiao can't speak for the rest of my life, I am willing to marry you and be good to you for the rest of my life." ”
I nodded and smiled.
A few days after it was cleaned, Xu Fengyi ran to the Ejiao Pavilion by herself, saying that she was here to make amends: "Sister, last time the maid next to me was ignorant, so Brother Ran misunderstood my sister, and I have already punished her." ”
She looked at me cautiously: "Sister won't blame me, right?" ”
I took her hand and shook my head with a sincere smile.
Xu Fengyi was visibly relieved.
I gestured to her, saying that I had been working hard to make a living all these years, and I really didn't have the opportunity to learn embroidery, and when I got married to Qi Ran, I wanted to wrap a sachet for him in person, and the embroidery on the sachet was on it, so I asked her.
Xu Fengyi agreed, took the needle and thread and fabric I handed over, and began to think about how to put the needle.
She first embroidered a rough sample of a mandarin duck playing in the water to show me, and I couldn't help but nod my head in praise, so she took the scissors and prepared to cut out a piece of cloth to make a sachet.
I slammed forward just in time, and my arm was immediately cut by scissors, and there was a trickle of blood running down my face.
Xu Fengyi was stunned, got up and stammered, "Sister...... Sister, what are you doing? ”
It's nothing, I thought about it again and again, I still can't use medicine to harm people, so let's settle for the next best thing and choose this method.
I covered my wounds, took two steps back, knocked over a few chairs, sat on the floor, and made a loud noise.
The maid who was waiting outside the door ran in first, and when she saw the blood red all over the ground, she screamed in surprise.
Qi Ran then strode in, and when he saw me, his face immediately turned pale, and he rushed to me and called me: "Ejiao, what's wrong with you!" ”
I leaned on his arms, staring at Xu Fengyi, my mouth grinning into an aggrieved arc, and I cried silently.
Qi Ran's eyes were scarlet, and she glared at Xu Fengyi, but she still didn't react: "No, I didn't do it, Brother Ran, you have to believe me!" ”
She forgot that she was also holding a pair of blood-stained sharp scissors.
Qi Ran picked me up and turned around to send me to the courtyard where He Ru lived. When he was about to go out, he stopped and said to Xu Fengyi: "I knew that you hated Ejiao, but I didn't expect you to act so viciously. Go back to your yard as soon as possible and stay obediently, if Ejiao has three long and two short, I will definitely ask you! ”
I turned my face to Xu Fengyi and smiled at her.
There are still three days before my wedding with Qi Ran.
I won't let anyone else have a chance to ruin our wedding.
