This happened two days ago, Qiao Yunhua pulled several carts of white roses to Shen Mansion on a whim, threatening to confess to Shen Qiang, the flowers were densely packed in the garden, he was an amorous young master, and he liked to play tricks the most, so after tossing it like this, Shen Qiang Rose would not take it to heart.
At this moment, when Han Wan'er mentioned it, he smiled reluctantly, turned around and got into the car.
The car sped all the way through the city, and soon into the city, because it was early in the morning, the wide streets were not bustling with traffic, and the roads were lined with golden leaves.
The car turned into the alley, and there was a hawker at the mouth of the alley selling breakfast, Lin Sidong stopped the car, Shen Qiangrose got out of the car, and walked straight into the alley.
The alleys are narrow and cramped, the moisture mixed with the mildew is heavy, the ground is uneven, and everything here is frozen like the old time, and it is still the old everything.
Qiao Yunhua waited leisurely at the dilapidated staircase, saw her come over, and said casually, "You are really slow enough." As he spoke, he casually glanced out, saw that the car had already driven out of the alley, and suddenly added meaningfully, "You are really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." ”
Shen Qiangrose ignored the meaning of his words, and quietly followed him up the stairs, making a "squeak" sound every time she walked the wooden ladder, with traces of years of precipitation. The two of them quickly went up to the second floor one after the other, and there was only a small protruding house, which was dilapidated and unpresentable.
A maid opened the door, and the room was dark and damp, with no sunlight in sight. Shen Qiangrose vaguely saw a woman lying on the bed in the inner bedroom, emaciated and only skinny.
Qiao Yunhua was inconvenient to go in, so she said to Shen Qiangrose, "You go in." ”
Shen Qiangrose glanced at him and saw that his expression was solemn, but in an instant, she laughed again and said, "Why are you looking at me like this?" It's like they've never seen me. ”
Shen Qiangrose saw that he was about to laugh again, so she walked in quickly. The person on the bed was looking up at her, and his young face was pale and haggard, but he tried his best to pull the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said, "Rose, I thought you wouldn't come." This person is Shen Pingsheng's third aunt, I haven't seen her for a few months, Shen Qiangrose didn't expect her to be so sick.
She sat on the edge of the bed, saw that the third aunt was too thin, and said guiltily: "Third aunt, I'm really sorry." If Qiao Yunhua hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that you were killed like this. ”
The third aunt smiled too relievedly, and said: "I was going to leave, and then I wanted to bring you a letter after I left, but that girl was so ruthless that she actually locked me up, if it weren't for Young Master Qiao, I'm afraid I would have died." ”
As she spoke, she observed Shen Qiangrose's expression, and saw that her expression was calm, and then continued: "You only think she is your mother's niece, I used to stay with your father, but I always saw her looking for your father...... I didn't know it at the time, thinking that my wife had something to ask her to talk about. ”
She sighed faintly and continued: "Once they suddenly quarreled, I heard Han Wan'er calling the old man. That time I was not careful enough, and she found out, and not long after that, the master was imprisoned, and the lady also went...... I don't know what she had in mind, but she caught me this time and asked me for a token from your father, but how did I know......"
Shen Qiangrose looked at the third aunt in disbelief, she remembered that after her mother died, Han Guan'er turned over her things many times, and put chronic poison in the medicine she drank, if Lin Bo hadn't found out and secretly replaced the medicine, she would have died a long time ago.
She has never been able to figure out the reason why Han Wan'er harmed her, but now that she thinks about it, she has such a relationship with Han Wan'er...... When she thought of her mother, she felt a chill.
Seeing her pale face, the third aunt hurriedly held her hand, lowered her voice and said: "Rose, I won't hide it from you, since your father died, there are more than one or two staring at you, in the past, your father was a target, he had to stay away from you in order to protect you and your mother, only the less you know, the safer." ”
Shen Qiangrose looked at her in a trance, as if she had lost the ability to speak for a moment, and the third aunt knew that she was difficult to accept for a while, so she looked at her with pity for a long time.
Then he said, "I was never allowed to ask more about your father's affairs." Once he drank too much, but he said a lot of things, what Fusang, what tokens. He also mentioned the Seven Lesser ...... Now that you have Young Master Qiao by your side to protect you, you have to pay attention everywhere. ”
It has been raining heavily for several days in Jinling, and the sky is gloomy. Heavy rain washed the entire city for several days, and in the dense rain curtain, the green hills became hazy, and the dead trees became wet.
The weather is rare and sunny on this day, just in time for Han Wan'er's holiday, early in the morning clamoring to go to Daishan to play, Liu's mother saw the weather, and kept chattering, persuading them not to go up the mountain. Lin Bo also persuaded Shen Qiang Rose not to go up the mountain on the grounds that the weather was good and bad.
Shen Qiangrose saw it in her eyes, but she smiled indifferently, she was sitting on the sofa in the hall reading a book, Han Wan'er saw that she ignored herself, so she asked, "Cousin, what book are you reading?" ”
Shen Qiangrose didn't raise her head, but said: "A Russian novel, it's very interesting, it tells the story of sisters who grew up together since childhood and finally turned against each other. ”
Han Wan'er laughed nonchalantly and said: "What's so good about this, this kind of story knows the ending if you think about it, but the good is still good, and the bad is still bad in the end, and there is nothing new." ”
Shen Qiangrose closed the book and said, "I'm also bored, so I'll just go to Daishan with you to play." ”
Han Wan'er was very happy and went to dress up. After Lin Bo found out, although he was worried, he couldn't talk about it, so he only sighed and instructed Shen Qiangrose, "Miss, since you are going, I can't stop you, but you are careful." ”
Shen Qiangrose comforted him, "Lin Bo, I always want to know what she is for, and these masks should be torn up." ”
After Shen Qiangrose was dressed neatly, she looked in the mirror for a long time before taking Yunqing out, Han Wan'er was already waiting in the car, Lin Sidong glanced at her and opened the car door for her.
Shen Qiangrose smiled at him with relief before getting into the car and sitting down. The Shen family was originally built on the halfway waist of Daishan, so the drive was only half an hour, and the car was unusually quiet on the way, and the two sisters were not interested in talking to each other, but it seemed that the autumn mood had faded, and even people's emotions had become tired.
The car turned right up the mountain, it was a wide asphalt road, surrounded by mountains on the left and right, the morning light spread out through the sparse branches and leaves, and the withered yellow color shadow was enough to reach the sky, lined with the blue sky, everything in this late autumn was only warm.
Near the mountain, from the main road to the winding road, it is still an asphalt road, one side is a row of Western villas, the other side is the green mountain stream, far away, you can see the waterfall of the mountain flying beads splashing jade.
This area has always been the villa of Jinling's high-ranking officials and rich rooms, the car has been driven to the inside, and there is another guard guard, after the release, it has been driven in, it is a scattered single-family villa, and there are more Danfeng like fire, beautiful.
