Mother Liu took the cloak and draped it on her, chattering, "Why doesn't Miss even wear a coat, even if it's just a few steps." But it was cold that night, and I didn't have to look back and got sick again. ”

Shen Qiangrose didn't speak, and walked slowly to the side hall. All the way to the bedroom, where the jasmine scent curls up to the tip of the nose, the room is still decorated as new. The crimson bed tent is embroidered with a picture of a hundred flowers blooming, like clusters of clouds.

There is also a double happiness word on the window lattice, there is a pair of mandarin ducks in it, the cut is vivid, but it is lonely in front of the window, as if there is not even a trace of joy.

Fang Yuyan sat on the bed and was talking to her second aunt too warmly.

When he saw her come in, he frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Shen Qiangrose sat on the edge of the bed unhurriedly and looked at her with a smile, "Didn't I hear that the young grandmother was sick, I'll come and take a look." ”

She turned to Sun Boqian on the side and asked, "Doctor Sun, is the young grandmother okay?" ”

That Sun Boqian had just checked for Fang Yuyan, and was about to carry the medicine box out at the moment, when he heard the words, he said: "The young grandmother's health is fine, but there is a lack of qi and blood, so she needs to recuperate more." ”

Shen Qiang Rose said "oh", and then listened to the second aunt say with a pleasant face: "I am also confused today, I believe the words of the little girl, I just think that Rose is not in harmony with you, and I am in a hurry to take the maid to drug you." Fortunately, it's just a false alarm, and you're fine. ”

Fang Yuyan glared at Shen Qiangrose, and said in a weird manner: "I just wondered if this matter was not simple, why did I get sick when I was so good." After saying this, seeing that Sun Boqian was about to leave, he asked, "Doctor Sun, am I really okay?" ”

Sun Boqian nodded, "Young grandma just needs to meditate and recuperate." ”

When he left, Shen Qiang Rose said, "Now the young grandmother can rest assured?" ”

Fang Yuyan ignored her, turned to Xi'er on the side, and asked, "You said that Yunqing put medicine on my plate, but it turned out to be pearl powder when I checked it?" ”

Xi'er was thinking about something else, and when she heard it, she nodded and said, "This thing is strange, if she really wants to frame her aunt and grandmother, why should she use pearl powder to do things?" ”

Shen Qiangrose said lightly: "This was originally framed, who cares what the thing is?" ”

She looked at the second aunt, "I don't know what the hell she wanted, but fortunately, this time I was wronged, but she is my maid after all, and I ask the second aunt to be able to drop her lightly." ”

The second aunt originally just came over to go through the motions, but seeing that the two of them were still fighting against each other, and then looking at Fang Yuyan, she was still arrogant and proud, and she couldn't help but let go.

She got up and said, "It's been too long, I should go back." ”

Shen Qiangrose was blessed, and when she saw the second aunt and her party leaving, the maid in the room also walked out quietly.

Shen Qiangrose said: "This play is thanks to the young grandmother, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch Yunqing." ”

Fang Yuyan smiled arrogantly, "It's over, don't say these polite words again." ”

Shen Qiangrose saw her frowning slightly, so she said: "Presumably, the young grandmother has also recognized the second aunt's face through this incident, and she will inevitably use you in the future, young grandmother, don't forget your position." ”

"Alright, you don't have to worry about it." Fang Yuyan said and waved her hand impatiently. Shen Qiangrose thought that she had deliberately cooperated with her acting in front of her second aunt just now, and couldn't help but smile, so she said, "I'm leaving, you can rest." ”

Seeing that the New Year was approaching, everything in the Overseer's Mansion was complicated, and it snowed heavily in the past two days, and the entire Jinling was invaded by wind and snow, stirring the sky cold. It was another period of national calamity, and it was undoubtedly covered with frost in the ice and snow.

It has been more than a month since the start of the war, and although Jinling is thousands of miles away, the people are still panicked, and newspapers about the war situation are overwhelming, and domestic public opinion is even more mixed. Colleges and universities prevented student activities, burned, smashed and plundered, shouted banners, and demonstrated against Fuso.

This time, Su Huiyi went to the front line, and deliberately left his close garrison team in the Overseer's Mansion to protect Shen Qiangrose, and the battle on the front line continued, and every few days, the garrison captain Fan Zicheng would report the news to Shen Qiangrose.

For several days, the battle situation was mixed, because of the terrain and weather, the two sides confronted each other in Mingyang, fought hard for several days, and each other suffered half of the casualties, and fell into a stalemate together.

Shen Qiangrose naturally hung her heart, she couldn't sleep well all day and night, as if she could see the artillery fire and corpses all over the ground as soon as she closed her eyes.

Because of the worries of the day, the people also became emaciated. This morning, Shen Qiangrose hadn't gotten up yet, and the maid came to report that the garrison captain Fan Zicheng was coming, Shen Qiangrose hurriedly changed her clothes, only to feel that her heart was about to jump to her throat, so she hurried out all the way, and when she saw Fan Zicheng, she hurriedly asked, "What's the news?" ”

Fan Zicheng is Su Huiyi's confidant, and his conversation and demeanor are the same as his, and he immediately said: "Second lady, please rest assured, Qishao has broken through Mingyang last night, Fusang can't resist it, and abandoned Mingyang to Chenzhou line, the front line is a big victory, and Qishao will come back in the near future." ”

Shen Qiangrose was relieved and sat on the sofa for a long time before thanking Fan Zicheng. Fan Zicheng said a few polite words and walked out of the house.

After breakfast, Mother Liu took Shen Qiangrose out for a walk, Shen Qiangrose couldn't, so she had to take Xiaozhu out of the yard, the two of them turned around at will, Xiaozhu didn't dare to take it lightly, always supported Shen Qiangrose, and when she crossed the verandah, she heard a noisy sound not far away.

Xiaozhu glanced in the direction and said, "It should be from the courtyard in front." ”

Shen Qiangrose remembered that the courtyard in front of her was not inhabited, so she asked, "Isn't it empty?" ”

Xiaozhu said hesitantly: "There was no one before, and I caught up with the handsome man to marry the seventh aunt, and gave this yard to the seventh aunt." ”

Shen Qiangrose thought that Han Guan'er was about to enter the door, and her heart sank for no reason, and said: "Now that the war ahead is tight, Jinling is still singing and dancing, the soldiers are bleeding on the front line, but these high-ranking officials and magnates are squeezing their heads to give gifts, and they can't wait to level the threshold!" How can you be too ostentatious at this time to marry your aunt's wife? In the end, the comfortable life has been passed for too long, and even people are ignorant. ”

Seeing this, Xiaozhu hurriedly whispered: "Auntie, don't say it again, be careful that the wall has ears!" ”

Shen Qiangrose didn't want to mention it again, looking at the courtyard in the distance, she saw people surrounded by shadows, not like they were cleaning, and they didn't know what was going on.

She was hesitating whether to go over and take a look, and saw a maid running out of the moon gate in a panic, as if she was extremely scared, and she was startled when she saw her, but fortunately, the rules were not messy, and she hurriedly bowed, and stumbled and said: "Say hello to my aunt, I have something important to tell me at this time, so I will retire first." ”

Shen Qiangrose saw that she was in a hurry, and her expression was flustered, showing that there was something important. She didn't know how to ask, so she gave a sigh of gratitude, and the maid got the order, so she ran away quickly.

She didn't know how much of a thing would happen in such a blue sky and daylight, but she was uneasy in her heart, and she didn't go forward to find out.

After a quick glance, more and more panicked, a bunch of gray-clad messengers poured out of the moon gate, they carried a stretcher in their hands, on which was vaguely lying a person, covered by a white cloth, I don't know whether it was a man or a woman, only one arm swayed diagonally, which made people's scalp tingle for no reason.

Because it was not close, Shen Qiangrose didn't see it clearly, but at first glance, she knew that it was a dead person. She only felt sour in her stomach, and she immediately couldn't stop gagging.

Seeing this, Xiaozhu hurriedly helped her to walk back, and the road was quiet and silent. When she returned to the courtyard, Shen Qiangrose's face was already pale, she was not afraid, but she was bumped into such a thing, and she inevitably muttered in her heart.

Mother Liu learned about the cause and effect from Xiaozhu, and couldn't help sighing, and said: "What is the matter with a good overseer's mansion, I don't know how many cases have been involved." Although she muttered a sentence, she was afraid that Shen Qiangrose would be frightened, so she instructed the maids in the yard not to spread nonsense.

Who thought that it would come to the outer world, the second aunt's maid came to the side room, and when she saw Shen Qiangrose, she said: "Auntie, the maid who died in the courtyard of the seventh aunt in front of her head is Yunqing, and our second aunt Taiyuan just taught her a lesson, and then sent her away." Unexpectedly, she couldn't think about it in her own heart, so she threw herself into the well. ”

The maid peeked at Shen Qiangrose and saw her sitting on the sofa, but her eyes widened in surprise when she heard the words, so the little maid continued: "According to the second wife's temperament, there is no need to tell your aunt and grandmother about this matter, but Yunqing is your maid after all, she is dead like this, so I should inform you no matter what." ”

Shen Qiangrose's face was extremely pale, as if she was afraid or surprised, but she was silent. In the end, it was Liu's mother who answered, and the maid left.

Mother Liu turned to Shen Qiangrose and saw that she was still silent and did not speak, her face was like frost and snow, and she was only frightened. couldn't help but say: "Miss, don't think about it, hey, this person has a personal fate, this is her life." ”

Shen Qiangrose looked ahead with no focus, and said softly: "At that time, I knew that Yunqing would probably not survive, she had done too many shady things, and the second aunt would not keep her." ”

Mother Liu also knows that there are many of these methods in the old courtyard of this deep house, and the second aunt is too a smiling tiger-like person, and it must be ruthless to be able to stand tall in this overseer's mansion.

She was thinking about it, but saw Shen Qiangrose smile, "Second aunt is beating me with Yunqing's death, and at this point, I don't need to swallow my anger anymore." ”

Mother Liu saw that she was sitting there very calmly, her beautiful face faded from the immaturity of the past, and her eyebrows were even more calm. A warm yellow halo was reflected on her beautiful face, and when she looked at it like this, the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were not bright at all, as if frost covered with snow, and only indifference remained.

The cold wind outside was whaling and rolling, and it was not really heard indoors, just like the sound of rain, the doors and windows rustled. Everything in this room is quiet with a hint of death, Shen Qiang Rose leaned on the sofa, slowly closed her eyes, and the night became even deeper.
