The person who came was Xiao Yu'er, the personal maid of Xianchen. Xiao Yu'er couldn't say a word when she cried, so Mrs. Xiao had to hurry to Jingyuan, and Mrs. Qiao cared about Xianchen and went with her.

As soon as he entered Jingyuan, he smelled a crying and grabbed the ground, Xian Chen lay on the bed with a pale face, covered in cold sweat, fine and dense beads of sweat wet his hair, his clothes were also wet and sticky to his body, the white skirt was soaked in blood, it was very scary to look at, Aunt Jiang took a handkerchief and wiped her tears beside her, but fortunately, Grandma Sun was on the side and did not fall down.

The doctor was prescribing prescriptions in the side hall, the doctor was stopping bleeding and bandaging the dust, and the maid was handing gauze and hot water next to her, making a mess. Mrs. Xiao said distressedly: "Why did it happen like this? ”

At this moment, everyone noticed that Mrs. Xiao came in, and hurriedly saluted, Mrs. Xiao waved her hand and said, "That's it, how did you get this step?" ”

Mama Sun gently patted Aunt Jiang's arm, took off her hand, knelt down and returned to Mrs. Xiao and said, "Mrs. Qiyu, it's all the negligence of the slaves and maids. There is a fig in the back yard, and the lady knows that it climbs up along the vine of the old locust tree. The night before the wind blew down a lot, and the fresh fruit season of figs was short, the third lady couldn't care about her serious illness and was recovering from her illness, so she insisted on going up to pick it for her wife, and accidentally fell down......"

Mrs. Xiao glanced at the fine dust on the bed and said to Mrs. Qiao: "This stupid child, when he is sick, still thinks that I love to eat this bite. ”

Mrs. Qiao also sighed and said: "The third lady is a filial child, Mrs. Xiao should not blame herself too much, the child is also happy for you to do this." ”

"How can I not know her mind, and why should I not have her in my heart?" Mrs. Xiao couldn't regret it and said, "Today, Mrs. Qiao, you are worried, or ......"

Mrs. Qiao naturally knew the meaning of Mrs. Xiao's words, and before Mrs. Xiao finished speaking, she interrupted: "I treat the third lady as my own daughter, it is natural to worry, let's listen to what the doctor has to say first." ”

Saying that, the doctor had already prescribed the medicine, handed it to Grandma Sun and instructed: "Go and grab the medicine quickly, give it to the young lady, and you can relieve some pain immediately." ”

Aunt Jiang reluctantly held back her tears, and bowed slightly to the doctor: "Doctor, how is the little girl strong?" ”

As soon as the doctor looked up, he saw a lady with teary eyes and a solemn face, and this melancholy gesture did not affect her beauty in the slightest, but made me feel pity. Unconsciously her heartbeat accelerated, her face turned red for a while, and Mrs. Xiao said "um" before she came back to her senses: The injury is quite serious, and you may be able to walk on the ground for three or five months. ”

The crowd was shocked.

After the injury was treated, Mrs. Xiao ordered the doctor and the doctor to go out, and Mama Sun asked carefully about the precautions and taboos. Aunt Jiang saw that there were outsiders again, so she reluctantly retreated. Mrs. Qiao didn't want to see a concubine in her eyes before, but when Aunt Jiang retired, she glanced at it, and she couldn't help but be amazed that such a talented woman turned out to be an unknown concubine.

Mrs. Qiao listened to the doctor's words and did not feel that her face sank, as the saying goes, "stealing chickens does not make rice" is like this, and gave a generous gift from a yard, but in exchange for the news that the third lady was seriously injured, the gift must not be good to take back again, but the relatives did not dare to make a rash decision, one is not the time to say this, and the other is that if the third lady is really disabled, it is impossible for a high-ranking family like the Liu family to want it.

Mrs. Qiao went to the bedside and told Xianchen to have a good life, and comforted Mrs. Xiao for a while, seeing that Mrs. Xiao's heart was on Xianchen, she felt bored, and sat down for a while and went home.

Mrs. Xiao sat on the brocade in front of the bed and looked at Xian Chen, took the medicine brought by Grandma Sun, and used a soup spoon to blow it cold on the side of her mouth and feed it to Xian Chen. Xianchen obediently drank it cleanly, and Mrs. Xiao said slightly: "You kid, do you know that you are ripping my heart by doing this." ”

Of course, Xianchen knew that this was the next step, and he also knew that Mrs. Xiao would feel guilty because of this, and he felt guilty in his heart, so he didn't dare to look at Mrs. Xiao.

"Why should you risk yourself, your father has already made up his mind to protect you, and I am not a man of hard heart." Mrs. Xiao burst into tears as she spoke.

Seeing Mrs. Xiao like this, Xian Chen couldn't bear to say: "Mother is at ease, my injuries will definitely be healed, I naturally know that my father and mother love me, but if I offend the Liu family, it will inevitably affect the Yan family, so I made this decision." ”

"You do this for me, I really ......" Mrs. Xiao loves Xianchen very much in her heart, but the Yan family is not what it used to be, and the situation is tense, she did have a heart to let Xianchen marry into the Liu family in exchange for help. Seeing her think about herself like this now, she is even more remorseful in her heart. suddenly remembered something and said: "What if you recover from your injuries in March or May, and Liufu comes to propose marriage again?" You can't really lose this leg because of this, can you? ”

Xian Chen thought of Su Jinse's words, a cold and resolute look appeared in front of him, and he said unusually calmly in his heart: "Let's take one step at a time, there may be a turnaround." After speaking, she looked out the window, and wondered why she thought of him again, obviously she had only met him several times.

Mrs. Xiao was going to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, moon worship, moon appreciation and other matters, and Xianchen was very weak at this moment when she was tired and injured, so she left Jingyuan to let Xianchen rest.

Today is the day of family reunion, the most lively, every time the family banquet is noisy, the most fierce Xianchen can only sleep in the house this year, and the whole family banquet is a lot dull. After dinner, General Yan and Mrs. Xiao led everyone to the courtyard to "worship the moon". The courtyard has already set up a large incense case, which is full of all kinds of fashionable fruits and wines, and there are three Hetian jade incense burners in the middle.

General Yan stood in the center, and Mrs. Xiao, Yan Chao, Yan Lang, Yan Ming, Xiao Qiuwan and others lined up on both sides at a time, forming a "human" shape. The moon is in the sky, the moon stars are scarce, and a group of people under the night sky, each holding a stick of incense, respectfully worshiped three times, and then there are people who come to take the incense, and insert it into the incense burner in a regular manner.

After the moon festival, they will enter the side hall to eat moon cakes, drink osmanthus wine, guess lantern riddles, etc.

Aunt Jiang has rarely gone to the front yard to celebrate the festival with everyone, and this year, Xianchen was injured and admired the moon and ate moon cakes with Xianchen in the house. Mama Sun ordered someone to lift the chaise longue to the window, Xianchen could see the moon when she lay on it, and put two low tables on the side of the chair to put them together, Aunt Jiang, Mama Sun, and Xiao Yuer sat together regardless of the master and servant, laughing and having fun together, just like a family.

Aunt Jiang saw that she was asleep, and she didn't move her, she covered her with the brocade quilt, and Grandma Sun and Xiao Yu'er tiptoed into a mess of Egypt and retreated.

Xian Chen fell asleep sweetly, eating fragrant lotus paste mooncakes in his dream, and pecked them in his mouth with his fingers, and Yin Tao's small mouth sucked slightly. At this moment, the window that was closed by Xiao Yu'er before leaving suddenly opened, and a cold black-clothed figure appeared in front of the window, looking at her with heartache in his eyes.
