Chapter 2: Rebirth
It was still a little cold in early spring, and the green branch pushed the door in and stamped her feet coldly, "The girl hasn't woken up yet?" The fever has subsided, and then ask the doctor to take a look? ”
The cold wind that came in through the crack in the door made Su Ying shiver and slowly opened her eyes.
The sheep's horn palace lamp on the head of the bed emitted a soft light, Su Ying slowly sat up, this carved mahogany stepping bed was what she was used to sleeping in the boudoir, and the moon shadow yarn on the bed was also her favorite, and Mama Li was whispering something to the green branch with her back to her.
Green Zhi was obviously pierced through the chest by Li Shuhai with a sword and died in front of her eyes, as well as Mama Li, Mama Li is her nursing mother, who has taken care of Su Ying since she was born, and the two are a little closer than Su Ying's mother, the county lord of Anping. It's just that Mama Li was found by Li Shuhai and driven out of the house shortly after Su Ying's newlywed, and her whereabouts are unknown. But now they are all alive in front of their eyes.
Seeing her sit up, the green branch said happily: "The girl has woken up, but she feels better, and the girl has been asleep for two days and two nights, and has frightened the slaves and maids......"
Mama Li nodded the forehead of the green branch, "You talk a lot, you chatter all day long, and you don't pour a glass of water." ”
Su Ying looked down at her still thin hand, and for a while she didn't know what was going on, and pinched her arm hard, it hurt......
Mama Li came over and sat on the bed, let Su Ying lean on her arms, rubbed her arm and smiled lovingly: "The girl is burned, what are you doing by pinching yourself?" ”
Su Ying leaned on Mama Li's arms in a daze, and the pain in her arm told her that all this was true, she didn't dream, she went back to her childhood.
Su Ying grabbed Mama Li's hand suddenly, but Mama Li was startled, reached out and touched Su Ying's forehead, and muttered to herself: "It's not hot to touch, isn't it awake yet?" How is it so strange? ”
Su Ying smelled the reassuring smell on Mama Li's body, her voice was a little choked and a little aggrieved: "Mama, what's wrong with me?" ”
Mama Li heard the grievances in Su Ying's voice, rubbed her hair lovingly, and comforted: "The girl is not afraid, Mama is here!" You really don't remember what happened? You pushed the second girl because of a dispute between the eldest son of the Weiguo family and the second girl, the second girl accidentally fell down the steps and sprained her foot, and you refused to admit your mistake, the Hou Ye was furious, thinking that you were not sorry for the eldest sister, and punished you to kneel in the ancestral hall to reflect, but you fainted with a cold. ”
Su Ying burst into tears after hearing this, it turned out that she was really reborn, back to the year when she first met Li Shuhai, she was just ten years old this year, she listened to the instigation of others, thinking that Su Yan had something to think about Li Shuhai, and had an argument with Su Yan in a fit of anger, and now in retrospect, it was Su Yan who directed and acted by herself and fell down the steps, and attracted her father to make her father misunderstand that she was not a sister, and she refused to bow her head to explain, and since then her reputation as a irritable and irritable sister has spread.
Su Ying's uncontrollable tears frightened Mama Li, and she hurriedly comforted: "Girl, don't cry, Mama is here, what grievances do you have to tell Mama, Mama is here." Mama Li was a little surprised, Su Ying rarely has such a grievance on weekdays, she has always been wanton, even if she is wronged, she will not show it easily.
Su Ying raised her eyes, grabbed Mama Li's hand and sobbed and said, "Mama, I didn't push Su Yan, you believe me, I didn't push her, it was she who fell down by herself when she saw her father, I didn't push her......"
"Mama believes, Mama believes that our Ah Ying will never do such a thing." Mama Li stroked Su Ying's back and said firmly.
Mama Li knew that Su Ying was used to being domineering, but she never lied, and she had a bold posture since she was a child, so Su Ying said that if it wasn't her, it must not be her.
"The old slave believes that it is not the second girl who is pushed by the girl, but the Hou Ye has seen with his own eyes that the bell must be tied to the bell. The girl might as well admit her mistake first, and then explain after the Hou Ye has lost her anger, or explain it to the second girl, and let the second girl come forward to explain clearly to the Hou Ye. Mama Li said softly.
Su Ying sneered in her heart, and asked Su Yan to help her explain, if Su Yan really wanted to help her, how could she go to great lengths to frame her, if she let herself go so easily, wouldn't it be in vain for her to think about it, she was a sinister and vicious woman at all.
Su Ying despised herself in her previous life, and even such clumsy acting skills could turn her around, she was really blind, so she ended up in such a tragic end. In this life, they don't want to play with her anymore, what they owe to her and how they bully her, she will get it back one by one!
Qin Sang carried the food box into the house, muttering as he walked, "This ghost weather is spring, and there is no warmth, and the wind is blowing outside again." After that, he took out a bowl of medicine from the food box, handed it to Mama Li and said, "Girl, drink the medicine while it's hot, is the girl going to Shounian Hall tomorrow to say hello?" ”
Su Ying's eyelids jumped when she looked at the medicine bowl in Mama Li's hand, and she avoided it slightly: "Since you're getting better, let's go and say hello to my grandmother."
Mama Li smiled and said, "The girl still hates drinking medicine as much as she did when she was a child......"
Su Ying frowned and drank the medicine in one go, the tip of her bitter tongue was about to go numb, tears swirled in her eyes, and suddenly a trace of sweetness bloomed in her mouth, looking at Mama Li's kind face enlarged in front of her eyes, it turned out that Mama had stuffed a candied fruit in her mouth. The tears finally fell without a fight, and she was full of emotion for a while, but fortunately, God gave her the opportunity to start over.
Qin Sang snorted and laughed, "The girl is ashamed, she still cries when she drinks medicine." ”
The green branch nodded Qin Sang's nose, pretending to be angry and said, "Carefully pound you!" The room was full of laughter, steaming, as if it wasn't even so cold outside.
"You'er, my son, is you feeling better?" Suddenly, I heard the voice of Su Ying's stepmother Xu outside, and the girls who were already making a mess in the house were instantly silenced.
Lifting the curtain of the door, a gust of fragrant wind blew by, and Xu Shi threw himself in front of Su Ying's bed, "Ying'er, you finally woke up, which makes me so worried." ”
Xu Shi looked at Su Ying's appearance similar to the county lord of Anping, there were still some pale goose eggs in the illness with a little baby fat on his face, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, his eyes were clear, and his husband was like fat, now he was only ten years old and had such a grace, and in time he was a beautiful embryo who captivated the country and the city, Xu's eyes flashed a trace of disgust.
Su Ying didn't miss the fleeting impatience and disgust in Xu's eyes, lowered her head and curled the corners of her mouth into a mocking arc, I don't know if she was laughing at herself or Xu, sure enough, she was really stupid in her previous life.
The rich aroma on Xu's body mixed with the cold air outside, making Su Ying sneeze firmly, Su Ying sniffed and said, "It's cold outside, why did my mother come over, let my mother worry about whether it was mine or not." ”
Xu patted the back of Su Ying's hand, "What are we doing with these kind words, my mother came to see you, and I was relieved to see that your fever had subsided." ”
Probably because Xu's hands were still a little cold when he came in from outside, Su Ying shuddered and said: "Mother Lao's trip is her daughter's unfilial piety, the second sister's feet are better, my mother helped me make amends with the second sister, I know it's wrong, I'll pour tea for my sister tomorrow to admit my mistake." ”
Hearing Su Ying say this, Xu Shi was a little stunned for a while, in her impression, Su Ying would never admit her mistakes, let alone say such knowledgeable words.
After this illness, Su Ying was not close to herself, Xu Shi took a deep look at Su Ying, and felt that the ten-year-old girl in front of her had become different, but in a blink of an eye, she denied her thoughts, but she was a ten-year-old girl, what difference could it be? In the past few years, she has worked her, even her own daughter Su Yan has fallen behind, and Su Ying's grandfather's family is not very close, what tricks can she come up with, Xu Shi laughed secretly for his own worries.
Xu shook his head and shook off these messy thoughts, "Where is it worth pouring tea and admitting mistakes, it's just a naughty joke between your sisters, and your second sister won't take it to heart." ”
Without waiting for Su Ying to speak, Xu Shi called the second-class maid Lotus Core beside him to step forward, "Lotus Core, from now on, you will follow the third girl in Pujia Courtyard, and you will be waiting for your life, and you will have your benefits." ”
Su Ying's eyes were obscure, but she still shirked and said: "The people around my daughter are enough, and I don't dare to work the people around my mother." ”
Xu Shi smiled: "What are you doing with your mother like this, the people around you are a little young, I'm afraid that there is something inconsiderate, Lianxin has been with me for a few years, and I have always done things safely, you just have to rest assured." ”
"Then thank you mother, since you are the person next to your mother, it is safe to think about it, Mama Li, let Lianxin take care of my cage clothes from now on." Su Ying instructed Mama Li.
When Lianxin heard Su Ying say this, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and said happily: "Thank you girl, the slave will definitely serve the girl wholeheartedly in the future." ”
Xu Shi straightened Su Ying's clothes, "You can lie down, and my mother will go back." ”
Seeing that Su Ying was about to get up to send him off, he hurriedly pressed Su Ying, "Don't get up and toss, cover it in the quilt, mother will come to see you tomorrow, and send the girl to inform you if there is something." After that, she tucked the corners of the quilt for Su Ying and made a motherly gesture.
Su Ying nodded obediently, and then instructed the green branch to carry the wind lantern to send the Xu family back to the Jade Pavilion.
"Lianxin, in the future, you will live with the green branches, if you have any disagreements, just come to Mama Li. You are the one who is close to your mother, and she will not be wronged by you. ”
A hint of pride flashed in Lianxin's eyes, and when he lowered his head, Su Ying sent Lianxin away, and he was a little tired and leaned on the pillow to close his eyes and recuperate.
Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Su Ying opened her eyes, it was the green branch that came back, looked at Mama Li a little hesitant, and said with a smile: "Mama, what do you have to say?" ”
Mama Li was a little speechless, but she still gritted her teeth and said: "The slave knows that you and Mrs. have a good relationship, but she is not your biological mother, and she has her own child, you shouldn't accept the ...... of the lotus core."
Su Ying knew what Mama Li was worried about, since the death of her biological mother Anping County Lord, Mama Li has guarded the people of the Jade Pavilion strictly, she never refused to listen to Mama Li's words before, only the Xu family in her eyes was obedient to Xu's words, and even reprimanded Mama Li for provoking their mother-daughter relationship.
Su Ying buried her head in Mama Li's arms and said in a muffled voice: "I know what Mama said, but if you don't accept people this time, there will be a next time, and you can't refuse to go back, it's better to put people under your nose, she can rest assured that we can also rest assured." Since they have bad intentions, let's just guard against it. ”
Su Ying's words made Mama Li a little incredulous, and stared at Su Ying in a daze and couldn't speak.
Su Ying held Mama Li's hand, and her words were a little choked and a little clear, "Mama, I have grown up, and I am no longer the child who used to be unable to distinguish between right and wrong, my mother has passed away, and my younger brother is still young, and the only person I can trust in this Zhongyi Marquis Mansion is you." ”
Su Ying's words made Mama Li cry, and she felt a little aggrieved for Su Ying, her own young lady died, leaving Su Ying and the newborn Su Guangyan, Xu looked like a generous and charitable stepmother, who knows how much she really is?
Su Ying's young biological mother was only five years old when she died, and she was connived at by the Xu family over the years, and developed a lawless temperament, which was quite murderous, but the girl was young and did not listen to persuasion, and she could only sigh. I thought it was going to be like this forever, but I didn't expect the girl to wake up after a serious illness, but it was a blessing in disguise.
Mama Li hugged Su Ying and touched a handful of tears with the back of her hand, "It's good that the girl understands, the girl has grown up, and the slave has no regrets even if she goes down to see Madame." ”
Su Ying sniffed, hugged Mama Li hard, and said in a humming voice: "Mama will always accompany A-Ying, and the green branches, I will protect you!" ”
Mama Li touched Su Ying's hair, just as she was a child's joke, and didn't know that Su Ying at this time was already an old wine and a new pot, and this Su Ying was not Su Ying.
