After my father left, I asked the little servant to secretly send me a quilt, and I barely suffered anything at night, and I slept peacefully.

The next morning, Lan'er and Hui'er came and picked me up. Hui'er's face had become swollen and looked much better, and Lan'er also had an extremely deep mark on the base of her ear.

Seeing that I had been whipped and my clothes were soaked with blood and then stuck to the wounds, they lowered their heads and bit their lower lipes, and their shoulders twitched.

I smiled and said to them: "Look at the two of you, you are really made of water, you shouldn't have been called Lan'er Hui'er in the first place, it doesn't live up to your name." ”

Lan'er looked up at me with red eyes: "Except for the small sample, our names were all given by the lady when we entered the mansion, and the young lady said that we should call it, so we called it." ”

I smiled playfully: "Actually, you should really be glad that before I went home, my mother gave you a good name, if you change it to Miss, I will take it......" I deliberately sold a pass and left half of it.

"Take what?" Hui'er was also aroused by curiosity, and still spoke in a thick nasal voice.

I leaned into her ear wickedly: "You also said that I am unreliable, and I have no knowledge, let me take a name, just call you angelica, forsythia or something, or Tian Qi, as soon as I call your name, grinning, showing a mouthful of fine rice and white teeth, how festive." ”

Hui'er pursed her lips and smiled, a snot bubble blew out of her nose, she hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief, and her face turned red with shame for a while.

Lan'er and I were both amused by her embarrassment, and the atmosphere was not so dull.

"Okay, miss, I'm not fine, hurry back to the yard, I want to sleep well, the ground is too hard, it hurts my bones." I turned around and urged.

Lan'er and Hui'er stopped at the same time, and regained their bitter gourd faces: "Miss, Jinxiu Garden has been occupied by Miss Qingyin, and we are temporarily living in Wisteria Xiaozhu." ”

"Wisteria Kozuki? Listening to the name is very elegant, on my Yunwu Mountain, in addition to the large fields of rhododendrons in full swing in spring, there are only wisteria left. No one cares about it, it crawls everywhere, and the deep and shallow pink-purple flows down, like wind chimes made of glass, very beautiful, very pleasing, what are you doing with a sad face? ”

Lan'er and Hui'er glanced at each other, but didn't speak, Hui'er secretly tugged at the corner of Lan'er's clothes: "That wisteria building is too remote, we are afraid that Miss will be injured, and it will be too hard to get in and out." ”

"I've been grounded for the past two days to recuperate, and I've thought about it behind closed doors, it's better to be remote, I just want to be a little cleaner, it's best to be the kind of place where rumors are haunted and scare others to take a detour." I said nonchalantly.

The two girls' faces changed greatly: "Bah, Miss, hurry up and spit, why are you talking nonsense?" ”

I laughed and grabbed the hands of the two of them: "Okay, okay, two little housekeepers, you can't stay enough in this firewood room, hurry back." My stomach is deflated. ”

Lan'er asked distressedly: "Yesterday, I came to deliver food to Miss, but I was stopped by the guards, saying that I would not give me any affection, I could only hand over the food to him and entrust him to help me give it to you." Didn't he keep his word and didn't let you eat? ”

I thought of the shrimp dumplings that my father carefully brought to me yesterday, and I couldn't help but feel a hint of helplessness and amusement, thinking that it was not the right time for Lan'er to come yesterday, and it happened that my father was also there, so the guards naturally wouldn't let her in.

"It's given to me, but you young lady I have a big belly, and I've already digested it."

The wisteria building is really remote, and I have just had a fever, so I am a little weak, and I am panting and sweating profusely along the way. The whiplash wound was not healed, and it was stimulated by sweat, so it hurt a little, and I couldn't help grinning my teeth.

Hui'er insisted on helping me go, chattering that she should find a soft sedan chair. I smiled bitterly: "Don't forget that I'm still a guilty body, it's boring to be self-defeating." ”

Both of them were silent, not daring to reveal my sore spots.

Along the way, I met many people in the house, who were far away and did not dare to approach, but they pointed at me without any scruples, and from time to time there were ugly cold words drifting into my ears.

Lan'er and Hui'er deliberately pretended to smile and laughed loudly, in order to hide those cynicisms, as they spoke, their eyes turned red first, and they turned their backs to wipe their tears: "Are the old ladies all iron-hearted?" Xuan'er begged and explained so hard, how could she ignore Miss, and let so many people bully and wronged Miss. ”

I asked Lan'er, "Why are you so sure that I was wronged?" ”

After all, we've only been together for a few days, and we don't know each other, so where do they get their confidence in me?

"Miss, you forgot, the slave and maid went with you to catch the medicine that day, and the medicine did not pass through your hands from beginning to end, and the slave and maid took it and handed it to Sister Yufeng. If it is really poisonous, the suspicion of slaves and maids is the greatest, and it will not fall on your head. ”

"Shh I hurriedly spoke up to stop it: "Lan'er must not say this in front of outsiders, be careful that you are also misunderstood and will be whipped in vain." ”

Lan'er said in a low voice: "If I misunderstand and I can clear Miss's charges, I will also admit it." It's all because my legs and feet were too slow the day before yesterday, and I was late, so I couldn't help the young lady to argue. ”

I smiled and pinched her face, but I didn't speak, but I felt warm in my heart. Their trust in me is like a cup of hot tea that warms the heart and lungs in the cold winter, refreshing the heart and leaving a fragrance on the lips and teeth.

Although the location of the wisteria building is remote, the environment is very quiet, with cobbleball paths, willow pink apricots, and a rich spring in the south of the Yangtze River. The most rare thing is that there is a swing tied under the willow at the entrance of the courtyard, and there are silk yarn flowers on the swing, which arouses my great interest, and the people who want to come here are also naughty children.

The yard has clearly been freshly painted and repaired, and there are obvious signs of brand new. The walls are not the old-fashioned shades of blue, gray or crimson, but a light shade of pink and purple, and the color is just right, not dull and monotonous, nor glamorous and eye-catching, which makes people look irritated.

There is a wisteria flower in the yard, which should have been planted for more than ten years, the roots are bent and thick, the vines are hooked and coiled, the climbing fence is entangled, and the roots are intertwined. Approaching the flowering period, the vines have emerged with a little goose yellow and tender green buds, and it is inevitable that when the early summer is approaching, it will be crowded next to each other, and it will be prosperous.

"This wisteria flower is very suitable for me, it can detoxify and stop vomiting when used in medicine, and it is fragrant and sweet to eat, and when the flowers bloom, I will make purple carrot cake and purple carrot cake for you to eat." I squinted at the trellis: "But the weeping vines are too luxuriant, so it's best to prune them." ”

Lan'er and Hui'er's faces changed greatly when they heard this, and they waved their hands at me in horror: "No, no, never!" ”

"Why?" I wondered if they both reacted in unison: "Can't trust my craft?" Or are you afraid that I will poison you? ”

Lan'er looked around timidly: "No, it's because we're worried about Miss's injury, let's recuperate for a few days first." ”

I scoffed, "You don't need to make such a fuss, do you?" It scared my heart a beat. ”

Hearing us talking, the sample rushed out of the west wing, threw himself into my arms, and pulled the wound on my body, so that I couldn't help but "hiss".

Hui'er hurriedly pulled away Xiao Sample's hand, "Be careful of the injuries on Miss's body!" ”

Xiao Yan hurriedly took a step back, a little at a loss, and whispered with red eyes: "Miss, I'm sorry, I was too excited to see you for a while." ”

I raised my hand and scratched her nose: "What are you crying about, Miss, I'm alive, okay." ”

But soon, I couldn't laugh anymore, and the corners of my mouth were slightly upturned and froze on my face.

The door of the west wing room was wide open, and a soft collapse was temporarily erected in the room, and a thick mattress was laid, and Xuan'er lay on top of the soft collapse, covered with a thin quilt, her head facing the door, and her face was a little pale. Seeing me struggling to get up in a hurry.

"You're not here, there's no backbone in the yard, Xuan'er is not at ease, so she keeps sleeping on the couch, with the door open, you can see the entire ......courtyard," Hui'er said in a low voice.

I hurried two steps, stepped into the room, helped her lie down on the soft collapse again, retreated to the position three steps in front of the couch, and respectfully saluted Xuan'er.

Xuan'er was flattered for a moment, and struggled to get up, so I pressed her body: "Xuan'er, listen to me, you can completely afford this ceremony." It's not because you pleaded hard for me to come to my mother, but I shouldn't have suspected you for no reason, and you were punished by your mother. ”

"No, miss, the slave was punished because I contradicted my wife and asked for hardship, and it has nothing to do with Miss." Xuan'er glanced at Lan'er and Hui'er and argued.

I took her hand: "Xuan'er, don't explain, Hui'er has already told me, my mother must have blamed you for hiding too many things and didn't tell her." I am still suspicious, I have misunderstood you again and again, and I am wary of you everywhere, and I really should be scolded. Xuan'er, I'm really sorry. ”

Xuan'er had red eyes and held back tears: "The slave is the son of the house, and since I was a child, I have seen the fate of the slave who betrayed the master for glory, my mother taught me that since I recognized the master, I can't be half-hearted, although Mrs. punished me, but still willing to let me go back to the young lady's yard, which shows that although Mrs. is angry that I hid her, in fact, I still trust me in my heart." ”

There was a sour warmth in my heart: "Xuan'er, let me see your injuries." ”

Xuan'er refused in every possible way, clutched the quilt tightly, and refused to let go.

Xiao Xiang'er pouted and said: "Sister Xuan'er, you just let Miss take a look, Mrs. doesn't speak, and the doctors in the house don't show it, although I took the medicine from Miss's box according to Hui'er's words, but I'm not sure, I'm afraid of making a mistake." ”

Xuan'er was still a little embarrassed, but she didn't struggle anymore.

I lifted Xuan'er's quilt and skirt, and it was indeed as Hui'er said, when the mother-in-law started, she was affectionate, although it was not blurred with flesh and blood, it was still red and swollen, and some places were cracked, and some red blood oozed out.

The medicine given by the sample was not precise enough, but it also worked, and the wound did not deteriorate and healed. I glanced appreciatively at the sample, pointed out what she was using the wrong medicine, and she listened attentively, then turned and ran to my room and took the medicine box.
