Chapter 3 Ten years of life and death
The people of the entire Huizhou Mansion know that the British Mansion has two treasures of the town, one is the Danshu Iron Coupon given by Emperor Taizu, which represents the hereditary replacement of the title of the British Mansion and will never be reduced, and the other is the old Duchess of the country who has gone through four dynasties, Miss Zhu Jiu's great-grandmother Bai Laotaijun.
Zhu Luan walked out of the sea of fire, and the old woman with a dragon's head crutch he saw was the wife of the old prince Zhu Hong, Bai.
In Zhu Luan's impression, Bai Lao Taijun is a heroine, and the Yang family will be a figure like She Taijun.
Bai Lao Taijun's life was bumpy, all the way to the loss of husband and sons, until today, the British princess lineage withered, the current British Duke Zhu Kuan is the second grandson, and Bai Lao Taijun has no blood relationship.
But on the bright side of the house, no one dared to disobey her.
After Zhu Luan pretended to faint, the scene fell into chaos again, and at this time, Bai Laotaijun's crutch stomped heavily on the ground to calm the scene again.
The white old lady has sent the black-haired person three times, and he has seen countless big scenes in his life, and his bearing is not like a kind old grandmother, but more like a calm and calm man. At this time, her face was solemn, her eyes were sharp and majestic, looking at Miss Zhu Jiu who fainted in Yahuan's arms, the old voice was still as calm as ever, and even revealed a trace of coldness.
"Since the person is not dead, send the person to Shou'an Hall and find a mother-in-law to see."
As soon as Mrs. Bai's words fell, the middle-aged woman with beaded hair, that is, Miss Zhu Jiu's aunt, and the current Duchess Li, immediately spoke out against it.
"Grandmother, how can this work," Li's words were full of trepidation, and the distress was overflowing.
"Nine girls are seriously injured, before the nine girls lost their temper and said that they wanted to burn down this mansion, I thought she was talking about playing." Li said as he wiped a handful of tears.
"It's all me who disciplined me, I didn't expect her to really do this, and she also took out the maid and wife who watched the yard, and I don't know how much people were burned, yesterday there was news on the road that Duan Erlang and Princess Jinyang would arrive in three days!"
Princess Jinyang?
Zhu Luan, who fainted in the girl's arms, heard a familiar name, and her ears moved.
"I've persuaded her several times, saying that the rumors between Duan Erlang and the princess are all false, and that stupid kid doesn't want to listen to it."
Li let out a long sigh.
"This is happening at this juncture, you must find a famous doctor to take a good look, and I don't know what the princess will think of our family," Li continued to say with a sad face, "Grandmother, it's really not good, I heard that there is a princess doctor with her, and when the princess arrives, I will ask the grandfather to take the name card to invite, the ninth girl is only fifteen years old this year, if she leaves burns, how can she marry, how to get the second brother and second sister-in-law who passed away ......." ”
"That's enough." Old Lady Bai coldly interrupted Li's words.
"You can afford to lose this person, but the British government can't afford to lose this person." Mrs. Bai coldly ordered her subordinates to bring a door panel, snatched Miss Zhu Jiu out of the little girl's arms, and put it on the door panel.
"Carry it to Shou'antang."
The little girl jumped up from the ground and glared at the old lady Bai with resentment on her face.
Mrs. Bai turned a blind eye to her eyes, patted the soot on her body, and pointed to the ground with a dragon head crutch, heading towards her own courtyard Shou'an Hall, followed by the little girl who was carrying Miss Zhu Jiu's door panel, holding the door panel, and a row of maids-in-law.
"This matter ends here, don't bother about this evil obstacle, if Erlang and his wife want to blame in heaven, my old wife will bear it!"
Old Taijun Bai left this resounding sentence and left the Li family.
Although the door panel is cold and hard, Zhu Luan has been lying in the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and he is not dissatisfied with such treatment. Leaving the aunt who harbored evil intentions in her memory, her whole person relaxed. Old Lady Bai was someone she had seen in her previous life, and she wasn't worried about what the other party would do to her. On the swaying door panel, Zhu Luan, who was unstable and covered with bruises, gradually fell asleep.
This time it looks like it's like fainting.
……
This sleep was fragrant and heavy, and there were many people in her dreams that she hadn't seen for a long time.
Then she opened her eyes and was shocked to see an old face full of wrinkles.
"White ......"
Zhu Luan was in a trance and thought that he was in his previous life, and on the thirty-third jade steps, he saw the old lady who had brought his eldest grandson to worship raise his head, and the gold leaf on the dragon's head crutch was shining.
Fortunately, she quickly came to her senses, and her slightly aching body was propped up, and she smiled at the old woman who was sitting on the edge of her bed, examining her.
"Great-grandmother." She shouted.
Old Bai Taijun looked at the girl in front of her with a complicated expression.
Rao is through the wind and waves, the moment the girl opened her eyes, the streamer in the starry eyes still made the old lady Bai trance.
Then she saw the girl blink, and she regained the lazy gaze of the newly awakened man.
Old lady Bai looked fixedly, and the girl in front of her was pale, and her face was still the same evil obstacle.
The diagnosis of Mrs. Chen, the old woman who knows medical skills in Shou'an Tang, is still echoing in the ears of Old Taijun Bai.
"Miss Nine, she doesn't seem to be seriously injured. Mainly some extracutaneous burns, the area is not very large, choking a lot of soot in the throat, but the strange thing is that it does not seem to cause suffocation, the burn heals quickly, the old slave thinks, there should be no big problem. ”
Mrs. Chen, who is old and serious, is sixty this year, and she has diagnosed hundreds of women in her life, and it is the first time she has seen such a big lady in a big mansion.
Rao is an old man, and her words can't help but bring a little surprise.
Old Taijun Bai is old and a little mentally weak, she rests early at night, Shou'an Hall is the farthest away from Miss Jiu's courtyard Qiushui Pavilion, she has already fallen asleep when the fire is on, and when the eyeliner she arranged in the outer courtyard tells her that Qiushui Pavilion is on fire, she knows that it is too late.
Unexpectedly, that stupid girl survived and was not seriously injured.
It's really weird.
Zhu Luan felt that there was no longer a cold and hard door panel under him, but a large bed with a soft quilt, the burned clothes had also been changed, and the burns left by the Suzaku Soul before he was not on his body had also been medicated, and it was cold.
"I scared my great-grandmother last night."
Zhu Luan struggled to roll off the bed and bent his knees to raise his hand to Bai Laotaijun.
"Thank you great-grandmother for taking care of you."
The girl's body was still trembling slightly, but her hands and feet were stretched straight, and her movements were as smooth as flowing water, and the standard of etiquette was reminiscent of a female official in the palace.
Old Lady Bai's left hand holding the dragon's head crutch shook slightly, and the eyes that looked at Miss Zhu Jiu became more and more strange.
I never thought that this great-granddaughter, who had nothing to do with her, would perform such a salute and say such a thing.
After the death of the girl's parents, Mrs. Bai once wanted to take the little girl to Shou'an Hall, so that the child could grow up normally, but she didn't expect her daughter-in-law to blame herself and swear viciously, which enveloped the girl's heart, and when she realized that something was wrong, the girl's heart was only her own uncle and aunt, and everyone else was regarded as a flood beast.
"Since you are a descendant of the Zhu family, I will not watch you die, but I don't dare to be your great-grandmother, since you can't die, get out quickly." The old lady was suspicious in her heart, thought about what the child had done in the past, and still said stiffly.
Zhu Luan sighed in his heart. Get up from the floor and sit back on the bed.
"Great-grandmother, my injuries are not healed and I can't move, so let me bother my great-grandmother for a few more days." She said softly.
At this point, Mrs. Bai didn't say much, snorted and left on crutches.
As soon as the old lady Bai left, a goose-yellow shadow rushed in like a whirlwind.
It's the little girl from last night.
She changed into clean clothes, but she still had cigarette ash on her face, and threw herself to Miss Zhu Jiu's bedside and continued to cry.
"Miss! Miss! You're finally awake, you're scared to death. ”
The little girl Yuying seemed to be a person made of tears, Zhu Luan grabbed a pillow towel and wiped her tears, and said to her: "Don't cry, I'm thirsty." ”
This sentence is more effective than anything else, Yuying immediately got up, rushed out like another whirlwind, and brought Zhu Luan a bowl of boiled water not long after.
"Mrs. Chen said that you are not well, you can't drink tea, you can only drink plain water." Yuying stared at the porcelain bowl bitterly and hatefully, as if she had been greatly wronged, and her two big eyes began to shed tears again.
"Okay, white water is white water." Zhu Luan beckoned to her.
Yuying put the porcelain bowl on the bedside table, opened the cabinet door, rummaged through it unceremoniously, found the most gorgeous-looking shirt and put it on Zhu Luan, who was sitting at the head of the bed, and then sat on the ground by herself.
Zhu Luan looked at the clothes draped on her body, which were still fashionable when she was alive. Although I don't know how long it has been, the fashion of the Great Zhou Dynasty seems to be a bit stagnant.
Zhu Luan took a sip of hot water, looked up at the little girl sitting on the ground wiping her tears in front of her, and asked, "How many years is Yongchang now?" ”
"Yongchang?" The little girl Yuying raised her dark face that was smoked, and tears rushed out of her face, last night's smoke choked her and she was still dizzy, hearing her own young lady's words, why is this question so strange, could it be that the young lady was hit on the head by the beam?
Thinking of this, Yuying couldn't help but feel sad again, she gasped for breath several times before she sobbed and replied, "Miss...... The era name has long been changed...... It's now eight years since the beginning of Zaichu......"
Zhu Luan's pupils shrank, and he clenched the familiar fabric on his body.
"Oh, that's it. Then you tell me, it is now eight years from Yongchang, how many years have passed? ”
Yuying was stunned, the voice of the young lady in her memory had always been soft, often panicked, and sounded a little vague, while the young lady in front of her, although her voice was a little hoarse from the smoke, the words were clear and sonorous, like the sound of gold and stone.
What's wrong with Miss?
Yuying shook her little head and threw out the ideas she couldn't figure out.
"It's been ten years." She replied timidly.
The young lady on the other side was quiet and took another sip of hot water.
It's been 10 years.
