I don't know how long it took, Wanying only felt that in her fluttering dream, she was being torn hard by two hands, hot on one side and cold on the other. Taking a step inside, it is as warm as spring, and if you are accidentally pulled back, it is like falling into an ice cellar in the tenth winter.

The body was hot and cold, and this side was just baked and hot, and it was pulled into the ice hole again. Wanying inadvertently looked down and found that her body was no longer a body, but a porcelain bottle, and what was even more terrifying was that the porcelain bottle had begun to explode because of the temperature difference. A huge crack, like a long snake spitting a black core, scurried upward.

Wan Ying was so frightened that she screamed out, her body began to shake violently, the crack became thicker and thicker, the black snake took advantage of the situation to jump up, and wrapped around Wan Ying's neck, Wan Ying wanted to scream but couldn't shout, Wan Ying wanted to tear the black snake away, only to find that she had no arms. With all his strength, he could only keep shaking his head.

The black snake became tighter and tighter, and the illusion of lack of oxygen had already made Wanying unable to feel the pain of being entangled in her neck. Wan Ying couldn't even shake her head at this time, and could only watch the black snake. The black snake puffed out its head and was also staring at Wanying, the long black core, going in and out of the jagged mouth.

Suddenly, Wanying saw herself in the pupils of the black snake's deep pool, and when she looked closely, she was not herself, and she was still herself, but she looked like a strange woman again. Wan Ying stretched out her eyes to look, wanting to see who this snake was, but the black snake didn't give Wan Ying such a chance, and the tighter and tighter her body became tighter, cutting off Wan Ying's last trace of breath, the black snake opened its bloody mouth and devoured Wan Ying, and at the last moment, Wan Ying saw the woman in the pupil glaring at her with resentment.

Her body trembled violently, and Wanying came back from her dream. As soon as he touched his forehead, he was sweating profusely, and he was cold, he got up and opened the curtain, and saw that Hongfu and Lurong were still sorting out books in the yard, and wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes. I only felt dry mouth, sore nose and throat, and there was warm tea in the cup on the table, and a few sips of my stomach were slightly relieved.

From then until dusk, he was mediocre and groggy, and he didn't eat much for dinner, so he lay down and fell asleep.

On the second day, it was Aunt Lin's birthday, and Wanying felt dizzy and dry throat when she got up early, but when she saw that everyone was busy making a mess, she couldn't help but say nothing.

The noon birthday banquet is set up in the Rongshou Hall in front of the back garden. Rongshoutang was originally Wanying's grandmother's house, because Shi Taijun loved to watch plays, Shi Daren built a small stage in front of the main hall behind the shadow wall, and there were corridors and two compartments connected to each other, and it was very cheap to enter and exit.

Entering the courtyard, I saw that the yard had already been covered with a transparent tarpaulin, no wind and light, it was very warm inside, entering the hall, only felt like a spring breeze, the warmth was abnormal, as soon as the feet landed, there was a warm current rising from time to time, only to know, the warm pavilion has been burned in the charcoal fire, no wonder it is so warm.

Today is also the seat of the five tables, the first seat on the table is the concubine of Dong'an, on the left is Mrs. Wu'anhou, Mrs. Feng Xiuyao, the commander of the Nine Gates, and Mrs. Pan Wuxing, the secretary of the military department. On the right side, the mother sat with the concubine, and down was Mrs. Wei Zhenbang, the left imperial secretary of the Inspectorate, Mrs. Luo Guangsheng, the general of the chariot and cavalry, and the rest were mostly guests who had seen at the father's birthday banquet.

As soon as Concubine Dong'an saw Wanying, she pulled her over, and her son rubbed it for a long time before she sat down at the second seat.

There was no foreign man at the banquet, and the aunts and sisters in the family also arrived together, so it was not lively. Although Wanying felt a little physically exhausted, this year was the last time she celebrated her mother's birthday at home, so she was mentally beaten.

Aunt Lin is a little drunk, but after a few rounds, her face is also red. After a while, Aunt Gao and Aunt Cui also came over to toast, and Aunt Lin had to drink two more glasses in a row, and said again and again: "I can't help it, I will be really drunk if I drink again." ”

Who knew that Aunt Cui said with a smile on her face: "Sister Lin has a good amount of alcohol on weekdays, why did she get drunk so quickly today, I really came to celebrate my sister's birthday, and my sister didn't even want to reward this thin noodles?" ”

She said sincerely, and her mother had to say: "Good sister, I know your intentions, I'll have another drink." After saying that, he drank it all again. Wanying watched Aunt Lin stroke her chest with her hand, knowing that she had drunk more today

"I also wish my sister eternal youth and a long and blessed life." After Aunt Gao finished speaking, she also drank three cups in a row.

Wanying looked at Aunt Lin's face a little hesitant, her right hand trembled and picked up the wine glass, and said: "Good sister, spare me, I drank this cup." ”

"It is said that Sister Lin is the best at dealing with people, who in the house does not miss my sister's good, but how can my sister look down on me today? Sister Cui's three cups can be drunk, why can't I drink my three cups? Could it be that I'm just a faceless person, and my sister won't give me this thin face? Aunt Gao said kindly.

Aunt Lin had no choice but to drink two more cups in a row, and her chest seemed to rise and fall after drinking, which was really Aunt Lin's limit.

"We know how much my sister drinks on weekdays, why did she squirm today?" When Aunt Gao saw Aunt Lin like that, not only was she not comforted, but she became sarcastic.

Several people at the table knew that it was not a good thing to say, but it was inconvenient to intervene because it was a private matter in our own family. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wu Anhou next to her said, "Isn't this the aunt last time?" ”

Aunt Gao couldn't hear the contempt in Mrs. Wu'anhou's mouth, thinking that Mrs. Wu'anhou knew that her daughter was appreciated by the Queen Mother, and wanted to talk to her, so she said in a row: "Mrs. Jin'an, I haven't seen you for a long time, and Mrs. has a lot of moisture. The slave family heard that the war in the west was a little tighter, and the Marquis of Wu'an would soon be in command and wave his army to the west. ”

Wanying laughed secretly when she heard this, Aunt Gao really hit the muzzle of the gun again, I heard my father mention it to my mother a few days ago: The war in the west is unfavorable, it seems that the generals recommended by Lord Wu'an Hou delayed the military situation and missed the opportunity to win, the court has ordered a change of commander, and Wu Anhou also took the blame and invited himself to fight, but there was no will in the palace for a long time.

The affairs of the court are like this, there is no will is actually a will, or the delay in issuing a will is also a will, that is: the current emperor is dissatisfied with Wu Anhou's recommendation, and he does not support Wu Anhou's own self-recommendation.

"My daughter is taken by the Queen Mother, and being a mother should also be decent and beneficial, who knows that she still eats radishes so salty and worries." Mrs. Wu Anhou was provoked to displease in her heart again, and her tone was almost like eating Aunt Gao raw.

"In my opinion, this aunt is still worried about herself, her girl will enter the palace soon, and she can't take care of many things." The speaker was the wife of Feng Xiuyao, the co-leader of the Nine Gate Admirals, who sat under the Marquis of Wu'an.

The co-leader of the Nine Gates Admiral is his father's subordinate, and it is said that Mrs. Feng Xiuyao should not help Mrs. Wu'anhou attack Aunt Gao. On the contrary, they should help Aunt Gao to attack Mrs. Wu'anhou. But Feng Xiuyuan, the Marquis of Wu'an, and Feng Xiuyao, the co-leader of the Nine Gates, are brothers of the same mother, and they are both prosperous and loss-oriented. How can I help Aunt Gao.

Wu Anhou was coldly treated by the court this time, and everyone didn't say anything about the lice on his bald head, but he didn't expect Aunt Gao to bump into him.

"The affairs of the court are decided by the emperor and the queen mother, so it is inconvenient for the aunt to worry about it." Mrs. Wu Anhou looked disdainful, and the words 'Mrs. Aunt' squeezed out of her mouth, as if she was reprimanding the low-ranking people in the family.

Aunt Gao wanted to get acquainted with Mrs. Wu'anhou twice, but her luck was not good, and she ate cannon fodder twice, which was self-defeating. At this moment, the whole face was as uncomfortable as eating a fly, but fortunately, Aunt Cui next to her pulled her back to her seat without mentioning it.
