Chapter 171: Addiction
In the past few days, Zhang Yan has been locked up at home and not allowed to go out, and she has gradually figured it out, and she feels scared when she thinks of that day, and she is very glad that she didn't shout out when she saw Jinqing and Wu Xing. 【】
Yuan Jinqing was embarrassed, Gu Ruren was so smart, he immediately found out that this matter was related to Aunt Du, how could he not find her, how would his cousin think of her in the future? moved his heart, but he was afraid that he would not look at his aunt's face and drive himself out of the country's mansion.
I'm a married girl, how can I live if I'm kicked out? What is the world going to think of her? Zhang Yan's heart jumped when she thought about it, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind that she couldn't say anything about it.
Du Xuexiang was pushed by Zhang Yan, her eyes were red, and her brain was hot, and the two of them threw aside the demeanor and bearing of Miss Qianjin, and tore them like two country shrews, and their long nails struggled to leave some "unforgettable" marks on each other's faces.
The maid who was guarding outside the house heard that the sound was wrong, and hurriedly pushed open the door and came in, and in horror, one of them hugged one, separated the two, and went to invite the lady over.
Zhang Yan and Du Xuexiang's hair was scattered, their hairpins were spent, their clothes were ripped and wrinkled, and they glared at each other like red-eyed roosters, and from time to time they wanted to fight for another 300 rounds with their teeth and claws.
Mrs. was frightened and hurriedly rushed over, seeing her niece and Du Xuexiang like this, her angry head hurt faintly again, first ordered the maid to take Zhang Yan down, and then held back her anger, and said politely to Du Xuexiang: "Yan'er is not sensible, please don't mind if there is a place to collide with Miss Du." It's not early today, Lord Du and Mrs. Du must be in a hurry, Miss Du might as well go back as soon as possible. ”
Du Xuexiang is not stupid, and when she heard it, her wife had given an eviction order. However, the heart and blood are churning. couldn't calm down for a long time, and looked at the lady in front of him with her mouth open and closed. Gradually, it was as if it had transformed into a hateful beast, waving its teeth and claws at her.
Du Xuexiang bit her tongue desperately, the pain made her sober up, this time she fell out with Zhang Yan, and this dead old woman saw her like this, but she was afraid that she would never have a chance to marry into the Guogong Mansion again.
But what is she afraid of? There is a miracle medicine, it is only a matter of time before she becomes as beautiful as a fairy, and it is possible to be a concubine!
Du Xuexiang snorted coldly at Mrs. Turn around and walk out, what Guogong Mansion? Compared to the palace, she is not rare! Let the dead old woman hold it, and see what kind of daughter she can find to be her daughter-in-law!
Madame was furious. She had long said that Du Xuexiang was not right. It's just that Yan'er always pours out her heart and lungs, and now it's okay, it's finally a falling out. I just hope that Yan'er can grow her brain, look at people with more heart in the future, and don't always be deceived.
In the carriage, Du Xuexiang's maid trembled and rearranged her hair and clothes, and when she got home, Du Xuexiang rushed back to her courtyard. On the way, he bumped into Du Jin, and he didn't even say hello. Just left.
Du Jin looked at his sister's distant back, he was so angry that he raised his feet and walked to his courtyard, he must marry this sister quickly, otherwise he will get into trouble sooner or later.
After Du Xuexiang rushed into the room, her hands and feet began to disobey the call, she opened the cabinet tremblingly, took out the box containing the magic medicine, and the maid who followed up hurriedly stopped her and said, "Miss, you have already taken medicine once when you went out today, and you can only take one pill a day!" ”
Du Xuexiang pushed the maid away, the maid got up and wanted to stop again, Du Xuexiang stared at the maid fiercely, like a beast, the maid was frightened, and watched in horror Du Xuexiang grabbed a pill in a panic and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it, he still felt that it was not enjoyable, and he picked up another one and ate it.
With the two pills in his stomach, Du Xuexiang suddenly felt refreshed, the rushing blood under his skin also subsided, and his spirit and reason returned to his body.
After calming down, Du Xuexiang came back to his senses, feeling a little frightened, he had never been like this before, why didn't he take this magic medicine now, he was nauseous and dizzy, and he wanted to kill himself uncomfortably?
No matter how stupid she is, she can guess that there is something wrong with this medicine.
After being afraid, Du Xuexiang reorganized her appearance in the mirror, and went to Master Du, at this time, she had to rely on her father to help her.
What do you mean by that? I'm busy helping you find a doctor, but I want to hurt you? Du Jin was shocked and angry, and he shot the case, he really raised a white-eyed wolf!
The steward beside his father called him over in an unkind tone, and he guessed that something bad was waiting for him, but he didn't expect his sister to come and sue him for his crookedness! It's really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs, and it's nothing more than that!
Master Du coughed, turned to his daughter and said, "Is it a mistake, maybe you have another disease?" ”
Du Xuexiang's face flushed with anger, "Isn't my own body still clear?" Every time I was really sick, I had tears and snot flowing together, and my body was like tens of thousands of ants gnawing at me, if I didn't take the pill quickly, I would like to kill myself immediately to relieve this pain! ”
Du Jin stomped his feet and said, "Why are you still taking that magic medicine?" Didn't I say that the people who sell medicine tell me that once the disease is cured, you can't take it anymore! ”
Du Xuexiang shouted: "How do I know when I can eat and when I can't?" I think you just can't see me! ”
Du Jinqi's eyes turned black, and he said to his father: "Father, look at what she is arrogant now, slandering her brother, and disrespecting her sister-in-law two days ago, you said that you are sick after taking the magic medicine, then good, I will take you to the doctor to see, if you are sick, I will raise you for a lifetime!" ”
Saying that, Du Jin pulled Du Xuexiang to leave, what kind of joke, Du Xuexiang's complexion was ruddy, and he was very energetic when he made a small report, where did he look like he was sick.
Master Du hurriedly stopped the angry son, and started to make peace with Hu, "Oh, what do you look like with a red and white face?" Which brother and sister have never quarreled? It's all the same as you, and you go outside to shout about something? ”
He said to Du Xuexiang again: "You go back first." If you feel unwell and ask your brother to take you to the doctor to see, don't take the magic medicine, why do you take it when you are cured? It's a medicine that is poisonous! ”
Du Xuexiang was anxious and angry, but her father and brother didn't believe in herself, and blamed her for being greedy, after eating the pill, she was comfortable all over, and it was great and good for her appearance, she couldn't help but be greedy to eat it for a few more days, who knew that it would cause this disaster!
After Du Xuexiang left, Lord Du and Du Jin seriously discussed Du Xuexiang's marriage, Lord Du understood coldly during this time, and heard a lot of rumors, it was time to make up his mind, marry his daughter before the happy event in the Guogong Mansion, so that he could live with his face.
Although Du Jin scolded badly, but he still cherished his sister in his heart, and the next day he invited a doctor to diagnose Du Xuexiang's pulse, and Hu Huabai's doctor cut the pulse for a long time, only saying that Du Xuexiang was a little hot, which may be related to the weather, and it didn't matter, in other words, Du Xuexiang was not sick.
Du Jin couldn't rest assured, the doctor went to persuade Du Xuexiang a few words, and then secretly ran to the small alley where he bought medicine, but no one agreed after patting the door for a long time, Du Jin's heart began to panic.
The neighbors were shocked by the sound of Du Jin knocking on the door, seeing Du Jin, recalling for a while, the aunt remembered that he was a young man who had come to inquire about the old man not long ago, and said to Du Jin: "This old man is gone!" Within two days of you leaving, he packed up his things and left, never coming back. ”
Du Jin was taken aback, and asked anxiously, "Where did you go?" ”
The aunt shook her head, turned around and went back to the courtyard and closed the door.
Du Jin sat on the ground dejectedly, he must have fallen into a trap, someone calculated his sister through him! Holding back the cold panic in his heart, Du Jin hurried home, and when he rushed to his sister's room, he saw Du Xuexiang's hair scattered, his face pale in the late autumn weather, his face was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and he was beating the maid with a candlestick with a hideous face.
The maid was beaten by her and screamed but didn't dare to fight back, so she hugged her head and ran away.
Without the hindrance of the maid, Du Xuexiang gasped and knelt on the ground, opened the cabinet and took out the black wooden box, and didn't count it, grabbed a handful of pills and stuffed them into his mouth, chewed a few times and swallowed them, and then fell to the ground as if he was dead, and his black hair was dirty and scattered on the ground.
Du Jin's heart was frightened, he didn't believe it when his sister told him before, but at this time, he saw Du Xuexiang's terrible appearance of strange illness, and his heart was frightened.
When Du Xuexiang quieted down, Du Jin dared to step into Du Xuexiang's room and helped his sister up from the ground, Du Xuexiang's face gradually returned to normal, and her lips became rosy.
Du Xuexiang relieved herself, tears involuntarily seeped out from the corners of her eyes, covered her face and cried, "Brother, what's wrong with me?" I don't want to live anymore! ”
If she goes down like this, let alone be a noble concubine, even if she puts down her body and marries into a villager's family, no one is necessarily willing to want her!
Du Jin sighed, suppressed the fear in his heart, picked up the black box on the ground, opened it and counted it, there were only a few pills left in it, according to Du Xuexiang's current speed, it would not last a few days at all. If all these are eaten, how will Du Xuexiang spend the rest of his days? Isn't life worse than death day and night?
"Xue Xiang, tell your brother honestly, did you offend anyone?" Du Jin asked while holding his sister. (To be continued)
