Chapter 60: The Bai Family's Daughter-in-law

The fire came suddenly, and it was even more violent, but in the blink of an eye, the surroundings of the house were already burned, trapping Shui Qingqing and the three of them in the fire.

The moment she saw the firelight, Shui Qingqing's eyes were shocked, and she didn't think about it, and immediately pulled her mother and Aunt Lian to escape to the door.

But as soon as her hand was loosened, Shui Qingqing looked back and saw that her mother, who had been holding her hand tightly, had collapsed to the ground in horror.

Shui Qingqing turned around and picked her up, looking at her mother's painful and frightened description, she was so worried that she lost her voice: "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

Seeing Princess Wuning fall to the ground, Aunt Lian also rushed forward as soon as possible, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't be afraid, princess, the old slave will take you out...... The old slave will not leave the princess alone......"

But no matter what Aunt Pity said, Princess Wu Ning looked at the blood-red fire in front of her, as if she had returned to the fire twenty years ago, she was burned and rolled all over the ground, and her whole body was in pain......

The more she thought about it, the more Princess Wu Ning's body trembled, and she had a heart attack, her chest cramped, and her throat seemed to be pinched by someone's hand, and her breathing was almost suffocated.

Shui Qingqing looked at her mother's increasingly painful appearance, and felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat, so she hurriedly picked up Princess Wuning and rushed to the door, while asking Aunt Pian: "Auntie...... Mother, what's wrong with her? ”

Looking at Princess Wuning's appearance, Aunt Pian's heart was wringing, and she said in a trembling voice: "After the princess encountered the fire before, she left a shadow in her heart, and I am afraid that it will cause heart disease again......"

Shui Qingqing's heart tightened, and she said urgently to Aunt Pian: "What about the medicine?" Where is the mother's medicine put? ”

Aunt Pity was so anxious that she cried, "The medicine is in the package, and it is still in the house." The old slave will go back and get the ...... now."

At that time, Shui Qingqing had escaped from the burning house with Princess Wuning on her back and Aunt Pian, and when she saw that Aunt Pian was going back to the fire to get medicine, she hurriedly grabbed her and said in a deep voice: "Aunt helped my mother to wait for me in the carriage, I'll go back to get medicine!" ”

As soon as the words fell, before Aunt Pian came to her senses, Shui Qingqing had already turned around and rushed into the burning room again......

After entering the house, Shui Qingqing ran desperately to the place where the package was placed.

Fortunately, the package was still there and was not burned by the fire, and after Shui Qingqing picked up the package, she fled to the door again without stopping.

But the door was completely abusive, and it was impossible to get out.

Shui Qingqing had no choice but to retreat into the house, and the fire in the house became more and more ferocious, like a fire dragon spewing tongues of fire around her, trying to devour her.

She wanted to jump out of the window, but the windowsill of the garden was higher than the average windowsill, and there was fire all around, so there was nowhere to climb and land.

Shui Qingqing hugged her mother's package tightly and was in a hurry in the fire, if she couldn't send her mother's life-saving medicine out in time, her mother would probably have a heart attack and die......

No, she has just recognized her mother, God will not be so cruel to her, and will definitely let her go out safely and send her mother's life-saving medicine......

Shui Qingqing covered her mouth and nose to block the smoke, looking for an escape exit everywhere, but even though there were servants fighting the fire outside, the whole room was about to burn to ashes.

She hugged the package in her arms and looked at the sea of fire in front of her in fear, and her eyes finally revealed the last despair.

She thought sadly that her mother should have been like she was now, trapped in the fire, cornered, and watching herself be engulfed in the fire......

And back then, what kind of bone-eating pain would make my mother so desperate and afraid when she encountered the fire again after more than 20 years.

And this kind of pain, I'm afraid that I will also experience it myself.

The fallen pillars smashed at her with fire, Shui Qingqing closed her eyes in despair, and at the last moment of her life, she thought of Yun'er, her mother, and ...... Mei Zijin ......

'Bang! ’

There was a loud bang in her ears, but Shui Qingqing did not have the expected pain, and the next moment, her body fell into a wide embrace.

Opening her eyes in astonishment, Shui Qingqing met her familiar deep eyes.

The masked assassin seemed to fall from the sky, kicked the beam that was smashed towards Shui Qingqing in mid-air, and as soon as he reached out, he scooped Shui Qingqing into his arms with his eyes closed and waiting for death.

"You...... Why are you here? ”

Shui Qingqing looked at the masked assassin who appeared out of thin air with wide eyes in disbelief.

"Shut up, hold on!"

Barely breathless, the masked assassin spun around, jumped up with her in his arms, and jumped towards the window.

Shui Qingqing's eyes were the churning fire, and the scorching heat brought by the flames was so hot that she almost couldn't open her eyes.

But at this moment, she reached out and grabbed the belt of the masked assassin, and she was no longer afraid at all!

There was a muffled sound overhead, but at the last moment of jumping out of the window, the masked assassin blocked the smashed window pillar with his arm, and rolled out of the apricot forest outside with Shui Qingqing in his arms.

Before Shui Qingqing could get up from the ground, there was a loud bang, and the house burned down and collapsed......

Cold sweat poured down, Shui Qingqing's eyes widened in horror, looking at everything in front of her in disbelief, and trembling with fear in her heart - if he hadn't arrived in time, I was afraid that she would have been buried in the fire now......

She was still unable to recover from the panic, the masked assassin stood up with his left arm covered, his deep eyes faintly swept over her long hair, the description under the mask was slightly relaxed, and he turned around and left without saying a word.

Shui Qingqing caught up with him two steps and said with sincere gratitude: "Thank you for saving me...... Thank you...... Does your hand hurt any problems? ”

The masked assassin glanced back at her and said coldly, "I said that I will protect you until the chess pieces are exhausted." ”

Hearing this, Shui Qingqing's heart tightened, and she wanted to ask him why he had been reluctant to let Mei Zijin go, but thinking that his mother was still waiting for her medicine to save her life, she couldn't delay for a moment, so she immediately took the package and rushed to the carriage.

And the masked assassin seemed to have a servant coming to Shui Qingqing, and immediately left like a ghost......

Shui Qingqing ran straight to the carriage, but when she got to the stone steps where the carriage was parked, she didn't see the carriage, let alone her mother and Aunt Pian.

Shui Qingqing asked the maid and asked her to see her mother and the carriage, but the people didn't know.

Although the palace garden is very large, but when it is uninhabited on weekdays, there are only a dozen maids guarding to do simple cleaning, and now the palace is on fire, and the people are panicked to carry water to extinguish the fire, and no one notices the whereabouts of Princess Wuning and Aunt Pian.

Unable to find her mother and poor aunt, Shui Qingqing's heart sank with a 'pop', and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

She ordered the maid and servant to hurry up and find someone, and she searched around in a panic, until at last she found that there were new marks left by the carriage running over the road to the mountain, and a handkerchief from Aunt Pity.

Shui Qingqing's heart tightened, worried about whether her mother had a serious heart attack, but she didn't come for a long time, and Aunt Lian drove her mother back to the capital to rescue her......

Thinking of this, she asked the servant to bring the horse, turned over on the horse, and did not dare to stop for a moment to chase the carriage along the traces left under the horse.

Catching up all the way, looking at the messy carriage tracks on the road, Shui Qingqing's bad premonition became stronger and stronger - why are the tracks of the wheels so messy, it feels like the horses are crazy and jumping on the mountain road......

Shui Qingqing was frightened by this thought that popped up in her heart. Then the next moment, looking at everything in front of her, she was stunned by the fright!

On the edge of the cliff at the corner of the mountain road, one wheel of the carriage in which my mother was riding was suspended outside the cliff, the wheel of the carriage broke, and the two tall horses pulling the carriage fell in a pool of blood a few steps away......

The blood coagulated instantly, Shui Qingqing's brain was roaring, and she couldn't withstand the blow, and rolled down from the horse.

But what happened in a short period of time? Why is she still sitting in front of the bronze mirror talking to her mother one moment ago, and the next moment it is all changed?!

Shui Qingqing's heart was painful, she gritted her teeth and stood up and ran towards the suspended carriage.

The moment she lifted the curtain, it seemed that she had exhausted the strength of her life, and she didn't even dare to open her eyes to see it.

In the broken carriage, Princess Wu Ning curled up on the ground with a pale face, the corners of her forehead and mouth were broken, bleeding, her eyes were closed weakly, and she let out an almost inaudible moan of pain.

But such a voice, listening to Shui Qingqing's ears at this time, is still better than heaven!

Mother is still alive!!

As long as you're alive!

Shui Qingqing's dead heart came alive in an instant, and she hurriedly stepped forward to take her mother out of the carriage, put her mother in the open space on the side, opened the package with shaking hands, and took out the pills to feed her mother.

"Mother...... Mother ......"

Shui Qingqing held her mother in her arms, wiped the blood on Princess Wuning's face with a silk handkerchief, and tears couldn't stop falling.

Hearing her call, Princess Wuning, who was almost unconscious, laboriously lifted the corners of her eyes, and when she saw that it was her, Princess Wuning's gray eyes flashed with light, and her blood-lost lips moved with difficulty: "Qing'er...... It's great that you're okay...... Why are you so stupid, how can you run into the fire...... That's what happened to my mother back then......"

Shui Qingqing said in a trembling voice: "Mother, I'm fine, I'm fine...... What's wrong with you guys? What about Aunt Pity? ”

Hearing Shui Qingqing ask about Aunt Pian, Princess Wuning's whole body trembled, tears rolled down the corners of her eyes, and she said with grief: "The carriage suddenly lost control and rushed towards the cliff...... In order to stop the carriage, Aunt Pity climbed out of the carriage to drive the horse, and fell down the cliff......"

Falling from such a high cliff, can Aunt Lian still survive?

Thinking of this, Princess Wuning, who had lost her loyal servant, was sad and griefful, coupled with a serious heart disease, spit blood out of her throat, and a large mouthful of blood stained the blue dress on her body, and also dyed Shui Qingqing's dress red.

"Qing'er...... Quick, send me back to Beijing, I'm going to take you home! ”

Hearing that Aunt Pian actually fell off a cliff, Shui Qingqing was already grief-stricken. Now seeing that the blood in my mother's mouth couldn't stop gushing out, her face was gray, and she was even more distraught, crying bitterly: "Mother, don't bother to talk anymore, my daughter will take you to the doctor immediately......"

"It's too late......"

Princess Wuning clenched Shui Qingqing's hand tightly, and said weakly: "Mother promised to take you home...... If so, if I die here, they ...... They won't recognize your ......"

Bai Haoqing's widowhood, coupled with Shui Qingqing's previous unbearable experience, Princess Wu Ning knew that if she didn't personally lead her daughter into the house, he would not admit that this daughter could not bring benefits to the Bai family, could not add glory to the lintel of the Bai family, and even brought slander to the Bai family.

Even in the eyes of the world, Shui Qingqing married an idiot, planted a child, and married Chongxi, but before the doorman, the husband was dead, and he did not abide by the woman's way and left the house, and her reputation was disastrous. But in the eyes of Princess Wuning, her daughter will always be the kindest and most beautiful ...... in the world

Looking at her most cherished daughter with her disgraced eyes, Princess Wuning almost begged Shui Qingqing who cried until she lost her voice: "Just beg your mother, our mother and daughter...... Let's go home together! ”

Shui Qingqing's heart was torn apart, and she was so grief-stricken that she couldn't speak.

How she didn't understand her mother's concerns, it was precisely because of her insecurity that her mother insisted on doing so.

However, if there is no mother, can such a home still be considered a home for her?

But looking at her mother's earnest eyes, how could Shui Qingqing bear to refuse?

She helped her mother to sit on the horse, let her mother lean on her arms, tied the package to her body, and spurred the horse to gallop towards the capital......

Along the way, Princess Wu Ning leaned weakly on Shui Qingqing's arms, but her face was full of relief, and she smiled softly: "I didn't expect my daughter to ride so well...... Much better than my mother......"

Shui Qingqing pressed the grief in her heart, stiffened her throat and pretended to be relaxed and smiled: "Mother, I can do a lot of things, and I will do what a man will do...... Have you ever heard that I easily killed the snow wolf dog of the fifth princess in the Hou Mansion before...... My daughter is bold and agile, and she won't be bullied......"

"That's a good ......"

Princess Wu Ning's weak eyes couldn't open, but there was a satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth, "You are not like me anymore, like your grandmother...... She is a heroine who does not lose to men, she has been on the battlefield with your grandfather, husband and wife are enemies, and your mother is very envious......"

"Mother, I will make the best wine in the world. Others use sorghum and rice grains to make wine, but my daughter uses wine to make wine, so the wine made is the most mellow and sweet. After that, the daughter brewed a new wine for her mother every year, and only gave her mother one drink......"

"Well, Mother drinks a glass of wine you brew every day......"

"My mother and adoptive father were very kind to me, taught me a lot of things, taught me to drink and sing, and left me all the delicious food to eat. Never let me freeze and starve...... If the adoptive father knew that his naughty daughter was actually a great county lord, the adoptive father would definitely laugh and say, "Look at you, you're lying to Daddy again......"

"Your adoptive father is a good man, the greatest benefactor of my life...... Mother will make him cows and horses in the next life, and I am grateful to him for helping me raise you so well......"

"Mother, have you seen Yun'er? Did you know that he also had three cinnabar moles on his hands, and his daughter, like her mother, also relied on these three cinnabar moles to find him...... He is very well-behaved and very cute, with big eyes and beautiful like a female doll, and in the future, when he grows up, I will teach him to call you grandma......"

Tears have long blurred her vision, Shui Qingqing is afraid that her mother will never wake up if she falls asleep in her arms, she keeps following her mother to tell her interesting stories about her in the West Desert, about the hard work of Yun'er when she was a child, and about Yun'er's well-behaved and cute......

She whipped the horse's back with a whip, and begged with tears in her heart: Horses, horses, you run faster, please save my mother, hard work for you......

Fortunately, the capital arrived soon, and Shui Qingqing drove the horse for a while, taking the path and running towards Lu Lin's house.

The pedestrians on the street looked at the mother and daughter with blood on the horses in amazement, and when they saw Princess Wuning with a terrible scar on her face, they couldn't help but point their fingers, and ugly words drilled into the ears of the mother and daughter from time to time.

After her face was destroyed, Princess Wuning never showed her face in front of the public, covering her face with a green veil all the year round, even on the night of marriage, she appeared in front of Bai Haoqing with a green veil......

Her skin is already fair, and she has not seen sunlight all year round, which makes her skin more morbidly pale, and the scars on her face are more and more obvious. So for a while, the whole street looked at her, and the mocking voice made Princess Wu Ning's whole body tremble.

A few gentlemen walked towards them, saw Princess Wuning on horseback, pointed at them and laughed mercilessly: "The ugly lady who came here dares to come out in broad daylight and scary......"

"Shut up!"

Shui Qingqing's eyes were fierce, and she raised the whip and slammed it on the man's face, and whipped a few whips, until the man cried wolf on the ground.

looked at Shui Qingqing as if she was going to eat people, so no one dared to say those ugly words anymore. But someone recognized Shui Qingqing, pointed at her and shouted: "Isn't this the daughter of the Sheng family who married into the Hou Mansion in linen and filial piety before?" Yesterday, I heard that she seduced the Marquis of Dingguo, had an affair with her brother-in-law, was kicked out of the Hou Mansion, and left home, how could she come back again......"

"Oh, yes, I heard that she took the initiative to ask Hou Ye to meet her tryst outside, Mrs. Hou thundered and drove her back to the Sheng family overnight, and sent scissors to the Sheng family on the second day, so that she could cut her out of the house and go to the Buddha to admit her mistakes......"

"It's shameful. I'll just say, when the eldest prince Mei died, she insisted on marrying into the Hou Mansion, that is, she was not dead to the Hou Mansion, and tried her best to stay in the Hou Mansion to seduce the Hou Lord......"

"Shouldn't such a shameless prostitute be parade through the streets and soak in the pig cage, why should she still let her swagger through the market here and corrupt the atmosphere......"

More and more unbearable foul words drilled into the ears of the mother and daughter, and Princess Wuning's heart became more and more sad, and the corners of her mouth overflowed with blood again.

Shui Qingqing's eyes breathed fire with hatred. She didn't care about these people's words at all, she just wanted to send her mother to Lu Lin for rescue as soon as possible, because she felt that her mother's body was getting weaker and weaker, and she couldn't even sit steadily, and she didn't even answer her when she spoke......

The panic in her heart made Shui Qingqing on the verge of despair, but the people who were watching the excitement gathered more and more, and they actually surrounded her, but even blocked the way ahead.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way...... Get out of the way, my mother is dying...... I'm going to take her to see a doctor to save her life......"

Shui Qingqing screamed hoarsely at the people who scolded her, and shook the whip in her hand vigorously, trying to force those who were blocking the way back, but her crazy and desperate actions, in the eyes of those people who watched the excitement, not only did she not sympathize, but only scolded her more and more for being rampant and unrepentant.

In the end, even if she reported the name of Wujing Mansion and Princess Wuning, no one believed it, and they all laughed: "Princess Wuning's status is extremely noble, how can she be in the same league with an unbearable person like you." It's a lie......"

And those who were whipped by her hated picked up the stones and rotten vegetable leaves on the side of the road and smashed them at Shui Qingqing's face.

Shui Qingqing didn't care about the stones that were thrown, and raised her hand to block her mother's body. The stones and leaves all smashed into her face, smashing her into a blue nose and swollen face.

The horses couldn't pass, and Shui Qingqing, who was forced to be helpless, had to get off the horse, picked up the dying Princess Wuning and walked forward, letting those people point at her nose and scold, and even worse, spit on her, but Shui Qingqing didn't care about anything, just ran forward with her mother on her back.

Seeing that Shui Qingqing had no whip in her hand, the previous gentlemen surrounded her, saying that Shui Qingqing hurt people and wanted to drag her to the official mansion.

Shui Qingqing looked at the person who was blocking her path again, and was about to speak, but she didn't know who reached out and pushed her hard, pushing Princess Wuning on her back to the ground.

Watching the mother and daughter roll to the ground, everyone around them burst into laughter.

At this time, in a teahouse room on the second floor of the street, the mother and daughter who were watching the play while elegantly tasting tea saw this scene, and they also laughed out loud at the same time.

Yang saw that his daughter finally smiled, and said proudly: "Mother took you out to watch this good show today, does it make you happy?" ”

It turned out that although Bai Lingwei instigated the old lady to drive Shui Qingqing out of the mansion before, she herself was also ordered by Mei Zijin not to return to the mansion again, so she was actually like Shui Qingqing, and she was also driven out of the Hou Mansion by Mei Zijin. was so angry that she almost smashed everything in the house, and even hated Shui Qingqing to the core, thinking that everything was done by Shui Qingqing at the instigation of Mei Zijin, otherwise, for Yun'er's sake, how could Mei Zijin do this to her?

The next day, she sent a letter to Mrs. Hou and asked the old lady to help persuade Mei Zijin, but the old lady who had promised to protect her before actually asked her to stay at her mother's house for a while with peace of mind, but she didn't say anything else.

In this way, wouldn't it make Bai Lingwei crazy!

Her son has just become a son of the last life, and she is still looking forward to being Mrs. Hou, how can she be kicked out of the Hou Mansion because of a Shui Qingqing? !

However, what makes her even more uneasy is that as long as she has an accident, she will be the first to stand up and find a way to solve it for her, but this time, when such a big thing happened, her mother ignored her, but told her in a panic that she was a trivial matter, and she herself encountered a major event of life and death.

For the first time, Bai Lingwei saw panic on the face of her shrewd mother, she repeatedly asked what happened, but the Yang family didn't dare to tell her that Princess Wuning had already investigated the old things nineteen years ago, and if the matter of killing the Bai family's concubine nineteen years ago was exposed, their mother and daughter would have to die!

The Yang family, who had been in a panic all day, suddenly came back to life in the past two days, and even more so in Fangcai, he took Bai Lingwei out to watch the play with great interest.

said that it was to watch a play, but Yang did not take her to the theater garden, but quietly took her to this small street.

And this small street is usually cold, but today it is unexpectedly crowded with people, and when Bai Lingwei, who was confused, looked at Shui Qingqing, who was surrounded by everyone and scolded her, the evil anger in her heart was finally relieved.

Seeing Shui Qingqing get off the horse, Xia Chan even volunteered to go downstairs to help Bai Lingwei get angry, and pushed Shui Qingqing to the ground from behind, causing everyone to laugh.

Shui Qingqing fell to the ground defenselessly, her knees broke and bleed, her palms and elbows were also painful, and her brain was stunned.

The next moment, she came back to her senses, immediately turned around and crawled to her mother's side, and hugged her tightly in her arms.

Seeing this, Bai Lingwei's eyes flashed, and doubts finally flashed in her heart, and she asked Yang: "This play is interesting, and my daughter is very happy to watch it, but why does this slut keep protecting his wife-is there anything between them?" ”

Yang sneered proudly: "Don't be surprised when you say it, the relationship between them is the same as that between their mother and you." ”

Hearing this, the teacup in Bai Lingwei's hand fell, and she looked at the Yang family in disbelief: "Mother is saying that this slut is actually the daughter of the lady?" So, wouldn't she become the daughter of the Bai family?! ”

Yang smiled coldly: "The daughter of the Bai family?!" Oh, I'm afraid that only this stupid princess will admit it. I don't know if the Bai family recognizes it or not-what's more, do you think their mother will let them live until they go back to the Bai family? ”
