Chapter 7: Changing Lives
The Lan family has been waiting for Ning Shoubo in the main room.
Seeing him come back, Lan Shi hurriedly asked the girl to bring hot water, and while serving Ning Shoubo to clean his face, he asked, "Have you been to see Qi Niang?" How is she? ”
Ning Shoubo wiped his face with a hot towel and handed the towel to the girl: "Qi Niang doesn't want to wrap her feet, forget it, let her be." ”
"How does this work?" Lan Shi was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "If she doesn't bind her feet, she will bring the reputation of the entire Ningshou Bo Mansion, what about our Yuan Niang?" How much did Yuan Niang suffer to wrap a pair of three-inch golden lotus, I don't want to ruin Yuan Niang's future because of Qi Niang. ”
Ning Shoubo smiled: "No, Qi Niang is only afraid of the future...... I don't have to worry about her reputation ruined, whatever you want, you can slander her vigorously, as long as you don't bring a few Yuan Niang, you can do anything. ”
Lan didn't know why.
Originally, Ning Shoubo supported her like this, she should be happy.
But now, she only felt a chill in her heart.
Qi Niang is Ning Shoubo's biological daughter.
He is so inappropriate, a person who doesn't even have a little love for his own daughter, what will happen to the person next to him?
This kind of thing can't be thought about carefully, and the more you think about it, the more frightening you become.
However, the current situation is not for Lan to think too much.
She nodded: "Well, I see, I'll find a way to minimize the impact of this matter." ”
Ning Shoubo asked the girl to help him spread his hair, comb his hair carefully, and said to the Lan family without replying: "These seven girls in our family are better than the other, you teach them well, you must let them have Ning Shoubo's Mansion in their hearts, have me as a father, and wait for the future, so that they can give the family more help." ”
Lan sat on the sidelines and responded randomly.
"Qi Niang can't teach it back." Ning Shoubo said again: "It's better to use her for some benefits earlier." ”
Lan's heart was in turmoil, and he promised in his mouth, but he was very unhappy in his heart.
"And Cheng Shuo there, you let people watch him, don't let him get close to Qi Niang." Ning Shoubo said another word of advice before going to bed.
Lan Shi followed and went to bed, both of them are old husbands and wives, so naturally there will be no more intimate scenes, just chatting with quilts.
But it was said that Cheng Yanluo was here, and after she returned to the room, she took out the food, ate a little by herself, and put the rest in the food box, ready to get up early tomorrow to eat some.
Put away the food, Cheng Yanluo changed his clothes and wanted to go to bed to rest.
It's just that she was lying in bed and couldn't sleep.
The scenes of her past life flashed in front of her eyes, and the dark, used, betrayed, and humiliated images kept her awake at night.
She tossed and turned, and for a time when the city was broken, she desperately ran out with her husband, and those little feet gave her too much drag, and almost let her die tragically under the hooves of the enemy.
At one time, it was the same clan daughter as her, as well as the women in the palace, and the minister's wives and daughters were captured by the enemy army and raped in front of many people.
For a while, it was her difficult survival with the army.
For a while, it was the pain of her being cut and scraped again.
Thin beads of sweat appeared on Cheng Yanluo's forehead.
She felt uncomfortable pain, pain in her body, and even more pain in her heart, and the feeling of pain to the bone marrow made her convulse all over.
She gritted her teeth and swore a vow in her mouth: "I will be free to pick up this life, I will no longer be bound by anyone, I will not care about all people, fame, status, and glory are nothing to me, I just want to live happily and die happily." ”
Before she had said her vow, she heard a loud bang.
Cheng Yanluo got up and pulled the door open and looked out.
I don't know when the sky has changed.
It turned out that the dark blue sky was gloomy at this moment, as if it could drip water.
Lightning streaked across the sky in the distance.
It's spring now, how can there be lightning and thunder?
Cheng Yanluo frowned, this spring thunder is really strange.
There was another loud bang, and the thunder seemed to explode in my ears.
Cheng Yanluo was startled, and immediately closed the door, and she was nestled on the bed, waiting for the thunder to pass.
However, the thunder in the sky exploded in my ears one after another.
Cheng Yanluo covered her ears, but no matter what she did, the thunder still kept ringing.
Prime Minister Hou Cheng's house
In the back garden, the oil lamps are arranged according to a specific orientation.
Hou Huizhu was dressed in white and sat in the center of the formation.
Master Qing'an held a long sword in his hand, and his feet twirled in the formation with a peculiar, strange step.
There were words in his mouth, and suddenly, he jumped suddenly, and the long sword in his hand pointed directly at Hou Huizhu's eyebrows.
Hou Dagongzi immediately took the blood of Hou Huizhu that he had taken before and dripped it into the oil lamp.
When the blood dripped down, the oil lamp burst into blood-red lights.
In the distance, the thunder was non-stop, and there were faint bursts of phoenix chirping.
Ningshoubo Mansion
Cheng Yanluo only felt as if her heart was being caught, and she just wanted to roll in pain.
This pain......
It's really uncomfortable, as if the soul is about to be pulled away.
Her fine white forehead was already sweating like rain.
"It hurts, it hurts......"
Cheng Yanluo lay on the bed, stretched out his right hand, and looked at the door.
At this time, how she wants someone to come in, to be able to talk to her, to be able to comfort her, to be able to hug her, so that she doesn't have to be so uncomfortable, so lonely.
However, the door was tightly closed.
Not a single one.
Her father, mother, aunt, brothers, sisters, none of them showed up.
Even, even half of the subordinates did not appear.
She lay alone on the bed, enduring the pain that felt like she had been skinned.
Cheng Yanluo gritted her teeth, and the pain hit her in waves, and she suffered little by little.
She can't cry, she can't scream, she can only endure, endure boundless loneliness and pain.
"I swear that from now on, I will be the only one in the world, no relatives, no friends, and no longer believe that there is true love in this world."
Cheng Yanluo was a little confused in pain, but he still used all his strength to curse all this.
In a trance, she seemed to see the phantom of a phoenix.
It was a multicolored phoenix, and it just hovered in her house.
The phoenix seemed to be in pain, and blood-red flames rose from its body, and the flames seemed to burn her to the ground.
Cheng Yanluo stretched out her hand, she wanted to grab the phoenix.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch it.
The phoenix screamed and wanted to spread its wings and fly away.
Cheng Yanluo bit the tip of his tongue ruthlessly and spit out a mouthful of blood.
This mouthful of blood happened to spit on Phoenix's body.
The phantom of the phoenix seems to have condensed a lot.
Little by little, it moved closer to Chengyanluo, and then closer to ......
Prime Minister Hou's Mansion
Master Qing'an's face changed drastically, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, right on the sword he was holding.
It took him two shakes to gain his footing.
"This is a real phoenix ......"
Master Qing'an frowned, took out a piece of rune paper from the bag on his back and pasted it on the sword: "No matter how strong you are, if I want you to come from Qing'an, you will definitely come." ”
He took the sword in his hand and stepped out again.
Ningshoubo Mansion
Cheng Yanluo watched the phoenix approach her little by little, wanting to kiss her, she smiled......
Suddenly, her complexion changed dramatically.
She saw that the phoenix was becoming more and more virtual.
She stretched out her hand to grab the phoenix's feathers, but it was empty.
This is?
What's going on?
