Chapter 80: Purgatory (I)

The fourteenth elder brother sent me back to the Niu family, but as you can imagine, the Niu family was in chaos immediately. Not to mention how terrifying Fourteen's bloody appearance was, the mere appearance of me lying in Fourteen's arms and dying was enough to scare the ups and downs of Niufu. Not to mention the shocking words of Fourteen: "Leave me alone, Gege she has been hit by a poisoned arrow, take her down to heal!" "I have no doubt that Mrs. Tong's blood pressure will rise suddenly.

"Prepare a secluded room for me, and prepare what I need for Tiantian." As I commanded, I warned, "I can't be disturbed by anything when I expel the poison, please stay away!" "If they see me "detoxifying" the process, what else will I sing?

The fourteenth elder brother probably heard from the tenth that my method of detoxification was very strange and terrifying, and it was easy to believe it, and immediately said to my Amma: "Do as she tells you, quickly!" ”

I was relieved that he carried me into the back room - this time he finally did something that was slightly more constructive to me.

As soon as I entered the secluded room, Tian Tian had already prepared what I wanted, "Tian Tian, you go outside and guard, don't let anyone disturb my healing, otherwise- Tian Tian, I will put my life in your hands!" I gave Tiantian a dose of importance, and I believe that she will definitely swear to guard the door to the death, so she can go in to "expel the drug" with peace of mind.

I had to prepare charcoal, ice, milk, ginger, and a lot of Chinese herbs and bath water that I casually reported - in fact, the only ones that worked for me were charcoal fire and ice cubes, and the rest I just wanted to confuse the public so that others could not guess what I was trying to do.

I remember that when I watched the Yongzheng Dynasty, the fourth elder brother also used my trick to avoid trouble. Now when I really arrived in the Qing Dynasty, I don't know if the fourth elder brother has used this trick, but now I have to use this trick.

Sitting quietly in front of the charcoal fire and roasting my body, letting the sweat marinate the wound on my shoulder, I closed my eyes and forced myself to ignore it - if I didn't toss half of my life this time, then once I entered the palace, I would take my whole life. The fact that people kept coming to visit me outside the house scared me to the core, but they were all resolutely blocked by Tian Tian, and I was not in danger for the time being.

It wasn't until my body was red from the roast that I struggled to get up and make my way to the wooden bucket filled with bath water, which was already cold, and I gritted my teeth and poured the whole bucket of ice into it, and then jumped into it too.

"Ah——!h Although I was mentally prepared and gritted my teeth early, the cold still made me scream unbearably, and I must have heard my creepy screams throughout the Niu family.

A sweet cry came from outside the door: "Fourteenth elder brother, the slave begs you, you can't go in, you will get in the way of the young lady!" ”

"Get out of the way, didn't you hear her scream? Don't you care about your master at all? The fourteenth elder brother seemed to be really angry: "Get out of the way, don't let me believe it or not, I'll kill you!" ”

Seeing that Tiantian outside the door was about to be overwhelmed, I wanted to help stop Fourteen from rushing in, but not only was my body soaked in ice water and convulsed, but even my teeth were constantly chattering from the cold, and I could only make a "gurgling" sound.

Seeing that my sacrifice was still going to be broken, and seeing that I was still going to the most miserable situation, I finally broke down. Why, why am I being compared to being in such a situation? Why, why do I just want to live well, but my life is so difficult, so miserable?

"Fourteenth elder brother, the slave is more worried about Miss than you, Miss is now the only relative of the slave and the maid. The slave begged the fourteenth elder brother, just as the slave and maid believed in Miss, and believed in Miss once! Tian Tian hugged the leg of the fourteenth elder brother and begged.

My consciousness was starting to blur, and I didn't care if Fourteen would break in, and all the disturbing sounds outside were gradually moving away from me—if it was going to be so hard, why don't you let me die!

Eventually, even the cold feeling faded away, and my consciousness drifted into a dream, a dream that I would never ever wake up again.

It was the summer of my sophomore year, and it was rare that it was pouring rain in Beijing, which has always been dry and rainless. I'm glad I've been waiting for this rain for so long – I finally have the chance to go out with that umbrella again.

When I opened the umbrella, it was as if his gentle voice immediately resounded around me, still so low and so pleasant, as if he was still standing beside me, still saying, "Miss, don't you have an umbrella with you?" ”

I also sometimes find myself ridiculous, and for him it might just be a dispensable encounter, right? But I thought about this encounter day and night for more than a year, and I thought about meeting him again, and I didn't even know what his name was and where he came from.

Walking in the rainstorm with an umbrella, I couldn't help but laugh at myself when I saw the only few pedestrians on the road who were also in a hurry—probably only a neurotic like me in the whole world would like this kind of weather, right? It turned out that I had fallen hopelessly in love with the rain, this umbrella, and that kind of encounter.

I was in the middle of a sweet memory when suddenly a car was coming towards me, and by the time I reacted, I couldn't avoid it. At this time, ordinary people would cover themselves with umbrellas to block the splashing muddy water, but I am different, at that moment I only thought of one thing, that is, the umbrella must not be soiled.

I immediately turned around to collect my umbrella, only to see that the high-speed vehicle splashed muddy water more than a person high, and instantly poured me through, leaving only the umbrella I held tightly in my arms.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, miss, are you alright?" The car came to a stop after a dozen meters, and I saw him again - only this time he was playing the role of a saboteur. But I don't care, compared to seeing him again, my current embarrassment is nothing.

He obviously forgot about me, and still explained anxiously: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was in such a hurry because I was in a hurry, I really didn't mean to!" Seeing that I was still staring at him without saying a word, he became even more anxious: "Why don't I accompany you to buy another set of clothes!" ”

I still stared at him and didn't speak, I don't know why, I liked to see him anxious - it turned out that I was also a very vicious kind of woman. As he looked anxiously at my face, as he cautiously inquired about my attitude, a feeling of being cherished by him rippled in my heart, though only because of his guilt.

"If you say what you want, I'll promise you!" Seeing that I was silent, he reluctantly proposed.

"Didn't you say there was an emergency?" I suddenly reminded, "Then why don't you leave quickly?" "Although I still want to listen to his voice and talk to him more, I remember that he is in a hurry, how can I bear to delay his time any longer - it must be a very urgent thing to let a good old man like him drive!

I resolutely turned around and rushed into the endless rain, "Goodbye! In his astonishment and incomprehension, he disappeared into the pouring rain.

Mr. "Umbrella", this time I will leave you a back, I wonder if you will remember me as much as I remember you?
