Fu Tingyun was woken up by the heat.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw four or five toads crouching beside her face with their snow-white bellies...... She screamed and scrambled to her feet.

The toad was frightened and jumped into the grass with a "plop".

Fu Tingyun let out a long sigh of relief, feeling a hot pain in his throat, top-heavy and his eyes were dazzled.

She, isn't she dead? How can there still be consciousness?

Fu Tingyun was stunned and hurriedly looked around.

Overhead, the sun was shining brightly, piercing the eyes of the people, and the locust trees that stretched out of the wall were luxuriant, casting a shadow on the tall and thick wall, and behind the grassy slopes overgrown with weeds and thorns, there was a weedy forest.

Over here...... It's the backyard of Biunan!

How did she end up here?

Is she still alive?

The thought flashed quickly, and Fu Tingyun had already pinched his arm fiercely.

It hurts and leaves a red mark.

She took a few more steps.

The shadow moves with her.

The nurse said that ghosts have no body, and they will be scattered when they are exposed to the sun.

Fu Tingyun stretched out his hand.

In the sun, the hands are white and almost transparent, and the pink nails shimmer with a pearl-like sheen.

She squinted at the white sun and cried with joy!

Still alive...... She's really alive......

But the joy of the rest of his life lasted only a moment, and he was shattered by the pain in his neck.

The dark and uninhabited kitchen, the big strong hands, the calm and indifferent gaze, the dying helplessness and despair...... The scene before she fell unconscious came to her mind!

She hurriedly wiped away her tears, shrugging her ears in horror and wariness to look at the surrounding scenery.

There was no figure in the backyard, and there were buzzing insects hovering on the thorn bushes not far away, and the bamboo hats that were dropped casually lay lonely under the old locust tree...... As if nothing had happened, as long as she wore her skirt and climbed up the tree, she could get a glimpse of what was going on outside the wall!

Fu Tingyun felt empty in his heart, and he no longer had the courage he had before!

Is that person gone?

Will it pop up again all of a sudden?

Seeing that she is still alive, will you do it again?

Thinking of this, her hairs stood on end, grabbed the bamboo hat, and ran towards the east......

※※※※※※

The place where Fu Tingyun settled is called Jingyue Hall, in the northeast corner of the main hall of Biyun Nunnery - Daxiong Treasure Palace, it is a two-entry house with a single door and a single courtyard, and the silver weeping willows are planted all around. It is usually empty, and it will only be opened when the daughters of the Fu family go to the nunnery to offer incense or live in a small house.

Instead of taking the main entrance, she took a detour to the east side.

The east wing has a window lattice facing east, because the base of the house is very high, Fu Tingyun can barely touch the lattice pasted with white Korean paper when he stands on tiptoe.

She knocked lightly twice, and the closed window immediately opened.

"Miss Nine," the maid poked her head out, her face full of surprise, "You're finally back!" She said, handing out the small pestle, "Mother Chen came here just now, and brought a few pieces of watermelons from Jingshui Town, saying that they were for you to cool off." She pulled Fu Tingyun's arm and helped Fu Tingyun climb in, "If it weren't for Sister Hanyan pinching her with words, she would have rushed in just afraid...... Scared the hell out of me! She looked like she was about to cry, "If you don't come back, I'll have to go find you!" ”

Fu Tingyun's head was heavy, his body seemed to be filled with lead, and he ran back with the desire to survive. At this time, I returned to my residence without danger, heard a familiar voice, saw a familiar face, and the tense heartstrings relaxed, and I couldn't help but feel weak all over, and I felt hard to stand, and I just wanted to lie down on the bed quickly, and I didn't bother to say a word. But when she heard that Chen's mother had come, she had to cheer up and deal with it: "What about Hanyan?" ”

Her voice was low and dry, very different from her usual crisp and pleasant ears.

"Miss Nine!" Green Calyx looked at Fu Tingyun in surprise, and then noticed a circle of purple-red marks on Fu Tingyun's neck, lined with Fu Tingyun's snow-white skin, terrifyingly hideous, "You, what's wrong with you?" Looking at it again, Fu Tingyun's face was red from the sun, her neatly combed hair when she went out was messy at this time, a few strands were still wet with sweat and stuck to her sideburns, her moon-white sleeves were dirty and messy, and her beautiful blue coarse cloth skirt was torn wide, revealing the moon-white lake silk pants inside.

Fu Tingyun didn't know that she looked embarrassed, but this was not the time to speak, she didn't care about the dirtiness on her body, and fell on the bed: "I'll talk about it later!" ”

Green Calyx came back to her senses, and while stepping forward to help her take off her shoes, she replied to her previous words: "Sister Hanyan and Mother Fan sat in the hall to enjoy the shade and do homely cooking according to your instructions. Several mothers were so enthusiastic that they sat there and didn't move, and no one called me. When Chen's mother came, Fan's mother helped us say a few good words! ”

Fu Tingyun said softly "um" and instructed Lu Cao: "Go get some water, I want to freshen up!" ”

Can't let anyone else see what she's like now!

Green Calyx hesitated: "I'm afraid that fetching water will alarm Mother Chen......"

"I'm back." Fu Tingyun was a little annoyed, and said with difficulty holding back the pain in his throat, "You put down the tent, as long as you don't let them see me!" Does she dare to tease my account? ”

Green Calyx thought.

Also!

In any case, Miss Nine is the master, even if they are the people around the eldest lady, they can't ignore their dignity.

She let out an "oh", put down the tent with her hands and feet, and walked out of the room.

The room was quiet, there was no fiery sun, no shaking heat wave, the pillow had the coolness of porcelain, Xia Yun carried the fragrance of green bamboo, Fu Tingyun breathed a long breath of comfort, and he didn't even want to move his little finger.

But the wounded throat did not let her go, and the burning pain was like fire.

His thin face, piercing eyes, and indifferent gaze appeared in her mind unexpectedly.

It was as if a dark wind was blowing in the house.

The walls of Biyun Nunnery are tall and thick, but he is as flat as he walks on the ground. In the blue sky and white day, she climbed over the wall and was admitted to the hospital like that, and almost strangled her, which shows that Biyun Nunnery is not as safe as she originally thought!

The thought flashed, and Fu Tingyun shivered uneasily.

The sound of stumbling footsteps approached and stopped at the door.

"Thank you two mothers!" Hanyan's soft and sweet voice came in, "Just put the water here—our young lady has been sleeping badly these days, and her mood is a little irritable......"

"Yes, yes!" Mother Fan's thick voice was still very loud even when she lowered it, and she said in a clear tone, "Miss Nine has been wronged these days, so naturally she has to be angry with you, you just bear with it, we are subordinates, and it has always been like this." And he said, "Then we'll go first." Just went to say hello to Chen's mother - Chen's mother had instructed her, and as soon as Miss Nine woke up, she went to talk to her. ”

Hanyan politely sent Fan's mother: "Mom, go slowly!" ”

Fu Tingyun was strange.

When did this Fan's mother get along so well with Hanyan?

The two maids panted and carried the water in.

Hanyan immediately ran to the bed.

"Miss Nine!" She lifted the tent with joy, "You're back!" Then, like the green calyx, he was stunned.

"Clean me up first!" Fu Tingyun struggled to get up.

Han Yan also knew that the most important thing now was not to let people see that Fu Tingyun had gone out.

She helped Fu Tingyun in a little panic, and together with Lu Cao, she helped her loosen her clothes, distribute them, and serve her to sit in the pine bathtub and help Fu Tingyun wash her hair.

Fu Tingyun closed his eyes comfortably, but his heart kept tumbling like boiling water.

Zuo Junjie, a despicable and shameless villain, if he hadn't been talking nonsense, how could she have ended up in such a situation!

As soon as she thought of this, she gritted her teeth, eager to curse him a few words before she could relieve her anger.

This matter has to start with the lobby sister-in-law Zuo.

The sister-in-law in the lobby married into the Fu family with the tablet of Fu Tingyun's brother in the lobby. In the past 20 years, she has been filial to her in-laws, harmonious and concubine, loving her sister-in-law, raising heirs, virtuous and virtuous, and praised by everyone, not to mention the Fu family, that is, the people of Huayin County mentioned this grandmother, they were all in awe, and they did not dare to slack off in their words. So when her younger brother Zuo Junjie came to join her because of the death of his parents, despite the tension of the Fu family's six-room cohabitation house, the eldest uncle still vacated a three-room courtyard facing north and south in the southeast corner of the outer courtyard for Zuo Junjie to live in, and gave the monthly example, pen and ink fees like the heir of the sister-in-law in the lobby, and made clothes for the four seasons, and also let him enter the Fu clan school, and follow the fifth uncle to read and write.

That Zuo Junjie also lived up to his name, he won Xiucai at the age of seventeen and lifted people at the age of twenty-three.

Such an achievement is not surprising in Jiangnan, where the literati are at its peak, but it is rare in the northwest, which relies on the division of the north and the south, and it is eye-catching.

At this point, in the eyes of outsiders, the Fu family has brought in and out of talents like Zuo Junjie, and has a reputation for being virtuous and cherishing talents, so he should be proud of Zuo Junjie; Zuo Junjie has a bright future with the support of the Fu family, and he can revitalize the lintel of the Zuo family, and he should be grateful to the Fu family. In reality, however, this is not the case at all.

The Fu family is the most famous family in Huayin, and it is known for its strict boudoir, Zuo Junjie defected to the Fu family and wanted to marry the daughter of the Fu family.

can kiss and kiss, and have the help of his wife, the sister-in-law in the lobby is naturally willing. It's just that the daughter of the Fu family has never worried about getting married, although Zuo Junjie is tall and handsome, he is a white man, he has no long things, and he lives on the relief of the Fu family, and he can't open his mouth when he gets married.

But together with this thought, I couldn't suppress it, and I couldn't help but have some expectations in my heart, so I didn't say goodbye to Zuo Junjie.

It wasn't until Zuo Junjie fell for the show, and took advantage of his grandmother's birthday that the sister-in-law in the lobby came out half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Who is Grandmother? has been in the Fu family for decades, where can I not hear the meaning of this eldest grandson's daughter-in-law!

It's just that Zuo Junjie's family background is too thin.

If it was someone else, this matter would have been dealt with a few words on the scene with a smile, but it was the sister-in-law in the lobby who spoke, and the grandmother thought about how to give her a face, and called the eldest aunt to discuss, wanting to marry the second cousin from the long house to Zuo Junjie.

The second cousin is the same age as Zuo Junjie, although she is a concubine, she has been raised under the knees of the eldest wife since she was a child, reading and writing, a female red needle, and a housekeeper settling accounts, just like the lobby sister.

The eldest aunt was a little hesitant.

Shaanxi Senator Hao Jianfeng died of illness and had no children under his knees, and there was a flattering person who wanted to be this big matchmaker, and handed over a message to his eldest aunt, saying that Hao Jianfeng was about to be promoted to Shandong political envoy and wanted to protect this family business for his second cousin.

Although marrying in the past is to fill the house, Hao Jianfeng is more than 20 years older than his second cousin, but Hao Jianfeng was born in the two lists, and he is about to be tired of being a third-grade official, and he has no heirs, so it is always a good thing for the Fu family, who has not been a feudal official for several generations.

The eldest aunt wanted to agree, but at that time, the eldest uncle was in charge of the affairs of Chuanze, Pichi, bridges and roads, vehicles and ships, weaving, bond deeds, and measuring instruments and weighing instruments.
