Chapter 1: First Snow (1)
The winter of the fifth year of Dafeng Xiyou came very early, just after the winter, a heavy snow fell from the sky, one after another, and lasted for two days and two nights.
It was getting dark, Cai Mingfei was holding a broken firewood knife that had long been missing, carefully looking back and forth along a steep slope to calculate, and after making sure that everything was correct, she walked up the mountain road, standing on the top of the snow-capped mountain, squinting at the small Wujia Village at the bottom of the mountain. The gray Wujia Village is like a dirt on a piece of snow-white silk cloth in the brilliant snow color of silver, which looks abrupt and dazzling.
The life of the peasant family is difficult, a stitch and a thread, a chestnut and a salary are not easy to come by, not to mention the lamp oil that requires their own women to spend a lot of energy to buy shoes and socks, work hard to change a few coppers, and walk more than ten miles to get back. So even if it was late, no household was willing to light an oil lamp, including Wu Xiansheng, a wealthy family in the east of the village, whose house was still dark.
Cai Mingfei looked to the east of the village, where a small courtyard stood alone on a gentle slope, separated from the rest of the village, which was quite different. It was her temporary home, and it was also the house of the man who drove her to chop wood early in the morning without sympathy on this day when the wind and snow first stopped.
You must have started to be anxious at this time, right? But I won't be in a hurry to find her. And wait, that one day she will make them pay back twice as much for her sin. Cai Mingfei smiled coldly, took out a vegetable dumpling from his arms that was frozen hard, and there was no food in sight, and fed it into his mouth, and took a vicious bite. The vegetable dumplings were frozen dry and hard, she tried too hard, and a mouthful of snow-white and neat millet teeth was a little overwhelmed, and the root of the tooth was suddenly soaked with blood, and there was a mouthful of blood.
It seems that fruits and vegetables are eaten too little and there is a lack of vitamins. She shook her head, put the vegetable ball on a stone with thick ice, and smashed it with the back of the wood knife a few times, and the vegetable ball suddenly fell apart. Be a good person, even if the things are not good, it is better to eat than not to eat, this is still secretly stuffed to her by Fang'er when she went out in the morning. She smiled and ate the only thing that could satisfy her stomach, and although she shivered with cold when it first entered her stomach, it quickly added a touch of warmth to her tiny body.
About half an hour later, the lights in the village were lit up sporadically, and a torch came out of the courtyard of the Wu family and stopped in front of the family's door along the road. Finally looking for someone? Cai Mingfei moved his hands and feet and waited patiently. A cold wind rose, and the goose feathers and snow flew down again, and finally, she saw a string of fire dragons coming out of the small courtyard of Wu Xiansheng's house, coming in her direction.
She quickly walked down the mountain, and by the light of the snow, she walked to the steep slope before, raised the firewood knife in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and thought to herself, after cooking for a whole hour, there would be no more tetanus bacteria, right?
Forget it, even if there is, it's fate, they are all people who have died once, she can't live this kind of life anyway, it's better to give it a go. Without thinking, she slashed at the back of her head, a sharp pain that made her frown. Thanks to the long hours of chopping wood, her movements were clean and neat, and the strength was just right, but she just cut her scalp without hurting her bones. She covered the wound with one hand, threw the firewood knife to the side with the other, held her head, and rolled down the steep slope with skillful movements.
Cai Mingfei lay alone in the snow at the bottom of the slope, watching the snow in the sky getting bigger and bigger with her eyes wide open, and a bone-chilling chill penetrated into her bones through her thin cotton jacket, so cold that she couldn't help but want to jump up and give up several times. But she knew that she couldn't give up, she had been planning for a long time, suffering for a long time, rolling down the slope countless times, striving to make that action perfect and extreme, for today? So she gritted her teeth, curled up as much as possible to keep warm, and quietly waited for the person sent by the Wu family to find her.
She was not afraid that those people would not find her, for she was starving, and the little earth dog Ash Gray who had been raised with all her might never find her. The waiting time always passed slowly, as when she had just entered this young body and spent her days recuperating on that musty, broken bed.
At that time, she always couldn't help but think of the events of her past life. She always thought that she would be a happy little woman even if she was not a happy princess. It's a pity that things in the world are always so cold, and the higher you stand, the worse you fall. Overnight, she had nothing, if she was betrayed by her lover and friend, her father died tragically, her mother was seriously ill, and the world collapsed, she still had a trace of the concept of human nature and goodness, and fought hard, then when she was killed by a robber, she had completely given up her previous persistence.
"If anyone does not offend me, I will not offend, but if anyone offends me, I will offend!" Cai Mingfei muttered a sentence and smiled lowly, she must live well, live better than others, and change her fate today. From now on, she will never shed tears, she will let those who are sorry for her shed tears, and kindness will always be superfluous for the wicked.
Dog barking and noisy human voices could be heard in the distance, and she fainted with relief. This body is dead to her biological mother, no matter how unlikable and disgusting it is, she is still the third lady of the Cai family, where does the little Wu family dare to let her die in the snow? What's more, the Cai family's newly appointed wife needs such a thing to suppress the arrogant second aunt's wife. And the man sent by the new lady to see her will arrive no later than tomorrow morning.
As early as more than ten days ago, the eldest son of the Cai family learned the news, and secretly let someone inform her of the news, and the people who came repeatedly explained to her, asking her to cherish this opportunity and behave properly, maybe she can go back. Ming Fei secretly thought, with more than ten days of preparation, where can he impress a person he has never met? Thanks to her planning, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared.
The Wu family asked her to go up the mountain to chop firewood this morning, but she didn't know about it. It seems that the new lady and the second aunt are fighting very hard, and the new lady deliberately concealed the second aunt and wanted to arrest her. How could she not fulfill the wish of the new lady?
Everything is just right.
The first thing Cai Mingfei heard after waking up was Wu Xiansheng's wife Wang, with a little choked and a little helpless, and said in a chatter: "Mother Yu, there is really no way, the third miss is so naughty, on such a snowy day, she had to go to the mountain to set pheasants, and if she didn't let her go, she actually climbed over the wall." ”
"Alas......" With a contrived sigh, Wang Shi cried: "It's all my fault, blame me for not taking good care of her, and I have the trust of the first lady." If she can't wake up, let me die. ”
A slightly majestic mezzo-soprano said, "If the third lady can't wake up, you should fight her fate." Don't think that we just came and didn't know anything, it was clear that you asked her to fetch firewood that she would fall. Grandma Wu, although you are a relative of our house, you must also know what kind of consequences will be caused by the abuse of the official lady who lives in the sojourn and causes injury to death? Even if our old lady is compassionate, I am afraid that no one can tolerate such contempt for their own daughter-in-law. You're too daring! ”
Hey, you don't need her to sue, someone will know what's going on? Ming Fei peeked out from between her eyelashes. I saw a woman in her thirties, wearing a beautiful blue satin and white rabbit fur trimmed cotton skirt, with a golden hairpin on her head and gold earrings hanging in her ears, sitting on a chair next to her bed, with a pair of sharp eyes staring coldly at Wang Shi standing on the side. Behind her, there were two maids of fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing coarse silk clothes and clear eyebrows, looking at Wang's expressions with angry expressions.
Wang, who usually looked scathing, stood tremblingly in the middle of the room at this time, wringing his handkerchief anxiously, his face was full of tears, his eyes were like a rabbit in a trap and turning in panic, and he was about to kneel down for the woman: "It's not about the concubine's body, you have to avenge the concubine in front of the lady!" "Where is the usual majesty of the landlord's wife?
The woman in blue snorted coldly: "You go down first, don't make noise about my young lady." I'll talk about it when she wakes up. "Obviously she is a guest, but she is like a host.
Although this woman's eyes were very raw, Ming Fei still guessed that this should be her father's new steproom, and the powerful mother-in-law next to the Chen family, according to her dress and expression, as well as the two girls around her, who was ordered by the Chen family to come to see her.
Hehe, since this woman is so powerful, she found out the truth about her fall as soon as she came, and scolded Wang mercilessly like this, so she admitted that she would not wake up for the time being, and let Wang suffer a little hard.
She had changed into a soft white silk dress on her body, and there was a hot soup woman lying under her feet, Ming Fei quietly pressed the soft, warm and dry futon under her again, and closed her eyes comfortably. This is not her original cold, dark and damp room, this should be the room of Wang's eldest daughter, this fall is worth it, if as expected, she will not have to return to her dark, damp and cramped room in the future.
There was a burning pain in the back of her head, but it was quickly ignored by her joy. Ming Fei fell asleep, no matter how noisy they were, how noisy they were, anyway, she was much more comfortable for a while, and there were still a lot of things to do next.
Ming Fei slept soundly this night, if she hadn't been woken up and taken medicine, she could have slept for another whole day. No way, this body is too weak, and it has suffered too much.
Yu's mother personally fed Ming Fei the medicine, Ming Fei looked at her pitifully, took the medicine obediently, and thanked her carefully. When Yu's mother wiped the medicinal juice on the corner of her lips for her, she also deliberately pulled her rough hands to Yu's mother's white and tender hands, and smiled gratefully.
This smile, she has practiced many times in front of the basin, sincere and delicate, innocent, and unbearable.
Sure enough, Mother Yu was stunned by her smile, and then touched her head with pity: "Poor young lady, you have suffered such a big crime at such a young age." ”
Ming Fei took the opportunity to look at her innocently: "Did Daddy let you come and see me?" ”
