Chapter 9 Smell the Fragrance and See Through (2) (5,000 words, ask for votes!) )
The mahogany couch in the blue gauze cabinet is covered with a piece of red orangutan felt, a piece of fragrant satin-trimmed safflower felt on a yellow background, and a rattan mat with a collar. There is a bed of five-color crepe mandarin duck quilts and jade-colored yarn pillows with dried flowers such as chrysanthemums and osmanthus flowers.
Su Su stood up, smelled the fragrance, lifted the pillow, and underneath it was a purse with three patterns embroidered with bergamot, peaches and pomegranates with gold thread on a big red background, and the strange fragrance came from this purse. Holding the purse in his hand, the fragrance became even stronger, and after Su Su smelled this rich fragrance, there was a sudden "boom" in his head, and then many fragments flashed.
"Misty dream incense, pick a bowl of mandala petals with dew, put it in a magnetic box, seal the mouth of the box with paper, put it in the retort, cook it non-stop for three days, remove the flower and leave the juice, and dip the flower juice into the powder of one or two tonka incense, one or two Huoxiang, one or two green cinnamon bark, half a tael of finch head incense, half a tael of Suhexiang, half a tael of benzoin, put it in the sun to dry, and mix it with the dew on the poppy flower and pinch the pill for later use. Dreamer ......"
"Dreamers, when they sleep, smell like they are in a bush of strange flowers, so that people linger, get lost in it, and sleep in dreams."
However, the three-year-old villain repeatedly carried the incense recipe passed down from generation to generation, and the beautiful woman next to her looked at her gently, reminding her softly when the villain forgot.
Su Su was obsessed with her memory, and many unheard of incense recipes appeared in her mind, but what made her even more reluctant to wake up was the beautiful woman in her memory-Aunt Su.
There is still a time when the mother and son got along with each other in the memory fragment, Ruan Liulang taught Thirteen Niang to read and write, and Aunt Su looked at the two brothers and sisters from time to time while embroidering on the side, and the mother's love in her eyes was about to overflow.
In Yang Liu's opinion, Su Su was stunned in place after getting the purse, and Yang Liu's heart tightened, "What's wrong with this purse?" ”
Hearing Yang Liu's nervous voice, Su Su woke up from her memory, she thought that a long time had passed, but in fact, it was not even half a minute.
But in less than thirty seconds, the memory of Su Su's body seemed to open the floodgates and began to release floods, and all the memories of the original owner Ruan Sanniang rushed out, almost drowning Su Su.
Fortunately, the memories were interrupted by Yang Liu's voice in time, otherwise Su Su would really be trapped in the memories and couldn't get out.
At this time, looking at the purse in his hand, Su Su threw it on the ground, covered his chest as if muttering to himself, and seemed to answer Yang Liu's question, and said: "Dreamer, when you are sleeping, you smell it like you are in a bush of strange flowers, which makes people linger, get lost in it, and sleep in a dream."
The fragrance stained on the purse is "Lost Dream", which is a fragrance that seems to be poisonous but not poisonous but can kill people.
Yang Liu looked at Su Su and listened to her muttering, although she didn't know what a "dream" was, she understood a few words "Strange Flowers", "Lingering", "Long Sleep", and her face was ugly and abnormal.
Yang Liu looked at the purse on the ground in disbelief, she didn't believe anyone, she would also believe Su Su, Su Su said that there was a problem with this purse, that is, there was a problem. And......
"Recently, I do dream a lot: I am lying in the boundless sea of flowers, the baby in the belly is very lively to kick in the east, stretch out a hand in the west, and the husband sits on the side and looks at our mother, the picture is so beautiful that I don't want to wake up."
But after waking up, the body was very tired, and Yang Liu never thought that there was anything wrong, because both the doctor and the family said that pregnant women would be easily tired after pregnancy, and it would be good to rest more in the first three months.
"Dreams are a harmful secret incense." And it came from the court of the previous dynasty, and those who still know this incense recipe can count it on five fingers. Su Su put this last sentence in his heart and did not say it to Yang Liu.
And the reason why Yang Liu's face is extremely ugly is more because of the origin of the purse itself.
"This purse was sent by my mother-in-law, and it was the fetal charm she asked for in the temple of sending her son."
Because of the sudden acceptance of a large number of memories, Su Su's head was a little uncomfortable, but the most important thing at the moment was Yang Liu.
Su Su rubbed his face vigorously, and still picked up the big red purse on the ground under the stop of Yang Liu.
When I opened it, it was indeed a folded yellow fetal charm.
Su Su looked at it carefully, and was relieved, and was still in the mood to joke: "There is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Yang Liu couldn't help but want to beat her at this time, when is this still selling Guanzi?
However, I have to say that when Yang Liu heard that Su Su could still joke, her heart that had been mentioning it was slightly relaxed, and Su Su could still tease her, proving that the truth was not too serious.
"The good news is that there is no problem with the fetal charm that your mother-in-law begged for, and the problem is in this purse." Su Su meant that Yang Liu understood that this purse was not necessarily made by her mother-in-law, and it was not given to her by her mother-in-law, which may have caused someone to take advantage of the loophole.
Yang Liu preferred to believe this speculation, at least she didn't want to make her mother-in-law, who had been good to her since she got married, as an enemy, and her mother-in-law had no reason to attack her.
"Most of the dreams are foamy or pill-like, but the fragrance of the dreams stained by this purse is emitted by the fabric made into the purse. What does this mean? This shows that before the silk was woven into cloth, it had been boiled with water mixed with the fragrance of dreams. And this incense lasts for a long time, which means that the dye of the dyed cloth is also mixed with dreams. ”
Su Su felt that the costume court dramas she watched when she was bored in her previous life were still quite there.
"The bad news is that the people who do it are very cautious and very patient. It's easy to know who made the purse, but no one cares who weaves the cloth. ”
The reason why Su Su breathed a sigh of relief was also because the person who started it was very cautious, and did not use the dream directly, ordinary people couldn't smell it at all, although it also had an effect in sleep, but the power was not great, as long as the incense source was destroyed, and then slowly recuperated, it would always replenish the mind consumed in the dream.
However, Su Su still broke out in a cold sweat, she also had to thank the person who shot for his caution, if she used the dream directly, Yang Liu had smelled it for at least half a month since she was pregnant, and her mind was slowly depleted, and now she was afraid that she would not be able to keep the fetus.
Thinking of this, Su Su raised his head violently, perhaps the person who shot was targeting the fetus in Yang Liu's womb.
Su Su thought of what Yang Liu said, Mrs. Huang and Aunt Han fell into a mess, and Aunt Han had a difficult birth, causing the fetus in her womb to suffocate to death. When I think of the familiar fragrance on her, it is clearly the fragrance of mandala flowers.
And that Aunt Han also had a reason to attack Yang Liu and the fetus in her womb - to take revenge on Mrs. Huang.
"Maybe you can guess who is trying to harm you?" Susu felt that she was actually very unsuitable to be Forfors, logical reasoning or something, and her IQ was not enough.
Yang Liu also went through it in her mind at this time, she had only been married to the Huang family for half a year, even if she was a bride and didn't care about her family, she had no conflict of interest with anyone.
After she became pregnant, the Huang family wanted to give her up, if anyone wanted to hinder her, it was only the cousin who wanted to marry her father-in-law and kiss her.
However, looking at Su Su's expression, I knew that this "Lost Dream Fragrance" was very special, especially so that Su Su, who had seen countless good things, was very shocked when she saw her.
The cousin of the Huang family is just from a small family, and she can't even tell the difference between sandalwood and agarwood, and Yang Liu is skeptical that she can know and get the possibility of "lost dreams".
And the other person, Yang Liu thinks that she is very likely to be the one who killed her.
"Aunt Han!"
Yang Liu was only suspicious at first, but after saying this person, he saw Su Su's expression and knew that he had guessed correctly.
Su Su rubbed her nose very unladylikely, "You know, my nose is very sensitive to special smells, and I smelled the fragrance of mandala flowers, the main ingredient of dreams, on that Korean style. ”
The dream fragrance is very special, its aroma is condensed but not dispersed, which is why Su Su did not smell the fragrance on the willow, but only found the dream when he entered the blue yarn cabinet.
This kind of special is because of the mandala flower, thinking that Han is just a half-hung incense maker, who touched the mandala with his hand during the incense-making period, and was contaminated with this "condensed but not dispersed" fragrance.
Su Su hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The dream incense is a forbidden incense in the palace of the previous dynasty, and not many people know about it. The reason why I know is because my mother's ancestors were incense makers, and they passed it on by word of mouth, leaving many incense recipes and secrets. ”
Su Su was very talented in making incense, and when she was in Yangzhou, the old lady even invited the incense maker to teach Su Su for a period of time. It was the first time that Yang Liu knew that Su Su had inherited from his ancestors in addition to his talent.
Yang Liu was moved by Su Su's ability to tell her a secret that she had never spoken, and swore in her heart that since this is a secret, let it be sealed in her heart forever. He also showed that he didn't care, and changed the topic: "Since the dream is so special, how did a Korean-style wedding maid know about it?"
Su Su naturally discovered Yang Liu's thoughtfulness, and thanked the little sister for not asking, because Su Su didn't know what she was saying, after all, she was now Su Ho who sold herself to bury her father.
How does she explain that she has a lot of precious incense recipes, but she has fallen to the point of "selling herself to bury her father"?
Hearing Yang Liu's words, he said, "This is also where my curiosity lies." Yang Liu, now that it has involved the grievances of the previous generation and the fetus in your womb, it is not something that the two of us can solve, I think you should discuss it with your brother-in-law. ”
Although Su Su was curious about how the Han family learned about this kind of forbidden incense in the court of the previous dynasty, she also knew that this kind of housework was not mixed by herself, what she could do was to go back for Yang Liu to ask the old lady to ask for a doctor, Yang Liu now lacked a prescription to protect the mind and protect the fetus. Her body is so weak, naturally it is not because of the pregnancy itself, but because of the dream.
As for what to eat and what to vomit, that is Yang Liu's mental problem, about this, Su Su enlightened in many ways, and finally made Yang Liu believe that as long as you exercise properly, don't take the tonic of big fish and meat, the fetus should not be too big, and giving birth to a child is like "playing"! (Hehe, liar!) )
Su Su just came, and he was originally scheduled to accompany Yang Liu for a few days, and because Su Su's "dog nose" smelled such a secret, Yang Liu didn't want Su Su to go, so he had to pull Su Su from the bedroom to smell the yard and then to the small kitchen, which made Su Su angry.
However, looking at Yang Liu's pretending to be calm, Su Su touched his nose and still pinched his nose to admit it.
In the evening, except for the old lady of the Huang family, who is not in good health now, the Huang family set up a banquet for Su Su to catch the wind, and the men and women were divided into two tables.
This woman obviously has the favor of a man, the power of a housekeeper, and the guilt of being a family member of the Huang family, but she can treat herself as the master's dowry maid for 20 years, just to be able to "take revenge" one day, what kind of heart and perseverance is this? If it weren't for the victim being Yang Liu, Su Su would really have to praise the "heroine of the female middle school"!
But now, Yang Liu and the fetus in her womb are still the most innocent, and Su Su feels that her docile face has also become disgusting. In particular, Mrs. Huang's maiden family is just a merchant, what can her dowry maid come from? How do you know about the mystery?
Such a venomous snake lurking in the dark, if it weren't for Su Su's sensitive sense of smell, the murder of Yang Liu and the fetus in her womb would have been just a "difficult birth".
After eating, Su Su rested in the guest room, and after Qiqiao and Linglong served Su Su to wash, Su Su scattered his hair and half leaned on the side of the bed, thinking about the "secret news of the Huang family" that he deduced from Yang Liu's few words when he talked to Yang Liu in the afternoon.
Su Su is a guest, but he doesn't need Yang Liuxiang to accompany him, as the main family, he also has to come over to say hello, so the brother-in-law of the Huang family, who went out to check the accounts, returned home early, and asked for the best table from the largest restaurant in Tong County.
After lunch, Su Su set aside time for the two of them, and went to the guest room to rest, Yang Liu called Xianggong back from the outer courtyard and told him the original Su Su finding.
Yang Liu told her father-in-law about the matter, his face changed instantly, and he believed his daughter-in-law's words without any suspicion, Su Su and Yang Liu didn't expect that the brother-in-law of the Huang family not only knew about the "dream", but also saw it with his own eyes.
But it turned out that the ancestor of the Huang family was just an ordinary farmer, and he could have such a big business today because the ancestors of the last six generations took a palace maid who escaped from the palace when the previous dynasty died.
This palace maid is one of the palace maids who served the last queen of the previous dynasty, and in order to remain incognito, she married the ancestor of the Huang family who was nearly thirty years old because of her poor family at that time.
can be a palace maid next to the queen, and can escape from the palace when the country is lost, it is naturally not an ordinary woman, let alone a good stubble.
This grandmother of the Huang family not only has extraordinary knowledge, but also brought a lot of jewelry with her when she escaped, and after getting married, she helped the ancestors of the Huang family make a fortune and became a valuable landlord and squire.
But also responded to the sentence, "When a man is rich, he becomes bad", the ancestor of the Huang family was only fifty years old, and he accepted a sixteen-year-old concubine who entered the door, and the concubine gave birth to a big fat boy within a year of entering the door.
The old man's words of love for his son are really true, coupled with the "pillow wind" of the beautiful concubine, the ancestors of the Huang family are also afraid that they will not have it, and the little concubine will suffer in the hands of his wife, so he wants to divide the eldest son, and the family property is still half of the son-in-law and the concubine.
The Huang family can have such a prospect, it is all the credit of the big palace maid of the Huang family's housewife, the ancestor of the Huang family is just a false name, and now he is coaxed by the concubine, and he still wants to "revive the husband".
That Huang family's mother didn't care about such a "thing" as a concubine, but now she even kicked her nose in the face, she just didn't know what to do.
As I said before, this person is not a good stubble, and the beautiful concubine first had a bad disease, and it was gone within a year; The concubine was only three or four years old, and the wind chill was gone.
The ancestors of the Huang family experienced the double blow of the death of their concubine, suffered a stroke, lingered on the hospital bed for two or three years, and looked at the wife who was respected by the whole family as the "ancestor", leaving behind the widow of "thirty words before you can take a concubine". Ended with hatred.
And the mother of the Huang family, soon after the death of the ancestor of the Huang family, slept in a dream, leaving a long suicide note, explaining everything to her only son, leaving a dream incense recipe that called the concubine and herself both killed, only said "Although it is a harmful thing, it is a generation of strange fragrance, I have it, I can't let it die in my hands, and future generations will pass it on to the good ones." ”
But since the Huang family beat that ancestor, it has been passed down from generation to generation, so this incense recipe is only secretly circulated in the hands of the head of the Huang family.
Today's head of the family is Yang Liu's brother-in-law's father, as for why Han can know, it can only be said that "love defeats all", when he heard Yang Liu say this in an aria, Su Su's heart was broken, this kind of "I would rather lose the world than a her" tone, I really accept it!
As for how Yang Liu Xianggong knew about the dream, this involved some things.
After Mrs. Huang gave birth, her health has been poor, which gave Han an opportunity. When Han was pregnant, the uncle of the Huang family, also known as Yang Liuxianggong, was only three years old, because his mother was not in good health, and he had been taken care of by the nurse.
On that day, Mrs. Huang and Mr. Huang quarreled, Han and Mrs. Huang wrestled together, and a lot of blood flowed out of their bodies, and even their skirts were soaked.
After he recovered from his illness, he was personally raised by the old lady of the Huang family, that is, his great-grandfather, as the head of the next generation of the family, everything he knew that he should not know was told by his great-grandfather one by one.
Naturally, it includes the secret history of the ancestors and the fragrance of dreams, and the old lady Huang also warned him to be careful about the embankment, and the Han family, who took care of him more than his biological mother, or how to say that "people become old and fine".
Therefore, when his father was either beating or scolding him, with the support of his great-grandfather, Yang Liu Xianggong could still go out to run a business with a large sum of money and earn back his own business.
Yang Liu and Su Su have a close relationship, which involves the Huang family's ugliness and the reputation of the ancestors, naturally can't say too much with Su Su, some of the natural vague and vague brushes that are not suitable for saying, but Su Su was raised by Mrs. Song herself, and lived in the modern era of the information explosion in her previous life, according to Yang Liu's words, you can restore the beginning and end of the story, and even speculate some details.
When Su Su told Yang Liu what he speculated, Yang Liu's shocked look already showed that Su Su's speculation was basically correct, and it was really a big pot of dog blood.
Su Su stayed at Huang's house for three days, made an appointment with Yang Liu, and gathered in Sui'an Hall on August 16, and then she returned to her Zhuangzi.
Before leaving, Han, who didn't know that he had been exposed, still followed Mrs. Huang submissively, and Mrs. Huang, who already knew the inside story, could also tell her to prepare two carts of food for Su Su without changing her face, only to make Su Su sigh: Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills - these are a group of experienced extras!
