Chapter 2: Rebirth
Eighteen Niang sat in front of the window, her grandfather's words were still buzzing in her ears, like a bell in the twilight, shaking her heart, as if she was about to vomit out the next moment. The pinched palm had already scabbed, and it inadvertently pulled the wound, and there was a tingling pain.
She, Shen Eighteen, after being told that the deadline was approaching, could still smile at the night banquet guests, this Fan Yang's little lady, I am afraid that there is no more model of a noble girl than her. But what's the use of that?
The same was true in previous lives.
The wind of early spring, warm and cold at first, blew away the white aroma of pear blossoms on his body, and made Eighteen sober up a little. It's been a long time since she's reminisced.
At that time, she was still a noble daughter of the Great Jin Dynasty, and she was not arbitrary in her fresh clothes, she was the daughter of the clan, and she was not as good as her, and she was the only woman in the world who could learn from her master. is to marry someone, and also marry the most outstanding man, and become the wife of the Wang family.
However, even if you have hills and valleys in your chest, you can't stand the rise and fall. In the chaotic times at the end of the Jin Dynasty, the family was in turmoil, and her husband died in battle.
At that time, it was also early spring, she was lying on the small couch, and the double crane hugging pine copper stove on the side was burning with faint incense, and she had not slept so deeply for a long time. When I woke up, I found that I had become a six-year-old child named Shen Jing.
When she first came, she was careful for fear of revealing some horses' feet, so that the people around her could see the flaws, but the old days made her feel sorry for this child. Shen Jing is an abrupt existence in the Shen family's mansion.
She is the daughter of the fifth room, her mother Lu died in childbirth when she gave birth to her, her father Shen Ze has been out for many years and has not returned home, there are two brothers and one sister, but they have never met. It was as if she had been forgotten by her family, and she lived in the Nuo mansion by herself. She didn't understand it at first, but now she understands it a little.
"Eighteen Niang, the night wind is too cold, is it okay for the slave to close the window for you?" The eldest girl Nanzhi picked up the wick that was blown by the wind and asked worriedly. It looks like the epiphany is not bad, but in Nanzhi's heart, only the peony is worthy of their eighteen mothers, not to mention, the Wang clan's wife, must be the peony. The eighteen mothers...... What can I do?
Shen Eighteen came back to his senses and nodded, "Nanzhi, change my clothes for me." ”
Nanzhi plugged in the window, cleaned his hands, and took the new hairpin for Shen Shiba. This hairpin is not visible during the day, but it looks brilliant under the candlelight, and it feels like a warm current slips through in the palm of the hand, and it is a good warm jade.
Shen Shibai flicked the epiphany hairpin, and he was worried again. It was it that disrupted her future.
The peach blossoms outside the window are about to bloom again, but she can't marry Wang Liulang anymore.
She originally thought that now it is a peaceful and prosperous world, she marries the man she likes, becomes the wife of the Wang family, and takes care of the brothers and sisters of this body, which can be regarded as returning the kindness, a beautiful and smooth life, which is what many people can't ask for.
"Eighteen Niang, Qilang was pacing at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, but he didn't come in, I'm afraid that something is wrong, but I want to call him." Beiliu's crisp voice interrupted Eighteen's train of thought, it was really an eventful day, so many people who wanted to see but couldn't see came to her, telling her some secrets she didn't want to know.
The room was warm, and there was an unknown smell of incense, but it was not pungent. The white woolen blanket was spread out a few times, which made him a little cramped, and he came in a hurry, covered in dust and even blood, which seemed very out of place here.
The beautiful maid quietly served a bowl of boiled tea, as if she knew how to escape from the ground, and suddenly disappeared. He urinated on the border with his grandfather, and was used to not coming to these families.
What's more, this sister has never been seen before. It was in Chang'an that he had heard of her good name and heard others say how smart she was. If it weren't for Qin Mei, he would never have wanted to come to Fan Yang. Throwing others aside for thirteen years, the first time they met, they begged for help, Rao is Shen Ting was thick-skinned, but he didn't know how to speak.
"Remove the tea and bring me a pot of wine." Shen Ting was nervous when he suddenly heard a woman's voice. He looked up, a little stunned.
During today's hairpin ceremony, he stood a little far away and couldn't see clearly, he never expected that Shen Jing would look so much like his father. She was taller than ordinary women, a little thin, her skin was white and shiny, her eyes were bright, and just standing there, she had an aura of her own, like a sharp sword, about to stab at her.
She's not weak. Shen Ting thought about it, his whole body tensed, and he couldn't wait to draw his sword immediately.
But Shen Jing suddenly laughed, and the room was full of spring breeze. The tense atmosphere of the right talent is gone.
Shen Ting was looking at her, and she was also looking at Shen Ting. The Shen family is a scholarly family, most of the men are thin and handsome, Shen Ting is not like the Shen family, he is burly, with a tiger's back and a bee's waist, but he is a military general.
"After thirteen years of longing, I finally met my brother. Hearing that the Lu family army defeated the Turks, Eighteen was overjoyed, and thought that this hairpin ceremony, there was no one close to him to testify, but the elder brother rushed over through thick and thin, and the eighteenth ......"
Shen Ting became more and more embarrassed, where did he come for the hairpin ceremony, he obviously came for Shen Qin's marriage. How do you speak?
"Brother came just in time, today my grandfather told me an old thing, and I hope Brother will solve his doubts. Who killed A-Niang? ”
Shen Ting was shocked, stood up suddenly, and his eyes widened angrily: "What did you say?" Who killed you? My mother died by disemboweling your child in order to give birth to you! ”
After he finished speaking, he felt speechless and sat down. Because of this, thirteen years, he has never looked at eighteen.
Laparotomy? Shen Shiba's whole person was stunned, she didn't dare to imagine.
She woke up and laughed angrily: "No wonder the Lu family was slaughtered, and all the people who taught it were stupid and dull people like you." Today, my grandfather said that when he changed the yuan, he encountered an assassin on the road, and A-Niang resisted the enemy alone and was poisoned with a knife; The same is true for the eldest brother, it is difficult to do it. The assassin's knife is really long-eyed, none of the people who were supposed to be killed did not die, but it was the people in our room, the dead and wounded, the aunt is dead, the eldest brother is disabled, who will benefit? ”
After Eighteen finished speaking, the room was silent. Shen Ting was already speechless by the question, he wanted to say that Ah Niang and the eldest brother have martial arts, so they are naturally easy to be recruited, but who in the family does not have martial arts......
Lu's family was slaughtered? What does it mean to be slaughtered? Obviously died on the battlefield......
At that time, my grandmother was seriously ill, and my aunt took her family members to Yuanshan Temple to pray for blessings. On the way back, he encountered a group of bandits. I was only five years old at the time, and my mother hid me in a carriage, and she and her eldest brother fought against the enemy and saved people. ”
Later, when I heard the voices of the people outside, I walked out, and saw A-Niang sitting on the ground, handing over a piece of paper to A-Mo Yuan, and then ...... Then he picked up the knife, disemboweled, and gave birth to you, the eldest brother was unconscious on the side, and there was blood all over the ground, all of which were A-Niang's blood......" Shen Ting said, and he burst into tears.
I took my own child, and I knew how tragic that picture was just by imagining. Shen Shibai couldn't hold back anymore and cried bitterly, as if he wanted to cry out his grievances, including Lu's grievances.
She has been reborn in Da Chu for so many years, and she has never really regarded herself as Shen Jing. She tried her best to become a celebrity in front of her grandmother and a famous noblewoman in the world; Marrying Wang's son-in-law is clearly to follow the traces of his previous life and return to the familiar days step by step. She is afraid, the world is full of Chu people, where is my hometown?
Now she is reluctant to waste every moment that the Lu family has exchanged for her, she is Shen Jing, the Shen Jing of Da Chu. At this moment, she seemed to be truly reborn.
When Shen Ting walked out of the door, his eyes were still red. He only felt that his brain was messing up, he was obviously here to ask Shen Qin what to do about the bad family matter, but he had more reasons in his heart to ask. Who killed A-Niang?
He was stunned, Beiliu stuffed a lantern in his hand, and said softly: "Eighteen Niang said that Qin Niang's family affairs, so you don't have to worry about it, it will not be done." ”
