Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Purple Mandarin Duck in the Water

The news that Shaohua was injured and carried into the house soon spread throughout the Li family, but fortunately, the doctor came in time. After looking at the foot injury for Shaohua, his expression was a little heavy, and Ling was so frightened that he hurriedly asked what was wrong.

The doctor was a little flustered by the drink, and hurriedly replied: "The fifth lady is indeed just a sprain, but it hurts the muscles and bones, if you don't take care of it, I'm afraid that it will damage your walking in the future." It took a long time for the doctor to say that the lame was a bad way to walk, but this still made Ling mad.

"Hurry up and use the best medicine to cure her for me! No root disease should be left behind. Thinking that Shaohua might become a cripple, Ling suddenly burst into tears.

How dare the doctor resist, he had to answer resignedly that he would do his best.

Shaohua didn't understand the doctor's words for a long time, but the doctor grabbed her ankle and broke it a few times, which immediately made her sweat on her forehead. Wanhua saw that Shaohua's face was entangled in pain, and she was so anxious that tears were about to fall. Fortunately, the doctor quickly medicated and bandaged her, and Shaohua was so painful that she had no strength to resist.

Waiting for the doctor to bow and leave, Shaohua looked at Ling's red eyes and Wanhua's desire to cry, she smiled and comforted them, "A-Niang, it's okay, I'll be fine." After saying that, he fell asleep tired because of the excessive pain.

If she wanted to talk about pain, she had experienced a pain that made her die or live, but she still had to endure it. That year, she had just turned ten years old, and because she was playful, she was bitten by a poisonous snake. Although she sucked out the snake venom in time, she didn't suck it clean enough, and she didn't find any herbs, so she had to endure the pain and go home for fear of being scolded. As a result, not long after returning home, his face turned blue and his lips turned purple, which frightened everyone's hearts.

She had no choice but to tell the truth, so angry that her father almost slammed the table, but fortunately, there was a barefoot man at that time who specialized in snake venom. When Lang Zhong saw her abscessed feet, he was also startled, and said that the best way was to saw off her legs, otherwise he would die of poison.

Everyone refused, and only begged Lang Zhong to save her life while trying to save her leg. Lang Zhong was naturally shirking, but seeing her injured like this, he couldn't bear it, so he could only propose to use a knife to clean up the poison of the wound, and then apply medicine, hoping to be saved.

But for a while, there was no anesthetic, and a ten-year-old girl watched herself being slashed, which was a cruel thing.

Just when everyone was in a hurry, General Dingxi shouted angrily: "If you have the ability to get into trouble and get hurt, you have to have the ability to endure the pain, then let the snake venom attack." This sentence is very excessive, but it is very effective in arousing her desire to survive. It was that time of scraping and healing that made her still unable to forget what it means to live and not want to die.

But when he remembered that he had survived like this at that time, Shaohua felt that there was nothing that he couldn't bear.

Shaohua seemed to return to the time when he was scraping poison and healing in his dream, watching his limbs being hugged by his parents and brothers, biting the cloth in his mouth, and his tears and sweat flowed in pain, Shaohua couldn't help but shiver, as if he could empathize with him in his dream. I can only be glad that the antidote in Na Langzhong was very effective at the beginning, and she was eye-catching enough to suck out most of the snake venom earlier, so she barely saved her life.

When Lang Zhong confirmed that her life was worry-free, she was relieved and didn't even have the strength to laugh. I wanted to proudly prove to my father that I wasn't so fragile, but when I looked up, I saw my sister's tearful face.

Gradually, Shaohua suddenly felt that her sister's crying became clearer and clearer, as if it was in her ears. Her eyelids twitched a few times, and she opened her eyes faintly, to find that she was back on the bed, and her clothes were changed.

Turning his head, Xin Zixuan's eyes were full of tears.

Shaohua's heart was stagnant, she had seen this scene in her dreams, and she immediately became sad, tears flowed, and it seemed that she could fall out at any time.

Xin Zixuan found that Shaohua had woken up, immediately wiped her tears, and leaned over nervously: "Wu Niang, are you okay?" ”

Shaohua struggled to get up, but was held down by Xin Zixuan and refused to let her do it. She didn't have much strength around her, so she had to lie down on the bed obediently and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, why are you here, don't cry!" Ouch! I'm fine, but I twisted it a little and didn't tighten. "It's okay that Shaohua is not comforted, but a comfort makes Xin Zixuan's tears fall even more fiercely.

She was suddenly a little overwhelmed, but fortunately, Hongling was by her side to help comfort Xin Zixuan.

Xin Zixuan felt that she had lost her temper, so she hurriedly wiped her tears, and said with some disgust: "How can I not come, as soon as I heard that you were carried in, my heart fluttered." If it weren't for something in the hospital, I would have come right away. Seeing Shaohua smiling a little innocently, Xin Zixuan sighed, "As soon as I came, I heard Chu He crying in the courtyard, and I was so scared that something happened, and she said that you just fainted in pain." ”

Xin Zixuan didn't say Chu He's worries, she, like Shaohua, didn't think it would come true at all.

"Didn't you say you went to the Guoan Temple to offer incense, how can you be hurt like this?" Xin Zixuan touched Shaohua's hand, only to find that she even had gauze wrapped around her arms, which made her even more nervous.

Shaohua hurriedly dodged her hand and said awkwardly: "It's okay, I just fell on the steps accidentally, it's okay!" You see, it's not broken yet. ”

"Bah, baba, children's words!" Xin Zixuan glared at her angrily, and Shaohua immediately stuck out his tongue. "You're still laughing! This face is the most important thing for a lady, you actually said it so indifferently! ”

"What's the matter, I really care, it's not for this face to be hurt." Shaohua didn't lie, and in order to protect this face, his whole body was curled up. I thought to myself, even if I broke a bone and bled out, it was still better than being disfigured.

Therefore, God still took care of her, at least let her wish come true. Although there was no fracture, the foot injury was enough to make her uncomfortable for a while.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm not good!" Shaohua rubbed over and pillowed his head on Xin Zixuan's lap.

Seeing that she still had the strength to be coquettish, Xin Zixuan's heart fell back into her stomach. Looking at her, I couldn't help but feel a little bitter in my heart, how familiar she was, but things were wrong. Xin Zixuan gently pushed the hair behind her ears for her, and gently looked at her contentment: "Sister-in-law is the best for me." ”

"You let Sanniang hear what you said, and I'm going to talk about you again." Xin Zixuan was amused by her childish words, and was busy saying good things for Wanhua: "Although Sanniang loves to nag you, she is still good for you in her heart." I just saw her go to the kitchen to decoct the medicine for you in person, you, you will get into trouble, if only Sanniang was half well-behaved. Shaohua was a little unhappy and pouted, but he was still very happy when he thought that he had two sisters by his side so well.

Shaohua looked up and saw that Xin Zixuan's face was full of anger, and his unstable temperament did not stop because of the injury, and he couldn't help but tease: "Huh? My sister-in-law's face is good, is there any happy event? As he spoke, his gaze fell to Xin Zixuan's belly.

Xin Zixuan was so angry that her indecent appearance was full of embarrassment, and gently pinched her cheek, "Where are your eyes?" ”

Seeing that her sister-in-law was getting along in harmony and playing and playing, Hongling was also happy, and couldn't help but say: "Now that there is no one less eye-catching person around, the young lady is naturally in a good mood." ”

Xin Zixuan immediately put on a smile and glanced at Hongling preparedly, Hongling immediately pursed her lips alertly, lowered her head, and took two steps back.

"Who is the eyesore?" Shaohua looked at Hongling's appearance, and knew that he couldn't ask why, so he had to look at Xin Zixuan, "Could it be ......?"

Xin Zixuan coughed and said to Hongling: "You go and see if the third lady needs help." ”

"Yes." Hongling immediately left

Shaohua was aroused by Xin Zixuan's mysterious appearance, and struggled to get up, but she ran into an injured leg, which made her frown. Xin Zixuan was worried and unhappy. Annoyed her, carefully inspected the wound before re-folding the quilt for her. Shaohua couldn't cry or laugh, Xin Zixuan took care of her like a milk baby, and pulled the quilt to her chest to gently comfort her a few times.

Her eyes were a little moist, she smiled, swallowed back her tears, and didn't forget to urge: "Sister-in-law, tell me quickly, is it a purple mandarin, what's wrong with the purple mandarin." ”

In recent days, she has been confined to Biwuxuan by Wanhua, and she has no time to find Xin Zixuan, and she doesn't know the follow-up development of the two aunts. finally had time, but went straight to Taoyuan and fulfilled Zhou Yan's wish, which can be regarded as a good thing.

It's just that looking at Xin Zixuan's eyebrows, there must be a lot of twists and turns to talk about, thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Xin Zixuan got up and looked around, sent all the people in the house out, and then walked back and sat on the stomach next to Shaohua's bed.

First, he exhaled leisurely, looking unhurried, and Shaohua was anxious. Only then did she slowly open her mouth: "She lost Aunt Chun's child, and when A-Niang knew about it, she was angry, so she got rid of her." ”

"Huh?" Shaohua exclaimed, Xin Zixuan hurriedly covered her mouth, and blamed her for being too exaggerated with her eyes. Shaohua nodded obediently, pulled down Xin Zixuan's hand, and asked mysteriously: "Whose child, where is the child......

She clearly remembered that it had not been long since Li Sijin had taken a concubine, could it be that she had won the lottery so quickly? If this is true, Xin Zixuan is afraid that she will die of depression, she has been through the door for so long, and there is no news in her stomach at all, and there is movement when an aunt comes up.

Xin Zixuan looked at Shaohua's face and knew where she was going, and pursed her lips a little unhappily, "Naturally, it's not your eldest brother's, it's her man's." When Xin Zixuan said this, Shaohua remembered that Chunrong was married, and the pioneer man was not dead.

Since ancient times, there has been a habit of women remarrying their husbands, especially making concubines cheaply, which is a common thing. Some wealthy families will give their concubines as gifts to others, so that they can be praised for their elegant things. It's just that those concubines are all little ladies with status, and they can't help themselves when they are transferred, and it is inevitable that they will be given away even if they are pregnant, and the child will be born in the second family. Such a concubine is much lower than those born to an aunt who follows a person from beginning to end.

If you want to divide the children of rich and noble families into three, six, nine and so on, the descendants are naturally the most noble, followed by concubines like Jinhua, and those children born by concubines who are given as gifts, basically have no chance to have children, but where there is, most of them are given away or treated as domestic slaves. Even if it is Lang Jun, the clan will not admit it, let alone have a chance to inherit.

"However, it is still bitter Aunt Chun, such a fresh life." Xin Zixuan didn't blink her eyes when she sighed. She knew in her heart that she couldn't let the child trap the wolf, and the purple duck was this wolf.

When she accompanied Li Sijin to Liangping, the Liu family brought four maidservants, but only brought her back. It's not that Xin Zixuan is afraid of Liu's blame, but that Zi Yuan's rules are so safe that she can't make mistakes, and she thinks that this is due to her temperament. It wasn't until Liu Shi spoke again that Zi Yuan was ready to move again, and even saw Xin Zixuan carrying Chunrong and Qingyi, she dared to argue with them directly.

"How is Aunt Nachun now?" Shaohua asked.

"Her man can be released soon, I let her take care of her body with peace of mind, and wait for her man to come out and leave if she wants to leave." The main room has 100% power over the concubines, and they can decide whether the other party will stay or go without going through their husbands, but it is a pity that it is discounted here in the Ling family.

"What about the other one?" Shaohua thought of the woman with cold eyes, and was a little worried that Xin Zixuan would not be able to deal with it.

"You said Aunt Qing, she is at peace and takes care of Aunt Chun every day." Xin Zixuan was not worried about Qingyi, probably because of the arrogance on her face.

"That's fine." Shaohua didn't ask how the purple duck was caught, but just looked at Xin Zixuan's tough and sharp eyes, and suddenly felt a little strange, is this the price of marriage?
