Chapter 9: The Undercurrent is Turbulent
Wen Jinghua listened to Shen Fengjiao's complaints quietly, but the memory in her heart gradually flew away.
When her parents were still alive, Wen Jinghua lived in the best Qiwu Pavilion in the Hou Mansion.
And Wen Jingxian's family, at that time, was just living in the streets and alleys where the children of the Wen family lived in the back street.
Later, his parents died on the battlefield, and Wen Changzhi and his wife moved into the marquis' mansion to attack the lord.
Shen Fengjiao swore in front of all the clan elders that she would treat Wen Jinghua better than her own daughter in the future.
In the first year they moved here, Wen Jinghua still lived in Qiwu Pavilion.
The following year, Wen Jingxian moved in with her.
In the third year, Wen Jinghua was moved out of Qiwu Pavilion by Shen Fengjiao under various pretexts.
Since then, the eldest lady of Zhongyi Houfu has only Wen Jingxian.
Now Wen Jinghua lives in a small courtyard in the northwest corner of the Hou Mansion, called Yunshu Courtyard.
She was originally like what was written in the book, looking at the sky and clouds, and there was no quarrel with the world.
But even if she is indifferent, there are always things that are forced in front of her eyes.
In Shen Fengjiao's eyes, Wen Jinghua was wrong to be alive and panting.
There are always so many ways for her to do it, and there are always so many ways to torture people without a trace.
Three hundred and sixty days a year, the wind, frost and sword are strictly pressing.
In my previous life, it was really bitter and tight.
But Wen Jinghua is no longer the original Wen Jinghua after all.
She has gone through a miserable life, and now she is full of poison from top to bottom.
Faced with Shen Fengjiao's irony that was indistinguishable from the original, Wen Jinghua no longer held back.
She silently shed tears and said: "Jinghua also knows that the Hou Mansion is having a difficult time, and my aunt has not made new clothes for half a month, and she must not even have the money to buy medicine for Jinghua. ”
Shen Fengjiao originally insinuated that what she said was refreshing, but who knew that Wen Jinghua would come to such a remark.
Shen Fengjiao was immediately speechless.
Wen Jingxian was secretly surprised, when did Wen Jinghua become so difficult.
Her words seemed to be crying to show weakness, but in fact, the words were sarcastic.
Shen Fengjiao would cut expensive new clothes every half a month, but here she cried poor and said that she had no money left to take medicine.
Wen Jinghua simply picked out what to say.
Shen Fengjiao stared at Wen Jinghua for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Look at what the eldest girl is talking about, where is our family so poor that we can't afford to treat the girl? ”
Wen Jinghua hurriedly apologized in fear: "Where is my aunt, Jinghua would never dare to be so unfilial, my aunt said this, it is to teach Jinghua to be unhuman! I...
She gasped for breath, her body trembled, and she looked so weak that she was about to faint again.
Wen Jingxian looked at Wen Jinghua's appearance, even if she had some suspicions in her heart that she was pretending, she was afraid.
Although Wen Jinghua's parents are dead, her father Wen Zhengrong is quite powerful in the court, even if he is dead now, there are not a few officials who miss his kindness and care about Wen Jinghua.
Not to mention that Wen Jinghua's mother Chu Yunji was still friends with the queen before her death.
If this matter continues, it will be her Wen Jingxian's family who will suffer, not Wen Jinghua.
Thinking of this, Wen Jingxian stepped forward to support Wen Jinghua, "Sister, let's talk slowly, it's important to be careful..."
As she spoke, she gave Shen Fengjiao a look and signaled not to go too far.
Seeing this, Shen Fengjiao glanced at Wen Jinghua fiercely, and immediately stroked her palms and cried: "What did the eldest girl say, you are just ripping the flesh from your aunt's body to make medicine, and your aunt is also willing!
Wen Jinghua was still crying out of breath.
Shen Fengjiao wanted to calm things down, but Wen Jinghua was not as good as she wanted.
I saw her push away Wen Jingxian's hand that was holding her and insisted on kneeling on the ground.
If she really knelt down, then Wen Changzhi's trouble would be even greater, so panicked that Wen Jingxian hurriedly supported her, "Sister has something to say slowly, mother is the most distressed sister!"
I saw Wen Jinghua still crying in her mouth: "Please let my aunt let go of my two girls! Auntie, you know, those two girls have grown up with me since childhood, and their affection is extraordinary, and at this moment they are being punished by my aunt for my affairs, and I really have no face to live!"
Shen Fengjiao was so angry that her teeth itched, but she didn't dare not agree.
Because Wen Jinghua said it very clearly, if Shen Fengjiao insisted on sending those two girls, she would be forced to die.
Shen Fengjiao can't afford this crime.
So she had to soften her face and said: "What are you talking about, where did you hear that I am going to deal with those two girls? It's just a small punishment and a big commandment, since the eldest girl intercedes for them, where can the aunt continue to be a wicked person." ”
As he spoke, he turned back and ordered, "Go and release those two girls!"
Wen Jinghua still sobbed and hooked up, and it wasn't until Shiyu Shuhui came over that she slowly stopped crying.
Shen Fengjiao said a few more polite words to her, and hurried to send the guests off.
She felt liver pain when she looked at Wen Jinghua more.
When Wen Jinghua was weak and weak, Wen Jingxian spoke: "Even if Mother wants to punish her, there is really no need to rush at this time, so many people outside the gate are watching, how many onlookers are fools? ”
Shen Fengjiao defended: "I didn't expect her to have such a quick wit, she used to just hide her face and leave, but today she will play with me once she is normal." ”
Wen Jingxian sighed: "The rabbit is in a hurry and bites, in the future, my mother should be more restrained, don't really wait for the palace to reprimand, my father's face will not look good at that time." Zuo just gave her a mouthful of food, why did her mother deliberately suppress it everywhere. ”
Shen Fengjiao gritted her teeth and said: "I just can't get used to seeing her look high! begging for a living under my hands, but she is still the same as her lonely mother, Chu Yunji is the first talented woman in Beijing, and in the end, her daughter doesn't want to live by looking at my face? I just can't see her daughter doing well!"
Wen Jingxian frowned when she heard this, "Okay mother, be cautious in the future, don't be caught again." ”
Shen Fengjiao pursed her lips, "I see." ”
Wen Jingxian looked at Shen Fengjiao's appearance and knew that she didn't listen, her mother, who was too dramatic, could always make people see the clues. If you continue to rush to find fault like this, you may have to make trouble.
Wen Jingxian had no choice but to lower her voice and said, "Mother, the Hundred Flowers Banquet is coming soon." ”
As soon as she mentioned the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Shen Fengjiao's attention really shifted from Wen Jinghua's body, and she excitedly took Wen Jingxian's hand and said, "Yes, the Hundred Flowers Banquet is coming, my Xian'er is so outstanding, my mother must choose the most beautiful set of clothes for you." When the time comes, you will definitely be able to dominate the crowd at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and at that time, not only Chu Yunji herself will not be able to compare with me, but her daughter will also be compared to my Xian'er. ”
Wen Jingxian had a smile on her face, but she didn't care in her heart, because she never took Wen Jinghua's idiot in her eyes...
