Chapter 1: Tips
"Am I going to die?"
Nie Xiaofan lay on the bed weakly, asking himself over and over again.
The rain outside the window was pouring down, and it seemed to be playing a lament for her. She knew that she was dying, but she felt weak, and she couldn't even breathe. She looked fixedly at the dark red bag next to the pillow, and the maid Liu Yu came over and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Does the girl want the bag, the slave will put it in your hand!" Saying that, he carefully stuffed the bag into her hand, and she was no longer able to hold it!
It's been a hundred days since she fell!
The brocade bag is embroidered with a lifelike little tiger running, but it looks a little old, and even the brocade on the surface is a little old. The fragrance of osmanthus in the bag has long been dissipated! She moved her fingers, as if she wanted to pinch the bag in the slender jade hand tightly, but she couldn't exert any more strength!
But she didn't want to die!
Her mother died in order to save Mrs. Zhou, but in exchange for her opportunity to marry Zhou Jiulang. In a moment of sorrow and joy, her originally sick body couldn't bear it and fell ill on the couch. This disease is menacing, and there is no cure. She only relied on her love for Zhou Jiulang, and she breathed a sigh of relief and survived until now!
She wants to live, and when the filial piety period is over, she can wear a phoenix crown and marry into the Shengdu Zhou family in a beautiful manner. Marry Zhou Jiulang, who she longs for! That is the opportunity that her mother exchanged for her life!
Kuro!
She thought about him. Read him. Her thoughts drifted back to ten years ago, when she went out for the first and only time, and her mother took her to the Zhou Mansion to attend a wedding banquet. Under the osmanthus tree, he smiled happily and stuffed a bag made for him by his mother into her hand: "Sister Fan, when you grow up, will you be my bride?" She smiled shyly, but pretended to be angry and pushed her away, pinching the osmanthus scented bag and running away!
She hid the bag in her arms in a daze and went home with her mother, and her father asked her if the wedding banquet was fun, but she couldn't answer, she only remembered that sentence.
Except for her parents, no one has ever treated her so well.
Children of the same age think she is a medicine jar and refuse to play with her. Since then, her health has deteriorated, and she has never been out again. One doctor after another invited her into the Nie Mansion, and they all shook their heads and said that she was a weak disease brought about by the womb and could not be cured! The entire Nie Mansion felt that she would not survive! Her father even prepared for her when she was only 5 years old in tears, but she remembered that sentence.
She thought, if she died, would Brother Xuan be very sad? She wanted to hold on until the day when he would marry her!
She's going to be his bride!
Her little hand clutched the bag and fought with the disease for her fragile life. She sniffed the scent of osmanthus in her bag, as if it was more effective than any panacea, and the fragrance pulled her back from the ghost gate again and again! Even the doctor sighed that it was a miracle.
My grandmother was worried that someone in the family who had been ill for a long time would be unlucky, so my mother reluctantly sent her to Zhuangzi outside the city to recuperate. This has been eight years, she has never seen him again, she often holds the bag in her hand, carefully examines it, and tears silently, afraid that he will forget herself and have another love. One, two, two, three, so much thought, the body is not good!
But she thought, looked forward to, and waited day by day. But she waited for the news of her mother's death! She mourned in her heart and coughed up blood! She couldn't breathe for a while, and fainted!
When she woke up again and had returned to Nie's Mansion, she hated to replace her mother!
The maid Liu Xin told her that Mrs. Zhou, who was grateful for her mother's kindness, made the decision to give her to Zhou Jiulang, whom she liked! This sorrow and joy, but she could no longer hold on! The sick body that was originally five points became nine points overnight. One more point, but just one breath of air! Every day of sickness tortured her like plucking her heart and digging out half of her liver.
The sound of the door opening rang out, pulling her thoughts back. It was her maid Liu Xin who came in with medicine. She has been sick for a long time and likes to be quiet, and few people come to Zhuxiang Courtyard, and now only Liu Xin and Liu Yu are waiting for her.
"How's the girl?" Liu Xin asked.
Liu Yu wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "It's still like that, the girl is just afraid of it"
"What are you talking nonsense? I'm not afraid that the girl will hear it? The girl has been sick for so many years, hasn't she all come over?" Nie Xiaofan suddenly said: Yes, I have been really sick for many years, and I can't even embroider a purse for my beloved!
I'd love to embroider a trick for him too.
Liu Yu listened to Liu Xin's low reprimand, and quickly stopped her tears, as if persuading herself, and as if she was lying to herself to beat her spirit, and said with certainty: "Yes, the girl has survived, we should be more self-reliant, and we can't hold the girl back!
"Did you survive it?" Nie Xiaofan thought to himself. "This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to get by!" She wanted to laugh at herself, but she didn't even have the strength to hook the corners of her mouth. I wanted to cry, but the tears dried and I had to close my eyes slowly.
I want to sleep!
Liu Yu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, turned around and went to the small table to get honey to prepare.
Liu Xin put down the medicine and said to Liu Yu: "You help the girl up, and I will feed her the medicine." "The plain white porcelain bowl contains a bowl of black medicine, and it will be bitter to people's hearts just by looking at it!
Liu Yu called the girl softly. Nie Xiaofan opened his eyelids with difficulty, and looked at the plain gauze curtain with blank eyes. "Girl, take your medicine. Liu Xin called again.
Yes, it's time to take medicine, otherwise how can you get better?Nie Xiaofan thought.
Liu Yu sat on the pillow, carefully helped her up, and supported her with her body. I saw that she was weak and looked like she had no bones. With a slight movement, the bag in his hand slipped silently to the ground.
Nie Xiaofan glanced at Liu Xin with his eyelids strongly, and he couldn't make a sound, so he lowered his eyelids weakly after a while. Liu Yu was sad that the girl's body was much lighter, and Liu Xin was blowing the medicine carefully, and neither of them noticed the strangeness of the master and the tricks that fell.
Liu Xin took the medicine with a silver spoon and slowly handed it to Nie Xiaofan's mouth: "Girl, come." ”
Nie Xiaofan wanted to take medicine, but he couldn't open his mouth. This bluffed the two of them. In the past, she also had times when she was seriously ill, but she would never skip the medicine, as long as there was a trace of consciousness, she would not refuse the medicine that was more bitter than Coptis chinensis. Both of them have a bad heart. Liu Yu was anxious: "Girl, why don't you take a few mouthfuls of medicine!
"yes, how can you be better without taking medicine?" Nie Xiaofan's head slid outward, and his hair fell to his chest. The filial piety clothes on her body made her face more and more pale, without a trace of blood, but it added to her sick and weak state! She lowered her eyes weakly and quietly looked at the brocade lying on the ground.
I thought that I couldn't even hold a bag in my hand, and how nice it would be if it could fly into my hands! I also thought that I had been taking medicine since I was born in my mother's womb, and that my beloved had not seen each other for ten years, and now although I was married, I lost my mother. The body is so indisputable. At this time, like the bag, it fell to the ground and had no power to save itself. But I'm still so tired.
Liu Xin saw that Nie Xiaofan couldn't feed the medicine anymore, and was thinking nonsense again, Liu Xin knew her temper, and was afraid that she would think about it for a while. He hurriedly said: "Girl, don't think about this, if Madame is still there, she doesn't want to see the girl like this." The girl should be the same as before, be self-reliant, take medicine well, and Madame can feel at ease in heaven!"
"Exactly, the girl's family affair is Zhou Jiulang, who has set the prime minister's Zhou family's third room! The Zhou family, how many people can't envy it! The girl's blessing is still to come! The girl must not give up on herself!" Nie Xiaofan listened to Liu Yu's persuasion behind him, and only laughed in his heart: "Is it blessed? I'm afraid that I am the most unblessed person in the world."
If you abandon this indisputable body, won't you be so tired?
Abandon it, give it up, this thought echoed in her ears over and over again like a magic sound.
Seeing that Nie Xiaofan still didn't react, Liu Yu hurriedly asked Liu Yu to put her down and rushed to inform the old lady and the old man to invite the doctor.
Liu Xin tried to feed the medicine with a silver spoon again, but still couldn't open his mouth. Nie Xiaofan held on and didn't close his eyes, and looked at Liu Xin pleadingly. Liu Xin was by her side for a long time, and she was stunned for a while before she realized it. Hurriedly looked around, and found the bag that had fallen to the ground next to the bed, she bent down to pick it up, gently put it in the girl's hand, and carefully helped her bend her fingers to let her hold the bag in her hand. He gently tuck the corners of the quilt for her.
"It's enough to have a sachet in this life!" Come on, come on, Zhou Lang, see you in the next life"
Nie Xiaofan finally closed his eyes helplessly!
After all, I can't survive!
In a daze, I heard the voice of a snarky old woman: "What's the matter? Why can't you even take the medicine? Didn't you still use porridge yesterday? Pry her mouth open for me and pour me the medicine!"
The rain from heaven fell on the earth, but it brought her incense soul to heaven!
