On a warm spring day, the screen window reflects the bright shadows of the twiggling trees. A few girls in light green cloth shirts stood on the stove under the porch, boiling soup and medicine.

The slightly bitter smell spreads everywhere, making people inexplicably depressed and sad. The room was silent, Ai Lian was lying on her side facing inward, the broken hair on her sideburns was wet, and she couldn't tell whether it was tears or fine sweat.

She had lost two children, and it was true that the first child was undesirable to her, but the pain remained.

The child who had just left was what she was looking forward to, whether it was for status, admiration or something else, she needed it.

That long-awaited hope turned into nothingness in a stream of heat without warning. Her brain was rusty, blunt, and she didn't know what else to do but cry.

I don't feel hungry, I don't feel tired, I don't feel breathing, I just feel pain all over my body, everywhere.

There was a crackling kowtow outside, the curtain suddenly rose, and the sound of light footsteps was getting closer and closer.

She knew who was coming, but instead she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. The fourth master dispersed and came directly to the Nian's courtyard.

The smell of the decoction reminded him of the Li family, who had a miscarriage that day, and the yard was full of this smell all day long.

He felt a pain in his heart, if the Li family was still there, he was willing to exchange anything. He crept into the room, the veil hanging low, rippling in the spring breeze.

It seemed that the person in front of him was no longer Nian, but Li, his heart ached and hurt, he stood beside the couch with his back hand, and said in a hoarse voice after half a sound: "Asleep?" Ai Lian didn't want to speak, but her reason told her that she couldn't snub the fourth master.

She said: "The slave maid is not dressed up, so she can't see the fourth master." "Dirty and dirty, but also unscrupulous. The fourth master understood, he sat on the edge of the couch, looked at Ailian's emaciated shoulders, and said, "Don't be sad, the master has invited the head of the imperial hospital to recuperate for you, and you will definitely be able to give birth to a child for your master in the future." "As soon as I heard it

The word "child", Ailian's tears suddenly fell, and she choked softly: "Let the master bother the slave and maid, the slave and maid are really guilty." The fourth master remembered that day, Li lay in his arms and cried for a long time, couldn't help but be stunned, patted Ailian's shoulder again, and said, "Have a good rest, Ye Ming'er will come to see you again." Ai Lian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Congratulations to the master." After the fourth master left, Ai Lian barely stood up and shouted outward, "Bi'er." Bi'er entered in response, curtched her knees at the door, walked inside, and said, "What does the master command?" Ai Lian said: "You send someone to ask, where is the master." After a pause, he said, "Wait for me to dress and bring the medicine." She has long understood a truth, the more depressed she is, the more she must cheer up.

When she escaped from the fire in Wanyan's mansion, she was grief-stricken, and she survived. When Yan Rose and the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of China got married, she stood in the crowd and watched, her heart was like a knife, but she also held on.

Later, she was poisoned by Fourteen in the Imperial Hospital, and all thoughts were lost, and she also walked out of the Forbidden City alive. Now it's just a child, a child, what is it compared to the pain she suffered in the past?

The fourth master walked to Song Gege's house, and in the backyard, only Song Gege was the most gentle and obedient, and he didn't like to talk.

He sat on his back on a wicker chair and let Song Gege rub his shoulders and hammer his legs. Song Gege has a quiet temperament, and he is also quiet when he does things and walks, and the fourth master is with her, although he can't say how happy he is, but his mood can be unusually peaceful and quiet.

Song Gege is very good, but what he likes is Lee, even if Lee's is noisy. But Li is gone, no more, and every time he thinks about it, he feels irrepressible.

Whoever touched that nerve couldn't help but feel inexplicable anger, and anger was followed by endless and irreparable sadness.

Song Gege is nice and quiet here. The fourth master rarely slept well, and woke up when the sun fell into Ujin.

He opened his eyes and saw Song Gege sitting on the small table next to him, half-leaning on the tea table and napping. The afterglow of the setting sun poured in from the window, silent and silent, and occasionally a few girls passed by under the porch, all of them tiptoeing, for fear of making a noise.

The fourth master sat up cautiously, and wanted to leave quietly, but unexpectedly, the rattan chair creaked, Song Gege woke up from his dream, and when he saw that the fourth master was awake, he hurriedly said: "The slave and maid are out of order, please forgive me." She was sleepy-eyed and had a sense of innocence.

The fourth master smiled rarely, and didn't want to leave, so he asked, "The master is hungry, let people eat." Song Gege didn't think that the fourth master would eat in his own room, he was overjoyed, he was busy standing, he didn't want to be too impatient, his eyes were dark, and he was dizzy and went to the ground.

The fourth master stretched out his arms and said gently: "Slow down" Song Gege has been neglected for many years, and at this time he blushed and said, "Yes, Xie Ye cares." She lifted her skirt and went to the door to tell the girl, the side courtyard where she lived also lived in a few other Gege, sharing a kitchen, if she didn't pass the words earlier, the kitchen people were slack, and they might not be prepared for food and drink.

The girl hurriedly rushed away, the kitchen people heard that it was the fourth master to eat, a rush for a while, the cook in charge also sent someone to the courtyard to ask for a meal list and beef and mutton, greatly prepared two tables, until the meal, it was nearly eight o'clock in the evening.

Look at the posture of the fourth master, he is going to stay in Song Gege's house. Ai Lian vomited all over the ground at night, it stands to reason that there should not be this symptom, but it really happened, and the imperial doctor couldn't say anything, just because of the spring cold.

The fourth master came out of Song Gege's room with a lantern, and he didn't even wrap his cloak. He sat in front of the Ailian couch, comforted him for half a night, and then went back to the compound to sleep.

Early the next morning, the fourth master went to the court to discuss matters, and bumped into the eldest brother of the Li family who was a small secretary in the household department, the eldest brother of the Li family knew that the fourth master loved his sister, and he didn't know how many benefits he had gained from this, and now that the Li family was gone, he was afraid of losing the backer of the fourth master, so he always intentionally or unintentionally wooed him, or mentioned the good of the Li family in front of the fourth master.

Thinking of Li's face, the fourth master endured and endured him. The eldest brother of the Li family bowed his head, looked up and said with a smile: "Ten days later, my father's sixtieth birthday, I want to invite the prince to our house to drink, I don't know if the prince will have time?" "In the past, when Li's father congratulated him on his birthday, the fourth master would not stop Li's begging, and he would definitely be present to celebrate.

And the Li family has always been proud of the Li family, and in the name of congratulating his birthday, he showed off the lintel to relatives, friends and colleagues in the DPRK and China, and completely regarded the fourth master as his backstage.

The fourth master knew but didn't say anything, and let them mess around. But now, the Li family is gone, and the eldest brother of the Li family is still so ignorant of the severity, and the fourth master is angry.

What's more, it has only been half a year since the Li family died, and they celebrated so much, which made the fourth master even more angry. The fourth master scolded: "How long has it been since Mo'er died? Will you be able to celebrate your birthday? Are you her own big brother? Confused! Darn! The fourth master has always been kind and peaceful, and rarely makes noise in front of people, the eldest brother of the Li family was so frightened that his legs were weak, he spread it on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "The slave should die, the slave will tell his father about canceling the birthday banquet, and the slave" Before he finished speaking, the fourth master had already strode away.

Ai Lian lay on the couch for more than half a month, and the fourth master went to visit her every day, and the relationship between the two deepened day by day.

On the other hand, the days of the fourth master staying in Song Gege's house are gradually increasing, and Wu Gege, who is good friends with Song Gege, also gets some favor.

After Li's death, the fourth master was able to get wet with rain and dew. Fu Jin deliberately isolated Ailian, counting on using Song Gege to contain the Nian family, and when he had good things, he went to Song Gege's house to reward them.

Song Gege treats everyone in the backyard very well, and she is even more respectful to Fujin, but she is not a stupid person, she knows what Fujin means, so she also pushes the boat and stands on the same line with Fujin.

After all, the serious master of the backyard is only Fujin. Ai Lian was able to go out for a walk, and on the first day, she went to the Fujin courtyard to say goodbye.

It happened that Manfang Fujin, Geng Gege, Wu Gege, and Song Gege were all there, and they laughed so loudly that the whole courtyard could hear the laughter.

Fu Jin still has to put on a correct posture in front of everyone and pretend to be virtuous. She helped Ai Lian and said softly: "Your body is fine, you don't need to say goodbye, sit down quickly." Then he said to Mama Liu: "Go and get a new cushion to put on the pillow for Nian Fujin." Mama Liu answered, and after a while, she brought an ink-forged soft cushion and handed it to Nian's, and said with a smile: "It was newly made a year ago, and Nian's side Fujin can only use it with peace of mind." Since she was polite, Ai Lian also wanted to sing the whole play, and said with a smile: "What if Fu Jin used it, only to see the kindness" got up and blessed again, and said: "Xie Fu Jin is worried about the slave." Fu Jin smiled: "I said that I don't need to salute, hurry up and sit down." Everyone chattered tacitly for a while, and then dispersed at noon.

A group of people went out of the courtyard of Fujin, and they were about to separate at the gate of the courtyard, but they saw the fourth master walking quickly against the big sun, everyone stopped walking, and when the fourth master arrived, they all asked for peace.

The fourth master bowed slightly, no one looked at him, only stared at Ai Lian and said, "Are you in good health?" The sun is big, so don't get heated. Ai Lian was weak and boneless, and said softly: "Xie Ye cares, the slave and maid are all right." The fourth master nodded, held her wrist, checked the pulse, and said: "The imperial doctor has prescribed a prescription, but you still have to continue eating, don't be lazy and save it." Ailian, the fourth master, held hands, lowered his face and said, "Yes, the slave knows." The two of them were so close that the others felt uncomfortable, but Song Gege, the most favored of the few, had a slight smile on his face, as if he had nothing to do with him.

The fourth master let go of his hand and said to Ailian: "Master and Fujin say a few words, and I will go to you for dinner." Ai Lian couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "The slave will go back and prepare." The fourth master smiled, didn't look at others, and led Su Peisheng away.

Fu Jin didn't expect that the fourth master would come to his house at noon and go out to greet him. Seeing that the fourth master had a smile on his face, Su Peisheng gave himself a call

The gesture of "peace", the boulder suddenly fell in his heart, poured tea and water for the fourth master, and served him wholeheartedly. The fourth master sat down on the kang and said, "Huang Ama wants to go to our Zhuangzi to have a look, Ming'er, you go over to prepare for the cooking first, and three days later, I will go with Huang Ama together." After a pause, he said, "You are doing things properly, and you are very relieved." ”...
