Chapter 2 Freshmen
On the 24th of the first lunar month of the second year of Wendao, there was a heavy snowfall in Qingjing, like goose feathers, covering the sky and the earth. Huge white steamed buns were piled up under the alley walls, and they were kicked down by passing little children.

In Pingjingfang, the charcoal man pushed a cart filled with black charcoal for heating, and when he arrived at the back wall of the forest house, the smoke rose from the kitchen and smelled like meat, he swallowed when he heard it, and rubbed his cracked hands on the dirty jacket twice. .

"I know that those who eat your ancestors should choke you to death."

The charcoal husband was filled with resentment, he pushed the cart to the corner door, knocked on it, and a male servant who was cracking sunflower seeds came out and cast a sideways glance: "How long has it been, why did you come here? The masters should all freeze to death."

The charcoal husband quickly apologized: "Uncle, I'm sorry, my family got seriously ill last night, so I left late this morning."

"I'm too lazy to pursue it with you, so hurry up and push forward." The male servant said.

Then Tan Fu pushed through the corner door, facing the kitchen, and there was a bloody pig's head thrown at the door.

Qingjing's fishery industry is well developed, pigs are rare and the price is high, two taels of pork is more expensive than official embroidered fan noodles, it is extremely rare for ordinary people to buy a small piece of pork boiled into rotten foam and dipped in pancakes during New Years and festivals.

The Lin family slaughtered whole pigs.

As soon as the day came to light, the mothers-in-law and women in the courtyard were busy. The second sister-in-law Qiao, who was in charge of the stove, stretched out her stomach, pinched the heat, and sternly reprimanded: "This pot of meat weighs a full two catties, and it is a standard for Xiangsi Pavilion. They have all worked in this mansion for a long time, and they all know that the big girl's food is the most important thing to be neglected, that is a Bodhisattva with a smiling face, Yan Luoxin, and I will not be offended!"

She is the old aunt of Master Lin's personal entourage, Brother Chen. Although she is a bride, she has been in the kitchen for many years, and no one interrupted after being reprimanded, so she had to be more careful.

"Ouch!"

Hongying'er was slapped in the face by the newly delivered live carp tail, causing it to fall to the ground and roll to the ground. Seeing this, Second Sister-in-Law Qiao took a step across and slapped the half-grown girl's arm and twisted it.

"Little hoof! Why don't you throw the stolen things! A rotten face is worth a fortune, and you can't get this fish if you take it alive!" Seeing Hongying'er secretly staring, Second Wife Qiao scolded, "What? Are you Didn't sleep last night, eavesdropping on your mother and the wild man's door or something?"

These words were ugly, Hongying'er was sobbing softly, but suddenly burst into tears, she got up and was about to hit Second Aunt Qiao's stomach, people around hurriedly tried to stop her, causing a commotion.

"The dead girl turned against you! You bumped into it! Hit it and let your dead father come to reincarnate me as a kid! It's for your Li family to honor your ancestors!"

In the midst of chaos, a person flashed behind him, he didn't look like a servant of the back kitchen, he probably slipped in while the courtyard was messing around.

The second sister-in-law Qiao didn't react and told her to run away, and chased her to the entrance of the courtyard, looking at the back of Kuan Shuo who left in a hurry, it turned out to be the close girl of Lin Zhao, the second girl of Jianjia Pavilion, Chun Equinox.

The second sister-in-law Qiao immediately raised her voice and shouted: "Is it a crime to steal a pig's belly filled with hot water? It's just a punishment for shutting the door and thinking about it. You think it's us being servants who treat the second girl harshly! The one in Jianjia Pavilion is also a descendant, so I told you to give it to me." practiced!"

As soon as the rest of the people heard that the vernal equinox was coming, they filed out, wanting to watch the excitement, but who knew that today the vernal equinox didn't say a word, they just ran out holding the pig belly.

"Sure enough, the unmatched phoenix is ​​not as good as the chicken. The two girls have been punished, and the spring equinox is also honest."

"In the past, there was only Iron Hades, and there were times when he was so depressed. Feng Shui took turns."

Chun Equinox is eager to go up and mingle with them, but now he is too lazy to talk about those gossips.

She walked quickly to the outside of the ancestral hall, stretched out her hand to push and found that the lock was locked, and the mother-in-law responded lightly from inside: "The second girl is restraining her feet, the master ordered, no one is allowed to see."

Chun Equinox shouted: "I'm here to deliver something to the girl!"

Hearing her voice, the women inside were a little apprehensive, counting their heads together.

"How dare you stop her? That's a fool."

"Didn't you see that the master was so angry that day? He told Chen Ge'er to beat thirty hands, and locked the second girl here and asked us to guard it. How dare you open this door?"

"Then this..."

"Never mind."

There was no sound inside, but Chun Equinox got angry and knocked on the courtyard door fiercely.

'Boom! '

'Bang bang bang! '

'boom--'

Lin Zhao in the room raised his eyes suddenly.

She knelt on the futon, her whole body sore and torn.

She woke up half an hour ago, and when the two sticks of incense burned out, she realized that she was still alive.

But Lin Zhao didn't understand that she shouldn't be alive.

In front of him is a row of ancestral tablets, golden stoves, sandalwood, and white ash on the table.

——The position of the old son Lin Xin.

It's the eldest brother who died young.

Her eyes were full of anxiety and doubt.

Lin Zhao, whose name is Mingwei, is the grandson of General Yunhui Lin Zhian, married into Prince Rong's Mansion on the second day of July in the second year of Wen Dao, and was the wife of the eldest son Chen Wang. In that street.

Until the winter of the 16th year, Wenchang ordered Xue Daodai to issue the emperor's imperial edict, strangling Rong's heir Wang Chen Wang, and the Yi tribe. There were no eggs under the nest, and she could not survive.

The blunt wooden hairpin pierced his throat.

The pain attached to the memory was like a thin snake clinging to the five internal organs, Lin Zhao covered his mouth, calmed down and thought, at least...she should have died in Rongwang Mansion, not her natal ancestral hall.

"Open the door! You old bastards!"

People outside shouted.

spring equinox!

Lin Zhao looked back in disbelief.

She struggled to get up, walked straight forward, and pushed open the door, the wind and snow instantly cut her face like a knife.

The gate of the courtyard was bolted, and the courtyard was covered with white snow, and the walls were thickly piled up, leaving only the thick and towering old willow tree on the right side against the wall, bending over under the weight of snow.

A small wooden pavilion was set up in the corner, short and rough, with a charcoal pot burning inside, and a stove was set up to make tea, and several women who watched Lin Zhao sat inside to keep warm.

Seeing Lin Zhao standing at the door of the house, the women looked at each other, "This...why did the second girl come out?"

Hearing this, the spring hair outside the courtyard door raged fiercely, and slammed sideways, breaking the wooden bar.

Lin Zhao remembered this scene.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of that year, the Empress Dowager summoned her father into the palace through the Shangyuan Banquet, and when the latter came back, she made a marriage arrangement with Prince Rong's son. She refused, and the father and daughter quarreled fiercely. The father was so contradicted. , Immediately punished her hand, and ordered people to be locked up in the ancestral hall until she agreed to marry.

Lin Zhao had an iron temper, he would not make a sound when his palms were smashed, and passed out from hunger in the ancestral hall.

It was the second year of Wen Dao. It was difficult for Lin Bao to judge the person who came.

Is it possible to go back to the past?

On the spring equinox, she was wrapped in a thick reddish-brown short jacket, only the hem was embroidered with salvia, and she was stout and strong, with a small bun tied on her head with a red string. This small string was rubbed for her by Lin Zhao on the Dragon Boat Festival one year ago. Yes, the snow is cold, and the vernal equinox is so cold that the face is frozen, and even the dimples are red.

Lin Zhao's eye sockets were slightly sore.

This girl followed her to the Rong Palace for 14 years. When she died, she was as thin as a stick of firewood. She almost couldn't remember that she was such a chubby girl before the spring equinox.

Seeing that the courtyard door was knocked open, the women got up in surprise.

Chun Equinox didn't care about them, saw Lin Zhao standing on the steps, and said anxiously, "Girl!"

After all, I'm going to rush in.

Seeing this, several women came up to stop them, but the vernal equinox was so powerful that the four of them pushed each other.

"The master ordered no one to take care of it, what are you making a fuss about!"

"You old bastards dare to stop me! Don't be afraid to follow me to see the master!"

"If you make a fuss about going to Renhetang, you'll be walking around without food!"

"Second Miss is the master after all! You have eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard! How dare you make her sick like this!"

"Sick? I think she is very well! It doesn't look like she is sick! If you want me to say it, I'd better admit my mistake to the master! We will all be better when things are settled!"

The spring equinox pushed the woman's chest, pointed back and said, "Isn't sick? Which good man do you see standing barefoot in the snow in winter to suffer from the cold!"

The mother-in-law turned her head, and Lin Zhao stood there blankly, like a straight pole, thinking that the second girl was not like this on weekdays, at most she was withdrawn and never smiled, she really seemed stupid.

The spring equinox said again: "If the second girl really freezes here, she is a daughter of the first wife, who knows how much more noble than you lowly old bastards! At that time, we will see how the master and wife will beat you out!"

Having said that, the women are still a little hesitant.

"Think about it, the girl is different now, the master still has something important to entrust to our girl!"

The important thing refers to the matter of marriage.

These words really carry a lot of weight, the women didn't stop them any more, a man in a gray jacket took the lead to get out of the way, and said angrily: "It's fine to let you in, we are also concerned about the girl's noble body!"

The vernal equinox crossed the eyes, and ran straight to the gate of the courtyard, approaching the willow tree.

Lin looked at the vernal equinox.

On the 24th of the first month, it seems that something happened.

On the 24th of the first month of the second year of Wendao, the Chen Dynasty had the biggest snowfall since the founding of Liujiazi, which was big enough to be recorded in history.

I just vaguely remember one more thing.

The spring equinox is almost under the willow tree.

The fog in his mind dissipated, and Lin Zhao screamed suddenly.

"spring equinox--"

The spring equinox was startled, she stopped for a while, and before she could react, the big willow tree in front of her made a loud cracking noise, and the branches covered with thick snow slammed down, shocking her and fell into the snow.

The pork belly filled with hot water helped her cushion it.

Several people in the yard were frightened, and all the women took a few steps back. The vernal equinox is thick, and it's okay to fall, but if the second girl didn't stop her, the consequences would be disastrous.

After shouting that, Lin Zhao's strength was exhausted, his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground.

"girl!"

There were mixed voices, and someone came to drag her.

Lin Zhao remembered.

On the 24th of the first lunar month of the second year of Wendao, the spring equinox was hit by a willow tree, and she limped her left leg and left an ugly scar on her chin. She did not want to marry, and was willing to marry to Rongwang's mansion to guard her for 14 years.

But in this life, the vernal equinox will not suffer from such a catastrophe.

She won't either.
