Daughter of General

Chapter 48 Fear Strikes
Shen Yulan's appearance startled Jin He: "What's wrong? It was fine just now."

No wonder Jin He panicked so much.But Shen Yulan's current state is indeed a bit scary-the footsteps are sloppy, his face is pale, his expression is in a trance, and there is cold sweat on his forehead.

After all, Huoxiang is older and is a child of a poor family, and it is said that the child of a poor family is the head of the family early.Moreover, even though Huoxiang is smart, he still doesn't think as deeply and as far as Shen Yulan does, and he doesn't have the deep understanding like Shen Yulan, so he calmed down at this time, seeing Jin He explaining in such a hurry: " Maybe it was just out in the sun."

Jin He gave Huo Xiang a hard look, then reprimanded him bluntly: "Since you know the sun is hot, you don't know how to let your master go under the cool shade of a tree? Just let her bask in the sun like this?"

Huoxiang didn't dare to tell the difference, let alone explain, suppressed the grievance in her heart and smiled apologetically: "Yes, it's mine. Next time I won't dare, please forgive me this time, Miss Biao."

Jin He refused - in her opinion, Shen Yulan usually treats these servants too loosely.That's why these girls are made to be careless.Now, it's time to learn a lesson.

However, Shen Yulan opened his mouth at the right time, stopped Jin He, and forced a smile: "I didn't listen to persuasion. I just pretended to be nothing for a while. Who knew it would be like this. It's because my body is not strong enough, how can I blame it?" What about her? Sister He, can you make me some mung bean soup? I'm very thirsty."

Now that Shen Yulan had spoken, it was naturally difficult for Jin He to refute Shen Yulan's face.And looking at Shen Yulan's pitiful and uncomfortable look, Jin He's heart softened even more, and he couldn't bear to make a fuss any longer.In the end, he just gave Shen Yulan an angry look, and complained: "You, you are too tolerant of them." After saying this, he hurriedly went to make mung bean soup.

Shen Yulan glanced at Huoxiang apologetically: "You have been wronged."

Huoxiang's eyes were filled with mist, but she shook her head with a smile: "It is my blessing to be able to share the master's worries."

For Huoxiang, after being sold as a girl, how can she be respected and cherished by her master, how can she not feel happy and grateful?

Shen Yulan also smiled, feeling equally grateful - she is different from the real ancient people.She never took it for granted that one person's dedication to another person's loyalty.Therefore, she will be grateful and want to return.

"Go ask Mother Lin to come and talk." Shen Yulan ordered in a low voice.

Huoxiang was a little hesitant - taking advantage of Shen Yulan's opportunity to serve her alone at this time, she still opened her mouth: "Is it okay to tell Mama Lin about this? Will Mama Lin--"

"I know it in my heart." Shen Yulan smiled, regained her strength, took a sip of water, played with the quilt cover, and said meaningfully: "She has been with her for a while, and it just happens to use this thing Let's see what kind of attitude she has towards me." Look at Mother Lin, whether she regards Shen Junzhi as her master or her.

Huoxiang didn't understand, but she also knew that Shen Yulan really knew it, so she immediately went to call for someone.

When Jin He came back with mung bean soup, what he saw was Shen Yulan holding the lid of the cup and casually playing with it.Although he was careless, the expression on his face was so solemn that it was shocking.

Jin He was startled in her heart, she just felt that something happened that she didn't know.Immediately, his expression became solemn, and he sat down beside Shen Yulan, and asked seriously: "What happened?"

Shen Yulan raised her head to look at Jin He, and when she met Jin He's concerned eyes, she immediately smiled brightly, "It's nothing serious, but today I made my wife unhappy again. I'm worried. There's also the matter of studying medicine Son, I feel sorry for Chang Yu."

"If you are not pleasing to the eye, you can do anything to make her unhappy. What else do you have to worry about? As long as your uncle treats you well, it will be fine. Wait a few more years, and everything will be fine after you get married It's gone." Jin He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.She blinked her eyes playfully again: "I think that Chang Yu is also an uneasy and kind person. Okay, what kind of medicine do you want a little girl to learn?"

Shen Yulan was provoked by Jin He's funny look and laughed: "What nonsense? It's okay to let people hear this? Chang Yu also has good intentions. What you say like this seems to be evil. You know, I learned this stuff, but it’s mine. Did I take advantage of it or did he take advantage? Even if he was a little cautious, he still wanted to tell him about the method of reducing fever with shochu. It’s as unbearable as you said gone."

"That's not necessarily true." Jin He giggled for a while, looking weird.In the end, he refused to explain and only let Shen Yulan drink mung bean soup.Seeing that Shen Yulan had eased up a lot, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it's not serious."

"Well, it's just that I feel dizzy for a while. I'm sleepy, so I'll squint for a while. Sister He, don't worry. By the way, have you finished the purse you embroidered last time?" Shen Yulan smiled and comforted After a few words, he wanted to send Jin He away.She didn't want Jin He to know about Xiang Xiang.The more people who know about this matter, the more risks there will be.Not only because of the fear of leaking the news, but sometimes, the more you know, the worse it is.

If she could, she would rather keep Jin He in the dark and not involve Jin He in it.

Seeing that Shen Yulan's complexion was indeed still not looking good, Jin He smiled and said: "Okay, then you sleep for a while, and I will go to embroider. I will call you at noon."

Shen Yulan agreed, and allowed Jin He to pull her to the bedside and put her to sleep, then smiled as she watched Jin He go out the door.

Shen Yulan closed her eyes and took a deep breath.Immediately, I felt a faint fragrance at the end of the nose.Not too strong and smells good.It was for this reason that she didn't ask anyone to change the incense.Let the girl use this all the time.But who would have thought that what was originally thought to be a good thing to calm one's mind would become a life-threatening thing at this moment?
When did you start using this fragrance?Was it a month ago, or was this the beginning?Shen Yulan squinted her eyes and thought about it for a while, and finally remembered - it seems that this is what she used when she lived here.

It can be seen that Guo Shi didn't intend to keep her from the beginning.

Shen Yulan sighed, turned over irritably, and then stared at the exquisitely carved brass incense burner in the room, where the incense burning for life was exactly.

Shen Yulan looked at it for a while, and gradually a strong urge came to her heart - that is to throw this thing out.Kick it over.

But in the end Shen Yulan still resisted the strong impulse in her heart.Not for anything else, just for four words - to startle the snake.

Shen Yulan closed her eyes fiercely again, and then kept writing a word on the bed sheet with her fingertips—forbearance.endure.This is what she must do now, and the only thing she can do.

Only forbearance can make Guo Shi take it lightly. Only forbearance can better hide oneself in the dark. Only forbearance can seize the best opportunity to kill the enemy in one fell swoop!There is a knife on the prefix of the word forbearance. Patience is hard work and suffering, but it has to be endured.Because he couldn't bear it, the knife hanging above his head would immediately fall down!

Shen Yulan's mood gradually calmed down, and she lay quietly, waiting for Mother Lin to come over.

Sure enough, not long after, I heard Mama Lin calling softly: "Miss?" The voice was very soft, if Shen Yulan was not asleep, she would naturally hear it, and if she was really asleep, it would not disturb her.Mama Lin is always very appropriate when doing things.

Shen Yulan opened her eyes, turned over and sat up, then pointed to the edge of the bed, and said with a smile: "Mother Lin is here, sit down quickly." Then she looked at Huoxiang: "Huoxiang, you go and wait outside the door, I will rest. Come on, don't let anyone disturb my rest."

Huoxiang naturally understood what Shen Yulan meant, it was to prevent people from eavesdropping.Immediately backed out, and carefully closed the door.

Seeing this battle, Mother Lin naturally became clear-eyed; "Miss, what do you want to tell me?"

Shen Yulan nodded and smiled casually: "I can't make up my mind about something, and I want to ask my mother to look at it for me. What is the best thing."

Mother Lin smiled: "Miss, just talk." Shen Yulan asked when she didn't understand, which she had long been used to.And most of the time, she also gave it all.Only when there are some things that she can't say in her capacity, she will keep her mouth shut.

Shen Yulan just smiled and asked: "Let me tell you a story, Mama Lin. It is said that there was an official in the past, and he married two wives. But, the two wives have always been one in his hometown and the other in his hometown. So there have been no conflicts. But one day, this official, on a whim, took his wife and daughter from his hometown to his side. As a result, the wife met a robber on the way. She was hunted down all the way, and finally died. That My daughter was lucky and survived. She worked so hard to get to the officials. She thought she would be safe in the future. But she didn't expect that one day she found that there was a chronic poison in the things she had been using for a long time. So, she must die in the end. However, she doesn't know who put the poison, and there is no evidence. So, she hesitates, and doesn't know what to do? Should she tell her father, or should she secretly hide it? What's the matter? Mother Lin, tell me, what should she do? And who is the one who wants to poison her to death? "

Naturally, she couldn't directly refer to Guo by name, so she used this method.

However, I believe that Mother Lin understands who she is talking about.

After Lin's mother finished listening, her complexion suddenly became ugly.Subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the Xiangding.

"This kind of method is not common among high-ranking and powerful families, but it is not uncommon. As for who did it - the young miss heard a saying that when you are not sure who did it, just think about it. Once this matter is done, who will benefit in the end." "Mother Lin said these words with a sinking face.

Shen Yulan smiled, and lowered her head to play with a tassel hanging from the pillow: "I thought so too. After much deliberation, only that one person will benefit in the end. However, how to deal with this matter is the most important thing." Most importantly."

"Miss, how did you know there was something wrong with Xiang?" Mother Lin asked after hesitating for a moment.

Shen Yulan still smiled, but her gaze was stern: "The doctor told her."

"Is that doctor trustworthy? Could it be a misjudgment?" Mother Lin's attitude was still very cautious.

Shen Yulan shook his head, with an affirmative expression on his face: "He is not an impulsive person. If he is not [-]% sure, he will definitely not say it lightly." Chang Yu has come so many times, but he only said it this time, so it should be I am very sure.Chang Yu's stability made her willing to trust his judgment.

The most important thing is that Chang Yu doesn't have any other feud with her, so there's no need to lie to her by making up such a thing.scare her.On the contrary, Chang Yu's attitude towards her has always been very kind.

At this moment, Mother Lin was quite upset.She didn't expect that Shen Yulan called her to talk about such a big event.Moreover, it is a matter of life and death.Even though she has seen a lot of great things in the world and has a calm personality, she still can't help but panic.

Mother Lin looked at Shen Yulan, but she only saw a sense of tranquility in Shen Yulan's body, without any panic.Especially those eyes, as calm as water, faintly refracting a bright light.The current Shen Yulan actually has a soul-stirring charm.You know, in all fairness, Shen Yulan's appearance is not very good.It can only be regarded as a middle-aged figure.Compared with Shen Yushan, it was a bit worse.

But at this moment, Mother Lin had a feeling in her heart - that is, such Shen Yulan surpassed Shen Yushan by many times.Even though Shen Yushan's appearance was twice as exquisite and beautiful, it was still far behind.

Mother Lin suddenly thought of a sentence - the beauty of appearance is only the surface, like a flower in a vase, although it is beautiful, it has no spirit.And the most beautiful thing is the agility that emanates from the bones. This kind of beauty is like beautiful mountains and rivers, which cannot be changed in a thousand years.

Shen Yulan's beauty is this kind of non-appearance beauty.

Mother Lin calmed down and laughed at herself: "I'm panicked."

Shen Yulan also smiled: "What's the matter? Ordinary people will definitely be shocked when they hear such a thing. Besides--who can not panic when they are hurt by it? When I first heard it, I was so frightened." It's light. My legs are almost weak and I can't walk. It's better now."

Mother Lin didn't believe it—how could she be a little scared?

"I have two thoughts in my mind. One is to die, and the other is to hold back. Mama Lin, which one do you think is better?" Shen Yulan raised her eyebrows and asked.

After weighing things up in her mind, Mother Lin decided to choose the other way: "Hold it. Forgive me for saying something beyond the mark. If you tell the master about this matter, the master may not believe it, and it may not really be fair. Dealing with affairs. Although the Guo family is gradually declining, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The foundation of our Shen family is too shallow. The old people of the Guo family who are making small troubles will not show up. But it is really related to the reputation and future of the two families At that time, we will definitely not sit idly by."

"Moreover, it's not just the Guo family that's affected, but also our Shen family." Shen Yulan said in a deep voice, "After something like this happens, our Shen family will only be ridiculed. What's more, it will affect my family. Dad's future. Isn't it right? There is also that sentence, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. Daughter, I am not the only one."|
Mother Lin nodded; "That's right." Shen Yulan thought very thoroughly and deeply.But seeing Shen Yulan uttering such a bloody and shockingly realistic truth with a calm and indifferent face, one can't help but feel infinite pity.

It is impossible for Shen Yulan not to feel uncomfortable when trying to understand these things.But at this moment, no strange emotion could be seen on Shen Yulan's face.It seemed that she was just a spectator and had nothing to do with her.

The last time when Shen Junzhi sheltered Shen Yushan, he could still see the angry look on Shen Yulan's face.But this time it was surprisingly calm.

Such a change just makes people feel extremely heartbroken.It only makes people feel powerless, and it only makes people feel that reality is too cruel.

Mother Lin suddenly didn't dare to look at Shen Yulan's face, and hurriedly opened her eyes.Mothers are always soft-hearted.But at the same time, he is stronger and more ruthless than others.

So Mother Lin quickly said again: "It's just that we can't sit still and wait for death."
