Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 335
Yiqing and Leqing walked side by side on the veranda, Leqing was unhappy, Yiqing said: "It's all happened when I was a child, it's over, I just remembered it, maybe, I shouldn't say it, I didn't expect to throw their face for a while Happy, but it also makes you sad and uncomfortable!"

Le Qing raised her head, her eyes were red again: "I'm sad, and my sister loves me even more! I didn't remember it at that time, the past is over, but my sister remembers it in my heart, thinking about the suffering I have suffered from time to time, how sad is it? "

Yiqing comforted: "Okay, okay, don't be sad. The sage said that the setbacks and sufferings you have experienced are a fortune! My sister is not sad, nor is she so weak. She is at ease, and she will let go of all unpleasant things. It's in the past, and I live my own good life... I've forgotten about this matter long ago, I wouldn't have remembered it if they hadn't been tossing around and saying that out of their mouths!"

Le Qing said bitterly: "How many people in the world can be like our mother and daughter? After being abused by them in every possible way, they still have to perform filial piety, provide for them and treat them kindly. They enjoy a ready-made comfortable life. It’s getting worse and disgusting! You don’t owe them anything, why should you endure this? Our mother and daughter repay kindness with kindness, but they repay kindness with resentment. I’ve had enough, I won’t be a fool anymore!”

"Repaying grievances with kindness is a great kind person. We don't have that kind of cultivation yet, and Xia Jin's mother and daughter are not worthy of us doing that. If it weren't for the stupid and filial father and the weak and kind mother, we wouldn't have to suffer this!"

Yiqing couldn't help sighing, the two sisters were not happy, and they were not in a hurry to go back to the main courtyard. They walked hand in hand along the winding veranda to the back garden, and saw a few red clouds floating in the flying white snow from a distance. That scene is like a graceful and unique picture, rendering a kind of beauty that is free from vulgarity.

Le Qing was in a better mood, pointing there and said to Yi Qing: "Sister, the plum blossoms in the back garden are in full bloom these days. The red plum blossoms are covered with white snow, doesn't it look good? The smell is even better, let's go and have a look?"

Yiqing nodded, and said with a smile: "This reminds me again, there are also several wintersweet plants in the Hanjin courtyard of the Duke's Mansion, which will not bloom until the first month, and your brother-in-law planted them by himself, but not for viewing. "

"What is that for?"

"It's used to prepare pills for the old lady. The flowers have to be picked and baked as soon as they bloom, otherwise it will affect the efficacy of the medicine."

"Plum blossoms can also be used as medicine? It's really strange!"

The two sisters talked and laughed, put on their cloaks and fastened them tightly, got into the snow curtain, and walked towards the red clouds.

Turning around the rockery, she met a group of people head-on. Before Yiqing could see who the woman in the pink-blue embroidered brocade cloak was, she heard Leqing ask calmly:
"Unfortunately, you are not in good health. You haven't finished the medicine prescribed by the doctor before? Why did you come out to blow air again?"

Xia Xizhi lowered her eyes and did not answer, her face was as big as a palm, her cheeks were flushed by the wind, her facial features were delicate, and she was wearing a wide cloak that reached to the upper of her shoes. She is quite tall, only 13 years old, nearly 1.6 meters by visual inspection. Like Yiqing and Leqing, she has inherited Xia Xiuping's excellent genes.

Before Xi Zhi could reply, Le Qing lost her patience: "Don't want to talk? Then get out of the way, I don't have time to pretend to be dumb with you, I still have to go to see plum blossoms with my eldest sister!"

After hearing this, Xia Xizhi raised her head to take a quick look at Yiqing, and moved aside with the servants behind her.

Yiqing felt strange, this Xia Xizhi, why did she become like this?With a look of bitterness and hatred, who provoked her?
Just about to ask a few words, Yue Qing pulled her and said, "Sister, hurry up, turn around this rockery and enter Meilin!"

Going forward for about 20 meters, I saw clumps of bright plum branches blooming in front of my eyes. The elegant and beautiful plum blossoms and refreshing fragrance made the sisters linger and forget to return. They took a few maids in the plum forest After enjoying it for a long time, no one mentioned it back.

Mother Liu went back to the main courtyard to report first. Pang Ruxue was sad and worried after hearing what had happened. Hearing that the two sisters had gone to the back garden, she sent her mother-in-law to urge them to go back, for fear that they would be damaged by the cold wind. She urged them three times in a row. Yiqing had no choice but to pull her sister away. Before leaving, the two sisters chose a plum branch that looked particularly elegant and beautiful, and broke it off, and brought it back to Pang Ruxue to put it in a bottle for viewing. Looking at the plum branches in the jade bottle should also be quite happy.

On the way, when Yiqing asked about Xia Xizhi's situation, Leqing sighed helplessly and said:

"Xizhi was abandoned by the Huang family. She should have blamed her mother, but she hated our mothers instead! Fortunately, I obeyed my father's words at the beginning and stayed with her for a few days. It was pitiful to see her crying , but also worked hard to untie her, and gave her a lot of good things. Later, the old lady took her and lived with the two elders. Because he saw that Xizhi was willing to stay with his grandparents, he let her go. It's been bad all the time, either because Xi's brain is feverish, or because of a stomachache, and she said she needs to ask a doctor to take medicine, but she stops her parents from being by her side, and just asks to send money over there! The old lady has been sorry for more than half a year The money that Zhiyan doctor took away from the account for asking for medicine was several times more than what everyone in the house spent on medicine! These are not worth anything, and we can afford what should be spent, mother is just worried about pity After taking so much medicine, she was afraid that she might have some serious illness, so she wanted to ask the doctor from Qiancaotang to have a careful examination, but the old lady was annoyed, saying that our mother was not good-hearted, and she was looking for a wandering doctor who didn't know her, and wanted to take it out. Xizhi is hurting! She still tells the truth in front of her father, accuses Sang Huai and blames our mother for being unvirtuous on the grounds that Xizhi has no mother's love, and treats Xizhi poorly, saying that even a concubine is a member of the Xia family and cannot be abused! I don't know that old woman How did you instigate it? Xizhi was originally weak and crying, but now she has become stubborn, stubborn and indifferent. She dared to contradict her mother. How could I bear her? She also knew that she was afraid of me, so she simply shut up when she met me Pretend to be dumb! Sister, you said that she was taught to be bad by the old lady?"

Yiqing asked, "What does dad think about this?"

"Father, he goes to and from the yamen every day, and when he returns home, he spends most of his time in the hall or study in the front yard. There are always friends and colleagues visiting, otherwise he will go out to socialize, go to banquets and keep appointments. He is too busy! Mother told him As for the matter of Xizhi, father let the old lady dictate, saying that Xizhi is still young and not in good health, so let her follow the old lady!"

Yiqing raised her eyebrows: "Can a girl brought up by the old lady do well? Look at the two aunts and wives of the Xia family. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked! It's a pity that if it falls into the old lady's hands, the ending will be tragic." There! Now that daddy said so, what can we do? We are both daddy’s daughters, when we were abandoned by daddy, we were younger than Xizhi now, isn’t it miserable enough? We can all be self-reliant Get up, why can't she? Her current situation is many times better than ours at the beginning! There is a saying that mud can't support a wall, if she does it voluntarily, then let her go, there is no need to feel sorry for her!"

"I think so too. Xizhi is a concubine daughter. I don't want to fight for the top and go against my aunt and sister. It doesn't make sense for us to back her up instead! I'm worried that my mother's heart is soft, and my mother is always afraid of treating Xizhi badly. Food and clothing cost It is certain that I am the same as me. Xizhi likes my Youran Xiaozhu, but my mother actually said that I should build another Youran Xiaozhu! Fortunately, the old lady did not let Xizhi live alone, otherwise, just look at it, my mother might find my sister I want a pearl curtain like that with my brother-in-law! That’s why I always advise my mother not to meddle in other people’s affairs and treat Xizhi too well, so that Xizhi can take advantage of it, and if it hurts my mother and younger brother, it’s really not worth it!"

"You're right! There are so many dissidents living in the house, and we can't sever ties with them because of Dad, so we have to be careful, that's right!"

Walking back to the gate of the main courtyard, she saw Mother Liu coming out, and she said to the two sisters with some worry on her face, "The old man has already returned to the mansion, and he has been to the old lady's place, and he looks very angry. You have to talk nicely when you go in, huh?"

Yiqing and Leqing exchanged glances, nodded and said, "Understood, mom, don't worry."

The woman standing in front of the main room opened the warm curtain, and the two sisters walked in together, and saw Xia Xiuhe and Pang Ruxue sitting on the soft couch facing each other across a low table, Xia Yiming was not in the room, presumably The nanny took it to another house to play.Xia Xiuhe's complexion was really not very good, Pang Ruxue was talking in a low voice, when she saw her daughters coming into the room, she rushed to stay on the bed to greet her.

Yiqing stepped forward to support Pang Ruxue so that she would not be allowed to stay on the bed, and together with Leqing saluted to greet her parents, the maids came to help the sisters take off their cloaks, and handed the small copper stove that had been prepared earlier to them. , and then walked out one after another under the signal of Pang Ruxue.

Pang Ruxue pointed to the round table and said: "Sit down, there is freshly boiled ginger syrup on the table, drink a couple of sips to warm up your body, and set the meal after a break. Why did you sisters stay in the back garden for so long? It's windy and cold It’s snowing heavily, it’s not good to catch a cold!”

Yiqing smiled: "It's okay, I'm in a bad mood, go for a walk."

Pang Ruxue stopped talking, Xia Xiuhe coughed, looked at the two daughters and said, "Qing'er, Le'er! You are not young, and Qing'er is married and a mother, why are you still so willful? It’s already bad enough that I fell ill in bed. Many relatives and friends, even the wives of my colleagues, came to visit and comfort me when they found out. Make her feel sad and sad for the elderly? Has your father taught you that everything is prosperous in the family and that relatives should be more tolerant of each other. You are a person of status, and you are not afraid of making people laugh when you are angry with a few children? Grandma At such an old age, my energy is not good, and I just fell down and lost a lot of blood. How can I stop crying? I just saw her faint three or five times when I went there for my father! In case something happens, can you bear it? ? Then let people spread the story of you contradicting your grandmother and elders, what should I do?"

Yiqing smiled and said: "Just say that if the old lady dies unfortunately, as the eldest son, you have to carry the coffin back home. Ding You lost his good official position for three years. Father, is this what you are worried about?"
