The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 13 The Nightmare
The old lady was scheming after all, although she was frightened, she didn't show it on her face at all, she put a bracelet on Yuechan with a smile, then pulled down her sleeve to cover it, and said calmly: "This bracelet is worthy of you, then I gave it to you."

While talking, the old lady took out another hairpin carved with white jade and put it on Yue'e herself, and gave Yueting another hairpin of a different color.

Afterwards, a servant came over with food, and the little girl waited on Yuechan to wash her hands, and then helped them finish their meal.

After the old lady finished her meal, she sent Sister Yuechan out on the pretext of being tired.

When the man had left and was no longer visible, the old lady called Fei Cui, and said in a deep voice, "Find someone to go to the Missy's room and inquire about who is the dead servant who hurt the Missy by being careless and hurting the Missy? Yes, let me find out what Yuechan has been doing these days."

Fei Cui listened to the old lady's words solemnly, and quickly agreed, and immediately went out to find someone to find out the truth.

To say that the old lady still has a lot of control over the Meng Mansion, and she has a lot of eyeliner. After a while, Fei Cui entered the room, whispered a few words in front of the old lady, and stepped aside with a wink.

But the old lady was moved.

She never thought that Yuechan would have such great perseverance and wisdom, she would not hesitate to make such sacrifices in order to practice calligraphy, Yuechan is not a man.

The old lady sighed, it would be great if Yuechan and Haoyu were replaced. Although Haoyu is also smart, he is a bit naive after all, and he is also a bit pedantic and inflexible, so he might not be able to take on a big job.

On the other hand, Yuechan is different, calm, intelligent and decisive, this is the temperament that the head of the Meng family should have.

Once the old lady admired and thought about it, her heart turned to Yuechan.

She thought for a long time, analyzed the children of the Meng family, and finally felt that Yuechan was more promising, so she wanted to use the resources of the Meng family to Yuechan.

Yuechan didn't know that her deeds won the old lady's eyes and made the old lady partial to her.

In fact, the old lady was not confused in her previous life, she also saw Liu Mei's actions, but the old lady wanted to plan for the entire Meng family, she was really inconspicuous looking at Yuechan, knowing that she was a There is no great prospect for being unrefined, but the two sisters, Yue'e and Yueting, judge the situation together, so the old lady turned a blind eye and let Liu Mei frame Yuechan without doing anything.

In this life, the old lady saw that Yuechan was better than the sisters Yue'e, so she would naturally favor Yuechan.

Yuechan went back to her room and learned through Thrush that the people in the old lady's room were asking about her affairs, she didn't stop her, and sent someone to pass on the word that if the old lady asked about it, she would tell it in detail, and there was no need to hide it.

Yuechan never thought of hiding the old lady, the old lady is no better than Liu Mei, she is her own grandmother, although she didn't love her very much in the previous life, but it was because she didn't live up to her expectations and hurt the old lady's heart, that's why she ended up like this, Looking at it in this life, the old lady treats her quite affectionately, and Yuechan has made up her mind to hug the old lady's thigh, so naturally she will be more obedient.

Also, Yuechan also understands that the old lady married into the Meng family, from her grandson and daughter-in-law to her current status, she has experienced a lot during this time, and there must be many cronies in the family, like a big tree with intertwined roots, hard to guard against, she Whatever you want to know, no matter how much you try to keep it secret, she will find out about it. In that case, it's better to just open it up for her to see. Anyway, Yuechan has a clear mind and hasn't done anything shady. Things, the so-called don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, naturally you are not afraid.

After ordering Thrush, Huang Ying came to report that Huan'er was back. Yuechan let her in, and when she looked up, she saw that Huan'er had become fatter in the past few days, and her face was whiter and tenderer, and the previous scratches were gone. Yes, I couldn't help laughing.

Huan'er received Yuechan's grace to go home and be reunited with her parents. She was very happy in her heart. When she entered the house, she saluted Yuechan and said straightly: "Miss is kind enough to let me go home and reunite with my parents. Our family is grateful for Miss. We don’t have any good things in our family, but my grandma lives in the country and got some fresh melons and fruits, so I brought some for the young lady, and I hope the young lady will not abandon her simplicity.”

This girl, Yuechan was amused, she spoke more elegantly when she went back, she didn't know who she learned from.

Since it was Huan'er's wish, Yuechan couldn't be bothered, so she asked Huang Ying to bring in a few little girls to bring in the melon and fruit. The basket was full of big red peaches, plus a few small green sand fruits, probably not long after they were picked, the fruits were very fresh and translucent, and Yuechan was delighted to see them.

"It's hard for you!" Yuechan smiled and said a few words, and asked Huang Ying to grab a few copper coins from the box in front of the dressing table and hand them to Huan'er, and said with a smile: "It's not easy for farmers to pick some fruits. I can't get it for nothing, you take the money first, and you can send any good things in the future."

Huan'er originally wanted to decline, but seeing Yuechan's face, she smiled and accepted the money, thinking that her grandmother had planted a melon field, and when the watermelons were ripe, she would pick a few big watermelons and send them to the young lady to taste. Trying something new is not in vain for the young lady's protection.

Waiting for Huan'er to go down, Yuechan Fang sighed: "She is also loyal and grateful, her character is not bad."

Huang Ying was stunned for a while, then she thought, this ring is really good, she usually doesn't fight with others, this time the young lady protected her, and she didn't forget to repay the young lady when she went home, even though these melons and fruits were not worth much , what is rare is this kind of heart.

I also thought that there are many people in this house who have received the grace of the master, and only Huan'er's family wanted to take something out to thank them. The ordinary servants are not good-looking when they get cheap, and they never know how to be grateful.

After thinking about it, Huang Ying admired Yuechan's transparency in seeing people and dealing with things even more, so she made up her mind to learn more from Yuechan's side.

After writing for a while, Yuechan got tired, so she put the pen aside, washed her hands with clear water, and asked Huang Ying to take a green emerald fruit plate from the museum shelf, and washed some fresh peaches with her own hands. Pack it up, and send it to the old lady with the little girl.

I picked some more apricots and peaches, put them in small flower baskets and sent them to Liu Mei, Yue'e, Yue Ting and Aunt Liu.

The remaining few little Shaguo Yuechan were put into small white jade boxes and tied with ropes. They went to a small well in the yard, hung them with ropes, put the white jade boxes into the well water, and waited Let Haoyu and Meng Zhiwen use it after school or when they come back from the yamen.

With such a score, there are not many fruits left, so Yuechan simply rewarded the girls in the room.

Huang Ying looked at it, and said with a smile: "Miss got something to share with the old lady, master and aunt. This is serious. We are girls, so we don't have that face. Besides, miss doesn't eat much, so we should keep it for later in the evening." Eat some!"

Yuechan picked out a few overripe apricots and stuffed them into Huang Ying's hands: "Eat as soon as I let you eat, these things are all overripe, and they might go bad if left overnight. It’s easy to get upset if you eat it, so it’s better to reward you than to let it go for nothing.”

Hearing what Yuechan said, Huang Ying didn't refuse, she just said: "Let's save some for Sister Huamei!"

After a lot of tossing, Yuechan was also a little tired, so she simply let herself relax, took a book and leaned on the couch to read it, and she felt a little sleepy after reading it.

After a good night's sleep, it was getting dark, Yuechan tidied up her clothes and went to the old lady's room to say good night, and had dinner again, when it was dark when she came back, she entered the room and practiced calligraphy for a while, That's when I stopped.

That night, Yuechan didn't sleep very well, she couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, and she was always not sleepy after tossing and turning, so she simply put on her clothes, feeling that the room was stuffy, so she wanted to go out to enjoy a cool breeze.

She just woke up here, and the thrush sitting outside sat up, put on her shoes and came over to inquire, and when she heard that Yuechan was going out, she brought a glazed lantern, helped Yuechan put on a dress, and carried the lamp to illuminate Yuechan, master and servant Walking into the yard, she sat down under the rose trellis beside her, Yuechan felt a little sad when she saw that the moonlight was fine that night, and seeing the stars in the sky.

She thought of seeing guqin, flute and other musical instruments on the desk in her mother's room, and there seemed to be some books on music theory on the bookshelf, so she became interested and wanted to learn something.

Anyway, she couldn't sleep, she was idle too, Yuechan stood up, wanted to go to Su's room to find some interesting things, and learn by herself while her husband wasn't here.

Huamei tried to persuade her a few words, but seeing that she insisted on going, she didn't say anything else, and went with her with a lamp.

Yuechan's house was not far from Su's house, and she arrived in a short while. Yuechan was just about to ask Huamei to open the door, but she sensitively heard movement under a locust tree.

She was so startled that she wanted to say something, but she couldn't hear her anymore.

Pushing open the door and entering, Yuechan and Huamei were all petrified with the help of the glazed lamp.

It turned out that there were two men in black clothes standing outside Su's room, one holding a torch, the other carrying a big iron bucket, and they were about to enter the house.

"Come here!" Huamei yelled in a shrill voice, terrified.

When she called out, the Meng Mansion, which was originally peaceful in the middle of the night, suddenly boiled.

Originally, Su's room was not remote, it was not far from the main house, and it was also close to Meng Zhiwen's room, and there were many masters and servants around. When the thrush yelled, the voice in the middle of the night was extremely shrill in people's ears. People who are sleeping like dead pigs must be able to wake up.

Yuechan was terrified in her heart, but she was able to keep calm. She was thinking about what to do, should she further question the two men in black who didn't know why they came here, or take a step back and run out first, so as not to be caught? hurt?
Yuechan was thinking about it, but the two men in black moved first, one threw down the torch, the other lifted the iron bucket, and the two jumped over the wall and ran away neatly.

Huamei was a little dumbfounded, Yuechan was also a little confused about the situation, why did she just run away when she yelled?

Looking at the torches on the ground, the fire has already started. It is very close to the Su family's house. The Su family's house is made of wood. It is a season of dry weather. If you don't pay attention, the fire can be ignited house.

Yuechan was startled, ran over and picked up the torch without thinking.
