Chapter 115 Dark Tide

Xiao Taiji looked at a stack of pale yellow moso bamboo pairing cards bounded with green velvet cloth, and felt very reluctant to part with it.The pair of cards is painted with varnish, and the letter "Xiao" is written on it. It has not been a few years since I arrived at Xiao's house.The body of the card is still shiny and clear, and it seems that it still has the fragrance of bamboo leaves, but it does not have the thick majesty after being rubbed by human hands for decades.

Chen Yuejiao's eyes also fell on the stack of cards, and her eyes darkened.She was not familiar with this pair of cards.

Whether it's Du Heng or Chen Yuejiao, what they are familiar with is the Torreya wood match between Xiao Shi and Feng Hou.Xiao Shi and the official title Zhu Guohou, the Xiao family jumped into the aristocratic family of Daqi, and soon moved out of this Yongningfang, and lived in Chongkangfang where honored nobles gathered.

Daqi confers titles, only military generals with military merits.Military generals are appointed as marquises, and they all have mansions bestowed by the imperial court.Xiao Shi and the title of the previous life are hereditary to the fifth generation.The Marquis Mansion of the Xiao Family was an imperial gift, and it was supposed to be taken back after the fifth generation, but King Yi asked for grace for Xiao Shiji, and granted the Marquis Mansion to the Xiao Family forever. Later, the title and the house were inherited by Chen Yuejiao's only son .

In the Marquis's mansion, the pair of cards they used was carved out of fine torreya wood, with both ends wrapped in fine ocher velvet.

Compared with the pair of bamboo tiles bordered by green velvet cloth, the pair of tiles bordered by ocher velvet really can't stand on the table.

Chen Yuejiao curled her lips in disdain, thinking of an idea.

She naturally knew the importance of feeding, but Guan Yunlian had just had a miscarriage and needed to be raised for a while.

However, Guan Yunlian's confinement is too early, it seems that her upper body is gone, from Zhu Susu's tone, there is no need to make a big fuss about confinement.It's enough to stay in bed for seven or eight days.

And since it wasn't very serious, it would be more appropriate for her to act as a director on the bed and assist herself from the side.

Chen Yuejiao gave Xiao Taiji some advice, "Cousin-in-law, don't be in a hurry. I heard from Zhu Lang that my cousin is not considered a real miscarriage this time, and she doesn't need to have a confinement, as long as she takes care of her for seven or eight days. The family's It’s just a few things. It took seven or eight days. I covered it up for my cousin, and it passed. Anyway, don’t leave the big folds, as long as you don’t make mistakes with the young mistress and the old lady.”

Xiao Taiji showed joy, and hurriedly made a bow to Chen Yuejiao, and thanked: "Then thank you cousin. When your cousin recovers from illness, she will naturally thank you." After speaking, he was worried: "If sister-in-law Yi Yunlian is ill What should I do if I want to take away the pair of cards on the grounds that I need to rest?"

Chen Yuejiao shook her head, "No. The eldest young mistress is not this kind of person. Besides, she feels guilty because of her cousin's miscarriage this time. Even if she wants to get the right card back, she won't act too hastily. We just need to fight against it for a few days. Go there. When my cousin can get up and walk, it will be fine."

Xiao Taiji suddenly realized.Smiling and touching the back of his head, "Cousin is not very old, but she can read people's hearts, which is much better than your cousin."

Chen Yuejiao smiled shallowly, although she was depressed in her heart, she also knew not to act rashly, and she was blessed with Xiao Tai.Turn around and leave the main room, go to the back room to guard Guan Yunlian.

Guan's miscarriage.Xiao Taiji can't live in her room, and has already moved to Chunyun House in Tongfang.

Xiao Taiji didn't follow in, and said behind Chen Yuejiao, "Say hello to your grandma for me, I'll see her again tomorrow."

Chen Yuejiao responded, walked around the fan, and came to Guan Yunlian's bed.

Guan Yunlian's face was pale, she had just taken the medicine and fell asleep in bed.

Seeing Chen Yuejiao coming in, the two maidservants who were guarding by the bed hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"You guys go down, I'll just take care of my cousin." Chen Yuejiao said sullenly, sitting beside Guan Yunlian's bed, and began to do her sewing.

Guan Yunlian called "Second Master" twice in her dream, then woke up, staring blankly at the picture of Baizi on the top of the bed curtain.

"Cousin, are you awake?" Chen Yuejiao hastily put down her needle and thread, helped Guan Yunlian to get up and half-sit on the bed, and put a big red baby playing pillow behind her.

Guan Yunlian felt thirsty, and asked Chen Yuejiao to serve her a drink of water, then leaned out of the bed to look around.

"Where is the second master? Did the second master come to see me today?"

Chen Yuejiao smiled and said: "Here we come. Seeing that my cousin was still asleep, I went back to Chunyun's room."

Xiao Taiji opened the personnel department at the age of 12, and now has three houses, Chunyun, Chunfang, and Chunlan.Chunyun is the eldest, and also Xiao Taiji's first woman. She is three years older than Xiao Taiji, and she is seventeen this year.Chunfang and Chunlan were originally rewarded by the old lady to the uncle Xiao Shiji, but they were rejected by the uncle, so they were taken back by the second master, changed their names, and were of the same generation as Chunyun.

Xiao Taiji gets along best with Chunyun on weekdays, and he said earlier that when Mrs. Guan becomes pregnant, he will promote Chunyun to be his aunt.

Of course Guan Shi was not happy, but he didn't show it in front of Xiao Taiji either.

Guan suddenly remembered this, took Chen Yuejiao's hand and said in a low voice: "Cousin, shouldn't those bastards be proud? Did Second Master tell you anything?"

Chen Yuejiao comforted her patiently, "It's just a few maids, not even an aunt. What's the hurry, cousin? When the second master's heart calms down, cousin can deal with them as she wants. Take good care of yourself now, take care of your body It is serious to give birth to a big fat boy." After finishing speaking, he said earnestly: "Cousin, everything is imaginary, only the son is real. Cousin, look at the old lady, although the master is gone, but there are two sons , now it’s not like the old Fengjun, living a comfortable life.”

Guan Shi stared at Chen Yuejiao, and suddenly found that Chen Yuejiao's life became better and better unconsciously.The facial features are exquisitely beautiful, and a pair of black eyes are clever and moving. Between glances, she is somewhat similar to the young grandmother Du Hengshuang.

Guan blinked his eyes, and when he took a closer look, the similar expression disappeared without a trace.

"The old lady is right, you are indeed a bit like the character of the young lady." Guan stared at Chen Yuejiao's pretty face, and quietly said a word, "The uncle is much better than the second master, and he is an official. , there is no other woman in the room except the eldest mistress. Besides, the eldest mistress has a lot of money, and the elder mistress is kind and generous, and she doesn't seem to be intolerant. You are so capable, smart, and likable, so you know that our second mistress is just Putting on airs, the big house is the lucky one..." Insinuating that Chen Yuejiao should not hit Xiao Taiji's idea, that Xiao Shiji should be her target...

The expression on Chen Yuejiao's face changed.Then she returned to normal, took the body-replenishing soup that the maid had just brought, blew on it, scooped a spoonful with a white porcelain spoon, brought it to Guan's mouth, fed her to drink, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Good luck, how can I catch up? Cousin don't say such things in the future, be careful to let the young mistress hear, and don't wait to see cousin."

This reminded Guan Shi.

She raised her right hand.Caressing the left side of his face that Zhihua had slapped, he gritted his teeth and said, "Little bitch, don't make it into my hands in the future!"

Chen Yuejiao smiled slightly, and fed Guan another spoonful of soup.

Guan began to feel drowsy after drinking the body-reinforcing soup.

Chen Yuejiao tucked in the quilt for her, waiting for her to fall asleep.Only then did I put down the curtain, took the needle and thread by myself, and sat on the big nanmu kang under the south window to do needlework.

In the yard where Xiao Taiji and Guan Shi lived, there were no earth dragons and fire walls.In winter, I rely on the big kang under the south window, as well as the stove and brazier to keep warm.

In the evening, when Guan Shi got up again, he had dinner.After Chen Yuejiao wiped her body, she was exhausted.Go back to the west wing room where I live with Aunt Jin.

Aunt Kim had already had supper and was sitting by the lamp, sewing.

Seeing her coming in, Aunt Jin raised her head and asked, "Is your cousin better?"

"It's much better, and we can be directors in two days." After speaking, he asked, "Mother, how much money do we have left?"

Aunt Jin shook her head and said: "You took it away last time. Now I only have the monthly money from your cousin here, two taels a month. I honored the mother in charge of the old lady's room by one tael. Now I only have three taels." two."

"I only have four taels of silver." Chen Yuejiao took out her purse and poured out a few scattered silver coins.Feeling very uncomfortable, thinking of the exquisite luxury I saw in the courtyard of the new house, I felt a strong disgust and contempt for Du Hengshuang who lived there.

It was originally her body, her life, her man, and her dowry, but they were all taken away by that shameless ancient woman Du Hengshuang.

The situation she has fallen into now is due to Du Hengshuang.

However, it is a blessing in disguise.What she lost, she will get back in the same way, and she will get more than in the previous life.

Chen Yuejiao sat across from Aunt Jin, resting her chin with her right hand, sitting under the lamp thinking about something, and laughed to herself for a long time, "Hmph, she really belongs to the dove occupying the nest. I see how long you can be happy." , it’s not all for others to make wedding clothes. It’s mine, and I will definitely take it back.”

Aunt Jin sounded strange, and waved her hand in front of Chen Yuejiao, "Jiaoer, what's wrong with you? But you're in trouble?"

Chen Yuejiao's eyes were fixed, she came back to her senses, looked at Aunt Jin with a concealed smile and said, "It's okay, mother, do you have something to say?"

Although they didn't have a maid to serve, Aunt Jin still habitually looked around, then whispered in Chen Yuejiao's ear, "I'm telling you something, don't tell others."

"What's the matter?" Chen Yuejiao asked listlessly.

"I heard from the maid in the old lady's room that the uncle went out last night and didn't come back all night. He said that the young lady cried all night and her eyes were swollen, so she had to wear a mask today." Aunt Jin was mysterious. typical.

"Oh?" Hearing that Du Hengshuang's life is not going well, Chen Yuejiao felt her whole body come alive, so she hurried over and asked, "What else?"

Aunt Jin was suffocated, and refused to say any more. She picked up her needle and thread and continued to work, "What else? There are other things that your children can't listen to." She actually refused to say any more.

Chen Yuejiao rolled her eyes, sat next to Aunt Jin, tugged at her sleeves and acted like a spoiled child, "Mother, tell me. I'm old too, and I want to get married in the future. If you don't tell me carefully, mother, I will marry someone to eat!" Fortunately, there is nowhere to cry."

Aunt Jin felt that this was true. There were only the two of them in the room, and Chen Yuejiao wanted to know about those things anyway, so she lowered her voice even more: "I heard from the woman in the laundry room that the quilts in the room of the eldest and youngest mistress are the same. It's been clean for a few days, except for the night in the bridal chamber, the uncle hasn't touched the young lady at all!"

"Ah?!" Chen Yuejiao beamed with joy.This is really good news!

How good Xiao Shiji is in bed, Du Heng in his previous life is much clearer than Chen Yuejiao in his previous life.Chen Yuejiao's memory seemed to be buried so deep that she couldn't perceive it.She only remembered that when she was still Du Heng, with Du Hengshuang's body on her back, she was able to linger with Xiao Shiji until death.Every time he comes up, she can't wait to melt her body.Serve Xiao Shi and enjoy it very much.

Even though Xiao Shiji later changed his mind and refused to touch her again, and hung out with those goblins all the time, but she will never forget his money until she dies.

Du Hengshuang can't please Xiao Shiji in bed, Xiao Shiji will only change his heart sooner.

When the time comes, isn't it his own opportunity?

In this life, doesn't she have to wait so long?

Chen Yue Jiaoxiang's cheeks turned red, and her whole body went limp.As soon as the body became hot, a stream of heat actually gushed out from the delicate flower, and dripped onto the bottom pants, which were wet and sticky.

It was a long-lost familiar feeling.

Chen Yuejiao was at a loss for a while.Her menstruation finally came, starting from today.She can discuss marriage.

Aunt Jin heard Chen Yuejiao whisper that she was not feeling well, so she hurriedly asked her to take off her skirt and show her her panties.

Sure enough, there was a mass of blood stains on the underwear, the menarche of a virgin, like a rose blooming in the dark night, the red is dazzling.

……

During the seven or eight days when Mrs. Guan was ill, some things happened in the Xiao family.

Long Xiangye moved to live in Xuanrong Hall in the back garden.After Xiao Shiji ordered someone to remodel the bathroom in the main courtyard, he also moved in with Du Hengshuang.

Du Hengshuang didn't send anyone to pick up the pair.He just sent a maid over there to check on her condition.

Seeing that Mrs. Guan was taking care of the housework properly on the hospital bed, Du Hengshuang didn't say much, and devoted most of her energy to Xiao's shop and farm, busy cleaning up the books, meeting the shopkeeper and stewards.

At the same time, twice a day in the morning and evening.Rain or shine, go to Xuanrong Hall in the back garden to pay respects to Long Xiangye.

Long Xiangye lived in Xuanrong Hall for a while, and felt more comfortable than the main courtyard.Don't worry about it for the time being.It's just that when she saw Du Hengshuang, she was still embarrassing. When she thought of the marriage certificate in Du Hengshuang's hand, she felt guilty and could no longer put on airs like a mother-in-law.

Du Hengshuang saw that Long Xiangye either ate or slept every day, and went to pay her respects by herself. Eight times out of ten times, she did not see her. When she saw her once in a while, she found that she was much older and also a little uneasy.

Xiao Shiji told Du Hengshuang not to think too much, and comforted her to wait for a while.When I am still ashamed now, there will definitely be some twitches.

Du Hengshuang had no choice but to be more respectful to Long Xiangye.

Long Xiangye observed secretly for a while, seeing that Du Hengshuang didn't become frivolous just because he took advantage of her, and that Xiao Ruisheng didn't come to her house with a shy face to disgust her, so he let go of his heart for the time being.

Her mood improved, she was able to talk and laugh, and her attitude towards Du Hengshuang changed drastically, even better than towards her second daughter-in-law, Guan Yunlian. Even her own daughter, Xiao Yanran, had to back off.

Du Hengshuang knew that it was because he held Long Xiangye's handle, and the other party knew the current affairs, that his relationship with her improved, so he didn't think much about it.

But in the eyes of outsiders, his eyes were red with jealousy.

The Second Young Mistress Guan's family background is not as good as Du Hengshuang's. She originally gained a foothold in Xiao's family thanks to the love of her mother-in-law, Long Xiangye. Thailand and Japan are a little dissatisfied.

Long Xiangye secretly laughed when she saw it, and thought it was better this way.Just be a person standing on the dry shore and hold Du Hengshuang high. Naturally, someone will try to make her fall off, so I just need to watch the fun from the sidelines.If Du Hengshuang suffers, it has nothing to do with him, and the eldest son will not blame him.As for the second room, I just need to compensate them secretly.

Chen Yuejiao was also very impatient.Seeing that Long Xiangye has been subdued by Du Hengshuang, what chance does she have?

There was no other way, Chen Yuejiao finally let go of her resentment, and started to go to Du Hengshuang's main courtyard every day to say hello, seeing Tian hovering in her courtyard, even if she helped her with rough work and sweeping the yard, she won the attention of some women in charge of the main courtyard. The favor of the maid.

After hearing Zhu Susu's reminder, Du Hengshuang specially sent someone to stare at Chen Yuejiao for a period of time, but found nothing wrong at all.

Chongyang Festival is coming soon, Xiao Shiji promised to take Du Hengshuang back to Luoyang to visit her father Du Xiancheng's grave.

Du Hengshuang planned to go back to her natal family first, and wanted to ask her younger sister Du Hengxue if she wanted to go with her, but when she just left the house, she was stopped by Qian Bo, the old family member of Du's family.His face was flushed with excitement, and he said to Du Hengshuang, "Miss, there is someone who wants to see you."
