Glory all the way

Chapter 2
"Miss, ma'am..."

An urgent call came from her ear, and Bai Yingluo opened her eyes, but she didn't know where she was.

The melon-faced servant girl in a pink jacket lifted the bed curtain and hung it up, half-supporting Bai Yingluo to sit up, and stuffed two soft pillows behind her.

"Miss is having a nightmare again?"

After seeing who was coming, Bai Yingluo took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "Liusu, I'm fine..."

Turning around, walked to the round table, picked up the teapot and poured a bowl of tea, Tassel brought it over and handed it to her and said: "Miss hasn't had a nightmare for a long time, and this servant thought that Miss's body is already healed, unexpectedly, it will be the same again tomorrow, tomorrow The servant girl went to beg Mother Zhao to let her find a doctor to show the lady."

After drinking a few sips of water, Bai Yingluo calmed down her rapid heartbeat, shook her head at Liusu and said, "I'm fine, don't go to see Mother Zhao, if the old lady finds out later, you have to worry about me, it's okay, huh? Maybe it's because the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the bed is getting stuffy, so it's okay..."

Softly coaxing Liusu to rest, Bai Yingluo lay back on the bed, but couldn't fall back asleep.

Tassel took the candlestick away, and the back room immediately returned to the darkness just now. Bai Yingluo raised her hand and put it on her chest, feeling the rapid beating of her heart, she couldn't help exhaling a few long breaths.

Time is like running water, now, it is the 16th year of Jiayuan, and I have lived for twelve years.

I used to follow my parents to kowtow to the Bodhisattva in the temple. At that time, I was playful when I was young. When I looked at the soft-faced Guanyin Bodhisattva, I would just stare at it intently until my mother dotingly grabbed her hand and whispered softly. He said in a voice: "Luo'er, the Bodhisattva understands people's hearts, and good people will be rewarded. Come and kowtow to the Bodhisattva. In the future, Luo'er will be a good person, and the Bodhisattva will protect Luo'er."

At that time, I never knew what is meant by "the cause of the previous life, the result of the present life", so I just obeyed my mother's words ignorantly, and then kowtowed three times to the Bodhisattva in a polite manner with my mother's gratifying smile.

Whether it is Luo Niang from the Bai family in the mountain village in the outer suburbs of the capital city in the previous life, or Bai Yingluo, the sixth young lady of the Jing'an Hou Mansion in the current life, she has no worries about food and clothing in the two lives. Is this really the holy eye of a Bodhisattva?
The small courtyard that was stained red with blood, I don’t know if it’s still there, what happened in the courtyard is as clear as it happened yesterday, but the current self is the young lady of the Jing’an Hou Mansion. Bai Yingluo felt that this was the biggest joke God had ever played on her.

In the dead of night, Bai Yingluo would always think of the past that made her unable to sleep peacefully. Every time she thought about it, her heart felt like sharp claws were tearing her heart and lungs, an indescribable pain.

The year when the family died tragically was exactly the 20th year of Jiayuan. Now, she has changed her body, but she doesn't know whether those relatives who make her worry about her are still in the same place, whether they are still the same people, and they Will there be a delicate girl named Bai Jia Luoniang by her side?

Questions came one after another in her heart, and if she thought about it further, she would fall into endless gloom like before. Bai Yingluo withdrew her thoughts, forced herself to calm down, and fell into an uneasy sleep.

Opening her eyes again, the sky was already bright. In the outer room, there were footsteps of servant girls coming in and out. Bai Yingluo raised her voice and called out: "Tassel..."

"Miss, are you awake? It's only two o'clock, please lie down for a while."

He took out a soft pillow from the back of the bed and stuffed it behind Bai Yingluo, Liu Su went out and ordered the little maids to prepare warm water, Fang came back and stood by the bed and whispered: "Mother Zhao came and said that the young lady is not well. There is no need to go over to say hello today, as the old lady told me, Miss, do you still want to go over?"

"Go, of course..."

Said in a deep voice, Bai Yingluo lifted the brocade quilt on her body, and was dressed by Tassel.

At the hour of Chen, Jing'an Hou Mansion entered the main room of Qing'an Hall on the third day, and Bai Yingluo prostrated herself, "Yingluo pays respects to grandma."

On the soft couch at the top, sat a benevolent old lady, who was the old lady of Jing'an Hou Mansion, Mrs. Bai.

The old lady Bai was over fifty years old, wearing a dark red beige with blessing patterns, and only a few simple hairpins on her head. With a soft smile on her face, she looked a few years younger than her real age.

"You child, I told you not to let you come, but you refused to be obedient..."

Seeing Bai Yingluo like this, the old lady Bai said kindly, while pointing to Tassel with her eyes to help her up, and sat down in the armchair at the bottom.

After a while, footsteps came and went in the courtyard.

"Old lady, the three ladies are here with the ladies."

The curtain of the house was lifted, and the maid outside the door spoke in a charming voice.

Three middle-aged women came in one file at a time, and behind them were several girls. Looking at their ages, the older ones were only thirteen or fourteen years old, while the younger ones were only five or six years old.

The leading woman is the eldest master of the Hou Mansion, the wife of Bai Shizhong, the son of the Hou of Jing'an.The next two are the second lady and the fourth lady.

Waiting for them to greet Mrs. Bai and sit down, Bai Yingluo, who had already stood up and waited beside her, greeted each other and said, "Yingluo has met the eldest aunt, the second aunt, and the fourth aunt."

There was a look of pity in her eyes, and Shizi's wife Xue said softly: "Good boy, get up quickly, but you are the most filial, and you are the first to come because of your poor health."

Standing up, she retreated to the old lady Bai and stood still. Bai Yingluo lowered her head and replied, "Yingluo has been loved by her grandmother since she was a child, so she should serve her side well and dare not be sloppy."

Hearing this, the second lady turned her head and glanced at the daughter standing beside her. Seeing her pouted, she hurriedly gave her a wink to tell her to be calm.

Old lady Bai has four sons and two daughters. Bai Yingluo's father is old lady Bai's third son, Bai Shiming.

Although Bai Shiming was not the youngest son, he was extremely intelligent since he was a child, and he was awarded a Jinshi at the age of 20.

He is modest and polite to the outside world, and easy-going and tolerant at home, especially to the old lady Bai, who is extremely filial. Therefore, among the four sons and two daughters, the third son that the old lady loves the most is the old lady Bai.

I don't know if he answered the phrase "Heaven is jealous of talents", it was the age of Chunfeng Ruyi, Bai Shiming took the errand of the court, and took his newly married wife to the place to take up the post with high spirits, and took away with him, as well as the Marquis of Jing'an Everyone in the government misses him.

Flooded in July, the new official took office in Baizhi County, which has three fires, and personally went to the embankment to inspect the flood. .

That year, in the Jing'an Hou's mansion, the old lady Bai was almost blinded by crying. The old Bai Houye and the Shizi sent people to pick up the third wife who had only been married for five months. , the third lady wore white silk and hung herself on the beam. When she woke up the next day, she knew that she already had Bai Shiming's flesh and blood in her stomach.

Conceived in October, the third wife gave birth to Bai Yingluo. Before the confinement was over, she turned into a scented soul and was buried in the family tomb of Jing'an Houfu, next to Bai Shiming's tomb, and Bai Yingluo became The orphan girl of the third bedroom of Jing'an Hou Mansion.

Bai Yingluo was ranked sixth among the young ladies in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and because when the third wife gave birth to her, the second wife Su had just given birth to the fifth young lady, so the old lady simply put all the nurses and maids who served Bai Yingluo in the In the second wife's courtyard, let her take care of the two children together.

Therefore, in recent years, people outside have known that in Jing'an Hou's mansion, the old lady Bai's favorite is the sixth miss Bai Yingluo of the third room, but no one knows that this sixth lady was raised in the second room since she was a child. .

The second wife has a son and a daughter, and she took the job because the fifth young lady she gave birth to was of the same age as Bai Yingluo. For so many years, because of Bai Yingluo, the old master Bai and the old lady have rewarded the second wife a lot. thing.Even so, seeing Bai Yingluo's brows becoming more and more beautiful, and Bai Yingyun, who was born by herself, is obviously a beauty, but compared to her, she looks like an ugly monster, the second lady couldn't give birth to joy in her heart.

No matter how disgusted you are in your heart, on the surface, the second lady treats Bai Yingluo very well, but whatever the fifth lady has, the sixth lady must have a share, and even the servants in the mansion say that the second lady It is the heart of a Bodhisattva.

But only Bai Yingluo knew how sad she was in those days, and how painful she was.

Fortunately, she is not the real Bai Yingluo, her soul is the Bai family Luoniang who is as tough as weeds by the wall in the mountain village.

Since even the bodhisattva appeared to let her live again, no one can deceive her in this life, no one can.

I don't know where my mind has drifted. When Bai Yingluo came back to her senses, she saw that the old lady Bai was looking at herself with concern and asked, "Sister Luo, but you are not feeling well? Go back to the room and rest, and come back when you feel better. Talk to grandma, otherwise, grandma won't feel at ease seeing you like this."

The old lady Bai loved herself sincerely. Even though Bai Yingluo hadn't been placed in Qing'an Hall to be looked after by the old lady Bai in those years, she sent people over three times a day to greet her. No one in the whole house dared to despise Bai Wreaths.

Therefore, at this moment, Old Madam Bai turned a blind eye to the smiling faces of her daughters-in-law, but carefully asked Bai Yingluo who was standing beside her. Everyone in the room had already gotten used to it.

Nodding her head in response, Bai Yingluo paid her respects and replied softly, "Grandmother, Luo'er is leaving, and I will come to talk to grandma tomorrow."

Turning around, she bowed to the three wives again. Bai Yingluo moved her lotus steps lightly and walked out. After taking two steps, a girl's charming voice came from behind her: "Sixth sister, stay a step."

Turning around, it was Fifth Miss Bai Yingyun.

"Fifth Sister..."

Turning around and nodding her head, Bai Yingluo turned her head to look at Bai Yingyun with a questioning expression on her face, and beside her, the old lady Bai said strangely, "Sister Yun, your sixth younger sister is not feeling well, what can I say? Let’s talk about it some other day when she has a rest.”

As soon as the old lady Bai finished speaking, Bai Yingyun looked at Bai Yingluo angrily and asked, "Sixth sister, why did you steal my purple pattern pendant?"

The purple patterned pendant was a gift given to Bai Yingyun by Mrs. Beining when she came to Jing'an Hou Mansion as a guest. The meaning of it is naturally extraordinary.

After Bai Yingyun finished speaking, all the people in the room changed their expressions.
