Inheritance policy

Chapter 2 Goodbye

At dawn when the clouds break, there will be a gleam of light outside the ancient city walls of Bianjing in mid-winter, and the sound of watch shifts in Jiujing Hutong will be heard loudly over and over again.

He Xingzhao woke up when he heard the first clear beeping sound, opened his eyes and stared blankly at the blue-blue threaded cloud silk cover that was dragging down from the top, and heard the sound of sand falling in the watch , tilting his head and looking through the curtain, there were two bright shofar palace lanterns standing at the foot of the bed, shaking and warming dimly into people's hearts.

The quilt was infused with the light fragrance of jasmine, not the ice mint fragrance that Zhou Pingning usually likes...
Xing Zhao buried his head in the quilt, took a deep breath, blinked, and suppressed the swirling tears, but his mouth couldn't stop rising.

It's been three days, it's not a dream, it's not an imagination, it's not the underworld, He Xingzhao looked at this pair of white and tender hands with tears in his eyes and a smile on his lips. Having passed Rouge Dankou, she didn't wear a three-inch long armor in order to preserve her nails.I am really still alive, living in the name of seven-year-old He Xingzhao, there is still time for everything, and I can live well.

Or the stubbornness and wantonness of the previous life is just a dream. A dream that lives alone
"Girl, it's three o'clock, it's time to get up." Someone outside the tent called softly.

It was Lianyu, Xing Zhao quickly sat up and opened a corner of the curtain, and whispered with some uncertainty: "Lianyu."

At the age of [-] or [-], Lianyu faced the warm light with her back, she still had gentle eyebrows and eyes that would bend when she smiled, and she had never blushed before. Although she was not very beautiful, she was more than comfortable.

Such a good Lianyu, in order to cover up her act of secretly handing flower notes to Zhou Pingning, was punished by her grandmother to be assigned to a lame farmer in Tongzhou's Zhuangzi.

Lianyu was stared at in a daze, feeling a little apprehensive, touched her face subconsciously, and looked at the little girl who looked like a New Year picture in front of her, staring at a pair of eyes like grapes from the Western Regions, she seemed a little awake, she couldn't help but look at her. It was amused: "Yesterday, the servant came back from leave, and I heard Lian Rong said that the girl said that she was not comfortable and stayed in bed for two days. She was better yesterday, but today the girl still looks like she hasn't woken up."

While talking, the curtain was pulled apart on both sides and hooked on the silver hooks on the twigs. Xing Zhao took the cup containing honey water. The honey water was extremely sweet and warm, and it rushed straight into the stomach. As warm as in spring.

I suddenly feel that there is a long way to go. In the previous life, those who were implicated by their own ignorance, those who were ashamed by their own bad behavior, I am sorry.But fortunately, there is another chance to come again, and the Buddha favored him.In this life, mother, Lianyu, grandmother, He family... all kinds of tragedies, she will not experience it again!

Xing Zhao was feeling grateful and thinking wildly, all the lights in the cabinet were on, and the little girls with long hairs were holding copper basins, clothes, tooth powder and other things, bowed and filed in, and another big girl, Lian Rong, rolled them up from the outside. With the curtains drawn, it can be seen that the sky is still gray and the snow in the yard is crystal clear under the reflection of the palace lanterns hanging from the ceiling of the Courtyard. The girls in the cabinet are orderly, bringing a bit of steam.

He Xingzhao was so excited, he looked up and drank the honey water in small sips, grinned at Lianyu, and after washing and dressing properly, he stood on the blanket and put his hands into his sleeves, but he saw that he was wearing a purple and green embroidered Wanxi pattern skirt. The woman wearing a hundred-flower sash came out of the building holding several boxes. He Xingzhao's eyes lit up, and he said, "Mother Wang!".

Mother Wang is He Xingzhao's wet nurse. Because his biological mother Fang's body was weak after giving birth, He Xingzhao has been raised in Mrs. He's wife's courtyard since he was a child. Since birth, she has served by her side with all her heart, but in the end she was kicked out of the mansion by Princess Yingyi, the successor of the Marquis of Lin'an, and has never been seen since.

Thinking of Princess Yingyi, Xingzhao felt a sharp pain in his heart like a needle prick. Yingyi was like a sudden disaster for the He family, forcing his mother to die tragically. His grandmother hid in Zhuangzi for more than half a year , probably only dad is happy.
Putting the box on the table, Mrs. Wang squatted down and hurriedly got up: "My girl! You have to hurry up. The first two girls, the eldest young master and the seventh young master have all arrived. The third room is from Badeng The lane is almost here! Mrs. Tai also asked the girl if she finished drinking the honey water."

Xingzhao came back to his senses, smiled, raised his head and let Lianyu squat to fasten the belt of the underskirt, cleared his throat and said: "Drink it! I drank it all in one go! Mom wrote down such a long paragraph. Tired of talking? Drink some water to moisten your mouth!"

Lian Rong, who was standing by the side, lowered her head, giggled, picked out a Ruyi lock with a red gold border from the box, handed it over, and said, "Tai Furen can't bear to blame! The girl took medicine for two days, and last night Only then did I regain my energy, so I hurriedly got up today and went to say hello to Madam Tai, Madam Tai will only feel distressed!"

"It means that the girl loves you! Put it in the other master's room, and there is no one to guard the door. The masters have already—" Wang rolled his eyes at Lian Rong, but seeing Xing Zhao secretly laughing with his mouth covered, he had no choice but to stop talking. , nimbly picked out a bean-sized grain of Erchun Shuang Gao, gently spread it on Xingzhao's face, and then muttered: "Today is the first time I came back from Sanfang to give it to you." Madam Tai, please be well, it is a big day, the girl is not self-willed!"

Xing Zhao took the big coat handed over and put it on, raised his head and squinted his eyes, and let Mrs. Wang spread the cream evenly. Hearing that it was Sanfang who came back, he was in a great mood, and nodded indiscriminately. He promised, "Yes, yes, yes!"

In the front hall of Rongshou Hall, a plaque is hung high, on which are the four words "peace and distance" bestowed by the imperial court. Next to the Babao Pavilion of Lihuamu, there is a verdant dwarf pine bonsai, and then through the Chaoshou corridor, inside The laughter and noise can't be stopped.

"The incense here from grandma is not like the usual jasmine fragrance, but it smells like a Buddhist hall... I went back and tried to adjust it myself, but I couldn't make it!" ——This is the third girl from the second uncle's family Sister Ming has always spoken clearly and without sloppiness.

"Third Sister might as well add a few musks to it, and let the incense sit in the sun for another ten days, maybe you will get this kind of smell." ——This is He Xingxiao, the younger sister of Xingzhao.

"Third Sister, I have an idea with you. Ask grandma for a box, and ask for it when it's used up. Wouldn't it be easy!"——The boy with a hoarse voice, but he still couldn't stop making troubles. Waiting for He Yan's eldest son, He Xingjing.

Xing Zhao stood behind the beaded curtain tightly clutching the silk handkerchief, and listened blankly. He was extremely happy, but he was too timid to be close to home. Amidst the laughter, he heard, "You monkeys are sent here by God." Grind me!", and his eyes immediately turned red.

Rue Xiang, who was beside Mrs. Tai, came out of the curtain. Seeing Xingzhao's red-eyed sticking sticks on the edge of the door, she hurriedly saluted and said with a smile, "What are you doing here, Miss Si? But you are blinded by sand? Hurry up." Go in, how many times has Mrs. Tai talked about the fourth girl!"

Xing Zhao smiled and shook his head, wiped the corners of his eyes with a silk handkerchief and said, "It's okay, it's just a little cold outside. Let's go in!"

Rue Xiang bowed her back, took a closer look, and saw that nothing was wrong, she smiled deeper and whispered: "Eldest young master and seventh young master came early, and third young lady also came early. When sixth young lady came, Tai Furen's expression was not good Great! Master Hou and Second Master went to the north gate to welcome Third Master."

Xing Zhao nodded and thanked with a smile, Lian Rong was always clever, and put a white magnolia flower pendant on her body for Yun Xiang, and said with a sweet smile: "Sister is indeed the confidant of Mrs. Tai's side."

Rue Xiang has a lively personality, and Xing Zhao's status is the highest among the girls in the Hefu, so it's just right that these small ways are used to curry favor.

Xing Zhao took small steps to turn around the small screen of Longevity Lord Changjiang, and finally saw Mrs. Chen, Mrs. He, Mrs. Chen .

Xing Zhao took a big step forward, lifted the water-red skirt that was almost on the ground, and took three steps forward, kowtowed to the ground, and the little daughter sang loudly: "Granddaughter Xing Zhao greets grandma, and I hope grandma is healthy and healthy!"
