Inheritance policy

Chapter 27 Clues
It was very late at night, except for the sound of the wind blowing through the tree branches, there was no other sound.The Huaishan Garden fell into a boundless and spreading darkness, and there was only a dimly shining lamp standing silently at the foot of the bed.

Through the cyan threaded cloud silk cover, Xing Zhao could be seen frowning tightly, gritting his teeth desperately, and sweating on his forehead.

In the dream, a woman in a bright red wedding gown approached. In the white light and nothingness, the red was as bright as trickling blood.The woman's face flashed past, Danfeng eyes, willow eyebrows, and a pointed chin raised high, looking arrogant and mean.

Xing Zhao was so stuffy that he wanted to scream but couldn't.The picture flashed by in an instant, and it was replaced by a woman lying on the ground, holding a red gold hairpin in her hand. Her round face was bruised and purple, and she looked hideous. Her eyes were puffed up, and she looked straight at the zenith. No matter how close they are, they won't close together.

Xing Zhao tried his best to run there, but he couldn't get to the lady's side no matter what.

"Mother—" This is such a stern and helpless call, piercing the night sky of Huaishan Garden sharply.

Xing Zhao sat up abruptly, panting heavily, and wiped his face, not knowing whether it was sweat or tears.Lianyu, who was sleeping on the warm couch, got up quickly, and before she could put on her little jacket, she rushed up and opened the curtain, and what she saw was Xing Zhao, who was still in shock, and couldn't care less, so she sat on the edge of the bed, laying her hands down again and again. He patted Xing Zhao's back, but when he touched it, he found that the little clothes were soaked through, so he called out to the little maid on duty outside: "Warm the pot of tea, and fetch a basin of warm water!"

The lotus leaf who was watching the night outside also heard the movement, took off his shoes and hurriedly lit candles to warm the tea, and brought it in with a tray.

Lianyu served Xing Zhao to drink two sips of tea, and then used a handkerchief to cover Xing Zhao's back who was stunned on the bed, and let the lotus leaf go out, before comforting her softly: "The girl is having a nightmare, it's all right, it's all right. Just wake up. Let's drink some tea and calm down."

Xing Zhao swallowed dumbly, his eyes slowly moved to Lianyu, he glanced at Lianyu's gentle and amiable face under the lamp, his heart ached with sorrow and helplessness, he hugged Lianyu, and buried his face in her arms In the middle of the night, weeping silently: "I dreamed of mother, mother is still dead, mother is still dead."

The last few words seemed to be low in the dust, Lianyu's nose was sore, the girl was planning every day, step by step.From confession, to moving the main courtyard, to clichés.Every step was extremely precise, she knew that the girl was flustered and afraid, and she was definitely not as calm and clear as she appeared on the surface.The way forward is unclear, and two close relatives are involved, so who can plan a strategy without showing any flaws?

"When Lianyu was a child, she heard from the old people in the village that dreams were always reversed. Madam and you will surely turn dangers into blessings." Lianyu comforted her dryly.

Xing Zhao was stunned for a while, then nodded slowly.

The lights in Huaishan Garden were turned on and off, but the lights in the second room of the East Wing stayed on until dawn.

He Xingxiao, who was asleep in the hibiscus flower-carved Arhat bed, was also dreaming. For several days in a row, she had a dream exactly the same as Xing Zhao's - Ying Yichang who came from nothingness in scarlet The princess and a woman who fell dead with a golden hairpin in her hand.

She didn't understand what it meant, she didn't see the dead woman's face clearly until tonight, it was the appearance of the eldest lady Fang!
He Xingxiao woke up screaming, with slightly cold tea in his mouth, but he was groping carefully in his heart.That day when He Xingzhao moved the yard, it was the first time she had this dream. She was so frightened that she lost her strength, and the maid beside her said that she was going to give gifts as usual.

The eldest princess Yingyi in her wedding dress and the eldest lady who fell to the ground and died, what does this dream want to tell her?
He had a splitting headache for a while, and fainted in Wan Yiniang's arms again.

The two little ladies had the same dream, but they both ignored an extremely important point in the dream—the lower abdomen covered by Princess Yingyi's red wedding dress, which was slightly swollen.

************************************************** ***************
Early the next morning, Xingzhao went to the main hall full of worries. The eldest lady had already washed and dressed, and He Yan was there, telling Boss Bai: "Take the post and ask Court Judge Zhang to come, and he must come."

Xing Zhao and Manager Bai passed by, and Manager Bai hurried out after saluting her.Xing Zhao was slightly startled, went into the room and saluted, sat beside the eldest lady and asked, "Who is not comfortable? Please trouble Zhang Yuan to come to see the doctor."

Aunt Liu, the biological mother who was setting the chopsticks and cloth bowls, raised her head to the east and murmured, "Tomorrow will be New Year's Eve. The sixth girl is still ill. As soon as the yard opened, she came crying and begging for the New Year's Eve." How unlucky"

After hearing this, He Yan frowned, a little unhappy: "What are you talking about in front of the girl!"

Aunt Liu is in her thirties, she is the lady's dowry maid, she has always put her heart on the lady, and after she was mentioned after giving birth, she only sees the lady as the master, and her words offended He Yan Unhappy, he didn't open his mouth, but he didn't apologize, and walked around with his head down, standing behind the eldest lady.

The eldest lady treats people softly, and she even protects the maid who has been with her for decades, trying to smooth things over: "Today, Master Hou Muxiu, it's a pity that Mr. Chang won't let Brother Jing go to school when he was a child, otherwise we Then the whole family can go to say hello to Mrs. Tai."

He Yan glanced at the eldest lady, she didn't include Wan Yiniang and Xing Xiao in her words. After so many years of husband and wife, she has not improved at all.After enduring it, I remembered another matter, so I simply didn't focus on this one, and said in a deep voice: "Let's serve dinner."

He Yan, the eldest lady, and Xing Zhao were serious masters, so they sat around the black lacquered elm round table and had a meal. Aunt Liu stood behind the eldest lady and served the dishes.He Yan pays attention to Confucianism, eats and sleeps without talking, so he can only hear the sound of porcelain colliding.Xing Zhao only picked up a few dishes in front of him. Watching He Yan's speed, he drank a small half bowl of red dates and barley porridge. He Yan put down his chopsticks, and Xing Zhao and the eldest lady also put down their chopsticks.

Going to Rongshou Hall, the second lady arrived early with Xingming with a bright expression on her face.Seeing the big room coming in, He Erye smiled and went to meet He Yan.Seeing Xing Zhao, the second lady nodded with a subtle smile, but Xing Ming looked very excited.Xing Zhao smiled back at her.

After greeting and sitting down, Mrs. Tai asked Mrs. Da a few words, "You can't be negligent when sending New Year's greetings from the good friends", "Remember to add some water radishes, small celery, etc. to the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow." Vegetables" asked again: "Have you delivered Sanfang's post?" The lady nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, Sanfang will come tomorrow."

Madam Tai is relieved, this daughter-in-law has to ask and beat all the time, so as not to get out of trouble.Then he turned his head and told the others: "Tomorrow, when the fireworks are set off on New Year's Eve, stay away from Bibo Lake. The banquet in the palace is held on the fifth day of the lunar new year. Tomorrow, both the Marquis and the Second Master remember to come back early, and they will be back soon." I count on you to bring the little gentlemen.”

Saying this, Mrs. Tai's eyes fixed on He Yan for a long time before moving to Second Master.

Everyone got up and answered, He Yan and He Erye went to the outer courtyard, and the eldest lady and the second lady accompanied the wife to talk.Xing Zhao and his two sisters, Xing Ming and Xing Ming, sat on the couch in the northwest corner doing needlework affectionately, making a few interesting remarks from time to time.

Mrs. Tai thought of Xingxiao's illness: "Sister Xiao's illness is still not cured? Then why can't you come out to have a wind tomorrow?"

The eldest lady was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't help but answer: "Yes. I came here today to beg as soon as I unlocked it, and I'm going to ask Zhang Yuanju to come and have a look. It is said that something was wrong last night, and the little lady was sweating profusely. "

Mrs. Tai didn't take it seriously, the previous judge came to see a doctor, and all the prescriptions were prescribed to invigorate qi and soothe the nerves, which showed that He Xingxiao was fine at all, and such an attitude coincided with the New Year's Eve, which was really unlucky.She nodded slightly, then turned the conversation to Xing Zhao's new house.

While talking in the Rongshou Hall, a little maid came to report: "Princess Yingyi's car has arrived at the gate, and she said she came to greet the Marquis of Lin'an's New Year greetings."
