Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 242 Resting in the temple, leisurely time (3)
"You're right."

Mrs. Hu nodded, and saw that Caiqiu and Aluo had already packed their bags, so she got up and said goodbye.

Aunt Hong came to pick her up when she came, and she was the only one to see her off when she left. Although Mrs. Hu didn't say anything, Aunt Hong felt a little embarrassed, and didn't know what happened to the master and wife in recent years. This person became even a little strange to her.

Aunt Hong sighed deeply in her heart, watched Hu get into the carriage, gave instructions to the driver, waited for the carriage to drive out, then turned and left, she had to go back and report to the eldest wife.

Although the eldest wife was gasping in her heart, she had to pay attention to Hu's movements. She at least wanted to know which temple Ji Chonglian took Ji Furong to.

Mrs. Hu did not hide this matter from Aunt Hong, besides, she had already hinted that Tong Jingnian would come to the temple to visit Ji Furong, if the eldest wife thought about intercepting someone halfway, she should stop thinking about it as soon as possible, so as not to make her laugh.

Before Ji Chonglian left, she asked Mo Ju to bring Ji Furong's prescription. She was still worried about the Tong family members. When she left the capital, she found two medical clinics and asked the doctors to carefully distinguish the prescription. After the problem, I picked up several medicines and took them away.

Ji Chonglian felt that the key to Ji Furong's recovery now was mainly her mood, and the medicine only played a supporting role, but she couldn't do without it.

The carriage went all the way to Puji Temple and arrived in the middle of the afternoon.

After Lin Tao and Mo Ju came forward to make arrangements, Master Wen Yuan, who was in charge of general affairs, set up a small courtyard for them and his group. Down the wall, when the yard was built, running water was introduced to form a flowing ditch in the yard.

There are three rooms in the main house of the courtyard, one is bright and the other is dark, Ji Chonglian plans to leave it to Hu Shi to live in.

There are also three rooms in the east and west rooms. She lives separately from Ji Furong, and together with the maids around her, Mo Ju's husband Jing An and the coachman brought by Ji Chonglian will nest in the hut next to the gatehouse in the courtyard. inside.

Jing An and Hong Ying's husband, Jing De, are brothers. When Ji Furong got married, the eldest wife ordered Jing An to follow her. Now that Ji Furong married Mo Ju to him, Mo Ju and Hong Ying could be regarded as the same. Sorry for my sister-in-law.

The Hu family asked for directions along the way, and arrived at Puji Temple near dusk. At this time, Ji Chonglian and the others had already cleaned up the houses and put the vegetarian dishes prepared by the temple master on the table.

If you want to live here for a while, it’s unrealistic to eat fast for a long time. Besides, Ji Furong also wants to maintain her body, so she can’t ignore nutrition like this, so after they settle down, they still have to start their own business. Fortunately, there is a restaurant not far from Puji Temple. In a small town, it is convenient to buy vegetables, meat or daily necessities there.

Ji Furong has been lying on the bed since arriving at Puji Temple. Although she felt a little frightened at first, her spirit seems to be better than when she was at Tong's house. She even eats more dinner than usual. Mo Ju sees this I am naturally happy in my heart.

After a busy day, everyone was exhausted, and after dinner, they went back to their houses to rest.

Ji Chonglian slept until midnight, when she suddenly heard a scream from the east chamber, she woke up immediately, Caiqiu hurriedly turned on the lamp, Ji Chonglian put on her coat, and the two rushed to the east chamber.

"What's going on here?"

Ji Chonglian knocked on the door of the East Wing, and saw Ji Furong trembling in Mo Ju's arms, with wet tears still on her face, the panic and fear that could not be concealed on that face reflected in the candlelight .

"Fifth girl, our grandma is a nightmare."

Mo Ju looked at Ji Chonglian apologetically, "Since... since that incident, grandma often has dreams and often wakes up in the middle of the night. The servant girl is used to it, but it only disturbed Miss Wu."

Mrs. Hu then rushed over, and when she saw that there was nothing wrong, she went back first.

Ji Chonglian thought for a while, then turned to Caiqiu and said, "Take all my bedding, I will sleep with my eldest sister tonight."

Mo Ju was a little surprised, and said without thinking, "Fifth Miss, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well, so let me come!"

"It's okay, I want to be with my eldest sister tonight."

Ji Chonglian shook her head with a smile, Mo Ju moved away helplessly, and Cai Qiu turned back to get the quilt.

Ji Furong was lying flat on the bed at this moment, but her eyes were still open, staring blankly at the bare roof.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Ji Chonglian was not in a hurry to speak, but just looked around. Although the formation here is a bit simple, it is clean and refreshing everywhere. When you open the lattice window, you can see the faint scenery on the mountain stream. listening to the sound of the mountain spring water dripping into the ditch, even the complicated mood calmed down.

Ji Chonglian took out the white silk handkerchief in her sleeve pocket, looked at the nondescript lotus flower picture on it, couldn't help laughing, twisted a corner of each hand, held it up in front of Ji Furong, and said with a smile: "big sister I remember that this handkerchief was originally embroidered by Biyuan for me, but my eldest sister came to see me at that time, and she wanted her to embroider hibiscus flowers again, saying that although our sisters are different flowers, we should bloom and thank them together. , always gorgeous!"

There was a crystal light flowing slowly in Ji Chonglian's eyes, "Big sister, do you still remember?"

Ji Furong's expression fluctuated slightly, but she didn't speak, but the corners of her lips were pursed tighter.

"Big sister must remember."

Ji Chonglian's eyes fell on the silk hibiscus flower, she stroked it gently with her fingers, and sighed: "Big sister is the hibiscus flower in my heart, so beautiful, so proud, and so shining, I will never forget the flower in my heart. The moment you held me in your arms when you were hurting and helpless, we are sisters, and we will help each other in this life, and we will never leave!"

Caiqiu pushed the door open and entered, quickly spread out the quilt for Ji Chonglian, then retreated silently, leaving only the inner room to their sisters.

Ji Chonglian carefully straightened Ji Furong's quilt, and then lay down, but gently took Ji Furong's hand and held it in her palm. It will be fine, because I will always be with you!"

Mo Ju tidied up the soft couch in the outer room, then glanced at the other side of the couch, finally blew out the candles, and retreated slowly.

The night is like water, spreading silently in the tranquility.

Ji Chonglian had already closed her eyes, the sound of her slow and rhythmic breathing rang in her ears, Ji Furong's closed eyes suddenly opened, the eyes in the sunken eye sockets were big and bright, her slender eyelashes blinked After blinking, tears silently slid down her cheeks, melting into the brocade quilt under her body drop by drop.

It has been two months since she was born, but she can never forget the scene at that time. Her skirt was soaked in blood. She wanted to hold on to that little life, but she could only watch it go by like this. How can this kind of pain be spoken?
