Chapter 283
Song Guanzhou's expression in the dream was shattered, and he couldn't catch the illusory figure, "You said I was killed by the billboard?"
The woman choked up and said, "Yes, it hurt for quite some time. I died when the ambulance came."
Haha!
thank you!
"Why, you want to come back and grab this body now?"
The woman refused repeatedly with a nasal voice, "I have died four times now. The Black and White Impermanence said that I can reincarnate and no longer suffer the pain of dying early. I am telling you this today so that you don't want to return to the world. It's not possible!"
Damn it, uncle!
Song Guanzhou stamped his feet and chased after the illusory figure. "You are free, but what about me? Do you know how powerful Jin Fuyun is? How can an orphan like me fight against her? Your adopted brother... he has never shown up since I came into this world. Why don't you just get back and continue your ruined life?"
"No no no!"
Song Guanzhou was furious when he heard that voice, and he was even more determined to leave. "You are now valued by my husband. In this respect, you are smarter and more capable than me. You will definitely be able to turn things around. Take care."
The smoke was choking, and the words that Song Guanzhou wanted to say were blocked by the thick smoke.
She couldn't find her direction in the fog, and couldn't speak.
She was so exhausted and anxious that she actually started to cry. Someone stretched out his arms and gently comforted her. His voice as smooth as jade brought her back from the nightmare.
"Watch the boat, watch the boat..."
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she still couldn't wake up.
The voice became louder, "My lady, wake up..." After shaking a few times, it startled a storm in her dream. The storm came and swept away the fog. Her eyes suddenly became clear, but she didn't have time to look further as she was dragged back by gravity.
I opened my eyes, but I couldn't see Pei An in front of me.
But she smelled the scent of soapberry on his body, which was fresh and fragrant, and it calmed her drowsy state.
"Shiro——"
Pei An hugged her, "Another nightmare?"
Song Guanzhou stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, sweating profusely.
"Yeah, I dreamed about some old friends."
She leaned against Pei An's arms, tightly pressed together, "Silang, go back and tear down the Jianshui House, okay?"
Pei An heard this and lowered his head to kiss her sweaty forehead. "Did you dream about the Jianshui Room?" Song Guanzhou nodded. "That place is my lifelong nightmare. Now that I am in the mansion, I don't want to go there. Silang, that is not a good place. I hope that after me, no one will go there and suffer the torture."
"it is good."
Pei An tightened his arms, wishing he could crush the soft body in his arms into his heart.
"I wanted to demolish that place after my third brother's accident. But..." He sighed, "That place is unlucky, but it happened to be the place where my grandfather had people build it. My father has always been filial, and he thought that there were not many memories left by my grandfather, so he never agreed."
"If this is the case, I'm afraid my father still won't agree."
"Forget it. I'll go tell him again that Jianshuifang was once a place for burning paper and incense. Who would have thought it would become a private prison? It should have been demolished long ago."
"it is good."
Song Guanzhou raised his head and gently bit Pei An's chin, which was already covered with stubble. "Silang, if you agree to this, you can't go back on your word."
"...Of course not."
Pei An was also tired. After a few words, the two of them, without paying attention to anything else, hugged each other and fell asleep again.
They live in harmony with each other as a couple.
The scene in Xu Lingqiao's room was quite different. She didn't want two servants to keep watch at night. "If you two come, there will be no one to serve in Guanzhou's room. I'm afraid that's not appropriate."
She felt even more guilty for causing trouble for others when they just met.
Zhuang Gu could see that this cousin had a gentle temperament and was very well-educated. Thinking about what her young mistress had told her, she, who was usually taciturn, became more talkative now.
"Don't worry, cousin. On weekdays, as long as the fourth young master stays at the young lady's place at night, we won't keep watch."
Hearing this, Xu Lingqiao's thoughts wandered. After careful consideration, she asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, please tell me, besides my cousin, does the Fourth Young Master have other concubines?"
Lotus laughed out loud.
"Don't worry, cousin. My fourth master treats the young lady wholeheartedly. Now the young lady is the only one in Shaohua Garden. The fourth master has never had any concubines. It's just that sometimes the fourth master will go to the study to rest because he is drunk and afraid of disturbing the young lady."
It turned out to be the case.
Xu Lingqiao nodded slightly, "The Fourth Young Master seems to be a man of great loyalty and righteousness, but I heard some rumors along the way, and I thought it might be difficult for Guan Zhou to stay at his mansion. My brother and I were afraid of adding burden to my cousin if we rashly went to his house."
Zhuanggu and Lianhua talked to each other and explained the general idea.
"Don't think too much, cousin. The old lady in the mansion doesn't care about things now. Although the prince's wife is not very close to our young lady, they are still at peace. The mansion is not as bad as the rumors outside, cousin will know when she enters the mansion."
After that, he also talked about the current situation in the mansion.
"The two uncles of the Xiao family, the old lady and the wife of the Crown Prince, brought their relatives to Beijing to celebrate His Majesty's birthday a few days ago. They said they would leave after the Dragon Boat Festival. The grandmothers and girls of the uncles are very kind. When the time comes, it will be nice for you to meet them. It will give you more company."
After listening to a lot, Xu Lingqiao became even more worried.
She knew that she was no longer the same person she had been before, and when she heard that there were still people from the two branches of the Xiao family in the mansion, she couldn't help but worry.
But on second thought, I now have no way out.
After asking about her brother, Lianhua said while helping Xu Lingqiao wash up, "The person who came to report the news was a young apprentice of Doctor Sun. He was vague, and the young lady didn't know if it was you. She temporarily put aside the matter at hand, concealed it from everyone in the mansion, and found a close friend, Brother Liu, to come out on horseback."
"Thank goodness my cousin for thinking it through."
Xu Lingqiao thanked her in a low voice, and Lianhua smiled and said, "Don't worry, cousin. We are little slaves, and the young lady values us. She doesn't despise our stupidity and has never scolded us during the time we have been by her side. The young lady is the only one in our hearts. She has ordered that everything that happened to cousin should not be spread to others, and we are also keeping it in our hearts."
After some kind words of persuasion, Xu Lingqiao fell into a deep sleep with a mixture of emotions in her heart.
It was the first time she had a good sleep in the two days since she was rescued by Hua Chonglou. When she woke up, it was already dawn.
Zhuanggu and Lianhua got up early. Yesterday they rolled up their bedding and slept next to her bed until dawn. They went to the kitchen to boil water and cook early in the morning. When Xu Lingqiao woke up, hot water and porridge were also brought to her.
"Thank you for troubling my sister-in-law and sister Lianhua."
Lotus and Xu Ling were combing their hair together. "My dear cousin, please don't frustrate me. These are just trivial matters. I don't think you should worry about them. My dear cousin and my young mistress really look alike."
Xu Lingqiao raised her eyes and looked at herself in the bronze mirror.
She touched her cheek and shook her head slightly.
How can such a fairy cousin compare to...
