Chapter 037

Yuan was pregnant for more than a month, and because she moved less and ate more, her cheeks gradually plumped up.

Looking at the mirror today, I couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly held Aunt Zhou's hand up: "Unknowingly, I have gained a lot of weight, doesn't the master come back every day to face me?" It's terrible, I only know how to protect the fetus, and I don't know how ugly it is. ”

Day and night looking forward to having a son, this time the doctor said that there was a ten*, she was ecstatic for fear of some accident, but she was too careful.

Aunt Zhou smiled: "Where is it ugly, but it has become younger, and how cute it is with a round face." ”

Yuan sighed: "If a dozen can be said to be cute, how old am I." Let's go out and take a walk around the courtyard. ”

"This is also necessary." Aunt Zhou said, "You should also move around as usual." ”

Who expected that he would step out of the threshold, and a mother-in-law led Cuilin over, and said with a smile: "The old lady is afraid that Mrs. will lack manpower here, so she asked Cuilin to serve." ”

Cui Lin bent down and saluted: "The slave can do anything, Madame just commands." ”

The sixteen-year-old girl's body is very well developed, the drum of the drum, the drum, the thin, and the words are also hearty, Yuan squinted at her, but unfortunately there is no rule, when she came to Kyoto, she wanted to drive Cuilin away, but she was the one who served the old lady, it was not easy to start, and now it is really a hidden danger. Although the old lady was born in a small family, she learned this style from those high-ranking families, and she was reluctant to let her son be wronged, and knew how to stuff people around.

Yuan's heart was annoyed, but she was not simple, she was used to seeing his wife and concubine in the Yuan family early in the morning, and said lightly: "Let's wait outside first." ”

Aunt Zhou frowned, and after the two went out, she finally couldn't help it, and said indignantly: "The old lady is also confused, she originally connived at the jade fan, but fortunately the old man didn't like it, and this time she got a little girl, I really don't know what to say." ”

"That's it." Yuan's hand stroked his lower abdomen, "It's not the Luo family, which one isn't like this?" If the lord really looks at it, I can't do anything about it. ”

pretended to be generous, but in the end his heart was sour.

It's just that she can't be so small, and men don't like it.

When Luo Yun came back in the evening, he saw an extra girl, serving tea and pouring water, attentive and thoughtful, and took a closer look at Cuilin, who was beside the old lady.

Seeing him look at it, Yuan's hand squeezed the handkerchief tightly in his sleeve, and then pulled it out before saying: "Mother is considerate, she was specially sent to help the concubine today, and the concubine is also clever in looking at people, it just so happens that the master's study lacks a grinding ink, so let her go." ”

Cui Lin was secretly delighted.

As a maid, in addition to marrying a boy in the house, that is, being a concubine with the master, fortunately, Luo Yun was born handsome, even if she is more than ten years older, she can't see it, and then she will give birth to a son like a jade fan. Although she has to serve the old lady every day, she doesn't know how much better she dresses than ordinary slaves, and she thinks it's pretty good.

The corners of his mouth are crooked, and his smile is sweet.

But Luo Yun's brows were furrowed, he didn't know how to hyphenate and still wanted to add fragrance to his sleeves? He didn't think she was born badly, he didn't think she had any ink on her chest, and he didn't know what his mother thought, everyone sent it to him, he lowered his face and said: "There are a lot of people in the study, I see there are a lot of people here, you go back to the old lady." ”

Cui Lin's face turned white.

Unexpectedly, he refused, Yuan was secretly happy in his heart, but said: "Master, my mother has a heart......

It's hard to believe that she is always so virtuous, Luo Yun looked at her face and asked lightly: "Then do you want me to leave her to serve tonight?" ”

It's really hard to answer, Yuan's mouth was half open, and he didn't know how to say it for a while, and his face slowly turned red.

"Let's go down." Luo Yun drank Ling Cuilin.

Yuan Shi lowered her head, thinking that she hadn't done a good job, maybe she should have said that the master was willing, which was naturally a good thing, but she couldn't say it for some reason, or just made a joke and joked about it, it was okay, but she just couldn't make a sound. Maybe when she married into the Luo family, she just wanted to find a good husband to rely on in the next life, and the idea of not demanding anything else finally changed, she didn't unconsciously have some expectations for him, hoping that he would be single-minded about herself, but in this way, it was always too difficult for herself.

How could he?

A beautiful woman like Wang's has never held his heart, so what does she have? In addition to being virtuous, it doesn't seem to have too many advantages.

Seeing that she was silently pulling the chopsticks and never moving, Luo Yun said: "Why don't you eat more when you are pregnant with a child?" ”

She hurriedly ate a few bites.

At night, the two of them lay on the bed, and Yuan talked about Luo Baozhang: "I originally wanted to set it this year, but it is inconvenient to communicate with the ladies of each family, but there are two families, and the concubines are remembered in my heart, one is equivalent to our family background, the lord is the county, and their son-in-law is a lifter, this year's nineteen, I heard that the personality is very gentle, and the wife is also good." The other family has a better family background, only the youngest son is twenty years old, and he has not been admitted to Xiucai......"

"It must be the previous one." Luo Yun said, "The ancestors don't have a long time to shelter in the shade, and you have to have your own ability." ”

"I think the same way, and the wife of the family also has this thought, and she also sent some bird's nest two days ago." Yuan Shi whispered, "Baozhang is not very sensible in some places, but I will definitely know the truth when I see that I am married, and that son is not bad." ”

Thinking that she knelt in front of Mrs. Yuan, she suffered a lot as a concubine, and now she is the housewife, but in the past few years, she has never treated those two daughters harshly, unless she made a mistake, she is unforgiving, like Aunt Jin, she did not hesitate.

She is soft on the surface, but there is still a determination on the inside.

Luo Yun pondered for a moment: "As you say, when you are more comfortable, I will invite the family to come and sit." ”

Yuan smiled and said okay.

The moonlight flowed in from the window, and I don't know if she was pregnant with a child, her eyebrows and eyes were more gentle than usual, Luo Yun leaned over and kissed her lips, she softened all over, but she never lost her mind: "It's still dangerous at this time, or ......"

"Or?" He raised an eyebrow.

Yuan didn't say anything about Cuilin after all, lowered his head and said with a red face: "I serve the master." ”

The curtain hung down, and the house was full of beauty.

Vaguely hearing the news, Aunt Jin was anxious, and came to see Luo Baozhang in a hurry, Luo Baozhang saw that she had a few more gray hairs, and knew that she was not less angry when she lived with her subordinates, so she got up and handed her a few gold bills in her purse, all of which were obtained when she met the ladies on weekdays and gave gifts to each other.

remembered that she was favored in the past and was proud of the spring breeze, but now she can't help but feel a little sad when she looks at it.

"Take it and buy some to eat."

Seeing that her daughter was considerate, Aunt Jin was quite pleased, but she didn't ask for it, and said, "What are you doing for me when you are using money?" Let me tell you, it's the Dragon Boat Festival soon, if you can't seize the opportunity again, you have to marry a poor sour talent! ”

But Luo Baozhang is different from the past today, he has been hit by the Wei family, and he has long been lost, and said in a flat tone: "My identity is like this, who did you ask me to go out and hook up with?" ”

"What hookup?" Aunt Jin stretched out her hand like a chicken claw and grabbed her, "You are like me, you are good-looking, and there are few people in Kyoto who can compare to you, just go out and show your face, there are many sons and brothers who take a fancy to it, will you still be sad about glory and wealth?" What other princes will there be, this Dragon Boat Festival, I heard that several princes have returned to Kyoto, you listen to me......"

The princes all have princesses, so what if she is looked at, she can only be a side room.

The scene of Wei Lian slapping her seemed to be still in front of her, and the disdain of Second Lady Wei never disappeared, Luo Baozhang suddenly laughed and stared at Aunt Jin: "Listen to you, listen to you, you have to be like you!" Why don't you look at you now? Is it still good-looking, do you still have to be spoiled, it's no different from the next people, you want me to live a life like yours! Look at you! ”

Aunt Jin was stunned for a moment.

In the bronze mirror on the dresser, her haggard face was reflected.

Once upon a time, she was as beautiful as a flower, which attracted Luo Yun to stop for her and was willing to take her back to Luo's house, but now, he didn't even look at her.

Aunt Jin seemed to have been stabbed with a knife, glanced at Luo Baozhang, and staggered away.

Looking at her back, Luo Baozhang slowly exhaled.

The depression of many days seems to have been vented on her biological mother, however, she is unwilling in her heart, even if she recognizes her identity and recognizes the reality, she still yearns for the famous family and the mansion of the powerful.

But does she have a chance? In addition to being a concubine.

She smiled.

April 26 is the day of her father's death, if it was usual, she would have burned some paper money at home and toasted her father with a glass of wine, but after becoming Luo Baoying, she could only sprinkle it secretly, only today is different. Luo Baoying sat in the upper room, took the old lady's hand and said: "I want to go to the White Horse Temple, I had a nightmare yesterday, I didn't ask the Bodhisattva to feel uneasy, and I asked my grandmother for permission." ”

"What nightmare?" The old lady is strange.

Luo Baoying shook her head and refused to speak.

Seeing that her face was pale, the old lady thought that it must be a very bad thing, so she comforted: "Dreams are all reversed, how can they be taken seriously? ”

"If you don't go, I won't be able to eat." Luo Baoying took out the little girl's coquettish skills, and shook her grandmother's sleeve again and again, "Grandmother, grandmother, let me go, so that I can pray for my grandmother." ”

There was nothing she could do, the old lady's ears were itchy from her blowing, and she patted her leg and said, "I see that you want to take the opportunity to play, just go, suddenly like a monkey, I can't resist." ”

She was going to the temple, Luo Baozhang said: "Then I'll go with it too." ”

Unlike Luo Baoying who has a good reputation, those noble girls get together to chant poems and do elegant things, they will invite Luo Baoying, and she can't go, she is idle at home, she can't care, she doesn't know the ghost of Lao Shizi, she can't care, she just wants to relax, by the way, ask the Bodhisattva to give her a good marriage, then all the money is okay to take filial piety.

As soon as she spoke, Luo Baozhu stopped doing it and wanted to go.

Yuan Shi was next to him and said: "It's hot, you can join in the fun, stay with me at home, I just chilled the cold melon for you to eat for a while." ”

Looking up at the big sun outside, Luo Baozhu remembered that when he sweated after walking for a while, he dismissed his idea, as for Luo Baotang quietly, he didn't want to go, and finally the two sisters had to take the carriage to the White Horse Temple. Before leaving, Yuan Shiqian told them to come back after the incense, and ordered the maid to watch closely.

Because Luo Baoying is still young, Luo Baozhang is fourteen, just to make a marriage in case something bad happens, wouldn't it be in the soup?

But she doesn't want to be a villain, because she looks at Luo Baoying as if she doesn't want to give up, and now she is the old lady, Luo Yun's favor, it is not easy for her to be a stepmother, and she can only try her best.

The carriage left the city gate and headed for the White Horse Temple.

A breeze came in through the car window, dissipating some of the heat.

Luo Baozhang sat in the car, glanced at Luo Baoying and asked, "Is it really a nightmare?" ”

She didn't believe that ghost girl.

Luo Baoying said: "Otherwise, why should I go to incense?" ”

It is true that there is no doubt about it.

Luo Baozhang picked up the dinner at hand and fanned it twice: "But the Bodhisattva wants a true spirit, a true spirit, I can give it as much as I want, otherwise we won't go for nothing?" ”

"Let's be cramming for a while, don't expect too much, it's good to have one or two percent of the care." Luo Baoying leaned against the wall of the car, looked at the flowers blooming all the way outside, and reminded Luo Baozhang, "Grandmother let us out, we have to be careful, and after we finish our work, we will meet in the guest room and go back together." At this time, there are no elders to stand up for us. ”

There were words in the words, Luo Baozhang knew that she was talking about herself, and snorted: "You take care of yourself, don't think I don't know, Wei San Gongzi is still hugging you!" ”

It turned out that she really saw it.

Luo Baoying thought to herself, fortunately she was still young, otherwise she didn't know how to refute, she puffed out her cheeks and said, "Didn't you see me short at that time?" The third cousin was holding me to light the lantern. ”

"Why didn't you see him holding Zhuzhu?" Luo Baozhang has a vinegar smell.

That's someone he can't provoke, but he's so good with Luo Baoying.

"Zhuzhu didn't have a lantern to light again."

"I don't usually pay attention to him."

"Zhuzhu doesn't like to write and draw."

Between the two bickering, the carriage stopped unconsciously.

Because it is not the birthday of a bodhisattva, there are not many people on the road, Luo Baozhang wore a hat and walked while watching, but unexpectedly, Luo Baoying was small and fast, when she was distracted, she disappeared, and couldn't help but secretly think to herself, this ghost girl must have something to do, and made up the excuse of a nightmare to come to the White Horse Temple.

I don't know why.

When Luo Baoying walked to the temple, she was out of breath, and even left the two little girl rings behind, and when Zifu and Lan Ling caught up, they couldn't find her people, at this moment, I saw a pair of people coming up along the steps, Zifu looked at it, and said in surprise: "It seems to be the Liu family, you see, is it Mrs. Liu and Miss Liu?" ”

Lan Ling's eyes fell on one of the young men, only to see that he was wearing a narrow-sleeved summer robe with a wishful cloud pattern, light boots, a sword hanging from his waist, and an unstoppable arrogance hidden between his eyebrows, he couldn't help blushing, and leaned into Zifu's ear and said, "There is also Yichun Hou." ”

Zifu saw that it was, only the girl was not there, and it was not good for them to go to see them as slaves, so she hurriedly said, "Go find the girl." ”

The two left in a hurry.

Mrs. Liu has a deep relationship with her deceased brother, so every time she dies, she has to come to the temple to ask the monks to chant sutras to surpass him, and originally, Luo Zhen and Luo Tianchi will come together, but in the past two years, only Luo Tianchi has been by his side.

A few people went to the meditation room together.

Because they were acquaintances, Mrs. Liu said that the host knew what she was going to do, and she was ready early in the morning, and after a few words of greeting, she was led to the special meditation room.

A total of eight eminent monks were here, and Mrs. Liu sat on the futon with everyone, and the eight eminent monks concentrated on chanting the scriptures for a while. There is a faint fragrance in the house, unlike the ordinary incense candles outside, because of Mrs. Liu's identity, even the high incense used is also different, and the smell is refreshing.

Listening to Lang Lang's voice in her ears, it seemed to be in a fairyland, Mrs. Liu thought to herself, she didn't know if her brother had a good birth this time, and her niece and daughter, I hope they can live a long life in the next life.

Just when it was peaceful, I only heard a loud sound, and the window that never opened suddenly opened for some reason, and a gust of wind blew in and blew the ashes dyed in the incense burner everywhere, and some even fell on the Liu family, and even Luo Tianchi, they all opened their eyes.

Xiao Shami, who was standing in the corner, hurriedly went to close the window.

One of the senior monks couldn't help but scold: "I don't care about it, I know that this place is in the wind." ”

The little novice was aggrieved, because he didn't know what was going on.

As soon as his hand touched the window, he saw another piece of rice paper fly in, and it seemed to be ink on it, so he grabbed it in his hand and handed it to the monk, who glanced at it, his face changed slightly, and looked at Mrs. Liu.

"What is it?" Mrs. Liu knew that something was wrong and hurriedly asked.

The monk came over and showed her the rice paper.

There is a line of words, light brown, written in fragrant ash: "Auntie, save Zhen'er." ”

Mrs. Liu's fingers trembled, Luo Tianchi hurriedly went up to look, and was also taken aback, Liu Ying didn't know why they were like this, and said softly: "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

"Zhen'er, Zhen'er......" Mrs. Liu was speechless.

Liu Ying looked at the rice paper, and there was a woman's arrogance in the beautiful handwriting, free and easy like the wind, like a sharp blade piercing her heart. Her body shook, unable to support it, and the whole person fell to the right.

Luo Tianchi didn't expect her to react so much, and hurriedly helped people up.

Of course Liu Ying didn't faint, she just panicked suddenly, she didn't expect that this kind of thing would come out after so long, whose trick is this?

She didn't believe that this was Luo Zhen's soul, she was already dead, sinking in the White River, she would never have such ability, otherwise why would she wait so long to appear?

Who is it?
