Chapter 2 The original owner's cause of death
Xiaoxiao opened her eyes again and looked at the house. The roof was made of wooden beams and tiles. The lower half of the wall was only painted, while the upper half was made of earth bricks. The windows were wooden lattice windows, and the pasted window paper had turned yellow.The one who sleeps is an earthen kang, on which there is a kang cabinet.There was an Eight Immortals table on the ground, all of which were half-new. Looking at these things, drowsiness slowly struck, and he really fell asleep.

While asleep, I had a dream, and what I dreamed was the life of the original owner in the first half of his life.It turned out that the original owner of this body was named Shen Xiao'er, but there was only one letter difference from her own name. She was only seven years old this year, her father's name was Shen Chengyao, and her mother's name was Liu Minling. Now everyone is only called Liu Shi.The Shen family has not yet separated, so old Mr. Shen, Shen Rengui and Shen Zhuang are in charge.These two patriarchs gave birth to four sons, one daughter, and one daughter who was not raised, so the old couple were afraid of the youngest daughter.

Shen Chengyao is the third eldest in his family, he is 25 years old this year, while Liu Shi is only 23 years old, although he looks so young, he is already the father and mother of five children.The original owner had a nine-year-old elder brother Shen Jingrui, a five-year-old younger brother Shen Jinghao, and a younger sister who was just a few days old. The relationship between the brothers and sisters was very good.

The original owner was pushed by the second cousin, Shen Beier, because he went to wash clothes by the stream three days ago, stumbled and fell, hit his head on a stone and died.

This second cousin, 11 years old this year, has a beautiful appearance and a pungent personality.The former owner's mother, Mrs. Liu, had just given birth to a little girl four days ago, and it happened to be Mrs. Liu's turn to wash clothes and feed the livestock.Originally confinement people don't have to work, but Mrs. Shen Zhuang didn't say anything, so the second aunt asked Mrs. Liu to do the laundry.During the third bath, the original owner heard her grandma urging Mrs. Liu not to touch cold water, not to do heavy work, not to do embroidery work, and to stay in bed more during the confinement period, otherwise the root cause of the disease will fall.The original owner was worried that his mother would fall ill, so he took the initiative to take over the job.Usually, when Mrs. Liu does the laundry, the original owner will help her, and she has already learned how to do it.

The original owner took the wooden basin and went to the east wing where Mr. Shen lived to collect the clothes that the elders and sisters had changed, and then went to collect the clothes of the second aunt's family in the west wing.The door of the second aunt Li's room was closed, and the original owner was about to knock on the door when he heard the second aunt talking to the second uncle.

"Send Xiao'er's stinky girl to Hu's mansion to be a maid, and you will get 50 taels of silver, 50 taels! How can I send it out. We have saved 23 taels for more than ten years. Now we only need to send that girl In the past, it was only 50 taels for nothing, and I could laugh in my dreams."

"I heard that Yang's mansion recruits maids for the sake of training them and then sending them to Juhualou to be flower girls. The old three will not agree?!" Shen Chengzong's eyes lit up when he heard that there was 50 taels of silver, but what he said was a little bit hesitate.

"This is a rumor spread by everyone. If you believe 11% of this gossip, you can kill you! Besides, do you think everyone can be a prostitute? You have to pay attention to appearance and figure. Just that girl dry flat green beans With the same figure, who would fall in love with it! If you can be a rough cleaning maid, that's pretty good!" Li Shi's words were a bit against her will, although Xiao'er was as thin as a stick, but with exquisite facial features Even now that her skin is tanned, everyone in the village thinks that girl is pretty and smart.Of course, she is not as good as her own daughter. Although she is only [-] years old, her skin is white and tender, and her figure is much better than that of girls of the same age in the village.

"The third child will not be willing to let his daughter become a maid! Our father will not agree, will he?" Even though he said this, Shen Chengzong was already thinking of ways to persuade them.

"The youngest couple are so honest, they can make up any excuses to fool them. Why don't you hide it from Dad, and he can't change anything when things happen. Let's tell Mother, let Mother hide it from Dad, and Yinzi will say The Hu Mansion buys maidservants for 20 taels each, and we can also keep 30 taels a secret!" When Mrs. Li heard Shen Chengzong say this, he knew he agreed.

"Okay! Then let's add up the total. We have to think of a safe way, absolutely." The voices of the two of them became smaller and smaller.

"What are you doing here?" As soon as Shen Bei'er entered the house, she saw the original owner standing outside her door eavesdropping, and she yelled at her, reminding her parents by the way.

The original owner was startled, and stood up straight pretending to be calm, "I came to collect the clothes for washing, but the door was closed and I thought there was no one there! Is the second aunt here? Second aunt, are you in the house? Take out the dirty clothes." , I'm going to wash!" After shouting, he knocked on the door pretendingly, and then called "Second Aunt".

The people inside were startled when they heard the movement outside, so Li hurriedly opened the door and walked out. The original owner reiterated that he was here to collect the dirty clothes for washing, and Li took out the dirty clothes and handed them to the original owner.

"Xiao'er girl is diligent, she does this housework well, unlike your elder sister Bell who knows how to embroider all day!" It's better to sell the life of a muddy leg, and you can get a few dozen taels, which is considered to be of good use.

"Second Aunt, I have to wash the clothes quickly. My mother is still waiting for me to come back and take care of her." ran out.She has to wash the clothes quickly, and then go home and tell her parents what she just overheard.

Because the original owner was young and had little strength, it took a long time to wash the clothes.All the other washers by the stream had gone home, but she was the only one left.She struggled to hold up a wooden basin full of clothes and stood up straight. As soon as she turned around, she saw Shen Bei'er walking towards her angrily, and pushed herself hard without saying a word.The original owner fell backward magnificently, hitting her head on a stone by the stream, and the blood immediately stained the nearby stream red, and she also fainted.

After the dream was over, Shen Xiaoxiao woke up.

Shen Xiaoxiao restrained the memory of the original owner, thinking about her future.I have already crossed over, so it is probably impossible to commit suicide and go back. After all, the chance of crossing such a thing is probably not even one in ten thousand.Since you can't go back, just live here.And maybe this body has the feelings of the original owner for her parents and siblings, so she feels that they are kind and family, so it is quite easy to accept them as her current parents.In modern times, one of the family mottos of the Shen family is to strive to live a good life no matter what kind of environment one is in.Because only in this way can your family feel at ease.Father, mother, grandpa, grandma, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, sister-in-law, please rest assured.Xiaoxiao is still alive, but she has become another person in another time and space.Shen Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, which she hadn't done for many years.

I am Shen Xiaoer, from this moment, from this room.

In modern times, Shen Xiaoxiao has passed away for half a year.That night, several people in the Shen family's old house had the same dream. They dreamed that Hou Xiaoxiao was kidnapped when she was a child. After being rescued, she woke up and saw the heartache and worry on everyone's faces. Don't be so bitter, Xiaoxiao is so smart, no matter what environment I am in, I can live a good life. I have already figured out a way to escape, and you will not give me a chance to play!" Everyone was shocked She was amused by her pretentiousness.When the picture turned, a skinny little girl in ancient clothes had just opened her eyes, and there was a familiar brilliance in her eyes.
