Doctor Xianggong, the goddess of poisonous belly

Chapter 26 Rose Flower

The red candle was about to burn out, so I saw an oil lamp on the low clothes cabinet beside the bed, lit the wick, and the last flame of the red candle went out quietly, and the faint light of the soybean oil lamp was dim and yellow, only illuminating the Light up a small area around the bed.

Dong Nuan sat on the edge of the bed and tore open the envelope, taking out the neatly folded beige rice paper inside.

The letter was written by Chunqiao. It said that she and Qiutong had urgent matters and had to go back to Nanbi City immediately. They could no longer serve Miss Ba. They wanted to say goodbye to Miss Ba. I don't want to disturb you, so I leave a letter for Miss Ba, please forgive me, and please take care of me in the future.

After reading the letter, Dong Nuan ignited the letter on the flames, and returned to Lou Yuan in such a hurry, it seemed that they had gained a lot in Yi Wang's mansion.

After Dongnuangu burned the letter, he opened one of the boxes that moved into the house. It contained the winter clothes that Liu Niang had sewed for her for several days and nights. is the warmest.

She took out the clothes from the box one by one and put them on the bed. When she took out the last clothes from the box, she could see a black and white snake coiled at the bottom of the box. Dongnuan looked at the silver ring Snake glanced at it, took out the thinnest piece of clothing from the bed, threw it back into the box, and closed the box lid.

Dongnuan went to open another box, which was her so-called "dowry". When she opened it, it was just a few bolts of red and purple cloth, and there was nothing else.

Dong Nuan so sneered, and slammed down the lid of the box, it was indeed a "so-called dowry", but it was really worthy of the name, no matter what, she never expected that Zuo Xiang's mansion would give her a dowry that she could afford.

Dongnuanso began to arrange her clothes, thinking about how she would spend this winter, the more she thought about her, the more she wanted to laugh, she never thought that one day she would live for these things She is worried about the little things, but this is good, plain and flat, which is what she wants.

"Da..." Just as Dong Nuangu took a dress she was going to wear tomorrow, something fell out of the skirt of the dress in her hand and landed on the hard bed, making a soft sound.

Dong Nuan lowered his eyes, looking at the thing that fell on the bed - a piece of suet white jade pendant with exquisite carving and half the size of a palm.

Dongnuan reached out to pick up the jade pendant. Both sides of the jade pendant were engraved with patterns, one side was a bamboo branch and the other side was a sword. palm.

This is...Dong Nuangu stared at the jade pendant in his hand, a clear light flashed in his eyes, it was something she got in a deal.

Dongnuan gently rubbed the raised bamboo branches on the surface of the jade pendant with his thumb, but his eyes fell on the thin quilt on the bed. He smiled lightly.

This jade pendant seems to be a good thing.

In the next room, Si Jixia did not fall asleep.

The side room is much narrower than the bedroom where Dongnuangu lived, only half the size of that bedroom, but it is full of flower pots, some on the ground, some on flower stands, some Some are placed on the window sills, and some are even hung on the beams. Green plants, big or small, are planted in each flowerpot. Apart from the flowerpots and plants, there is only one piece of bamboo less than half a foot wide in the room. couch.

A gray cotton pillow and a thin quilt were placed on the bamboo couch. Other than that, there was only a bright red cloak. A few or two things formed a strange contrast with the cold weather at this time.

Si Jixia was sitting on the edge of the bamboo couch at the moment, he didn't lie down, just sat quietly with his head lowered in the dark.

He didn't close the window tightly, and the cold night wind gushed into the room through the window gap, blowing the branches and leaves in the room, and gently brushing his right sleeve hanging by his side.

After a long time, he shook off the thin quilt wrapped around him on the bamboo couch, lay down, and fell asleep with his clothes on.

However, a sleepless night.

The winter is warm so she went to bed very late, but woke up when the genius was slightly bright, and was still woken up by the cold. Although she put on two more winter clothes before going to bed, it was still difficult to resist the chill of late autumn. She was always afraid of the cold, so she had no choice but to put on her clothes and get up.

Dongnuan wanted to comb her hair, but found that there was no dowry, bronze mirror, or comb in the room. She frowned slightly, thinking of asking Si Jixia if she had a mirror and comb after washing, but she found that there was nothing in the room for her to use. She washed up, and thinking that she didn't even wash her body last night, her brows frowned even tighter.

In this way, Dong Nuangu's eyes were a little heavy, she walked to the door, raised her hand and opened the door, at the moment of opening the door, a shadow fell on her face.

Dong Nuangu's hand was still on the door, and when he raised his eyes, what he saw was Si Jixia who was standing a step outside the threshold. He was still wearing a cloak, but it wasn't yesterday's red cloak, but a A light gray knee-length cloak with a grayish collar, the gray color reflected his rather pale face, making his already thin body seem even thinner, and his waist-length black hair was not neatly combed , with only a light gray hair tie tied at the end, hanging loosely on the shoulders.

At this moment, I saw him holding a dark red dowry in his only hand. Seeing Dong Nuan, he had a look of astonishment on his face, and then asked: "Is the maid brought by Miss A Nuan yesterday for A Nuan?" The girl left a letter, but Miss Ah Nuan saw it?"

Dong Nuangu nodded slightly, but his eyes fell on the dowry Si Jixia was holding in his hand, and then Si Jixia handed the dowry to Dong Nuangu, and the voice that always seemed faint said uncomfortably: "I forgot to give it to you yesterday." Aunt...Dong... forgot to bring it to Miss A Nuan, I think Miss A Nuan will need it."

Si Jixia spoke three times before he settled on his address for Dong Nuangu, but he still didn't omit the suffix "girl", as if he wanted to distinguish the relationship between husband and wife with his newly married lady.

Nuan girl?Dong Nuan looked at Si Jixia's slightly blush cheeks when he called out this title, and instantly relieved the frown between his brows that was still tight a moment ago, Miss Ah Nuan, this title is quite good, I have never heard of it since I was a child. People called her that, but what would happen to that girl without the suffix?
Dongnuan smiled at Si Jixia to express her gratitude, and reached out to take the dowry he handed over. She smiled without any doubts about Si Jixia, as if what she had experienced and seen in the past two days was all about reappearing. The normal but mediocre knowledge made her not ask him any questions.

The same is true for Si Jixia, he didn't ask why she didn't speak, why she didn't have a dowry, where the maid she brought went, or why her surname wasn't Liu, he seemed to treat her as well. There is no doubt about it.
