The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Jiang Dan looked at Jiang Ruan, then at Xia Yan who was nodding, and lowered his head silently. After talking for a while, Mrs. Xia finally said that she was tired and ordered everyone to go back to their rooms first.

Jiang Susu and Xia Yanxian accompanied Jiang Ruan to the ancestral hall and offered a stick of incense to the ancestors of the Xia family. Then Xia Yan and Jiang Susu were about to leave, leaving only Jiang Ruan to spend the night in the ancestral hall.

Xia Yan looked at her distressedly: Ruan'er, it's really hard work for you. If it wasn't for Chao'er and Susu's health, I would have to take care of them. Mother would definitely kneel with you.

What is mother talking about? Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: My mother and I are mother and daughter, and kneeling here for one night is also praying for the Xia family. Maybe the gods in the sky will see my sincerity and give me a gift. Everything I wished for has come true.”

What she said was innocent, but there was no hint of a joke on her face, as if what she said was bound to be true.

What wish does Ruan'er have? Xia Yan asked with a smile.

I hope my father's official career will rise steadily.

The higher you climb, the harder you fall.

I hope my mother is in good health.

To live healthy and watch everything you manage slowly collapse, and feel the pain for a long time.

Brother is famous far and wide.

Everyone in the world knows his name, and he will become a street mouse that everyone shouts and beats.

The second sister will marry a good man.

Then she died at the hands of her favorite husband, just like they treated her in the previous life.

The ancestors of the Xia family, Jiang Ruan clasped his hands together, and said softly, If you can see the sincerity of the believer, let the Jiang Mansion and the Xia Mansion be like the peony in Luoyang, flourishing and open for a long time. .”

You will rot, you will collapse, you will turn from a magnificent mansion into the dirtiest sludge in the world, you will be trampled on, you will plot, you will fight, and finally die in the hands of your own people. Gods in the sky, if you can see Jiang Ruan's sincerity, let the Jiang Mansion and the Xia Mansion be like Luoyang peonies, starting from this moment after prosperity, with an irresistible momentum, slowly, slowly, slowly withering .

She spoke word by word slowly, but the words that appeared to be prosperous and glamorous were like a black curse, covering them with a layer of lifelessness. Xia Yan looked at Jiang Ruan's calm and safe profile, and suddenly felt fear in his heart.

She immediately stood up, barely suppressing the panic in her heart, and said: So, tonight is thanks to Ruan Er, mother still has something to do, so let's go first.

After Xia Yan left the ancestral hall as if fleeing, Jiang Ruan slowly stood up from the ground.

kneel? How can these dregs of the Xia family bear her knees?

She glanced around and found that, as Mrs. Xia said, the ancestral hall had just been repaired. The ground is the coldest stone slab, not even a stove is lit, it is empty and cold. Not even a lamp was turned on, only the faint moonlight was seen through the window. And there was even a hole in the roof, but I don't know if it was Mrs. Xia's handwriting. The cold rain fell through the hole, and it felt even colder when it fell on people.

In such a dark and cold place, only the plaques in front of her were with her, and the green smoke from the incense burner carried a strange smell. Jiang Ruan took out her handkerchief and stood at the place where there was a hole in the window where the air could circulate. She wet the handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, and frowned slightly.

After a while, Lianqiao's voice sounded outside: Girl, this servant is here to deliver some food.

The door of the ancestral hall was opened, Lianqiao and Shuxiang walked in, Lianqiao was holding a food basket in her hand, and said, I went to the kitchen to get some steamed buns, the girl hasn't eaten anything since she came here, she can't collapse. After speaking, he took advantage of the faint moonlight to look at the scholar: What are you still doing, come and help.

Lianqiao is a first-class maid, and when Shuxiang came over, Jiang Ruan ordered her to fill in the vacancy of a second-class maid. Lianqiao was already inferior to Lianqiao, and besides, Lianqiao usually behaved aggressively, even though Shuxiang was so impeccable, she was a little afraid of her. He stepped forward politely, knelt down and opened the food basket.

When doing this series of actions, Shuxiang didn't even look up at Jiang Ruan's face, so she didn't see Jiang Ruan's hand gesture to Lianqiao. Pulling back, her mouth and nose were covered by a veil, and she was about to shout, when a pungent smell rushed into her nose, her eyes went dark, and she didn't know anything.

Forsythia has been working on Zhuangzi for a few years, and she is a bit stronger than ordinary maidservants. Looking at Shuxiang, who was lying limp on the ground, she said, Girl?

Peel off her coat. Jiang Ruan said.

Forsythia quickly took off the scholarly clothes and handed them to Jiang Ruan, who put on them and stood up.

Just let Shuxiang stay here like this? Lian Qiao finally softened her heart.

Ruoxia's family didn't have other ideas, she just slept here for one night for me. Jiang Ruan said coldly: If there are other thoughts, Shuxiang is also from Xiayan, let them turn back in the nest. All right.

Lian Qiao thought for a while, then nodded and said: That's right, the Xia family is too bad, they let the girl kneel in this kind of place all night, it's clear that she wants the girl not to be seriously ill, so poisonous! After reading Kanshuxiang said again: This scholarly fragrance is like kneeling in the ancestral hall for the girl all night. Compared with what she did to the girl, it is not too much. Fortunately, the girl has already ordered the slaves to go to the pharmacy to grab the drug and put it on her body. Emergency is really useful.

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly, if the Xia family only intended to let her catch the cold, Shuxiang would be safe and sound. Unfortunately, the Xia family probably didn't think so, she glanced at the green smoke from the incense burner: Let's go, go to your servant's room first.

In the night, two people dressed as maids came out of the ancestral hall, and one of the maids said angrily, Our girl is too pitiful, just kneeling in the ancestral hall all night, she must kneel down. Scholar, you think so too.

Another maid hummed.

The night was dim, and there were rustling sounds from the woods around the ancestral hall, as if someone had left.

...

In another room in the Xia Mansion, Jiang Susu, who was wearing a veil, took a sip of tea and said to the young man in front of her, Cousin, you should think about it, my eldest sister is one of the best beauties, I just think that such a good person It is very suitable for my cousin, so I want to help you.

Xia Jun looked at her, although his expression was coquettish, but there was a sense of arrogance: put away your little tricks, your thoughts, do you think I don't know?

Annoyance flashed in Jiang Susu's eyes: Cousin, do you agree or disagree with this matter? Among the Xia family, Jiang Susu was most afraid of this Xia Jun. He was already very romantic at a young age, and he had long been familiar with the affairs of men and women, but he still had a gloomy temper. Jiang Susu once hid in Xia Jun's room and wanted to play with him, but when she didn't want to, she saw Xia Jun playing with her personal maid, with cruel methods, the maid screamed again and again, Jiang Susu was terrified when she heard it while hiding under the bed. Brother is even more afraid. And Xia Jun didn't treat her like other men, he always treated her with cynicism.
