In the sound of the rain, the human voice was so small that it was covered up, and it was vaguely audible. It was Tao Wanshu's voice.
"Sister, sister, open the door for me, sister—"
Liu Ying jumped down from the cubicle, and put on his clothes in a hurry. It was not surprising to see that Su Kui was not asleep. Frowned and whispered: "Master, look at..."
Su Kui lifted her chin, "Let her in, I'm sorry." She supported her forehead with one hand, and fiddled with the raindrops splashing in from the window with the other hand, saying boredly.
Liu Ying couldn't hear her emotions, but she thought of the rain outside. In this kind of weather, although it was sultry, it would be ill if she had been exposed to the rain for a long time.
In Lenggong, if you catch the wind and chill, you can only do it hard, no one will enter the ominous place like Lenggong to treat these forgotten and abandoned women. Generally, if you get a serious illness, there is basically one way left: wait for death—
Therefore, Liu Ying hurriedly put on his shoes, opened the umbrella and trot to open the door.
After a while, Tao Wanshu came in wet and shivering behind Liu Ying. She stood at the door with water stains on her small face. She didn't know whether it was rain or tears, her eyes were red, and she looked at Su Kui with endless fear.
"Sister, it's terrible." She was referring to those women, Su Kui knew.
She hooked her finger and said softly: "Come here."
Tao Wanshu walked over, squatting in front of her, putting her head on her knees, and suddenly burst into tears without warning.
The wet water vapor on her body immediately wetted Su Kui's thin coat. Liu Ying worried that Tao Wanshu would give Su Kui too much moisture, and opened her mouth so worried that Su Kui waved back silently.
Who knows what the girl next to you is crying? Crying for family members who will never see again, crying for a hopeless future
Su Kui casually leaned on the back of the chair and gently patted the girl's back with one hand, looking blankly towards the dark rainy night, without the slightest emotional ups and downs in his eyes.
Tao Wanshu cried for a long time, and finally cried so much that she couldn't open her eyes. She blushed embarrassedly, Su Kui smiled, and indifferently asked Liu Ying to take her to wash.
In the cold palace, she was considered a decent one.
Although it is not rich, there is no shortage of what should be.
Tao Wanshu slept in Su Kui's room that night, and Su Kui sat at the window all night.
Early the next morning, the sky broke, and layers of white fish maw appeared in the distance, and the fire seemed to make the sun emerge from the sea of clouds, magnificent and magnificent.
When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the room, shining on the old Babu**, Tao Wanshu yawned and opened her eyes groggy. Seeing Su Kui, she said in a daze: "Sister, are you up so early?"
Su Kui curled her lips and made a faint "Um" sound, then got up and went outside to wash.
Here, she is no longer a lady who is always served everywhere, and a concubine who has been loved so much. She is just a self-reliant ordinary person.
Tao Wanshu saw her go outside, and quickly got up and followed out. The rain stopped in the second half of the night. Coming fast, and going fast, the sky washed by rain was blue and clear, and the air was moist and earthy.
The vegetable seedlings in the yard, as Su Kui thought, were devastated. She stood by the vegetable field distressed for a long time before pulling out the dead seedlings one by one, planning to replant them tomorrow.
