"Ah Shu, you are so beautiful. From the first time I saw you, I fell in love with you..."

A blurry man's face came closer and closer, his eyes shining with eager desire and twisted pleasure, and he pressed the helpless woman under him without mercy: "Now, you are finally mine. .. ... "

No! Get out of here!

No matter how lustful you are, you should not take advantage of your daughter-in-law. What's the difference between you and an animal

Lu Hong is back, how can your father have the face to meet him

"Are you still thinking about A Hong? Stop your wishful thinking. He has already moved into the princess's mansion and is staying with the princess. As soon as King Yan ascends the throne, he will be the emperor's direct brother-in-law. He will climb the dragon and follow the phoenix, which is beyond words. He has already I just forgot about you..."

No! Will not.

He once swore to marry her and grow old together, and he would never be in trouble with her in this life! He must have something to hide. He will not abandon their mother and son...

In the darkness, she struggled and cried helplessly and desperately.

However, no one came to save her.

The man holding her down did whatever he wanted, bringing her endless humiliation and pain...

Ling Jingshu suddenly opened her eyes and sat up straight, her heart beating like a drum, and her palms were covered with greasy cold sweat. After taking a few sharp breaths, the heaving chest slowly calmed down.

There was a chill on his face. Before she knew it, her face was full of tears.

After her rebirth, she kept telling herself that everything in her previous life was in the past. She forced herself to suppress all her hatred and calmly face the poisonous Ling family, the obsessed Lu Qian who ultimately killed her, and the ruthless Lu Hong who abandoned his wife and children... ..

Until Lu An appears, the real nightmare of the past life comes to light. Only then did she realize that she could never forget her shameful past.

"Miss, why did you suddenly wake up?" Bai Yu, who was sleeping on the ground, was awakened by the slight movement. He rubbed his eyes and stood up. He lifted up the gauze curtain and asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"

Ling Jingshu composed herself, wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeves, and said in a calm voice, "Well, I had a nightmare and I woke up. Don't worry, I'll be fine by myself later."

Bai Yu hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Miss, if you don't mind, I can sleep with you!" With someone by your side, you can sleep more peacefully in the rest of the night.

Ling Jingshu hummed.

Bai Yu quickly climbed onto the bed and slept next to Ling Jingshu.

With the warm body temperature of white jade accompanying him, the cold chill in his body quietly dissipated. Ling Jingshu leaned against Bai Yu and closed her eyes.

Bai Yu kept her eyes closed and fell asleep. After hearing Ling Jingshu's gentle and gentle breathing and confirming that Ling Jingshu had fallen asleep, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and opened her eyes, Ling Jingshu's sleeping face came into view.

The young lady was not very stable in her sleep, and her brows were slightly furrowed.

After the young lady woke up from an illness, she was completely different from before. There are some things that you can hide from others, but you can't hide them from your personal maid.

What kind of worries does the lady have? Why is it so restless day and night

Bai Yu frowned and thought hard for a long time, but couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think much about it. Carefully, he put his head close to Ling Jingshu's head and fell asleep together.

... ...

The next morning, when Bai Yu opened her eyes, Ling Jingshu had already woken up. After washing and dressing neatly, she sat in front of the dressing mirror and combed her hair.

Bai Yu hurriedly got up and got out of bed, blaming herself: "This slave slept too deeply, and he didn't even know that the lady got up. It's really outrageous, please punish me."

Ling Jingshu smiled and said: "I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you up. I specifically asked you to sleep a little longer. There is nothing to punish for this. Okay, you can go wash and dress yourself first, and come back later. I comb my hair."

His expression was natural and his tone was relaxed, just like usual. There is no trace of last night's nightmare.

Bai Yu looked at Ling Jingshu for a moment, then relaxed and responded with a smile.

After cleaning up, we had breakfast as usual, and then went to the Yonghe Hall to pay respects to Mrs. Ling. After yesterday's meeting, Ling Jingshu was much calmer when she saw Lu An again. After saluting and saying hello, she stood beside Ling Jingyan and took the initiative to talk to Ling Jingyan.

"Cousin Yan, the hosta on your head is exquisite and beautiful. It must be the latest style in the capital! I have never seen such a style here in Dingzhou."

Just two sentences brought a smile to Ling Jingyan's face, and she replied proudly: "This is the jewelry from the Zhenqiao Workshop in the capital, and the style is the latest. Even the concubines and ladies in the palace, I also get custom-made jewelry from Zhenqiao Workshop! Just this hosta cost a full eighty taels of silver."

Buying a little maid about ten years old is only forty taels of silver. The cost of one hosta is enough to buy two maids, which is really a luxury.

Envy showed on Ling Jingshu's face at the right time: "I heard that Luoyang, the capital, is prosperous and luxurious, but it's a pity that I didn't get to see it. Cousin Yan is lucky enough to live in the capital with her uncle."

After hearing these words, Ling Jingyan felt very touched and smiled reservedly: "Cousin Shu, don't belittle yourself. Maybe you will have the opportunity to live in the capital for a long time in the future."

Although he said this with his mouth, he didn't think so in his heart.

Fifth Master Ling has made no progress in the imperial examination for so many years and can only stay in the Ling family's old house. How could Ling Jingshu have the chance to go to the capital

Ling Jingshu saw the subtle changes in Ling Jingyan's expression and continued to smile calmly: "How can I have such a blessing? By the way, didn't cousin Yan want to teach me the art of planting peonies? If nothing happens today, How about choosing today?"

Originally it had the meaning of competition, but now in Ling Jingshu's words, it has become "pointing".

Ling Jingyan's vanity was greatly satisfied. Seeing that Ling Jingshu suddenly became more pleasing to the eye, she smiled and nodded in agreement.

... ...

Ling Jingyan was originally full of arrogance, but after Ling Jingshu walked around the garden, most of that arrogance suddenly dissipated.

There are many famous peonies planted in the Ling family's peony garden. It was early April, and the flowering period was approaching. Peony buds of various colors were hidden among the green branches and leaves, waiting to bloom, giving them a graceful and charming charm.

Ling Jingyan had seen many famous peony gardens in the capital, and the Ling family's garden was not inferior.

When she saw the Luoyang brocade in full bloom, Ling Jingyan was even more surprised and stopped subconsciously.

Ling Jingshu did not take the opportunity to ridicule, but instead smiled affectionately and said: "Cousin Yan, this complex peony is commonly known as Erqiao, and it is also called Luoyang Jin."

"Cousin Shu, how did you grow this Luoyang Brocade?"

Ling Jingyan stopped being pretentious and asked curiously: "The flowering period of peonies is in mid-to-late April, and it's only the beginning of April now. This Luoyang brocade is already in full bloom. It should bloom in March!"

Ling Jingshu said with a smile: "There are indeed some tricks to this. Since Cousin Yan is interested, I will tell you carefully. First select the varieties that need to be grafted, and then start grafting and planting in August when the temperature is high... ..."

Without hiding any personal secrets, he spoke in detail about his experience in cultivating peonies over the years.

Ling Jingyan also has considerable experience in planting peonies. Upon hearing it, one can naturally tell that Ling Jingshu has given everything to him. She was a little touched and flattered in her heart: "Cousin Shu, this is your unique secret skill that you have been pondering for a long time. You just told me like this. I really deserve it..."

Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and smiled, holding Ling Jingyan's hand and said, "I really don't want to tell people when they ask me these things. But when cousin Yan asks me, I don't mind at all. I just want to tell you everything." Listen. It seems that this is also the fate between us two sisters."

Her bright and sincere smile dimmed everything around her. The beauty is so clear and transparent, and the beauty is so exquisite and flawless that one cannot even feel jealous.

Ling Jingyan was stunned for a moment, then she held Ling Jingshu's hand with her backhand and laughed: "Yes, I also think the two of us are very much in love!"

... ...

Ling Jingyan has a somewhat proud temperament and thinks she is superior to others. Other than that, there are no other quirks. Once you get to know each other, it's not difficult to get along with them.

Ling Jingshu deliberately made friends with Ling Jingyan. When talking to her, she deliberately lowered her body and held Ling Jingyan in every word. In just a few days, the two became good sisters. He also speaks more familiarly and casually.

"Tomorrow is my grandmother's birthday. My second uncle finally made it back in time." Ling Jingyan said with a smile: "If I can't make it in time, I won't be able to see my grandmother in the future."

Although Second Master Ling is only a seventh-grade county magistrate, he is also a parent official of the county. He has a lot of chores on weekdays, so he finally got away and came back. I was delayed for a few days due to illness on the road, and I didn't return home until yesterday.

Ling Jingshu smiled and nodded, then sighed: "The second uncle also brought his aunt and concubine back this time. It's really uncomfortable to see the second aunt forcing a smile on her face."

She doesn't have much fondness for the sarcastic Yue family. But looking at Yue's forced smile yesterday, I couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

Men can have three wives and four concubines, but women must abide by the three obediences and four virtues and keep themselves safe. The world in the inner house is the whole world. Once her husband is unlucky, the woman will have nothing to do but complain...

In a daze, the painful memories of the past life flashed through my mind again.

Ling Jingshu put those annoying memories behind her and calmly changed the subject: "Let's not talk about that anymore. Cousin Yan, I have never been to the capital. Tell me more about the capital and let me talk about it." Eye-opening.”

Ling Jingyan was most happy to talk about this kind of topic, and she could show off at the same time. She immediately asked with a smile: "I have told you a lot about the popular clothes and jewelry in the capital. What else do you want to hear?"

Ling Jingshu was well prepared and immediately said: "Cousin Yan, tell me about the famous doctors in the capital!" (To be continued)
