Song Jianing vowed that she would never eat lychees in her life.

Waking up in the middle of the night, Song Jianing touched her little neck and warned herself secretly.

After the warning, Song Jianing immediately lowered his head after thinking of something. She couldn't sleep well these few nights. Either she dreamed about the scene where she choked to death eating lychees, or she dreamed that she had become Guo Xiao's concubine again. The mother was worried about her, so she ordered Jiu'er to sleep on the floor with her. There must also be a lamp in the room. The dim yellow light came in through the gauze curtain. Song Jianing saw a pair of chubby little hands.

She breathed a sigh of relief. It was already the fourth night. It seemed that she was really back when she was ten years old, and her mother was not terminally ill.

It was the first month of the month, and the small households in the south of the Yangtze River couldn't burn the ground dragon, and the charcoal fire was extinguished early. The warmth came back, but Song Jianing's drowsiness completely disappeared, lying motionless, frowning and worrying.

mother's illness...

In her previous life, her father died of illness when she was six years old. At that time, she was too young and could barely remember things. She was sad for a long time when her father just passed away. , aggrieved to ask Dad. But as the days went on, the figure and face of her father became more and more blurred. In the end, she could barely remember anything except that she had a great father, who fell ill and died.

She forgot that she should eat and drink after she was sad. At most, she envied others for having a father, but her mother did not forget. Of course, when her mother was still alive in her previous life, Song Jianing didn't understand why her mother would shed tears whenever she moved, and she didn't eat much food, making her thinner and thinner, as if she would fall over when the wind blew.

The maid next to her mother told her that her mother was crying because she remembered her father. Song Jianing still didn't understand. She also wanted her father to live, but why didn't she think of crying

Later, her mother fell ill from lovesickness and passed away in the autumn when she was eleven years old. Later, she became Liang Shao's concubine. She tasted the love between men and women, and was stabbed again by Liang Shao, and Song Jianing suddenly understood. Mother. When my father was alive, he must have been very good to my mother, so my mother never forgot. If Liang Shao was also kind to her, and she was taken away by Guo Xiao, then even if Song Jianing didn't have the courage to die for the festival, he would definitely think of Liang Shao often, instead of hanging around heartlessly.

Alas, why do you think of that villain who sold his concubines for glory

Shaking his head and throwing Liang Shao out of his mind, Song Jianing continued to worry about his mother.

After living an extra lifetime, now Song Jianing can understand her mother's thoughts of her father, but she can't let her mother read it, otherwise her mother will die again, leaving her alone. She had to find a way to divert her mother's mind... My mother was a widow, and a widow who couldn't get out in grief. She didn't even open the door without opening the door, and she didn't even visit her aunt. She was bored in the room all day, except To take care of her is to miss her father, and it is strange that she is not sick.

The first thing she had to do was to persuade her mother to go out for a walk. What about widows? Many widows have remarried. My mother likes a widow whose father is willing to stay for the rest of her life, so she will always be with her. In the future, she will choose a reliable man in the county to marry, have more children, and bring her children with her. Women often come to accompany mother to relieve boredom.

Well, when the weather is warm and the peach blossoms bloom, she must ask her mother Yang to take her to the edge of Taihu Lake. Taihu Lake, she hasn't been there for a long time. She still remembers that there are willows Yiyi, peach blossoms, and beautiful and tender beside Taihu Lake. The white fish, the thin shell and the fresh white shrimp…

Song Jianing fell asleep, dreaming that her mother took her to the lake, and the mother and two sat on the painting boat and set a table of delicious food.

In the early morning, Mrs. Lin came to visit her daughter, and saw that her daughter was sleeping with a ruddy face, delicate and charming, beautiful and beautiful, and the corners of her mouth were drooling again. Lin was both loving and bewildered. Neither she nor her husband had much appetite. Where did her daughter's gluttony come from

Her throat was itchy, and Lin hurriedly walked around behind the flower-and-bird screen in front of her daughter's bed, covered her lips and coughed lightly, feeling infinite sadness in her heart. The daughter has been having nightmares these days. She is a mother and should have slept with her daughter, but she dared not, for fear of passing her illness on to her daughter.

The suppressed cough woke up the soundly sleeping Song Jianing. She rubbed her eyes and called out vaguely, "Mother?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin quickly tucked the handkerchief back into her sleeve, walked to the bed with a smile on her face, hung up the tent and said softly, "An An is awake?"

The daughter was born prematurely and was thin and small when she was first born. She was afraid that she would not be able to support her, so she took the nickname "An An" and the name "Ning", hoping that her daughter would live in peace. Probably the name works. When she was one year old, her daughter was already fat and white. The children of other families had to coax her to eat. The elders chased around with the bowl. Eat more.

Sitting crookedly on the edge of the bed, Mrs Lin pinched her daughter's chubby face lovingly.

When the mother's rare daughter, Song Jianing also looked at her mother eagerly. From childhood to adulthood, the women around Song Jianing, from women in their 40s and 50s, down to girls in their 50s and 60s, have been trying to find ways to make themselves thinner. Like Song Jianing, her face will tremble slightly when she walks. As soon as she goes out, people will laugh at her and call her Song Fat Fat.

Song Jianing, she also thinks that the woman is thin and good-looking, with a small waist and a tight waist, and a long skirt with a narrow waist, like a fairy, but she prefers to eat. It is said that you can't have both fish and bear's paws. After Song Jianing was hungry a few times, Decided to give up the waist and chose gourmet. And Song Jianing slowly discovered that they were also thin, some were shriveled like bamboo poles, and there was another type, like a mother, who was graceful and graceful, like a weak willow supporting the wind.

In Song Jianing's mind, her mother is the most beautiful woman in the world, but unfortunately, she has the same almond eyes and the same melon face. The eyes are not honest, thinking about hooking people!

"Mother, teach me to practice calligraphy." Song Jianing hugged her mother's arm and whispered coquettishly.

Strangely, Lin held her daughter's little hand and asked, "Have you quarreled with my sister again?" She was not physically fit, so she hired a female gentleman to teach her daughter, and the uncle brought her niece too. The sisters study together and have a companion. , but the niece is domineering, and the little sisters occasionally get upset.

Song Jianing shook his head, buried it in his mother's arms and said, "I want to write the same words as my mother." She took up a quarter of an hour for her mother, and her mother thought less of her father.

Daughter is used to acting like a spoiled child, Lin Shi thought about it and agreed: "Then you go to the study room first, and then mother will teach you alone after school."

Song Jianing nodded obediently.

After having breakfast with his mother, Song Jianing led the maid to the study in the front yard to read with her eleven-year-old cousin Song Jiao. Song Jiao was still the way she remembered. She wanted to push Song Jianing over everything. The lady asked questions, and she rushed to answer them. Song Jianing secretly envied her cousin's cleverness in her previous life, but now she has everything in her mind and her mind frequently wanders.

In the future, how will you get along with the second room

In the last life, when her mother died of illness, the second uncle and aunt treated her well for a while, coaxing her to take out her mother's dowry for them to use, and the couple's real face was revealed. concubine. During this period, Song Jianing wrote a letter to her uncle and aunt in the capital, hoping that her uncle would take her to the capital, but her aunt in turn persuaded her to think about the past, meaning that the elders treated her badly, and it was she who made the mistake first.

Song Jianing's heart was sour. Maybe her mother insisted on keeping filial piety, because her parents didn't welcome her back, right

That's all, no matter how bad the second uncle and the second aunt are, they should be afraid of their mother. As long as the mother recovers and is healthy and long-lived, the second uncle will never dare to arrange her marriage indiscriminately.

The morning class was over with her thoughts on her mind. Song Jianing and Song Jiao sent the master out together, and then the sisters went back to their respective homes. Song Jianing walked briskly to find her mother, and when she arrived at the upper room, she was surprised to find that the second aunt, Mrs. Hu, had come and was sitting in the main room talking to her mother, as if they were discussing something.

"Mother, second aunt." Song Jianing called out obediently, moving her short legs to her mother's side, looking at her aunt complicatedly.

Hu was twenty-five years old this year, two years younger than Lin, and she was also a thin woman, but her complexion was darker and her face was a bit long. At this moment, he asked Song Jianing with a smile: "The day after tomorrow, when Jiaojiao's grandmother celebrates her fifty-fifth birthday, would Jianing want to go? This time I invited a cook from Zuixianlou, and Jianing will definitely like it."

Zuixian Lou is a well-known restaurant. Song Jianing still remembers the dishes there. She wanted to eat it, but she didn't want to go to Hu's house.

"My mother is not feeling well, I want to stay with her at home." Song Jianing leaned on her mother, looking reluctant to leave her mother.

Knowing that her daughter was greedy, Mrs Lin said with relief, "Go An An, both your elder sisters and elder brothers will go, and you can play together."

Song Jianing didn't speak, she hugged her mother and twisted around, silently acting like a spoiled child.

Lin's heart melted, so she had to say to Hu: "Then let An An accompany me, you go, and say hello to the old lady for me."

The two mothers were in one heart, and Mrs. Hu laughed dryly, got up and left, leaving the courtyard of the big house, her face immediately tense, and her face was full of dissatisfaction. A day later, Lin sent a maid to deliver a birthday gift. Hu felt a little more comfortable. When he looked up and saw her husband looking at the big room with regret, Hu immediately hated it again. Hu Meizi, both mothers are Hu Meizi, especially Lin Shi, who won't say anything about his own man, and hooked up his brother-in-law's soul.

With hatred in his heart, Mrs. Hu did not show her face, and called a pair of children, and the family of four drove a mule cart to visit relatives in the next county town.

There is a younger brother under the Hu family, named Hu Zhuang, who is in his early twenties. Seeing the mule cart of the Song family from a distance, he rushed over there, but the brother-in-law's family of four came down, and there was no one else inside.

Hu Zhuang's face became stinky, he looked for an opportunity to drag his sister aside, and whispered, "Where's the person?"

Lin was beautiful, and he had been thinking about her since the day she was a widow. However, Lin's family didn't go out easily, and his sister forbade him to make trouble at the Lin family's house, so he could only wait for the opportunity. A few days ago, my sister promised to bring Lin shi with him. He was so excited that he didn't sleep well for three consecutive nights.

Both the husband and the younger brother coveted the Lin family, and it became more and more proving that the Lin family was good, and the Hu family was unhappy.

Hu Zang was so anxious that he touched the back of his head and begged his sister: "Then sister let me go? I promise..."

"You dare!" Hu Shi gave him a fierce look, and said solemnly: "She has a strong temper, who can afford to cause a life? Just wait for me, I don't believe she will never go out in her life!" In the wilderness, even if Lin shi would rather die than give up, and people die, as long as the younger brother's hands and feet are clean, the government will not be able to find them.

At that time, there will only be one and a half old girls left, and she is good at coaxing and coaxing, and the generous dowry brought by the Lin family is hers.
