Concubine Survival Guide

After taking a dose of medicine, Long Bisheng's haystack was cured.

Feeling that his throat was not so uncomfortable, he sat up from the bed and asked Xiping who was waiting at the door, "Has the young master left?"

"Returning to the master, the young master has gone back to rest, and he just left." Xiping replied and walked in, asking: "Does the master want to drink water?"

"No, I'm a little hungry. I didn't eat anything last night. Let the kitchen make some porridge. I can't eat anything else." While ordering, Long Bisheng sat up on the edge of the bed.

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiping's mouth, and he turned and walked out the door.

Hearing that there were no footsteps at the door, Long Bisheng put on a coat and took out something from under the mattress.

What was opened in the palm of my hand were two sheets of thin rice paper stacked together.That night, after paying his respects to the eldest lady, he left. He accidentally picked up the brocade bag on the ground. He didn't expect to take out the Pisces jade pendant from inside. hide.In a blink of an eye, he became more thoughtful, put the empty brocade bag where it was, and hid behind the courtyard door secretly, wanting to see who lost the jade pendant.

Such an important thing, if you find it is lost, you should come back and look for it.

But the person who came was too light-handed, and when he heard the sound, the person had already taken the brocade bag and ran away.

Long Bisheng searched for a long time but found no trace of this person, so he wondered if the person who came was a martial arts master.With this doubt, he was afraid that this person would come back and find him again, so he left immediately, not daring to stay longer.

He never thought that he would suffer from dryness not long after he went back. He endured it for a while, anxious to know the secret of the jade pendant, so he didn't ask Dongping and Xiping to call for a doctor.This time it happened that he was lucky, and after rubbing it for a while, it happened that he got a rare hourglass with mechanism some time ago. When his fingers pressed down on the four corners of the jade pendant at the same time, the jade pendant separated up and down, revealing the contents inside.

As soon as she hid the jade pendant and wanted to see what was written on the thin paper, Chunyi, the troublesome maid, went to report to Long Bifei that he was ill.

Seeing Long Bifei entered the house, he had no choice but to hide his things under the mattress in panic, and lay down on the bed covered with a quilt.

It wasn't until today that I had a chance to take it out and have a look.

Long Bisheng opened his eyes wide and started to read the first word, but he couldn't help but froze on the spot in astonishment. He couldn't help covering his chest when he saw half of it, and had almost no way to read the second half.

"How could this be... No, it's not true, it can't be true..." The content written on the paper was too strange, not to mention that Long Bisheng couldn't believe it, even if only one thing was true, He also felt a dull pain.

What's more, one of the secrets has a great connection with him.

Moreover, Fifth Yiniang died in a strange way knowing the secret, doesn't it further explain the authenticity of these things?There is another thing that he is particularly concerned about. If the truth is as Wu Yiniang knows, then the death of the third brother is also inseparable from this jade pendant?

"No, maybe not... At that time, no one knew that Bixiu had this jade pendant." Long Bisheng murmured to himself, when he heard a noise outside, he quickly folded the two pieces of paper and stuffed them into the pillow Down.

Xiping brought a jasper cup, filled a bowl full of lily barley porridge, and handed it to him.

Long Bisheng waved his hand and said that there is no need to wait, he took it by himself, picked it up, and drank it in one sip, but his mind had already gone away.After finishing drinking, he told Xiping: "Later, go and invite ten young masters to come over for lunch."

"Yes, master. Then... Eldest Young Master, should I..." The Eldest Young Master said inexplicably that the Master has woken up, which is not appropriate.

Long Bisheng thought for a while and said, "Let's report after the young master wakes up."

Following the news, Sheng Yan came out of Xiaoxiangtai one step earlier and came to Chenxiang Pavilion.After sitting in Long Bisheng's room, seeing that he looked good, he felt relieved, so he took his hand and shook it, and said with a smile, "Second brother is fine, no matter how bad it is, both of us would be too worried , Restless at night!"

After tapping his nose, Long Bisheng rolled his eyes, "I don't know who you look like with this mouth, why is it that the bigger it gets, the less it looks like me and your elder brother?"

"Maybe it's a bit like Brother Ling." Sheng Yan replied deliberately, seeing that Long Bisheng's eyes froze slightly, he said, "Brother Ling knew you were sick, so he was very worried. I told him not to deliver the letter. He Instead, I delivered it three times a day, which made my servant almost be targeted by the housekeeper, Uncle Lin!"

Long Bisheng looked out and confirmed that Xiping, Dongping and Chunyi were not there, then he frowned and said, "Then...you haven't been found?"

"How can it be!" Sheng Yan smiled slyly, pulled out a stack of letter paper from his sleeve, and stuffed it into his hand, "Second brother, please save it and read it slowly, except for the one that greeted your condition, the others sealed with wax Don’t dare to peek!”

"You!" Reaching out and knocking on his forehead twice, Long Bisheng turned around to open the letter, while Sheng Yan changed to a stool and sat opposite the door, watching out for him.

Naturally, he couldn't guess what Fang Ling would write in the letter, but seeing Long Bisheng's ears turning red, Sheng Yan knew it.Long Bisheng seemed to read it again before putting away the letter paper, hesitated for a moment, and then threw it into the stove.

"Second brother?" Sheng Yan raised his hand and waved in front of his eyes, "What's the matter, were you still laughing just now?"

Sheng Yan found it strange that Long Bisheng was stunned as soon as he turned around.

"Oh, it's nothing. I have to write a reply to him, and I have to ask you to find a way to deliver it..." Long Bisheng immediately stood up and went to the desk to write.

Sheng Yan continued to help him out, and without much effort, Long Bisheng finished writing, dried the ink, folded the paper and stuffed it into Sheng Yan's hands, telling him in a low voice: "Be careful, I don't have a signature. , in case someone finds out, it’s fine if you don’t know anything.”

"Well, don't worry." Sheng Yan put the letter into his sleeve with a smile, and patted him on the shoulder like an adult.

Then, Long Bisheng asked about the Pisces jade pendant.

Hearing that he took the initiative to mention the jade pendant, Sheng Yan was both surprised and delighted. Since he couldn't wait to ask, maybe he really discovered the secret inside?

"Actually, this jade pendant was given to me by my third brother." Inevitably referring to the deceased Long Bixi, Sheng Yan's expression dimmed a bit, "There is also a line of words engraved on it, that is his order... But the second brother didn't pick it up, probably doesn't know what the jade pendant looks like."

Long Bisheng fiddled with the teacup in his hand, was silent for a while, and then asked: "Did Bixie ever tell you how he got this jade pendant?"

Regarding this, Sheng Yan really didn't fully understand it, but tentatively picked up half of the words, and replied: "It seems that I heard the third brother mention it once, saying that on the day of the fifth aunt's funeral, he went home when he felt unwell, and scattered on the way. After walking for a while, he picked it up in the grass by the roadside. He thought someone lost the jade pendant, and wanted to find the owner and return it to others, but at that time the weather was bad and it was about to rain, so he delayed... Later, he lost the jade pendant It was left in his own room, and it was delayed for a long time. When he remembered it, he sent someone to inquire about it, but it was like finding a needle in a haystack. Later, when I went to his room one day, I saw this jade pendant and loved it very much. He simply engraved it and gave it to me."

"Oh, so that's what happened." It seems that Bixi really didn't know that it was Fifth Aunt's jade pendant. Could it be God's will, a erroneous accident, a cycle of cause and effect?Long Bisheng rubbed his tangled eyebrows.

"Why did the second brother think of asking about this?" Sheng Yan caught the uneasiness in his eyes, and deliberately chased after him and asked, "Could it be that this jade pendant...is it found again?"

Long Bisheng was stunned, with a forced smile on his brows, and said, "No, I just thought of it and asked casually. If I really found it, I will let you know."

"Well, of course I can find it. After all, it was given to me by the third brother. Even if the original owner of this jade pendant is not the third brother, but the third brother has kept it very well. I vaguely remember that he once said that the jade pendant is very delicate. It's very similar to the craftsmanship of a certain famous jade master in the Northwest, maybe there is some clever mechanism!" Sheng Yan made three points of nonsense and five points of lies, and two points of truth, so he wanted to test Long Bisheng's reaction.

Sure enough, the teacup in Long Bisheng's hand turned over, and the tea poured onto the table.

"Second brother, isn't it hot?" Sheng Yan asked with concern. In fact, he had already seen that Long Bisheng's tea was cold.

"It's all right!" The tea didn't splash on the gown, so Long Bisheng didn't call Chunyi in. He just sat on the other side and said to Sheng Yan: "How can the jade pendant have such ingenuity? The northwest jade you mentioned Master, could it be..."

Sheng Yan recounted the words that the fat drunkard master had boasted to him, imitating the gourd.

Seeing Long Bisheng nodding his head silently, Sheng Yan said in his heart that the second brother must have heard of this famous jade craftsman as well.If he had the heart to investigate, he would definitely be able to find out something.

Long Bisheng didn't want to ask more questions, fearing that Sheng Yan would become suspicious, so he chatted about other things.But while Sheng Yan was talking, the topic turned to the maid who died not long ago, and asked him if he knew that the maid was Wu Yiniang's former personal servant, and Long Bisheng's noncommittal words made it go away.

Seeing his expression, Sheng Yan became more and more certain that this jade pendant was inextricably linked to Fifth Yiniang.

A little thought about the various interests is enough to startle people. The eldest lady, the fifth aunt, the third brother, and perhaps the second aunt seem to be involved.

Now, the second brother is also involved, I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

But the second brother has always had a clear personality of black and white, he can't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes, and he is not as smooth and sophisticated as the eldest brother, so outsiders always think he is arrogant, but in fact he is just a little more casual and straightforward.It wasn't once or twice that he contradicted the eldest lady and the elder master, but relying on his incense making skills to be second only to the elder brother, and the elder brother defended him everywhere, he was never punished.

But this time, if Da Furen really has something to do with Fifth Auntie's death, will Second Brother hold back?

After all, it was his own mother, even if the eldest lady made a big mistake, he would not necessarily expose it.

Sheng Yan thought secretly, seeing that the second brother was in such a difficult situation, he should let Su steal the jade pendant back.However, with his appearance like this, he obviously already knew a lot of things, and stealing the jade pendant would not relieve his heart disease.

After sitting for a while, he heard Xiping coming and telling Long Bifei that he had woken up and would come over in a while, so Sheng Yan got up to say goodbye, saying that he still had something to do and had to go back to Xiaoxiangtai.

Not a few steps away from the Chenxiang Pavilion, I happened to meet Xiao Xi who came out of the big kitchen.

I haven't seen her for a long time, but Xiao Xi has become more radiant, and she is a big girl who is about to get married.Sheng Yan heard from Xing'er that the second aunt found a steward in a relative's house of her natal family for her. She has good character and appearance, and her family is fairly well off. , Marrying in the past is a life of happiness.

Second Aunt also prepared some silver taels to give to Xiao Xi as a dowry. It seemed that she was not stingy with her confidants.

Xiao Xi greeted Sheng Yan with a smile, and said, "I haven't seen Ten Young Masters for a long time, how are you doing? Did Ten Young Masters come out of Chenxiang Pavilion?"

"Yeah, you are..." Sheng Yan smelled the smell of medicine on her body, "Could you be sick?"

"It's the smell from decocting the medicine, but it's not that the servant is sick, it's the master's old problem again." Xiao Xi replied with a smile.

Sheng Yan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Second aunt is sick? Hey, why don't you come to Lianxiangju to report?"

Xiao Xi bowed her head and said: "It's the master who doesn't let me, Xiao Xi can't make up her own mind... In fact, it's not a big problem. Speaking of it, the master hasn't suffered from this hay weed disease for many years. If it wasn't for this year's coincidence, a few wild plants would grow in the big garden. The mugwort, the master will not get sick."

"Second aunt also has hay fever?" Sheng Yan thought it was a coincidence, "Second elder brother also has hay hay disease...Have you seen it from a doctor?"

Xiao Xi suddenly paused, and then said: "That's not necessary, the old prescription made it." After finishing speaking, seeing that Sheng Yan had nothing to do to ask again, she hurriedly left.

Fortunately, he didn't suffer from blight, Sheng Yan sighed and went back to Lianxiangju.

After entering the room, I changed my clothes and wanted to lie on the bed for a while, but found a piece of wood under the pillow, with a few large characters engraved on it: "Follow me to the back mountain!" The agreed time was also written at the bottom.

Sheng Yan flattened his mouth, and on second thought it was not bad, and it would be good to take an afternoon nap under the big locust tree in the back mountain.

Immediately, the latch was dropped from the inside, and they jumped out of the window and went around to the dry well where they often met.Now he finally won't get lost, and he has walked hundreds of times.

As soon as he looked up, he saw Su sitting at the mouth of the well with a piece of dog's tail grass in his mouth. Seeing him approaching, he spat out the grass and jumped down with a smile.

"Sheng Yan, hurry up!" Pulling him, he wanted to jump down.

Sheng Yan grabbed his hand, motioned Su to hold her waist tightly, and asked, "What are you doing at the back mountain today, to watch you practice?"

"No... I've practiced for three hours today, and I'll show you something good, you'll definitely like it!" Feng Suyang hugged him and jumped down the well, and Youkong whispered in his ear: "If you don't like it, I'll pinch your ass~"

"Who is going to pinch your ass! Is it easier to pinch than Xiao Si?" Sheng Yan immediately replied, he is much more courageous now, to be honest, he was tossed by Feng Suyang's various methods of going down the well every time got used to.

As long as you don't tie him with a rope and throw him down, and then Su jumps down to catch himself, he won't be afraid anymore.

It's better for Su to hug himself.

After arriving at the back mountain, Feng Suyang picked up the wind from the soles of his feet and led him to the back of a big rock by the side of the mountain with lightness kung fu.Feng Suyang pulled Sheng Yan's finger, and let him look inside the crevice of the stone.

Sheng Yan craned his neck to look suspiciously, blinked his eyes, and instantly stretched the corners of his mouth into a smile, and slapped his thigh with a wave of his hand, "Ahhh, the little rabbit with gray fur and purple eyes is so cute! "

"Take it easy!" Feng Suyang covered his mouth and stepped back, leaning into his ear and said, "I just gave birth to a litter of cubs not long ago, don't disturb the mother rabbit to sleep."

"Oh, that's right!" Sheng Yan nodded quickly, broke off his hand, went back to look at it lying on the rock, opened his mouth wide with a smile, and his eyes followed the rolling, falling, rolling and falling of the little ones. The rabbit, moving up and down, is also really cute.

So, Sheng Yan stared at a nest of little rabbits.

Feng Suyang stared fiercely at Sheng Yan.

Sheng Yan liked it more and more, and wished he could hug one back immediately to be Xiao Si's companion, but Feng Suyang grabbed his nose and said with a smile: "It's still so young, would you know how to raise it? Wait until it grows up before hugging it." ah."

"Oh, that's right. Then you come and help me catch it. What if it runs away?" Sheng Yan raised his head and rubbed his nose against his face.

Feng Suyang touched his face, and smiled lightly, "You can catch it without me."

"No, I have to catch you!" Sheng Yan stared straight at him just like that.

Feng Suyang was stunned for a moment, and could only nod his head: "Yes, I'll catch you, the most beautiful one, really..."

The two looked at each other with smiles and looked at the little rabbit for a while, lying down under the locust tree and chatting for a while, Sheng Yan's head drooped, and he fell asleep leaning on Su's arm.

Feng Suyang fell asleep for a while, feeling unable to fall asleep, propped his chin with one hand, and looked at Sheng Yan's sleeping face.

He moved his arm to get closer, counted his fine eyelashes a few times, wanted to see more clearly, then moved closer... until his hair almost fell onto Sheng Yan's face.

Listening to Sheng Yan's long breathing, Feng Suyang felt his heart beating loudly, but this kind of feeling became more excited and dizzy as he got closer; this kind of feeling that his heart trembled inexplicably when he looked at a person The feeling...is really warm and beautiful.

Slowly leaning over, his lips only touched Shengyan's lips so lightly, Feng Suyang raised his head in a panic, and in an instant, his heart was chaotic and warm, soft and soft.

This feeling seems to be addictive, Feng Suyang couldn't help but leaned over again, and printed his lips on it.This time, he moved slowly and carefully, pecked lightly and crushed for a moment, lightly hooked the tip of his tongue, tasted the taste of Shengyan's upper and lower lips, then hurriedly raised his head, and jumped onto the tree.

It's over, it's over, I'm over... He fanned himself vigorously with his hands.

Sheng Yan was under the tree, completely red from head to toe, and secretly opened her eyes.
