Chapter 687: Family Letters Clothes Pressing Knife
Baiqionglou is still as usual, nothing unusual.
Yesterday, a young man who had not woken up from hangover slept until noon. He barely opened his eyelids, but he still saw the drizzle outside. He never saw the usual day. He had just gotten up and then lay down again and hugged him.
The other side was warm and warm, and the body was drowsy and fell asleep again.
The women in the building have long been used to these days, and few people get up early in the morning. It is not easy to pick up the business, let alone when it is raining, they should have to rest in bed, so the upper and lower buildings are separated from the servants.
The slight sound of the footsteps of the servants tangled with cotton is quiet like an empty building. Ordinary business is most busy during the day, but for example, here in Baiqiong Tower, it is the busiest time when the sky is about to come to night. Now the time is
It was still early, but it was deserted and no one came to visit.
Qiao Lan is the earliest woman in the building. She often gets up earlier than the servant. When the other women woke up slowly, they turned to sleepy eyes. Qiao Lan had already finished dressing up and poured tea on her own.
However, it is also called a joke by others, saying that he was born to be poor and hard, and he would definitely not be able to enjoy the blessing. If there is no rehabilitation in the early morning, would he have to learn from the old farmer outside the Xuanhua City outside Bafang Street, and get up early to eliminate insects.
.
Gossiping, although he was still young, Qiao Lan was already extremely tired of hearing it. In the end, she was not even able to even go out of the left ear and right ear. She never heard a word in her ear at all, and she still had an early morning every day
After getting up, after dressing up, he showed his own scrolls. This has always been like this. But when Qiao Lan woke up today, she was not busy dressing up. Instead, she picked up a plate of bright red grass juice under the table, and hesitated for a moment to take
I came up with a dull knife to stab the palm hard.
The earliest rule in the building was that there were a few women with extremely strong temperaments, probably not able to stand the service of the guest in the building all day long, and the other was that they were always ashamed and angry.
I took silver candles and cutters from the house. At midnight, I penetrated my throat. I heard the servants who had been here for a long time say that the houses that were always locked in the three floors are
The residence of those women who died of self-destruction, the candles were cut into their throats, and blood splashed all over the house, and even the heads on the window frames, there were still dry blood stains, and they would not be able to wipe them away. Since then, nothing has been found in Baiqiong Tower.
A sharp weapon, even candle clipper, is made of white porcelain, and trying to cut off oneself is nothing to talk about.
But there was clearly no sharp blade of the clothes pressing knife. After Qiao Lan stabbed her palm for more than ten times, there was really a bright red blood flowing down. She didn't care about anything else at the moment, trembling her palms and pouring blood into the plate of Tinglan grass
In the pulp, stir carefully, and then wrap the unused clothes around your palms casually, and the family letter exhibition will begin. I carefully dripped a few drops of bright red blood and Tinglan grass pulp on the letter, staring at the
A very thin piece of rice paper dizzy with a big blood color.
From beginning to end, Qiao Lan always held back the idea of opening her mouth and never mentioned her family letter. Even Ting Lan never knew about it. She borrowed medicinal materials to calm the mind and nourish her body, and asked the shopkeeper of the medicine shop to ask questions.
I want to get some tingling orchids, so that I can see the hidden words in my family letters clearly today.
When blood and bright red tingling slurry seeped into the letters of the home, Qiao Lan looked at the handwriting in the letters of the home. Somehow, she bit her lips and teeth tightly, and her expression was very depressed for a moment.
"If it was this letter from home, it would be great."
The woman muttered silently, drooped her eyelids and sighed heavily.
Without a cup of tea, the handwriting is fully displayed.
The handwriting is round and has no stagnation, the strokes are sharp and heavy, and the strokes are slender and long, with only a few numbers.
Qiao Lan picked up the letter and hesitated for a long time.
"I can trust that young man, and the people in Baiqiong Tower cannot trust him, and even the people in Bafang Street cannot trust him. But since he comes from outside, he should not lie for no reason. Besides, even if it is the situation set by the owner, I will find out you
The words of my two people are actually not harmful." Qiao Lan put the letter on the table, lowered her words, and spoke calmly, "The owner of Baiqionglou, I think I never want to care whether I am looking for this, as long as
It was enough that the person who was still in the building was still in the building and was comfortable serving the guest who spent a lot of money to the door. That was enough. Those people, based on your and my shallow thoughts, would probably have been calculated clearly."
However, Ting Lan has been slow to speak, hesitating and panic, and ends up hesitating and never speaking.
Qiao Lan walked to the window frame alone, lowered her head and raised the corners of her lips slightly, and laughed silently, but in her smile, she didn't know how much bitter it was.
"I talked to you about family background a few days ago, but I haven't finished it. As for the words in the letter, don't worry about it and settle down. Let me listen to me to explain my family background thoroughly, and then choose it."
"After my father's family fell ill, the people in Baiqionglou came to the door and planned to pay some money to buy me into Baiqionglou. At first my father did not agree, and even almost started a fight with the people who came.
But every day or two, I would have to return home with a bruised nose and a swollen face. The original business was suffocated for no reason and had no money to earn money for several days. I saw that my family was getting worse and harder to get up, so I had to rely on it myself.
He walked around the village with his legs, and finally came alone to the old shopkeeper in Niuyi Lane, Xuanhua City to ask for the shopkeeper to take the pulse."
"That shopkeeper Sun has refused for a long time, but in the end I couldn't help but my father begging, and he still followed my father to go home to take the pulse." The woman's words became more and more cold, and in the end she smiled gloomy, leaning alone by the window, looking outside the building
After a few breaths, he continued to say, "I saw some clues, not an emergency, but a scent of it, and even the shopkeeper Sun, who was extremely skilled in medicine, was helpless.
There are prescriptions that are said to be antidotes, but one of the main medicines is rare in the world, and it takes no less than thousands of taels of silver to get it."
"But in the end, my family has never been able to cure the strange poison. My father is the only one left. Since I sent me to Baiqiong Tower, I have never saved my wife's old age with money. After all, I have been addicted to the gambling house. After all, I have been addicted to the gambling house.
He lost all his money on his waist and was beaten up by a thug. He fell into the water. When the rest of the village saw him, his body was already soaked and swollen."
This time Ting Lan also fell silent, covering her face with both hands and her shoulders trembled slightly.
"You are better luck than me. You are innocent and ignorant of the world. You have never thought about the twists and turns in it, but I am different. I heard a few words when I went out a few days ago, and yesterday
When asked for Ting Lancao, the shopkeeper Sun brought me a word.”
"Shopkeeper Sun said that in fact, he could have been cured of the lesions, but it was really impossible to violate the situation. The person standing behind Baiqionglou was really unable to provoke him, so he had to abandon the doctor's thoughts and think that he would be guilty for life.
Only then did the body still have a tough time, I found a successor and taught all my skills. I was already tired of being in this city, just wanting to return to old age, live in seclusion in the mountains, and no longer mix with this world.
All kinds of things against your will. Although I know it was a forced one, I really wanted to ask, "You always stay down-to-earth and linger on your own."
"But what can you say? It's stronger than others, and you can't help yourself. You're already a person, so how can you blame others?"
Qiao Lan turned around, ignored the blood flowing out of her palm, looked at Ting Lan quietly, who was still full of sadness, and smiled softly, but in her smile, the bitterness and sorrow were all the meaning of grief.
When mixed together, it turned out to be a strange look that Ting Lan expected, and it probably could not be called a smile.
"Before the sun, you must think about it and remember that this matter should not be mentioned to anyone. The people in the building cannot believe it, and it is best not to listen to my words." Qiao Lan wiped away the tears that had quietly flowed from her face at some point.
, A face was very tight and said solemnly, "Since it is that Young Master Yun who intends to let you and me choose the way, then no matter how scattered I am, you need to calm down and think about it very much."
What kind of thoughts do you think? Although these women in the building are sometimes flirtatious and sometimes shameful, they are really not a bad choice in the Baiqiong Building."
"The world outside, I think there are more hardships than this Bafang Street. Maybe it will be so difficult that it is too late to eat, or it may have to suffer a lot. In the end, it will still be the same as most people in the world. If I really wait there, I will wait.
At the end of the season, you might find that Baiqiong Tower is not good, but not that bad.”
The woman wiped the tears on her cheeks and quickly changed her expression to her original appearance, as if she had never changed her color at all. She said softly, and said to Ting Lan, who was still crying in her eyes, "Remember to wipe the tears on her face.
Some things have to be endured. I have told you a long time ago that the world is often suffering and joy. After a while, most people have to face the suffering of the world, and they will swallow them into their stomachs.
It is a common sense in the world. Tinglan's sister is actually better than me. No matter what, there is a person at home who cannot meet each other often, but she is still lost and always misses her daughter's father. It is not necessary to take risks.
It may not necessarily be that I will escape from this cage.”
After saying that, Qiao Lan walked out of the house, leaving Ting Lan alone, wiped away the tears from her face, picked up the blood-stained letter on the table, and read it word by word.
After reading, the girl looked up in a panic and heard that there was still silence in the building. Only then did she dare to raise her sleeves and wipe away the tears that rushed out again, but no matter how she wiped it, she would wipe it out.
