Chapter 2 The mess
The master and his wife searched for elixirs for the young lady, but to no avail.
A genius who has had smooth sailing since childhood has never experienced any setbacks, but once he does, he experiences a huge setback. Let alone a 16-year-old girl, even a man over fifty may not be able to withstand such a blow.
Therefore, the young lady was in a depressed mood. She stayed behind closed doors all day long and remained silent. No matter what they said to comfort her, she would not listen. Sometimes she would lose her temper and throw things when she was poked in a painful spot.
No one dared to provoke her anymore, so they could only leave her alone in the room, hoping that she would think of it sooner.
She is still young and has many possibilities in life. Even if she really can no longer practice martial arts, the Jiang family's financial resources can still support her for the rest of her life.
However, since yesterday, the young lady's mood seems to have changed a bit. She doesn't look so gloomy anymore. She just stares into the void in a daze, not knowing what she is thinking.
Today is even better, she is actually willing to go out and relax!
If the master and his wife who are out on business know this news, they will be very happy!
only……
"Miss, didn't you go out to relax, why did you come back so soon?"
Hua Lan looked at Jiang Chu who came back with some doubts, because she didn't seem to have been out for long.
Also... isn't it a relaxing time? But why did the eldest lady come back with such a dark face?
It seems like I feel worse after going out for a while.
"Flower basket, go and ask a carpenter to come to my house and ask him to make something for me according to this pattern. Check the markings carefully. The dimensions must be absolutely correct. The sooner the better in terms of time." Jiang Chu did not answer the maid's question.
I just handed her the drawing I drew today, and spoke in a calm voice with an expressionless face, as gloomy as usual this month, "Remember, it can only be made of willow wood."
Hua Lan was stunned and corrected in a low voice: "Miss, this slave is Hua Lan, not Hua Laner..."
"Nice flower basket."
Hua Lan:……
She pursed her lips and did not correct her.
The eldest lady seems to be in a bad mood, so don't argue with her about such a trivial matter.
However, Hua Lan was a little confused, because the name Hua Lan was given to her by the eldest young master. The second young master often called him Hua Laner in a bad way, and every time the eldest daughter would angrily scold and correct him.
Why did the eldest lady call her Hua Lan'er today?
But I am the eldest lady, so as long as she is happy, I can do whatever I want.
Hua Lan thought of this and said nothing, but when she lowered her head and looked at the pattern she was holding, she was a little confused.
What is the thing painted on this...
"Miss, what do you want to do?" she asked puzzledly.
Faced with this unanswerable question, Jiang Chu looked up at the sky and sighed melancholy.
He looked like he was going to cry in the next second.
Hua Lan's scalp suddenly went numb. She had heard and seen the eldest lady break down, cry and throw things several times. She was afraid of provoking her emotions again, so she didn't dare to ask anymore. She turned around and went to find the carpenter with the paper.
After Hua Lan left, Jiang Chu sat down in front of the dressing table.
The woman in the mirror has a small face, black hair like a waterfall, and fair skin.
If it weren't for the unsightly old sword scar on her left cheekbone, she would have been a delicate beauty.
The eldest lady of the Jiang family, Jiang Chu, who has the same name as herself...
No one knew that in the early hours of yesterday, she had taken medicine and committed suicide.
This young girl finally failed to overcome this hurdle and could not accept the huge gap from genius to waste. When her last attempt to mobilize the power of Dantian failed, she chose to die to escape all this.
In her opinion, she was originally a disfigured woman. If she had extraordinary martial arts talent, people would look up to her. But now that this advantage is gone, she has no reason to live.
.
For a young child, the ridicule, sympathy and comments in the world are a weapon of death. She finally did not dare to go out of the house to face all that, so she fixed her youth to yesterday.
But now, Xin Jiangchu has taken over this mess.
She was caught off guard and got a new identity. Jiang Chu spent a day yesterday accepting this reality. Fortunately, she still retained the memory of the original owner, so she was not completely confused.
Yesterday, she was in a daze for almost the whole day, not even eating, and her strange behavior was obvious. But fortunately, the original Jiang Chu had been very strange this month, so even the maid she was most familiar with did not notice anything unusual about her -
—
After experiencing major setbacks, a person's temperament will change. At this time, who would care about a small change?
Jiang Chu looked at the closed door and then took out the red bellyband.
This bellyband is not new, there is a little hair on the edges where it has been washed, and...
Jiang Chu took a closer look and found that it was not the size of a hair-length girl, but more like the size of a half-grown child.
She couldn't help but think of a distant plea that came to her mind when she picked it up on the street——
Aunt Hao from Shuyang City is in deep pain because her little daughter disappeared on the street.
The girl is missing, the size is not like that of an adult woman...
This thing was so strange that Jiang Chu had never heard of it in half his life.
How did the bellyband fall from the sky, why no one else could see it but she could see it, what was the green light, and what happened to the memory and plea that was inexplicably transmitted to the mind?
Although he didn't see the person in person, the sadness and pain of the other person was clearly conveyed to him, making Jiang Chu's heart feel a little aching.
It seemed that it was not Aunt Hao who lost her daughter, but herself.
But unfortunately, Jiang Chu in his previous life had no children at all, and he never even got married!
Is this true or false?
Shuyang City does exist, not far from Yuxiao City, so does Aunt Hao and the situation she is facing really happen?
Jiang Chu thought for a while, then folded his bellyband and put it on his body, got up and walked towards the backyard.
She had to see how the things she wanted were done.
"Miss, I made this wooden sign first. Do you think you are right?"
Carpenter Liu was working. When he saw Jiang Chu coming over, he handed her a semi-finished product that he had made according to her request, and then looked at her quietly.
He was not a servant of the Jiang Mansion, but he had come to work in the Jiang Mansion before, and he had met the eldest daughter of the Jiang family a few times at that time. In his memory, she was always in high spirits, with her back always straight and her chin slightly raised, although she could not speak to the servants.
Although she is bossy, she also has her own arrogance, which fits the image of a genius girl.
It's normal for a genius to be a little arrogant.
Carpenter Liu had not been to the Jiang Mansion in the month after the eldest daughter's accident, but he heard rumors that the eldest daughter Jiang was so irritated that she became depressed and stayed in her room all day long. Her temper became even more irritable and she became much more gloomy and mean.
