Chapter 225 I Remember Everything
At half past three the next day, Ye Wenyan woke up and felt his head swollen, his limbs weak, his whole body cold, and a terrible headache.
I tried to get up and drink some water, but after trying for a while, I fell back onto the couch.
She was helpless. She had this problem of losing all her spiritual power on the 15th of every month. She had it from her previous life to this life. God really didn't let her off. In her previous life, she had her family to protect her. In this life, she finally had a master, Li Yuan. But he was sitting in the spirit gathering formation and couldn't get out. She had to endure this day by herself again. She didn't know how she could endure it.
I hope no one causes trouble at home today, so she can lie down peacefully all day without getting up.
Unfortunately, it was impossible for nothing to happen. Just after the Mao hour, Nanny Ji came in and asked her if she wanted to get up. She said that today was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and she was afraid that there would be some arrangements at the mansion. Instead of waiting for the old lady and the second room to come and ask her, it would be better for us to prepare early and see what tricks they can come up with.
She knew that Nanny Ji was talking about the incident on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. It seemed that everyone was frightened by that incident.
But she was really uncomfortable and didn't want to get up, so she just told the truth: "Mammy, I don't feel well today. I just want to lie on the couch and don't want to go anywhere. So no matter what's going on at home today, please help me go back!"
She said this weakly and Nanny Ji was startled at the time. Zhuier happened to bring in a basin of water. She became anxious when she heard this. She didn't even have time to put down the basin and came over, saying with a worried look on her face: "Is the young lady in conflict with the fifteenth? She fell ill on the fifteenth last month, and it happened again this month. We must be more careful when we encounter this day in the future, and burn more incense in advance, and pray that the young lady is in good health." She put down the basin of water and came over to wipe Ye Wenyan's forehead, but her hand was cold.
Madam Ji said, "Young lady's body is always cooler than ours, and we can't tell if she has a fever. How about asking a doctor to take a look?" Ye Wenyan closed his eyes and shook his head slightly, "No, I know my own body condition well. I just need to lie down for a day and I'll be fine tomorrow. You guys go do what you need to do, and remember to tell my mother not to worry about me. I'll go to pay my respects to her tomorrow."
As they were talking, Mu had already brought Ye Qingmei in. When they heard that Ye Wenyan was ill, the mother and daughter immediately ran over to see him.
Ye Qingmei also thought of what happened on the fifteenth of last month. She was extremely worried and kept saying, "Yan'er, remember, don't go anywhere today. Just lie on the couch and don't leave this room even if the sky falls. Last month they took advantage of your illness to kill you. If they dare to do it again today, I will go to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife and fight them to the death!"
Ye Wenyan opened his eyes and looked at Ye Qingmei, who was shivering with anger, and his heart felt so warm.
She went to hold Ye Qingmei's hand and said slowly, "I only knew that big sister loved me before, but I didn't expect that you could love me so much and be willing to risk your life for me. Don't worry, we are at home now. As long as I don't go out, who can do anything to me?" "That's not necessarily true." Ye Qingmei glanced at Mu, hesitated a little, but stood up immediately, "Mother, please accompany Yan'er. I suddenly remembered that I promised Lianmian yesterday to give her a piece of clothing. I will go get it and send it to her, and then accompany her to talk."
Ye Qingmei left after she finished speaking. Madam Mu sighed and said to her, "Your elder sister is afraid that Lian Mian will come to cause trouble for you again, so she is going to look after her. Don't worry, Yan'er, even if Qingmei doesn't go, I will still go to look after her."
Ye Wenyan nodded, "Thank you for your concern, mother. Mother, today is the fifteenth day of the month, and there must be a lot of things to do at home. You can go and take care of them. I want to sleep a little longer."
Madam Mu said, "I don't have anything to do. I'm no longer the mistress. It's not my turn to take care of anything in this mansion. I'm really free. I'll stay and accompany you. Just go to sleep and don't worry about me."
She sighed when she heard this, "What is mother afraid of?"
Mu was startled, a little flustered, "No, I'm not afraid of anything." "Mother is afraid that I will become estranged from you because of what happened that day." She half-crouched on the couch, eyes half open and half closed, listless. But this posture is the most comfortable, plus it's early morning now, not the weakest time yet, so it's okay to talk for a while.
Mu hesitated for a while, and finally nodded and said "hmm" softly.
Ye Wenyan laughed when she heard this, "No, mother, you are overthinking. I really just feel uncomfortable and want to sleep a little longer. I didn't mean to send you away. If you have nothing to do, just sit here. It's always good for children to have their mother by their side when they are sick."
Madam Mu sniffed and shook her head, "In fact, I won't be able to sit here for long. Although I'm not the mistress anymore, the less I am the mistress, the more rules there are. Now the second house is in charge, and the old lady just said a few days ago that we should get back the old rules, at least the daily morning and evening visits must be done. Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar year, and there are so many eyes watching me. If I don't go, I'm sure I'll be criticized. There will be all kinds of unpleasant things said, for example, I'm relying on being the mistress of the first house and looking down on everyone to bully the second house. That's still good, but don't say that our first house family is ignorant and doesn't follow the house rules. I don't mind, but you kids' reputations are still important! So I still have to go."
She stood up as she spoke, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "I don't know what arrangements my family will have today. In previous years, there would be a family banquet on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to arrange this year. There's so much to do outside, and it's hard to buy things."
Although Ye Wenyan didn't open her eyes, she could hear what Mu meant, which made her feel helpless.
I wanted to have a good sleep, but it seems that Mu can't leave peacefully without some talk.
So she said, "Mother, my brain is not damaged. I remember everything that happened in the past. I remember how we celebrated the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year."
"You actually remember it?" Mu didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a moment, "You really remember everything?"
Zhuier was puzzled when she heard this, "Madam, even I remember these things, how could Miss not remember them?" Mu didn't respond, but Ye Wenyan remembered that there were so many servants standing in the room, so she opened her eyes and looked at Madam Ji, and said, "Take them all out, I want to talk to mother."
Nanny Ji nodded and took Zhuier and Dannuo out.
After hearing the door closed, Ye Wenyan continued, "Of course I remember everything. I not only remember what we did at home on the 15th day of the first lunar month, but I also remember that my father liked to eat fish and didn't like duck. My mother liked military uniforms and didn't like rouge. When my eldest brother was young, he actually liked to play with swords and guns, but my father wouldn't let him. He forced him to take the imperial examination. He passed the provincial examination at the age of twelve and the metropolitan examination at the age of fifteen. But after passing the metropolitan examination, he was not allowed to take the palace examination. He wasted a good quota in vain, and delayed my eldest brother's good learning."
Mu was very excited. She wiped her tears and hoped that she would continue speaking.
She continued, "My eldest sister was obedient and listened to everyone, even my second sister. So she was bullied the most and had the most things stolen from her. When I was a kid, I was so angry that I always quarreled with my second sister because of this. I thought I was standing up for my eldest sister, but in fact, it made my second sister hate me, and my eldest sister didn't get much real benefit."
She was a little tired after talking for a while, took a few breaths, and then continued: "Second sister has been closest to grandma since she was a child. Whenever she meets someone from our first house, she will make a scene. It's a small scene at ordinary times, and a big scene during festivals. In order to calm things down, mother always gives her her good things. As a result, there is not much left of the dowry brought from the Mu family that year, and even a lot of land deeds have been lost. Unfortunately, those things finally went into the pocket of the old lady, and the second sister herself got nothing. Oh, right, speaking of this, I just remembered that the old lady still lacks a shop from us. She secretly hid it when she returned the things before. Don't worry, mother, after the reconstruction after the disaster is completed, your daughter will definitely find a way to get the shop back, and will never let the old lady get it for free. But mother, you have to hide it yourself, and you can't give it to the second sister again."
Mu covered her face with her hands and sobbed, "So you remember everything. I thought you didn't know what happened in the past. I, I always wanted to tell you, tell you about this family, and tell you about these relatives." She shook her head slightly, "No need to tell you, that's what I experienced, why should I tell you? Mother, I am always your daughter, no different from before. So please rest assured, mother, since I call you mother, you will always be my mother."
Ye Wenyan couldn't say any more and fell into a deep sleep.
But she didn't sleep for long, as she heard someone coming. She wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids were heavy. She only felt that the person who came put something next to her pillow, touched her forehead, and spoke to Madam Ji before leaving.
The door closed again and Nanny Ji went out. Only then did she fall asleep completely.
At the other end of the east courtyard, all the family members gathered in the old lady's room, bowed and greeted each one, and then the servants served them tea and talked with the old lady.
The family seemed to be having a good time, but if you look closely, it was only the people from the second house who were talking. Ye Lianmian was the only one talking from the first house, while Mu and Ye Qingmei said nothing. The second house was led by Xiao. Xichun had recovered from his injuries and was gradually regaining his spirits, so he followed Xiao's lead.
Liu was a man of few words, but she would occasionally say a few words, and Ye Chulian would nod and shake her head, occasionally pretending to smile. But she was always able to keep her face, and the old lady was always smiling.
Xiao has changed a lot now compared to before. Not only does she hold herself up to her duty as a mistress, she is also friendly and friendly to the two concubines, Liu and Xichun, talking and laughing with them. She even looked at the silver hairpin on Xichun's head and said, "Since I followed the master, I have not enjoyed a single day of happiness, but have suffered a lot. Now the mourning period is only a hundred days, there is nothing we can do, but it will be over soon. In another month or so, we don't have to wear plain clothes anymore, and we can wear flowers on our heads. When the time comes, I will definitely ask someone to make you a few sets of headgear as a wedding gift to welcome you home. Sister, please be patient, and your life will be better in the future."
Xichun was really happy. No matter whether it was because of the old lady's persuasion that the second lady changed her mind, she was better than before, and that was something to be happy about. She stood up and bowed to Xiao seriously, thanking her sincerely.
Xiao smiled and helped her sit down. Then she looked at Liu and said with the same smile: "They are all my sisters. Since we have Sister Chun, we can't leave out Sister Liu. Everyone should have a share of head ornaments and jewelry."
Liu also thanked him, but she was not as happy as Xichun.
Seeing that Xiao Shi could do this, the old lady nodded with satisfaction and praised her: "Very good, you are becoming more and more like the mistress of the house. Remember, our First-rank General's Mansion is a noble family. Although it is not as good as the prince's mansion or the princess's mansion, it is not inferior to the first-rank prime ministers of the current dynasty. So you have to be polite and don't always be petty and embarrass the General's Mansion."
Xiao bowed to the old lady and said, "I will remember your mother's teachings, but there is one thing I need to discuss with you..."
