10. Survival in a desperate situation

Desperate situation to grow

up and recall each other: After the rebirth of the eldest princess, she was engaged in business

(previous life)

. In the palace of the Chen Dynasty, there was a shabby courtyard named Ye Youting. All the prisoners in the courtyard were sinners, and what the sinners did was naturally the hardest and most tiring work. Chen Yan, the nine princes who

had been exiled to the north, single-handedly planned the palace rebellion and had already ascended the throne. Emperors, empresses, princes, and imperial concubines all died at Chen Yan’s hands. The eunuchs and palace maids who had served the royal family were all given death; The rest of those, Chen Yan also did not stay, are assigned to do coolies everywhere, and the most bitter place, of course, is the secluded courtyard.

Sheng Yunlin has taken Chen Yu to hide in the secluded courtyard for two months.

I don’t know if it’s good luck-all the people who have seen them are dead, but now these people in the court are inferior servants who can’t get close to them at ordinary times, so no one in the huge court knows their brother and sister, so they can survive. Too much hard labor has been sent

these days, and no one has registered it, and human life is like dirt. If you don’t work hard, you will be whipped and beaten. If the wound festers and you can’t endure it, you will soon be carried away and thrown out of the palace to die.

Sheng Yunlin made himself unkempt every day to cover up his appearance. She is not delicate, she is active in her work, and she hardly talks to anyone else at ordinary times, so she has not been punished.

She named herself and Chen Yu as Yunzhi and Sixi respectively, saying that she was originally a maid in the Empress Dowager’s Palace. Chen Yu was her younger brother after she entered the palace. She had just been assigned to the Empress Dowager’s Palace and could not do anything, but she could work with her. The Mammy in the secluded courtyard had no time to take care of the two of them, so she went with Sheng Yunlin. The rooms in

the secluded courtyard were all rows of bunks, with twelve people in each row. Men and women naturally want to sleep separately, and Chen Yu naturally does not want to, he is afraid not to do, more afraid is to separate with Sheng Yunlin. But after a month of hard labor, he didn’t even have the strength to think about it, and every day he fell down as soon as he got back to the house.

Sheng Yunlin is also thin and out of shape.

Chen Yu asked her many times, “Sister, what are we going to do next?”

Chen Yu is really dependent on her. As long as Sheng Yunlin said anything, he did it, although he could not endure it at all, but at most he just sobbed in a low voice. They hid in the cellar of Shoukang Palace for ten days. Sheng Yunlin didn’t say that he could go out, but he endured it. When he arrived at Yeyouting, Sheng Yunlin told him that he had to work hard, so he tried his best to do things that he had never done before, even if he was clumsy.

This time, Sheng Yunlin said, “Endure and live.”. As long as the green hills are there, there is no fear of a lack of firewood.

Young Chen Yu bit his lower lip tightly: “I..” Sister. I think I’m going to die. Every day I get up, open my eyes and work until I close my eyes.

Physical and mental double torture, Sheng Yunlin himself can not endure, let alone Chen Yu, who is only nine years old.

Sheng Yun-lin gritted his teeth and said, “Be a good boy. Hold on for a few more days. I’m sure Sister will find a way.”

But in fact, she didn’t know what to do.

She did not have the courage to commit suicide, but she did not know where the road ahead was. Do you want to live like this in the secluded courtyard all the time? Every day is repetitive work, there is no hope to speak of, she and Chen Yu will be driven mad sooner or later.

After a few days, the new emperor seemed to finally remember to clean up the mess of the palace, and then the eunuch in charge came to Ye Youting and cleaned up the place. The servants of

Ye Youting were divided into several groups, and each group was managed by different eunuchs and nuns, who did different things. Sheng Yunlin smartly took the last jade ornament on her body, the jade bracelet she wore when she got married, to bribe the eunuchs in the group, and finally assigned herself and Chen Yu to the group of washing clothes. The Huanyi Bureau in the

palace washes clothes for the nobles, while the Huanyi Group in the secluded courtyard washes clothes for the palace maids and eunuchs. But washing clothes is already the most “comfortable” job compared to carrying dung water, washing dung buckets, and scrubbing floor tiles.

But it was not until she came here that she found out that almost all of them had been assigned by bribing the eunuch in charge. Although the bracelets sent by

Sheng Yunlin looked valuable, she had no personal relationship with the eunuch in charge after all, and the rest of them had already been divided and divided. Originally chaotic and disorderly Yeyouting, it has become a clear status. After being

divided into groups, the people in the same group moved into the same room. And Sheng Yunlin’s room, the highest status, is a woman named Qiushui.

Qiushui is seventeen or eighteen years old, and he is the best at dressing up in this group. I don’t know how she got the makeup when she lived in a place like Ye Youting, but even if the makeup was inferior, she worked from dawn to dusk all day and painted her eyebrows. But her most powerful is that pair of eyes, eyes like autumn water, charming and affectionate, can be greasy to the human bone. Wang Jin, the eunuch of

Guan Huanyi Group, liked her very much. Every time Qiushui looked back at Wang Jin and winked at him, Wang Jin’s whole body would be crisp.

Sheng Yunlin never cares about this. It’s no use for her to curry favor with Wang Jin, not to mention that “no contact with strangers” is her self-protection creed. She can never trust anyone, never reveal her identity to others, or even talk to others, because she never knows what information others can get from her words. One

day, she caught a glimpse of her face in the bronze mirror of Qiushui, and suddenly found that her expression and manner were completely different from those of the past.

She used to love to laugh, and although she was a little spoiled, she had a good temper and could always laugh and mingle with the children of the aristocratic families in the upper study. Only then did she realize that she had not laughed for a long time.

Occasionally leisure, she and Chen Yu stay together, looking for some ingredients to make a meal for Chen Yu. She could not cook-whether as the princess of the palace or later as Princess Changyi, she had no need to cook-so she failed many times and dared not ask others for experience.

Chen Yu does not pick, can only say delicious. Even if Sheng Yunlin tasted it, he felt it tasted terrible.

But with the passage of time, she really slowly made it delicious, even the simplest ingredients, with a little salt, she can also make it refreshing and delicious.

Instead, it made her panic-she seemed to have really adapted to life here, to become a slave of the lowest class, but once she thought that she would live here like this for a lifetime, she felt great fear.

No, that’s not true! She desperately wanted to escape with Chen Yu, not to live in the secluded courtyard!

That night, Sheng Yunlin slipped out of Yeyouting.

She was very familiar with the terrain of the palace and could easily avoid the crowded roads. And her destination was the upper study, which had long been abandoned.

She heard others mention that Chen Yan had no wife and no children, and had no plans for a talent show since he ascended the throne, which was very strange. Because he killed his brother and usurped the throne, and his character was uncertain, he was afraid of it in the court, and no one dared to mention the draft.

Sheng Yunlin did not know why Chen Yan did not marry and have children, but she knew very well that there was no more orthodox heir than Chen Yu!

Chen Yan’s throne is not right, and there is no heir, then as long as Chen Yan died, no one can deny the identity of Chen Yu!

She seemed to grasp at straws, no matter how absurd and difficult the idea was, she still had a lot of courage to live.

Sheng Yunlin can not do much, but at least there is one thing she can do. The upper study has been abandoned for a long time, and no one reads it any more, but the classics, history and literature are still in it. She carefully selected the books from inside, secretly brought back to Ye Youting, let Chen Yu start reading again. Afraid of being discovered, she only dared to take one copy at a time. Although

Chen Yu Kai Meng early, but after all, is not the kind of talent and talent of Jaffe, in the absence of the guidance of the teacher, simply do not understand the content. Sheng Yunlin had to read it first, then went to the study to turn over the annotations, and then explained it to Chen Yu bit by bit. Raccoon clothes

during the day, lectures at night, but also to thoroughly understand the content. Sheng Yunlin did not get enough sleep every day, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, and he could fall asleep while washing clothes. “You can’t do that, sister,” said

Chen Yu. “You have to sleep.”

Sheng Yunlin: I’m all right. You don’t have to worry about me. How are you doing with the book I asked you to recite today?

Chen Yu is anxious: “Do not recite!”! Sister, if you don’t have a good rest, I won’t recite it!

Sheng Yun-lin frowned. “Are you threatening me with this?” “I don’t care,” said

Chen Yu stubbornly! I won’t recite it!

Suddenly there was a surge of impatient anger in Sheng Yunlin’s heart.

Thinking of all the things that had happened over the past year, she did not feel aggrieved, but angry. Her knuckles were clenched into fists and pinched into the flesh. Those days of hard work, sleepless nights, every minute and every second of fear, all came to mind at this moment.

“Say it again.” There was something dangerous in her voice.

“No more reciting!” Chen Yu shouted.

“Pow!” When

Sheng Yunlin’s slap was thrown down, Chen Yu’s eyes were frightened, with a look of disbelief, and only a few seconds later, big tears crossed his red and swollen cheeks.

Sheng Yunlin looked at him indifferently.

She used ten percent of her strength, and her palms were burning.

She woke herself up.

She suddenly realized that she had really just grasped a vague and useless life-saving straw, and that it was useless for her to press Chen Yu to study again, which only increased her worries. They can’t get out. They can only stay here all their lives until the end of death.

“Then don’t read it.” Sheng Yunlin said. Then

she turned and left without looking back.

“Sister!” Chen Yu cried out her name.

That afternoon, Chen Yu squatted by the pool and washed his clothes, muttering in his mouth. He wanted to memorize the chapter quickly. He thought that if he could recite it, the elder sister would. You might be willing to talk to him.

His elder sister was not far away, but her eyes were empty and indifferent, and she did not look at him.

No matter how he shouted, how he cried, how he pulled her hand, she ignored him.

It was the first time in a year that he had cried loudly. On the day of the palace change, when he was hiding in Shoukang Palace, he was never so desperate as he is now.

At least he was not alone at that time, with his elder sister holding him tightly.

And now, the elder sister doesn’t even look at him.

Chen Yu has nothing else to do, except to quickly recite this chapter. Faster, faster. He wants to talk to his sister.

He didn’t even notice that a passing man stopped behind him.

isn’t this Sixi? What are you whispering about? Qiushui’s sharp and charming voice sounded, “Listen to the literary..” God, you’re not reciting, are you?! In fact,

she had been listening for a long time, but she deliberately shouted in a pompous tone, which attracted everyone’s attention.

“Look at you, you little bastard! You know how to write! Ha ha!”

“I’m not a bastard!” Chen Yu roared.

“How can you not be a bastard?” Qiushui’s tone is acerbic. “A little bastard with no father and no mother, how can he still want to be a scholar?!”. Between

two or three sentences, Sheng Yunlin had already rushed over.

Sheng Yun-lin stood in front of Chen Yu and said, “Qiushui, my brother is just a child. He doesn’t know anything.”

“I almost forgot. He still has you, ‘Gan, Jie, Jie.'” “There are many people in the palace who recognize their godfather and godmother, but there are few who recognize their godsister–why do you still expect to raise him as a lover?”

Chen Yu’s eyes widened for a moment. Disgusted,

Sheng Yun-lin blurted out: “Full of foul language!”

Qiushui couldn’t even understand the idiom, but when he saw Sheng Yunlin’s disgusted expression, he realized that he was scolding her. Qiushuideng became angry and said angrily, “What are you pretending to be?”? I think you want to die!

With that, she picked up a bucket of water next to her clothes and splashed it in Sheng Yunlin’s face.

Sheng Yunlin could not dodge and was doused from head to toe. She had deliberately made herself dusty every day, and now the dirt on her hair and face had been washed away, making her look even uglier. But she raised her hand to wipe it, and her white skin was exposed. What’s

the matter? What’s wrong?! When the eunuch in charge, Wang Chin, heard what was happening, he frowned and walked over with great displeasure. “If you don’t work hard, you won’t be beaten!”

As soon as he saw the king come in, Qiushui immediately stuck to it and began to complain first.

“Yunzhi scolds me!” She changed her face in almost a second, with an aggrieved look, and simply reversed black and white. “I found that Sixi didn’t work hard, and I didn’t know what he was reading, so I reminded him a few words, but Yunzhi actually jumped out and scolded me for something!”! She did it on purpose! She just wants to show that she has read books and is particularly different!

Sheng Yunlin’s hair is still dripping. She moved her lips and wanted to argue, but she didn’t say anything, leaving only a face without any expression, facing Qiushui and Wang Jin.

As Qiushui spoke, he began to cry and insisted that Wang Jin make decisions for him. As soon as

Wang Chin saw her in tears, he immediately began to coax her: “Oh, don’t cry!”! Whatever you want, our family will depend on you.

The eunuch always spoke with his voice hanging, which made Sheng Yunlin’s scalp tingle.

But Qiushui raised the corners of her mouth and snorted, “I’ll give her forty lashes.”

Wang Jin didn’t hesitate for a moment. He immediately pulled out the whip from his waist and said to Sheng Yunlin, “I haven’t washed my clothes clean, my mouth is still broken, and I’m still confessing my relatives under our eyes!”! We must teach you a long lesson today, you bitch!

“Don’t hit my sister!” Little Chen Yu rushed up, his eyes were constantly magnified by panic and death-like courage, so that Sheng Yunlin’s whole son was a Rin.

Fortunately, she moved fast enough to catch Chen Yu and turn around to protect him in her arms, with her back to Wang Jin’s whip.

The whip drove straight down, and the skin and flesh were torn.

She bit her lip so hard that it bled.

“Sister!”! Sister! Chen Yu cried loudly, tearing his heart and lungs. He tried to break free from Sheng Yunlin’s arms, but was pressed to death, only to hear the sound of whipping down again and again, and Sheng Yunlin’s muffled hum of pain.

Forty strokes. Not

a tear fell from her eyes, not a sound came from her.

Eventually, she fell down with Chen Yu in her arms, with blood all over her body.

“She knows how to turn her back and protect her face.” Qiushui spat, “Ugly people make a lot of trouble!” “Lock her up in the woodshed,” said

Wang Chin, “and face the wall and think!” “Are you satisfied now?” He asked

, coaxing Qiushui. In order to coax Qiushui,

Wang Jin simply let Sheng Yunlin run his own course in the woodshed.

Sheng Yunlin was so badly hurt that his lips were so pale that he could not say a word. Chen Yu is usually well protected by Sheng Yunlin, at this moment he suddenly found that he can not do anything except crying, nor can he do anything. The food delivered

from outside is all hard steamed bun, and the patient can’t eat it at all. Fortunately, there was a small cooking stove that Sheng Yunlin usually used to cook for him, as well as a little rice left over, and Chen Yu clumsily added water to cook porridge. With too much water, it’s more like rice soup.

He brought the rice soup over, cooled it and fed it to Sheng Yunlin. Sheng Yunlin couldn’t eat it at all. His face was sickly flushed and his body was trembling.

Cold.. Cold.. Sheng Yunlin groaned unconsciously.

Her forehead was already burning.

Chen Yu was so flustered that his hands began to tremble. He just fed the rice soup to Sheng Yunlin, even though Sheng Yunlin choked several times in the middle. But if she did not finish drinking, she would have no physical strength, and it would be even more difficult for her to get through the long night. After feeding the

rice soup, he dragged his bedding to the woodshed. Because of what happened during the day, everyone was afraid of offending Wang Jin, so they were far away from him and Sheng Yunlin, but no one stopped him. He wrapped Sheng Yunlin in a quilt and went in himself, holding Sheng Yunlin to keep warm.

“Sister, the cold will soon stop.” Chen Yu sobbed, “Don’t, don’t leave me..”

He thought that if Sheng Yunlin died, he would not be able to live.

……

Sheng Yunlin almost didn’t get through it.

Fortunately, her constitution is not delicate, although the gate of death once, but by dawn, the fever finally subsided.

She felt like she was burning up. She had a long dream in which sixteen years of her life flew by like a merry-go-round. In

those carefree years when she was a child in Yunnan Wangfu, she had a gentle mother and a strong father. Her mother taught her to read and her father taught her to use a sword.

Later, the picture flashed, her parents were gone, and she was taken into the palace. The empress told her that from then on, she would be the most noble princess of the Chen Dynasty, and her uncle and aunt would love her very much.

Gradually, she stepped out of the haze of losing her parents and really began to integrate into the life of the court. The emperors and empresses favored her, and the princes and her were like brothers and sisters, and the prince clung to her elder sister from an early age. They laughed and played in the palace, and the days passed day by day, as if there was no end to time.

……

The dream was so sweet, like honey, that she indulged in it and did not even want to wake up. In the last part of the

dream, a handsome figure appeared, with one hand behind his back, tall and straight as a pine, and cold as the moon.

From the beginning to the end, there is only one figure.

…… Who is it?

Sheng Yunlin can’t remember. In

this dream, only her close relatives were supposed to be right, but she didn’t know who the person who broke into it was.

She wanted to see his face, but she chased him for a long time, but she still couldn’t see him.

…… I

woke up.

When Sheng Yunlin opened his eyes, the sun was rising slowly and the sky was becoming bright.

Chen Yu lay beside her, breathing evenly.

Sheng Yunlin wanted to sit up, but as long as he moved a little, the pain was unbearable. She was afraid that she would wake up Chen Yu with too much noise, so she kept lying in this position.

Chen Yu was beside her and suddenly twitched.

“Don’t..” He said in his sleep, “Sister, don’t leave me..”

Sheng Yunlin was stunned.

Then, the heart softened down.

She smiled gently and touched Chen Yu’s hair, but the sour tears flowed down with the smile.

“Fool.” “I will never leave you,” Sheng Yunlin whispered.

They only have each other. She thought.

She wants to live. For Chen Yu, but also for herself. Since she didn’t die last night, it proves that she didn’t deserve to die.

She had never been so determined-not to run for her life, not to live, she wanted to live well, even if the situation was difficult, she wanted to live well. Then sooner or later, she will return to the eyes of the world!

Sheng Yunlin has been recovering in the woodshed for many days. The scab of the wound faded again, leaving a scar, and just touching it with her hand, she felt so terrible that she could not help trembling. One afternoon

a few days later, Chen Yu was still doing hard work outside, leaving Sheng Yunlin alone in the woodshed, and Qiushui actually brought someone to the door. Seeing

Sheng Yunlin’s haggard appearance, Qiu Shui’s eyes were disgusted, and his tone was also acerbic: “You are really lucky, and you are not dead.”

Qiushui was followed by two submissive girls, both servants who lived in the same room, at least they had a good relationship with Sheng Yunlin in the past. At this time, both of them lowered their heads and dared not look directly at Sheng Yunlin. One of them was still carrying a basin of water.

When Sheng Yunlin saw the basin of water, his eyes were calm. Are you going to be splashed

again?

Forget it, it’s not the first time. It didn’t matter to

her. Anyway, the wound was so good that she was not afraid of suppuration. Anyway, she won’t die.

If you can’t die, it’s not a big deal. “Go and wash her face for me,

” Qiushui ordered.

「……!」 Sheng Yunlin was startled. “I felt something was wrong that day,

” Qiushui sneered. Splashed water on your face, you wipe it with your sleeve, how can it be as white as a ghost? Now I want to see what your face looks like! Two girls behind

her came forward, one holding down Sheng Yunlin, the other washing her face stiffly.

“Don’t touch me!” Sheng Yunlin roared, “What kind of person is she?”? You two just listen to her? Aren’t you afraid of being punished?!

The two girls did not dare to speak, but moved harder and faster. After these days, Sheng Yunlin was so thin that she had almost only a handful of bones left. She had no strength at all. It was useless to struggle any more. She could only watch the linen stained with clear water wipe her face at random.

As Sheng Yunlin’s white but morbid skin came out little by little, Qiushui’s eyes narrowed and his eyes became more and more dangerous.

“How deep it is hidden.” “I never thought a place like Yeyouting could have such a color,” she said in a strange tone.

「……」 Sheng Yunlin’s expression was tense.

“However, it will not exist any more.” Qiushui raised his lips and pulled out a knife from his sleeve. The

bright surface of the knife reflected the sunlight from the window, which was particularly dazzling.

Qiushui’s expression was like that of a snake, a scorpion, and a ghost. She approached Sheng Yunlin step by step and faced her face to face. There was only a distance of less than three inches between the tips of her noses. Then she shook her head with a look of regret. “It’s a pity,” she said. “This place doesn’t need such a face.”

Sheng Yunlin’s heartbeat accelerated to an unprecedented level.

As the blade approached her face, she clenched her teeth and closed her eyes.

“Stop!” Outside the woodshed, someone suddenly shouted. There were a lot of people standing

outside the door, all the servants of the raccoon clothes group. The man who drank Qiushui loudly was called Lan Cao, who had a lot of signs of separation from Qiushui on weekdays. Beside her stood a woman whose temperament was completely different from that of the people around her. She looked twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a delicate bun and neat clothes. She looked like a high-ranking palace maid.

“Aunt Xu.” Lan Cao said, “I noticed that Qiushui had disappeared this afternoon. I thought she was just lazy and didn’t want to work, and I wasn’t going to bother you. But I looked around and found that she had brought someone to the woodshed and wanted to Lynch her!”

“I, I didn’t!” Qiushui also panicked.

Then what are you doing with a knife in your hand? Don’t you just want to scratch Hua Yunzhi’s face?! Lan Cao said in a loud voice, “It was you who framed her so that she could be whipped and wait for death here. Now that she has survived, you are so angry that you want to destroy her appearance!”! Qiushui, Yunzhi hasn’t even said a word to you on weekdays. Why are you so vicious?

Sheng Yunlin’s heartbeat gradually calmed down. Aunt

Xu, she has heard of this name. She was in charge of all the sinful servants in the court, and even the eunuch in charge had to give her some face. Because Aunt Xu was only in charge of the smoky place of the secluded courtyard by the way, she hardly ever came here on weekdays.

Sheng Yunlin suddenly wanted to sneer. Everyone

knew that she was used by Qiushui to vent her anger, so she was whipped, but no one dared to stand up for her and let her run her own course in the woodshed. The one who came out now did not come out early or late, but at this time, she broke in with Aunt Xu.

This is to take advantage of her to the end.

Aunt Hsu said, “Press the autumn water down and wait for what happens.”

The two girls who were brought over by Qiushui immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

“These two men..” Aunt Xu frowned.

“Auntie, they didn’t do anything to me.” Sheng Yun-lin says calmly, “They were also forced by the autumn waters.”

Yes, yes! We were forced!

“We just came to wash Yunzhi’s face!” The

girls’ voices were filled with tears.

Aunt Hsu gave them a look of disgust. “I’ll let you off the hook this time.”

Her eyes swept over Sheng Yunlin’s face again, and only then did she realize Sheng Yunlin’s unusual appearance, and her expression was also infected with a somewhat unpredictable and strange meaning.

“All but the bluegrass go back to work.” Aunt Xu said. The people in the

back scattered quickly. “What else can I do for you, Auntie?” Asked

Lan Cao.

“Find a herbalist to show her.”

Orchid grass is stupefied, but still respectfully answers “yes.”.

“Your name is Yunzhi, isn’t it?” Aunt Xu looked at Sheng Yunlin.

“Yes.”

“Lan Cao told me that you recognized a younger brother, and because you protected him, you were beaten.” After

a slight hesitation, Sheng Yunlin nodded his head.

She didn’t know what Aunt Xu meant. In particular.. After I saw what I looked like.

This man won’t recognize her, will he?

But unexpectedly, Aunt Hsu said to her, “It’s pitiful to look at it.”. Bring your bedding here later, tidy up the place, and move the firewood somewhere else. After that, this house will be yours, and you can live here with your brother.

Sheng Yunlin’s eyes suddenly widened.

Her first reaction was: Chen Yu doesn’t have to hide Xizang to study anymore!

She didn’t know why Aunt Hsu had made this decision, but she still said, “Thank you, Aunt!”

……

Out of the woodshed, Lan Cao followed Aunt Hsu. After hesitating for a while, she asked, “Aunt, why are you helping Yun Zhi?”

Aunt Hsu glanced at her and said, “How could you not have noticed her appearance before?”

“This..” The bluegrass was at a loss for words.

On weekdays, the cloud branches are dusty, and do not like to talk, where like the autumn water to dress themselves every day. So for a year, no one paid attention to the appearance of the cloud branch.

You have to take care of her wounds and try not to let her leave a scar. With her face, she won’t be buried in this place. Aunt Hsu said in a deep voice, “Do it before it’s too late.”

Yes. Lan Cao thanks Auntie for her advice. In the days

that followed, Lan Cao brought a herbalist to see Sheng Yunlin. The herbalist left a plaster for Sheng Yunlin to rub on the scar every day to help the scar fade away. But how far it can be diluted is anyone’s guess.

Sheng Yunlin also thanked Lan Cao and the herbalist seriously.

She knew that the other side was just using her, but in this desperate situation, she should be grateful for the kindness of others.

The woodshed was emptied by the bluegrass, and two beds that did not look very strong, a simple wooden table and a bench were added, and the layout was completed. Sheng Yunlin and Chen Yu officially settled down here.

Sheng Yunlin hid Chen Yu’s books, paper, pen and ink under the bed, covered them with straw, and locked the door.

She told Chen Yu, “Although you have a place to study, you must be careful not to be discovered by others.”

“It’s my fault.” Chen Yu lowered his head and blamed himself. “If I had been more careful, I wouldn’t have let my sister suffer.”

Sheng Yunlin shook his head. “No, it has nothing to do with you.”. If we meet such a person in this place, this kind of thing will happen sooner or later. If the other side doesn’t look for this excuse, it will look for something else. “We never compete with these people,” said

Chen Yu, “and we don’t find them on our heads on weekdays.”

“Then you’re wrong.” “It is because we never compete with these people that they are destined to find us,” said Sheng Yunlin with a straight face.

Chen Yu didn’t understand.

Sheng Yun-lin, however, did not give any further explanation. Instead, he said to him, “Read.”

Chen Yu nodded.

The night is getting late. Before going to bed, Sheng Yunlin needs to apply plaster. Her scars are on her back, she can not see, only by Chen Yu to give her medicine.

She took off her clothes and exposed the scarred skin of her back.

Chen Yu did not dare to look directly. What Qiushui had said to Sheng Yunlin that day suddenly came to

his mind: “Why do you still expect to raise him as a lover?”

Chen Yu clenched the medicine bottle and bowed his head in silence.

Sheng Yunlin turned his back to Chen Yu, but he couldn’t feel Chen Yu’s movements for a long time. He could only sigh and said, “It’s ugly, isn’t it?”

Without looking, she knew how ugly her back was.

Chen Yu came to his senses and said hurriedly, “No, it will definitely disappear!”

He carefully smeared the plaster evenly on Sheng Yunlin’s back, not letting go of any of the scars. As he did so, he said, “Sister, we will definitely leave here.”. I’ll get you the best doctor and make all these scars disappear.

“Good.” Sheng Yun-lin replied, “We must all do our best to get out of here.” After

Sheng Yunlin recovered from his wound, he went back to his original house. There were still some of her things in the house, and she came back to pack up. It was evening when

she returned, and the other eleven girls were all in the room, chatting in twos and threes. Water was bubbling on the stove, and the steam was gathering.

The room was full of fireworks, but the moment she entered the room, the air suddenly quieted down.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on her, but no one dared to make a sound. Everyone only knew that Aunt Xu was very angry because of her affairs. Then, Wang Jin tried to protect Qiushui, but Aunt Xu was very unhappy. A few days ago, she found a reason to transfer him directly and replaced him with a new eunuch in charge; Without Wang Jin, Qiushui did not dare to be as domineering as before, while Lan Cao replaced Qiushui’s position and became the most influential woman in the raccoon group. Everyone said that she had been working for Aunt Xu. As for Sheng Yunlin and Chen Yu, no one knew why Aunt Xu wanted to give them a room alone and let Lan Cao help them settle down. Of the eleven people

in the room, those who dared not look directly at Sheng Yunlin were the two who had been taken by Qiushui to see Sheng Yunlin and pressed her to wash her face. Qiu Shui, on the other hand, could not hide his disgust and glared at Sheng Yunlin.

“Oh, has the noble returned?” Qiushui’s tone is as strange as before.

Sheng Yunlin’s eyes were indifferent, and without even looking at her, he began to pack up his things by himself. Enraged by her indifference

, Qiushui ran after her and said, “Are you still up?!”! Do you think you are very powerful? Do you think Aunt Xu really wants to protect you? Do you believe me..?

Sheng Yunlin turned around and gave Qiushui a slap with his backhand.

A loud slap sounded in the room, and everyone kept silent and did not dare to make a sound.

“You, you, you, you..”

“Shh.” Sheng Yunlin raised a finger and stood in front of his lips, his eyes as cold as the moon.

Autumn water was shocked by her expression, unexpectedly really did not dare to make a sound again. At this time, Sheng Yunlin was completely different from the person she had seen in the past year. She clearly remembered that this woman was introverted and inarticulate, and that she should be the kind of person who was most likely to be bullied in this secluded courtyard. But in front of the woman, why has like a deep pool in general, people can not see the end of the eyes?

Sheng Yunlin put down his hand, strode to the stove with an expressionless face, and picked up the pot of water that had just boiled.

Then she went to Qiushui’s bed and poured the pot of boiling water on it!

Qiushui watched helplessly as she watered her bedding and exclaimed, “How dare you do that!”

“Shut up.” Sheng Yunlin said coldly.

Obviously, her tone was not sharp or even high, but she was not angry and arrogant, as if she was giving orders. She

raised her eyes and looked straight at the autumn water. Her eyes were like ice. “Say one more word, and I’ll pour the rest of the water on your face.”

Qiushui was so shocked that he couldn’t say a word.

She suddenly had an illusion that this woman did not look like a servant in a secluded courtyard at all, but had a very noble temperament, which could make people speechless with dignity alone, and it was not too much to say that she was a princess!
