Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 160 Recovery

After the end of the new year, the snow in Yanjing finally stopped for two days. During the two days of the stoppage, the sun came out very rarely.

The new year washes away the unhappiness of the past year, and no matter what, a new beginning must continue.

The criticism that the Jiang family has suffered in the past year seems to have been tacitly discussed by the Jiang family to forget. Suddenly everyone stopped mentioning it, and the servants in the mansion no longer lived with mournful faces, but were happy and happy again. What happened in the past is buried, and everyone still lives the same.

Jiang Yuanbai also began to go to court, and no longer claimed sick leave.

On this day, the weather was fine, and Jiang Li was sitting at the gate of the yard, watching the bright moon and the breeze bring out the books in the house to dry. One winter day, the books were so damp that they were covered, and when there was sunshine, they could be taken out to dry in the sun to get rid of all the bugs.

While squinting to enjoy the warm sun, Bai Xue suddenly came in from the outside and said, "Girl, Ah Shun from Ye Mansion just came over and told the girl to go over quickly, something happened to Xue Xiancheng."

The smile on Jiang Li's face faded instantly, she stood up abruptly, and said, "What's the matter? What happened to Xue Xiancheng?"

"The slave has asked, Ah Shun said that she couldn't make it clear for a while, so I asked the girl to go over and have a look. Now the third master and Miss Situ are both in the Ye Mansion, girl, do you want to go now?" Bai Xue knew that Jiang Li was coming. Nervous Xue Huaiyuan was very nervous. If he found out that Xue Huaiyuan had something good or bad, he might rush over to see it immediately. So almost as soon as Ah Shun finished speaking, he sent people to prepare the carriage.

Jiang Li really said: "Of course we go now." She hurried back to the house, and she didn't have time to dress up. She only took a cloak and came out, calling Tong'er and Bai Xue, "You guys go with me."

She left in a hurry and told Mingyue and Qingfeng that if anyone asked, she would go to Yefu. Anyway, the old lady and Jiang Yuanbai turned a blind eye to her frequent visits to the Ye Mansion, and no one dared to say anything. After getting into the carriage, Jiang Li felt her heart beating extremely fast. She clearly saw Xue Huaiyuan a few days ago, and Xue Huaiyuan was still fine. Situ Jiuyue said that he can read and write now. Although he often sits in a daze, it means that he is gradually getting better and has begun to actively search for his own memories. Why did Ah Shun rush over after only two days, saying something happened to Xue Huaiyuan?

Jiang Li smiled, if it wasn't for the emergency, Ye Mingyu would not have asked Ah Shun to tell him. It can be seen that this matter has reached a very critical time.

Bai Xue saw that Jiang Li was very nervous, and comforted her: "Young lady, don't worry, with Miss Situ here, nothing will happen."

"Yes, girl," Tong'er followed suit, "Maybe it's Xue Xiancheng who got better today and recovered his memory?"

Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat, and others thought that restoring memory was probably a good thing. But Jiang Li knew that for Xue Huaiyuan, recovering his memory might mean the coming of pain. If Xue Huaiyuan really recovers his memory and regains his sanity, the first thing he has to face is the fact that all his children are dead and the Xue family is no longer. For a father, there is no greater pain in the world than this.

Will he break down again? Don't even want to think about it. Jiang Li's heart is like a knife.

Thinking wildly like this, he soon arrived at the gate of Ye Mansion. The door of Ye Mansion was open, and the servant was waiting outside. Seeing Jiang Li, he said, "Second Miss Jiang, you are finally here."

Hearing this, Jiang Li was even more flustered, wishing she could fly to Xue Huaiyuan's side immediately. She didn't even have time to say hello to the porter, and rushed in hastily, holding up her skirt.

In the room where Xue Huaiyuan often lived, there were several people standing outside. Jiang Li approached, saw clearly that the person standing outside was Ye Mingyu, and said, "Uncle!"

Ye Mingyu was taken aback, and asked, "Why did you come so fast?"

Although the distance between Ye Mansion and Jiang Mansion is not too far, it is not possible to arrive so soon. Jiang Li said: "I asked the coachman to hurry." The coachman got her order and traveled quickly along the way, and finally arrived at the gate of Ye Mansion in the shortest time.

"Uncle, what happened? Is Xue Xiancheng in the house?" Jiang Li hurriedly asked without waiting for Ye Mingyu's answer.

Knowing that she always attached great importance to Xue Huaiyuan's affairs, Ye Mingyu sighed and said, "I don't know what to say about this matter. I happened to be in the mansion early this morning. Reading, even though he was just staring at the book in a daze, I moved a stool for him to bask in the sun and read a book in the yard."

"Later the kitchen came to bring hot soup, so I got up to serve hot soup. When I turned around, I saw Xue Xiancheng sitting on the ground, and the stool was overturned. Maybe he didn't stand firmly when he got up. You know someone got on it. I am old, and sometimes I get dizzy when I get up suddenly. I saw him sitting on the ground and didn’t get up. I was afraid that he would bump into something, so I hurried forward to help him. When I saw his appearance, I was shocked. His head Knocked on the top and bled a lot."

Hearing this, Jiang Li felt overwhelmed, and couldn't help asking: "Why is it so serious? Are you okay now?"

"I was also taken aback. Who knew that old man Xue looked at me and suddenly asked me: Who are you? A Li," he scratched his head, "The old man's face at that time looked really scary. These days He also often asks people this question, but today's tone is really strange, and I can't say what is wrong, anyway, I replied that I am Ye Mingyu, and he asked me where this is, and I said it was Yanjing City. Then he didn't want it I helped and stood up by myself."

Jiang Li said: "Stand up by yourself?"

"Isn't it? I thought the old man Xue was in good health, and now he doesn't like to be helped. But after only two steps, he fell down. I was so scared that I hurriedly asked someone to invite Doctor Situ to come over. I thought Old man Xue is acting weird today, don’t worry if something happens. Miss Situ came quickly, but after Miss Situ came, she just told me to let you come over quickly. "

Jiang Li listened in a daze, Situ Jiuyue said so, it must be because Xue Huaiyuan's matter is not a trivial matter.

While thinking, Situ Jiuyue's voice came from inside the house: "Is Jiangli here? Come in quickly."

"Okay, I'm calling you, go in quickly." Ye Mingyu said.

Jiang Li and Ye Mingyu entered the room together.

The curtains in the room were all drawn, probably by Situ Jiuyue. Although it was daytime, with the lights on, it was bright, with a calming aroma lingering on the tip of the nose, Jiang Li walked to the side, Situ Jiuyue was sitting by the bed, and Haitang was standing beside her. Haitang lowered her head, her eyes were red, as if she had been crying.

Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat. Now that things have come to an end, if something happens to Xue Huaiyuan, she may not know how to persevere.

She looked towards Xue Huaiyuan.

Xue Huaiyuan was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and the wound on his head had been bandaged. Situ Jiuyue was packing his medicine box with his head down, Jiang Li couldn't help but said, "Miss Jiuyue..."

"He may have recovered his memory." Situ Jiuyue said without raising his head.

Jiang Li's hands trembled, and she didn't know what to say for a while. After a while, she said: "...all of them?"

"Maybe." Situ Jiuyue stood up, facing Jiang Li, she said lightly, "Even if not all of them, he should have remembered most of the things he thinks are very important."

Jiang Li calmed down, and asked again: "But why is he sleepy now?"

"Because I remembered most of the past, those memories shouldn't be particularly good memories." Situ Jiuyue said very calmly, "As far as I know, the past of this county magistrate Xue has been very good. Miserable. It is because the first thing he thought of after recovering his memory was the painful thing, and he couldn't bear it for a while, so he fell asleep. You can regard this behavior as his instinctive escape. But I have already talked to you before Having said that, this scenario is very likely."

Jiang Li lowered her eyes, "I know." She asked softly again, "When will Xue Xiancheng wake up?"

"It's hard to say, it depends on how long he escaped." Situ Jiuyue carried the medicine box on his back, "Don't think it's a simple matter. Anyone who is brave or cold-blooded suddenly regains his memory, especially This kind of bad memory will definitely go through a struggle. When he gradually accepts the fact and is willing to wake up, he will naturally wake up. It may be one day or ten days. If you need, Of course I can give him an injection to wake him up immediately, but it would be painful for him to face this reality unprepared. How are you going to do it?"

Facing Situ Jiuyue's gaze, Jiang Li twitched the corners of her mouth, but she couldn't smile in the end, she said: "No need, let him accept it slowly, wake up slowly."

It took her a long time to come out and accept the fact of the past. Her father loved her and Xue Zhao so much, and the hurt she suffered was a hundred times and a thousand times deeper than her. How could she have the heart to let her father's pain be deepened?

Ye Mingyu sighed, and said: "This Xue Xiancheng's life is really bumpy, and it makes people feel very sad."

"No matter what, when he wakes up, he will have to face a sober life." Situ Jiuyue's tone seemed to contain some melancholy, and she said: "Actually, the past is not bad. The lunatic in my eyes lives happier than others."

She herself is Princess Molan. After going through the turmoil back then, she knew how cruel it was to face the reality soberly. Xue Huaiyuan can probably empathize with her.

"I want to stay here." Haitang's voice was still choked with sobs, "Master is like this, if he finds out what happened to the Xue family, he must be very sad. I want to stay with the master, at least tell the master that the Xue family is not No one is there. I also want to tell the master about the grievance of the young lady, so that the old man can know that the young lady was not as miserable as others said."

Jiang Li looked at Situ Jiuyue, and Situ Jiuyue shrugged, saying: "This is the person who came back after you, of course you have the final say, don't look at me."

Jiang Li thought for a while, then said to Haitang: "Since that's the case, you can stay here. It's good to take care of Xue Xiancheng, but don't go out on weekdays. Save yourself from being seen."

Haitang nodded: "Okay."

When Jiang Li made this trip, she originally thought that something happened to Xue Huaiyuan, but she didn't expect to learn that Xue Huaiyuan had recovered her memory.

After she looked at Xue Huaiyuan's bed for a while, she walked out of the house and saw Situ Jiuyue waiting for her outside the house. Jiang Li took a step forward, and Situ Jiuyue said, "After Xue Huaiyuan regains his memory, are you going to tell her that you are going to mention Xue Fangfei's revenge?"

Jiang Li said truthfully: "I don't know."

"Oh?" Situ Jiuyue was puzzled.

"If you tell him, he may feel that his children's hatred needs the help of others to avenge it, and he may feel even more sad. But if you don't tell him...he should know the truth."

Situ Jiuyue laughed lightly, "You are very considerate."

Jiang Li shook her head: "I just don't know what to do."

"It's strange. You have always had a strong opinion on other matters, but when it comes to the Xue family's affairs, you always care about it and cause chaos." Situ Jiuyue said: "I don't understand, but it's okay. Wait for Xue Huaiyuan On the day I wake up, I will come to Ye Mansion to see him. I will tell you later, as for how you get along with Xue Huaiyuan and how to tell him the truth, that is up to you." She waved her hand and went to Go forward, "I'm going back first, so I won't accompany you."

Situ Jiuyue just left.

Ye Mingyu looked at Situ Jiuyue's back and sighed, "Doctor Situ is also an extraordinary person."

Jiang Li came back to her senses, Ye Shijie was not at the mansion, she was in the house again, and accompanied Haitang to take care of Xue Huaiyuan for a while, and after having dinner with Ye Shijie at Ye Mansion at noon, she took the carriage to Jiang's Mansion.

On the way back, Jiang Li was full of worries along the way. Tong'er and Bai Xue didn't dare to disturb her, but Jiang Li was a little upset. How should Xue Huaiyuan tell him after he wakes up, should we recognize him, and when will we recognize him? What if Xue Huaiyuan doesn't believe that he is Xue Fangfei? Her heart was in a mess, and at the same time, she also felt unspeakable guilt.

Xue Zhao died for rehabilitating himself. Even if he became Miss Jiang Er and regained his life, it was impossible for Xue Zhao to live again. After all, the father had to face the fact of losing a son, Jiang Li didn't know what to say.

As long as she thought of this scene, she felt chills all over her body.

After returning to Jiang's mansion, Jiang Li didn't want to say anything, and went straight to Fangfeiyuan. Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, Mingyue came over and said, "Girl, someone came to see you, but the servant girl said that you went out, so she is waiting for you to come back in the front hall."

"See me?" Jiang Li really didn't have the heart to meet any guests today, but she also knew that she must be courteous. It's just that her friends come very rarely, and there are very few who can take the initiative to come to the door. If they are insignificant people, they will disappear if they don't see each other. So she asked, "Who wants to see me?"

She guessed, maybe it was catkins. Liu Xu is the only lady who has been friends with her in Yanjing City. Who knew that Mingyue shook her head and said, "Mr. Xiao Deyin from Mingyi Hall."

"Xiao Deyin?" Jiang Li frowned, she never thought that Xiao Deyin would come to find her? Not to mention Xue Fangfei, in Miss Jiang Er's life, she has no friendship with Xiao Deyin other than the name of Mingyitang's master and apprentice. Besides, the master-student friendship is still very weak. As long as Jiangli is not in school, there is nothing. Especially when she came here, she hardly ever went to Mingyi Hall anymore, and she never met Xiao Deyin face to face. It was inexplicable, how could Xiao Deyin take the initiative to come to her?

Besides... Jiang Li pondered in her heart, didn't Ye Mingyu just send someone to arrange a "silence" at the gate of Xiao Deyin's residence a few days ago, Xiao Deyin should be in a panic when he was at a loss, why would he come to her?

"Is she still in the front hall?" Jiang Li asked, "If she is still there, Mingyue, you can bring her to my yard. It is always inconvenient to talk in the front hall."

Mingyue hurriedly said: "She's still there, this servant invites her here."

Jiang Li took off her cloak, changed her clothes, and asked Tong'er to tidy up her hair a little bit, looking very calm. Sitting in front of the stone table in the yard, half of the sunlight streamed into the blue tea, and when the tea was just warm enough, Xiao Deyin came.

She followed behind Mingyue, wearing a purple gauze embroidered with plum blossoms, graceful and graceful, with wide sleeves, giving her a somewhat otherworldly air. And her face is beautiful, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she looks gentle and kind. No wonder Xiao Deyin is the first one who is the most popular among the students in Mingyi Hall.

When she saw Jiang Li, she came forward with a smile and called, "Xiao Li." She sat down on the other side of the stone table.

"Mr. Xiao." Jiang Li also smiled back and said, "Why are you free to come here today?"

"You haven't come to Mingyi Hall in the past few days. I know something happened to your family." Xiao Deyin said with a smile: "I have wanted to visit you for a long time, but I was afraid of disturbing the family and felt a little inconvenient. But you You are the best student in Mingyi Hall. At least in terms of piano art, there is no better student in Mingyi Hall than you. I like you from the bottom of my heart. After thinking about it, the new year is over, let's take a look you."

What he said, it seemed that this gentleman loved and cared about this student very much on weekdays, and he also said that Jiang Li was her favorite student. Jiang Li smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor refuting. With crooked eyebrows and eyes, for some reason, Xiao Deyin looked a little hot.

But she quickly said: "Xiaoli, how are you doing these days, when do you plan to return to Mingyi Hall?"

"Maybe I don't plan to go to Mingyi Hall in the future." Jiang Li said. She originally entered Mingyi Hall only to inquire about news, and secondly, to make a name for herself. Now that the two goals have been achieved, and Mingyitang can't teach her anything else, it's a waste of time to stay any longer. Besides, spending most of her time in Mingyi Hall meant that she could only spend a small part of her time caring about Xue Huaiyuan and taking revenge on Shen Yurong, which was really not worthwhile.

Jiang Li clearly saw a trace of laundry in Xiao Deyin's eyes, but there was a genuine regret on Xiao Deyin's face, and she said, "Why? You are the best student in Mingyi Hall."

"Sir, it's really a lot of trouble in the mansion, and I'm no longer suitable to go to Mingyi Hall."

Xiao Deyin sighed: "You have made up your mind, and I can't persuade you anymore. Knowing that you have your own ideas, I can only regret it. You know, the students of Mingyi Hall, I like you the most. Not only because you are talented, but also because you have courage and a heart of justice. For example, in the case of Xue Huaiyuan in Tongxiang, you, a boudoir lady, dared to take the villagers of Tongxiang to Beijing to appeal for them. Even I, I admire it in my heart of."

Come, come, this is the purpose of Xiao Deyin's trip, Jiang Li knew it well, and immediately knew that the highlight of Xiao Deyin's visit today was here. But she pretended not to know, just smiled, and said a little shyly: "If you change the husband, you will do the same."

Xiao Deyin nodded, and said with a sigh: "It's just that in this world, although there are many people with a righteous heart, there are very few people without a righteous heart."

"Sir, you think too much. There are still many good people in this world." Jiang Li acted like an innocent and kind young lady at the right time.

Xiao Deyin glanced at her, then leaned closer to her suddenly, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Li, you tell sir, the evidence that Feng Yutang was ordered to attack Xue Xiancheng at the court meeting, and the person behind it was Princess Yongning, is not just a piece of evidence. Rumors?"

Jiang Li was taken aback, covered her mouth and said, "Why did Mr. Xiao say that?"

Xiao Deyin, however, was sure that she was hiding something, and said, "You tell Mr., is that right or not?"

"It was made very clear at the court meeting at the beginning," Jiang Li hesitated, "The evidence was presented, but it was just a trick by someone with a heart to slander Princess Yongning. Although there is a letter of the princess on it , but it can’t be true.”

"Since there are seals, it is true. How can it be called cheating? If someone else has been convicted, it is only because she is a princess that others will try to excuse her." Xiao Deyin said.

Jiang Li looked at her in surprise, as if she was extremely surprised that Xiao Deyin would say this, she said: "But the most important thing is, Her Royal Highness has no reason to do this! Xue Xiancheng is a county magistrate in Tongxiang, very far away from Yanjing City. Far away, in the whole life, I am afraid that the county magistrate Xue has never seen Princess Yongning. Why does Her Royal Highness bother to embarrass the county magistrate of a small county?"

"No reason?" Xiao Deyin said with a meaningful smile on his face, "Why not?"

Jiang Li's eyes widened.

Xiao Deyin leaned forward again, almost leaning into Jiang Li's ear and said, "Your Highness, the princess, is very fond of Mr. Shen, who was the number one scholar back then, and Mrs. Shen's father is Xue Xiancheng."

Jiang Li frowned: "I don't understand." She vividly expressed a simple young lady who was intelligent but knew nothing about men and women. Xiao Deyin did not doubt that she had him, so she pointed out: "Princess Yongning likes Mrs. Shen, but she thinks Mrs. Shen In the way, the woman's jealousy made the princess not hesitate to embarrass Xue Xiancheng, who is thousands of miles away, to satisfy her desire for revenge."

Jiang Li was startled, and looked at Xiao Deyin anxiously: "Sir! You can't talk nonsense!"

"Why should I lie to you?" Xiao Deyin sighed softly, "Actually, the matter of Mrs. Shen, Xue Fangfei, may have had a lot of twists and turns. Think about how it could be so coincidental. Before Master Shen became the number one scholar, no one knew. Just mingled with his wife Qinse, and after he won the number one prize, Her Royal Highness saw it and fell in love with it. Mrs. Shen happened to have an affair with someone, and died of illness not long after? It happened that there were three people in one family, and there was nothing left, Xiao Li, you With a clear mind, you don't know the dangers of the world, but you must understand that if people become bad, they can do anything."

Jiang Li wanted to laugh when she heard that, Xiao Deyin said this with sincerity, but wasn't this about Xiao Deyin herself?

Jiang Li seemed frightened by these words, and whispered: "Sir, you can't talk nonsense, how do you know that Princess Yongning likes Shen Zhuangyuan?"

"Of course I have evidence. When I heard about this before, I was just like you. I wouldn't believe it. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes..." She sighed, "I wanted to avenge my friend Fang Fei, but unfortunately, people speak lightly. Princess Yongning has a lot of power in Yanjing City, but I am just a piano teacher, so it is difficult to resist. I am afraid that I will be killed before I tell the truth."

Jiang Li flinched.

Xiao Deyin looked at her: "Xiaoli, can you believe what Mr. said?" Her words were earnest and her tone was sincere, which did not seem to be fake at all. Jiang Li hesitated for a while, and finally nodded slightly.

"Actually, I don't dare to tell others these things." Xiao Deyin said: "This secret is of great importance, and I'm afraid of causing trouble. Besides, I'm in Yanjing City, except for Fang Fei, I'm used to being alone In the past, I had no friends and no one to trust. But Xiaoli, you are different."

"You are a person who personally accepted the Tongxiang case. You dare to reverse the case for Xue Xiancheng at the court meeting, which shows that you are upright in your heart and are not afraid of the powerful. Let me tell you, and you are not afraid of telling others. Moreover," she plucked up her courage , looked into Jiang Li's eyes and said, "I also hope that you can help."

"Me?" Jiang Li was surprised, "How can I help?"

Xiao Deyin said: "Since you have taken care of Xue Fangfei's affairs and Xue Fangfei is his daughter, you may take care of it to the end and rehabilitate Xue Fangfei. I know you are upright in your heart, and you have the entire Jiang family behind you, maybe Can compete with Princess Yongning. Although I learned the truth and wanted to complain for my friend, but the power is weak. But I think, if we can join hands, maybe things will be much easier."

"Join together?"

"Yes." Xiao Deyin saw that Jiang Li seemed to be moved, and said quickly: "If you are willing to fight for Xue Fangfei's case, I can be your most important witness and help you identify Princess Yongning. In this way, the odds of winning are very high." It's huge!"

Jiang Li looked at Xiao Deyin with a surprised face, but she almost couldn't help laughing out loud. She really didn't expect that Xiao Deyin would find her, and she had such an idea. This was originally Xiao Deyin's idea, but now it seems to have become Jiang Li's task, and Xiao Deyin just became a "witness", and when he saw that the momentum was wrong, he could withdraw in time.

She was as selfish as ever.

Jiang Li sneered in her heart, but there was a hesitant expression on her face, and said: "Sir, I can't make up my mind about this matter for a while, let me think about it."
