Chapter 4 Appearance

The rain was harsh and the wind was shaking, and Xiaolian's sobs became louder under the cover of the wind and rain.

The slender jade fingers rubbed the orchid on the soft pillow, and Xin You's heart sank: Xiaolian wore white flowers and white clothes when something happened. Was it because Miss Kou died?

And she is now... "Miss Kou".

The chill was crawling all over his spine, and Xin You didn't feel afraid, but felt cold.

After she returned from her outing and witnessed her mother and aunts who watched her grow up, nothing could scare her.

"Xiaolian."

There was a little panic outside. After a while, Xiaolian lowered her head and walked in: "What are the instructions for the girl?"

The room was dark and suddenly a flash of lightning broke through the rich night, bringing a momentary light to the house. Xiaolian saw the girl sitting with her eyes as if it was lighted in paint, which was astonishingly dark.

Her eyes that were so similar to her own girl shocked her for no reason.

"Xiaolian, let me tell me about Miss Kou." No matter how stormy the window was outside, Xin You's voice was still calm.

This is the first time Xin You helped someone wear earrings, but fortunately she was steady and she easily helped Duan Yunling wear them.

Xiaolian returned to the house and saw Xin You lowering her eyes and pondering, saying, "I'm here to bring you breakfast."

The second girl Duan Yunhua showed joy in Miss Kou's amnesia, and the older girl Duan Yunwan also cared about Miss Kou's amnesia, so the third girl Duan Yunling's reaction was even more intriguing.

Xin You focused on Duan Yunwan and explained casually: "I asked Xiaolian what the sisters looked like."

Duan Yunhua sat down on the embroidery pier and smiled: "Don't worry, cousin Qing, just raise it slowly. Even if you can't remember anything, it will not affect your future life."

"I took the medicine yesterday and felt much better." Xin You answered questions and looked like a good temper.

With a lift of the curtain, three girls came in.

"Three sisters--" Duan Yunwan touched Duan Yunling gently.

"I can't remember it clearly when I hit my head." Xin You answered honestly, secretly paying attention to Duan Yunhua's expression, and actually saw a flash of joy in the other party's eyes.

"Then the maid helps you find--"

She looked at Duan Yunhua, saying that since she had lost her memory, why did she recognize Duan Yunhua?

To count the time, they should have come directly after asking the old lady for good morning. Xin You signaled Xiaolian to invite people in.

Xin You was slightly stunned, then bent her lips: "Of course."

In other words, the memory-lost "Miss Kou" cannot judge the authenticity of the third girl's words from Xiao Lian. But the reminder in the third girl's words is very obvious. Is it the simple concern between cousins, or is the third girl knowing something, or is it the thief who shouts to catch the thief and confuse the public?

"Cousin Ling walked slowly."

Xiaolian held the tray and avoided her side: "Miss Three, walk slowly."

The next day, Xin You got up a little late. Just after washing up and before she could have time to have breakfast, the little maid reported that the three girls were coming.

The girl at the head was wearing a pomegranate skirt, with white skin and red lips, like a blooming rose. Xin You learned from Xiaolian that Duan Shaoqing had three girls, and only the second girl Duan Yunhua was born by the eldest wife Qiao, so it should be this girl in the red dress.

Xin You thought about Duan Yunling's words, and when she saw Xiaolian come in, she asked, "Miss Kou goes to burn incense in the beginning of spring, has a Taoist priest criticized her for her?"

Duan Yunhua stood beside the bed, looking down at Xin You sitting on the pillow, and her scrutiny eyes were unconcealed: "Cousin Qing, are you really amnesia?"

"Thank you, cousin." Duan Yunling touched the hanging warm pearls, looked at Xin You with a faint smile, and hesitated for a moment, "Cousin Qing, let's go to burn incense together in spring. Taoist priest said that you are in the Sui Jun when you are in trouble, and it is easy to cause disasters. As expected, it should have been a few days ago. Be careful after that, try to go out as little as possible, even at home... pay more attention."

Duan Yunling sat down on the embroidery pier beside the bed and leaned slightly.

When I first dealt with three girls from Shaoqing's mansion, I felt more and more that Miss Kou's falling off the cliff was not simple.

"Didn't you bump into it?" Duan Yunling, who returned, apologized to Xiaolian, and explained while walking in, "Walking on the road, I found that I lost an earring, maybe it was landed on Cousin Qing..."

After using rice, the soup and medicine were boiled.

"Just find it." Xin You's eyes went from Duan Yunling's empty right earlobe to the pearl earrings in her hand, and she spoke quietly.

Duan Yunling bent down and searched for it, his eyes lit up: "It really fell here!"

"Then cousin, please rest." Duan Yunling stood up and said goodbye. When he walked outside, he met Xiaolian who came in with food.

Duan Yunhua stood up and said, "Carry your cousin well, we won't disturb you to rest."

There must be more than the three sisters who are coming to visit today, and Xin You is not in a hurry to make a judgment.

Xiaolian looked confused: "In the beginning of spring, several girls went to sautumn together, but when they saw the Taoist priest, the maids were waiting around, and they didn't know what the Taoist priest had said."

Duan Yunling came back to his senses with a flash of heart, his eyes flashed: "Cousin Qing, how do you feel? Are you getting better?"

"Cousin Hua said yes."

The two girls who were slightly behind, the older girl had thin eyebrows like smoke, and were pretty and charming. They should be the eldest girl Duan Yunwan, and the other girl with almond eyes should be the third girl Duan Yunling.

"Then I won't bother my cousin."

Duan Yunling waved his hand: "No, you go and do it."

Duan Yunling nodded and quickly left Wanqingju.

Duan Yunling held the pearl earrings and was about to turn around, but suddenly stopped again: "Can you please help me put it on?"

Duan Yunwan looked at Xiaolian and smiled with relief: "Fortunately, Xiaolian is here. If you have any unknown cousin in the future, you can ask me any time."

"Xiao Lian, I'll send three girls to me."

Xiaolian calmed down and said softly: "Yes."

Xin You raised her eyes and watched Xiaolian walk to the door and almost bumped into someone.

"I understand, thank you for the reminder of me."

"Thank you, cousin Wan." Xin You nodded and looked at the third girl Duan Yunling.

Kou Qingqing climbed the mountain with these three cousins. As for Duan Yunyan, the fourth girl in the house, who was still young, she never went out with her sisters that day.

Xiaolian looked at Xin You, saw her nodding, and silently retreated.

"Is that true?" Xin You took the porcelain spoon handed over by Xiaolian and slowly drank the porridge.

Duan Yunling's eyes were on her white porcelain-like face, her eyes were a little complicated: "Then my cousin took good care of her body..."

Duan Yunling had not spoken since he entered the house. At this time, Xin You saw that she was still in a daze.

In Xin You's opinion, if Kou Qingqing fell off the cliff, it was not an accident, and the person who took action must be among these three.

"Three girls——"

Xin You watched the three of them leave and raised her eyebrows slightly.

The big girl Duan Yunwan said in surprise: "Didn't my cousin lose my memory? How could it be--"

Xin You frowned when she thought of the bitterness of the bowl of medicine yesterday, but she didn't say much. She took the bowl from Xiaolian and took a sip. Her face changed slightly and spit the medicine onto the handkerchief.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

Xin You stared at the medicine bowl and her eyebrows tightened even more.

This bowl of medicine seems a little different from yesterday.
