"Pre … previous life …?" Su Shuiche covered her mouth and exclaimed in shock. God, did she hear it wrong?
Long Xiyue, she … was really the same as her?
Her soul came from another time and space?
"That's right, my past life." Long Xiyue stared at Su Shuiyue. She had a serious expression on her face, without a trace of a smile.
"Xiyue …" Su Shuiche whispered. It turned out that she was not the only one in this world who had encountered such a bizarre thing as being possessed …
"Do you think I'm a monster?
A monster who is different from others? "Long Xiyue sighed.
For nine years, she had hidden her behavior from another time and space, but she couldn't resist her longing.
She missed her family and friends there, she missed the superb medical technology there, and she missed her handy surgical tools.
Because of this, she secretly pestered the blacksmith in the palace to make her a whole set of surgical knives. However, she never used it for anything other than to reminisce about the past.
This time, he originally thought that it would come in handy, but it was carried over by Su Shui Yue.
The frail mother and the huge twin were supported by this seemingly weak and boneless little woman.
"How could it be?" Su Shuiche suddenly sat up and pulled Long Xiyue's hand.
What Long Xiyue had said just now had undoubtedly revealed the fear in her heart.
"Can't it be?
Although the people in this world are simple in nature, they may not be able to accept my situation.
After a bout of unconsciousness, his soul seemed to have changed. If it were you, wouldn't you be afraid? "
Long Xiyue smiled faintly. Her low voice reached Su Shuiche's ears, but it made her calm down.
In this world, she was no longer a lonely soul. There was another person like her, whose soul came from another time and space.
This knowledge made Su Shuiche calm down inexplicably.
This kind of calmness was different from the peace of mind Ah Yao brought to her.
The faint worry that came from the depths of her heart had now quietly disappeared.
"I was indeed afraid. I was afraid that if others knew, they would tie me to a tall tree and burn me." Su Shuiche said softly.
The loneliness in Long Xiyue's eyes made her forget her fear.
"So, you came from the time when you lost your memory?"
Long Xiyue heard this and nodded with a faint smile. She was sure of her conjecture, so she simply opened her mouth, "But, you don't look like someone from the 21st century?"
"21st century?
What dynasty is that? "Su Shuiche raised her eyebrows in surprise." I clearly remember that it was the 23rd year of the Republic of China. "
"Heavens!" This time, it was Long Xiyue's turn to open her small cherry mouth in shock.
A woman from the Republic of the Republic of China!
No wonder her words and actions all revealed the elegance and demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
"Let me guess. You must be a lady from a noble family?" Long Xiyue was stunned for a while and said with certainty.
"Yes, I should be.
Have you heard of the Su Embroidery Family? "
Su Shuiche smiled shyly and then nodded. The Su Family in Suzhou of the Republic of China was indeed considered a noble family, right?
At least, at that time, the Su Embroidery Family was famous in the country and even the world.
"The Su Embroidery Family?
So … Ah, I remember now. You are not from Suzhou, are you?
Surnamed Su?
Su Shuiche?
No wonder!
Ah!
Your family is the Su Family of the Su Embroidery Family? "Long Xiyue was more and more surprised as she spoke. In the end, she pointed at Su Shuiche with her eyes wide open and shouted.
Long Xiyue's grandmother's family was in Suzhou. She once heard from her grandmother that not far from her old house, there was a very large pavilion surrounded by high walls. It was passed down from the Su Family of the Republic of China. They made their fortune with Su Embroidery.
There was also a beautiful name of "the Su Embroidery Family".
When she was young, Long Xiyue often went to her grandmother's house in Suzhou for the summer holidays. She mischievously followed her cousins everywhere. She even tried to climb over the high walls of the Su Family. Although at that time, the government had already isolated the big house from the people in the alleys with a sign of "cultural relics protection unit".
What a mess! How did history develop?
Two women who were originally unrelated but inextricably linked actually met across time and space …
The two looked at each other and laughed heartily.
It was so good to meet a "fellow countryman" in the Dahui Country, which was tens of thousands of miles away …
…
"Look at this girl. She is so fresh!
She looks almost exactly like Shui Yatou.
When she grows up in the future, she will also be a beauty! "
Aunt Lao and Aunt Tian, who came to visit Su Shuiche, chatted for a while. When they saw that Lin Long had woken up, they happily teased this cute and delicate baby.
"You don't say. Xiao 'er looks like Ah Yao, and Long' er looks like Shui Yatou. They are really dragons and phoenixes among men!"
Aunt Tian clicked her tongue and sighed. As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes … Like Su Shuiche and Lin Siyao, one was graceful and graceful, the other was handsome and tall. The children they gave birth to naturally wouldn't be ugly.
If they had this blessing, they would want to be the first to set up a marriage between their daughter and Su Shuiche.
Speaking of which, Xi Cui also came with good news a while ago. She was two months pregnant.
The due date would be at the end of next summer.
These days, Aunt Lao had been working non-stop to make clothes and shoes.
Tian Niu's marriage was originally going to be held next year. After the groom's family repeatedly urged, it was set to be held before the end of the year, on the 20th of December. There was only half a month left from now. Therefore, Aunt Tian's face was full of joy and she was busy preparing for the marriage.
"Aunt Lao, give these clothes to Xi Cui for me."
Su Shuiche asked Chun Lan to pick out two sets of fine white cotton monk robes, two sets of lotus green embroidered frog dudou, and two pairs of tiger-head shoes from the new wardrobe. They were all given to Aunt Lao.
"No, no, no. Xiao 'er and Long' er are still young. They can be used.
Aren't I making them right now?
Anyway, there is still a long time. There is enough time to prepare. "Aunt Lao waved her hands repeatedly.
These two sets of fine white cotton clothes cost at least a few hundred copper coins. How could she have the nerve to accept them?
The underwear she made for the baby in Xi Cui's womb, other than the new cotton clothes for the baby to wear at the baby's one-month-old birthday banquet, were all old clothes she found from her son and daughter's childhood. She took them and remodeled them.
If the child grew up wearing new clothes made from fine white cotton, then she wouldn't be able to afford it.
"Aunt Lao, just accept them.
I made them myself. The material is very soft.
Xiao 'er and Long' er's clothes are enough to wear. "Su Shuiche simply asked Chun Lan to put them in a bag. When she sent Aunt Lao out later, she would give them to her.
Counting carefully, before Lin Xiao and Lin Long turned five years old, she probably wouldn't need to sew new clothes, shoes, and socks.
Before she gave birth, she prepared several sets for each age group. When Mama Liang and the others came, they also brought several wardrobes of new clothes. When Duke Jing and Princess Consort Jing came, they also brought a lot of new clothes.
If it was said that Lin Xiao and Lin Long wouldn't lack new clothes until they were five years old, then that was a conservative estimate.
"This …" Aunt Lao was too embarrassed to accept them.
Su Shuiche already gave them quite a few gifts.
Almost every time she came, she would get something.
Last time, Mama Liang ordered Chun Lan to send a gift box of brocade to her family. Although she was unwilling, she knew that if her eldest daughter-in-law found out, she would definitely take it.
Thus, she steeled her heart and made new clothes for herself and her husband for the new year. She could show off when she went back to her maternal home.
"Since the lass is giving it to Xi Cui, you should accept it on her behalf.
It's not like we don't want to be neighbors anymore. There will be opportunities to return it in the future. "Aunt Tian poked Aunt Lao's elbow and advised with a smile.
She was a straightforward person.
Since the lass Shui already said that she would give it to them, she already ordered the maids to wrap it up properly. What was there to be shy about?
It would be better to send some fresh food over as a return gift the next time they go home.
"Aunt Tian's words are very true. We should be neighbors for a long time." Su Shuiche responded with a smile.
Then, she let Chun Lan pick out a pair of phoenix carved silver bracelets from the jewelry box that she had bought when she went to the market because she felt that the carving was exquisite and unique. She wrapped it in a silk handkerchief and gave it to Aunt Tian. "I still can't go out on Da Niu's wedding, so I'll add on the wedding gift first."
"But … this is too expensive!" Aunt Tian saw that it was a pair of pure silver bracelets carved with phoenix carved bracelets. She knew that the price wouldn't be cheap.
"Then, right, I remember that Da Niu likes porcelain … Chun Lan, go to the cellar and pick out some porcelain vases suitable for the wedding. Send them to the Tian Family for me as a wedding gift."
"Yes, Young Miss. Chun Lan remembers that there is a pair of dragon and phoenix vases with festive colors. Should I go and look for it?"
"That would be great." Su Shuiche quickly nodded and signaled Chun Lan to go to the cellar to find suitable porcelain vases for the wedding.
She had roughly looked at the porcelain decorations in the cellar. Some of them were extremely expensive antique decorations, while others were moderately priced for flower arrangements.
There were about fifteen or sixteen pairs, all of which were wrapped in cotton wool and stored in a large wooden box.
After moving into the new residence, she only picked out four pairs of plain and elegant porcelain vases to replace the original vases that were broken on the spot because of the Feng Qing Cliff incident.
"Lass …" Even the straightforward Aunt Tian was bashful at this time.
Porcelain!
Only rich people could afford to use them as decorations.
The porcelain sold on the market, even the cheapest rough vase, cost several hundred copper coins. Moreover, it was only used to arrange flowers on the table.
Therefore, although Da Niu enviously wanted to buy a pair as a dowry, she was stopped by her.
If the copper coins spent on a pair of porcelain vases were used to make cotton cloth, it would be enough to make several layers of cloth.
"Aunt Tian, I know that Da Niu also likes flowers and plants. With a vase, it will add some elegance to our new home in the future." Su Shuiche smiled and comforted Aunt Tian.
Tian Niu was not like Xi Cui. She had a calm temperament and excellent embroidery.
Tian Niu's temperament was just like Aunt Tian's. She was honest and generous. She did not like needlework, but she was passionate about flowers and plants.
When he came to visit, he was particularly fond of the porcelain vase that she had placed on the table for flower arrangement. He would often pick the flowers of the season from the other neighbors' yards and excitedly put them in the vase that was idle at home.
In the end, Aunt Tian could not dissuade Su Shuiche. She took the pair of white porcelain vases that Chun Lan carried over. She lovingly stroked them up and down. Feeling the smooth texture under her hands, she could not help but say, "Lass, this porcelain vase … is expensive, right?"
"It's not expensive. It's all used to arrange flowers and decorations.
As long as Da Niu likes it, it's worth it. "Su Shuiche shook her head, indicating that Aunt Tian should not take it to heart.
In this Flowery Town, there were only two or three families that were worthy of her attentiveness.
Now that the Tian Family was marrying off a daughter, she was in confinement and could not personally go out to buy gifts. She could only use things sent from the Palace to add to Tian Niu's dowry. Fortunately, Tian Niu really liked these elegant porcelain vases, so she was happy to relax and not waste her time thinking.
