This female ghost is obviously very beautiful

Yuan Shuangqing returned to her small courtyard, and not long after she sat down, Madam Zhang was ordered to come over and teach her the rules.

Yuan Shuangqing stood for more than an hour imitating the etiquette of those ladies from aristocratic families, and she was very similar, but Zhang Nanny always said that her posture was wrong.

Yuan Shuangqing didn't argue with her either.

Past experience let her know that arguing is always useless.

After coming down all morning, he didn't drink half a sip of water. Later, he couldn't stand it and almost passed out, so he was reluctantly let go.

Qiu Yu has been watching from the sidelines, and she wanted to say nothing a few times, but she didn't say anything. When Madam Zhang left, she couldn't vomit: "This mama is determined not to let you feel better, I'm afraid she was ordered by someone. , alas, drink slowly..."

Seeing Yuan Shuangqing pouring cold water into her mouth while holding the teapot, she coughed until the water came out of her nose, Qiu Yu hurriedly grabbed the teapot to control the speed of her drinking, and continued, "Let me tell you! , the old lady can never be so petty, it must be that..."

"Qiu Yu!" Chun Xia interrupted sharply from the side: "The walls have ears, don't forget who you are!"

Qiu Yu's heart skipped a beat, and she knew that she almost said something she shouldn't have said outright, so she patted her chest and gave Chun Xia a grateful look.

After Yuan Shuangqing drank a pot of cold water, her stomach was swollen. The cold was very uncomfortable. She burped and licked her dry lips. She still felt that she hadn't drunk enough, so she went to the well to fetch water.

Qiuyu looked at Yuan Shuangqing's back and said to Chunxia: "She is really docile and can bear anything. Pity us following her. She is always a head shorter than the maids in other courtyards. Look at their arrogant It looks really annoying."

"Don't talk about it, let's just do what we are supposed to do. Don't be fierce about her all the time. If she is not favored, she will be a half-master anyway. One day she will sue the old men, and you will feel better."

"She is stupid, how could she complain?" Qiu Yu said with a smile.

Chunxia frowned, watched Yuan Shuangqing struggling to pull the rope up to lift the water, and said softly: "She is not stupid. Haven't you heard a word? A biting dog can't bark."

In the afternoon, Nanny Zhang came again. Walking under the sun on such a hot day, anyone would have a bad temper, not to mention that the master who made her run around was right in front of her, so she was even more cold-hearted towards Yuan Shuangqing. It's not that it's not right, I kept tossing her until the sun went down in the evening before leaving.

Yuan Shuangqing was exhausted from the torment. She had a quick meal, took a cold bath, then blew out the candles, pulled down the tent and lay straight on the bed, her body was so sore that she couldn't move.

At this time, it was completely dark, and everything in the house could not be seen clearly by the moonlight. Yuan Shuangqing had been accustomed to facing the wall sideways for many years, but tonight was not the case.

After lying quietly like this for more than an hour, Yuan Shuangqing still didn't fall asleep, but just closed her eyes slightly, but her thoughts were not on her.

Sweat rolled down her forehead, and the heat wave swept across. Yuan Shuangqing didn't go to get the cattail fan, she didn't even dare to move.

Will that 'something' come tonight?

After a while, she seemed to hear some movement. Yuan Shuangqing pricked up her ears and recognized that it was the most familiar sound of bells in the past four years, from far to near.

Her eyeballs moved, and when the sound of the bell approached, she clenched her teeth, endured the tightness in her throat, opened her eyes abruptly, and looked towards the source of the sound.

The sound was closer, very close, right next to her bed.

Yuan Shuangqing tried her best to look at the halo cast by the moon, but she couldn't see anything.

When she opened her eyes, she did not know how much mental preparation she had made, thinking a lot about what this 'thing' should look like.The messy imagination of bloody, headless, or non-human forms filled her head every day.

In the end, he never expected that he couldn't see anything.

"You're here, aren't you?" Yuan Shuangqing's throat was hoarse.

No reply.

"If you can hear what I said, can you tear up the tent?" Yuan Shuangqing raised her hand to show her a demonstration, but when she heard a bell ringing, she was so frightened that she held her breath and dared not move.

After a while, Yuan Shuangqing put down her sore arm and said softly, "Are you afraid of me? Then I won't move. If you can hear me, can you let the bell ring once?"

Yuan Shuangqing waited for a long time, but she still couldn't hear the voice she wanted, so she couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.Or stop here, she asks every night, and she will always wait for a response.

"Good night."

Yuan Shuangqing looked at an empty place and said softly.

"Ling."

There was a very clear crisp sound, and then it stopped abruptly, as if it was stopped by something.

Yuan Shuangqing was stunned for a moment, then laughed foolishly.

Although I couldn't see it, I could imagine how that 'thing' fumbled to a stop after shaking.

Now that she received the response, Yuan Shuangqing became more courageous and asked, "Are you a ghost? If so, just ring the bell."

"Ling."

"You... are you a boy?"

This time the bell stopped ringing, Yuan Shuangqing was stunned and asked again: "Are you a girl?"

"Ling."

Yuan Shuangqing smiled, feeling closer to the unknown her.Everyone is a girl...

"Why are you here... I mean, why do you come to me every night?"

"..."

"This bed...is there something you are familiar with?" Yuan Shuangqing continued to probe.

"..."

It's silent again.

Yuan Shuangqing sighed in her heart...

It doesn't matter, the future is long.

This night she fell asleep with that ray of shade. Although the day was not satisfactory, she slept the most carefree and comfortable sleep at this moment.The dream is full of colorful bubbles, supporting her to soar freely in the sky.

She smiled happily, the curvature of the corner of her mouth was dyed with color.

After Yuan Shuangqing got up the next day, she was told that she didn't need to go to pay her respects to her grandmother. Yuan Shuangqing said nothing after she answered.Daily life still has to go on, it's just that there is one less procedure.

It's just that, Yuan Shuangqing's life is even more difficult.Although grandma treated her badly, she was the only one who would ask questions.After that, Nanny Zhang didn't come any more.

Except for Chunxia Qiuyu and herself, no one set foot in this small courtyard, and it became a forgotten corner.

The house is leaking and no one is willing to come to repair it, and the monthly meals are also severely deducted.After autumn and winter come, even charcoal fire is no longer provided.

Qiuyu and Chunxia couldn't see the old lady, so they couldn't tell the truth, but Yuan Shuangqing was a stubborn person. Once Qiuyu urged him to intercede with the old lady, he locked himself in the house and didn't come out for a whole day.

The master didn't do anything, and the two maids had nothing to do, and they gradually resigned themselves to their fate, preparing to get through this cold winter first.

One day, Yuan Shuangqing didn't get up for a long time, and Qiu Yu went to ask her to get up for breakfast. As soon as she entered the room, she felt that the room was as cold as an ice cellar, which was a little colder than the outside. Yuan Shuangqing lay on the bed wrapped in a quilt.

Qiu Yu went to push her, but she didn't move inside, her heart skipped a beat, she quickly reached out to touch Yuan Shuangqing's forehead, it was terribly hot, she turned Yuan Shuangqing over, saw her pale face, her eyes closed tightly, Qiu Yu was very anxious, but had no idea, so she called Chun Xia over.

After Chunxia came in, she touched her forehead first, and then touched the quilt. The quilt covering Yuan Shuangqing was cold and wet. Chunxia didn't care about what to say, so she hurriedly hugged two cotton-wool quilts and replaced the wet quilt. Go prepare hot water towels and ask Qiu Yu, "Have you ever been in this room?"

"It's not very advanced." Qiu Yu said, feeling a little guilty.

"It's too late to talk about this now, take this quilt out to dry." Chunxia handed the wet quilt to her hand: "Let the higher-ups know that if we cover her with a wet quilt, then our lives will not be enough to pay for it." of."

Qiu Yu hurriedly went out with the quilt in her arms, and when she came back, she asked, "What should she do?"

"She has nothing to do," Chunxia sat on the edge of the bed and wiped Yuan Shuangqing's face, and said calmly, "If she dies, we slaves will have no way out."

"Then...then let's run away..."

"What are you thinking about?" Chunxia helplessly patted Qiuyu's forehead: "Go out of the house and call a doctor, if you don't have enough money, we will take it from our private money, and we must cure her."

Seeing that Qiu Yu was still standing still, as if in a daze, Chun Xia stamped her feet and said anxiously: "Go soon!"

Qiu Yu herself had no idea, so she went to do it after listening to the order.

She was not that stupid, Chunxia didn't let her go to the doctor in the mansion, she must not want to make a fuss, so she went out secretly through the back door and invited the doctor back.

The doctor took Yuan Shuangqing's pulse and said that the wind and cold had invaded his body, but his constitution was too poor to use tiger and wolf medicine, so he prescribed a milder prescription.

Qiu Yu came back with the medicine and fed it to Yuan Shuangqing for two days before the fever gradually subsided and she woke up.

Qiu Yu and Chun Xia were short of thanking Yuan Shuangqing by burning incense and praying to Buddha. After that, they took good care of Yuan Shuangqing, and her room was also neatly tidied up.

Yuan Shuangqing didn't like others to enter her room, it was her most private place where hidden secrets were hidden.

I could bear going in and out during the day, but Yuan Shuangqing sternly rejected Qiu Yu several times at night when she said she wanted to accompany her to the bed and even rolled the quilt into the room.

For this reason, Qiu Yu often blamed her for being weird and unkind.

After recovering from her illness, Yuan Shuangqing followed Chunxia to learn how to do some housework. Chunxia was more assertive than Qiuyu in her work, and the dishes she cooked were also very delicious. According to Chunxia, ​​the teacher was passed down from her short-lived mother.

Yuan Shuangqing studied very hard, learned a lot of housework, and gradually cooked dishes that looked good.

Yuan Shuangqing's childhood was full of fear of being hurt and neglected by her relatives, and her life was also filled with various prejudices. Later, Qiu Yu and Chun Xia treated her a little better, more for their own sake, not out of complete sincerity.

For Yuan Shuangqing, the only pure and sincere feelings were all given to that ghost who was already dead, invisible and intangible.

A female ghost...

One, a female ghost with a bell on her body.
