The Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness of Crossing

When we returned to the couple garden, it was already afternoon.

Xia Chan hurriedly walked ahead, and stopped as soon as she stepped into the courtyard.Chunliu followed closely behind and asked "Why didn't you go?" Xia Chan didn't say anything, just stood still.Chunliu was surprised, walked around to her side, followed her gaze to look over, gasped, and stood still.Yuan Cuixiao and Shen Zhongyuan walked side by side, and suddenly saw the two of them, as if they had been cast with a fixed spell, they approached curiously, put their hands on their shoulders and said, "Go into the house, I don't mind standing here. Sunshine?"

Xia Chan muttered softly: "It's indeed the sun..."

Something is wrong with this girl... Yuan Cuixiao patted Chunliu and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chunliu pouted in the court, with a regretful expression on her face.

Yuan Cuixiao stared intently, as if swallowing a large piece of ice suddenly, trembling all over, said in a trembling voice: "No way?!" She pushed the two of them aside with all her strength, and rushed forward.Dishui Guanyin, who used to be as tall as her, is now more than half shorter, with branches and leaves spilling out, like a peacock spreading its tail.She squatted down annoyed, and touched the drooping leaf stalks one by one, and few of them could be straightened up. She was so distressed that her mouth kept making "hissing" sounds.The other three people had gathered around and looked at her without saying a word, with the same pitiful eyes.

Yuan Cuixiao tugged at the corner of Shen Zhongyuan's robe, and asked anxiously: "Master, look, are you still alive?"

Shen Zhongyuan bent down, pushed aside the leaves, looked at the flower roots, pressed the pot soil again, and shook his head expressionlessly.

Yuan Cuixiao's heart sank, she couldn't believe it: "This counts as death...?"

Shen Zhongyuan nodded.

Yuan Cuixiao pulled the hem of his robe more forcefully, and begged: "Master, think about another way. When I watered it in the morning, it was still in good condition, and I moved it out to bask in the sun. I have worked so hard." Lao Li took care of it, but it died as soon as it died!"

The corners of Shen Zhongyuan's mouth trembled slightly, he glanced at her with lowered eyes, quickly moved away, pulled his robe and said: "The sun is so poisonous, if you pour water on it, the roots will burn out. You will die thoroughly." Yes, there is no way to save it."

Yuan Cuixiao let go of her hands, slumped on the ground, and whispered dejectedly: "What can I do..."

Chunliu and Xia Chan quickly helped her up, Shen Zhongyuan looked at her distraught character, coughed lightly and said: "Dead flowers can't come back to life, my little lady's condolences."

"Drip Water Avalokitesvara, is that the name? Is it okay if I go to the greenhouse to find a new pot?" Yuan Cuixiao said whimsically.

The corner of Shen Zhongyuan's mouth twitched again: Do you think Zhao Jue is a fool...

"Do you think they will be recognized?" Yuan Cuixiao looked at them expectantly.

Xia Chan was stared at awkwardly, so she mustered up the courage to hit her and said, "My lord has raised this pot of Dripping Guanyin for five years. It's only been a few days since I left the house, so I should remember what it looked like."

Chunliu suddenly thought of something, interjected: "Little lady, have you fed the koi and parrot yet?"

"Hey." Yuan Cuixiao nodded, feeling a little ominous in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Go and see."

Yuan Cuixiao threw herself to the side of the fish tank, only to feel a large row of crows appearing in front of her eyes, fluttering their wings and flying over in unison, complementing the alpacas in her heart, composing a sad song with lingering lingering sounds.

Xia Chan poked her head over and saw the two koi carps in the tank with their belly facing up, floating lifelessly in the water, she couldn't help covering her eyes, and let out a scream of "ah".

Chunliu asked in shock: "Why did this fish die too?!"

Yuan Cuixiao said dejectedly, "How would I know?"

Shen Zhongyuan reached out to pick up the purple sand brush next to the fish tank to wash, picked up some leftovers, sniffed it close to the tip of his nose, and sighed: "This is fried Yuanmai. It is not easy for fish to digest. How much did you invest? Stretched them to death."

"It's just all of a sudden." Yuan Cuixiao felt aggrieved, "It's a living thing after all, and I don't know if I eat too much."

Shen Zhongyuan couldn't help but laugh: "Yuan wheat is mostly used for bird food. Although koi have mixed feeding habits, they can't stand you feeding like this."

Xia Chan pointed at Yuan Cuixiao tremblingly and said, "Little lady, you...you have confused the fish food and bird food in the four cabinets, right?"

Yuan Cuixiao suddenly realized: No wonder the parrot refused to eat when he was fed in the morning.

Little Hui... Bird Ancestor... you are alright...

Yuan Cuixiao looked towards the window in panic, but saw the bird's cage was empty.In an instant, I experienced the feeling of a thunderbolt.

Shen Zhongyuan approached to take down the birdcage, flipped the hinge twice with his fingers, and said helplessly: "The door is not bolted, it must have flown."

Yuan Cuixiao stammered: "This bird, bird... Xiaohui is too...too smart, and can open the latch, but the fish... the fish is too stupid, eating it to death by itself. Both sides are even ...It would be nice to be uniform."

"The latch is outside, and the bird is in the cage. How can you open it?" Xia Chan said embarrassingly, "Little lady, could it be that you forgot to latch after feeding?"

You girl, if you don't tell the truth, you will die... Yuan Cuixiao looked around the crowd with a guilty conscience, "hehe" said with a dry laugh: "Your little lady, do I seem to be such a foolish person?"

The eyes of the three of them cast their gazes on her in unison, and their expressions clearly said: Like, so similar...

Birds fly, fish die, grass withers, watching the moon become rounder day by day, and the return date of the King of Xiangyang is approaching, Yuan Cuixiao becomes more and more restless.In the dead of night, she would hug Miss Meow and sit on the porch and sigh.

Chunliu came over with a plate of pine nuts, handed it to her and said: "Little lady only had half a bowl of rice at night, it's been so long, let's have some snacks as a cushion."

Yuan Cuixiao let out a "hmm", stretched out her hand and picked up a small one, swallowed most of it tastelessly, and stuffed the rest into the cat's mouth.

Chunliu looked at her and said, "It's getting late, and it's time for the little lady to settle down."

Yuan Cuixiao stroked Miss Meow's long hair: "No hurry, I'll watch the moon for a while."

Chunliu looked at the night: "The moon has gone down."

"Uh." Yuan Cuixiao looked up, "Then watch the stars for a while."

"Little lady..." Chunliu hesitated to speak.

"Come watch it with me." Yuan Cuixiao dragged her to sit down.

Chun Liu sighed, patted the back of her hand and said, "Go and rest, the prince will be back tomorrow."

"Ah?" Upon hearing the bad news, Yuan Cuixiao opened her mouth wide in surprise, unable to close it for a long time, before saying, "Back... are you back?"

"Yes." Chunliu nodded, "The servant girl will leave for the Han River tomorrow morning, so I'm here to bid farewell to the young lady."

Yuan Cuixiao hugged her arm, and hummed weakly: "You just left me and ran away. Can you take me up?"

Chunliu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Where did the little lady go, it's not like the servant girl won't come back."

Yuan Cuixiao said with a sad face: "You are coming back, but when you come back, I don't know if you will see me or not."

"Stop thinking about it." Chun Liu pulled her up, "My lord has always been generous to the people in the mansion, and will not do anything to you."

Extending the head is a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife.The day is set, and the hanging heart is let go.At this time, Yuan Cuixiao, on the contrary, gave birth to a boldness that was just waiting to be executed.Sweep away the remaining few pine nuts like wind and clouds, go back to the house, cover your head and sleep.

When she was about to wake up, someone suddenly lifted her quilt, Yuan Cuixiao shivered and opened her eyes, facing Xia Chan with an anxious expression.

"Get up! The lord is back home!" Xia Chan sat her down as if folding the quilt, and turned to get a change of clothes in the cage.

Yuan Cuixiao howled twice, closed her eyes, and lay flat again.

"Stop barking! An ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law." Xia Chan turned her back to the bed, casually turned over two dresses and threw them to the place where the noise came from.

Yuan Cuixiao's eyes darkened, and she said in a muffled voice through her clothes, "Where are you going?"

"Let's go to the front hall." Xia Chan went to the dressing table and took the mirrored wooden comb, turned her head and saw Yuan Cuixiao, who was still in the shape of a corpse, and couldn't help but get angry, "Is it possible that the little lady is going to lie here and follow her?" Did the prince explain how to take care of Gu Sanbao? You are not afraid that the prince will get angry and carry you out to bury you."

Chunliu also said that the king of Xiangyang was magnanimous, and that such a tragic thing to be buried with him was done by a magnanimous person... Yuan Cuixiao got up weakly: "I'm afraid."

Just after washing and grooming, there was a message from a servant that Zhao Jue came to the garden.

Yuan Cuixiao cheered up, and together with Xia Chan, went to the Chuihua Gate to meet her.

Not long after, Zhao Jue came to the courtyard, waving his folding fan lightly. He was still wearing the usual Futou blouse, with a leisurely expression on his face.

Yuan Cuixiao's heart was terrified, and she hurriedly got down to Fu: "My daughter welcomes the foster father back. The foster father is well, and the foster father will last forever."

"Hmm." Zhao Jue took her hand, looked it up and down, and frowned, "It's almost noon, why is my hand still so cold? She also lost weight, isn't she sick?"

Unsatisfactory food, sleepless nights.It's a big heart problem, and it's not all thanks to you... Yuan Cuixiao couldn't say anything, "Haha" smiled bitterly twice, and stared at her toes: "Thank you foster father for your concern, my daughter is fine."

"It's fine if nothing happens." Zhao Jue led her forward, and asked with a smile, "What about the things my father entrusted you to take care of before he left, how are you doing now?"

Yuan Cuixiao shivered, and replied falteringly: "No, it's not very good..."

Zhao Jue stopped in his tracks, his smile froze on his lips, he stared at her like a torch and said, "What do you mean?"

"Father, calm down!" Yuan Cuixiao said with a sad face, "Daughter didn't mean it."

Zhao Jue raised his face and said, "Let me ask you, where is Guanyinlian now?"

"A few days ago the sun was too...too strong, and Guanyin lotus was too...too delicate..." Yuan Cuixiao secretly glanced at Zhao Jue's face, and gestured, "After only a short while, it faded away. .”

Zhao Jue snorted coldly, shook off her hand and said, "Where's the koi?"

Yuan Cuixiao timidly pointed to the pomegranate tree in the courtyard, and whispered: "Buried...buried there."

"You!" Zhao Jue turned blue with anger, "Is Xiao Hui still here?"

"Yes! Yes!" Yuan Cuixiao nodded repeatedly, took two steps back and said, "But it's not in the cage now."

Zhao Jue was furious: "Fly? You let it go?!"

Yuan Cuixiao said urgently: "My daughter dreamed about her adoptive mother two days ago, and her old man told me that Xiao Hui was kept in a cage all day long, and she was very pitiful, so she asked me to release it. After thinking about it, my daughter didn't dare to disobey her old man's wishes. , and did so.”

Zhao Jue laughed back angrily: "It's all dead, why are you still alive?"

Yuan Cuixiao bit her head and said: "Daughter dare not live, daughter must be filial to her foster father in order to repay your kindness of reinvention."

"Filial piety?" Zhao Jue pointed at her with a folding fan, "Are you trying to piss off father?"

Yuan Cuixiao waved her hands again and again: "How can there be? Misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."

Zhao Jue approached her and said, "Do you think you should be punished?"

Yuan Cuixiao nodded silently.

Zhao Jue thought for a while and said, "Xiao Hui is gone, so I will punish you to copy the mantra of rebirth. One hundred times, you will not be allowed to eat or sleep until you finish writing."

Last time, I almost lost my hand writing the [-] chapters on women’s training. This time, I have to copy the mantra of passing away a hundred times, without eating or sleeping. Cuixiao mournfully said: "In the eyes of foster father, my daughter is not as good as a bird."

Zhao Jue looked at the pomegranate tree in the courtyard: "There are koi, add a hundred times."

Yuan Cuixiao was dumbfounded, and murmured: "Not as good as a fish..."

Zhao Jue tapped on the handle of the fan: "Drip Guanyin, add another hundred times."

"Hey, not even a blade of grass..." In desperation, Yuan Cuixiao seemed to have seen gods and Buddhas all over the sky beckoning to her.
