Chapter 352 Chapter 352 Cure

The people Shen Qianchen cared about were Shen Zhi and Shen Yunmu. She didn't want Chu Lingxiao and other Chu family members to disturb their mother and son's future lives. The more chaotic the Chu family is, the better. They are busy fighting in the nest, and naturally they have no mind to think about other things.

Her thoughts quickly turned to Gu Jue. Gu Jue went to the military camp today. Counting the time, he should be back soon.

Gu Jue has been recuperating carefully for more than two months. His health is getting better day by day. Starting from March, he began to run to the military camp. Shen Qianchen would occasionally follow him. At other times, he would either stay in the palace or go to the military camp. Shen Zhi and Shen Yunmu visited Shen Zhi.

After five days of decoration, the Shen residence with the new plaque looked presentable. The residences of Shen Zhi and Shen Yunmu, mother and son, were also decorated, with only some customized items left. .

Shen Yunmu was very satisfied with his study. The way to show off his hair was that every time Shen Qianchen came, he would let her go to his study. The two siblings would play backgammon for a while; Shen Yunmu would show her the calligraphy he had recently practiced; After a while, he showed off a bookshelf of books given to him by Mu Guogong and his son...

Neither Shen Zhi nor Shen Qianchen cared about the bad things happening in the Chu family at all.

On the sixth day of March, Shen Wan and Gu Zhiyan's family returned from the hot spring village in Jizhou, so Shen Qianchen began to treat Gu Zhiyan's absence disorder again.

Gu Zhiyan's illness is a heart disease, and heart disease requires a heart medicine doctor. According to Shen Qianchen's idea, she advocated revisiting her old place as this "heart medicine", but Gu Zhiyan is too young, and the little girl At only eight years old, Shen Qianchen was also afraid that her medicine would be too strong and that it would be too much.

After discussing with Shen Wan, she changed to a more tactful approach.

On this day, Shen Wan brought Gu Zhiyan to Shen's residence, and under the guidance of the maid, they went to the west wing.

"Qiniang, do you think this tank of goldfish looks good?"

Shen Wan pointed to a fish tank on the table. This fish tank was the size of a basin. There were seven or eight golden goldfish in the fish tank. The goldfish were playing, chasing, or blowing bubbles in the water...

Gu Zhiyan likes goldfish, and she often feeds the fish at home. She happily grabs handfuls of fish food from the box and throws it into the fish tank.

The goldfish in the water came smelling the fragrance, waving their fan-like fish tails and swam towards the fish food. There were shallow ripples on the clear water, and the water plants also swayed.

Gu Zhiyan stared at the goldfish eating with gusto, couldn't help but smile, her eyes sparkling.

The little girl was silent in her own world, completely unaware that Shen Yuan and the nurse quietly left the wing, their steps silent.

There wasn't much fish food in the box, and it was empty after a while.

"Mother." Gu Zhiyan turned her head and subconsciously looked for Shen Wan, but found that the wing was empty, the door was tightly closed, and there was no light.

Shen Wan disappeared, and Gu Zhiyan was the only one left in the small wing.

"Mom!" Gu Zhiyan called again, her voice raised by three points, but no one answered.

All the doors and windows in the wing were closed, and the light in the room was a little dark, as if dusk had fallen early.

Gu Zhiyan looked at the closed door in front of her, feeling even more nervous and panicked. The frightening scenes in her memory flashed through her mind like a fleeting glimpse...

It was the same that time, she couldn't find her mother.

She was told she would never return home.

Later, she was locked in a woodshed, and no matter how she shouted, no one paid attention to her.

"Mother! Mother!"

Gu Zhiyan shouted excitedly, each sound louder than the last, with an emotion that was close to collapse in his voice.

Shen Wan, who was hiding in the next room, also heard her daughter's shouts, and her heart was suddenly grabbed.

For Shen Wan, her daughter Gu Zhiyan was everything to her. Every shout from Gu Zhiyan was like stabbing her heart again and again, making her miserable.

All she wanted to do was rush to the next door, hug her daughter tightly, comfort her, caress her, tell her that she was her sweetheart.

However, she only took one step when she saw a green shadow flashing before her eyes. Jiang Yuan stood in front of her, blocking her path.

"Awan," Shen Zhi hurriedly took her sister's hand to comfort her, "You have to believe Sister Chen."

Gu Zhiyan is eight years old. Unless she can hide at home and stay under the protection of her parents for the rest of her life, Shen Wan must cut open the abscess and squeeze out the pus and blood to heal the wound. There is no escape.

Shen Wan pursed her lips and her body was trembling.

It has been more than a year since my daughter was abducted and finally found. Since meeting her niece, she has gradually gotten better, but until now, her daughter must have a light on when she goes to sleep at night, and someone must accompany her, like Now that she is alone in a claustrophobic space, her emotions will get out of control.

Suddenly, the wing next door became quiet.

Shen Wan's heart tightened and she quickly looked through the small hole in the window paper to look next door.

Gu Zhiyan was seen huddled in the corner of the wing, huddled in a ball with his hands on his knees, shivering.

Shen Wan clenched the handkerchief tightly until her fingers turned white.

Gu Zhiyan buried her head on her knees and didn't pay attention to the small hole poked in the window paper, which was no more than the size of a finger.

"Ding bell, jingle bell..."

The sound of bells came from outside, and as it approached this way, the sound of the bells became louder and clearer.

Gu Zhiyan became even more frightened, and kept shrinking towards the wall behind her. Her arms hugged her knees harder, and her body tensed up.

The ringing of the bell stopped at the door, and then the door was pushed open. Gu Zhiyan could see a light coming from the ground, and then a huge shadow appeared at the door, just like in her memory.

"Ding bell, jingle bell..."

The huge shadow was approaching her with the ringing of the bell, and a pair of malicious eyes were staring at her, releasing this gloomy aura.

Gu Zhiyan felt cold in his limbs, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Da, da, da..."

When the other party's shadow enveloped him, the fear in Gu Zhiyan's heart burst out, and he screamed out again crazily. This time it was not calling mother, but a monotonous scream:

"Ah! Ah—"

"Ding bell!" There was another bell sound, accompanied by a loud snort, and a stream of hot air sprayed on Gu Zhiyan's head and ears, followed by a smell of vegetation.

Gu Zhiyan raised his head subconsciously.

A red pony caught her eye. It wore a leather collar with a silver bell around its neck. When the pony tilted its head, the bell made a crisp sound. It had a characteristic look on its face. lively.

Gu Zhiyan forgot to scream for a moment, opened her mouth slightly, and looked at the foal in shock, her face turned pale.

The colt made a "huihui" sound to her and nuzzled her. Gu Zhiyan didn't dare to move, but her body curled up on the ground was obviously relaxed a lot. She looked at the colt curiously and her eyes flickered. Bright.

It's so beautiful, even more beautiful than Brother Mu's pony!

At this time, the direction of the door of the room became dark again, and there was a shadow reflected on the doorway on the ground. Gu Zhiyan shuddered again and slowly looked up.

Shen Qianchen, dressed in a bright red riding uniform, appeared at the door of the room with a bright and sassy smile.

"Sister!" Gu Zhiyan blinked and shouted.

Shen Qianchen smiled with crooked eyes and looked at Gu Zhiyan with a crooked face. He pointed at the red pony and asked, "Qiniang, this pony is for you. It has just turned eight." months.”

On Shen Qianchen's waist was a longan-sized gilded sachet. A light and refreshing fragrance floated out from the sachet, like plums or orchids, and penetrated Gu Zhiyan's nose.

real? Gu Zhiyan blinked his big eyes again.

The fragrance gently soothed her extremely excited emotions. Her originally frantic heart gradually calmed down, but her chest was still rising and falling obviously.

"Did it scare you?" Shen Qianchen asked as he walked towards Gu Zhiyan, "Are you scared?"

Gu Zhiyan shook his head hurriedly, his black and white eyes as clean as a crystal clear stream.

Not afraid, of course not.

Such a cute little pony looks so similar to her sister's red horse named Maple Lu, how could she be afraid?

Shen Qianchen grabbed the colt's reins, touched its slender neck, and said matter-of-factly: "Qiniang, you just scared it."

"..." Gu Zhiyan opened her eyes wide and bit her lower lip with some guilt and uneasiness.

The foal is only eight months old and is still a baby. She screamed so loud just now, which must have scared it. So, will the foal not like her?

Shen Qianchen lowered his voice and said coaxingly: "You scared the foal, should you coax it?"

right! Should! Gu Zhiyan nodded quickly again.

She thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she took out a pine nut candy from her purse.

She climbed up from the ground, put the pine nuts in the palm of her hand, carefully raised it, and brought it to the foal's mouth.

As soon as the little pony smelled the sweet scent, he couldn't wait to bite into the sugar granules. His tongue grazed the palm of Gu Zhiyan's hand. It was hot and itchy, making her laugh uncontrollably.

The laughter suddenly lightened the air.

Shen Qianchen touched the little girl's head, and the fragrance floated on her body.

Gu Zhiyan liked the scent of Shen Qianchen. It was very gentle and warm, which made her feel very comfortable.

"Qiniang, are you afraid of being alone?" Shen Qianchen asked, staring into Gu Zhiyan's eyes.

Gu Zhiyan lowered her head, pursed her lips vigorously, and twisted the fingers of her two hands together. The child's bones were soft, and her fingers were twisted like twists.

Gu Zhiyan didn't say anything, and Shen Qianchen didn't rush her, but handed the reins to Gu Zhiyan's hand.

When the reins were handed over, the colt's eyes followed the reins curiously, looking from Shen Qianchen to Gu Zhiyan, and the bells jingled.

Gu Zhiyan held the reins with one hand and clicked on one of the bells with the other, and the bell rang twice more.

"Ding bell, jingle bell..."

After a while, Gu Zhiyan suddenly whispered: "I'm afraid, I was...captured by bad guys..." Her voice was low, and it was not clear amid the ringing of the bell.

Shen Qianchen was half relieved. As long as Gu Zhiyan was willing to talk about it, it would be a big breakthrough.

Shen Qianchen asked her coaxingly: "Were you scared at that time?"

Gu Zhiyan pushed the silver bell with her finger again, lowered her face, and nodded: "They are very bad, very bad... They locked me up, beat me, and didn't let me eat."

"I'm so scared, so hungry, and my body hurts."

"But no matter how I call, my father and mother don't come..."

"I kept shouting, kept shouting...I screamed until my voice became hoarse..."

“…”

Gu Zhiyan spoke intermittently, talking about whatever came to mind. While speaking, her body began to tremble, and she held the reins tightly with both hands. The fear and despair at that time were still deeply engraved in her young mind.

Shen Qianchen listened to her quietly, without interrupting her or disturbing her. He just waited for her to finish speaking, then leaned over and gently hugged the little girl's slender body, and said with a smile: "Qiniang, it's already..." It’s okay.”

"Someone rescued you. No one can hurt you again in the future. Your father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, your aunt...and me, we will all protect you."

Shen Qianchen said while gently patting Gu Zhiyan's back.

Gu Zhiyan's body trembled violently again, and tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.

At first, she cried silently.

Gradually, she sobbed and cried.

Later, she burst into tears...

Shen Qianchen let Gu Zhiyan cry. Crying was also a way to vent his emotions.

Gu Zhiyan couldn't control her emotions. Thinking of the grievances and fears she felt at that time, she just wanted to cry. It seemed that tears were the only way to vent such emotions.

Several images flashed chaotically in her mind. One moment was her being captured with her mouth covered at the lantern festival the year before last; the next moment she was put in a sack and her mouth was tightly blocked with a brocade handkerchief; One moment she was being whipped in a cold woodshed; the other moment she was locked up alone in the woodshed...

Countless pictures flashed unpredictably, and then settled on Yongdinghou's mansion. She huddled beside the rockery, and then she saw her sister just like today.

A glint of starlight appeared in Gu Zhiyan's chaotic eyes.

She recalled the scene where her father and mother appeared outside the woodshed. At that time, she fainted, and when she woke up, she was in the county prince's palace.

Oh, and they found her!

Even though it was a little slower, even though they made her wait a little longer, they still found her!

Then, the three of them moved out of the Prince's Mansion and lived together as just three of them. They also went out to play together. In that village, they were together every day!

Gu Zhiyan's eyes became brighter again.

The colt shook its head again in boredom, paced restlessly, and the silver bell around its neck rang again.

"He's still young and very playful." Shen Qianchen carefully wiped Gu Zhiyan's tear-stained face with a handkerchief and asked her with a smile, "In two days, I'm going to take Brother Mu for a walk. Ma, Qiniang, do you want to go with me? "

Of course the baby wants to play! Gu Zhiyan nodded quickly: "Yes!"

Shen Qianchen smiled and remembered that Shen Yunmu said that Gu Zhiyan was particularly envious of his little pony.

She took Gu Zhiyan's little hand, shook it, and asked, "Qiniang, let's go find Brother Mu and let him see your little pony, okay?"

"Okay!" Gu Zhiyan nodded again.

Her foal is prettier than Brother Mu's, Brother Mu must be envious!

Thinking about it, Gu Zhiyan pursed her lips and smiled happily, her pupils shining brightly after being washed by tears.

The two cousins ​​held hands and went to the house next door to find Shen Yunmu. The little pony followed behind them, lively and active, and the sound of the horse's hoofbeats was brisk and loud.

After Shen Yunmu moved to this Shen house with Shen Zhi, Gu Jue gave Shen Yunmu a martial arts master as a gift, but Shen Yunmu's house was too small, so Gu Jue sent the Buddha to the west and simply bought the house next door to live in. This martial arts master.

Shen Yunmu was wearing a moon-white outfit and was practicing boxing. He had been practicing this boxing technique for more than a month, and he was doing well. He was very powerful when punching, and his kicks also felt a bit sharp.

Gu Zhiyan looked at Shen Yunmu who was boxing with burning eyes. His eyes seemed to be shining and he couldn't bear to blink.

Shen Qianchen suddenly asked: "Do you want to learn?"

"..." Gu Zhiyan finally came back to his senses and turned to look at Shen Qianchen.

Shen Qianchen smiled slightly and squeezed Gu Zhiyan's soft little hand with one hand: "When you learn Kung Fu, when you meet a bad guy, you can defeat him by yourself."

She clenched her other hand into a fist and waved it in demonstration.

Gu Zhiyan's eyes brightened even more, as if the morning star was reflected in her pupils.

She nodded vigorously and said, "Learn!"

Study, study, study!

Of course you have to learn!

Shen Qianchen rubbed the top of Gu Zhiyan's hair. At this time, the martial arts master also saw Shen Qianchen, walked over, cupped his fists and saluted: "Princess."

As soon as Gu Zhiyan saw the stranger, she shrank subconsciously. Normally, she would have hid behind Shen Qianchen, but today she bravely held the train of Shen Qianchen's skirt and looked down. Moved, not daring to look directly into Master Wu's eyes.

"Master Cao, please work hard and teach one more child." Shen Qianchen smiled and pointed at Gu Zhiyan.

"It's hard work." Gu Zhiyan said like a parrot, his voice as low as a mosquito's moan.

Of course Master Cao agreed, and held his hand with a smile: "Princess, you're welcome, it's just a small matter."

So, Gu Zhiyan ran to stand next to Shen Yunmu, raising her head and chest.

Master Cao walked over and said to her: "Miss Gu, let me teach you the horse stance first."

Master Cao began to teach Gu Zhiyan the horse stance, taking it apart step by step and demonstrating it to her.

Gu Zhiyan also imitated Master Cao's example and began to step forward with stiff movements.

Shen Yunmu also mastered a set of boxing and enthusiastically guided Gu Zhiyan on how to do the horse stance.

Shen Qianchen stood aside, looking at them with a smile, and gave instructions to Amber.

In a moment, Amber brought the sisters Shen Zhi and Shen Wan over.

When the two sisters saw this scene, they were both shocked and looked at each other.

This good little girl has not even started learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, how can she learn to squat on horseback? !

Shen Qianchen could see what they were thinking and said bluntly: "Qiniang does not have a sense of security and is always afraid that others will hurt her." Therefore, she did not dare to stay in the room alone, nor did she dare to face the noisy crowd alone. .

After a pause, she said slowly and meaningfully: "It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others."

This is what the prince taught her in her previous life, and it is something she has experienced deeply in her two lives.

Only when a person is strong enough can he have enough confidence and not be afraid of others.

This truth is obvious. When you find that the object you are afraid of is just an ant, which can be easily crushed to death, will you still be afraid of an ant?

For example, in her previous life, she was afraid of Chu Lingxiao. To her, Chu Lingxiao was like a high mountain and a ferocious beast. But in this life, when she faced Chu Lingxiao again, she found that he was just a piece of paper. It's just a ferocious beast, it will break with one poke.

Shen Qianchen looked at the little girl not far ahead who was striding seriously, with deep eyes and a bright smile.

Shen Zhi: "..."

Shen Wan: "..."

Shen Wan was startled, inexplicably thinking of Gu Jue when he was young from his niece, and a thought came to his mind: Could this be Jin Zhu Zhe Chi?

Shen Qianchen turned to look at Shen Wan and said seriously: "Third Aunt, as long as Qiniang can persevere, let her learn. You and Third Uncle should not interfere with her."

Shen Wan blinked, and then she realized what she was doing, and said loudly and forcefully: "Learn!"

In the Daqi Dynasty, it was rare for girls to learn boxing and kung fu, but to Shen Wan, this was nothing. She wished she could give everything she could to her daughter. As long as her daughter liked it, she could learn anything and practice martial arts. Just practice martial arts!

Shen Wan also noticed the red pony next to her, and took a second look. The pony was playing happily, chewing willow leaves, playing with butterflies, having fun, and approaching its owner to beg. caress.

Shen Qianchen touched the colt's slender neck twice and said with a smile: "This pony was delivered to the palace two days ago. I gave it to Qiniang. It happens that Qiniang can also learn riding and shooting." stand up. "

Shen Wan nodded again: "Learn!"

Anyway, her daughter is no longer the head of the county. She no longer needs to behave herself and can do whatever she wants.

Shen Wan smiled freely and said: "Anyway, my house is on the next street. It will be convenient to come and go in the future. I can accompany Qiniang here every day." She no longer has to worry about the income of the county prince's palace, and every day is idle.

Shen Qianchen smiled sweetly: "Then I will also give Qiniang a pair of bows and arrows."

"I'll make Qiniang a riding outfit." Shen Zhi added jokingly, "Every little girl has to dress beautifully."

Shen Wan was convinced and thought about making more riding outfits for her daughter, changing one outfit every day and not wearing the same outfit for ten days.

The two sisters became interested when they talked about clothes. They chatted about materials and colors for a long time, but Shen Qianchen couldn't talk at all.

After a while, Shen Wan looked at Shen Qianchen again, looking a little worried. She took a deep breath and said, "Sister Chen, Qiniang's illness..."

Shen Qianchen looked at Gu Zhiyan, who was still walking, and smiled: "Don't worry, aunt, the progress today is good, Qiniang's illness is half cured. Qiniang is finally willing to tell me, 'Then It’s a matter of time, but you still have to take your time, haste makes waste.”

Shen Wan breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Shen Qianchen said again: "I will make a prescription later and let her take it for a few more days."

"Usually, it's better not to take her to crowded places, so as not to accidentally stimulate her emotions. Follow her in everything..."

"The most important thing is to take your time."

Shen Qianchen warned her carefully and was impatient. Shen Wan carefully wrote down everything one by one, wishing she could take a pen to record it.

Seeing how nervous Shen Wan was, Shen Qianchen simply asked Hu Bo to write it down and give it to her.

Shen Wan felt relieved. After thinking about it, she said to Shen Zhi: "Sister, I want Qiniang to stay with you for a while."

Shen Zhi raised her eyebrows in confusion.

Shen Wan twisted her pretty eyebrows, not hiding her dislike at all, and said: "After we returned to Beijing, the concubine came here every two days."

"I heard that Prince Jingjun's palace is about to be unable to survive. All the money has been spent, but the emperor is still ill. Up to now, the title has not been obtained, and the concubine is starting to get anxious."

"Their mother and son were reluctant to sell off their property, so they instigated the family members to say that the previous family divisions did not count and that they had to be re-divided."

"Although Prince Li didn't pay attention to them, they are always annoying!"

Shen Wan was not afraid of trouble, nor was she afraid of the concubine, nor was she afraid of others saying she was unfilial. She was only afraid that something would happen to the concubine and her son, which would irritate her precious daughter.

Shen Zhi held her sister's hand and responded softly: "Leave Qiniang to me. Brother Mu will accompany her and take care of her."

Shen Wan said "hmm" and still looked at Gu Zhiyan in the field.

Under the sun, Gu Zhiyan's face was flushed after posing for a while, and fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, but he still persisted.
