It was snowing in the depths of winter and the cold wind was biting. Yun Chuxue was lying on the ground in her wedding dress. Her vision was a little blurry. She tried hard to open her eyes, just to understand.

She was born into the Yun family, a wealthy family, and her father was one of the six ministers in charge of the Ministry of War.

The young lady of the Yun family was supposed to be a noble girl. But she was not. She was just an accident. She was born to her father, Yun Shangde, after a drunken affair with the happy girl in his family.

Today is her wedding day. She thought her life would have a new beginning, but unexpectedly it was the end!

"Bitch, even if you want to marry Jiulang, go to hell!"

Looking at the sole of the shoe falling on his face, Yun Chuxue could not move and could only let others trample on her.

"The poison has already spread. It's useless even if Mei Shijiu comes here now. Let's go. This is the Mei Mansion after all. If we are found out, we will be in trouble." The man who spoke was the one who just broke in and drank her poisoned wine.

.

"Who cares about her life and death? What is she? If that bitch Yun Chuqin hadn't sent her to Jiulang's bed, could Jiulang marry her? Originally, it was me, Yun Chuqi, who should marry Jiulang today... Yun Chuqin

If I can't marry Jiulang, then I will ruin my good deeds!"

Yun Chuqi held the dying Yun Chuxue one by one.

"She will die soon. If you still want to marry Mei Shijiu, don't cause any trouble at this time and leave!"

The man's voice was obviously a bit louder.

Only then did Yun Chu give up the chess game. The man did not forget to tidy up before leaving, creating the illusion that he had committed suicide by taking poison.

No matter how unwilling she was, Yun Chuxue was helpless at this time. The four words "powerless" summed up her seventeen years of life. She thought that her ordinary life ended in such a useless way.

When she closed her eyes, she thought to herself that if there was an afterlife, she would never let herself live as humble as dust, and she would definitely make those who harmed her pay the price.

Maybe God heard her voice and finally took pity on her.

Let her... come back to life.

When she opened her eyes again, she went back to when she was ten years old.

The familiar wooden bed, the familiar tattered quilts, and everything familiar, everything she once wanted to get rid of, now made her extremely attached to it.

"Cough~"

I forced myself to stand up, feeling out of breath from the smoke in the room.

In fact, she woke up for a long time, unable to believe that this was true, as if she had had a long, long dream, in which she had lived a miserable and useless life.

"Why is it so cold today? We are unlucky to be sent to serve such a master. The other girls' courtyards are full of silver charcoal. We don't even have black charcoal, so we only gave them a few kitchen charcoal... It smoked the whole house.

It’s smoke.”

"Okay, stop talking. Miss Six is ​​also a poor person. I don't know if she can survive this disease. I have told Aunt Yun several times, but I haven't asked the doctor to come and take a look. I'm afraid she can't survive it.

There hasn’t been any movement for a while, let’s go in and take a look.”

"Miss? What kind of young lady is she? Yes, you pity her and you go in and take a look. I won't go in. Don't be sick anymore. I don't know what to do with this breath. It's better to die than live like this!"

The harsh words made Yun Chuxue, who dragged her sick body to the door, smile.

She remembered that this Juan'er had committed an offense in another courtyard and was punished to serve here. There was a lack of food and clothing here, not to mention oil and water, and she would be looked down upon by other servants when she went out. It was normal to expect her to die.

"Juan'er, Miss Six is ​​also a young lady in the mansion. If she really can't resist, we won't be able to serve other masters anymore. The mansion will be sold out by then. Don't talk about it. Let's go in and take a look.

.”

The one who is still awake is called Tao'er, and she went to get the charcoal in the house.

After Tao'er finished speaking, she ignored Juan'er and lifted up the worn cotton curtain to take a look.

As soon as the cotton door curtain was opened, Taoer screamed in fright and took a step back.

Looking again, I saw Yun Chuxue holding the door, half leaning and half leaning on her, staring at her.

His face was white and bloodless, his cheeks were so thin and sunken, and his already big eyes were even bigger. He looked very scary at the moment.

"Miss Liuxiao!"

Tao'er swallowed her saliva and called out cautiously.

There was a crack in the cotton door curtain, and the cold wind poured in, making Yun Chuxue shiver.

"Come in... put out the charcoal in the room, and open the window... for a while."

Yun Chuxue only has one year to live at this time!

Try your best to live!

She remembered that although she survived the cold, it left her with many illnesses.

"…yes!"

Tao'er was obviously stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses and went in to do as she was told.

In fact, apart from being unpopular and unpleasant for them to follow, this master is also quite good. He rarely orders them around like this, and he does everything by himself.

"Miss Sixth is still sick. You can't stand the wind coming in. You should go in and lie down quickly."

Juan'er glanced at Yun Chuxue and said lukewarmly, Tao'er's words still had some effect. No matter how bad it is here, it is better than selling it to the house, and who knows where it will be sold.

He said that the young lady was still ill, but she stood motionless and did not serve her.

Tao'er put out the charcoal and opened a window, knowing that Yun Chuxue might have been choked.

"Miss Sixth, let me help you lie down on the bed."

After Tao'er finished her work, she saw Yun Chuxue still leaning against the door, so she thought for a moment and stepped forward to support her.

At the age of ten, he was not tall due to malnutrition since he was a child. He was so thin and sickly that he looked like he could be blown away by a gust of wind.

"Go... get some water, help me... comb my hair, clean my face and change... into dry clothes."

She remembered that it was the New Year's Eve when she caught the cold, and just now she heard the sound of bamboo cannons in a trance. The sound of bamboo cannons could only be heard on festival days.

"Miss Sixth...do you want...?"

She is so sick, what is she going to do?

Usually, Miss Six doesn't bother to call them for these things, she does it herself, but now it may be because she is ill.

One thing Juan'er said is right. No one in this mansion regards the Sixth Miss as their master. The family just assigns her and Juan'er to serve here out of concern for their face, saying that they are allowed to serve here.

Serving Miss Six, in fact, no one cares about them at all.

There are more than a dozen Miss Yun Mansion in total. No matter how bad the other ladies are, they still have a mother to protect them. Unlike the Sixth Miss, her biological mother was from a humble background and left after giving birth. In such a complicated aristocratic family, how can anyone

It has been a long time to live till now.

"Tao'er?"

Yun Chuxue raised her eyes and glanced over. If she hadn't had the strength to speak at this moment, she would have done it herself.

The way she is now is half sick and half... hungry!

"Miss Sixth... I'm afraid there will be no hot water now. We don't have a small stove and we can't cook it."

Tao'er said a little embarrassed, but it wasn't that she didn't want to go.

"It's okay, you...go help me get some well water."

Well water is warm in winter and cool in summer, so it won't be too cold even in the coldest months of winter.

Tao'er hesitated for a moment and then nodded, perhaps because she looked pitifully at Yun Chuxue.

"If you don't have the title of young lady, it's quite decent to order people, teh!"

Juaner raised her waist, taunted him in front of his face, turned around and left, she didn't want to be cold here.

Yun Chuxue ignored it and ignored it completely. She would never feel inferior and sad because of unimportant people like before.

"Sixth Miss, the water is here, I tried it, it's okay, it's not very cold."

Tao'er was quite efficient in her work. After a while, she fetched a bucket of water and put some in a basin to wipe Yun Chuxue's face.

There wasn't even a bronze mirror in the room, and Yun Chuxue didn't want to look at it. She knew exactly what she looked like now.

"Sixth Miss...are you going to...the front? In fact, someone from the front has...passed the message, saying that Sixth Miss is sick, so there is no need to go and salute."

On New Year's Day, according to the rules, the younger members of the family have to kowtow to the elders in the family and say good wishes.

In ten years, she had been there once or twice before she was five years old, and that was when Aunt Xi was here.

Speaking of her survival, we have to talk about Aunt Xi. Her mother died after giving birth to her. Aunt Xi was not favored and had no children. She was moved by compassion and raised her. Although Aunt Xi was not favored, she was still alive.

, but she belonged to the old lady, so she had the opportunity to be called young lady. When she was five years old, Aunt Xi also died, and she was completely forgotten.

Perhaps because she had appeared in front of the old lady, and everyone in the house knew that there was such a sixth lady, the eldest lady was too lazy to bother with her, so she just let her live in confusion until now.

"My elders take pity on me for being ill, but I cannot help but know the etiquette. On this New Year's Day, I should pay homage to my elders."

On this New Year's Day, when she looks like this, in full view of everyone, the lady in charge will ask the doctor to take a look at her for the sake of her virtuous reputation.

No matter how bad it is, you can still eat by mouth.

What does a person who has died once care about face? Nothing is more real than living well.

Moreover, she wanted to take this opportunity to meet someone who might be able to change her current situation.
