"Miss, just now came from the front yard to spread the word, and the city lord has returned. The girl said

"I'll take a look. Xingrou hurried out of the house

As soon as I approached the window, I heard a conversation inside before I could knock on the door.

"City Lord, what can Mr. Yantian do?" the butler asked

"No, you give the order to go down and gather all the medical orders of Yunyuan City, medical officers, everyone will be stationed in Xinghua Village tomorrow, and you must try your best to control it" Leng Yue said coldly

"Yes, city lord, the old slave has retreated. The housekeeper said that, and came out of the room, Xingrou hid aside, and the housekeeper walked away before she walked into the house.

Seeing that Leng Yue was depressed, he asked softly, "Brother, what's wrong?"

"Miss Xingrou, you're here, it's fine, just a little tired. Leng Yue didn't look up, but replied lightly.

Seeing Leng Yue like this, Xingrou thought that it was because there was no solution to the plague, and after a day of traveling, he should not have eaten, how could he make his brother relax, after thinking about it, he said: "Brother, you rest first, I have a surprise for you, wait for me" After that, Xingrou ran to the kitchen.

Leng Yue only felt tired, ignored it, clenched her fist and hammered her head, leaned back on the chair and rested for a while.

Xingrou was in the kitchen, turning left and right, holding her chin with her hand: "Do something!

A girl came in response, "Miss, is there anything that needs to be done by the slave?"

"You city lords, what do you like to eat?" asked Xingrou with a wink of eyes

"Miss Hui, the slave maid has just entered the house, and I only know that the life of the city lord has been served by the housekeeper since he was a child, until now. The girl said cautiously

"Go and bring the butler, be soft, and don't make a noise to the lord of the city. Xingrou said

"Yes," the girl trotted all the way to the housekeeper.

- Half an hour later.

"Miss, the old slave is the housekeeper in the house, and his name is Leng Fu. I wonder what the young lady commands?" asked the butler as he raised his hand and bowed his head.

"Steward Leng, you are an elder, you don't have to give me such a big courtesy, you take the liberty of calling you here, do you want to ask the city lord what he likes to eat? I heard that the girls said that the city lord has been taking care of you since he was a child. Xingrou picked up the butler and said gently

"Miss, the city lord eats a lot of vegetarian food on weekdays, and if you want to say what you like to eat, it should be shredded chicken noodles. The butler replied

"Shredded chicken noodles?"

"Yes, miss, this noodle was created by the city lord's mother when she was alive, and when the lady was alive, she often made it for the city lord to eat, and since the lady passed away, the city lord has not eaten it. The butler was a little sad.

"Do you know how, can you tell me?"

"The old slave has seen Madame do it, so let's try it. ”

"Okay, as he spoke, he picked up the knife, butler, what do you need?" Xingrou said with a smile on her face.

"Two taels of chicken breast, shredded, tiger pepper, green onion, ginger, garlic, one penny each, chopped, two tomatoes, sliced. Heat the oil in a pot, introduce it in turn, add some salt, stir-fry and set aside. After the noodles are cut, cook them in hot water, then salvage them, soak them in cold water, wait for the noodles to be cold, and stir them in a bowl with the ingredients they just prepared. The housekeeper carefully guided Xingrou beside him.

Xingrou was very attentive, and said as she did it, "Butler, please tell me more interesting stories and habits about the city lord in your spare time." I'm going to pay attention. Xingrou said

Seeing that this girl was so attentive, the housekeeper thought that he had a deep affection for the city lord? Perhaps the city lord's age should have been married a long time ago, this girl was kind-hearted and so enthusiastic, if it could be promoted, it would also be a good thing. Said respectfully: "What does Miss want to know, Leng Fu must know everything." ”

After a while, the noodles were ready, Xingrou let the girls and the housekeeper taste them, and they were full of praise, so they took the noodles and went to the cold moon room.

When he walked to the door, he saw Leng Yue's eyes closed, so he knocked on the door: "Brother"

Leng Yue heard a knock on the door, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that it was Xingrou, "Come in, why haven't you rested yet?"

"Didn't you say it, I'll surprise you!" walked up to Leng Yue with his face.

"I've been out for a day, my brother is hungry, try it!"

Leng Yue never expected that the surprise that Xingrou said was this bowl of noodles. Looking down, it's... This is the cold noodles with shredded chicken that his mother used to make for him when he was alive. Some of the eyes were red.

"Miss Xingrou, are you?" Leng Yue hesitated, a little unable to believe her eyes.

"I asked the housekeeper and said that you like to eat, so I'll try to make it, how do you taste it?" Xingrou smiled, her eyes narrowed into a curved crescent.

Leng Yue picked up the chopsticks, picked up the noodles and put them in her mouth, the taste was similar to what her mother made, and a feeling of longing came to her heart.

"This side... It's delicious, thank you, Miss Xingrou" Leng Yue's voice sounded a little choked.

Xingrou sat beside her distressedly, looking directly at Leng Yue, "Brother, Xingrou will always be with you." ”

"Well, my brother will accompany you too!" Leng Yue said firmly.

Xingrou nodded with a smile, thinking in her heart what Leng Yue had experienced in the past three years, and what had happened when she was a child, why she had never heard him mention it before, she must investigate it carefully, and she couldn't let Leng Yue spend the rest of her life alone with pain and these thoughts. After all, there are not many days, and there are fewer and fewer days to accompany him, and before leaving, I must let him let go of the past, so that I can rest assured. Xingrou secretly said with determination: "Brother, have a good rest, I'll go back to the room first." ”

Leng Yue looked at Xingrou's back, grateful and a little moved. I don't know why, when I see Xingrou, I always think of Xinghai. Maybe Xingrou is like Xinghai, always giving warmth and hope when the cold moon needs it most.

Xinghai, have you seen it, if you are still here, you and this girl will definitely be able to become friends, now that there is a plague in the city, is it really because I am bent on going my own way? Leng Yue fell into deep thought.

At this moment, inside the garden

When Xingrou returned to the room, she always felt uneasy, she couldn't wait for a moment, she had to know as much as possible as soon as possible what Leng Yue had experienced.

"Come on, go and ask Leng Fu Butler immediately" Xingrou sat at the table and said worriedly.

"Yes, miss," the girl hurriedly walked to the inner room where the housekeeper lived.

The butler heard Xingrou's urgent call, and trotted all the way to the garden.

"Miss, why are you in such a hurry?" asked the butler in a low voice.

"Don't convene the housekeeper, please sit down first, call you late at night, I'm sorry, please tell me in detail about some things. Xingrou said politely

"Miss, you say"

"What did the city lord go through when he was young?What happened?Why did his parents leave?What happened to him in the past three years?But his personality has always been cold and silent?Or..."Xing Rou asked a series of questions.

When the housekeeper heard this, he saw that this girl wanted to understand the city lord so much, so he said bluntly: "Miss, don't worry, this is a long story." The lord of the city is not an indifferent and silent man, he was lively and active when he was young, diligent and studious, and the gentleman who taught him to read was praised and praised, and the lord of the city was very talented. It's very likable. I remember that year, the lord of the city was playing in the back garden and accidentally fell into the pond, and the lady jumped into the pond in order to save the lord of the city, regardless of her own safety. At that time, it was late autumn, the water was biting, and the wife was already weak and tolerant of the cold, and her body did not improve, and she coughed all day long. Later, an assassin suddenly appeared in the house, and his wife was accidentally assassinated in order to protect the city lord, and it was still raining heavily that day, lightning and thunder, and since then, the city lord has not said much, nor has he seen his joys, sorrows, and sorrows. The old city lord was worried every day, missing his wife, so he often went to the current Yuncui Mountain, and heard that there were immortals, every time he was alone, the old slave had never seen it with his own eyes, and the old city lord passed away before half a year. With that, he took a sip of water

Xingrou poured tea for the housekeeper, and continued to listen to the housekeeper say: "There are a lot of things, and the old slave doesn't know much about it, but if you want to say that in the past three years, I still know a little." I wonder if the girl knows the name Xinghai?"

"I heard my brother mention it, and the girls in the house also said something roughly. Xingrou replied

"Xinghai was originally the sworn brother of the city lord, but because of the mutiny in the city, he also died to save the city lord. After Xinghai died, the city lord ordered someone to be buried on the opposite Yuncui Mountain, and he stayed there every day, drunk and unconscious. Don't ask about trivial matters in the city, just stay in Yuncui Mountain. Sad all day long, for half a year. Suddenly, one day, when I returned to the house, I was full of energy and smiles, like a different person. When he returned home, he announced that the city was going to hold a lantern festival, and the old slave thought that time might have diluted the sadness, until two years ago, that night, I patrolled at night. Looking at the city lord's house, there was white smoke, thinking that it was water, so I quickly knocked on the door, no one answered inside, so I knocked open the door, and saw the city lord lying on the ground, spitting blood, his clothes were soaked, and there was a paper case in front of the bed, which clearly wrote the art of reincarnation. ”

Speaking of this, the butler hesitated for a moment with tears in his eyes and looked at Xingrou. got up and knelt down and said, "The old slave knows that the young lady is kind, maybe only you can restore the city lord to his original state." I am old, and I will have to rely on Miss to take care of the city lord in the days to come, and Miss Wang promises that what the old slave says today should not be passed on to others, including the city lord. ”

"Steward Leng, get up, get up, don't worry, I, Xingrou, have a breath of air, and I will protect the city lord" Xingrou hurriedly helped the housekeeper

The housekeeper wiped his tears and said: "After I helped up the city lord, I was about to call someone for help, but the city lord pressed my hand, his eyes were red, and his fierce eyes said to me, don't let the third person know about this matter, otherwise you will not be spared." Since that time, I have learned that the city lord has always been obsessed with Xinghai's death, and in the past two years, he has tried forbidden techniques at all costs, wanting to resurrect Xinghai. Miss. You must stop the city lord, people can't be resurrected after death, and you are afraid that the sky will anger and people will be resentful if you change your life against the sky. ”

After Xingrou heard this, tears flowed uncontrollably, the source of all this was herself? I didn't know what to do for a while, let the housekeeper leave first, and just sat there, these three years, I have always thought that the cold moon is like a mirror of death, safe and stable, happy and worry-free, why? What is it? What else do I don't know, this night, it is really difficult.
