Before waiting for the aisle, looking from a distance, there were already many people coming to the high gate building of Hou Yi's grandson's house.

Xiao Xiangzi gave Yue Ling'er a look, Yue Ling'er understood, and the two of them hurried their steps, and were about to enter the tall building with the surging flow of people.

Yue Ling'er's eyes were poisonous, and she whispered to Xiao Xiangzi, "See, we've been here before." ”

Xiao Xiangzi said in a low voice, "Don't speak, in order to avoid trouble, you have to make fewer troubles, it's better to be more interesting." ”

Yue Ling'er stopped talking, followed Xiao Xiangzi, and the two of them walked into the tall gatehouse with the flow of people one after the other, and came to the wide courtyard.

Looking at the commotion of the crowd, Yue Ling'er thought in her heart, against the prestige of Hou Yi's grandson's family, she must be heavily checked, if she can't apply for the job, how can it come to naught, and if she has an idea, she can't help but say, "I don't know if I'm lucky or not, it's okay to apply, if I fail, I won't be able to live." "Blah coo.

Not only Yue Ling'er is like this, but most people have the same heart.

The voices of the people were boiling, and after three times of Luo Sheng, there was a person who was a domestic servant and said loudly, "Just because the Hou Yi grandson's family lacks manpower, we must recruit people with both talent and virtue to be qualified for the position of musicians, and we are looking forward to hiring caring people to herd animals and birds. The hiring fee is generous, it's a monthly salary, that's 10,000 spirit coins."

In an uproar, in the hustle and bustle, the ring ringed bells, as someone slowly rose a bright bead into the air, under the background of the pearl, it suddenly shined brightly. It's as bright as day.

The fragrance wafted in, everyone only felt that the figure in front of them flashed, and when they looked at it, they saw a noble lady who exuded body fragrance, with an extraordinary appearance, which was stunning, surrounded by the mother-in-law of the family, like the stars holding the moon. After seeing the dress, appearance and temperament, Yue Ling'er couldn't help but whisper to Xiao Xiangzi after taking a closer look, "Uncle, have you seen it, look, who is coming?"

Xiao Xiangzi said, "You and I both know this person." ”

The crowd fluctuated again.

The servant said loudly, "Be quiet, is there anyone with insight? ”

Only one voice could be heard, "For money, I am willing to dare to try." ”

Everyone looked around and saw a middle-aged man, who looked very ordinary, and was moving the flow of people with his hands. Rushing to that look, he came prepared, and the onlookers hurriedly dodged a road.

The man did not squint, but came to the empty field as if no one was around, and bowed deeply to the noble lady, "I have seen the lady below, and what kind of music do you want to hear, tell me." ”

"From ancient times to the present, famous songs abound, as long as they are melodious and melodious, smooth and beautiful, no matter what their origin, how to present their talents, this lady will treat them equally." Priority is given to talented candidates. "A faint smile, white teeth and red, very brilliant, generous, in the eyes of everyone, to give people a sense of amiability, is the kind of person who is approachable.

The man smiled, "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, and to be ugly." As he spoke, he took out a hole flute from his bosom and whimpered and played.

The noble lady listened attentively and savored it, and there was nothing surprising about it.

The man stopped playing and said, "I hope to taste it." ”

The woman smiled and commented, "The sound is beautiful, not bad, but there are also fly in the ointment, you can't do what you want, and I hope you can practice diligently in the future." "Good words.

The man was well-known in the local area. When the noble lady said this, she had to slip away.

The servant smiled, "If you don't see it, only those who are talented will be hired." ”

Seeing that the applicant was disappointed and left, they were all thinking, wouldn't it be shameful to lose face in front of everyone, but it was also interesting, and no one spoke for a while. , some whispered in private, "The noble lady has high taste, and it is difficult to enter the ordinary stream, and she can't get into her eyes." Don't be embarrassed.

Some whispered, "Grazing for her family, the temper of those two brutal princesses can be irritable." But you have to be careful, in case you can't manage it, if you lose the strange birds and beasts, you can't be beaten by them, and you will be injured at least and killed at worst. How much caution you have to be with the tiger skin, it is better to be cautious. ”

After muttering quietly, there was a sudden silence.

The noble lady waited quietly for a while, but no one came to take the exam. Then he looked around and said, "I didn't expect that." It's really disappointing. Looking forward to it, when the lady found that Xiao Xiangzi was also mixed in the crowd of onlookers, the lady smiled faintly and said loudly to Xiao Xiangzi; "It's really fate, I never thought that I would meet in this way, do you want to engage in the musician industry, if you are interested, you might as well come to perform." ”

Xiao Xiangzi smiled, "That's what I mean, if you can pass the test, it's the best, give it a try." stepped forward and bowed deeply to the noble lady and said, "Xiao Xiangzi came to pay a visit, and he was ugly. He took out the hole flute from his bosom and put it on his lips, stirred his jade fingers and played it, whimpering, and his gestures were just right, and he immediately won the favor of the noble lady.

Xiao Xiangzi skillfully used the technique, as the melody became more and more beautiful, chirping, there were a lot of birds flying from all directions, there were many kinds, with all kinds of feathers on the body, colorful, very beautiful.

The noble lady is not the first time to see Xiao Xiangzi's ability, there is a faint smile on her face, in the eyes of others, it seems that Xiao Xiangzi's arrival seems to be in her expectation,

Xiao Xiangzi played intently, and under the interpretation of his passion, he not only brought in all kinds of birds, but also heard the song of the phoenix. As the voice looked, a phoenix flew in.

The feathers are gorgeous, and the feathers are fluttering, until the phoenix flies down to the plane tree, and the birds rush to worship, and the phoenix sings and the birds whistle, and at the same time they are happy.

Seeing this, the noble lady's face suddenly leaked with envy, and said, "It's really unexpected, I actually summoned a phoenix." is a song of a hundred birds and a phoenix, and the talent of the son makes Mrs. Ben envious, and admires the five-body throw. ”

Just now looking up at the phoenix flying from a distance, the onlookers seemed to be suddenly stupid, until the lady praised Xiao Xiangzi's talent, and after the evaluation, the onlookers came back to their senses and said, "Okay, it's amazing." Childe, this rhyme can be called a natural sound, I really want to feast my ears, can you play a few songs?"

Xiao Xiangzi was very helpless, shook his head and said, "It's not that Xiao Xiangzi shirked, it's that the body is not suitable, I hope you will forgive me, let's do it another day." He went limp as he spoke.

It was not a sudden accident, but the success in the application was completely based on the spiritual support, which was hard support, and the good results were achieved so far, but now it is different, because there is no food in the stomach, and when the energy is exhausted, there is no energy, and I can only sit on the ground and gasp for breath.

Yue Ling'er hurriedly ran over and cried loudly, "Uncle, uncle, are you faint from hunger?"

Xiao Xiangzi smiled bitterly, "Don't get in the way, don't be afraid, it's not easy to survive until now, is Yue Ling'er hungry?"

Yue Ling'er cried, "Hungry, uncle is really hungry and faint, don't you really remember?" I haven't had anything to eat for several days, now that I have passed the customs, I will never worry about food in the future." Yue Ling'er is happy for you, uncle is so lucky, in comparison, Yue Ling'er is probably not so lucky. It's good that you're not dead," Yue Ling'er dusted her tears with her sleeves. Hunger leads to weak speech.

Xiao Xiangzi comforted weakly, "Don't be discouraged, even if you are not hired, if Xiao Xiangzi has food and drink, he will share some with Yue Ling'er." ”

Yue Ling'er said weakly, "Then thank your uncle first." ”

Xiao Xiangzi said, "Why do you call Xiao Xiangzi uncle again, a brother for a while, an uncle for a while, for seniority, just call Xiao Xiangzi a brother in the future." "Weak.

"That's it, big brother," Yue Ling'er's eyes flashed with tears, and she was about to say something.

The lady suddenly asked, "Little friend, it's really rare, are you here to take the exam?"

Yue Ling'er smiled and nodded, "I really want to graze, my eldest brother has talent, Yue Ling'er has no talent, grandma, will Yue Ling'er be hired for this?"

The noble lady smiled and said, "You will be hired, grandma is optimistic about you, at a young age, let's talk about Xiao Xiangzi's collapse, it's really rare, you can still care for the phantom spirit beast, which shows your character, it's really affectionate." I hired. ”

"It's finally settled. I'm so happy. Yue Ling'er said and fainted.

The noble lady said to the courtesy and to the servant, "Bring the two of them into the upper hall quickly, and prepare a table of delicious food." ”

The courtyard and the servants responded, and they helped Xiao Xiangzi and Yue Ling'er to the accommodation of the upper courtyard, and Xiao Xiangzi and Yue Ling'er were both hungry.

At the critical moment, the servant set up the banquet, and when he saw that Xiao Xiangzi and Yue Ling'er were still lying, he pushed them awake and said, "Wake up, wake up, the meal has been arranged." ”

Xiao Xiangzi and Yue Ling'er reluctantly sat up, smelling the rich fragrance and looking around, they saw that the delicacies of the mountains and seas had been placed on the table, and the gold bottles and jade cups were all luxurious.

Seeing that there was food available, Yue Ling'er suddenly came to her senses, dragged Xiao Xiangzi and left, came to the dining table, lifted her chopsticks and gobbled up.

Xiao Xiangzi persuaded, "Slow down, don't choke," Seeing that the master did not come to accompany him, Xiao Xiangzi consciously glanced at the table full of wine and food, and then at the slaves.

A slave said with a smile, "The master has instructed that he is entangled in trivial matters, because of entertainment, and I hope that Xiao Gongzi will forgive me, please drink as you like." As he spoke, he turned around and walked out of the house.

Xiao Xiangzi picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat, only to hear Zhong'er's voice whispering and laughing in his body, "It's really careless, and I don't test poison, if you put poison in food, you won't die."

As soon as the words fell, Xiu'er's voice whispered in Xiao Xiangzi's body again, ""I'm too worried, if it is poisoned, I still need to put it in the food, and I will starve to death, Gongzi Hugh listens to Zhong'er's nonsense, don't be suspicious, eat it quickly!"

Xiao Xiangzi passed the golden bottle, poured the wine, and then lifted the chopsticks and put a mouthful of food in his mouth, ate the food and drank the wine, poured himself and drank it, and ate it with relish.

Yue Ling'er ate in a big gulp, like a whirlwind, and only ate until her belly was round, and then she was willing to give up.

After a full meal, they all put down the dishes and chopsticks.

The two of them looked at each other, looked at each other and smiled, looking at the mess on the table, Xiao Xiangzi was embarrassed.

Yue Ling'er smiled, "It's not a big deal, I'm hungry." ”

"It's a shame to eat like a starving ghost," Xiao Xiangzi was blaming himself, when he suddenly heard someone in the courtyard say, "Xiao Gongzi, Yue Ling'er, have you eaten? If you have eaten, it is convenient for me to go to the bathroom to bathe." ”

Xiao Xiangzi said, "I've already drunk it." After calling Yue Ling'er, they came to the courtyard together, and as far as they could see, there were already two servants waiting there, a man and a woman. The male servant was average-looking, in his forties. The maid was unusually beautiful, and depending on her age, she was no more than thirty years old.

The male servant, seeing that Xiao Xiangzi had already walked out of the room, stepped forward and said with a smile, "I have been waiting here for a long time, please follow Xiao Gongzi to take a bath." ”

The maid beckoned to Yue Ling'er and said, "Little friend, come here, come here, will you go to bathe with your aunt?"

Yue Ling'er smiled and said, "Okay, Yue Ling'er wants to take a bath." Consciously, he looked towards Xiao Xiangzi, and saw that Xiao Xiangzi had already followed the male servant to a house, so Yue Ling'er turned around and looked at the female servant.

The maid smiled slightly, "Come with my aunt." Leading Yue Ling'er to another house one after the other.

The outside of the house is very cool, but as soon as you walk into the house, the heat is blowing in your face, giving people a feeling like a big steamer, Yue Ling'er took a closer look, there is a big wooden barrel in the middle of the ground, and the steaming gas wafts out from the wooden barrel, and a faint layer of fog is formed in the house, which is shrouded in the house.

Seeing the big wooden barrel, Yue Ling'er's heart moved, and said secretly, "I have suffered losses in this regard before, is it really as simple as taking a bath? Will it be like the Asura mother-in-law, who wants to use this to kill Yue Ling'er, or mutate Yue Ling'er into an insect or something?"

The maid smiled and said, "What are you thinking about? It is important to take a bath, or it will be dirty, how can you go to see grandma, my aunt will not like to look at it, and the master will blame it, and she will get a good job." ”

Helpless, Yue Ling'er had to loosen the clothes on her body, stepped into the wooden barrel and sat down, when Yue Ling'er was very cautious, trying to hold the water and tease herself. Touching his own here, touching his own there, and seeing that there was no abnormal phenomenon, Yue Ling'er dispelled his worries and took a bath happily.

Seeing that Yue Ling'er was extremely excited, the maid happily took the bath towel and wiped it on Yue Ling'er's body, and under the protection, seeing that Yue Ling'er had already stepped out of the wooden barrel, she opened a small package, took out a set of temporary new clothes from it and said to Yue Ling'er, "My wife once said in advance, saying that after the bath, you must let Yue Ling'er change it." To give. took the clothes and handed them over, seeing that Yue Ling'er refused to accept them, the maid said again, "Madame has always been clean and accustomed to it, not only to restrain herself, but also to warn others that the old clothes are good, and if they are dirty on the body, Madame will not be used to it." ”

After saying this, Yue Ling'er had to put on new clothes.

The maid took out the Ayatiao headdress and the like, and personally combed Yue Ling'er's makeup

After taking a bath and dressing up, he said to Yue Ling'er, "Go with my aunt, wait to see Madame, be obedient, only in this way can you please the woman, Madame will be very happy to see you so cute." ”

Yue Ling'er smiled and said, "Thanks for the reminder." Talking about nagging, he pushed the door out, and unconsciously came to the hall, and looked up, and saw that the noble lady was already sitting on a chair, and was casually tasting tea.

Xiao Xiangzi and a servant stood in front of the noble lady with their hands down, respectful, and it was obvious that the scene had arrived early.

Yue Ling'er stepped in front of the noble lady and said with a smile, "Grandma is good, big brother is good." ”

Xiao Xiangzi smiled and didn't say anything.

The noble lady smiled and said, "The little mouth is so sweet, grandma called you because she has something to say, it is related to grazing, and the grazing are all strange birds and beasts, so you must take good care of them, if you don't take care of them well, if you lose or damage them, you will be asked and punished severely." Consciously staring at Yue Ling'er with his eyes, he commanded a slave again: Bring the Lingteng whip and bring the Lingling silk lock.

The slave fetched the Lingteng whip and the Lingling silk lock.

Yue Ling'er took it. ，

The noble lady asked, "It's all for grazing, can you know how to use it?" Seeing Le Ling'er shaking her head, the noble lady said, "The Lingteng whip can be called a treasure, no matter how far the herded species runs, as long as the Lingteng whip is swung out, it can be hit back out of thin air, there is thunder rolling, and there are electric fires coming head-on, and strange birds and beasts must not obediently return to their original places when they see it." As for the coiling silk lock, this thing seems to be non-existent, and it is specially used for walking strange birds and beasts. No matter how far you run, as long as you pull hard, the strange birds and beasts will obediently return to you. ”

Yue Ling'er took the treasures, and from then on, Yue Ling'er grazed those strange birds and beasts with all her heart, but she was also safe.

Xiao Xiangzi became a musician, until one day, the noble lady asked Yue Ling'er to graze the Nine Shadow Sparrows, and Yue Ling'er secretly cried out bitterly.
