0605 Girl in the laundry late at night

After entering the capital, I found that all kinds of streets and alleys were intertwined, and I couldn't even make out the direction, how could I figure out where the palace was and where Yehua lived? Moreover, at this time, people were already asleep, and if they wanted to find someone to sneak in the original spirit, they had to go to their homes to find it.

When they passed a small courtyard in the middle of nowhere, they heard the sound of water coming from inside, followed by the sound of someone rubbing their clothes vigorously.

It's so cold, and it's so late, there are still people washing clothes, Wangying and Hongfeng looked at each other, and immediately ran up the courtyard wall, and looked, there was a girl in her early twenties in the yard who was scrubbing her clothes hard, and in a bamboo basket next to her, there were still many unwashed clothes, and the clothes in the bamboo basket were bright in color and luxurious in texture, and they exuded gorgeous brilliance even in the night.

And the clothes on the girl's body were very ordinary, a skirt with flowers on a blue background, covered with a vest made of animal skins, her face was red from the cold, and her hands were even more red and swollen, but she didn't seem to take all this to heart, her hands and feet rubbed hard, but there seemed to be a faint smile on her cheeks that were ravaged by the cold, she seemed to enjoy this kind of labor, and did not take the hard work to heart.

With a squeak, a door opened, and I saw an old woman walking out with an oil lamp, and as soon as she came out, a cold wind blew, almost blowing out the oil lamp in her hand.

"Mi Li, aren't you sleeping? If you can't finish this work, you can save it for tomorrow, this is your fourth job today. ”

"Grandma, it's okay, I must wash these clothes now, and I will hand them over to Mama Gui after dawn, I begged Mama Gui for a long time, and she only washed these clothes for me in the face of her brother, you know, the clothes in the palace are too expensive, and they are generally not handed over to people outside to wash, but if I wash these clothes very cleanly, Mama Gui will definitely rest assured that the clothes in the palace will be handed over to me to wash in the future, so that I will have a fixed income." ”

Mi Li said, smiling and brushing the hair on the side of her cheek with her hand, "Grandma, you can go in and rest, I'll wash clothes here while waiting for my brother to come back." ”

When the old woman heard this, she didn't say anything more, and after glancing at the rice grains lovingly, she turned and walked into the house. She knows her granddaughter's character best, as long as it is her granddaughter's decision, no one can persuade her to move at all, she is old, and life is a burden to her grandchildren, so she takes care of herself and doesn't cause trouble to them.

As soon as she heard the palace, Wangying's eyes flashed in the dark night, wasn't this crooked? Since this girl was washing clothes for the palace, she still had to hand over the clothes to Mama Gui, maybe she could find out the news of the night queen.

He was thinking about whether to let Red Maple enter Mi Li's body or enter it himself, when suddenly there was a clear sound of footsteps.

Wangying and Hongfeng shrank their figures at the same time, intending to take a look.

The footsteps seemed to be coming directly towards this small courtyard, and soon, the door of the courtyard was pushed open, and a burly man walked in, with shining eyes, sword eyebrows, and broad forehead, even if he was wearing a simple military uniform, it was difficult to hide the heroic aura exuded from his body.

"Brother, you're finally back, why is it so late today. Mi Li looked up at the man and smiled.

As soon as the man's legs stretched out and his toes hooked, he hooked a small bench not far away, and then sat down next to the rice grain, "Originally, I could have come back early, but the guards received a notice from Yehua that they suspected that a human had broken into our elven country, and it was very likely that it was in the national capital, for the safety of the national capital, the guards implemented a three-shift system, patrolling day and night, I belonged to the second shift, and I came back after the third shift took over......"

When Mi Li heard this, his expression was slightly stunned, "Is there really a human intruder? Are humans very bad, will they hurt us elves?"

The man shook his head, "You ask me, who do I ask?" I'm not like you, I rarely leave the elven country, and I haven't had any contact with humans, but since Yehua is so wary of humans, there must be a reason for him, as a guard in the capital, I naturally take it as my responsibility to protect the capital." ”

After the man finished speaking, he straightened his broad chest, as if to prove to Mi Li: he is a hero who protects the capital!

Mi Li suddenly smiled smartly, ignoring the water in his hand, and grabbed the man's arm, "Brother, you are very familiar with Mama Gui, right? Today she handed over all the clothes in the palace to me to wash, and she also told me that if I wash it cleanly, I will give more clothes back to me to wash in the future, or let me go to the laundry bureau to start work, is this too much of a good thing?"

When the man heard this, his face also showed a look of joy, "Really? It's really great, if that's the case, you won't have to do odd jobs everywhere in the future, I didn't notice it just now, these are really clothes from the palace......"

"I knew that my brother was clumsy, I didn't see it, Mama Gui told me, you can help me send the washed clothes over early tomorrow morning, I know that Mama Gui is asking you for favors, when the time comes, I will go with you, you can help me say good things, maybe I will be able to work in the laundry bureau soon." Mi Li's face flashed with excitement, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment after speaking, and immediately bent down again and continued to wash.

"That's no problem, I'll go back late tomorrow, rice grains, so many clothes, when will you finish washing? The man had rolled up his sleeves and was ready to help.

Mi Li pressed his arm, "Don't, brother, where will you wash your clothes with rough hands?" These clothes from the palace are precious, if you wash them badly, I can't do it well, you just go to sleep, I will finish washing it soon." ”

The man thought about it too, and scratched his head embarrassedly, "Then I'll really go to sleep." ”

Mi Li smiled and waved his hand, "Go, go, I have to get up early tomorrow." ”

Wangying, who was lying on the wall, finally figured it out, this is just a very ordinary family in the capital, there is an old grandmother who lives with her granddaughter, the granddaughter is a very hard-working girl who does odd jobs, what about the grandson, a guard in the capital guard, and this grandson is also very familiar with the people in the laundry bureau, and his sister's job seems to be obtained by his relationship......

In this way, the elder brother seems to have a closer relationship with the royal palace.

Her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, she already had an idea in her heart, she gently pulled Hong Feng's sleeve, lowered her voice and said, "Hong Feng, you will enter that brother's body, and tomorrow you may be able to use his identity to get the news......"
