Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Mother Has Changed

Coming back from the dead and alive for only one day is not enough to make the people in the palace trust and accept him. If you want to live in this time and space, if you don't want to be a savage and live a life of isolation, you must have friends and relatives.

Yuexi, who has been lonely since he was a child, seems to have jumped out of a crack in the stone, and he is tired of loneliness.

The children in the orphanage are like the ebb and flow of the tide, coming and going, and she will be reluctant to leave every time a familiar partner leaves, so even if she grows up and leaves there, Yue Xi will still go back to see it from time to time.

She has long regarded the orphanage where she grew up as her home. In her opinion, the warm place is what makes her nostalgic the most.

Therefore, knowing that these people do not regard themselves as family members, Yue Xi will still rely on the past involuntarily.

Yes...... Bathing? Switching ancient and modern words in her head, she stuttered a little when she spoke.

When she was drinking porridge in the dining room just now, she had already noticed that there was a lot of firewood burning, but in fact there were no large pieces, just some dead branches and small shrubs. These things look like a lot, but they are not resistant to burn, and it takes a lot of money to take a shower.

Yun Hua and Xia Ran really showed embarrassed faces.

There are more than a dozen people in the palace, and they can't make up enough to find out everyone's private money, but they can't make up enough for 500 Wen, where is this money enough to buy firewood? Besides, who is willing to take out that little life-saving money to buy you firewood for boiling water and bathing?

The weather was so cold that they just gritted their teeth and carried each other together, and they didn't even have a charcoal basin for heating. Now the master actually asked to take a bath, which is really embarrassing.

The palace is built on a hill, and it is full of trees inside and out, and the shade is cool and pleasant in summer. But because of this, I don't know which emperor Lao Tzu was full of food, and he was idle here to fart, holding the delicate beauty in his arms, looking at the lush trees on the mountain, as soon as his lips touched his lower lips, he sealed all the trees on this canopy mountain, called 'Cool General'!

Now the dense growth of the 'tree generals' of Yishan has long since become a large dense forest, but no one dares to think about them.

No matter how cold and poor the people in the palace are, they don't dare to cut down the tree general who has been awarded the imperial title!

Therefore, I can only pick some branches on the mountain to burn, and every time I cook rice, I have to deal with it. Even Gonggong Gao made a few wooden bowls as if he had committed a mortal crime, and he was sneaky for fear of being denounced.

There is a shop at the foot of the mountain that specializes in selling firewood, and the firewood in the store is transported from afar, which is more expensive than the firewood in the capital, where can they use it.

It's okay, I'll just ask. If you take a bath in this weather, if you don't have a brazier to bake, you will stay in our hall that is ventilated on all sides, and it will be carried out and buried tomorrow morning! The doors and windows of the Tingtao Hall are very tall, almost occupying a wall. The fine lattices are pasted on the windows, and the windows are pasted with an equally finely woven curtain.

As soon as you stand close to the door, you can feel the cold wind swishing.

If the villa was built to escape the heat, all the buildings were built for the comfort of living in the summer, and there was no concern about the consequences of staying here in the winter. Therefore, the windows of the main hall are equipped with anti-mosquito curtains.

And now that it has been a long time, the once fine new window screens have long been rotten and dilapidated after being exposed to the wind and sun and rain, and they are hanging dirtily on the window lattices, which are unsightly to look at!

Master! Yunhua said loudly: Don't say that...... Sounds weird and scary.

At this time, the sun has turned west, it is already evening, Tingtao Hall is already wide and high, and it will look gloomy when there is sunshine, let alone this hour, and they have just walked to the small courtyard where the coffin is parked, no wonder Yunhua and Xia Ran are afraid when they hear her talk.

That's not the way to go. Yue Xi was tired after a little exercise, so she moved her two soft and trembling legs to the edge of the bed and sat down heavily.

When the two women who had just made the bed saw her sit down, they hurriedly jumped under the bed, and in a panic they stood on the black stone floor without even putting on their shoes.

Yue Xi's eyes looked around, and he said: Hurry up and put on your shoes, the ground is cold.

Waiting for the two of them to put on their shoes, Yue Xi stood up again: Let's go back to Jingzhongyuan again. The small case above was lifted down a few times, and there was not even a table, which was too inconvenient.

Yun Hua and Xia Ran glanced at each other, but did not dare to speak. I thought of a piece in my heart: the master can really toss people!

The case was not too heavy, and the three of them carried it back to the Tingtao Hall with reluctantly Jing Zhongyuan, and Yun Hua and Xia Ran's tired legs began to tremble, and they were panting for breath.

Yue Xi raised his butt and sat sideways on the desk, dangling one leg and saying beautifully: Finally there is a place to sit...... It's pretty sturdy!

After tossing for a long time, it turned out that a long case was used as a stool, and the two personal girls shook their heads together.

At night, after drinking another meal of porridge in the dining room, Yue Xi still didn't dare to eat too much, and still didn't know the state of hunger.

She rubbed her stomach as if it was a bit of 'content' and began to think deeply: I'm afraid I'll have to go to the toilet later......

After dinner, everyone said a few random words and dispersed in twos and threes. When they came out of the dining room door, they all glanced meaningfully at Yue Xi, who was sitting by the stove in a daze.

Yue Xi continued to concentrate on his stomach in a daze, and did not react to everyone's eyes.

Empress. Xilai stood two paces away from her and screamed tentatively.

Seeing that Yue Xi didn't move, Xilai walked up to Yue Xi and reminded: The concubines and ladies were looking at you when they left just now.

Yue Xi, who had been sitting quietly and still, suddenly stretched out his hand, scooped up the little bald scoop with a very fast movement, put it on his lap and opened his mouth to bite: How can you just drink porridge without meat, let's eat you!

Cluck...... Cluck...... Xilai smiled happily, knowing that Yue Xi was laughing with her, the little girl was not afraid, and only kept pushing Yue Xi who arched around her neck with her hand: Niangniang, Niangniang! The slaves and maids have not bathed for half a year, and the slaves and maids are also stinky...... You can eat...... Ha ha!

Hehe! Yue Xi laughed and stopped moving, lowered his head and looked at Xilai: I smelled it just now, you are indeed a stinky child, so don't think I stink anymore in the future! We smell alike, okay!

Good! Stinking...... Cast...... Xilai nodded vigorously, but she couldn't say the word that Niangniang said, and only remembered two words.

Burst! There was a soft noise outside the dining room.

Yue Xi's eyes flashed, and his eyes rolled without looking up.

Empress. Xilai exclaimed.

Do you still call me a mother? Keep biting! Yue Xi lowered his head and showed a mouthful of Bai Sensen's good teeth, and he was about to bite again.

Don't call it, the slave doesn't call you a mother! Xilai immediately begged for mercy.

Master. Aunt Yunhua and Aunt Xia Ran both called her like this, Xilai whispered and said close to Yue Xi's ear: They were all looking at you when they left.

Hehe. Yue Xi raised his eyebrows and smiled: They were afraid that I would run away, so they all looked at me.

Why are you afraid of running away? I wonder who would dare to go down the mountain on such a dark day?

Because Lao Tzu bragged about the cowhide and said that the future grain was wrapped on me...... Yue Xi stood up and led Xilai out of the dining room: Where do you live? I'll send you back.

Master. Xilai looked up at her timidly. Yue Xi only felt that the little hand pulling his fingers was wet and exerting force.

Can the slave sleep with you? Xilai spoke in a small voice, and there was an expectant look in his eyes.

Hi Lai. Don't pester the master, the master will come to pick you up. Gao Gonggong's gentle voice sounded, and his body slowly walked out of the dark shadow next to him.

Oh. Xilai responded dejectedly, but he didn't let go of Yue Xi's hand.

Stay in my house tonight. Yue Xi nodded at Gonggong Gao, grabbed the little hand in his palm and walked straight to Tingtao Palace.

Yuexi, this child sleeps at night and is honest, with her eyes closed on the bed, you still let her go back with Grandpa Gao. Jiang Lan, who was standing in the shadow of the gable, did not chase after him, and only said to the backs of Yue Xi and Xilai.

Xilai grabbed one of Yue Xi's fingers and continued to walk forward, but his head turned over, looking at the two people behind him, as if he was struggling.

Yue Xi didn't look back, she didn't need to look, she only used her ears to hear Jiang Lan's deliberately suppressed panic.

That woman doesn't want Xilai to be too close to her, right?

Turning his head sideways and glancing at Xilai, Yue Xi pondered that if she changed her mind again, she would let go and let her go back with her father-in-law.

The child's thoughts were simple, her little face only hesitated for a moment before returning to normal, and her left hand tightly grabbed one of Yue Xi's fingers, and her calf walked quickly, as if she was afraid that Yue Xi would leave her.

Yue Xi pursed his lips and smiled.

She pushed open the door of the Tingtao Hall and said: It's okay to rest early, Lan Lan, if you can't sleep at night, come to my side, although the little girl is not big, the meat is tender, and I can't eat it alone...... After speaking, he closed the door with a bang, and left the two people who were shocked to hear it in the moonlight for a long time and did not come back to their senses.

You listen, you listen! Why wouldn't she be serious? Which sentence makes people panic when they hear it! Jiang Lan pointed to the closed door of the Tingtao Hall and muttered quietly.

Before she died, she didn't speak, and she held the queen's shelf all day long. This time she came back as if she had changed as a different person, opening her mouth and closing her mouth without saying a word!

Gonggong Gao lowered his hand and stared at the two wide wooden doors, and said carefully: Niangniang has changed, and the old slave has become better and more humane.

As soon as the words came out, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly changed his words: The old slave said that the mother has become humane.
