CHAPTER 8 VIII

Eight

Xu You still remembered that day in the forest, a mother-in-law forced a sachet to Qingyun, so she decided to go to Qingyun's house to see if the sachet was still hidden under her bed. She swaggered out of the flower and wood house, and followed the route she remembered slowly to the courtyard where the people lived.

Qingyun lived in that room, and four people were not in the house because it was daytime. The door was closed, but the window was ajar, so it should be open for ventilation, and Xu You climbed into the house smoothly through this window.

The furnishings in this room are the same as the last time Xu Yu came, there are four small beds in the small room, and there is a cabinet at the head of the bed, and there are scattered girls' things on the cabinet. Xu You was not interested in taking a closer look, so he walked straight to Qingyun's bed, and jumped on it with a kick on his hind legs.

The futon on the bed was not thick, and Xu You quickly lifted the corner of the quilt and approached the bed board to smell it carefully.

The strange scent from my memory is gone! Did Qingyun lose the sachet, or did he already use it? Or is it that after a few days, the fragrance has gradually faded? Xu You cautiously jumped to the side of the bed, lifted his two front legs, and used his nursing strength to lift the bed board.

The bed board did not move.

These thin arms and thin legs really don't matter! Xu You was a little depressed, sat down with his buttocks, and tapped his tail on the bed board with his anger. After knocking for a while, he didn't come up with any way, but he heard the sound of soft footsteps and conversation outside the door, as if he was coming this way, Xu You's heart was sudden, and he quickly pulled his paws to spread the futon back in place, kicked his legs, jumped to the small bed next door, bent his legs, curled up into a ball, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

She had just prepared to make a move when the door opened, and two maids in long blue dresses entered. Immediately, someone noticed the snow on the bed and made a surprised voice, "Ahhh ”

“…… It's a cat. Qingyun said: "How did it get in?" ”

"Why sleep in my bed, it's dirty." The maid scolded angrily, grabbed a broom from behind the door and was about to call, "Dead cat, see how I clean you up." ”

"Don't!" Qingyun had some insight in the end, and hurriedly stopped: "I'm afraid this is the cat of the prince." ”

The maid was so frightened that she almost didn't fall, and stammered, "The world ...... The prince's cat? She exhaled heavily, quickly put the broom aside, and said fearfully: "It's the cat raised by the prince, it scared me to death, fortunately you are here, otherwise, if I hurt the prince's cat, I won't be beaten to death by Mama Cui." ”

"You reckless temperament has to be changed, you come nonsense at every turn, and you don't use your brain to think about it, this cat is white and clean, there is no dust on its body, how can it be a wild cat?" Qingyun stepped forward and gently gave Xu You a smooth hair, and Xu You took the opportunity to pretend to wake up, squinting his eyes and looking at the two of them carefully.

Qingyun is what she has seen, and the other maid has very good eyes, with a round face, eyes and nose are also round, but the skin is a little dark, and she looks a little rustic, not as delicate and white as Qingyun.

The round-faced maid was a simple person, and after knowing that Xu You was a pet raised by the prince, she immediately changed her attitude, and diligently took out a jelly bean from her purse and sent it to Xu You, and whispered flatteringly: "Cat, do you eat candy?" This one is sweet! As he spoke, he licked his mouth, as if he thought of the taste of jelly beans.

Xu Yu didn't move, blinking at her. First, this little jelly bean can't get into her eyes, and second, this little girl seems to be quite reluctant, so don't waste it. So, she stretched out her paw to push the jelly bean away, then withdrew her paw and squatted upright.

"Oh, it doesn't want to." The round-faced maid said with a disappointed face.

"Maybe cats don't like sweets." Qingyun whispered to comfort her, "Cats are not dogs, they can be picky." As she spoke, her eyes swept over her bed, and when she caught a glimpse of the slightly wrinkled sheets, her heart sank suddenly, and her face immediately changed.

All the attention of the round-faced maid was on Xu You, and she didn't notice it, but Xu You saw it.

"Has anyone been in the house?" Qingyun muttered quietly.

The round-faced maid shook her head blankly, "I don't know if Qingxia has come back?" She helps out in the kitchen and is always idle. Oh, I won't tell you-" She suddenly remembered her errand, slapped her head fiercely, quickly turned out two strands of silk thread from the cabinet at the head of her bed, and waved her hand at Qingyun, "Mama Cui is still waiting for me, and it will be time to scold again in a while." With that, he ran away in a hurry.

Qingyun took a closer look in the room with a calm face, didn't find anything unusual, thought about it, and still went out with Xu Yu in his arms. It's just that when she went out, she deliberately plucked a hair from her head and carefully stuffed it into the crack of the door before leaving.

Xu You followed her to the flower and wood room, the two mothers-in-law were still there, and when she saw Qingyun coming in with a cat, she came over to see the excitement with a strange face.

"This cat is not afraid of people." One of the pock-faced mother-in-law said, her eyes flickered, her eyes wandered, Xu You recognized her as the mother-in-law who had undecent eyes before, and she was a little wary in her heart, and looked at her coldly, her blue round eyes were deep and cold, and she saw that the mother-in-law was cold in her heart, turned her face unnaturally, and whispered to another mother-in-law: "I really don't understand how anyone can love to raise cats, that look is evil, and it scares people to death." ”

"I'm afraid that you have a ghost in your heart, I think the cat is very beautiful."

Xu You was not interested in taking care of them, so he stretched out his legs and jumped down from Qingyun's arms, and walked around the flower and wood house carefully.

Qingyun is just a maid who serves flowers and trees, and the only way to do it is through these potted flowers and trees. Ahh

Xu You didn't have time to think about it, turned around and ran towards Liyuan.

Zhao Cheng entered the palace with only Cui Yu and a maid, and the rest of the people stayed in the mansion. On the side of Liyuan, it is still Xue Fei watching the garden. She has a soft temperament, and the maids in the garden are not afraid of her, taking advantage of Cuiyu's absence, they nest together in groups of three and five to chat.

Seeing Xu You come back, the maids didn't care, glanced at her and continued to speak. Xu You quickly entered Zhao Chengjin's bedroom, found the newly sent pots of camellias, picked up the soil in the pots and sniffed them carefully, but didn't find any problems after all.

In the end, no one dared to attack Zhao Chengjin! Xu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Since he didn't come for Zhao Chengjin, Xu You put his mind at ease, but he was inevitably a little curious, and he was idle left and right, so he simply went to the house to find out where the sachet was sent.

She quickly went to the Xuanning Hall where Princess Rui was located to check it out, and after making sure that she was okay, she went to the Plum Garden to see a few young ladies in the house. I didn't want to enter the gate of the plum garden and was seen by a few little maids, pointing at her and screaming, while rushing to complain to the second lady Zhao Anran.

The second lady Zhao Anran is from Concubine Ningshu, three years older than the prince, although she is a concubine, but because she looks like Lord Rui, she is lively and outgoing, and she is favored by King Rui, and she is more decent than the two sisters. It's just that no matter how favored she is, she can't compare to the son and eldest lady born by Princess Rui, and she has no part in entering the palace every once in a while to ask the Queen Mother for peace, for this, Zhao Anran has always been angry.

Zhao Anran instinctively rejected everything related to the prince and the eldest lady Yanran, as soon as he heard that the prince's cat had come to the plum garden, he was immediately annoyed, and immediately ordered his subordinates hatefully: "What is the noise, it's just a brute, hurry up and beat me up, it's best to kill me." As he spoke, he got up angrily and rushed out of the room, commanding his subordinates to beat the cat with a penny.

Xu You could understand people's words, and when he saw that it was not good, he quickly ran away, climbed all the way to the roof along the wall, and jumped away in a puff of smoke.

Why is the little girl so fierce now, shouting and killing as soon as she meets, and she will have it when she grows up? Xu You finally escaped from the plum garden, only to feel that his legs were weak, and he sat on the ground and gasped.

Because of the experience of being "hunted down", she was much more cautious when she went to Li Yuan again, first observed the enemy situation on the roof, and saw Concubine Ning Shu and the maid sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, after thinking about it, she didn't go down. Even her daughter is already so powerful, not to mention that she is a mother, Xu You does not doubt that Zhao Anran's rejection of Princess Rui and her children comes from Concubine Ningshu's words and deeds.

Since Xiao Shizi and Princess Rui have nothing to do, Xu You decided not to meddle anymore, otherwise, it is really possible to die before leaving the school. It would be too cost-effective to put your life on the line for the sake of curiosity.

In other words, where did her original sense of justice, which was full of support for justice and hoeing the strong and helping the weak, go? Could it be that if you become a cat, your mood will also change?

At noon, the small kitchen made fresh mandarin fish, steamed, sprinkled with fresh green onions, and Xu You was very satisfied. After eating, she walked around the yard twice to digest her food, and then went to the garden to prepare for a nap.

The locust tree in the woods by the wall grew on the edge of the alley, nesting on it, and it could cover the whole alley at a glance, and if the carriage of the palace came back, she would be the first to find it.

The general curled up his body, and Xu You heard a sobbing cry nearby, the voice was very low, immature, like a child. Xu You's heart softened suddenly, she couldn't see the child being wronged, let alone crying. So she immediately got up and followed the direction from which the voice came, and after a short walk, she saw the little boy hiding behind the tree and secretly wiping his tears.

Yo, it's an acquaintance!

Isn't this the little ghost she met in the kitchen that day stealing things to eat, could it be that she was beaten by the fifth master again?

Xu Youxian squatted on the tree and carefully observed through the dense branches and leaves, the little boy was still wearing the old clothes he wore when they met last time, but his body was crumpled and his back was stained with a lot of soil, which was not as neat and clean as the last time he saw it. The child was born well, although he was not as beautiful and good-looking as Zhao Chengjin, but he was still beautiful, but it was a pity that the small face on the left side of his face was swollen and tall, and there were a few red marks on his head, which seemed to have been slapped by someone.

This...... Who are these people, such a young child can do it! Xu You felt angry and distressed, slipped down the tree and jumped in front of the little boy, and shouted at him with some worry.

The child didn't seem to expect that a cat would suddenly jump out, startled, and when he recognized Xu You, he immediately became happy, his red and swollen little face was bright, and the tears in his eyes were immediately forced back, but there were inevitably two crystal tears hanging on his eyelashes, which looked particularly pitiful, "Meow, it's you." ”

Meow Meow –

Xu You suddenly had some indigestion, the literary and artistic name of Xuetuan was enough to make her uncomfortable, and now there is actually a "meow meow", which is not as good as wosi candy.
