The squire was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his eyes were full of energy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

I know...... Those who can have this kind of look are usually practitioners!

I've been impressed by what happened in the house a few times before.

I was silent, my eyes fixed on him.

When I saw similar people, I subconsciously felt a little guarded.

"Someone has something to ask me, can you explain a little more?"

I looked at him puzzled, and then said with a little apology: "I'm sorry, my master took care of me before leaving, and he said to let me wait here." ”

After a pause, I met his gaze and said, "We still have something to do!" ”

"Your master ......"

People were looking at me all the time.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but look into the courtyard behind me.

The courtyard was quiet, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that I was definitely the only one there.

The next moment, his eyes rolled, and as soon as his expression changed, he immediately said to me: "By the way, I met your master when I came on the road." ”

"I almost forgot to tell you."

I frowned and glanced at the attendant, and after thinking about it, I said, "We have another person named Ah Rong." ”

"He went out with Master Wan."

"Both of them...... Have you met them all? ”

I looked back at him, thought for a moment and asked.

"yes, both."

The attendant looked at the forest behind him, then looked back at me and said in a sincere tone, "It's in the courtyard, I met when I came." ”

"It's just that I forgot to mention it just now."

I looked at the squire and asked, "Did they get their tools back?" ”

"Is there still one thing missing, or two," said the attendant, looking at me for a moment, "I heard them talk...... It seems to be asking the female officer to go out and buy it! ”

The squire replied in a fluent tone.

He looked up at the sky and said to me, "I said I was going to come back before dark, and I had to go out." ”

"Master Wan went out to buy tools yesterday, and I have to go out again today......"

I muttered, and said in my heart that I would probably have to go out with Ah Rong this time.

I knew I could go along.

However, I thought of what Master Wan told me that most of the people in the house would follow me when I went out, so I had better dispel this idea.

"Then I won't be able to come back for a while."

I spoke calmly to the squire, who nodded and looked at me again.

"Can you wait for me, I'll be fine right away, I'll come when I go."

The attendant looked at me in surprise and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"My master asked me to put away a few tools, saying that he had to get them ready before he came back," I said with some embarrassment, "I was afraid that if I came back late after a long time of questioning, he would come back before me." ”

"When the time comes, the master will definitely be unhappy when he sees it, and I will definitely have to be scolded!"

The attendant saw me talking with a bitter face, and after thinking about it, he finally agreed.

He stayed at the gate and waited for me.

He stared at me and said, "You need to hurry!" ”

"Soon, soon!"

I walked quickly into the side room in the courtyard, took out the bag of medicinal herbs that Master Wan had boiled medicine from the baggage I had brought with me, and took out a bag to take with me.

Then I took the pen and paper that Yuan Xiu brought me, wrote a few words quickly, put them on the table and pressed them with a tool.

When I went out, I closed the door of the side house tightly.

The whole process took a very short time.

I walked to the door, looked at the waiting attendant and said, "That'...... Please lead the way. ”

I don't know who wants to see me, who wants to ask questions!

...... I followed the attendant through the woods, and did not meet any of the people in the house.

I took another look as I passed the clearing where the carriage was parked.

When I walked out, the attendant was ahead of me, and I took advantage of his unpreparedness to take out a little from the herb bag I was carrying......

When I got out of the forest, I saw several people walking by on the long corridor in the distance, and they all looked very raw.

As in the Sealand Palace, you can guess the identities of the people who walk around the house.

For the people in the house, the clothes on the body are a sign!

It seems to me that the way they walk is exactly the same, they all walk with their heads bowed.

They are still in a hurry, and they rarely look at others even when they pass by.

It's rare for one or two to nod to each other and not stop greeting.

I was a little confused in my heart, remembering the conversation between the palace maids I heard before, and the doubts in my heart were even more.

How do I feel that there is some kind of indescribable atmosphere in the house.

How to describe it?

This feeling is similar to the feeling that something is going to happen when I was in the palace in the past.

In other words, there is a sense that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

I looked down and pondered, wondering if there had been a new change in the war in the Northlands.

The first thing I thought of was the front-line war, although this was in the courtyard of the town of Northland, but the empress lived, and when I saw something abnormal, I immediately had an association.

In my opinion, nothing is more important than war, and the empress at this moment should think the same.

However, in our current situation, it may be difficult to get the latest information, and it is only some news obtained by hearsay in the house.

This has to be heard by chance when the discussant party is unprepared.

It's like I've heard a conversation between two strange palace maids.

When I passed by, I didn't expect to hear their conversation.

I changed my mind that I would have a chance to go to the big kitchen tomorrow morning, and maybe I would hear some reliable news.

The attendant who was walking in front suddenly turned to look at me and said, "Keep up!" ”

I was startled, and quickly agreed, walking a few steps quickly and following him.

My gaze lingered on his back, and I frowned again.

When I followed the attendant through the corridor and passed by the others, they only gave us one more look.

The squire led me on a path that few people traveled, and I found it from the moment I crossed the corridor.

Like the squire who had taken me to the kitchen, they seemed to be familiar with the directions in the house.

I guess that someone will take them to familiarize themselves with the route as soon as they arrive at the house, or as Ah Rong said, there must be a map in the house to look at.

I just didn't get a chance to see it, and I felt like I needed that map!

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

The squire walked directly in front of me and turned to stare at me again.

He started walking down the trail, slowing down slightly.

At this moment, I met his gaze and asked, "Is the place you want to go far from here?" ”

He was stunned for a moment, then looked at me, stopped and said, "It's not far, you can come along." ”

This time, his tone sounded affirmative.

I looked down and thought again, following him.

The small bag of herbs he was carrying was running out by this time.

Fortunately, the destination has arrived!

...... The attendant led me into a very secluded courtyard.

When I walked in, I immediately took a look at my surroundings.

It was a long way from the lively promenade of the house we walked through and the road where there were more people coming and going.

What does that mean? It means that what is happening here, the people in the house may not know.

The attendant pointed to a room in the small courtyard and said, "The people above are waiting over there, and you can go there yourself." ”

I stood in the courtyard, looking at the room in front of me with a puzzled look.

After looking at it for a while, I turned to ask the attendant who had come with me, but the other person was gone.

I stepped forward and walked outside the house, reached out and pushed the door open and walked in.

The curtain divided the room in half, and when I walked inside, I didn't notice anyone inside.

A lazy and careless voice soon sounded in his ears: "You are so bold! ”

I turned to look at the man who suddenly appeared by the door, looked at the clothes he was wearing, and said in a calm tone, "Since you brought me here, there must be a reason for you." ”

"Even if I'm not fooled this time, maybe I'll use another method next time, so it's better to take a look."

...... I made eye contact with him, looked at him later, and said, "Your curiosity is a little stronger, but I ask myself if I don't know you, and I don't have any interests entangled." ”

I paused and continued, "You brought me in...... Even I don't quite understand what you mean. ”

"You are not from the palace, let alone the attendants in the house, to speak...... What is the purpose of your sneaking here? ”

I glanced towards the door, and the corners of my mouth raised, "I didn't expect that the empress's mansion could be entered so easily. ”

"I was transferred from the barracks, what about you......"

...... Yuan Xiu returned to the flower garden, braving the cold wind all the way.

When she arrived at the courtyard, she looked up at the room where her grandfather lived, and there was no movement.

Yuan Xiu took out the letter, hesitated, did not open it directly, and returned to the house where he lived later.

She sat down at the table by the window, and after hesitating again, opened the letter.

The letter is not long, and the meaning is also tactfully written.

But it seems that Xiao Lin is very sure that the young owner of the pharmacy is willing to help arrange it, and the end of the letter also said that he will find an opportunity to thank him, I don't know how Xiao Lin plans to thank him.

Yuan Xiu folded the letter again, and now she was a little embarrassed.

The matter of going to the pharmacy to see a doctor has an eyebrow, and Xiao Lin is sure to see the situation.

Yuan Xiu can see it!

But at the grandfather's level, she felt that she was really not sure about convincing him.

Grandpa is stubborn, and he is simply a person who can't make sense.

Yuan Xiu thought carefully in his heart, how to talk to him for a while, so that he could go out with him tomorrow morning.

When Xiao Lin wrote a letter in the courtyard, he had already made it clear to her.

Kobayashi means...... Since Grandpa was very disgusted with the craftsmen, if he knew about his own help, it might be self-defeating.

Therefore, if you want to use this letter, you have to hide it from your grandfather, so you can only find an excuse to talk to the guy at the pharmacy quietly and pass the letter to you.

Yuan Xiu thought about it in his heart, and couldn't help but hold the letter tightly in the palm of his hand.

When she came to her senses, she hurriedly laid the letter on the table and flattened it.

There was a faint sound of coughing outside, and Yuan Xiu knew that his grandfather should have woken up, so he quickly put away the letter and walked out of the house.

...... Yuan Xiu stood next to the shelf in the conservatory, facing a pot of flowers and plants, reached out with a flower shovel to gently loosen the surrounding soil, and then took a larger pot.

She was ready to move the plant into a larger pot in front of her.

She was as attentive as ever when she was doing things, and she put those worries aside.

As she reached out and began to straighten the flowers and plants, filling the gap around the pot little by little, the door of the conservatory was slowly pushed open.

Yuan Xiu sighed in her heart, knowing that her grandfather must be coming, but she hadn't figured out how to talk to him.

"Ah Xiu, come to me in the house when you're done."

"Okay, I see, Grandpa."

...... When Yuan Xiu walked into the house, she saw her grandfather sitting on a chair in the house, looking at her.

Yuan Xiu stepped forward and shouted at him with a little apprehension.

The gardener's gaze never took off his little granddaughter.

After a while, he looked at Yuan Xiu and said, "Ah Xiu, tomorrow morning I will go out of the house to do some errands on the street, or you can go out with me." ”

Yuan Xiu looked at him in a daze, and only reacted later, realizing what her grandfather had just said, she immediately showed a look of joy.

She looked at the gardener in disbelief, she really didn't expect such a scene.

You must know that you came out of the small courtyard until you were doing things in the greenhouse just now...... Yuan Xiu was in a dilemma.

She never thought about how to convince her grandfather to take her out with her.

I didn't expect it to be now...... It was the gardener himself who solved this problem.

Yuan Xiu looked at the gardener and couldn't hold back her joy and said, "Okay, okay, grandpa, I just want to go out and take a look on the street, great!" ”

The gardener was infected by her emotions and couldn't help but smile: "Ah Xiu, what's this, it's just a trip, see how happy you are!" ”

Yuan Xiu took a step forward, looked at the gardener, and said with a bit of urgency: "Grandpa, you don't know, I've always wanted to go out, and I was about to tell you, but I'm afraid you won't agree." ”

The gardener glanced at her.

Yuan Xiu lowered his head and thought about it seriously, and suddenly thought of the matter that the gardener had mentioned before, and immediately asked, "Grandpa, where are you going when you go out?" How long does it take? ”

"Oh, soon, let's go to the shop in the south of the town."

"I can still walk on the street after finishing my errands," the gardener turned his eyes and sighed, "Ah Xiu, it's my leg, I'm afraid it won't be long to walk." ”

The gardener worries about disappointing his granddaughter.

Yuan Xiu looked at the gardener and asked tentatively: "Grandpa, let's just take a car on the street when we go out." ”
