At the end of the brisk music, I winked at Cui'er and said, "I'll leave later." ”

Cui'er nodded knowingly and added some tea to my cup.

After the pianist finished playing, the end note was still lingering in the room, and he had already gotten up and left.

I watched his back disappear through the small door at the other end of the hall leading to the backyard.

Frowning, I beckoned to the running hall in the store.

"Can this luthier from your teahouse invite him over for a cup of tea?"

When the little guy heard this, he ran to the back and asked the shopkeeper.

Shao leaned, the shopkeeper walked over, and said with a smile on his face: "Childe, the pianist just now played for the last time in the hall today." ”

I asked, a little surprised, "You said it was the last time." ”

"That's right," the shopkeeper said with apology in his eyes: "This pianist has only been in the teahouse for more than half a month, he has a lonely personality, and every time he plays the music, he is more casual. ”

"There are some tunes that are really not suitable for listening here."

My eyes flickered, remembering what I had just seen in the store.

When the pianist played "Wolong Yin", less than half of the place, a small servant went up to stop him.

It seems that he was instructed by the treasurer.

Ploughing has never forgotten the country, who knows that the blood is in the mountains and forests.

How could he find a soulmate in such a place?

Leaving is also the right choice.

Seeing that I was silent in thought, the shopkeeper added, "The violinist has already settled the remuneration in the backyard just now, and left directly." ”

"You want to see him. I'm afraid I can't catch up anymore. ”

"It's okay, it's okay," I said in response to the shopkeeper. "I just saw his superb piano skills on a whim, and I wanted to learn from him."

"Since it's gone, it's a no-brainer."

The shopkeeper said a few words, asked the little guy to send a plate of snacks, and walked away.

Cui'er took a bite of the pine nut and asked, "You want to see the violinist, I'm afraid it's not to learn from the piano." ”

"How so," I glanced at her, and saw that her cheeks were puffed up by a large mouthful of pine nuts. I couldn't help but laugh.

"You haven't seen me play. How to say something like that. ”

"Slave. Just guessed. Cui'er said with a grin.

"You haven't talked about the business of our trip yet."

"It's not just about drinking tea." Cui'er pushed the plate to my side for a few minutes and said, "This cake is well done, you can taste it." “

I shook my head. lowered his voice and said, "I thought I would come to the teahouse and get some news." “

"Now it seems that this trip is a bit redundant, and I didn't hear what I want to know."

Cui'er looked at me strangely and said, "If you want to tell the news, haven't the people and horses on the Lord passed it on?" “

"The slave and maid listened to the steward, and the master in the southwest region had already sent someone over a few days ago."

I was startled, grabbed Cui'er's hand and said, "Why have you never told me this news?" “

Cui'er broke free of my hand, looked at me with a smile and said, "Actually, it's the person in charge who won't let you sù sue you." “

"Why?" I looked at her in bewilderment.

"Hey. Saying that you are smart is beyond the reach of men, and saying that you are confused is also confusing so that people don't know what to say. Cui'er said with a sly look in her eyes, "Don't you understand the Lord's arrangement?" “

"The Lord means that you should always find out the situation at your destination before you act, so as to ensure your safety."

I was silent, watching Cui'er speechless.

"You're just a slave and you've never said it." Cui'er covered her mouth and said, "Besides, those who are sent will definitely not show up to get in the way until you need them." ”

I was silent, and after a while, I looked up at Cui'er and said, "Could it be that the steward in the garden informed my senior brother of what happened a few days ago?" ”

Otherwise, I can't think of a reason why he deliberately arranged for people to go to the southwest to pave the road first.

Cui'er avoided my gaze and looked at me with a little red on her face.

I still didn't speak, I looked at her directly, and my eyes didn't look at her for a moment.

Cui'er's face turned even redder, she patted my hand and said, "Okay, I'll sue you." ”

"Although you opened the slaves and maids that day, but the garden is the garden of the Lord, do you think that if there is a movement, the steward behind will really know nothing?"

"Didn't they all drink with Wenzong and Jinhua that day?"

"Hey, drinking is drinking, there are always people who are paying attention in secret."

"The original meaning of the Lord to arrange for you to come to our garden was because of the terrain." Cui'er said slowly.

"Listening to what you say, could it be that my senior brother has more than one property in Qibei?" I was even more surprised.

"yes." Cui'er said, "There are some things that slaves and maids shouldn't say, but since you brought slaves and maids with you, it is unlikely that you will return to the garden in the future." ”

Cui'er smiled and said, "Compared to the master, maybe the only master of the slave in the future will be you." ”

Didn't I already tear up your deed of sale? I thought to myself, and then sighed helplessly, maybe that was just wishful thinking on my part.

Ever since she became my maid, Cui'er has taken on her responsibilities.

Especially when I had to take her with me on this trip to the southwest, it seems that although the deed of sale has been destroyed, in her heart, even on my senior brother's side, she can't break off my relationship with me all at once.

There was another invisible contract that held her and me together like a cover.

Thinking of this, I immediately understood that in fact, the most thorough way to set Cui'er free was to leave her there alone after arriving in the southwest.

If you can help her find a way to make a living.

After thinking about it for a while, I retracted my thoughts and looked at Cui'er and asked, "My senior brother's property in Qibei is more than this, so where are the other distributions, do you know?" ”

Cui'er shook her head and said, "The slave doesn't know. ”

"Listen to the slave and maid," Cui'er poured the tea from the porcelain cup in front of me. He looked at me with sparkling eyes and said, "Before you came, the Lord consulted with the steward. ”

"It was arranged in this garden because of the terrain."

"In the middle of this garden is a lake. There is only one passage connecting to the shore of the lake. ”

"After all, there are only a few masters who can easily cross the lake to reach the island where the Lake Center Pavilion is located."

"So the Lord saw this, and thought that this garden is more suitable for you to live in."

"One is quiet, and the other is that it is easier to detect any disturbances, and only the connected road is safer."

"On that day, someone visited the garden at night, and another group of people made a move, so such a big movement will definitely not be hidden from the Lord's men."

"You think they're all drinking in the backyard of the garden, but the news has already arrived."

"Besides, if they can't find out, they won't be used by the Lord."

With that, Cui'er grabbed the cake on the table and took a bite.

"Cui'er." I watched her expression. Whispered. "Actually, you're always keeping an eye on the movements of the Lake Center Pavilion, aren't you?"

"That night, I guess. When the news spreads, you have a share. I said in a calm tone.

Cui'er looked at me with some weakness and said, "You must know that no matter what the people in the garden do, you are in Qibei for a day, and our duty is to ensure your safety." ”

"If you go for this purpose, it won't hurt you, don't worry." Cui'er smiled.

I looked at her speechlessly.

I think I've broken free from some of my control, but in fact, the other control has long been in the hands of others.

Yun Chu is like that, isn't my senior brother Tianfang the same person?

I took a long breath, and I wanted to ask Cui'er a question. But now it seems that there is not much need to ask that question.

I secretly said in my heart: "Cui'er, are you really just a little maid in the garden?" ”

I looked at her a little distractedly, and my lips moved, but I didn't make a sound.

Cui'er looked up at me and asked, "Why do you look at the slave and maid so much, what else do you want to know, you ask, the slave and maid answer, okay?" ”

"No need, if you can say it, you will naturally tell me, there are some things that you can't say, wouldn't it make you embarrassed if I asked." I said lightly as I played with the empty cup of tea.

After thinking about it, there is still a question that just arises.

My gaze fell back on Cui'er.

I looked at her and asked, "There's something I don't understand. ”

"As you said, that night, the people who came moved with another group of people in the garden, and according to you, the people in charge are clear."

"If that's the case, why don't you see them stop it?"

"Well," Cui'er smiled, "yes, the situation that day was not to the point where you were in danger, and if you did, someone would definitely take action." ”

"The Lord means that you have enough freedom, but in an emergency, if the people below judge that you absolutely can't cope with it, they will take action."

I glanced at her and said, "You mean to say that when I was about to burp, the divine soldiers fell from the sky, right?" ”

I curled my finger and tapped her on the head and said, "Then you say, is there anyone lurking in the deserted village inn?" “

"If Wenzong's brother made a move that night, wouldn't the lurking person suddenly pop out?"

Cui'er shook her head and said, "The people arranged by the master, the slaves and maids don't know when they will appear. “

"I can't answer that question."

"But if the situation you say comes to you, that fierce and vicious son breaks in and wants to harm you."

"Someone will, perhaps."

"Today's words, the slave and maid have already overpassed, you, don't hear it." Cui'er grinned.

"Who said it, you said it, I also listened to it, how can it be that it didn't happen." I glared at her.

Cui'er leaned over, pulled my arm and said, "The slaves and maids are all for your good, don't worry, I will never betray you." ”

"That's what most traitors say." I pushed her away and said, "Who knows what kind of idea such a person is up to." ”

I took a sip of tea and moistened my throat and said, "I regret a little, I shouldn't have taken you with me." ”

"You say, I'm going to let you go in this town."

"If you want to go alone, or go back to the garden in Qibei, whatever you want, okay?"
