Chapter 12: The Long Night

The sound of this word is so light, but it is so heavy, Shang Xiu'er can't cry anymore, her eyes are dry, she looked at Xiao Liuye numbly, and then looked at the top of her head, this is the bed of the powerful family, it is really beautiful on it, under the carved beams and paintings, layers of light gauze curtains, hooked with beautiful lily hooks carved from white jade, and the dense purple tassels shook gently with Xiao Liuye's breathing.

Shang Xiu'er was in a daze, maintaining the posture of kneeling on the bed, but a snoring still startled her, she straightened up in a panic, blinked her dry eyes, and gently moved off the bed.

Her clothes were still wet and cold, and she slowly moved herself to the smoker, the aroma and heat surrounding her, and she felt that the cold was a little farther away from her.

Again, she was very tired and sleepy, but she couldn't take a nap, she was now dressed neatly, even her hair was tied with her fingers and simply made a bun, kneeling on the cold ground next to the smoker, her body seemed to be a little warm, but her legs were freezing to death. She looked at the sixth master who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and repeated the words that she was going to say for a while, ten or twenty times.

Guanyin stared at the window of Mo Wangju outside the door, where the lights had long been turned off, she took a breath, as if she wanted to sigh, but in the end this sigh disappeared without a trace, she said, "Long'er, you say...... Forget it, let's go back. You...... You have the hot water boiled and ready to go. ”

The sky outside the window finally turned gray, and the sixth master on the bed turned over and said "tea" in his mouth.

After a while, it seemed that because he had not waited for tea, the sixth master seemed to be angry and slapped the bed a few times, then turned over, kicked the wine bottle again when he stayed, and made a clanging sound, he opened his eyes slightly, poured himself herbal tea from the small table next to the bed, and poured a sigh of relief.

Shang Xiu'er stared blankly at the light gauze curtain, she couldn't help licking her lips, she really wanted to drink water, but she didn't want to move at all - if she moved, she would feel the piercing pain in both knees.

Xiao Liuye sat for a while, sobered up a little, and finally realized that something was wrong, the smell of various smells mixed together in the whole room, the smell of wine, and the aroma were ...... He looked back at the bed, then at himself.

He took a deep breath, and without frowning his brows, he draped his robe over his naked-naked body, pulled it together briefly, put on his shoes, and lifted the curtain open, and because of the great strength, the right tent was torn from the hook at once, and fell gently to the ground.

Then Xiao Liuye saw Shang Xiu'er.

He stroked his forehead and asked in a suppressed voice, "Last night...... It's you? ”

Shang Xiu'er looked at it in a daze, and before she could nod or answer "yes", Xiao Liuye had already strode out, Shang Xiu'er heard the door being kicked open with a "bang", and then Xiao Liuye's voice came in.

"What about people? Come! ”

Shang Xiu'er heard someone come in lightly, rolled up the cover and took it away, re-laid the bed, opened the window to ventilate and remove dust, changed the charcoal and spices, re-made tea, and brought a copper kettle to pour the washing water.

After a while, Xiao Liuye changed his underwear, came in with moisture, washed his face calmly, dried it with a rag, and someone helped to change into a brand-new robe, he casually picked out a jade belt, ornaments and hairpins from the plate served by the little servant, and then someone carefully buckled the belt, hung up the accessories, and someone carefully came up to comb the hair and inserted the hairpin.

But the whole process is infiltrating quiet.

Xiao Liuye sat on the chair, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

"Jiulingxiu?" Xiao Liuye said.

"Sixth Master." Shang Xiu'er replied with a dry throat, but her body was stiff and couldn't move, and said: "Guanyin ......" Before the words were finished, Xiao Liuye had already swept all the things on the table to the ground, making a loud noise, the porcelain was shattered, the tea splashed, Shang Xiu'er was frightened, and the skirt that was finally dried with body temperature was splashed with water, and those little guys immediately knelt on the ground, bowing their heads, and everyone's bodies were trembling.

"Where's the lady?"

A little guy replied in a trembling voice: "There is no movement over there in the bamboo garden. ”

At this time, Xiao Liuye had calmed down and said coldly: "Go down." Only then did the kneeling group get up, clean up the ground again, and retreat together.

It was only now that Shang Xiu'er saw clearly that the sixth master in front of him was indeed a beautiful man.

He is about thirty years old, his eyebrows are not thick or thin, slightly drooping, lined with a pair of phoenix eyes that are slightly raised upward, revealing an indelible sad appearance, the bridge of the nose is high, thin and straight, the mouth is tightly pursed, and when he speaks, he can see the neat and white teeth inside, he has a short mustache on his lips, and a slight beard on his chin that is not too long, which is very neatly trimmed. These two characteristics are strangely united in this person.

Xiao Liuye said outside: "Drumstick, go and let Master Gu boil a bowl of water to nourish her throat, tell her that she will know." ”

There was an answer outside, and there was a sound of footsteps going away.

Xiao Liuye sat there and didn't say anything more.

Shang Xiu'er is really a little uncertain, now the sky is bright, but the "Guanyin" lady has not appeared, she only said the word "Guanyin" just now, which made him so angry, she could only shut up, and she couldn't say a word of the words prepared in advance.

The footsteps gradually, a little guy came in with a mahogany plate, and a bowl of soup was placed on it, Xiao Liuye made a color in the direction of Shang Xiu'er, and the little guy dared to bring it to her, and said respectfully: "Auntie...... Girl, please moisten your throat. ”

Shang Xiu'er hesitated for a moment, picked up the bowl of soup, tasted it first, and then drank it all, she was so thirsty, and this bowl of water was really delicious, with a faint sweetness in the fragrance, she could vaguely taste the taste of Luo Han Guo.

Xiao Liuye said again: "Drumstick, call the ponytail." ”

For a moment, the two little guys stood honestly in front of Xiao Liuye.

"Mawei, I asked you to inquire about Li Dushou last night, how was the inquiry?"

"The little ones can inquire, it's a master Ma under Lord Li's account, I don't know where I've seen the play of the Peony Society, he is a person who has no ability but is used to flattering horses, and knows that Lord Li likes to look at the southern accent, so he repeatedly mentioned it in front of Lord Li. Originally, Lord Li didn't have much interest, and he didn't know which one of the debtors was going to watch the play, so Master Li also passed. ”
