Chapter 52: Compared to the Grace of Saving Lives
"What misunderstanding? Say it quickly! Xu Ziwen pushed Jing Lan and said impatiently. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I'm afraid that Miss Xu won't dare to do it," Jinglan said.
"Huh!" Xu Ziwen sneered when he heard this: "If there is anything I dare not do, you just have to say it!" ”
Jing Lan smiled slightly and nodded a few steps forward, stretched out her hand to cover her lips, and whispered in Xu Ziwen's ear.
With that, she put down her hand and took a few steps back and looked at Xu Ziwen.
Xu Ziwen's eyes widened, his mouth opened and he was speechless.
The two maids outside the house looked into the house through the window lattice from time to time, and one of the maids said angrily.
"This Jinglan is now running to Miss twice in three days, and I don't know what she is doing day by day."
"It's not that I'm here to talk to Miss Six," the other maid rolled her eyes and said, "Which time you came over, didn't you go back with a few valuable ornaments, a wild child who fell into the eyes of money." ”
"That's it," the maid also pouted, "Miss Six has never been so generous to us, and the most valuable reward is only a plain carved hairpin." We worked hard for her and couldn't get a few good ones, she came over and took so many valuable jewelry, and I don't know where I learned to flamboyant, coaxing Miss Six to be so generous......"
The maid chattered and complained, but was poked a few times by the other maid and then instantly shut up.
Jing Lan stepped over the doorrail and bowed to the house before slowly leaving.
The maid took a sip from behind and said, "Look at her like that, she must have taken a lot of good things!" ”
"Like her brother, he's a money-eyed thing!" The other maid scolded.
Jinglan reached out and touched the white jade bracelet in her sleeve, pursed her lips and walked away quickly.
The sun sets in the western mountains, and the night is slightly cool.
Outside, it seemed that day had turned from night to night in a blink of an eye, and the lanterns outside the courtyard were glowing white, and candles were faintly lit in the window lattice.
Xie Zhuoyan left Master Gu's courtyard, and when she walked to a corridor, she saw Gu Chengze standing in the middle of the road.
He stood there alone, with a moon-white coat hanging from his right arm.
In the slightly dim night, he looked even fairer and more dazzling, as if the cold moonlight had softened his face in an instant.
Gu Chengze saw Xie Zhuoyan coming, so he took a few steps forward, and said with a soft smile: "The weather is slightly cool, put it on." ”
As he spoke, he opened the moon-white daze and hung it on Xie Zhuoyan's body softly and skillfully, and Xie Zhuoyan said thank you in a low voice while tying the brocade ribbon.
Xie Zhuoyan is not surprised by Gu Chengze's thoughtfulness and gentleness, but feels that the more he is like this, the more he looks like him.
"Why don't you take a maid with you when you go out?" Gu Chengze said.
"I think Yingluo seems to have something, so I asked her not to follow me." Xie Zhuoyan said disapprerovitically.
Gu Chengze and Xie Zhuoyan both knew who Yingluo was.
Xie Zhuoyan said this, she was just blaming Gu Chengze for spying on her.
How could Gu Chengze not understand, but he didn't continue the topic anymore, and asked instead: "Father didn't embarrass you when he called you, right?" ”
"No," Xie Zhuoyan replied, "It's just for me to admit my mistake to Ma Tong." ”
"That's good," Gu Chengze said: "The Buddha platform you ordered before has been moved over, and the wooden stakes in the courtyard will be ready tomorrow, you can see what else you need." ”
Xie Zhuoyan stopped for a moment after hearing this, then turned to Gu Chengze and saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Grand Master Gu." ”
is so gentle, no matter what, Xie Zhuoyan should thank him.
Gu Chengze was obviously stunned, he didn't expect Xie Zhuoyan to give him a big salute, and then helped her up in a trance and said: "It's nothing compared to the grace of saving lives, Miss Xie doesn't have to say thank you." ”
Xie Zhuoyan chuckled and got up and continued to walk forward.
The two were silent for a moment, walking quietly on the cobblestone path, and after a while, Xie Zhuoyan spoke.
"I'm going to Yongxing tomorrow."
Xie Zhuoyan thought about it again and again, and decided to say it to Gu Chengze out of respect.
But it is only an information, not a request for permission.
Gu Chengze bowed: "Okay." ”
The sound was so soft that it seemed to drift away with the wind when it exited, as if it had not been heard.
Once again, the two fell into silence and walked side by side.
The moon-white robe on Xie Zhuoyan's body fluttered up with the cold wind, and the moon-white robe of Gu Chengze beside him looked particularly intertwined in the moonlight.
The night in the suburbs seems to come earlier than in the market, and there is silence all around, and there is not a single figure on the flat ground.
A thatched hut stood out in this open area.
A petite figure gently pushed open the wooden door that was almost falling off, and after a creak, a cough could be heard from inside.
"Cough, cough ......" The cough sound came intermittently, and then an old woman's voice followed: "Is it Lan'er?" Ahem......"
Hearing this, Jinglan hurriedly ran over, put the things in her hand on the low table beside her, patted the old woman's back and responded, "It's me, it's me." ”
The old woman coughed a few times and raised her hand, Jinglan stopped her movements, turned around and picked up a few packets of paper on the low table and stepped forward to say.
"Mother, look." Jinglan said happily: "This medicine is much better than the last time, take the medicine on time every day and your illness will be cured." ”
Jinglan brought a few packets of Chinese medicine to the old woman, but the old woman didn't raise her head.
Jinglan put away her smile embarrassedly, and then said, "I'll go and boil medicine for you, you lie down and rest for a while." ”
Immediately, the old woman coughed violently again, and Jinglan hurriedly put down the Chinese medicine in her hand and came forward to pat the old woman on the back.
"Your brother will be back in a few days," said the old woman again.
Jing Lan didn't reply, turned around and took a few packets of Chinese medicine and left, the expression on her face couldn't be seen clearly in the dim room.
As soon as it was dawn the next morning, Xie Zhuoyan had already woken up.
Yingluo served Xie Zhuoyan to dress and wash, and she was indeed more attentive than other maids.
Xie Zhuoyan sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the still unfamiliar faces in front of her, and felt in a trance.
"The young grandmother has a natural temperament, no wonder the young master loves the young grandmother so much."
Yingluo smiled with two deep dimples, her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, and she looked a few years younger than Xie Zhuoyan.
She said that she curled up her cloud bun for Xie Zhuoyan, opened the coral carved hollow makeup on the desk and said, "Grandma." ”
Xie Zhuoyan glanced sideways at the open makeup, and stretched out her finger to the plain silver tangled branch hairpin lying inside.
Yingluo picked it up lightly and brought it for Xie Zhuoyan, and reached out to get the matching amber earrings, but was stopped by Xie Zhuoyan's exit.
"A hairpin is fine."
Yingluo put away her makeup, looked up and nodded after seeing a maid outside the window.
"Young Grandma," Yingluo said with a low waist, "The eldest young master is already waiting outside the door." ”
Xie Zhuoyan frowned slightly.
Why, do you want to follow me this time?
