Chapter 106: The Curtain Begins
The night wind brought a faint sound of beating outside the courtyard wall, "Bang Bang Bang" three times in a row, one slow and two fast, it was already three watches, and the night was deep. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info Ning lives in a wing room in the East Cross Courtyard, but the lights are still on.
Aunt Ge was wearing a homely navy blue plain silk dress, with a ribbon of the same color around her waist, sitting in front of the mirror, one end was down to the buttocks, and her black and black hair hung down behind her. It is said that looking at beauties under the lamp is really true. At night, under the lamp, in front of the mirror, Aunt Ge took away the deliberate old state and solemnity in the daytime, an indescribable laziness and charm came out through the bones, I don't know if it is the relationship of the candlelight, during the day, I look at some sallow complexion at this time but it is crystal clear, when I raise my hand to comb my hair, the sleeves slide down, revealing a white jade wrist, the skin is lined with navy blue clothing, like a girl's smooth and crystalline, where is like a woman in her thirties, which shows that in addition to natural beauty, it is also properly maintained!
A maid wearing a blue jacket walked behind Aunt Ge, took the comb, took over the movements in Aunt Ge's hand, and gently combed her hair. Especially this hair, the slave has never seen anyone whose hair is more beautiful than the aunt's, no wonder it can charm our master and let him rest in the aunt's room for several nights! β
Aunt Ge listened, but she squinted and smiled, that smile didn't know why, but it made the little maid look at it, and her heart was a little chilling, "I couldn't charm him when I was young, could it be that I am now a, but I can fascinate him?" β
When the little maid heard this, it was not good, I was afraid that she had said the wrong thing, her face changed slightly, and she said busily, "Where is my aunt?" My aunt is now the blooming flower, delicate and fresh, and the fragrance is charming! β
"It doesn't take long for the flowers to wither. Xiaoman, do you think that the third master has not entered my door for so many years, and now that he has been here for a few days in a row, I should be flattered and overjoyed? β
Xiao Man bit her lower lip lightly, and didn't know how to answer. But listening to Aunt Ge, she actually covered her lips and giggled, and the charm in her eyes flowed out invisibly, wanting to penetrate the man's heart. "I'm afraid that our third master is fighting with this idea! After so many years of ignoring me, does it make me grateful to give a little bit now? Go ahead! I'm afraid our third master won't come over tonight, right? But resting in the main courtyard? β
Xiaoman was talking back and forth, but she was afraid that her aunt would feel uncomfortable when she heard it, so she changed the topic, but who knew that it had attracted such a play, and she regretted not being at the beginning, but now when she heard it, she naturally didn't hide it, and said busily, "Yes!" The lights in the main courtyard have been turned off. But I thought in my heart, after all, the wife is the main room, and the master is a very important concubine, and it is rare to rest in the aunt's room for a few nights, and the wife naturally wants to be appeased.
Aunt Ge put down the hand covering her mouth, the corners of her mouth were still curved, but the smile was not as good as the bottom of her eyes, "It should be enough for a few days, in the end, it's really a little difficult for our master." β
Xiao Man was confused, although her aunt was usually unfathomable, but today's speech made her more and more annoyed, what did she mean? When Xiao Man was puzzled, Aunt Ge had already slowly and methodically gathered her hair and said, "Xiao Man, just give me a child." β
Xiaoman was taken aback, "It's so late, isn't my aunt resting?" Still going out? Although he asked, Xiao Man's movements in his hand did not dare to be slow, and he quickly picked up the comb, and according to the instructions, he picked the combed hair left and right, but in a moment, he had already pulled a child.
Aunt Ge personally picked a streamer from the dressing box, emerald color. The dripping gold-inlaid jade swayed, obliquely inserted into the temples, and the shaking jade beads gently swayed in the corners of her eyes, projecting a bright green light to cover the charm in Aunt Ge's eyes, revealing a trace of weird beauty, "I want to rest, but I'm afraid that people won't let me rest." β
When Xiao Man was listening to the clouds, a series of light footsteps came from far and near, and a maid who was very similar to Xiao Man's dress walked in, twisted her eyebrows slightly, walked to Aunt Ge, bowed slightly, and pulled out an octagonal from her sleeve, but it was broken, and only three horns remained. Xiao Man suddenly realized when she saw it, so it was so, no wonder her aunt had to go out so late. She thought that the third master had been resting in her aunt's room for a few days, and even if her aunt wouldn't break off from that side, she should rest for a few days, but would she have to go? Xiao Man didn't know why, she felt that something was wrong, and her heart beat twice uneasily.
Aunt Ge stood up from the dresser. The maid who came later also looked uneasy, and said softly, "Auntie, this series of things, the slave maid doesn't believe you can't understand it, do you really want to go?" β
Aunt Ge smiled at herself in the mirror, and the smile was charming, "Go!" Of course you have to go! Aren't others trying their best to let me go on this trip? How could you let them down? β
Xiaoman was more and more uneasy by her aunt's laughter, and always felt that something bad would happen tonight. The other maid frowned and was silent for a moment, then sighed helplessly, then walked aside, took a gray squirrel cloak from the hanger, and gently draped it on Aunt Ge's thin shoulders.
"Twig! You and Xiaoman have a fight with me, and I have nothing else to leave for you. There is a box on the table, which is something I prepared for the two of you, and your deed of sale is also in it, not much, but it is enough for you two to live without food and clothing for a lifetime......"
"Auntieβ" Xiao Zhi and Xiao Man exclaimed in unison.
"Twigs, vines! Thank you for being with me all this way, and you won't have to be with me tonight! I have already taken care of the princess at the corner gate of the backyard, and after I leave, you two want to go out of the house! After the words fell, without waiting for the two maids to react, they pulled up the style on the cloak to cover most of their faces, and then, turning around and going out of the door, picked up the angry wind lamp that had rested by the door when the little branch came back, and disappeared into the night without looking back.
"Auntie, what are you doing? Why all of a sudden, let the two of us go? Is something wrong? Xiao Man was so anxious that she asked one after another, and when she turned around, she saw Xiao Zhi staring at the direction of Aunt Ge's departure in the dark, and her fingernails pinched into the back of Xiao Man's hand, and she was already in tears. Xiao Man only felt that his heart was sinking, and Xiao Zhi had already gritted his teeth and said, "Go and pack your things, let's go immediately!" I can't live up to my aunt's hard work! β
At the other end of the house, with one hand, gently pushed open the courtyard door that should have been locked, and the curtain was raised......
