Chapter 12 Under the Same Roof

Xia Xiaoxiao walked slower and slower, and finally stopped. In front of www.biquge.info pen & fun & pavilion was an old locust tree, and she touched the leaves of a locust tree without turning around.

"Auntie, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and you haven't changed at all." Xia Rui made sure that no one was following her, so she cautiously walked out from the other end.

"If you practice the magic arts, you can delay aging, and the method I cultivate is quite special, so my appearance will only change once in twenty years." Xia Xiaoxiao plucked the leaves, pinched them in the palm of her hand, and a green barrier slowly rose, enveloping the two people.

"Auntie, what is this?" Xia Rui looked at it curiously, and it seemed that it was not so real from the inside out.

"Long story short, I'll tell you the details of the next few tests, so you're ready."

Xia Rui nodded in surprise and listened carefully to Xia Xiaoxiao's teachings.

From the outside, there are only two more locust trees here, one tall and one short, and nothing else.

…………

At this time, Chen Fan'er was already in the house and made her bed.

Li Hong was very silent, she only sat at the head of the bed, did not tidy up, and looked out the window stupidly.

Chen Fan'er, who was covered with a quilt, would look back a few times from time to time. To be honest, she is not good at communicating with people like Li Hong, so she is afraid that if she says too much, she will hurt the other party's self-esteem even more.

"Miss Cheng, am I really bad?"

Surprisingly, Li Hong spoke first, although her voice was very soft, but after all, the room was small, and there was a square table between the beds of the two.

Chen Fan'er had been thinking about Li Hong, so although she asked lightly, she immediately caught her ears.

But how do you answer that? Chen Fan'er thought for a while, deliberately made herself look too deliberate, pretended that the quilt had not been tidied up, and replied: "Everyone is good at different things, and their personalities are also different. There is no good or bad here, and there is no right or wrong. ”

"But when others look at me, they think I'm bad."

"How can it be worse to be ranked first among embroidery girls in a state?"

"When I was selected, I thought I was not bad, but I didn't expect that I would be ...... compared with everyone."

In fact, Chen Fan'er is also very curious, a cowardly character like Li Hong can actually obtain the qualification of an embroidered girl in the state and county? If it weren't for the low level of embroidery in the whole state, it should have gone other ways.

"If you can't compare with others, you can compare with yourself. It's good to make progress every day. Chen Fan'er folded and unfolded the quilt on the bed, unfolded and folded, and couldn't fit it anymore, so she turned around and walked to Li Hong's bed.

"I'll help you make the bed together, I'm tired from running today, you can rest for a while."

"No, no, I'll do it myself!" As if frightened, Li Hong suddenly stood up and pushed Chen Fan'er away.

Chen Fan'er was stunned, not knowing why.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Hong hurriedly bent down to apologize, and then immediately lowered her face, turned around and began to make up the bed.

"It seems that it is difficult for me to fulfill the original intention of Lord Shangxiu to allocate the room. But after all, it's just a temporary stay, so you can help as much as you can. Chen Fan'er turned around and found that the embroidery girl was wearing a white dress, holding a few thin threads in her hands, standing at the door.

Thin threads floated in the air, and six large bowls were tied behind them, and the bowls were still fastened with plates.

"Master Xiuniang, are you bringing us food?" Chen Fan'er saluted very respectfully, although she didn't know the status of the embroidery lady in the Shang Embroidery Bureau, but after all, she was a senior, and it was always right to salute.

Xiuniang nodded, her slender fingers raised slightly, and handed a thin thread to Chen Fan'er.

Chen Fan'er grabbed the thin thread and found that the big bowl tied to the thread floated towards him and quickly fell into his hand.

Then, Xiuniang conjured up a pair of chopsticks, handed them to Chen Fan, glanced at Li Hong, who was making the bed, and turned to leave.

"It seems that there really is only one copy." Chen Fan'er put the bowl on the table and removed the plate covered by the bowl.

Dinner is relatively simple, two large prawns, three cabbage leaves, an egg, and a bowl of rice.

When a person eats food, it will seem a little unkind.

"Li Hong, I'll divide some dishes and rice on the plate, and you can come and eat some later." Chen Fan'er asked tentatively.

"No need, I'm tired, you can eat it yourself." Li Hong still didn't turn around, roughly made the bed, didn't even take off her clothes, and got into the quilt and fell asleep.

Chen Fan'er hesitated for a moment, but still put a shrimp, two cabbage leaves, and a small half bowl of rice on the plate.

After eating, Chen Fan'er washed the chopsticks and bowls, and buckled the bowls upside down on the plates, for fear of attracting rats and insects at night.

Before going to bed, she reminded Li Hong again that there was still some leftovers on the table, but the other party turned over and turned in while sleeping, and did not respond, so she had to give up.

…………

The next day, at dawn, Chen Fan'er woke up.

Maybe it was because the aura near the imperial city was sufficient, and although Chen Fan'er woke up early, he felt full of energy.

To her surprise, Li Hong's bed was neatly folded, and the person was gone.

Chen Fan'er got up and freshened up, and then deliberately lifted the bowl buckled on the table and looked at it: the food didn't move, and the other party didn't eat a bite.

"That's all I can help, hey, I won't be hungry." Chen Fan'er scratched her head, being assigned to such a roommate was also quite a headache, and it seemed to be even more difficult to get along with than strangers.

"All up, all up, go to the main hall to report!" I heard Xia Xiaoxiao's urging sound outside the door.

Chen Fan'er opened the door and bumped into Xia Xiaoxiao.

"It's pretty early." Xia Xiaoxiao glanced at it disdainfully, as if she didn't have this attitude towards her yesterday evening.

"Sister Xia, it's early." Chen Fan'er bowed.

"The mouth is quite sweet, hasn't Li Hong in your housemate gotten up yet?"

She ...... It seems to have gotten up earlier than I did. Her bed was empty when I got up. Chen Fan'er thought about it, she couldn't hide this matter, Xia Xiaoxiao was standing at the door, maybe she saw that there was no one else in the house.

"It's only been the first day of living in it, so it's not a good relationship? Hmph, it seems that Lord Shangxiu is overestimating you. Xia Xiaoxiao stepped into the house to check and found that there were still leftovers on the table, and after a little thought, he understood what happened last night.

When the people in the other houses heard the order, they all left the house.

The slowest is Yan Qinghuan, her clothes are still a little untidy when she goes out, her little hands rubbing her sleepy eyes, and she looks like she hasn't woken up at all.

"The plan of the day lies in the morning, and they are so lazy, how to practice embroidery in the future. Come with me. Xia Xiaoxiao talked a lot more than yesterday evening, but it was full of complaints, and it was not very pleasing to want to be in charge of the errand of the new embroidery girl.

In front of the main hall, Li Shangxiu closed his eyes and sat in his old position, Si Bao and Si Yi stood on both sides, except for these three people, only Xiu Niang leaned against the door frame and said nothing.

The six of them followed Xia Xiaoxiao into the main hall, and Cao Xiaoyan was already waiting in front of the hall.

Song Sibao thought that everyone had arrived, so he glanced at it roughly, frowned and asked:

"How can there be one less?"

"Back to my lord. Li Hong in Room A is nowhere to be found, and Cheng Fan'er said that she disappeared when she got up this morning. Xia Xiaoxiao stepped forward and replied.

Li Shangxiu opened her eyes, glanced at His Royal Highness Chen Fan'er with deep eyes, and then pinched her fingers and said, "About this little girl is lost, she has walked to the gate of Siyi Courtyard." Xia Xiaoxiao, you go pick her up. (To be continued.) )
