CHAPTER XLIV
The girl in the courtyard closed her eyes for a long time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the east end of the village, Xi Yu Huo Ran, who was meditating cross-legged, opened his eyes and walked out quickly. I saw that in mid-air, the misty white soul body was condensing little by little, quickly penetrating the enchantment, and flying towards other mortal realms.
He pinched his fingers and counted for a long time, but he couldn't find the place where she would be reincarnated in the next life. The big red figure gradually disappeared in place, and the courtyard that had been transformed into magic gradually seemed to have never appeared in this world.
Yan Xiaoqi opened her eyes again, and found herself lying on a large bed carved of chicken wenge, with a pale pink gauze tent hanging on the top of the bed, she rubbed her sore forehead and slowly got up, and was hit by the exquisite furnishings in the room, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
On the corner table next to the bed, the enamel of the green crane incense burner, two incense threads are rising from Nana, and the simple and elegant fragrance is pouring into her nose.
At the foot of the bed, a pair of emerald green forged embroidered shoes embroidered with dragonflies were neatly placed there, delicate and small, she poked her foot and tried it, just right.
When did her feet get so small? Yan Xiaoqi suddenly became puzzled.
You must know that even if she is the most outstanding one in the village, she still can't break the things inherited in her bones, for example, she also has big feet that can work in the fields like the Zhao family.
Next to the wide wardrobe, on the dresser with carved flow lines, rouge gouache was neatly placed on it, she looked around, and saw that there was no one else, so she opened a jewelry box next to rouge like a thief.
The turquoise hosta, the gold hairpin inlaid with gemstones, the silver silk double buckle bracelet, the red coral earring... A box full of delicate jewelry, which she had only seen in pictures.
Which lady's boudoir is this? Still is?
Just as he was puzzled, the door was pushed open, and a girl dressed as a maid walked in.
"Miss, why don't you call us in to serve when you get up, you are just a little sick, get out of bed, but you have to put on a dress."
As he spoke, he walked to the wide wardrobe and took a small leather jacket, and a new emerald flower skirt waited for Yan Xiaoqi to put on.
"Mrs. Gang's side of the lotus fragrance came over to spread the word, saying that Mrs. heard that the young lady was unwell, so she was exempted from today's greetings. He also said that the young lady should take care of her body more if she has nothing to do, and don't always run outside.
"They are always like this, for fear that the young lady's appearance is too good and will block the way of the eldest lady. Knowing that tomorrow, the wife of the prince of the Yong'an Hou Mansion invited the ladies of the various provinces to go to enjoy the plum blossoms, and the lady rushed here to say that the young lady was sick. ”
The little maid was holding Yan Xiaoqi's hair in a bun, and at the same time chattering in Yan Xiaoqi's ear, looking at her natural and skillful posture, she must have done a lot of things before.
Yan Xiaoqi was confused, and tried to listen to the little maid's complaints with his ears propped up. Although I don't know the reason, I also know that I seem to be wearing it again, because the hibiscus-like face in the bronze mirror is very raw.
She doesn't have the same good luck as the crossing girl next to her, and she can still accept a memory or something like that, at this time, not being able to go out is exactly what she wants, and she doesn't even know her new name!
Although the little maid didn't say it explicitly, she could also understand between the lines that she should be the concubine in this house, a concubine with outstanding appearance.
What a terrible situation!
Yan Xiaoqi couldn't help but complain in her heart, thinking about the house fighting novels she had read, and weighing her IQ and EQ, her rational decision must be peaceful, peaceful, and peaceful.
The drama of a concubine turning over is not suitable for her.
This 'illness' is a month smaller, and the lotus fragrance next to Mrs. will come over early every morning and explain intimately: Mrs. let her recuperate with peace of mind.
She doesn't have to get up early to say goodbye, she can sleep until three poles in the morning every day, and then wait for lunch.
In the previous life, in the barren village, there was not enough food and clothing, and there was a lot of housework to do every day, not to mention her dilapidated body, her immature little heart was tired and overdrawn, and she dreamed of living a life like a rice worm.
Now the dream has come true, and I don't cherish the retribution.
As a young lady in the house, even if she is not a concubine, the configuration of the maids and mothers around her is the same as that of several young ladies in the concubine.
In the words of the little maid Xiangling, the second lady is used to pretending to be a maid who only has a young lady, which can not only make the people next to her praise her for being virtuous and generous, but also not need her to produce a copper plate, but also in exchange for a respect from the second master, and let her take advantage of all the cheap things.
There are many maids and mothers-in-law for the configuration, Yan Xiaoqi is afraid of being seen abnormally, so he doesn't care who it is, and finds a different little maid to say a few words every day, that is, the mother-in-law who guards the door, and when she walks around, she will also chat a few words.
Gradually, from these few words, I figured out the general situation of the house and this era.
This is a Hou Mansion with some accumulation, the ancestors were military generals, and now this Hou Ye has been passed down here for three generations, if you can't make any more great achievements, the plaque of this Hou Mansion is afraid to be replaced.
However, Xu is because his ancestor was born as a military general and is straightforward, and the current marquis in the house does not rely on the wine bag and rice bag of the ancestors, and he still holds the real power in his hands to bear the military position.
However, there are few wars nowadays, and in the early years, several tough battles repeatedly hit the nomads outside the Cypriot Islands, and they could not be slowed down in a short period of time, so if you want to rely on military merits to renew the title for another three years, or come to a hereditary replacement, this road is difficult to get through.
The maid and the mother-in-law can understand the simple truth, and the Hou Ye naturally knows it, so when it comes to Yan Xiaoqi's cheap father's generation, in addition to the eldest son who continues to lead the army to practice martial arts, this Hou Ye has trained several younger sons to take the road of Wenju.
The most outstanding one on the road of Wenju is Yan Xiaoqi's new father: Zhao Shu, who is already the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple in his thirties, is elegant and elegant, and has a good demeanor, and is once the wishful husband in the hearts of all the girls in the capital.
The second lady who was described by Xiangling as being accustomed to acting like her, that is, Yan Xiaoqi's current mother-in-law, was able to marry back then, and she also took advantage of the fact that her father was Zhao Shu's mentor.
Otherwise, with her ordinary appearance and ordinary background, how could she marry into the Hou Mansion.
Of course, these are the gossip in the house, when people have nothing to do, they like to criticize the rights and wrongs of the masters, although they know that there is a risk of being beaten and sold, but people are like this, the more exciting things are, the more they can't help but do it.
Yan Xiaoqi only felt that his talent for listening to the foot of the wall was directly at the full level, and he heard it all the way, and he already knew about the affairs in the house, especially the situation of the mother-in-law who was not obvious.
If there is a wife who is not obvious, there will be a stunning concubine, and Yan Xiaoqi, a cheap father, is very blessed to have two.
