CH.015 Sigh at the dinner table and live in the deep night

As the sun set, the people of Yin's house had already prepared a table of dishes. "This girl, why hasn't she come back?" It was a woman who spoke, she was neatly dressed, and even though she was a half-aged, she was still attractive. She looked anxiously out the door. "Madam, Miss is not a child anymore, and if she has her wishes, she will not suffer." Standing aside was a servant who was a few years older than her. "I know, Sister-in-law Feng, it's just that it's getting late, and I'm worried about being a mother." As the two were talking, they heard a voice come into their ears.

"Madame, we're back." The two of them followed the prestige, only to see Ruyi holding the young lady's hand and pacing briskly. Then the two walked into the hall. Miss "Mother" said, and then took off the veil. "Yue'er, do you still know to come back?" Madame sat down at the table and turned her face away from her. "Mother, the child just sees the beautiful scenery outside, so stop for a while." The young lady explained as she tugged at Madame's hand. "Yes, ma'am, the young lady also bought you rouge gouache and your favorite water chestnut cake." Ruyi said goodbye and handed the big bag and small wrap in his hand to Sister-in-law Feng.

"Okay, my mother won't be angry. Sit down and eat. Sister-in-law Feng, eat together as you wish. The lady spoke, and several people sat down. Sister-in-law Feng sent the things back to the house and walked back. "Sister-in-law Feng, sit down." Madame persuaded. "Yes, ma'am," she sat down with a slight hesitation. "Mother, why hasn't my father come back yet? Do you want to wait for him to eat? The bowl that the young lady had picked up was put down again. Your father is a governor, and he is busy with official duties. So we eat first, no need to wait. Then the lady picked up the bowl, and the few began to move the chopsticks.

"I'm back." Halfway through the meal, I suddenly saw a man wearing an official uniform, with powerful eyebrows and eyes, and an age of entering the age of destiny, walking in. "Dad, you're back. Sit down and eat. The young lady put down the dishes and chopsticks. Ruyi and Sister-in-law Feng all stood up. "Daddy has eaten it. Get out of the way, you keep eating. He sat down beside his wife and looked at the dishes on the table in a daze. Ruyi gave Sister-in-law Feng a look, "Master, madam, miss, we are full." The two of them said in unison, and then stood aside.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Alas, sigh. Madame asked when she saw him in a daze. yes, Dad, what's going on? The young lady asked with concern. Alas, just now I went to see the Shoshu of the Ministry of Rites. He heard that there are many beautiful women in Yangzhou, and all of them are talented. I want to select a few excellent ones to be sent to the palace to serve the emperor. The old man said with a sigh. Isn't that a good thing, sir? How are you?" asked Madame. "A good thing? The book of the Ministry of Rites said that my daughter would also participate. "What?" Miss and Mrs. were all surprised, and even Ruyi and Sister-in-law Feng almost screamed in surprise.

"I'm not done yet. When he told me this, of course I didn't agree, and I didn't care to tell him the truth. He thought about it for a moment and gave up on the idea. The old man said, and then several people breathed a sigh of relief.

"But," "Dad, can you finish it all in one sitting?" "Miss can't stand this toss." However, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said that since I am the governor, I must actively cooperate with his work, although you don't have to participate, but you must perform, and three days later set up a stage in front of the largest restaurant in Yangzhou. You come to the finale. The old man finally finished speaking, and several people were dumbfounded.

"What? Three days later"

At night, the candlelight still shines in the lady's boudoir. She lay in bed and couldn't sleep. "Ruyi" she called out to the maid, and Ruyi pushed the door in.

"Miss, why aren't you sleeping?" Ruyi sat on the edge of the young lady's bed and looked at her obediently. "Ruyi, I can't sleep, my heart is very messy." The young lady sat up against the pillow. "Miss, are you still thinking about what the master said?" Ruyi asked. "Yes and no, it's a big deal, I'm still wearing a veil. They don't know what I look like anyway. It's just that you're still worried about what the priest said. "Ruyi pierced with a word." Or do you know me. Know my mind. Miss looked at Ruyi. Miss, don't think about it, Xiangshi's words are not to be believed, you better sleep. Oh good. After speaking, the young lady obediently lay down and covered her with a quilt as she wished.

"Master, what do you see in front of you?" I walked up and took a look. "Ahem" Suddenly the black mass turned into a human figure, and then a ghost was standing in front of me. "Ahh "Who is this? Look at your face, who are you? I pursed my lips and smiled. I'm Hei Manling, your peer. "Oh, it's you, look up for a long time, and it's really the same as the legend. Looks like a fairy. He said with a bull's eye on the bull's eye.

"Girl, what are you looking for me?" He asked me.

"Well, this colleague, because it's late, I went to several stores that were full, and I couldn't wander around. So I wanted to ask you what are the best places to go. "I clenched my fists." Yes, I have a good place to go, but can you go to such a place? "Why not?" I asked him. "There's nothing to do, I'm just patrolling the streets, and if there's any emergency, I'll deal with it. So I'll have to come back when I'm done taking you. He explained. Well, bumper bumper. "Then I took Little 18 and the little beggar to follow him. After a few tosses, I finally saw an entrance that went straight underground.

The tunnels are dark and damp, with the occasional weed passing underfoot. After some twists and turns, finally there was light shining in front of me. Walking out of the cave, a stunning view comes into view. "Is it really a cave, this is underground?" I asked the ghost. "Exactly, this is called the Deep Cave, which is equivalent to the yamen of the world. After the people here die, they enter here first, because the affairs of the underworld are busy, so after considering this, they will be sent to the underworld. There are similar places all over the country. He said. I see. I sighed, this place is really beautiful, the moon I see is blue, and the "yamen" in front of me is exactly the same as the human inn. The exterior is very luxurious, and even the hanging cloth sail has the words Deep Hades Inn.

After entering, it is even more magnificent, and the hall is very neat and tidy, without a trace of dust. A few tables were set up there. A shopkeeper was making calculations there. "Shopkeeper Zhou" The ghost waved his hand. "Hey, brought a girl to stay in the hotel?" He looked at me with disdain, and I smiled at him. This week's shopkeeper is an old man, well-dressed. "Girl, do you have any silver?" The shopkeeper asked. "I have," he said, pulling out a silver ingot from his bosom. He smiled slightly, "Girl, our store does not accept property from the world, but from the underworld." "I sweated a little, but fortunately Hades stuffed it for me in advance, I thought I wouldn't need it." Okay sign your name. He pulled out a piece of paper, and I signed my name. He read it for a moment, and then gave me a key.

"Girl, now that you have the key, I can't accompany you, I have to go out to patrol the streets." The ghost waved at me. It then vanished. Then a shopkeeper suddenly appeared in front of him. Led me upstairs.
