() The loss of the silk handkerchief was a trivial matter, and the cuttlefish did not take it seriously, and it did not take long to leave the matter behind..................

After lunch, the cuttlefish fell asleep and was about to take a nap on this sunny afternoon, when suddenly she faintly heard a noise, as if someone was whispering.

She turned her ears and listened carefully, and finally heard Xiao Yuezi's voice, "Master, master, can the slave go in, there is something important to tell you, master, do you hear." ”

Such a faint whisper was simply a test of the cuttlefish's ear power, and she answered, not knowing what Xiao Yuezi wanted to say, so she had to be so careful.

Soon, Xiao Yuezi's figure flashed in, he deliberately avoided Ruyi and Chunxiang, and came to the master while they were both away, just because there were some things, it was inconvenient to say in front of others, and the fewer people who knew, the better.

"Xiao Yuezi, what is important to you, there are only you and me here, but it doesn't hurt to say it." The cuttlefish asked, confused.

After hearing this, Xiao Yuezi nodded honestly, put his hand into his sleeve, and took out a small cloth bag, "This is a eunuch named Gu Xiaochuan sent it, and let the servant personally hand it over to you, saying that you once rescued him, and he specially sent a small gift to repay the kindness." ”

As soon as he heard Gu Xiaochuan's name, the cuttlefish's body stiffened, and he was surprised and delighted. Since Ruyi Chunxiang and others came to Changchun Palace, Xiao Chuanzi has never come here to look for her, first, he is worried that their familiar relationship will arouse everyone's suspicion of the identity of the cuttlefish, and secondly, to avoid suspicion, after all, there are differences between men and women, even eunuchs are no exception.

The cuttlefish opened the cloth bag, and what appeared in front of him was a note, as well as some silver taels.

Seeing that the master's expression had changed, Xiao Yuezi lowered his head and said, "If you don't have anything else to explain, the slave will go out first." ”

Although Xiao Yuezi is honest and responsible, but his mind is not stupid, he has seen a lot of people in the palace for many years, and today's situation makes him quickly guess that the relationship between cuttlefish and Gu Xiaochuan is not ordinary, so he avoids others and comes alone to give things to the master.

On that day, the master came to the Zhongcui Palace to rescue him, and he was injured for this, and he always remembered this kindness, and always wanted to serve the master well in return.

The cuttlefish nodded, hesitated slightly, and then spoke, "You go out and get busy, don't tell anyone about Gu Xiaochuan, he just received a little help from me, and it is not worth talking about to outsiders." ”

Xiao Yuezi naturally understood, "Everyone listens to the master, the slave is strict-mouthed and won't talk nonsense." After speaking, he bowed and withdrew.

The cuttlefish opened the note, there were only a few lines of words on it, the handwriting was beautiful and neat, and it was indeed written by Xiao Chuanzi himself.

Xiaochuan was worried that there were too many people in the Changchun Palace, and the expenses on weekdays were too great, and the cuttlefish had to go around with other concubines to socialize, and he was afraid that she would not be able to bear it, so he sent the money he had saved in the past few years. In order not to arouse suspicion, he also made up a lie to repay his kindness as an excuse.

Cuttlefish smiled bitterly: Xiaochuanzi, why are you so stupid, I am now the identity of the promise, will the money I receive be as small as before? How can you give me all the hard-earned money you've saved? Don't you think about yourself?

Gu Xiaochuan has always been very good to cuttlefish, never stingy with a penny of money or feelings, in the past three years, cuttlefish does not know how much Xiaochuan has taken care of, she has remembered it in her heart one by one, and has never forgotten it.

It's just that she is too late to realize that she is extremely insensitive to the feelings between men and women, and in the face of Xiaochuan's obvious affection, she only regards it as the righteousness and care between friends, and never has any other thoughts.

Whether it is appearance or character, Gu Xiaochuan is not bad, the difference is that he is a eunuch and a eunuch, and this defect makes him always unable to have the courage to say his mind, so he can only be doubly good to the cuttlefish, in order to vent his feelings.

It's a pity that Lang'er has no intention of having a concubine, but it's a pity that people can't help themselves in the deep palace, and when they suddenly understand, it may be too late. The cuttlefish felt lucky and grateful for Xiaochuan's affection, and she naturally did not think that anything would happen in the near future......

If she could have the power of an unpredictable prophet, then she would definitely prefer to let a qiē start over......

The cuttlefish put away the cloth bag and hid it in a secret place, she felt a little cold on her face, and reached out to wipe it, and it was two lines of clear tears. With a complicated heart, thinking about the deceased master, thinking about the old friend who was close in front of her but couldn't see each other, this situation taught her how not to shed a few bitter tears!

After crying, the days still have to go on, the cuttlefish straightened out the messy hair on his forehead, and remembered something important. She cleared her throat and called Ruyi in.

Ruyi had just been busy working in the dining room, and she had nothing to do with Xiao Anzi to learn how to make spring cakes, so she rolled up her sleeves high to prevent the newly made good clothes from being stained with flour.

"Master, if you have any orders, the slave and maid will definitely do it." Ruyi said with a grin, full of interest.

The cuttlefish looked at her fair-skinned little arms and quipped, "Look at your little talent, learn a little cooking skills and be happy like this." If you don't do your idle work, you will not be happy if you want to run to the dining room and be smoked by the oil smoke. ”

Ruyi pretended to look aggrieved, and replied, "Isn't the slave maid here to cook something delicious for you, I've worked so hard, but you still make fun of me." ”

The cuttlefish chuckled, her mood was much better, she was too lazy to quarrel with Ruyi anymore, put away the jokes, and instructed seriously, "When did you learn to play tricks, did you learn from Chunxiang?" Come on, I'll admit defeat, let's get down to business first. Tomorrow is Hai Chang's birthday, if I remember correctly, she should live in Xianfu Palace, you go and pick up some items to take and send them over, just say that I occasionally feel cold, it is not appropriate to go in person. ”

This Hai person's moral character is very average, and the cuttlefish doesn't want to have too much contact with her, just want to send the congratulatory gift and maintain a nodding relationship.

Ruyi was a little hesitant, if she was only polite and people didn't, she was afraid that Hai Chang would be displeased, but she was just a low-ranking concubine who was not favored, maybe it didn't hurt.

"Yes, leave this matter to the slave and maid, and the master can rest assured."

The cuttlefish nodded reassuringly, took Ruyi's hand, and said sincerely, "Ruyi, fortunately, with you, I can save a lot of heart, although you and I are the relationship between master and servant, but you can also treat me as a true friend, you don't have to always be respectful, it seems too raw." ”

The cuttlefish just wanted to say something more heart-wrenching, but something suddenly appeared in her sight that she couldn't imagine, and she was suddenly taken aback, and shouted loudly, "Ruyi...... You...... What's this on your arm? ”
