Chapter Twenty-Eight: Discovering the Secret
"The old slave sent Xue Ji back to the yard, she pretended to be frightened, and the old slave helped her cook the medicinal soup" The purpose was achieved, and Mama Han took over the conversation, "The old slave added it to it, and the leaves that made people faint were checked"
Looking at her expression, there seemed to be a few hidden smiles in her self-satisfaction, this check, it will definitely not be just looking through the bed drawer, Xie Jiang was a little curious: "What did you find?" It won't be, uh... Did you strip someone else's clothes? ”
The same teenage girl said this, and Mama Han showed a little embarrassment on her face, and coughed: "On the bed and couch, the old slave in the dark box naturally looked for it, and later?" Anyway, that kind of medicinal soup can make people sleep for two or three hours, so the old slave simply went to her to find it."
What this person said was extremely relaxed, but Wang Fu, who was nesting on the couch, was shocked into a cold sweat. Xie Jiang asked in a low voice: "Looking at Mama like this, I guess I will gain a lot."
"It's this thing" Mama Han took out a roll of brocade silk from the placket, handed it to Xie Jiang, and lowered her voice and said, "Xue Ji wrapped it around her chest, um... The lady turned over and looked at the interlining."
If it is so secret, it must be something involved. Xie Jiang unfolded and glanced at it a few times, and saw that there was a pointed beak and round ears painted on it, which looked like a bird but not a bird, so he whispered to Mama Han: "Draw these down, take the original and return it to her."
If the person wakes up and finds that something has been lost, he will startle the snake.
Mama Han tucked the brocade silk in the placket of her clothes and quietly walked out of the house.
When the person left, the words were clear enough, Xie Jiang raised his hand and lifted the bed tent, looked at Wang Fu and joked: "Didn't you eavesdrop enough?" Can't afford to stay"
"What are you eavesdropping" Wang Fu put on his shoes and said with a wistful expression, "I found myself a little stupid, forget it, with you and Mama Jiaoxi, that Xue Ji can't do anything" muttered in his mouth, and didn't ask the girl to come in to serve, and put on his coat "It's getting dark, I'll go back to my yard"
It's really rare for the love to fall like this, Xie Jiang was secretly amused, and asked softly: "Hantang made meat soup and steamed Fu wontons, don't you eat it?" ”
These two things are Wang Fu's favorite foods.
"Pack it up and take it away" As he spoke, Wang Fu lifted the curtain and walked out of the inner room, turned around and told Wei Zi, "Why don't you eat, go to the backyard bud kitchen and scoop me two more bowls"
The veil lamp under the porch flickered a few times in the wind.
Waiting for Wang Fu and Wei Zi to leave the courtyard gate, Xie Jiang instructed Yujing: "Bolt the door" Yujing said in a low voice: "Mama didn't go back?" After saying half a sentence, I understood the meaning of "the slave maid let the two of them latch the door to rest"
It doesn't matter if it's latched or locked, it means that the people in the yard are there, and of course, the servant woman guarding the door can sleep.
The little girl bolted the door as she said, the night dusk hung low, and there was silence in the wisteria courtyard.
After sleeping all afternoon, Xie Jiang lost his sleepiness at night, so he moved the lamp to the desk next to the bed, took out the book to read, just turned a few pages, and saw Yujing Xisuo dragging the wooden box out, and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing with those pages?" ”
"Mama gave the ingot, and the slave put it inside"
Xie Jiang was interested, and said softly: "Move over and see how many families we have."
Yujing grinned: "If it goes on like this, the lady will save for a few years, and when she goes to her husband's house in the future, she may have to save a few big boxes" said in her mouth, and moved the boxes over.
When I came, a few people still wanted to save their lives, but I didn't expect to get some on the road, not to mention, Cui's side still has silver every month, plus the gold and silver won in the last chess fight, it was almost full.
Xie Jiang stretched out his hand and rummaged through it a few times, took out a bright orange brocade belt, and sighed secretly in his heart, sure enough, he was worthy of being the concubine of the Langya Wang family, and the bags containing miscellaneous items were pressed with gold threads. sighed and sighed, grabbed the gold wire button and pulled it..."Ding Dong" twice, and two thumb-sized beads fell to the ground.
"Huh? It's so beautiful" Yujing pinched it and handed it to Xie Jiang, exclaiming, "Lady, is this Haizhu?" ”
Xie Jiang didn't answer, he took it and held it under the lamp, the seemingly milky white beads, under the candlelight, actually faintly purple and blue streamers, Yujing's outstretched neck almost forgot to retract it, and said: "Mother... Lady, is this worth a lot of money? ”
"Jiu Gongzi said, a thousand gold" said in his mouth, raised his hand and threw it upward, Yujing screamed too late to let it out, Xie Jiang grabbed it with his backhand again, squinted and said, "This can still be played"
"Play?" This time, Yujing finally retracted his neck: "Does the lady want to play with this?" ”
"Hmm" Xie Jiang carried the bag and went to the bed, and ordered: "Let's rest, Mama is back, she has her own Beidou Yingmen"
The little girl sneered and moved the box to the cabinet again, locked it, and then went to sleep on the low couch in the outer hall.
The full moon gradually reached the middle of the sky, and the glow shrouded the houses in the deep alleys, which seemed extremely cold and lonely.
Outside the city of Wuyang.
The torch light illuminated the surroundings like daylight, Wang Jiu sat cross-legged on the velvet felt, and lazily asked the day: "When I got up early and went out of the city, I didn't see the distant mountains, wasn't he in the house last night?" ”
It's always inappropriate to hide from your master; If you confess, it's a bit of a betrayal of your brother. The eyelid spasmodic blinked a few times, hesitated for a while, and squeaked: "It's not that the son told him to get it..." Take that..."
"Take what?" Wang Jiu carried the hand of the jade pot, raised it towards the evening and said, "Don't swallow and spit out, reply neatly"
"Yes" Evening and night glanced around, the deputy envoy Tian went to the camp to rest, and the other guards drank and laughed around the fire, obviously no one paid attention to this; This way... Feng Guan Tiejian and the twelve brothers of the Wu family were all scattered in the dark, and there were only two people with the ninth prince in front of the bed.
There was no one around, and the day and night decided to tell the truth.
Putting the skewered roe deer on the fire, Sunrise squatted down and whispered: "The three of them are going to the son's house tonight and take the son's ornament."
The casual look on Wang Jiu's face suddenly turned into a smile, and he nodded and said, "Well, if you have the idea of stealing, you have the ability."
This person's tone was smooth and low, as if he really praised him, but he didn't dare to respond day and night.
After taking two sips of wine, Wang Jiu threw the jade pot on the felt carpet, got up and said, "Pack up your things and go back to the city"
This dense forest is about one or two hundred places away from Wuyang City, and there is a mountain bag in the middle, now go back, not to mention that it is not safe to cross the mountain and stream in the dark, even if it is all the way, you can't enter the city before dawn, not to mention that there is a privy envoy Tian.
Night and night were stunned for a moment, and said carefully: "It's too late to go back now, besides?" How to explain to Tan-sama"
"What do you explain" Wang Jiu put on a crane and raised his hand towards the forest, and more than a dozen figures rushed over in an instant, "Go and tell him, this son is impatient to sleep in the wilderness and has returned to the city."
Since the master has made up his mind, as a servant, he can only do it. I didn't care about the salute on the night and night, turned around and ran to the camp where the deputy envoy stayed, and here the ninth prince turned over and got on the horse, raised the whip to the outside of the forest, and said: "Go back to Wuyang"
