Chapter 14: Beautiful Men
To survive in a place, you must abide by the rules of this place, and never act rashly until you find out the secret of the Mei family, this is the consensus reached by Anjiu and Meijiu.
In the evening of the same day, Mei Jiu followed Wencui to Tingsong Courtyard.
The courtyard was built on the slopes of the mountain, the foundation was two or three feet higher than the side point, and a stream flowed from the mountain, forming a small waterfall on the steep rock wall, and the water fell into the cold pool below, making a roaring sound.
As the name suggests, there are many ancient pines growing in the courtyard. I don't know if it's because there are pine trees near the cold pool, and the cold pool water exudes a faint pine aroma, which is fresh and refreshing.
"It just so happens that Lang Jun didn't live in, the slave and maid have already sent away the servants nearby, and the lady can bathe directly here." Wen Cui ordered the maid to put all the bathing utensils on the stone table on the shore.
Mei Jiu saw that there was still a thick quilt, and asked curiously, "Why do you need to prepare a quilt?" ”
"Lady test the water temperature." Wencui laughed.
Mei Jiu walked to the edge of the pool, and before he bent down, he felt the cold air blowing on his face, and he could imagine what the whole person would feel after entering!
"It's more comfortable to bathe at noon, and the lady misses it, so she has to grit her teeth and endure it, as long as she stays in it for a moment." Wencui said while undressing Mei Jiu, "It is said that this cold pool has the effect of washing the essence and cutting the marrow, ordinary people can't ask for it, and it is best for the lady to stay for an hour." ”
Mei Jiu only wore a middle coat, sat on the edge of the pool and slowly put his feet down, and his toes retracted violently as soon as they touched the water.
An Jiu said, "You can't do it, if you can't do it, I'll come!" ”
Mei Jiu hesitated for a moment, "Then come on." ”
"You think about how you feel before you go to bed, and you relax."
An Jiu controlled Mei Jiu's body when she was sleeping or unconscious, and she didn't know that the feelings of the two were actually related.
An Jiu speculated that even if she controlled Mei Jiu's body, as long as she felt a strong stimulation when she entered the water, Mei Jiu would definitely subconsciously want to control her body, and she would take advantage of this opportunity to practice how to fight with Mei Jiu for control of this body.
Sensing that Mei Jiu's body was gradually relaxing, Anjiu immediately tried to control his limbs.
At first, the body's response is very sluggish, and it is much more natural to move a few times.
Yasuya stayed for a while, concentrating on her efforts in case she violently resisted when she touched the water for a while.
"Lady, get into the water." Wencui urged.
An Jiu ignored it and slowly touched his foot to the water.
The biting coldness came from her toes, Mei Jiu shivered unconsciously, reflexively retracted her feet, and her consciousness was faithfully reflected on her body.
Anjiu lost control of her body again, and it seemed that as long as Meijiu was awake and conscious, it would be difficult for her to compete with her.
"Relax again." An Jiudao.
"Oh." Fortunately, Mei Jiu has not rested from exhaustion and sleepiness, so it is easy to relax.
Anjou took control of his body again.
As a result, Mei Jiu still took back control.
No matter how strong the spiritual power is, it can't be worth the God-given right? An Jiu does not believe in evil, and there is no word "retreat" in her life!
After trying four or five times repeatedly, An Jiu didn't find a way to control his body, but Mei Jiu became more and more energetic, so it became more and more difficult to find that kind of mental to physical relaxation.
Wencui stood aside, she was really anxious to see it a few times at the beginning, and she couldn't wait to kick it into the pool directly, but when she found that Fourteen Niang gritted her teeth and wanted to go into the water, she wanted to observe Fourteen Niang's temperament, so she didn't urge again.
Two moments have passed, Wencui was about to step forward to help, suddenly saw her back to the pool, the moon rose, the eyes reflected the pool water, when she looked at the water, as if even if there was a sea of swords and fire in front of her, she would never retreat half a step, Wencui paused, thinking in her heart, if she can't go down this time, she must go up to help!
However, the sight in front of her made Wencui very relieved - Fourteen Niang was slowly submerging her legs into the water.
At the same time, Mei Jiu was under tremendous mental pressure, the water was so cold that the soles of her feet were numb, like stepping on a sharp blade, and she could only be manipulated like a puppet, regardless of her will, and forced into the water.
The biting cold flowed into his limbs, and An Jiu's heart moved, concentrating his mental strength to feel the stinging pain in every part of his body.
When ordinary people encounter physical pain, distraction is a good way to relieve pain, but the omnipresent pain can make An Jiu's spirit feel the existence of every inch of this body.
The pain in her body was magnified, and she was wary of Mei Jiu's sudden resistance, so even in the cold water, her forehead was still covered with sweat.
When he first entered the water, his whole body was like a knife cut, but after staying in it for a while, he found that his whole body began to warm, and the water was like a warm spring breeze, gently soothing the dull skin.
I don't know how long it took for Wencui's voice to sound in An Jiu's ears, "Lady, an hour has passed, don't stay any longer." ”
Yasuku got up from the water and walked straight to the table to shake off the thin quilt and wrap it around him.
A few simple actions made Wencui see the difference, when she took off her clothes before entering the water, she was still shy, but now she is naked out of the water, isn't it strange that she has changed in a short period of time?
Wencui took a dry towel cloth to wipe An Jiu's hair, and her voice was full of joy, "The lady has been in the pool for an hour, and it is best to take medicinal soup to warm up at this time, let's go back to the house?" ”
"Hmm." An Jiu responded.
Wencui hung her head, her heart was still the same voice, but the tone of her voice was completely different, and what was even more strange was that it was clearly the same person, but now she didn't dare to raise her head and look at ......
The other maids also seemed to feel this atmosphere, and they didn't dare to breathe along the way, and the night was cold and silent, only the sound of the fabric rustling.
Back in the house, Wencui asked for a medicinal soup.
An Jiu hung his head and took the medicine soup quietly.
Wencui pondered how to get her to say a few more words in order to understand her situation.
As soon as An Jiu put down the medicine cup, Wencui diligently handed over the handkerchief, "The slave and the lady told the lady what to pay attention to tomorrow, right?" ”
An Jiu paused for a moment, covered his mouth and yawned, and when he opened his eyes again, his watery eyes did not show the slightest harshness, and he muttered a little coquettishly, "Don't you say no when you get up early tomorrow to make up?" I'm so sleepy right now that I can't remember. ”
Wencui was dumbfounded, watching the man climb onto the bed, and then said in a daze, "Okay." ”
"It's dangerous! How do you know that Wencui has seen through us? Mei Jiu asked.
An Jiu concentrated for two hours, slightly tired, "The difference between a fool and a genius is obvious, you are as blind as you are in the eyes of others!" ”
"Can't you speak if you're not sarcastic?" Mei Jiu was dissatisfied.
An Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to her, and he was self-nourishing.
Mei Jiu was also a little tired from tossing, so he closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.
The night is dark and the dreams of the two souls are intertwined.
Mei Jiu felt the extreme coldness from the fragmented picture, there was no sun, no flowers, no hope, only people who were constantly dying and scarred.
An Jiu also saw a boring but peaceful life.
Next.
As soon as the sky was hazy, Wencui called her to get up.
An Jiu was not busy seizing the body, she knew that last night's victory was only a small step, and could not completely dominate, otherwise Mei Jiu was wary, she must hide her ambitions until one day she found a way to drive Mei Jiu away, or be able to control this body as she wants.
A maid came over to help Mei Jiu comb her hair, and Wencui explained the things to pay attention to when apprenticing today.
In fact, it is very simple, it is to kowtow to serve tea, as for opening an ancestral hall to worship ancestors, it is mostly someone else's business, Mei Jiu only needs to kowtow and burn incense, and follow behind the master throughout the whole process.
Generally, in large families, only the eldest woman can participate in the ancestor worship, and her own daughter cannot enter the ancestral hall to burn incense, but the Mei family treats everyone equally, only the concubines, not men and women.
"Sister."
As soon as he went out, Mei Jiu saw Mei Ruyan coming towards him, and her bright smile was very infectious.
Mei Jiu saw that she reached over to hold herself, so she suddenly remembered An Jiu's warning and immediately avoided it.
Mei Ruyan's hand fell short and smiled awkwardly, "Let's go together." ”
Mei Ruyan has been in a very good mood for the past two days, she has jumped from a brothel lady to the lady of a big family, or a concubine, all of this is stained with Mei Jiu's light, she is very grateful in her heart, and wants to have a good relationship with Mei Jiu, but she didn't expect that since she came back, Mei Jiu has avoided her everywhere, what is going on?
She decided to find a chance to talk to Mei Jiu.
Hearing that Songyuan was only a short distance away from the ancestral hall, the two walked over, the atmosphere was a little dull, Mei Ruyan wanted to find a topic, "Sister, yesterday there was an elder who decided to accept his cousin as an apprentice, why did he suddenly say that he was not selected?" ”
Obviously, this topic was not very well chosen.
Mei Jiu stiffened and squeaked, "Yes...... yes, I don't know. ”
Mei Ruyan noticed the abnormality, as if she didn't see Mei Jiu's nervousness, and immediately changed the topic with a smile, "By the way, how long has my sister been sitting in the cold pool?" ”
"About an hour." Mei Jiu replied a little weakly, at that time her senses seemed to be all occupied by An Jiu, except for the moment when she just entered the water, she hardly felt any pain.
Mei Ruyan looked at her in shock, "Sister is amazing!" I sat in it for less than a cup of tea before I almost fainted. ”
Mei Ruyan was cold and cold when she was a fire girl, but the cold pool water is completely different from the ice water in winter, the cold gradually soaks into the bone marrow and does not numb, and the pain is always clear.
Mei Ruyan said excitedly, "It's very uncomfortable when I soak in it, but now I'm relaxed, the spring water is a good thing, my sister must have benefited a lot from being in it for an hour, I congratulate my sister." ”
"You don't say I don't care, I'm really refreshed today." Umekudo.
Mei Ruyan saw that Mei Jiu was finally willing to talk to her normally, and was about to take the opportunity to chat a few more words, but heard Wencui say, "Two ladies, it's almost time to the ancestral hall, please be silent." ”
Mei Ruyan had no choice but to give up.
As soon as the group walked down the stairs, they saw a man in plain clothes lying on the horizontal straight of an ancient ginkgo tree, his black hair and plain clothes hanging down like flowing clouds.
When the man heard the footsteps, he turned over, his black hair half-hid his eyebrows, and his eyes were clear, and he smiled, his eyes shining with anticipation, revealing his neat and white teeth.
