Chapter 4: Rolling pins

The Wang family has a large population, and the mansion covers a large area. Wang Xiao was led by Ying'er, and she turned dizzy before returning to her small courtyard.

The yard is not big, it is clean and elegant, there are some elm leaves and plums planted in the corner, and vines are crawling on the courtyard wall.

The hall sits in the north and faces south, the windows are bright and clean, and the layout is square - in Wang Xiao's words, it is 'two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom'.

In addition to Ying'er, there is also a rough maid named 'Knife'.

Because the Wang family is in the wine business, most of the Yahuan in the house is named after wine, and most of the other Yahuan are elegant names such as 'Autumn Dew, Tanxiang, Yuli, and Sangluo', but when she comes here, she only has the name of 'burning knife'.

Later, everyone thought that 'burning knives' was awkward, so they called her a knife. Wang Xiao heard Ying'er call her name yesterday, and thought it was a female guard.

Ying'er is a close-fitting girl, and her appearance and talent are first-class. The knife is a rough maid, with an ordinary appearance, although he has great strength, he will never know martial arts, which can be regarded as 'vain'.

When Wang Xiao and Ying'er returned, the knife had already brought food from the big kitchen and placed it on the table, and then they lit the fire and fetched water.

As soon as the two girls were busy, Ying'er asked Wang Xiao to reach out in the basin, she rubbed and washed him, and dried it carefully. This kind of behavior makes Wang Xiao feel like he is back in kindergarten.

When he sat down at the table, with the two maids standing behind him, he felt even more uncomfortable.

Yesterday was a 'newcomer' and he didn't dare to talk much, so he was fiddled with like a fool for a day.

At this time, he was already familiar with the environment, and he was not so afraid of life, so he beckoned the two maids to sit down and eat together.

Ying'er and the knife just shook their heads and refused, so Wang Xiao sprinkled and behaved like a fool.

Finally, the two maids were helpless and sat on the left and right with the dishes and chopsticks.

"It's all tired of logging, so let's eat together in the future." - Relying on his dementia, he decided to express his satisfaction in the language he was accustomed to.

"What is logging tiredness?"

"It's a family."

Ying'er put a chopstick dish into his bowl and said with a smile: "The young master is talking stupidly again......

After eating, the two maids divided the labor again with a tacit understanding, the knife was responsible for washing the dishes and cleaning up, and Ying'er was responsible for feeding Wang Xiaoguo preserved snacks.

Looking at the candied fruit in front of him, Wang Xiao resisted, shook his head, and leaned back.

This thing is high in sugar, and it is easy to gain weight if you eat too much, and it is easy to get diabetes. Refuse.

"Young master, you're like this again."

Ying'er seemed a little helpless and took her hand back.

Wang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

The next moment, I saw the little girl bite lightly, bit the candied fruit, peeled off the core quite carefully, and sent it to Wang Xiao's mouth.

Wang Xiao: "......"

It's unhygienic like this, sister.

Seeing Wang Xiao shaking her head again, Ying'er's face became a little puzzled.

"Young master, you're so strange today, you usually like to eat preserved fruits the most."

Wang Xiao had no choice but to open his mouth.

"The young master is so good."

After completing this feeding activity, Ying'er thought of one more thing, and smiled at Wang quite nervously: "Young master, where did you put the jade pendant?" Take it out. ”

"Jade pendant, it's very good."

He secretly said in his heart: "It seems that we must get some money as soon as possible and redeem this jade pendant." ”

Ying'er was still a little uneasy, and persuaded Wang Xiao to take out the jade pendant with kind words, but Wang Xiao just shook his head.

After a while, she saw her young master crawling under the bed, but he took out a rolling pin.

She had seen this rolling pin yesterday, and at that time it was only a boy who was active and liked to play with these sticks.

The next moment, Wang Xiao said something that shocked her - "Yesterday, someone used this to knock me on the head. ”

Under the candlelight, the master and servant glanced at each other, and their hearts were different.

Wang Xiao thought about it all day before deciding to tell Ying'er about it.

On the one hand, he needs Ying'er to tell him what happened before the incident; On the other hand, although he believed this girl in his heart, he still wanted to see her reaction.

Ying'er was really startled.

Yesterday, the second lady of Xifu called herself over, saying that she had chosen some tricks to make clothes for herself, so that she could wear them when the young master got married, and when she came back, she felt that there was something wrong with the young master, and this kind of thing happened!

Wang Xiao squinted slightly, only to see that the little girl in front of her was already shining with tears.

Then, Ying'er took him in her arms with a distressed face.

"Young Master...... Woohoo......"

Ying'er's hand was still trembling slightly, and she carefully touched the back of Wang Xiao's head.

When she touched a big bag, she couldn't hold back anymore and tears flowed down her face.

"Young Master...... Woo...... It's all Ying'er is not good, and she shouldn't be by the young master's side......"

Wang Xiao only felt that it was raining, he patted Ying'er on the back, and said, "I'm fine, but I can't remember who hit it." ”

"These bad things ......," Ying'er sobbed.

"But who is it?" Wang Xiao wondered.

The knife pushes the door in.

Seeing Ying'er hugging Wang Xiao and crying so much, the knife was startled, and she ran forward in three or two steps to hold Ying'er and asked, "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

Ying'er sobbed and cried: "Yesterday, the second lady of Xifu came to call me, so I brought the young master over, and when I got there, the young master said that he came to get the young master...... But...... Whining...... But when I came back, only the young master was sleeping in the garden, and the young master was partying with a group of friends, and I don't know which of those people was rotten...... Take this stick...... Hit our young master with this stick......"

The knife was also shocked when he heard it, and hugged Ying'er and cried.

There was a cry in the room.

Wang Xiao understood the general situation.

He had woken up in a garden the previous day, his head aching terribly, and when he looked at the rolling pin on the floor, he had a strange feeling that he knew at a glance that he had been killed by the stick.

Then the ancient woman named Ying'er led her through various winding paths, pavilions and pavilions...... After a night of psychological construction, he accepted the fact that 'he is now a demented child named Wang Xiao'.

For the time being, it is not appropriate to reveal the big secret of 'I am not demented now'.

The first priority is to find the murderer who killed him with a stick.

By the way, I have to get some money to redeem the jade pendant.

At present, the biggest suspicion should be this 'young master'.

So Wang Xiao asked Ying'er, "The one who beat me, Young Master Tang?" ”

Ying'er cried and said, "How could the young master beat you, it must be someone among his friends......"

She wanted to say, 'Someone has a bad heart', but she didn't want her young master to face the ugliness of the world, so she wiped her tears and said, "Maybe among those people, someone made a joke with the young master and lost his hand." ”

Wang Xiao was a little speechless.

Joke? That guy killed me.

But he couldn't say that he had been killed.

The boy sighed in his heart - the day before yesterday, he made a bang, and today he slapped him, it's really a bully! It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

"What friends does Young Master Tang have?" He asked.

Although Ying'er also felt aggrieved, she still took Wang Xiao's hands and said, "How can the young master be called 'Young Master', that's your cousin." ”

All right.

"Who are my cousin's friends?"

Ying'er shook her head: "How can those people know Ying'er, we won't play with them in the future, okay?" ”

Wang Xiao puffed out his cheeks, but still said "oh".

If someone wants to kill himself in this world, how can he solve it without playing with him?

But in front of her, she was just a little girl who cared about herself but didn't know why, Wang Xiao reached out and wiped the tears on her face, and said softly: "Ying'er doesn't cry, I'm fine." ”

"Ying'er didn't cry, but there was sand in her eyes."

As if she was afraid that Wang Xiao would not believe it, she said softly: "Is it okay for the young master to help Ying'er blow it?" ”

"Oh."

Wang Xiao felt that this kind of childlike conversation was silly, but he still blew helplessly into Ying'er's eyes.

But I saw that the girl's eyes were shining with tears.

He could see that there was genuine care and love in there......

"Do you want to return this rolling pin?" Wang Xiao waved the stick in his hand and asked.

He thought it was black humorβ€”like holding a fruit knife stabbed by a murderer and asking, "Do you need me to peel a pear for you?" ”

"Young master, you're talking stupid things again, how good it would be for us to keep the rolling dough."

Ying'er touched his head and said, in a tone like a kindergarten teacher.

And this matter is the only thing Wang Xiao can ask from Ying'er's mouth, and then he can only find out little by little.

Start by getting to know this unfamiliar environment......

In this era, there were no bright lights and ten miles of foreign fields at night, so the three of them gathered around the table with candles, did some embroidery with knives, and Ying'er held a book for Wang Xiao to read.

Wang Xiao listened to those half-understood classical Chinese, and found that although Ying'er always said, 'The young master is talking stupidly again', she didn't regard herself as a dementia in her heart.

She reads "Zuo Chuan", but she herself is only literate, but the broken sentences are confused.

Wang Xiao was amused in his heart, and only then did he think of a very important question, so he asked, "We, which dynasty?" ”

"Young master, you forgot again, our country name is 'Chu'."

Chu?

Wang Xiao was a little puzzled.

"Da Chuxing, King Chen Sheng?" He exhaled jokingly.

Ying'er took the book and tapped it lightly on his head, and said, "Young master, don't talk nonsense, Chen Sheng has passed more than a thousand years." ”

Oh, that's probably a parallel worldβ€”Wang Xiao thought to himself.

He wanted to ask a few more questions, but the knife looked at the sky and got up to serve water.

These two girls can know the time when they look up, and they are quite impressed by this skill.

Ying'er wiped Wang Xiao's face and took off her coat, but she sat down at the head of the bed and let him rest on her lap.

Yesterday, Wang Xiao didn't care about this, but today he was quite resistant.

Ying'er said, "Young master, you've been so strange for the past two days." ”

"Nothing." Wang Xiao had no choice but to lie down.

Ying'er pursed her lips and smiled, quite smug. She found that her young master was becoming more and more disobedient, but as long as he said, 'It's strange', he would be more obedient.

She gently pressed Wang Xiao's head and asked, "Does the wound on the back of the head still hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt."

"Will the young master dislike Ying'er in the future? So I don't want to be on the pillow. ”

Wang smiled: "In this way, you are uncomfortable and your legs are numb." ”

Ying'er was stunned.

Only then did she notice that he seemed to be retracting his strength, and his head was not as heavy as usual.

This young master, who has always been stupid, seems to be really sensible.

"Young Master, do you know? Everybody says you're stupid. But Ying'er thinks that you just grow up slowly, and one day, you can also slowly understand and become smarter. ”

- Named Ying'er Yahuan thought so in her heart.

After a while, she saw that Wang Xiao had closed her eyes and fallen asleep, and then she stood up cautiously.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Wang Xiao slowly opened his eyes, looked at the curtain on the top of the bed, and said to himself: "In this life, you should live well......
