Chapter 8 The Past Follows the Wind

My lips trembled in horror.

I pinched my legs while crying, and some of the numbness became worse after some sensations, and I could barely stand, but I couldn't bear it anymore.

Twisting her ass and legs like epilepsy, she bounced and crawled all the way back to Aunt Jean's house, hiding in her bed and shivering.

Aunt Qin came back from a busy day and found me shaking into a sieve in the bed, and touched me with her hand to make me feel hot, and I was scared to start a fever.

I was seriously ill, and I kept calling Po's name in a daze.

None of us cares, they all think that I look good at Bao and stick to him.

Po also came to see me a few times, and every time I hid and refused to see people, Aunt Qin thought I was shy, thinking that I was precocious and would like people at the age of six.

For a while I became a joke in the pear orchard, I didn't dare to explain, I was afraid of being skinned...

After I got better, I often showed favor to Bao, one was afraid of him, and the other was to please him.

He didn't tear it down either, and he treated me very well.

In the years that followed, I slowly understood that this pear orchard was not an ordinary place of wind and moon, it was a trading center for the intelligence of various countries, and everyone in this garden had their own story and purpose.

They are attached to the pear orchard to live, and the pear orchard is attached to the troubled times to live.

····· It's hard to live·····

Po hasn't been out of the "far door" for a long time.

We never talked about the past when we were children.

He never seemed to shy away from what he was doing in front of me, and even seemed to deliberately guide me to everything about the pear orchard.

I didn't ask why, and I didn't dare ask.

Only this time will he be able to come back alive?

I didn't sleep well all night, I got up late in the morning, and when I woke up, I saw Shengge's big face in front of me, which startled me, and I turned over and wanted to sleep for a while, but she dragged me up from the bed.

"Your stomach doesn't hurt anymore?"

Sheng Ge touched his stomach: "It's still a little painful." ”

"The dancers can't take care of us these days, so let me sleep more."

I wanted to get back to bed again.

"The clothes on the table are fine snowflake brocade, made for you?"

I remembered that I was going to find Miss Linglan today, so I sat up.

While washing, he told Sheng Ge that he was going to accompany the girl to the house tomorrow to wait.

Sheng Ge was listening while snorting melon seeds.

"You eat melon seeds every day, be careful that your teeth come out of the mark, it will be very ugly when the time comes, let alone the Oiran, no matter what Kui will not be able to take your turn."

Sheng Ge threw me with melon seeds disdainfully: "Don't worry, even if I can't be an Oiran, I can protect you." ”

After I washed up, I started trying on clothes, and Shengge came over to help me.

My skin is not white, and I am even darker under this begonia white dress.

Sheng Ge looked at my gray face, and bent over with a smile: "Who is this dress?" ”

I'm sad face, don't you have a brain? Whoever I go for, this dress is who's...

The clothes are a little long, and it seems that Linglan's maid has longer legs than mine, and her skin is whiter and tenderer.

Alas, I knew I was not in the limelight.

Sheng Ge pulled me to the bronze mirror, put on simple makeup for me, and combed my hair in a refreshing bun.

"It's much better..." I looked at myself in the mirror and comforted myself.

"What do you want to be so good-looking, accompany the girl, naturally you have to be a good foil, the darker you are, the whiter the girl will be, the less good-looking you are, the more outstanding the girl will be."

I thank you, it's so comforting.

"I don't think you look like a person from the Central Plains? Are your fathers and mothers all from the Warring States? ”

Where do I know...

"Who knows, I... Hmmm·· A-Niang is a native of the Central Plains, and it is said that she is one in a million beauties..."

"Daddy····· I don't know, anyway, it's not a benefactor who came to the pear orchard. ”

I'm a little sad, the word dad is a little far away from me, maybe he doesn't know that there is such a person as me, and he doesn't know about Auntie's death...

Otherwise, why has no one ever come to me?

Sheng Ge looked at me carefully: "You have slender eyes, a high nose bridge, and a little dark skin tone, but you look like a Southern Tang Dynasty." ”

"Do the Southern Tang people look like this? Don't bully me, I haven't seen the Southern Tang people! ”

I glared at her.

This curse on me, I know that the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty are short, and they joke about my short legs.

I reached out to tickle her, and she was almost outlaughed by the scratch: "Wrong, wrong." ”

"Hurry up... When I come back, I have to find Aunt Qin to change my clothes..."

I packed up my sheng song and went to see Linglan refreshed.

Miss Linglan frowned when she saw the ill-fitting clothes on my body.

"Are you afraid to go out?"

"Aunt Qin said that you can just look at your sister's face and act, don't be afraid."

Linglan seemed to be quite close to me and held my hand: "I am more stable than when I was a child."

Was I naughtier when I was a kid than I am now?

"Tomorrow's banquet for the adults of Zuo County is very elegant, and there is not so much red tape to pay attention to."

I nodded yes.

"You've been learning the rules for a long time, and it's okay to think about it."

I smiled and nodded yes.

"Just put away the piano for me, if there is anything you take care of, I'll deal with it."

I smiled and nodded yes.

Linglan looked at me smiling a little stiffly, and frowned again: "Go change your clothes, is there time?" ”

A beauty is a beauty, and she looks good with a frown.

"It's too late, girl, don't worry."

"Go, you will come over at noon tomorrow, eat lunch here, and I will tell you about the process of tomorrow's feast."

I exited the girl's room, stuck out my tongue, and rubbed my smiling face as if I had lifted my burden, which was also physical work to keep smiling.

Aunt Qin's clothes changed quickly, so she sent them over that night, and tried to fit them very well.

The next day, Shengge was out of the house early in the morning, and I don't know why she was so energetic, and she got up earlier than me every time.

It wasn't until noon that I was leaving, and she came back sweaty.

"What are you doing here?"

"Practice, what else? After the New Year, let's send the two of us to death together? ”

"Didn't you say you couldn't be an Oiran and still be able to protect me?"

Sheng Ge stretched out his hand to pat me on the head: "You talk a lot." ”

Seeing that my hair had been hairpinned, he frowned and put down his hand to look at it for a long time, then shook his head and pulled me back to the house: "You can't do this with your hair." ”

I finished watching the two small balls of my hairpin, where is it not good, it is a standard maid's head.

"Your face is not round, and your hairpin hair is very ugly."

"Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to be a good foil?"

Sheng Ge put down my hair and re-hairpined: "A good foil doesn't make you embarrassed." ”

"Linglan has a gentle and elegant temperament, wouldn't it be a shame for you to be like this. If you don't like to smirk, then be heroic, and when the time comes, you can just protect her in the back. It can highlight her temperament without embarrassing yourself. ”

Makes sense, how I didn't think of it.

Compared to Shengge, I'm really stupid, or people's goal is to be an oiran, I'm a maid for others, but if it goes on like this, being a maid for others is also a stupid girl.

Sheng Ge looked at me and sighed: "You're not stupid... You're just too cautious, you don't want to come out, it's right if you want to be clumsy, but there's no need to be so wronged. ”

When her mind was hit by her, I didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and I was quite embarrassed to swallow the words I was going to praise back into my stomach, piling up a standard flattering smirk.

"It's ugly, don't laugh, it doesn't match your current image."

I rolled my eyes, and you had a lot to do.
