Chapter 5 (5)
Koshikei Hashimoto is not an elegant person. I remember when she was young, her parents asked her to learn riding and archery martial arts just to strengthen her body, but she accidentally raised a crazy girl.
Although she also reads and learns calligraphy, plays the piano and paints, in the end she is not good at it, or she is not interested, she only likes to play with Yue Fengtong.
Father, mother, uncles and aunts would always touch her head and sigh: "Qiaoqiao was born with such a posture, but he always likes to dance with knives and guns, and in the future, which son of a family will dare to marry Qiaoqiao in the name of a beauty." ”
She only shrugged her shoulders and said, "I'm worried about what I'm doing now, someone who is destined will meet me sooner or later." ”
Yue Fengtong also said on the side: "The man who rushed to ask for marriage just by looking at his appearance is too superficial and unreliable. In my opinion, it is a good thing that Xiqiao is proficient in martial arts, not only can he see whether they are sincere, but even if they are wronged in her husband's family in the future, they can fight a few battles with real knives and guns, and they will not suffer too much loss. ”
"You two are big ghosts." Although my father said this, he was happier than anyone else, "But what Tong'er said is true, our family Qiaoqiao naturally can't be bullied by anyone." ”
They have been indulging her, not letting her learn all kinds of miscellaneous rules and pretend to be a noble lady, and also said that the royal family does not have so many so-called rules, and the reason why these things are popular in the imperial capital Linyang is just that those big families think that they can be noble through this. Although everyone likes a well-behaved daughter-in-law, if their family Qiaoqiao is really not looked down upon by anyone because they have no rules and are not dignified, they simply don't marry.
She was stunned when she heard it, and after thinking about it, she said embarrassedly, "It should be ...... Marry or marry, it is impossible for all men in the world to be so shallow. ”
The father was stunned and quickly burst out laughing. Her face became redder and redder, and Yue Fengtong, who pinched it and laughed non-stop, ran away angrily.
Her "elegance" was forced to learn by Fu Yiyi after she arrived at Shuijingxuan. Even though she is more beautiful than a fairy, her behavior does not look like a lady's style at all, and I don't know how many times she was beaten by Fu Yiyi before her palms and head changed.
Later, the meridians were abolished, and it was already very good to be alive, but they were not allowed to do too large movements. Therefore, even if you remember a lot of martial arts moves, it is difficult for your body to function.
She has completely become an "elegant" person, it is difficult to walk without elegance, she can only take small steps, slowly raise her hands and legs, and it is easy to lose consciousness in pain if the amplitude is a little larger, and her physical strength is even worse than before.
After not being able to practice martial arts, in order to maintain her figure, she had to reduce most of her food intake, so she ate a lot less, and the combination of meat and vegetables at every meal was appropriate. In the past, Shui Jingxuan's people would take care of everything for her, but now that there is no one else around, she can only rely on her own judgment and memory.
The dish was served in the room where she was resting, but there were three more people besides her and Fu Xijing. However, after Qin Xuan, Si Yan and An Yi entered the room, she didn't even look at it, and sat directly at the table to observe the dishes.
There are meat, vegetarian and tofu, it can't be better. She should eat more vegetables and a moderate amount of fish and tofu, although she was hungry twice today, but now that it is evening, it is better not to eat other meat and staple foods.
Yue Xiqiao picked up the chopsticks and tasted the fish first, and then frowned. I tasted the greens again, my brows furrowed even tighter, and then I began to look around the room.
Fu Xijing motioned for all three of them to go over and sit down, and he also sat beside Yuexi Bridge. It's just that as soon as he sat down, she got up, walked to the small desk by the window, picked up the teapot and poured a small glass of water, drank a little first, and then drank it all in one gulp after frowning.
Yue Xiqiao pursed his lips, made sure that there were no other teapots in the room, and then walked to the door with the one in his hand.
Seeing that she wanted to run so boldly, Si Yan, who had just given her medicine, immediately dodged in front of her to block the way, and said sharply: "What is Miss going to do?" ”
Yuexi Bridge stopped, and after relieving himself, he looked at her: "Change the water." ”
"This tea has just been burned, so there is no need to change it." Si Yan frowned slightly and said, "Miss Fei can't even drink tea?" ”
"That table of dishes is all oily, and a plate of ordinary vegetables has such a heavy salt on it, how can you eat it?" Her face was very unhappy, and her tone became more and more rushed, "If you don't use water three times, this kind of thing can't be eaten at all." It can only be water, not tea. ”
Si Yan was a little stunned: "Why are you ......?"
"'So many things'?" Yuexi Bridge snorted lightly, "If the internal force is still there, I don't need to worry so much." But now that I can't practice martial arts, there is no way to guarantee that I won't grow a trace of meat after eating so much oil and salt. Don't you know what I'm here to do for your son-in-law, just to make me grow into a fat pig and be rejected and slaughtered, don't you? ”
Si Yan choked for a moment, looked at Fu Xijing, and snorted angrily after receiving the instruction: "Even if this is the case, Miss should understand her identity - this door is not something you can get out of if you want to." ”
After she finished speaking, she didn't take the teapot in Yue Xiqiao's hand, and turned around to open the door directly, but a contemptuous sentence came from behind her at this time: "I just thought that this lowly body couldn't move the girl, let alone anyone in this room, so I had to bow down to it." ”
Si Yan was slightly stunned, snorted coldly, slammed the door and left.
Yuexiqiao stood at the door for a while, silently poured himself a cup of tea, and walked back after drinking.
As soon as she sat down, Fu Xijing said to her: "Qiao'er wants to eat, wear, and do whatever you want to eat in the future, just tell me directly." ”
Yue Xiqiao lowered his eyes and looked at the few pieces of fish meat that had been stripped of the bones in the plate, blinked his eyes, reluctantly picked up a piece and ate a piece and said to him: "Then I'll make a list for you to prepare in advance." ”
Fu Xijing smiled lightly, raised her hand and touched her sideburns: "I never knew that Qiao'er cared so much about her appearance and body before. ”
Yuexiqiao glanced at him: "I was not afraid of losing before, but now I have nothing but this face and this body." Thinking that it was too long since he had eaten, his mouth was bitter and sad, and Yue Xiqiao couldn't help but eat another piece of fish, "A prostitute wants to eat, but he can't rely on anything else." ”
Fu Xijing couldn't help frowning, the two people beside him who seemed to only know how to bury their heads in eating, Qin Makeup and An Yi, naturally didn't forget to listen to them, so they couldn't help but glance at Yuexi Bridge.
For some reason, they were obviously big living people, but after entering this house, they were not noticed by Yuexi Bridge at all. She seemed to act as if the two of them didn't exist, and originally Gongzi wanted to introduce a few of them to her, but she didn't care, there was no need to speak.
Although they are both Fu Xijing's henchmen, and they are people who must be brought on every trip, the two men are different from Si Yan, and they can't bear to sneer in the face of such a beauty. If you are lucky enough to see a beautiful woman smile, it is also a happy thing.
After eating the fish on the plate, Yue Xiqiao felt that he was too guilty, and hurriedly stopped Fu Xijing from helping her remove the fish bones, dropped the chopsticks and shrank her shoulders and stopped moving. Fu Xijing looked at her cautiously wide eyes and only felt that it was too cute, so he persuaded: "Qiao'er doesn't need to be so alarmed, and it won't be in the way to eat more oil and salt once in a while." ”
Yue Xi Qiao just shook his head: "There are only zero and countless times of indulgence. ”
Si Yan quickly came back with clean water, and specially brought her three bowls for her to "go through three times". Although Yuexiqiao was satisfied, he didn't say a word of thanks, and quickly put down his chopsticks and left.
Seeing that she was standing by the window, Fu Xijing ordered several of them to withdraw the table together, close the door again, and then walk towards her.
Standing for half an hour after dinner is a rule that Shui Jingxuan can't move, and she has been used to it for so many years. In the past, she would practice the flute when she was still standing, but this time she was able to walk ...... I was in a hurry to get it out, and I didn't bother to take the flute.
The bitter bamboo flute, which was also named by him, was her favorite object and was also used as a weapon. For someone like her, who is not interested in any musical instrument, if it weren't for the flute he made and gave by himself, she wouldn't have gone out of her way to learn to play it.
Whenever she stood in front of the window and played the flute, her true qi would always wander around the room with the sound of the flute, lifting the gauze tent and beaded curtains behind her. Later, he named the flute "Tilting Yarn", and the tassels on the flute were a pair of those on his fan.
It's fifteen, but it's a cloudy day. Tiangong didn't want people to see the full moon, as if he was deliberately telling her that from today onwards, she would never be able to achieve perfection in her life.
Fu Xijing approached her from behind, knowing that she definitely didn't want to be hugged at this moment, thought about it, took out the flute from her sleeve and shook it beside her.
Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the dumping yarn, Yue Xiqiao turned his head, his eyes almost lit up, and he immediately snatched it from his hand: "Why did you take it out?" ”
"Qiao'er can't put down this flute, and he has to take it out and play a few songs every day, so he naturally puts it in a conspicuous place." He smiled slightly, "I saw it last night. ”
"Did you bring the makeup I put on the dressing table? It is filled with jewelry that I usually don't want to wear, and it's very expensive. She said while touching the flute, although she didn't look at him at all, "There are also a few Fu Chang brocade clothes, all of which took more than half a year to complete, I deliberately put a single wardrobe, and the wardrobe is also in a very conspicuous place, have you brought it too?" ”
"......" Fu Xijing could only close his eyes and smile without losing his bearing, "I will buy a better one for Qiao'er in the future." ”
The smile on the bridge surface disappeared instantly, and when he raised his eyes to look at him, he already frowned and wanted to say something, but he stopped in time, thought about it and sighed, and turned to the side: "It's me who is presumptuous." ”
Fu Xijing raised her eyes and saw that her expression suddenly became a lot lonely, so she stepped forward and hugged her in her arms: "In the past, I made Qiao'er suffer a lot of grievances, and I will give Qiao'er what she wants in the future, Qiao'er doesn't have to be afraid, let alone feel inferior." ”
Yue Xiqiao shook his head in his arms, suddenly thought of something, raised his head and looked at him: "You...... Don't you think that I will be wronged if I have a miscarriage? ”
Fu Xijing's body trembled, lowered his eyes to look at her, and only spoke after a while: "Qiao'er doesn't have to think about the past anymore, I will definitely treat you well in the future." ”
She couldn't help but sneer: "You say you will give me whatever I want, what about home?" ”
He frowned slightly: "Qiao'er should know that I don't have the divine power to defy the sky, and I can't resurrect your parents and clansmen." ”
Yuexi Bridge pushed him away with force: "Don't think much about the past, I have long since ceased to be attached to the home in Linyang." He shook his head and closed his eyes: "I made it clear to you before that my current home is Qionghua Lou Shuijingxuan, and only there will I not be wronged in the slightest." Since you are willing to give me everything, it is better to send me back again, let me be the top card of Shui Jingxuan, and don't come to see me again in the future. ”
"Don't say that again." He was cold, but he didn't look at her.
Yue Xiqiao frowned, and could only take a step back: "If you really want to come, it's not impossible, it's just like a few years ago, I don't care about taking one more guest." ”
Fu Xijing suddenly smiled: "In the past two years, has Qiao'er taken over other men?" ”
"......," she pursed her lips, "not before, doesn't mean there won't be in the future." Shui Jingxuan provides me with food and clothing, and gives me the best everything, so I naturally have to do more things, and use this face and this body to make more money, so as not to be worthy of the great grace of Lord Fu Xuan. ”
Fu Xijing sighed with a smile, pulled her into his arms and hugged her, lowered his head and said in her ear: "The idea is good, but if Qiao'er's body can be easily bought with only money, it will no longer be worth much in the future." ”
He hugged her tightly this time, her feet were off the ground, and the whole person was picked up by him, but she was powerless to struggle, so she could only endure the pain and curse in her heart.
Fu Xijing just carried her to the bed, helped her take off her shoes with his own hands, and then said: "Qiao'er's body, how can it be open to men other than me." ”
Yue Xiqiao swallowed "I haven't stood up for enough hours" back into his stomach, and as soon as he was put on the bed, he immediately stayed away from him: "You really think of yourself too much, even if I can't open it myself, can't I use medicine." ”
To be honest, she had hardly seen Fu Xijing angry, it seemed that when he was angry, he just laughed, or didn't make expressions, in short, he didn't get angry. But he laughs from time to time, which is equivalent to laughing no matter how good or bad he is, and he can't see a more specific look when he is covered by a mask, so it is sometimes difficult for her to judge his mood.
Now, for example, he looked at her with a smile, and she didn't even know whether her body should go numb or relax at this moment.
In the end, she decided to be numb, and when she saw that he had also taken off his shoes and went to bed, she retreated again and again, and was so frightened that she turned over and tried to climb out of bed, but unexpectedly he was pressed on the bed in an instant.
Both wrists were pressed, Yue Xiqiao sighed and simply collapsed his whole body on the bed, and closed his eyes in resignation.
"Qiao'er always needs me." He exhaled hot air in her ear, "I know that I can't escape, but I still want to retreat, isn't it intentionally to arouse my interest?" ”
Yue Xiqiao twitched the corner of his mouth: "You should also know that there is a reaction that is subconscious, and you don't need to think about it at all, it's this body that doesn't want you to touch it, so you won't want to run away in the end, just run away." ”
Sure enough, after he took off his mask, he began to pick up her clothes, although he was picking it up behind him, she was still afraid of accidentally seeing his face, so she could only close her eyes tightly.
After taking off his coat, he left her an undergarment and extinguished the candle in the house. She also realized that this dress had been changed from the inside out, and the middle coat was no longer the one she had torn last night.
He didn't do much after he put out the candle, but hugged her from behind, his forehead against the back of her neck and slowly closed his eyes.
He didn't have that interest, so she naturally didn't let him be interested anymore, so she kept her mouth shut, although she was not sleepy, but she couldn't do anything else at night, so she could only try to sleep.
He remained silent, breathing steadily, until she thought he might be asleep before suddenly saying, "At least for now, I don't want to let you go." ”
She blinked, but didn't speak.
"Maybe it will be a while before I lose interest in Qiao'er at all, and I want to abandon Qiao'er." He continued, "Even if that time comes, I won't kill you, and I'll send the bridge back properly." ”
She was panicked for a moment, but she still didn't speak. You can't say no directly, but if you don't say anything, you don't say yes.
"When I came to Shangzhou this time, I found that Qiao'er had changed a lot." He laughed again, "I don't know if this is what you are, or if it's just to be angry with me." ”
"Now that the Demon Sect is almost over, you still have the leisure to think that I am angry with you." She also sneered and sarcastically said, "Dog man, you suddenly pretend to be garlic like this, do you want to use me to do something to decency?" ”
Fu Xijing was silent for a long time before hugging her body tightly, and finally sighed: "Let's sleep first." ”
“……”
Slowly, he seemed to lose consciousness, and the arms around her lost their original strength.
Yuexi Bridge looked at the endless void in the dark for a long time, and then the corners of his lips lifted slightly, and he closed his eyes.
