Chapter 57: Candlelight Night Talk

In the bedroom, Shan Zhuokun walked into the door under the guidance of the two maids of Chunxue and Xia He, looked around, and saw that the furniture in the room was extremely elegant, a table, a couch, a bed and a cabinet were all made of mahogany, and the hollow patterns were carved on them, all of which symbolized the auspicious dragon and phoenix and unicorn. In the corner on the left side of the room is a guqin table made of black wood, on which is placed a very delicately made boya qin. On the right, there is a four-story mahogany shelf with many old-fashioned books slanted inside.

On the table was a silver candlestick with two lit red candles on it. In the flickering light of the candlelight, the atmosphere in the room seemed extremely hazy, like a dream.

"My lord, drink tea." After making the bed for Shan Zhuokun, Chunxue came to the table and picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea.

Shan Zhuokun took the teacup and said with a smile: "Thank you, Chunxue." ”

Chunxue didn't expect the high-flying adult to be so polite, and couldn't help blushing. Bow your head and stop talking.

Shan Zhuokun glanced at her, and suddenly felt extremely funny in his heart. I didn't expect this girl to be so shy, just to say thank you and be shy like this. If she were to be put in the 21st century, I don't know how she would react to those bizarre things?

"By the way, Chunxue, Xia He, since you are going to follow me in the future, then this title must also be changed." After taking a sip of tea, Shan Zhuokun sat down at the table leisurely. Since you are not sleepy yet, it is better to have a candle night talk with the two girls.

Xia He has always been clever, and when he heard him say this, he hurriedly said, "Your Excellency, you say, we remember it." ”

Shan Zhuokun nodded: "In the future, you can call me sir, or you can use another name,'M."

’。 ”

Anyone who has read a book and been exposed to English knows that this 'M

That's what Mr. meant. The reason why Shan Zhuokun asked the maid to use this word to call herself was purely to appear that he was knowledgeable.

However, he forgot one very important thing, that is, that Britain had not yet been established during the Tang Dynasty, and this English made people feel that ducks listened to thunder, and they didn't understand what it meant at all.

Sure enough, soon Chunxue said suspiciously: "Mister? Is this Turkic or Xiongnu? What do you mean, sir? ”

When Shan Zhuokun heard her say this, his vanity was instantly satisfied, and he immediately put on the appearance of a sincere and instructive gentleman, and said patiently: "Miste is in English, which means sir." ”

Chunxue and Xia He glanced at each other, and their expressions were even more puzzled. As women, they don't read much, let alone in a puzzling place like the UK.

"Eagle Country? Could it be that the people of this place have two wings and can fly like eagles? Xia He said curiously.

She had heard people say that in ancient times, people did not walk on the ground like they do now, but built nests in trees and flew around every day. It was only because of the changes in the world and the degradation of wings that they had to become what they are now.

Thinking of this, Xia He's heart was even more excited, if there were really people who could fly like birds, how good it would be. As long as you live your life as you like every day, you don't have to be tired by life anymore, and you can live by watching other people's faces all day long.

"Well, that makes sense." Shan Zhuokun couldn't help but admire her creative imagination, "But the people there can't fly, they are just like us, they all walk on their feet." ”

"Oh, I can't fly." Chunxue and Xia He heard him say this, and they unconsciously showed disappointed expressions at the same time.

It's really strange, since you can't fly, why is it called 'Eagle Country'? Could it be that the eagles there are expensive?

Of course, they would never say these words, after all, they had just met, and it would not be good if Mr. felt that he was uneducated.

Shan Zhuokun saw that Chun Xue and Xia He were no longer talking, and knew that these two little girls must be regretting what they had just said wrong, so he changed the topic:

"Anyway, if you're idle, you're idle, why don't I show you two palmistry?"

Chunxue and Xia He both smiled suddenly, and couldn't wait to stretch out their hands in front of Shan Zhuokun while saying yes repeatedly.

They had asked someone to see their palms before, and they knew that although this method seemed simple, it was extremely accurate.

Shan Zhuokun took Chunxue's hand, first identified them on the belly of his fingers one by one, and then said: "You girl is so strange, you don't even have a fight." There are very few people like you. ”

Chun Xueden showed a surprised expression and hurriedly asked, "Sir, is it good or bad to be like me?" ”

Shan Zhuokun closed his eyes and calculated for a moment, and when he opened his eyes, he said again: "Okay, you are a rich and noble life." And, you see, your lifeline and love line are very smooth, and you will definitely be able to marry into a rich man's family in the future. ”

Chunxue showed a shy expression, for those of them who are maids, unless they are willing to be small for each other, the chance of marrying into a rich family is zero.

But even so, because of Mr. just now's words, she still had infinite expectations in her heart.

She lost her father when she was a child, and it was her mother who single-handedly pulled the two sisters to adulthood. If they could marry into a rich family in the future, then their mother and sister would be able to live a good life. If that's the case, it's worth it for her to give.

Xia He looked at Chunxue, and couldn't help but feel a trace of jealousy in his heart, as if what Shan Zhuokun said would be fulfilled immediately.

"Sir, and me, you can help me take a look." She stretched her arms long and urged without stopping.

Shan Zhuokun observed his words and looks, knowing that these two girls must have been convinced of his words, and he couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart. He originally planned to shorten the distance between the two sides in this way, and he could also get more careful attention in the future.

However, Xia He's palmistry still shook his body, and even showed a shocked expression. I saw that in her delicate palm, all the palm prints were intertwined with ups and downs, like a natural net.

To be honest, he had never seen this kind of strange palmistry before, but he had heard from the master that this kind of palmistry was called Dou Xing Pattern, and such a person had a life of ups and downs, experienced great sorrow that others did not have, and finally obtained great joy that others could not have.

It is said that legends arise in troubled times, is it possible that this little girl who is not amazing will also become a person with a story in the future?

Shan Zhuokun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Sir, are my handprints bad?" Seeing that the other party was looking at him silently, Xia He really couldn't hold back the emotions in his heart, and asked bluntly.

"Xia He, are you really the daughter of a poor family?" Shan Zhuokun asked.

Xia He's body shook violently when he heard this, and a confused expression suddenly appeared on his face. Unexpectedly, he deliberately concealed his life experience for so many years, and finally it was discovered.

Chunxue looked at Xia He in surprise, not understanding why Shan Zhuokun would say this. Although she didn't know Xia He's true background before, through the change in the other party's expression at this moment, she was still sure that what Mr. said was true.

However, as sisters for many years, she had to find a way to protect each other.

Thinking of this, Chunxue fell to the ground on both knees, and tried her best to excuse the other party:

"Sir, Xia He and the slave maid are from the same village and have grown up together since childhood."

Shan Zhuokun looked at Chunxue and sighed in his heart, sure enough, there is true love in the world, even a thousand years ago.

It's just that Xia He hasn't answered his question yet. Thinking of this, he looked up at Xia He, who was silently staring at him. Through the other party's eyes, he could feel the strong antagonistic power hidden in them.
