CHAPTER XX
In the carriage, Xin Yao sat there and rubbed her hands uneasily, thinking that the national teacher had already ordered his subordinates, so don't worry about it, and when she got off the carriage in the city, I would wait for her at the city gate.
Twilight Liuyun looked at Xin Yao, the small face and thin chin were very pointed, there were only eyes left on the face, there was no flesh at all, the skin was a little yellow, I don't know what was hurt, it was all small red spots, and the coarse cloth clothes on the body were also very old, wrinkled, when I pulled her just now, my hands were very rough, my expression was no longer the same as before, there was sadness in my eyes, I don't know how much she suffered, Twilight Liuyun looked at it and thought about it, and her heart hurt a little.
Xin Yao relieved herself, saw the national teacher staring at her, and hurriedly said: "Little Wang Meng, thank you for the rescue of the national teacher, the little one can't repay ......"
Twilight Liuyun almost laughed out loud when she heard her call Wang Meng, yellow skin and thin skin, thin arms and legs, obvious malnutrition, and called Wang Meng, giving herself such a name, what do you think!
Seeing his strange expression, Xin Yao continued: "The little one can't be repaid, this ......"
Twilight interrupted her: "It's okay, anyway, you're already my person, it's my person, I'll naturally take care of it, there's nothing to be kind to." ”
Xin Yao was surprised: "Huh? Your people? When did I become yours? ”
Twilight Liuyun proudly took out the piece of paper from his arms and held it in front of Xin Yao's eyes: "Oh, do you see, white paper and black letters, as well as your fingerprints, the deed of sale!" ”
Xin Yao never dreamed that the paper he pressed his fingerprint at the gate of the city was actually a deed of sale, so he sold himself in such a daze, no wonder he was kind enough to help me, I thought he was a good person, he was simply a liar, and he was furious: "You liar, give me the deed of sale!" As he spoke, he got up and reached out to grab it, and Twilight had already taken the deed of sale into his arms.
Xin Yao couldn't see that she couldn't grab it, so she sat down and had a flattering smirk on her face: "My lord, look, I can't do anything, and my health is not good, when you are your subordinate, you still have to take care of the food, and if you are sick, you have to be treated, and if you don't get it, you will lose money." Why don't you give me the deed of sale, and we'll forget it? ”
"You know how to do swordsmanship, how can you be in bad health, not to mention that I brought you into this Zhou Kingdom, on your own, okay? So how can you forget it, just now you said that you want to repay me, and you have to talk about conscience when you are a man. Twilight said patiently.
"It's not...... I just have important things to do, otherwise, the little ones who are cows and horses will repay the adults......"
Xin Yao raised her hand and swore.
"Oh, you still have something important? Tell me what's going on. ”
"The younger one is looking for relatives, and my aunt is ...... in Zhou"
Xin Yao thought that she couldn't tell others about finding the multicolored stone, so she lied.
"It turned out to be looking for relatives, okay, then I happen to be fine, so I'll accompany you on a trip, and besides, you are not familiar with this place, so don't worry about me with you."
Twilight quipped.
"Then how can it be done, my lord, you are a national teacher, and you have every opportunity, so you won't bother you. Besides, you and I meet in the water, I'll just go by myself, heh......"
"It's okay, I said it's fine, where is your aunt's house?" Twilight asked.
"It's ......, it's far away." Xin Yao can't make it up anymore.
"It's just that there is no one, then obediently follow me back to the master's mansion, since you sold yourself to me, you have to listen to me, disobey the master, what is the end, you know! Besides, I've asked the guards to find Xiaoxue and take her back to the National Teacher's Mansion, and you don't want to see her. ”
Twilight Liuyun really tried her best to keep Xin Yao.
Xin Yao thought about it, he was penniless now, and it was difficult to move an inch in Zhou Kingdom, if he couldn't wait for Xiaoxue, it would be worse, it would be better to listen to him first, go to the National Teacher's Mansion, and on the way, you can also inquire where Luofu Mountain is, and when you see Xiaoxue, you are escaping...... Okay, that's it. So he stopped talking, but sat there obediently, with his head bowed.
Twilight saw that she wasn't talking, and that was a compromise.
The carriage walked for a while, stopped, and the guard came over and said, "My lord, I have arrived at the post station, and I will rest here tonight." ”
"Got it." Twilight replied. got up and got out of the car, and Xin Yao followed. It's already dark.
Entering the guest room of the post house, Twilight Liuyun instructed the maid with him: "Jinzhu, bring her a set of clothes for you to wear first." ”
"Yes." The maid named Jinzhu went down, and after a while, she took a set of clothes worn by the maid and handed them to Xin Yao.
Xin Yao looked at the clothes, could it be a goof, no, no one recognized her as a woman after walking all the way, how could it be. So he said to Twilight Liuyun, "Master Guoshi, this is a woman's clothes, and the small ones are men, so you can't wear them." ”
"Xin Yao, don't pretend in front of adults." Twilight looked at her and smiled, and said to the maids, "You all go out and bring the food to the room in half an hour." ”
"Yes."
Xin Yao is stupid again, how does he know my name, can't let him see that Jin Guo is still wanted by me.
"My lord, you admit that you are wrong, I am not the Xin Yao you said."
"Isn't it? How do I look like. Twilight said as she said that two handfuls of beard appeared under her nose, and then disappeared after a while.
Xin Yao couldn't believe her eyes when she looked at it, this was ...... How did this come about, could it be an illusion? After a closer look, it was the thief, that is, yes!
Xin Yao's eyes widened: "You, thief, you are Twilight Liuyun!" It turns out that you are the national teacher of the Zhou Kingdom! ”
"Yes, thank you princess for not forgetting to be here." Twilight said with a smile.
Xin Yao's mood fell when she heard the word princess: "There is no princess anymore, I am your subordinate now, please don't mention it again in the future." ”
Twilight Liuyun knew that she had said the wrong thing, which caused Xin Yao's sadness, and quickly said, "Okay, I promise you, but now you have to go and wash, it really stinks!" ”
When Xin Yao heard this, she scolded in her heart: "Deng's disciple!" ”
Turn around and go out.
After Xin Yao finished washing, she put on her long-lost women's clothes, stood in front of the mirror and watched for a long time, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Jinzhu came to call her: "Girl, have you washed it, the adult asked me to come and call the girl for your meal." ”
"Oh, got it, right away." Xin Yao replied.
When they arrived at the guest room, the meal had been prepared, and the maids in the room saw that Xin Yao was a woman and looked at her. Xin Yao thought that he was a subordinate, so he stood with Jinzhu hanging his head.
Twilight Liuyun looked at Xin Yao and pointed to the seat next to him, "You, come and sit." ”
Xin Yao pointed at herself: "Call me?" ”
Twilight nodded, and Xin Yao hurriedly sat down on her side.
Twilight Liuyun asked Jinzhu to prepare dishes and chopsticks for Xin Yao, served the meal, and said to Xin Yao: "In the future, you will be my maid, you will eat and sleep with me." ”
"Eat with you and sleep with you! This, although I accidentally sold myself to you, I can't sleep with you! How can you ...... me like this," Xin Yao looked at Twilight with aggrieved tears in her eyes.
"Where do you want to go, it's to serve me to sleep, no, how to put it, it's to sleep outside my dormitory."
Twilight finally explained.
Xin Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good." ”
"Don't eat it yet!"
Twilight didn't take a few bites herself, but kept picking up vegetables, filling Xin Yao's bowl to the brim.
Xin Yao hadn't eaten a serious meal for a long time, and her stomach was about to burst after this meal.
The maids looked at it and were very curious, even if this Xin Yao looked a little beautiful, she was not as beautiful as her own adults, how could she be so attentive to her? I've never seen an adult smile at anyone so much, and they are so courteous.
After Xin Yao finished eating, she put down her chopsticks and said, "Adult, there is something I want to ask about the little one." ”
Twilight: "What's the matter?" ”
Xin Yao stumbled: "This, just finished eating, I'm really embarrassed to ask." ”
"Say it!"
"I just want to ask my lord, the maid should have a monthly money, right? I want to ask how much ...... I have."
Xin Yao thought about it when she was taking a bath, she can do it now, she has to earn some money, otherwise what if she escapes and has no money, she really wants to keep the pearl hairpin that her father gave her.
"Oh, the monthly money, yes, they are five dollars, and you, you are selling your body, naturally less, two dollars."
"It's only two dollars, and it's too bad, can you count it according to them?" Xin Yao wanted to earn more.
"No, you eat better and dress better than them, and you didn't have a penny for selling yourself, this is already a gift to you, don't go too far." Twilight knew what she was thinking.
Xin Yao despised Twilight Liuyun from the bottom of her heart, she was really a villain, she deceived herself to be a subordinate, and she didn't even want to give her salary, it was really ...... Thinking about it, he said, "I'm full, do you still eat, my lord?" ”
"No, then remove it." Twilight gets up. The maids came up and cleared the table and withdrew.
Xin Yao looked at the room, it was a suite, it was okay, there should be a place to sleep. I looked inside, there was only one bed, and I said in my heart: "It's over, how to sleep, no, I'll sleep underground." ”
Seeing her looking back and forth, Twilight took her hand and walked to the bed, pressing her to sit on the bed, Xin Yao blushed and struggled to get up. Twilight looked at her little daughter and said, "You sleep here, I'm ......" Xin Yao raised her little face and waited for him to finish speaking, Twilight just didn't say anything, paused for a moment before saying, "I'll sleep in another room." Then a box of ointment appeared in the palm of his hand and stuffed it in Xin Yao's hand: "Remember to apply it to your face before going to bed." With that, he walked out and closed the door.
Xin Yao looked at the delicate medicine box "Hundred Flowers Jade Cream" in her hand, opened it and smelled it, it was very fragrant, she dug a little and gently applied it on her face, it was cool and comfortable, this Twilight Liuyun is a mage, he can do anything, it turns out that he is so powerful!
She lay on the bed, thinking about Xiaoxue, it was so cold outside, where did she sleep, did she eat, alas!
Gradually, I fell asleep, slept very deeply, and did not have nightmares again.
Where would she have thought that Xiaoxue, who was following her, was a rabbit spirit, how could she be hungry and thirsty, of course, she could spend the night anywhere.
