Chapter 110: Wei Xue
Wei Xue saw that Meng Xiaoran was a little distracted, so she walked up to her and stretched out her hand to shake it in front of her, "Ruyi, what's wrong?" What's in a daze? ”
Meng Xiaoran came back to her senses at this time, and shook her head with a smile, "It's nothing, I was thinking about things just now, Xiaoxue, why are you wearing a veil too?" ”
Wei Xue's eyes were full of loneliness, Meng Xiaoran understood that she must have asked about her sadness, so she hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Xiaoxue, I shouldn't have asked this." ”
Wei Xue shook her head, "It's okay, it's not a secret, everyone knows it." Saying that, she raised her hand and took off the veil on her face, Meng Xiaoran first saw a delicate face, and when the veil was all taken off, she was stunned.
A large hideous scar on the left side of the face, the skin and flesh are tangled together, it looks very scary, Meng Xiaoran's eyes are distressed, and she looks at Wei Xue's face full of apologies, "Xiaoxue, I'm sorry......"
Wei Xue smiled and put the veil on, "Nothing?" I've long gotten used to this face. She didn't care about it, but Meng Xiaoran could still see the deep loneliness in her eyes.
What woman doesn't love beauty? What's more, it is a woman who is already good-looking, who can withstand such a great change?
Meng Xiaoran couldn't help but hold her hand and wanted to comfort her, the two looked at each other and smiled, and their friendship was concluded from then on.
Meng Xiao then went to Langying to inquire, only to learn that Wei Xue was originally a rich daughter in Jiangnan, because her mother was an outer room, until her mother died at the age of thirteen, she was taken back to the house, and she was ostracized because of her beauty.
Meng Xiaoran sighed a little, who is not a woman in the red dust? Especially in such a hierarchical ancient world, if it weren't for the hardships of life, who would want to fall into this land of fireworks and be spurned by the world?
On the second day, the injury on Langying's face was also healed, and she was very grateful to Meng Xiaoran, although she fainted, but later after listening to Zidai, she realized that she had saved their master and servant.
Meng Xiaoran quietly observed the Fenghua Xueyue Building after night in the past two days, and really responded to the name, Fenghua Xueyue, so unhappy, but Zidai didn't have to go out every day, she had been resting in the house for the past two days, and if there was anything, she told Rongying to do it.
I don't know if it's because the man told her not to trust herself, Meng Xiaoran obviously felt that she was guarding against herself, and the two barely met in the past two days.
On the morning of the third day, Meng Xiaoran sat in the house and chatted with Wei Xue, the two had nothing to do during the day, and they often mixed together in the past two days, when there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Ruyi, I have something I want to trouble you, are you there?"
It was the voice of the shadow, Meng Xiaoran immediately walked over and opened the door, Wei Xue saw that she had something to do and stood up and said goodbye, and the shadow waited for her to leave before handing over a purse, "The girl likes to use the hibiscus balsam and peach blossom rouge there, I will have something to do and I can't leave, so I have to trouble you." ”
Meng Xiaoran nodded, took the purse, turned back to the room and put on the veil and left, she had some doubts in her heart, why did Langying let herself buy balsam? Could it be Zidai's instructions?
She thought about it and had a guess, I was afraid that they had arranged it to go out today, and she wanted to test herself?
After having the bottom of her heart, Meng Xiaoran became much calmer, she walked towards Liufangzhai, Fenghua Xueyuelou was on a relatively secluded street, a few streets away from Liuxiangzhai, she arrived in about two quarters of an hour, and went back after buying rouge gouache according to what Shadow said.
Although her skills are now sealed, her acuity as a person who practices martial arts has not changed, so when she walked for a while and found that someone was following her, she couldn't help but hook her lips, pretending not to know and continue to walk back, and when she came to a secluded alley not far from Fenghua Xueyue Tower, sure enough, someone appeared in front of her.
The man was dressed in gray, his appearance was very obscene, he was not a good person at first glance, he looked Meng Xiaoran up and down, and nodded secretly, this little girl is very good, and after a while, he slowly approached, and he wanted to do it.
Meng Xiaoran immediately counterattacked, although she had no internal strength, but the move was still there, and the power was much smaller, but it was not bad, she already had some foundation, and she won after fighting with that person for a while, in order to play more realistically, she also kicked the man in gray hard.
"This girl hates Dengzi the most in her life, it's best not to let me see you again, hum!" Very well, this better explains why she was uneven that day, and drew a knife to help.
After she left, until the figure disappeared at the mouth of the alley, the gray-clothed man curled up on the ground immediately climbed up, and then a figure flew from the roof, and his voice was low, "How is it?" Have you found anything? ”
The man in gray shook his head, "I don't have internal skills, I can see that I have learned some moves, some skills, there is no problem in dealing with some ordinary ruffians and hooligans, but it will not work if I encounter martial arts." ”
The man nodded, jumped and disappeared, Meng Xiaoran was in a good mood, entered the Fenghua Xueyue Building from the back door, and returned to the small courtyard where he and Zidai lived, and planned to send the rouge gouache she bought, but as soon as she knocked on the door, she saw Langying running over in a little panic and pulling her aside.
"Don't disturb the girl, the girl's house never lets anyone in, you give me something, I'll give it to her."
Meng Xiaoran's eyes flashed, and he pretended to be indifferent, and handed her the burden in his hand, "Since that's the case, I'm still bothering you to send it." ”
Langying took it, but she didn't immediately go to Zidai's side door, Meng Xiaoran guessed that she was worried about her presence? So she took her leave and went back to her house, and when she entered, she closed the door, and hid by the door to listen carefully to the movement outside.
Sure enough, after a while, I heard a knock on the door, "Girl, Ruyi bought you something, and the slave maid sent it in for you, right?" ”
After a while, I faintly heard a voice, "Come in." ”
The door was pushed open with a "squeak", but after a while, the door rang again, it should be a shadow coming out, Meng Xiaoran looked through the window, and sure enough, she saw her back when she went out, something was wrong, why was Zidai's room so mysterious? Only the shadow can enter and exit, and it can't stay for long, so it comes out in a hurry.
Is there some secret in that house?
It seems that if she wants to make a breakthrough, she must first obtain the right to enter and exit that room, and if she wants to do so, there seems to be no way but to gain Zidai's trust, so that there is some possibility.
But looking at that Zidai now, it seems that she doesn't believe in herself, maybe there will be changes after today, right?
And she also had to inquire about the news of this Zidai, maybe Wei Xue would know something there, so after thinking about it, she cleaned up and went out of the yard and went to Wei Xue.
Although Wei Xue is a piano master, because she is not good, she can only live in a large courtyard with a group of people, but fortunately, she can get a separate room and finally have a place to live.
When Meng Xiaoran went to find her, she was playing the piano, the sound of the piano was melodious, and there was a sadness, just like her person, Meng Xiaoran stood outside the door, and only knocked on the door when the song was over.
Wei Xue opened the door and saw that it was her, and a smile appeared on her face, "The matter is done?" How did you remember to come to me today? I'm very small here, don't be surprised. As he spoke, he pulled her into the house.
Meng Xiaoran looked at the room, as she said, this room is a little small, but it was cleaned up very clean and warm by Wei Xue, and there was an incense case on one side and a piano, which looked very elegant.
She smiled, "Although you are small here, I like it very much, I am a layman, it is good to come to you for a while." ”
Wei Xue couldn't help but smile when she heard this, poured a glass of water and put it in front of her, looked at her and said, "Say, what's the matter with me?" Meng Xiaoran was surprised by her intelligence, and couldn't help laughing, "It seems that I can't hide anything from you." ”
She thought for a while and asked: "I want to ask you about Miss Zidai, after all, I am doing things for her now, I am afraid that some things will be taboo if I don't know, today I bought rouge gouache for her, I wanted to send it back to her, but I just knocked on the door and was stopped by Langying, saying that Miss Zidai's house is not allowed to let people in, have you heard of it?"
Wei Xue thought for a while, and then nodded, "I have some impressions when you say this, I remember that when I first came, Miss Zidai was not waiting for the current shadow, just because the maid broke into her room without the permission of Miss Zidai, and was sent down by Miss Zidai, and then changed the shadow." ”
"I see, I didn't expect Miss Zidai to look soft-tempered, but she was so strict, it's just a room, and the maid who waits for her will not have anything when she goes in, where do you need to overreact like that?" Meng Xiaoran said this deliberately, she wanted to get Wei Xue to say more things.
Sure enough, Wei Xue's face was a little strange after listening to her words, and suddenly she stood up and opened the door to look outside, and when she saw that there was no one around, she was relieved, and after walking back, she leaned into Meng Xiaoran's ear and whispered:
"I'm afraid no one in this building knows about it, last month Mid-Autumn Festival night, the building set up a banquet, I had no choice but to be poured a few glasses of wine, very uncomfortable, I couldn't sleep at night, I simply got up, wandering in the yard, who knew let me find one thing, I saw a dark shadow into the yard of Zidai girl, and then I quietly followed, saw Zidai girl's house lights on, she opened the door to let the person in."
Meng Xiaoran frowned when she heard this, could it be that person was the one who came to see Zidai that night? Probably not, if that person is the person, how can he not even know that he was discovered?
Wei Xue frowned when she saw her, thinking that she didn't approve of this kind of thing in her heart, so she sighed and continued: "In this Qinglou, even if we are just subordinates, our reputation is bad after all, and Miss Zidai, although she doesn't sell her body, what if she is taken advantage of?" But I guess, that person is afraid that she is her sweetheart, otherwise why would she meet late at night and be so sneaky? ”
Meng Xiaoran nodded, pretending to be suddenly enlightened and said, "No wonder Miss Zidai is so careful not to let people enter and leave her room, I'm afraid it's because of this."
