Chapter 19: Confusion

In the evening, in the well pavilion in the east corner of the general's mansion, several women were washing clothes on the bluestone slabs around the wellhead, and the sound of pounding clothes wafted in the quiet courtyard.

There was a sound of dripping water, and the woman in the crimson armor put the wrung out clothes into the wooden bucket, raised the back of her hand to wipe the sweat beads on her forehead, got up and carried the wooden bucket and walked towards the west podium.

"Sister Ajing, wait for me ......" A girl in a goose-yellow jacket picked up a wooden basin full of clothes and chased after her, and the two walked side by side.

"Sister Ajing, I heard that there will be a physical examination tomorrow......" Seeing that there was no one near the left, the girl in the goose yellow short jacket approached and said.

"A physical examination is a physical examination." The girl named Ah Jing snorted disdainfully.

"I'm just a little scared of ......" The girl in the goose-yellow short jacket blinked uneasily and turned her head to look at A-Jing.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Ah Jing pouted, "Except for those little ones, who else is the big girl of Huanghua?" ”

"Then you say, why doesn't the general let us go to the toilet?"

"You! This man...... What kind of man in this world has ......" Ah Jing raised her hand and poked the forehead of the girl next to her with her fingers, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile.

Fan Tongzhou came to see him in the evening, which made Xu Ying a little surprised. The heavy chessboard door opened, and under the steps outside the door, Fan Tongzhou was holding a box of sugar cakes in his hand, and said with a smile: "Ask Little Lady Xu." ”

"Mr. Fan, good luck." Xu Ying stood at the door, her hands on her waist, her left leg on the toes, her right knee slightly bent, and she made a blessing ceremony sideways, and the embroidery flowers on the pale blue collared long skirt were like a breeze.

"Mr. came to visit at night, I don't know what you have to do?"

"I can't hide it, I ask the little lady for help with something." Fan Tongzhou looked at the woman in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the world was impermanent, the humble and weak woman in the former prisoner pile was now a dignified lady in the general's mansion.

"Sir, I have no advice, but it doesn't hurt to say it." The little lady smiled, her expression calm and serene.

In the main room of the inner house, Yang Ming is immersed in sorting out the wiring of the solar panels that have just been installed today. Yang Ming sorted out the wires, stuffed them into the gap behind the rack, and carefully fixed them with gong nail clips until there were no traces of wires outside.

The mobile phone has long been out of battery, and many rare scenes have not been able to leave photos, Yang Ming feels a little regretful. The solar panels installed today are the emergency power equipment of his last company, and the monocrystalline silicon panels can provide 2,000 watts of electrical power and have energy storage batteries to store.

After installing the line, Yang Ming took out his mobile phone and connected it to the charger. With the crisp boot music, the familiar Android interface appeared. His fingers slid across the screen, the icons turned over page by page, and Yang Ming had a feeling of being in a different world.

Tonight, the grass is blurred.

"Tea!" Cleaning up his mind and lying down on the Taishi chair, Yang Ming shouted.

The door curtain was opened, and Linglong, dressed in an emerald coat, walked in with a teacup, her petite and well-proportioned body like a cardamom flower swaying in the breeze.

"Why are you?" Yang Ming took his eyes off the little girl's crystal jade face, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, the fragrance of tea leaves permeating his teeth and cheeks.

"Mrs. Xu went to the Weeping Flower Gate to listen to the matter, and asked the slave to wait for the general here." The voice with a bit of childishness is as moving as a lark.

"Oh, there's nothing going on here, you can go back and rest."

"Whoa." Linglong made a blessing, but did not retreat, biting her lips lightly as if hesitating something.

"General, Xu Niangzi said that she wanted us to have a physical examination tomorrow......" Finally, Linglong mustered up the courage to whisper.

"This ...... You're still young, so you don't need to ......" Yang Ming stopped before he finished speaking. Although this little girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old, she can't be taken lightly just in case.

"It's okay, it's very simple, I'll be relieved to check it." Yang Ming put the teacup on the table, "Go back and rest." ”

"Does the physical examination hurt...... Linglong's face showed a trace of fear, "Slave ......"

Yang Ming felt his heart suddenly bump, and couldn't help but reach out and hold Linglong's little hand, and a cool softness scratched into his heart.

"Don't think about it, you'll be fine." Sensing that his movements were inappropriate, he quickly let go of his hand again.

"General, Linglong has no parents, don't drive Linglong away."

The little girl suddenly came over, kissed Yang Ming's face, and ran out with a flushed face.

Yang Ming was stunned, the soft and fresh feeling on his face flowed in his heart, the waning moon outside the window was like a hook, and the night was deep.

"Mr. Fan, please write a review and hand it over early tomorrow morning." Xu Ying agreed to Fan Tongzhou, "As long as you have real talent and real learning, it should be no problem to make up for a position in the bookstore." ”

"So thank you little lady Xu."

"Mr. Fan, in the past, I was in trouble, thanks to Mr. Fan's care, how could the little woman not know to report?" Xu Ying looked at Fan Tongzhou, her eyes as calm as water.

Fan Tongzhou's heart sank, and he arched his hand and said: "I'm ashamed, I was also in trouble that day, I was too busy to take care of myself, and I didn't have the opportunity to meet Xu Xiaoniang along the way, so how to take care of it." ”

"It's not too early, Mr. Fan, please go back. Don't miss the time tomorrow. Xu Ying smiled and nodded.

Fan Tongzhou took his leave.

"By the way, there is another matter, there is not much official paper left in the house, please Mr. Fan bring some to me tomorrow." Before leaving, Xu Ying explained again.

The early morning sun shone in the courtyard, and under the steps of the verandah of the main house, dozens of women stood in red and willow green, with various expressions on their faces - some looked nervous, some looked disdainful, some eyebrows and eyes were shy, some were as cold as ice, the only thing that was the same was that everyone was holding an early pregnancy test strip in their hands.

Yang Ming and Xu Ying stood in the verandah, looking majestically at the red and purple groups of women at the bottom of the steps, a magpie swept down from the treetops, flew over the heads of the crowd, rested on the eaves of the main house, and chirped.

"You guys, in order, come up one by one......" Yang Ming ordered to the crowd under the steps with a calm face.

The woman in the front row, you look at me, I look at you, and finally, the woman in the first position on the left hand side is out of the line.

Like a willow swinging in the wind, a woman in an emerald moonlight dress walked up the steps and came to Yang Ming, staring at the ground, bending her knees, holding the test strip in both hands and presenting it to Yang Ming.

After taking the test strip, an ambiguous smell wafted into his nose, and Yang Ming couldn't help but feel a heat in his heart.

"Go to the right." There is a bar on the test strip, no problem, Yang Ming inserted the test strip into the ivory pen holder on the windowsill and gave instructions.

The second woman came up, still bowing down and presenting the test strip, and Yang Ming smelled a different kind of warm smell.

The ivory pen holder gradually filled, and a dozen or so positive women were sent to stand on the verandah on the left, and these women felt their disadvantage from the comparison of the numbers of people on both sides, and their faces showed pathos and uneasiness.

A pair of delicate and white little hands held the test paper and presented it to Yang Ming, the woman's eyes drooped, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the delicate facial features on her face were like pink carvings.

"Linglong ......" Yang Ming almost blurted out her name.

"General......" The almost inaudible breath sound was shyness and uneasiness. Yang Ming quickly came back to his senses and took the test strip.

A bar, Yang Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "You go to the right." ”

Looking at the delicate and well-proportioned back, Yang Ming didn't notice that the next woman had already stood in front of him.

"General, please check the body of the slave and maid." The delicate voice as water pulled Yang Ming's gaze back, and a wisp of musk like an orchid drifted into his nose.

Taking the test paper in the woman's hand, the vague fragrance became more obvious for a while, and Yang Ming felt that the words below him began to move.

"Oh, you're alright, go to the right." After settling down, Yang Ming said to the woman.

"General, the slave is a virgin, I wonder if it is accurate?" The woman raised her head, her eyes were shining, and her rosy lips were like first-ripe strawberries, and the texture seemed to drip water.

"Oh, exactly...... It's just that there's no need to ......" Yang Ming stumbled and said, "You go to the right......"

"General, the slave is called Xiao Yu." An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of the woman's mouth.

"Xiao Ming......" Yang Ming repeated in a slurch.

With a "snap", Xu Ying slapped the woman's face, and several red palm prints suddenly appeared on the woman's white face.

"Alas, you...... How do you hit someone? Yang Ming looked at Xu Ying, this sudden change made him feel a little inexplicable.

"If the slave or maid has any fault, please make it clear to the master, and the slave and the maid are willing to be punished by the master." Xiao Yu lowered his head, and his calm voice was unfazed.

"!" Xu Ying's face was swollen and red, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and Xiao Ying's "housemother" stabbed the blood in her heart.

"Shut up!" Yang Ming roared, and the scene suddenly fell silent.

"Next!" Ignoring Xu Ying's resentful gaze, Yang Ming ordered the women under the steps in a calm voice.
