Chapter 21: Undercurrents

On the second day, Pei Qingwei made people clean up an extremely secluded side courtyard for Rao Tu to live, in addition to the spring, summer, autumn and winter assigned by the mountain ghost and Princess Xunyang, Pei Qingwei pointed out another girl named Liu Xing.

Rao Tu crooked in the window and smiled at the willow apricots in the courtyard, and the little girl was tiptoeing to clean up the walls of the vines and dead leaves.

Seeing that there was no one around, the mountain ghost lowered his voice and said, "There are too many miscellaneous people around the girl now!" ”

"Yes, Spring, Summer and Autumn and Winter are the people of Princess Xunyang, so naturally they are here to spy on me, and they are not available. This girl named Liu Xing, I think she is a clever person, but her temperament is dull, she seems to have encountered something difficult, you go to check her details, or you can ambush her. ”

The mountain ghost answered, stuck some words in his throat, and wanted to say goodbye.

"What? What do you want to say? ”

"Girl, look at that willow apricot, do you look like a person?"

Rao Tu smiled, "Sure enough, your eyes are poisonous, yes, like a human being...... Like me who is dead. ”

"There are only three points, and the image is like a thing, but there is no spiritual rhyme." Mountain ghosts added.

Rao Di sneered: "This is the reason why Pei pointed out this girl to me, she expected that Shen Zhu would often come to me, if he saw Liu Xing, what would he think?" ”

"Hmm...... He may think that the girl is not unusual, even an ordinary maid is a little similar to Xu Yu, the girl and the maid are ...... But it's all inferior......"

"Pei's is good at punishing the heart......," Rao sighed, "Call Liu Xing in, and I'll talk to her." ”

The mountain ghost called Liu Xing, and the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl called out "Hello girl", and knelt in front of Rao Di and was silent.

Rao Di didn't call her up, but said leisurely: "Your name is too vulgar, I'll change it for you, you see that this courtyard is cold-tolerant, it's better to call it Ayu." ”

The little girl was shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "The slave and maid don't dare, please...... Please take back the girl's fate. ”

"Oh? You don't like the name? ”

"No...... It's not ......"

"Why is that?"

"The slave didn't dare to say it."

"Okay, then I'll ask your lord later, why don't you want to call the word 'Ah Yu', is there any taboo?"

Liu Xing climbed forward and grabbed Rao's dress, and begged mournfully: "Girl, don't ask...... ...... that adults don't like."

"Why?"

"Because, because the word 蘅 is...... It is the name of an adult's wife. The girl called me Ah Yu, and if the adults found out, they would break my legs! ”

Rao was silent for a moment, and then smiled: "How can it be so powerful, adults have a gentle temperament, how can they treat people harshly?" ”

"The girl doesn't know, in this house, this is taboo, and no one can mention it."

Seeing that her face was full of tears, Rao Di took out a white silk from her sleeve to wipe her tears in person, and coaxed softly: "Look, such a clever girl is scared like this, I don't know what I think I did to you!" The name is just a title, if you don't change it, you won't change it, and it's not a big deal. ”

Liu Xing trembled, wanted to dodge but didn't dare, only to feel that a fairy-like girl was wiping her tears, which made her mind confused.

The mountain ghost stood aside and wanted to laugh a little, secretly thinking that if the girl was gentle, regardless of gender, she would be fascinated.

Rao Tu caught a glimpse of Liu Xinglu's arm outside, "tsk", and said in surprise: "Who hit this?" How did it get like this? ”
