"Dong He really gave up his blood." Sending Dong He back to the courtyard, a guard said: "Some of the granddaughters who are beautiful want their sons to look at them, and they clearly want to marry the Yuan family." ”

"There's nothing wrong with kissing!" Grinning at the guards, Yuan Xu turned around and went back to his room.

Watching him enter the room, the guard scratched his head.

Could it be that Childe really misses a woman?

The Dong family arranged the house in response to a sentence, only use the expensive one, not the right one!

The furnishings of the room are extremely luxurious, the cage is inlaid with edges, and the materials are very exquisite.

No matter which piece of furniture, the value of a single piece is very expensive, but in the same room, how to look at it feels vulgar and awkward.

Xiao Zhu has been looking left and right, as if he is curious about everything.

"Do you like it here?" Yuan Xu patted him on the shoulder.

Shaking his head, Xiao Zhu didn't say anything.

"I know you don't like it!" Looking around the house, Yuan Xu said: "I don't like it either, luxury but no taste." ”

"Childe!" Just as he was about to go into the inner room to take a look, the voice of the guard came from outside the door: "Dong He sent a maid, saying that she was serving the son's life!" ”

Before leaving, he sent a maid.

Dong He's arrangement is meticulous!

Afraid that Yuan Xu would refuse to accept him when he was present, he deliberately arranged for the maid to come after leaving.

"Let her in!" Seeing Dong He's thoughts, Yuan Xu didn't want to embarrass a maid, so he gave an order outside.

The guard led a woman into the house.

The maid in a pink linen dress saluted Yuan Xu after entering the house.

The maid who is about thirteen or fourteen years old has a beautiful appearance, although she can't be compared with Zhen Xiao's beauty, but she has a little bit of the grace and beauty of a small jasper, which is obviously chosen by Dong He!

Looking at the maid Yuan Xu, he asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Nian'er!" Lowering her hand and bowing her head, the maid answered softly.

"Good name!" Smiling slightly, Yuan Xu said: "In the future, I will be here to bother you more!" ”

The maid lowered her head and said with sincere fear: "Dong Gong gave the slave to the son, and the slave and the maid are the son's people." The son asked the slave and maid to do as much as he wanted, and the slave and maid did as much as they wanted. ”

Nian'er is a maid, and although Yuan Xu doesn't like her humble attitude, he doesn't have much to say.

The concept of the environment of the times creates people, the difference between respect and inferiority is deep-rooted, and it is impossible for a maid to have a backbone.

"There will be no outsiders in the future, so there is no need to be so restrained!" Xiang Nian'er nodded, and Yuan Xu said, "You go down first!" ”

Nian'er turned around, and there was a faint cry outside.

The cry was not very loud or very clear, and it could only be heard dimly.

"Did you hear that?" His ears were furled, and Yuan Xu frowned.

Except for Xiao Zhu, only Nian'er and Yuan Xu were left in the house.

Xiao Zhu is mentally incomplete, she had heard it before she came.

Of course, Yuan Xu wouldn't ask Xiao Zhu, obviously asking her.

With a frightened face, Nian'er responded: "If the son is disgusted, the slave and maid will be driven away." ”

"Do you know who weeps?" Frowning, Yuan Xu did not let her drive away, but asked.

There are still moments before dusk, and it's okay to cry at this time.

If you wait until you cry in a deeper silence, the timid will really be scared out of three long and two short.

Lowering her head, Nian'er said, "The slave is just a poor person......

"Since you are a poor man, do not bother!" After getting the answer, Yuan Xu said: "Don't let her cry, in case she holds back a long time, it's still a sin!" ”

Xiao Zhu, who touched the east and west, did not pay attention to the crying at all.

Playing with a small pottery bowl, he seemed to be very interested in the patterns on it.

"You settle down Xiao Zhu first, and I want to be alone!" After instructing Nian'er, Yuan Xu entered the inner room.

In response, Nian'er stepped forward and hugged Xiao Zhu.

Looking at her blankly, Xiao Zhu didn't have any resistance.

pulled him out of the door, and Nian'er closed the door with her backhand.

Sitting in the inner room, Yuan Xu looked at the local chronicles brought from the government, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Outside the window, the sunlight gradually dimmed, turning from snow to dark yellow, and then to orange.

The remnant sun was setting, the night gradually covered the earth, and Nian'er's voice came from outside the door: "Childe, dinner is ready!" ”

"Send it in!" With the light of the oil lamp, Yuan Xu, who was looking at the book, didn't even raise his head.

The door opened softly, and Nian'er walked in.

On the tray, there was a small bowl and two plates of dishes.

The dish is one meat and one vegetarian, with a small dish on the left side of the dish of green boiled greens, and a plate of bacon on the right.

The color of the dishes is good, but it can't arouse Yuan Xu's appetite at all.

After coming to Shangcai for two days, he ate a lot of wine banquets, and he was a little tired of eating.

Not to mention that these two dishes are very different from what he made, just in terms of appetite, Yuan Xu doesn't have much.

"Have you eaten it?" Nian'er placed the dishes on the table, and Yuan Xu raised his head and asked.

"Slave and maid eat later!" Putting down the dishes and corn, Nian'er said: "Childe should eat it while it's hot, if it's cold, the meat will be greasy!" ”

I didn't really want to eat it, but the little beauty kindly reminded her, and Yuan Xu was inconvenient to whisk it.

"Is there any crying outside?" Picking up the rice bowl, he asked Nian'er.

"I stopped crying when evening approached!"

"You say it's a poor man, do you know the details?"

"Slaves don't know!" Yuan Xu asked for details, and Nian'er hurriedly denied it.

Yuan Xu saw that she must know some inside information, but she didn't dare to say it.

He didn't force it, he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead!" ”

Afraid that he would ask about the crying outside the courtyard wall again, Nian'er hurriedly retreated.

After she left, Yuan Xu took two mouthfuls of rice.

The two dishes were made by the Dong family's chef with heart, but when he ate it in his mouth, he felt that the taste was the same as chewing wax.

The vegetables are all boiled, and of course they don't taste good.

The bacon is not bad, but it is missing a few ingredients, and it is tangible.

I really didn't have an appetite, put down my job, and Yuan Xu planned to go for a walk in the small courtyard.

The yard is not large, and some flowers and trees are planted, so the evening in early spring should be a little interesting.

It was already completely dark, and the last quarter moon reflected the earth, bringing a dim light to the courtyard.

With the moonlight, you can only see a few steps in front of you, and it is very difficult to see farther away!

At the end of the courtyard, there is a place where it is especially dark compared to the others.

"Who?" Looking at the dark patch, Yuan Xu asked.

Under the courtyard wall, a black shadow jumped up the wall and disappeared into the night in an instant.

The four guards who had returned to their rooms heard the shouts and rushed out with their swords in hand.

All they saw was a vast night, and where was there any trace of a dark shadow?

"Childe, what's wrong?" Guarding Yuan Xu in four directions, a guard looked around and asked.

"There's an uninvited guest, and it's gone!" Looking at the wall where the black shadow disappeared, Yuan Xu said lightly: "Let's go back and rest!" ”
