Chapter 5: The Bunny
(There is a change at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, new and old friends, smash some red tickets.) )
Although Feng Yuanjun and the Yuwen family had been married, he didn't know what Yuwen Xiao had done beforehand, and there was a eunuch Gao Lishi talking in the palace, so he would definitely be able to push the relationship cleanly at that time; As for exposing Yu Wenxiao's unsightly things and demonstrating justice...... What is the use of Xue Chongxun?
However, Yuwen Xiao's secret is not useless.
Xue Chongxun instructed the slave maid to stop heating and stop pouring water on the stones, and then took a bath in a hot water bucket, and his whole body was suddenly relaxed and tired.
"I'm going home." Xue Chongxun glanced at Sanniang, who was drenched, "It's getting colder and colder in the house, you can take a shower and change your clothes in a while, and you will live in the courtyard of Mi Mi Zhai, don't be afraid, it's very safe." ”
Coming out of the misty house, a few steps across the street is Xue Chongxun's home Weiguo Mansion. He has sealed 3,000 households, needless to say, the carved buildings in the house are magnificent, but of course it can't be compared with the princess mansion of the mother Princess Taiping, the pattern is many times smaller, mainly the courtyard between the two large buildings with a corridor hooked, next to and behind there are two partial courtyards.
Walking into the sliding wooden lattice door, it is the bedroom where Xue Chongxun rests. The wood-colored beams and columns, the pink walls, bamboo curtains, and the white paper wooden lattice windows form a faint and quiet classical style; The large painting on the wall depicts only a flying white crane, but it hints at infinite space, which makes the interior appear wider than the actual space, without any sense of oppression.
There is also a flower-shaped perforated incense burner with a gourd-shaped button lid in the room, with little green smoke, and the smell in the nose makes people feel comfortable. Being in his own space, it can always make people temporarily put down pressure and relax, Xue Chongxun picked up a copy of Liu Xiang's version of "National Policy" on the bookshelf and sat on the soft collapse, and turned the page that happened to turn to the "Three Holes of the Cunning Rabbit", he already knew the little story in it, but because the mood became relaxed, he also read it with interest.
At this moment, a timid voice outside the door said, "Lang Jun, open the door." ”
Xue Chongxun put the book on the big case, and listened to the voice as if it was Pei Niang, the daughter of "Don't Trust Xi Shi", and then remembered what Pang Er, the slave who led the horse before, said that he would send Pei Niang over to be a girl in the room at night. They are all slaves and maids of the Xue Mansion, and according to the rules, they should be possessed or controlled by their masters.
Xue Chongxun thought about it and said to the door: "Didn't I tell your stepfather, you don't need to send you over." ”
Pei Niang's voice choked up: "Did I do something wrong?" ”
"The door is not latched, come in and talk."
After a while, the door was slowly opened, and a little lady stepped in with her head down, and gently closed the wooden door with her hands behind her back. Then her hands were brought to the front, her hands were clasped around her waist, her fingers were clasped, and her shoulders trembled slightly, and it was obvious that she was very nervous.
This little girl is Pei Niang, the daughter of the Xue family's chef "Bu Tuo Xi Shi", who gave birth to a melon seed face, still childish, with sparkling eyelashes, and although the pair of black eyes below looked at the floor with low eyebrows, they were still smart. Her feet were like frost, and she was kicking a pair of clogs. Although he was wearing a coarse cloth coat, he still couldn't hide the immature and white complexion on his slender neck.
She was only about thirteen or fourteen years old, in the world of her previous life, she was still in junior high school, although she could already serve men in the Tang Dynasty, but Xue Chongxun's thoughts changed after the opportunity that night, and it always felt a little awkward to let a young girl serve.
Seeing that Xue Chongxun was silent, Pei Niang might have been too nervous, and said timidly: "Lang Jun, will you make me hurt a lot?" ”
Xue Chongxun: "......"
"My mother said it would hurt a lot, so I told the slave to endure it...... As long as you accept me as a concubine in the future, let me live with you. ”
Xue Chongxun shook his head and said, "You are too young, go back to your mother...... Bring the door when you go out. ”
"My mother will beat me." Pei Niang looked at Xue Chongxun pitifully with a pair of big watery eyes.
What qualifications does a slave have to bargain and ask the master to speak more? Xue Chongxun's eyes showed a slight anger, and he was about to scold, but then he heard Pei Niang say: "I'm most afraid of pain, and she also cried when my mother beat her......"
Xue Chongxun's heart softened, and he swallowed the words that came to his lips again.
Pei Niang said: "I'm not lying, or Lang Jun will take a look at the scars on my body." As she spoke, she began to untie her clothes.
Sure enough, as soon as Xue Chongxun gave in, Pei Niang would not give up, even if she was a little girl, she would work hard for herself and her family. A female slave girl like her, who is beautiful but not talented, may be sold by her master in the future, or reduced to a low-level brothel, instead of this, it is better to be the concubine of the powerful Xue family, and she can stay with her parents.
Opposite Xue Chongxun is a large palmetto wood case inlaid with marble, produced in Annan, the whole body is light, without carving, the natural beauty of the texture of the wood itself, giving people a quiet and soft feeling...... Just like Pei Niang's skin, it is also so natural, pure, clean and unadorned.
She stood there bare, her arms folded over her chest, and she was standing there in a daze. The spring night was still cold, and the naked Pei Niang was shivering with cold, standing there at a loss. After a while, she turned around, revealing a soft immature back and a small waist, "Lang Jun look at the wound on my back, my mother beat me." ”
There were a few red marks on her back, and she said, "Lang Jun drove me back, and my mother will beat me again." ”
Xue Chongxun heard her pitiful, and a little sympathy appeared in his heart, so he said: "Then you put on your clothes first, and your mother won't beat you again this time...... There is medicinal wine in the cabinet next to the screen, you take it out and wipe it a little. ”
After hearing this, Pei Niang carefully put on her coarse cloth clothes, and went to the cabinet to get the potion as she said. I took the potion, but I hurt my back. Xue Chongxun didn't want to think about it either, so he simply asked her to pick up her clothes and help her bruise. When his fingers touched the smooth back, his heart also fluctuated slightly...... The lines of Pei Niang's back bend inward at the waist, forming a beautiful inner arc, and the lines flow through the small waist and rise suddenly, which is a compact buttocks. Xue Chongxun looked from top to bottom, and the snow-white buttocks were also looming in the skirt.
"Lang Jun, can this medicine wipe the front?"
"There's a wound in front too?"
Pei Niang's voice was as crisp as a bell: "No, I didn't wear a corset today, the clothes were too thick and grinded to the burning pain in the chest." ”
Xue Chongxun said: "Then why don't you wear it?" ”
"My mother said that my corset is too ugly, I'm afraid it will affect Lang Jun's Yaxing."
Xue Chongxun said: "This medicine is bruised, and it cannot be used indiscriminately...... There's a way to do it. Xue Chongxun stood up, found a piece of kraft paper, took off the knife on the "Seven Things" on his waist, cut the kraft paper into two pieces the size of a band-aid, and applied some paste on one side. ”
After a while, Pei Niang said after finishing it: "It really works, how could Lang Jun come up with such a method?" ”
"Breast patches." Two words popped out of Xue Chongxun's mouth, and then said, "The bed outside the warm pavilion was originally slept by the slaves and maids on duty at night, and you will sleep outside in a while." ”
Pei Niang's face was suddenly happy, Lang Jun no longer picked her up, at least she could be a close servant here, although she was also a slave, her status in the Xue family was higher than that of other slaves. Because the servants can often talk to their masters, sometimes it is very important, and the other servants have to be a little jealous.
"Pei Niang must do her best to serve Lang Jun." She bowed her head and said briskly.
Xue Chongxun nodded and said: "Your stepfather has been in the Xue family for twenty or thirty years since he was a child, and he is loyal, so my family treats him well, so you can do it yourself." ”
Pei Niang said enthusiastically: "Lang Jun wants to burn his feet, I'll go out and make a basin of hot water for Lang Jun." ”
"I just took a shower, no need, now you go outside, I'll call you again if there's something."
After Xue Chongxun was the only one left in the bedroom, he got up and blew out the candles, and instead of sleeping, he sat in front of the window. There was no moonlight tonight, but the lantern outside the window was on. The outside is bright, but the inside is dark, which gives Xue Chongxun a sense of security in his heart...... In fact, he never felt very safe. In history, the event of the fall of Princess Taiping not two years later has always been like a sharp sword hanging over her head.
Maybe he ended up in the same way as his father, dying at the hands of relatives.
After the lights in Xue Chongxun's room went out, the whole house was basically a curfew, and no one dared to make too loud noises. In the silence, he thought a lot, from his past life to this life...... He hesitated when he thought of what he was going to do at the moment, but he still didn't dismiss it.
