Chapter 42: Signaling to stay
"This is your place of residence from now on. The little bolt was taken by the father-in-law himself, and the father-in-law pointed to the dilapidated house in front of him.
There are still old men in and out of this house, they are already old people in the palace, but their clothes are not covered and they emit a foul smell.
Xiao Shuan swallowed, he knew that he had no room to resist, and he was full of reluctance, so he walked towards this room.
Suddenly, a sharp pain came from his back, and he immediately looked back, and behind him, the father-in-law was holding a whip in his hand.
Xiao Bolt turned around and took a step back, he didn't speak, just lowered his head, because he didn't know what he had done wrong, in this palace, it was not a good choice to go against the father-in-law here.
"What kind of place is this, and the walk is so grinding, if the work of any master is delayed, can you afford it?" he said loudly.
Xiao Shuan was a little at a loss, he still lowered his head, and only heard the father-in-law in front of him say loudly: "If you don't hurry up and give me over, if you dare to delay for one more minute in the future, I will whip you ten more times." ”
As soon as the father-in-law's words fell, Xiao Bolt immediately ran into the dilapidated and low room, and before he could fully enter, he smelled a disgusting sour smell that rushed to his nose, this disgusting sour smell, as if something was rotten.
The room was pitch black everywhere, and although there were windows, they were covered by a few worn rags, making the room look very gray.
Xiao Shuan covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and he couldn't stand the breath.
"Why, young man, I came to this place at a young age. An older voice sounded in front of Xiao Shu, Xiao Shuan covered his nose, and he could feel that the breath on the person in front of him was also very unbearable, as if this person was the source of the stench.
"What is this place?" said Xiao Shu, a little puzzled, although he had come to this place, he still did not understand what this place was.
The old man smiled softly: "This is the worst place in the entire palace residence, and ordinary people can't enter it." ”
The old man laughed with a hint of contempt: "What do you mean?"
Although it was very dim, the old man turned around, and seemed to walk back to the place where he had just come, and the rough cane in his hand knocked on the ground as he said, "As long as you enter this room, you will suffer in the future." ”
When the old man had finished speaking, he went to a place and sat down.
The little bolt suddenly felt an itch on his foot, and he immediately slapped it with his hand, and suddenly he felt a furry thing crawling on his hand.
He hurriedly shook his hand in fright, but the furry thing seemed to be stuck to his hand, and he couldn't shake it off at all.
He was incredibly disgusted, and the foul smell of the room continued to enter his mouth through his nose and mouth.
He immediately tried to knock the stuffy thing off with one hand, but he also had an extra fluffy thing on the other.
When he felt it, he was completely helpless, and the old man was just sitting on the bed, and his laughter was very loud, echoing through the room.
"Don't move, the more you move, the tighter these little things will get entangled. ”
Listen to the old man's old but powerful voice: "What are these?"
"I'm telling you to stop. The old man reminded again, but his laughter was gone.
Xiao Shui forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, his hands clenched into fists, and he stood in place without daring to move.
It was a time-consuming time that seemed to pass unusually slowly, and he could feel the changes that were happening to him with each second.
Sure enough, he didn't move, so the furry stuff slowly began to move.
A few minutes passed, and the things seemed to have fallen to the ground, and he immediately reached out and patted the skin on his body.
"Since you live here, you have to get used to it, these things used to be bugs raised here, but that person has died, and they can't find their master, so they want to make sure that this one is not their master. The old man said, as if he had seen too much of it.
Still immersed in panic, he gritted his teeth and cautiously walked in the direction of the old man.
He had just taken a few steps when a loud voice came from outside: "Little bolt, come out for me, and give me some ink inside?"
As soon as he heard it, he knew that it was the father-in-law's voice, and he immediately answered yes, then pulled up his legs and ran outside.
The scene outside is still the same, everyone is doing their own hard work, and the clothes here seem to be unwashable, and one cart after another is being transported here.
"Father-in-law, what are the arrangements?" said Xiao Shuan a little cautiously.
"Now come over to me at once and help them clean up the in the palace. The father-in-law's voice was very stern.
"Yes......"
When Lan Hanxian and Zhong Lijun returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the sky had already begun to be gloomy, and a light wind was gradually blowing here.
Lan Hanxian returned to the side room and sat down on the chair, he didn't say anything, just calmed his eyes, and silently looked at the recital books on the desk, these books were just sent today, but he was not in the mood to review them at all.
An Xuexin carefully held the dinner plate, she turned her head and gestured to Ling Xiaoxiang who was standing behind her, and she walked into the room by herself.
Lan Hanxian raised his head and saw the person in front of him, he didn't have any surprise.
"Prime Minister, the pastry is ready, you can taste it. An Xuexin's words were very polite.
The aroma of pastries unexpectedly filled the room again, Lan Hanxian smelled the aroma of pastries, his eyes lit up slightly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and then said, "You can take it." ”
An Xuexin held the dinner plate and put it on the table next to the prime minister, she just wanted to retire, but was motioned by Lan Hanxian to stay.
