Chapter 59: Waiting for the Rabbit

An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Zhuang Xuan's mouth, but her voice was still crying, and she seemed to be very gentle and considerate to Qing Jun: "Brother Jun, don't be angry, those laymen are just Diao Min." I'm just, growing up, I haven't suffered such grievances. So ......"

Qing Jun hugged Princess Zhuang Xuan into her arms, clapping her hands and gently comforting her.

Duckweed took the little baby's hand, sighed, and said, "Let's go." Qingjun is going to do it again, let's go to the East Water Gate to wait for the rabbit. ”

Outside the East Water Gate in the southeast direction of Bianjing, chrysanthemums are blooming just right at this time.

The Double Ninth Festival is coming, and this suburb has become a good place for nobles in Beijing to visit and go out. The duckweed baby and a cute spirit magpie stood on a dirt slope on the outskirts of the city at this time, looking at the scattered houses around it.

"This Princess Zhuang Xuan is worthy of growing up in the palace, but it is just a few words, the characters in this place have been chosen, just waiting for Qingjun's knife. Duckweed looked at the farmers hiding in the bamboo forest not far away, and the little couple who were busy cleaning up the courtyard, and said very sadly.

"Yes, master. There is only one place to enjoy chrysanthemums in this East Water Gate, which is sparsely populated and has only a few farmers. Importantly, this family is the only one with the surname Fang. Xiao Lingque also shook his head and said.

"The key is that this family is far away from other farmers, and they live relatively hidden, so even if something happens at the moment, it is difficult to call for help. Moreover, the government will not check it so quickly. Xiaowa also sighed and said.

Duckweed took the baby and approached the farmer hidden in the bamboo forest. In order to make the farmer trust them more, duckweed had to pretend that her foot was sprained.

Xiaowa walked to the house with duckweed in her arms, and said to the woman who was pulling weeds in the yard: "This sister-in-law, my sister and I came to the suburbs to enjoy the chrysanthemums, but accidentally sprained our feet.

Duckweed has a gentle voice, but her expression is painful, and she deliberately makes her feet look like they are swollen in order to appear realistic.

When the woman turned around, she had a very pale face, but the appearance of an ordinary woman, and she was dressed plainly. Seeing the duckweed like this, she hurriedly put down the work in her hand, and said very worriedly and enthusiastically: "Come in, it's just that my family is simple, and the nobles must not dislike it." ”

After speaking, I wanted to come up and hold the duckweed, but when I looked at the muddy hands, I had to smile awkwardly: "Don't blame the lady, we, the peasant family, are afraid of soiling the lady's clothes." ”

Duckweed smiled: "Clothes are things outside the body, just wash them when they are dirty." Sister-in-law doesn't have to be formal, it's not too embarrassing for us to disturb you first, and then we want to borrow your room to rest. My sister-in-law thinks about us like this, and I don't know how to thank her. ”

"Nothing to do, the lady can live with peace of mind. My wife has learned some medical skills, so I'll help you see it later. A middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead at this time and said very sincerely.

Xiaowa hurriedly said: "My sister just sprained her foot, it's okay, don't bother." ”

Despite that, the couple enthusiastically arranged duckweed and the baby to sit in the house. The woman made a pot of tea for the two of them, and worked for the duckweed for a while, and did not know what herbs she put on her.

Duckweed felt cold on her feet, and said to the woman very embarrassed: "It's really troublesome sister-in-law." This herb still has these hours of today's troubles, I will pay my sister-in-law. ”

The woman waved her hand and grinned: "The lady is too polite to say this, since you call me a sister-in-law, will you give the silver a share? It's a pleasure to look at. It's just a pity that I wasn't born in a good family, and when I was young, I didn't have time, money, and experience dressing up beautifully. Now, hey, I'm getting older, and I'm glad for you when I look at you beautiful girls who come to admire the chrysanthemums. ”

Princess Zhuang Xuan's words are too distorted to the facts. Duckweed couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart, how could such a good person suffer such an unjust death.

Good thing they came.

"Sister-in-law, did you see a woman in gorgeous clothes coming here to enjoy chrysanthemums a few days ago?" duckweed pretended to be curious and chatted with the woman.

The woman immediately smiled and said, "Yes." A few days ago, there was a particularly good-looking lady, and a maid beside her seemed to be lost, and they also came to my yard to sit for a while. That lady is really the most handsome I've ever seen in my life, she's really beautiful. Although I was wearing similar clothes to the ladies who admired the chrysanthemums outside, I really had never seen the extravagance around me. ”

I see, duckweed sighed in her heart, and asked again: "Did the lady have any quarrels with you?"

The woman wondered, "No, the lady and we had a good conversation." When I went back, he said that he would come to me again. I really don't know what luck I've been in the past few days, and so many good-looking ladies have come to my house one after another. ”

Duckweed covered her mouth and smiled: "Sister-in-law is not afraid that the eldest brother will see that he has a crooked mind?"

The woman laughed "poof", as if she had heard something particularly interesting, and laughed wildly, and after a long pause, she said: "He, this husband of my family is also notoriously lustful and unkind." There was a beautiful lady before, but somehow, seeing that my husband was stupid, deliberately came to seduce my husband. As a result, my husband was so frightened that he cried, and in the end, I coaxed it for a long time. I have been married to him for so many years, and I have not given birth to a son and a half daughter for him, and I feel very guilty and want to take a concubine for him, but he is unwilling to live or die. ”

After the woman finished speaking, duckweed and the little baby couldn't help laughing.

It turned out that what Princess Zhuang Xuan said, except for the others, nothing was true. For the sake of her own wishes, she wanted to kill such a pure and virtuous person, how could Zhuang Xuan do it.

There was a little more coldness in the duckweed's eyes, but the face was still as warm as a spring breeze, and she said to the woman half-coquettishly: "Sister-in-law, I twisted my foot now, and I can't walk for a while, can I stay at your house for one night and then leave?" Also, I'm hungry, and the food cooked by my sister-in-law must be fragrant, and I want to taste it." ”

The woman couldn't help but smile and said very enthusiastically, "Okay." For the sake of the lady who was born so beautiful and so lovely, I will take you in today. I'm strapped here, don't dislike it. But let's say okay, don't forget your sister-in-law in the future, and don't forget to come in for tea when you pass by. ”

Duckweed and Xiaowa nodded hurriedly. Looking at this busy and enthusiastic woman, as well as the sincere and honest man in the distance, my heart was warm, and my eyes were a little hot.

Autumn is finally here after a rare and refreshing day. Tonight, Qingjun will definitely come, and she will definitely protect them.

What is fateful, she doesn't care anymore.
