In the wax moon, the winter snow has just passed.

Before dawn, green smoke had risen above the Yin family in Bianjing, snow-white plum branches were smelling the fragrance wafting from the kitchen, and on the bluestone tiles, half of the dead grass was still exposed outside the thin snow.

The sky was dark, and the girl's soot-dyed half face peeked out from the dark stove.

"Girl, the cake is oily, it's so fragrant, it should be okay!"

Ji Wan tugged at his sleeve and wiped his face, and took out a piece of cake from the stove with a tong.

With a "click", the cake was steaming in half and the meat filling was wrapped in the fragrance of green onions, and Changqing swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes lit up.

"Eat, glutton!"

Ji Wan stuffed half of the cake to her, and when she saw her laughing, she couldn't help laughing.

Changqing suddenly turned around and ran out, and when he came back, he pinched a white plum blossom in his hand and handed it to Ji Juan with a sincere face: "More rewards for my girl, I can't repay the servant!" ”

Ji Juan didn't hold back her smile, and pinched Changqing funny, "Xiao Nizi, if you don't eat it, pay me back!" ”

The master and servant were making a fuss, but they didn't know who had red eyes first.

Changqing cried out without swallowing a mouthful of cake, Ji Juan couldn't help laughing at her, but there was a cry in her voice: "Why are you crying and laughing, you are a little yellow dog!" ”

"Girl, I... Homesick. ”

Ji Wan's heart was sour, and she rubbed her head at Changqing, who was two years younger than herself, "Silly girl, didn't you say that where the girl is, where the home is, how... Repented? ”

In the end, she was only a half-grown girl, Changqing cried out with a "wow", threw herself into Ji Wan's arms, and whimpered: "Why does Mrs. treat the girl like that, why does the girl marry to Nanwangfu, the girl has already gone to the Grange, why do they still refuse to let the girl go, the girl has frostbite......"

The cold wind poured into the house, Ji Juan reached out and gently patted Changqing's back, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Yunyang Bofu, she has long been nostalgic.

From the moment she was ten years old, when her aunt died and she was sent to the Grange, she knew that her life was not in her own hands.

So she forbears everywhere, every time she faces her mother-in-law, she looks obedient, her eyebrows are low, she puts away her edges and corners, and polishes herself to be smooth and not piercing.

In the end, it was treated as an object and sent to the Nanwang Mansion.

The mother-in-law said to her in a rewarding tone, and her voice was sharp: "Ninth girl, you have become the princess of Nan, but don't forget your sister, I know that you are a good child, and in the future in the Nanwang Mansion, don't forget the rules." ”

Propriety? What kind of rules are for her to follow the rules she gave and obediently be a marionette? Or continue to lie obediently at the feet of my mother-in-law, wagging my tail and begging for mercy!

Ji Wan's heart was cold, but her moving face was still coquettish, and she didn't seem to know anything about the world.

She was fed a decoction and sent to a sedan chair, and she was groggy and married, and on the night of the cave room, she saw the devouring look in the eyes of King Nan, and she knew why such a "reward" would make her pick up a bargain.

She didn't know how she had come over those days, humiliated, painful, unbearable...... Like a nightmare.

Where is she the princess of the south, she is clearly the forbidden concubine of the king of the south, the torture and insults day and night make her hate every candle and every ray of light in the happy room!

On the day of her father's accident, Changqing came in to ventilate and report the news, and when she saw that Ji Juan was no longer human, she was so angry that she almost went to Nanwang to fight hard, but in the end, Ji Juan stopped her, so she didn't make trouble.

Changqing couldn't bear her to continue to be tortured, and tried to help her find the right time to escape.

But she didn't want the East Window incident to happen that night, and the king of the south wanted to kill her, and it was Changqing who sacrificed her life to protect her.

It's just that Ji Juan didn't expect that the sixteenth master of the Yin family would help.

They were taken away.

She thought that he was also coveting his beauty, and when she saw the sixteenth master lying on the couch that day, she almost cried and begged him: "I...... I'm a married sister-in-law. ”

He just asked her what she would do, and she said that she could cook, so he promised to let her be a cook in the house, take care of food and housing, and not be bullied.

Ji Juan has nowhere to go, and for the sake of today, there is only the way to stay.

Changqing gradually stopped crying, "Girl, when you have saved enough money, let's run." ”

She looked at Ji Juan very seriously, with deep longing in her eyes.

Ji Juan stretched out her hand to hug her, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, silly girl, life will get better and better, and I will personally watch my family get married in the future!" ”

@@@

A cough sounded on the brocade couch, and in the faint light of the sky, a young man in a snow-white shirt sat up with half of his body propped up.

Du Sheng hurriedly got up from the ground, and quickly poured a bowl of warm water for Yin Chi, "Master! ”

Handing back the bowl, Yin Chi raised his eyes and looked at the window of the Liyue Cave behind the Duobao Pavilion, his eyes dark.

He had nightmares again.

The dream was always intermittent and fragmented, but gradually it was connected together.

In the dream, the night snow hit the window, and in the small courtyard of the farmhouse, the window with a thin frost revealed a little orange and yellow light.

The young man's resolute look grew thicker in the blood of Tsing Yi, and the tip of the needle poked at the painful place, and he couldn't help but let out a few muffled snorts, with a man's unique timbre in the depression, which was inexplicably a little seductive.

As if frightened by his voice, the thin fingers of the white onion holding the needle shrank, and the eyes were watery.

The girl's eyebrows and eyes were clear and clear, and when she saw him bowing her head, she lowered her head and bit off the cotton thread in her hand.

"Well... All right. ”

Yin Chi turned his head to look at the sealed wound, and took out a silver ingot from his arms: "I'm afraid I'm going to disturb the girl these days." ”

The tone is quite polite.

The girl seemed to be undecided, with tears in her eyes, but she bit her lip and stared at him with some stubbornness, it turned out to be a girl with a character, Yin Chi couldn't help but say: "Don't be afraid, I won't stay too long, but you can't leak my whereabouts, otherwise it is the best way to silence it." ”

It was a threatening tone, and the girl's eyelashes trembled, as if she was about to cry.

It seems that he always dreams that she is crying, crying so much that his heart hurts, and he cries so much that he wants to hold her in his arms and cherish her.

But in a blink of an eye, she didn't cry anymore, and she couldn't make any more sounds......

Thinking of this, Yin Chi's chest was stuffy, "Let the cook make some snacks." ”

When Du Sheng heard this, he hurriedly responded, "The little one is going!" ”

In the large kitchen of the Yin Mansion.

"There's anything else to eat on the stove, but the master woke up at this time, saying that he was a little hungry, and asked the girl to make some snacks."

Du Sheng said, walked around the room, and finally stood still in front of Ji Xuan, with a smile on his face.

Half an hour later, a bowl of meatball bone noodle soup came out of the pot, and Changqing came over with a tray of red paint and gold, "Girl, I'll send it." ”

Ji Juan shook his head, "I'll do it myself." ”

Upper house.

There are a few red lanterns hanging under the eaves, and it is approaching the end of the year, but there is a bit of joy, but the sixteenth master has been sick for a few days, and the people in the courtyard dare not come out, so he suppressed this joy.

The north wind was cold, and the cheeks were painful, and Ji Juan only felt that the frostbite on his hands hurt a little.

After a while, the carved and gold-painted door opened from the inside, and a willow-eyed girl wearing a green jacket with folded branches and flowers walked out.

Seeing Ji Juan, the corners of her eyes lifted.

"The bedding is all washed?"

Ji Wan's knuckles pinching the tray turned slightly white, but she responded with a smile: "Sister Caihui, don't worry, it's all washed." ”

The maidservant named Caihui listened and bowed her head with satisfaction, "Just wait here, and the master will call you back when he runs out." ”

There was a slight sound in the door, and Yin Chi couldn't help but look at the door, but saw Cai Hui handing over the tray to Du Sheng with a smile, whispering, and looking at him twice.

The lantern outside the house swayed in the cold wind, Cai Hui lowered her head and smiled shyly, and the dappled light and shadow on her cheeks added a bit of charm.

Yin Chi quietly withdrew his gaze, but his voice was terrifying: "Let Jiu'er come in." ”

When Du Sheng heard this, he hurriedly turned his head to look at Cai Hui.

There was a burst of light in Cai Hui's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and pushed the door out.

"Hey, Master told you to go in!"

Ji Juan couldn't help but stomp his feet when he was frozen, rubbed his hands and sighed, heard the sound, saw that it was Cai Hui, and glanced at the room where the stove was shining, and nodded involuntarily.

As soon as she entered the house, Du Sheng came up to her, squeezed his eyebrows at her and motioned her to be careful, and pulled Caihui out of the door.

She was the only one left in the room, Ji Wan's heart couldn't help but tighten, and she raised her eyes to see the man sitting on the kang who seemed to be concentrating on eating noodles.

Yin Chi satisfied the last chopsticks noodles into his mouth, and took another sip of soup, the salty, fragrant and delicious soup did not need to be touched between his lips and teeth, and there was an indescribable taste that kept playing.

"What's wrong with the hand?"

Putting down the bowl, Yin Chi just swept it slightly, and saw Ji Wan's hand crossed on his waist, Yin Hong.

Ji Wan hurriedly retracted his hands behind his back, pursed his lips and did not speak.

Yin Chi is not a patient person, he only hooked his hand, and Ji Juan obediently stood in front of him.

On the skin as smooth as jade, the red sores were eye-catching and dazzling, and the more Yin Chi looked at it, the more his face became heavier, "When did you get it?" ”

Ji Juan raised her eyes slightly, the man's eyebrows and eyes were clear, but she showed a resolute color, and she whispered: "Cooking on the stove is inevitable." ”

Yin Chi didn't ask again, he knew that she was lying.

As soon as she left, he called Du Shenglai: "Chacha, who can't get along with Jiu'er." ”

When he returned to the room, Changqing hurriedly greeted him, pulled out the blanket on his wrist and wrapped Ji Juan tightly.

"Girl, is Cai Hui embarrassed you again? We didn't recruit her to provoke her, but she couldn't get along with us everywhere, which is really hateful! If you want me to say, the girl should talk to the sixteenth master, such a person can bear her to do something. ”

Ji Juan didn't speak, looking at the frostbite cream in Changqing's hand, his heart sank slightly.

If the sixteenth master has the heart to protect her, why should some words be declared, if he has no intention, it is useless to say more, and some things will stop at the point.
