Chapter Seventy-Eight: Mountains and Rivers (4000)

The courtyard of Wu'anhou is also built by the mountains and rivers, and the water and sky of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are naturally muddy. There is a view in the lake, and there is a lake in the view.

The channel in the annex leads directly to the lake outside the annex, and the whole annex seems to be built on a single island above the water and sky. In the early morning, the fog in the mountains has not dissipated, and you can still see the misty lake from the observation deck of the annex.

"Miss Yang, it's time to go in and dress up, today is the big day for you and Lord Hou, and it's not good to miss the auspicious time."

A maid took a cloak and gave it to Yang Duxue, she looked at the other party's skin like jade, graceful and graceful, and looked like an immortal. Especially between the clouds and mist, it makes people mistakenly think that Luo Shen is descending to earth.

Although the subordinates in the house were all newly elected by Wu Anhou in Changzhou Mansion, everyone knew that Wu Anhou's main wife was the granddaughter of Changzhou Taishou, a close confidant of the old Wu Anhou. is sixteen years old, it is the time of youth and beauty, and the two have been married for only one year, which should be the time for honey to mix oil. But this marquis has set up such a golden house outside, this is not a concubine to raise an outer room, it is directly to marry a flat wife, listening to the gentleman who is preparing for the marriage and saying that this woman is already twenty and six, she is really an old girl, which is really incredible.

The maids privately wondered if it was a good Oiran from Qinhuai River who hooked the heart of the Hou Ye. It's just that everyone has seen Yang Duxue seems to understand, this girl is really good-looking. Although he is already twenty-six, he looks at the face of no more than two decades, and his gestures are full of everyone's beautiful demeanor, and his frowning will make people happy and sad.

It's just that after a few days with this Yang girl, a few smart maids realized that this Yang girl didn't really want to marry Hou Ye. She seemed to reluctantly agree for the sake of which of her stupid sisters. But Wu'an Hou is also highly respected in Changzhou, whether it is academic or political achievements, appearance and temperament, he is first-class, and there are still girls who do not want to marry Hou Ye.

"I'd like to see Xiaoman again."

"Miss Yang, Master Hou knows that you can't let go of Sister Ling, so he has already asked someone to send new clothes to Miss Man, and let people also dress her up. When she's done grooming, she'll come to your house with you. Hou Ye said that after a while, Miss Man will personally send your sister to marry on behalf of the woman's relatives. ”

"Thank you for informing me!"

"Miss Yang, you are killing the slaves and maids, it is all the Hou Ye who is thinking about Miss Yang, and after today, the slaves and maids will have to change the name of the girl to Mrs. Master Hou is really good to the girl, and the girl will have a long life in the future. ”

Hearing this, Yang Duxue pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, and there was only indifference in her eyes. She looked back at the calm surface of the lake, like a giant cyan mirror. The reflection of the green hills on both sides, and the red mountains surround the jubilant villa courtyard.

"Miss Man, your sister is going to marry Wu Anhou today, and you don't have to worry about the rest of your life."

A little girl said enviously while combing Su Man's hair

"You don't know, how many girls in our city want to enter the Hou Mansion of Wu'an, the Hou Ye is handsome and gentle. I heard that he had a woman who was married in the capital since he was a child, and he kept his promise, and he never got married until the year of his establishment for the marriage contract of the older generation. Later, the woman broke the marriage contract, and our Hou Ye married the current lady....."

"Lamei!"

Another girl, Hongmei, yelled at this Lamei, after all, Wu Anhou had clearly ordered, whoever dared to mention another lady in this house would be severely punished. Before, a maid mentioned the matter of Mrs. Hou Ye in front of Miss Yang, and was almost betrayed by Hou Ye. I think this Hou Ye really treats this Yang girl well, for fear that the other party will feel wronged.

"Whew!" Lamei suddenly reacted that she was almost in trouble, she stuck out her tongue at Hongmei, she looked at the innocent Su Man, and said with a slight sigh of relief

"Hongmei, you said that this girl is also white and cute, how can she be a fool who can't speak. It's a shame. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Hongmei glared at Lamei, she changed into a beautiful new dress for Su Man, looking at the mottled wounds on the other party's body, the wounds were so deep that they were still scabbed, and the shallow scabs had fallen off to reveal the pink new flesh.

Her family was originally a hunter, and she made a living by hunting poisonous insects and snakes in the wild, selling them to pharmacies. She still knows some of these wounds, this girl doesn't know what she has experienced, more than 100 wounds on her body, large and small, are caused by snakes and insects. And the knife wound on her palm looked like it was healing and cutting over and over again.

"I'm not wrong, this girl looks like a little fool, and she is not close to anyone, except for the doctor who looks a little scary. Hiss~~"

"What's wrong with you?"

"How can there be a needle in the head of the girl?" Lamei looked at her fingers, and blood was oozing out.

"I'll take a look," Hongmei stepped forward and parted the head of Su Man's hair, looked at it, and said, "There is really a needle, let's go and report to the Hou Ye to find a doctor to take a look." ”

In the end, the Gaomen Courtyard is now busy with the marriage of the Hou Ye, is there someone who looks at the girl and is stupid and dumb, so they bully her? In the end, they didn't dare to be unaware of the future lady's relatives, and thought about reporting it immediately.

It's just that the two of them were just about to go out when they saw a dark shadow appear at the door, it was none other than the terrifying-looking Doctor Lei. He didn't speak, but just looked at Lamei and Hongmei coldly, and the two of them began to tremble for some reason. Not to mention that this Doctor Lei looks terrifying, the eyes in his eyes when he usually looks at people give people the feeling that they are like a corpse in his eyes, which is really terrifying.

"Hello Dr. Lei!"

Hongmei knew that the other party was a VIP valued by Wu Anhou, so she didn't dare to slack off, and immediately saluted.

"Yes!"

"Doctor Lei!" Lamei immediately spoke

"When the slave combed the girl's hair, she found that there was a needle on the top of her hair, this thing is strange, we were about to go to the Hou Ye to make it clear, and we were going to find a doctor to take out the needle. Now that Dr. Lei is here, please ask Dr. Lei to take the needle for Miss Su! ”

"Well, I see, you all go out, I'll check it out for her."

"No, when Dr. Lei goes to the needle on the girl's head, the slave will have to comb her hair in a bun."

"Then I'll just comb it."

"No, it was Master Hou who ordered me to serve Miss Man to comb her hair. Dr. Lei is also a guest, how can you bother Dr. Lei! ”

Hearing this, Lei just sneered at the girl in front of him, and his distorted face made people more and more terrifying. Hongmei immediately pulled Lamei down and asked her not to say more, she felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little depressing at the moment, and she just wanted to open her mouth when she heard Su Man say

"Xiaoman wants Lei to help Xiaoman comb his hair."

Hearing this, Lamei and Hongmei immediately looked at the girl at this end as if they had seen a ghost, and the little mute who they thought was actually spoken. At this moment, Su Manzheng was looking at Doctor Lei at the door with burning eyes, which made people feel very weird.

"Full ...... The girl spoke......"

It's just that as soon as Lamei finished saying this, she was pulled by Hongmei's sleeves and made a color

"Both of them are honored guests of Master Hou, if Miss Man wants Dr. Lei to help comb her hair, then it is inconvenient for me to disturb again. We'll wait at the door again. After the girl finishes dressing up, we will take the girl to Miss Yang's to get married. ”

After that, Hongmei pulled Lamei out of the room and waited.

"Ray, it's so early today!"

Lei glanced at the two maids who had fled the house in a hurry, the poison needle in his hand was put back, looked at Su Man with some displeasure, and said, "Why did you just speak?" ”

Su Man blinked, showing a confused look, looked at the other party and said, "Xiao Man wants Lei to help Xiao Man comb his hair!" ”

Hearing the other party's answer, Lei's eyes stared at Su Man's eyes without blinking for a moment, as if he wanted to see a flaw in the other party's eyes. I don't know if this girl's acting skills are good, or if she really thinks so.

Seeing Lei's questioning look, Su Man pursed his lips and touched the top of his hair with his hand and said, "Lei, that sister said that Xiao Man had a needle on his head, but why didn't Xiao Man feel it?" ”

"Stop!" A rare hint of panic flashed in Lei's eyes, and he stepped forward and touched his nose slightly, saying, "You are not allowed to move the top of your head indiscriminately." If it weren't for the daily injections for you, your spirit would not be as good as it is now. ”

"Oh!" Su Man had to cowardly agree, then picked up a comb from the table, handed it to the other party, and said with a flattering smile: "Xiaoman can't comb his hair, please help Xiaoman comb one!" ”

Then, Ray took the comb from Su Man and carefully combed her hair, as if he were carefully grooming his beloved pet. Su Man kept smiling and looking at the mirror, Lei patiently combed her hair bun, and after the comb massaged the acupuncture points on the head, Su Man was a little drowsy, and closed his eyes as if he trusted the other party very much and enjoyed the other party's service.

After a pillar of incense, Su Man looked at himself in the bronze mirror and was slightly surprised. Lei actually dressed her up as a Miaojiang girl. A complex bun can make a splash with just a few simple decorations.

After the eyes of the two looked at each other in the mirror, Su Man showed an innocent smile at Lei, and the small pear vortex on her face made people feel that they believed that she really trusted and liked the person in the bronze mirror. It's just that Ray can't see that under the dresser, Su Man's sleeves are covering his hands, clenching his fists.

"Wow~ Lei's bun is so beautiful!" Su Man looked at the mirror very happily for a long time. She was also secretly observing Lei's reaction through the mirror, gentle eyes, the corners of her mouth involuntarily curled, and she stood naturally relaxed. Seeing that the other party had relaxed his vigilance a lot, Su Man felt that he could try again.

"Ray!" Su Man suddenly turned his head and looked at Lei Dao expectantly, "Can Xiao Man comb Lei's hair?" ”

"You...... Don't you know how to comb your hair?"

"But Xiaoman also wants to comb Lei's hair once."

Seeing that Su Man seemed to be a child who was eager to interact with his friends, the expectant eyes made Lei a little uncomfortable, but deep down, he hoped that someone could be so close to him. He didn't answer, and there was a moment of silence that made the atmosphere between the two of them a little chilly.

Su Man pursed his lips, as if he was carefully bargaining, and said, "Is it okay just once?" ”

After seeing Lei nodded, she immediately made a look of gearing up to do something. caused Lei to laugh sullenly, feeling that the child in front of him was really cute. Then he was a little different, and he actually felt that there were things in this world besides Gu poison that were cute things.

She was the first person to take the initiative to get close to herself like this, and she was also the first person in the world to look at her face and ask if it hurt at the time.

Lei looked at Su Man behind him through the mirror, and smiled slightly, if he could, he would try not to let this medicine man suffer too much, even if she couldn't bear the Gu poison attack in the end, he would give the other party a good time.

Su Man over there took a comb and slowly dredged his hair for him like Lei Fangcai, very carefully and seriously. Su Man combed the comb to Lei's neck, her eyes froze, and after her hand moved forward slightly, she saw the hairs on the back of the other party's neck and the tense muscles in her shoulders.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the fingers of the other party's right hand were a little bright, and immediately said a little impatiently

"How long has it been since Ray combed his hair, and many places have knotted it!"

Hearing this, a poisonous needle between Lei's fingers was slightly retracted, and he looked at the girl in the bronze mirror with a displeased expression, where he used a comb to comb through the messy hair in his hand.

In the end, Su Manwei Lei simply tied his hair, although he didn't comb out any bun, but he collected and combed the other party's hair, and looked at the whole person a lot more energetic, but the burns on Lei's face were not covered by the emitation, and it looked more and more obvious and terrifying.

It may not have been a long time since Lei had seen his own appearance so clearly, and his eyes darkened when he thought of the humiliation he had been subjected to because of this dignity in the past.

At this time, Lamei at the door came in and called, "Is Miss Man dressed, the slave is going to take you to Miss Yang's house." ”

-------------------------------------------------

The number of guests in the house gradually increased, in fact, there were not many people invited by Wu'an Hou, except for a few of his very good friends, most of the people were familiar literati and ink writers and their families in Changzhou that he invited. He knew that Yang Duxue liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs. Therefore, most of the people who came to drink the wedding wine today were the people he was looking for for Yang Duxue in Changzhou who would be suitable to be friends with her in the future.
