Chu Yue and Xie Siyun glanced at each other and shrugged their shoulders, indicating that there was nothing they could do.

With her identity, if she is strong, she will be tortured to death if she comes back.

Xie Siyun didn't seem to think of a good way for a while, so he just nodded, and quietly let them here: "Ah...... Then get ready to rest. Tomorrow afternoon we will start on the road, and we will only have the last night's rest time for today, so we will be resting! ”

Chu Yue wanted to have a good rest, but as soon as they went upstairs, Yan Zhenzhen brought a basin of foot washing water, and put it under Xie Siyun's feet warmly and diligently: "Master, concubine will wash your feet!" ”

In fact, the word "concubine" is mostly a more humble name for women in this era. Even if Chu Yue is the main wife, if there are necessary occasions, she has to call herself a "concubine".

However, Hatsuki's hatred for this word is no less than the hatred for smelling durian.

Looking at her coquettish appearance, Chu Yue suddenly had a bit of a teasing heart: "Yo, this is enough to be courteous!" Is the water temperature enough? Don't be cold. ”

Her delicate voice was far from Xie Siyun speaking like this with her body, but it was also very different from usual.

The person's Xie Siyun turned his head in surprise, but he met Chu Yue's sly smile, and his whole body was resisting Yan Zhenzhen's approach.

Yan Zhenzhen was stunned, knowing that Chu Yue was not well-intentioned, but under her smile, she had to reply cautiously: "Madame, don't worry, although the concubine is stupid, the young master will also be the concubine's official in the future, and it will be the concubine's heaven." The concubine will definitely serve the young master and his wife well, and I hope that the lady will leave the concubine with a way to live! ”

She almost forcibly brought the basin of water to Xie Siyun's front and pressed Xie Siyun's feet down.

The moment Xie Siyun's feet were pressed down, his eyes widened and he looked at Chu Yue, as if to indicate that he needed Chu Yue's help.

It's rare that this man will show weakness, and the first moon won't hold a shelf.

looked at Yan Zhenzhen, who was seriously washing Xie Siyun's feet, with some disgust: "You just said that you will serve the prime minister and me well, but?" ”

"Nature."

Yan Zhenzhen looked low and pleasing to the eye: "I was too ignorant before. My aunt has taught me a lesson, and I ask my wife to forgive me. ”

Chu Yue nodded, took off her shoes and socks and shook them in front of Yan Zhenzhen: "Since you will serve me and Xianggong well, why did you prepare a basin of water?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Yan Zhenzhen's action of washing Xie Siyun's feet seriously stopped, and her aggrieved big eyes raised her head, looking at Chu Yue with watery eyes, as if she had been bullied by Chu Yue.

She thought that Xie Siyun would help her speak, but she didn't expect Xie Siyun to cough lightly, and she actually stood on Chu Yue's side: "Yes, Madame has also worked hard all day." Since you have this in mind, you should also prepare the lady's water, and then serve it yourself! ”

As he spoke, he didn't forget to pull his foot out of the basin: "Since your aunt wants you to be our three-room concubine, she should naturally teach you these rules." Now that you don't know so much, it's just that, you can go down first, and I have something to discuss with my wife. ”

No matter how coquettish Yan Zhenzhen was, this trick was useless in front of Xie Siyun.

Even Chu Yue couldn't help but slander: What a ruthless and cold-hearted man!

Yan Zhenzhen, who was dealt with by such a "joint operation" of the couple, finally couldn't hang up her already thin skin anymore.

She stood up suddenly, shook her water-stained hand, and looked at Xie Siyun with a blushing face aggrievedly: "Does the young master have to treat the concubine like this?" ”

Xie Siyun also raised his eyebrows slightly, and personally picked up a footcloth to wipe his feet: "What did I do to you?" ”

Standing there for a long time, Yan Zhenzhen couldn't say why, just kept rubbing the corners of her clothes, and even her fingers were a little red.

Xie Siyun didn't want to embarrass her anymore, just waved his hand: "Okay, I have to go tomorrow, let's go back to sleep early." Don't do such stupid things in the future, I can see your thoughts, and Madame can understand them. If you are safe along the way, we may still be able to get along, but if you are restless, don't blame me for being unkind. ”

His words were already a bit serious for a woman.

Yan Zhenzhen looked like she was about to cry, but she saw that Xie Siyun was really not distressed, so she could only squirm and go out of the room.

"Tut-tut-"

For this man, Chu Yue remained very vigilant: "It's really ruthless." She is also the daughter of a big house, a young lady who is a child, so you treat her like this? ”

Xie Siyun dried his feet, but put on his shoes and socks again: "It's her who is willing to be cheap, and I have no reason." What's more, I'm also solving a problem for you, and you don't even appreciate me? ”

Hatsuki really didn't know where these words of gratitude came from.

Just shrugged his shoulders: "I'm not in trouble." You will take a concubine sooner or later, and we have already agreed between us. So you don't have to feel like a hassle for me. One is Na, and two are too, and you-"

Before Chu Yue finished speaking, she already felt that Xie Siyun's eyes had changed, and he looked at her.

Plausible...... Very dissatisfied?

Chu Yue didn't dare to look back, and she didn't know what Xie Siyun was dissatisfied with, but she didn't speak, and then put on her shoes and socks again: "Let's go." ”

Xie Siyun stood up, put on his robe, and his voice was a little small: "You want me to take a concubine like this?" ”

"Huh? What did you say? ”

Did you hear it wrong? What is the problem?

Chu Yue looked at Xie Siyun with a puzzled face, but looked at him as if he hadn't said what he had just said, and only walked outside with a cold face: "Let's go to the Fat Cooking Workshop first, and then let Yao Qingyan send a carriage to pick it up." Change a carriage, get rid of Yan Zhenzhen and the housekeeper, and hurry overnight. ”

What a cunning fox!

Chu Yue no longer bothered with his question, but felt funny in his heart: I don't know what it will be like to wait for tomorrow morning, Yan Zhenzhen and the housekeeper will feel after seeing that their carriages and horses are not even there.

Fortunately, without Yan Zhenzhen, this road can be considered clean.

In the early moon, they put a large amount of pearl powder in the condensation shop, in exchange for more coils, and after carrying a lot of them on everyone's body, they set out on the road.

After about ten days of going around and around, they finally arrived at their first destination: Tianhu Town.

After Tianhu Town, they will truly reach the South China Sea.

And the reason why they stayed in Tianhu Town was because Qi Duo's master Yin Yuwan was temporarily living in the town, and they needed to put Xie Shen in the town to heal, and then the rest of the people continued to march towards the South China Sea.

Chu Yue could clearly feel that in the past ten days, Xie Siyun's mood was not very good. I can't say what is bad, and I don't dare to provoke it in the first month.

Halfway through, the two of them changed their bodies on a rainy day, and Chu Yue also obediently answered all Qi Duo's questions so that he could make a record.

Fortunately, after ten days of getting along, although Qi Duo still put his dislike for Chuyue on the surface, his relationship with Chuyue eased a little and he was less hateful.

So they got all the way to Tianhu Town, which is peaceful and quiet compared to the Pearl Village where they are located.

The town is built next to the mountain, because there is a lake in the mountain, it is said that there have been many strange things, occasionally you can see a rainbow from the lake, and there have been flying stones falling in the lake, so it is called "Heavenly Lake".

The place where Yin Yuwan temporarily lives is the small grass house next to the Tianhu Lake. It is said that she came to this place when she was 20 years old and developed the antidote to the epidemic at that time, so she was worshipped as a god by the townspeople.

After all these years, although she still travels around, she always returns to Tianhu Town to stay for a long time.

Everyone knows Yin Yuwan, and naturally they also recognize Qi Duo,

As soon as they arrived in town, they were greeted with a warm welcome. There were even some aunts who insisted on stuffing the eggs just laid by their hens into Qi Duo's arms, which made Qi Duo cry and laugh and refuse.

Chu Yue looked at him like this, but his stinky face changed a lot: he and Yin Yuwan must have been very good to the townspeople here on weekdays, so they would treat them so enthusiastically.

On the way up the mountain, Qi Duo's body was covered with all kinds of things sent by the townspeople.

He struggled to carry these things on his back, but he did not forget to tell everyone.

In fact, it was not so much to tell everyone, but to say that he simply looked at Chu Yue: "My master is happy to be quiet, so don't make too much noise after you go up the mountain." Don't touch any of the medicinal herbs in the yard, and don't go to the vegetable garden at the back of the yard. My master goes to bed early and wakes up early, if you have any bad habits, you should be light and don't disturb her. She loves tea and bamboo and doesn't like luxury, so don't try to please her with any gold and silver jewelry. ”

Saying that, he also deliberately emphasized to Chu Yue: "My master is different from ordinary women like you, so don't keep bothering her if you have nothing to do." If you're really bored, go to Tianhu Lake, where the scenery is good. ”

According to what he said, his master is an immortal?

In fact, Chuyue thinks that it is good to like quiet, but it may not be that she doesn't like to be lively at all. It's just because I've been lonely for a long time, and the pursuit of loftiness in my heart is lofty, and this time I don't seem to be close to people and don't care about the ordinary.

I didn't expect Qi Duo to have a master who was as noble as an immortal, which made Chu Yue have a lot of curiosity about Yin Yuwan.

When they arrived at the thatched hut next to the Heavenly Lake, Yin Yuwan was already waiting at the door.

is different from the fairy wind Dao bone that Chu Yue thought, she is dressed in coarse linen clothes, wearing a simple white hosta, although she is over thirty years old and running around, she looks like a girl, and her skin is like clotted fat.

Her appearance is not beautiful at first glance, but the more she looks at it, the more charming it becomes, and the more she looks at it, the more comfortable it becomes, and it is the kind of beauty that is not aggressive.

Perhaps it is more appropriate to describe her with the words "left behind and independent".
