Chapter 18: Take Her Home
Seeing that Yue'er was about to get off the couch, the girl glanced at the two girls, and the girls came to stop Yue'er: "Girl, your body is still weak, what do you want to tell the slave maid." ”
Yue'er smiled dryly and raised her hand lightly and put it down: "It's okay, I'm much better, it's just, can I meet the Seventh Young Master?" ”
The two girls turned around in unison, and the woman chuckled and said softly: "The seventh young master is asleep outside, I'll go and see if he is awake, you rest first, what do you want to tell these two girls." ”
She turned around and went out, the two girls smiled, and one of them said: "My name is Mansha, her name is Manxue, we are all serving Miss Yu'er, and the girl has something to order." ”
When Xiang Yu'er went outside, she saw that the Seventh Young Master was still lying on the soft couch, but those eyes were looking at her. She couldn't tell the joy and anger in his eyes, as he always did, and no one knew when he was happy and when he was angry.
She only whispered, "The girl is awake." After that, he sat quietly in front of the desk, picked up the book and read.
The Seventh Young Master was still lying there without moving, and his eyes still fell on Xiang Yu'er's face.
After a long time, he spoke: "I have redeemed you, how about leaving the Huaishui East Building?" ”
Xiang Yu'er stiffened slightly, and was instantly covered up by her faint smile: "The Seventh Young Master said that he was laughing." ”
The two of them didn't talk for a long time, and it wasn't until Ge Lin came in that the Seventh Young Master got up and entered the inner room. Ge Lin didn't follow up, quietly glanced at Xiang Yu'er, and stood aside waiting for the master.
Seeing the Seventh Young Master come in, Yue'er was not so awkward, and there was dependence and joy in her eyes that she didn't even notice: "Are you awake?" ”
He sat on the edge of the couch, took her hand and smiled: "I thought your hands would be cold all the time, and they wouldn't be warm." It's warmer now, but you're still too weak, just drink some medicine after eating later. ”
She didn't notice his tenderness, so she naturally accepted his concern, withdrew her hand and looked at the room and asked him, "Is this your wife's house?" Give me another room, I'm your maid, and I can't live in the master's house. ”
"I'll have someone stew something for you, and I'll take you away after eating, we won't live here."
Man Sha and Man Xue had already retreated when the Seventh Young Master came in, and they came in with a tray at this moment and stood beside the Seventh Young Master.
He still fed her like that, whispering to her as he fed, without even giving her a chance to say that he wanted to eat himself.
The medicine was sent in by Xiang Yu'er herself, and the Seventh Young Master took it and tasted it before feeding Yue'er to eat it. Yue'er wrinkled her little nose and resisted: "Eat a little bit like this, you are deliberately going to kill me if you are co-authored." Hurry up and give it to me, just drink it in one gulp, it's not a good thing, you can try it. ”
The Seventh Young Master smiled and teased her: "If I have such a little taste, how will you be treated?" ”
Yue'er wrinkled her little nose and flattened her mouth silently, and the Seventh Young Master didn't look at Xiang Yu'er and ordered, "Take another bowl." ”
Manxue wanted to go for her, but Xiang Yu'er raised her hand to stop her, so she went and brought another bowl of medicine and handed it to the Seventh Young Master.
The Seventh Young Master touched the bowl to be hot, tasted it again and said, "This bowl is hotter, I'll drink the previous bowl." But if I take a sip, you have to take a sip, and you are not allowed to cheat, okay? ”
Yue'er flattened her mouth and turned her head away, covering her ears and stealing the bell from looking at him. The Seventh Young Master put all the medicine bowls in the tray, took a spoonful of it himself, turned Yue'er's head over, and forced her to look at herself and drink it slowly. Yes, he drank it himself.
Then the spoon reached into another bowl, and took another spoonful and fed it to Yue'er's mouth: "I drank it, and you have to drink it too." ”
Yue'er still resisted: "I just said that I should drink it in one sip, what should I do to suffer me a little bit." ”
"If you drink it in one gulp, you will vomit it out, which makes you drink a little bit, obedient, and drink quickly."
Yue'er can't resist this time, this is indeed her fault, she has been like this since she was a child. No matter how bitter the medicine is, you have to drink it little by little so that you don't vomit out, if you drink it in a bowl, you will spit it out in one gulp.
She didn't think about it that much, but she had to drink it when she was told about it.
So he drank a spoonful and fed her a spoonful. Xiang Yu'er kept standing there watching, Mansha and Manxue couldn't help but look at her, and the two looked at each other again and lowered their heads together.
Finally drank the bowl of bitter medicine, Mansha handed water to rinse the mouths of the two, but the Seventh Young Master didn't need it. So he took a piece of honey from the saucer and pinched it in his hand, and shook it in front of Yue'er's eyes: "Only by taking medicine obediently can you eat sugar." ”
Yue'er rinsed her mouth and stretched out her hand to him to beg for candy, he held her hand with the other hand, and stuffed the candy into her little mouth, looking at her puffing cheeks and eyes were accusing him, he smiled, the smile was so simple and beautiful, brilliant like fireworks blooming in the night of the Lantern Festival, like a dream.
Reach out and pick her up: "Come home with me at night." ”
The thin clothes on her body looked even more miserable in the middle of the night, Xiang Yu'er brought a cloak of her own, and the Seventh Young Master waved his hand and called Ge Lin in. With his cloak in his hand, Greene wrapped Yue'er in it, hugged her in his arms, and left.
Man Sha saw that the person was far away before he dared to speak: "Girl, the Seventh Young Master is really good to that girl!" ”
Xiang Yu'er didn't look at her, but ordered, "Change the futon on the bed." ”
Mansha came out after changing the bedding but found that Xiang Yuer had fallen asleep on the soft couch. Maybe I didn't sleep, I just closed my eyes and didn't say anything. The Seventh Young Master had slept there before, and Man Sha understood Miss Yu'er's heart, so he went out without saying anything.
In a three-entry mansion, Yue'er was still nestled in the arms of the Seventh Young Master, looking at the house under the lights and asking him: "This is not your home, your home should be much bigger than here, right?" ”
He chuckled and couldn't hear the joy and anger: "My home is smaller than here, much, much smaller. ”
"Huh?" She looked at him in surprise, the lights were on and off, and she felt that there was some sadness in his words. But when you think about it, it's obviously a tone without any emotion, how can you hear the sadness?
After carrying her into the house, she put her on the bed and asked, "Do you want to sleep a little longer?" ”
Her face turned red as soon as she snorted, and she didn't dare to look at him: "You go to sleep first, I, I'll sleep later." ”
He suddenly laughed, subconsciously tugged at the corners of his robe, turned around and said, "I'll call someone to come in and serve you." ”
"No, no, I, I can do it." Yue'er got out of bed as she spoke, but she was stunned when she stood there. She wanted to make it easier, but this house was too unfamiliar, where could she go?
At this time, I saw him pointing back to the screen and said, "There, I'll go out first, and someone will serve you." ”
With a red face and watching him go out and close the door, Yue'er hurriedly ran behind the screen and saw that the toilet was there.
There is also a door on the side behind the screen, which is used to boil water according to the normal pattern, and behind this screen, in addition to temporary toilet access at night, there is also a function of bathing. Sure enough, there was a bath bucket placed there, and Yue'er flushed some water into the toilet after it was convenient, and then washed her hands and returned to the front.
As soon as I sat down on the couch, I heard the side door behind the screen open and someone took the toilet. Someone came in and poured water into the tub, and she listened motionlessly to the very clear sound of the night.
There was the muffled sound of a bucket crashing on the tub, the sound of water pouring into the tub, and the smell of water overflowing the screen. There was the sound of heavy but brisk footsteps of the man coming in and out, and the faint fragrance of flowers wafting along with the moisture.
It was the smell of flower dew, which was a little strong at first, but it became less obvious after getting used to it.
