Chapter 473: Old Things
"Mama Zhou, the medicine that the old lady took was handled by Xiao Fu, right?"
Yan's eyebrows raised, and his eyes flickered.
The dark eyes turned, pondered, and nodded.
"Yes, count the days, the old lady should run out of medicine these days."
Mama Zhou replied honestly, Yan's Wan'er.
"You go and call Xiao Fu up, and say I want to see him."
Yan lowered his head and looked at the blood stains on his body, which were bright red but beautiful.
She had liked this color for a long time, since Luo Shu's death...... It was probably the happiest time of her life.
"Now?"
"Now!"
Yan affirmed, and Mama Zhou looked at the window outside, and it was dark.
It can be seen that Yan's is so resolute, Mama Zhou does not dare to disobey.
"Yes."
Bow your head and respond softly.
Yan watched Mama Zhou leave, she got up, braced herself, walked to the cabinet, and opened it.
Picking up a red dress from the inside and comparing it on his body, Fang Cai's face was still very ugly, but now he has some blood.
She can't fall down here.
Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, compared to the fourteen or fifteen girls outside, she was considered an old pearl yellow, no wonder Xiao Yongde didn't even look at her.
Yan stroked his face, tears crystal and pale.
The candles in the room flickered, and she put on her red dress and learned to turn the girl around, as if she had returned to the previous pavilion.
Suddenly, the door slammed and she stopped, returning to her original form.
"Madam, Steward Xiao is here."
Mama Zhou lowered her voice, afraid that she would hear it.
There was a man coming on the third watch, and it was impossible to wash it if it was seen and passed out, so she first branched out the maids.
"Come in."
Yan sat on the chair, supported his hair, and sat upright.
Xiao Fu thanked Mama Zhou, and then stepped into the house, Mama Zhou closed the door and waited outside.
When Xiao Fu stepped into the house, he saw the red dress, his eyes moved slightly, and his expression changed.
The body stiffened slightly, and after a few seconds of pause, he realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to cross the rules.
"Brother Ji, sit down."
shouted softly, which made Xiao Fu's expression move, and he stood in place and didn't dare to move.
"Madam, the old slave is the housekeeper of the Xiao family, you should call the old slave Xiao Fu."
Xiao Fu bent down and bowed his head, pointing out that it was inappropriate.
Yan Shi disagreed, raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were full of autumn water.
Although she is not as glamorous as she was back then, she is not inferior now, she doesn't know about other men, but she knows that Xiao Fu is definitely useful.
"In my eyes, you are Brother Ji, and you will always be my Brother Ji."
"Madam, now you are the eldest lady of the Xiao family, and the old slave is just a subordinate."
Xiao Fu lowered his head, and when he looked at those eyes again, he would think of the past.
Yan got up, twisted his waist and walked to Xiao Fu to hold his hand, making Xiao Fu look up at her.
"This eldest lady is not majestic at all, so what if she is not right?"
"Brother Ji, do you think I look good in this dress? You said before that I look good in red. ”
Yan grinned, but refused to let go of Xiao Fu's hand.
"Ma'am."
Xiao Fu wanted to break free, but felt that these hands were terribly cold.
Now that she is his wife, he is a subordinate, and Yan has gone beyond what he has done, and if he wants others to see it, both of them will be ruined.
He looked at the clothes Yan was wearing, and remembered the original incident.
He likes to see Yan wearing red clothes, but after entering the Xiao Mansion, she likes to wear goose yellow clothes and looks calm.
"Brother Ji Qing, you used to call me Suhuai, why are you now a lady? Do you hate me? ”
Ji Qing was his name when he was not in Xiao Fu, when he was still an inconspicuous member of the Yan family, and the Yan family was not yet Mrs. Xiao, the Yan family at that time was simple and cute, Xu was a trick, and even let a little family member call her name, which was taboo, but he really shouted, and the voice of Brother Ji Qing has been lingering in his mind.
Later, the Yan family's housekeeper found out about this and drove him out of the house.
Later, Emperor Chu married Yan to Xiao Yongde, and he went to Xiao's house to work as a short-term worker, but he met Yan and put him in Xiao's mansion so that he would not starve to death.
After entering the Xiao Mansion, he changed his name to Xiao Fu, Ji Qing had long forgotten his name, and he didn't think that Yan would remember.
In this mansion, except for the two of them, no one should know that he and the Yan family have known each other for a long time.
"Madam, tell me what you have to say."
Xiao Fu pushed Yan away, if this situation continues like this, it will cause a catastrophe.
Who knew that Yan threw himself and hugged Xiao Fu, tears flowed down his face, and he would cry silently when he was wronged as before.
He hung his hand, and finally couldn't help but pat Yan's back.
He knew that there was nothing good for the Yan family to find him, and he still remembered the last time the Yan family called him Ji Qing......
Xiao Fu sighed heavily.
Yan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and there was a strange light in his eyes.
The candle flame flickered, reflecting her face strangely.
The pale face gradually distorted, and then hideous, like a ghost in hell, oozing people.
"Brother Ji Qing, only you can help me......"
Smelling the fragrance emanating from Yan's body, Xiao Fu confused his mind, and the fire in his heart seemed to be being provoked, and he wanted to let go, but he couldn't let go.
"As long as Madame tells me, the old slave will do it."
Yan's eyes were half-narrowed into a crescent moon shape.
"I know that Brother Ji Qing is the best for me, the old lady's medicine has always been arranged by you, I want to ......"
Yan stepped on his feet and muttered a few words in Xiao Fu's ear, Xiao Fu's expression changed and he hesitated.
"Ma'am, isn't that bad? The old lady is not bad to you on weekdays, if you ......"
Xiao Fu dissuaded, and Yan said sharply: "Not bad? I'm not dead, but what do you see she did? Dividing the right of the Xiao family's steward into two, Xiao Changge became the fourth princess, and my Le'er just played a trick to become a side concubine, but he was criticized and blamed by everyone. ”
"It's her unkindness first, don't blame me for being unjust!"
Yan sneered, her freshly combed hair was messed up again, how could she have the majesty of her usual at this moment, she looked like a madman.
"Brother Ji Qing, if you don't help me, no one will help me."
There was grievance in the trill, and tears flowed down the cheeks.
"Brother Ji, I'll leave this matter to you."
Yan approached Xiao Fu and took out a small pack of medicine from his sleeve and stuffed it into Xiao Fu's hand like a trick.
Xiao Fu held the medicine and looked at Yan hesitantly.
"Brother Ji, it seems to be beautiful for me to marry into the Xiao family, but I am the least favored among several people, the old lady is good to me and Changle is just because I am behind the Yan family, and I have some interests with her Jiang family."
Yan complained, and Xiao Fu was distressed when he heard it.
"Now here, the only people I can trust are you and Mama Zhou."
Seeing Xiao Fu's moved, Yan held his hand tightly.
This sentence moved Xiao Fu, for more than ten years, she has treated him as her own, and this is enough.
"Old slave, obey."
Xiao Fu responded, and Yan wiped his tears and looked at Xiao Fu with relief.
"Su Huai, do you think we will go to hell if we do this?"
Xiao Fu put his hand on the door, and wanted to open the door to go out, but he stopped his pace and turned his head to ask.
He is very weak now, since he came to the Xiao Mansion to help the Yan family do a lot of dirty things, he also knows that he will not die well in the future, but he and the Yan family are in the same boat earlier, from the time of Luo Shu's death......
The older a man gets, the more he thinks about things, and when he thinks about it too much, his hair turns gray, and he can't even sleep well, and now he repents as soon as he closes his eyes, hoping that those who have died will forgive him, and that he will suffer less after death.
"Hell? If it's hell, I'll drag the entire Xiao family with me. ”
His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked even more eerie in the night.
The voice was fierce, and the tone was full of complaints.
He knew that he couldn't persuade Yan, so he could only help her and help her achieve her goal.
"Brother Ji Qing, the only people I can trust are you and Mama Zhou, if you don't help me, I'm really going to collapse."
Yan looked up, feeling a little pleading.
Xiao Fu sighed heavily: "I owe you all this." ”
After finishing speaking, she opened the door and left, and Mama Zhou saw Xiao Fu leave and hurriedly entered the house.
Mama Zhou just entered the door, but was startled by Yan.
Yan sat slumped on the chair, his freshly painted makeup already dizzy and embarrassed.
As if she had exhausted all her strength, she looked in the direction of the door and smiled sadly.
It's all they owe her, they should pay it back, they should pay it back!
"Ma'am, are you alright, ma'am?"
Mama Zhou hurriedly helped Yan, but Yan's stopped her.
She propped herself up on the table and staggered towards the bedroom as if she had lost her soul.
"I'm fine, I have to prepare for Le'er tomorrow, Le'er is going to be a side concubine, but I can't be sloppy."
Five watches
It wasn't until the fifth watch that Xiao Changge felt a little sleepy, and Chu Yu fell asleep on the couch when he came from the South Courtyard.
Xiao Changge thought about it, thinking about who the man in black who entered her father's study at that time, and whether he took away the letters exchanged between Xiao Yongde and Gao Yuan, he suspected that it was Chu Yan, but if it was Chu Yan, he should have shown those letters when her father returned to the court, so Xiao Yongde didn't even have a chance to turn over, but Chu Yan didn't do it.
In other words, the letter is not on Chu Yan, otherwise, according to Chu Yan's character, those letters should be taken out in front of Emperor Chu.
With Xiao Yongde here, Chu Yan will never feel at ease.
……
The next day, Xu Fu was waiting in the East Courtyard early, and when Chu Yu came out, Xu Fu was still covering his mouth and snickering, looking at Chu Yu's eyes strangely.
"I don't know which one Steward Xu are you singing today?"
Chu Yu tied his belt and straightened his clothes.
"Lord Wang, what kind of drama can the old slave sing? The old slave just thinks that you have finally grown up, and the old slave is happy. ”
Xu Fu said earnestly, remembering Xiao Changge's majestic appearance last night, the stone hanging in his heart was put down a little.
"The princess is still resting inside, don't disturb her. Her personal maid borrowed Ling'er for a few days, and first found a few maids for her to serve, so that she could be more reliable and smart. ”
Chu Yu advised, Xu Fu was secretly happy in his heart.
He had never seen Chu Yu worry about others so much, and he hadn't even told him so much in the Southern Courtyard.
"Yes, the old slave knows, look, these maids and family members are the most clever in the palace."
Xu Fu stepped out of the way, looking at the columns of people behind him, all bowing their heads and waiting for the housekeeper to order.
"Twenty-four? That's not your style. ”
Chu Yufeng's eyes raised slightly, and they swept away.
There are twelve maids in a row, twelve housekeepers, a total of twenty-four. Even the queen didn't have such a big pomp around her.
