Chapter 17: It's a Demon
I'm a person who can't hide my words. She didn't expose me in front of everyone, and although I was grateful, I wanted to know more about why she pretended to be nothing.
I said, "Actually, I'm a demon." ”
She was slightly stunned at first, and then smiled slightly, I couldn't understand what her expression was, and asked her, "Why didn't you demolish me at dinner today?" ”
"The moment I saw the cyan blood flowing from your hands, I didn't know you were a demon, but I knew you were a good girl." She said as she left it dry
's clothes were packed up, and he said, "But can you tell me why you are in the General's Mansion and why you are with General Feng?" ”
I think what she meant by saying this should be to test my intention to appear in the General's Mansion, she knows that I am Sisi, it must be because of Zhang Jin, I think Zhang Jin told her about me, so she asked this question.
In the past, I really wanted to be unfavorable to Feng Ziling, but now I understand that I have found the wrong person. If this original intention is said, it will not be very good, I said: "If you and Zhang Jin think that I will be unfavorable to Feng Ziling, you will think about it more, I came to the General's Mansion, but it is just a ......" After thinking about it, I used the word "admiration", I said: "I just came to the General's Mansion because I admired General Feng, and I didn't think about other things, I just wanted to be with Feng Ziling." ”
When she heard me say this, she seemed to be relieved, and said: "Actually, as soon as I saw you, I thought you were a good girl, but he was too careful in handling things, and General Feng was a rare good general." You will be happy with him. ”
After hearing this, I didn't know how to pick it up, so I could only smile, Feng Ziling because he agreed to help the eldest mother find her daughter, and I didn't come back when I went out with Zhang Jin in the afternoon.
The clear and light moonlight shrouded the big mansion of Zhang's mansion, and a few tea trees by the stone gate in the backyard were rustled by the night wind.
By the candle flame on the log table, I looked at the furnishings in the room, and for a moment I didn't feel sleepy, so I got up and took the cloak on the screen, blew out the candle on the table, and pushed the door out with a small lantern.
The moonlight is so good tonight, in fact, I have always been a person who likes moonlight, Feng Ziling didn't lie to me, the environment of Zhangfu is different from other places, except for the few tea trees in front of the stone gate, the pots of ink orchids in front of the stone table, even the gravel along the way is different from other places. Put the claw lantern on the stone table in the courtyard, and look at the scenery in the courtyard through the clear moon and silver light.
When it was so quiet, there was a figure walking in front of the courtyard, and that figure looked very similar to Li'er's, I thought what she was going to do when she came out at night? Curious, I followed, I followed her all the way to the backyard, after two crescent stone doors, Li'er finally stopped, I took a few steps over, saw Li'er sitting on the stone steps in the backyard, holding some small pastries in her hand, feeding the little rabbit in the cage, she said while feeding: "I was busy today, I almost forgot you, are you hungry?" ”
I saw her coughing, her face was very pale under the light, she coughed a little badly, I wanted to go out to smooth her down, but I saw a tall man coming from the corridor, it was Zhang Jin.
I'm going to retract the foot I wanted to step out of.
But I was curious to hear about the corner. He shrank slightly to the wall, ready to listen to the corner.
The poor child who was still coughing just now, looked at the person who came, it was Zhang Jin, and quickly stood up and said, "Xianggong, are you back?" You must be tired tonight, have you had dinner? Let's go and give you a hot meal. ”
Zhang Jin didn't answer, just went straight to the stone steps, he didn't look at her in his eyes, the sadness in Li'er's eyes stung my eyes, what I saw today, this Zhang Jin is really hateful, such a good girl as Li'er, since he has married back home, why didn't he even look at her, if so, why did he marry her in the first place, I wanted to go out and hold a grievance for Li'er, I just wanted to step out, but my wrist was grabbed.
Feng Ziling didn't know where to come from, so he grabbed my hand and said, "What do you want to do?" ”
I glanced at the direction Zhang Jin had just walked, pointed to Li'er and said, "I just want to ask Zhang Jin ......."
Speaking of this, a cold wind set off in my ears, which made my whole body tremble, and the unfinished words were interrupted by Feng Ziling: "I have said it many times, why bother with other people's family backgrounds." ”
"I ......"
He took my hand and walked back: "I haven't slept until late at night, and I still come here to listen to the corner." I was dragged all the way back by him, the evening wind blew the trees rustling in the two places next to the door, tonight's room was obviously arranged for me by Li'er, but Feng Ziling found it as if he was familiar with the road, as if he saw my doubt, he smiled and said: "I usually sleep here here, Li'er's sister-in-law is safe, I know that she will definitely arrange you here." ”
We opened the door and entered the room, and saw the neat quilt on the bed. Feng Ziling first took off his shoes and untied his windbreaker and climbed into bed, sleeping to the innermost side, but I looked at the bed, some couldn't move, I hesitated for a while, Feng Ziling said: "Don't come to sleep yet?" What are you worried about? Don't worry, I'm tired today and won't do anything to you. ”
I was a little relieved, but I said, "What do I mean by that...... By the way, you said that you went to help the eldest mother find her daughter this afternoon, but you have a whereabouts? ”
I took off my shoes and climbed into bed, Feng Ziling's hand went around, touched my face, and gently pinched it: "The eldest lady's daughter has never been found, but another case has been involved." ”
I slapped him away, I don't know why, he seemed to like pinching my face, and I said, "What case?" ”
His hand that had just been slapped away came up again, and I was hugged by him from behind, and he rubbed on my shoulder and said: "I thought it was an ordinary missing case, who knew that there have been several cases of missing girls in a row, these missing girls, some were found in the Qinglou, and some were found in Goolan, the source of which is that there have been flower thieves in the capital recently, first abducting the girl to take away her innocence, and then selling people into the kiln to make money." ”
When I heard this, I was already very angry, clenched my fists and said, "There is such a thing." ”
He sighed slightly: "Now the situation in the world is unstable, there are not only such things, but there are many such things, which is why I always don't allow you to be late and not return, just because I am afraid that you will encounter such things." ”
My heart was pounding, I don't know why, it turned out that there was a reason why he was so angry with me when I came back later, and the reason was because he was worried about me.
I didn't speak, he didn't speak, maybe because I was tired of going to find my daughter's daughter for my aunt today, and after a while, I heard his slight snoring, listening to this sound, I felt very safe, and I fell asleep quickly.
On the second day, there was a maid and a maid to wake up, and I slept well last night, but I have always been in bed, and it is a common thing in the general's mansion, and I don't want to go to this house, and I can't rely on the bed, and I was woken up by the knock of the maids.
Feng Ziling woke up early in the morning and went out, I got out of bed first, dressed myself before opening the door to let the maids in, the two maids have already brought hot water towels, salt and mouthwash water, when I was in the General's Mansion, these things were all done by Cai'er, and when I first came to Zhang's Mansion, I was a little unaccustomed.
After washing, the two maids let me sit in front of the bronze mirror next to the bed, and took a wooden comb to tie my hair, I looked at the not very good-looking face in the bronze mirror, and felt for a while, why did Feng Ziling fall in love with me, obviously the posture of the princess Yushan is also a captivating city, but after all, I made a mistake, but I will not look at my Zhang Ping's unremarkable appearance.
The only thing I am proud of is the long black hair, which is not very difficult to take care of at the back of my head, and the maid and maid can also look at it if they comb it a little neatly. After dressing up, I followed the maids to breakfast, and strangely enough, Li'er did not have breakfast with me.
Wait until after breakfast, the two little maids in the front yard came to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, I was bored, I thought about going to the West Wing Courtyard to find Sister Li'er, my steps have not yet stepped into the courtyard, I have heard bursts of laughter and laughter from inside, until I passed the stone gate, then I heard the voice clearly, it was a maid's voice: "Look at her, busy with this and that all day long, but what's the use, the adults haven't looked at her with their eyes." ”
The woman who spoke was no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, and she looked quite standard, wearing a purple skirt and a small blue mattress on her head, and was watering flowers in the courtyard.
The other said: "No, if it's me or her, it's better to pack up your things and leave as soon as possible, so as not to annoy people here." ”
When I heard this, I was about to go out and ask if the "she" they were talking about was a pity.
Just as I was about to go out to ask, Li'er came from the side door, saw me, and said with a smile: "Why are you here, I made some new snacks this morning, you come here, I will taste it with you." As he spoke, he pulled me to the gazebo in the backyard, and while packing up the wooden pot in his hand, he ordered a little maid to make a pot of tea.
I was pulled by her to sit down at the stone table in the courtyard, there were some dried fruits and various small snacks on the table, Li'er sat over, and said: "I've been a little busy lately, and I haven't been with you much but it's not good for me, I'll take you to the Guanyin Temple to incense." ”
I originally felt bored to stay in this old house of the Zhang family, and Li'er said that she would take me to the Guanyin Temple to offer incense, I was naturally happy, so I nodded a little excitedly. But I don't want so many things to happen because of the incense.
