Chapter 2 The Old House

Xi's old house is located in the northeast of the city, and it is a courtyard with two entrances. Although it is an old house, it has been renovated after Xi's prosperity, so it looks better than the general two-entry courtyard. The vermilion wall still looks brightly colored, and the few peeling pieces on the wall do not affect the whole.

When you enter the gate, you will see a row of upside-down houses. Straight to the second door of the inverted seat room to enter the main courtyard, the north main room facing is locked. The wing room on the east side is also rarely inhabited because of the move of the Xi clan, and it is usually cleaned every now and then for emergencies. And the west wing room is where Xi Ningyu is now living.

In the room, there was a bed tent with some old curtains hanging on all sides, and a carved old pineapple wood round table, and a few chairs neatly arranged, which was a dresser that looked like there was no gold jewelry.

At this time, Xi Ningyu was lying on the bed, and after freshening up, she looked a little more energetic. Looking around and looking at the room under him, my heart was really a little unsure. Looking at the sparse furnishings around me, it really looks a little down.

"It turns out that this is the so-called ancient women's boudoir, and it's really better to be famous when you meet!" Xi Ningyu muttered with disdain.

"Oh, miss, you're awake. It's a real rush! As soon as she entered the room and saw Xi Ningyu who had woken up, the old woman said happily and comfortingly.

"......" Xi Ningyu looked at the old woman who came in with some apprehension, and her mind was quickly looking for information about the old woman in front of her.

"Miss, did you hear the old slave?" Looking at Xi Ningyu, who was stunned and didn't speak, the old woman who had just put her mind at ease put the bowl in her hand on the table in horror. Walked quickly to the side of the bed and reached out to touch Xi Ningyu's forehead, and pinched his cheeks that still had a few scratches, and the worried look in his eyes touched Xi Ningyu's heart slightly.

"It's okay, it's okay, Mother Xue." After finding the identity of this old woman in her mind, Xi Ningyu replied weakly.

"Hey~ It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, Miss, come and drink the medicine first." Oh, my miss, don't make such a fuss in the future. Look at your wounds, it's scary. Mother Xue turned around and took the medicine bowl, grabbed Xi Ningyu's small body with one hand and brought the bowl to Xi Ningyu's mouth, talking while feeding the medicine.

"Well, thank you, Mother Xue. I don't have any big deals, but I'm not happy and want to go out for a walk. I didn't expect to get lost and fall unconscious and didn't come back for a night, don't worry. Just raise it for two days! After Xi Ningyu finished speaking, he smelled the medicine, and knew that this was an ordinary healing medicine. She didn't have any major injuries, she couldn't drink any better, she couldn't die if she didn't drink it, and seeing the concerned look on Mother Xue in front of her, it was difficult to refuse, so she raised her head and drank the medicine.

Seeing that Xi Ningyu, who was still a little sad after drinking the medicine, was sitting on the bed, Mother Xue thought that her young lady was still unhappy, so she sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Xi Ningyu and said, "Miss, don't worry too much." Although the imperial capital has not sent any monthly silver in the past few months, it doesn't matter. ”

Mother Xue stretched out her hand to help Xi Ningyu tuck the corners of her back and said, "Say something that shouldn't be said, how much favor our family has received from the eldest lady." Now there is no chance to repay it, that is, the main family really doesn't raise Miss, and we can still give Miss a bite to eat, and we will never be hungry Miss You. ”

Mother Xue turned around and put down the medicine bowl and said, "Although I am a slave, I also know the truth of human ethics. I think that the Xi family was just a wealthy businessman in this small county, but it was just a coincidence that they rescued the eldest lady's maternal grandfather. That's why I finally married your mother. ”

Xi Ningyu looked up at Mother Xue in front of her with a little doubt, the corners of her mouth moved, but she didn't know how to ask, so she looked at this old woman in her fifties and thought to herself, "Could it be that this person knows something about the past between his father and mother who the original owner doesn't know?" ”

Looking at Xi Ningyu, who moved the corners of her mouth, with an expression that she wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, Mother Xue smiled and said, "Actually, Miss doesn't have to wonder, the sister Guo next to the eldest lady knows this matter best." If you ever had a chance to see her in the future, I think she would tell you. I just used to get closer to Sister Guo, and the eldest lady always explained something to do, so Sister Guo told me something. ”

Mother Xue, who got up and was about to leave, turned her head to look at Xi Ningyu again and said, "Your grandfather's family owes the Xi family to pay off early, and the Xi family should never treat the eldest lady's only left Miss Yan like this." Even if you don't send the monthly silver over there in the future, Miss doesn't have to worry about anything, and you won't be hungry. So I also hope that Miss wants to open something and don't hurt herself anymore! After saying that, Mother Xue covered the door and went out.

Looking at Mother Xue who went out, Xi Ningyu pondered alone in her heart: "It seems that there are still some things between the Xi family and my mother that are difficult to declare, but then again, how can my grandfather's family not find any memory in the original owner's mind." Xi Ningyu, who couldn't figure it out, shook his head and stopped thinking, from waking up in the woodland to being rescued, Xi Ningyu always had symptoms of dizziness from time to time. So I don't force myself to be too mentally tired, anyway, I've already crossed here, and I can't go back.

Besides, whether you want to use the original owner's body to survive or not, why care so much, no matter what you have in the future, you can continue it. Thinking of this, Xi Ningyu lay down and planned to sleep again.

"Miss, miss. Get up, and after dinner, shall we go back to sleep? ”

Meng Mengyan heard a female voice with a thick childlike voice, and Xi Ningyu opened her eyes. looked at a well-behaved little girl staring at her in front of the bed in a daze.

"Miss...... Get up and wash your face, and the meal is ready. ”

Xi Ningyu blinked her pair of watery apricot eyes, looked at the well-behaved girl in front of her, and finally realized that this was a personal maid who was sent back to the old mansion with her, named 'Yu'er'.

"Okay, can you get my coat for me?" Xi Ningyu said softly to Yu'er, after all, it was from modern times, and Xi Ningyu still had a lot of things that he couldn't adapt to. Facing such a cute little girl, Xi Ningyu, who is in her twenties, can't be treated like a minion, and she hasn't been called herself!

Seeing that Yu'er, who was about the same age as herself, took her clothes, Xi Ningyu got up and put them on, simply asked Yu'er to comb her hair, and then followed Yu'er to the outer room of the West Chamber. It's said to be an outer room, but it's actually just a place by the door with a screen.

Xi Ningyu looked at the two vegetarian dishes on the table plus a bowl of white rice, and said, "Yu'er, why is there only one pair of chopsticks, you go and get another pair to eat with me." ”

"Miss, that's not good. I am a slave and maid, how can I eat and drink at the same table with my master. If I let Mother Xue know, I'm afraid I'll be talking about people again. Yu'er stared at Xi Ningyu with wide eyes and said.

"Okay, okay, you go and fetch it to eat with me, if Mother Xue knows, you say that I asked you to eat. If she still refuses, then you can call her to come to me and speak. Seeing that the fish didn't move, Xi Ningyu stood up and pushed her out of the door and said.

Seeing Yu'er walking towards the kitchen step by step, Xi Ningyu turned around and sat down to pick up the dishes and chopsticks and ate first, she was really a little hungry.

When the fish came back, the two of them finished eating, and cleaned up the table. Xi Ningyu saw that the sky was still bright, so he got up and walked out. Before he reached the second gate, he heard the voice of the fish coming from behind him: "Miss, where are you going?" It's all here, let's go back to the house and rest! ”

"I felt a little bloated after eating, and I wanted to move to eliminate my appetite. Just walk outside the door, you won't go far. Xi Ningyu turned to look at the fish coming and said.

Yu'er hurriedly walked over and grabbed Xi Ningyu's sleeve and said, "Don't! Miss, you went out the last time and said to go, but you didn't go all night. I'm not going to let you go out today, if there's anything else. The slave is not going to jump into the river, you can do it, go back to the house and rest! ”

Looking at Yu'er's tearful eyes and pouting with a sad expression, Xi Ningyu suddenly felt a little happy in her heart. So he grabbed Yu'er's hand with his backhand and said, "Then let's do it, you go out with me for a walk." I'm not afraid that something will happen again, isn't it, and I don't feel comfortable lying down so swollen, do you think it's okay? ”

The fish poked a finger in his face and thought about it.

"Alright! The young lady must come back as soon as possible, and don't go too far. ”

"Good! We're just outside the door, and we're not going far. You girl has you taken care of me!! Xi Ningyu couldn't cry or laugh in her heart, the original owner ran away from home like this, and the people in the old house looked like frightened cats. I always keep my eyes on myself as if I were looking at gold. He shook his head and happily pulled the fish out slowly.
