Chapter 1 Rescue
In March, the spring was beautiful, and as soon as the sky was bright, the door of a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Mianzhou City was knocked.
Da Zhuang trotted out of the gatehouse next to him, opened the door and saw the people outside, and asked, "Uncle He, why did you come here this early in the morning?" ”
"Your girl saved my girl yesterday, I and my mother-in-law have nothing to thank, this spring bamboo shoot has just been dug on the mountain and is fresh, and it was sent to the girl to taste." Uncle He untied the back basket on his body, handed it to him, and said with a smile.
There were several thick and big bamboo shoots in the back basket, which were tightly wrapped in bamboo shoots, and the roots were still with soil, Da Zhuang did not refuse, and said, "Thank you." ”
"I should thank you, girl." Uncle He shook his head with a smile, exchanged a few words with Da Zhuang, and left.
Da Zhuang carried the basket to the kitchen, his mother Aunt Lin was busy making breakfast, and told his mother about the bamboo shoots sent by Uncle He, his mother glanced at the basket, and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that Uncle He sent it, and the girl said yesterday that she wanted to eat something refreshing." ”
After speaking, the commander Da Zhuang peeled a bamboo shoot, washed and cut it, made a small dish of sesame oil mixed with spring bamboo shoots, his mother wiped his hands clean, told him to look at the stove, and went out of the kitchen to the east yard.
Stepping into the door of the courtyard, I saw Chun Tao, who was waiting beside the girl, coming out of the house with a copper basin to pour water, Aunt Lin asked with a smile, "Is the girl awake?" ”
"Wake up, sister-in-law bring breakfast." Chun Tao splashed the water on the corner of the courtyard, turned around and saw Aunt Lin, and said with a smile.
Aunt Lin answered, turned around and went back to the kitchen.
Chun Tao lifted the curtain at the door and entered the inner room, her girl was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, and Chun Zhi was combing her hair.
Chun Tao put the copper basin on the shelf on the side, and then went to the bed to make the bed, and accidentally touched a book pressed under the pillow, she took it out and looked at it, and it was a book about ghosts and strange things.
She frowned slightly, her girl didn't know what's wrong, since she came back from Fu'an Temple half a month ago, it seems to be a little different, she never read these books before, but recently let Da Zhuang collect a lot of them from outside, and she reads them with relish every day.
Chun Tao closed the book and put it aside, and glanced at her girl worriedly, Xu didn't sleep well last night, her girl's face was a little sad, and she was in a daze with one hand holding her chin.
"Girl, which pair of earrings are you going to wear today?" Chunzhi put down the wooden comb in his hand, took two pairs of earrings from the jewelry box next to him and asked.
Ji Yunyun came back to his senses and casually pointed to the pearl earrings on the left.
She dreamed of her past life again last night, and she woke up at night and couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and read a book for a while. What she experienced was so bizarre that others would only treat it as gibberish, and she could only find the clues in those go-to books. But she didn't find the clue, but the strange stories in the script opened her eyes, and she was fascinated when she looked at it, forgetting the time, and she was confused for a while when it was almost dawn.
Aunt Lin brought breakfast over and set it up on the small table on the couch outside, and when she saw Ji Yunyun dressing up and coming out of the inner room, she beckoned, "The girl is out." ”
"Auntie." Ji Yunyun nodded at her, sat down on the couch, and saw that in addition to the few things she had eaten in the past, there was also a plate of sesame oil mixed with spring bamboo shoots on the small table, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, it was crisp and refreshing, and couldn't help but put a piece in her mouth.
Seeing that she liked it, Aunt Lin said with a smile on the side: "Uncle He went to the mountain early in the morning to dig up this bamboo shoot and sent it over, saying that he was grateful to the girl for saving his girl yesterday." ”
"It's just handy." Ji Yunyun smiled, there is a peach blossom forest behind Zhuangzi, yesterday she took the spring peach and spring branches two girls to enjoy the peach blossoms, but she happened to see a little girl with pigtails who didn't know how to get up the tree, couldn't get down, was holding the tree anxiously wow wow crying, seeing that the little girl was unsteady and was about to fall from the tree, she hurriedly asked Chun Tao and Chun Zhi to save her.
"Girl, I heard that there is a new batch of light clothes in the brocade village in the city, and now I see that the weather is going to get hot, and the girl's figure is longer, and last year's clothes are afraid that they are a little short, so it is better to go to the brocade village to make a few new clothes, and wait for the weather to be hot." Spring Peach Road.
"Let Da Zhuang prepare the car." Hearing Chun Tao's words, Ji Yunyun suddenly remembered something, she ordered, and after breakfast, she took the two girls to get into the carriage and go out to the city.
"What is the girl looking at?" On the carriage, Ji Yunyun picked up the curtain from time to time to look outside, and Chunzhi was curious, so he also looked out of the curtain.
Seeing that she was about to enter the city, there were more pedestrians on the road, her girl's appearance was eye-catching, Mianzhou was not as good as the capital, and there were groups of maids and women protecting her when she went out, worried that someone would see her girl and have a bad heart, Chun Tao persuaded: "Enter the city, there are many people on the street, don't look outside." ”
Ji Yunyun lowered the curtain, leaned against the wall of the car and lowered her eyes to recall, she remembered that she was on the way to the brocade village, and sure enough, after the carriage drove slowly for a while, she heard the sound of beating and scolding and screams of pain outside.
"Stop!" Ji Yunyun hurriedly spoke, opened the curtain and looked outside, and saw several ragged men surrounding a gray-faced man, as if they wanted to snatch his clothes. A few people were so angry that they picked up sticks on the side of the road and surrounded the man.
"Da Zhuang, stop them." Ji Yunyun lowered the curtain and ordered Da Zhuang to catch the car in front.
As his name suggests, the big man is tall and strong, tall and strong, although there are many people on the other side, but this is not far from the city gate, and he relied on the identity of the Ji family, jumped down from the carriage and reprimanded those big men: "What do you want to do in broad daylight?" Get in my girl's way, get out of the way! ”
Those people were just seeking money, and they didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, seeing that there was a magnificent and exquisite carriage next to it, it was expected to be a young lady from a rich and noble family, and a dark-skinned man in the lead glared at the gray-faced man viciously, and spat on the ground, "Count you lucky today!" Then he led the others away.
As soon as the few people left, the man's body shook, and he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.
Da Zhuang looked down at him dissatisfied, "I said that you are a person, my girl kindly saved you, why don't you thank you?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the man suddenly fell to the ground with a "poof".
"Hey......" Da Zhuang was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, and found that the man had fainted for some reason.
Without waiting for him to tell him, Ji Yunyun picked up the curtain and ordered: "Go back to Zhuangzi and take him with you." ”
Da Zhuang hurriedly picked up the man and put him on the horse, then jumped into the carriage, brandished the horsewhip, and turned around and went back to Zhuangzi.
When he arrived in Zhuangzi, Ji Yunyun got down from the carriage with the help of Chun Tao and Chun Zhi, first instructed Da Zhuang to send people to the West Courtyard, and then asked Chun Tao to find Fu Bo to ask for a doctor.
The doctor came to see and said that there was no major problem, but he had been injured by a blunt force on the head, and he was able to wake up in a few hours, and he took a few doses of medicine and left.
Da Zhuang watched in the west courtyard, just after noon, Ji Yunyuan was reading on the soft couch, and Aunt Lin came over to tell her that the person was awake.
"Girl, the man doesn't seem to remember anything, and when he asks his name, he can't tell where his home is." Aunt Lin said with a worried face.
"I'll take a look." Ji Yunyun put down the book and wanted to get up from the couch.
"Girl, no, that's a strange man who doesn't know the details, how can the girl meet him at will, if the girl is worried, let Fu Bo go and ask the doctor to come and see him." Chun Tao hurriedly stopped her.
"What Miss Chun Tao said is that the girl is so beautiful and beautiful, if the man sees it and thinks crookedly, how can it be good? Don't worry, girl, there are me and Da Zhuang and other little maids in the West Courtyard. Aunt Lin also hurriedly said.
That's not a strange man who doesn't know the details, that's the prince of the palace. Ji Yunyun smiled bitterly in her heart, she has not lived in the capital since she was a child, before leaving the capital at the age of thirteen, she had never seen this prince of King An, and in her previous life, she didn't expect that she would save herself from such a golden backer as King An's Mansion.
But she couldn't tell Chun Tao and Aunt Lin about this, so she had to say: "My aunt asked me to go to the Jishi Medical Center to invite Dr. Wu to come over, and then go to buy him two changes of clothes. ”
"What the girl said is that I will go down and command." Aunt Lin saluted and retreated.
Jishi Medical Hall is the most famous medical hall in Mianzhou City, Dr. Wu has superb medical skills, and after coming to see it, he shook his head, saying that the man's head had been hit hard with a blunt object, and he had accumulated bruises, and there was no other way but to wait for the bruises to dissipate, and he would naturally remember it when the time came.
Ji Yunyun left people in Zhuangzi, not only sent two maids from his yard to serve, but also usually ate and wore according to the courtesy of distinguished guests.
Ji Yunyun woke up at three o'clock on this day, and it was dripping with light rain outside the screen window, and Chun Tao and Chun Zhi outside had also gotten up and were talking softly.
"You said that the prince has been living in our Zhuangzi for several days, why haven't you seen his family come to look for him?" Harue asked.
"I'm also curious, Da Zhuang and Fu Bo went to the city to inquire, but I haven't heard that whose son is missing, isn't he from this Mianzhou City?" Spring Peach Road.
"Perhaps, Aunt Lin said that he had nothing on him except for that clothes. The girl said that he was the son of a rich and noble family, and I had paid special attention to it, his clothes were made of cloud brocade, and the embroidery was so good that ordinary rich and noble people could not afford to wear them. I didn't see the face clearly when I rescued him before, and then I secretly took a few glances when I went to the West Courtyard, and the appearance of the boy was extremely handsome, and he looked even better than several young masters in our house, but listening to the Chunyu who served him, his temperament seemed to be a little indifferent, and he didn't like to deal with people. Harueda said.
Chun Tao was a little worried, "You said that if he can't remember it all the time, will he always live in our Zhuangzi?" If it were an ordinary man, it would be a big deal to leave him as a handyman in the Zhuangzi, but his identity seems to be a little unusual, and he is an adult man, and the girl is now older, if the people in the Guogong Mansion know that the girl has taken in a strange man to live in the Zhuangzi, I don't know how to gossip behind my back. ”
