Chapter 5 Sharing a Bed
It was night, and Qiu Yulan was awakened by a strange noise not far away.
She kept her breathing even, and quietly opened her eyes to look, only to feel her heart shrink suddenly!
When I calmed down, I saw that it was a cat squatting on the edge of my feet.
It pressed part of the brocade curtain, and a pair of round mandarin duck eyes glowed in the dark night. At first glance, it looks like a ghost, and it really scares people to death!
"Was it deliberately put in, or did it come by accident?" Qiu Yulan thought in her heart, "Mother Fan and Xiuyan have been close to my bed before, did you do anything?" β
The cat was on high alert and pounced on it to scratch itself, but he didn't want to hear a deliberately light footsteps outside the scene!
Qiu Yulan's heart was awe-inspiring, and he hurriedly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
A moment later, with the faint scent of Ruilin, a figure flashed into the curtain, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and whispered, "I can be regarded as finding you!" β
The cat meowed lazily, seemingly reluctantly.
"If you run around, I will be scolded by my cousin!" The man reprimanded, leaned down and picked up the cat, "When you go back, you will be punished for not having lamb liver for supper!" β
Qiu Yulan heard that it was a girl's voice, she should be about the same age as she is now, and she was very unfamiliar, not like the person in the palace in her memory, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Result β
The girl picked up the cat, but did not leave immediately, but chuckled: "Alas, there is a smell of medicine, is this the one who was beaten during the day, when I was lying on the wall and listening to the boiling sky for a long time?" As he spoke, he tiptoed towards the bed.
"......" Qiu Yulan was speechless.
"It's a little beauty, tsk, it's so miserable, my face is swollen!" The girl didn't know that she was awake, so she stood by the bed with great interest, looking at her through the hazy gauze lamp used at night, and regretted again and again, "I don't know what I did, this Qiu family really doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade!" β
As she said, she reached out from time to time and touched a few handfuls on Qiu Yulan's face.
Either way, it's none of your business, so let's go......
Qiu Yulan's heart was in a mess, she probably guessed that this girl might be the person next door, even if it wasn't the Jiang family, it should be the next-door neighbor on the other side...... It is estimated that he is very favored in front of the elders, so much so that the third watch turns in the middle of the night. Don't say anything about looking for cats on the wall, and sneak into people's boudoirs without a weak heart!
Fortunately, after the girl muttered for a while, a cough suddenly came from outside the window!
Then a teenager asked in a gentle tone: "Cousin, are you in there?" Come out! β
"Damn it!" The girl seemed to freeze suddenly, and scolded in a low voice, "Nian Xue, you hurt me!" β
Call...... can be regarded as her family is still responsible, and she came to find someone.
Qiu Yulan was just about to relax, and she didn't want that girl to do something that she couldn't even think of to kill!
β¦β¦ She picked up the cat named Nian Xue, threw it on the bed, and said loudly as she threw it: "Don't go out!" β
Qiu Yulan's whole person froze!
It's not just the fear of a cat scratching yourself at hand, the key is! The girl who killed that day actually threw the cat and quickly clicked on her acupoint at the same time!
Then, the girl slipped out of the curtain from the other side...... Run!
Sure enough, the next moment, the window lattice sounded softly, and the gentle voice came in as she spoke: "Don't mess around!" This is someone's boudoir! Come back with me! β
The young man didn't know what was happening in the brocade, and Qiu Yulan was dumb and couldn't remind him. So he ...... The sound of throwing the cat on the bed as a matter of course is that my cousin climbed into someone's bed!
So naturally, he lifted the tulle tent beside the bed and pulled his naughty cousin outβandβand he was all messed up in the wind!
But this young man was obviously not very human, and he calmed down in an instant, saluted Qiu Yulan, who was glaring at him, and whispered: "I'm sorry - I didn't mean to offend!" β
It is estimated that he is the owner of the cat, and without the effort of shouting and making amends, the cat itself paced gracefully to him and jumped into his arms quickly!
"Today's Meng Lang, I will definitely make amends to Miss when I turn around!" Qiu Yulan was bare-shouldered at the moment, although it was covered with medicine, but it was not suitable for the man to see after all, the young man lowered his head and said this, holding the cat and wanting to leave first...... It's just that at this time, Zhou's mother's voice came from outside: "Su He, go to the yard to see, is anyone coming in?" I'm going to see the county lord! β
The young man's face changed, and he was about to rush towards the window, but he heard Su He say "hey" outside the window: "Grandmother, I'm afraid of the dark...... After you finished reading the county lord's place, come out and watch the yard with me, right? β
"Then you wait!" After Mother Zhou said this, she pushed open the door of the inner room!
Qiu Yulan sighed deeply in his heart......
Mother Zhou entered the door, took the thick gauze cover on the lamp used for the night, walked in with the lamp, and called softly: "County Lord? β
"Mom, it's okay, go to sleep." What reassured her was that the sound of Qiu Yulan soon came from the tent.
Zhou's mother took a picture outside again, but there was no abnormality, so she buckled back the gauze cover and advised: "I just seem to hear someone talking loudly, what is the matter you call us." β
"Hmm." When Zhou's mother went out and called Su He to the yard to take a look, Qiu Yulan said in a low voice: "You can get out of my bed now. Go up, right? β
The young man got up from her side in a state of confusion, and was about to apologize, when there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and the boy fell asleep again!
Both of them were in a mess...... saw Zhou's mother rushing in three steps and two steps, and said in a panic: "County Lord, the courtyard wall outside has been climbed over!" β
ββ¦β¦ I think someone snooped on it two days ago. β
"No, the old slave went to see the courtyard wall in the evening, and there was no trace! Someone must have just entered our yard! What can I do? Mother Zhou was a little dispossessed, "Just now, Mother Fan and Xiuyan both came to the county to pay the dowry of the concubine and the princess - are they finished, let's ...... What should I do?! β
Without waiting for Qiu Yulan to speak to appease her, Mother Zhou clapped her hands and gritted her teeth, "The princess is just your little blood, and they still kill them like this...... Although the old slave has no ability to protect you, he can't live alone! At that moment, he shouted at Su He, "Go and get our bed!" We're guarding the county lord in this house tonight! β
When Qiu Yulan heard this, she almost didn't come up in one breath! The teenager next to her was also breathless......
Both of them had a thought in their hearts: "Tomorrow morning, Mother Zhou and Su He will come in to serve and freshen up, and see us lying like this, how can we explain?!" β
