Chapter 30: Night Pet (3)
The night is already very deep. In the thick ink-like sky, only a little moonlight shone on the "rustling" leaves. The mottled shadows hit the window, and in the dim candlelight, there were overlapping figures, and suddenly, a cold wind blew the silver-red curtains. Su Xin was stunned, and listened to the cry of Huizhu with a mournful voice coming from the house......
Xiao Luzi, who was also outside the house, knew that Su Xin beside him was a little stunned, and sighed slightly in his heart, how could he not understand after following the master for so long. Originally, he had come to tell him that the hot water was ready, but when he heard the sound of the house, he waited outside.
Su Xin seemed to be a little lost, with eagerness, he stepped into the house, Xiao Luzi grabbed Su Xin's arm fiercely, and said in a low voice: "Why are you so blind, you are still a married person." After that, he dragged Su Xin out a few steps with all his might, and lowered his voice and said: "I know that Gege is a kind master, don't worry about your master, this is a great thing, maybe in the future, your master will give birth to a little brother for his master, and become a side blessing." Wait a little longer, look at the hour, it's time for you to go to the bath. "I also pity this heart-based plain heart, having said that, I have been with the master for a long time, and I have seen more in the house, it is not difficult to have a body, but it is not easy to be born safely, and Niu Hulu is a young and humble ......
The words made Su Xin calm down, and he bent down to give Xiao Luzi a salute. quietly exited the main house and came to the West Chamber. Then he told Mama Zhang to prepare some hot water for Huizhu to cleanse herself, and asked Xia Mei to boil some simple hot soup, and then came back and continued to wait outside with Xiao Luzi.
Yin Zhen lay on Huizhu's body, and the rapid gasp gradually sank. After half a sound, Yin Zhen got up, looked at Huizhu who was lying on the kang, and called in a somewhat hoarse voice behind him after a burst of clothed stumbling: "Xiao Luzi." Xiao Luzi replied: "The slave is here...... Sir, hot water is ready. Then, a few footsteps gradually approached, a cool breeze seemed to blow, Huizhu hurriedly pulled the long cheongsam on her body, and saw Xiao Luzi and Su Xin enter the back room.
Xiao Luzi and Su Xin saluted Yinzhen, and Xiao Luzi bowed down again and asked, "Master, are you going to take a bath now?" Yin Zhen casually buckled his gown and said an almost inaudible "grace". Xiao Luzi glanced at Huizhu, who was still lying on the kang, and whispered, "Master, do you want to continue to let Niu Hulu Gege serve?" Still is? Yinzhen, who was raising her feet and preparing to go out, paused, and said lightly: "No need, find someone to wash her." After speaking, he took Xiao Luzi out of the room.
At this time, Huizhu was still lying on the kang, looking at the eaves in a daze. And so it ended, and he walked away like this, without even looking at himself, and threw himself down under the gaze of the others. Why, why did I have to suffer such insults and grievances, why did I let myself come to the Qing Dynasty, why did I ......
As soon as Yinzhen's master and servant left, Su Xin hugged Huizhu in her arms and cried: "Master, just cry out, just cry out." This is fate, that's how we are women, not to mention that you are still the woman of the four princes today. Master, don't scare the slave and maid, you speak. Master, you have to come over after the master takes a bath, you must not do this. If you have any grievances, cry out now! Huizhu seemed to be awakened by Su Xin, hugged Su Xin to death, buried her head tightly in Su Xin's arms, and cried: "I'm unwilling, I'm unwilling, I'm going home, I'm going home, I'm going home, I'm going home." Su Xin thought that Huizhu wanted to go back to Niu Hulu Mansion, and when she saw her crying, she was also slightly relieved, so she gently stroked Huizhu's back and said softly: "Okay, master, everything is over, and when the New Year is over, I will ask for blessings and let you go home." ”
After another sound of footsteps, Mama Zhang and Yuehe walked in with two large basins of water. As soon as Yuehe saw the situation in the house, she was frightened and silent, but Mama Zhang calmed down, and asked, "The hot water is here, the master should clean his body." Su Xin turned her head, stared at Mama Zhang and Yuehe with sharp eyes, and said coldly: "You didn't see anything, it's just that the master is tired now, so he fell on me." Okay, Mama Zhang went down first to see if Xia Mei's soup was boiled. Yuehe, you stay and serve the master. Then, Su Xin unwrapped the cheongsam wrapped around Huizhu, and gently scrubbed her body with hot water with Yuehe. No one in the room spoke, and even Yuehe silently waited for Huizhu. After a while, Huizhu cleaned up, changed into a set of moon-white printed cheongsam, untied her hair bun, and leaned on the kang, looking fine.
At this time, Xia Mei also walked in with a food box. Su Xin took the food box and put it on the kang table, and said softly: "Master, the slave asked Xia Mei to make you some food, and you can taste it too." After speaking, he opened the food box, and there were three things in the box: the same is Jianlian red date soup, the same is lotus root flour cinnamon sugar cake, and the same is an inch big dumpling.
Huizhu felt the aroma of the food, looked at Su Xin, then looked at the food on the kang table, and finally looked at everyone in the room, and said softly, "Thank you." Su Xin saw that Huizhu was angry, so she hurriedly sent Yuehe Xia Mei, filled a bowl of Jianlian red date soup and handed it to Huizhu, and said, "Master, drink some while it's hot to warm your stomach." ”
Huizhu drank some soup and felt that the grievances at the beginning were slowly disappearing. She is a bit of a drifter, with a simple heart, anger comes and goes quickly, and in her previous life, she seems to be often laughed at as a grassroots heart. In my previous life, it was too far away, and I didn't remember it for a long time. The current self seems to be real, during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, the daughter of Ling Zhu and Zhang Jia, the Gege of the four Belle Yinzhen. Huizhu shook her head, what's the matter, there are so many people who care about themselves, there are so many family members who love them, and there are even more people who are more miserable than themselves. I now have no worries about food and clothing. The only unhappiness is the hurt and grievance of self-esteem that I feel from Yinzhen today? People should cherish their blessings, and those who are content will always be happy, isn't this what I have always thought. Thinking of this, Huizhu raised her head and looked at Su Xin and smiled: "Sister Su Xin, it's good to have you." Su Xin saw Huizhu smiling, and couldn't help but say, "Master, everything will be fine in the future." ”
Between the words and laughter of the two masters and servants, Yinzhen returned to the inner room with his wet hair, and his appearance was like a sharp sword cutting through the peace and tranquility in the house, and Huizhu couldn't help but be stunned.
After bathing, Yinzhen felt comfortable all over her body, and returned to the main house with the cool air outside. Xiao Luzi separated the curtain of the inner room, and Yinzhen felt a faint fragrance wafting in the room, and looked at it, Huizhu had changed her clothes at this time, eating supper and laughing with a maidservant. It was surprising that the woman who had been in tears just now was smiling so gently. However, it seems that she was really scared just now, when she saw herself, she froze with laughter, and her body was still trembling, and women were probably afraid of themselves.
After being stunned for a moment, Huizhu hurriedly got up from the kang and smiled and wanted to salute Yinzhen. I am really sad, but I have to smile at a person who has just committed violence to me.
Yin Zhen said: "Get up." With that, he walked to the kang and sat down, and ordered: "Go and prepare a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and you all go down, just have Niu Hulu to serve." ”
At this time, the room was quiet, and Yinzhen sat on the kang. After Huizhu first put the tray left by Xiao Luzi on the kang, she also took off her shoes and got on the kang, knelt behind Yinzhen, and picked up a cotton towel from the tray to gently wrap his wet long hair and wipe it little by little.
Yinzhen wiped her hair by Huizhu, reached out to pick up chopsticks, picked out a small dumpling and tasted it, and said, "It tastes good." Then he ate a little with his chopsticks, then put down his chopsticks and said, "This soup seems to be made for you." The servants who serve you are attentive. After speaking, without waiting for Huizhu to answer, he moved his body and prepared to lie on the kang.
Huizhu understood, hurriedly moved the tray outward, picked up the pillow and put it on Yinzhen's neck, took off the slightly wet cotton towel on his head, took a piece of dry and wrapped it in his hair, picked up the small incense burner on the plate, and dried Yinzhen's hair through the newly wrapped cotton towel. Yin Zhen closed his eyes and enjoyed Huizhu's service, as if he was very satisfied with this, and the hard edges and corners of his face relaxed.
Huizhu looked at herself, the man she was going to serve for a lifetime, and said secretly in her heart: You are just an episode of my life, and the occasional collision is just a wind passing without a trace...... You and I are strangers.
Such a situation, soft candlelight, fragrant fragrance in the room, such a close two, but the hearts are far away......
(The next few chapters will be a little more bland, without these minor twists and turns.) Thank you for your support ^_^)
