Chapter 7: The Black Cat
When I woke up at the beginning of the month, I still didn't see Beige, I peeled off the gauze tent and got out of bed, slowly walked to the window, pushed open the window, the sun was shining outside, and the tender green buds and leaves added a bit of playfulness to this spring day.
called out to the begonia lightly and began to freshen up.
"When did the prince leave?" Gently take the earrings, ask casually, a pair of jade earrings lined with the moon is extraordinarily white, dressed in plain white clothes, pulled a small bun, and the rest of the hair is sprinkled on the shoulders, but it is a little more than a feeling of not eating fireworks in the world.
"The prince left just after dawn, and told the slave not to disturb you and let you sleep a little longer." Begonia replied while helping Moon comb her hair. "By the way, Miss, before the prince left, he also said that there were too few people waiting in the yard, and a new batch of maids and servants were dialed over, which were served by the prince in the past, and after breakfast, Steward Chu should bring it over." Haitang was happy, knowing that the prince treated Miss well, even if the two have no contact now, they can always cultivate some feelings when they come and go.
In fact, there are a lot of maids in the yard, but when he entered the yard yesterday, Beige accidentally heard the words of the two maids made him inexplicably upset, he never thought that his words and deeds would be so speculated by his subordinates, he thought that he treated the beginning of the month with great courtesy, but he was not in the eyes of the subordinates, and the beginning of the month was the third party who was disliked and ruined by others. So he replaced the people who used to stay in the East Courtyard to serve with his former henchmen, with them, first, I am not afraid of what they say to make the beginning of the month sad, and second, I can also protect one or two by my side.
didn't answer Begonia's words, suddenly remembered something, a glimmer of crystal flashed in his eyes, smiled and turned around and said: "You see there are two big willow trees in the garden, you go find a thicker rope, let's hang a swing under the tree."
Haitang hesitated and spoke: "No, Miss, this is the palace, you are the princess, if the prince knows......"
"No, you see that the prince doesn't always come, and he won't care about these when he comes" Interrupting Begonia at the beginning of the month, seeing that Begonia didn't say anything, he added: "Look at the big courtyard of the city, there are just a few of us, and the two of you can talk, it's weird and boring." Begonia grew up with her, although she is a master and servant, in fact, the sisters are more affectionate, so when she saw the "pitiful" look at the beginning of the month, although she knew that she was pretending, she finally agreed to be soft-hearted.
Although Begonia didn't agree with the idea of the beginning of the month, but since the young lady liked it, she could only do what she was told, and the new few little maids were quick with their hands and feet, compared to the previous casual maids who were more obedient, and after a while, they hung a swing under the willow tree, and the wooden board was tied with goose down cushions, and the rope was also wrapped with strips of cloth, which was very careful.
So at the beginning of the month after lunch, I came to the swing with joy, the height is moderate, gently and leisurely, the spring breeze is blowing, and the comfortable wind is mixed with a bit of earthy fragrance. The small pond in front of me is shimmering. Dismissed the others, leaving only Begonia to serve by his side, Xu ate a little too much at noon, Xu didn't sleep well last night, and the spring was flickering, and he was a little sleepy. Sitting on the swing drowsy, a lazy cat meow sounded in the ear, and then I felt that there was something more on the leg, the scream of the begonia also sounded in the ear, the sleepiness was no more, I opened my eyes and saw a black ball on the leg, a whole body of inky kitten is lying on my lap at the moment, the tip of the tail with a little white, the two eyes are as dark as sapphire, it is very good-looking. The visitor was very calm, lying on his lap and squinting his eyes, the beginning of the month reached out to touch it, the kitten meowed softly, rubbed and continued to lie on his stomach, and had the posture of sleeping a lot. Begonia wanted to reach out and take the cat away, the beginning of the month reached out and waved to signal that she didn't have to move, the kitten on the leg breathed evenly gradually, sometimes dancing under the little paws, very cute, looking at it, the beginning of the month gradually fell asleep.
