Chapter 36 Together
Early in the morning five days later, before Lie Yun got up and had time to wash, he heard Cui Wanning's voice outside, "Cousin, is it up?" ”
Cuizhu, who was serving in the house, had a tacit look, and heard Hongmei reply, "The county lord has just risen", and the thick tent hanging on the door has been lifted to attract Cui Wanning in, "County lord, the girl is here." “
Lie Yun walked over and took Cui Wanning's hand to the table and sat down, "Why did my cousin come to the Purple Courtyard so early today?" Ready for breakfast? ”
"Oh, cousin, I heard the maid in my yard say last night that my cousin has a skillful maid in this yard who can actually make five blessings and concentric dreadlocks, is it true?" Cui Wanning didn't answer Lie Yun's words, but anxiously asked about what she had been holding all night.
Lie Yun smiled, "It turns out that my cousin came early in the morning for this, hey, it's a second-class little maid in my courtyard, and the time spent in my courtyard is not short, and the honest duty has never attracted attention, or Mo Ju accidentally passed by the inverted room at the back yesterday, and saw the little maid sitting at the door of the house playing a kind of dreadlocks that she had never seen before. Only then did I know that the lock was called Wufu Tongxin, and the little maid had never learned from anyone and never seen it, but she had heard someone say that this lock was figured out by herself. Mo Ju also showed me the locks, which were really good-looking. The maids in the courtyard knew, and they all looked at Mo Ju. I didn't expect that just this little thing would reach you. “
Cui Wanning listened, looked at Lie Yun and stomped his feet, "Cousin, what is it called this little thing, do you know that no one can fight this Wufu Tongxin for many years, and now the world only knows the name of Wufu Tongxin, but it is difficult to see its true face at all." If it weren't for the fact that last night when I knew that all the courtyards had already been locked and resting, I wouldn't have come to you until now. Where is the little girl, call me and let me see. “
Lie Yun sighed helplessly, "Of course it's no problem to call that little maid over, even if she stays in your courtyard for a few days, but you have to wait for me to wash your face, your cousin and I are sloppy in front of you, you can't let me throw my face in front of those little maids." “
Cui Wanning heard Lieyun say that she could lend the little maid to herself for a few days, and she was happy, so she sat anxiously and waited for Lieyun to wash and change clothes, and called Begonia and Hongmei, who followed her, to go to the big kitchen to bring the breakfast from the Fragrance Courtyard to the Purple Courtyard and use it with Lieyun.
Cui Wanning saw the little maid in a hurry, and put down the chopsticks after a few bites and watched Lieyun eat, Lieyun really couldn't bear the little girl's warm eyes, so she had to drink a few mouthfuls of porridge to let Hongmei withdraw from the table, and asked Cuizhu to call the little maid to come over with the beaten Wufu concentric silk to Cui Wanning.
Seeing the real person, Cui Wanning looked at it a few times, then turned to Lie Yun and said, "Cousin, it's no wonder that such a skillful hand has been found in your courtyard for so long, it really looks too ordinary." After speaking, he lowered his head and looked at the handbook in his hand carefully, but he didn't notice that after hearing this sentence, this little girl who looked too ordinary suddenly darkened her face, Mo Ju and Cuizhu had a smile on their faces, and Lie Yun grinned slightly.
Playing with the locks in her hand, Cui Wanning couldn't put it down, remembering Lieyun's words, she asked Lieyun what the name of the little maid was, knew that it was called Xiangling, and asked if she could take Xiangling back to Fenfang Courtyard today, and asked her to teach herself to play the five blessings and concentric locks.
Lie Yun naturally didn't disagree, and only said jokingly, "This Xiangling has such a talent, I just found out, and this was borrowed by you, cousin, shouldn't my cousin treat me to a signature dish of Drunken Immortal Residence to show my gratitude?" “
Although Cui Wanning was reprimanded by Cui Jing last time because of the matter of Qinglian ointment, saying that she was not good at learning the things of the boudoir that her daughter's family should learn, and she was not good at practicing women's virtue and speech, she really wronged Cui Wanning, in fact, Cui Wanning not only liked these female workers but also had her own experience. This time I got a benefit from Lie Yun, and listened to Lie Yun's request, even though Lie Yun bluntly said that what he just said was a joke, it should not be true, not to mention that it was natural for my sister to spoil my sister, Cui Wanning still patted her chest and made a covenant with Lie Yun to live in the Drunken Immortal Residence at noon tomorrow. And why not today? The little girl couldn't wait to go back and learn from Xiangling how to beat the five blessings of the same heart.
I don't know how Cui Wanning told Cheng Jinsi, but the next day, just at the right time, the little girl asked Yang Zhi to come over to greet Lieyun, she had already packed up, prepared a carriage and waited for Lieyun at the second gate, and specially asked Yang Zhi to tell Lieyun that she had brought Xiangling with her today.
Lieyun was ready, so he took Cuizhu Hongmei and Xiangling together, and went to the second gate to meet Cui Wanning, the two sisters sat in the same carriage, and the four maids sat in the same car, and went out of Cui's Mansion to the Drunken Immortal Residence.
In the car, Cui Wanning chattered about yesterday's conversation with Xiangling, and said that the five blessings of the same heart are too difficult to beat, Xiangling people are not good-looking, how can their hands be so clever, Lieyun just smiled and listened, and occasionally echoed a sentence.
When they arrived at the Drunken Immortal Residence, it was naturally Cailan and Lao Niu who received everyone, and at this time, Cui Wanning didn't care about the dignity of the master and servant, and let Xiangling sit beside her, and talked to Xiangling about the way to play the locks while eating. During the banquet, Lieyun said that he was going to change clothes, but Cui Wanning only raised her head and said "um", not noticing that it took Lieyun a quarter of an hour to come back.
After eating, the two sisters and the four maids rested for a while, because Cui Wanning was still in a hurry to go home and continue to study the locks, so everyone didn't go anywhere else, so they got into the carriage and went home.
And just half an hour after Lieyun and Cui Wanning left the Drunken Immortal Residence, two women escorted a girl wearing a hood, got into an ordinary carriage that had been waiting at the side gate of the Drunken Immortal Residence, and was driven by a sturdy young man, left the Drunken Immortal Residence, and went to the city gate along Zhengyang Street.
The carriage galloped all the way out of the city, and stopped at the Pavilion ten miles away from the city gate, only to see two horses tied next to the big tree outside the pavilion, and there were two teenagers sitting in the pavilion. The young man driving the carriage lifted the curtain of the carriage, and the two women helped the hooded girl out of the car.
I saw the girl walk in front of Xiao Yu, stretched out her hand and took off the hat on her head, it was Lieyun.
