Chapter 5: A Visitor in the Night
Because of Mu Yizhi's return, the dinner atmosphere has been good, Aunt Wang stood behind Mu Yizhi and Qin Yue, and made dishes for them with beautiful movements! Although Yu Hanguo pays attention to etiquette and strictly divides the dignity and inferiority of concubines, she doesn't have to do this job with her eldest son, but she has always insisted on it, but this makes Mu Yizhi and Qin Yue more satisfied with her.
At this time, a little girl accidentally touched Mu Shiling when she was serving, Mu Shiling's hand shook, and the vegetarian balls she had just clamped fell on her skirt, leaving a long oil stain on the tender yellow skirt, which made her how could she stand it, and reflexively slapped her, Xiao Yahuan was already panicked, and fell to the ground at once, and the dishes she was holding were scattered all over the ground: "Dead girl, what are you doing!" Something that doesn't have eyes! ”
The little girl Orange quickly got up and knelt on the ground: "Second Miss forgive, Second Miss forgive, the slave didn't mean it!" ”
Aunt Wang hurriedly walked over and grabbed Mu Shiling to check up and down: "It's okay, why are you so careless, but you were injured!" Grabbing Mu Shiling's hand, she secretly signaled to her, in front of Mu Yizhi, it was not her time to lose her temper, her behavior just now was rude!
Mu Shiling suddenly understood, restrained the anger on her face, and said with grievances: "Auntie, you look at the girl, how can you touch me with a good dish, this is the dress I wore to welcome my father today, this is not to make me ugly!" After speaking, she deliberately stomped her feet, and the delicate little daughter's posture was full of performance!
Hearing this, Mu Yizhi's originally frowning brows loosened a little. Mu Qingya put down the dishes and chopsticks: "Second sister, since you also beat that girl, don't worry about it, let's hurry back to the room and change clothes, and later my sister will ask someone to send the food to your house, but don't be angry because of a girl!" Father will be worried, too! ”
Mu Shiling wanted to refute, but she couldn't stand wearing a soiled dress, so she could only glare at Mu Qingya resentfully and walked out of the flower hall quickly.
"Stand down!"
Hearing Qingya's words, Tangerine hurriedly cleaned up the dishes spilled on the ground, and retreated respectfully, her heart was full of gratitude to her, she knew, don't look at the second lady's innocent appearance, which Yahuan offended her but never had good fruit to eat, her sister Bi Tao was directly beaten and sold to a gambler because she accidentally broke her box of rouge when cleaning, and died in a few days.
Because of Mu Shiling's matter, the atmosphere was a little dull, and after a simple meal, Mu Qingya took Yahuan back to the room.
The sky was completely dark, looking at the lantern reflecting a little light, Mu Qingya's mind turned, looking at Qin Yue's expression, she still didn't know about Mu Yizhi's injury, whether Mu Yizhi would tell her the ins and outs of the matter was still unknown, how could she find out the facts! didn't understand this matter, how could she find a way to help the Mu family get through the difficulties in front of her! Thinking that she had come to the door of the room, as soon as she pushed the door open, her pupils shrank slightly, and she walked into the room without the slightest pause: "I saw that the orchid at the door just now, you moved in for me and put it on the small table over there, so you don't need to wait here!" ”
"Yes!" The maids bowed and saluted, moving the orchids in neatly, curious, the third lady has always hated flowers and plants, why did she suddenly remember to enjoy the orchid? However, what the master wants to do is not something that their subordinates can control, and after cleaning up, they hurriedly exited the room!
There is a chessboard on the small table by the window, and the black and white chess pieces are quietly placed in the box, and now there is an orchid next to it, which adds a bit of elegance. Qingya sat over, picked up a few sunspots and played, the stone chess pieces collided with each other and made a crisp sound, she placed the chess pieces on the chessboard at will, and the sound of the chess pieces falling on the chessboard in the silent night was particularly loud.
"I'm the only one left in the room, why don't you come out quickly because of the villain hiding in the dark?" Mu Qingya's voice fell, and the room was silent. She was not in a hurry and continued to play with the chess pieces.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, a deep voice rang out:
"Is Miss really calm?"
Mu Qingya hooked the corners of her mouth: "You, the person who visited other people's residences at night, were found so calm, what is there to panic about Miss Ben!" As he spoke, he landed another piece on the chessboard.
"Hehe, I originally thought that all the women in Jiangnan were as gentle as water, but I didn't expect to see a cold one as cold as ice today!" With a deep voice, a man in a navy blue shirt walked out!
Mu Qingya frowned, this person dared to swagger out, and hurriedly changed the candle flame!
"Oh, it's really rude, it's not as thoughtful as Miss Mu! I don't know how Miss Mu found me in the room? ”
Originally, the candle flame was placed on the left side of the bed, and the shadow was projected on the window after the man came out, if people saw it, I am afraid that tomorrow the news that there is a wild man hidden in the boudoir of the third lady of the Mu family will spread throughout Linjiang City!
Duanmu Lingyu looked at the woman who was unusually quiet holding a chess piece under the light, her eyebrows were a little more slender than ordinary Jiangnan women, and her eyes without any waves seemed to be clear and waveless, but they were actually dark and deep, even he could hardly see any emotions from those eyes! This had to surprise him! Is this really the eyes that a boudoir woman should have? Those eyes seem to be able to see through your appearance and see straight into your heart! He has seen many women from queens and princesses to women in the market, and no one has ever given him such a feeling!
Mu Qingya let the comer look at her, and the light smile on the corner of her mouth never changed. In fact, from the moment she opened the door, she knew that there must be someone in the room, and she was extremely sensitive to the feeling of being snooped! I'm afraid this is the unique ability of a woman who crawls in the deep palace!
"How do I find out if you matter? Since you dare to explore the residence of the relatives of the Sanpin Masters at night, you should be prepared not to go back, it doesn't matter if you know it or not! ”
"Huh!" Duanmu Lingyu chuckled, ready not to go back? It was the first time anyone had dared to speak to him like that, and it was a twelve-year-old woman who looked soft and weak! It seems that this trip is really worth it, "I don't know if Miss Mu still likes to talk wildly?" ”
Mu Qingya's eyelashes trembled, and she put down the chess pieces casually, and then slowly raised her head to look at the person in front of her, he was masked with a black scarf, full of heaven, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, with a hint of charming arc, and the straight bridge of his nose was faintly visible under the black scarf, although he could not get a glimpse of the whole picture, but only by the characteristics of the eyes, it could also be judged that he must be a beautiful man.
Looking at the eyes overflowing with cold stars, Mu Qingya hooked her lips and smiled: "Didn't you find something?" ”
Duanmu Lingyu was slightly stunned, those eyes were full of smiles, and the appearance of looking forward to life was really amazing, but what did you find? He's ...... anything Wrong! A burst of dizziness came from his brain, making his eyes change, and his sharp eyes were like sharp swords shooting straight at Mu Qingya: "What did you do?" ”
"What was done? Didn't I do anything? It's just for the sake of your innocence and to do some protection, why are you so alarmed? ”
"Hmph," Duanmu Lingyu's eyes were dark, and he took two steps forward and grabbed Mu Qingya's neck, "For your innocence?" Hehe, what can you do now for your life? As he spoke, his fingers tightened slowly, and he watched as the beautiful face flushed slightly under his hands. The smile on the corner of Mu Qingya's mouth remained unchanged, as if the person who was choked was not herself.
Duanmu Lingyu was amazed in his heart, he didn't expect that just a woman who was not as good as Lu would have such courage! The thought of not killing her suddenly rose in his heart, and he wanted to see how far she would grow if he gave this woman time! It's just that before he let go, he felt a pain in his arm, and suddenly came back to his senses, only to find that there was a white hosta inserted in his forearm!
"What a ruthless little girl, she dares to do this to me!" Duanmu Lingyu laughed, he didn't expect to be scratched by a cat's paw today, "Little girl, you have to live well, I'll go first......" After speaking, he opened the window and disappeared in a few clicks!
"Ahem......" Mu Qingya coughed out at this time, her throat tingled, and she sat on the chair weakly and gasped for breath, just now she clearly saw the killing intent in the man's eyes, but she didn't expect him to change his mind later!
Gently touched the orchid on the table, a few of the orchid leaves had been blackened by the candle flame, and it was exuding a faint fragrance. This is also what she inadvertently knows, Hanlan will emit a faint fragrance when it is roasted by the fire, this fragrance can make people in a trance for a short period of time, and their limbs are weak. She has always liked orchids, and when she went out in the evening, she found a few pots of cold orchids at the door, and thought about moving them back to her room at night to take care of them, but she didn't expect these pots of orchids to help her a lot! After discovering that there were people in the room, she thought of this method, but she was a little uneasy in her heart, the strength of the person who was able to hide in her room by avoiding the guards and subordinates was definitely not low, I don't know if Hanlan could play a role, fortunately, that person did not have the heart to kill her!
It seems that Mu Yizhi really knew something amazing when she went out this time, she was chased to the house, she had to find a way to find out, so as not to be caught off guard by things!
In an inconspicuous compound in Linjiang City, Wei Xi looked strange and helped his master bandage his wounds, if he was not mistaken, what the master was holding was a girl's white hosta! Didn't the master go to Mu's house to get evidence? How could it be that a white hosta, could it be that the master broke into the boudoir of other girls? I heard that the Mu family has two concubines who are famous, or rare twins, could it be that the master is tempted? Curious like a cat scratching, he asked carefully, "Master, why are you injured?" Who was so bold that he hurt his master? ”
Duanmu Lingyu glanced at him and continued to play with the white hosta in his hand. Just when Wei Xi thought he wouldn't answer, he heard him chuckle twice:
"Hurt? It's not like a cat with sharp claws scratching it......"
Wei Xi: ......
