Chapter 423: The first confrontation between rivals in love
He Angelica's gaze wandered on Yitong's face, and he asked slowly, "Huh? Did you dirty my clothes? ”
When I looked down, I saw that there was a lot of wet mud on the hem of my skirt, and it was my hands that were also covered with mud. But except for a pair of hands, he doesn't have half a piece of mud on his body, which is really a strange thing, is it that Tu Dun only soils one hand? This hidden native grandson showed his ability, scurrying around like a vole under his own garden, and just happened to come out of front of her, and by the way, he made a mud on her skirt?
She lowered her eyes and looked at Yitong's slightly cramped face, and said with a smile: "I miss Meng Xuan very much, I want to see him immediately, wait for me to take a look at him, and then change my skirt after I have calmed down, it's the same." ”
Saying this, she bypassed Yitong, who was still lying on the ground and saluted her, and moved lightly in the lotus step, walking in the direction of the vast garden, and the drunkard did not look around the wine ground, pretending to enjoy the scenery. Yitong on the ground jumped up, chased after her and said with a smile: "Grandma stays, grandpa is sleeping heavily at this time, there is nothing uneasy, it is better to let him sleep a little longer, wait for you to take a bath and change clothes, comb your hair, eat and eat, and taste tea...... Uh, drink, do it all over again, and then go to see you, you will be greeted with good spirits and full of energy. ”
Yitong's stammering tone made He Angelica even more sure that he was hiding something from her. What is there to hide? Looking at his posture, it is clear that he is here with some mission, and the purpose is likely to drag her and prevent her from going to see Meng Xuan. Since this is the case, then she will also fulfill his wish, "grandma" has called a lot, obviously she can't afford such a "grandma".
"That's fine, I've been tired of the journey anyway," she asked with a smile, "Is there a guest room here, I want to take a break, like your grandfather, and sleep for ten days and eight days." ”
Yitong's face was happy, and he also smiled: "How can you let grandma live in the guest room, your house has already been prepared, I don't think your complexion is very good...... Yikes! Your face is hurting! He whispered in surprise, as if he hadn't had long eyes before, and now he had just opened his eyelids and saw it, and said worriedly, "This injury, you must soak in the hot springs, soak for seven hundred and forty-nine hours...... He realized that he had reported too much, and hurriedly changed his words, "It takes seven hours to soak to soften the skin of the scar, and then the medicine can work." Grandma, please rest assured to use the hot springs, we don't have a superfluous person here, the woman is the master, the male master, is our master. ”
He Angelica was a little strange when he heard this, and asked provocatively: "Isn't the third prince the master here?" They disembarked earlier, haven't they arrived yet? ”
Yitong said secretly, it is really the busier and more chaotic, the more chaotic and wrong, but he has another difficult person to serve, alas, who will change with him? I was about to persuade her to go to bed and bathe as soon as possible, and it was best to rest her for a day, two or three days, but a sweet and crisp laughter like a water chestnut sounded not far away: "Hahaha, this sister must be Miss He, right?" Yitong, you go and do your job, I'll greet her. The source of the laughter came over and said warmly, "Oh, look at this dress, it's like rolling in the mud, but you need to bathe and incense carefully." Miss He, you don't know, the wet mud under this ground is much dirtier than the ones visible on the surface. ”
He Angelica looked over as soon as the laughter came, and saw a young woman walking over, perhaps less than twenty years old, but dressed a little more maturely, a bit of a married woman's style.
Her eyes took turns looking at He Angelica and Yitong, and smiled, He Angelica politely smiled back, and looked at this woman carefully, but saw that she was wearing a dark pink semi-draped skirt with purple and red piping, embroidered with Yingluo patterns, elegant and chic, and wearing a silver-white pleated inner skirt inside, which set off her skin. In particular, she was born with a thin waist and long legs, charming and smart, wearing this kind of bright clothes that are a bit similar to dance skirts, walking as if she was stepping on the rhythm of dance steps, with a bewitching appearance, and she was full of charm.
He Angelica had never heard that Meng Xuan had such a beautiful lady by his side, so he glanced at Yitong and hoped that he would introduce a few words, but he lowered his head, and beads of sweat were about to break out on his forehead. He Angelica raised his eyebrows, turned his head and continued to look at the woman again, the phoenix bun showed her sideburns, lightly swept her eyebrows and eyes with spring, her eyes were so clear that she seemed to have a sense of water, her skin was as delicate as warm jade, her luster was delicate, her red mouth was red, her peach cheeks were smudged, and the two strands of hair on her cheeks were gently brushed with the wind, adding a little tempting style.
There is still room for improvement in the taste of clothes, He Angelica made a comment like this, but with her, it is charming but not vulgar, and her face does not look like an ordinary maid or servant woman, could it be that which of Meng Xuan's concubines was brought to Yangzhou together? Even so, Yitong doesn t need this look, just introduce it well, and he doesn't eat people, why are you nervous like this, He Angelica thought sourly.
Is the wet mud under the ground much dirtier than the ones visible on the surface? It sounded like there was something in the words, He Angelica smiled and said: "Then this sister will take me to change my clothes, Yitong, you go back to serve your master, don't worry about me." When I'm out of breath, I'll see him tomorrow. ”
Yitong subconsciously wiped his sweat, and suddenly the whole person fell into the soil when he answered, and he was stunned when he saw it, and the earth escape can also be used as a daily substitute, which is really convenient, and it is necessary to rob the house.
The woman who walked in reversed the attitude of the master who greeted the guests just now, and smiled humbly: "The slave doesn't dare to be Miss He, you are a 'sister', you are the master if you don't marry, and you are still the master if you marry." I, people seem to be married or not married, half master and half servant, in the final analysis, I am still a servant, in terms of seniority, I should call you 'sister'. Sister, you call me Bo'er, they all call me that. Sister, come with me, and I'll take you to the shower and change your clothes. ”
He Angelica listened to the meaning of what she said, coupled with Yitong's attitude, Bacheng was really which concubine of Meng Xuan, his heart was a little cold, but the smile on his face was three points, he walked half a step behind her, and began to talk: "Listen to your accent, like the Fengyang people, is it the habit of coming to Yangzhou to live?" Is diet still good for appetite? ”
Bo'er smiled: "I don't have anything I am not used to, Fengyang cuisine and Yangzhou cuisine are not all dishes for people to eat, and there is fish and meat to pick anything." It's just that the three masters and the seventh masters, eating a meal is not an ordinary pick, I have worked so hard that I am about to stop picking. ”
Meng Xuan: Is he a picky eater? This is the first time I've heard of it, but if Bo'er is Meng Xuan's concubine, she can't care about Meng Xuan's mouth alone, why do you have to take Meng Ying's mouth into account? As Meng Xuan's concubine, there are so many functions?
He Angelica couldn't help but be ready to move, and wanted to ask her straight to the point, if it was Meng Xuan's concubine, and how long she had been with Meng Xuan. Meng Xuan's guy is very cunning, he always likes to pretend to be innocent, and she can't get a word of truth from his mouth. If he is thick-skinned enough, he may have to call himself a "virgin". He would coax her, saying that he still can't remember the names of several concubines, who can believe this? It's just a subordinate who grinds water, and he has to remember his name if he uses it twice, right? Meng Xuan, you liar. The injury is not better.
Seeing that He Angelica was sullen for a long time and didn't speak, Bo'er smiled again: "I heard them say that Miss He is a fairy-like character, and after listening to it, I really don't believe it." But now I take a closer look, ho! It turns out that the 'fairy daughter' is what they don't say, that is, the fox fairy and flower demon who are famous for their beauty in the play, are not as good-looking as Miss You, no wonder they dazzled everyone's eyes. ”
He Angelica smiled silently. This silk is a bit interesting, and will take the initiative to stab her, mocking her as a vixen. Does this mean that the lioness is defending her territory? Meng Xuan, is it her private land?
According to Meng Xuan in the dream, the three concubines in his family, the one named "Zixiao" was brought home by the Taoist aunt and was taken home by Meng Xuan and his mother; There is another foreign daughter, who was rewarded to him by Meng Xuan's mother as a maid; Another official's daughter, who is said to resemble herself, was collected by Meng Xuan in his collection. And the one in front of him, named "Bo'er", excludes option one; There is a certain gap between your appearance and yourself, and option 3 is excluded.
Bingo! He Angelica said with a smile: "I once heard Meng Xuan mention that there is a daughter outside of him, and she is more caring than everyone else, isn't it you?" ”
"Extraneous daughter?" Bo'er repeated strangely, "Although the slave and maid have been here for a short time, they have also recognized people up and down, and they have never heard of anyone who is the daughter of an outsider." ”
"......" He Angelica was silently puzzled for a while, is Bo'er new? Is it a newcomer by Meng Xuan's side? Not one of the three existing concubines? Hehe, he's really not idle, he's so energetic...... The smile on her face grew brighter. Okay, it's good to be energetic, it's better if the house is full of wives and concubines, and the children will be more prosperous in the future, how good, she is also happy for him. It's just that what kind of pass is Yitong selling on the other end, and she is not allowed to see Meng Xuan, is there anything unsightly about Meng Xuan now. She is not a person who cannot tolerate others, why should she hide it like this, can't she be more open? She looks like an intolerable person?
"It's here!" Bo'er suddenly turned around and smiled, "I heard that it was a new spring that only burst out last year, and the amount of water produced is sometimes too much, the sulfur is thick, and it has a little salty taste, Miss He, don't open your mouth and drink the salty water when you wash it." There are few people in the Zhuangzi, and the slave maid has not been sorted out in the front yard, guessing that you also like to bathe quietly alone, and the slave and maid will not make trouble with you. After saying that, Ling Ling smiled, turned around and walked away.
He Angelica stood alone at the door of the steamy bathhouse, looking at the back of the departing silk, and had two points of amusement in his heart. She really likes to bathe alone, but she was brought up by the "slave maid" who served the bath, and was abandoned by the other party like this, which was the first time she had experienced it.
This silk is really interesting. He always calls himself a slave and maid, but he is very proud in his tone, as if he is the master of this room. I don't know if it's my own careful eyes, I always feel that when she mentions Meng Xuan, she still has a bit of "my family's mouth" possessiveness. She took over herself from Yitong, was it just to lead the way and say a few cool words that were not salty or light?
Thinking like this, I planned to go find a dress to change into, and then go shopping elsewhere, but I suddenly caught a slightly hoarse female voice in my ears, and I could identify its identity. It's Xiao Suxin.
"Xuan's master looking for me?" Xiao Suxin was puzzled, "I just met Meng Ying, but he didn't mention it at all." Why do you look so nervous? You're not going to lie to me, are you? The voice came from a room diagonally across the aisle, only to hear a moment of silence in that room, Xiao Suxin said in an affirmative tone, "Sure enough, you are lying to me, you are trying to break me up." Why are you pushing me apart? Why don't you let me take care of Xuan, Yiyu? ”
Before Yi Yi could make up a reason to reply, a voice at the door already laughed, "Maybe it's because there's someone in the courtyard who shouldn't have come," He Angelica stood at the door with his hands in his hands, looked at the scene in the room, and said with a smile, "You must be Miss Xiao, my surname is He, He Angelica." Maybe it's because I'm here that I made your room like this, and I'm really sorry that I didn't ask you to take care of Meng Xuan in peace. ”
The house was full of water stains, chicken feathers, Xiao Suxin herself was also a soup chicken like a water lotus, she looked at He Angelica in a daze, it took half a cup of tea for so long, before she showed an expression similar to a smile, laughed halfway, sneezed loudly, and then apologized: "It turned out that Miss He arrived, then I'm afraid I won't need me here, I'll go to bathe and change clothes, and I'll leave it to you." His medicine was simmering on the stove outside the room, and it was time to eat it again; The quilt had to be changed every hour, and he was in a cold sweat all the time; One more thing, he can't blow the wind, although the room is stuffy and smelly, there are two more inexplicable big roosters, fluttering around, and he has to endure it for the time being. ”
He Danggui heard her voice be more hoarse than the last time he saw her, and said with concern: "You are cold, I'm afraid it's not a short time, listen to the lungs and get angry." ”
"Yes," Xiao Suxin said frankly, "I couldn't see Xuan a few days ago, and I was anxious." Then, this time it's you, I hope you can do better than me, so that he doesn't always sleep with a frown, and the people watching are tired and panicked. ”
The first confrontation of the rival in the world is like soft satin and silk.
