Chapter 53: Night Visit
Tonight is Liu Yu's night, and Nie Xiaofan is practicing calligraphy until Hai. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info Liu Yu also nagged to the time.
The candles on the candlestick were about to burn out, and Liu Yu lit a new wax to replace the old one. smiled: "The girl is very busy every day, reading the account book in the morning and practicing embroidery during the day." I have to practice calligraphy at night... I don't know how to rest and rest..."
Nie Xiaofan pretended to be gentle and shook his head at Liu Yu: In fact, in my heart, I want to be a rice worm who eats and waits for death, but the whip of fate has to drive me to the bitter sea of life!
But he said: "I used to be sick for a long time, and I couldn't do anything. I'm much better now, and I always feel like I'm running out of energy..."
Liu Yu was very dissatisfied with this phenomenon and nagged her to stop. As she was talking, Mama Jiang asked to see her in the evening.
Nie Xiaofan guessed that something had happened in Fu'an Hall, so he invited Mama Jiang in.
"Girl, the old lady is sick! Now the old man has gone to ask for a doctor..."
Liu Yu still couldn't change her mouth quickly, she said: "If you are sick, you will be sick, it has nothing to do with us." Our girl's health is not good, she won't ask her to serve, right?"
Nie Xiaofan thought it was the same: "It's just that the second sister and aunt are afraid that they will have to work hard..."
Mama Jiang said: "The girl doesn't know, the old lady never takes the initiative to see the second girl." Even if the second girl goes to visit, the old lady will send her away! Besides, the old man is guarding tonight, and it is inconvenient for the second lady to come over. ”
Nie Xiaofan said: "That's it, we will go to the temple early tomorrow morning to offer incense." Add one more prayer for the old lady. I don't think she has a chance to torture my aunt..."
After Mama Jiang stepped back, Nie Xiaofan had no intention of practicing calligraphy. Refreshen up and rest.
Liu Yu was still resting on the couch in the middle room. For fear of getting up at night and not being able to see at night. There was a lamp outside
Nie Xiaofan slept soundly, and she heard someone call her: "Xiaofan... Xiao Fan. "The voice is cold and crisp, and it is very good.
Nie Xiaofan thought he was dreaming, ignored it, and planned to turn over and continue sleeping. Who knew that in a daze, I saw a black shadow standing in front of me...
Nie Xiaofan was excited, sat up busily, and wrapped himself tightly with the quilt. Looked at the man in black vigilantly:
This is a woman with a handsome face. The hair is tied high at the back of the head, adding a bit of sleekness. She was dressed in a night dress and held a candlestick, and the faint light could not hide her cold temperament.
Who's this?
Nie Xiaofan asked in his heart.
"Sister Qiaoqiao?" Liu Yu shouted. interrupted Nie Xiaofan's thoughts.
"Zhou Qiaoqiao?"
Nie Xiaofan asked in his heart, and looked at her quietly again. If you look closely, the faces are very similar. It's just that the temperament is very different, and Zhou Qiaoqiao in his memory is very lively and cheerful.
Maybe I have suffered a little in the past few months on the run, and I have changed my temperament.
Liu Yu rushed up and hugged Zhou Qiaoqiao: "Sister Qiaoqiao, the girl and I miss you so much!
Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't speak, and patted Liu Yu's hand slightly. Gently broke free from Liu Yu's bear hug.
She is also looking at Nie Xiaofan!
Nie Xiaofan was busy brainwashing himself in his heart: "I'm Nie Xiaofan... I'm Nie Xiaofan..."
After reading this more than ten times, Nie Xiaofan suddenly lifted the quilt, intending to learn from Liu Yu to give Zhou Qiaoqiao a bear hug.
Zhou Qiaoqiao quickly saw her purpose, and said coldly: "It's good for you to lie down!"
actually refused Nie Xiaofan to give her a long-lost hug?
It's a bit embarrassing!
Nie Xiaofan lay back on the bed, brewed his emotions, and said, "Qiaoqiao, I've always been worried about you. ”
Zhou Qiaoqiao was still standing, her face was cold, and she didn't react.
After Nie Xiaofan finished speaking, she slightly hooked the corners of her mouth: "Me too!"
It was obviously a good word, but Zhou Qiaoqiao's words had no temperature at all, and Nie Xiaofan shuddered when he heard it... I felt a cool breeze blowing on my back.
Did she notice?
It shouldn't be!
Will she kill me like a youkai?
What is her killing weapon? Is it the candlestick in her hand?
Can I run away?
How to run?
Maybe I can rebel against Liu Yu and let her delay time for me?
That's not going to work! Look at her posture, Liu Yu will definitely have to die honorably!
Between the lightning and flint, Nie Xiaofan fought between heaven and man in his heart. Countless possibilities have been envisioned... Just as she thought of how to beg for mercy, Zhou Qiaoqiao spoke:
"I just came to see you, and they said you're okay. I don't feel at ease!" the voice was a little desolate.
After hearing this, Nie Xiaofan had a pause in the drums of war in his heart.
This week, Qiaoqiao is really a must-have girlfriend at home!
Nie Xiaofan was busy sorting out his emotions and said, "I'm also very worried about you, look at your appearance." I must have suffered a lot!"
Zhou Qiaoqiao turned around and sat down at the tea table on the side, and put the candlestick on the table. She reached out to pour her tea. Liu Yu hurriedly said: "The tea is cold, Sister Qiaoqiao will wait for a while, and I'll pour hot water for you..."
Zhou Qiaoqiao said: "No need, I'll leave in a while!"
Leave in a while? It's finally time to come back, where are you going?
Nie Xiaofan asked, "Do you want to go back to Changping?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao's face was expressionless, and she said, "No, I have already been to Changping." I am currently living in the capital with my master. ”
Zhou Qiaoqiao's master? Nie Xiaofan's memory of the master is also cold. According to Zhou Zhuangtou and his wife, it was a woman from the rivers and lakes who was inadvertently rescued, and the woman stayed in Zhuangzi to teach Zhou Qiaoqiao martial arts in order to repay her kindness. I came back several times a year for the years since. It's always been mysterious.
The original owner never doubted her identity.
Isn't that a Jianghu woman? How can she have a place to live in the capital?
Nie Xiaofan said: "I wrote you a letter and sent it to Changping, I think you didn't receive it, right?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it violently. 'snapped' the teacup back on the table, which frightened Nie Xiaofan's heart.
She said: "I went to Changping just to report safety, but I didn't receive any letters. ”
Nie Xiaofan wondered in his heart why she wasn't with Zhou Zhuangtou and his wife. But in accordance with the principle of saying more and making more mistakes. Nie Xiaofan chose a "oh" that covered thousands of meanings.
Zhou Qiaoqiao's words changed: "Are you going out recently?"
Liu Yu said: "The girl is going to incense tomorrow..."
Zhou Qiaoqiao poured another cup of tea, looked at it in his hand, and asked, "Which temple are you going to?"
How is this not played according to common sense?
Nie Xiaofan said: "I went with my aunt, I don't know which temple it is." But you shouldn't be able to go to Huangjue Temple. ”
It is said that Huangjue Temple is the place where the royal family worships the sky, and the Jiang family can go there on the day of the accident, which is also brought by Mrs. Zhou.
Zhou Qiaoqiao said: "I don't even know where to go, and you're not afraid that people will sell you?"
Nie Xiaofan was embarrassed for a while, she was indeed like this, and she never guarded against people she trusted. Liu Yu said: "The second wife is very good to the girl, not a bad person." ”
"Is it a bad person, is it written on his face? People who are good to you will not sell you? How do you know that she is not harboring evil intentions?" Zhou Qiaoqiao asked repeatedly.
Liu Yu didn't know what to say for a while, so she lowered her head aggrievedly. The atmosphere was suddenly a little silent, and Nie Xiaofan said, "Where did you get the anger? Why do you need to speak so violently?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao still couldn't see the joy and anger. She gulped down the tea in her hand. Said: "I'll be waiting for you tomorrow at the mouth of the alley." From now on, I must report to me before I go out. I will protect you. ”
Nie Xiaofan said: "Where to find you?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao thought for a while and said, "You have a shop on Xicheng Silk Street, and there is a new guy named Xiaozhu in it. It's my Master's friend. Every time you want to go out, send someone to say that you want to buy Dark Flowers. I'll come to the alley and wait for you..."
This?
Nie Xiaofan and Liu Yu looked at each other, can it be so complicated?
It's not a spy movie.
What I didn't expect was that a series of things that happened later told Nie Xiaofan that this trick was simply too necessary!
Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't care what they thought in their hearts. After saying this, she jumped out of the window...
It's true that I came quietly, just as I walked quietly.
Liu Yu looked at the back of Pian Ran's departure: "Girl, have you noticed that Sister Qiaoqiao has changed a lot?"
Nie Xiaofan said: "Yes, it's darkened." ”
Liu Yu instantly blackened: "Xu is... Maybe it's because I can't see clearly..."
Nie Xiaofan fell on the bed with a thud, "Let's talk about it tomorrow." ”
Anyway, today's catastrophe is over.
――――――――――――――――――――
Early the next morning, Nie Xiaofan got up to freshen up.
Liu Xinzheng lowered her head to choose clothes for her, and Nie Xiaofan said, "Just wear plain clothes." In the past, I used to go out to other people's houses as guests, so I changed my clothes. Nowadays it is to go to the temple. Wearing plain clothes won't bump anyone. ”
Liu Xin nodded in response, and took another moon-white cotton cloak: "It's cold on the mountain..."
Nie Xiaofan nodded, and when the things were ready, Nie Xiaofan ordered: "Fennel and Liu Yu accompany me to greet the old lady." Liu Xin and Mama Jiang are optimistic about their home. ”
Mama Jiang smiled and nodded in response, and Liu Xin stopped talking. Nie Xiaofan didn't give her a chance to speak again. Took Liu Yu and Fennel away.
Outside the Fu'an Hall, Lian also happened to arrive. She took Nie Xiaofan's hand and said, "Let's go to the Shuiyue Nunnery in Xishan today." I've got everything in order. ”
The two entered Fu'an Hall one after the other.
Fu'an Hall is so lively. Nie Baijun sued for pretense and guarded Mrs. Nie. Nie Xuan and Nie Hua also stayed with each other all night. Aunt Mei was also called by Nie Baijun to serve.
When Nie Xiaofan arrived at Fu'an Hall, Mama Yang's trembling old lady needed to recuperate. I don't see them.
Nie Xiaofan looked at the people with dark circles in this room, and knew that the old lady's recuperation was just that she didn't want to see the people who annoyed her, such as Lian's, such as Nie Xiaofan, such as Nie Xiao'e...
Nie Xiaofan said: "Annoying grandma to inform my grandmother, my aunt and I plan to go to Shuiyue Nunnery to pray for our grandmother." I don't know if it's possible?"
Although Nie Xiaofan said it politely, he had the intention of staying and serving me if he didn't agree.
Nie Xuan looked at Nie Xiaofan and Lian's indescribable envy, jealousy and hatred, Old Lady Nie was indeed sick, but she couldn't wait to toss these people to be sick. Nie Baijun can sleep for a while, and the three of them mother and son will be miserable: if they want to drink water, Aunt Mei will not take it, and Nie Xuan will not drink it, and Aunt Mei, Nie Xuan, and Nie Hua's mother and son will serve at the side at the same time to be stable...
After a while, Mama Yang came out of the inner room and told them that they could go.
Nie Xiaofan guessed that Old Lady Nie's original words might have told them to leave quickly.
The Lian family now did not miss any opportunity to hit Old Lady Nie, and she saw Nie Hua tired and took a nap. Said: "What's the matter with Brother Hua? Although serving my grandmother is filial piety, what kind of family are we? Why are we so tired? Are all the subordinates who serve my mother dead?"
Although Nie Baijun was sick last night, he only rested in the western room. Therefore, Mrs. Nie deliberately tried to tribulate her children and grandchildren, and she didn't know that now Lian said so. He also thought that it was the reason for the deliberate neglect of his subordinates.
Nie Xiaofan said: "Do you think that no one will discipline your grandmother when she is sick?"
