戌時.

Tingzhu brought a bowl of chicken noodles and a few braised vegetables from the kitchen.

"Miss, it's too late, and the cooks have gone back to their rooms to rest. That's all there is to it, so you can make do with it. I ordered the noodles, you taste the saltiness first. ”

In ancient times, it was equivalent to 8 o'clock in the evening, which is not too late. However, since the ancients were generally accustomed to going to bed early and there was no entertainment at night, it was the dead of night at this time, and everyone fell asleep.

But Ning Qiuyue is different, she is still enjoying a good night snack alone.

Since returning home, her appetite has gradually returned to normal, and how can the "shallow taste" eating method in the palace be enough for her to fill her stomach.

The dignified palace is like a weight loss training camp, and the girls eat with only a dip in their mouths to fill up. She Ning Qiuyue can't stand it, only love and food in this world can't be disappointed. Since love has not yet appeared, you have to spoil your stomach to death.

"Wow, listen to bamboo, you cooked this noodle? Looks really good. Ning Qiuyue rubbed her little hands excitedly.

While hurriedly looking for chopsticks, he didn't forget to make fun of the bamboo. "If I were a man, I would marry you. I have a good mouth for a lifetime. ”

Tingzhu's face burned red, and the girl's mind was fully revealed in those smart eyes. Ever since she met the guard Li Yan in the palace, she had a little heart and secretly agreed with him. Now hearing Ning Qiuyue's words of praise again, it aroused her thoughts even more.

If there is a chance to give Li Shiwei a bowl of noodles in the future, what a happy thing it would be.

"Miss, don't make fun of me."

"Haha, I'm serious. This noodle whets my appetite, and I'm going to eat it all without a drop. Ning Qiuyue smiled and picked up the chopsticks, first picked up a roll and sent it to her mouth.

"Miss, be careful of the burn. Blow it cold before eating, there are also some braised chicken wings and braised eggs, you can eat these first. ”

"It's fine."

Ning Qiuyue picked up a braised chicken wing and snorted it in her mouth, well, this tastes great.

"Listen to bamboo, let's eat together."

Listening to the bitterness on Zhu's face, since following Ning Qiuyue, she has gained several pounds.

"Miss, I don't eat, I'm not hungry."

Seeing Tingzhu pointing at her waist, she was happy, this little girl's waist is indeed strong. So he shrugged, "Okay then." ”

The craftsmanship of listening to the bamboo boiled noodles is good, and the noodles are fragrant and delicious. Seeing that the noodles were almost not so hot, Ning Qiuyue rolled them in the noodles with chopsticks and rolled up a small ball. This is her habit of eating noodles, and she likes to roll noodles on chopsticks like a lollipop.

"It tastes good......"

"Oops."

After taking a bite, her head began to hurt for no apparent reason.

"Miss, what's wrong with you." Tingzhu was frightened.

Could it be that there is something wrong with this bowl of noodles that you cooked yourself? Impossible.

Tingzhu was so anxious that he quickly tasted it, no problem, it was moderately salty, and there was no discomfort in the body.

But Ning Qiuyue propped up her head, and seemed to be getting more and more uncomfortable.

"Miss, why don't I call the master to take a look for you."

Ning Qiuyue took her hand, "No need, I'll just lie down and rest for a while." ”

Ning Qiuyue couldn't tell what was going on with this painful feeling, as if her head was fitted with a tight spell, anyway, she had a splitting headache.

"Well, that's fine. It's getting late, miss, and I'll serve you to bed. ”

Outside, the bamboo shadows swayed, and the wind was blowing, making the wooden windows click. Afraid that the cool breeze that poured in would blow the temperature in the room low, Tingzhu hurriedly walked up and closed the window. She glanced out, and the moonlight was completely obscured by dark clouds tonight, and it looked like there would be a heavy rain in the middle of the night.

A thicker quilt was taken out of the cabinet and spread on Ning Qiuyue's bed. Another stove was added to make the room a little warmer.

"Listen to Zhu, why don't you come up and sleep with me." Ning Qiuyue lifted the corner of the quilt and moved her body inside, leaving a place outside for Tingzhu.

Tingzhu naturally didn't dare to sleep with the young lady, which would mess up the rules.

She had already taken out her futon and spread it on the ground.

"Miss, I'll sleep next to your bed. If you can't sleep, I'll talk to you. ”

Ning Qiuyue was very moved, "Listen to Zhu, you are so good." ”

In addition to Ning Qiuyue's room, there was also a light on the other side of the wing, which was Ning Yunyao's room.

This night, she also had no sleep.

"Second Miss, it's time to rest." The purple cicada brought a basin of foot-washing water from outside.

Zi Cicada is already young, and she is thin and weak, and she has been beaten and scolded by Ning Yunyao all the year round, so she always gives people a feeling of illness. Even holding a footbasin is weak, and you can take two steps and take three steps.

"Don't you know how to knock on the door first?" Ning Yunyao turned her face sideways and quickly hid the witch Gu doll in her hand behind her.

The purple cicada leaned on the corner of the door, holding the basin and said, "I'm sorry Second Miss, I didn't have my hands free." ”

Ning Yunyao glared at her, "It's really stupid, bring the footwashing water." ”

"Yes, Second Miss."

Zi Cicada is used to being scolded by Ning Yunyao, as long as she doesn't beat her, it will be a blessing.

In fact, Ning Yunyao doesn't have to hide it, Zi Cicada is her personal maid, and she has served by her side for so many years, what kind of person is she Ning Yunyao, can Zi Cicada not understand?

Although Zi Cicada is a timid and afraid little girl, she is very loyal, she will keep the bad things Ning Yunyao does absolutely secret, and she will not confide a word to the outside when she is killed.

Originally, such a maid should be liked by Ning Yunyao, but because the purple cicada looks a little like the eldest lady Ning Qiuyue, she is often disliked by Ning Yunyao.

Ning Yunyao's witch doll was available half a month ago, and this doll was used to curse Ning Qiuyue. I usually use it to vent my anger when I am in a bad mood, and I can tie my legs, arms, stomach, and head......

"Second Miss, wash your feet first." Purple Cicada squatted down to take off Ning Yunyao's shoes.

"Purple Cicada, you always knew about me doing witch dolls, right?" Ning Yunyao looked at her.

Zi Cicada hurriedly shook her head, "Second Miss, I haven't said anything, I swear to God." ”

"Alright, alright, I got it." Ning Yunyao said and took out the witch doll hidden behind her, handed it to Zi Cicada, and said, "It just so happens that I'm also tired, you can help me get two stitches." ”

"Me?" That witch doll was so terrifying that the purple cicada didn't dare to catch it at all, let alone stick a needle into it.

But Ning Yunyao wouldn't let her go so easily, only to see her stuff the witch doll into Zi Cicada's arms, and said viciously to her: "Do you see the head of this doll?" That's it, give me a hard stab! ”

"Second Miss, I'...... Can't do it...... Can't do it. ”

The purple cicada collapsed to the ground in fright, her eyes staring at the doll's head that was pierced like a cactus, and she passed out again.
