Chapter 38: The Fourth Benefit

Tian Xiang smiled and poured the broth from the clay pot into a delicate porcelain pot, "I'll go back, you're busy." ”

She returned to Hengwu Courtyard with the soup, and by the light of the lantern, she saw a girl in plain clothes, carrying a small burden, walking slowly over.

She was a little surprised: "Su asked? ”

Su Wen is the second-class maid of Hengwuyuan who took leave at the beginning, because she took leave and went home, Xiuhe would be dispatched in.

She nodded slightly towards Tian Xiang: "Sister Tian Xiang." ”

Seeing that her face had lost a lot of weight, Tian Xiang walked in with her and asked, "Why don't you stay at home for a few more days?" ”

Su Wen looked no more than fourteen years old, his long hair was simply pulled up with a silver hairpin, his appearance was delicate and small, and his apricot eyes seemed to be weeping but not crying, covered with a thin layer of mist, which was very pitiful.

"My sister is terminally ill and went a few days ago."

The spring breeze blew, and she grabbed the tie of the burden and whispered.

Tian Xiang sighed in her heart and turned her head to look at her, but she just lowered her head and hid her sad face.

"Even you can't cure it?" Tian Xiang frowned, Su Wen's medical skills were very good, she could have been a medical woman, but she was later included in the master's command.

Su Wen shook his head and followed her into the main hall of Hengwu Courtyard.

Tian Xiang put the porcelain basin on the table and took a small bowl to serve: "During the time you went back, a lot of things happened in our house. ”

"I heard what the head manager Gu said," Su Wen grabbed the little burden and smiled a little reluctantly, "That little lady is the same size as my sister." I really want to see what she looks like. ”

Tian Xiang filled a bowl of broth, and the fresh flavor of the broth immediately spread.

Su Wen wrinkled his nose, "What is this soup?" ”

"I ordered the people in the kitchen to boil up for the little lady's body. What's wrong? Tim Xiang asked softly.

The more Su Wen smelled it, the more wrong it became, so he pulled out the silver hairpin on his head and poked it directly into the soup.

In just a few moments, the silver hairpin became jet black.

Tian Xiang was startled, Kankan put the soup bowl on the table, lowered his voice, and looked incredulous: "Someone poisoned?!" ”

At this time, Jun Tianlan was not in the mansion, and Shen Miaoyan was sitting on the soft couch in his study, reading and reading drowsy.

She heard the two of them talk about the poisonous soup, and suddenly came to her senses: "Who else in this house can't look at me?" It must be the old witch who is secretly doing it! ”

"Yes! When the slave maid went to serve the soup, she heard the little girl in the kitchen say that Mama Wang had been to the kitchen today and had stayed for a long time! Tian Xiang is not angry, "She is really ruthless!" ”

Su Wen looked at Shen Miaoyan, this little girl was round, white and tender, and she looked much more blessed than her sister.

She sighed imperceptibly, now that her only relatives had left her, she didn't know what to do in the future.

Shen Miaoyan glanced at Su Wen, keenly catching her sighs and sorrows, but the words were said to Tian Xiang:

"Sister Tianxiang, the national teacher asked me to read "The Mean Collection of Notes", there is a sentence on it that the way of a gentleman is to govern others with the way of others. You can find a way to send this soup to Mama Wang's room. If you are blamed by the national teacher, I will bear it for you! ”

Tian Xiang was stunned, and then showed a happy smile: "Little Miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely do it!" With that, he hurriedly went out with the soup.

She has been by Jun Tianlan's side for several years, although she is a servant girl, but in her hands, she is inevitably contaminated with a lot of killing and blood.

What is the point of killing a grandmother?

And Su Wen couldn't help but look at Shen Miaoyan a few more times, this Miss Shen looked harmless, ignorant and immature, but she never thought that her mind would be so ruthless.

Shen Miaoyan saw her thoughts, and said seriously: "Su Wen, sister, if she didn't harm me, she would still be a good and decent Mama Wang." However, she is not interested, so it's no wonder that I am! ”

As she spoke, without waiting for Su Wen to speak, she took a handful of candy from the plate on the table and stuffed it into her hand, and her voice was sweet: "Sister Su Wen, what were you sighing about just now?" Eat a few pieces of candy and don't worry about it anymore. ”

Su Wen was stunned, but he didn't expect that this Miss Shen didn't look big, but her mind was so detailed.

She pinched the handful of candy, only to feel sweat in her palms.

After a while, she gave Shen Miaoyan a blessing salute very respectfully: "The slave maid does not disturb the little lady's study, and the slave and maid retire." ”

With that, he cautiously retreated.

Shen Miaoyan tilted her head and was about to retract her gaze, but saw a black corner of her clothes faintly revealing outside the curtain.

She held the book and shook her head: "Zi said, don't look at indecent things, don't listen to indecent people." Master Guoshi, when did you become a person who doesn't understand etiquette? There are so many sage books here! ”

Jun Tianlan walked in from outside the curtain, his thin lips pursed and he smiled a little, "You are full of wealth now." ”

Shen Miaoyan covered her lips with a book, only revealing a pair of curved eyebrows under the lamp, "It's really not easy to get a word of praise from the national teacher!" ”

Jun Tianlan sat down beside her, stretched out his long arms, directly encircled her in his arms, and held the book in her hand with both hands, "Where do you see?" ”

Shen Miaoyan didn't expect him to make such an intimate action, so he was stunned, raised his head, but met his deep eyes.

Under the lamp, his face was delicate and cold, although it was gloomy and domineering, it was not frightening. The bursts of ambergris on the body are revealed, but they are wrapped in the coldness of the night, sweet and cold, and it smells very good.

Shen Miaoyan only felt that his heart was beating a little faster, his cheeks were red, and he looked down and pointed to the sentence in the book: "I saw 'use the way of others, and also treat the body of others'......"

"You're going to learn and put it into practice." Jun Tianlan's voice was low, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.

Shen Miaoyan pursed her lips and said softly: "The national teacher taught me before, cutting grass and roots, killing three birds with one stone, Miaomiao can remember it carefully." Giving that soup to Mama Wang is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so that she will not have bad intentions to harm me in the future. ”

"What do you say about killing three birds with one stone?" Jun Tianlan still circled her, took the book in her hand, and flipped through it casually.

A few long strands of hair on his forehead fell down, and they landed right next to Shen Miaoyan's cheeks, a little itchy.

She couldn't help but stretch out her hand, pinched a strand of his long black hair, sniffed the incense on his body, and was a little distracted: "Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is the first benefit." Warning Murong Yan to stop casually conniving at others to harm me is the second benefit. Let me be trustworthy in this house, which is the third benefit. ”

Jun Tianlan listened, a little smile appeared in his eyes, and he withdrew his hand, "Go make tea." ”

Shen Miaoyan jumped off the soft couch and ran out, but he thought in his heart that being a hard-hearted person like the national teacher and pleasing him was the fourth benefit.
