Chapter Thirty-Eight: Kept as a Private Property
"You're a little girl, and you're cheating! Even an old man of mine bullied! This game doesn't count, start over! "
In the pavilion of Yanyuan in King Zhao's Mansion, an old man blew his beard and glared angrily at the little girl who smiled like a flower on the other side.
"Grandpa, why doesn't this count? It's obvious that you're a step behind in chess, why do you blame me for cheating? The soldier said treacherously, you can't see the trap yourself, how can you blame him? "
Jiang Xi blinked her long eyelashes like a crow's feather, and her voice was sweet and soft.
She has been staying in the house for the past few days, taking advantage of her grandmother's absence, she took Qianhe to find Uncle Chen, and put a swing in Qiongyu Pavilion to pass the time.
It didn't take long for me to feel bored, and I couldn't raise my interest anymore, but when I came to this Yan Garden, I saw an old man lying on the stone table and falling asleep, turning over and having the prints on his face all the prints of the chessboard, crisscrossing such as vegetable beds.
This chess game is not difficult, she figured it out early, and she hadn't played against anyone for a long time, so she helped solve it when she was interested.
Who knew that the old man woke up, and when he saw her untie the chess game, he pulled his sleeves and didn't let him go, and accompanied him back and forth for a few rounds, Jiang Xi never lost!
This old man has a stinky chess basket, and his temper is still poor, and he can't resist getting to the bottom of it.
Thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he was Yan Zhao's teacher when he was young, Jiang Xi was very suspicious of whether this old man was real?
More scoundrel than anyone, she is still very skilled!
This time it was the turn of the old man to make a fuss with a bitter face: "I said that you little girl, you are so rude!" I didn't have any chess at all, but I hesitated when I was down, and I just pressed my hand, and I said that I had no regrets! Do you know that your future husband will serve me like a grandson for his ancestors, and if he knows that you dare to neglect me like this, see if he will marry you or not! "
These words happened to step on Jiang Xi's sore feet, her white and tender peach cheeks floated with a layer of powder, her peach blossom eyes were soaked in water, and her black round pupils glared at the old man angrily: "An old man who is five years older than me, you are willing to marry this girl!" "
Then he got up and left this gloomy place.
When the old man saw that something was wrong with him, he hurriedly chased after him and said, "Old man, I'm talking nonsense, you little girl don't have to care!" Eh-stop! Stop it! "
Jiang Xi's steps were fast and urgent, and Qianhe followed quickly.
The old man followed behind and regretted it, thinking that if he angered this little girl, she would not want to marry again, wouldn't it be bad!
Yan Shubai, the heartless white-eyed wolf, must have to settle accounts with him.
At that time, he will not be able to stand this old bone.
"Eh! Why is your girl's temper so stubborn, the old man has apologized to you! Don't be offended! That's what I just said! Shubai, this kid doesn't recognize me as a teacher, and he definitely won't want to marry you! Did you hear that? "
After running for a while, the old man stopped panting.
Jiang Xi is not the kind of high-minded lady, but she was already suspicious of Yan Zhao's willingness to marry her, she was worried all day long, and she was stabbed by the old man's soft knife, and she could endure her face without changing her color, then it was not her.
Seeing that the old man was chasing hard, he didn't start to be so angry, and his pace slowed down.
She would never admit that it was the old man who spoke well and listened to her.
"You have a lot of girls and villains, so don't worry about me, an old man full of nonsense!"
He finally caught up, holding his waist and panting, and said words of reparation: "I have caramel here, don't be angry if you eat it!" "
Jiang Xi saw that the old man took out a small indigo porcelain bottle from his arms and poured a small tan pill from it.
"This is really caramel candy, isn't it some kind of poison?"
"You illiterate little girl, if others can't see it, and now I give you as an apology, do you still think that the old man has bad intentions?"
He carefully held the brown granules the size of soybeans, pinched them with one hand, and followed them down with the other, for fear of falling off.
Seeing him so careful, Jiang Xi took the letter suspiciously: "Is it really sugar and not poison?" Sweet or not? "
"Hurry up and eat! What nonsense? "
The old man was a little angry, how precious this medicine was, and now that it was given to her for nothing, he was still reluctant! That's it, that's it!
"Hmm~"
Where's this caramel candy? The poison was almost the same, it was extremely unpalatable, and Jiang Xi couldn't help but feel sick.
Seeing this, the old man hurriedly stepped forward and pinched Jiang Xi's mouth that was about to open: "Swallow it quickly, if it spits on the ground, I will pick it up and stuff it into your mouth!" "
"Miss!"
Qihe was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim.
"What kind of caramel is this! I think it's clearly poison, you are so ruthless, and it is a shame that my Royal Highness serves you like a grandson for your ancestors! "
She choked with red eyes.
"It's not a poison, it's a rare good thing, it's the only one in the world, you don't want to know the goods! I'm still distressed for you! "
After feeding the medicine, the old man changed his previous posture of low and coaxing, and walked away slowly with his hands behind his back.
Qianhe gave her a long back before she recovered, and the person was long gone, so she had to give up.
At this moment, a column of people walked in front of him, a dark purple palace dress at the beginning, followed by a line of palace maids dressed in pink clothes.
Before she could turn her head, her hand was trembling, her face was pale, and her legs were trembling: "Little... Miss, it's up to you whether the maid can survive or not! "
As she spoke, she threw herself on her knees and cried: "The slave is guilty! O forgiveness of sins! "
Jiang Xi knew that Mama would not spare the lotus, and before the tears flowed, her legs stepped out first and threw herself into Mama's arms and cried: "Mama, Mama misses you so much, why did you come?" I've suffered so much here... Whining... If it weren't for Sister Qianhe, I'm afraid I wouldn't know where and where she died, and she would never see her grandmother again. "
"Someone brought her down for me, as a maid who didn't know how to admonish the master, she came by the young lady's temperament, if you let you go this time, I think you will dare next time! Don't rely on the fact that you don't know who you are since you were a child, and you really don't dare to deal with you when you are old? "
As she spoke, Mama Zhou gently stroked Jiang Xi's back: "Miss, look, these are all specially selected by me from the palace to serve you, they are all first-class in appearance, soft in temperament, and the most important thing-"
"-I won't connive at my master's nonsense!"
When she said this, she cried with cold eyes and cried about the lotus who was taken away, and said softly to Jiang Xi: "Didn't Miss say that she missed Mama, wait a while, Mama will bathe Mademoiselle herself, take a good look at Miss?" "
Mama has already achieved such a point, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for Qianhe to escape death.
But if she is allowed to dispose of the lotus, how can she be willing?
Those memories that she thought she had forgotten appeared in front of those hazy tears.
The raging blizzard, a white expanse, a father with a heavy face and a scruffy beard, always with a heavy bloody smell on his body, and a mother with an indissoluble sorrow in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
The nights that woke up from sleep were the sound of the wind whirring outside the window, the sound of swords and the roars of the soldiers, the firelight, and the lonely cries.
Everything is vivid......
A war took everything from her, and now even the lotus is going to be taken away?
"Mama, please! Please! Let go of Sister Qianhe! It's my fault! Please don't blame Sister Qianhe! Mama beg, let go of Sister Qianhe, please, please..."
Tears fell from the red eyes and smashed to the ground, Jiang Xi was incoherent, pleading repeatedly...
Mama Zhou gently pinched her white jaw, and her tone was cold: "Miss has a group of servants, what if there is no one of her?" Isn't life enough? Be good, obedient, don't make it difficult for Mama, this rule can't stand up today, how will Mama care about this slave up and down in the future? Besides, does the young lady know that the soldiers in the Northland are reversed? "
Jiang Xi slowly let go of the hand holding the corner of her clothes, stopped the tears in the corners of her eyes, and said in a low voice: "Then grandma can allow me to give Sister Qianhe a ride?" "
"How can the young lady of that place settle down, don't go, save the young lady's eyes from dirty, a cheap maid who can't get on the stage, why don't Miss Lao worry? Let's let Mama take a bath for you herself, take a good look, don't you say you miss Mama? "
She raised a false and cold smile, blurted out the word, she Jiang Ji regarded as a sister, and when she got into her mouth, she became a who could be killed at will!
Look at how hypocritical it is, if my father and mother have spirits in heaven, how would they feel when they saw their daughter who was like a pearl and jade falling into such a field now?
Everyone in the world thinks that it is a great honor for her Jiang Xi to marry Yan Zhao, the Seventh Highness.
But who knew that her Jiang family was full of blood on the battlefield, no one was alive, her father gave her the glory she fought for, she should have been under the shadow of her father, and became the most noble woman in this Dayan except for the princess, and her life was smooth and happy.
But now?
was kept as a private property in another village, and was bent on being beaten and killed for his sister Qihe.
Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun'en, she should suffer for life?
