Alternate Performances of the East Palace, Section 12

He knew what he was going to say, but he still pretended to be ignorant on his face, "Uncle has anything else to order?" โ€

Chi Licheng glanced at Mingyue, who immediately blessed himself and retreated.

Chi Licheng sighed, raised his hand and touched the top of Chi's head, but he really looked like a loving father: "When there are only you and my father and daughter, you don't have to be stubborn." โ€

He didn't speak, and he continued, "Over the years, Shadow has taught you well. Father knows that it is always you who has wronged you. โ€

Zhichi slowly shook his head, sneered in his heart, but when he raised his eyes, his eyes were moist: "My father has my father's difficulties, and I am not wronged." โ€

"Pool." Chi Licheng sighed, "This name is also good." However, the name that my father chose for you back then, called Qingyi, Chi Qingyi. โ€

He looked at the chi, as if he really couldn't help himself, but he felt guilty about his daughter's generous father, "Although I have taken you back to the capital and returned home, there are still many inconveniences." In a few days, the father will let you come back in the name of Chi Qingyi in a dignified and real way. โ€

Chi Licheng stepped forward and hugged her.

Chi choked up and whispered "Daddy". is just a sound, but it seems to hide thousands of grievances that want to be said and stopped, and it is moving to listen to it.

Only looked at the pair of eyes behind Chi Licheng, there was no sadness or joy.

Ji Licheng was so busy that he didn't notice that she took the opportunity to take half a step back from him.

After talking around for a long time, he finally got down to business and said, "Since your foot injury is healed, you don't have to be confined to this courtyard, and you can go out for a walk on weekdays." โ€

"Your mother was famous in the capital back then, and you were trained by her own hands, and you just danced, and it was really a victory. Shadow can't dance anymore, but it's a pity that your dancing skills are wasted. You may not know that the Moon Capture Fang in Beijing is a dance workshop such as the Great Monday, if you are free, you might as well go and have a look. It's not like burying your mother's hard work over the years. โ€

Chi Licheng looked at the chi, and saw that she was as he expected, her eyes were full of admiration, and he nodded obediently, and responded, "But with his father's arrangement", his heart can be regarded as completely down-to-earth.

The author has something to say:

Thank you to the little angel who voted for me during 2023-06-29 17:40:45~2023-06-30 17:32:50~

Thanks to the little angel who irrigated the nutrient solution: 10 bottles under the Jialing River;

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!

Chapter 12

โ—Ž Is it that she is not natural enough to make him suspicious? โ—Ž

"What else is missing in your room?" Chi Licheng looked around, "How about a Bogu frame here?" โ€

Hearing this, Chi Chi's heart moved-taking advantage of this time, Chi Licheng responded to her needs, so it was better to ask someone else.

She shook her head slowly, "Sister Mingyue has worked hard enough to take care of me on weekdays, and adding more things will tire her." โ€

Chi Licheng frowned when he heard this, "Mingyue is just a maid, since she has pointed it out to you, she will send it whatever you want." As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered that Mingyue was specially pointed out to the title pool by Ruize, and the title pool was weak, and it was common for him not to dare to use Mingyue on weekdays.

The situation of the pond is special, and the fewer people left around, the better, but I didn't want to give this maid a habit of being a slave.

Chi Licheng sighed, he knew that Mingyue was placed by Zhichi's side, so that he could monitor her every move in time, but ...... The people around Ruize are all like people, and with the temperament of the pool, I am afraid that they will not be able to discipline them, and they will have to be tortured by their subordinates.

Chi Licheng patted her shoulder, "At the beginning, I only gave you Mingyue, because I was afraid that you would be uncomfortable if there were too many people, but now it seems that there are a lot of chores in this courtyard, and tomorrow you will pick a maid who fits your eyes to come in and serve." โ€

Zhichi's eyes lit up with a little joy, like a child who has been valued by his father: "Thank you, Daddy." โ€

Chi Licheng was really useful, waved his hand, and then walked out of the courtyard.

Zhichi sent him away with a smile, but after his figure disappeared, his face turned cold, and he slapped his shoulder a few times, only to remember that he had just hugged himself, closed his eyes and let out a sigh, and got up to change a set of clothes.

The emotions of these performances, the tricks that can't be on the stage but can grasp people's hearts, are all what they forced her to learn at that time.

She knew she was learning well.

Before the window could close, a bird chirped and fell, tilting its head through the gap in the lattice. The sky is getting dark, and the heavy twilight is cut by the window lattice, and the light and dark light and shadow are mottled and uneven on the gray floor tiles.

The sparrow jumped twice, flapped its wings and flew away.

He took a piece of candied fruit and put it in his mouth.

It's a preserved apricot, wrapped in a layer of frosting on the outside, and when the frosting melts for a while, the inside is still astringent.

Mingyue only came back at dinner time.

The people in the kitchen lined up the dinner on the table, and as soon as he picked up the chopsticks, he saw Mingyue slowly walking in, his movements were extremely unnatural, and his lips were pale.

She put her chopsticks aside, "Mingyue? You're ......."

Mingyue shook her head, smiled reluctantly, and even her tone was a lot more regular, "The slave maid serves the young lady's meal." โ€

She limped over, and Chi Chi sighed in her heart, the county lord of Ruize was not light this time-maybe she added the fire to Chi Licheng, and it was too prosperous.

On weekdays, there is no habit of letting Mingyue stand beside her to distribute vegetables, and she refuses to let her go down to rest, the two of them sit and stand, one is silent, the other is quietly eating, and there is only the slight sound of dishes and chopsticks in the room for a while.

Mingyue lasted until nightfall, made the bed, and then withdrew from the house.

Mingyue was scolded by the cane, afraid that she had not served well in the past few days, so on the second day, Steward Liu brought a few maids to pick the ranks.

I looked at them one by one, but I didn't say whether it was good or bad, but on a whim, I said that I wanted to go to the kitchen to have a look.

The servants and maids of the Chi family are accustomed to worshipping high and low, and with the experience of Mingyue's past, they are polite to the little-known cousin girl of the Chi.

When the kitchen broke, the cook was reprimanding the little girl who was squatting on the ground to wipe the dishes: "Let you wash the dishes, you still broke two, what's the matter, I thought I ate too much yesterday?" If you dare to smash another bowl today, don't even think about eating for the next three days! โ€

The maid was dressed in coarse linen clothes, and her hands had been soaked in cold water for a long time, and she was so red from the cold that she couldn't even hold the bowl steadily. There was still a thick piece of furnace ash on one cheek, and he was not annoyed when he was scolded, but he was more careful in his hand - the appearance was worse than when he saw her in the previous life.

In the last life, after she left the East Palace and returned to the Chi family, the Chi family's mind was no longer on her, so the county lord of Ruize casually pointed out a rough maidservant who was doing chores in the kitchen to her.

That's how Qing Dai came to serve her. She doesn't know anything about her young lady's past, but she is simple-minded, and those who have identified it will follow her to the end, and after coming to her, she does think about her in everything.

Mingyue was arranged by the county lord, and she couldn't use it and couldn't get rid of it. But there must always be someone around who can be trusted with confidence, otherwise even if he enters the East Palace, he will lose control of the Chi family.

Rank Chi pointed at Qing Dai, "She's the same age as me, and she looks right, so it's just her." โ€

Steward Liu's face was embarrassed, "This girl is grinding and not smart......"

I have been working in the Chi family for a few years, but I can still only do chores in the kitchen, and I am not angry when I am bullied, and I am even more suspicious.

Zhichi blinked, "Uncle said yesterday that let me pick a suitable eye, after all, Sister Mingyue is always in charge of major events." โ€

Steward Liu was silent, but he felt that what she said was also good. The cousin girl is just a child's heart, and when she can't see that people are bullied in vain, she asks people to leave. What's more, if she picks a stupid one, he would be better off reporting to the county lord.

The cook noticed the movement here, hurriedly greeted her, wiped her hands on her apron, and said with a sneer: "Why did the cousin come in person?" But the food delivered doesn't fit well? โ€

Zhichi shook his head and looked at Qing Dai, who was only concerned about washing the dishes and chopsticks, "Come and ask for someone." โ€

She lowered her head and smiled at the little maid squatting on the ground, "Would you like to come to me?" โ€

Qingdai looked up, stunned in place.

She had never seen such a good-looking person. It is like the delicate red peony medicine on the side of the courtyard wall, the eyebrows are picturesque, but there is no gaudy vulgarity, and the slightly raised eyes are like two cold pools that are crystal clear, but the coldness in her eyes is all melted in that smile, and the soul is seduced.

She was distracted, and the chichi didn't make a sound, just smiled at her.

Qing Dai's face was flushed, and she couldn't speak for a long time, only nodding desperately.

Zhichi pushed the pot of chopsticks away, stood up, and looked at Steward Liu: "I'll take the people away, then this bowl of chopsticks ......"

Steward Liu understood, pointed to the dishes and chopsticks on the ground, and then looked at the cook: "Sun Niang, these, wash them up." Don't miss the time for dinner, if you do, you won't have to eat dinner. โ€

When Qing Dai was led into the courtyard of the leading pool, people were still confused.

She only knew that when she came to serve her cousin, not only did her monthly income increase, but she would no longer work day and night in the kitchen.

The monthly money has risen, and the life of my mother and sister will be better.

Not long after Chi brought Qing Dai back, Chi Licheng came to visit, shh

The same is true in the previous life, first day by day, as if it were a little bit of a thing, and then, after they had a showdown with her, they simply let her live directly in the Moon Snatching Fang.

Kind of expected.

It's just that after living in the Moon Snatching Fang, you can't go to your mother every day to rely on everything like now.

There is very little time she can see her mother.

Zhichi took a deep breath and comforted herself, after surviving the past few years and finding a way out, she would be able to take her mother away.

In the trajectory that is the same as in her previous life, the only variable that appears is the person who sent her to the Moon Capture Fang - in the previous life, Chi Licheng just arranged a trustworthy little guy to pick her up every day.

And now......

He looked at Shen Che, who was wearing a hat in front of him, and was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but ask him, "Ah Che, have you been idle these days?" โ€

Ji Chi lifted the curtain of the car with one hand and looked at the hand that Shen Che was sitting in it stretched out to her. She clenched her hand at the curtain for a moment, and then she naturally put her other hand on it, let him pull it, and pulled herself into the carriage.

The pool sat down, the heavy windshield curtain was lowered, and the carriage creaked forward slowly, and the half-old tassels on the curtain swayed.

Shen Che took off his hat, and then opened his mouth to answer the casual question she asked before she came up, "How can you be idle if you are so busy that your feet don't touch the ground?" โ€

The carriage that picked her up couldn't be too eye-catching, so it was inevitably a little narrower, and the two of them were sitting opposite each other, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw a faint dark blue under his eyes.

There was a bit of tiredness between his eyebrows, which dissipated the sense of alienation in the past, and made people relax a lot in front of him.

I don't think it fits my eyes very well.

It was rare for him to see him like this, so he couldn't help but ask, "Don't you rest?" โ€

No wonder he didn't personally send her at this time in his previous life. However, since they are all so sleepy, why does he have to watch it in person now?

Did she not do it naturally enough to make him suspicious?

"You want to rest, so I'm here to see you off." He looked at the rank pool and laughed, and the remaining three points of coldness also collapsed, showing an overly gentle undertone.

He looked away, and pinched himself with his hands folded on his lap, "There should still be a way, you can take care of yourself for a while." โ€

Shen Che leaned back against the side wall of the carriage and looked at her.

She shook her hairpin today, hanging the beads and holding the begonias, and when the carriage was bumped, the beads trembled as if they would fall.

She shook her hairpin, but it was not the one he gave the โ–กโ–ก day in the carriage, and her eyes were full of surprise and said that she really liked it, and she didn't lie to him.

Shen Che glanced at her meaningfully again, and Fang closed his eyes.

The carriage stopped at the back door of the Moon Trapping Fang, and there were already people waiting in front of the door, and they didn't wait for them to lift the curtain to meet them.

Ji Chi glanced at Shen Che inquiringly, the latter nodded, and she got up, but as soon as her hand touched the curtain, the curtain was lifted from the outside.

She looked up in astonishment, just in time to look into the eyes of the people who came in.

The person who came wore a royal blue ten kinds of brocade makeup outside the skirt, slightly plump, painted on the left shoulder with a branch of red plum, diagonally forked to the chest, the petals half covered and half covered into the placket, so that as soon as the hand was raised, the arm gold on the wrist was half exposed.

When the man saw the chi, he first exclaimed semi-exaggeratedly, and then joked to Shen Che behind him with a smile: "Such a peugeot beauty, are you really willing to send it in?" โ€
