Chapter 10: The Cuckoo's Life Story
Chapter X
Hearing this, Du Juan suddenly stopped practicing and looked at Qi Liyun in surprise.
Qi Liyun was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained:
"I heard that the last successor of Ning Xiangdu's kung fu was the wife of General Yanheng of Xishu. ”
"But as far as I know, General Yan's wife has been killed with her husband in the Battle of Chishui, and Ning Xiangduan has been lost. ”
Hearing Qi Liyun's words, Du Juan sat back at the stone table without saying a word, looking ahead with empty eyes, and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, I finally heard the cuckoo speak.
"My mother didn't actually die with my father. ”
Hearing this, Qi Liyun was really shocked, could it be that she really guessed it?
As if seeing through Qi Liyun's thoughts, Du Juan nodded and continued:
"At the time of the Battle of Chishui, my mother was already pregnant with me. ”
"My father, that is, General Yan Heng of Xishu, saw that the defeat was decided, so he forced him to die and let my mother run first. ”
"In order to avoid the pursuers of Daliang, my mother fled incognito for several months, until she gave birth to me, and then she was forced to change her name and live in a village. ”
"My mother named me Yan Chi, which means that I should not forget the battle of Chishui and avenge my father. ”
Hearing this, Qi Liyun couldn't help but be moved by Du Juan's mother.
Giving birth to a cuckoo at such a difficult time, it is hard to imagine how much this mother suffered.
"Then how is your mother now, and why are you working as a maid in the Lin Mansion?"
Thinking of her mother, the cuckoo couldn't help but feel sad, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said softly:
"Ning Xiang is a kung fu that hurts the enemy a thousand and self-inflicts eight hundred, and after my mother gave birth to me, there was no good environment to recuperate, so I fell seriously ill and died when I was six years old. ”
"For as long as I can remember, my mother has taught me to make incense decisions and tell me my father's story. So after my mother died, I came to this Jingbei City alone, wanting to wait for an opportunity to take revenge. ”
"But I'm too young, not only my age, but more importantly, my martial arts, let alone revenge, it's difficult to even survive in Jingbei City. ”
"At that time, Childe appeared and brought me back to the Lin Mansion. ”
"So you've been working as a maid in the Lin Mansion for so many years?"
Hearing Qi Liyun's question, Du Juan shook his head.
"Actually, at first, Childe just looked at me pitiful and wanted to help me, and by the way, he found a playmate for his sister, and I just wanted to solve the temporary food and clothing. ”
"But later, I learned that this was Lin Weige's home. ”
"In the story my mother told me, although the biggest enemies are Jiang Fengyang and Emperor Daliang, Lin Weige is also a person who aids and abuses, so I stayed and prepared to start with Lin Weige first. ”
Hearing this, Qi Liyun couldn't help but sigh a little, it was sad and lamentable, such a young girl stepped into this sinister river and lake because of hatred.
Qi Liyun, who felt that the atmosphere was too sad, wanted to say something to relieve it, and after thinking about it for a long time, she said half-jokingly:
"If Lin Anyan knew, he would definitely regret bringing you back. ”
Who knew that after hearing this, Du Juan shook his head firmly, and said something that Qi Liyun couldn't think of.
"Childe said that he never regretted saving me back. ”
Hearing this, Qi Liyun's eyes widened, and he asked incredulously:
"What do you mean by this? Lin Anyan knows your identity and thoughts?"
The cuckoo looked at Qi Liyun like a fool.
"Nonsense, everyone in the Lin Mansion knows my background, if this is a secret, how can I tell an outsider so casually. ”
Seeing that Qi Liyun still seemed puzzled, Du Juan said helplessly:
"I've been in the Lin Mansion for almost thirteen years, and I've tried to assassinate the master countless times. It's just that Butler Zhang is so powerful that he knocks me away every time. ”
Hearing this, Qi Liyun was stupid.
Lin Anyan, who knew that the girl was going to kill her father and stayed by her side as a maid, was assassinated countless times and still let the killer be by her side.
What are the wonders of both father and son?
Suddenly, Qi Liyun saw that what was on the cuckoo's head was the hairpin inlaid with precious blood jade last night.
So how could a valuable hairpin be given to a maid?
Qi Liyun originally thought that there was something special about Lin Anyan, but now it seems that this girl is indeed special.
That Lin Anyan must have wanted to use gold, silver and jewelry to confuse Du Juan's heart, so that she could forget the hatred of the country and the family, and be a maid with peace of mind.
However, when Qi Liyun said this idea, he was immediately denied by Du Juan.
I saw her carefully pull out the hairpin from her head, put it in her hand and stroked it gently, and said with a smile:
"This hairpin was my birthday when I was fifteen years old, and my son gave me a coming-of-age gift. ”
After speaking, for fear that Qi Liyun would not believe it, Du Juan also added:
"The sisters of Baihualou have it. ”
"Baihualou?"
"Well, Baihualou is where Childe lives, it is a two-story small building, Childe lives on the first floor on weekdays, and the second floor with better light has been changed into four small rooms for our four sisters to live in. ”
Hearing that Lin Anyan had three maids, Qi Liyun couldn't help but be a little curious.
"What's the matter, the other three are also here to seek revenge on Lin Weige?"
Hearing this question, Du Juan glanced at Qi Liyun again.
"I said sister, are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid, how many enemies are collecting it for your son. It's just that they're all hard-working girls like me, who were rescued by their sons since they were children. ”
As he spoke, the cuckoo patted his chest like the head of the family and said:
"It's all mixed with this girl, I have the opportunity to introduce it to you, tell you, it's all more beautiful than you, don't have any crooked thoughts about the son, save yourself from hurting your self-esteem when the time comes. ”
Hearing this, a woman's natural dissatisfaction rose in Qi Liyun's heart.
I saw that she gently took off the veil that she had been wearing on her face since she entered Jingbei City, looked at the cuckoo proudly and asked:
"How's that? Are they all prettier than me?"
The cuckoo, who saw Qi Liyun's true appearance for the first time, was speechless in shock at the moment.
has lived in Jingbei City for more than ten years, and the eldest ladies of the famous nobles she boasted of seeing were not 1,000 but 800.
There are also countless warblers and swallows around those rich sons.
Yet of all the women she had ever seen, there had never been a face so beautiful.
In an instant, Du Juan, who is a woman, even somewhat understood why those women in the history books could bring disaster to the country.
"It's bad, it's bad, Gongzi wants to walk with this kind of woman for a long time, wouldn't he be caught in the net. ”
Where did Qi Liyun know what Du Juan was thinking, she looked at the table, there were still some crab roe dumplings that she was reluctant to eat just now, thought about it, and handed them to Du Juan.
I don't know if it was because of Du Juan's experience that moved her, Qi Liyun at this moment just wanted to repair the tense relationship between the two.
However, the cuckoo waved her hand and rejected her.
"This is what the master specially asked the kitchen to make for you, I can't eat it. But I guess Childe has it there. ”
"Childe requested that all the meals in Baihualou be served for five people, so I can eat them when I go back. ”
After that, the cuckoo looked at the sky, and the sun had risen above the eaves, and estimated that the hour had passed.
"You eat first, and I'm going back shopping with my sisters." Childe is going to travel far away, and we have to prepare things for him. ”
Qi Liyun looked at the crab roe cage that was still warm on the plate, and then looked at the cuckoo that had run away, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Lin Anyan, what kind of person are you?"
"Ahh
Lin Anyan, who was walking on the road, suddenly sneezed a few times.
Enyi, who was on the side, saw it, and hurriedly came up and patted Lin Anyan's back, and said while patting:
"Are you cold or something? Do you want to rest for a few days before leaving?"
This is the first time Enyi has seen this sweetheart since Lin Anyan was injured.
In fact, she had long known the news that Lin Anyan was seriously injured and in a coma, after all, as the eldest son of the first merchant of Daliang, every word and deed would be passed on by the people.
How desperately she wanted to rush to the Lin Mansion at that time, rush into Lin Anyan's room, and stay by his side.
But she can't do it, she's a Qinglou woman.
Walking out of the three-story building of Hanyue Tower, she is the dirtiest and most spurned woman in the world.
A woman like her, even if she just stood at the door of the Lin Mansion, was a stain on this kind of famous nobleman.
So when Lin Anyan appeared in Hanyue Tower early this morning, how happy she was, she thought that he could finally return to his side.
However, as soon as Lin Anyan opened her mouth, she told her the news that she was about to leave again.
Although at this time, Lin Anyan was taking her to walk on the most prosperous streets in Jingbei City, selecting those that made countless women obsessed and crazy, the best rouge gouache and brocade clothes in Jingbei City.
But her heart was like falling into an ice cave.
If she could, she wished he could stay, even if it was just for a few days, as long as she could be with him.
Lin Anyan naturally knew Enyi's careful thoughts.
But as soon as he thought of returning from school, he would be able to know all the secrets of the Lin family, and Lin Anyan naturally wanted to leave early, go early and return early.
I saw him smile and say:
"It is estimated that someone is reading bad words about the master behind his back, Hua Lao Bustard is the biggest suspect, when the master went to Hanyue Tower to find you this morning, he woke her up. ”
As she spoke, Lin Anyan stretched out her hand, pulled the ends of Enyi's sideburns, and then gently kissed her forehead in public.
Enyi felt that Lin Anyan finished kissing, and hurriedly pushed him away, complaining:
"What are you doing? So many people are watching, you treat me as that slutty woman, can you play with me at will?"
Seeing that Enyi seemed to be a little angry, Lin Anyan not only did not panic, but suddenly raised her voice and said loudly in a volume that everyone around her could hear:
"Master, I just want to kiss you on the street, just to let everyone see it, and I want the entire Jingbei City to know that you are my Lin Anyan's woman. ”
Enyi knew that Lin Anyan was shameless, but she never thought that he would be so shameless.
In broad daylight, in front of people on the street, she said such things that made her ashamed and happy.
Enyi's little face was like fire in an instant, and the little pink fist gently hammered Lin Anyan, and then hurriedly ran away, and Lin Anyan naturally chased after her.
Only a group of passers-by who were afraid and hated of the "King of Lin Yan" were left, secretly laughing at this gentleman.
However, in the corner where no one noticed, there was a person with his eyes closed, facing in the direction where Lin Anyan was running, with a serious expression.
