Xu: Everyone in the world has affection, and everything is empty.

Tick...... Tick, tick...... Tick-tock, the rain between the cliffs fell on his shabby clothes, and his hair was scattered over his shoulders so that it was impossible to see his appearance.

"Have you thought about it?" asked the woman in white shirt casually as she fiddled with the incense fan in her hand.

"After all these years, she probably won't recognize me anymore, huh...... Hehe, why bother yourself. The man laughed and said, his hoarse voice mixed with the crow of the cliff and looked particularly desolate.

"Well, after so many years, you've been in this cliff for some years. The woman's incense fan waved the chain tied to the man's body and fell, stumbling down the cliff. The man was about to fall off the cliff because he had been tied up for too long, when suddenly a large bird flew over and carried him on his back.

A gust of wind blew, the blood and bone flowers between the cliffs swayed gently, and the woman in white jumped into the air.

"Snow Heron, carry him and follow me. The woman's soft voice came again. The snow heron seemed to have heard the master's order, and followed behind the woman in white with a weak person on her back.

"Take him off and throw him into the medicine pool. The woman landed next to a medicine pool, lying on the rock next to heron, in a lazy and enchanting posture, looking at the person on the back of the snow heron and saying, her eyes revealing a hint of playfulness. After hearing the woman's words, the snow heron shook off the man on her body, and was about to use her mouth to pull the man's clothes but was stopped by the man.

"Don't bother, I'll do it myself. The man was a little embarrassed to let a bird undress him, and there was a woman next to him looking at him, which made his pale face instantly have a hint of redness, and the smile on the corner of the woman's mouth deepened when she saw the man's reaction: "Why, it's still shy." ”

The woman shook the incense fan in her hand and looked at the helpless man in front of her. "The girl laughed, what should I be shy about a dying man." The man's eyes were more indifferent, and he said in a light tone.

"Hahahaha, I won't tease you, you just soak here first, and Sister Xi will come to see you in three hours. ”

After the woman finished speaking, she got up and left, and the snow heron looked at the man who had taken off half of his clothes, and followed the woman in white out of the medicine pool.

"How is he?" A woman in the room was lying on a chaise longue, holding a large snowball in her hand, and when she heard her master's voice, the big snowball's head moved, but she never poked her head out. The woman smiled softly, and the tiger touched the snowball in her arms.

"When I rescued him, he was already dying, and I don't know where he came from, but the stubborn donkey still refuses to agree to my sister after so many years. The woman in white said helplessly.

The woman in the chaise longue slowly got up and put the snowball in her arms on the chair, which turned out to be a white ferret, which looked very cute.

The ferret yawned and continued to sleep in the chaise longue. "Don't worry, I have my own way to get him to agree. ”

There are many blood bone flowers blooming by the medicine pool, the petals dance gently with the cool breeze at night, red, dazzling red looks particularly enchanting under the reflection of the moonlight, but in this enchanting there is a little desolation, the night dew falls from the petals, like a bride in tears.

A woman in a red shirt walked slowly among the flowers, her hair was wrapped into a bun and pulled up with a hairpin, a red bone fan was pinned around her waist, and the hollow embroidered shoes on her feet were particularly exquisite.

The man in the medicine pool was closing his eyes and recuperating, not feeling anyone approaching slowly.

"How, have you figured it out all these years?" The woman's voice came and the man opened his eyes incredulously, and what greeted him was her more and more beautiful, and his eyes were less miserable than before, and more indifferent and calm.

The man was stunned for a few seconds, and then slowly spoke, "You know, I will never be a slave. ”

"You ruined your throat with that hot iron for her, just because she said that your voice was unique and she loved it very much, and it was really infatuated. ”

The woman squatted down and gently stroked the blood bone flower next to the medicine pool with her slender fingers, her eyes were all gentle, but the next second, the hand that was still stroking the blood bone flower had pinched the man's chin, and the speed was so fast that the man in the pool had no time to react.

"But you said that you want to make a deal with me in exchange for her prosperity for a lifetime," the strength in the woman's hand was a little heavier and continued, "Do you know that my empty Yinzhuang has always only collected voices, and you have destroyed your own voice, but you still remember the agreement with me." ”

"I love her but I can't give her anything, that's all I can give her. The man's eyes were full of loneliness, and he spoke helplessly. "And what do you owe me?" The woman got up and pulled out the bone fan around her waist, opened the bone fan and fanned it to her chest, this bone fan was extremely delicate, and the broken patterns on the surface of the fan were all re-embroidered with golden silk threads, and the gold and red complemented each other, which was particularly beautiful.

Shaking his head, he continued, "I'll take you to a place, and if you're still so obsessed, you'll go back to your cliffs. ”

As soon as the words fell, the bone fan in the woman's hand waved towards the medicine pool, and the man got dressed and stood among the flowers next to the medicine pool.

"Master, sir, listen to my explanation. Master, master, the concubine body was not poisoned in the child's medicine, master, you believe me. A beautiful woman at the gate of Mu Mansion took a man's hand and said, "The concubine has worked hard all these years, served her in-laws, and regarded her two children as her own, how could she poison her son's medicine." ”

"It's not that the husband doesn't believe you, it's that all the unfavorable evidence points to you, madam, you go to Longshang to live for a few days, and then come back when your mother's anger is gone, and the husband will collect evidence for you in the house to prove your innocence. The man's hand took the woman's hand and patted it, and he said reluctantly.

The woman had tears in her eyes, although she was unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it, "The concubine is just not willing to give up her husband." "The woman I saw that my husband could not bear to send her to Longshang, but he had to do so on his mother's order, and the man sighed and let go of the woman's hand and walked towards the house.

"Husband. The woman took the handkerchief and wiped her tears silently, and when she saw that her husband had entered the house, she reluctantly got into the carriage. "What's the matter, she's been wronged. Sin said anxiously. "You're so sure she's been wronged?"

Gu Xi asked rhetorically with some displeasure. "Well, I know who she is, and she would never do such a thing. Sin said unintentionally.

Gu Xi no longer entangled with him, whether this matter was true or not, but proposed to go to Longshang to have a look, Sin Wuxin was a little reluctant before, on the one hand, because he was afraid that Tian Qiu would forget him, and on the other hand, he was afraid that he would disturb her life, but he couldn't suppress the thoughts of Tian Qiu in his heart, so he agreed.

"Madame, here we are". The housekeeper reminded the woman sitting in the carriage, and the woman inside lifted the curtain on the carriage with her hand and looked inside, and the good-looking Xiumei couldn't help frowning, and said to the housekeeper on the side with some embarrassment, "Butler, do we live here?"

"Yes, ma'am, this is where the old man and the old lady used to live. The old man originally proposed to repair the old house, but the old lady did not let him, saying that he could not forget his roots and the hard days he had before, and he came back from time to time to live for two days. ”

As he spoke, the butler brought the lady in the carriage a stool to get out of the carriage. Although Tian Qiu was unhappy in his heart, when he heard the housekeeper say this, he immediately echoed: "The old lady is right. As he spoke, he got out of the carriage with the support of the butler, "Madame is here, I am the housekeeper here, Madame can call me Ayun." ”

At this time, an old woman came from the flower garden next to her, and said respectfully. Tian Qiu looked at the old woman, with a hint of concern in her eyes, although this grandmother looked old, her words and deeds were decent and generous, and her temperament was extraordinary, and she must have been a beauty when she was young.

"What's the matter with the scar on Mama's forehead?" Over the years, Ah Yun has used a lot of god-level elixirs to gradually fade this scar, if you don't look closely, you really can't see it, but unfortunately it still can't escape Tianqiu's eyes.

A Yun's eyes flashed with a trace of complicated emotions, and then he returned to calm, and said lightly: "I was accidentally injured, Madame should come into the house and take a look." ”

Ah Yun said and led the group to the inner courtyard. This old house has two yards, an inner courtyard and an outer courtyard, and the outer courtyard has some sundries and firewood. The inner courtyard is where you live, and there are three rooms in the inner courtyard.

"Madame, there are three rooms here, one of which is for the old lady, and one for the old man, and the small one is the kitchen. Yun pointed to the kitchen and said to Tianqiu.

"Take me to the master's room. Tian Qiu looked around, his eyes were fixed and said gently.

"Madame comes with me. Ah Yun came to the door of the master's room as he spoke, and when he opened the door, a faint fragrance of wormwood came to his face, and Tian Qiu's face changed instantly, and his heart was full of doubts.

couldn't help but ask Ah Yun: "Mama, what's going on with this wormwood fragrance?"

"The lord has always liked wormwood, so I will smoke wormwood in the lord's room for a day or two every month, and after a long time, there is a faint fragrance of wormwood in this room. ”

"Does the master like wormwood?" Tianqiu's doubts in her heart became deeper and deeper, she still remembered that once she and the old man went to the Lantern Festival in the street market, a little girl who sold sachets had to ask Tianqiu to buy a wormwood-flavored sachet, the sachet was very delicate, especially the red flowers embroidered on the sachet, which was charming and moving, and people couldn't take their eyes off it, and Tianqiu wanted it very much, but was stopped by her husband, because the old man told her that he didn't like the taste of wormwood.

"Yes, ma'am, my lord is very fond of wormwood. ”

Ah Yun didn't know the situation in the house in the past ten years, but he thought that Tian Qiu was not very familiar with the master's preferences, so he didn't react immediately, and said affirmatively.

Tian Qiu didn't ask any more questions, and followed Ah Yun into the room.

The room was simply furnished and clean, with a wooden bed with navy blue curtains, a desk with pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and a table for eating and drinking.

"Madame, sit down. Ah Yun pulled out the stool under the table and said to Tian Qiu.

Tian Qiu swept the stool that Ah Yun pulled out with the silk handkerchief in his hand, turned around and sat down, at this time the housekeeper outside the house walked in, bent down and said to Tian Qiu: "Madam, the hour is not early, the old slave is going back to the house on an errand, Madame, and stay here for two days, and the master will come to pick you up in person at that time." ”

"The housekeeper went back and told Sui'er to cooperate with the investigation. "As he spoke, he stood up from his stool," said the butler, taking a step. ”

Tian Qiu walked out of the room, and the housekeeper followed behind Tian Qiu, "Sui'er is my personal maid, I have treated her like a sister over the years, and the housekeeper has helped her more in the house, don't let her suffer any grievances, her body can't withstand the punishment." As he spoke, he took out a jade bracelet from his sleeve and stuffed it into the butler's hand.

"This, this, this can't be helped, even if Mrs. doesn't confess, the old slave will look at Sui'er's girl, that girl, kind-hearted, the old slave has always regarded her as a daughter. The housekeeper returned the bracelet to Tian Qiu, "Madame cherished it, and the old slave retired." With that, he withdrew from the courtyard.
