After a busy day, Miss Lin Si finally got home. +++All Tanmei novels: EbookFREE.me took a bath under the service of the maid, and dispelled a little boredom, came to the bookshelf habitually, and pulled out the book that was only half read last night Sitting at the table, I picked up the round scissors on the table and cut the wick, and read it.
After reading two pages, Lin Buxian felt a flower in front of him, and closed his eyes anxiously to hold his forehead, only to feel that he was on top of a boat, and the boat was wavering on all sides.
Even the door of the bedroom was opened without noticing it. As soon as the maid Yuyi walked shattered steps to Lin Buxian's side, she slapped a blessing and whispered, "Miss, there is a letter from Beijing." He took out an envelope and held it in front of Lin Buxian with both hands.
When the dizziness subsided, Lin Buxian opened her eyes. She has always been such a forbearing (sexual xing) child. Even if she occasionally gets sick, she won’t be able to say it easily until it is unbearable. This Habits have been around since Lin Buxian was sensible.
The three-generation Lin Mansion, which was at its peak, now fell on Lin Buxian alone, and those slender willows carried the rise and fall of Lin Mansion.
Lin Buxian thought, it was probably because the shopkeepers from various shops in Los Angeles had just entered the mansion a while ago, and today they visited all the shops in the city, and felt a little tired from the bumps all day.
Hearing Yuyi's voice, Lin Buxian took the catkin on his forehead and took the envelope. In the middle of the envelope was the six characters of dragon, phoenix and phoenix: Miss Lin Si Fangqi, and the seal was intact.
Lin Buxian tore the envelope and took out the letter. He held it for a few moments. There was a moment of silence. Then he folded the letter paper. He didn't put it in the wooden box as usual. He just put it on the table and watched. The little candlelight in front of me was fascinated.
The letter, of course, was sent by Zhong Xiaoting. The letter said that he had lived up to the expectations (killing sha), and he was going to take part in the final palace exam soon to win the title of the gold list. He hoped to return home as soon as possible to fulfill his promise.
Miss Lin Si was still silent for a long time, and asked in a low voice, "Yuyi, what month is it today?"
You Yi covered her lips and chuckled, and replied, "Isn't Miss busy being confused? Today is our routine day to find shops, looking forward to the sun."
"Oh, May?"
"Yes."
Lin Buxian let out a barely audible sigh and murmured, "Yes, Chunwei opens in April, so it's time to count the days..."
Yu Yi went to Lin Buxian's side and added a cup of hot tea for Lin Buxian, and asked, "Miss, what does Zhong Gongzi's letter say? But is there good news?"
"Well, I said that I took the top sixty, and I will participate in the palace exam soon."
"Great! The slaves knew that Master Zhong would definitely be able to get into high school!" Hearing Zhong Xiaoting's results, Yu Yi was more excited than Miss Lin Si.
Lin Buxian did not say a word, picked up the letter paper on the table, got up and walked to the shelf, and put the letter in a wooden box.
Youyi is a family-born son. She has served with Miss Lin Si since she was a child. There is not much scrupulousness between the master and servant. Suo (sexual xing) chases to Lin Buxian's side and asks cheerfully: "Miss, Master Zhong can have Say when will he be back? When will you invite someone to the residence?"
Lin Buxian just turned his head and glanced at Yuyi, who silenced the voice. Lin Buxian's eyes were too deep, and there was no ripple in sight.
Yui whispered: "Miss, what's the matter with you?"
"Xu got up early this morning and went to find the shop. I was a little tired. Let's go (sleep Shui)."
"Yes, the maidservant serves you to lie down."
Lin Buxian, served by Yu Yi, lay down, turned off the light and retreated to the penthouse. The boudoir was dark, and the air was filled with the elegant scent of soothing incense. This kind of incense is imported from the Gentiles and has the best soothing effect. This time, Lin Buxian couldn't sleep (sleeping Shui).
After a busy day, her body is extremely exhausted, but there is a sense of irritability inexplicably coming out of her heart, like smoke and fog, haunting her mind.
No matter how deep the concentration of Miss Lin Si is, she will never be able to hold it down or disperse.
A few days later, it will be Miss Lin Si's double tenth birthday. She is an old girl who cannot be married at this age in the country of Yan.
Miss Lin Si is the only child of the Lin Family, and the marriage event (guanguan) is the continuation of the clan, and naturally she cares about it, but...
Seeing that this day was approaching, Lin Buxian was not happy.
Miss Lin Si, who has always been smart, can't figure out where this irritation comes from, maybe... it's the state of mind that every woman who is about to leave the cabinet will experience.
Women always marry, don't they?
Since ancient times, marriage events have been the words of the matchmaker. How many (female nu) children can only see their husband's true face on the wedding night, but they can first observe his appearance and know his character, which is considered lucky.
Lin Buxian didn't want to think deeply, (强qiang) forced himself to think about other things, thinking about the account book, thinking about the shop... Suddenly, a cold light flashed across Lin Buxian's mind, and the sound of the sword being unsheathed echoed in his ears.
Lin Buxian asked herself to have seen many treasures, the sword in the pawnshop today... it was the first time she had seen it.
The beggar who flashed through the day in Lin Buxian’s mind was really unable to connect this magical soldier with that beggar, so even if the magical soldier is not the heirloom of the family, it is definitely not something ordinary people can have. Miss Lin Si couldn't help being a little curious, what kind of experience was it that made a family prince down here?
…
On the other side, Yunan who hung on the tree branch gave a "tsk" and opened his eyes suddenly. The noisy "buzzing" sound made Yun'an hard to sleep.
"Damn the mosquito!" Yun An irritably rubbed his loose long hair, opened the space, took out a bottle of highly concentrated special insect repellent (dew), and wiped it on his body.
The mosquitoes here in Yunan are not afraid. It seems that they have eaten too much industrial food. Yun'an has seen the mosquitoes here get poisoned directly after sucking her blood, and the places where they have been bitten have disappeared. package.
If it weren’t for the noisy Yunan (Shui Shui) with the
buzzing
sound, she couldn’t bear to use this bottle. This is a special medicine developed in the laboratory that can disperse all snakes, scorpions, insects and ants. Yunan only brought three bottles.
With one arm resting on his arm, Yun An followed the gap in the lush canopy and looked towards the sky.
Today is fifteen, the moon is like a disc, and the bright moonlight is spreading softly on the ground. Yun'an suddenly feels homesick.
I don’t know if the trust has been established, and has the lives of parents and siblings improved? Did the reporters harass their families again? Are they doing well?
In a blink of an eye, Yunan has been in Yan Country for four months. She has experienced the slow pace of ancient times. If she spends four months at Blue Star, she can do a lot, but here she just walked from a barren mountain to Los Angeles. , I took some material on the road and was forced to be a sword in exchange for a full meal, but I didn’t know what to do in the days after that.
What can I do? Can you redeem the sword without causing the butterfly effect?
Yun'an is in trouble, farming is actually a good choice, but he is a black household and cannot go to the government to do justice, and he cannot buy land at all.
Besides, the harvest period of farming is too long, and the harvest cannot be emergency. Yunan does not want to waste precious crossing experience on farming...
Yun An sighed, turned around and lay on the branches of the tree, with his limbs hanging in the air, and closed his eyes again.
…
In the early morning of the next day, the back door of the Lin Mansion opened, and a man dressed as a Jiading walked out of the horse with a horse. He didn't turn on the horse until he got out of a stone's throw. He flicked the horse several whips and left quickly.
Yunan woke up, jumped down from the tree, took a sip of water by the well, and walked towards East Street after a brief wash.
The early shops on both sides of the street were already open. Yunan came to a noodle shop and paid a deposit of ten copper plates. He asked the boss to make fifty sesame cakes for himself. He also specially ordered that after it was done, he would bake both sides with charcoal fire until When the biscuits hardened, the boss didn't understand but said he would do it.
This is a one-step (tuo) water process, which can extend the shelf life of food. Yun'an plans to hoard a little grain in the space so that it will never starve to death.
Then Yunan came to the cloth shop with a sling of money and picked a khaki (color) coarse cloth ready-to-wear. Ask the guy to wrap it up for himself, take the package out, and ask people on the roadside along the way, and then he came to an inn. , Yunan deliberately took a photo of the signboard of the inn with a camera, and she must recognize some common words as soon as possible.
The guy at the inn saw Yun'an carrying the money string in his hand, and greeted him warmly: "Guest officer, An, are you a top player? Or are you staying in a store?"
"Stay, how much is your room for a night?"
"Hui Keguan, the four upper rooms of Tiandi Xuanhuang are already full. The small shop currently only has a general room. It costs fifty cents a night. It includes breakfast and evening meals. Breakfast is porridge and buns, and dinner is noodles. If you need additional dishes, With a word in advance, the dishes are all hung on it..." The shop second pointed to the bamboo sign on the wall, and continued: "Then the younger one will be sent to your room."
Hearing the price of Yunan, it hurts for a while, but he still handed the skewered Baiwenqian in his hand to Xiaoer of the shop: "Let’s stay for two nights, and get me some (xi) bath water."
"Okay, please, guest officer here."
The guest room is not big, about four or five square meters, one table, one bed, one bench, a screen next to the window, and a bathtub behind.
Half an hour later, Xiao Er from the shop knocked on the door of the guest room with the guy who boiled water and said, "Guest, hot water is coming."
The shopkeeper and the guy each carried a pole, three buckets of hot water and one bucket of cold water. The guy poured two buckets of hot water and one bucket of cold water into the bathtub, put the remaining bucket of hot water on the side of the bathtub, and thoughtfully Put the water scoop in the hot water bucket.
"Thank you."
The boiling water guy stood there and didn't leave, wiped his hands on the apron around his waist, and smiled at Yunan.
The shop assistant smiled and reminded: "Guest officer, the guy who burns the fire doesn't have monthly money. It depends on the customer's reward."
"Sorry, how much do I have to pay?"
"One penny is fine, three or five pennies are fine, it all depends on the mood of the guest official."
Yunan took out the three cents and put it in the hands of the burning man. The latter smiled honestly and thanked him: "Thank you, officer, if the water temperature is uncomfortable, you will pay attention to it next time."
"Go ahead, I'm going to take a (xi) bath."
…
After leaving the door of the guest room, Xiao Er and the guy glanced at each other. They didn't think Yun'an would give a reward. They didn't expect this beggar who talked strangely to be quite moral.
The shopkeeper chuckled, patted his buddy on the shoulder, and said, "Unexpectedly, I had a mischievous day. Three cents is a lot for him."
The guy agreed and left with Xiaoer.
The two did not deceive Yun'an. The guy in the Yanguo Inn who is responsible for boiling (washing xi) bath water does not have a monthly fee and relies on the guests for rewards, but most guests will only give a penny.
Although Yun'an is poor, she respects and affirms the results of other people's labor. She thinks she should give these three cents.
Locked the doors and windows, Yunan (takes off tuo) undressed, closed the half-life bionic skin, leaned in the bathtub, let out a comfortable sigh, took out a towel from the space and soaked it on his face, and the heat followed With the pores digging into the skin, Yunan felt that he would rise to immortality at any time.
She never knew that (washing xi) a bath was such a luxury and refreshing thing.
On the other side, a group of family-dressed people have surrounded the inn, seemingly waiting for someone.
Xiao Er also noticed the anomaly, and came to the leader Ding with a smile, and asked, "Master, the little one dares to ask, why surround the store?"
"Go, go, take care of your business, it's none of your business."
Seeing that the materials on the family members were expensive, the shopkeeper knew that these family members were servants of the big family, so they didn't dare to offend and bowed down.
Jia Ding stopped the shop second and asked, "I ask you, is there a beggar living in your shop?"
"Yes, there is such a person who just moved in, how many masters are this...?"
"Shut your mouth tightly. If you let go, take care of your skin!"
"Yes, yes, the little one understands, the little one understands."
