Wanqingsi

Chapter 30
I didn't sleep well that night. I was thinking about how to contact Wei Tongfeng all night. Hongye is often ordered by Master Jiu to come to his house, but it is impossible to rely on Hongye to spread the word. For one thing, I don't want Hongye to be suspicious. Two, I don't want Hongye to be involved, just adding some danger to her.And how I can contact him is still at a loss. Now that I am under Mr. Yu's contract, I can no longer be interested in other men other than him, and offend some dignitaries for no reason.After much deliberation, I couldn't think of a good way. I tossed and turned, didn't fall asleep all night, and fell into a deep sleep at dawn.After sleeping for a while, I heard Xiao Hong calling me to wake me up. It turned out that it was General Ji who sent a message to let me visit his house today.

He hurriedly got up and got ready, changed into a plain skirt, her hair was still untied, and asked Xiaohong to tie a ribbon.Xiao Hong was surprised and said: "Which girl is always well-dressed when she goes to the house, isn't it too simple for a girl? If General Ji thinks that the girl is too negligent, blame her..."

I glanced at her and said with a smile: "Do you know more about the general's preferences, or do I know better?" No one knows that the person I actually went to meet is Mr. Yu. My intuition tells me that this Mr. Yu Should like my outfit today.

I took my guitar out. When I was sick, I asked Mrs. Jin to make a cover for my guitar.In fact, my own handwork is also very good, such as weaving, fabric art, and embroidery.In my previous life, I was good at knitting sweaters. It was not difficult to crochet, knit, or weave. Every time I knit a sweater, my colleagues would try to imitate it. Embroidery does not just refer to cross-stitch, of course cross-stitch is the best embroidery , the most exquisite piece of work is a portrait photo embroidered for myself, which is double-sided embroidery with a length of one meter and a width of [-] centimeters; she can also make beautiful cloth handicrafts, such as dolls and cloth flowers, which can be done every time Let the children of the colleagues who come to my house to play with hold them tightly, and finally have to give them all; clothes can also be cut and sewed by themselves. The most interesting thing is to sew beautiful costumes in girls’ comic books, and I have also participated in comic festivals. Comic character play contest.So basically, I think that I can be regarded as an ingenious woman, and I am suitable to be a good wife and mother. Unfortunately, those men who went on a blind date saw that I had a bucket waist and a fat face.It's not difficult for me to sew a piano cover, but now that I have someone to do it for me and it doesn't cost me, why should I bother with it myself.

When we arrived at the General's Mansion, the General's Mansion was really magnificent, and the servants standing at the door were more powerful than those of other families.Xiaohong went forward to pass the sign, and after a while, an old man who looked like an official came out and said to Xiaohong with a smile: "The general invites Miss Carmen to go in, and Miss Xiaohong will follow the servant to rest in the porter's room."

Sure enough, the big family has many rules, the bearers can't even enter the gate, and Xiaohong can only stay in the lounge of the concierge.I didn't think it was disobedient either, so I smiled and told Xiaohong to wait in the gatehouse, while I followed the old man into the gate with my guitar.Going around some winding corridors, I entered a garden. In the garden, besides the chrysanthemum, there were also a few hibiscus trees with buds, and a few golden osmanthus. It is tall and lush, full of small flowers the size of rice grains, but the aroma is rich and attractive, and it is so sweet that it feels greasy.

While I was looking left and right, a big yellow-haired dog suddenly rushed out from among the flowers and trees, and rushed towards me. I was startled, and quickly moved away. Backing away, the dog had already bit my skirt, and the old housekeeper who led the way hurriedly shouted at the big dog: "Tiger! Let go! Let go!" A large piece of fabric was torn off, and my long skirt suddenly became half a knee-length skirt.I gasped. Fortunately, this ancient costume was wide and long. If I wore trousers, the dog would have bitten off my leg meat.

The dog got a piece of fabric, his face was pale, and he stopped pounced. He just "hummed" and stared at me maliciously while panting.At this moment, I suddenly heard a charming smile: "Huzi, good job! Come here!"

I looked up, and there was an eleven or twelve-year-old girl standing not far in front of me. The tiger heard her call and ran towards her, stood up on its hind legs, and crossed its legs. With his claws, he presented the piece of cloth in his mouth to the little girl as if offering a treasure.The little girl took the rag, took a look in her hand, turned her head disdainfully, looked at me and said: "I also said how beautiful and unparalleled the prostitutes leaning on the red building that are rumored in the capital are so beautiful. Thin and ugly."

The little girl was wearing a pretty pink dress, gorgeous and fine in texture; her hair was tied in two high braids on the top of her head, one left and one right, and decorated with colorful beads of various sizes; her skin was pink and tender, and her face She is round, her eyes are also round, with a pair of black eyes rolling around in the eye sockets, she looks like a tricky young lady who is pampered and pampered by a rich family.

"Miss, this is a guest invited by the general, how can you be so rude." The old man who led the way hurriedly scolded the little girl, but no matter how I listened, I also felt that there was a taste of connivance and schadenfreude in his words.

Looks like I'm not very popular!I smiled and said to the old man: "Old man, can I trouble you to find a change of clothes for me, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go to see the general like this."

It's a warning, I'm not going to tell General Ji about this, you have to be more polite to me, these old people from big families who have been servants for decades can naturally understand what I mean.The old man was stunned, with a distressed expression on his face: "This..., there are no other female relatives in the general's house except the young lady, and her clothes may not fit the girl well." Oh, he was still a little unwilling.

"I wouldn't put clothes on for her!" the little girl yelled, "Don't leave me with a dirty smell, which can't be washed off."

I didn't even look at her, I just said to the old man with a pleasant face: "I don't have women's clothes, the old man can just find me a maid's clothes to change, if you don't have any, you can find me a man's clothes."

What, still not good?If you really want me to wear a men's suit to see General Ji, you will be responsible for the fault of neglecting the guests.The old man's face changed, and he said unwillingly: "Miss, please wait in the front room, I'll ask someone to find a set of clothes for you to change."

"Lin Bo, why are you looking for her!" The little girl saw that I ignored him at all, and Lin Bo seemed to be doing what I said, so she was upset, "She is just a lowly woman who leans on the red building, our general She also deserves to wear the house maid's clothes?"

"Miss, don't mess around!" Lin Bo already knew that I was not an easy persimmon, and he was worried that the more outrageous the girl said, the more she would irritate me, so he scowled and scolded her, while apologizing to me: "Miss, please Follow the old man to the front wing."

"Uncle Lin..." The little girl didn't expect Uncle Lin to shout at her sharply, her eyes widened, and her voice became louder. Uncle Lin ignored her and led me straight forward, and I followed behind him with a smile , Passing by the little girl, she still didn't even look at her, as if she didn't exist, the little girl's face flushed red with anger, the anger in her eyes seemed to be igniting herself.

Lin Bo invited me into the side room, turned around and went to collect clothes for me, and the clothes were brought over in a while.I opened it and saw that it was not bad. The clothes of the maids in the General's Mansion were also made of better fabrics than ordinary people's.He took off his dress and was about to change, when the door burst open, and the little girl rushed in just now, shouting angrily, "Hey! Listen to me..."

I stopped suddenly, seeing that I was naked to the waist, the little girl stuttered and swallowed her words back into her stomach.

I glanced at her indifferently, put on the apron in a leisurely and unhurried manner, pretending that she didn't exist, and dressed on my own, the little girl seemed to have just reacted, turned around and closed the door, and said angrily: "You..., you saw me rushing in, why didn't you call?"

I smiled, it seems that if I ignore her again, the little girl will go crazy: "Why did I call? The lady likes to watch me change clothes, so I will wear them for the lady to see. Our brothel girls are the most understanding."

"Who likes to watch you change?" The little girl turned her head and said angrily, "Shameless."

I smiled, said nothing, put on my coat, tied my belt, straightened my skirt, tidied up, and went to open the door.Seeing that I ignored her, the little girl yelled at me angrily and urgently: "Hey, listen to me, don't think that you can marry into our general's mansion just by using your brain to charm my second uncle, my second uncle I wouldn't like a lowly woman like you in the Goulanyuan."

Uncle?General Sabi?It turned out to be General Ji's little niece.I turned around and looked at her with a smile on my face, and said kindly: "Since the general doesn't like a lowly woman like me, then what are you worried about, miss?"

"I'm not worried." The little girl was stopped by my question, unable to answer for a while, and said angrily.

"Since you're not worried, what are you doing here?" I still looked at her with a smile, hehe, this little girl is really interesting.

"I'm here..." The little girl stopped suddenly, unable to answer, and felt that she was saving face in front of me, and said unreasonably, "This is my home, I can do whatever I want here, you don't care Got it?"

"Of course I don't care, Miss can stay if she likes." I smiled, opened the door, and stepped out of the threshold without looking back.

"You..., you..." The little girl "you" behind me for a long time without saying a word, I still couldn't help laughing, it seemed that I was very angry.Lin Bo glanced at me uneasily, and led me to continue walking. He turned around and saw a small courtyard in the distance. General Ji Jingyun stood outside the courtyard gate, with his hands behind his back.Seeing us coming, he greeted us with a smile and said, "Miss, you have worked hard on the road."

I smiled: "It's hard work, but it's just that I met a mischievous little wild cat, who insisted on me."

"Wild cat?" Ji Jingyun was stunned, and I smiled. Lin Bo looked at me anxiously. Seeing that I had no intention of answering, Ji Jingyun didn't pursue the question. When he saw the clothes I was wearing, he said strangely: "This The clothes look like..."

Just as Lin Bo was about to speak, I said first, "I stumbled on the way here, and my clothes were dirty. It would be impolite to come here directly, so I asked Lin Bo to find me a change of clothes."

Ji Jingyun had the original expression, and Lin Bo looked at me with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.I smiled, and heard Ji Jingyun say to Lin Bo: "Lin Bo, thank you for your hard work, you can go about your work." After finishing speaking, he led me into the small courtyard.The small courtyard is actually not small, but the wall and small gate that are only one person tall gave me a sense of illusion. The courtyard is a garden with lotus ponds, rockery, flower beds, and gazebos. Opposite the pond, there is an open space, Ji Jingyun stopped, turned to me and said: "I will take the girl here, the girl can go forward by herself, Mr. Yu is waiting for you in front."

Heh, seeing someone in trouble like this, Mr. Yu's pomp is too great.I sighed in my heart and walked forward alone.
