At present, the blue sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly. Those who have money and leisure are all waiting for the banquet in the Lin Mansion next door. Ordinary people are busy making a living and have no time to enjoy the scenery.
Observing that there was no one around, Lin Xi quickly landed ashore. She was also holding a herring that she had just touched in her hand, and she was flapping her tail lively.
Soon, the entire capital will be in chaos, and the Duke's Mansion will not be able to return for the time being. If you are discovered early, there will be no fun.
It doesn't matter, she has already thought of a good place.
Lin Xi wrung out the water on his body and stopped outside a courtyard.
She held onto the wall with one hand, performed a neat somersault, and landed firmly on the other side of the wall.
The two of them were old acquaintances after all, and she had helped each other twice, so it would be okay to take her in for a while now.
She also brought a fish as a gift.
It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, then she will tie him up.
It only takes a little trouble.
The author has something to say:
Lin Xi: Just playing
Chapter 14
◎We should be original◎
Lu Yan was reading a book, and the Lin Mansion next door was constantly noisy, so he was inevitably distracted.
Ever since the yard wall fell down, he was always worried about another accident. Although he checked carefully, there were no trees that could break the wall.
Hearing the noise outside, Lu Yan had a bad feeling and immediately put down the book in his hand to check.
Lin Xi faced the other party with a surprised look on his face, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence."
Lu Yan: "..."
It turns out that accidents can happen even without trees.
"Why are you here?" He paused, glanced at the Lin Mansion next door, and asked, "What did you do again?"
Lin Xi looked innocent: "What else can I do after what you said? Maybe the sunshine is nice today, so they are all interested in swimming in the water together."
The sun is good, and the water marks she left behind will be dried away without a stick of incense.
No one would have thought that she was just over the wall from them.
Lu Yan didn't believe it, and he didn't want to cause trouble: "Just leave."
Lin Xi: "I'll stay here for one day and I'll make sure that Princess Pingning won't have time to disturb you for three months. This is a good deal."
Lu Yan:......
He couldn't refuse the deal.
Seeing that the other party was relaxed, Lin Xi said rudely: "Find me a handkerchief. I want to wipe my hair, put on some clothes, and warm a bottle of wine."
Lu Yan turned around and went back to the house. Not long after, he came out with clean clothes and a handkerchief.
Lin Xi came closer and smelled it. There was no strange smell, only the faint fragrance of soap locust.
She went to the inner room and changed into dry clothes. She felt completely comfortable. While wiping her hair, she asked, "Where's the wine?"
Lu Yan: "I only have two dollars, so I can't buy wine."
"Where's your money?"
"I gave it to you that day in Qionglou." After a pause, he added, "When I pass the imperial examination in the future, I will naturally have money."
Lin Xi didn't expect him to be so poor, but after all, he had been poor himself, so he didn't think it was a big deal.
He said casually: "Then just wait."
Lu Yan: "..."
Lin Xi looked around. The courtyard was small and remote, but it was precisely because of this that no one noticed it, making it easier to hide his whereabouts.
It is quite difficult for a poor beauty to make a living in the Lu family.
Also, my parents are gone. But there is an uncle who cannot tolerate others and is worried that he will stand in the way of his son, and a cousin who wants to use him to please the princess.
Although his grandmother was still alive, she was bedridden all year round, so she could only ensure that he had a place to live and that he would not die of hunger.
Thinking about it this way, Princess Pingning has not succeeded in making this boy live in a corner. You are not an easy person, young man.
There are also benefits to dealing with smart and courageous people. As long as the benefits can impress the other party, there is no need to waste words.
Such as now.
Lin Xi: "Where is the kitchen? I'm going to cook the fish."
Lu Yan pointed to the small room on the right. His servants often forgot to bring him food, so he built a kitchen himself.
Lin Xi nodded, walked in and saw that the place was small but very clean, and the kitchen utensils were also complete.
Poor beauties are quite particular.
The fish soup is also simple to make. She quickly cleaned up the broken fish belly and didn’t bother with the internal organs.
Spread salt on the fish body, heat oil, fry the fish in a pan until golden brown, then add water.
Don't worry about it, just let the fish simmer in the pot for a quarter of an hour, and the fish soup will be ready.
Lin Xi used to often go fishing in the water and didn't think anything of it. Maybe I have been living a good life recently, and I really want to drink something hot after going out in the water today.
No hot wine, hot fish soup will do.
She walked out of the kitchen and found that Lu Yan had helped her dry the wet clothes she had just changed into.
This guy has a lot of eyes.
Lu Yan said in a calm voice: "I made hot tea, you can drink some."
How can we say that two people are now in a cooperative relationship?
Lin Xi walked to the chopping board and poured herself a cup of tea.
The tea was turbid in color, obviously cheap tea leaves, and had an obvious astringent taste in the mouth.
However, during her years in the army, she even drank muddy water, and she didn't dislike it.
Lu Yan had figured out the whole story. He frowned and asked, "Pretend you fell into the water, and then swim away secretly so they can't find him."
"Correction, I was pushed into the water."
Lin Xi leaned against the table casually.
There are only two ways to force a woman to marry.
Push her into the water and let the man rescue her. The two people are skin to skin. The woman has lost her innocence and can only marry the man who rescued her.
The other is to drug or drink and lock two people in a house. In order to preserve each other's reputations, the two parties can only get married.
So, can't they think of something new?
Well, those people are forcing me with force from above and don't even bother to put any thought into it.
"So you just walked away and left them wandering around like flies?"
Lin Xi said calmly: "What can we do? I can't really kill people."
Killing the Crown Prince, Prince Duan, or Princess Pingning will be very troublesome in the future.
The entire capital is under martial law, and even ordinary people will be affected.
Moreover, these people have their own limitations, and they are far less ruthless than Xiao Xian.
They wouldn't live for a few years anyway, so why bother doing it themselves.
In this book, Xiao Xian is the yandere and crazy person.
Su Yangyang naturally knew this a long time ago. She chose to redeem the other party and become his white moonlight.
When Lin Xi encounters such a lunatic, it is impossible for her to please him gently.
It would be easier to kill them first.
Redemption is what the Buddha wanted to do, and she kindly sent him to reincarnation to see the Buddha.
But she only killed the craziest one, and there were other supporting actors behind her.
So many men will fall in love with Su Yangyang, so one less... doesn't matter.
Lin Xi turned his gaze to the person opposite him, and he had to say, this face was really outstanding.
"What do you think of Su Yangyang?"
Lu Yan thought for a while and finally matched the name and face.
He said politely: "Very good."
Lin Xi smiled, yes, you are too poor to like the heroine.
Then I thought of Lin Yan. Her brother was rich and handsome, but he could only be used as cannon fodder.
Oh, he's not smart and doesn't deserve it.
The other person's expression changed again and again, and Lu Yan couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
Lin Xi: "I'm thinking fish soup should be fine. Do you want to drink it?"
"I'll serve it." Lu Yan didn't refuse. After all, he hadn't eaten meat for a long time.
The assassination half a year ago left him seriously injured. He had been recovering for a long time, but in order to avoid the people sent by the princess, he was injured again.
Nowadays, I can’t even go to the lake to fish.
After the two of them finished the fish soup, Lu Yan washed the dishes and tidied the kitchen.
When he came back, he had a box of ointment in his hand.
"You have a rash on the back of your hand."
