In the general's office, Wei Ning came in from the outside and saw the untouched dishes in the food box on the table. He hesitated a little and asked Wei Cheng, who had been standing under the eaves of the corridor and looking into the distance.
"General, do you want to take off the dishes on the table and heat them up?"
Wei Cheng didn't look back and thought for a moment, "Throw it away."
Wei Ning packed up his things and was about to throw them away. Wei Cheng turned back a few steps, took off the silk scarf on the food box, put it in his arms casually, and strode away.
——
For nearly three days, the courtyard was very clean. Except for the nanny who came to bring her meals regularly every day, and occasionally a few unknown birds fluttered their wings and landed in front of the window, no one else disturbed her.
She always likes to be quiet. The shelves in the study room are filled with books. She reads books and makes clothes every day. The days go by as fast as water. At noon on the third day, Shen Yinxiao is stacking books on the long curved table. There are several pieces of Su Luo, which are cut with great effort.
Although it was daytime, she was afraid of the cold, and the doors and windows were tightly closed. Once the windows were closed, the already not very bright sun could no longer illuminate the room. She lit a lamp, leaned under it, holding a silver needle, I raked my hair twice.
The lights are like beans, and the room is warm and peaceful, making people drowsy.
Seeing that she was done with the last bit left, she sped up her hands and passed the silk thread through her hands, making a rustling sound. She didn't even notice that a carriage stopped at the door of the other courtyard.
The nanny who was guarding the outer room walked in quickly with small steps, knocked on the door, and said warmly through the mullioned door: "Madam, a guest is here."
guest.
She raised her head, a little confused, unable to think of any other guests here.
"who is it?"
Just as Grandma was about to speak, a familiar voice sounded faintly smiling, and from far to near, soft-soled embroidered shoes made a muffled sound on the floor.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I can see from a distance that the eaves and corners of this courtyard are more delicate than other courtyards." Yunxian pushed open the mullioned door, holding up his sleeves with a meaningful smile: "Yinxiao, you are doing well. .”
Grandma pretended not to hear, closed the door and left.
She knelt down beside the case carefreely, resting her elbows on the case, supporting her chin, and looked at her carefully. The curvature of the corners of her mouth became wider and wider: "Recently, she has become more plump and plump. She is well nourished."
Shen Yinxiao almost lost his grip on the needle and glanced at her: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you here?"
She moved her butt and moved closer to Shen Yinxiao: "Wei Shaojun, oh no, I should be called a general. He sent someone to send me here. He said he was afraid that you would be alone here with no one to talk to, so he asked me to accompany you. say something."
She was heartbroken and said sadly: "I think I have met countless men in my lifetime. Such a caring and handsome man is so rare. Why don't you let me meet him? If I were the one who met the general first, I would wake up laughing in my dreams." .”
Shen Yinxiao paused, put down the needle and thread, and said sincerely: "Actually, if you like it, I don't mind if you pry him over."
Her jaw dropped in shock, and she pointed at Shen Yinxiao with trembling fingers: "You...are you willing?"
"Yinxiao, you are too heartless!"
"What's so reluctant about it?" She looked for scissors on the case, but couldn't find it. She had to lower her head and bite off the thread and tie a knot: "It's not yours. No matter how hard you try, you can't keep it. The more you try to win over her, the harder it becomes. I'm worrying about gains and losses. If one day he completely doesn't want me anymore, I might be depressed for a few days and then I'll be fine. It's better than the horrible state I'm in now."
She "tsk-tsk" a few times and shook her head: "It's really a woman's heart that is not warm."
She thought for a while, touched her chin, and hissed again: "But characters like yours are rare. I've read a lot of storybooks recently, and I always feel that those who write storybooks are always a bit boring. , it makes people feel as if they are scratching their heads. I am planning to enter the storybook industry recently. Not only can I show off my accumulated experience in reading storybooks for many years, but maybe I can also become the originator of the storybook industry and become a celebrity for the ages. If there are knowledgeable people who can adapt my scripts into hundreds of plays, then my life will be considered worthwhile, haha, the main thing is that I can earn some pocket money besides accepting customers."
She made a fist with her right hand and tapped it lightly on her palm: "You have given me new inspiration."
After saying that, he held Shen Yinxiao's hand with some excitement: "Yinxiao, you are truly my noble man!"
Shen Yinxiao was silent.
"After receiving the guests, do you still have time to write the storybook?"
Yunxian is the top star of Cuihua House. Every day, the young masters waiting to be her guests line up from Fanyang City to Shanggu County. Shen Yinxiao feels that her wish is really difficult to realize.
It’s not that I question her writing ability, but that it’s really too much for someone who is so busy that she can’t even put her feet on the ground.
Yun Xian blushed when he heard this, and became a little embarrassed: "I forgot to tell you, I was wrapped up by someone, and I have been much more relaxed recently. I am not as unable to get out as before."
"Who is so generous?"
Yun Xian was worth a lot of money. There was once a country prince who fell in love with her. The two were entangled and entangled for a long time. The country prince vowed to stay with her for the rest of his life and wanted to redeem her to be his fifth concubine. , but it turned out that Mother Liu of Cuihua House felt that Yunxian's rare goods could be lived in, so the lion opened her mouth and offered a price that frightened the country prince, so the matter was dropped. Found a new love.
Although the price of covering one's body is not as high as that of redeeming one's body, it is still quite expensive.
"You should have met Mr. Helian, Helian Chongming." She poured herself a cup of tea with a calm expression and took a sip.
She thought of the man named Helian Chongming, who seemed to be very familiar to Wei Cheng. He had a high nose and deep eyes, fair skin, and slightly curly long hair. He was of Qiang and Han descent. The last time he heard about it was when he was in Shanggu County. , in those days, he had just been promoted to the post of county magistrate. He was young and promising, not yet married, and his future was unlimited.
"Is that the case of being eliminated or Master Helian coming to Cuihua Tower?" Shen Yinxiao asked casually.
"I'm out. These days, I'm living in his villa. He comes over sometimes."
Shen Yinxiao thought of something, smiled palely, and said nothing.
After all, Yun Xian is a famous prostitute who is registered with the government, and she does everything openly and honestly. She is also living in this villa now, waiting for the man to come over on a whim one day, and she is about to become a secret prostitute. .
She was a little short of breath and raised her head to drink a large glass of water.
Yunxian didn't notice anything strange about her. He looked down at the half-made clothes in her hands and sighed: "It's so beautiful. Is it for General Wei?"
"Um."
"If you ask me, you are more suitable for him than that Lady Wang. He is more interested in you than Wang Yuanjun."
"Speaking of which, you and Wang Yuanjun look quite similar. Do you think he loves the house and the bird?"
She blinked her eyes and said meaningfully: "Yesterday I saw General Wei and her together. General Wei's words and deeds towards her did not cross the line at all, and he did not look like he was treating her sweetheart at all."
Shen Yinxiao just felt like a knife was stabbed in his heart. She didn't like her. The more she valued someone, the more she would respect her. She restrained her words and actions for fear of being rude and offending.
This is what is called cherishing.
For those who are insignificant and have nothing to rely on, they come and go as soon as they are called. When they are good, they tease them like they love cats and dogs. When they are not good, they just throw them aside.
What's the point of her resemblance to Wang Yuanjun? If Wei Cheng really did this to her because she looked like Wang Yuanjun, who once abandoned him...
There was no wind in the room, but she shivered.
If a person loves another person, and when he meets a woman who is similar to her, he must be comfortable with her. If he really likes Wang Yuanjun, but is hurt by Wang Yuanjun and dare not express his true feelings, he should question her carefully. The only thing to do is to solve the problem between them. What is the difference between doing this and searching for a sword?
She felt that the blood all over her body was cold and she forced a smile: "Madam Wang, a noble lady from a noble family, is someone who no one dares to offend at will."
She suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach. She had not had a good appetite in the past few days, but now she was even more upset, and her face and eyes were dizzy. She stood up on the table and said slowly: "Let's go lie down on the couch and talk. , I guess I didn’t get enough rest, and I feel a little dizzy..."
Before she finished speaking, her expression changed. She couldn't bear it anymore. She staggered two steps and said "Wow" while holding on to the screen and vomited.
