Yi Xiaochuan was already out of breath when he got home. He had been waiting in line for a long time, and there were always noble people coming to jump in the queue. With his physical condition, he couldn't hold on.
"Those guarding sergeants are really looking down on others. I told you we are the Meng family and they still want us to show proof. Then why didn't Lieutenant Gao show it? I'm so angry!"
"Also, what's going on with the sergeants who look after your house? They just say hello casually when you come back, but they don't show any enthusiasm for the young master at all?"
"Ah, you're talking! I thought I could enjoy glory and wealth when I married you, but I ended up being unlucky for half my life!"
As soon as he returned to the room, Wang Jie began to complain and chatter all the way.
Yi Xiaochuan frowned: "Stop talking?"
"Ah, I just said what's wrong? Why, if I marry you and give you a son, I will be useless, right? I can't say anything anymore, can I? Let me tell you, Yi Xiaochuan, I am the main wife of the Meng family,
Brother Mengtian recognized it personally, and I will not only say it, but I will say it to you for the rest of my life!" Wang Jie roared loudly.
Yi Xiaochuan's head was buzzing at this time, and he even felt like there were two thousand ducks quacking in his ears. Thinking of Lu Su's former gentleness, and Yu Shu's lively, cute and weird elf, he suddenly felt hateful.
I hate myself for why I let go! Am I really cheap?
"Master Meng Yi, there are guests outside!"
Hearing this, Yi Xiaochuan hurriedly went out: "Please clean up the room!"
"Humph~" the fierce girl hummed.
Yi Xiaochuan was so frightened that his body trembled.
When he arrived in the living room, Yi Xiaochuan was shocked: "Gao Lan? No, I heard Cui Wenzi said that you are Gao Yao's adopted sister, Xiaoyue."
Xiaoyue was a little shy when she saw Yi Xiaochuan's face. As Li Fei's maid, she had spent almost every day in Yu Shu's brainwashing. She had been heartbroken for a long time by how good and handsome Yi Xiaochuan used to be.
Although something unexpected happened later, Yu Shu was relieved to be her concubine. But he heard about Xiaochuan from his elder brother. It turned out that he found so many women to pass on the incense to the Meng family, and later his body collapsed. It was really pitiful.
.
The key is that Yi Xiaochuan's body was accidentally damaged by brother's men. Today, when she heard that Yi Xiaochuan was back, Xiaoyue thought about it and took a Yuan-building Pill from her brother's room to nurse Xiaochuan back to health.
"Brother Xiaochuan, this is the Yuan-Building Pill, which can nourish your body. Here it is for you!" After saying that, Xiaoyue blushed and prepared to leave.
Yi Xiaochuan quickly stopped: "Xiaoyue, I heard that you are serving Yu Shu in the palace?"
"yes!"
"Then do you have time to listen to our story? It also fulfills my last wish for the rest of my life." Yi Xiaochuan said with a smile.
"Ah, okay!" Xiaoyue paused immediately. Little girls like to listen to these touching love stories. She was really curious.
…
In the evening, Xiaoyue slowly walked back to Gaofu. Thinking of the pale but handsome man, she instantly felt that he was so pitiful.
No matter what he does, he seems to live in the shadow of his brother. In the end, he achieves nothing and falls ill. Moreover, although his body is like this, Brother Ogawa is also open-minded and optimistic, and his words are funny.
It would be great if the man in my future was so handsome and interesting!
As soon as she entered the yard, she saw her brother wearing a black robe, standing there with his hands behind his hands, motionless and imposing.
"I heard someone said today that you had a day off, why did you come back so late?" Gao Yao asked in a deep voice.
At this moment, Gao Yao felt that he had the feeling of an elder brother. You must know that Gao Lan at home did not give him any face in the past.
It's still better than ancient times.
Xiaoyue panicked: "I, I saw that winter was coming and the weather was getting colder and colder, so I went out to see if there were any good-looking fabrics and wanted to sew a robe for my elder brother."
Gao Yao nodded with satisfaction, stepped forward, bent down and smoothed Xiaoyue's messy hair: "My sister is getting older, I'm going to propose marriage to you, how about it?"
"Ah!" Xiaoyue exclaimed: "No, I want to be with my brother forever!"
"Hahaha~" Gao Yao laughed heartily: "My daughter's family will get married sooner or later. Just wait, I will ask which family has a young master who is about the same age as you, is handsome, wealthy, and has a good temper."
"We can't let my little girl get bullied and feel a little wronged when she gets married!" Gao Yao said feeling a little sad.
When a daughter or sister gets married, it is a very uncomfortable thing for a man.
"Then, it's all up to me!" Xiaoyue blushed and hurried back to the room.
What kind of person will my husband be in the future? Is Brother Ogawa as humorous as he is?
…
Half a month later, Gaofu.
"What, you still don't like Li Si's son Li You? Then tell me what kind of person you like?" Gao Yao was a little confused, but he still wanted to find a good home for his sister.
Xiaoyue sat at the bottom, her little hands wringing the corners of her clothes anxiously, not daring to say a word.
"That's what you said!" Gao Yao stepped forward and asked anxiously.
"Me, me!" Xiaoyue burst into tears but still didn't dare. She knew that her brother had a deep prejudice against Yi Xiaochuan, but after getting along with him for half a month, she felt that she was deeply in love with this handsome and melancholy man.
You can do anything for this man.
Gao Yao looked at Xiaoyue suspiciously, her expression looked a bit like Gao Lan's look when she was in love at that time, and his heart suddenly sank, as his cabbage was secretly taken away from her.
"Do you have someone you like?" Gao Yao asked.
"No, no~" Xiaoyue hurriedly objected.
It’s bad, women are always telling the truth, and what they don’t have is what they have.
"Tian Jiu, come out and tell me where Xiaoyue has been during this time?" As soon as Gao Yao finished speaking, a gray field mouse suddenly appeared around the corner.
Xiaoyue was shocked: "Brother, you, are you spying on me?"
"I have the spare time to monitor you. I am protecting you. You don't know how many people are waiting for me to step down. You can't even imagine the methods of those people!" Gao Yao explained casually.
Regardless of whether his sister believed it or not, he believed it anyway.
"Zhizhi~" Before Tian Jiu could squeak twice, Xiaoyue shouted with red eyes: "Brother, don't ask, I like Yi Xiaochuan, I want to marry him!"
Gao Yao was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had heard wrongly due to his blindness.
After a while, Gao Yao pointed at Xiaoyue, who had a determined face. He didn't know what to say and sighed: "Hey! You, you!"
After calming down, Gao Yao asked: "Xiaoyue, are you telling me now that Yi Xiaochuan is using you to help him send a message to Concubine Li?"
"Yes, but it was all of my own free will!" Xiaoyue said firmly. She showed her cards. At this moment, she felt that she could sacrifice everything for love.
As for my brother, if you love her, you should support her!
Hearing this, Gao Yao put his hand on his forehead and was speechless. Why did women in ancient times feel so weak? Or was it because he just happened to meet such girls?
"Brother, I don't care how you want to punish me now, whether you drive me out or beat me to death, I believe Brother Xiaochuan!" Xiaoyue regarded death as home.
When a person gives all his love, others often take it for granted and don't know how to cherish it. This is human nature.
"Okay, you go back and rest, I'll think about it!" Gao Yao turned around and went back to his room.
After working as an intelligence agent for so many years, he understands human nature better and better. People may do impulsive things when they are in a hurry, but if you slowly calm down and see the reality clearly, she will make the right choice.
On the second day, when the vacation was over, Xiaoyue entered the palace on leave, but was stopped as soon as she arrived at the gate of Yangxin Hall.
"Miss Xiaoyue, you are no longer a member of the Yangxin Palace!" A palace maid came over and said politely.
Xiaoyue was stunned: "When did it happen?"
"Mr. Zhao personally ordered this morning that you have been transferred to the washing room." The palace maid smiled.
Xiaoyue was suspicious, could it be that my brother was responsible? No way, my brother was so kind to her before, how could he treat her like this?
"It's not good, Sister Xiaoyue, Captain Gao was seriously injured by an assassin last night. The doctor said he will die soon!" Xiao Linzi, my brother's disciple, came over and said with a crying face.
"Ah!" Xiaoyue exclaimed, feeling heartbroken for a moment.
She knows that without her brother's care, she is nothing.
"I'll go back and take a look!" Xiaoyue wanted to leave the palace in a hurry.
Xiao Linzi quickly stopped her: "Sister Xiaoyue, you have no right to leave the palace now!"
Xiaoyue was stunned and suddenly understood something. The tree fell and the monkeys scattered, her brother was gone, and everything was lost for her. No, she still had love. When she applied for leaving the palace later, she saw Xiaochuan and asked him to help!
"Who is Xiaoyue? Manager Zhao has an order. If she does not go to the Washing Bureau, she will be punished as a deserter and given a fifty-fifty cane." A eunuch came over and asked loudly.
"That's her!" Xiao Linzi suddenly pointed at Xiaoyue and shouted loudly.
Xiaoyue turned around:???
After Xiao Yue left, Gao Yao came out and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Master, I did as you asked." Xiao Linzi said respectfully.
"Um."
…
At night, Xiaoyue dragged her tired body to the main bunk where the maids slept. She looked at her hands, which had not done rough work for a long time, and were soaked white with water.
Xiaoyue puckered her lips.
I remembered that I used to be submissive in the weaving and embroidery workshop of Xianyang Palace. I was pitiful and helpless and no one cared about me. I also remembered that after being taken care of by my old brother, I rose to prominence. All the palace maids treated me very hard, and even the superior Manager Zhao called me Sister Xiaoyue.
Now, what is the food for dinner called? Pig food? All the maids in the house eat better than this!
Lying down on the bunk bed, Xiaoyue pinched her nose, shrank into a corner, covered herself with a quilt, and then a smell made her almost vomit.
Many people don’t know that girls actually have more sweat glands on their bodies, and if they are not washed regularly, they will smell very bad.
Xiaoyue tossed and turned all night long, as if she had no future.
As a palace maid of the Washing Bureau, it is impossible for her to leave the palace even in her lifetime. What should she do?
No, she can also send a letter to Brother Xiaochuan. He is the son of the Meng family and he can save her!
For half a month, there were clothes to be washed from morning to night every day. Although no one bullied her for the time being, she knew that after a while, others would definitely bully her when they found out that she had no background. Then they would add more clothes to their clothes.
Come to yourself, and if you don’t agree, take action as a group.
Sometimes, the more miserable the place, the worse the people's hearts.
Finally one day, she waited for Tian Jiu to pass by, quickly greeted him, gave him ten copper coins, and asked him to help deliver a letter to Yi Xiaochuan.
Others thought that Tian Jiu didn't know anything and only knew how to walk a fixed route every day. But she heard from her elder brother that by practicing and building Yuan Dan, Tian Jiu already had the wisdom of a child.
As for the content of the letter, my brother specially hired a teacher to let her learn the calligraphy, and sometimes even taught her the words himself.
At this time, Xiaoyue suddenly recalled how good her brother was, and even what he said when he taught her how to practice calligraphy still lingered in her ears.
"Practice martial arts, you can gain great strength and lose the cowardice in your heart; learning, knowledge can quietly help you wipe away the ignorance and superficiality on your face."
But she knew that she was not his biological sister, but just his spiritual sustenance, a spiritual sustenance that could be discarded at any time.
The next night, in the middle of the night, I was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and Xiaoyue finally waited for a reply.
"Xiaoyue Qiqi, first of all I want to say sorry to you. I took advantage of you, your curiosity and concern for me to restore contact with Yushu. It was also through you that I learned that Yushu did not abandon me back then.
She still loves me, and I love her too!"
"I will definitely find a way to go to the palace and be with her forever.
As for you, Xiaoyue, our Meng family doesn’t have any connections in the palace to help you. But I have inquired, as long as you are willing, the palace will release you when you are forty years old, and then I will give you the best advice.
good life."
"Yi Xiaochuan."
After reading the reply, Xiaoyue was dumbfounded and suddenly recalled what her brother had said to her countless times.
"Xiaoyue, let me tell you, be careful of Yi Xiaochuan. He is very good at girls and has harmed countless girls."
It’s over! There’s no hope!
Looking back at the abyss-like dormitory, Xiaoyue closed her eyes.
If she has never seen the sun, she will get used to the darkness.
But she now knows how comfortable the lives of those noble people are, and she has even experienced such a beautiful life.
Now she is asked to live at the lowest level, how can she survive?
Remembering that she had a big fight with her brother on the last night, Xiaoyue suddenly felt a little regretful. She had let down the man who was the best to her in the world, but she loved a man who was not worthy of love at all.
Aren’t you cheap?
Half an hour later, in the clothes drying room, Xiaoyue tied the ribbon on the beam and hung it around her neck, with tears in her eyes.
"Brother, I hope I will really be your sister in the next life!" After saying that, Xiaoyue kicked the stool away with a determined kick.
Instantly, Xiaoyue felt a sense of suffocation, and at the same time there was a huge pain as the rope embedded in the skin. Then, the blood vessels became swollen and congested, and her head felt swollen, as if it was going to explode.
"Ah!" Xiaoyue struggled hard. She never knew that death was so painful.
Gradually, she seemed to feel her neck being stretched.
Pain, despair, regret, and even for a short moment she recalled the happiest moment in her life.
"Sister, haha, I'm going to have a sister again!"
"Sister, this is your home. Whatever you want, whatever you want to eat, tell me whatever you want, and I will get it for you."
"Sister, if you are tired of palace work, please stop doing it. Brother, I will support you for the rest of your life!"
"Crack, click~" seemed to be the sound of the ribbon breaking, and then, it collapsed, and Xiaoyue fell directly to the ground.
"Ahem~" She coughed violently, as if her internal organs were going to be carved out, but she was given another life.
This sound also alarmed other people. They came over to take a look and shouted: "Come on, someone has hanged himself!"
After a while, the laundry room was in alarm, and the maid who had asked Xiaoyue to help with the laundry during the day suddenly panicked.
Is it necessary? Do more laundry and hang yourself?
He quickly apologized one by one. Xiaoyue was not afraid of death. What if she didn't die now and couldn't think of taking them with her?
The next day, Xiaoyue's work was obviously much less, and she felt much more relaxed. While washing her clothes, she was planning to burn paper money for her brother when she gets old and leaves the palace.
I don’t know if my brother has a tomb. If not, just build a tomb for him and help him guard his tomb from now on.
"Xiaoyue!"
Suddenly, she seemed to hear a familiar voice in her ears. Xiaoyue raised her head, wearing a black robe and looking majestic.
"Ah, brother, you are cured!" Xiaoyue jumped up excitedly.
The greatest joy in life is to find something lost!
"It's been hard on you these days!" Gao Yao sighed.
"It's not hard, it's not hard, brother, as long as you get better, I'm willing to wash clothes for another ten years!" Xiaoyue smiled excitedly.
Hearing this, Gao Yao smiled even more heartily.
Emotions are actually the least able to withstand the test!
