Niu Xiaosheng looked at the setting sun in the west, slightly lost in thought. Almost a day had passed, and he didn't know what was going on at Lu Xiaofeng's side or whether he had stopped anyone.
"Mr. Niu, the food is ready. The lady asked me to invite you over for dinner."
At this time, Cui'er, the maid of the Li family, walked quickly to Niu Xiaosheng and said.
After getting along for a long time, Niu Xiaosheng also got to know Cui'er a little bit. He knew that she was a slave that Li Siming bought from Ren Yazi for two taels of silver. She was sixteen years old and had been a maid in the Li family for two years. Apart from her,
, The Li family also has a cook and an old man in charge of the door.
"I understand, let's get over it."
Niu Xiaosheng nodded and walked towards the yard where Li Qingqing lived. The Li family's house is a two-entry house, but the place is relatively large. It is divided into east and west courtyards at the back, and it is the west garden where Li Qingqing lives.
"Today I am busy with my brother's funeral, and I have neglected my benefactor. I hope my benefactor will forgive me."
As soon as he walked into the West Garden, Li Qingqing came out. His hair was wet. He had obviously just taken a shower. He was still wearing a mourning dress. The exaggerated pectoralis major muscles on his chest held up the skirt of his clothes. It was very different from the flatness before. Obviously,
It had been wrapped for convenience before, but now it has returned to its original appearance. The injured hands have also been treated, and they are wrapped in white cloth to bandage the wound, exuding a little medicinal smell.
Niu Xiaosheng gently moved his gaze from somewhere and met Li Qingqing's eyes, "You're too serious about arresting the head. I don't like to hear these words. By the way, you can just call me Xiaosheng from now on. I'm always a benefactor, a benefactor."
Yes, I’m a little unaccustomed to it.”
"Okay, benefactor, no, little saint, you can call me Qingqing in the same way from now on. The food is almost cold, let's go in and eat."
As he spoke, Li Qingqing hugged Niu Xiaosheng's arm very naturally and took him into the dining room inside.
Feeling the elasticity on his arms, Niu Xiaosheng's heart felt as if it was still water, unable to make any waves. You must know that in this era, there is no such thing as a bra.
This is not because Li Qingqing is not beautiful, nor is it because her figure is not hot enough, it is entirely a hardware problem.
Niu Xiaosheng couldn't help but sigh that God was not enough, allowing him to bear the pressure that an adult should bear at such a young age.
There were four dishes and one soup on the table. Except for one of the stews, which was meat from exotic animals, the rest were ordinary meals.
"The wine is not as good as the food. I'm rude."
"Sister Qingqing, we are friends in times of need. Please stop being so polite. These meals are enough."
Niu Xiaosheng's words made Li Qingqing relax and his expression softened.
The death of her eldest brother Li Siming was a big blow to her. After she came back, she made a special trip to the Yamen. The county magistrate told her very clearly that he had no control over this matter.
Therefore, Li Qingqing's only hope for revenge was Niu Xiaosheng, so he naturally became cautious when contacting him, for fear of offending him.
After feeling relaxed, Li Qingqing felt much more relaxed. He picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and fed it to Niu Xiaosheng, "Let's try Siniang's cooking skills. The food she cooks is even better than the restaurant's chef."
eat."
Niu Xiaosheng opened his mouth to bite the piece of meat and found that it was indeed delicious, at least better than what he had cooked.
After eating and drinking, Niu Xiaosheng returned to the yard where he lived temporarily.
"Tui'er, where is the well?"
Niu Xiaosheng asked Cui'er.
"In the front yard, Mr. Ox, do you want to fetch water?"
"Well, I haven't taken a shower for a long time, so I'm going to rinse off."
When we were in the military camp, we could still get some water to wash our bodies. After leaving the quarantine, Niu Xiao had not taken a bath. Although the skin and flesh had been washed away by Qi and blood and there were no impurities, the internal organs were not, so they should stink.
Sometimes, it still smells bad.
"I'm going to boil water now."
"No, there's no need to go to the trouble of boiling water. I can just go to the well and flush it."
Niu Xiaosheng stopped Cui'er and said.
"Okay, sir, please come with me."
Cui'er brought Niu Xiaosheng to the patio of the front yard. There was a well in the corner.
"Okay, you go back and rest. I'll go back to the room to rest after I wash up. You don't need to wait here anymore."
After Niu Xiaosheng finished speaking, he walked towards the well, then took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of homemade underpants, revealing all his muscles.
Wow!
A bucket of cold well water was poured from his head, and Niu Xiaosheng immediately felt refreshed. Since there was no honey locust, he could only dry rub. After a while, a layer of black mud came out of his body.
While washing, he suddenly heard a very subtle exclamation in his ears. As the sensors spread around, he immediately discovered the source of the sound.
At a corner, a woman in her thirties was covering her mouth with her hands, sitting against the wall, with some changes of clothes beside her, her big eyes full of panic.
This must be the fourth lady in charge of cooking. She is quite beautiful. Unlike the heroic Li Qingqing, she is the gentle and feminine type, and she seems to be quite timid.
There were only a few members of the Li family, so Niu Xiaosheng immediately guessed the woman's origin. She must have been preparing to come over to do laundry, and happened to meet him.
He poured a bucket of water over his head, and as soon as the energy and blood in his body began to change, the water droplets all over his body immediately evaporated. He felt refreshed, put on his clothes, and left.
Back in the room, Niu Xiaosheng closed the door and lay down directly. His spirit emerged from the Shenting acupoint. When he was about to enter the space to practice, he suddenly had a thought. After entering the night swimming realm, he had never gone out to swim. Do you want to
Go out for a walk?
As soon as this idea came up, Niu Xiaosheng couldn't help but take action. When he was in the military camp, because the evil spirit and blood in the army were too strong, he didn't dare to wander around at will, but it was different here.
After the soul circled around the body, it passed through the wall and came outside. The feeling outside was completely different from that in the space. At this time, he seemed to be soaked in ice water. It was a little cold, but it was still within the tolerance range.
And when the wind blows, there will be a slight tingling sensation in the soul, as if a blade is blowing against it.
When I came to the front yard, I immediately saw the woman from before beating the clothes by the well. She didn't know if it was because of the heat, her face was pink. Niu Xiaosheng took one look and rushed out of the house.
The night life of the ancient people was relatively simple, and few people went out after dark. The only people who went out at this time were those who went to the fireworks place to have fun, and those who went out were some roosters, dogs, and thieves.
The speed of Shenhun's night tour was extremely fast. Niu Xiaosheng quickly visited most of the county and came back with little interest.
With his current strength, he can't leave his body too far, and there are many places in the county where the soul cannot get close. br Over the county government office, a red sun seems to be hanging in the sky. When he gets close to the soul, it feels like it is being burned by fire. It hurts.
It's fatal.
In addition to the county government office, there are several places that are also shrouded in red light and cannot be approached.
