Value peace

Chapter 94

Before Gu Xiyan could figure it out, Duan Yingluo pushed the door open and entered.

Gu Xiyan greeted her with a smile: "The matter is over!"

Duan Yingluo walked towards her with a smile, stopped seven or eight steps away from her, and turned sideways: "Xiyan, let me introduce you to someone."

A woman came out from behind Duan Yingluo, and gave Gu Xiyan a blessing in a light and graceful manner: "Slave Liu Meier, I have met Miss Gu."

Gu Xiyan's pupils shrunk slightly, and she looked at the person with the help of the weak light.

The woman was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with snow-white skin, an oval face, a high nose bridge, big eyes, and a soft and graceful expression.She was wearing a clean pink coat, and it could be seen that she was very tall.Hei Yaya's hair was combed into a high bun, and only a golden phoenix was inserted. The two strings of pearls in the golden phoenix's mouth hung down to her ears, but the woman did not make any sound as she walked.His demeanor exudes a noble and graceful temperament.

Gu Xiyan looked at Duan Yingluo in confusion.

Duan Yingluo signaled her to be safe with her eyes, and said, "Miss Liu will stay with us for a while."

Ever since entering the Hongtai government office, everything has been strange.

Now Duan Yingluo brought another peerless beauty and said that she would stay with them for a while.

What exactly did Qi Maosheng say to Duan Yingluo, and what is the background of this Liu Meier?What is the real meaning of Duan Yingluo's words?
Gu Xiyan felt that everything had become inexplicable.

She warned herself again: At the beginning, she thought Qi Maosheng's situation was so dire, and she came here with a sense of forgiving. Now that everyone is still alive, there is no hurdle to overcome.

Since it is here, let it be.

She showed a polite smile and nodded to Miss Liu, and called "Miss Liu" as a greeting.

Seeing this, Duan Yingluo seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "It's already late at night, you just need to rest your stomach. Let's go to bed early!"

Gu Xiyan went from sadness to surprise to joy to anger, the ups and downs in her emotions affected her appetite that had not recovered in time, how could she still eat.Hearing what Duan Yingluo said, he happened to use the donkey to go downhill, and said, "You know me, I never eat after eight o'clock in the evening. I slept in the open air on this journey, and I really wanted to sleep in a hot bed. It's just that The banquet outside doesn't know when it will end, should we wait for them?"

Duan Yingluo smiled and said: "No need, we will sleep in the Hongtai government office tonight."

Whose arrangement is it?

Gu Xiyan really wanted to ask a question, but she endured it anyway.He smiled and said: "Okay, when I think of the white snow outside the house, I feel chills all over my body. It would be great if I could spend the night in the government office."

After hearing this, Duan Yingluo nodded to Liu Meier: "Then please trouble Miss Liu."

Liu Mei'er smiled softly: "Miss Duan is too polite, how dare you call me 'Trouble'. If the two girls don't mind, you can call me Mei'er from now on!"

Duan Yingluo smiled and said, "Then I'll take it easy and call you 'Meier'!"

Liu Meier nodded happily, tears of joy actually shone in her eyes.

Gu Xiyan was even more puzzled.

Is Duan Yingluo's acknowledgment so important?

Everyone in the living room was having a good time, and they listened with interest to Qi Xiao's talk about how he and Qi Hao went hunting in Lianyun Mountain when he was 12 years old: "...At that time, my second brother and I were only in our teens, and we just bought a new horse. The male horses all wanted to go out for a walk. Wherever they heard this, they naturally clamored to go. My father said at the time that it was okay to go. Run ten laps around the racecourse and shoot ten arrows, whoever gets the most arrows, Anyone can go..." Seeing Duan Yingluo come out, Qi Xiao stopped talking, and everyone's eyes focused on Qi Xiao also turned to Duan Yingluo.

Duan Yingluo smiled and said: "Third Master, Master ordered us to rest at Miss Liu's place today, so we will take our leave first."

Qi Xiao glanced at Liu Meier, who was a little embarrassed, and said with a half-smile: "Go, go. Without the elders, we just have a drink!"

His words caused everyone to chuckle again.

Duan Yingluo smiled and led Gu Xiyan and Liu Meier out the door.

Gu Xiyan noticed that Qi Maosheng did not drink with Qi Xiao and the others.

Liu Meier led the way.While walking, the light-colored pleated skirt and the goose-yellow pleated skirt woven with honeysuckle patterns woven with gold silk money are revealed.

There is a small corner door next to the West House. When you push the door open, you will find a narrow road of about ten meters. After passing through the narrow road, you will find another corner door. Push the corner door open and you will find a small courtyard with a square shape. There is a tree on the left. Towering trees, with a rattan trellis on the left, facing south and north, a building with three main rooms, one bright and two dark, the bright room is at the east end, and the west room is connected with two dark rooms, on the east side of the main room It is another three-room main house, with dark rooms on both sides and bright rooms in the middle.A lamp was still burning in one of the rooms.

Hearing the movement, a fifteen or six-year-old girl ran out in a cotton-padded jacket. She was wearing silk pajama pants and a pair of silver-red embroidered shoes on her feet: "Girl, girl, you are the one who came back." Yet?"

Liu Meier smiled apologetically at Duan Yingluo: "It's my personal maid." After speaking, she turned to the little girl and said, "Qiu Gui, keep your voice down, we have guests."

The little girl named Qiugui was shivering from the cold, but she still stepped forward and bowed her knees to Duan Yingluo and others.

Duan Yingluo hurriedly said: "Don't do this, be careful of catching a cold."

The little girl stood up, hesitated to speak.

Liu Meier asked: "Go find a woman to heat up the kang, and then ask someone to boil hot water for bathing. We have guests today."

Qiu Gui said: "The kang in the house has been burning, and the hot water has been standing on the stove."

Liu Meier nodded in satisfaction: "Then ask someone to bring in the water!"

Qiugui responded, and ran to the junction of the two rooms with her shoes on, and got in. There must be a door or a passageway there.

Liu Mei'er led them into a room facing south and north.

The bright room is the living room, with typical southern furnishings, incense cases, square tables, grand master chairs, small flowers, and screens, etc. The dark room is a suite. The room is divided into an outer room with an ice-cracked floor-to-ceiling cover and a goose-yellow gauze curtain. and inner chamber.The outer room is the living room. There are painting tables, bookshelves, concubine Xiang's couch, flowers, pianos, pen holders, brushes, paper, inkstones, plum vases, and guqin. There is also a pot of green plants half a person's height in front of the window.The inner room is a heated kang, on which are placed purple purlin wood kang tables and tall cabinets of almost two meters.

As soon as he entered the door, the heat that hit his face made his whole body alive, especially Liu Meier, who sighed comfortably.She invited them to sit down as a master. Qiugui, still wearing her coat, directed several women to bring in the wooden barrels and hot water for bathing. The room immediately became steamy and foggy.

Liu Mei'er got on the kang, stretched out her hand to open the door of the high cabinet, the big pink coat spread out, revealing a section of lotus-like arms, each wearing a jade bracelet, making those arms look like frost and snow white.

Gu Xiyan stared straight at that arm, feeling chilly in her heart.

It's winter, wearing so little...for whom?

Liu Mei'er took out some obscene clothes from the closet, and said with a smile: "Miss Duan, Miss Gu, I made these new ones, and I haven't got my upper body yet, so you can just wear them first!"

Duan Yingluo thanked Liu Meier, and pushed to ask Gu Xiyan to wash up first, Gu Xiyan was not polite to her, and agreed, Liu Meier asked Qiugui to stay and serve Gu Xiyan, she did not refuse, Liu Meier Seeing this, she accompanied Duan Yingluo to the living room.

Now that the matter has come to this, Gu Xiyan let go instead.She washes herself with the help of Qiugui.Qiugui couldn't help but said, "The girl is so thin!"

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but smiled wryly and touched her cheek.

After taking a bath, Gu Xiyan picked out a set of pink obscene clothes, but it was a bit big, and it fit loosely on her body.

She put away the obscene dress she had changed.

Qiugui smiled and said, "Miss Gu, don't worry, I will wash your hands with saponins."

All of her belongings are sewn here, and those banknotes will be completely destroyed when they are in the water, and those money houses will be cheap for nothing.

Gu Xiyan knew that she had misunderstood, and said with a smile: "No, no. I should keep my personal things by myself."

Qiugui thought about it, after all, she was not Miss Gu's personal maid, and it was only natural for her to have scruples.So he stopped forcing, and helped Gu Xiyan twist her hair with a cotton cloth.

Although the house was burned and her head was wet, Gu Xiyan still felt a little cold. She wore her own coarse cotton trousers and jacket.

Qiugui's expression was a little awkward, and she said softly: "Girl, although we are also guests here, this room is assigned to our girl. I can't make up my own mind to invite the girl to the kang, and please bear with me. I will also change a few more towels, and quickly help the girl to wring her hair dry."

When you meet for the first time, even if you change yourself, you probably won't casually invite someone into your bed.

Gu Xiyan smiled understandingly: "What Miss Qiugui said is because I am embarrassed. If we hadn't come suddenly, you could have had a good rest."

Seeing that Gu Xiyan was easy to get along with, Qiugui breathed a sigh of relief and smiled comfortably, but speeded up the movement of twisting her hair.

When the hair was almost twisted, Qiu Gui called the rough envoy to come in and tidy it up.At this time, Yingluo and Liu Meier walked in, Duan Yingluo was startled when she saw that Gu Xiyan was still wearing old clothes.

Gu Xiyan followed her gaze, saw the old clothes on her body, and said with a smile: "Miss Liu's clothes are all made of silk, the weather is a bit cold..."

Liu Meier smiled softly and said, "Since Miss Gu feels cold, why don't you go to the kang. Qiu Gui, quickly help Miss Gu to go to the kang." The last sentence was for Gui Qiu.

Qiugui took a look at Gu Xiyan, and said in embarrassment: "Girl, then you..."

Liu Mei'er glanced at Qiugui lightly, and said: "It's a visitor from afar, Gu Xiyan and Miss Duan are sleeping in my room today. You go and tidy up your side, I will squeeze with you. "

Gu Xiyan thought that she was a guest at Liu Meier's place, so there was no reason to squeeze the master into the servant's room but occupy the magpie's nest by herself.He hurriedly said: "No, no, how can I occupy the girl's bed. I should squeeze with Qiugui..."
