The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 130

Xie Yujiao only thought that her hair had been dipped in water, and when it dripped, she lowered her head and found that it was a shocking blood-red mass.She was startled, and the lamp in her hand fell to the ground. At this moment, only a touch of silver-white robe flashed in front of her eyes, and Zhou Tianhao had already jumped off the beam.

Ziyan was originally timid, but she was shocked by a person floating down from the beam at night, and when she was about to shout out, Zhou Tianhao hurriedly said, "Ziyan, don't shout, it's me!" .”

Xie Yujiao had just seen his clothes turned over, she had already guessed it, and saw that he stretched out a bloody palm, and the red spot on his nose was nothing but nosebleeds, she was angry and funny at the same time, and she squeezed herself tightly. He glanced at him sideways and said, "Your Highness is very interested. Since you like to be a gentleman on the beam, you can sleep here today."

At this time, Xie Yujiao was only wrapped in a sweat towel, and she was standing barefoot on the bluestone slabs. Her toenails were dyed with Danko, and they were quietly attached to her toes like shells.Zhou Tianhao thought it looked so good, he knelt down on one knee, pulled out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and only reached out to hold Xie Yujiao's ankle.

"What are you doing?" Xie Yujiao looked at her, her face flushed slightly.Seeing the situation, Ziyan at the side was very savvy, so she hurriedly bent down to pick up the extinguished lamp, and said to the door with two steps at a time: "The lamp is out, slave girl... slave girl, go outside to find a torch and light it up." .”

Xie Yujiao became more and more embarrassed when she heard the words. These two maids are really serious, why don't they have any intention of protecting them?Have you forgotten who gave them the loose moon silver?
"You are so leisurely, first wipe off the nosebleed on your face. And your palm..." Xie Yujiao lowered her head, and saw that there was a circle of blood on her ankle that had been cleaned by him.

Zhou Tianhao came to his senses in a moment, so he stood up hastily, scooped water from the water tank at the side and washed it in the silver basin. The cold water splashed on his face, and the feeling of blood congestion subsided a little.Seeing him lowering his head to wash his face, Xie Yujiao quietly untied the sweat towel on his body, and put on the obscene clothes and trousers that were put aside, but she was not as fast as Zhou Tianhao, so she tied up the waist of her trousers and was about to tie the small pockets Zhou Tianhao raised his head when he was in the room.

Xie Yujiao was carrying Zhou Tianhao's little gown, so he was only left with a smooth and white back, with a pair of arms behind his back. Because he was usually served by a maid, his movements seemed a bit clumsy.

After a while, both of them seemed to be indulging in the passionate kiss just now. Zhou Tianhao raised his head, waved his hand and wiped away the blood that was about to slip down from his nose, and walked to the side of the screen with Xie Yujiao in his arms. , pulled off a robe and wrapped her in it.

When she opened the door and went out, she saw Ziyan waiting in the porch with the lamp in her hand.

"You hold the lamp for me, and I'll send Jiaojiao up."

Fortunately, the night was quiet at this time, and the maids in Xu Huiru's room had already fallen asleep, and the little maids who usually served in the Xiulou also fell asleep at this time. Ziyan's cheeks were red, and she held a lamp in front of her, leading Zhou Tianhao up.

The room has been scented with incense, exuding a faint smell. It is almost the summer heat these few days, and ice cellars have been placed in the room, and it is cool and shady at this time.Zhou Tianhao put Xie Yujiao on the bed, saw that her ankles were still stained with the blood he had just removed, so he ordered Ziyan: "Go and bring a big basin of water."

Ziyan went downstairs in response to the sound, her heart beating non-stop. When she went to fetch water from the bathhouse, she deliberately searched around inside. Except for the two spots of blood dripped by Zhou Tianhao just now, she didn't see any other places. But he was somewhat envious of Xie Yujiao.

After a while, the water came up, and Zhou Tianhao was there, but Zi Yan was not there to serve.

According to Xie Yujiao's previous temper, Zhou Tianhao was already prepared to be repaired by her, but today Xie Yujiao didn't get angry, just watched him hold his ankle, and gently wiped away the blood on it.

Xie Yujiao did not bind her feet, but her pair of natural feet were small and delicate, and the pink blood veins could still be seen faintly on the insteps, giving her a feeling of icy muscles and bones.

"Why are you here today? Mother said we can't meet these days."

Xie Yujiao was not ashamed to be wiped by someone's ankle, but also felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Tianhao wiped Xie Yujiao's ankles, but he didn't let go. He just said, "You've only lived here for so long, why are you so full of the rules here? It stands to reason that you will be mine sooner or later..."

When Zhou Tianhao said this, he felt as if his body was about to catch fire, so he let go of her ankles, stood up and said, "I just missed you, and I was afraid that your mother would find out, so I came in secretly. If you don't welcome, I will Let's go."

"Hey..." Xie Yujiao just said casually, but now seeing that she was leaving, she hurriedly sat up from the bed, and the half-covered robe fell off her body, and the spring light only hurt Zhou Tianhao's eyes.

Zhou Tianhao held Xie Yujiao in his arms with only his robe in his arms, rubbing against the delicate skin of her shoulders, and said in a hoarse voice, "You are torturing me like this, I'm going to die."

When Xie Yujiao heard this, her cheeks turned even redder. She put her hands on her chest and let Zhou Tianhao hold her. After thinking for a while, she said, "Be patient for another two days, and I will do whatever it takes?"

"Are you serious?" Zhou Tianhao asked happily like a child, and after thinking about it, he said, "Anyway, it's useless for you to regret it when the time comes."

After hearing this, Xie Yujiao felt a chill down her back, and regretted it for a while.

After a while, Xie Yujiao put on her middle coat, and called Ziyan to make a pot of tea quietly, and the two of them chatted around the candlelight without feeling sleepy for a while.

Xie Yujiao took out the red sandalwood box Xu gave her from the chest of drawers, pushed it to Zhou Tianhao and said, "Take these things back, keep them for yourself, or give them to your brother emperor."

Zhou Tianhao opened the box suspiciously. At this time, the candlelight in the room was dim. When he opened it, he saw only a stack of papers, so he randomly took a piece of paper and threw it under the candlelight. His hands trembled in fright, and he almost dropped the bank note. It's lit.

Xie Yujiao then said with a coquettish smile, "Take it easy, if it burns, you won't be able to afford it."

"This... so many... have you counted them?" Zhou Tianhao glanced into the box, but he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy.

"I'm not good at math, I'm afraid I can't count. You can take it back and count slowly." Xie Yujiao took the banknote from Zhou Tianhao's hand and put it in the box. Lock it and push it in front of him.

"It's the first time I know that I'm so valuable. This feeling of selling myself is so unreal..." After Zhou Tianhao murmured, he only looked at Xie Yujiao and said, "I have the illusion of hugging Sister Kuan."

Xie Yujiao burst out laughing, and seeing Zhou Tianhao's disfigured face, she just poked his forehead with her fingertips and said, "This is not an illusion. From today onwards, you are my sister's."

When Zhou Tianhao heard the words, his eyes flashed immediately, and he said with a playful smile, "Then shall we have a bridal chamber tonight?"

Xie Yujiao raised her eyebrows, gave Zhou Tianhao a hard look, and said, "Go to sleep in the bathroom downstairs!"

When Zhou Tianhao went downstairs, Ziyan, who was guarding outside, had already dozed off, because there were no vacant rooms in the servant's room at the back of the embroidery building, and all the maidservants lived there, so Zhou Tianhao was really serious today. It's just someone's bathhouse, if it's hot today, Xie Yujiao asked Ziyan to prepare a thin quilt for him, so he can make it through the night.

Before dawn the next day, Zhou Tianhao hurried back to the capital before everyone got up.When Xie Yujiao got up, she saw a crack in the window and a half-open lotus protruding into the room from the outside.Xie Yujiao picked the lotus and brought it into the room, and asked the servant girl to find a white porcelain vase to keep in it.

Looking out from the window on the second floor, one could see the villagers who had already arrived at the door of Xie's house to carry the dowry, forming a mighty long queue.

The firecrackers and suonas sang, and the first dowry was lifted on the shoulders of the villagers, all the way from Xikuayuan to the door.

Xie Yujiao looked at these villagers and suddenly sighed in her heart. If it hadn't been for the war, all the people here would be young men. How could there be any old people?I don't know if the Xie family's money can play even a little role in this troubled world.

Xie Yujiao was staring blankly, when Ziyan said on the stairs: "Miss, Madam invited you to have breakfast."

In the main room, Mrs. Xu had just met Tao Laixi, and he arranged for the dowry delivery today, because it took a whole day to walk on the road, so the villagers came at the fourth watch, and they were all prepared along the way. I went to the tea shed where the team enjoys the cold and drinks tea, counting with my fingers that I will go out now, and when I get to the city, it will probably be the first quarter of the unitary hour.

When the big troops had walked about ten miles away, it was time for Xie's carriage to set off, and it was time to go to the city, which happened to be enough time to get ready to meet them.Liu Fugen had already booked an inn in the city, and invited the men who carried the dowry to drink and entertain there.

Mrs. Xu recalled what happened when she married Mr. Xie that day. At that time, it was twenty or thirty miles from Jiangning County to Xie's house, and it took more than half a day to walk. It is said that Mr. Xie was afraid of delaying the auspicious time. Already set off to greet the relatives.
