Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 297 Secret Words from the East Window ([-])

The hut was quiet all the time, Li Wenxuan bowed several more times, but still no one responded, he felt lost for a while, knowing that he would not be able to see his grandma this trip tonight, so he had no choice but to retreat.

When Li Wenxuan led Yue Ying to the edge of the pontoon bridge, Yue Ying suddenly turned her head and said, "Miss Xiaoru, we just found this place by accident, I wonder if I can bother you to send us out of this forest now?"

Li Wenxuan was startled, and thought to himself: "Yue Ying clearly knows the way in this forest, but why did she ask Xiao Ru to lead her way? Isn't it superfluous?"

Yue Ying invited her suddenly, and Xiao Ru also seemed a little surprised. She looked at Yue Ying, then at Li Wenxuan, seeing that Li Wenxuan was also staring at her intently, she hurriedly turned around, averted her gaze, paused, and then Turning to the side of the wooden house, he said, "Ma'am, Xiaoru is going to send the young master out of Zhuangzi, can you?"

No one in the wooden house spoke, Xiaoru didn't dare to leave hastily, Yue Ying knew that the old lady in the house would not speak, Xiaoru waited like this, maybe it would be difficult to wait for the old lady's permission even if she waited all night, so Said: "Miss Xiaoru, if the old lady doesn't speak, it means that she acquiesces, so come here."

Xiao Ru whispered, "How can I do that?"

Yue Ying said again: "Just come here, if the old lady refuses, she will definitely call you, then you can just go back."

Xiao Ru struggled a little in her heart. Without the old lady, she would not have dared to make decisions on her own, but then she thought about it, if she hadn't sent them away by herself, what if the two of them wandered around in the village and were alarmed? For those of Zhuangzi, that was no small matter, so they boldly said, "Okay, then I'll send you out."

Yue Ying smiled and said, "Then thank you Miss Xiaoru!"

Xiao Ru looked back at the wooden house again and saw that there was still no movement, so she crossed the pontoon bridge with the two of them.

I don’t know how many times Xiaoru has walked this pontoon bridge. As for where are the wooden piles below, which can bear the weight of a person, and where is it superficial, she is naturally very clear, and said: "Young master, and this girl, you follow me It’s good to walk at the same pace, and don’t step on other places.”

Li Wenxuan nodded. Although he said that he has light skills, whether he has wooden stakes under the pontoon bridge is the same thing, but he feels that since the girl said so, he can honestly use the pontoon bridge, let alone now In front of her grandmother's house, it is not easy to show her abilities too much, but Yue Ying is not the case, she gently pushed Li Wenxuan, and said: "Wenxuan, I don't want to walk on this pontoon bridge, I am afraid that I will wear my boots It's wet, you take me there."

Yue Ying and Li Wenxuan have been together for a very long time, but whether it was brother Qiu or Miss Yue, they never said they showed those delicate looks, not to mention getting a pair of boots wet, but sometimes the clothes were soaked in the wind and rain , and rarely complained, according to her past temper, this pontoon bridge Yue Ying had already passed by herself, why is this today?
Li Wenxuan was confused and wanted to ask, but Yue Ying pulled him again and said, "What's the matter? You won't take me there?"

Li Wenxuan said: "No...not." He said in his heart, "I don't know what kind of trick Yue Ying is trying to play, but since she likes to play, I will follow her."

Xiaoru was already looking for the seat of Zhuangzi under the pontoon bridge and walked step by step. Seeing Li Wenxuan and Yue Ying were still on the opposite bank, she felt very strange. Just as she was about to recruit them, she saw Li Wenxuan hugging Yue Ying , with a light jump on the opposite bank, the two of them had already reached the center of the pontoon bridge, followed by a little tiptoe, and there were sparkling waves, and the two of them fell in front of themselves.

Seeing that the two of them were very close, Xiao Ru didn't dare to look at them, she blushed and hurriedly lowered her head.

Li Wenxuan was completely unaware of Xiaoru's expression, but Yue Ying was so shrewd, so he saw everything in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Miss Xiaoru has been waiting for a long time, then please take us away."

"En." Xiao Ru agreed softly. Seeing that Li Wenxuan's lightness kung fu was so good, he knew that turning over the courtyard wall was no problem, so he led the two of them to a nearby courtyard wall.

When the three of them went out, it was only a distance of more than ten feet. They bypassed a few plum trees, and when they turned around, they could no longer see the wooden house just now. Yue Ying stopped and said, "Wen Xuan, you don't have many things on your mind. Are you all confused? Now that Miss Xiaoru is here, you can ask whatever you want!"

"It turns out that Yingying called Miss Xiaoru out because of me. Alas, I'm so stupid!" Li Wenxuan thought in his heart, looked at Yue Ying, but didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of gratitude. Yue Ying smiled and said nothing. Not much to say.

Li Wenxuan said: "I want to ask Miss Xiaoru something, I wonder if Miss Xiaoru can tell me?"

Xiao Ru leaned slightly, and said, "Your Master, do you want to ask about my old lady?"

Li Wenxuan nodded, and said, "That's right, I...my grandma knows who I am, but why she refuses to see me, I really don't understand. Is there any embarrassment for her old man?"

Xiao Ru frowned, her lips moved slightly, and then she pursed her lips again. Yue Ying saw in her eyes and knew that there must be something hidden in it, but she was afraid that it would be difficult for the girl in front of her to speak, so she said: "Xiao Ru Ms. Ru, if you know something, you'd better tell Wenxuan. If you don't tell him, he might be so restless. What's the matter, he was caught, that's not good, you say, isn't it?"

Xiao Ru was really worried that Li Wenxuan would be seen by others, so she slowly said: "I...Actually, I don't know anything, but I can be sure that Madam cares about you very much. I have been with Madam for many years, Madam She doesn't seem to care much about anything, and takes everything lightly. Even when she accidentally heard some important events in Zhuangzi, she was indifferent, as if everything had nothing to do with her. Until the last time the young master came, after seeing the young master He told me to always pay attention to whether there is any news about the young master in Jianghu. If there is any news, I must tell him the old man, and I am just a servant in this village. I don’t even live in the house on weekdays. For this reason, Madam has scolded me several times, it can be seen that Madam treats you very well in her heart."

Li Wenxuan said: "It's hard for you, but... since the old man has me in his heart, since I'm here, why can't I even see him face to face?"

Xiao Ru shook her head and said, "This... I don't know, maybe... Maybe there is something wrong with the old man..."

Li Wenxuan sighed and did not speak for a long time.

Seeing that Li Wenxuan couldn't ask anything, Yue Ying thought that she could only help him, and then asked, "Miss Xiaoru, what is the relationship between the old lady and your new owner, Situ Lang?"

"Ah!" Xiao Ru called out softly, she didn't expect Yue Ying to ask such a tricky question as soon as she opened her mouth, she stammered, "This...it's hard to say."

Yue Ying smiled slightly and said, "Does that kid Situ Lang usually come here?"

When Xiaoru heard Yue Ying call Situ Lang a boy, she felt that it was very inappropriate, but she didn't like the famous words, so she had to say: "Except for me, the old lady doesn't allow anyone else to come in here."

Yue Ying smiled slightly and said, "Okay then, I understand, thank you Miss Xiaoru."

Looking at Li Wenxuan again, Yue Ying saw that his expression was wrong, and knew that he was sad, so she followed suit, but she couldn't ask any questions from Xiaoru, and couldn't think of any way to help him for a while, so she had no choice but to give up.

Xiao Ru didn't dare to delay outside for too long, and she was even more afraid that the two of them would ask another question, so she said, "Young master, you should hurry up and come with me. I'm afraid it will be bad if you delay for a long time."

Li Wenxuan blushed slightly, and said, "I...I want to meet someone."

Xiao Ru was very surprised, and said, "Who do you want to see, young master? You... you'd better not walk around in this village, lest you be bumped into."

Yue Ying also didn't understand. She didn't know who Li Wenxuan wanted to see in this village. After thinking about it for a while, she felt that the person Li Wenxuan wanted to see most should be Su Qingxue. Thinking of this, Yue Ying immediately felt a little angry. It wasn't because Li Wenxuan was sad because he didn't see his grandma today, Yue Ying would have had a fit long ago.

Li Wenxuan said again: "I want to see your wife."

Xiaoru didn't know who Li Wenxuan was talking about, and asked, "Ma'am? Which lady?"

Li Wenxuan said: "Your owner's wife is named Su and my younger sister."

This time Yue Ying and Xiao Ru were very surprised, why did Li Wenxuan meet her suddenly?Xiao Ru still hadn't recovered, she thought she heard it wrong, and asked again: "Master, you are talking about Su..."

Li Wenxuan nodded and said, "Exactly."

Yue Ying asked: "Why are you going to see her this late at night? She is married now, and you still..." At this point, Yue Ying and Xiao Ru glanced at each other, and both of them had slight smiles on their faces. Some red.

Li Wenxuan said: "Hey, where are you thinking? At that time, it was because the Su family protected me from leaving Lin'an, so Su Xiaomei married Situ Lang by accident. That's why I want to see her, even if I can't make up for it, I still need an apology, otherwise I really feel ashamed of their Su family."

Yue Ying and Xiao Ru breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and then Xiao Ru said: "So that's the case, but it's too late at this time, I'm afraid we may not be able to see each other, and if we bump into the owner, it may be very difficult." troublesome."

Li Wenxuan said: "Well, I understand, it's just that this is also my wish, to do my best and obey the destiny. If I really don't see her, I have come to my mind, then even if I turn around and leave, I don't have much regret."

Having said that, Li Wenxuan is going to make this trip no matter whether he sees it or not, Xiao Ru said, "Well, just follow me, I'm afraid it will be easy to be seen, why don't we go to the yard later How about asking this girl to wait for a while at the entrance of the entrance?"

Li Wenxuan went to see Su Xiaomei at night, Yue Ying was not happy at first, and told her to wait foolishly by herself, that would be impossible, Yue Ying was about to say no, but saw Li Wenxuan's eyes, looking at the expressionless look in his eyes, and changed his mind After thinking about it, he said, "Okay, that's it, you two go, I'll find a place to wait."

The three of them walked out of the plum garden in less than half a stick of incense in the plum forest. According to what she said just now, Yue Ying honestly found a place to hide at the entrance of the plum garden, and Li Wenxuan followed. Xiao Ru continued to walk forward. Fortunately, it was night, and there were not many people to be seen on the road in Zhuangzi. Even if he occasionally bumped into one or two, Li Wenxuan would notice it early and hide aside.

After walking for a while, Xiao Ru asked softly, "My lord..."

Li Wenxuan smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Ru, you don't need to call me son, you can just call me by my name."

Xiao Ru shook her head and said: "That's impossible, I'm a servant, and you are the grandson of the old lady. Speaking of which, you are more honorable than the current owner of the villa."

Li Wenxuan said: "Honorable? Haha, alas! My reputation is notorious, I am afraid that I am not as good as an ordinary person. I treat you as a friend. Don't say that you are honorable or not. There is no such thing as a servant."

Xiao Ru nodded, lowered her head a little more, and said, "The girl who came with you tonight, I think she is very beautiful, she is... You seem to be very close."

Hearing Xiaoru's praise of Yue Ying, Li Wenxuan felt sweet in his heart, raised his eyebrows involuntarily, and said, "Yes, she is very good and has helped me a lot. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be here today. It is also difficult to come back to Pinjian Villa to see you."

Xiao Ru secretly glanced at Li Wenxuan's face, and saw that he was happy, so she stopped talking and walked forward for a while, pointing to the big rooms in front of which the lights were still on, and said: "Zhuang The master and the owner's wife are there."

Li Wenxuan looked along the place Xiaoru pointed, and said, "I just don't know if I can go there, so I have to trouble you."

Xiao Ru said: "Naturally, you wait here for a while, I'll go over and have a look."

Although Xiaoru is also a servant girl in Pinjian Villa, she is different from ordinary servants, because she serves the old lady, the old lady likes her, and has learned a few skills from the old lady, ordinary servants dare not Offending her, even the housekeeper of Pinjian Villa has to give her three points of face, so Xiaoru went to see the situation in the room. Although there were two disciples watching the night outside, when seeing Xiaoru, she only regarded her as a Following the old lady's words, naturally there was no obstruction.

It took Xiaoru only a cup of tea to enter the room, so she backed out, walked up to Li Wenxuan as if nothing had happened and said in a low voice, "It's a coincidence that the owner happened to go out to pick up some important guest, and only the owner's wife was there. , I told her that you were outside, and she dismissed the maids in the house, you go now, but don't talk for too long."

Li Wenxuan rejoiced in his heart, and said: "Thank you very much, you don't have to wait for me here, go back quickly, I'm afraid you've been out for a long time, my grandma won't like it, the girl who came with me actually knows Lin Zi We will leave on our own after a while."

Xiao Ru smiled, and said: "Don't say thank you, this really upsets me, be careful, Xiao Ru is going now, you... Be careful in everything."

Xiaoru bid farewell to leave, Li Wenxuan looked at those rooms, sure enough, two maidservants came out from the main entrance, and then closed the door, Li Wenxuan knew that Su Xiaomei was probably the only one left in the room at this time, so he didn't think much, Going around to the side of the house, he jumped to the roof with a light jump, then followed the eaves to the rear window, and tapped lightly on the window.

Immediately a woman in the room responded, "Who is it?" At the same time, he heard footsteps approaching the window.

The window opened with a "squeak" sound, and Li Wenxuan looked inside. The person in front of him was Su Xiaomei, who was still the same person a year ago, but the long hair that had been hanging down had been coiled up. Turning around and becoming a married woman, Li Wenxuan couldn't see the mischievous look in his eyes, so he said with emotion, "Miss Su, it's me... Li Wenxuan."

Su Xiaomei knew that it was Li Wenxuan who came outside, but when they actually met, she couldn't help being taken aback, and then said: "You... Come in quickly, don't let people see you."

Li Wenxuan nodded, and lightly jumped in from the window.

Su Xiaomei said: "Sit down, I'll pour you tea."

Li Wenxuan said: "Wait a minute..."

"Huh?" Su Xiaomei slowed down, and Li Wenxuan followed her to the end, and said, "Miss Su, it's all my fault. I have received great favor from the Su family, and I didn't give you anything in return, but you are so tired...I really feel sorry for you." , I'm sorry for your Su family!"

Su Xiaomei hurriedly said: "You must not say that, it's no fault of you."

Li Wenxuan slapped his leg hard, frowned and said, "Why don't you blame me, I know all these things, I'm the one who got you involved!"

Su Xiaomei said: "Oh, don't think too much about it, it's even more out of the question to say that you're going to get married here, but I'm absolutely unwilling to marry here, but then my husband treats me very well, it's a coincidence. "

Li Wenxuan only thought Su Xiaomei's words were reassuring himself, but she still frowned. Su Xiaomei said again: "You don't believe me? What I said is true. My husband let me do everything, so I am very sorry. For a long time, he never said half a word to me!"

Li Wenxuan saw that Su Xiaomei's expression did not seem to be fake, and saw that although his face was less childish, it was much more delicate, and when he said Situ Lang in his words, there was a little sweetness in his words, so he couldn't help but believe it. Slowly said: "Really?"

Su Xiaomei smiled sweetly, brought a cup of tea for Li Wenxuan, and said, "Can I still lie to you? It's you...hehe, how are you and my sister? You didn't bully my sister, did you?"

While Su Xiaomei was talking, her mischievous look appeared on her face again. Li Wenxuan came here to apologize sincerely because of guilt, and forgot about Su Qingxue's matter, and suddenly heard Su Xiaomei's question, her heart pounded After jumping a few times, he said, "Okay... very good... everyone is fine."
