Getting stronger with age
Liu Yunxiang forgot how he left the bamboo forest and how he walked out of the garden. When he returned to the courtyard and stood in the sun for a long time, the coldness in his body faded away.
In the evening, the old lady invited them to have dinner in the east courtyard, and Liu Yunxiang also went there.
The banquet was arranged from inside the house to outside, and the host sat inside. Naturally, they and the jugglers had to sit outside. But everyone was still very happy, very happy.
"There should be braised pork elbow. Don't try to steal it from me!"
"I want to eat soy sauce bones!"
"I want to eat sheep's hooves!"
Jin Haitang patted the table and whispered: "Everyone, please stop spitting and don't embarrass me."
Liu Yunxiang's mind was filled with that face, and he was always uneasy.
"What's wrong with you?" Jin Haitang asked.
Liu Yunxiang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "I'm just curious. Your Feiying Village is so powerful. You should be the leader in the bandit world. How can you be so... uh, down and out?"
"We at Feiying Village are upholding justice for heaven. We will never bully good people, but only rob bad people." Sister Hong said with a look of self-admiration.
Liu Yunxiang exclaimed, he was really surprised. It turned out that everyone in Feiying Village was a bunch of righteous bandits.
"so what?"
There are so many bad people in the world, they can't take them away.
Jin Haitang hugged Liu Yunxiang and sighed: "But often bad people feel guilty because they have done bad things, and there are many nursing homes at home, which is more troublesome."
"You can't beat it?"
"There's no need to say it so bluntly."
At this time, two people came in from the hanging flower door, followed by several maids and servants. Liu Yunxiang was surprised when he saw the man walking in front.
"He is not as handsome as the second boss." Jin Haitang whispered.
Liu Yunxiang looked away and glared at Jin Haitang, "Who is this man?"
"Li Hang, the governor of Lianzhou."
"What about the woman next to him?"
"Of course it's Mrs. Li."
Liu Yunxiang watched the governor and his wife go inside. After a while, two girls and a young man came in. They were Mrs. Li's two daughters and a son.
As the banquet began, the room was filled with laughter and laughter, and it looked like a very harmonious family.
"Why are you stunned? Eat quickly." Jin Haitang reminded her.
Liu Yunxiang came to his senses and just picked up the chopsticks when he saw that the cups and plates in front of him were in a mess.
"No, I'll give you some pig's feet." Jin Haitang reluctantly said.
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "No, you can eat."
After the banquet was over, Liu Yunxiang returned to the house, but couldn't sleep. Hearing some movement outside, Liu Yunxiang put on his clothes and looked out the window and saw a dark figure slipping out.
She thought for a moment, then went to Jin Haitang's room across the street, opened the door and saw that it was indeed her.
Jin Haitang must have had another purpose in coming to the Governor's Mansion, right?
Thinking of making peace with him like this, Liu Yunxiang secretly followed him.
I walked through the garden, entered the bamboo forest in the dark, and finally came to the courtyard.
A little rabbit lantern was lit in the courtyard, and under the bright light, Li Hang was washing the woman's feet. He was kneeling on the ground with one knee, looking very pious.
The woman acted like a naughty girl and used her toes to hook the water into the man's face. The man was not angry and even kissed her toes lovingly.
"Zheng'er, how about I wash your feet for the rest of my life?"
The woman didn't say anything, she just stubbornly pushed her foot into the man's mouth.
The man was amused by her, stood up, picked him up, and entered the house. Through the silhouette on the window, Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but blush, and slowly squatted back.
"Tsk, you'll get stronger when you get older!"
Liu Yunxiang was startled and turned around to see Jin Haitang beside her, watching with interest.
"Whoa whoa whoa!"
Liu Yunxiang angrily covered her eyes with his hands, "Don't look at anything inappropriate!"
"Are you polite to a robber?"
"Irregular old man!"
"Who stays up late at night and sneaks around behind people? Is this what serious people do?"
Liu Yunxiang knew that she was talking about her, so he asked dully: "What do you want to do in the Governor's Mansion?"
"nonsense!"
"Could it be?"
"Of course it's a big deal, otherwise you think I care about the few taels of silver I get from performing as a performer?"
Liu Yunxiang gritted his teeth, she actually believed her nonsense about having too many skills to take care of herself.
The man finished his merrymaking and left. Through the window, he could see the woman sitting up, getting dressed first, and then starting to comb her hair, over and over again. Just when Liu Yunxiang thought she would comb her hair until dawn, she suddenly said
Open your mouth with the light on.
That big mouth frightened Liu Yunxiang to the point where he leaned back.
"It's worthless!"
Jin Haitang gave her a hand, then led her up and started to walk inside.
"You you..."
Dang, Dang, Dang! Three sounds.
"No, she invited us into the house."
Liu Yunxiang covered her mouth and stepped back subconsciously, "Do you know her?"
"know."
"she is?"
"An old friend."
When saying this, Jin Haitang took a deep breath.
Everywhere in the house was exquisitely decorated. Then he turned to the east room. There was a gust of wind when he entered the door. When he entered, Liu Yunxiang found that the woman had already opened the window.
Thinking of what just happened in this room, Liu Yunxiang felt a little uncomfortable.
The woman still lowered her head and fiddled with the wick of the candle, and then the flame went out, which made people feel a little scared.
Jin Haitang sat down and took out a seven-inch short knife from under the pillow, "If I were you, I would have stabbed him to death just now."
"hehe."
This sound seemed to come from the chest, which sounded strange, but Liu Yunxiang understood it immediately.
This woman has no tongue!
"Killing...him...isn't fun..." the woman said with difficulty.
People without tongues can also make sounds, but it is more difficult. Not only did this woman have no tongue, but her mouth also leaked, so she relied half on listening and half on guessing.
"That's right. If I were you, I wouldn't kill him. I would keep him and play with him slowly."
"Oh."
At this time, the woman raised her head and looked at Liu Yunxiang. Her eyes were extremely cold at first, then gradually became gentle, and gradually became somewhat loving.
Liu Yunxiang straightened his back, not letting himself be rude out of fear.
Jin Haitang patted Liu Yunxiang's arm and said, "You're not polite, call me aunt."
"ah?"
"Scream!"
Under Jin Haitang's urging, Liu Yunxiang had no choice but to call out dryly: "Aunt, aunt."
The woman nodded, her eyes still moist. She got up and got out of bed, took out a large cloisonné enamel jewelry box from her dressing room, then walked to Liu Yunxiang and stuffed it into her arms.
Realizing that this woman was going to send her away, Liu Yunxiang quickly pushed away.
"I can't have it!"
The woman stubbornly wanted to give it to her. Liu Yunxiang felt the weight of the box and was even more embarrassed to accept it. "It's too expensive, I can't take it."
