Volume 1 Chapter 5
Soon, the two girls came back, and four servants followed behind them. They brought the food to the study. Qingxian left to serve Chen Congyun to eat, and Yu Ping went out and directed the four servants to organize the room. Before Chen Congyun finished eating, a group of maids came in the yard, holding things like quilts and bags in their hands, chattering and talking to Yu Ping with a smile. Don’t say that these maids are here to help move.
Sitting on a chair and after eating half full, Chen Congyun finally could see Qingxian's face clearly without bent down. After seeing this, he realized that this girl had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, which was considered an ordinary girl. However, her age did not look very old, and she was a bit as immature as she had not grown up.
"How old are you?" After drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Chen Congyun couldn't help asking.
"Back to Master, it's seventeen!"
People are considered to be a void year in this year, which means that Qingxian is only sixteen years old. She is so young that she is a servant for others and always prepares to accompany men to join us. Chen Congyun couldn't help but feel unbearable. At the age of flowers, in the 21st century, it is the time when you can play with carefree all day.
"Where is the jade bottle?"
"Yu Ping is the same year as me."
Chen Congyun sighed softly in his heart, no wonder in ancient books, women in the old society were not considered human.
"Retreat!" Chen Congyun thought of this, and then thought that Li Hongzhang was now determined to seek peace. The Qing government was unwilling to prepare for war. He couldn't help but feel anxious and his appetite disappeared.
Seeing that Chen Congyun was not in high spirits, Qingxian took the plate outside and hurriedly called Yu Ping. After some whispers, the maids immediately calmed down and walked lightly.
All afternoon, Chen Congyun stayed in the house and didn't go out, thinking about the current situation. According to the historical process, France will fight next month. Pan Dingxin, Li Hongzhang's confidant, ran faster than rabbits on the Vietnam battlefield, causing the French army to march straight into Zhennan Pass. (Note: Zhennan Pass, today Friendship Pass: I think that the name Friendship Pass was changed, which is a bit brainless.)
Even if Li Hongzhang is willing to use me, what can I do if I stay and use it? I have a high official and a generous salary? I drive Li Hongzhang like Sheng Xuanhuai? Chen Congyun is naturally unwilling to accept it.
The sky became dark without realizing it, and she dealt with a little food served by Qingxian as if she was chewing wax. Chen Congyun fell into thinking again.
A headache! Chen Congyun, who had been sitting for an afternoon, felt a soreness in his neck. He couldn't help but lean back and gently knocked on his forehead with his hands on his back.
Suddenly, a pair of soft little hands fell on their heads and gently rubbed them on their temples. Chen Congyun opened his eyes and saw that it was the girl named Yu Ping. Yu Ping's technique was moderate and it was very comfortable to rub it. However, Qing Xian came in with a basin of hot water and squatted in front of him and said softly: "Master, wash your feet. You have been sitting for a day. You have been washing your feet and get tired. Go to rest."
After saying that, without waiting for Chen Congyun to agree, he raised his hand to take off Chen Congyun's shoes and socks, and after testing the water temperature with his hands, he then held Chen Congyun's feet and placed them in the basin.
The feet are very comfortable with hot water. Qingxian's little hands pressing and pinching the soles of her feet, and the comfortable people almost hummed.
"The Gentleman is a hero's tomb!" This sentence flashed through Shen Congyun's mind, and Chen Congyun was so shocked that he sat up suddenly, scaring the two girls.
"Are you willing to just endure it like this? Then become a member of Li Hongzhang's shogunate? Just look at history and move along the original trajectory?" Chen Congyun asked himself, and the answer was naturally no. Since he came, how can he be worthy of God's favor if he didn't make trouble?
Bang! Chen Congyun slapped the table suddenly, sneered and said, "Okay, I'll just torture him upside down."
As he spoke, Chen Congyun's face turned into a distorted and ferocious look, which scared the two girls a little at a loss.
"Are you scared?" Chen Congyun smiled apologetically and waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, prepare to rest."
"Yes, Master."
The two of them responded together, Qingxian took the basin and went out, while Yu Ping climbed onto the bed, tidied up and unfolded the bedding.
"Master, go to bed."
"Yeah!" Chen Congyun was also tired of sitting, and planned to lie on the bed and continue to plan what to do next. He got on the bed and leaned against the wall. Seeing Yu Ping approaching the door and gently closed the door, he turned around and smiled shyly at Chen Congyun, slowly carrying his back over. When Chen Congyun didn't react, Yu Ping had unbuttoned a few buttons and took off the long cheongsam, revealing the white little clothes inside.
Why is there such an incident? Chen Congyun had a short circuit in his mind. Yu Ping lowered his head and walked to the bed. When he lifted the quilt and was about to drill in, Chen Congyun came to his senses and reached out to hold the quilt and said, "No!"
Hearing this, Yu Ping suddenly stayed there as if he was struck by lightning, staring at Chen Congyun in a daze. His originally blushing cheeks instantly turned pale, and two lines of clear tears flowed down unconsciously. Chen Congyun then saw Yu Ping's appearance clearly, and there was no difference between Qingxian, but his chest was more tall and more mature.
Yu Ping has tears on her face and looks pitiful, like a little white flower in the wind and rain. It makes people feel heartbroken. She is willing to go with the flow and receive such a beautiful feeling. She has never slept with a woman in her previous life, but why think about it carefully? Since she has decided to leave, why bother the little girl and leave her virginity for her. Even if she follows another man in the future, life will be better.
"The master doesn't like me, it's because I'm not lucky. I'll go and change to the girl Qingxian now."
Chen Congyun was in a big head and lacked communication!
"You misunderstood. Even if you change to Qingxian, I will treat it the same way." Chen Congyun quickly explained, so as not to keep crying, and the girl felt a burst of pain in her heart as if she had done something to her.
"That's why we sisters are not convinced!" Yu Ping became more and more sad, standing there with her eyebrows and eyes lowered, tears falling down.
"Damn!" Chen Congyun was anxious and the previous rumor came out.
"I'll tell you this. No matter what kind of woman it is, even if the immortal descends to earth, I won't accept it today."
Yu Ping held back her tears and looked up at Chen Congyun.
Just don't cry! Chen Congyun was secretly grateful and explained: "It has nothing to do with being fond of you. You can go back and rest first. You don't have the time to explain to you, and you can't explain it clearly."
Speaking of this, Yu Ping no longer insisted. She went on to clean up and showed suspicion. Then when she went out, Qingxian's figure flashed out from the door.
"Sister, why did it come out now?"
"Shh! The master said there is no need to wait for bed."
"No way? He isn't that bad, right? That's why..."
"You're going to die!" Yu Ping quickly looked at Qingxian's mouth quickly, and then looked back worriedly. The lights in the room were still on, and the figure of Shen Congyun's meditation was reflected on the window.
One night passed.
When it was still dawn, Chen Congyun had already climbed up. There was no nightlife these days. Even if he was short of money, he would not dare to go there. He could only go to bed early and get up early.
I tried hard to recall the radio gymnastics in the yard, and gently shouted the slogan of 1234. Chen Congyun started exercising alone. Soon, the door of the room on the right gently pushed open, revealing Qingxian's little face. Seeing Chen Congyun doing exercises in the yard, his face flushed and said crisply: "Oh! The master has gotten up, he is going to die." After that, he flashed the color of his underwear at the door and shrank back.
If we put aside these two girls' attitudes and firmly implement the practice of escorting, Chen Congyun still thinks that it is a good thing to have these two girls around him, at least it is pleasing to the eye. However, things went against my wishes, and I made up my mind to leave Sheng Mansion, or had decided to go south and go to the southwest border to experience the war. It is always inconvenient to bring two girls. Besides, I am not willing to owe Sheng Xuanhuai this favor.
The sky gradually became brighter, and the figures of the two girls were busy in the yard. They cleaned up the house and fetched hot water. After a while, Sheng Xiaoqi also came in with a big broom.
"Master Shen, Xiaoqi pays you a blessing." Sheng Xiaoqi, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, stepped forward and called a thousand, looking smart. When Chen Congyun was ill, Sheng Xiaoqi was serving him a lot.
"Xiao Qi, why are you going to make a fuss? Master is calling me? I'll just call you Brother Shen and I feel comfortable listening." Chen Congyun felt grateful and intimate to Sheng Xiao Qi and spoke very politely.
"Hehe! Why do you call me a sensation? The master is the master, it's inconvenient."
Chen Congyun was speechless, this year, alas! Let him go.
While speaking, a hearty laugh came from the entrance of the yard and said, "I got back so early."
Sheng Xuanhuai came in. When Chen Congyun saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Sir!"
Xiaoqi and the two girls also put down their friends and said in unison: "My master!"
Sheng Xuanhuai waved his hand and said, "Everyone is busy with yours."
After saying that, he turned around and took Chen Congyun's hand and said, "I didn't discuss the matter of donating officials yesterday. Yesterday, the Lord of the Central Hall allowed me to have a three-day leave to do your job. I was still in bed early in the morning, and I got up after hearing the movement in your yard."
"I'm disturbing my rest!" Chen Congyun smiled apologetically, Sheng Xuanhuai waved his hand and said he didn't mind. He pulled Chen Congyun to the stone bench in the yard just as he was about to sit down, Qingxian had already taken two cloth mats to spread them on the stone bench, and said with a smile: "Two masters, the cold is heavy this morning, so don't be careful. If the master is really cold, the lady will have to blame us again."
"This girl!" Sheng Xuanhuai had no intention of being angry at all, waved his hand to signal Qingxian to go down. After the two of them sat down, Sheng Xuanhuai whispered: "I have come back, have you thought about it, what errands are you planning?"
Chen Congyun thought for a while, bowed and smiled, "There is something in the southwest right now. It is the time for a real man to make a contribution. I hope Shanda will fulfill it."
