It was a little damp under the table, and the padded jacket had big holes, so I had to squat in a corner to avoid the cold.

Rongyue shrank her neck, wrapped her clothes tighter, and heard shouting from above.

The buns came out of the cage, and the sweet smell rushed straight to the nose.He licked the corner of his mouth, licked it again, and watched the bustling outside through the gap in the tablecloth.

It's good to be lively, and while it's busy, maybe you can steal one or two.

He squatted silently, looking out from time to time, waiting for the steamed stuffed bun to cool down, until it was cool enough to grab it with his hands.

Hua Wuyou rushed into the crowd, pushing left and right, her bright red clothes dazzled her.He rushed to the front to buy buns, and quickly rushed out again.

"Shen Su! Shen Su!" He shouted while running, grabbed two with his left hand and three with his right, and his chest was still bulging.

Shen Su was squatting in front of the stall looking at the jade wares, when she heard Hua Wuyou's cry, she stood up quickly.

"Hot! Hot! Follow me!" Hua Wuyou stomped her feet.The left hand also hurts, the right hand also hurts, and the chest hurts even more.

"Who told you to buy so many." Shen Su smiled, blamed her mouth, but took it in her hand and held it for him.

"Why don't you buy so many?" Hua Wuyou blinked, "You also like to eat, I like to eat, and so do you."

"But every time at the end, don't you always finish eating by yourself? Young Master, you can't always eat it."

Hua Wuyou blushed slightly, lowered her head and smiled, but her eyes sneaked out, looking at the bun shop reluctantly.

Suddenly, he blinked.

"Shen Su, look quickly."

Shen Su looked up and saw a small hand sticking out from under the table where the steamer was placed.The little hands, dark, thin, and small, were groping along the edge of the table because they could not see.Suddenly, the little hand accidentally touched the steamer, shrank back from the heat, then stretched out unwillingly, and continued to grope.

The people around were waiting to buy buns and didn't notice.

Hua Wuyou thought it was interesting, and ran up to grab the little hand.

There was a scream from under the table, and the tabletop slammed and shook.

The bun seller turned his face, Shen Su followed behind, and quickly handed over a few copper coins: "My brother is naughty, just kidding around."

With Shen Su protecting her, Hua Wuyou didn't worry, she lowered her head and lifted the tablecloth.A small head poked out timidly, with one hand hugging the top of the head, and the other hugging Hua Wuyou's thigh.

"Master, don't catch me! I won't dare again!" Rongyue was timid, but when she was caught stealing buns, she hit her head on the table, crying in fear.

Curious, Hua Wuyou pinched his chin and lifted it up gently.The little face in his hand was dirty, and his eyes were full of tears. After wiping it, he immediately turned into a painted cat.

"Are you a girl?" Hua Wuyou looked into Rongyue's beautiful eyes.

Rongyue hesitated, then nodded quickly: "Yes, I'm a girl."

When someone caught him, he could only obediently obey. Even though he was a boy, he had to admit that he was a girl.

Hua Wuyou said "oh", then turned to look at Shen Su: "Shen Su, isn't the young master looking for a girl to serve him?"

"My lord is just joking, why do you take it seriously?" Shen Su said so, but in his heart he disliked the kid's dirtyness, fearing that the lord would not like it.

"Take it back, take it back," Hua Wuyou hooked his neck coquettishly, "Her eyes are so pretty, and so are her hands. Dress up, she must be pretty."

Shen Su couldn't resist him, so she just nodded: "If you agree, then there's no problem."

Hua Wuyou was very happy, and held Rongyue's hand, "Little sister, come home with us. I will give you food and new clothes for you."

Rongyue didn't know what their plan was, but she was so hungry that she couldn't bear him not to nod.

Even if the younger brother is mistaken for the younger sister, there is no way.

Hua Wuyou stuffed two meat buns into his hands, and walked forward by himself.Shen Su turned around and smiled, he smiled very gently, Hua Wuyou was so beautiful, Rongyue seemed to be possessed, she devoured the steamed stuffed bun while following in a daze.

After turning a few streets, Hua Wuyou flickered and disappeared.Shen Su led Rongyue into a compound.

The yard is quiet and quiet, filled with the fragrance of unknown flowers and plants.Crossing the cloister is another courtyard, and crossing again, it is still the courtyard. After two or three times, Rongyue can no longer tell the direction, and only sees Hua Wuyou's figure flickering in front of her.

Passing through several large courtyards, a more delicate small courtyard appeared in front of it, full of birds and flowers, and full of plants that could not be named in the cashmere moon.There is a room in the corner, Hua Wuyou ran into it.

"Young master! I bought you meat buns!!" he called while running, and Rongyue timidly followed behind.The threshold of the house was as high as his ankles, and he almost tripped, but Shen Su quickly helped him.

"Is it a meat bun with legs?" A gentle voice came from next to my ear, and out of the corner of my eyes, I caught a glimpse of a person lying on the soft bed in the room, holding a scroll in his hand.

"This one is Han Shaoqing, Mr. Han," Shen Su said softly, "You should salute."

Rongyue didn't know what kind of salute to perform, so she knelt down as soon as her legs gave way.

"Don't tease me!" Hua Wuyou climbed up the cave angrily, grabbed the scroll in Han Shaoqing's hand and threw it aside, "This is the girl I found for you to serve you!"

"Girl?" Han Shaoqing raised his head, Rongyue was afraid, and lowered his face.

"Little sister, come quickly and let the young master take a look." Hua Wuyou lay on the bed, and hooked his fingers at him.

Rongyue hurriedly rubbed it with her knees and knelt before the collapse.

"Raise your head up." Han Shaoqing said gently, Rongyue trembled with fear, her whole body stiffened.The little face was raised halfway, and it didn't dare to raise it higher.

Han Shaoqing smiled, and didn't force it, stood up, took Rongyue's hand and held it gently.His hands were very warm, with slender and strong fingers, Rongyue didn't dare to raise her head, she just dared to look at Han Shaoqing's hands in a daze, and let him pinch her fingers inadvertently.

"What's your name?" Han Shaoqing asked.

"Velvet Moon, my name is Fluffy Moon."

"How old?"

"14 years old..."

"Are you... a girl?" Han Shaoqing asked suddenly, her tone was still gentle, but Rongyue's whole body turned cold.

"I...I..." He murmured softly, unable to speak.

"You said you were a girl, take off your pants and let me see." Han Shaoqing smiled, but turned to look at Hua Wuyou.

Hua Wuyou blinked in confusion.

"Wuyou, you're probably dazzled when you see the meat buns, right? This is clearly a boy." Han Shaoqing said and nodded, "But I can't blame you. In the farmland, you can't even tell the difference between wheat seedlings and leeks."

"I was only three years old at that time!" Hua Wuyou called out in a low voice, "Young master teased me again."

"I didn't tease you, it was you who teased others." Han Shaoqing said, holding Rongyue's hand to help him up, "Since you have brought him here, let's stay. Go and take a bath for him, Shen Su has a look If there is any light work, let him learn to do some, and there will be no more mouths to eat at home, if there is no work..."

He paused as he said, "Just take Hua Wuyou's place, come and follow me."

Hua Wuyou was shocked: "My lord..."

"I'm not going to punish you," Han Shaoqing said softly, stroking his hair, "Isn't your Jiuyou mentality at the most critical point? I want you to find a girl here because I'm afraid that you will be too tired to do things. Concentrate on practicing."

"But you want a girl..." Hua Wuyou was full of shame.

"That's what I didn't know. There are boys who look as good-looking as you in the world." Han Shaoqing laughed.

Hua Wuyou was stunned for a moment, then blushed.

"Young master bullied me!" He jumped down angrily and pulled the soft moon, "Come on, let's go take a shower!"

Rongyue hurriedly agreed, and was dragged out staggeringly.The noisy voice gradually faded away, Han Shaoqing shook his head and sighed, and smiled at Shen Su.

Hua Wuyou grabbed Rongyue and ran to another yard.The yard was big and spacious, and several servants were washing clothes and chatting together.The two ran over all the way, and ran into a hut. There was a fire in the room. Although it was cold outside, it was warm here.

"Wash you first, and then we'll go soak in the flower pond." Hua Wuyou said while dragging a large basin and filling it with hot water.Rongyue didn't know what a flower pond was, so she nodded blankly.

Seeing that the water temperature was about the same, Hua Wuyou rushed forward and picked up Rongyue's clothes.

"I still don't believe it, take it off and let me see if it's a man or a woman!" He said while pawing, Rongyue blushed and dodged, and finally she was stripped naked.The torn cotton wool couldn't withstand Hua Wuyou's pulling and tugging, and broke into pieces.

"You are really a boy," Hua Wuyou stared at Rongyue's lower body curiously, "How can there be such a thin and small boy?"

Feeling ashamed and ashamed, Rongyue bent down and covered her legs, and jumped into the water.

The water is warm and comfortable.

"I'll wash it for you." Hua Wuyou took off his coat and picked up a soft brush.Rongyue is wandering outside, and it is hard to fill her stomach, and where there is no chance to take a bath, she just rubs it lightly, and black mud falls down.

"Dirty devil!" Hua Wuyou laughed and splashed water on his face.Rongyue groaned softly, and wiped it vigorously, revealing a fair and delicate face.

"Hey, you look so good-looking," Hua Wuyou approached curiously, "No wonder the young master wants to keep you."

Rongyue turned her head shyly, and whispered: "I...how can I be as good-looking as you."

Hua Wuyou laughed, grabbed Rongyue's hair and scrubbed it.The hair tangled with dust was dirty and messy, and the fluffy moon screamed when it was pulled.

The brush was brushed over and over again, gradually revealing the young white and tender body.There are some small wounds on the back, which were beaten when fighting for food with older children.

"You are really good-looking, my son will definitely like you." Hua Wuyou combed his hair, and then helped him out of the bathtub, "Let's go to the flower pond."

Rongyue nodded, and followed Hua Wuyou to a door.There was a thick curtain hanging on the door, and Hua Wuyou pulled it open.

A burst of fragrance rushed towards her face, Rongyue turned her head in fright.In front of it is a large pond, surrounded by light yellow and light blue gauze curtains, as thin as a cicada's wings. Surrounding the flower pond is a bamboo forest, lush and green.

"Young Master likes flowers and plants, so he bought the bamboo forest behind the Han Mansion and built this flower pond. Don't be afraid, no one will come," Hua Wuyou said as he introduced the cashmere moon into the water and got into it himself , "Young master likes to bathe and burn incense. If you follow him in the future, you must remember the characteristics of various flowers and herbs, and don't confuse them."

"I'm not...doing other jobs..." Rongyue whispered, "I just do it when I see what suits me...don't I?"

He knew that he was timid and clumsy, it might be okay to do some clumsy things, but the job of serving others... really didn't have confidence.

"See what you can do with your little arms and legs?" Hua Wuyou smiled and squeezed his thighs, "It's easy to be with the young master. Usually, you just need to fetch water and change clothes for the young master, and study with him. Things you don't know , I will teach you slowly."

After Hua Wuyou said that, Rongyue stopped arguing, and lowered her head, looking at the red, white and white flowers and herbs in the water.The bursts of aroma in the nose made me dizzy.

He seemed to have fallen into a dream, and he didn't know whether he hoped to wake up, or just kept going like this.

After taking a bath, Hua Wuyou puts on Rongyue her own clothes, and finds the smallest set, but Rongyue still thinks it's too big, making her look even smaller and thinner.The bright red satin material set off the white and tender skin, and Hua Wuyou couldn't help admiring, half praising Rongyue's beauty, and half praising herself for her eyesight.

Not long after, a servant came to report that the young master wanted to see Rongyue, and Rongyue was frightened and hid behind Hua Wuyou.

"Don't be afraid," Hua Wuyou said with a smile, "Young master is very kind, just say what you want."

Rongyue nodded timidly, and followed Hua Wuyou back to the small courtyard.

Han Shaoqing was leaning over the table to write something, when he saw the two coming in, he raised his head and smiled.He smiled more gently than Shen Su, Rongyue quickly lowered her head, wishing she could hide her face in her neck.

Hua Wuyou pushed him from behind and closed the door.The room darkened and there was no sound.

Rongyue looked at Han Shaoqing in white clothes, with soft brows and eyes, raised her head unconsciously, and looked curiously with her face tilted.He is different from Hua Wuyou and Shen Su, but he can't tell where the difference is.

At this time Han Shaoqing stopped writing and straightened up.Rongyue trembled in fear, and quickly retreated into a corner of the room.

"What are you hiding, I won't eat you." Seeing him shrinking into a ball, Han Shaoqing laughed, sat down on the chair, and waved to him, "Come here."

Rongyue didn't dare to neglect, she hurriedly walked over with small steps, and stopped when she was far away.

"Sit down." Seeing that Rongyue didn't dare to get closer, Han Shaoqing pointed to a small stool beside her, and Rongyue sat down quickly.

"Wuyou is ignorant and dragged you here indiscriminately. If you are not used to being here, just tell me and I will find you a more suitable place."

Listening to Han Shaoqing's words, Rongyue became frightened, thinking that she was rejected by the young master, she quickly moved the stool and sat a few steps closer, shaking her head repeatedly.

"Young master, I'm used to it, I'm used to it, don't send me elsewhere," he said anxiously.

"As long as you are satisfied," Han Shaoqing nodded, "What will you do?"

Rongyue opened her mouth, but didn't know how to answer.I only go to the store to steal some food, at most touched other people's pockets, how can I say that.

Seeing that he didn't talk to him, Han Shaoqing didn't force it, and asked, "Where does your family live?"

"Tongcheng, there was a flood a few years ago, and then there was a drought, and it's gone..." Rongyue whispered, maybe I don't remember anything else, but I can't forget my home anyway.

"Where are your parents?" Han Shaoqing's tone changed slightly.

"The family moved to the capital the year before last, and met thieves on the way..." Rongyue whispered, her voice getting weaker and weaker.

Han Shaoqing stood up, took a few steps closer, and patted his head.There was a warm feeling on the top of her head, Rongyue seemed to be less afraid, so she moved closer.

"I'll ask someone to clean up a room for you later. You will live with Wuyou and Shen Su in the future. If you don't understand something, just ask them. Come to my place tomorrow morning to do something, remember?"

Rongyue nodded slightly, and Han Shaoqing waved.Rongyue felt relieved, and quickly turned around and left.

"By the way, there are more." Before crossing the threshold, Han Shaoqing suddenly spoke again.

Cashmere hurriedly turned around.

"Eat more." Han Shaoqing said with a smile, stepped forward and pulled up the front of the velvet moon, covered the undershirt, and tied the belt tightly.The loose clothes were worn on the body, and they fell apart with the slightest movement.

Rongyue blushed and ran away.

In the evening, the servants tidied up a room for him to live in beside the small courtyard, Hua Wuyou and Shen Su sent clothes and decorations one after another, and took him to eat.Various dishes were placed on the small table as if to entertain guests, as well as white rice. The velvet moon grew so big that I had never seen even the rice a few times, let alone such delicate ones.Hua Wuyou was innocent and innocent, Shen Su was gentle and considerate, the two of them took a bite from left to right, until his belly was rounded.

Cashmere has never been so full.When I was full, I would feel groggy, my eyelids would fight, and I would fall asleep as soon as I closed my eyes.

After this sleep, when I opened my eyes again, it was already high in the sun.Rongyue rubbed her eyes, saw the bright sky outside the window, immediately screamed and jumped out of bed.

When he ran out, Hua Wuyou was walking out of Han Shaoqing's courtyard.

"Did you call me?" Rongyue quickly grabbed his sleeve.

Hua Wuyou smiled at him: "Young Master came to see you early in the morning, and saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I told you not to call you. I have already done what should be done for you."

"Why didn't you wake me up!" Rongyue stomped anxiously and rushed into the small courtyard.

The room was still quiet, with an unknown fragrance wafting through it.Han Shaoqing was lying on the couch reading a book, Rongyue didn't dare to speak loudly, so she stepped in and closed the door gently.

"My lord..." he whispered, his heart beating wildly.

"Did you sleep well?" Han Shaoqing raised his head and asked, sitting up.

"I...I..." Rongyue lowered her head, her face was flushed, she kept twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers, "Young master punish me..."

Han Shaoqing actually nodded: "Okay, then I will punish you, let me think about how to punish you. "

Rongyue raised her head in horror, fearing that she would be kicked out.

Han Shaoqing pondered for a while, then nodded: "I know how to punish you, go get me a basin of water."

Rongyue was full of suspicion, but she didn't dare to neglect, she hurriedly grabbed the copper basin and ran to fetch water.

The copper basin filled with water was big and heavy, Rongyue hugged her chest with difficulty, and walked slowly into the room.

"My lord...I'll fetch water...ah──!!" Before he finished speaking, he tripped hard on the threshold.

When he was about to fall, he only heard a gust of wind, and his chest was firmly supported by a hand.When Rongyue came back to her senses, she was already held in Han Shaoqing's arms.

The copper basin was also placed on the shelf, and not a drop of water spilled out.

Rongyue was very confused, when he entered the door, the young master was still on the floor, why suddenly...

"You're weaker than I thought," Han Shaoqing shook his head and sighed, "You can't even lift a basin of water. In the future, I'll find someone else to find you something else to do."

He said it lightly, but Rongyue knelt down on the ground with weak legs.

"My lord, don't drive me away... don't drive me away... Rongyue won't make mistakes again..." He begged softly, holding Han Shaoqing's leg, tears fell one by one, his little face was moist.

"Why are you crying?" Han Shaoqing leaned down and said softly, "I was teasing you. I was too careless to forget that you can't do heavy work. It's definitely not to drive you away."

"Isn't your son really angry?" Rongyue was still afraid, she raised her head timidly, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Don't be angry." Han Shaoqing smiled, took a white silk and wet it in the water, and wiped his face clean.

"Stop crying, it won't look good if you cry any more." His tone was gentle, but Rongyue cried even harder.Tears kept falling, as if she wanted to cry out all the hard work and grievances she had suffered in the past.

He never dared to cry too loudly, he would only make small, kitten-like whimpers.

"Don't cry, don't cry," Han Shaoqing persuaded gently, picked him up gently, walked to the desk, and let him sit on his lap.Rongyue is much thinner than ordinary children, and she is small and soft in her arms, like a small animal.

"Shall I teach you how to grind ink?" Han Shaoqing said while taking the inkstone, pouring some water, and slowly grinding it.

Rongyue had never seen an inkstone before, so she blinked curiously.

"Come and try?" Han Shaoqing handed it to him.Rongyue made a strong move, and the ink splashed out and stained her sleeve.

he whispered.

"Don't use too much force, grind gently." Han Shaoqing wiped his sleeve with white silk, "Do you know how to read?"

Cashmere shook her head.

"Come to me every morning from now on to teach you how to read and write." Han Shaoqing said, fetching rice paper, picking up a pen, and wrote the word Rong Yue on the paper.After thinking about it, I thought it was not good, so I changed Rong to Rong again.

"Your name, maybe it's written like this." He put down his pen.

Cashmere stared blankly.The moon characters are okay, but the velvet characters are intricate and dizzy.He rubbed his eyes and turned to observe the things on the table. Han Shaoqing didn't stop him, and let him fiddle with the brushes on the shelf, as well as stacks of snow-white rice paper and unfinished manuscripts.

It wasn't until Rongyue touched the paperweight on the desk that Han Shaoqing took his hand.

"Don't move that one."

Rongyue stuck out her tongue and peeked over.The paperweight is about two fingers wide, made of emerald, round and transparent, with a faint blue light, and the two ends are slightly raised, like a transparent blue boat, very beautiful.

Such a beautiful thing must be the young master's favorite thing, and ordinary people can't touch it.He quickly withdrew his hand and sat down obediently.

Han Shaoqing pinched his cheeks, then turned his hand and wrote on the rice paper, "The sun is at the end of the mountain, and the Yellow River flows into the sea."

"I will learn to write your name and this poem today. I have learned it, and I will teach you other things tomorrow. If you can't learn it..." He paused and smiled slightly, "If you can't learn it, I will punish you for putting the water basin on your head, and ask Wuyou and Shen Su to come and see."

"Grand...Young master is teasing me!" Rongyue blushed with embarrassment, holding back a Hua Wuyou catchphrase for a while.

Han Shaoqing laughed loudly: "If you don't want me to tease you, then learn it well. If you learn it, I will reward you with sweet-scented osmanthus cake."

Rongyue pursed her lips, lowered her head, looked at a row of scripture-like words, and followed Han Shaoqing to read.

"The sun ends behind the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea."

"The sun ends behind the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea."
