[Rainbow cat and blue rabbit] Fragrant into the apricot forest

It was noon, and the streets were already very lively.Vendors were yelling on the street, pedestrians stopped to beg for bowls of cane juice, the restaurant was full of people, and the aroma of oily smoke and dishes came from everywhere.

Xiangfu carefully protected the weak Wansha, but her round eyes looked around uncontrollably.However, she is good-looking. This appearance makes people feel no malice, but only thinks that she is innocent.

"Is it this lively in the past?"

Hearing this, Wan Sha didn't look away from her gaze on the guides in front of her, and she replied absent-mindedly: "There's nothing more than that."

Xiangfu suddenly felt that he was a bumpkin, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"After everything is over..."

"what?"

Her voice was too low, Wansha didn't hear her, and looked back at her suspiciously.

Xiangfu shook his head vigorously, showing a soft smile.

"fine!"

"It's here."

The one leading the way was an old man with gray temples, a simple and kind smile, and a calm gray suit.He found them just now, first he paid the bill readily, and then took them away, saying that he was going to his son's mansion.

Wansha was vigilant, but because of her identity, she couldn't say much to make people suspicious.And the silly Xiangfu next to her... I'm afraid it's unreliable.

The mansion in front of it is magnificent and luxurious, and the red paint on the outer wall is full of vicissitudes, as if it is full of history and has been rebuilt exquisitely.

"Zou's residence..." Could it be that the person's surname is Zou?

"Please, both of you." The old man walked ahead with a smile, "My son has a lot of work and is often away from home. This is just one of the family properties that the son has disposed of in order to find a place to live."

Xiangfu was shocked: "One of them?"

"Yes. The two of you are distinguished guests who have been told by the young master. There are not many servants in the mansion. If there is anything that needs to be done, just leave it to us."

The mansion doesn't look big, but it's really spacious inside.The two of them were led around by the old man, met the servants in the mansion, and then went to the autumn leaf courtyard specially reserved for them.

Surrounded by powder walls, the ancient banyan tree is evergreen, the lotus root color is tender in the small pond, and the nose is full of fresh grass and wood fragrance.

Xiangfu sized it up, stroked the bronze mirror on the dressing table lightly, thoughtfully: "I didn't expect this person to be quite caring..."

Most of the house is newly-built girl's boudoir furniture. The curtains on the windows are soft, and when they are brushed, there is a faint fragrance of crabapple, which circles a room of tenderness.

Intentional enough to be suspicious.

"Dou girl."

Xiangfu went out of the wing room alone, resting his chin on the edge of the pool and meditating, when he heard the old man who had just left turned back.

"It's good that you are here." The old man glanced at the wing room, took out a letter from his pocket, and handed it to her, "This is what the young master ordered for you."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Xiangfu always felt that he emphasized "you".

"...Thank you." Xiang Fu took it hesitantly.

After watching the old man leave, Xiangfu opened the letter.

A line of chic and elegant running script has the following words: "Don't forget what you said, the third watch tea room."

……Yes.

The man probably also guessed that she would be suspicious, so he came here to remind himself of what he had said.

Xiangfu curled her lips and said nothing.

After thinking about it, she squeezed the paper in her hand hard, and the scraps of paper disappeared like white snow in her hands, and the wind blew them away.

Xiangfu had things hidden in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to be idle.Seeing that the sun was setting, she went to entrust the maidservant Zhenzhu whom she had just met, and asked her to help prepare a bucket of hot water and some medicinal materials.

The tall pearl nodded with a smile, coaxing a child: "It will be ready for you immediately."

Xiangfu was worried that she picked up the wrong medicine, and told her: "Don't make a mistake, if you don't recognize it, report your name to the doctor."

When the pearls were ready in the bathroom, Xiangfu pushed Wansha over.

"This trip is divided into two groups. The most important thing is to heal you. It's been a few days, and I'm afraid that Bai Hong and the others won't be able to delay the Demon Cult for too long, so the sooner you can heal your wounds, the better."

Xiangfu moved quickly in his hands, carefully checking the quality of the medicinal materials.While speaking, she put the processed medicinal materials into the hot water.

"Internal injuries need healing, and external injuries take time. I'll try to prepare a medicated bath for you every day for three days, and then see how you feel."

Wansha listened carefully, then untied her robe in silence, and suddenly said, "What if you don't get better in three days?"

Xiangfu paused, then smiled at her: "Then try another medicine."

While waiting for Wansha's medicated bath, Xiangfu wrote prescriptions with a pen in the cubicle.After writing a few sheets of paper eloquently, she gave the prescription to Pearl.

"Ask different people to buy these prescriptions. If the pharmacy doesn't have them, forget it."

Because she was poor, she deliberately racked her brains to think of some cheap and common medicinal materials. Just looking at one of the prescriptions, she would only think it was some prescription for repelling mosquitoes or wind and cold.

After explaining, she saw that it was almost time to go to Wansha again, to perform exercises for her to heal her injuries and dredge her meridians.

After a long day of travel and dust, Wansha, who was already weak, was already very tired.Xiangfu simply unblocked the meridians and stopped continuing, and then closed the doors and windows for her, leaving a gap in the windows for ventilation, and left quietly.

In the middle of the night, the dew was heavy, and Xiangfu felt exhausted all over.

She simply took a bath, and because of the wind, frost, rain and dew in the forest a few days ago, the Taoist robe on her body looked nothing but was already dirty, so she changed into a skirt specially prepared by Pearl.

The little girl jumped up to the eaves lightly, looked carefully, and then tiptoed around.

Stepping on the moonlight, Xiangfu quietly entered the tea room.

"Not bad, not lost."

The man had already arrived, bathed in the cold moonlight, sitting by the dim candlelight, flipping through a book absently, with two cups of steaming tea in front of him.

Xiangfu touched his still wet bangs, went to sit down opposite him, was too tired to argue with him inadvertently: "What do you want me to do?"

He raised his eyes to look at her, startled slightly.

The girl in front of her was tender and green, her soft black hair was loose and damp, making her seem much calmer.After taking off her Taoist gown, the little girl was dressed in Luo Qi, and the pale pink dress was covered with budding crabapple flowers. The narrowed waist looked more and more slender, making the whole person full of gentleness and freehand brushwork.

The little girl has a delicate face, full of girlish air.At this time, the candlelight was reflected in those eyes, illuminating a piece of water.

Obviously there was uncontrollable fatigue on his face, and he was not smiling, but it made people feel very gentle for no reason.

"...For a few days of running around, thank you for your hard work."

Xiangfu raised her cheeks and wanted to yawn at first, but was startled by his sudden gentle voice, and looked at him with strange eyes.

"What did you say all of a sudden?"

The man put down the book, blinked his peach blossom eyes, and looked at her with a smile: "Don't worry here, neither Uncle Zou nor the servants in the mansion will expose you, just let them do something .”

Xiangfu raised eyebrows: "So good?"

"Since I have promised you, I will naturally think about it for you." He didn't care much about the suspicion in her words, and he pushed a cup of tea at ease, beckoning her to drink it.

Xiangfu took a sip, and was surprised to find that the cup was not tea, but milk.It was too dark at night and she couldn't see clearly, she took a sip of the sweetness to know.

"Do you like it?"

The man rested his chin, admiring the expression on her face with great interest.

Xiangfu nodded, and recalled the luxury he had seen all the way to the mansion, so he asked: "Are you the son of those rich merchants? You only practice palmistry because you yearn for the rivers and lakes... Ouch!"

Seeing Xiangfu covering his head with tears in his eyes, the man retracted his folding fan and said with a smile: "Stop reading the scriptures and talking nonsense."

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Xiang Fu covered her head and hummed.

"Then let me tell you clearly. I need a lot of medicinal materials, and it may cost you a lot of money...I can't afford to pay you back now. If you believe me, you can write a document, and I will definitely pay you back in the future."

"I believe you?" He shook his head, "If I really believe you, I don't need paperwork."

"Furthermore... as far as I know, Liuqi Pavilion is poor, even in the future, what will you give me back?"

"I..." Xiangfu faltered.

"Could it be..."

His deep eyes were a little hazy in the night, seeming to be smiling, but also serious.

"You want to promise yourself?"

"asshole!"

Xiangfu was ashamed and annoyed, so he complained.

"No! You just have to trust me, I will definitely pay you back!"

The big deal is to have the cheek to ask Miss Qiongju to borrow it. The Yuchan Palace family has a great business. Even though it is now in ruins, its heritage is enough to save her, a poor little Taoist nun.

"Okay, okay, I believe you, don't get excited." The man smiled and pulled her to sit down, and then stuffed the glass of milk into her hand, as if coaxing a child.

"Huh." Xiang Fu puffed his face, "Anyway, you remember the number, no matter how much I will pay you back. I'm tired, I'm going back to rest!"

"Xiangfu."

She looked at the person opposite, and seeing him looking at her seriously, she couldn't help feeling a little hot.

"Seven Swords...have kindness to me. If you are in trouble, I can't ignore it. Taking you and Sword Master Ziyun is to repay the kindness. You don't have to worry about everything, it's just my heart."

"I don't care about money. You can use it however you want. You don't need to pay it back. First, I want to help you, and second, I don't need it."

"Uncle Zou and the others don't know your identities. They don't talk too much, but you also need to be careful. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, so don't let them notice it easily."

"Also, my surname is not Zou."

The last sentence woke up Xiangfu who was still a little confused. The previous speculation was seen through, Xiangfu felt a little guilty, touched his nose and smiled awkwardly.

"You said... the Seven Swords are kind to you?"

"Yes."

"You've said that... I see, thank you for your help."

It was very late, and Xiangfu couldn't stop yawning.

Before parting, the man in blue shirt stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, his voice was ethereal.

"Did you use it to save money to survive in the Six Wonders Pavilion?"

"Most of the people who come to Liuqi Pavilion are poor and desperate, how can I think of asking them for consultation money?" Xiangfu said helplessly, "I don't have the reason to collect money from patients."

"Is that so..."

The man nodded and looked back at her with a serious but helpless smile.

"I never ask people for rewards, so why do you want to answer others?"
