Beyond Gold and Jade [Rebirth]

The child sat on the couch, seemed very satisfied, nodded again, raised his hand to pat the little white tiger's furry head, and said with a smile: "Big silly cat."

How did the little white tiger know that it got such a silly name for no reason, thinking that the master wanted to play with him, he hurriedly rubbed his small head against the child's palm, stretched out his claws, and grabbed Ye Chongjin's hand with the pink pad, wailing, Her bright yellow eyes were filled with joy.

Ye Chongjin lowered his eyes and caressed its soft fur, and called Dashamao softly. Seeing that the little white tiger responded to the name, he grinned: "Very well, you will be called this name from now on, remember it."

The little white tiger tilted his head, and suddenly bit the corner of the child's clothes, trying to drag him outside to play.

Because of the hot weather, the child was only wearing a thin inner shirt in the room, and the high-quality cloud silk brocade dress was almost torn, so Madam An stepped forward to stop it, and Ye Chongjin only waved her hand.

He Fang came back from the Duke of Yue's mansion, still a little tired, naturally he didn't want to make trouble with it, but he didn't want to spoil the little guy's interest, so he leaned on the little white tiger's back and said, "It's good to go outside for a stroll."

As soon as the words fell, the little white tiger had already jumped off the couch with him on its back.If this tiger cub stood upright, it would only be a little taller than Ye Chongjin, but its limbs were strong and strong, and it let out a low whistle from its throat, which was a bit majestic as the king of the forest.

What's rare is that he has an extremely docile personality and is willing to get close to others. It can be seen that Gu Chen has put a lot of effort into training.

Thinking of this, Ye Chongjin's face softened, and his white arms like jade lotus root wrapped around the little white tiger's neck, rubbed the soft fur on its neck, and muttered: "I am getting more and more childish, I really think of myself as a seven-year-old child No."

Naturally, the little white tiger didn't understand, and led its owner to mess around in the yard, biting off a few precious flowers and plants, making a mess of the delicate flower garden, and going to the pool to frighten the fish in the water. The red koi was frightened and ran away...wherever this person and beast went, it was a mess.

Enough of the trouble, thinking that the servants in the yard would have a headache for a long time, Ye Chongjin finally had a conscience, and called someone into the house, and Nanny An chased them out with the clogs worn by two children, and put them on for him herself.

The child yawned and said, "Mama, Ah Jin is sleepy, go to sleep, you can take the big cat to feed, the cub must eat more meat to grow mighty."

Nanny An hurriedly agreed, but she laughed in her heart, and said she didn't care, but she was hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

After the child kicked the clogs into the inner room to rest, Madam An led the little white tiger to feed it.

Although this little white tiger won't hurt anyone, its temperament is actually very noble. Except for its own little master, no one else cares about it, let alone play with others. Only when Nanny An wants to feed it, it will get a little closer Some, but only in response.

Nanny An threw a processed reed chicken into the dining bowl. The meat was plump. The little white tiger rushed over and bit it with a whimper. There is the foolishness when playing with children.

Seeing that it was eating happily, Nanny An couldn't help smiling, but after a while, she couldn't help sighing: "It's a tiger anyway, and it was raised by His Highness the Crown Prince himself. It’s always bad to hear.”

Xia He heard this sentence as she passed by, and interjected: "Nurse is too worried, a humble name is easy to support, isn't it?"

Nanny An laughed and scolded: "I will give you a common name another day, so that you can talk more."

Xia He chuckled and walked over to rub her shoulders.

========

At night, it began to rain heavily.

One autumn rain and one cold, when autumn is about to enter, suddenly there is a heavy rain, the original heat seems to be washed away at once, leaving only the noise of the pattering rain.

Tonight is the second-class girl Qiuzi on duty. Hearing the sound of rain, she lit a candle and went into the inner room, carefully closed the slightly open pear flower window, and walked to the couch to see how the little master was sleeping. I saw a pair of black eyes, shimmering in the dark night, like crushed stardust.

She was startled, and the candlestick in her hand almost fell to the ground. She calmed down and said in a low voice: "Little master, you...you haven't slept yet. Could it be that the servant woke you up."

Ye Chongjin shook his head at her, even though he had spent seven years in Ye's house, he still couldn't change his habit of being easy to wake up.Hearing a little movement at night, he subconsciously wakes up, holds his breath quietly, and waits for the enemy who will appear from nowhere.

Sometimes he also thinks that this life may be his imagination, when he wakes up from the dream, the flawless face of that person is still in front of him, he will call his name with a familiar hoarse voice, and hold his arms Waist, buried his face into his neck, asked him why he didn't wake up, what did he dream about, did he appear.

That person became so domineering that he even wanted to monopolize his dreams.

Chasing away the complicated thoughts in his mind, he asked softly, "What time is it?"

Qiu Zi hurriedly said: "Go back to my little master, the third watch is over, and it's raining heavily outside, the servant girl saw that the heat seemed to dissipate, so she closed the window, so as not to disturb the little master to rest."

"It's still early, go to bed, I'm going to bed too."

Qiu Zi nodded, and was about to step back, but the child's dazed expression staring at the night just now always appeared in her mind, inexplicably, she felt that the eyes contained infinite loneliness, and after thinking about it, she felt that she wanted to Too much, how old is the little master, who knows what loneliness is.

She thought about it, and then asked again: "Little master, would you like a cup of hot tea? I heard that adding some milk can help you sleep."

Ye Chongjin smiled at her and said, "No, I don't like the smell of milk." Although he didn't drink it, he appreciated the kindness.

Qiu Zi was dazzled by his smile, so dizzy, she held the lamp and went back to sleep.

When she left, there was only some light in the room from the lamp outside the gauze tent. Ye Chongjin lifted the thin quilt, and in the dim light, searched for the little white tiger snoring beside the bed.

With bare feet, he walked up to Xiaohu and called out, "Big cat, big cat..."

The little white tiger slept very soundly, and was not very familiar with the name, so he just flicked his long tail and continued to sleep on his own.

Ye Chongjin came up to him and scratched its ears with its soft tail. After teasing for a while, the little white tiger finally woke up, glanced at him, and drooped its eyelids again.

Ye Chongjin naturally refused, and dragged it onto the couch with its two hind legs. This little guy was extremely clever, and when he sensed Ye Chongjin's intentions, he kicked his front legs and immediately jumped onto the couch, occupying half of the bed. The naughty boy was finally satisfied, hugging the fluffy little tiger, he fell asleep after a while.

========

The next day, the weather cleared up, but the sky was a clear blue. The rain last night washed away the dust, and even the peach tree in front of the window looked extraordinarily green, as if it had been repainted with fresh colors everywhere. breath.

The child got up from the couch, his long and smooth black hair hanging on his shoulders, falling on the little white tiger dozing behind him.

Chunyi said in surprise: "The little master is willing to let the big cat sleep on the bed."

Although Ye Chongjin named the little white tiger "Big Silly Cat", he didn't call it that himself, and of course others didn't dare, so he just called him "Big Cat", which was a good name anyway.

Xia He laughed when he heard the words: "That's right, the little master only likes big cats, and he doesn't care about our little auspiciousness at all." He poked at the birdcage by the window, "It's rare that I have taught it how many cats these days. In a word, I am afraid that it will be difficult to please the master."

The little parrot blinked its pea-sized eyes, poked the trough with its bright yellow beak, and then called out: "Master is lucky, master is lucky."

When it yelled like this, the girls in the room were very pleasantly surprised. Everyone knew that parrots could talk, but their little master couldn't, and they didn't have the patience to teach them. Now listening to it talk, everyone surrounded it come over.

Ye Chongjin was originally sitting on the couch, but upon hearing this, he hurriedly got out of bed to have a look.This parrot is really beautiful. It has blue feathers all over, a green halo around its neck, and bright red paws like a rose. Such a beautiful little thing, even if it can't speak, it's worth keeping.

But now this little thing can actually talk.

Xia He poked the parrot's head again, and said, "Xiao Jili, change another sentence."

The parrot stopped for a moment with its head tilted, and said: "Ruyi Langjun."

As soon as it finished speaking, Xia He's face turned green.The girls next to her covered their mouths and joked, "Could it be that sister Xia He wants to get married? How can you teach Bird to say such things?"

Xia He was very wronged, she taught the stupid bird a lot of words, who knew it would memorize all these useless things.

Ye Chongjin didn't care. He added some bird food to the trough, and poked its head with his hand. The little parrot lowered his head, took a bite, and said slowly, "Everything is going well."

It's so good-looking, but no one laughed at it anymore, they all clamored to teach it to speak, and Xia He couldn't teach it to be a good parrot.

They were playing and the child looked around and asked, "Why didn't you see Mammy?"

A maid gave her a little blessing and said: "I said I went to the front yard to have a look. The master came back late last night. I heard that something happened to the Duke of Yue's mansion yesterday. This Mr. An is also very unlucky. It's just that he died early. Go to the funeral." Something happened to delay the time."

Ye Chongjin asked subconsciously: "Could it be related to the royal family?" He still remembered that Gu Chen's injury hadn't healed, and that person didn't take his body seriously, so what should happen if something happened.

It was rare for Xia He to be a little cautious, and said in a low voice: "I have heard about it, but I have never heard that the royal family was involved. It seems that the Duke's wife went crazy and made a big fuss at the funeral."
