[Republic of China] The paradise of rebirth

After the owner and I were taken to the villa, Eunuch Qin led us in, through the hall and garden, along the intricate promenade, and turned eastward and westward to a courtyard.

"Xiaoxizi." Eunuch Qin called out, and an eunuch immediately stepped forward to answer, Eunuch Qin turned to me and said, "Master Du, Xiaoxizi is ordered to serve you, if you need anything, just tell him. "

"Thank you, Eunuch Qin." On the carriage, the owner of the garden had already told me that the person Wu Ye sent to pick us up was the manager of his mansion, so I quickly thanked him.

"Young Master Du, don't need to be too polite." Eunuch Qin said to Xiao Xizi again: "Take Young Master Du in, be careful with your movements, don't bump into Young Master Du's injury."

"Cha!" Xiao Xizi responded quickly, and when she was about to take me into the wing, I looked at the owner suspiciously, won't the owner live with me?

"Go ahead, don't worry about me." The garden owner raised his chin slightly, motioning for me to follow Xiao Xizi.

After he finished speaking, he followed Eunuch Qin and left, but I had no choice but to follow Xiao Xizi, who led me into the wing room, waited for me to sit down, and asked, "Master, are you thirsty?"

"No, don't be so busy, Lord Wu is in Biezhuang right now?" I shook my head, wondering if Master Dong is also in Biezhuang.

"I don't know if I'm going back to you, Young Master." Xiao Xizi replied respectfully.

I waved my hand to tell him not to be too polite. I'm just an actor, and I'm no more noble than a slave. Although Fifth Master Dong invited us, I believe that the only person he wants to entertain is the owner of the garden.

Xiaoxizi repeatedly confirmed that I didn't need to serve for the time being, so she resigned and left to prepare lunch. I frowned when I thought of the injuries to my arms. I thought Xiaodongzi would follow, but I didn't.

Although Xiaoxizi was sent by the fifth master to take care of me, it is okay to talk about feeding or other things, but when changing clothes and taking a bath, even when Xiaodongzi helped me, I was extremely embarrassed. Now Xiaoxizi is a stranger, how can I Can you accept his service frankly?

Just when I was distressed, there was a knock on the door: "Young Master Du, the little Yuan Qi." I was surprised, Yuan Qi should be in Yuanfu, Tianjin, why did he come to Beijing?

I quickly agreed, he pushed the door open and came in, and when he saw me, he saluted directly: "Yuan Qi is incompetent, let the young master suffer."

"Boss Yuan, please don't say that, you're breaking me." I hurriedly got up to avoid his salute.

"My lord, if you need anything, just ask." Yuan Qi's respectful attitude gave me a headache, and I didn't mean to blame him at all. How could he keep me under such circumstances?

"How did Manager Yuan get to Beijing?" I hurriedly opened my mouth to change the subject.

"At the order of the second master, I came here to protect the young master." Unexpectedly, this was the reason, and Yuan Qi bowed respectfully after speaking.

"There is no need for protection. You can ask the fifth master for me, can you bring one more person into the village?" I remembered what was on my mind, and it happened to be able to send Yuan Qi away. Yes, it's really awkward.

"I don't know who the young master wants to bring into the village?" Yuan Qi asked energetically when he heard that I had something to entrust to him.

"Little Dongzi from the opera troupe, I have trouble with my hands. I have to rely on him for many things. I hope the fifth master can accommodate me." I made a request. This matter should not be difficult for him, as long as the fifth master is willing to open his mouth and agree. .

"My lord, please wait a moment, Yuan Qi is going to lead people into the village." Yuan Qi bowed again, turned and left the wing.

I was secretly surprised, listening to what Yuan Qi said, he brought Xiao Dongzi into the village without going through Fifth Master Dong?But isn't this villa owned by the fifth master?Why does Yuan Qi look like his Yuan family courtyard.

No matter what, it would be best for Yuan Qi to let Xiao Dongzi into the village, otherwise it would be impossible for me not to take a bath in such a hot day, but I cannot accept Xiao Xizi to do it for me.

Fortunately, Yuan Qi appeared suddenly and solved this problem for me. Regardless of whether his protection is necessary or not, at least I can get through him if I have a request, so I don't have to face Fifth Master Dong directly.

I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but that day in the garden owner’s courtyard, I always felt that Fifth Master Dong was hostile to me. .

It didn't take long for Yuan Qi to bring Xiaodongzi. After Xiaodongzi came, he immediately took over the work of serving me. Xiaoxizi couldn't get in the way, so he had to silently stand by and help pass a teacup when he was free. .

Xiaodongzi and I stayed in Biezhuang like this. After a few days, I called Xiaoxizi over and asked, "Where's the owner?" I haven't seen him for several days, and I miss him very much.

"If you go back to Young Master, it's in the Fifth Master's Courtyard." Xiao Xizi answered truthfully.

"The fifth master is here?" My heart skipped a beat, in the fifth master's courtyard?So Master Wu is really in Biezhuang?

"If you want to return to the son, the servant doesn't know." I didn't expect Xiao Xizi to give me this answer, I frowned.

"Can I see the owner of the garden?" I pondered.

"Young Master, you are not allowed to enter Fifth Master's courtyard without permission." Xiao Xizi replied respectfully.

"Can you pass it on for me?" I can't see the owner of the garden, so can the owner come to me?

"If you want to return to the son, I will ask the manager right now." Xiao Xizi thought for a while, then threw me this answer, and then left to look for Eunuch Qin.

Before I could call him to stop, his figure disappeared outside the door, and I laughed, this impetuous temper is exactly the same as Xiaodongzi, but speaking of Xiaodongzi, he went to serve me food, why did he serve it up to now? Missing people?

At this time, Yuan Qi's voice came from outside the door. I was a little surprised. After Yuan Qi brought Xiao Dongzi a few days ago, he didn't appear in front of me again. Today he suddenly appeared. What's the matter?

Before I got up, a figure approached from outside the open door. The person was dressed in white brocade, with exquisite Suzhou embroidery on the collar collar, a white belt around his waist, and a piece of fine white jade around his waist, with red tassels attached to it. Walking and swaying.

There are silver edges rolling under the hem of the clothes, and brocade boots of the same color are on the feet. The plain clothes are not fancy, but they look dusty when someone comes. I narrowed my eyes slightly, and the person meandered into the room with a folding fan in his hand.

"Tsing Yi, we finally met." The man put away the folding fan with a "snap!", and tapped the handle on his palm, with a clear and cold voice, and a flat and unchanged expression.

"I have seen Second Master Yuan." I hurriedly got up and saluted, the person in front of me spoke, his voice was as clear as I remembered, and I knew his identity immediately, it was Yuan Kewen, the second son of Governor of Zhili.

"You don't need to be too polite, you are still injured, sit down quickly." The second master frowned slightly, said lightly, then walked to the table, slightly lifted his clothes and sat down.

I never thought that the second master would come to Beijing in person, so I sat at the side anxiously, secretly looking at the person in front of me, this is the second master Yuan, who was famous in the capital in the past, he was really good-looking and suave Pianpian boy.

Yuan Erye's face was indifferent and expressionless, his willow eyebrows were slightly raised, his eyes were dark and deep, and when he stared at people closely, he seemed to be sucked into the vortex in his eyes. .

I murmured in my heart, with this appearance, it's no wonder that I was able to live among thousands of flowers in the last life, without a single leaf touching my body. I think Yuan Erye also used this gentleman's appearance like jade to spoil countless true hearts.

Before I knew it, I classified Yuan Erye and Liang Zhongbo as the same kind of people. They both put on a sanctimonious appearance, but they did so many dirty things.

So I sat on the sidelines, staring at the table without looking sideways, and paid no attention to Yuan Erye. No matter what Yuan Erye's intentions are, I have already injured my arms. Injury, I have to admit it.

"Why don't you speak?" After a moment of silence, Second Master Yuan's light voice sounded.

"The little one has nothing to say." I replied a little stiffly. I really had nothing to say to him. What did he ask me to say?

"...You seem to be dissatisfied with me?" I didn't expect Second Master Yuan to be so perceptive and ask so directly.

"You don't dare." I said in a slow tone, with my head lowered.

"Raise your head and look at me to answer." Second Master Yuan said coldly, with a hint of anger hidden in his voice.

"The little one is not dissatisfied with the second master." I took a deep breath secretly, raised my head to look directly at him, and replied in a flat voice.

"He also said that he has no dissatisfaction with me, and his face is so tense." The second master saw my expression clearly, and glanced at me lightly, but the corners of his mouth curled up a little, but then he returned to his original state.

I blinked, Erye Yuan just smiled?Although it was only for a moment, it surprised me very much. This Second Master Yuan is so weird, knowing that I am dissatisfied with him and not to be annoyed, he still smiled?

And this Second Master Yuan seems to be the same age as me. He is only fifteen years old. He has a straight face and treats people coldly. Even if he is born with a good appearance, is there any girl who dare to approach?

Or does it turn into soft fingers when facing the girl's house?Otherwise, how can he wantonly climb flowers and break willows without mercy?Presumably, he was facing himself, who is also a boy, so the second master didn't bother to greet him.

Huan was slandering in my heart, but it didn't show on my face, only my eyes turned slightly, I didn't expect the second master to look over suddenly, and said lightly: "Are you swearing in your heart again?"

I widened my eyes slightly, how did Second Master Yuan know that I was secretly scolding him in my heart, I quickly regained my composure, and cleared my throat: "Where is Second Master, how dare I scold you secretly in my heart."

"Did I say you were scolding me?" Second Master flicked his sleeves and said casually.

I was so choked that I had nothing to say, and then I was very annoyed, yes, the second master didn't say that he was the one I scolded, didn't I have 300 taels of silver here?

"Yuan Qi." The second master ignored me, and ordered Yuan Qi to serve the dishes. Not long after, the table was full of food. I looked at the rich dishes in front of me and secretly swallowed my saliva.

But Xiaodongzi was still nowhere to be seen, and I sat at the table helplessly. Does this mean that I can see it but not eat it?The table is full of my favorite dishes, but I can only stare blankly, just when I am filled with resentment──

"Will you get full just by looking at it?" Second Master Yuan held a porcelain bowl in his left hand and a spoon in his right hand, handed it to my eyes, and said indifferently, I stared blankly at his posture, is he planning to feed me himself?
