Chapter 52 Shocked
Chapter 52 Shocked
In the distance, the sky was misty, and the roofs with scattered heights were covered with a thick layer of white snow.
"Why did the Immortal get up so early? The snow is still falling, and we can't go to Phoenix Town today."
When Shen Yan heard this, she turned her head and saw Nie Xiu taking a plate of food from a maid and walking towards him.
"I'll take a look at the plum blossoms." Shen Yan said, turned around and opened the door and walked in.
Nie Xiu walked into the room with Shen Yan, put the plate on the table, lowered his eyelids and hesitated: "Xianzun, how about... Shall I pick some plum blossoms and put them in the vase?"
"no need."
Shen Yan sat down on the mahogany chair beside the table, took a sip of the steaming chestnut porridge in the bowl.
"Nie Xiu, eat, I'm not hungry."
He put down the bowl and stood up, took off the cloak and threw it on the bed, then went to the dressing table in the corner and sat down to comb his hair.
Since coming to Lin'an County, Nie Xiu has eaten with Shen Yan every day, and Shen Yan always claims that she is full after one or two mouthfuls, which made her originally well-proportioned figure look thinner now.
Nie Xiu sat alone at the table, ate a few pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, took a few mouthfuls of porridge, raised his eyes and saw that Shen Yan's hair had not been combed, so he put down the bowl, stood up, walked to the back of Shen Yan's chair, and said softly: " Xianzun, let me comb it for you."
"En." Shen Yan didn't refuse.
His thick and soft long hair is scattered behind his back, like a waterfall pouring down from a mountain pool.
Nie Xiu took the wooden comb from Shen Yan's hand, picked up a section of long hair and combed it slowly, and suddenly saw a strand of white hair intermingled with the long black hair.
A few days ago, he also combed Shen Yan's hair, and there was not a single white hair in his head. Why did white hair grow on his head in just a few days?
"Xianzun, you have a white hair on your head, may I pull it out for you?"
"I have gray hair?" A trace of surprise flashed in Shen Yan's eyes.
"Only one." Nie Xiu hurriedly added.
"Unplug it."
"Xianzun, bear with the pain."
"Ah."
When Nie Xiu pulled out that conspicuous white hair for Shen Yan, Shen Yan frowned slightly.
"Look, Immortal," Nie Xiu moved the pulled out silver thread to Shen Yan.
"Throw it away." Shen Yan waved her hand without looking at it at all.
Nie Xiu opened the door and threw away the white hair, then closed the door and went back behind Shen Yan, picked up a white ribbon on the table and tied Shen Yan's long hair up high.
"Xianzun, if you tie your hair higher, you will look more energetic."
"Ah."
Shen Yan looked at her own face in the yellowed bronze mirror, she was pale and thin, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was forced out, which looked really fake.
As soon as he got up and put on his robe, there was a "dong dong dong" knock on the door, and Nie Xiu put down his comb to open the door.
"It's Master Li, please come in." Nie Xiu turned sideways to let Li Chuan into the room.
The chunky county lord Li Chuan walked in slowly with his hands behind his back, and said to Shen Yan with a smile: "Isn't the immortal living in Li's mansion recently?"
"Get used to it, please worry about it, sir." Shen Yan asked Li Chuan to sit down, and the girl outside the door brought tea.
Li Chuan sat down in an armchair with a big belly, and said, "Where is the fairy? It's our Fenghuang Town that has trouble with the fairy."
"It's my job to help the adults keep the people in one side safe." Shen Yan, who was sitting on the other side of him, had a stern face, and her calm voice suddenly became louder.
"The Immortal is worthy of being a living Bodhisattva in the eyes of the world!" Li Chuan touched the hard stubble on his chin, sighed for a long time, then stood up and said, "Today Li will use tea instead of wine, and offer a cup to the Immortal. I express my deepest gratitude to Lee."
After finishing speaking, Li Chuan picked up the teacup on the table with one hand, lifted the tea cover with the other, slightly blew on the steaming tea in the tea bowl, and drank it with his head raised.
"My lord, I'm overwhelmed." Shen Yan also picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Li is telling the truth, and he has no intention of complimenting at all." Li Chuan smiled, and the fat on his fat face squeezed together, and his eyes were even narrowed.
At this time, the door suddenly opened with a "squeak", and the cold wind blew in with snowflakes outside.
A young, beautiful girl stumbled into the house with tears and snot in her nose.
"My lord, you have to decide for Huan'er! Huan'er...Huan'er..."
When it comes to excitement, people stick to the short and fat Li Chuan like a piece of gum.
"Is there anything you can't wait for me to go back and say, you didn't see any guests here?" Li Chuan nudged the girl's shoulder, although there were many reproaches in his mouth, his face was full of pampering.
"I don't, if you don't take good care of your tigress, I won't live." The girl shook Li Chuan's arm, crying pear blossoms with rain.
"What happened to her?" Li Chuan immediately frowned when he heard the word "Tigress".
"Early this morning, she broke into my room and insisted that I seduced her eldest son Li Wentao, and told me to either get out of the house by myself, or she would tell you about it herself, anyway, I will never have good results in the future eat……"
"Bastard! That bitch can say anything. It seems that I gave her too much face."
After hearing this, Li Chuan's angry face turned into a liver color, and then he turned his head and forced a smile from the corner of his mouth.
"Let Xianzun laugh, Li will go to deal with the housework first."
"Your Excellency, please."
After sending Li Chuan away, Nie Xiu said angrily, "That concubine doesn't look as old as his daughter, she's really despicable."
"One is for money, the other is for sex, each takes what he needs." Shen Yan didn't have a big reaction, and it's not surprising that such things have happened a lot.
Nie Xiu turned his head to look out of the window, and suddenly said, "Xianzun, let's go outside for a walk."
"Isn't it still snowing outside?" Shen Yan asked.
"Xianzun, I heard from Qing Huan that there is a plum grove in Lin'an County, and there is a hot spring behind the plum grove. It is especially beautiful when it snows. Let's go and have a look and relax along the way."
After pondering for a while, Shen Yan nodded in agreement.
The two of them put on their big cloaks and went out under the umbrella, walking in the snow with one deep foot and one shallow foot.
In the air, the white snowflakes danced like light butterflies, and then fell slowly.
There are very few pedestrians in the market, and there are no stalls. Only the shops on both sides of the street are still open for business.
The two walked around for a long time, and finally saw a bright red plum grove.
The plum forest exudes a burst of fragrance, which is so fragrant that it can be smelled from a distance.
When the two walked closer, they saw the round buds on the branches of plum blossoms, like rose-colored lanterns, blooming neatly in rows and rows.
After stopping for a while, the two of them walked through a cobbled path between plum forests, and finally saw the steaming hot spring not far away.
Nie Xiu put away his umbrella and opened the way ahead. When he was about to approach the shore, he saw a pile of gray and white robes lying on the rocks on the shore.Shen Yan from behind followed up and also saw the pile of robes.
"Immortal Venerable?"
"Let's go back." Shen Yan said in a muffled voice, and was about to turn around.
At this time, there was a sound of "哗啦啦", and a pair of people embracing each other suddenly appeared in the hot spring, and snowflakes scattered on their long wet hair.
The two of them kissed so passionately that they didn't notice the people on the shore.
Seeing this scene, Nie Xiu was completely shocked and forgot to move.
Shen Yan's eyes widened in shock, and the umbrella in her hand fell to the ground with a "click".
Because the pair of ecstatic people in the hot spring were not a man and a woman, but two men.
