Chapter one hundred and ninety-two rags
After Li Lijun returned to the main house, she happened to catch the sunrise. After practicing for a while, she hurriedly changed her clothes, fell on the bed and fell asleep.
When she woke up, the sun had already risen very high.
Nowadays, no one around her will disturb her daily routine. They will only quietly listen to her movements and then decide whether to bring in three meals a day. In order to hide it from other uninformed people in the family, Mrs. Shao even sent several of her servants to
All the other maids and ladies were arranged to live in other courtyards, and they were only allowed to work in the main house when needed. A small kitchen was also built in the courtyard, and fresh ingredients were brought in from the large kitchen of the other industry every day.
Cooking for Li Lijun alone can also hide the fact that she may not eat on time.
This is because they dared to do this because Aunt Lu left her other career and returned to the Sui Palace in Chang'an. Otherwise, they would never be able to hide it from Aunt Lu. In order to hide the strange things in Li Lijun's daily life, everyone went to great lengths.
Brainless.
Therefore, Li Lijun could rest assured that she had made up for her sleep during the day before getting up and washing herself. Erhong heard the slightest movement on her side and went into the house to wait on her with a basin and handkerchief.
Erhong's eyes were red, as if she had just cried. Li Lijun was a little worried when she saw it, so she asked her: "What's wrong with you? Has anyone scolded you?"
"No, no one scolded me." Er Hong turned her head away and answered firmly.
Li Lijun knew as soon as she heard that she was angry with him, and she became more and more confused: "Did I make you angry?"
Erhong took a deep breath, turned back and glared at Li Lijun bitterly, took away the basin towel she had used, and soon ran back with the black round-neck robe she had changed into, and pulled the left sleeve of her handkerchief
The big hole in the clothes was pointed out to her: "Where did the little lady go last night? Even the clothes were torn! I can see clearly that there are blood stains on the clothes! The little lady was injured.
Hiding the secret from the slave! If the slave hadn’t discovered the hole in the clothes in time, would the young lady have planned not to tell the slave a word?!”
Li Lijun blinked, touched her nose and said, "Oh, so that's what happened. I wasn't actually injured, just a little skin on my arm. It's all fine now. I felt too sleepy after I came back, so I went to sleep first
Didn't I bother to tell you? I didn't intend to hide it from you, but I didn't have time to tell you."
As she spoke, she also pulled up her sleeves to show Er Hong the wound on her left arm. In fact, it was almost healed. There was only a red mark about half a foot long, and it was still slightly swollen, but to this extent it was
It was a minor injury and it would be fine after applying medicine for two days. She doesn’t feel any pain now.
Erhong felt that the little lady must be in pain. She held Li Lijun's left arm and looked at it for a long time, feeling so distressed that she almost shed tears: "How did it hurt? The little lady has grown so big, except for that
Tell Sanniang to push you down the rockery, I have never seen such a long wound on your body!"
Li Lijun thought for a while and decided to reveal a little bit of the truth: "Didn't I tell you that we live under Wutai Peak in Saga Mountain, and there is a toad monster over there at Sitai Peak, which is poisonous and can eat people?
The demonic snake was defeated by it and was seriously injured before being stabbed to death by my sword. This toad stayed above our heads, coming down from the mountain to eat people from time to time, just in case it would eat us one day.
, I don’t know how many people will suffer. So I thought, now that winter is here, the weather is cold, and the toads usually hibernate, I can kill it, and I won’t have to worry about it anymore.”
Erhong took a breath and asked in a low voice: "The other day, the little lady asked how the two missing people in the village over Ertai disappeared and what the monster that swept them away looked like. Was she just asking about this monster? Those two people
Did it eat it?!"
Li Lijun sighed: "I did find the clothes of two people in the cave where the toad lived, but I didn't find any bones. I guess this toad is the monster that caused trouble."
Erhong's face turned pale with fright: "How could this little lady go and kill such a powerful monster without saying a word?! What if something happens?!" She looked at the tattoo on Li Lijun's left arm again.
The scar, "Is this... caused by that monster? Isn't it poisonous? Is the little lady poisoned?!"
Seeing the panic on her face, Li Lijun quickly reassured her: "It's okay, don't be afraid. The monster has been killed by me, and it will never die again. This injury was caused by my negligence and was scratched by its tongue, but
I have a protective charm on my body, and I also wear a small protective armor inside, so there is no serious injury. It was just a little skin break at the time. I have been given medicine and the toxins have been eliminated, and now there is nothing wrong with me. Next.
I just need to rest for two days and apply medicine for another two days to ensure that there won’t be even a trace left.”
Only then did Erhong feel at ease: "It'll be good if the monster dies, it'll be good if it dies..." But now she felt at ease, she couldn't help scolding Li Lijun, "Although the little lady is powerful, she can't do everything.
Don't tell us. Although the slave is useless and has no ability to help the little lady kill monsters, at least he knows how to serve people. When the little lady comes back, she is tired. Just leave all the small things like changing clothes and applying medicine to the slave. Slave
I know that the little lady is strong and has great abilities, but she doesn’t have to do everything by herself. Occasionally, she can let the slave help me a little!”
Li Lijun laughed when she heard this and said softly: "It was my fault this time. I shouldn't have hidden it from you. I will definitely not do it again next time." Then before Er Hong could speak again, she pointed at that place.
A torn round-neck robe said, "Now I really have something to ask you to help me with. I wear this robe very well, it is convenient for movement and inconspicuous. It is suitable for going out at night, but it is a pity that it is torn and cannot be replaced."
Wear it. Erhong, can you make another one for me? By the way, take this old one and burn it with fire." She was not sure whether the robe was stained with toad venom or whether it was burned clean.
Erhong agreed immediately: "No problem, just leave the little lady to the slave! Then according to this size, the slave will make two more clothes for the little lady? It will also be convenient for changing and washing. However, it is already winter, and a single robe is not warm enough.
, I will make you a winter coat and sew a layer of fur lining inside the clothes. Do you prefer sheepskin or fox fur? Aunt Cui has a lot of fine furs at her place."
Li Lijun waved her hand: "You don't need any skins. You make the clothes first, and I will embroider the runes on them later. It's warm enough to wear in a single robe. There is no need to use any animal fur, which smells like a smell."
She thought for a while and said, "Send someone to the East and West markets to find out if there is a flower called Baidiezi from Gaochang, which looks like a ball of white silk. If there is, buy some flowers and seeds and come back."
, I am of use.”
She was also confused. She had been back for such a long time, and she didn't even think of such a thing as cotton. Sure enough, practitioners had been doing it for a long time and were not afraid of the cold and heat, so they were far away from ordinary people's lives. But she didn't need cotton.
Yes, people around her can use it too! There are also ready-made weavers in Zhao Chenji’s weaving workshop!
Li Lijun raised her head and looked at Er Hong, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly, showing a sweet smile: "Let's find another free day, get everyone together to talk, and test your spiritual roots. If anyone can practice,
