The exquisite space of the ruffian concubine

Chapter 167 "Healing"

Meng Xiaosuo was at the orphans' place, took pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and returned to Yin Renqing's temporary residence.

Time seemed to go back to the past. The two met for the first time at the foot of Mount Meng. Yin Renqing was sitting by the fire, driving two pheasants dripping with oil.

Compared with before, his appearance has not changed, his expression has not changed, only his name has changed.From afar, Meng Xiaocom felt that he seemed to be another person, a stranger she had never known before.

"I brought the things." Her face was calm, but her heart was fluctuating. This feeling was extremely uncomfortable, as if she was holding back a half-sneezed.

Yin Renqing stood up and walked forward, took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in her hand, looked around, showing embarrassment: "There is no desk here, how should I write?"

"I'll lend you my back." Meng Xiaosuo said, bending down with her back to him.

Ordinary women would follow the ancient precepts of intimacy between men and women, and dare not go beyond the rules, but Meng Xiaosuo has always been very nervous and never paid attention to these rules, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with borrowing him to write from memory.

Yin Renqing's face was slightly hot, seeing that she didn't bother about it, he couldn't say much, so he laid out the paper, dipped it in the little ink left in the inkstone, and started writing.

There are a lot of things needed for disguise, but he writes very fast, so he listed them all in a short while, and said, "It's ok."

Meng Xiaocom straightened up, took the wet paper, and asked him, "Can you teach me how to change my face?"

Yin Renqing didn't say no, but after thinking about it, he said, "I remember you seem to be able to."

"I only know superficially, and I want to worship a better master." Meng Xiaosuo said.

She thought that Yin Renqing would agree straight away, but unexpectedly he shook his head: "No."

It stands to reason that since Meng Xiaoshu said so, Yin Renqing would not be able to refuse, not to mention that it is not difficult for him to teach Yirong, but he still needs to be cautious about this matter of apprenticeship.

Why do we need to be cautious?
Because after becoming a master and apprentice, there can be no other relationship.

In this era, masters and apprentices are like close relatives of flesh and blood, and they even have to follow etiquette even more than close relatives of flesh and blood.Master, master, contains the word "father", and disciple, disciple, contains the word "son". There is an old saying that "a teacher for a day is a father for life", which is the truth.

But Meng Xiaoshu didn't know this, even if she knew, she didn't think about it at all, and asked with a frown, "Why?"

If she thinks of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" or "Outside the Window" she watched in her previous life, if she can't do it, if she falls in love with a high school or university teacher before time travel, what will happen, and she will understand why Yin Renqing Refused.

In the final analysis, Yin Renqing didn't agree, just because he wanted to leave some hope and room for himself.

He still couldn't understand Meng Xiaosu's heart, and he didn't know why she was suddenly happy and angry. Meng Xiaocom's occasional frowns were probably just because of momentary displeasure, or a thought that suddenly flashed in his mind. From his point of view, it seemed that he had done something wrong or said something wrong.

He is in his twenties, has read poetry and books, has experienced intrigue, and is used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, but he can't figure out this frail woman. It is a bit ridiculous to say, although it is true.

"Because I can't teach you." He turned his face away.

"It's really stingy. It's not a secret." Meng Xiaoshu was really upset this time. Yin Renqing taught Yin Yichan the disguise technique, but he didn't teach it to himself. Could it be that in his heart, even Yin Yichan Can't compare?
She didn't know why she suddenly wanted to compare with Yin Yichan, and she didn't want to think about these questions with obvious answers.

Everyone has timidity. Although she is very strong in other things, she is a little timid when encountering this kind of thing.

Perhaps it was because she was abandoned when she was a child that made her harden her appearance into a golden bell-covered iron cloth shirt, which seems to be invulnerable to all poisons, but in fact, as long as a tiny thing enters her heart and grasps the vitals, the whole tenacious body Externally, I'm afraid it will collapse suddenly.

Unaware of this because of enthusiasm, although Meng Xiaosu has known him for a long time, he has not spoken much. He often feels as if he has known her for most of his life, and is so familiar with her words, deeds, and actions. She even frowns habitually when she speaks, and whether the brows are raised... But when I think about it carefully, when I am with her, I am often silent.

Is this silence good or bad?

If it comes down to the good side, then it can be said that this is a kind of harmony, a tacit understanding without any sense of awkwardness.

If it comes down to the bad side, maybe it can be called "appearance and detachment".

Yin Renqing couldn't tell which one it was.

At this moment, Meng Xiaocom really didn't want to talk to him anymore, she wished she could kick him out of Linglong Space.

"I'll buy something, and you can go. Pack it up." She said coldly.

As she said that, she squeezed the Linglong Pendant and disappeared in front of Yin Renqing without shy away from anything.

Yin Renqing opened his mouth in surprise, but the only response was the breath left by Meng Xiaosuo.

Meng Xiaocom was annoyed, but she couldn't figure out why she was so annoyed, so she could only blame Yin Renqing for this matter——Damn guy, he put his nose on his face, shameless his face, and even a mere disguise They refuse to teach themselves!
Isn't it the disguise technique?If you pay a few dozen taels of silver casually, you may be able to worship a master who is infinitely better than him...

"Girl, calm down, calm down." A familiar voice rang in my ear.

Meng Xiaosuo was taken aback, and turned around to see that the old man had appeared by his side at some point.

This is a bustling street, tens of miles away from the capital, if you take a stroll here and buy something, you should not be noticed by your enemies.

Speaking of which, it seems that the only enemy who can pose a threat to her is Concubine Lan Gui.Perhaps Yin Yichan should be added, whether this person is an enemy or a friend, she still can't tell for the time being.

"Old man, when did you come out?" she asked.

"Did you forget? Old man, I can freely enter and exit the Linglong space, because my master is not you, but your elder brother. For his safety, I must inquire more about the news, so as not to miss anything." The old man said.

"What news are you looking for?" Meng Xiaocom asked.

"Of course it's about the military situation, such as when the Huns will invade, whether they will suddenly invade, or whether your future lord Yin Yichan will send troops to wipe out the Meng family army led by your brother." The old man replied.

"So that's how it is..." Meng Xiaosuo nodded, thought for a while, but was still a little puzzled, "Then you shouldn't be in the capital city or the borderlands, why did you come to such a place?"

"Protecting your brother is one of the duties, and protecting you is the second duty. If anyone dares to bully you, the old man will definitely not spare him! Tell me, which bastard made you angry?" Ask about things.

Meng Xiaocom couldn't help laughing, and said, "You clearly know what I'm thinking all the time, so why ask me about such things?"

"Isn't it more interesting if you say it yourself?" The old man also smiled, and his face was full of wrinkles when he smiled. Under his old eyelids, his eyes were surprisingly bright, "Girl, that Yin Renqing obviously didn't let you go." In my eyes, you saved his life, but he is so ungrateful, it's better not to have a close friendship with this kind of person."

"This is what you want to say?" Meng Xiaocom asked.

"What else should I say?" the old man asked back.

"You should also tell me more about his shortcomings, so that I won't be tempted by him in the future, and marry him after death." Meng Xiaocomo joked.

The old man said this because he wanted her to completely hate Yin Renqing. In the final analysis, he had already regarded Yin Renqing as an obstacle between Meng Xiaosu and Yin Yichan. Meng Xiaoshu had already seen this.

The reason why she didn't tell the truth was because it would not do her any good.

She didn't want to admit that she was interested in Yin Renqing, just like she didn't want to admit that although she looked like a fortress and was fearless, she was actually soft and warm inside, no different from ordinary people.

The old man saw through her thoughts, and said lightly, "Girl, you don't look what you think, but you are different from those rich girls who were raised in your boudoir. But it is not indifferent and numb, and it will not make people feel intimidated.”

Meng Xiaocom was happy for him to change the subject, otherwise he really didn't know how to end it.

As soon as Yin Renqing was mentioned, she lost her senses and didn't know what to say.

"Really? I thought I was a monster in the eyes of everyone." She raised her eyebrows.

"You are indeed a little weird, but most people should think that your disposition has changed drastically because of the destruction of your family." The old man said.

Meng Xiaocom shook her head: "That's just one of the reasons."

"It is also the most important reason in their eyes, but the real most important reason is not known to many people... By the way, how are you going to deal with Yin Yichan?" The old man asked suddenly.

Yin Yichan is one of the few people who knows Meng Xiaosuo's biggest secret—she came from time travel, and she is wearing a Linglong pendant, so she is different from ordinary people in this world.

"How am I going to deal with him?" Meng Xiaoshu repeated the old man's words, twitching the corners of his mouth slightly, and laughed at himself, "Naturally, we have to take one step at a time. In the face of such a powerful enemy, apart from soldiers coming to block him and water coming to cover him, What else can I do?"

"It's not the best way to retreat. Besides, he won't always be your enemy." The old native said meaningfully.

Impossible to be the enemy forever?
Of course Meng Xiaoshu knew what he was referring to, smiled and said, "Could it be that he will really become my future husband? But now I have to rack my brains to deal with him, what a joke."

"You treat him as if he had a serious illness, and now you are treating his illness. As long as the illness is cured, he will be able to return to his original appearance. Isn't it good to think so?" asked the old man.
