Chapter 103 Nine Heavens 25 Gossip
Changxi timidly said: "Ali, the bath room in the courtyard has a hot spring pool, and men are usually not allowed to use it, except for the three days at the end of the month. I originally asked Han Jia to come together, and while Miss Bai Ri was away If you have free time and the weather is warm, go to the bathroom to take a dip in the hot spring. But Hanjia wants to supervise Shishui to make a batch of embroidery work, if you are free, can you accompany me?"

In this world, men like to go with each other when they do things. For small things like leaving the lady's yard to go to the bathroom, it is best for the two to take care of each other and supervise each other to avoid any mistakes.

A Li is nominally the supervisor of Gui Changxi, but since A Li put on the earrings given by Yu Hui, although his identity has not changed for the time being, the people in the yard respect him a little more.Changxi asked in a negotiating tone, on the one hand because of the above reasons, on the other hand he also shouldered the task entrusted by Hanjia, so he was a little guilty.

Recently, Yuhui went to the government school during the day, stayed in the study at night, and occasionally went out to the Yihong Pavilion to inspect the business. The schedule was full, and she became increasingly indifferent to the servants other than Ali.Hanjia was worried that the lady was fascinated by Ali's beauty, and she didn't dare to question Ali face to face. She was afraid that Ali would sue in front of the lady, so she asked Changxi to find a name to ask Ali about the situation.

Han Jia thinks that Passing Water is more scheming and difficult to use, while Chang Xi is the son of an innocent family who he knows well, kind and cowardly is easier to control. Besides, Chang Xi is responsible for supervising Ali, so it is only natural to talk to Ali.Han Jia didn't dare to ask questions by herself, she was afraid that if the words didn't agree, Alido would hold grudges, so she coaxed Chang Xi into being the first bird with sweet words.

Yuhui doesn't let A Li take care of chores such as cleaning and embroidery in the yard. A Li goes to Yingyi to train during the day and studies at night.Therefore, Ali had little chance to be alone with other servants.

Changxi came in to inquire this time with the mentality of giving it a try.During the day, there are not many people who go to the private bath room to take a bath, so we can chat with Ali when we soak in the hot spring together.The baggage in his hand was a change of clothes and supplies for taking a bath, and he brought them here specially to show his sincerity.If Ali refuses, he can only think of other ways.

Ali read from the book that soaking in hot springs is good for healing. Since Chang Xi sincerely invited him, did he have anything else to do now, so he agreed with a smile and began to pack his change of clothes.Yuhui bought a lot of thick clothes for Ali one after another, but Ali still wore the standard clothes of servants in the mansion, nothing special, most of the time when it was cold, he would wear a jacket under his coat.He properly stored those gorgeous clothes in a suitcase and put them under the bed. Usually, he basically didn't move, and only the ones he often wore were placed on the front.So it was very easy to pack, there were not two or three pieces in total, and they didn't need to pack them, they carried them in their hands and followed Changxi out.

"A Li, when do you usually go to the bathroom? Why have I never met you before?" Chang Xi asked out of words.

Ali replied truthfully: "I have never been to the bathroom, can anyone go there?"

"As long as it's a servant in the mansion, it's fine." Chang Xi said in surprise, "If you don't go to the bathroom, where do you usually take a bath?"

"Sometimes the lady lets me take a bath in her room, and usually I stay by the well in the dead of night."

"Ah? The well water is so cold, how do you wash it? The north is no better than the south. If you take a cold bath in winter, you will catch a cold."

Ali said indifferently: "I used to live in the north, and I've been like this since I was a child, and I'm used to it. At my original master, slaves were not allowed to go to the bathroom."

Chang Xi couldn't help feeling sympathetic, and comforted him: "A Li, Yu's Mansion is different, the masters are good to the servants. Besides, our lady has already given you earrings, and sooner or later I will give you a title and let you off your slaves." Ji. I just hope that you can take care of us more and don't let the lady drive us away."

"Why did the miss drive you away?"

Changxi sighed and said, "Ali, Hanjia and I actually feel that the young lady has alienated us a lot recently. Apart from helping her eat and change clothes, there are few chances to talk to her. If things continue like this, maybe at some point, the young lady will call her We sent it to someone else. Some people in other yards gossip that you are spoiled and domineering and domineering, but we all know that you are not that kind of person. A Li, what trick do you have to always please the lady? Can you teach me? I don't want to argue with you, I just want to do things according to Miss's wishes, so as not to be rejected."

Yu Hui asked A Li to hide his martial arts and reading, if he didn't say that, he really couldn't make up a good excuse to answer Chang Xi's question.Ali hesitated for a long time, and the two had already reached the bathroom in the servant's yard.

The hot spring pool is not big, only enough for five or six people to use at the same time.There is no one else in the pool now, because the water from the natural hot spring is drawn, the room is full of steam, and it looks warm, comfortable, quiet and pleasant.

Seeing that A Li hesitated and didn't answer, Changxi probably had something to hide, so he didn't rush to ask, but took off his clothes and cleaned himself with hot water first, and greeted him: "A Li, before soaking in the hot spring We need to wash our bodies first. Hurry up, just the two of us now, there will be fewer people in the morning, and more people after noon, so the space will not be plentiful."

Following Changxi's example, Ali put the changed clothes on the bench beside him, took off his clothes and put them away, let his long hair loose, scooped some hot water, and poured it on his body from the head. The cold well water is much more comfortable.

Changxi originally planned to help clean Ali's body, but was frightened by the scars all over Ali's body.Those scars spread all over Ali's body, not only old wounds, but also some brand new bruises and bruises.Changxi tremblingly said: "A Li, is it true that the teacher often punishes you? Some father-in-laws are very greedy. When we were trained, we used to bribe them with money so that they could show mercy."

Changxi thought to himself that Ali was in slavery and had no monthly money, so naturally he had no money to please his father-in-law. It is not surprising that he was often beaten and punished. No wonder he would stay in bed every day or two to recuperate from his injuries. was severely cured.

A Li couldn't bear to let Chang Xi misunderstand others, so he explained with a smile: "Those are not taught to fight by father-in-law."

So Changxi naturally misunderstood that A Li's injury was caused by the young lady, otherwise it would be fine, how could there be so many injuries on A Li?That kind of injury doesn't look like the location of a walking bump.There are also old injuries on Ali's body, most of which are hidden in the body, even the inner thighs, waist, abdomen, and soles of the feet.It must be because the wound penetrated deep into the flesh at the beginning, and the scar was not treated in time, so the scar is so hideous and obvious.

Changxi couldn't help but asked: "Ali, is it because you are so patient that Miss dotes on you?"

A Li vaguely heard the misunderstanding of Yuhui in Changxi's words, and questioned: "Changxi, do you think my injury was done by the young lady?"

"Isn't it?" Chang Xi said self-righteously: "I understand, maybe that time Han Jia and I refused to accompany the lady to demonstrate the items in the box, which made the lady feel disgusted and neglected."

Although A Li can't reveal the truth, he absolutely can't tolerate others misunderstood Yu Hui like this. He justified: "Some of the injuries on my body were caused by the previous owner, and others were caused by others. The lady treats me very well now. .”

Changxi had already had prejudices, thinking that Ali was scared by people and dared not tell the truth, so he said sadly: "Ali, don't explain, I understand your difficulties. You just said that Mr. Xi didn't punish you, so that's okay." Who hurt you? Don't worry, I won't spread the word. Alas, it seems that Han Jia is right, if we want to win Miss's favor, we can only learn to endure pain like you."

The two of them were talking, and several servants came in one after another.The servants saw the shocking scars on A Li's body with their own eyes, and heard a few words from A Li and Chang Xi, which further confirmed the rumor that Miss Fourth liked to abuse the servants.

So the gossip became reality, and the young servants who originally wanted to curry favor with the housekeeper and transfer them to Miss Fourth's yard finally gave up and changed their minds one after another.

I went out for a meeting today, and I didn't know when I would be back, so I uploaded it in advance and released it automatically.

Seeing that the monthly ticket is approaching the 60 mark, I don't have many manuscripts on hand, but I will keep my promise and double update when the monthly ticket is 60, so as to give back to readers for their support.The monthly pass for women is only valid, so let's hit it hard.
