Chapter 403: Xiao Chuanzi (I)
Seeing that the little eunuch kept rubbing his chest, and there were clear footprints on his clothes, Yuan Fang asked, "What's wrong?" Kicked by whom? ”
The little eunuch secretly glanced at Sang Rou, he didn't dare to sue in front of others, he thought he was unlucky and said, "No, I accidentally bumped into it." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Yuan Fang glanced at Sang Rou, who was full of shame, looked at the footprints on the little eunuch's chest, which were obviously combat boots, reached out and hugged the little eunuch's shoulders and said, "I wronged you, we did something wrong, don't worry, I will compensate you, by the way, what's your name?" ”
The little eunuch looked at Yuan Fang in surprise, he never thought that this big man in front of him would actually apologize to an insignificant little eunuch in front of him, this is something that has never happened before, he is a eunuch, a small person at the bottom of the palace, and the other party is the closest person to the three highnesses, the gap between the two sides is so big, the little eunuch knows very well, even if the person in front of him kills himself, no one will say a word for himself, before, the little eunuch has also been bullied and suffered a lot of grievances, but the other party is stronger than his own status, He could only admit that he was unlucky, but the person in front of him apologized to himself.
The little eunuch's head was full of chaos, and Yuan Fang's words didn't react for a while, until Yuan Fang asked the second time, he came back to his senses, and hurriedly replied: "If you go back to the adult, the slave's real name is Lan Baichuan, you can just call me Xiaochuanzi." ”
Yuan Fang nodded: "Xiao Chuanzi, a good name." ”
Yuan Fang asked Sang Rou and Yuyue: "Did you find something to eat?" ”
Sang Rou slapped her head and turned around and ran, and Yuyue followed with a sigh, and after a while, the two women came over with a food box, but the food box was full of soup and water.
Yuan Fang looked at the soup that was dripping on the ground all the way, and complained: "I said that you two can't be steady, and everything inside has been spilled." ”
Sang Rou was dissatisfied and said: "It's not that I'm worried about you, I just saw that you were lying on the ground and could take care of so much, if you were not careful, the food box would fall, it's okay, you should still be able to eat." ”
When I opened the food box, I revealed the delicate tableware inside, but the dishes that were originally properly placed were now all crowded in one direction, and they looked similar to the folding baskets of a restaurant.
Yuan Fang is not a picky person, he looked left and right, there was no suitable place, so he simply sat down on the steps at the door of the imperial study, and put the four dishes and one soup in the food box on it, of course, the four dishes were fine, but there was already a bottom left in that soup.
Yuan Fang picked up the soup spoon, stirred it in the soup bowl a few times, and asked, "What is this?" ”
Yuzuki said, "It's ham soup. ”
Yuan Fang rolled his eyes: "What about the ham?" ”
Yuyue said embarrassedly: "It's all spilled." ”
Yuan Fang sighed and said, "Forget it, let's make do with it." ”
Sang Rou handed a pair of chopsticks to Yuan Fang, Yuan Fang beckoned to the little eunuch standing beside him, handed him the chopsticks and said, "You haven't eaten either, come, eat together, even if it's compensation for you." ”
Sang Rou is the culprit who accidentally injured others, and just now I was worried about how to solve this matter, hearing Yuan Fang say this, my heart was relieved, and I secretly admired Yuan Fang for resolving this mistake so easily.
Xiao Chuanzi was stunned, and subconsciously stood there behind the chopsticks and didn't know what to do, he was a subordinate, he knew this very well, and the Lord Yuan in front of him, who looked a little arrogant, was so polite to himself, Xiao Chuanzi was a little flattered, but out of respect and inferiority, he still didn't dare to drink at the same table with these big people.
Yuan Fang grabbed the pastry that he didn't know what to stuff into his mouth, chewed a few bites and said, "The taste is not bad, but it has the smell of sweet and sour fish." "No, the pastry is sprinkled with a lot of sweet and sour fish soup.
Sang Rou and Yuyue and Yuan Fang couldn't be more ripe, of course there would be no restraint, sitting on both sides of the steps on the left and right, leaning sideways to enjoy those scraps, Yuan Fang squatted on the steps, and said to the stupid Xiao Chuanzi: "Come and eat, let me invite you?" Hearing this, Xiao Chuanzi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, looked at it, walked to the opposite side of Yuan Fang, and squatted under the steps like Yuan Fang, looking at the food on the steps and didn't dare to move.
Seeing this, Yuan Fang didn't say much, picked up a large piece of sweet and sour fish and put it in Xiaochuanzi's bowl: "Eat, you're welcome." ”
Sang Rou smiled apologetically at Xiao Chuanzi: "I'm sorry just now, you can eat more of this supplement." As he spoke, he sandwiched a piece of pork ribs and gave it to Xiao Chuanzi.
Yuzuki put the quick pastry into Xiao Chuanzi's bowl and said with a smile, "Try this too, it's delicious." Xiao Chuanzi lowered her head and looked at the contents of the bowl, and unconsciously, her eyes were full of tears of emotion.
Xiao Chuanzi has been in the palace for seven or eight years, and it is not that he has not eaten good things in the palace over the years, and those big eunuchs have eaten a lot of good things in the past, compared to the ones they got from Yuan Fang today, he is not moved by this, but because of Yuan Fang's attitude towards themselves, they are not like others who treat themselves as insignificant subordinates, Xiao Chuanzi can feel it, they treat it as an equal existence, and more importantly, Xiao Chuanzi clearly feels their care, He was extremely cordial, he hadn't felt this way for many years, he couldn't remember, and he hadn't experienced this warmth with his family since he left home and came to the palace.
Yuan Fang was startled and said: "Damn, no, it doesn't seem to be too spicy, why are you shedding tears?" ”
Xiao Chuanzi hurriedly wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, grinned at Yuan Fang, Sang Rou, and Jieyue, and stuffed his ribs into his mouth, regardless of his image, those etiquette rules are also his X, anyway, Xiao Chuanzi is out today, he wants to enjoy this long-lost warmth.
Yuan Fang saw that Xiao Chuanzi let go, and asked while eating: "Xiao Chuanzi, how many years have you been in the palace?" ”
Ogawako swallowed the food in her mouth and replied, "It's been more than seven years, almost eight years." ”
Yuan Fang asked curiously: "Seeing that you are not very old, you are only eighteen or nineteen, if you count it like this, you will enter the palace when you are ten years old?" ”
Xiao Chuanzi sandwiched a piece of pork ribs, nodded and said, "Well, I'm still relatively late, some people enter the palace at the age of seven or eight." ”
Sang Rou was puzzled and asked: "Why did you enter the palace, ah, I didn't ask." "This topic is a little awkward, after all, it is not a glorious thing to castrate yourself as a eunuch.
Xiao Chuanzi didn't care: "The family is poor, there is no way, if I don't come, my father and brother will starve to death." ”
Yuyue frowned and said, "Poor, then you don't have to be a eunuch, right?" You can make money by doing something else, but you can still be a soldier if you can't do it. ”
Sang Rou retorted: "How can he be a soldier, he was only ten years old at that time. ”
Xiao Chuanzi said with a sad face: "I was only ten years old at the time, I didn't understand a lot of things, my father and mother borrowed a lot of money to ask someone to help me enter the palace, I had to make money to help the family pay off the debt." ”
