Chapter 15

When the last stroke was drawn, the tip of the pen trembled uncontrollably, and there was a finger-sized blood-red stain on the end of the talisman.

Gu Yanfei put away the pen, put the Langhao pen on the pen holder next to it, crumpled up the talisman paper indiscriminately, and threw it into the white porcelain wastebasket beside it without looking at it...

The milk cat's eyes lit up, it jumped up, bit the ball of paper, and intercepted the ball perfectly!

After it landed lightly, its little paws moved the ball of paper on the floor, chasing, intercepting, pushing... It was a joy to play.

As for Gu Yanfei, after closing his eyes and meditating for a while, he dipped his pen in cinnabar again and drew the next talisman.

It's a pity that the tip of the pen was crooked again in the last stroke, and Gu Yanfei failed for the hundred and first time.

The milk cat galloped over and squatted obediently beside her skirt.

Waiting for Gu Yanfei toss out the next ball of paper and leap up again...

The paper balls on the ground increased one by one, and the satisfied milk cat felt as if he owned a fish pond, playing like crazy.

When playing in the middle of the night, it was tired, yawned again and again, and its eyes were sleepy.

Gu Yanfei didn't care about it at all, and continued to draw the talisman.

There was still no wind that night, and it was as stuffy as a steamer.

The long night gradually passed, the sky turned pale, and the sun rose slowly.

The bright golden sunlight in the morning spilled into the house through the windows, and the luxuriant flowers and trees in the courtyard reflected the verdure of the room.

A few asters were inserted in the plum vase on the desk, and an elegant fragrance of chrysanthemum filled the air.

The room was silent.

Gu Yanfei, who hadn't slept all night, leaned over his desk and wrote, his figure was straight and slender, tall and straight like a green bamboo, elegant like a green willow, calm but tough.

Outside the window, the goldfish in the pond jumped out of the water and fell into the water with a "plop". At the same time, her pen tip finally finished the last stroke smoothly.

There was a long sigh of relief between the pink cherry lips.

It worked!

This is the first talisman she has completed in recent days, the first talisman painted with cinnabar.

Gu Yanfei admired the talisman he drew with satisfaction, narrowed his eyes and bent his lips.

That smile was like the warm sun in April, smudged from the corners of the lips to the corners of the eyes and brows little by little, just like clusters of delicate wisteria flowers blooming comfortably.

The little milk cat next to him had already fallen into a deep sleep, sleeping on his back, with a little fluffy paw covering his eyes.

Gu Yanfei was in a good mood, holding the pen dipped in cinnabar and quietly approached, and drew a small red plum between the little guy's eyebrows.

The sleeping milk cat felt something strange, opened its green cat eyes, and yawned lazily.

"Miss," Juan Bi entered the inner room at this moment, saluted, and said, "Miss is here."

Gu Yanfei picked up the cat and walked towards the main room outside.

Although she hadn't slept all night, she had meditated intermittently for an hour or two, and now her complexion was rosy and she was full of energy.

"Second sister," Gu Yun, who was dressed in a lilac-colored skirt, walked towards Gu Yanfei in style, and said with a smile, "I'll come to have breakfast with you, and it will be inconvenient for me to hurry, so I can only make do with this lunch. The meal was delicious."

The maid behind Gu Yunzhen was holding a red lacquer and gold food box in her hand.

Gu Yanfei's heart warmed when he heard Gu Yunzhen's gentle voice, and he readily responded, "Okay."

She knew that Gu Yun was really a good sister. She was the only daughter of the third room of the Gu family. She lost her father three years ago and lived with her widowed mother.

In her previous life, when Gu Yanfei first arrived at the Hou's Mansion, she was unfamiliar with the place and was in a state of anxiety. Gu Yunzhen took good care of her and reminded her of her from time to time.

The two sisters sat down at the table, and Gu Yunzhen took out a small red bib from his sleeve, and said to the little milk cat in Gu Yanfei's arms: "Your jade-faced raccoon is so cute, this little bib is the one I bought yesterday." Sew it to it at night."

Jade-faced raccoon is an elegant name for the three-flowered cat.

"Meow!" The little milk cat jumped from Gu Yanfei's arms onto the table, bowed and stretched, and its long hair trembled.

Gu Yanfei said with a smile: "Big sister, you can put it on."

"Is it okay?" Gu Yun was really flattered, and carefully put on a small bib embroidered with carp on the milk cat, with light hands and feet, for fear of scaring it.

The little milk cat remained motionless and was served by Gu Yunzhen.

"It's so cute!" Gu Yunzhen stared at Mao Tuanzi with burning eyes, his heart almost melted.

The little milk cat in the bib jumped back into Gu Yanfei's arms, rubbing her clothes eagerly, its round cat eyes narrowed into two crescent moons.

Seeing this scene, the envy in Gu Yunzhen's eyes was almost overflowing, and she asked softly, "Has the little guy eaten?"

Qingguang coquettishly rubbed Gu Yanfei with the top of her head again, and gave a childish "meow", as if to say, no.

Gu Yun couldn't help but reached out and touched the little milk cat's back, his voice became softer and softer: "There is still half an hour before departure, Qingguang also needs to eat something, it is time to grow its body."

Gu Yanfei smiled but said nothing.

She knew that they would not be able to leave today.

While talking, the maids opened the food box and took out the food one by one. Two bowls of porridge with shallots, mushrooms and lean meat, a cage of steamed buns with crab roe, and several dishes of assorted pickles. They were steaming hot, obviously just brought from the kitchen. of.

The two sisters enjoyed their breakfast happily, and the little milk cat was not hungry. In other words, there were too many people serving it. One of them added warm goat milk to the bowl, and the other fed it boiled chicken. One person brushes it with a comb.

Wherever there are humans, it is like a fish in water.

The maids around it were all heartbroken, and they were about to treat him like a cat emperor.

Even the mother-in-law who was ordered by Mrs. Gu to deliver the message couldn't help but glance at the little milk cat, her eyes wandering as she said: "Eldest girl, second girl, Mrs. Tai said that I can't leave for the time being, let the two The girl rests first."

"What's wrong?" Gu Yunzhen asked the big maid.

The mother-in-law replied truthfully: "I don't know what happened. The north city gate was opened early in the morning, but just now the government suddenly ordered the gate to be closed, saying that no one is allowed to enter or leave. Mrs. Tai has already let Xu Nanny took the badge of the Hou Mansion to Danyang Mansion, please let the magistrate help me."

Gu Yanfei drank the tea with downcast eyes, the corners of her lips curled up behind the cup.

Not only today, but also tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Gu Yunzhen frowned, and asked the maid to dismiss her mother-in-law, and comforted Gu Yanfei in a gentle voice: "Second sister, it's okay, even if you can't leave today, just stay in Danyang City for a few more days."

"I don't know what's going on these few days. It's already October. The weather is still so hot and there is no wind. Riding in a carriage is like a steamer. It's better to leave a few days later."

A smile appeared on Gu Yanfei's lips.

Her eldest sister is like this, she is soft-hearted and always thinks of the best when encountering people and things, but her heart is sinister, and sometimes the hearts of so-called relatives are more ruthless and ruthless than strangers.
