C7 Freedom

Zhuo Xi looked at the calm Shu Yue and said, "You have seen it too. Although I am now in the name of Attendant, What I can do is also to serve people. I'm afraid that you will have to work harder here than in the Wu Manor. If you're afraid of suffering or being tired, you can bring it up right now. "

" This servant does not dare and this servant is not afraid of suffering. Sixth Miss only has instructions and this servant will obey all of them. "

Zhuo Xi continued, "Shu Yue, you are a quick-witted one. Although I am a female, I am not a petty person. I also hate people who are hypocritical and hypocritical. Since you are following me now, no matter who your original mistress is, as long as you do not betray me in the future, I will not treat you unfairly. "

Although Shu Yue's face was calm, her heart was already in turmoil. She knelt down and kowtowed as she sincerely said, "Sixth Miss, Shu Yue is foolish and only knows to serve Sixth Miss wholeheartedly. Sixth Miss can be at ease. Although Eldest Young Master asked me to come and serve Sixth Miss, he did not let this servant do anything that should not be done. "

Zhuo Xi sneered to express her disbelief," Whether it is or not, we will know in the future. But you must remember, if you treat me sincerely, I will treat you well. If you want to challenge my bottom line, I am also not a kind person! "

"Shu Yue will remember what Miss taught me. " She bowed again.

"Get up. Put these tea leaves into the jar first. "

"Yes. "

After a while, Ziran walked out, "Sir, Mistress invites you in. "

"Ziran, what did you call me?"

"Ah right, Zhuo Xi, Lord Marquis invites you in. " Ziran rubbed his head.

She nodded. "Okay. "

"Good day, Lord Marquis. " Zhuo Xi greeted him.

She did not hear a reply for a long time. She looked up and saw Jingyuan holding the cup of tea, seemingly thinking.

She could not help but ask again, "May I know what orders Master Hou has for Zhuo Xi to come in?"

"Zhuo Xi? Isn't your name Wu Yuan?" Jingyuan finally raised his head and looked at her.

"Lord Bing, my surname is Wu Yuan, Zhuo Xi. " She gritted her teeth. Five yuan? Your entire family is worth five Yuan. What's wrong with this Wuh Xing's name? Why does he have to name himself Yuan?

Ziran grinned from the side. She glared at him. She did not believe that Ziran did not explain the origin of the word 'Zhuo Xi' to him. Wasn't this asking a question that he knew the answer to?

"Zhuo Xi, Zhuo Xi, the spring breeze, and the autumn smoke. The name you gave is indeed better than the name given by the Wuh family. " Jingyuan carefully savored the name.

She was shocked and did not know what he meant. She did not dare to casually respond and changed the topic after thinking for a while. "If Lord Marquis feels that this tea is delicious, you can go outside and boil it. The taste is even better. "

"You mean to say that this tea soup can be drunk?" In the past, he had always fulfilled his mission and really didn't want to drink too much.

"Of course I can. Drinking more will be more beneficial to the body. "

He stood up and stretched his limbs, "I haven't thanked you for saving my life yet, I don't know if you have any wishes or not, but if I can do it, I will do my best to fulfill them for you"

Saving my life? Isn't it too serious? She only supplemented him with nitrogen and alleviated his periodic paralysis. However, she didn't want to miss such a good opportunity. Thus, she took the opportunity to be polite. "Lord Marquis speaks too seriously. Zhuo Xi doesn't dare to ask for any rewards. "

Ziran said from the side, "Zhuo Xi, to be honest, the pill you mentioned last time was indeed poisonous. So it is not an exaggeration to say that Master Hou owes you a life-saving grace. "

So that was the case. " Then, does this poison have a cure? "

"There is, but there is a medicine that is hard to find. We are thinking of a way. "

"Oh, then. . . " My wish is. . .

Jingyuan sighed, "It has been a long time since I went out for activities. "

Ziran understood and went out to call. Two people came in and lifted a bamboo chair. Zhuo Xi watched in shock as Jingyuan slowly walked to the bamboo chair and sat down. Two big men carried Jingyuan out of the door.

Ah, didn't you ask me what wish I have? I haven't said it yet, why did you leave?

Zhuo Xi followed him out and saw that Ziran had already said something to Shu Yue. Shu Yue immediately left quickly. It was likely that once this Marquis came out, he would not let anyone near him. If he cleared the area, then why did he not clear her out as well? She was also a stranger.

'No, no, I haven't said my wish yet! '

The two burly men placed Jingyuan in front of the small table in the pavilion and left. Ziran called her over.

She had no choice but to go over. She washed a few thick bowls with boiling water and scooped a spoonful of tea from the freshly brewed tea into the tea bowl. She handed it to Jingyuan and said, "Master Hou, please use it. "

"This kind of tea soup cooking method is truly rare. I wonder what Miss has learned?"

"Zhuo Xi is not talented. She was fortunate enough to read an ancient book in my grandfather's library, and it is recorded in the book. Today, I heard from Ziran that Lord Marquis drank this tea every day and found it hard to swallow, so I took the book's notes and tested it. As expected, the results were immediately apparent. It was good that Master Hou liked it. It was Zhuo Xi who made the decision. "

Jingyuan said," You did very well. "

Ziran also said happily," Great. I finally solved a big problem in my heart. Oh right, Zhuo Xi, you said that adding red dates would be better, right? I will go and get it now. " He left in a hurry as he spoke.

"Miss, since you know medicine, I feel that my legs are as heavy as a sword today. Why don't you take my pulse again and see what the situation is like?"

Zhuo Xi could only pretend to take the pulse again. She wanted to cry in her heart, "Master Hou, you are just suffering from a cold disease and have not taken that pill recently. The cold air is gradually gathering on your legs, so it is a little heavy. "

"Didn't the lady say that the pill is poisonous?"

"I speculate that although the pill is poisonous, it also has a suppressive effect on your cold disease, so. . . "

"Then, can you make the antidote?"

The topic had come, but compared to taking the pulse, she was much more confident in curing the poison. This ingredient was hard to analyze, so she might as well go back and give it a try.

"I can try. I wonder if there are more pills?" She immediately perked up.

"Of course I do. I'll ask Ziran to send them to you later. "

The conversation ended.

What happened to fulfilling my wish?

Hurry up and say it.

Her little thoughts were almost written on her face. Jingyuan saw her dilemma and asked gently, "Do you have any wish? I will do my best to fulfill them for you. "

Lord Marquis, Lord Marquis, you are truly understanding! Her heart leaped with joy, her small face sparkling. "Master Hou, Zhuo Xi really did not dare to claim credit for what happened the other day. " That was all because of Little White. "However, if Zhuo Xi is lucky enough to concoct the antidote and cure the poison in Master Hou's body, Zhuo Xi has a small wish. I hope Master Hou can fulfill it. "

"Go ahead. "

"The happiest thing in life is freedom. My daughter wants freedom. No parents' lives, no pressure from the royal family. "

Jingyuan was so shocked that he almost stood up. What did she mean by no parents' lives and no pressure from the royal family? Was this something a girl could say? To have no father or ruler in her eyes, this was simply outrageous!

As noble as he was, he was above everyone else. He did not even dare to say that he wanted freedom. What right did she have to ask for freedom?

Zhuo Xi completely did not notice his anger and continued to speak. "I want freedom, I want to live a free life. I want to walk freely between beautiful mountains and rivers. I want to be free and miss the people I miss. I want freedom to do anything that is worth doing. . . " So, first of all, you must let me go, Secondly, you must provide a start-up capital for me to create my business empire. She was happily thinking about her words when she realized that Jingyuan's face was already gloomy. She stopped talking and thought about what she had said earlier.

"Freedom. . . " After a long time, Jingyuan smiled and touched the word. He stared at her and said word by word, "You really dare to think about it!" That threatening aura instantly hit her face. Zhuo Xi suddenly shivered.

"Someone come!" Without waiting for her reply, he made a hand gesture and the two burly men came out of nowhere and carried him back into the house.

Was this the rhythm of the conversation collapsing?

You are the one who asked me what I want. Besides, I just wanted you to let go of my documents so that I can have my freedom to do my business properly. . . Is it that difficult? Besides, is she that important?

The pressure gradually faded away. She relaxed and shrugged. It was really not easy to serve.

Although the conditions were not finalized, she still actively pushed forward the matter of detoxification. When Ziran delivered the pill sample in the evening, he had a blank expression on his face, not knowing what had happened. He also asked Zhuo Xi why Master Hou was chatting happily a moment ago, but the next moment, dark clouds covered him. Zhuo Xi shrugged as usual to indicate that she did not understand.

Who knew that after the meal, Ziran sent another order, saying that he wanted Zhuo Xi and Shu Yue to move into the small courtyard on the right side of the Zhu Xian Residence to live. The reason was that they could serve the marquis well.

She thought for a while. It was not a big deal for the old lady to live in the men's camp outside. Moving in to be monitored by one person was better than being monitored by a group of people.

Therefore, Shu Yue and her luggage leisurely stayed in the small courtyard that night.

Shu Yue was clearly excited about this matter. Zhuo Xi could tell from her quick packing of luggage and her light footsteps that she, this servant girl, had the same thoughts and expectations as the other ordinary servant girls. This kind of self-awareness of being close to the master and hugging her thighs made Zhuo Xi secretly let out a sigh of relief. Now that Lord Marquis was her food and clothing parent, before she obtained her legal identity after leaving, she could not make any mistakes within the scope of her duties. Shu Yue was considered Wuh Xing's person. She should not harm his superior. To Shu Yue, Jingyuan was the superior of her two superiors. If she did not show this desire to hug her thighs, it would be even more suspicious.

After Zhuo Xi eliminated this risk, she could rest assured and move into the main house of the small courtyard. Shu Yue lived next door to her. Under Zhuo Xi's strong rejection, Shu Yue gave up on the idea of keeping vigil for her.

So on the second day, they began a brand new lifestyle. Zhuo Xi specially visited the kitchen and warehouse. As she narrated, Shu Yue recorded the recipes for a week. Fortunately, Shu Yue was actually a literate person, and she was smart enough to write down the recipes. Zhuo Xi took it over and pretended to look at it. She praised her writing was well written. Of course, they did not have the concept of week. They could only explain to Shu Yue that the seven-day cycle was the best period for the human body to recuperate. They also arranged daily services such as refreshments, afternoon tea, and other related work. They arranged the services for Ziran and Shu Yue, both internally and externally. After that, Zhuo Xi concentrated on the work of her Detoxification Research Center.

When Shu Yue was not around, she hid in the room and shut the doors and windows tightly, calling out her external divine artifact, the little white snake. First, she expressed her longing for her and then took out her small pill. The little white snake shook its head as if it had taken a drug.

Zhuo Xi asked it very seriously, "I know it's poisonous, but this poison, you know it can be cured, right?"

Little White nodded and shook his head.

"Is it possible or not?"

Lil' White hesitated for a moment and nodded. Then, he quickly ran to a corner.

Zhuo Xi looked at it and said, "Come over here. I promise I won't hit you. "

Little White shrank even tighter.

Zhuo Xi blinked and understood a little, "Little White, could it be that you are saying that this poison can be cured, but it might hurt you?"

Little White lightly nodded and looked at her pitifully.

Zhuo Xi crawled over and picked it up, "Little White, I don't know what kind of relationship you have with the original owner, but you are the first friend I met in this world and you saved my life. No matter what, I will protect you from any harm. "

Little White leaned over her shoulder and rubbed against it.

Zhuo Xi stroked its back and asked, "Then, can you find the source of this poison?" It was good that she did not have a way to analyze the pill and knew what kind of poison it was.

Little White nodded and slipped down from her body and out of the window. After a while, it returned the way it came. It nagged at a herb in its mouth, then turned around and crawled out through the gap in the window. After a while, it also picked up a herb, then turned around and left.

When it turned around for the third time and left, Zhuo Xi stopped twitching her mouth and grabbed Little White, "How many more flavors do you have?"

Little White was at a loss and did not know how to express the numbers. It only smelled the smell of a herb and found one. Actually, the most important were the two types of saliva that came from two types of poisonous animals. It did not have the time to search.

Zhuo Xi said, "I'll go with you. Don't climb back and forth. You're making my eyes blur. "

Little White nodded. It was good to walk less. Although its movements were fast, it was also very tired after going back and forth a few times.

Hence, Little White led the way in front while Zhuo Xi followed. At a glance, she saw Little White crawl out through the gap in the window. She facepalmed, "Little White, can you find a person to walk on the road?"

Little White wagged its tail. I am a snake, why should I find a path for someone?
