Chapter 37 Men in Black
The sun gradually sets in the west, and the afterglow splashes on the layered mountains, dyeing the bluestone in front of the door into warm gold.
When Wei Ciying pushed the door open, Jiang Fei was changing the dressing.
The wound on the arm has healed, but even if it heals later, it will probably leave a scar that will last forever.
"It's going to leave a scar." Wei Ciying said with a frown.
Jiang Fei smiled at her and said, "It's okay, it's just a scar. As long as your brother doesn't mind it, it's fine."
"How dare he dislike it." Wei Ciying said: "Besides, my brother is not the kind of person who judges people by their appearance."
In fact, Jiang Fei was not completely indifferent, but she would not be able to use this body for long. After completing the mission, she would die at the hands of Pei Jing in at most a year, so it didn't matter whether she would be left with a scar or not.
The weather is hot, so the wound cannot be bandaged too thickly. After bandaging it, you can pull down your sleeves and it won’t be visible.
Jiutao and Wei Ciying's maids brought in the food and then left.
No meat is allowed in the nunnery. Jiang Fei has been eating vegetables without oil every day these days. She is so greedy that she almost wants to eat people. If Wei Ciying and Wei Mingzhen had not come here suddenly, she was planning to go down the mountain and go home tomorrow.
While eating, Wei Ciying frequently looked out the window, watching the sun sinking lower and lower, and the anxiety on her face became more and more serious.
Jiang Fei knew that she was probably anxious to meet the male lead Jiang Linyuan.
After the maid took away the leftovers, Wei Ciying grabbed Jiang Fei's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, please help me."
Wei Ciying briefly recounted the story between her and Jiang Linyuan, and also talked about the various obstacles at home.
In fact, Jiang Fei knew it even without her saying it. After all, it was written in the book. She had read the previous content twice and had a deeper impression of it. She was dragged into this world before she had time to revisit the latter part.
"How do you want me to help you?" Jiang Fei asked calmly.
Wei Ciying said, "Zi Fu is the maid my mother sent. Lin Yuan and I have an appointment to meet at 12:30 pm, but I'm busy right now. I want my sister-in-law to pretend to be me and sleep in my room. I can change back when I come back."
Jiang Fei didn't say anything.
She had long noticed that the maid was not close to Wei Ciying and was responsible for looking after Wei Ciying.
In order to facilitate the subsequent tasks, she really needs to get closer to Wei Ciying and make her trust her before proceeding with the subsequent tasks.
But this matter was too risky. Once it was discovered, not only would Wei Mingzhen be unwilling to marry her, but the entire Dingyuan Marquis Mansion would oppose the marriage.
"Oh my God...you, you dare to meet with a stranger?" Jiang Fei pretended to be shocked and lowered her voice. "If anyone finds out, your reputation will be ruined!"
Wei Ciying bit her lip, her eyes slightly red. "I don't care about my reputation at all. Sister-in-law, please help me. I really have no other choice."
She held Jiang Fei's hand tightly and said, "Lin Yuan and I are truly in love."
Of course Jiang Fei knew about this. She stayed up late to read this book when she was in college. Because the hero and heroine were forced to separate, she shed tears several times during the twists and turns she went through. She hated the Jiang family in the book with a vengeance.
I didn't expect that I would become a member of the Jiang family in the book.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..." Wei Ciying's tears fell, "Please help me."
She was naturally beautiful, and when she cried she looked even more tearful.
Jiang Fei has received modern education and actually cannot stand such things that break up a couple.
Especially after she came to this world, she also realized the helplessness of women in ancient times. She felt really soft-hearted when she saw Wei Ciying like this.
In ancient times, women were often trapped by the shackles of ethics and morals. Their lives were like catkins floating in the wind. They had no control over many things. Their marriages were all arranged by their parents and matchmakers. Even if they met someone they loved, it was normal for them to "long for someone but not be able to see them."
Deep in the courtyard, springtime passion is locked. Beneath the red candlelight tent, there is much helplessness. Even with deep affection, it is often unable to withstand the tide of worldly affairs. In the end, all that is left is a cup of sorrow facing the moon, a half-rolled scroll of broken poetry accompanying the lonely quilt. Deep in the courtyard, there are countless regrets.
Jiang Fei sighed, "Okay! I'll help you!"
Let's put aside the mission and all the calculations for now, and just empathize with a girl who is also trapped in a cage, and just treat it as helping a pair of lovers to be together.
Jiang Fei handed over the handkerchief and said, "Wipe your tears, don't let Zi Fu see it."
Wei Ciying quickly wiped away her tears and gave Jiang Fei a forced smile.
"But I have two requests," said Jiang Fei.
Wei Ciying eagerly grabbed her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, just tell me what you want!"
"First, you must come back before dawn." Jiang Fei held up two fingers. "Second, tell me where you agreed to meet."
Seeing Wei Ciying's hesitation, she quickly explained, "If anything goes wrong, I can send someone to find you."
Wei Ciying bit her lip and whispered, "It's at the Tingyu Pavilion halfway up the mountain. It's secluded and no one goes there at night."
Seeing that the location was not far away, Jiang Fei felt a little relieved.
Dusk gradually deepened outside the window, the lanterns under the eaves lit up one after another, and the sky became completely dark.
There was a bathroom in the side yard for pilgrims to wash and brush their teeth. After bathing, the two men went into Wei Ciying's room together in their pajamas, saying that they wanted to talk about some private matters.
Zi Fu had no choice but to retreat to the yard and wait.
Jiutao was sitting in the yard eating a peach. She had been instructed by Jiang Fei to hold Zi Fu back for a while. She had never been entrusted with such an important task before, and her heart was pounding before she even started.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and Zi Fu looked into the house several times, until one quarter past ten o'clock, when Wei Ciying's voice came from the house.
"Sister-in-law, please go back first. I will have breakfast with you tomorrow morning."
Zi Fu quickly stood up and was about to go over when Jiu Tao grabbed her arm.
"Peach, give it to Miss Wei."
Zi Fu looked at this stupid maid who only knew how to eat all day long. She couldn't even die of fullness after eating five bowls of rice.
"My young lady doesn't like to eat this peach, so you can keep it for yourself." As he said this, he was about to pull his hand away.
"It's not sour," Jiutao said seriously, grabbing her, "it's just a little small."
Seeing that Jiutao was determined to achieve her goal, Zifu took the peach. When she turned around, she saw Miss Jiang Er with her hair loose and wearing pajamas, walking towards her room with her back to her.
Zi Fu put the peaches on the table as soon as she entered the room. She saw that the curtains on the bed had been drawn and Wei Ciying was lying on her side with the quilt covering her.
"Miss, are you going to sleep?" Zi Fu asked softly.
Jiang Fei faced the wall and hummed in a muffled voice.
Zi Fu went to wash up, blew out the lone lamp in the room, and fell asleep on the small couch in the corner.
Zi Fu's steady breathing could soon be heard in the room, and then the door next door opened and closed. It must be Wei Ciying who went out.
Jiang Fei lifted the curtain a little, took a look, and then lay back down.
She was afraid that Zi Fu would get up to see her in the middle of the night, so she held herself back and didn't dare to fall asleep. She called the system to chat, but there was no response.
A puff of white smoke drifted in from the gap in the window. A quarter of an hour later, a man in black pried open the door and walked in.
The only sound in the room was the maid's light snoring. The man in black walked to the bed and lifted the curtain. The person on the bed was sleeping soundly.
He took out a black cloth bag and put it over the head of the person on the bed, wrapped the person up in a quilt and carried him on his shoulder, then flew out of the door.
