Chapter 246: Uninvited Guest
Zhu Wuchang and Lin Wan thought that she was angry because she was unwilling to learn medicine, so she knelt down in fright. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Zhu Wuchang couldn't help but have a headache, and said impatiently: "Get up, don't kneel at every turn." ”
Lin Wan was unwilling to kneel at every turn, just because he couldn't figure out Zhu Wuchang's temperament, so he had to use bitter meat tricks first. Lin Wan was happy in his heart, but his face was still frightened, and he begged sadly: "Master, please don't drive Amu away, Amu doesn't want to follow his cousin to get married, Amu is still young, if his grandfather is still alive, he will definitely not be willing to let Amu marry at such a young age, master, Amu thinks you are very similar to Amu's grandfather, Amu is willing to be with you, Amu doesn't want to go to his cousin's ......"
"Okay, the teacher didn't want to drive you away, get up quickly. Zhu Wuchang stood up impatiently, turned around and entered the main room.
Lin Wan slowly stood up, cleaned up the tea bowls on the stone table, and returned to the kitchen to clean them. In addition, he found a big iron pot and boiled a pot of bath water for himself, and then carried the kettle with most of the remaining half pot of hot water, walked to the front of the main room, knocked lightly on the door, and shouted: "Master, Amu has brought you hot water." ”
Zhu Wuchang heard Lin Wan's voice, and unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this girl recovered so quickly, and she could still think of sending hot water to herself, it was really very filial. Zhu Wuchang instinctively blurted out, "Come in." ”
Lin Wan pushed the door and entered, placing the hot water next to the shelf next to the door, there was a copper basin on the shelf, and there was no water in the basin. Lin Wan ran out with the copper basin again, fetched water from the well, brought it in again, and put it on the basin rack.
Zhu Wuchang watched Lin Wan do all this very seriously, as if these were what she often did and what she should do, and it didn't make Zhu Wuchang feel a little uncomfortable.
Lin Wan put down the copper basin, and no longer had much to do, and said naturally: "Master, the clothes you changed and the used kettle are placed outside the door, and Amu will take them away tomorrow morning." Master, you are also tired today, so you need to rest early. ”
Without waiting for Zhu Wuchang to answer, Lin Wan had already walked out and closed the door.
When Lin Wan returned to the kitchen, the pot of water that had been boiled before was already hot. Lin Wan struggled to move the big iron pot to his room, and he had to rest for a while after taking two steps. Lin Wan was secretly a little annoyed, this ancient young lady had lived for a long time, and her most basic ability to take care of herself in life had also weakened.
In the past, when I went to school and lived in a student dormitory, I did everything by myself. Later, when I worked alone in Beijing, I had to rely on myself for everything. Lin Wan is still very good at housework, sometimes resting at home, and cooking a table of dishes to comfort herself. I can't say how good it tastes, but I can still get it.
Although Lin Wan has also insisted on exercising for almost two months, she has often been injured and recuperated during this time. I just practiced a little better, and I got injured again, which is really half the effort.
At the window of the main house, a pair of loving eyes were looking at Lin Wan with a smile, until she moved the big iron pot into the room with difficulty and closed the door.
Lin Wan only cleaned it briefly and went to bed. This day was really tiring enough, and Lin Wan fell asleep quickly even if he was lying on the cold and hard bed.
Early the next morning, when Zhu Wuchang got up and walked out of the door, he saw that the clothes he had changed yesterday had been washed and dried in the yard.
In the kitchen, there were fires in all three medicine stoves, tea was boiling on one stove, gruel was simmering on one stove, and there was nothing on the last stove, but inside the stove was a sweet potato buried with unembered wood ashes.
Zhu Wuchang smiled with relief, and turned to look for Lin Wan, but Lin Wan's door was open, there was no one inside, and he could see all the front and back in the courtyard, but he was not there. Zhu Wuchang couldn't help frowning, could it be that this girl actually said goodbye without saying goodbye?
She said yesterday that she didn't want to marry her cousin, did she just want to use this excuse to get out of her cousin's control? Zhu Wuchang was suddenly a little annoyed, feeling that he had been coaxed by a little girl! and felt a little lost, after so many years, he finally decided to accept someone, but he ......
When he was depressed, he suddenly saw the red sail in the yard, which was leisurely playing with a few small young grasses under the big tree with its horse's nose.
Zhu Wuchang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, since Hongfan is here, the girl will definitely come back. Zhu Wuchang walked towards Hongfan, but was attracted by a piece of waste paper on the table that was pressed by a small stone.
This is a piece of waste paper that has been written and thrown away by yourself. But there are two more lines of words in the blank space on the paper, which read: "Master, there is food in the kitchen." Amu went to buy some things on the street and came back soon, the master can rest assured, Amu won't get lost!"
Zhu Wuchang shook his head with a smile and muttered, "This girl!"
There was a sound of pushing the door behind him, and Zhu Wuchang hurriedly turned around, thinking that Lin Wan was back, but it was an uninvited guest who came in.
Zhu Wuchang's originally slightly happy gaze suddenly became indifferent, completely ignoring the visitor, turned around and walked into the kitchen, took a bowl of porridge, turned out the sweet potatoes that had been baked, patted off the wood ashes, carefully tore the sweet potato skin, blew it, and took a bite of the fragrant sweet potato, the heat and temperature were just right.
The man was about forty years old, of medium stature, slightly fat, dressed in a gorgeous official uniform, wearing a jade crown on his head, declaring his noble status. Seeing that Zhu Wuchang was eating breakfast, he was not in a hurry, and slowly walked to the stone table and sat down, waiting patiently.
Zhu Wuchang ate roasted sweet potatoes and drank gruel at the same time, eating extremely carefully, as if no matter how simple and ordinary food was, he would respect it.
After about a quarter of an hour, Zhu Wuchang finished breakfast, poured himself a bowl of tea, took a sip, smiled with satisfaction, and walked to his room with the tea bowl as if no one was around.
The man finally couldn't hold his breath anymore, stood up, and shouted loudly: "Senior Zhu, please stay! This is the third time that this official has come to visit, I hope you can consider this official's request again." If Senior Zhu has any requirements, just mention it, as long as the official can do it, he will definitely meet Senior Zhu's requirements, and he will never break his word!"
Zhu Wuchang's footsteps paused, but he didn't stop, and he was about to move forward.
"Master, Amu is back!" Lin Wan's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
Zhu Wuchang turned around and saw two guards standing at the door, stopping Lin Wan from the door. Zhu Wuchang's eyes sharpened, and he said coldly: "Let her in!"
The man nodded slightly to the guard at the door, and the guard quickly withdrew his hand holding the knife and stepped aside.
Lin Wan walked in with a vegetable basket on one arm, a huge burden on the other, and one on his back, panting and sweating profusely. saw a stranger in the courtyard, but, looking at Zhu Wuchang's expression, he didn't seem to want to see him. (To be continued.) )
