Chapter 42: The Dinner Table Asks Skillfully
After listening to Yun'er's answer, Qi Rong couldn't see any change in expression, only his voice was slightly lower.
"Wait for the young grandmother to come back, let the young grandmother decide. ”
Yun'er said yes and continued,
"That Yun'er went to the kitchen to see the young master's medicine first. ”
Yun'er just retreated to the door, Bao Qi just came back from the kitchen, followed by the maid who brought the food, Yun'er saw that Bao Qi glanced at herself, because of the presence of other maids, she didn't ask, and only commanded the maids to set the meal.
Yun'er originally planned to go to the kitchen to see the medicine, but now she stayed directly to serve the two of them to eat, but fortunately, Qi Rong did not stop her, and Bao Qi did not ask about the inquiry again.
The meal was quite quiet, but their hearts were never calm, especially Bao Qi, seeing that today's meal was obviously different from usual, and most importantly, the barley and red bean porridge that Mrs. Qi ordered every day was also gone this time.
Bao Qi was eating, and said casually,
"Who is responsible for the meals in this kitchen, but I didn't expect that not only the craftsmanship is good, but also the variety of tricks made. ”
Yun'er's heart moved slightly when she heard this, her face remained unchanged, and she stood quietly to the side, and she couldn't help but admire her young grandmother.
The girls who came to serve the meal stood on the side, and when they heard Bao Qi ask, some of them who knew the rules bowed their heads and said nothing, and some of them were clever, so they began to blink their eyes to ask for credit.
"Young grandma doesn't know, we have a special cook in this house, this daily meal is ordered by Sister Qingyue of Mrs. House, if there are other requirements in each room, then do it separately, if not, then eat the same with Mrs.~"
The other party's words were unintentional, but they were really rude.
If before today, Bao Qi really didn't care about her so much, but today let her know too many things, this tone can never go with it, majesty, and always have to be established from small things.
Bao Qi's hand did not stop, and after listening to the girl's words, a shallow smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and a flower bloomed on her beautiful face.
"I heard that when I fainted today, Madame seemed to talk about the food in the kitchen, which seems to be a little different from you, Yun'er, I don't remember clearly, you can tell me. ”
Yun'er immediately cooperated,
"Today, Madame, heard that the young grandmother was ill and related to the improper arrangement of the kitchen meals, so she ordered that the person responsible should be punished, even if it was unintentional, it was also a dereliction of duty. ”
The girl who spoke couldn't react for a while, her face froze for a moment, she stood with her head down, and heard Yun'er continue to say softly,
"But Sister Qingyue must have been very busy recently, and she can't take care of the arrangements in the back kitchen of this meal, otherwise, how could she be so careless. ”
The maid couldn't hear the meaning of the words anymore, and she really became stupid, but what she just said was not very smart.
I wanted to show off my head, who knew that stealing chickens would not lead to rice, not only setting fire to my body but also involving my wife, but now I lowered my head and blushed, my forehead was a little nervous, and the chagrin in my heart almost rushed out.
Fortunately, this girl will look at her eyes, and after a few words, she can see that this new young grandmother is by no means the person who is bullied and silent as she thinks, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to beg for mercy,
"The young grandmother atoned for her sins, the young grandmother was angry, the slave and maid definitely didn't mean that, it was all because the slave and maid couldn't remember clearly, so they talked nonsense here, begging the young grandmother to atone for their sins, and the eldest young master to atone for their sins......"
Qi Rong was named, but he didn't react, but he still ate calmly.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Bao Qi still chuckled like that, looking at the person kneeling on top of him in puzzlement,
"How could I ever blame you, and how could I ever be angry, but I just asked by chance, raised some doubts, and explained clearly, what are you panicking, you knelt on the ground like this, but let me and the young master have no intention of eating. ”
Bao Qi said softly, understanding and magnanimous, but the kneeling person was speechless for a while, and his heart was even more annoyed and resentful, so he had to continue to show panic on his face, hesitated to stand up, and made mistakes again and again.
After a meal, there was nothing else to say.
Before going to bed at night, Yun'er went to see Qi Rong for medicine, and only Bao Qi and Qi Rong were left in the huge rooms.
When Qi Rong entered the inner room, he saw Bao Qi sitting at the table next to the dresser, staring intently in the direction of his side, his black eyes were like water, reflecting the candlelight.
Seeing Qi Rong enter the room, Bao Qi stood up straight, looked at Qi Rong's gaze but did not shift in the slightest, and hesitated for a moment before speaking,
"Thank you for today. ”
The corners of Qi Rong's lips are shallow, gentle as the moon, but Bao Qi always feels that his eyes are dark, and under the gentleness is a bottomless deep pool.
"If you are husband and wife, why say thank you. ”
The word husband and wife made Bao Qi feel awkward to hear, but he didn't say anything against it, and when he saw the other party like this, he calmed down, and his voice was a lot clearer.
"Since you are husband and wife, should you also tell me something, so that I don't faint today?"
Qi Rong was still a little surprised in his heart, he thought that Bao Qi would ask, but he didn't expect to ask so frankly and directly.
However, there was no change on his face, his starry eyes flashed, looking directly at Bao Qi's face, his skin was like clotted fat, and his skin was as white as snow, such a beautiful woman made Qi Rong sigh in his heart.
Bao Qi saw that he only looked at himself but didn't speak, his heart was stunned, maybe Qi Rong noticed the change in Bao Qi, so he moved his eyes to the trembling candle flame and slowly spoke,
"You should also see that in my courtyard, it is not as calm as it seems, and there are many people in the deep gate house, and the thoughts must be different. Since you are here, I can survive for a day, and we can be regarded as husband and wife, I can remind myself, I am honest, in the future, Mrs., it is better to go less. ”
Bao Qi was stunned at this time, he had guessed in his heart for so long, and when he heard the other party tell the truth, he had some indescribable feelings in his heart, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but pull out a touch of self-deprecation.
"I don't know what you're doing, but I ......"
"Wait a minute!"
Before Bao Qi finished speaking, he heard Qi Rong suddenly whisper, and then immediately stood silent, listening carefully to the movement outside the door, Bao Qi was startled, he didn't know what was going on, and he carefully pricked up his ears.
It was pitch black outside the window at night, and the moon had not yet risen, and unless I listened attentively, I couldn't hear a faint sound coming from a very soft voice.
Bao Qi saw that Qi Rong's eyebrows were deep, and he knew that he had noticed something, and at this moment, there was a rush of messy footsteps outside the door, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open, Yun'er ran in in a panic, and there was a breathless voice,
"Young master, young grandmother, it's not good, Miss is gone!"
Bao Qi's heart was cold, something sank, Qi Rong's face was even colder, his eyes were tight, and he was shocked,
"Gone?!"
