Chapter 59: Family Affairs

"Puff, puff, ......" met her gaze, as if all sounds were blocked in an instant, only the earth-shattering heartbeat in her ears remained, and it was faster and louder, as if it was about to jump out of her chest in the next moment.

I didn't speak, and she was silent, just staring at each other, as if to imprint each other into my heart...... I don't know if her heart is filled with this indescribable sweetness and sourness like me, but the undisguised obsession in her eyes taught me to see clearly.

――She doesn't necessarily have feelings for me, does she?

Thinking about it this way, my heart is first happy, and then sour: what if I am self-inflicted and misunderstood?

The atmosphere was not under my control, and suddenly it became ambiguous and blurry.

I sank into the tub and lowered my head, but I couldn't help but peek at her.

The sound of the water sounded, and she blinked as if she had suddenly awakened, her thin lips pursed slightly, and she naturally lowered her eyebrows and looked away from me—but the faint crimson on her cheeks could not hide it, and only then did she reveal a half-shy thought.

"I'll ask him what herbs he should buy." She was embarrassed, she whispered to me, and quickly turned and walked towards the door, her stiff back and hurried steps made her feel like she had fled in the wilderness.

When she dodged out the door, carefully closed the door again, and I was the only one left in the room, I finally let go of my nerves, and felt like I was leaning back against the wall of the barrel.

Thinking about all kinds of talents, a moment of joy, a moment of loneliness, a moment of entanglement, a moment of shyness, when excited, I couldn't help but hold my breath and sink into the water-

The water was pouring in from all directions, the warm touch felt like her palm ironing against my skin, and I thought that a brief suffocation would calm down the chaotic thoughts—but I was wrong.

I can close my eyes, cover my ears, and avoid touch...... I can block a qiē senses, but I can't block her voice and smile; I have her in my heart, I have her in my head, I can't ...... Don't think about her.

In the silence, in this darkness, her description is outlined more and more clearly.

Sighing, and can't help but laugh, is self-deprecation, but also joy - to have a person you love in this life is an unattainable thing, even if it is an undeclared crush, quietly take it out in the dead of night to taste it, that kind of sweet and sour mood, is also extremely wonderful, and this unique thought, always especially cherished.

Suddenly, the water surface was disturbed by external forces, and I only felt that my arms were tight, and before I could come back to my senses, I had been pulled out of the water.

"What are you doing?" Before I could speak, a cold and secretly angry female voice had already sounded in my ears, "Why can't you think of it, but you have to do this!" ”

“…… Well? I wiped a handful of water droplets from my face, and looked at her anxiously in a daze, a little confused.

My wrists were clutched tightly, and I broke out in a cold sweat, but I didn't care about these things, and only focused on her hand around my waist; The chest pressed against each other without gaps, the softness squeezed, the touch was shy, but it also gave birth to some intoxication and comfort—she asked me what I couldn't think of, did I think I was going to kill myself by sinking into the water?

As long as you calm down and think about it, you will know that this is a misunderstanding, seeing her change color and lose her composure, is it the so-called "care is chaos"?

Such speculation made the fire in my heart replaced by warmth, and I couldn't help but reach out and wrap my arms around her shoulders, lean my head on the side of her neck, gently stroke her back, and whisper comforting to her ear: "I'm fine, it's not that I can't think about it, don't worry." ”

She was quiet for a while, answered in a low voice, and then, as if suddenly discovering the ambiguous posture between the two of us, came back to her senses, hurriedly pulled my hand away, helped me sit back in the tub, and poured all the medicinal herbs in the basket in her hand into the water.

After doing this, she stopped looking at me, and sat down on the side with a small pestle, her eyes half-closed, but her cheeks were slightly red, revealing a few wisps of waves disguised under the calm appearance.

I gritted my teeth, trying to figure out how to talk to her, but found that the herbs soaked in the bucket began to exert their medicinal power—first it was so hot that it seemed to burn me off a layer of flesh, and then it was so dense that it hurt so much that it seemed like thousands of small needles as thin as cow's hair had pierced my body, and the pain was so painful that I almost cried.

"Hmm......" didn't want her to see me like a wolf, so she bit her lip and endured it, so she might as well let out a muffled snort.

The man who was closing his eyes suddenly got up, came to my side, grabbed my hand, and his eyes were full of worry: "What's the matter?" What's uncomfortable? ”

"Hurt ......" I only had five points of pain, but when I taught her this concerned and loving gaze, the pain was magnified by ten points, and I couldn't wait to throw myself into her arms and roll, be coquettish, win her sympathy, and exchange for some opportunities to be close.

"So, what then?" She put her arms around my shoulders weakly, but her eyes were only fixed on my face, and I did not dare to go under the bucket in the slightest, and I suddenly realized her embarrassment, and I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, so I could retreat from her arms, and shut my eyes on the barrel wall.

She didn't want to speak, she didn't insist on me, she just sat closer to me, one hand on my elbow, and kept an eye on my movements.

At this time, the effect of the medicine was also exerted to the extreme, my chest, back and limbs, all the places that came into contact with this bucket of medicinal water, were all in severe pain, as if someone was holding a knife and pulling back and forth on it, although I couldn't see the blood, but there was a heart-wrenching tragedy.

I have never suffered such pain, if it weren't for Jiang Zhuo holding my hand and supporting me, I am afraid that I would have been unable to bear this pain and sink into the water and drown.

After nearly a stick of incense, the pain gradually subsided, and my strength also retreated, panting low and picking up the edge of the barrel, without those feelings of love and love, and my mind was full of only the happiness of the rest of my life.

"Are you alright?" After I was gasping for breath, Jiang Zhuo held my elbow, carefully brushed the hair stuck to my face, and asked softly.

“…… Well. Nodding forcefully, I smiled at her and rested against the wall of the bucket with my eyes half-closed.

"The time has come, and you can come out." I don't know how she determined the time, but before I had much strength to reply, I felt a chill all over, and she had already picked up the crooks of her legs and backs and fished them out of the water.

Suddenly exposed to the air, I couldn't help but sneeze twice in succession, but what taught me more difficult to accept was not the coolness that invaded my skin, but the embarrassment caused by being naked and being held in her arms.

“…… Offended. She glared at me, probably a little embarrassed, lowered her eyes, pulled the cloth towel hanging on the side, wrapped me in it, rubbed it a few times, and then wrapped me tightly in her robe.

Her methods were not rude, but they were definitely not as comfortable as those of a servant like the cicada, and on several occasions when she rubbed it, I unintentionally rubbed it on a sensitive spot, causing me to almost cry out—and because I was now weak, I had to let her move, even if I was extremely shy, and I only pretended that nothing had happened.

In all her shyness, Jiang Zhuo carried me all the way back to her room - now this should be considered our shared room, right? When I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sweetness - she carefully put me on the bed, covered me with a quilt, served me like a gentle wife, and taught me to think: if I can get her affection, even if I really lose all my ability to move, I am willing.

The second day was still the same, but when Jiang Zhuo was holding me, I pressed against her soft breasts, listening to her soothing and powerful heartbeat, and my heart was itching, wanting to do something.

On the third day, I feigned casual carelessness, and my lips brushed lightly against her cheek; She just paused, didn't speak, and my courage grew.

…… On the seventh day, I mustered up the courage to slam my lips against her—she did not refuse, but she did not respond, and silently let me lick and grind on her lips, but my breath was a little shorter.

…… On the twelfth day, for the first time in my life, I learned what it was like to kiss, like a bone-eating □□, teaching people to eat the marrow and the taste, and they couldn't stop it—and this time, she took the initiative.

Can I think even a little bit: she likes me too?

As the days passed, I spent the happiest time since I came to Dawu in this valley, and it was also the happiest time in my life that I once thought - but this qiē ushered in a turning point on that day.

That day, Wei Shu did not inform me to go to the medicine house to take a bath, but broke into my room with a few strange women, and before I could ask, the woman in charge arched her hand at me and said with a smile: "Captain Yi Lu of the lowly Weiyuan Army - Su Yao, congratulations to Your Highness!" ”

I was not happy that her sudden intrusion disturbed my purity, so I didn't treat her very kindly, but asked, "Where does the joy come from?" ”

She didn't seem to notice my coldness, but she still replied with a smile: "Your Highness's sinking has been eliminated, firstly, the emperor has given His Highness the son of the emperor to marry, and secondly, such a double happiness, why shouldn't you congratulate Your Highness?" ”

"Marriage?" When I heard Jiang Zhuo's voice, I suddenly turned my head to look, but I saw her standing at the door expressionlessly, her already white face was even more bloody--she was still holding the lotus seed porridge that I was clamoring to eat.

"Jiang Zhuo......" She looked at me fixedly, and suddenly bent her lips and smiled, the smile was as pure as morning dew, beautiful and unparalleled, but it taught me to be astringent in my heart, and suddenly there was endless panic.
