18. Stone Lion (11)
"Why are you here?" Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu who was full of smiles in front of him in confusion: "Shouldn't you be at home?" ”
"Why can't I be here?" Yu Xiaoyu looked at Zhanzhao in confusion, and beckoned Wang Dynasty to sit down: "Lord Wang, you sit!" ”
"Forget it," Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu pretending to be stupid, and frowned: "Go, follow me home......"
Looking at Zhan Zhao, who was unintentionally grabbing his arm, Yu Xiaoyu pursed the corners of his mouth and smiled: "If you want to eat something, I'll go to ......."
"What to eat," Zhan Zhao interrupted Yu Xiaoyu's words: "Hurry up and follow me home......"
Sensing Zhanzhao's abnormality, Yu Xiaoyu blinked his eyes and said helplessly: "Lord Zhan, this is not a place to talk, let's talk in another place!" ”
Zhan Zhao looked at the guests coming and going in the restaurant, all staring at himself and Yu Xiaoyu standing in the middle of the lobby, full of curiosity, and could only nod slightly.
"Come with me!" Yu Xiaoyu took Zhanzhao through the kitchen and came to the dormitory he had prepared for Lao Yu and the others in the backyard.
After opening a room that was not yet occupied, Yu Xiaoyu took the lead in walking in: "There has been no one living here, so I haven't prepared tea; You're going to put up with it a bit, right? ”
"What are you messing about?" Zhan Zhao didn't have the heart to drink tea at all, he just stared at Yu Xiaoyu's face: "Didn't you promise me not to come to the restaurant again in the future?" ”
"When did I promise you not to come to the restaurant?" Yu Xiaoyu's eyes widened: "What are you talking nonsense?" How could I possibly sign such an unequal treaty with you that humiliates the country? ”
"You ......" Zhanzhao unconsciously clenched Yu Xiaoyu's arm: "Forget about today's matter; You come home with me now, don't come here again, shut it down......"
"That's not good," Yu Xiaoyu shook his head: "You have several relatives and friends of adults in Kaifeng Mansion, all of whom work in my restaurant?" How can you just turn it off casually? How can I explain it to them......"
"Since that's the case," Zhan Zhao didn't think about it, and directly gave a solution: "Then give it to whoever you want; Anyway, you don't have to worry about this anymore......"
"What did you say?" Looking at Zhan Zhao as a matter of course, Yu Xiaoyu suddenly remembered what happened that morning, and couldn't help but pat his head: "Ah, I remembered, Lord Zhan, did you misunderstand?" ”
"What misunderstanding?"
"That morning," Yu Xiaoyu licked his lips: "I promised you not to come to the restaurant, but I mean not to come that day, not to give up this restaurant......"
"You ......" Hearing Yu Xiaoyu mention the events of that day, Zhanzhao became even more angry: "I have already made it clear to you that day, don't come to the restaurant again in the future, you also promised me personally." Tell me that again? ”
"It seems," Yu Xiaoyu shrugged, "We all misunderstood the meaning of each other's words." ”
"It doesn't matter if there is a misunderstanding or not," Hearing Yu Xiaoyu's words with a smile, Zhan Zhao also eased his tone: "Now, come home with me." We won't talk about it again in the future. ”
"Lord Zhan," Yu Xiaoyu looked at Zhan Zhao and said with a smile: "I'll go back with you now, it's okay; However, this restaurant is my hard work, and I will not give up......"
"What kind of effort?" Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu and frowned: "Do you see which woman shows up outside all day long?" ”
"Lord Zhan," a sneer curled into the corner of Yu Xiaoyu's mouth, "Do you mean to accuse me of having a problem?" You'll have to make it clear, I don't have to ...... this reputation."
"Yu Xiaoyu," Zhan Zhao looked at the completely strange woman in front of him: "You sue me, what do you want?" ”
"I want to keep opening this restaurant." Yu Xiaoyu said categorically.
However, seeing Zhan Zhao's blue face, Yu Xiaoyu blinked, took the initiative to hold Zhan Zhao's hand, and softened his tone: "Zhan Zhao, do you know why there are so many resentful women?" It's because if a woman only stays at home every day and doesn't have anything to do, it's easy to get cranky......"
Looking at Zhan Zhao's puzzled look, Yu Xiaoyu pursed his lips: "Do you really want to see me thinking cranky and nervous all day long?" Do you really want to see me thinking about who you meet outside every day at home, whether you smile at the half-aged who still have charm, whether you are seduced by a young young woman who is young, whether you have captured the heart of a twenty-eight beauty who has just opened her love, and whether you are in love with an underage girl who is not deeply involved in the world? Even, fantasizing about whether you will suddenly bring me back a woman one day and tell me to get out of here? ”
Seeing that Zhanzhao seemed to be a little moved, Yu Xiaoyu smiled: "Then, every day I pull your collar and force you to explain your whereabouts for the day clearly, and you are not allowed to sleep if you don't explain clearly." Quarrel with you all day long, quarrel with you about small things, Zhanzhao, do you really want to live like that? ”
"Let's talk about it," Zhan Zhao finally spoke, "You just won't close this restaurant, will you?" ”
Yu Xiaoyu shook his head: "To be honest, the kind of life I just talked about, even if you can bear it, I can't bear it - I can't imagine myself becoming the kind of person who even hates myself." ”
"Yu Xiaoyu," Zhan Zhao said coldly: "I'll just ask you, do you close this restaurant?" ”
Yu Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What do you say?" ”
"In that case," Zhan Zhao shook off Yu Xiaoyu and kept holding his hand: "You can do it yourself!" ”
As soon as Zhanzhao's words fell, he turned around and walked out of the room directly, without looking at Yu Xiaoyu again; Yu Xiaoyu pursed his lips, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"If it weren't for my bad luck," Yu Xiaoyu leaned against the dusty table and muttered softly: "If you fall into this broken era, you must first find a big tree to lean on, you see if I can't bear you!" However, the taste of pretending to be a grandson is really uncomfortable! ”
After Zhan Zhao turned around and walked out of the room, he met a person who was waiting for him in the courtyard.
"You are the legendary Imperial Four-Rank Guardian Zhanzhao with a sword?" An old man in his fifties raised the wine in his hand and took a sip.
"Yes," Zhanzhao nodded, "It's Zhanzhao down there." May I ask if the seniors are ......"
"Me," the old man smiled, "I'm the chef of this restaurant, so Lord Zhan will call me Lao Yu!" ”
"Uncle Yu," Zhan Zhao waved his hand and declined the wine gourd handed over by Old Man Yu: "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you are waiting for Zhan Mou here." Excuse me, is there something wrong with the old man, looking for Zhan? ”
Uncle Yu withdrew his hand and said stupidly: "I just want to see what the world-famous exhibition guards look like." ”
"Old man," at this time, Aunt Yu came over: "Why did you come here, the kitchen is busy at this moment!" ”
"I'm just coming out to breathe," Old Man Yu looked at his old woman and said with a smile: "Isn't this coming?" ”
Aunt Yu nodded at Zhanzhao, then pulled Old Man Yu away, and muttered as she walked: "Let you drink less, you just won't listen; Believe it or not, I'll sue the fish girl and let her cure you......"
Looking at the backs of the two people in front of him, Zhanzhao unconsciously remembered the conflict between him and Yu Xiaoyu just now, and complained in his heart that Yu Xiaoyu was arguing and messing around......
The angry Zhanzhao walked directly through the kitchen and lobby and walked out of the restaurant; Wang Chao was already waiting outside the restaurant, and when he saw Zhan Zhao coming out with a black face, he couldn't help but step forward with concern: "Lord Zhan, are you okay with Mrs. Zhan?" ”
mentioned Yu Xiaoyu, Zhanzhao's face became darker; However, he still shook his head and gritted his teeth and spit out two words: It's okay.
Yu Xiaoyu stayed in the room for a while before walking out of the room and returning to the lobby.
"Boss," Xiaodouzi leaned next to Yu Xiaoyu, "Are you okay?" You didn't quarrel with Zhan-sama, did you? ”
"It's not noisy," Yu Xiaoyu smiled: "Lord Zhan is reasonable, I am gentle and lovely in the shopkeeper, how can we quarrel......"
Yu Xiaoyu, who returned to the restaurant, has been busy in the restaurant as if nothing had happened, as if the quarrel between her and Zhanzhao had not happened at all.
In the evening, Yu Xiaoyu finished calculating the day's accounts, and then trotted all the way home in the drizzle.
"Ouch, Mrs. Zhan," Wu's mother saw Yu Xiaoyu and hurriedly greeted her: "Why did you come back in the rain, and didn't ask Master Zhan not to pick you up?" What if I get sick? ”
"It's okay, Mother Wu," Yu Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I'll just take a hot bath in a while." ”
"Then I'll go boil hot water right away." Mother Wu nodded: "By the way, Mrs. Zhan, do you want to get you some more food?" ”
"No need, I've eaten at the restaurant." Yu Xiaoyu shook his head: "Mother Wu, where is Erya?" ”
"That little girl," Wu's mother said with a smile, "I have been in the house all day long, making shoes for her brother!" By the way, Mrs. Zhan, don't you make a pair for Lord Zhan? ”
Yu Xiaoyu smiled: "Where will I be?" Okay, I'll go see Erya first-it's dark, and I'm still doing needlework, but don't get tired of my eyes. ”
Yu Xiaoyu chatted with Wang Erya for a while before returning to the room to prepare for a bath.
Yu Xiaoyu, who took a hot bath beautifully, saw Zhanzhao walking towards her as soon as she stepped out of the door of the bath room.
Yu Xiaoyu smiled and just wanted to say hello to Zhan Zhao, but saw Zhan Zhao pass directly past him without squinting, as if he didn't see himself at all.
Yu Xiaoyu pouted, and went back to the room as if nothing happened.
However, what Yu Xiaoyu didn't expect was that at night, Zhanzhao did not go back to the room to sleep, but went directly to the study for the night. This is also since letting the "eldest aunt" go, Yu Xiaoyu, who has been thinking about how to spend the night, breathed a sigh of relief.
Early the next morning, Yu Xiaoyu, who had a good night's sleep, got up early, took care of himself simply, and began to run in the yard......
And Zhan Zhao, who had been waiting for Yu Xiaoyu in the study to come to him and had not slept softly, was even more irritable when he saw Yu Xiaoyu running in the yard like no one else......
Zhan Zhao was so angry with Yu Xiaoyu that he left the house without even eating breakfast and went directly to Kaifeng Mansion.
"Zhan Guard?" Looking at Zhanzhao, who appeared in the mansion early in the morning, everyone was stunned: "Why did you come back so early?" ”
Zhan Zhao smiled, but did not speak.
Soon, Master Bao also knew about Zhanzhao's early return to Kaifeng Mansion, and couldn't help but admire Zhanzhao's "dedication" in his heart - it was really difficult for Zhan to protect him, knowing that he might have to interrogate Liu Ying today, so he came over so early......
Due to the rest of Cui Yimei, the young lady of the Cui family, her physical condition has improved; Therefore, Lord Bao decided to arrest the concubine Liu Ying and try the case as soon as possible......
However......
Seeing Liu Ying being taken away by the princess with high spirits, the anger that Zhan Zhao had been holding back finally came out, and he slammed his fist on the table: "It's really damn, Liu Ying was about to admit it, but ...... If it weren't for the princess coming suddenly, the case would have been decided. Now he actually let Liu Ying run away. ”
Gongsun Ce persuaded: "Zhan's guards don't need to be angry. The matter of the princess was expected by all of us. In fact, now as long as Elder Cui Yi arrives, Liu Ying will have no way to deny it. Moreover, there is also the case of Yahuan Xiaocui, then Liu Ying is undoubtedly the mastermind, and even the princess cannot exonerate him; But ......"
"What's wrong?" Zhan Zhao looked at Gongsun Ce puzzled: "Mr. Gongsun has something to say." ”
"Alas," Gongsun Ce sighed: "I'm just a little worried, this incident has already made Liu Ying take precautions, and next time I'm afraid it won't be so easy for him to get into the case." ”
Zhan Zhao sighed, he was also at a loss for such a thing.
Seeing that it was already dark and the rain outside was getting heavier, Zhanzhao said goodbye to Master Bao and Gongsun Ce and returned home.
However, what Zhanzhao didn't expect at all was that Yu Xiaoyu actually moved all his things to the study......
