Xi Yunzhi walked out of the dungeon, and the sudden brightness made her eyes squint involuntarily, and Shang Su'e's words still echoed in her ears.
Just killing her is certainly not a complete revenge, but if you want to take revenge, the first thing to get rid of is her.
Walking alone on the central avenue, looking at the once prosperous area, now it has become depressed, Xi Yunzhi stood outside the Deyun Inn for a while, looking at the brand-new, seemingly unattainable courtyard, and now it has only ended up being sealed.
After the conviction of the offender, the government's order to close the shop will be lifted, and it will be put into the public to bid for the commercial house, and at that time, as long as the price is right, it is usually not difficult to buy it.
And a store like this with a boss with a case on his body is generally not easily purchased, for fear of offending the government, and second, for fear of bad luck, but Xi Yunzhi is not afraid.
So, as soon as the government posted the bidding announcement, she went to the bidding venue and spent 68,000 taels of silver to buy all the private property belonging to Shang Su'e, including two restaurants, an inn, and a tea house.
Xi Yunzhi knew that these were Shang Su'e's industries on the surface, and there were many that had been hidden by the Xi family secretly, and the Xi family broke off from Shang Su'e as soon as she had an accident, and the fifth uncle Xi Qing and sister-in-law Xi Yun were also placed under house arrest by Mrs. Xi, and they were not allowed to meddle in Shang Su'e's affairs.
The Xi family lost two rooms at one time, which can be described as a great loss of vitality.
***
At the beginning of October, her father-in-law sent a letter back, saying that she would return in mid-October at the most, Xi Yunzhi was overjoyed, and went to Deyue Tower early to wait for Zhang Ting.
That kid had been avoiding her for several days, and when she took the Deyun Inn within the betting time, he never dared to appear in front of Xi Yunzhi again.
Xi Yunzhi had no choice but to come to his shop to block him in person.
sat at the entrance of Deyue Building, asked the guy to make her a pot of tea, served two plates of snacks, and she sat there leisurely while eating and waiting.
As soon as Zhang Yan walked into the store, he saw Xi Yunzhi at the door, and he was so frightened that he wanted to run, but Xi Yunzhi said coldly:
"If you don't want to give a recipe, then Boss Zhang is going to learn how to bark a dog and climb a hundred laps along Deyue Tower."
Zhang Yan gave up running away with a sad face, walked up to Xi Yunzhi in a dejected manner, and sat down softly: "Boss Xi, you have no last resort, I, Zhang Yan, have completely convinced you this time." ”
Xi Yunzhi looked at him and didn't speak, Zhang Yan was stared at by her uncomfortable, and after sighing deeply, he took out a golden cardboard book from his arms, and looked at the book as if he was looking at a heart baby:
"It's been with me for twenty years, twenty years of affection, you know?"
Xi Yunzhi almost collapsed, this kid really did everything to cheat, and now he starts to talk about his feelings with books?
"I'll copy it down, and I'll return the book to you." Xi Yunzhi tried his best to cooperate with him.
Who knew that Zhang Yan still had a sad expression: "It seems that you still don't understand, the feelings I am talking about are related to the content of this book, and if you copy the content, you will take away its special essence, which is ......"
Xi Yunzhi didn't have time to listen to him talking nonsense there, and he blocked it in one sentence:
"Then you go outside and learn how to bark and climb upside down. A recipe, I really don't care, whether I get it or not has no effect on me, but Boss Zhang's dog crawling posture will definitely become a hot topic for the people of Luoyang City after dinner. You're free to do it. ”
“……”
Zhang Yan looked at Xi Yunzhi and hated his original behavior, why did he think of making a bet with this woman?
almost reluctantly cut his love, and pushed the golden book in front of Xi Yunzhi:
"If you want to copy it quickly, I won't see it."
“……”
Xi Yunzhi saw that he was in pain, as if he was not losing a book, but regretting losing his wife, raised his eyebrows, grabbed the golden book, said goodbye, and left Deyue Tower.
Zhang Yan saw that she was walking chicly, and couldn't help but follow her footsteps and go out, the whole person was haggard lying on top of the door, and shouted at her back like an emotional embankment:
"Treat it well, and you must return it......"
***
Bu Qin came back on the night of October 13.
Xi Yunzhi was kneading dough and making pastries with Liu's mother in the kitchen, when he heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the yard, threw down the dough, and ran out.
Bu Qin messed up his hair in a bun, his clothes were gray, and his handsome face was also full of wind and frost, but Xi Yunzhi didn't mind, the moment he turned over and dismounted, he threw himself into his arms, looking up at his own piece of the sky like a little woman looking up to happiness.
Bu Qin's hands around her slender waist were trembling, her face was a little pale, Xi Yunzhi only felt a warm waist for a while, and when she looked down, it was full of blood.
"Ahh
She didn't see it until now, and there was blood oozing from Bu Tan's arm.
After Zhao Yi and Han Feng dismounted, they immediately stepped forward to support Bu Qin, but they were blocked by him with one hand, and Wu Zi leaned the strength of his body on Xi Yunzhi's thin shoulder.
"My husband is injured, how can I get hurt? Is it well bandaged? Does it hurt? ”
Xi Yunzhi's series of questions made Bu Qin want to laugh with emotion, seeing that she felt so sorry for herself, the fatigue along the way had already disappeared.
Zhao Yi stepped forward and said:
"After Master was injured, Han Feng and I originally wanted him to recover from his injuries and come back, but Master insisted on rushing back overnight."
Bu Qin handed him an eye knife, Zhao Yi didn't dare to say anything, Xi Yunzhi saw him like this, so he no longer embarrassed them, and hurriedly asked Liu's mother to boil water, let Ruyi Ruyue go to get the bandage, and he carefully helped Bu Qin to the small courtyard.
She asked him to sit on the soft couch, found scissors, and cut off the clothes around his wound, revealing the appearance of the wound inside, the wound was already a little suppurated, and the blood was dripping, which made Xi Yunzhi's hands tremble.
Bu Qin saw that she was about to cry, thinking that she was afraid of blood, so she was going to snatch the scissors and come by herself, but Xi Yunzhi stubbornly dodged her hand, her eyes were red, and she cleaned up and bandaged him without saying a word.
"I'm fine. It doesn't hurt at all. ”
Bu Qin stared at her for a long time, and only then did he seem to understand what she meant by her cold face at the moment, so he said to Xi Yunzhi with relief.
Xi Yunzhi's hand that was medicating him trembled slightly, and his lips opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something, but he endured it again, until Bu Qin's cold palm covered the back of her hand, which made Xi Yunzhi wake up, and tears fell down in a torrent.
Wrapping his hands in both hands, he said, "Why don't you take care of yourself?" You are out doing things, I don't interfere, but I just want you to do it, drink water when you are thirsty, eat when you are hungry, and recuperate when you are injured......"
Bu Qin listened to her words, and every sentence was ironed into his heart like charcoal, this is the feeling of being remembered and cared for, very fulfilling and heartwarming.
Xi Yunzhi's tears couldn't stop falling, Bu Qin only felt that he suddenly panicked, hugged her into his arms, almost rubbed into his own bones and blood, Xi Yunzhi clinged to him, his ribs were painful by him, but he didn't dare to struggle, for fear of affecting his wounds.
After the two were entangled like a wick for a long time, Bu Qin was willing to relax his arms, let Xi Yunzhi pilllow on his legs, and quietly stroked her Yunyun's hair, and words that did not match his cold and hard voice at all flowed out from his lips:
"I said I'd be back by mid-October at the latest, and I don't want to break my promise."
Xi Yunzhi returned his hand to his bee waist, and said in a choked tone: "I'd rather you break your word than you hurt yourself." ”
“……”
After another moment of silence, a gentle voice sounded in the room again:
"This time, not next time."
Xi Yunzhi raised his head from his lap, his eyes burning: "You swear." ”
Bu Qin looked at her child-like innocent expression, sighed helplessly, raised his hand and said:
"I swear."
After receiving the affirmative answer from his beloved, Xi Yunzhi relieved his heart, lay on Bu Qin's legs, and quietly enjoyed the rare and warm reunion moment of their husband and wife.
***
Since Bu Qin came back, Xi Yunzhi seems to have changed as a different person, like a little woman who needs her husband's protection everywhere, and even in the shop, she doesn't take care of it for the righteous and bright reason of 'her husband is back'.
Everyone was speechless about Xi Yunzhi's move, what did this woman do when the man was not at home, they all knew that that kind of toughness and calmness, no man could compare to her, but since her husband came back, how did she become the kind of fragile little woman who even had to be guarded by her husband when she pinched the cake balls?
I felt a chill when I thought about it, but no one dared to directly break this feeling, so I had to hold it in my heart and try not to mind.
Xi Yunzhi has also been obsessed with making pastries and dim sum recently, but it was because she accidentally discovered that her husband had eaten up a plate of sweet and greasy dim sum, and this discovery made her understand that her husband still had a love for sweets.
Therefore, she didn't learn in the past few days, but learned a few pastries from Zhang Yan's recipes, she wants to do everything possible to make the pastries sweet but not greasy, smooth but not coarse, melt in the mouth, and she wants to make the best pastries in the world for her husband to enjoy.
Another basket of pastries came out of the oven, Xi Yunzhi brought out the whole plate, the pink peach blossom shape, with a tender yellow core in the middle, looking as delicate and light as a real peach blossom, she took a piece and sent it to Bu Qin, who was sitting on the side reading a book, Bu Tan didn't look at her, so she opened her mouth directly and asked her to send the pastry in.
After seeing him chew a few times, Xi Yunzhi couldn't wait to come up and ask, "How is it?" ”
She was like a student who was being questioned by a teacher, anxious to know her grades.
But Bu Qin just nodded lightly and said lightly: "It's delicious." "After that, there was no follow-up.
Xi Yunzhi couldn't help but push his shoulder, Bu Qin raised his head to look at her, Xi Yunzhi sighed and said:
"Husband, you've eaten more than 20 kinds of food, and you say that each one is delicious, can't you say more?"
Bu Qin was puzzled: "It's delicious...... What more opinions? ”
Xi Yunzhi frowned: "It's just to put forward some opinions that still need to be improved." My pastry craft is a beginner, it is impossible to do it too perfectly, there must be deficiencies, husband, you have to be responsible for telling me these deficiencies, and then, I can improve them one by one. ”
Bu Tanba smacked his lips, as if he had been savoring for a while, and then said briefly: "It's too light, put more sugar." ”
“……”
Xi Yunzhi was a little frustrated, wouldn't her husband be as long as it was sweet enough, and there would be no other requirements, right? So what is she pursuing these days?
couldn't help but mutter: "If you want to put sugar, just say it earlier, after trying so much, isn't it a waste?" ”
Bu Qin raised his head and glanced at her again, and when he heard the word 'waste', his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Xi Yunzhi's back:
"By the way, I've brought you some more things back and put them on the table in the room, so you can take a look at them when you have time."
"......" Xi Yunzhi's back stiffened, and her husband brought her something back?
