"Wen Zhongnan, thank you really for today. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info It's not early, so you should rest early. ā
Wen Zhongnan stood in the courtyard, glanced up at the dark night, and looked back at Xia Chan. "Don't take the last words of the Feiyan County Lord to heart. I'll help you push it off tomorrow at the banquet of the Protector of the Country. You can just stay in Wenfu with peace of mind. ā
Xia Chan looked at Wen Zhongnan and sneered, "Forget it, Wen Zhongnan, you can help me once or twice, and you can help me a few times." Now that I've come to the capital, I'll let me handle the rest of the matter myself. Is tomorrow going to protect the country? Speaking of which, Zhao Qi and I are also old acquaintances. I think tomorrow for his sake, they won't do anything to me in the Protector. ā
"Erya, why do you bother? The purpose of your visit to Beijing this time is not to get involved in court disputes. And why put yourself in an awkward position. ā
"Is it embarrassing? I'm used to it. Since you know the purpose of my coming to the capital, you should know the reason why I want to seize every opportunity. I have no power or power in the capital. I can't find any way to approach them except you. So it's also an opportunity for me no. ā
Wen Zhong Nan saw that Xia Chan was resolute and didn't say much, and said goodnight to Xia Chan and turned around and left the courtyard. The moonlit and starry night seemed a little lonely, and Xia Chan stood alone in front of the window, and her mind was tangled together as if she was thinking now. It's messy, but there's no way out.
Tonight is destined to be an inevitable night, in the palace, after midnight, in the Shan Yue Palace, Baili Chenxi leaned on the soft couch on the side and held the file in his hand, staring at the book without blinking, his eyes motionless.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, it's been a day, and I will go to the early dynasty tomorrow. It's time to rest. Gonggong Liu pushed the door in from the outside, and saw Baili Chenxi's eyes staring at the book in his hand without blinking, but his eyes were not at the scholar at all, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face.
The eldest prince has been more diligent than ever since he became the crown prince. Every night, I have to correct and fold until late at night. Tonight, I originally thought that the prince was also correcting the folds. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to be in a good mood tonight.
Half a ring passed, and Baili Chenxi still stared at the hand in his hand and didn't move. It seems that he didn't hear what Gonggong Liu said just now. Seeing this, Gonggong Liu hesitated and said again
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the hour is getting late. It's time to rest. ā
Baili Chenxi came back to his senses and looked up at Gonggong Liu. Putting down the book in his hand, he stood up and walked to the window, looked up at the night outside the window, and said coldly
"Stand down."
"Wow." After saluting, Father-in-law Liu turned around and walked out of the room, closing the door casually. Baili Chenxi stood in front of the window. There was a hint of loss in his eyes. Thinking of the picture she saw by the lake today, as well as her decisive words word by word, Baili Chenxi felt distressed for a while.
He glanced up at the bright moonlight and let out a long sigh. Could he really have done something wrong. No......
"Cicadas. If only you hadn't let me down this time. So at the end of the world, I'll accompany you. It's just ......" remembered the hatred of the Xia family. A hint of hesitation flashed in Baili Chenxi's eyes. "Will you give up those hatreds for me?"
What answered Bailichen Creek was a gust of cold wind and the rustle of leaves. There is a strong sense of gloom in the loneliness.
Early in the morning of the second day, the summer cicada got up early in the morning for the first time. It was nice to have a good day when you didn't have to clean the patio. Xia Cicada stood at the gate with her waist stretched and took a deep breath of freshness. There was a great pleasure written on the whole face.
"Sister Erya, I heard that the second son said that you will no longer clean the courtyard like us from today onwards. Congratulations to Sister Erya. Your wish has finally come true. Caiying took the broom and saw Xia Chan's figure from a long distance. Quickly ran to Xia Chan, with an excited face.
Xia Chan raised her head and waved her arm at Caiying, walked quickly to Caiying, pulled her arm and said with a smile
"Chaeyoung. Thank you so much before, if you hadn't estimated that I would have starved to death in the half month that your second son-in-law left home. I've always said that I'll treat you to delicious food when you have a chance. Now there's finally a chance. You wait for noon, I'll make it for you, okay? ā
"Sister Erya, you can also cook. You're really amazing. "Caiying thought that Xia Cicada wouldn't know anything. I didn't expect Xia Cicada to be able to cook.
Xia Chan smiled awkwardly at Chaeyoung. She just likes to sleep in, and she was so surprised to hear that she could cook. Xia Chan pursed the corners of her mouth, took the broom in Caiying's hand and pulled Caiying forward with a proud face. Chaeyoung looked back at Xia Chan with a puzzled expression. Xia Chan said with a smile
"You used to sweep the floor for me, and today I'm here to help you. We're good sisters. That's how good sisters help each other. By the way, what do you want to eat at noon. I will cook a lot of dishes. Whatever you want. Guaranteed to keep you satisfied. ā
"Really? Can I really order anything? ā
"Of course, when my second girl speaks, it doesn't matter." After Xia Chan said this, she glanced at Caiying with a weak face, and immediately changed her words, "Ahem, in addition to liking to sleep lazy, I actually have a lot of advantages." It's just that none of them are magnified. ā
"I believe in Sister Erya. Sister Erya, I heard that there was a lo-mei on the first floor of the world recently, and I heard Xiao Anzi say that it was delicious. It's a pity that I'm just a little maid, and I don't have much money for a month. Sister Erya, can you make it for me? ā
"Braised pork?" Xia Chan was stunned for a moment, and then looked up at Caiying, "Is this braised meat you said coming from Qingyang County?" ā
"Yes, yes, it's Qingyang County. It is said that it was researched by a peasant girl. It's delicious. That braised pork is now selling well in our capital. It's a pity that the first floor of the world only sells so little every day. The young lady of the high-ranking family can't take her turn. How could it be our turn to be a maid? ā
The corners of Xia Chan's eyebrows flashed slightly, and she glanced back at Caiying, "You really want to eat braised pork." ā
Chaeyoung looked at Xia Chan and nodded, "Yes." I've always heard Xiao Anzi mention it, and I've never eaten it. Actually, I really want to eat it once. ā
"Okay, then Sister Erya will fulfill your wish today." Think of it as a farewell gift to you before I left Wenfu. Xia Chan smiled at Cai Ying. Then he handed the broom in his hand to Chaeyoung.
"Caiying, you wait for noon, I will definitely let you eat the most authentic lo-mei." After Xia Chan finished speaking, he turned around and strode out of the courtyard. The little guy closest to Chaeyoung listened to the conversation between Chaeyoung and Xia Chan. A skeptical face. He looked up and shouted at Chaeyoung
"Chaeyoung, she was obviously bragging just now. How can you even believe such a thing? Now who doesn't know that the exclusive braised meat on the first floor of the world was quickly transported from Qingyang County. A secret recipe that doesn't even exist on the first floor of the world. How would she know. ā
Chaeyoung turned her head and glared at the little guy with a displeased expression. said with an affirmative face: "Sister Erya is not the kind of person you said." I believe in her, and she says she can. Hmph, you're just jealous of Sister Erya's kindness to me. That's why she deliberately spoke ill of her. I won't be fooled by you. ā
The little guy glared at Caiying fiercely, and said coldly, "I kindly remind you." Not only will you not be grateful to me, but you will take revenge. Hmph, I don't know the hearts of good people, so I'm too lazy to take care of you. ā
"Let's go in the mud. I don't want you to take care of me. Also, you are not allowed to speak ill of Sister Erya in the future. Otherwise, I'll go tell the second young master. ā
Now who in this mansion doesn't know that the second young master is very different from the little maid named Erya. Even the old man who made a big fuss in the kitchen yesterday morning didn't say a word, which shows the status of the second young master in the master's mind. They're just a tiny subordinate. Naturally, I didn't dare to really offend my master.
One morning, Wen Zhong Nan was busy with official business in the study. I didn't finish my business until noon. Glancing up at the sky outside, he shouted to the door
"Bai Yu, where is Miss Xia."
"Back to the master. Miss Xia is now in the kitchenette in the backyard. ā
Kitchenette? Wen Zhongnan remembered what Xia Chan had promised her yesterday, and he was overjoyed. Did she go to the kitchenette to help her with food? Wen Zhongnan put down the letter in his hand, got up and strode out of the study.
In the backyard kitchen, Xia Chan was busy alone. The kitchen helper stood aside, busy with the things Xia Cicada explained. When Xia Cicada came in just now, everyone looked disdainful. I thought that Xia Cicada was deliberately here to find fault. After all, she is now the most favored maid by the second young master's side. No, maybe people won't be maids soon. Although they were dissatisfied with her in their hearts, they did not dare to show it on the surface. Respectfully relinquished his seat. Let Xia Cicada get it.
Originally, I had the mentality of watching jokes, thinking that she was another girl who wanted to please the young master. But a quarter of an hour. Two quarters of an hour passed. They slowly changed their minds about Xia Cicada.
"Girl Erya, what's the name of this thing you made, why is it so fragrant."
"This thing doesn't just smell. There was also a familiar smell, and I couldn't remember where I smelled it. But it's really fragrant. Girl, can we taste it when it's ready? ā
Xia Cicada put the chopped ginger cubes into the pot and covered the pot, turned around and smiled at them
"Of course, you can't just taste it. I also made one for each of you. Wait a minute, don't dislike me for not making it delicious. ā
Several people's faces were suddenly happy, and their mouths were talking about where and where. Xia Cicada took advantage of the time to cook the braised pork and made a few more home-cooked side dishes. Yesterday, I promised Wen Zhongnan to make two noodles for him, and I took advantage of this time to make them together.
Regardless of whether Wen Zhongnan used him in the middle or not, she was still grateful to him until now. Although she didn't know what kind of relationship the two of them would become in the future, she was grateful to him at this moment. So she hopes to repay him in her special way.
When Wen Zhongnan walked into the kitchen, Xia Chan had just made the last noodles. Hearing the salute of the subordinate, he looked up and smiled at Wen Zhongnan.
"Are you a dog? It's so punctual, people who don't know think you're smelling it. ā
Wen Zhongnan raised his feet and strode in. When I saw the food on the table, I felt happy. Turning his head and smiling at Xia Cicada
"No, I just smell it. Did you do all this? It's so fragrant. Wen Zhong Nan leaned down and sniffed the smell of braised meat, and sniffed the side dishes, the smile in the corners of his eyes became thicker and thicker, and the corners of his mouth raised a smile that he hadn't even noticed.
Xia Cicada put the last noodles in the bowl, and the maid on the side immediately stepped forward and put the bowl in the tray and brought it out of the kitchen. Xia Chan walked up to Wen Zhongnan and said to the grandmother on the side
"Send that plate of braised pork to Chaeyoung, and the rest will be yours. Your second son-in-law and I will go out first. Hurry up and eat. ā
"Thank you, girl."
Xia Chan and Wen Zhongnan returned to the hall, and the maids had already set up the dishes and chopsticks. Xia Chan walked to the table, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth. Wen Zhongnan followed closely behind, and said with a doting smile on his face
"Eat slowly, and no one will rob you. Slow down and be careful of choking. ā
, Xia Chan raised his head and glanced at Wen Zhongnan with a dissatisfied expression. "Wen Zhongnan, why are you so long-winded. Nothing good can stop your mouth. Hurry up and eat. Otherwise, it won't taste good when it's cold. ā
"Well, you should eat it quickly. I must have been exhausted after a busy morning. Otherwise, don't go to the banquet of the protector in the afternoon. I'll ask someone to tell Zhao Qi about it, and just say that your body is not well. ā
Xia Chan raised his head, put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Wen Zhongnan and shook his head, "No need, this is my own business, Wen Zhongnan, I hope you can let me handle it myself." Also, I've decided to move out of Wenfu tomorrow. ā
"Tomorrow? Isn't the time too rushed? Have you found a place to live? ā
"I've found it, and it was Shopkeeper Xu who helped me find it. You can rest assured. Shopkeeper Xu's ability to do things is very good, and I have already asked Murong Ye to inquire about the place he is looking for, and it is very safe. ā
"But, Erya, aren't you thinking about it? What's wrong with you living in Wenfu. And there are a lot of nursing homes here, and they can keep you safe. ā
Xia Chan looked up at Wen Zhongnan and shook his head and said with a smile: "It's good here, but no matter how good it is, it's not my home." Not a long-term place. Wen Zhongnan, you don't want to be like this. Even if I don't live in Wenfu, I still live in the capital, if you have time one day, you can come and see me. I'm always welcome. ā
Wen Zhongnan had a touch of loss on his face, and then a wry smile rose on the corner of his mouth. Put down your chopsticks, stand up, and walk slowly to the door.
"Erya, do you really have to be like this? Don't you believe me? ā
"I ...... I didn't disbelieve you. I'm telling the truth, Wenfu is not my home after all, and it's only a matter of time before I leave. Wen Zhongnan, I know that you are good to me, but no matter how good you are......"
"No matter how good it is, it's not him, is it?" Wen Zhongnan turned around and looked at Xia Chan and sneered. "Since you insist on leaving, let's go." After Wen Zhongnan finished speaking, he turned around and strode out of the hall.
Xia Cicada stood in place for a long time and didn't come back to his senses. obviously didn't want to hurt anyone, but in the end, it seemed that things always couldn't help her. Wen Zhongnan, we are not all the way, even if I don't leave today, I will still leave one day. (To be continued.) )
