Chapter 388: Verification
"Xiaoyu, you are really too simple like this."
Wang Huaiqing leaned back on the chair and looked at Ye Xiaoyu who was making the bed and said.
In fact, there are many empty rooms in his house, and Houban is not far from West Street, Ye Xiaoyu can live in his house, but because his mother Lin is in ......
"It's okay, I'm living alone."
Ye Xiaoyu bent down to arrange the quilt and said casually.
As long as you people don't come to spend the night, she can sleep comfortably by herself, okay?
"How did Zou Youheng sleep last time?"
Wang Huaiqing looked at Ye Xiaoyu's back and asked.
“……”
Sure enough, Wang Huaiqing still remembers this stubble.
"He fell asleep on his desk that day."
I couldn't figure out the purpose of Wang Huaiqing's question, Ye Xiaoyu answered truthfully.
Wang Huaiqing didn't speak again, just leaned back in the chair and quietly looked at Ye Xiaoyu, who was facing away from him and bending down to make the bed.
"That's it! Are you going to sleep in bed or on your desk? ”
Although it is already spring, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, and Ye Xiaoyu is afraid that she will catch a cold when she lays on the ground.
"It's all over the day, I'll just lie down on the table here for a while."
Wang Huaiqing said with a smile. From the beginning, he didn't plan to sleep with Ye Xiaoyu.
Although Ye Xiaoyu is also a man, Wang Huaiqing always feels that he is more vulnerable than himself.
"Alright then, I'll go get you a quilt in the cupboard."
Fortunately, there is still a quilt in the cabinet for changing and washing, otherwise Wang Huaiqing is estimated to freeze to death at night. But even if he froze to death, Ye Xiaoyu would not agree to squeeze into the same bed with him.
"Actually, I think you can squeeze two people into this bed."
Wang Huaiqing stood up. glanced at the wooden bed placed on the counter, and looked at Ye Xiaoyu with a smile.
“……!”
"I'm serious, this bed must be enough for the two of us, we don't have to squeeze it too much."
Seeing Ye Xiaoyu's stiff face, the smile on Wang Huaiqing's face became even stronger.
"Two big men, what are you afraid of, and it's not like they haven't slept together, when we were at the inn last time, didn't we also go together."
Looking at Ye Xiaoyu, Wang Huaiqing looked forward to it.
"Okay. Then you go and lie down first. I'm going to go to the kitchen and ferment the flour first. ”
Ye Xiaoyu stiffly pulled out a smile.
Nima, she just wants to lie in bed and get a good night's sleep, why is it so difficult?
"Now?"
Wang Huaiqing looked surprised.
"Hmm."
"It's only been a day. Do you need to be so early? ”
"Of course it does. Where is it so easy to make pastries? Where would a young master like you understand the hardships of our small stall and hawker life? ”
Ye Xiaoyu continued with the words.
She really wanted to sleep. For a moment, she didn't want to ignore Wang Huaiqing, and fell directly on the bed; Or directly sue Wang Huaiqing that he is a woman, as long as he says so. This man will surely flee in fright.
"Go to bed and lie down for a while, I was joking just now, it's not easy to sleep with two people crowded, I'll just lie down at the table for a while."
As he spoke, Wang Huaiqing directly reached out and pulled Ye Xiaoyu to the bed and sat down.
From the last time he stayed at the guest house together, he could see that although Ye Xiaoyu was a man, he had the quirk of not liking to squeeze a bed with others.
"Uh......"
Seeing Wang Huaiqing like this, Ye Xiaoyu instantly softened again.
Did you just go too far?
"Lie down quickly, I don't care about you, I'll sleep on my stomach first......"
Wang Huaiqing yawned as he spoke. Then he put the quilt over himself, pillowed his head on his arms, and lay down on the table. Then he moved again, reaching out and pulling the quilt up, covering his head as well.
Since this is the case, Ye Xiaoyu is no longer polite to him, or she is sleepy, she doesn't have the strength to be polite to Wang Huaiqing anymore, blows out the oil lamp on the counter, and the whole person shrinks into the quilt.
It's so comfortable, if she can, she wants to lie like this for the rest of her life, and never get out of the bed again......

The people of Zou Mansion go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning.
Of course, this law does not apply to Zou Youheng.
When I came back last night, it was nearly two watches, and I had eaten a bun all day, Zou Youheng was hungry and was about to faint, so he sneaked into the kitchen to get a roast chicken left, and only after eating it all and wiping it off did he staggered back to his own room and lay down. At that time, the docks in the distance were already making noise.
Although Zou Youheng usually doesn't get up early, but he didn't go to bed so late, if he wanted to get up from bed at the fifth watch like everyone else, it would be too unusual. So he slept under the bed very comfortably, until there was a commotion outside the bedroom.
"The second lady is back, where is the eldest young master?"
Zou Yu's voice sounded outside the window.
Zou Youheng was originally sleeping in a daze, but as soon as he heard this sound, he got up from the bed in a flash.
With a mind full of questions, Zou Youheng hurriedly got out of bed and got dressed. Normally, his adoptive father, his father, Zou Yu, and the prefect of Zou Yu would go to the yamen very early, why is he still at home today?
The reason why Zou Youheng was able to sleep very early on weekdays was also due to the fact that Zou Yu was not at home during the day, if he stayed at home like today, even if he gave him a leopard gall, he couldn't say that he didn't dare at all, but he would definitely be taboo.
"Master, Heng'er must have been tired for the past two days, I guess I'm resting in it at this time."
Wu's voice came, although Zou Youheng was not her biological son, but because she couldn't have children and Zou Youheng was her sister's son, Wu had long regarded him as her own biological son. So every time there is something, he will always be biased towards him, and it is precisely because of this that Zou Youheng has developed an unscrupulous character outside. Of course, in order to cover Zou Yu's eyes, he is still very obedient at home.
"Dad, mother......"
Zou Youheng stepped forward and opened the door.
"Heng'er, are you okay? Is it hurt? Why didn't you say a word to your mother when you came back last night? ”
As soon as he saw Zou Youheng, Wu walked quickly in front of him. Frowning, he began to look at it carefully.
"I'm fine, mother, it's just that I'm a little tired outside all the time. Come back and rest and get some sleep. ”
Zou Youheng said with a smile.
"Youheng, did you see the kidnappers when you chased them out that day?"
While Wu was talking to Zou Youheng, Zou Yu had already walked into the room and sat down on a chair.
"Nope. When I chased them out, they had long since disappeared, and I found them yesterday by a dirt pit. ”
Zou Youheng shook his head and said truthfully.
These kidnappers dared to attack Zou Yu's concubine this time. It's really terrible.
"Who else was there?"
Zou Yu asked again.
The pattern is the same as asking questions in the courtroom.
"When I found Erniang. There was another person present. ”
Zou Youheng answered truthfully again.
Zou Yu must have asked Tian Yuyun these questions, and in the case that the two had not discussed it in advance, for the sake of insurance, he must not lie unilaterally.
"What's that man's name?"
Zou Yu picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a glass of water. I took a sip.
"Her name is Ye Xiaoyu."
"What?"
"Open a pastry shop on West Street."
Zou Youheng looked honest.
"You know?"
Took another sip of water. Zou Yu asked seemingly casually.
"Hmm. The pastries at her shop are very special, and I have been to buy them a few times, so I have become familiar with them. ”
Zou Youheng tried to be as simple as possible. He was a little afraid that Zou Yu would go to Ye Xiaoyu for questioning because of this.
"That pastry tastes really good, I heard people talk about it before, so I asked Heng'er to help me buy it a few times."
Wu was on the side to help.
"Okay, I know, then Youheng, you have a good rest."
After getting the information he wanted, Zou Yu stood up and planned to leave.
"Dad, it's okay, I slept and I feel much better now."
Sending Zou Yu and Wu to the door, Zou Youheng said with a smile.
"Heng'er, you can rest in the house today, and I'll ask the others to bring you the food later."
In the corridor, Wu turned his head and explained.
Zou Youheng held on to the door frame, smiled and nodded in agreement.
Resting in the house?
Then rest in the house.
He originally wanted to go to Ye Xiaoyu's shop for a walk after eating later. Looking at this situation, it is estimated that I can only wait until later.

Bang bang bang –
“……”
Ye Xiaoyu was sleeping on the bed wrapped in a quilt, and in a daze, she heard a deafening knock on the door, which seemed to tear down the wooden door of the shop.
"Just tear down the door so you don't have to get up and open the door......"
Full of irritability, Ye Xiaoyu muttered and turned over on the bed.
Bang –
With a sound, the whole person fell off the plank bed.
"What happened to Xiaoyu?!"
When he woke up early, Wang Huaiqing, who had been watching the carpenter build the house at the back door, heard the sound and hurriedly ran in. Then he saw an amazing scene.
- Ye Xiaoyu was wrapped in a quilt and lay on the ground like a dead pig.
The knocking on the door outside the shop continued, but Wang Huaiqing felt that the top priority was to solve the image problem of Ye Xiaoyu.
"Little fish!! Hurry up and get up, you can still fall asleep when you fall to the ground?! ”
Seeing Ye Xiaoyu sleeping contentedly wrapped in a quilt on the ground, Wang Huaiqing really didn't know whether he should laugh or cry now.
"Huh?"
The man on the ground replied vaguely, and continued to maintain the position he had just held.
"Get up, Ye Xiaoyu!! ——”
As he spoke, Wang Huaiqing squatted down and shook his body with his hand as if he was wrapped in a silkworm cocoon.
"Ah?!!! Oh - why are you here?!! Oh...... I...... Get up right away......"
As if the dream was disturbed, Ye Xiaoyu sat up from the ground in an instant, her eyes were dazed, and it took a long time to realize that she had just fallen off the bed and the person in front of her was Wang Huaiqing.
"Xiaoyu, your sleep quality is too good, right? I didn't wake up when I fell out of bed. ”
Seeing Ye Xiaoyu quickly get up and tidy up, Wang Huaiqing said a little funny.
"I guess I'm tired in the past two days, and I couldn't wake up just now."
Ye Xiaoyu said while folding the quilt. (To be continued......)
