Chapter 43: The Night Detective
Fu Yuchen is going to the barracks of the Tokyo garrison outside Bianjing City tomorrow to perform his duties, because he intends to use his charm to impress the officers under his command, so as to attract the young talents among those officers to vote, he called Xue Ying, who was born in a military family, to come over, and the two sat in the study together to do homework.
When he was almost done, Fu Liu came over to talk back, saying that Dr. Xu asked him to send the silver ticket rewarded by his son to his home first.
Fu Yuchen just nodded when he heard this, but did not speak.
Fu Liu saluted and was about to retreat, but was stopped by Fu Yuchen.
He turned around and looked at Fu Yuchen suspiciously, and said, "Childe, ...... you"
Fu Yuchen groaned slightly, and said, "I'll take Fu Song with me!" "The people of the Xu family have never seen Fu Song, but it is more convenient.
Looking at Fu Liu's somewhat surprised expression, he lowered his eyes: "Find me a set of your clothes and send them over!" β
Although Fu Liu didn't know the reason, he had been blindly trusting his son-in-law for more than ten years, so he agreed.
However, Fu Liu has always been smart, and after thinking about it, he understood. He looked at his son's pretended serious face, and felt that his son-in-law was like a hairy young man who had just fallen in love, and he would be stupid whenever he encountered something related to Miss Xu. Fu Liu couldn't help laughing, and found a reason to retreat.
Fu Yuchen, who was dressed as a small servant, followed Fu Song to Xu's house at night.
Seeing Xu Cancan's mother, Xu Wang, he followed Fu Song and saluted.
Fu Song explained his intentions and presented a burden.
As soon as Fu Yuchen entered the hall, Xu Wang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but glance at Fu Yuchen several times, feeling that this handsome little guy with a little sick face seemed to have seen it, so he glanced at it again and again.
Being looked at by Xu Cancan's mother like this, Fu Yuchen's face burned a little, and he knew that his thin face was red again, so he lowered his head and said nothing.
Fu Song also noticed Mrs. Xu's unusual attention to Gongzi, so he covered his mouth and coughed quietly, "Mrs. Xu, Dr. Xu said that everything is here!" β
Fu Song is very sociable, and he was sent to Yan Lou by Fu Yuchen because of this ability, so Yan Yan accompanied Xu Wang and said a lot of kind words, delaying a lot of time.
Fu Yuchen waited and waited, but he still didn't see Xu Cancan's trace, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
Fu Song had finished talking about all the topics that could be said, so he had to sneak a glance at Gongzi, and found that Gongzi seemed to be distracted, so he asked Xu Wang to say goodbye.
Fu Yuchen didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, and as soon as he came out, he saw Xu Cancan, and his heart couldn't help pounding.
Xu Cancan was just looking at it with some curiosity, but the thin young man followed closely behind a young man with a thin figure, in the dim light of the lantern, his skin was as fair as jade, his eyebrows were thick, the bridge of his nose was straight, but his lips were a little white, he looked like a handsome sick man, but he was wearing a black summer robe that was often worn by a young man, and a black belt was tied around his waist.
He crossed the threshold, stopped, glanced around, and the moment he saw Xu Cancan, his dark eyes seemed to light up, and he couldn't take his eyes off Xu Cancan.
Xu Cancan and Fu Yuchen looked at each other, as if fireworks were blooming from afar, and the surroundings became silent, leaving only one heart pounding in their chests.
Her two feet walked towards Fu Yuchen as if she could make her own decisions.
At this time, Xu Wang's family took Ding's mother out to see off the guests, and saw that the two Dingguo Mansion servants who came to deliver things for Xianggong were still standing at the door, so he smiled and ordered Ding's mother: "Ding's mother, go and send the two masters!" β
Xiao Xiang and Biyun stood side by side behind Xu Cancan, quietly looking at Fu Yuchen, she always felt that she had seen that handsome little guy, so she quietly pulled Biyun's sleeve and muttered: "Sister Biyun, that good-looking me seems to-"
Biyun reached out to cover her mouth, then looked at her with a warning in his eyes.
Xiao Xiang was immediately silenced and didn't dare to say any more.
Fu Yuchen glanced at Xu Cancan deeply, blinked slowly, and then walked towards the door with Mother Ding with Fu Song.
Xu Cancan always felt that Fu Yuchen's most obsessive glance was very meaningful, so he looked at Fu Yuchen's back and fell into deep thought.
Xu Wang looked at Xu Cancan, found that his daughter was looking at the direction of the gate blankly, and said with a smile: "That little guy in the Guogong Mansion is really good-looking, but it doesn't look very good!" β
He wondered again: "Dingguo Gong would actually raise this kind of little guy who looks like he will fall down as soon as the wind blows......"
Xu Cancan: "...... Mother, I want to take a bath! β
Xu Wang's attention immediately turned to Xu Cancan, and nodded: "Okay!" looked at Ding's mother: "Old Ding, the girl wants to take a bath, boil the water!" β
Xu Cancanchi = naked - body soaked in the bathtub, leaving only the head outside. She begged her mother helplessly: "Mother, I'm taking a bath, you can go out!" β
Xu Wang didn't seem to hear Xu Cancan's words, she bent down and stood by the bathtub, pointing at Xu Cancan's already quite large breasts, with a worried face: "Cancan, you are a little too fat here, how bad you look in clothes!" β
Xu Cancan had just washed his hair, his face was still wet, and when he heard this, he hurriedly covered his too "fat" plump chest with his arms, glaring at his mother and silently condemning her.
Xu Wang sighed and said, "Why don't you eat less in the future?" Not yet sixteen years old, so long to be laughed at! β
Xu Cancan glared at his mother, who was suddenly a little out of tune, and snorted vigorously: "Mother, won't I wear a loose shirt?!" β
Xu Wangshi was a little sneering, but said: "Or, my mother sewed a bust for you, and you wrapped that one?" It's not so obvious when you wrap it up! β
Xu Cancan: "...... Mother, you go out first! β
Xu Wang's family went out, and Biyun took Xiaoxiang to the south dark room, and Xu Cancan was the only one left in the bedroom.
She soaked in the water, thought about it and thought, and kept struggling whether she should wait for everyone in the family to sleep before she went to see if Fu Yuchen was waiting for her outside the gate.
Xu Cancan's brain hurt when he thought about it, but he still felt that Fu Yuchen was signaling her to leave.
Thinking about it, she got up and got out of the tub, wrapped a large cloth towel around it, and took the candlestick to look for clothes in the closetβshe didn't plan to wear the clean clothes and pants that Biyun put on the screen.
Xu Cancan worked hard for a long time, and finally made up his mind, took out a big red bandeau embroidered with red silk thread and Tilian, and took a black silk cardigan and a plain white thousand-pleated skirt.
As soon as she had chosen her clothes, Biyun came over.
Xu Cancan didn't see Xiao Xiang, so he asked, "Xiao Xiang is asleep?" β
"Yes," Biyun replied, "She drank a cup of tea and lay down, but Lu Dao fell asleep after a short time, and the slave waited for the girl to sleep before going back to the house to rest"βXu Cancan lived in the dark room in the north, and Biyun and Xiaoxiang lived in the dark room in the south together.
Xu Cancan was silent.
Biyun stepped forward without saying a word, took a cloth towel and began to help Xu Cancan wipe his hair.
After wiping Xu Cancan's long hair half-dry, Biyun took out the bandeau, Luo Yi and long skirt that Xu Cancan took out and waited for Xu Cancan to put them on.
The moonlight shone in through the pane, divided into a small grid and reflected on the ground in front of the window, Xu Cancan lay on the bed sideways, looking at the moonlight on the ground in front of the window, and listening to the dark sound in the south with anxiety.
Biyun was probably too tired tonight, her snort was heavy, and Xu Cancan could hear her snoring here.
However, she still tossed and turned in bed, and she never made up her mind.
Just then, she heard a "squeak" from the bright room, as if the door had been pushed out. Xu Cancan's scalp suddenly went numb, and his body stiffened.
