Chapter 22 The Old Man of the Palace

I found an inn in the county to stay, but I didn't feel sleepy.

Back then, Zhongli Jiujiu's approach was obviously wrong, people have memories, no matter how introspective or guilty they are now, things are always done. Xu Buling compares his heart to his heart, if someone messes around outside his house and pesters him, he doesn't have to wait until now, he will break his leg on the spot.

Picnic bathing ...... Tickle Powder......

Leaning on the small bed of the inn, Xu Buling held the back of his head and imagined the scene at that time, not knowing how to evaluate it. Ning Yuhe was obviously angry, and it was unlikely that he would forgive Zhong Lijiujiu by looking at his appearance. He didn't want to be a good old man to persuade Ning Yuhe to forgive, of course, it was impossible to be hostile to Zhongli Jiujiu because of this, what if he really 'didn't move', it was better for them to deal with it themselves.

Knowing that Zhongli Jiujiu was Miss Chuchu's master still surprised Xu Buling. From the current point of view, both the master and apprentice are lacking roots, and they are not stupid, but the idea is quite inexplicable, compared to the Chu Chu girl, it is more normal, but I don't know where to run. He also thought that he would be able to 'meet by chance' when he arrived in the Central Plains, but he didn't expect to meet someone else's master.

This time you can't mess around anymore, Xiao Ning is a headache now, and with another pair of masters and apprentices, I'm afraid you can really experience a 'six-horse corpse'......

Listening attentively, Zhongli Jiujiu was as quiet as ever, and Ning Yuhe was talking privately in a whisper:

“…… Manzhi, you have to beware of that woman, she is very clever and deceitful, and her methods are very insidious, there are some messy poisons hidden in her body, what makes people laugh and cry......"

"Sounds amazing......"

"What's amazing, something that can't be on the table on the rivers and lakes. Back then, she still wanted to rely on these things to trick Qingye into becoming an apprentice, but fortunately, Qingye was smart and didn't believe her......"

“…… Sister Daning, that woman is so beautiful, close to Xu Gongzi, do you have a crush on Xu Gongzi? ”

"She wants to be beautiful, an old cow, and she wants to eat tender grass...... Anyway, Ling'er took her, could it be that she fell in love with her beauty? ”

"How is it possible, Gongzi Xu is cold and arrogant, and he is not interested in a woman's appearance, otherwise Sister Daning would have suffered a long time ago, how could she recognize you as a master......"

"Hmm...... It's also ......."

Xu Buling listened for a moment, his face was strange, and his already small sleepiness was completely gone, and he wanted to listen carefully. It didn't take long for the news to come from there:

"Sister Daning, I'm a little thirsty, go down and find some water to drink......"

"There's tea on the table."

"I want to drink hot water......"

Then came the sound of the door opening, the sound of footsteps knocking downstairs, and not long after, the sound of going upstairs was heard again, the footsteps were soft, the sound was very small, and he walked to the door and began to pick his deadbolt.

Xu Buling blinked his eyes, and after aiming, he covered the quilt and closed his eyes.

Squeak –

The door opens and closes.

Zhu Manzhi sneakily entered the guest room, wearing a floral dress, because he had already slept, his hair was scattered, it was quite long, it was waist-high, not tall, it looked small, but his chest was bulging, and he didn't seem to be in figure for a few months.

After Zhu Manzhi closed the door, he trotted to the bed, looked down a few times, then raised his hand and shook Xu Buling's shoulder, and whispered:

"Gongzi Xu, Gonggong Xu...... Woo—"

As soon as he screamed twice, his arm was pulled down and planted directly on Xu Buling's body. Zhu Manzhi was startled, and hurriedly wanted to get up, but Xu Buling grabbed his wrist and couldn't get up, and said with some shame:

"Young Master Xu, what are you doing?"

Xu Buling looked awake, and his eyes were a little guarded: "Miss Zhu, I treat you as a brother, what do you want to climb into my bed at night?" ”

Zhu Manzhi withdrew his hand, but he couldn't pull it out, so he knelt on the futon and whispered:

"I don't want to do anything, I can't sleep at night, I have something to talk to you."

Xu Buling slept next to him a little and patted the pillow next to him: "Say it." ”

“……”

Zhu Manzhi looked at the pillow, his face was red, and he was a little twisted:

"Gongzi Xu, what do you want, Daning is still beside ......"

Xu Buling was inexplicable: "Between brothers, lie down and talk about what?" ”

Zhu Manzhi glanced at Xu Buling, and saw that his eyes were very pure, as if he really didn't mean anything else, for some reason, he was still a little lost in his heart. After hesitating for a moment, he lay on his side on the pillow in a regular manner, put his hands under his face, and looked at Xu Buling's side face:

"Xu Gongzi, you said that you were going to Jiangnan to propose, which girl is such a good blessing? Is Xiao Ning Xiao Chu good-looking? ”

Xu Buling thought for a while: "The eldest lady of the Xiao family in Huainan is very beautiful, and she looks exactly like the queen mother. ”

"Oh...... Isn't that a few years older than Childe, and Childe likes her? I've heard that those big families like to climb relatives, and some of them are not suitable at all, so they are forcibly put together. A person like Childe should marry a girl he likes as a wife......"

Xu Buling thought for a while: "I like it very much, people are smart, and they will come to trouble." ”

"It's going to happen......"

Zhu Manzhi was thoughtful, obviously had some ideas, and began to talk about the old story again:

"I think the son should marry someone who is a younger grade, who can speak, obey the son's words, and be able to do martial arts...... Huainan Xiao is such a big family, the eldest lady will definitely not know kung fu, and her temperament will definitely be proud, and if she marries back, she can only be used as an ornament, and it is not interesting at all......"

Xu Buling turned his head: "Then who to marry...... It's hard to find people like that......"

Zhu Manzhi blinked his eyes wide, pondered for several times, and stopped talking, and the words became "I think Xiao Ning is quite suitable, stupid, Childe is so smart, he must say what he wants to say......"

"That's right, find Xiao Ning in a few days, you go and help talk about ......"

"......, hum~" for the Academy

"Hehe......"

The room was quiet.

In late autumn, when the weather was slightly cool, Xu Buling lifted the futon, covered the full branches, and also lay on his side, facing each other, eye to eye.

Zhu Manzhi was sulking, but when he saw Xu Buling turn around, his body stiffened, and he shrank back and wanted to get up, but he was pressed by Xu Buling's arm, and then the handsome and indescribable cheeks came over.

"Ahh

Zhu Manzhi didn't expect that the arrogant and decent Xu Gongzi would really be beastly, his face turned red, and he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and snorted:

"Xu Gongzi, what are you doing? How can brothers be so ...... between brothers"

Xu Buling didn't kiss it, looking at the little girl who was writhing wildly, with a serious expression:

"This is called a veneer ceremony, a custom in the Western Regions, I just learned ......"

Zhu Manzhi's eyes were embarrassed, and he covered his mouth and muttered: "Young Master Xu, I'm not really stupid...... Don't be like this, ruin your image ......"

Xu Buling blinked, and didn't bother to pretend, so he leaned over and took a sip on Manzhi's forehead.

Zhu Manzhi shuddered, this time he was really anxious, and pushed Xu Buling's chest:

"Oh~ Xu Gongzi, don't come to the real thing, I haven't found my father yet, let my father know, it will break your legs......"

It's a pretty big threat.

Xu Buling hooked the corners of his mouth, leaned on the pillow, and looked at the little face close at hand:

"Then you choose for yourself, be a brother or a wife, just this opportunity, the people in the rivers and lakes are hard to chase, I will take it seriously."

Zhu Manzhi was still a little stunned, and blinked his eyes wide: "The first guest who said yes...... Besides, didn't the son go to Jiangnan to marry his wife, and Xiao Ning ......"

Xu Buling looked very serious: "I will be the prince in the future, I can marry more than a hundred ladies, first come, first served, late I have to go to the back, if you think about it, you have to be the old man." ”

“???”

Zhu Manzhi is the first time to see a person who can say such righteous words in shameless words, and he feels that the image of the arrogant Xu Fairy in his heart is sparse, and he wanted to be angry, but he still didn't dare, and turned his back to Xu Buling:

"I ...... I was too young to think about it...... I feel that I have just grown up, and I have never even broken through the rivers and lakes, what a pity to get married...... Don't ask~"

"Then be the old man, in the future, everyone in the family will be older than you, and you have to ask everyone to call me sister."

“…… How can this work, you leave me a place, I will find my father and mother, and I will talk about it after thinking about it......"

"How many places do you have?"

"Is the boss okay?"

“……”

Xu Buling looked at Zhu Manzhi's serious appearance, got a little closer, and tried to hug Xiao Manzhi.

Zhu Manzhi's body stiffened, his heart pounded, hesitated for a moment, still didn't struggle, just whispered:

"Let you hug it, that kind of thing really doesn't work......"

"What kind of thing?"

Zhu Manzhi's face turned a little red, and he wanted to pose innocently and cutely, but he couldn't put it out at this moment, so he could only gently push it with his elbow:

"I'm not a fool, I've heard meat jokes from books...... What else could it be......"

Xu Buling hugged for a moment, and suddenly felt a little funny: "Manzhi, I always treat you as a brother, I really don't feel anything when I hug you like this...... It's like hugging a man......"

???

Zhu Manzhi's small eyebrows wrinkled, and he was suddenly unhappy, lowered his head and glanced at the very proud placket, and gave a sentence:

"Xu Gongzi, are you okay with your eyes?"

Xu Buling's face sank, and he raised his hand to measure her size.

"Ahh

Zhu Manzhi's face was embarrassed, and some were scared and nervous, and he hid incoherently.

As a result, in the next room, there was a light cough, and Ning Yuhe's slightly strange voice:

"Ling'er, are there any mosquitoes? How did it 'buzz'? ”

Zhu Manzhi's eyes were panicked, and he cautiously pushed away Xu Buling's hand, wanting to run back.

Xu Buling was not afraid, picked his chin, and gestured to his face.

Zhu Manzhi was a little dazed, thought for a moment, then raised his hand and patted Xu Buling's face, then hurriedly turned over and ran out, and muttered suspiciously: "Xu Gongzi, you still have this hobby, it feels weird......"

??

Xu Buling touched his face, and for a while he really couldn't figure out whether Manzhi was pretending to be stupid or really stupid......
