Chapter 65: Showdown
"Mother!"
This awkward conversation finally ended in Li Ning's reprimand, after eating, Li Ning said no to Xi Duyun, and dragged Aunt Liu away, while Li Hua followed behind them, looking back at Xi Duyun step by step.
Xi Duyun returned to Qi Mansion, the sun had set, and Qi Lichen had not returned to the mansion yet, but people bought the plum blossoms that bloomed just right from the market, as well as the spicy beef bought from the wine store.
"Childe ordered the purchaser to buy it early in the morning, but unfortunately, the two shops are very lively today, especially the wine shop, and it took an hour to ......queue up to buy the beef," the servant begged, "Don't tell Childe when you turn around." ”
The vase in Xi Duyun's bedroom is full of plum blossoms, and there are two catties of spicy beef on the table, Xi Duyun is embarrassed, Qi Lichen can't help but think too highly of herself, two catties of beef, she may not be able to finish eating Haisai. And, so many flowers, so fragrant.
"Don't worry, I'm not a tongue-chewing person, will the kitchen finish dinner? I want to cook a few dishes with my own hands. ”
Xi Duyun rolled up his sleeves, and the question was not a way to hide it in his heart, so it was better to directly find Qi Lichen for a straightforward showdown.
"It hasn't started yet, it's all about waiting for the boy or girl to start arranging the cooking." The servant looked at a whole box of spicy beef in his arms, and the girl had many whimsical ideas, but I don't know what she thought of.
"Good." Xi Duyun grabbed the spicy beef and shouted as he ran, "Cuiyun! Cuiyun! Come on! ”
The Qi Mansion occupies a small area, and when she shouts like this, everyone in the Qi Mansion can hear her voice. Cuiyun counted the items in the cellar and was about to start shopping for the New Year's goods soon, and Xi Duyun's voice could be heard.
Xi Duyun asked Cuiyun to help herself, made a table of dishes, and waited for Qi Lichen to eat together when he went home. The two of them actually couldn't eat much, and when Xi Duyun saw the dishes in the kitchen, he wanted to make a whole meal, and he made seven dishes and one soup.
"The little girl didn't tell Mr. Xu about going back to Nancun, and when the girl went out, Mr. Xu came to know that the little girl was not there." Cuiyun put the food into the food box, Qi Lichen didn't know when he would come back, and the food had to be put away.
Putting aside the prejudice that Xu didn't know that he was the prince's disciple, he was dutiful as a teacher. Xi Duyu studied late, and he had never been exposed to any words before studying, so it was naturally much more difficult to teach, but he never disliked it.
He took over his master's position and taught Xi Duyu on his behalf, which really had nothing to do with the prince.
It's just because it's my husband's entrustment, so I agreed, and he himself likes to teach, and it's a personal favorite to take over this matter.
Xi Duyun patted her head, and she patronized her sister to send her sister back to Nancun to ensure her personal safety, and neglected her studying. Xi Duyun subconsciously leaned her body against the edge of the stove, and subconsciously let out a scream when she touched the sticky grease.
Cuiyun silently covered her ears, sighed, and silently went down to let people prepare hot water and soaphorns for bathing. The people in the courtyard were busy for a while, and Xi Duyunwo's earth-colored face in the bathtub eased slightly.
There was a screen in the inner room of the bedroom, and the hot water vapor spread from behind the screen to the whole room, and after a while, Xi Duyun was surrounded by smoky water vapor, Xi Duyun sighed in satisfaction, it was really disgusting just now.
One thing to say, what Cuiyun said reminded Xi Duyun that Xi Duyu was at the right age to study. said that sending her back to Nancun was for Xi Duyu's good, but it was also for the sake of being able to feel at ease, which was selfish.
Xi Duyu grew up later, and someone came to the door to propose marriage, because of his knowledge, he inevitably looked down on Xi Duyu.
Holding it in the palm of her hand like a baby, Xi Duyun can see that she can't be wronged at all. Even if she abandons her life's major events, studying is very important for a woman, and blindly trapping Xi Duyu in Nancun is really harming her future.
Xu Zhi is not a difficult person to speak, Xiaozhi is emotional, he should be willing, it is a little far away to go to Nancun, and I don't know if I will disagree if I will go on a trip in a few days, Xi Duyun sighed heavily.
The point is! If you want to have a showdown with Qi Lichen, how to tell Xi Duyu's affairs naturally. Xi Duyun racked his brains and thought for a long time, and the answer was: there is no way.
Gu Jianglin is the fifth prince, Xu doesn't know that he is a disciple of the fifth prince, they are close to Qi Lichen, even if they really have the intention of friendship, they must have other purposes, and keeping a distance is the best way to get along.
Dishes, or made early. Xi Duyun leaned back in the tub with great regret, and after a moment of silence, got up and lit the incense burner on the table.
When taking a bath, it is better to light incense to calm down the thoughts of the brain, Xi Duiyun opened the petals on the water, put Qi Lichen's matter aside first, and then think about it after taking a bath, Xi Duiyun kicked the water and hummed a song, leaving Qi Lichen's matter behind.
Completely forgetting about the meal, Qi Lichen sat in the lobby and waited for half an hour without seeing Xi Duyun's figure, Cuiyun and Bai Ye stood by the door, both of them looked away, and secretly complained in their hearts.
"What are Twilight doing?" Qi Lichen cleaned up the official documents that he had squeezed two days ago in Qingyu Pavilion, and Cuiyun sent someone to pass the word, saying that Xi Duyun had prepared a meal, and asked him if he wanted to go back to the house earlier, and Qi Lichen hurried back after handling the last official documents.
Sitting down with great interest and waiting for Xi Duyun to come over, this wait was half an hour, and the daylily waited for the cold to see Xi Duyun's figure. Although she didn't have anything to do, Cuiyun still had a cold scalp: "The girl is bathing." ”
Xi Duyun bathed several times a day in Qi Mansion was already a common thing, and it was not surprising. However, before Qi Lichen came back, Xi Duyun had been washing for half an hour, and now an hour had passed.
Judging from experience, Xi Duyun had probably forgotten all about having dinner with Qi Lichen.
"It's okay, go get the book, I'll pass the time." Qi Lichen sat in front of the table for a day, saying that he was not tired.
Let people set up a screen in the lobby, move a chaise longue, and hold a military book to look through. Qi Lichen flipped through most of the book, and Xi Duyun hadn't appeared yet, and when he was about to fall asleep, Xi Duyun was late.
"Girl! Why did you come, Childe is almost asleep. Cuiyun and Bai Ye looked forward to Xi Duyun's figure, and the two almost cried with joy, but before Cuiyun finished speaking, Xi Duiyun did not advance but retreated.
"Since your son is asleep, then I'll go back first, and I'll come back when he wakes up." Xi Duyun grinned weakly, and it was simply the most wrong decision he had made to eat with Qi Lichen again.
"Where do you want to go?"
Before Xi Duyun turned his head, Qi Lichen's cold voice sounded behind the screen, Bai Ye and Cuiyun looked at each other, and both retreated with interest, Xi Duyun smiled and grabbed Cuiyun's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "It's not that it's good to share weal and woe!" ”
Cuiyun glanced at Xi Duyun's hand, and broke Xi Duyun's hand away expressionlessly: "It's just that Miss said it unilaterally." ”
After that, Cuiyun kept slipping away for a moment, the pavilion master was angry, if she really stayed, it would not be to share the joys and sorrows, only she was a poor person who suffered! How could the pavilion master blame Miss Xi! It's not like grabbing them and counting them down.
Xi Duiyun stood alone in front of the stairs in the lobby, neither advancing nor retreating, just when he was in a dilemma, Qi Lichen walked out from behind the screen, and stopped when he walked out of the screen, which meant that Xi Duiyun wanted to go over by himself.
"I ...... Can I go back? ”
Xi Duyun shrugged her shoulders, her feet were honestly glued to the ground, she dared to promise that as long as she dared to run, Qi Lichen would dare to lift her up and take her directly to the bedroom to do something.
"Will you come by yourself, or will you let me pass."
