Chapter 208: Yard Weeding
Although it is already autumn time, the autumn tiger has not yet dispersed, and it still looks hot and dry in short-sleeved and short-sleeved clothes standing in the sun.
Zhou Ruocheng wore a straw hat, a vest and big pants, and white cotton gloves in his hands, squatting in a corner of his garden, uprooting those unknown weeds.
Although pulling these tightly rooted grasses out of the soil is a rather pleasant experience, it is also very physically demanding, and after less than half an hour, Zhou Ruocheng was already sweating.
"Eh,, is pulling weeds such a tiring thing?" Zhou Ruocheng wiped the sweat from his head.
"The weeds in the garden will grow every quarter, if they are not well handled, they will compete with the ornamental plants for planting, and most of the plants in the garden are more expensive, if the weeds cause bad growth, it will be worth the loss." Stella, who was standing on the side, said.
"Huh? Did these things be planted here in the first place? Zhou Ruocheng asked again.
"Some of them were planted when this manor was built, and some were planted by the emperor." Stella replied.
"Huh? Emperor? Zhou Ruocheng was also stunned.
"Yes, this was originally the house used by the emperor to stay when he went south, but rest assured, the emperor was only a prince at that time, and it was still a private visit." Stella replied, "It won't cause unnecessary trouble to the sir." ”
"The emotional emperor gave me all his southern villas, which is really affectionate and righteous." Zhou Ruocheng muttered.
"Eh, I'm dying of fever, when will I finish it?" Not far from Zhou Ruocheng, there was a girl in a vest and shorts, who was really straightening her sore waist now.
"Now the two of you are only doing a full eighth, please speed up the progress, by the way, this work gardener can solve it in half a day." Stella said.
"Isn't it? Stella, will you help me? Hua Xijin also looked depressed and begged.
"I'm sorry, I'm here to supervise the two of you on the orders of my wife, and I can't help the two of you without my wife's permission." Stella replied.
"Ahh I can't take it anymore... Hua Jijin cried and raised her head and howled.
As for why Zhou Ruocheng and Hua Xijin want to weed here? Of course, it was because of the punishment for not returning home at night, in fact, it was mainly the punishment for staying overnight at Ning Yuqi's house, it took Zhou Ruocheng a long time to explain the ins and outs of the matter to Zhao Qingyuan, including the fact that Ning Yuqi likes his second uncle, this really can't be said that Zhou Ruocheng is a big mouth, if he doesn't explain, Zhou Ruocheng will really jump into the Yellow River and can't wash it away.
Zhao Qingyuan finally expressed her understanding for this matter, after all, she is not a devil, right, but even so, Zhou Ruocheng still gave Zhou Ruocheng the task of weeding, and Hua Xijin, as one of the initiators of this matter, naturally cannot get rid of it, so she must also accept punishment. ”
"Anyway, I haven't seen Zhan Xiaoyan recently? Where did she go? Zhou Ruocheng suddenly asked.
"Miss Zhan has been going out a lot lately, saying that she is not bored to stay at home for anything, so she goes out to have some fun." Stella replied.
"She just went out like this with a girl's family? Aren't those who are unfamiliar with life afraid of any danger? Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"IMHO, to show small
Sister's kung fu, there are few people in Shanghai who can do anything to her, and Mr. doesn't need to go alone. Stella said again.
"Anyway, if you meet her, tell her, let her not run outside, in case something happens one day, she can't come to the rescue in time, and now Zhang Qing is gone, and the thugs around her are left." Zhou Ruocheng said to Stella.
"Let's ask Mr. and Miss Zhan to talk about this matter himself." Stella replied.
"Why?" Zhou Ruocheng asked suspiciously, "Do you have a holiday with Zhan Xiaoyan?" ”
"No, it's just because I'm the head of this family, there are actually a lot of things to manage, and there are many starting situations, such as the two supervising here today, I really don't have time to help Mr. do this kind of thing, and I still hope that Mr. will do what he can." Stella said.
"To put it bluntly, you're just troublesome, aren't you?" Zhou Ruocheng said bluntly.
"Sir, you're really discerning." Stella didn't deny it.
“。。。。。。” Zhou Ruocheng was also speechless, it was actually quite interesting to have such a wonderful housekeeper.
"What's more, sir, even if Miss Zhan is not there, I think I have the ability to protect everyone." Stella said with a solemn expression.
"Really?" Zhou Ruocheng stood up.
Before the words fell, suddenly a strong wind blew on the door in front of him, which made Zhou Ruocheng startled, and he couldn't help but retreat.
The gust of wind was actually caused by Stella's kicking, and now one of her legs was raised above her head, with her hands behind her back, and the other leg standing firmly like a straight pine.
In the end, Zhou Ruocheng sat on the ground unsteadily, looking at Stella blankly, the kicking leg just now was rubbing in front of his nose, and the kicking wind also blew Zhou Ruocheng's head and face, so thinking about it, Stella is definitely a practitioner.
"I'm sorry sir, the main reason for doing this is to make my husband believe in my strength, and I'm sorry for making my husband frightened." Stella saluted Zhou Ruocheng, and then walked over and pulled Zhou Ruocheng up.
"I'll just say that the emperor won't just find someone to show him this house, right?" Zhou Ruocheng muttered.
"I still have to declare my sir's mistake, this house is now my sir's house, so I am also sir's man." Stella said.
"Uhhh Looking at the serious girl in front of him, Zhou Ruocheng was also a little absolutely embarrassed, this kind of statement was too misleading.
"Zhao Qingyuan! Your husband is doing something to other girls again!! Hua Xijin in the back shouted directly at the top of her voice.
"Your sister! Believe me or not, sew this stinky mouth of yours for you! Zhou Ruocheng shouted.
"Agreed, please let me implement this plan." Stella rolled up her sleeves as she spoke.
。。。。。。。。
After a short rest after lunch, Zhou Ruocheng and Hua Xijin came to the garden again, the weeds were more or less inexhaustible for the two of them, and it depended on when Zhao Qingyuan swallowed this breath, Zhao Qingyuan still had a cold face when eating, and Zhou Ruocheng did not reply when she talked to her, which also made Zhou Ruocheng a little depressed.
Now it can be said that the weather is the hottest time of the day, and it is a little cooler to wear a straw hat, and look at this green in the sun
Some yellowed grass, and the two of them also looked helpless.
"I said Zhou Ruocheng, can't you coax Qingyuan? Aren't you good at coaxing girls? Hua Jijin said helplessly.
"There's still one more opportunity left." Zhou Ruocheng said.
"What's the trigger?" Hua Jijin asked.
"The girls nowadays are very snobbish, okay, I coax it empty-handed Now it doesn't make much sense to Qingyuan, I have to take something to make Qingyuan happy." Zhou Ruocheng said.
"What about things?" Hua Jijin asked again.
"I don't know." Zhou Ruocheng shrugged.
"Aren't you the same as you say?" Hua Xijin buried the road.
"So pull it out! Work hard, now facing Qingyuan's window, maybe she will soften her heart and let me stop when she sees our back. Zhou Ruocheng said.
"Ahh Hua Jijin also had no choice, and walked forward with Zhou Ruocheng.
Thirty minutes later
"I believe you're a ghost!" Hua Xijin looked at Zhou Ruocheng with a depressed face: "Qingyuan, I'm afraid I'm taking a nap, I'm afraid it is!" ”
"Huh? Am I doing this trick in vain? Zhou Ruocheng glanced at the window behind him with some suspicion.
"It doesn't matter if you toss around, don't take me with you! Eh, it's so hot! Hua Xijin fanned herself with her hands, naturally sweating, and even saw the underwear stolen from it through the soaked vest.
Zhou Ruocheng glanced at Stella who was standing on the side and was still wearing a housekeeper uniform, the other party was now standing on the side with her eyes closed, and her shadow was even thicker under the sun.
"Aren't you hot Stella?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"The mind is calm and naturally cool." Stella replied with her eyes closed, then watched as a strand of sweat slowly trickled down her forehead.
It was at this time that someone from outside the fence was shouting, "Ice soda, ice soda!" Chilled ice soda! ”
Zhou Ruocheng always felt that this voice was so familiar?
Hua Jijin came directly to the energy, "Ice soda!" Do you want to buy some back? ”
"Whatever you want, buy! Why not buy it? Zhou Ruocheng also said.
"Two, your current work is weeding, if you don't finish it as soon as possible, your wife will still blame you." Stella said.
"I have a treat for sodas, and I want to drink as much as I want." Zhou Ruocheng waved his hand.
"Sir's order is also an order, since Mr. said so, please Miss Hua take a trip." Stella changed her words instantly, saying no, but her thoughts were still very honest.
"Okay! How much to buy? Hua Xijin suddenly became energetic, stood up and asked.
"It's good for you to buy a dozen bottles of him, if you buy less, you won't quench your thirst, and if you buy more, you're afraid of wasting? Go quickly, if you don't go, people will leave. Zhou Ruocheng said.
"Huh!" Hua Jinjin ran out, shouting "Eh! Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I'm going to buy a soda!! ”
Zhou Ruocheng sat on the grass, watching the increasingly vicious sun shining on the grass, there was an indescribable heat on his body, and the occasional wind blowing, because it was autumn, it was cold, and it was quite comfortable.
"Ahh Zhou Ruocheng looked up at the sky, "This little day is really fucking comfortable." ”
Is it really pleasant? Zhou Ruocheng couldn't say it himself.
