Chapter 23: The Sun of the East (10)
When he returned to the East Kitchen from the courtyard where the guards were located, Yi Lan was in no mood to cook. was going to go back to the twilight hospital directly to find the "culprit" to settle the account, but in the end, he was expected to be cowardly, so he turned back.
Although she thought that "if there is anything left, take it to the courtyard, if there is nothing left, it will be his life", Yi Lan still hoped to leave her a little food, otherwise she would not be able to imagine what would be waiting for her when she went back empty-handed.
When she walked to the door of the East Kitchen for the third time, the disciple in charge of the meal happened to come to her, saying that he knew that the deputy chief had not eaten for a day, and that when he saw that she had only come to stay twice or three times, he cooked rice and stir-fried a few dishes, and he could eat them after a while.
A quarter of an hour later, Yi Lan declined the request of the East Kitchen disciple to help her deliver food, carried a tray in her hand and another on her head, and finally returned to the Dusk Courtyard with half a drift and half a walk.
Xuan Yu is not there.
This time, Yi Lan thought about something.
When she set the dishes and dishes, his breath appeared behind her out of thin air. Yi Lan paused, slowly put down the hand holding the chopsticks, and did not turn back: "If Yi Lian wants to stay in Xiangzhou to protect you, it is more convenient to live here." ”
Xuan Yu was slightly stunned, and smiled slowly: "It's okay, he has already booked a room in a nearby inn." ”
"But he still comes and hangs around from time to time, and when you feel him coming, you sneak out from time to time to see." Yi Lan straightened up, "Yi Lian drove a carriage to the villa today, and the reason why he was not stopped is because the escort team in the hidden places has never stopped people who come to the South China Sea openly. ”
After a pause, she lowered her eyes and added, "But if he only wanders around the villa and doesn't come in, he will be treated as a suspicious person." Even if he has strong martial arts and deep internal strength, the more than 100 pairs of eyes stationed nearby will not be blind. ”
She didn't continue, she walked directly to the other side of the round table and sat down, looked carefully at the dishes on the table with her chin propped up, picked up the bowl and spoon placed on the opposite side and scooped half a bowl of fish soup first.
Xuan Yu sat down face to face with her, took the soup she handed over, took a sip first, and then said, "What, where did I make you angry?" ”
Her tone was too wrong, obviously angry, but she didn't know how to say it or didn't dare to say it, she was angry and she was strange, and she changed unconsciously.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, she broke her skills, and she was stunned for a long time, before her face showed an aggrieved and helpless look, grabbed her chopsticks and began to poke rice: "I don't think it's safe for Yi Lian to stay outside." Biting his lip, he added: "...... For you. ”
Xuan raised his eyebrows, put down the soup bowl that had been drunk, and looked at her in a good mood: "How is it not safe?" ”
Yi Lan thought for a moment, told what happened at the gate of the villa in the afternoon, and emphasized: "The martial arts are very strong, but the head is not very smart, as soon as he opens his mouth, he calls me 'madam', and only two words expose his master." If you don't see anyone, it's okay to only arrange a thug's task, and ...... else It's not very safe. ”
Seeing that he just lowered his eyebrows, seemed to be still laughing, and did not make a statement, Yi Lan continued: "Now that all the major sects are near Lingzhou, it is not without Xiangzhou, he lives in the villa, at least there is no need to worry about the news that you are here will be leaked." He was a little embarrassed: "I know that the person who doesn't trust you is not good for me, but he gives me the feeling that he is not very reliable." ”
Xuan Yu finally laughed, looked up at her and said, "I didn't say that I wouldn't let him reveal his identity, he added the drama himself." ”
Yi Lan was stunned for a moment, and asked for a moment, "Why?" ”
Xuan shrugged: "Because I said, 'Madame is more stupid, and she likes stupid people', maybe he just wants to make you happy." ”
She raised her eyebrows and retorted on the spot: "I'm not stupid. ”
"Of course you're not stupid." He said, his eyebrows softly curved, "It's my lovely and intelligent beauty." ”
Yi Lan looked at him for a moment as if he was distracted, and his face turned red, and he hurriedly lowered his head and sent the rice to his mouth.
She was shy, but he didn't take the opportunity to bully people, and he wasn't going to take advantage of the situation to tease, but suddenly became serious: "He is outside, he can help me find out the real-time news of various sects, and by the way, find out Chengfu's next move, and even send people to contact the other seven branches of the high-level reserve combat force." Letting him stay here is a mistaken role. ”
Yi Lan accidentally bit his tongue and squinted and nodded.
Anyway, who should use what he knows best, and it's not a waste of wood, let alone a retard.
It just feels that everyone is unfathomable, and the surface is actually the same, maybe she is really stupid.
Xuan Yu also picked up the chopsticks, glanced at her, and remembered her tone that was not quite right, and still asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Yi Lan swallowed half a bowl of white rice in a few breaths before telling him about the rabbit nest stabbed by the guards, and even more specifically emphasized that "I bought your rabbits from Chongxiao Pavilion", and bit his cheeks and glared at him.
She thought that he asked Yi Lian to send those baby rabbits, and what he wanted was the effect of setting off a rabbit frenzy in the whole villa, and then look at her jokes. Who thought that he really didn't expect it to come to such a point, he was obviously stunned, and only after a moment did he close his eyes and laugh: "You are right, the people in the South China Sea are indeed as cute as you." ”
When she was in Keyiju last year, when she mentioned her profession, she would repeatedly say to the "old woman" and "old gentleman" that "our children in the South China Sea are very cute".
He smiled and looked up at her again: "You said before that you wanted to raise rabbits, and you people in the South China Sea are licking a cat, you are very helpless, so I asked Yi Lian to find these little guys to send them to distract them, I didn't expect it to become like this." ”
I didn't expect it, there are so many things you didn't expect.
Yi Lan snorted angrily and glanced at him: "Almost all the rabbits raised by the guard group are adults, very lively, and they like to chase them to play, so they can't even rest now." ”
Xuan Yu shook his head with a smile, and took a piece of spinach and sent it to her bowl: "I asked people to check, more than two-thirds of the people in the South China Sea are older than you, and none of the escorts are younger than you, and you really don't have to take the daily trivial things to heart." ”
Although she was still angry, she didn't dare not eat the dishes he caught, so she hurriedly put them in her mouth, and then put down her chopsticks to support her chin, and said depressedly: "In the future, this will no longer be 'Nanhai Villa', but will directly become 'Rabbit Villa'." ”
Xuan Yu was stunned, glanced at her meaningfully, and opened his lips slightly: "...... It's a good fit. "You.
Yi Lan's unhappiness broke out in an instant, and he wrung his eyebrows and said: "What will the leader think when he comes over next month and sees the rabbits running in Manzhuang, isn't it okay to find trouble for me." ”
He had always been good-tempered, but for some reason, as soon as he heard this man from her mouth, he pulled down his face in displeasure.
Obviously, she personally admitted that she had no love for Yi Fenghuan, but he didn't know Yi Fenghuan's thoughts, so he could only keep holding the luck psychology of "If you really like it, you must see it every day, how can you throw her to the South China Sea, it will be two years if you lose her", and "prayed" that the two of them had nothing to do with each other except their superiors and subordinates.
But she didn't notice anything wrong at all, and her mouth was still the leader of the chief, until she felt the cold, she shivered, and cautiously looked up at the other side.
As soon as she saw his face, she immediately panicked, and he immediately said, "You care so much about Yi Fenghuan's opinion." ”
As soon as she opened her mouth, she knew that he was forcibly misunderstanding something, and she couldn't help but helpless, knowing that she must not go against him and say that she should immediately deny Sanlian at this moment, but she still couldn't help but argue: "It's not what you think, why do you always think about it, the leader occasionally goes to the four branches for routine inspections, although this time in the South China Sea is not an inspection, but others are still here, if I see that my children here are raising rabbits, I should be hung up and beaten." ”
Xuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes were still a little dangerous, and he pursed his lips and asked, "Your ups and downs are punishments, is to hang people up and beat them?" ”
"......" Yi Lan sighed in his heart, lowered his head and said sullenly, "I'm just giving you a random example, if the person in charge is incompetent, just suffer a little flesh and blood, close it in the dungeon, and then take the blame and resign." ”
But the children all swore to her that they would never delay their work and rest time and energy because of the rabbit, they were really weekdays, and the repetitive life was even more boring, and she really didn't want to take away their love.
What's more, if all so many rabbits are confiscated, where can they be placed? They are all domestic rabbits, and it would be too sad to throw them into the woods and leave them to fend for themselves.
As long as she finds out that they are not mentally right, as long as she finds one, hum, don't raise it, do what she says.
Fortunately, Xuan Yu mostly found out with her conscience, and felt that she was unreasonable, so she didn't embarrass her anymore.
The second half of the meal between the two went relatively smoothly, and when Yi Lan stood up and put away the dishes and chopsticks, he looked up and saw that it was already two minutes since Shen Zheng was outside.
Packed up the dishes, chopsticks and teacups back to the East Kitchen, and on the way back, Yilan kept silently cheering in his heart. Today another day has been wasted, even if she moves in with the devil and sleeps in the same bed, she must return to the normal state of "deputy leader" tomorrow.
As a result, as soon as I entered the yard, I saw an uninvited guest.
Yi Lan lowered his eyes and found that it was the cat that had been regarded as a little ancestor by the entire South China Sea before this morning. The whole body is light gray, painted with dark black stripes, and the claws are snow-white, which is called a dumpling, but it is actually a normal body shape, and the face is indeed exquisite, which makes people feel good just by looking at it.
It's just that Tuanzi's favorite place to stay is the entrance of the villa, far away from everyone, so he can find Yilian by car for the first time, and then ......
She really didn't know where Yi Lian attracted it, and the difference between before and after was too big no matter what. The only thing she can think of is internal force, Yi Lian's internal force is extremely deep, and she can use it freely, so it is the power hidden in her body to attract...... Dumplings?
Then this cat is a little powerful.
It's a pity that Yilian is not a cat sucker, so he just dropped it and left, and then it returned to the villa, um...... Just like the scene she saw all the way over, almost everyone had a rabbit in her hand, hugging, kissing and rubbing the ground so unhappy, she didn't even glance at it, so this kitten, which is in the spotlight on weekdays, is injured.
At this time, Tuanzi was sitting on the ground, leaving her a silhouette, she followed the little guy's gaze, only to find that it was staring at Xuan with big eyes at this time.
Speaking of which, if Tuanzi really only gets close to martial artists with extremely strong internal strength, Xuan Yu should also be pounced on like Yi Lian. He had probably let out some of his internal force now, but Tuanzi could still feel his unfathomable depth, and he didn't dare to step forward easily, so he watched with his eyes open.
Xuan Yu was leaning in front of the privet tree in the courtyard, holding his arms and quietly looking at the group, not happy or angry, until she approached him, he turned his head and smiled at her.
When she walked up to him, Danko looked at her as well. Obviously, the cat has no expression, but this glance makes her heart broken, just like a group of big men kneeling in front of her with tears in their eyes and begging her not to accept their rabbits, she can't bear such a look, and almost slips.
Xuan Yu raised his hand and grabbed her arm steadily, and couldn't help frowning, and then looked at the cat's eyes that had already set off some waves.
Yi Lan exhaled, patted his hand and said, "It's okay", and looked back at the ball that was only staring at her now.
Although the temper is a bit big, and it is also very unconscionable, but it has been held for a long time, and now it has fallen to the ground all of a sudden, and it is very difficult to accept that all the people who have spoiled it turn their heads and give their love to another creature, and they don't even look at it.
Although it is self-inflicted, according to Xuan's words, it is not worthy of sympathy.
But in the end, it's just a cat, and there is no need to be so harsh if you can understand any big truths.
"Alas, it's pitiful." Especially when she couldn't look down on the little pitiful, it was as uncomfortable as if she was the one who suffered all this, and she couldn't bear it, so she squatted down and opened her arms to it, "Come, come here." ”
She clearly saw that the ball had already stepped forward with a paw, but for some reason she raised her eyes to look in her upper right direction and stopped in place.
Yi Lan turned around, raised his head with a frown, and also looked at Xuan.
Xuan Yu also looked at her, the smile between her eyebrows seemed a little fake, and seeing that her expression seemed to be quite dissatisfied, he asked her softly, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's just a cat, no match for you." She still decided to please and said, "After I hugged it, I will definitely bathe my body before going to bed, and I won't let you hold it and get cat hair on it, and I won't let you smell it...... Cat's breath. ”
Evil, she didn't feel that she should be hugged by him from the bottom of her heart, but just to admit it in order to achieve her goal.
Sure enough, he was a little stunned for a moment.
She was so good, how could he think she wasn't smart enough before.
Xuan Yu smiled contentedly, slowly turned his gaze back to the group, and actually made it start, and took two steps back, looking at him with a very wary and somewhat fearful gaze.
Then he said nonsense without blushing: "I didn't threaten it anything, and I didn't say anything about not letting it hug you, because it didn't have the courage to come over, how can you blame me." ”
