Chapter 25: Incongruous Pictures
"Brother Zhou, then we will also bother, I hope you will bear with me." Song Xiaomian also learned from Shen Luofan's appearance, and after standing up, he made a gesture towards Zhou Bin.
"Where is it, you are Brother Shen's friends, naturally you are my friends, just be comfortable here, don't be polite to me, this is my housekeeper, Uncle Zhou, if you have something to tell him to do, I may have to leave tomorrow morning, but I won't be with you for long." Zhou Bin still wanted to tell them about the matter, so that they wouldn't know.
"Brother Zhou, just go."
Song Xiaomian thought, as soon as Zhou Bin leaves, isn't this the same as in the Shen family?
It's just that there is one more Uncle Zhou who helps with the work, and it is estimated that she doesn't need to do so much work.
She thought wrongly, she hadn't settled down yet, so she heard Shen Luofan say: "Song Xiaomian, you two go to the kitchen to cook, don't think you can be lazy here, if you make me unhappy, let Brother Zhou sweep you out of the house too!" β
"Brother Shen, there is Uncle Zhou in the kitchen, you are a guest, how can I let you help?" Zhou Bin sneered, but he didn't dare to refute Shen Luofan's intention directly.
"Brother Zhou, the two of them usually do kitchen work at home, you can't be lazy when you arrive, otherwise you won't be lazy to go out of the sky when you go back in the future, let them go, let's go to the yard and talk."
Shen Luofan deliberately separated from them.
Song Xiaomian grimaced at Shen Luofan's back, and after they walked out, she raised her foot and kicked off the chair she had just sat on.
Song Cuiling was startled, and quickly bent down to move the chair, she saw that there was no one around, and then she whispered: "Sister, you are crazy, this is not in our house, this is the Zhou Mansion, if the things here are damaged, how can Brother Shen explain to others?" β
"If it's bad, it's bad, if it's broken, can't I fix it, let's go, go to the kitchen."
Song Xiaomian was very depressed, she thought she could be lazy here, but she still had to be called like a girl, it had only been two or three days, why was she so sad, and she didn't have a good life?
Running around all day, she was about to doubt her life.
Shen Luofan and Zhou Bin walked in the courtyard, and when Zhou Bin was waiting for no one, he immediately knelt down towards Shen Luofan: "Master, the villain should die, just now he was commensurate with his brother, I hope that the master will forgive his sins." β
"You reacted well, much better than before, I don't blame you for this, it happened suddenly, if it weren't for the officials on the street outside who were rampant and domineering, I wouldn't have led them here, you don't actually need to travel far, just go out early and return late, and listen to the news outside." Shen Luofan helped him up, and Zhou Bin was the man in black that day.
He is also his only informant in the county and his right-hand man.
If it weren't for Zhou Bin back then, he would have died in the rapids.
Therefore, he also regarded Zhou Bin as his brother for a long time.
The mansion here was bought in the name of Zhou Bin, and he occasionally came here to live, but in order to hide people's eyes, he almost never came, and Zhou Bin and his father have always lived here.
Uncle Zhou is Zhou Bin's father, the father and son swore loyalty to him, and it was because of him that Zhou Bin never married, delaying his lifelong event.
"Master, they? Are they the Song sisters? Zhou Bin can be regarded as comprehending, when he just watched it, he still felt weird, he was most afraid of trouble on weekdays, but now he took the initiative to tie these two people to his side.
It's weird, has the master changed? Or are the two sisters pestering their master?
"Hmm." Shen Luofan saw that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he said the two sisters in a few words: "I don't want Song Yingjie to be wrong again and again, these two sisters are wronged, so I saved their lives, and you have to protect them both in the future." β
"Yes, as long as it is something that the master orders, his subordinates never dare to slack off." Zhou Bin immediately agreed, but the two sisters are now disguised as little old men, which is really funny.
Although Shen Luofan said this, it was just telling Zhou Bin that he himself should do what he should do.
Song Xiaomian and Zhou Bo, about half an hour later, finished the meal, brought it to the small room outside the kitchen, and after putting it on the table, she served the meal again, and thought about calling Shen Luofan to eat, otherwise the hateful man would have to play tricks on himself again for a while.
Song Cuiling ran out first, she was in the distance, watching Shen Luofan and Zhou Bin walking very close, one of them was very serious, and the other hung his head in the back, as if listening to teachings.
She couldn't help but think, aren't they good brothers, how can there be such an incongruous picture?
Shen Luofan noticed that someone was looking at them, he suddenly glanced over, and when he found that it was Song Cuiling, his eyes returned to an indifferent expression.
"Brother Shen, Brother Zhou, the meal is ready, it's time to eat." Song Cuiling shouted sweetly at them, she felt very comfortable here, the yard was very clean and big, even the house was better than any one in Songjia Village, and the Song family was not as good as here.
How nice it would be if you could stay here forever? Then you don't have to live a lost life again.
Then, her eyes fell on Zhou Bin's body, although he looked rough, but he was many times stronger than those mountain village wild men in Songjia Village, at least he had his own mansion in the county seat, so he didn't have to be looked down upon.
Shen Luofan looked at Song Cuiling's young age, but the city government was very deep, if this little ghost didn't learn well, he was afraid that he would go astray in the future.
He had to remind Song Xiaomian so that her precious sister wouldn't make her feel bad in the future.
No, that's the two sisters' business, what does it have to do with him? Is he full of food and has nothing to do?
Facing Song Xiaomian's fierce temperament that refused to admit defeat, he felt that he should let her taste more hardships before she could get rid of her anger.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Zhou Bin changed back to the role of the master, and returned to Song Cuiling with a smile.
He smiled very shy and uncomfortable, but Song Cuiling looked stupid, and then blushed, thinking, Brother Zhou is smiling at me.
When Song Xiaomian saw them walking back, she took the initiative to stand up, and only after they sat down did she sit down with them.
Today's meal is more casual, it is two greens and a fried egg.
Compared to the soup that she couldn't eat and drink at Song's house, it was much better, and she felt that there was nothing to pick.
Uncle Zhou was angry on the side, he didn't sit together, in front of the master, he has always known the measure, the son's swollen face is full of faΓ§ade, and he is also cheeky and trembling to sit with the master, he saw that his hands were shaking so badly that the bowl was about to fall down several times.
"Uncle Zhou, you can also sit down and eat together." Song Xiaomian felt that Uncle Zhou was left alone without eating, and he was very unhappy, his old man took care of this house alone on weekdays, but he was afraid that it would not be easy.
Zhou Bo shook his head again and again, "You eat, I am a subordinate, how can I sit with the masters, I will go outside first." β
"Uncle Zhou, sit down and eat together." Shen Luofan opened his mouth.
Uncle Zhou's back stiffened, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, but he said excitedly: "Thank you, the little one should go outside and look at the door, and then come in after you finish eating." β
Song Xiaomian really couldn't see it, she stood up, walked towards Uncle Zhou, and dragged him back, Uncle Zhou actually knew how to work, if he used some strength, he could get rid of Song Xiaomian, but he found that he was secretly using force, and it was not as good as Song Xiaomian, he immediately became vigilant, thinking that Song Xiaomian was a bad guy lurking beside the master, and he had more eyes.
"Uncle Zhou, we are guests, and you are a member of Brother Zhou's family, and you should also be the host, you have been busy for so long, what's wrong with sitting down to have a meal together? Brother Zhou, can you say something, let Uncle Zhou sit down and eat together? β
Zhou Bin hesitated, just now the master said that he wanted his father to sit down and eat, if he didn't speak, he was afraid that his father would not dare.
He had no choice but to sneer and say, "Uncle Zhou, you can sit down and eat together." β
Uncle Zhou is still there, sitting at the same table with his master, it is not in accordance with the rules, if the top people know, I am afraid that their father and son will not be protected.
But now that the mountains and rivers are far away, how will they know? Moreover, if you disobey the will of the master and anger the lord now, it is even more a crime that deserves death.
"Uncle Zhou, eat together, you should get used to it, could it be that when you and Brother Zhou are alone, your meals have to be cooked separately? That's a lot of trouble. Song Xiaomian said with a smile, the beard on her face trembled, making her itch, wanting to tear it open, and she was afraid of scaring Brother Zhou and Uncle Zhou, thinking about putting up with it, and when she finished eating and went to the room, she had to immediately remove her disguise, which was really sticky and uncomfortable!
They are father and son, of course, they usually eat together, but now they can't pull the hind legs of the master. Seeing this, Zhou Bin hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhou, sit down and eat together, Brother Shen is here, don't let him laugh." β
"Yes......"
After Zhou Bo answered, he sat next to Song Xiaomian, carefully picking up the rice in the bowl, but did not hold the vegetables.
Song Xiaomian picked up his chopsticks and prepared to pick up the dishes, but Shen Luofan said: "Song Xiaomian, chopsticks." β
The black line on her face, he just deliberately wanted to fix her, right, no one else asks to use chopsticks, just her here he has to clamp her everywhere.
Song Cuiling looked at her sister puzzled, she felt that her sister shouldn't be troublesome, and Uncle Zhou would be able to eat by herself for a while, so she had to drag others to eat together, which made everyone embarrassed.
Song Xiaomian stood up, went back to the kitchen and took out a pair of chopsticks, returned to the seat, and directly took the eggs into Uncle Zhou's bowl.
Uncle Zhou was flattered, and his old face turned pale with fright.
"Sister, you eat yours, what are you doing so much?" Song Cuiling really couldn't stand it, so she approached Song Xiaomian's side and whispered next to her.
Song Xiaomian glared at her and didn't speak, Cui Ling didn't understand her thoughts, so naturally she couldn't go together.
After she hurriedly ate her fill, she went out, thinking that before it was dark, she would take a good look at the scenery of the Zhou Mansion, and some flowers and plants in this courtyard caught her attention.
