Chapter Forty-Nine: Night to the Green Bamboo House
Chu Jingyan returned to Qingzhuju this time, and he didn't even know that he had entered the door. Now the entire Chu Mansion and the people who have news outside still think that Chu Jingyan is still locked up in the firewood room.
Peach Blossom didn't know that Chu Jingyan was rescued from the firewood room by the six girls of her family, and today she saw her painting here to provoke distress and pity makeup, and thought that it was painted for the old lady to see, in order to win sympathy, and begged the old lady to let go.
This is an ignorant approach, and Peach Blossom is worried that she will scare the old lady into illness, which is a great sin.
Good thing it's not.
"Why should I lie to my grandmother?" Chu Jiayin happily admired his handwriting, the more he looked at his makeup, the more satisfied he became, he didn't know that his makeup was so scary, and he was afraid that it was only a little better than the dying person.
Peach Blossom wanted to speak and stopped, but after enduring it, she still said: "For the second son." I see that you have been sticking to him every day these days, and you almost made a promise. Knowing that the second son was locked up by the old lady, he couldn't move when he was sick, so he ran off the ground so that he could get off the ground! β
"Tell me, how much of your mind has been fascinated by him? I see you, it's not impossible to sell miserably in front of the old lady for the sake of the second son. β
"I ...... I was fascinated by him. "She is just worried about the future situation of the Chu family, and wants to find a backer as soon as possible, so as to save herself from being gnawed by those pickled gangsters in the future! At that time, everyone will know how prescient Chu Jiayin, who hugged the thigh of the second brother at the beginning!
"I obviously don't want to wronged good people, you say, the two of them stabbing the villain, does it look reliable?" Chu Jiayin asked.
Peach Blossom shook her head.
She is not familiar with Chu Jingyan, when she sees Chu Jingyan on weekdays, she doesn't take a detour and walks up to greet people, Chu Jingyan also ignores it and only agrees, very indifferent. Finally, Chu Jiayin got close to him, and Peach Blossom, as the one who served by Chu Jiayin's side, still couldn't get much closer to this cold second son.
Chu Jingyan is vague in Peach Blossom's understanding, what will he do, Peach Blossom is really not sure.
"Shouldn't you think that the second brother should be a decent gentleman?" Chu Jiayin asked again.
Mahogany could only smile and replied ambiguously: "It should be." β
It's the sixth girl who thinks it herself.
But as long as the sixth girl thinks about herself, she doesn't want others to think about it, and others think that what she thinks is right! Whew - it's so domineering and arrogant, unreasonable!
"What do you mean by should, Peach Blossom, do you have any preconceptions about the second brother? I'm telling you, that's not right. Before suspecting a person of doing bad things, you must understand this person before you can do it, otherwise you will harm him for the rest of your life if you suspect him indiscriminately. Do you know how much other people's stereotypes affect a person? β
"Uh-huh." Peach Blossom nodded perfunctorily, when did the six girls become so verbose? Big head!
The sixth girl was finally satisfied, put away the fat powder, and climbed into bed.
With the quilt covered, she showed her head and said to Peach Blossom, "Let the doctor take two more turns outside the house in a while before leaving!" You remember to drop him off at the gate, and then you have to run into the person your grandmother called, and then ask the person to take the doctor home. Remember, 1 Don't let Chu Yun stop people on the road. β
"Huh? Old lady people? When did you tell the old lady about this, or did you tell the old lady yourself? No, I have to tell the old lady. "Peach Blossom is suspicious, maybe she is used to being loyal, and she has always kept the old lady's prejudice against Chu Jingyan in mind, for fear that something will go wrong if Chu Jiayin is disobedient.
Chu Jiayin closed her eyes and said helplessly: "Grandmother knows about this, you don't have to bother her old man." Just do what I say, understand? β
"But didn't the doctor already give you the last medicine? Wouldn't it be nice if you finished eating? Do you feel sick again? Peach Blossom looked anxious.
Chu Jiayin really convinced her, but she was all for her own good, forgive her.
"I'm fine, I have an important plan to execute, you just listen to me! Eh, don't ask again. Get on the errand! β
After Peach Blossom left, Chu Jiayin finally breathed a sigh of relief. The nagging and suspicious peach blossom is even more difficult than her grandmother!
Chu Jiayin also bought the doctor, and with great effort, the soft grinding and hard bubble finally succeeded. This doctor is also a strange doctor, easy to say, what medical ethics must be adhered to, and no matter how much persuasion and abduction, he will not help.
In the end, if it weren't for Chu Jiayin's tears, this matter probably wouldn't have been possible.
However, thanks to the doctor's honesty, he actually told Chu Yun what he came to "care about". Otherwise, she wouldn't have thought of this plan. The one that I discussed with Chu Jingyan before is indeed a little useful, but if I don't cooperate with this strategy now, it seems that it is almost hot!
Around the third watch, the major courtyards of Chu Mansion were almost quiet, and only the lanterns hanging on the eaves were lit and faintly lit. When the wind blows, it's almost gone.
Chu Jiayin took advantage of the peach blossoms in the side room to fall asleep, quietly pushed open the door, and with a "squeak" fall, the small figure drilled out of the bedroom of the main pavilion.
Peach Blossom woke up, snorted, didn't realize anything was wrong for a while, and fell asleep again.
Chu Jiayin was taken aback, but fortunately, Peach Blossom didn't catch up later, so she closed the crack in the door with confidence and went to hold something.
The moon is like a silver platter, and the sky is exceptionally clear tonight.
Chu Jiayin carried a paper lantern, walked through several paths, and finally arrived at Qingzhuju.
She brought a blanket to her second brother, I don't know what animal fur was made of, but it was very warm. Qingzhuju is too deserted and simple, and the second brother has not returned for several months, and he doesn't know what it will be like to be poor.
Qingzhuju is still the oldest courtyard in this mansion, and the prosperity of Chu Mansion has to start with it. It's just that the older generation only remembers that their parents said that they should not cut the bamboo inside, it will damage their good luck, and the younger generations only remember not to cut the bamboo.
Because the bamboo cannot be cut, the house yard tile is difficult to renovate, and after several generations of prosperity, Qingzhuju has gradually become the most remote corner of Chu Mansion. Now it's also a place for personal jokes.
The calligraphy and pen of the early millennium are all related to bamboo, this bamboo forest where green bamboo and Weirui grow, is a frequent visitor to the poet's pen, and the lack of literary luck of the Chu family may be related to their poor treatment of this bamboo forest. Of course, the theory of ghosts and gods can only be said as a joke in the past, and what Qingzhu can become a talent for reading can only be seen as a joke.
Chu Jiayin entered the courtyard and took a good look at the green bamboo residence for the first time.
The materials used to build the house are a few years old, crumbling, and they will fall down at any time, which is dangerous.
She suddenly felt that it was not a knowing decision to let her second brother move back to Qingzhuju. But now, she can't find any other place to live for Chu Jingyan.
The second brother won't think she's deliberately playing tricks on people, right?
With an uneasy mood, Chu Jiayin walked to the door.
The candlelight in the room has not been extinguished, and Chu Jingyan is still reading at night, working hard. Those who talk about the second brother all day long, but treat him as a natural reading material, and they can't compare with themselves, and they don't know if they are also so hardworking.
If not, why did they say that Chu Jingyan had talent without putting in any effort?
"Knock knock!" Chu Jiayin knocked on the door.
Chu Jingyan looked at the door, the short figure, the shadow fell on the door, and it was not as tall as half the door!
Chu Jiayin thought that the voice was too small to alarm, so she stood on tiptoe and raised her head, trying to check something. She was so big that she couldn't even touch the papier-mΓ’chΓ© on the door. Not to mention seeing what's inside.
Chu Jingyan was inside, and he could only see Chu Jiayin's half head shaking at the door, and suddenly disappeared again. It is estimated that he is tired from tiptoeing, so he can only tiptoe for a while and land for a while.
"Second brother?" Chu Jiayin shouted, "Have you slept?" β
Chu Jingyan put down the book and went to open the door for her.
Chu Chu Jiayin was leaning against the door to listen to the movement inside, and just heard the sound of turning a book, and made sure that Chu Jingyan was not asleep, and was about to shout again. But because the door where he was lying suddenly opened, he fell forward sharply.
Chu Jingyan hurriedly reached out to pick her up, making her fall into her arms without falling to the ground.
"What are you doing here so late?"
"I'll bring you a blanket." Chu Jiayin came out of his arms and held the things in his hand high for him to see.
Chu Jingyan lowered his eyes and glanced at the bed, and said, "I have a quilt here." β
"That's different, how can your futon be as warm as this blanket." Chu Jiayin slipped past Chu Jingyan's side as he spoke, and without the owner's consent, he wandered around in someone else's house.
After entering the house and seeing the shabby futon on the bed, Chu Jiayin turned back to the second brother and said, "Second brother, look at it, where is your futon ......?"
Halfway through the words, Chu Jiayin felt that it was inappropriate and hurriedly shut up. If you say something unpleasant, the second brother has been living here before entering the Linglong Pavilion, these unpleasant things, don't they chill the second brother's heart for fifteen years?
"I'm here for your own good, anyway." Chu Jiayin couldn't help but hold the blanket, went over to the bedside, and clumsily helped Chu Jingyan to shop.
Chu Jingyan couldn't stand it anymore standing on the side, so he also walked to the bedside, took the blanket in Chu Jiayin's hand, and spread it himself. Compared with Chu Jiayin's clumsiness, his movements are much sharper.
Chu Jiayin realized the stupidity of his hands and feet, and stuck out his tongue at Chu Jingyan's back in embarrassment.
Isn't it just to make the bed, and she will be able to do it next time!
"Thank you." Chu Jingyan said.
"Hmm...... You're welcome. Chu Jiayin waved his hand, frowned again after a while, and remembered something.
Since Chu Jingyan's relationship with herself eased, it seems that she has never been called by any title. is not called Miss Six like before, nor is it called Yinyin like grandmother and Sister Jane, and it is not called Sixth Sister like other brothers.
It's always you who come and go.
"What should the second brother call me?"
