Chapter 126: Small Talk
"You look so ugly." Nangong Che pinched her chin and moved her face to the left and then to the right.
His behavior really challenged Bai Shuqin's temper, she didn't expect him to comfort her, but she didn't expect him to laugh at her at this time. Her face became more and more cold, "I'm happy to be ugly, what does it have to do with you." ”
Seeing her sad but pretending to be like this, Nangong Che suddenly felt a little distressed, at this moment he just wanted to hug her into his arms, and he did it.
The surroundings suddenly quieted down, Nangong Che's arms were firm and warm, and he protected her tightly in his arms like this. Bai Shuqin's ears were close to his chest, and the thumping of her heartbeat made her hallucinate in a trance, as if she was being protected by him.
The breeze blew the yellow sand like a dancing yellow gauze skirt, but time in the carriage seemed to stand still.
The warm embrace made people indulge, and Bai Shuqin gradually closed his eyes. Her heart was tired, and even if this haven was temporary, she still wanted to stop and rest for a while.
Nangong Che knew what he was doing, and he knew even more about what he wanted. He looked down at Bai Shuqin, who was already asleep in his arms, and a smile appeared on his face.
When he saw Bai Shuqin for the first time, Nangong Che was surprised, she was just a thin woman, she was able to occupy the position of the third imperial concubine, and chased her to the Dark Night Pavilion.
In the later contact, he felt that Bai Shuqin was different. There is a stubborn spirit in her body, and the most special thing is that he sees freedom in her.
That night, he knew that he was taking advantage of others, but he did not regret it. From then on, he knew that this was the person he wanted.
When Bai Shuqin woke up, he was still hugged by Nangong Che. By this time she had become much more sober, and immediately left his arms, complaining in her heart about how she had done this in a foolish manner.
"Okay?" Nangong Che asked suddenly, his face cold as if nothing had happened.
He made Bai Shuqin's mind a little confused like this, she ignored him, and silently analyzed why she would allow such a thing to happen.
The relationship between the two is very clear, that is, the relationship between superiors and subordinates, and between use and being used. This kind of relationship shows that the two should not be overly intimate, and other feelings should not exist.
Bai Shuqin asked herself, she did have an appreciation for Nangong Che, and felt that he had the ability to be a reliable leader, but the relationship between men and women was impossible.
What's more, she never looked at him with the eyes of the opposite sex.
But what kind of feelings does Nangong Che have for her? She knows that she is not the type he likes, after all, her body is not plump and her personality is not gentle. Chu Qiao's kind is the type that Nangong Che likes.
However, the man probably thought in his heart that the red flag at home would not fall, and the colorful flags would flutter outside. One more woman, even if it's not exactly what they like, is as easy for them as changing to a dish.
Thinking about it like this, Bai Shuqin felt that Nangong Che was undoubtedly a scumbag.
She hasn't completely jumped out of the pit of Zhuo Jinxuan, how can she never fall into another pit again, and it is such an obvious pit.
After Bai Shuqin figured it out, her heart suddenly became a lot clearer, she narrowed her eyebrows and said, "Just counted me as rude, it's better not to happen this kind of thing, what do you think?" ”
"It's best if you don't lose your soul!" Nangong Che's face was full of indifference, and he didn't seem to take this matter to heart.
This feeling seemed to be Bai Shuqin's self-inflicted affection, and she suffered a loss. She turned her face away and snorted, "Put away your overflowing sympathy!" ”
There was not much time, and Nangong Che ordered to hurry at night, striving to enter the capital of Zhou State in three days.
On the way, Bai Shuqin didn't say a word, and Nangong Che also ignored her, and the two were silent like this.
The stars fill the sky, but they don't illuminate the dark world.
The pain of losing her child, Bai Shuqin still can't let go, she forced herself not to think about it. But as soon as people are quiet, their minds begin to lose control.
Bai Shuqin lay on the window of the carriage, and his thoughts drifted back to the distant capital.
The child is gone, how sad is Zhuo Jinxuan? If he can't find her, will he be in a hurry? After receiving the letter of resignation, he should be furious, right?
She suddenly regretted that she shouldn't have impulsively written the letter of resignation. She shouldn't have avoided Zhuo Jinxuan, so at least she could ask him face-to-face what he thought.
But now, the two are far away, and even if she wants to see him, it is impossible.
Perhaps, Zhuo Jinxuan is now talking to Bai Bing Qingqing. Thinking of this, Bai Shuqin only felt a pain in his heart, and his anger was about to be irrepressible.
She lost her child and fulfilled their double stay and double flight, such a virgin thing, Bai Shuqin couldn't do it.
Nangong Che secretly observed the changes in Bai Shuqin's expression, and he could guess the reason, but this reason also made a wave of anger rise in his heart.
Bai Shuqin looked up and saw Nangong Che's cold face, and said unhappily: "You don't look good in the first place, and you still have a straight face, who dares to marry you." ”
This is in response to Nangong Che's words last time, she is a person who holds grudges, and of course she must return it as it is when she finds an opportunity.
"What did you say?" Nangong Che's face darkened again.
Bai Shuqin knew that he still had use value, so he had no fear and directly ignored his face, "You have bad ears?" Then I'll repeat it again, you listen! You look so ugly, your face is so stinky, you can't please a daughter-in-law! ”
Nangong Che leaned his face closer to Bai Shuqin, and said word by word: "You look at me, say it again!" ”
Bai Shuqin felt Nangong Che's anger, and she felt a little weak. Nangong Che's appearance is even more exquisite than Zhuo Jinxuan, even compared to Zhuo Linfeng, it is not much worse, like a perfect sculpture. Although he hadn't measured it, Bai Shuqin felt that he should be completely in line with the golden ratio.
His tall nose, deep eyes, and even his eyelashes are about the same length as Bai Shuqin's, as if he came out of a comic.
Saying that he was ugly, Bai Shuqin simply opened his eyes and said nonsense, wanting to be angry with him. Seeing that he cared so much at this moment, she didn't dare to challenge his bottom line, so she only smiled and changed her words, "I said that you are dignified and magnificent, it is really rare to see in a hundred years!" ”
Nangong Che retracted his body, and the expression on his face eased a lot, "Your eyes are not completely blind. ”
Bai Shuqin could have seen Nangong Che's narcissistic side, but after making such a fuss, the atmosphere between the two finally relaxed.
Zuiyun Restaurant has a good reputation in the capital, and Du Zijun just went in and looked at the menu, and was scared out by the expensive price. A plate of ordinary fried vegetables costs fifty yuan, which is grabbing.
But even so, there is still an endless stream of people who come to send money.
Du Zijun stood at the door and looked at the restaurant in the city, and couldn't help but wonder if he was the only one in this world who was so poor, although he had already saved eight hundred taels of silver.
He wanted to be a servant in Zuiyun Restaurant, so that he could find out the news, but the notice posted at the door only recruited kitchen helpers.
The back kitchen is the back kitchen, Du Zijun comforted himself, this kitchen helper is better than the last night, at least the smell is fragrant.
Du Zijun was bold again, stepped into the Zuiyun Restaurant, and found the shopkeeper with a shy smile, he pointed to himself, "I saw the notice posted at your door recruiting kitchen helpers, do you think I can succeed?" ”
The kitchen helper was a low-level job, and the shopkeeper saw that he was tall, neatly dressed, and his face was handsome, so he didn't think about it, so he pointed to a guy next to him and said, "Go with him!" ”
Du Zijun followed the guy to the back kitchen, and without even introducing him, he was stuffed with an apron and handed him a kitchen knife, "Cut this meat." ”
The kitchen was busy, the iron pot was stir-frying on the burning stove, and the aroma of the dishes mixed with the smell of oil smoke rushed to Du Zijun's brain.
He has hardly been in the kitchen since he was born, and suddenly giving him a kitchen knife makes him a little confused.
Fortunately, Du Zijun was born with a cleverness, and after seeing how others cut it, he followed it and learned it in a good way. He had just finished cutting the vegetables and was called to make a fire, and he was very busy.
It wasn't until lunchtime had passed that the kitchen was finally free. Some people are washing pots, some people are wiping the desk, and some people are putting away the unused materials, and everything is going on in an orderly manner.
The kitchen was as hot as the desert, and his clothes were soaking wet after all these busy days. His sleeves were rolled up high, and he sat down with the cooks in a shady place in the yard.
The cook took out the herbal tea that had been dried in the morning, scooped up the tea with a long round spoon and poured it into the bowl, and served it to the cooks who were busy all day.
Naturally, a kitchen worker like Du Zijun does not have such a good treatment, so he can only make tea by himself.
After drinking a large bowl of tea, the breeze blew, and Du Zijun felt that he had finally come to life. Although he didn't think the cooks would know anything, he didn't have anything to do at the moment, so he chatted with them.
He found a chubby cook, with a round face and small eyes like a slit. Because the fat cook is fat, people don't want to get too close to him, and he is afraid of the heat. Du Zijun squeezed to his side and talked to him enthusiastically, "Big brother, how long have you been here?" ”
"I've been here since I opened! There's nothing in this longer than I've been in! The fat man's face was full of pride, as if he were the patriarch here.
Although the fat man stayed for a long time, his status was obviously not so high, as he could see from Du Zijun, who had just sent water to the cook.
Du Zijun showed a look of admiration and complimented: "Big brother is big brother, and at first glance he is an ordinary person." I look here, it's because there are people like my eldest brother that business is so hot! ”
"I don't dare to take this seriously, it's those guests who love to order my fried dishes." The fat man's smiling eyes were almost out of sight.
Seeing that the sycophant was right, Du Zijun obviously glanced at another cook in the distance, and whispered to the fat man, "I heard that someone ate our dishes here a while ago, and they will get sick when they go back." That dish, it's definitely not your big brother's cooking. ”
"Definitely not! I've been cooking for most of my life, and no one has ever had a bad stomach! "The fat man is sure that he is still quite confident in his cooking skills.
Du Zijun felt that he was probably confused, he had also seen the state of the kitchen, and there were countless pairs of eyes watching the dishes from the side of the pot, and this situation was poisoned, unless all of them were bought.
Even if you buy it all, there are no people with big mouths here who dare to take this risk.
However, the fat man thought about it, lowered his head and said mysteriously to Du Zijun: "But let me tell you, one night I saw Sun Changsheng doing things to salt. ”
Du Zijun became interested and asked curiously: "Such a lack of morality, dare to steal the salt in the kitchen!" ”
"It's not!" The fat man shook his head, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to them, he put his hand on Du Zijun's shoulder, "I saw him pouring something into the salt shaker, and I caught him." It's a pity that he doesn't believe it! It's not that I'm jealous of him, I'm jealous of him! He's just a second uncle, and the master is a petty official, so I can't look down on him! ”
