Chapter Seventy-Eight: How to Comfort the Wind and Dust (II)
Gusu, Yaowangzong
When Ji Chen rushed back to Gusu, he found that Huo Qingxin had not returned, and Wen Xun was with her.
Thinking that the two of them were together at the moment, Ji Chen was very unhappy in his heart.
And Su Jianxiang, who came back first, lived in the courtyard of the apse of the Shenwu Hall before.
In this way, it is also convenient for her to take care of Wen Zhe, who is still recuperating from her injuries.
Originally, she had been hesitating whether to go back to Yangzhou or come to Gusu.
In the end, she chose to come to Gusu, and she was always relieved of Wen Zhe.
As soon as she returned to the Medicine King Sect, she took over all the things in Wen Zhe's daily life.
Boiling medicine, cooking, and even Wen Zhe's change of clothes.
Su Jianxiang took it all, just like a maid who served her closely, and did it herself.
This made Wen Zhe, who has always been free and comfortable, a little embarrassed.
After all, Su Jianxiang is a young lady, and taking care of him so carefully makes him really a little unhappy.
At this point, it's midday, and it's time for lunch.
I saw Su Jianxiang busy before and after, and brought the dishes he had made into Wen Zhe's room.
At the same time, she also has to take care of the decoction to be taken at noon.
When Wen Zhe came out of the inner room, he only saw a table already set, hot delicacies, and dishes and chopsticks.
At this time, Su Jianxiang was busy decocting the medicine again.
Faced with such hospitality, Wen Zhe decided to wait to see Su Jianxiang and must persuade her not to do these things again.
After a short time after he finished eating, Su Jianxiang entered the house with the boiled decoction.
As soon as she stepped into the room, she asked busily.
"How is today's meal, but it is still to taste."
"Very good, have you had lunch?"
With a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, he put the somewhat hot medicine bowl in his hand on the table and replied.
"I've already eaten in the kitchenette"
In fact, she hasn't eaten lunch yet, in the past few days, she has eaten in Wen Zhe, and after drinking the medicine, she will put away the dishes and chopsticks before she can eat a few bites of leftover food.
Gently pushing the medicine bowl in front of the man, he said.
"Drink it while it's hot, it's freshly boiled"
Wen Zhe's gaze kept falling lightly on Su Jianxiang's face.
At this time, Su Jianxiang was sitting beside him, and his face was probably stained with some black dirt because of cooking rice and medicine.
Su Jianxiang saw that he had been staring at him, his face was red with shame, and he asked heavily.
"You... What are you staring at me ... β
The man next to her didn't speak, just raised his hand and stroked her face.
This move couldn't help but make Su Jianxiang's heart pound even more nervous!
Wen Zhe just reached out and brushed away the ashes on her face, and when he saw that her face was red and hot, he realized that his game was a little overstepping.
Explained, "You have dirt on your face. β
After speaking, the man's hand was already down.
And Su Jianxiang hurriedly wiped her cheeks in a panic, and her heart was already beating out of rhythm.
He stammered, "I... I'm going to wash my face, you... You remember to drink the medicine. β
After saying that, he ran away a little desolately.
Wen Zhe looked at the back of the anxious departure, wondering if his actions just now were a little excessive.
After drinking a bowl of medicine, he planned to go to Su Jianxiang and say sorry to her.
After Su Jianxiang left the room, she returned to a small kitchen in the side hall of the Shenwu Palace.
Originally, she planned to go back to the small kitchen first, eat some food, and then go to Wen Zhe's place to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
But when she returned to the kitchen, she found that all the food she had left for herself earlier was gone.
And today is not the first time such a thing.
The same was true for yesterday's dinner, and she thought it was a diligent maid who had cleaned up her things.
But today, when she was delivering the medicine, she told the people in the small kitchen not to touch the lunch she left for herself.
I came back just like last night...
And this time, there are only two maids in the small kitchen who are cleaning up.
She couldn't help but step forward and ask, "What about the food I put on the table?" β
The two maids directly ignored the questions she asked, and completely ignored them.
This made Su Jianxiang faintly feel that the lunch she left behind suddenly disappeared, and it must be related to these two girls.
Perhaps, the dinner left over from last night was also done by them.
At this time, one of the maids, who was cleaning, muttered disdainfully.
"I really take myself seriously, and I don't look at what kind of place this is"
In the past few days, for everything Su Jianxiang has done, these maids who serve in the Shenwu Hall have a lot of complaints.
Some people don't blame Su Jianxiang's actions, and want to deliberately fix her in secret.
Another maid also followed suit and said, "That's it! If you are in such a hurry to perform, you must keep your duty! β
The voice was not loud, nor too small, they just deliberately said it to Su Jianxiang.
Su Jianxiang's face turned pale, and she probably knew in her heart why they did this.
Wen Zhe is the deputy sect master of the Medicine King Sect, and the woman who admires him can't be the only one!
Which of these maidservants who have served here all the year round is not waiting for a suitable opportunity.
But Wen Zhe, who doesn't care about the love between men and women, always turns a blind eye to these girls.
Now there is one who suddenly appears, taking the initiative in everything, and almost wants to live in their master's room and serve Su Jianxiang closely!
How could this not make them, who had been serving in the Divine Martial Palace, feel angry!
In their eyes, Su Jianxiang, like them, wanted to win Wen Zhe's favor, so she did it herself.
But for Wen Zhe, he had told them before that Su Jianxiang was an honored guest of the Medicine King Sect.
This has to make the servants a little jealous!
I only dare to do this, and secretly throw out her meals.
Su Jianxiang didn't get angry when she thought of this, everyone was the same age as each other, so why should she be embarrassed.
Thinking that she still had some pastries left over in the morning, she would take those pastries to satisfy her hunger.
But when she opened the cupboard, she found that the rest of the pastries were gone.
Obviously, they did all of this.
Su Jianxiang couldn't help but sigh secretly, it was really good to be bullied by others, and horses were good at being ridden.
It seems that in the Medicine King Sect in the future, she is afraid that there will be no peaceful days. γ
As she walked to the table in silence, intending to pour herself a cup of tea.
As soon as she picked up the water cup, before she could bring it to her mouth, the maid who suddenly rushed up to her side knocked the cup in her hand.
This move instantly made Su Jianxiang a little unhappy.
"What do you do!"
The maid said with a proud face, "If you take care of the deputy sect master so wholeheartedly, didn't the deputy sect master leave you to eat with you?" β
Su Jianxiang listened to these somewhat yin and yang strange words, and suppressed her anger.
"You're going too far!"
Even if it is because he admires Wen Zhe and is dissatisfied with her actions, he shouldn't make things difficult everywhere!
At this time, another maid also came over and laughed.
"Hehe, excessive? How dare we? The master said, you are a distinguished guest in our Medicine King Sect, how dare we snub our distinguished guests! β
Su Jianxiang looked at them fixedly, and shot back.
"Are you not afraid that I will tell your master about this?"
"Hahaha... If you want to sue, you go to sue, we are all old men serving in the Shenwu Palace, and we have been diligent and diligent, and we have kept our duties! The Deputy Sect Master won't believe your words! β
After finishing speaking, she had already gestured with her eyes, and a maid was standing on the other side.
The maid immediately came to her senses and walked in the opposite direction, directly to a water tank in the room.
With a scoop, he scooped a large spoonful of water and walked towards Su Jianxiang, who was carrying his back.
Then, while Su Jianxiang was not paying attention, he directly poured a spoonful of water from Su Jianxiang's head.
This will be completely unsuspecting, for a moment to hang in place.
The maid who watered from behind her, holding a scoop, proudly walked up to Su Jianxiang.
Deliberately stimulated, "How about it, the way you look now, wouldn't it be more appropriate to go to the deputy sect master to complain?" β
After speaking. The two maids were already smiling proudly.
In fact, another very important reason why these maids are prejudiced against Su Jianxiang is because of Wen Hanyue.
Last year, most of the people in the sect had heard about Wen Hanyue, Su Jianxiang, and Huo Qingxin.
They are doing this now, firstly, to take revenge on her for robbing them of their errand, and secondly, to punish her for offending Wen Hanyue.
Even if Wen Zhe knew about the things they did, they would push all this onto Wen Hanyue.
In this case, Wen Zheding would not blame them too much.
At this moment, another maid spoke again.
"If you want to be a serving maid in the Shenwu Palace, you have to see if we agree, if you want to serve people like this, it's not impossible. From today onwards, start by serving us! β
Listening to these provocative words, even a person with a good temper is about to be unable to restrain himself.
Su Jianxiang couldn't help but think, if Huo Qingxin was here today, I was afraid that there would inevitably be another big battle.
Just as she was about to reason with them again, the door of the small kitchen was suddenly kicked open from the outside!
Hearing this movement, the three people in the room, except for Su Jianxiang, were wiping their wet hair.
The other two maids were frightened by the sudden noise!
They all looked to the doorγγγ
Then, the person who stepped in with his feet raised appeared behind their sight.
The two people who have been arrogant and arrogant since just now will be like frosted eggplants.
I saw that a man in an ink-colored robe, walking with a steady step, with a rare layer of frost on his face, slowly walked inside.
For some reason, Su Jianxiang was a little afraid to look at that man at the moment.
Just like just now, when she heard the door kicked open, the first thing that flashed into her mind was...
Wen Zhe, he's coming...
The two maids were stunned for a moment, a little at a loss.
After a moment of astonishment, one of the maids hurriedly bowed his head and saluted.
"Meet the master!"
When the other maid saw it, she hurriedly followed suit.
Both of them were a little shaking! They were all thinking about whether the words they just said had been heard by this man!
