Chapter 27: Show of Affection

Change the environment, change the mood. On the first night of coming to Zhuangzi, Yan Lingyue had a good night's sleep.

With Zhou Ziyu living opposite, she thought that he would definitely come to knock on the door early in the morning, and deliberately got up early in the morning and dressed neatly to prevent any embarrassing scenes.

Unexpectedly, I waited for Mama Li to bring breakfast, and I didn't see Zhou Ziyu coming.

Yan Lingyue was surprised, "What about the Nine Emperor Princes?" You can't get up yet, right? ”

Mama Li looked at the closed room opposite and shook her head, "Since Mama got up, the door of the Nine Emperor Princes has been closed. It was rare for her own young lady to take the initiative to care about the Nine Emperors, and Mama Li took the initiative to say, "Why don't you knock on the door?" ”

"What do you do when you knock on the door? Is it possible to call him over for breakfast? Yan Lingyue trembled, she wished that Zhou Ziyu wouldn't bother her all day today. She's happy to be quiet!

Yan Lingyue was in a good mood and ate two small bowls of lotus seed porridge in a row. As soon as she wiped her mouth here, the housekeeper in Zhuangzi came over, saying that the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince were waiting for her in the back garden.

When she walked out of the room and passed by Zhou Ziyu's room, Yan Lingyue glared fiercely at the closed door. She got up early in the morning, but the Nine Emperors didn't think about coming to her at all, she was simply self-inflicted!

Yan Lingyue has an opinion. It's one thing for her to not want to see Zhou Ziyu, but it's another thing for Zhou Ziyu not to come to her! She felt deeply that she was being ignored.

With full of complaints against Zhou Ziyu, Yan Lingyue stepped into the back garden. From a distance, I saw Zhou Ziyu sitting by the lake fishing, and a woman in a lilac smoke skirt was sitting next to him. Judging from the silhouette, the two of them are talking and laughing.

Yan Lingyue's face darkened. Zhou Ziyu didn't go to her, the relationship was because there were beauties here!

It's a pity that the distance is too far to see what that beauty looks like. Just as she was stretching her neck to look at the two of them, Zhou Ziqin's laughter came from the pavilion not far away, "Brother and sister are looking at the ninth brother so badly, is it possible that they are jealous?" ”

Jealous? Your whole family is jealous! Yan Lingyue was annoyed in her heart, turned around and lifted the hem of her skirt and strode over, "I didn't expect that the third prince would still have Yingying Yanyan in captivity in this village......

Before she finished speaking, she saw Zhou Ziqin clenching his fist, blocking his mouth and coughing lightly.

"What, could it be that the Nine Emperors are sick?" Yan Lingyue snorted lightly and stepped into the pavilion with her feet raised, but the next moment, the smile on the corner of her mouth stiffened.

There was still a person sitting opposite Zhou Ziqin that week! It's just that the figure was covered by the bamboo forest, and she didn't see it.

Seeing that Yan Lingyue was stunned in place, Zhou Ziqin's smiling eyes narrowed together, "Come on, come on, Prince Rongben will introduce you, this is the grandson of Old General Duan, Major General Duan Minghong." ”

The moment Duan Minghong turned around, his eyes met, and Yan Lingyue was stunned again. She didn't expect that Duan Minghong, the famous Major General Duan in the capital, would be the kind-hearted person in the mouths of Xiaohu and Ah Fei.

Duan Minghong was even more shocked. He didn't expect that the beautiful and kind Sister Yue in Xiaohu and Ah Fei's mouth was actually the fifth lady of Yanfu who was about to marry the Nine Emperor Princes.

At a hurried glance at the courtyard that day, he had been thinking about that bright and moving smiling face. He never thought that the girl he thought about day and night would already have a marriage contract.

Yan Lingyue and Duan Minghong's reactions made Zhou Ziqin see the clue, "...... Could it be that the younger brother and sister know Major General Duan? ”

The woman who has not left the cabinet knows a foreign man, which is not a glorious thing.

But Yan Lingyue and Duan Minghong did have a relationship, if they denied it at this moment, it would inevitably make people think more. And the two have only met once, and there is no need to lie. Thinking of this, Yan Lingyue smiled, "It's not an acquaintance, it's just that by chance, there was a one-sided relationship." ”

"It turns out that Miss Yue is the fifth lady of Yan Mansion, it's really disrespectful," the girl he was thinking about still remembered him, and it stands to reason that Duan Minghong should be happy. But at this moment, he couldn't laugh at all.

Under Zhou Ziqin's questioning, Yan Lingyue briefly described the incident in a few words. Zhou Ziqin listened to it, and said that it was fate, "If it weren't for the fact that I met Major General Duan in the middle of the road yesterday, this prince wouldn't know that the house next door to my courtyard was actually the private residence of the Duan family." ”

Duan Minghong said, "Minghong also told his mother when he went back last night, and his mother said that she would tidy up the yard and invite the Third Prince and the Nine Emperor Princes to come over as guests. Unexpectedly, he received an invitation from the third prince early this morning. ”

"That's really a coincidence," Yan Lingyue smiled dryly. Because of the position where she was sitting, facing the lake, it was inevitable to see the backs of Zhou Ziyu and the woman when she looked up.

Duan Minghong was afraid that Yan Lingyue would misunderstand, so he took the initiative to say, "That's my cousin, the daughter of Minghong's second uncle, named Duan Nianyun." ”

Zhou Ziqin seized the opportunity and immediately refuted Yan Lingyue and said, "She is the eldest lady of Duanfu, not the warbler Yanyan who is captive by this prince,"

Belch! It's really a big oolong. Yan Lingyue cleared her throat, and when she looked up again, she happened to see Duan Nianyun holding a handkerchief, helping Zhou Ziyu wipe his sweat.

This...... Although there is no love between her and Zhou Ziyu, Zhou Ziyu is her husband who is about to get married. Duan Nianyun is a young lady in the boudoir, and making such a move will inevitably make people misunderstand.

Yan Lingyue frowned unconsciously.

Duan Minghong, who had been paying attention to Yan Lingyue, followed her line of sight and saw that scene, and his face also changed. How can a woman who has not left the cabinet wipe the sweat of a foreign man. What's more, it's still a foreign man with a marriage contract! If this is seen by someone with a heart and then spread out, won't it make people talk behind their backs?

Duan Minghong immediately said, "Xiao Yu, don't call the eldest lady back." ”

However, Zhou Ziqin was happy after seeing Duan Nianyun helping Zhou Ziyu wipe his sweat, "Except for his younger brother and sister, the ninth brother has never let other women get close, this Miss Nianyun is really capable." ”

Speaking without intention, the listener has a heart.

Especially Mama Li, who was standing behind Yan Lingyue, was about to stare Duan Nianyun's back out of a hole. The last time their young lady kindly took Duan Nianyun back home, she still remembers.

Now that Duan Nianyun is so close to their future uncle, what does she want to do?! Mama Li was unhappy.

Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't call Duan Nianyun back, Mama Li proposed, "Why don't Miss go over and take a look, and see how many fish the Nine Emperor Princes have caught." ”

Without waiting for Yan Lingyue to speak, Duan Minghong stood up, "Then I'll go over and take a look." ”

Zhou Ziqin likes to watch jokes the most, where can he miss it, and he quickly stood up at the moment, grabbed Duan Minghong's shoulder and said, "Why don't we go and join in the fun and fish with the ninth brother?" ”

The sound of footsteps and talking behind him scared away the fish that were about to be baited. Zhou Ziyu was dissatisfied, "Can't you be quieter?" ”

Just when he was about to retract his gaze, he found Yan Lingyue walking behind. Zhou Ziyu was suddenly happy again, and he didn't even catch fish anymore, "Yue, Yue'er, are you up?" ”

Zhou Ziyu put down the fishing rod and opened his hands, about to pounce on Yan Lingyue.

Yan Lingyue, who was originally about to dodge, didn't know what she was thinking when she saw Duan Nianyun's resentful eyes, and the ghost made her stand still and didn't move, so she just let Zhou Ziyu hug her arms.

"Yo! In front of everyone's eyes, is it really good to show affection like this? Zhou Ziqin quipped while holding the fishing rod. In fact, seeing Zhou Ziyu's success, he was happier than anyone else, as if he had a sense of accomplishment as an apprentice.

Yan Lingyue rolled her eyes, but her eyes were paying attention to Duan Nianyun. Seeing that Duan Nianyun's face was getting more and more ugly, she patted Zhou Ziyu's back in a good mood and left his embrace.

But Zhou Ziyu didn't let go, "Yue, Yue'er, Ziyu will give you fishing to eat." ”

Zhou Ziyu still remembered the last time he rafted, because of Yan Zhihe's trouble, he couldn't let Yan Lingyue eat grilled fish, so he got up early this morning and came over to fish.

Zhou Ziyu pulled Yan Lingyue and sat beside him. It's just that in this way, there is no place for Duan Nianyun.

Duan Nianyun glared at Yan Lingyue fiercely, and could only sit beside Duan Minghong.

Since Duan Minghong came over from the pavilion, he didn't say a word from beginning to end, let alone look up at Zhou Ziyu and Yan Lingyue.

Although he hated Yan Lingyue very much, Duan Nianyun still admired his cousin who went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, "Big brother must catch a few more fish, and take them back to make soup for aunt to try." ”

Because of Duan Nianyun's act of wiping Zhou Ziyu's sweat, Duan Minghong had a bad impression of this cousin, so he didn't pay attention to her.

Duan Nianyun, who was left out in the cold, touched the tip of his nose and was embarrassed.

turned to look at Yan Lingyue again, it was held in the palm of Zhou Ziyu's hand.

"Yue, Yue'er, are you hungry, do you want to eat a snack?" Zhou Ziyu held the fishing rod with one hand and Yan Lingyue's hand with the other.

Yan Lingyue shook her head, "Just finished breakfast, where will I be hungry." ”

But Zhou Ziyu was quiet for a moment, and then asked, "Yue, Yue'er, are you thirsty, I asked Zhang Yu to pour water for Yue'er?" ”

Yan Lingyue was helpless, so she could only shake her head again, "If you are not hungry or thirsty, the Nine Emperor Princes can fish with peace of mind." ”

Who would have thought that it didn't take long for Zhou Ziyu to look at the sun above his head, and asked again, "Yue'er, are you sunburning?" Why don't you go and sit in the pavilion? ”

Now, without waiting for Yan Lingyue to speak, Zhou Ziqin was about to go crazy, "Ninth brother, if you talk again, we won't be able to catch a single fish." ”

Zhou Ziyu gloated, "Anyway, Ziyu has already caught a lot of fish, even if he doesn't fish, it's enough to eat at noon." ”

After the words fell, he simply put down the fishing rod and brought the fish bucket to Yan Lingyue, "Yue, Yue'er, look, this time Yan Zhihe is not here, we will definitely be able to eat grilled fish." ”

Zhou Ziqin, who was originally depressed, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Ninth brother is still thinking about the last boating?" A manly man is not good at holding grudges. ”
