Chapter 11 Employers

Lei Qiang stretched out the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, pointed to his eyes, and then pointed at Zi Shumo, with a provocation and warning on his face. Zi Shumo still had an incomprehensible expression, and grinned paradoxically, so angry that he puffed out his cheeks.

Zishu Mo thought that the cold was because of Lei Qiang, but when he looked at Lei Qiang, he was sure that the breath was not from Lei Qiang. So what kind of person is staring at him with such malice?

Just as Zishu Mo was looking around, Qu Dian's voice came:

"I don't think this class reunion will go on tonight, but I won't regret what I promised everyone! We should be fine for the next two days, so let's organize another meeting. ”

Everyone didn't say anything, but most of them looked dejected, and some people muttered in a low voice: "Don't call me again for such a class reunion!" ”

After a while, the fire truck roared over, and the students scattered their own birds and beasts. But there are also a few people who have a good relationship with the Lei family who stayed, and most of them were from the Seven Great Families. Tu Xiuwen originally planned to stay, but seeing that Qin Yi had really drunk too much and no one sent her, she said hello to Lei Yun and Lei Qiang and left first.

Tu Xiuwen called the driver Uncle Xu, and everyone sent Qin Yi to the door of the house first, and then returned to the Tujia Manor together, at this time it was already early in the morning.

As soon as Tu Xiuwen got out of the car, she saw Sister Hui standing at the gate of the manor and looked forward to it, and hurriedly greeted her when she saw her.

"Ouch, miss, why are you only back now! The old man has called you many times, why don't you answer!? ”

"Ah, I didn't hear that! So, did grandpa sleep? Are my parents back? Tu Xiuwen asked nervously.

"The lord and the lady are still socializing outside, you haven't come back, where can the old man sleep!? You hurry up and say hello to him, and he already knows about your classmate living here, so I think you'd better take him with you to say hello. ”

Tu Xiuwen nodded and looked at Zi Shumo and asked for his opinion. Zi Shumo smiled: "Since I live here, I should go and say hello to the head of the house, but I am empty-handed, which is a little rude, right?" ”

"It's okay, my grandfather doesn't care about that!"

The two were led by Sister Hui to the main building in the center of the entire manor, which is a three-story building with a strong classical Chinese style, but without losing the sense of modernity.

Walking into the hall is like walking into a museum, rows of museum shelves and display cases are full of various handicrafts, most of which are made of bamboo, and there are all kinds of everything, Zishumo is simply dizzying.

Walk up the stairs to the second floor, where there is a thick carpet and there is no sound when you walk on it.

Rows of traditional-style wall lamps illuminate the inner corridors, and the walls are covered with heavily colored paintings. Judging from the inscription, these paintings are not from the hands of famous artists, but the brushwork is skillful and the colors are bold, which makes people feel that they are painting by a bold and careful person.

Sister Hui stopped at the door of the second room on the right hand side of the second floor, motioned for the two to wait at the door, knocked on the door and pushed the door in, and came out after a while and said to the two:

"Sir, please." As she spoke, Sister Hui glanced at Tu Xiuwen, suggesting that her master was not in a good mood, so she dealt with it carefully, and glanced at Zi Shumo with concern, and walked out.

Tu Xiuwen waved at Zishu Mo and took the lead and walked in.

There was a faint smell of sandalwood wafting in the room, and a few warm yellow lights were lit, which was not dazzling and made people feel comfortable. The furnishings in the room are also in a Chinese style, and the red and black furniture looks quite stable. Built-in bookshelves reach up to the ceiling, on which ornaments and books are staggered.

On a set of Chinese-style sofas sat an old man with gray hair in his seventies, wearing round gold-rimmed glasses, slightly chubby, wearing a black silk cardigan, a pair of black cloth shoes on his feet, a string of Buddhist beads hanging on his chest, and several strings of Buddhist beads of different materials wrapped around his wrists, and reading an old book.

"Grandpa!" Tu Xiuwen walked in, obediently leaned over to the old man's side and shouted coquettishly.

Tu Ye raised his head and wanted to reprimand him harshly, but as soon as he saw Tu Xiuwen's coquettish appearance, his anger was gone, and a smile appeared on his originally cold face.

beckoned Tu Xiuwen to sit down beside him, and then looked at Zi Shumo.

"Grandpa, this is my college classmate, Zi Shumo. I didn't discuss it with you in advance, so I let him live in our other courtyard, don't be angry with me. Tu Xiuwen said, grabbed Tu Ye's arm, and rubbed his shoulder like a kitten.

"Hey, you've all been brought into the house, can I still blast out?"

"Take the liberty to bother and cause you trouble, thank you Grandpa Tu!" Zi Shumo hurriedly said to him.

Tu Ye pursed his lips, nodded, and said: "Needless to say, polite words, I don't care if you are Wenwen's classmate or her boyfriend, in short, if you dare to bully her and make her sad, I guarantee that your life will not be very long." ”

Hey, that's a threat!? I obviously wear so many Buddha beads, but I don't have Buddha nature at all when I speak! Zi Shumo scolded for a while, nodded with a wry smile and said yes, thinking in his heart: This granddaughter who cares so much about him, should he not hire him to send Tu Xiuwen is this old man, right? But with his current understanding of the Tu family, Zi Shumo thinks that there is no need for Tu Ye to find a stranger to escort her secretly, how can he send her home safely with so many people under his command?

After all, it was late at night, Tu Ye and Tu Xiuwen chatted a few words and sent them back, and they didn't forget to "threaten" Zishumo a few more words.

Coming out of the study, Tu Xiuwen let out a long sigh of relief. Zi Shumo looked at her holding her chest, and whispered: "Are you afraid?" I didn't see it in there. ”

Tu Xiuwen made a strange look at him: "I'll send you back, lest you get lost." ”

Being sent back to his residence by such a cute girl, Zi Shumo's mood was a little complicated, but when he thought about it, this Tujiazhuang was indeed like a maze, and he was a little confused now, and he was sure that he heard the roars of several large guard dogs. If he, a stranger, was discovered by them, he could be torn apart by them.

The two walked silently towards the courtyard, and when they arrived at the door of Zi Shumo's room, Zi Shumo turned around and stared at Tu Xiuwen and said hesitantly:

"What happened tonight is no coincidence, and you classmates had better be careful."

Tu Xiuwen pursed her lips, looked up at Zi Shumo, and suddenly said:

"Come into the house, I have something to say to you."

Zishumo was stunned, didn't think too much, opened the door and turned on the light in the room, and let Tu Xiuwen into the room.

Tu Xiuwen turned on the air conditioner, took off her coat and sat down on the sofa, picked up the tea set on the coffee table and skillfully began to make tea.

Zi Shumo hesitated for a moment, closed the door, sat down opposite Tu Xiuwen, and watched Tu Xiuwen fiddle with the tea set with her white and slender fingers, as if she was making an extremely delicate handicraft.

It took a long time to wash the tea and toss the kettle before pouring out a cup of green tea as transparent as chalcedony.

Zi Shumo took the white porcelain teacup handed over by Tu Xiuwen, frowned slightly, and said in his heart: Tossing such a small cup for such a long time, it is gone in one sip, it really doesn't quench your thirst! And whether it is the color or aroma, it makes people reluctant to drink it in one gulp.

Just as Zi Shumo was playing with the teacup, Tu Xiuwen slowly opened her mouth:

"Actually, you've been tasked with protecting me."
