Chapter 08: Unexpected News

In the middle of the night, Tao Yao was sleeping comfortably. Suddenly, a sound woke her up, and a dark shadow burst into her room, and before she could react, her acupoint was stopped by someone else.

If it weren't for this black shadow taking advantage of the danger, how could she let him succeed with her skills?

However, after a closer look, the black shadow was not masked, it was actually Young Master He himself.

Tao Yao looked at his cold face and met his eyes, only to see him looking at her with complicated eyes and inexplicable meaning.

"Young master, this is?" Why did he do this, she asked with a little innocence.

"You're a woman!" His tone was slightly angry.

It is not difficult to hear that he is saying an affirmative sentence, Tao Yao can't move, and he can't blink undeniably, indicating yes.

His hand suddenly covered her face: "Your human skin mask is also exquisite, you can't really see it if you don't look closely." ”

"How did the young master know that I wasn't a man?" She asked lightly, still in a calm tone.

"Your hands are not as slender as a man," he said with a slight sinister look.

She was speechless for a moment, thinking that she had handed him a pocket watch during the day. It was discovered like this, and it seems that this disguise will have to be a whole body in the future.

"I'd like to see what is going on under your human skin mask?" His hand increased in force, and the covering on her face was unobstructed.

Tao Yao thought to herself that she was sorry to disappoint him, she didn't have any flower and moon appearance, she just had a clear and beautiful face, an ordinary appearance.

And she still said in her heart, if he wants to see the beauty, he might as well go back to the room and look in the mirror.

Seeing a trace of disappointment floating on his face, Tao Yao sneered in her heart, very good, she really didn't disappoint her.

"I've disappointed the young master." She said lightly.

"Why did you come to my house in disguise?" His tone was not angry, but he couldn't see the mood.

"I have no ill intentions, young master, I just wanted to be an ordinary bookkeeper before, and you asked me to come to you." Yes, that's exactly how it is,

She only hoped that this young master was a reasonable person.

He looked thoughtful, and then said with a poisonous tongue: "How can this appearance be disguised! ”

Tao Yao tried to suppress the dissatisfaction in her heart, hehe, who has to watch it?

"The little ones have their own troubles." I can't understand the meaning anymore, I just don't want him to ask again.

Apparently he didn't want to let her go: "You don't say? The anger in his eyes grew stronger.

Tao Yao thought that this Young Master He was not a master to be messed with, and subconsciously remembered the bloody plot in some small books that he had nothing to read.

"I was originally the daughter of the Tao family in Jiangnan, my mother was my father's third concubine, and my father loved her very much. But my mother died of an illness last month, and my father was overly sick in bed. Taking advantage of my father's illness, my aunt forced me to marry a forester in the same county as a concubine, but there were more than 50 concubines in that person, and I didn't want to marry him, so I escaped with the help of the maid. I fled all the way to Yun'an, but the silver on my body was stolen, and I saw that He Fu was recruiting, so I applied for it. The art of disguise and arithmetic were taught by my master. She said it very sincerely, and pretended to be sad and squeezed out half a tear.

This young master won't be bored enough to check this, after all, she hasn't done anything hurtful to his family.

While staring at her eyes, he was weighing the truth of her words, and it took a long time to seem to figure it out, "Forgive me for not daring to say a lie!" Then he turned and left.

"Young Master, Acupoint!" This girl is really bad, but fortunately, after she reminded her, he finally unlocked the acupoint for her before leaving.

But Tao Yao weighed in her heart, it seems that this He Mansion can't stay for a long time.

Since that night, Tao Yao has seen Young Master He again, and there is a little more unnaturalness in her heart. And he looked at her as if nothing had happened, if it weren't for the fact that the human skin mask was really destroyed, she really thought that she had just dreamed that night.

Fortunately, there haven't been many opportunities for her to see him these days.

On this day, Tao Yao accompanied the little master to review the homework taught by the master, and he pestered her to listen to the story.

Although the little master is well-behaved, he is still a child, and Tao Yao pondered to tell him a revised story of Little Red Riding Hood. He listened carefully, perhaps tired from the lesson, and he fell asleep in her arms in the middle of the story.

She looked at the child in her arms a little helplessly, to be honest, what I really like about this child has nothing to do with who his father is, maybe it is just the mother's love hidden deep in the bottom of my heart.

After gently carrying him back to the bed, Tao Yao felt a little hungry, so she walked to the kitchen with familiarity.

During this time, she had already dealt with Uncle Wang in the kitchen.

This Uncle Wang is also worthy of the chef of Hefu, and his cooking skills are really good.

As the saying goes, if you want to eat well, you must first have a good relationship with the cook. In fact, she said this herself.

That's right, she not only loves to sleep, but also a foodie, it is a blessing to be able to eat, she loves to eat and sleep, there is nothing bad about it.

When she went to the kitchen door, she heard that Uncle Wang was chatting with a few family members in idleness, and when he saw that it was her, he shouted very politely: "Mr. Tao." ”

Tao Yao also replied: "Uncle Wang is polite." ”

After many dealings, he saw that the peach was coming, and understood that he was begging for food, so he took out a plate of osmanthus cake and handed it to her.

She thanked him, picked up the pastry and walked back to her room.

Looking at this osmanthus cake, Tao Yao suddenly missed Fu Bo a little, and also missed the little junior brother who was usually noisy. This man is always sentimental.

Halfway through, she suddenly heard some small and broken sounds, and across the rockery, she heard the sound of a few people talking at the other end.

Tao Yao said in his heart that the few idle little family members were breaking their mouths, and they had no intention of snooping and were ready to go back.

But the sudden news succeeded in stopping her in her tracks.

"Do you know why the young master has been so busy lately?" The family Ding Jia asked.

Jia Ding Yi: "It is said that this young master has been talking about business with the prince of the Lin Mansion recently. ”

Jia Ding Bing: "The son of the Lin Mansion you are talking about is the Lin Rui Lin son of the Lin Xiang family?" ”

Jia Ding Yi: "That's it, you said that the son of Lin Xiang has a good official position, how did he start a business?" ”

Jia Ding Ding: "You don't know, it is said that this Lin Gongzi is still the future head of the Yunshan faction. ”

Jia Ding Jia was very gossipy: "But I don't know what business this young master is doing with Lin Gongzi?" ”

Jia Ding Yi: "It is said that the war on the frontier has broken out again recently, and Lin Gongzi is discussing the supply of grain and grass with the young master. ”

Jia Ding Ding: "It seems that this son of the Lin family will still enter the court as an official in the future." ”

Jia Ding Bing said quite gossips, "No, haven't you heard of it? The emperor has already decreed that the fifth princess will be assigned to Lin Gongzi. ”

Jia Ding Yi: "You don't know, a few days ago, I saw this Lin Gongzi walking with the fifth princess in the market, but he is really a talented woman." ”

Hearing this, Tao Yao sighed in her heart, daring to love this Lin fox is now in Yun'an City.

She knew in her heart that no wonder she could walk so smoothly this time, and she hadn't seen anyone find her for so long.

It turns out that Lin Rui now has the beauty of the Fifth Emperor Sister in his arms, maybe he doesn't care about her existence anymore.

After waiting so long for this day, she thought she would be happy, but for some reason she had mixed feelings.
