Chapter 25 Buying Firewood

“…… Grandma also works? Rong Sheng blinked, thinking he had misheard, "What are you doing with so many radish sticks?" ”

The row of shelves is not ordinarily large, how many radishes have to be cut when they are full, and Rongsheng will grow just by looking at it.

"The young lady is not in good health, so she is reluctant to let her work." Qiu Ju took the empty curtain handed by Rong Sheng, and sighed rarely, "It's just that everyone is busy, and Miss's knife skills are the best, if you change me and Aunt Magpie, that shelf may not be able to be filled in two days...... In winter, there are no vegetables to eat, so we rely on these radish strips to pickle vegetables. Showing off, "The dried vegetables made by the young lady are delicious!" Patting the debris off the curtain, Qiu Ju looked up, and saw Rongsheng looking behind him in a daze, so he turned his head, "Will ...... The general is back. I don't know when, Shen Zhongqi was standing behind them.

Although he was handsome, Qiu Juda was a little scared in his heart for this cold-faced general with a cold face and an invisible momentum all over his body.

"Where did the general go early in the morning?" After coming back to his senses, Rongsheng jumped off the ladder.

"Is this it?" As he was talking, a woodcutter in a short gray cloth coat walked in with a large bundle of firewood on his back, "Where do you put the firewood?" ”

Shen Zhongqi looked at Qiu Ju.

"Will ...... Uncle went to buy firewood? "Ascended to the throne was a little stunned.

"The slave is going to call Miss." When he came back to his senses, seeing that there were still people at the door one after another to send firewood here, Qiu Ju's voice was filled with joy.

With so much firewood, she won't have to get up in the morning to fetch firewood in the future!

Save your effort and pick up more mushrooms.

As soon as he turned around, he was stopped by Shen Zhongchi, "No! He didn't want Zhen Siniang to face these rough woodcutters, "You just tell them where to put the firewood, so that Rongsheng can settle down." "Look at the firewood and pay the money." With that, he lifted his feet and went into the house.

Zhen Siniang was sitting on the kitchen floor cutting radish, and she had already cut a large pot of kung fu this time.

"You eat this radish strip all winter?" was lowering her head and cutting seriously, not beware of a cold voice behind her, Zhen Shi Niang trembled, and almost cut her hand, she raised her head in dismay, Shen Zhongqi was frowning at her.

How does this man look like a cat?

I didn't make a sound when I walked, and I was scared out of my heart attack by him sooner or later!

Thinking that she had been scared by him twice this morning, Zhen Siniang muttered fiercely in her heart, put down the knife and stood up, "The general is back, and the concubine will set the meal." ”

The body is losing blood, and the blood pressure itself is low, Zhen Shi Niang has been sitting for a long time on weekdays, and she stands up slowly, but today she was frightened by Shen Zhongchi, and suddenly stood up, only to feel dizzy in her head.

Seeing her staggering, Shen Zhongqi helped her.

With a dizzy head, Zhen Siniang grabbed something randomly, didn't think about what it was, and did a lot of work without eating in the morning, just after a while, she was sweating.

"If you can't do it, don't do these jobs." Shen Zhongchi's voice was unusually soft.

"Miss, Miss......" As soon as Zhen Shiniang breathed a sigh of relief, Qiu Ju's excited voice came from outside, "The general bought all the firewood on the set!" Not to mention that the firewood stack in the west corner was full, and there was a small stamping in the backyard, which was enough for them to burn for a year.

As she spoke, Qiu Ju looked up and saw Zhen Shi Niang snuggling in Shen Zhongchi's arms, Shen Zhongqi was gently rubbing her bruised chin, Qiu Ju's face turned red, "The slave didn't see anything!" She quickly turned her back.

This silly girl.

was amused by Qiu Ju and wanted to laugh, Zhen Shi Niang came back to her senses and found that she was ambiguously leaning on Shen Zhongqi's arms, and she broke free of him, "...... I'm sorry, but the concubine didn't mean to. ”

is a husband and wife, she can't stand steadily, it's normal for him to help her, why is she scared like this?

Seeing her frightened and avoiding herself like a rabbit, a trace of annoyance flashed in Shen Zhongchi's eyes, his face sank, and he turned around and went into the bathroom.

Wiping the fine sweat on her forehead, Zhen Shi Niang tried to calm her heartbeat and beckoned Qiu Ju, "...... Bring the kettle from the stove to the general. ”

Qiu Ju ran over with a smile and responded briskly, "Yes!" Looking at Zhen Shi Niang's eyes, there was a flutter.

Seeing her unbeaten look, Zhen Siniang gave her a blank look and turned around to clean up the food.

Born as a wanderer, Qiu Ju doesn't know so many hierarchical rules in the mansion as magpies, her fear of Shen Zhongqi just stems from the evil aura that he exudes from time to time, at this time, seeing that he bought so much firewood early in the morning and came back, Qiu Ju felt that he was not so terrible, he was the same as her young lady, he was a person who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, poured hot water for him, and stood in the middle of the ground and secretly looked at his handsome back, the more he looked at it, the better he looked, and felt that her young lady was really blessed, so he said, "I can't imagine it, You turned out to be a famous general, and the young lady never mentioned it, and the slave thought it was ......"

Zhen Shi Niang and Magpie never mentioned Brother Wen's father to her, and for two years, Qiu Ju had always thought that her young lady was a person who had a dead husband, and when the words came to her mouth, she remembered that these words were unlucky, and she hurriedly swallowed it back.

I had long felt that someone was staring at him behind him, Shen Zhongzhen hated the little girl the most for being unruly, and was about to kick her out, when she heard this, her heart moved, and she blurted out, "...... Does the eldest grandmother never say that she has a husband? Why do you think so? ”

Do you think she's still a big girl with yellow flowers?

I don't know why, as soon as I thought of this, Shen Zhongqi's eyes flashed in front of Zhen Shiniang talking and laughing with a big man early in the morning, and the annoyance that had just disappeared came up again.

How?

The sons are so old, who will believe them if they say that they don't have a husband?

Qiu Ju blinked, and was just about to go back, remembering that Zhen Siniang had specially explained that she was not allowed to mention Jianwen Jianwu, she stuck out her tongue in fright, and said in her heart that it was dangerous, if she really missed it, Miss had to peel her skin.

"How?" Seeing that she didn't speak, Shen Zhongqi stopped stirring the water and turned around.

"The slave only knows that the young lady has a husband, but she doesn't know that it is you...... I thought it was ...... I thought ......" Qiu Ju's voice lowered, and she secretly looked at Shen Zhongqi's expression, "Miss is ...... What about the man who died of his husband? ”

Feeling that the temperature around her dropped suddenly, and the evil aura that scared her came back again, Qiu Ju subconsciously took a step back, and was about to run away, but she heard Shen Zhongqi ask again, "...... When did you get here? When did the big grandmother get blood deficiency? How? "He is very strange, she is obviously very hard, why does she still accept maids?

If there is one less mouth to eat at home, life will be much easier, doesn't she understand this truth?

"The slave is a wanderer, two years ago he was saved by the young lady at the door in a hungry faint, and the slave couldn't help but beg, so he left ......" As he was talking, he heard the magpie barking outside, Qiu Ju answered, turned around and ran out.

Standing up slowly, Shen Zhongqi looked thoughtfully at the slender figure in the kitchen who was busy with his head down through the door, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

Just for sympathy, he took in an orphan girl who had nothing to do with him, making her already difficult life even harder, and it turned out that she also had such a kind side.

Why didn't he find out before?
