Chapter Thirty-Seven: Afraid of Him?
"Yes, it's the Book of Filial Piety." Mr. Qiao Nu repeated, his attitude was very impatient, "Ten times, bring it to me tomorrow morning." ”
Jiang Yu pursed her lips and asked her, "The student didn't understand what made a mistake that made Mr. Qiao unhappy." ”
Mr. Qiao Nu thought that Jiang Yu would definitely copy it, but he didn't expect her to dare to ask back.
"Okay, it's okay to call yourself sick and absent from class, and now you dare to ask the teacher - do you take me as a female gentleman in your eyes!" Mr. Qiao's voice suddenly became louder, "If you don't write, I won't care about you in the future, I'm not the only one who can't be a student!" ”
Jiang Yu frowned and didn't speak again.
Mr. Qiao Nu looked at her appearance, felt quite satisfied, turned around and walked towards the wooden ladder in the building.
Jiang Yu watched her go upstairs and began to pack up the books herself.
When she walked out of Banzhuxuan, the wind was a little strong, and the leaves swirled in the air, and finally landed on the damp black mud, which gradually merged with the soil in the twilight, and it was impossible to see clearly.
Jiang Yu wrapped her coat and stood under the porch waiting for Yingcui or one of her girls to pick her up.
However, after a while, she didn't wait, but waited for Jiang Yuzhi.
The young man wore a dark moire straight jacket and walked towards her from the long path, his lonely and upright figure against the light, still as quiet as ever.
Jiang Yu was stunned, and in a few breaths, Jiang Yuzhi had stopped in front of her.
"Fourth brother," Jiang Yu pulled up the hem of her skirt and saluted, and greeted him.
Jiang Yuzhi bowed slightly, and handed her a book, "Copybook." ”
Seeing that Jiang Yu was just looking at him ignorantly, he added: "The second cousin is studying with Mr. Xu, please let me send this." ”
Jiang Yu then took the notebook and looked at it, and smiled at Jiang Yuzhi: "Trouble the fourth brother." ”
She thought that Jiang Yuzhi would leave after sending the note, but who knew that as soon as she lowered her head and flipped through a page of the note, she heard a faint hoarse voice above her head, urging her: "Let's go, I'll send you back." ”
Jiang Yu couldn't help but raise her head to look at him, and reached out to touch her ears again, wondering if there was an auditory hallucination just now.
“······ Fourth brother, I'm fine, wait a while and the maid should arrive, you go and get busy······"
I don't know which sentence made him unhappy, but when he spoke again, his tone was obviously much colder.
"You still don't understand? Grandmother specially asked the second cousin to pick you up, so naturally she doesn't need your maid. As he spoke, he took two steps closer to Jiang Yu, and the distance between the two was much closer, and Jiang Yu could even feel the pressure on the top of her head.
She took two steps back vigilantly, tilting her head slightly to stare at Jiang Yuzhi's hand hanging at her side.
Coldly, the corners of Jiang Yuzhi's mouth hooked, and a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes.
He only raised his arm lightly, pulled her over, bent down and whispered in her ear, "If you don't leave, I don't promise to do anything." ”
Jiang Yu's eyes widened, feeling that the future was confused.
Jiang Yuzhi didn't care about her anymore, but turned around and walked forward.
He walked for a while, and there was a trotting sound behind him, and it was Jiang Yu chasing after him.
The young man's steps did not change, but the distance he crossed was smaller.
The two always kept some distance from each other, although Jiang Yu had short legs and chased a little hard, but he also felt more at ease than walking beside him, and he had the right to exercise his physique.
On the way back to Jiufutang, she met Jin Fang's mother, who she hadn't seen for a long time, and Jiang Yu stopped to say a few words to her.
Jin Fang's mother knew that she had just come back from school, but she obviously didn't expect that it would be Jiang Yuzhi who sent Jiang Yuyu back.
She saluted Jiang Yuzhi lightly, and looked at him deeply, Jiang Yuzhi was expressionless, staring into the distance.
"Sister Yu, you ····· Have you been close to the Fourth Young Master lately? Before leaving, Jin Fang's mother asked in a very low voice worriedly.
Jiang Yu felt that it was nothing at this time, and said with relief: "Mother Fang, don't worry, the fourth brother is good to me." ”
Jin Fang's mother didn't say anything more, and led them to the main hall where the old lady was.
The old lady's reaction was much stronger than that of Jin Fang's mother, but when they went, there were still many people in the house.
The eldest lady Chen and the second lady Zhao were all there, looking at Mrs. Jiang's side with a smile, two middle-aged men who were about forty years old.
Jiang Yu searched her memory and recognized that the one sitting on the left hand side of the old lady who looked younger and had some beards on her face was Chen's husband, that is, the uncle.
Another one with thick eyebrows and big eyes, at first glance, is the second uncle - Jiang Zhizhao is somewhat similar to him, the difference is that there is always a feeling in his eyes that Jiang Yu can't say, like ······· Thirst, especially strong thirst.
Although he was listening to the old lady on the surface, his eyes kept scanning the maids walking around him for a moment.
Following his gaze, it was Lilac's legs, she only cared about delivering things, she walked quickly, her skirt was short, revealing more close-fitting clothes, and the graceful curves of women.
Jiang Yu felt a burst of nausea.
When Mrs. Jiang asked her and Jiang Yuzhi to go to the hall to greet Jiang Weishan and Jiang Weide, Jiang Yu deliberately moved behind Jiang Yuzhi and did not go to the old lady's side as usual.
Fortunately, although the second uncle's eyes lit up when he saw her, he didn't pay too much attention, and his eyes turned to the other maids.
Jiang Yu looked at his greasy gaze and felt even more like pins and needles.
Not far from her, the second aunt Zhao was smiling and trembling, eager to take out the enthusiasm of the year.
Coincidentally, someone from the kitchen was sent to spread the word that dinner was ready, and Jiang Zhizhao and the others also got the news and came to Jiufutang.
Jiang Yu took the opportunity to retire.
"Grandmother, Mr. Daughter has assigned a lot of homework today, I'll go back first, otherwise I won't be able to finish it."
The two sons came back together today, Mrs. Jiang was overjoyed, and naturally she didn't think much about her granddaughter's words, so she ordered someone to prepare the dishes and let Jiang Yu take them back together.
She glanced at Jiang Yuzhi, who was standing next to her, and didn't like it in her heart, so she let him go with him.
So Jiang Yuzhi and Jiang Yu left Jiufutang together.
At the carved moon cave gate in the courtyard of Jiufutang, Jiang Yu ran into Jiang Zhihua who ran in a panic again, and almost bumped into it.
"Eh, why don't you walk long-" Jiang Zhihui then looked up and saw Jiang Yu standing in front of her, and swallowed back the curse words, her face was a little embarrassed: "It's you, I wanted to wait for you today, but then I heard that my father was back, so I rushed to see him-oh, look at my head, you just came out of it...... I'll go first. ”
Jiang Zhihui waved her hand excitedly as she spoke, and ran around Jiang Yu to the inside, and the maid with her turned pale with fright, and shouted to her to slow down.
Jiang Yu smiled and looked at her back, only then did she notice that her clothes were not the same as before, and Jiang Zhihua changed into a new set of clothes.
She recognized the clothes, it was Mrs. Jiang who prepared them for the New Year for their sisters, Jiang Zhi painted it well, and she wore it now.
Probably for her, the day she saw her father was more worthy of celebration than the New Year.
Jiang Yu felt a wave of envy in her heart.
She shook her head, turned around and was about to leave, but accidentally found that Jiang Yuzhi was also looking at Jiang Zhi's back, his eyes were obscure.
Jiang Yu suddenly had a feeling, did Jiang Yuzhi know something she didn't know?
