In this way, even if the matter of Zhou Biao's study was decided, Wu Shuda saw that the sky was already dark, and hurriedly instructed the little servant to go to the banquet and leave Mr. Tao Fu and Chen Yi for dinner in the East Courtyard.

Mr. Tao Fu hurriedly excused himself, "Brother Wu doesn't have to be polite, I'm just doing my best." ”

"Brother Tao Fu, you and I haven't seen each other for many days, today for the sake of Zhou Xian's nephew, I still bother you to run this trip in person, no matter what, you have to stay and let me do my best as a landlord, let's also catch up." Wu Shuda pulled Mr. Tao Fu and forcibly retained him, not giving Mr. Tao Fu a chance to refuse.

Mr. Tao Fu had no choice but to stay, Wu Shuda took Mr. Tao Fu to the study to read calligraphy and paintings, and Zhou Biao and Chen Yi could only accompany him.

Wu Yuan had just sat upright on the side for a long time, his waist was sore, and he said to Wu Yijin: "Little sister, it's late, it's time for me to say goodbye and go back to the middle court." ”

"Big sister, don't go!" Wu Yijin tugged at Wu Yuan's sleeve and whispered, "You just accompany me, how embarrassing it is for me to sit here alone." ”

When Wu Yuan heard this, he was annoyed and said: "I understand, you just want to see your cousin Zhou stay here, I don't want to stay here, my waist is sore, little sister, you just let my sister go, Ming'er has to get up early in the morning to go to Xiaokuan Courtyard!" ”

Wu Yijin's face turned red all of a sudden, and she said shyly: "Where do I want to see him, sister, don't talk nonsense." Beware of being heard. ”

"Look, I'm shy, my little face is red, I said you were careful." Wu Yuan poked Wu Yijin's head, "You really can, you have to keep me here!" You can't be more reserved, I think the third uncle can probably see your thoughts. ”

The two laughed and played, and saw that the curtain was lifted, it was Chen Yi who came out, Wu Yuan hurriedly sat down dignifiedly, looking like a beautiful lady, holding the teacup casually.

"Chen Gongzi, why did you come out?" Wu Yijin asked curiously, "Cousin Zhou, they're still inside." ”

"Wu Shibo, they discussed calligraphy and painting in the study, and I didn't know much about it, so I made an excuse to come out." Chen Yi said lightly.

"It turns out that you are not good at it, my uncle praised you so much, I thought you could do anything。。。。。。" Wu Yuan pursed his lips and muttered quietly.

"Sister, what did you say?" Wu Yijin tugged at Wu Yuan's sleeve and asked curiously.

Chen Yi heard it, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his ear power is naturally different from ordinary people.

I saw the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and he looked at Wu Yuan with a smile.

Wu Yuan turned to something else, chatted with Wu Yijin about embroidery, and deliberately left Chen Yi aside.

Seeing that Wu Yuan ignored him, Chen Yi sat opposite with a smile, and said casually: "This is the first time I have come to Wu's house, I wonder if Miss Wu can let the little girl take me out to visit the East Courtyard?" ”

Wu Yijin was a little hesitant when she heard this, she didn't want to leave, in case Cousin Zhou came out, she hadn't spoken to Cousin Zhou for so long.

However, Chen Gongzi is a guest after all, and the guest's request should be satisfied, but without the host to accompany him, his father will say that he is ignorant.

Wu Yijin turned to look at Wu Yuan, and when Wu Yuan saw this, he hurriedly turned his head to the other side, pretending to be looking at the flower shelf outside.

"Sister, if you don't 。。。。。。" Wu Yijin whispered for help, "Trouble sister, you lead Chen Gongzi to walk around the yard?" Sister, it's just a walk around the yard, so you can do my sister a favor。。。。。。 ”

Wu Yuan glared at his sister and whispered in annoyance: "I'm a woman, how can I lead him to the yard to hang out!" How bad it is to be seen by others! If you want to go, I won't go. ”

Wu Yijin hugged Wu Yuan's arm and shook it coquettishly, "Good sister, you can help, just walk around the east courtyard, it's not outside, no one will see it." ”

Seeing this, Chen Yi pursed his lips and snickered, "If it's inconvenient, forget it, I can just sit here and drink tea and wait for Wu Shibo and them to come out, but I don't know how long it will take。。。。。。 It's okay, Miss Wu doesn't have to be embarrassed. ”

"Convenient, convenient, Gongzi Chen, you are a guest, don't be so restrained, sister, am I right?" Wu Yijin hurriedly said.

Wu Yuan was furious in his heart, and Chen Yi was retreating.

Wu Yuanqiang pressed the unhappiness in his heart, and said bluntly word by word: "Chen Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, I will lead Chen Gongzi around the east courtyard." ”

Chen Yi saw that Wu Yuan was a little annoyed, and hurriedly said, "There is Sister Lao Yuan." ”

After that, Wu Yuan called the maid to follow and wait, and then walked out with Chen Yi.

The two were speechless all the way, silently strolling around, Chen Yi looked at Wu Yuan all the way, but after a month, Wu Yuan lost a lot of weight, thinking of the rumors circulating outside about Wu Yuan being a bad star, Chen Yi didn't know what to say for a while.

"Chen Gongzi, this East Courtyard is basically like this, I don't know where else you want to go?" Wu Yuan said indifferently.

Chen Yi looked up, and unconsciously walked to the covered bridge, there was a pavilion in front of him, Chen Yi pointed to the pavilion and said, "Why don't we take a look over there." ”

Wu Yuan looked in the direction of his finger, this pavilion was in the middle of the courtyard, and everyone who came and went had to pass through it, and the people standing in the pavilion also knew the situation outside at a glance.

Wu Yuan was a little hesitant, she thought that she would go back with Chen Yi casually, so as not to be seen by others, and they chewed their tongues behind their backs.

"Go to the pavilion, I have something to say to you." Chen Yi said in a low voice.

Wu Yuan raised his head when he heard this, and met Chen Yi's eyes, and couldn't help but nod silently, comforting himself in his heart, maybe he wanted to tell me about his father's case, so he went to the pavilion.

The maid stood outside the pavilion and waited, and there was no one to come and go.

"Why didn't you go to Mr. Sun's yard to cook the herbs? Have you forgotten Mr. Sun's entrustment? Chen Yi said in a low voice.

Wu Yuan was stunned, he didn't expect him to suddenly ask this.

"It's inconvenient for me to go out of the house, and I haven't found a chance to go out, so naturally I take care of the herbs flawlessly." Wu Yuan said with some embarrassment, "You went to the medicine garden?" What happened to those herbs? ”

Wu Yuan was a little uneasy, twisting his fingers and thinking to himself, should there be no one to take care of it, the medicine garden is barren, and those medicinal herbs are withered...

Chen Yi was speechless, and he couldn't say that he would go to the medicine garden every few days, thinking if he could meet Wu Yuan.

Chen Yi blushed a little instantly, and said in a low voice: "I just passed by there a few days ago and went in to take a look, and saw that those medicine gardens were overgrown with weeds, so I guess you must not have taken care of it." ”

"Huh? Those herbs must have withered, and now Mr. Sun should blame me when he comes back, he was kind enough to treat my father, but I failed his instructions. Wu Yuan muttered uneasily, blaming himself in his heart, he should find an excuse to go out of the house and go to the medicine garden to have a look.

"Sister Yuan, don't worry, I've already taken care of them, they're all alive and good, you don't have to blame yourself." Chen Yi hurriedly said.

Wu Yuan was a little relieved when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "Thank you Gongzi Chen, otherwise I really don't know how to explain to Mr. Sun." ”

When Chen Yi heard this, she secretly laughed at herself for deceiving her so roundaboutly, she really thought that she was doing it for the sake of herbs.

When I went to ask Mr. Tao for an article today, I heard Mr. Tao say that he was going to come to Wu's house in the afternoon, so he found an excuse to accompany Mr. Tao to Wu's house as a guest, but he was worried that Wu Yuan would not have a good time at Wu's house, after all, there were rumors outside, and there were all kinds of things.

What's more, when it was said that the Wu family was going to drive Wu Yuan, a scourge, out of the house, Chen Yi couldn't help but worry about Wu Yuan when he heard it, so he thought of finding an opportunity to come to the Wu family to have a look.
