Chapter Sixty-Eight: Busy at Night
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
"Second master, can you do this?" Bai Susu looked around, pulled her off the bed in the middle of the night, and the two sneakily ran to the backyard to catch crickets.
She felt that she must have slept badly recently and hallucinated, they were wise and martial, how could Lord Lu do such a thing that children like.
"It's definitely no problem, just watch it carefully, don't be discovered." Lu Zhiyuan was squatting on the ground, pouting his ass and staring at the grass motionlessly.
"I see, you take your time." Bai Susu yawned and looked around boredly.
This season is the time when crickets are infested, Lu Zhiyuan tosses and turns a little when he sleeps at night, Bai Susu thinks that he is worried about business, so he wants to help him solve a problem or two. But he never thought that he would directly pull her out and get dressed.
The summer wind blows on people and doesn't feel cool, with a stuffy breath, Bai Susu feels a burst of sticky sweat just by standing, she actually has no interest in catching crickets in the middle of the night, but Lu Zhiyuan seems to find it very interesting, and he has been squatting on the ground for more than half an hour in the blink of an eye, but he hasn't caught any of them.
The first fled, the second fled, and the third fled......
Bai Susu felt that it was her duty to remind her, so she walked over, and just as she was about to speak, the man squatting on the ground beckoned to her and made a silent gesture to her with a mysterious face.
Bai Susu squatted down according to his words, followed his gesture and looked over, the faint lantern light shone on a black and shiny cricket in the grass, it was shaking its two powerful tentacles, and it looked majestic.
"Look at this guy, it's not ordinary at first glance, you help me carry the lantern in a while, and I'll catch it." Lu Zhiyuan lowered his voice and commanded her with a serious face.
Bai Susu glanced at him, "......, are you sure you can really catch it like this?"
"We'll outflank it left and right for a while, and we'll have nowhere to escape." After saying that, Lu Zhiyuan stuffed the lantern into Bai Susu's hand, then rolled up his sleeves and moved towards the cricket.
I saw him come out with a flower, and the speed of his movements made people marvel again and again, but the cricket was also different, I saw it easily jump to another grass with a volley, and let out two disdainful provocations.
Lu Zhiyuan snorted and said angrily, "The little cricket is actually against Lord Ben, see how I fix you later." β
Bai Susu, "......" This is not her Lord Lu, it must be a mistake.
The first battle was lost, but this did not dampen Lord Lu's enthusiasm, he looked closely, found the target and approached the past little by little.
This time the trick he used was the long-lost hungry tiger on the rivers and lakes, the subtlety of this trick is that it moves quickly and has strong lethality, of course, there are advantages and disadvantages, and the disadvantage is that the power of the counterattack should not be underestimated.
This Lord Bulu fell in front of her eyes and ate, grinning in pain, Bai Susu didn't speak for a long time, and finally walked over and said earnestly, "Second master, your trick just now is really exquisite." β
Lu Zhiyuan's face was dark, and he finally wanted to catch a cricket on a whim, but he didn't expect to be embarrassed twice in a row. He got up silently, his face gloomy, but it was dark and his face was not very visible.
"Aunt Bai, did you pant too loudly just now and scared away the little cricket." He turned his head and said.
Bai Susu looked at him in disbelief, she really couldn't believe that the person who put the basin on someone else's head like this would be her Lord Lu.
"Second master, just now I cooperated with you with bated breath, don't lie to good people." Bai Susu argued.
Lu Zhiyuan glanced at her in disbelief, "You pay attention to cooperate with me for a while, don't let this guy run away again." β
Bai Susu nodded, "I will definitely cooperate well." "Pull it down, just your two hits, it's hell if you can catch it.
According to Bai Susu, the cricket must have been very arrogant all along, because it was frightened twice in a row, it was still able to stand proudly on a weed, shaking its tentacles towards them.
Lu Zhiyuan's face was quite unbearable, and he couldn't even catch a small cricket in front of his own woman, wouldn't he be laughed at in the future.
It will already be the second half of the night, and Bai Susu is clamoring to sleep with every pore on his body, and his eyelids are drooping, but Lu Zhiyuan seems to be addicted to playing over there, and he looks like he will not stop until he reaches his goal.
Bai Susu asked tentatively, "Second Master, did you catch it, let's go back and rest?" β
Lu Zhiyuan nodded, "That's nature, let's go back if we catch it." β
As soon as he finished speaking, before he could react, he saw a small hand in front of him pinching the cricket in his hand and handing it to him, "Second master, okay, let's go back." β
Bai Susu would be really sleepy, she thought that if she didn't really love Lord Lu, she wouldn't have done such a boring thing with him in the middle of the night.
She was born in a peasant family, from childhood to adulthood, I don't know how many crickets I see, how to grasp them as complex as Lu Zhiyuan, as long as you grasp its habits, you can pinch it with a light hand.
Lu Zhiyuan glanced at her deeply, his face trembled, and silently put the cricket in her hand into the bamboo tube prepared in advance, and then the two of them went back to the Hefeng Courtyard together.
It was very late, Bai Susu changed her clothes listlessly and fell down on the bed, falling into a deep sleep, she didn't notice what an unpredictable look on the face of Lord Lu who was looking at him.
The next day, I thought I could sleep lazily, but I didn't want to be called up by Mingxiang early in the morning, and today was the day to go to Luo's goodbye. Although she didn't want to leave the quilt in every possible way, she still had to resign herself to getting up.
She kept dozing off while dressing up, and when she got to Luo's side, she heard that Luo's went out early this morning. She hurried back to her small courtyard to catch up on sleep.
I slept until noon, got up in a hurry to eat lunch, slept late at night, and always felt tired during the day, and I was not very energetic this day.
Lu Zhiyuan came back early in the evening, the two had dinner together, and read for a while at night with red sleeves, of course, Lu Zhiyuan read books, and Bai Susu looked at men.
Next, it was natural to freshen up and go to bed, lying on the bed, Bai Susu thought about such a beautiful night, should she do something. She reached out and moved to the side, her fingers touching the man's body, and sure enough, she heard the breath sink a little.
Bai Susu secretly laughed, and was about to make persistent efforts when her wrist was held, she raised her head timidly, her eyes were full of tenderness, and her voice was gentle about dripping, "Second masterβ"
Lu Zhiyuan looked at her deeply, and just as she was about to close her eyes, she heard him say, "The moonlight is pleasant tonight, we might as well go out for a walk." β
Bai Susu, "......" My ears have been bad lately, can you say it again?
In the Lu Mansion mansion, two black shadows wandered in the back garden again, and finally stopped at the place where they caught crickets last night.
"Eh, second master, do you still want to catch crickets?" Bai Susu didn't know what to say about Lord Lu's strange hobby.
"Yes." A bland sound, I can't hear the emotion.
Bai Susu sighed, feeling that this was Baba's pull, and she was pulling her to catch the crickets.
"Second master, what do you want so many crickets for?" Bai Susu asked.
"Recently, the money in the house has been tight, and I am ready to exchange it for some silver." Lu Zhiyuan's answer was serious.
Bai Susu, "......." Can you tell us the truth?
Lu Zhiyuan is very interested in catching crickets, Bai Susu, as a qualified concubine, naturally has to accompany him at this time, but what is helpless is that his skills are too poor, and he has been busy for a long time this night, and he still hasn't caught one.
Bai Susu finally felt helpless and had to roll up her sleeves to get started, only to see her hands flying left and right, and soon there were three or four crickets in the bamboo tube.
"Second master, is it enough, are you still caught?" She's really sleepy, how can anyone squat on the ground and play this without sleep in the middle of the night.
Lu Zhiyuan didn't want to let her go, he pulled her to bury her head and continue to catch, and in the blink of an eye, the sky began to brighten, and Bai Susu was surprised to find that the two of them had squatted like this for a night. When she got up, her back was so sore that she didn't dare to move for a long time, and when she returned to the yard, it was already completely bright, and the maids had already taken breakfast back, so she endured sleepiness and forcibly stuffed a bowl of porridge and two buns.
Compared with her sleepiness, Lu Zhiyuan was still in good spirits, except for a little tiredness on his face that showed the fatigue of not sleeping all night, he was probably in a better state than Bai Susu.
"Susu has worked hard, eat more, and we will continue in the evening." Lu Zhiyuan was quite considerate and put a bun in the bowl for her.
Bai Susu almost choked on a mouthful of porridge, and suddenly burst into tears, "Second master, can we change the game." β
"No, this is fun, just play this." Lu Zhiyuan is very resolute.
Bai Susu pulled the corners of her mouth, and wanted to laugh dryly, but found that she hadn't slept all night, her face was tight, and she couldn't laugh.
In the evening, Lu Zhiyuan came again, and Bai Susu saw that something was wrong, and his expression was exactly the same as yesterday. She covered her stomach and glanced at Mingxiang and Chunlan in the house, and when Lu Zhiyuan entered the door, she saw a weak woman leaning on the couch.
"Susu, what's wrong?" He asked.
Bai Susu screamed twice, and Chunlan had already answered, "Auntie's stomach hurts for a while." β
Lu Zhiyuan let out an unfathomable sigh, walked over to her and sat down, "Ask the doctor to come in and have a look?" β
"No, no, no." Bai Susu shook her head, "Chunlan is just making a fuss, but she eats too much and doesn't restrain herself, I'll just lie down." β
Lu Zhiyuan nodded, and glanced at her with a somewhat regretful expression, "Some crabs were sent outside today, and I left a few for the kitchen to boil crab porridge, but you shouldn't be able to eat it like this." β
Crab porridge, she was drooling just by imagining the fragrant and rich taste, and struggled to get up and said, "Second master, I don't seem to be too uncomfortable." β
