Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!

"No, it's been a long time since the earthquake happened, and it won't happen again, if you don't worry, I'll take your family to the city tomorrow." Lu Zhiyuan thought that she was worried about her relatives, because Bai Susu's hometown Xiaoqingshan Village was just west of Anyang.

Bai Susu was moved and anxious in her heart, moved that Lu Zhiyuan could think of her, but she really didn't worry about her family, Xiaoqingshan Village was still far away from the earthquake area, and she remembered very well that she didn't even hear a sound in her own house, and it was very safe.

What she is most anxious about now is how to make Lu Zhiyuan more vigilant and be able to take precautions in time.

"Second master, when I was in my hometown, I heard from the old people in the village that after the earthquake settles down, it is likely that it will be just an illusion, and there may be a larger area of tremors." Bai Susu took his hand, and his palms were already sweating, "I've been having nightmares lately, dreaming that all the houses in the west have collapsed. ”

"Nonsense!" Lu Zhiyuan scolded, and after saying that, he noticed that his tone was a little heavier, thinking that Aunt Bai was worried about him, and his voice slowed down a little, "Don't listen to their alarmist words, the earthquake has passed, and it won't happen again." ”

"But......" Bai Susu still wanted to say something, his eyes touched Lu Zhiyuan's sinking face, so he had to turn to something else, "Second master, I want to do some small business." ”

These words directly made Lu Zhiyuan stunned, and soon there was a smile on his face, saying that it was more like teasing, "What are you going to do?" ”

Bai Susu thought, "I haven't thought about it yet, so I'll ask you first." ”

Lu Zhiyuan looked at her funny, "What kind of business are you doing, tell me if you don't have enough money." ”

Bai Susu knew that he had his own private property, which was managed by a special person, so he didn't have to take his usual expenses from Roche.

"But I can't always be like this, second master, just like the thing you bought a quilt this time, I can't help you with anything, and I also want to share your worries when I encounter something." Bai Susu is telling the truth, she lived a life of clothes and food to open her mouth, and she didn't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt were expensive.

Although I haven't grown much in this life, I still want to be a little useful.

Lu Zhiyuan saw the gloom in her eyebrows, and finally didn't agree, "There is no shortage of the little silver you earn at home." ”

Bai Susu felt like a failure.

Lu Zhiyuan sat in her room for a while and left, he didn't go back to the backyard for many days, so it was reasonable to go to see Luo.

Bai Susu wanted to ask, did he still come back, but he swallowed back when the words came to his mouth.

"Second master walk slowly." She was delivered to the door, but stood still and refused to enter the house.

Lu Zhiyuan looked back, and finally smiled at her, "Vinegar is like this, what can I do with you." ”

Bai Susu opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

Lu Zhiyuan turned around and left.

Luo sat in the room and looked left and right in the mirror, still a little uneasy, "Qingguo, do you see if my hair bun is a little messy?" ”

Qingguo looked at the meticulous bun when she heard this, but she still took the comb and gently combed it for her, "Madam, now you see, it's not messy at all." ”

Luo Shi smiled at this time, and stood in front of the mirror and looked left and right at his clothes, looking very uneasy, "Isn't this purple too old-fashioned, do you think the second master won't like it?" ”

"Purple is luxurious, it's in line with your identity." Qinghua stepped forward and praised with a smile, "Madam, you are naturally beautiful, you used to be unpleasant, so you didn't look energetic, but now it's good, naturally you look good in anything." ”

Roche couldn't help but laugh, "Look at what you said. ”

"My madam, you are impeccable everywhere, the second master will like it." Mama Tu, who happened to come in with a plate, answered the sentence, walked in, and said to Luo, "The freshly made rose dew, Mrs. takes a sip, and she will be full of fragrance when she speaks." ”

Luo's eyes moved, he hurriedly reached out and picked up the bowl, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed, a faint rose fragrance came, a very elegant taste, not strong or light, just right, lowered his head and drank it gently, and immediately left his mouth fragrant.

......

Lu Zhiyuan looked at the noble woman standing in front of him, with delicate makeup painted on her face, she seemed a little uneasy, and her two hands kept stirring the handkerchief in her hand.

"I've seen the second master." Roche bowed, and his manners and movements were just the right amount of elegance.

Lu Zhiyuan walked in and stretched out his hand to help her, "My family, you don't need these false courtesies, get up." ”

Luo Zhi stood up along his hand, and when he saw that his eyebrows were gentle, his heart was relieved, and a smile was already on his face, "Second master, dinner has been prepared, let's eat first." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Zhiyuan's brows furrowed impatiently, but looking at Luo's expectant eyes, he nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Moving to the dining room, the maids had already prepared their meals.

Lu Zhiyuan remembered the unpleasant memory of the last time in his heart, he was in a bad mood, and the food was not fragrant.

Everything was basically moved, and the chopsticks were put in after only half of the rice, "I'm full, you use it slowly." ”

Luo was a little uneasy in his heart, and he hurriedly put down his chopsticks, "Second master, are you angry with me?" ”

"No, I'm full." Lu Zhiyuan said lightly.

He didn't feel bad before, but now he found that there was always a kind of restraint when eating with Luo, and he was usually annoyed by a lot of things in the yamen, and when he returned to the backyard, he wanted to simply live a comfortable life.

But on Luo's side, he felt tired even after eating, and he couldn't help but think of Aunt Bai, whose eyes lit up when he saw the meat, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a faint smile.

After eating, he didn't leave, and stayed in the courtyard of Roche at night.

In the past, he often lived here, but at that time, Luo's health was not good, so they often slept in separate rooms, and now although she is in good health, Lu Zhiyuan still naturally went to his study.

Roche opened his mouth and wanted to keep it, but when the words came to his mouth, he really couldn't say the words to keep people.

Lu Zhiyuan looked at Luo Shi and sighed in his heart, he didn't see the prayer in Luo Shi's eyes, before coming here, he had already reminded himself that Luo Shi was his wife, she was not in good health in the past so she couldn't have sex together, and now she should stay.

But for some reason, as soon as this idea came to him, a voice in his heart immediately stopped him.

I can't help but see Aunt Bai's face in front of me. Aunt Bai's stupid thing must be uncomfortable.

......

Bai Subaba waited until the moon was empty, she actually knew in her heart that it was right for Lu Zhiyuan to go to the main courtyard, but she still hoped that maybe Lu Zhiyuan would come back suddenly. But as the night got deeper, she couldn't even deceive herself.

Lu Zhiyuan came over at noon the next day, and when Bai Susu saw him, he always felt that he couldn't lift his energy, and he was distracted most of the time when he spoke.

"I'll pry open your head to see what's inside, and I'll be in a daze all day long." Lu Zhiyuan said a few words, and when he looked up, he found that her eyes were blank at all, and she was not listening, and she was suddenly a little annoyed.

Bai Susu was stunned, her heart was full of bitterness, and her voice was low, "The concubine's brain is so stupid, and it is naturally all slurry inside, which is not as smart as you." ”

Lu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows, obviously just joking, this is still more energetic than him, as soon as he remembered that he rejected his wife for an aunt last night, he felt that he had been let down all his heart, and he was complaining.

For a few days, Lu Zhiyuan stayed in the main courtyard overnight, Bai Susu's days went on as usual every day, but her heart seemed to be holding back a fire, especially every time Lu Zhiyuan went to the main courtyard, he would always come to her to sit here for a long time the next day, which made her feel uncomfortable.

"Auntie, don't wait, the second master is still ...... tonight" Qing Niang saw her sitting without speaking, and persuaded in a low voice.

As soon as Bai Susu looked up, she saw Qingniang and Chunlan who were full of worries, she was in a depressed mood these days, and even Chunlan, who had always been lively, had not talked much recently.

"I'm fine, let's sleep." She went back to the house after saying that.

Chunlan and Qingniang glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but be full of worry.

Bai Susu was lying on the bed, covering her mouth and still crying, not knowing what to do.

I cried until I fell asleep, and the next day I got up with two swollen walnut-like eyes. After breakfast, I heard that Zhu Ping was coming.

Zhu Ping came on order, and Lu Zhiyuan said that he was going to take her out.

In the past, Bai Susu must have been happy when he heard that he was going out, but he really didn't want to move at all.

But Zhu Ping said again, it was Lu Zhiyuan's order, and Aunt Bai had to carry it even if she carried it.

She had no choice but to change her outfit and put on a thick cloak because of the cold outside.

When he went out, a carriage was waiting at the door, and the man was standing on the side of the carriage, talking to the guard next to him, his expression was very serious, his brows were wrinkled, and when he saw her come out, he looked at her as if he was out of nowhere.

got into the car, Bai Susu didn't know where she was going, anyway, she didn't care, so she simply took out a snack from the burden to relieve her boredom.

The rickety carriage walked for about half an hour before finally stopping.

When Bai Susu got out of the car, he saw a dilapidated house, and couldn't help frowning, and his eyes subconsciously looked at the man standing beside him, "This is?" ”

Lu Zhiyuan's eyes were deeply invisible, he looked ahead and said, "The area with the worst earthquake. ”

Today, Lu Zhiyuan originally planned to spare a day to accompany Bai Susu to relax, but he didn't want to receive the following report in the morning, this piece had a small shock last night, although there were no casualties, but he still decided to come over to take a look to rest assured.

Lu Zhiyuan went to the front to visit the victims, Bai Susu was waiting alone on the side of the car, there was a slight noise behind her, and as soon as she turned her head, she saw a little boy of seven or eight years old on the side of the carriage reaching into the car.

"What are you doing here?" She opened her mouth and directly scared the little boy's face, and she wanted to run away, but who thought that he was too short, half lying on the car, and sat on the ground directly with his hands loosened.

The pain made his face ugly but he didn't cry, Bai Susu hurriedly helped him up, patted the dust on his body, and said softly, "What were you doing just now?" ”

"Don't hit me, don't hit me." The little boy was obviously frightened, and looked at her with a frightened expression, "I don't dare anymore." ”

Only then did Bai Susu notice the beef he was holding in his hand, this was the snack Chunlan had put on her before she went out, and she had just eaten half of it and had no appetite and put it aside.

Beef jerky is a kind of dried meat made of beef marinated and air-dried with seasonings, it is the way to eat in the northwest, Bai Susu happened to know a northwest person before, and learned such a method, in the autumn, the method was simply said, and the kitchen was improved, and a lot was done at that time, just as a small snack that is usually fine.

"Hungry?" Bai Susu looked at his dress, guessing that it should be the nearby victims, afraid that he would be scared again, and his voice was softer, "Don't be afraid, I won't beat you." ”
