Chapter 36: The First Appearance of the Red Face Causes Turmoil (3)
In the eyes of Izuxiu, Yun Ci has always been moody, and the only time he has shown his majesty is in front of the Ming family's father and son. At the end of the day, it's for yourself. Then this time the face of Yun Ci sank like water......
Izuxiu hadn't figured it out yet, but seeing that Yun Zhong had already said goodbye to Yun Ci, he walked out of the study with a smile. When he passed by her, he also said to her quite meaningfully: "The girl is worthy of being the person that Hou Ye likes, and she is delicate and clear." ”
This sentence was said without a beginning or an end, which made Izuku not know what to do. But she also praised herself, so she bowed down and saluted, which was regarded as a word of thanks. Yun Zhong didn't say anything more, and left with a smile.
Only then did she knock lightly on the door and step in. Yun Ci's face was still dark, and he changed his smile and words to her in the past, with the calm of the eve of the storm, which was difficult and panicked.
I didn't dare to ask, so I had to grind the ink with my sleeves. As soon as he poured the water into the inkstone, Yun Ci suddenly said, "Don't worry, I have something to ask you." His eyes were calm but a little sharp, as if he wanted to see through what she was thinking: "Early this morning, the second brother came to beg for help." ”
The second master cloud got up to beg people? Izuku was shocked in his heart, and he could already guess who Yun Ci was referring to. She pursed her lips, anxiously awaiting his next words.
"I didn't say yes." Yun Ci said bluntly: "Although the second brother is unromantic, he respects me, the eldest brother. I rejected him, and I guess he won't bother you again. ”
When I heard this, my heart was suddenly relieved.
"In the future, stay away from him, have nothing to do, and don't go out of your way." Yun Ci sighed softly: "Beauty seems to be a burden to you." ”
This is simply out of Xiu's heart. A beautiful woman is always difficult to escape the fate of her blushing face. To put it simply, it is because the skin is so beautiful that it charms sentient beings and attracts the hearts of too many men, so that they lose themselves in the crowd of suitors, and they can't tell which is true and which is false.
If you look ugly, you may be able to see the suitor's mind more accurately.
Thinking of this, Izuku also sighed lightly, with infinite emotion.
It's just that he lost his mind for a moment, and when he regained his thoughts, Izumi saw Yun Ci's gaze fall on him again, his eyes were gloomy and he didn't know what to think, and suddenly asked again: "Have you seen Yun Zhong's nephew?" ”
Yun Zhong's nephew? Izuku remembered that scholar, and at a young age, he became the steward of the rice industry in the Huainan area. But that day, the cloud manager clearly went to change the account book quietly, for fear of Yun Ci's blame. If he told the truth to Yun Ci at the moment, he would look like a villain suing behind his back.
However, how did Yun Ci know about this? Thinking about it, it must have been said by the second master Yunqi. When he bumped into himself that day, he saw the account book!
Thinking of this, Izuku had already begun to study ink, thinking about how to perfunctory the past with Yun Ci. After a while, he dipped his ink and wrote: "I met Yun Guan on the road. ”
Yun Ci looked at the answer on the paper, didn't ask any more questions, was silent for a moment, and said, "I will look at the account book today, and it is enough to have a bamboo shadow to serve." ”
It's a shame. Izuku saw that Yun Ci was in a bad mood today, but he couldn't tell if it was for Yun Qi's pleasing business. She wanted to ask, but she was afraid that she would be amorous, so she bowed and retired without a word, and returned to the courtyard where she lived. A few maids were not there, only the door of the room was open.
Chuxiu wanted to greet her, but the idea just arose, but seeing that Qianyun had already walked out of the door, he said, "Butler Fang Caiyun came over to leave a message, so that you have time to go to him." "The words are light, not warm, and not distant.
No wonder the door of Qianyun's house was open, and she was waiting to pass a message to herself. Chuxiu bowed to her to express his gratitude; The other party also bowed slightly, and then returned to the house.
Izumi had heard a faint mention of the shallow rhyme before, so she didn't take her coldness to heart, and remembered that Steward Yun had something to do with her, so she hurried away.
Yun Zhong, as the steward of the Yun Mansion, can no longer be regarded as a single person, I heard that he was the companion of the old marquis in his early years, so there are face-facing subordinates in this mansion, such as Bamboo Shadow, who all call him "Uncle Zhong".
Yun Zhong has a separate courtyard in Yun Mansion, although the scale is much smaller than that of the serious masters, but in the end it is also a separate courtyard, and there are maids and servants who are specially driven.
When I came to Yun Zhong's residence, I didn't expect that Yun Steward, who had a one-sided relationship, was also there. At this time, shouldn't he go back to Huainan to take care of business? Izuku pressed the doubts in her heart and knocked on the door gently.
When the uncle and nephew saw that it was Xiu, they both looked extremely enthusiastic, especially the cloud manager, and there was a suspicious flush on their faces.
"Miss Xiu came so early, did Master Hou let you out?" Yun Zhong asked with a smile first.
Izuku smiled and nodded.
Yun Zhong was overjoyed, and hurriedly went to see his nephew, and saw him standing in place at a loss, and smiled at Chuxiu: "My nephew is also a young talent, and he is in charge of Huainan's fundamental livelihood outside, and he has never been stage frightened. Only when you see someone like a girl will you be speechless. ”
Izumi only smiled when she heard this. When people say a few polite words, she can still hear them.
At this time, Yun Zhong turned to Yun Guan again, and said, "You go and see what your aunt is busy with, and I will say a few words to the girl alone." ”
Steward Yun nodded again and again, and went to the backyard as if he had fled.
Yun Zhong saw that his nephew was far away, so he looked at Chu Xiu meaningfully, and asked with a smile again: "Master Hou agreed?" ”
Agree with what? Izuku was confused.
"At this point, shouldn't the girl serve the pen and ink in the pure heart fast? Since Master Hou let you out to see the old man, he must have agreed. Yun Zhong muttered to himself.
Izuku was even more puzzled.
Yun Zhong looked at Chuxiu's appearance, and thought she was ashamed, so he smiled again: "Girl, don't worry, my nephew is young and promising, and he won't treat you badly in the future." ”
Izuku was finally stunned. What does this mean......
At this point, Yun Zhong saw the abnormality of Xiu, frowned and asked, "What?" Hou Ye didn't mention it to the girl? ”
"What?" Izuku made a lip shape.
Seeing this, Yun Zhong pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "My nephew has been suffering from lovesickness since he saw the girl once, and he begged the old man to go to the Hou Ye to ask for a marriage. The old man couldn't resist his nephew's thoughts, so he went to Qingxinzhai this morning to ask to see the Hou Ye......"
Steward Yun said something later, but he didn't listen to half a word, and he was overwhelmed by the sentence "asking for marriage" in his heart. No wonder Yun Ci had been looking unhappy this morning, and asked himself if he had seen Steward Yun's nephew......
I see.
At this moment, I understood the cause and effect, and I felt very uncomfortable in my heart. What does this mean? The second master came to ask for himself, and he confessed it; Why didn't Steward Yun mention it to himself?
Do you think it's not worth mentioning? Still can't make up your mind? Izuku remembered the noncommittal silence of Yun this morning, perhaps...... He was indeed considering.
When Yun Ci persuaded himself to come to Fangzhou, he once said a sentence that Izumi always remembered - "I can teach you poetry and songs, and settle accounts as a housekeeper." I'll find a good home for you in the future. ”
It turns out that this is not an empty phrase. The bookkeeper, he taught; Find a good in-law, and realize it so quickly.
Even if this family affair was not actively sought by Yun Ci, if it weren't for Yun Fu's face, how could she be a dumb girl, how could she get the favor of Yun Zhong's nephew?
Yun Steward is young, and has become the Mi Hang Steward in Huainan District, in charge of 72 rice shops in six counties of a state and thousands of acres of fertile land, this position is not just nepotism can be competent, presumably his ability is also recognized by Yun Ci.
Analyzing it so secretly, I feel that the taste is even more difficult to distinguish. It seems that he has knocked over the five-flavor bottle by mistake, and the sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty are all in my heart. She could feel her smile reluctantly, but she didn't know if Steward Yun could see it.
"Don't worry, Miss Izumi, my nephew is very reliable, and he is not a light person. His father died early and entrusted him to the old man, and he didn't worry about his family affairs in the past two years, but he didn't look down on any of them. When I met you, a girl, I was enlightened. ”
Steward Yun tried his best to persuade Chu Xiu, and said with a smile: "The old man patted his chest and said, my nephew's character and ability are all speechless. When a girl marries, whether the throat disease can be cured or not, he will treat you very well. Since the girl can win the favor of the Hou Ye and bring it back from Fangzhou thousands of miles, she must be a good person, and the old man also praises her nephew's vision! ”
At this time, Izuku couldn't listen to Steward Yun's words for a long time, and only thought about Yun Ci's thoughts. Will he say yes? Why didn't he mention it to himself? Do you feel that you are not worthy of cloud management? Or is the cloud manager not worthy of himself?
Thinking about it, Izuku's heart became anxious again, and there was anxiety in the anxiety, and she suffered for a while.
Yun Zhong has managed the internal affairs of Yunfu for decades, and he has already cultivated a shrewd eye. He saw that Xiu had been silent, so he asked with a tentative smile: "Since Master Hou didn't mention it to the girl, the old man dared to ask first, is the girl willing?" ”
When Izumi heard this, the word "no" almost blurted out, but at this moment, Steward Yun went back from the backyard and said to Yun Zhong: "Uncle, nephew wants to say a few words alone with Miss Izuxiu." ”
Yun Zhong glanced at Xiu and saw that she had no objection, so he left with a smile, letting the two young people contact their feelings on their own.
Seeing that Xiu's expression was faint, Qingyan was unmatched, and his eyes showed two points of obsession, and he was already a little incoherent: "The girl is not strange for the abruptness...... It was after the first meeting that day...... It's going to be good for the girl in the next place. ”
Izuku still didn't react, she thought for a moment, dipped her fingers in the dew on the leaves, and slowly wrote on the stone table in the courtyard, "I'm a mute. ”
This can be regarded as a polite refusal, but Steward Yun was not discouraged, but explained: "Don't worry, I'm not a person who talks much." ”
Hearing this, Izumi frowned slightly, so she had to write clearly: "I'm not worthy." ”
"Why?" Steward Yun frowned when he saw the words, and asked urgently: "What is not worthy, you are the person next to Master Hou, and in our eyes you are like a fairy......"
Fairy? Izuku laughed self-deprecatingly.
Steward Yun looked at her like this, thought for a long time, and suddenly suddenly had a little surprise: "The girl is ...... Well, I know this in my heart, the girl is so beautiful, put it next to the Hou Ye......"
There was no beginning or end to what he said, and Izumi didn't understand it. She looked at Steward Yun in confusion, saw him lower his head again, and stumbled and continued: "There is also a girl in the next house...... The girl is the big girl next to Master Hou, she must be ......"
Before Yun Guan finished speaking, Chu Xiu already understood, he thought that he and Yun Ci had a skin-to-skin relationship......
In an instant, Izumi felt ashamed and indignant. Although she was born in the dust and is indeed unclean, but Yun Ci is so heavenly and bright, how can she make people so defiled!
Thinking of this, Izuku was so angry that his face turned red, and he almost had a seizure.
Seeing her face, Steward Yun mistakenly thought that she was poked at the center of the matter and was surprised, and hurriedly confessed his heart: "Don't worry, girl, marry a wife and seek talent, I really admire the girl, those things don't matter......"
As he spoke, he reached out to pull out Xiu's soft wattle, wanting to comfort her. Izuku was caught off guard by his hands, and was even more ashamed. Just as he was about to break free, he heard a voice from the gate of the courtyard: "Miss Xiu." ”
Izuku looked back at the voice, but saw Zhuying's embarrassed expression and coughed lightly. In front of him, Yun Ci was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at him coldly and deeply.
