Chapter 207: Dongfeng Qia and Shen Langbian (1)
That night, Shen Yu said goodbye to Nie Peixiao seriously and lived in Yunfu. It was almost late at night when he entered the house, and he deliberately slept and ignored him, afraid that he would find some excuse to approach him and despise himself.
In the middle of the night, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the sound of the rain made it difficult for her to sleep peacefully, and then remembered that Shen Yu came out of the lake wet and didn't change her clothes, she was still a little worried, so she got up again and told the guard on duty outside to inquire about Shen Yu's news.
After a while, the nursing courtyard returned with an umbrella and replied: "My uncle entered the house when he entered the house, and he has rested in the south wing of the outer courtyard at this moment. ”
Hearing this, Izumi felt more steady, thought about it and then ordered: "You go and tell Steward Yun to let him prepare two sets of clothes and send them to my uncle early tomorrow morning." ”
The guard on duty immediately took the order, and only then did she return to the house and lie down again, but for some reason she couldn't sleep anymore, she only felt hot behind her ears. The skin on the ear that had been sipped by Shen Yu seemed to be burning with a flame, gradually spreading, until her entire cheek was hot, and the more she wanted to sleep, the more she tossed and turned.
It rained heavily all night, and I didn't close my eyes until dawn. In the early morning, the panicked heavy rain finally stopped, and she originally planned to get up late to catch up on sleep, but unexpectedly, the eldest girl of Rong Jintang heard Xue and came to pass the word, saying that Mrs. Tai invited her over for breakfast.
Izumi didn't think too much about it when she was groggy and had to wash up and get up and go to Rongjin Hall. When I arrived at the dining room, I found that in addition to Mrs. Tai sitting on the main seat, there was another person sitting - Shen Yu. The latter, apparently changing his clothes, was wearing a loose and ill-fitting blue robe, and was laughing opposite Mrs. Tai.
While Shen Yu was talking to Mrs. Tai, his eyes kept sweeping out of the door from time to time, and he saw Xiu stop in front of the door in dismay, and he couldn't help but have a narrow smile on his face, and he was handsome, and he could see that Xiu was almost gritting his teeth.
Seeing Shen Yu at this moment, I can't tell what I feel in my heart, especially when I was just slighted by him in the Star Picking Tower in King Cheng's Mansion last night, the feelings of confusion, anger, light, shame and so on are intertwined, if it weren't for Mrs. Tai here, she would almost have turned around and left.
Mrs. Tai saw that Shen Yu was gradually absent-minded when she spoke, and she also saw Izuku standing at the door, so she naturally beckoned to the door and said to Izuxiu: "Today you are a little later than usual." ”
Out of Xiu had to enter the door and sit down, calm down, and replied: "It rained last night, the road was too slippery, I walked slower, so I kept you waiting." ”
This reason is also decent, Mrs. Tai finally looked at her, looked at her twice, and asked, "Why is your face so ugly?" After asking, he didn't wait for Xiu to answer, and sighed to himself: "As soon as your heart is injured, you also lack a personal maid who knows cold and heat, so you will naturally be more affected." I'll dial one from Rongjin Hall and call you first. ”
"No need," Izuku politely refused, "A few little maids in Zhiyan Xuan have been trained, and they are all good to use now." ”
"What? Don't you like the people of my Rongjin Hall? Mrs. Tai asked with a smile.
Out of the country was frightened, and hurriedly denied: "Where, I'm afraid that you will lack manpower here...... Besides, I didn't sleep well last night, and it has nothing to do with my heart. ”
"I guess I didn't sleep well last night." Without waiting for Mrs. Tai to speak again, Shen Yu naturally took over the conversation, pretended to look at Xiu seriously, frowned at her and said, "The face is pale, the eyes are blue, the expression is wandering, and the breath is lacking in speech...... It's a symptom of sleepless nights. ”
When Izumi heard this, she glanced at Shen Yu, and when she saw that he was pretending to be serious, she also smiled back decently: "Thank you uncle for your concern, I'm fine." ”
Shen Yu frowned even more, and asked more than once: "Why didn't Mrs. sleep well last night?" Is it raining heavily and the dampness is too heavy in the house? Or are you worried about the injury of the heart? Or...... Do you have other things on your mind? Shen Yu saw that Xiu called him "uncle", and began to call him "madam" back.
Chuxiu naturally knew his ghost idea, so he also made up his mind to ignore him, and picked up his chopsticks to clip a piece of hibiscus cake for Mrs. Tai, and changed the topic: "It's still my mother who loves me, I look at the dishes and dim sum on this table today, all of them are my favorite food." ”
A smile appeared in the corner of Mrs. Tai's eyes, and she lowered her head and poked the hibiscus cake with chopsticks, and immediately a sweet lotus fragrance wafted out, which couldn't help but increase people's appetite. Mrs. Tai picked up a small half of hibiscus cake and chewed it slowly for a long time before slowly replying: "My old woman has a poor memory, I can't remember what you like to eat or not." ”
As she spoke, she took another sip of the soup, and said leisurely: "The dishes on this table are all ordered by Shen Yu." ”
As soon as these words came out, Izuku's cheeks "rubbed" on the ground, as if he could burst out of the true fire of Samadhi. She unconsciously raised her eyes to look at Shen Yu, and her eyes crashed into his deep gaze, which was burning and teasing, and suddenly made her have nowhere to escape.
Izuku hurriedly lowered his eyes again, and his appetite disappeared in an instant, leaving him in a daze, and he didn't know how to answer.
And Shen Yu seemed to be deliberately embarrassed, and picked up the topic of Fang Cai again. He coughed lightly and smiled at her: "Actually, you don't have to thank me, your favorite dishes and snacks happen to be my favorite ones too, and I didn't order them for you on purpose." ”
Hearing this, Izuku barely pulled out a smile, and replied perfunctorily without raising her head: "That's really a coincidence, it turns out that my taste is similar to that of my uncle." ”
Her cowardly expression was right in Shen Yu's arms, and the latter seemed to be sure that Xiu had something on her mind, and said again very seriously: "Eh? Madame is really in good spirits today, and she looks in a trance. If you have something in your heart, you might as well say it, and maybe I can 'share some worries' for my wife." ”
With a "snap", Chuxiu couldn't hold back any longer, she put the chopsticks on the dishes, and regardless of the presence of her subordinates, she sarcastically mocked Shen Yu with annoyance: "Although my uncle is a close disciple of Qu Shen Yi, he should also know that the sea of medicine is boundless, broad and profound." Whether the concubine has trouble sleeping and whether she has something on her mind, my uncle may not be able to guess accurately, you are still more skilled in fighting than in medicine. ”
Shen Yu saw that Xiu refuted herself like this, so she only forced her to face her mind, and smiled faintly: "If Madame questions my medical skills, you might as well let me take a pulse after dinner." Seeing a doctor is about 'looking, smelling, asking, and seeing', and I am just 'looking', so you have to give me the opportunity to try the other three and then evaluate my medical skills. ”
Looking, smelling, asking, cutting? Shen Yu is blatantly using words to belittle himself! I didn't do it, but I did! Out of Xiu gritted his teeth, and he knew that he didn't have such a thick skin as Shen Yu, so he could only take a cold attitude and refuse to answer. She lowered her head and scooped the soup with a spoon, stirring spoonful by spoon, but it was not sent to her mouth.
Izumi felt that she had reached the limit of forbearance, especially since there was a room of people serving in the dining room. Shen Yu chased and fought so hard, obviously to let everyone know that his uncle's drunkard did not mean to drink, nor did he eat at this breakfast.
The more I thought about it, the more annoyed and embarrassed I became, and my pale face became rosy with anger because of this, but it seemed to be energetic. She originally thought that she would stimulate Shen Yu in public, but she didn't answer with a cold face, and the other party should be restrained. Who knew that Shen Yu intensified, and he didn't use chopsticks to eat, he just stared straight at Chu Xiu and pursed his lips and smiled, as if he was a shameless scoundrel, but he was very handsome, and he couldn't be disgusted, so he could only hate the root of his teeth.
Shen Yu was bold and enthusiastic, out of Xiu was annoyed and shy and cold, and Mrs. Tai watched these two people flirting and scolding as if watching a play, which was a little interesting. She also knew that this daughter-in-law was still struggling to resist and didn't want to open her heart to Shen Yu, so she sighed silently in her heart, and glared at Shen Yu coldly, as if warning him to be careful and pay attention to restraint.
Sure enough, Shen Yu understood Mrs. Tai's signal, so he had to be honest, withdraw his gaze from Chuxiu, and bury his head in breakfast.
Mrs. Tai saw Xiu again, and saw that she had no appetite, and the breakfast on the table did not move, so she opened her mouth to persuade: "What? I just said that a table is full of dishes you like to eat, and now you can't eat them? ”
Izuku stared at the soup in the bowl with lowered eyes, and replied as low as a mosquito: "I don't have much appetite today." ”
"You can still be heard when you speak, but now you are so hungry that you have no voice, and you say that you have no appetite, isn't it just a lack of energy? I don't think Shen Yu is wrong. Mrs. Tai made a look of concern, squinted her eyes and said to Xiu: "After dinner, let Shen Yu take the pulse for you, and you don't need to ask a doctor again, 'Look, Hear, Ask, Cut' will be used again, maybe he will cure you." ”
These words are not leaky, and there is no lack of ridicule, but Mrs. Bisheng has a serious appearance, and she doesn't seem to be joking.
However, Izuku immediately became at a loss, hurriedly drank two mouthfuls of soup, and replied: "Thank you mother for your concern, don't bother my uncle, I'll go back and make up for sleep." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was another "click", and this time it was Mrs. Tai's turn to put down the chopsticks, but instead of speaking to Izuku, she said to a room of people: "You all retreat." ”
Every time Mrs. Tai used this expression to retreat from someone, Chuxiu knew that she was going to reprimand herself. Sure enough, after Chi's mother and a room of maids left, Mrs. Tai immediately straightened up her face and scolded Chuxiu: "What do you mean by a 'aunt'?" I called him 'Shen Yu', didn't you hear it? ”
Chuxiu naturally heard it, and she also wanted to deliberately keep a distance from Shen Yu, so she would call him "uncle". Izuku looked at Mrs. Tai inexplicably, wondering why she was so picky about herself in her title.
Seeing that Chu Xiu looked confused, Mrs. Tai snorted coldly and said again: "Everyone is here, I didn't ask you, Shen Yu moved in last night, why didn't you come to report me?" When did you not even know this little bit of courtesy? ”
