6. Place the bath barrel
Gu Ruobai put down Xiao Yu'er casually, rubbing his eyebrows with great annoyance, what was wrong with him, is it a little abnormal for him to be like this?
He had never felt this way, a feeling of wanting to protect others, he had always been cold and ruthless, he was used to looking at things in the world coldly, and he had never thought about who he wanted to protect, but at that moment just now, looking at his painful expression, he really wanted to reach out and smooth his eyebrows, and even ......
"Hmm...... Go away......"
Yu'er only felt that her face was very itchy, fluffy, and soft.
"Hmm......"
Yu'er turned over again, she opened her eyes slightly in a daze, and only felt a white thing dangling in front of the tip of her nose. Her eyes widened instantly, and a spirit sat up, she subconsciously covered her chest, and fortunately, she was still dressed.
Yu'er breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart, but as soon as she turned her head, she saw Gu Ruobai sitting in the room, and Yu'er's little face instantly turned into a red glow, it's too bad, it's just the first day when she arrives at her benefactor's house, she doesn't care about falling asleep, and she is here to repay her kindness, which is a big mess.
"Uh...... That one...... Benefactor, you're back? β
Yu'er got up very embarrassed and sat opposite Gu Ruobai.
"Hmm."
After saying that, there was silence again, and the whole room could only hear the sound of small fish scurrying around, and Yu'er felt that her breathing became tense.
"The ......"
The two opened their mouths at the same time, and the atmosphere became more subtle.
"You speak first!"
Yu'er couldn't wait to slap herself in the mouth, because Gu Ruobai also said the same thing, "Benefactor, you say it first!" β
"Call me Gu Ruobai." Gu Ruobai felt upset when she heard her benefactor.
"Huh? Are you Gu Ruobai? When Yu'er heard this name, the scene overheard in the wing room that day came to her mind, and her face was full of surprise, he was Gu Ruobai? That Gu Huangzi?
"How?"
It turns out that the key person in the wing room is him, could it be that they have some kind of festival? Yu'er hesitated for a while, but decided to tell Gu Ruobai about it.
"Brother Gu, there's one thing I don't know if I should tell you."
"It doesn't hurt."
"You must be careful during this time, because someone wants to harm you."
"Oh? What do you mean by that? β
"Hmm... Do you know the Lingwen Officer? Gu Ruobai's dark eyes tightened, and sure enough, Ling Yu was helping the miscellaneous behind his back
"In short, Brother Gu, you have to be careful." Yu'er's face was worried, this big brother Gu doesn't look like a bad person, why is there an enemy everywhere?
"Goo-"
Yu'er's stomach screamed very inappropriately, and she was caught off guard and hurriedly covered it, so ashamed that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to get into.
"It's time to eat, too." Yu'er looked up in surprise, her eyes flashing with light.
"The little fish can't help but be hungry." After he finished speaking, he got up and walked out of the room, but he didn't even feel Gu Ruobai, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Yu'er rolled her eyes, daring to love that this cat can't be hungry, how good this surnamed Gu is to this cat
Yu'er bent down to pick up the little fish, the little fish kept rubbing in her arms, and kept calling like a coquette, no wonder this Gu Ruobai spoiled it so much, it was simply a coquettish and clingy little goblin.
After a while, a few maids entered the guest room with food, watching the plates of dishes come in one after another, Yu'er was a little flustered: "Enough is enough, I can't eat so much!"
"Yu Gongzi, the master said that he would come over to eat together later." The maid at the head was smiling, and Yu'er didn't want to say anything more, so she had to sit still and wait for Gu Ruobai.
"Meowβ"
Xiaoyu'er kept circling around her feet, as if she was hungry, Yu'er squatted down and gently touched its fur, "Hungry, little gluttonous cat, come, while your master hasn't come yet, I'll let you eat quietly, you are not allowed to tell your master." β
After saying that, he held it in his arms, clipped a piece of fish tail and gave it to it, watching it eat so deliciously, not to mention how happy she was.
"Eat slowly, we won't tell your master that he won't know what you stole from him!" Yu'er was afraid that the little fish would choke.
"Ahem......"
Originally, Gu Ruobai didn't want to make a sound, before he entered the guest room, he saw Yu'er clipping the tail of the fish to eat the little fish, he was going to stop it, but when he saw the gentle eyes that were about to overflow, he couldn't bear it.
Yu'er couldn't help but lose her mind when she saw Gu Ruobai standing outside the door, the loose jade-colored white robe was draped over him lazily and comfortably, the long hair behind the ears was tied back casually, and a few strands of fine black long hair hung down in front of her forehead.
His crooked eyebrows seemed to be smiling, his handsome face was full of tenderness, he seemed to have just bathed, Yu'er's heart instantly beat faster, as if she had been hit by something, that feeling made her lower her head instantly, she was afraid that he would see her panic at this time.
"Brother Gu, you're here." Only then did Yu'er remember, "Brother Gu, you sit ......"
"The little fish have their own food." Gu Ruobai picked up a pair of chopsticks unhurriedly and said lightly.
"Huh? It...... Can't you eat these things? Yu'er thought it was a little incredible, why can't a cat eat fish?
"That bowl is what it's supposed to eat." Gu Ruobai glanced at it lightly, it was a bowl of lightly colored things, as if many things were mixed together, looking at the little fish that had already eaten the tail of the fish, Yu'er couldn't help but feel a little sorry for it, no wonder she ate it so deliciously just now, it turned out that she had never eaten it before.
"Is that the little fish sick? Why eat things that don't taste good? β
"It can't eat salty things." Gu Ruobai chewed slowly and gracefully, her gestures were full of dignity, Yu'er sighed in her heart, and the food was like chewing wax.
Gu Ruobai looked at him with a sad face, and felt a little unbearable: "A friend of mine said that eating salty food in cats will hurt its body." What Gu Ruobai didn't expect was that he also explained, and he really felt that he was getting more and more strange.
When Yu'er heard this, her gloomy eyes immediately brightened, not letting it eat it was for its good health, it turned out to be like this, and she was sad for a while.
Gu Ruobai observed this kid quietly, looking at his face that turned from cloudy to sunny, and his heart actually became happy.
"From tomorrow onwards, you will have to take care of the little fish."
"Play with it."
"Bathe it every day."
"Prepare it for food at regular intervals."
"Watch it, don't let it get me into trouble."
β¦β¦
Gu Ruobai said a string, Yu'er only felt that her head was buzzing, and she wanted to cry without tears, wouldn't it be more tiring to take care of a cat than taking care of a person, she silently wailed in her heart.
But this surnamed Gu didn't mean to stop at all, Yu'er gritted her teeth, for Gu Ruobai's sake of saving her, she reluctantly served a cat!
"Alright, you can rest, little fish, come here."
Gu Ruobai didn't eat a few bites, then fished the little fish in his arms and prepared to leave.
"Hey......"
Yu'er quickly grabbed his embroidered robe: "That...... Do you have a ...... Where can I take a bath? β
Yu'er looked at the spacious guest room very shyly, but she didn't see a bathtub or anything, she was used to bathing every day, but she was embarrassed to tell Gu Ruobai, after all, she was still a woman dressed as a man.
"You can bathe in the cold room." Gu Ruobai's face was expressionless.
"Huh? Forget it......" Yu'er immediately became depressed.
"I can also bathe in my room."
"No, no, no!" Yu'er hurriedly waved her hand, forget it, go to your room to wash, it's better not to wash it, it's better to sneak back to the Spring Building!
After Gu Ruobai left, Yu'er was about to take off the men's clothes, but there was a knock on the door
"Who?"
"Yu Gongzi, let's set up a bath bucket for you."
Outside the door was the voice of the housekeeper, Yu'er immediately got dressed, only to see that the huge wooden barrel was carried in by a few subordinates, placed behind the screen, and a few little maids carried steaming hot water.
"This is ......" Yu'er was very puzzled, "This is what the master ordered." Steward Xu replied.
Yu'er couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart, and suddenly felt that this big brother Gu was also quite meticulous and considerate.
Yu'er sprinkled a few petals in the bathtub, and the rising heat fumigated the red petals, and the room was instantly filled with the fragrance of flowers. Yu'er slowly sank into the water, the dense water vapor made her eyes more and more misty, and sure enough, she still liked the hot bath the most.
Yu'er leaned against the bucket, thinking that Gu Ruobai personally ordered someone to place the bath bucket for her, her heart was as sweet as eating honey, and her little face was also dyed with a touch of red, it must be that this hot water is too hot, otherwise how can she feel that this little face is hot and tight?
