Chapter Ninety-Six: Lisu's Vigilance
Su Qingmo's eyes softly glanced at her son, who was burying his head in gnawing on duck wings, and said lightly, "Invite your guests in." ”
Then the door was pushed open, and a slightly thin man with a handsome face and a slightly thin figure in a dark purple robe entered.
When the man saw her, his eyes lit up obviously, but in the next second, he met a pair of big eyes that radiated a cold and cold light.
Seeing that it was just a child, Zhou Qingyun subconsciously frowned, saying that there are fewer and fewer people who dare to look directly at him so boldly, but he didn't expect that this little milk baby was not afraid of himself at all.
Zhou Qingyun glanced at the child's face again, as if he remembered something. quickly adjusted his mentality, walked in front of Su Qingmo, like an old acquaintance who met every day, looked down at her and greeted her with a gentle smile.
"I'm coming. ”
"You're here. ”
The two spoke at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled.
"Sit down, because this stinky boy was always noisy and said he was hungry just now, so I ordered the dishes in advance, you see if you need to add some other dishes, the shopkeeper of this drunken Xianglou is standing directly outside, and you can give him an order. Su Qingmo greeted warmly.
For Zhou Qingyun standing in front of him, Su Qingmo originally thought that his mood would be a little turbulent, but he didn't, and his heart was very calm at this time. It seems that the place in her heart has long been occupied by the man silently, and the smile on the corner of her mouth is even more even worse when she thinks of this.
Zhou Qingyun sat down opposite her, his eyes fell on Lisu's body, looking at his face stained with honey, and couldn't help laughing: "This is my brother Lisu, right?"
Li Su glanced at him and ignored it.
As a result, the back of the head was patted by Su Qingmo beside him: "Stinky boy, Uncle Zhou is talking to you, what kind of attitude do you have?"
Seeing this, Zhou Qingyun hurriedly said: "Don't blame him, he's still so young, he can't even say a word, I'm not an outsider, what do you care about?"
is not an outsider, and finally let Su Li look at him.
I saw that the young master pursed the corners of his lips and said mercilessly: "If Uncle Zhou is not an outsider, can he still be an insider?" But my mother-in-law already has an insider, and the insider's name is Liqing. In fact, he wanted to say that it was the master's father who left Qingqing, but he was embarrassed to say it.
As a result, as soon as his words fell, the back of his head was slapped by Su Qingmo again, although the force was not heavy, or even very light, but Li Su still felt that he had lost face, and he had lost all his face in front of an outsider. Unconvinced, he only thought that since he had lost it, he had to pick it up again.
In his ears, there was a warning voice from his mother who secretly grinded his teeth: "Lisu, if you dare to talk nonsense again, do you want to continue to eat roast duck in the future?"
Roast duck...... Li Su looked down at the unrecognizable roast duck in front of him that had been gnawed by himself, and the two small fists that had just clenched immediately became spineless and relaxed.
Well, for the sake of roast duck, in order to be able to be a child who listens to his mother's words, he will take a step back.
"Mother, the child knows that he is wrong, this Uncle Zhou, can you forgive Li Su for being unreasonable?" Li Su stared at Zhou Qingyun with his big watery eyes harmlessly.
Anyone who faces him with such big eyes will not bear to refuse any of his requests, Zhou Qingyun is no exception, not to mention, he once held this child with his own hands, for a while he only felt that his heart was soft, and his face was even more gentle, and said: "This is natural, Uncle Zhou didn't expect that we have only been separated for less than a year, and we are already so sensible from Su." ”
Li Su turned his head to look at Su Qingmo, and said with a flattering face: "Mother, Uncle Zhou has forgiven the child." The subtext of this sentence is: Can he continue to come to Zuixianglou to eat roast duck in the future?
Su Qingmo took a handkerchief and wiped his face, but the honey had dried up, and it couldn't be wiped off at all. She didn't dare to wipe it hard, for fear of hurting her son, so she lowered her head and pointed to the unrecognizable roast duck that had been gnawed by him and asked him, "Do you still eat this?"
Li Su raised his hand and stroked his bulging little belly, feeling that he couldn't hold it anymore, so he shook his head: "The child is already full." ”
Su Qingmo nodded, and ordered the shopkeeper who was guarding outside to let him fetch a basin of hot water to come in, and she was ready to give Su a clean face.
When the hot water was brought in, she seemed to think that there were still people in this room, so she turned her head to look at Zhou Qingyun who was sitting on the side, and said a little embarrassed: "You don't have to be so restrained, eat first, I have to clean this kid's face." ”
The gentle smile on Zhou Qingyun's face has always been on his face: "It's okay, you go get busy first, anyway, I'm not hungry now, and it's the same when you come back to eat together." ”
Su Qingmo nodded, and took Su to the side of the small room to wash.
After they left, Zhou Qingyun lowered his eyes and looked at the large table of delicacies in front of him, feeling happy and worried.
Happily, he didn't expect An Yun's attitude towards him to be a little closer than when they were separated before. The worry is that the more kind her heart and attitude are, the more difficult it will be for me to persuade her to go to Xiliang with me.
It's just that......
Zhou Qingyun secretly tightened his hands, no matter what, since the man was dead, he had no scruples, this time he eliminated all difficulties and followed the messenger to welcome the relatives for the Celestial Empire, so there was absolutely no reason to return empty-handed.
Looking at the dishes that were already cold in front of him, he instructed the people outside the door: "The dishes are cold, you come and serve them all down and heat them up." ”
It's February and March, and it's still cool outside. Even if the earth dragon is burned in this house, the hot tea and hot dishes that have been served for a while will be almost cold.
"Yes, Childe. Xiao Er outside the door immediately walked in when he heard the order, walked out with a plate, and after a while, a large table of dishes was removed.
When Su Qingmo came back with Lisu, all she saw was an empty table. She didn't say anything, took Lisu's little hand and sat down again.
It's just that Zhou Qingyun, who has always been very calm, explained uncomfortably under Lisu's unconfused eyes: "The dishes are a little cold, so I'll let them serve the dishes down to heat it up." ”
When Su Qingmo heard this, she glanced at him in some surprise, obviously surprised by his explanation.
Zhou Qingyun secretly wiped his sweat, picked up the teapot he had just brought in, filled the teacup in front of Su Qingmo, and poured a cup for Li Su, and finally filled it for himself.
lowered his head and took a sip, and then exclaimed: "Sure enough, it is produced by Zuixianglou, it must be a high-quality product, and this superb Biluochun is very rare in our royal family in Xiliang." ”
Su Qingmo took a sip of the teacup: "I still have some Biluochun in my house, if you like it, when you go back to Xiliang, I will ask someone to send you a pack, so that you can take it back and show it off in front of those." ”
Zhou Qingyun smiled bitterly: "You treat me as a child, and you still show off." ”
Su Qingmo didn't care, and raised her eyebrows: "What is this, if there are any good things, they should be taken out for people to see, and all their envy, jealousy, want, but can't get all the eyes are taken home, this kind of life is called wanton." ”
The smile on Zhou Qingyun's face hardened a little, and then said, "It seems that An Yun is very satisfied with the current state of life." ”
"It's natural, you don't know, with three more children around me, I'm living a fulfilling life every day now. ”
"Three?" Zhou Qingyun was a little stunned. Isn't it two? How did it become three again? Could it be that An Yun was pregnant again later? At the thought of this possibility, his heart was unhappy for a while.
Su Qingmo smiled and nodded: "Yes, you don't know, in addition to my own two children, my mother added a younger brother to me last year." ”
As soon as she thought of that younger brother, Su Qingmo felt a little chill in her back, she had never seen such a noisy child, whether he was hungry or urinating, even if he just hugged him, he never forgot to cry a few times.
Compared with her two children, Su Qingmo immediately felt that her children were even more treasures. Listening to the eldest sister, even when she was still in a coma during confinement, the two children didn't toss the eldest sister to get up all night.
Every day, I ate and slept, slept and ate, and I was very obedient.
Hearing that it was not Su Qingmo's child, Zhou Qingyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I have to go to the door to congratulate me another day." ”
Su Qingmo blinked, and then waved his hand: "No, what are you doing so politely." My father now takes my mother and brother very closely, and he didn't even hold a full moon banquet. ”
Li Su originally heard Zhou Qingyun's words, and his face also changed, but before he could say anything, he heard his mother lying with her eyes open. Seeing herself looking at her, she also glared at herself.
Li Su received the hint, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Uncle Zhou, you don't know the character of my grandfather, he can't wait to treat my grandmother and that little uncle as his heart, liver and lungs, hide them in his stomach to protect, if anyone enters his yard without his consent, he will be furious." The last time I went to see my uncle, it was because when I went into my grandfather's yard, no one saw me. As a result, my grandfather said that I had bullied my uncle, and now half a month has passed, and he has not agreed to let me step into the yard. After speaking, he also winked at Su Qingmo aggrievedly.
Su Qingmo wiped her sweat, and she began to regret bringing this stinky boy out. Although the son is doing well at this time, who did he learn from this problem of lying without blinking? When she finds out, she will definitely punish that person.
Su Qingmo kept scolding in her heart, but she never thought that when she lied just now, she still didn't blink her eyes. It's strange if Su didn't learn from her.
When Zhou Qingyun heard this, a touch of regret appeared on his face: "In this way, it's a pity that I can't come to congratulate in person." In fact, he had already inquired that the Mirror Garden, where An Yun lived now, was an industry under Liqing's name.
As for the residence of his rival, to be honest, he has no interest in it. It's just that the tacit understanding of this mother and son singing together makes him feel a little eyesore. Especially the vigilance in Lisu's eyes, he couldn't imagine that this child, who was only more than a year old, would have such a look in his eyes.
If this child was his and An Yun's child, he would be extremely proud. But Lisu is the blood and blood of An Yun and that person. Thinking of this, the original feeling of kindness towards the two children of Lisu and Limo in my heart has also disappeared.
Li Su noticed the change in his eyes, but he didn't care at all, he tilted his neck not to be outdone, and replied very generously: "It's okay, my grandfather will definitely not mind." ”
Su Qingmo glared at Su Qingyun, why did this kid face Zhou Qingyun with thorns all over his body as if he had eaten gunpowder? It seems that they don't have any hatred.
I could only turn around and smile at Zhou Qingyun.
Zhou Qingyun shook his head and chuckled, indicating that he didn't care.
At this moment, the shopkeeper was bringing in the already hot dishes.
Su Qingmo saw that the dishes were served, so she set up her own dishes and chopsticks, and said to the shopkeeper's instructions: "Please bring another bucket of rice." ”
"Yes, Princess. The shopkeeper answered and led the people down again.
When Su Qingmo and Liqing got married on the day they got married, because they lifted their hijabs, they deliberately drove into the palace on top of the carriage and under everyone's attention. made many people see Su Qingmo's face clearly. Now, if she went out, as long as she wasn't sitting in the carriage, she could see someone respectfully calling her princess.
Li Su on the side heard that he wanted a bucket of rice, and he glanced at Su Qingmo's flat abdomen: "Mother, can you eat a bucket of rice?"
Su Qingmo smiled: "Who said that I will eat alone? Besides, although it is a barrel, there are also barrels of different sizes. At this time, Xiao Er happened to come in with a pocket-sized keg. When Li Su saw the size of the bucket, he closed his mouth.
Xiao Er put the small bucket on the table, and then opened the lid on it, and the aroma of white rice wafted out.
Xiao Er first gave Zhou Qingyun a bowl, and then wanted to give it to Su Qingmo, but Su Qingmo refused. After asking him to retreat, she reached out and picked up the spoon and began to pour rice into her bowl, while saying to Lisu: "You see, this bucket can only hold two or three people at most. If the mother is hungry and has not eaten for several days, the mother will definitely be able to eat this bucket of rice. Leaving the Communist Party, you must understand that there are many things in this world that are heard as false, and seeing as believing. Of course, sometimes, what you see in your eyes is not necessarily what you want to see, and at that time you have to rely on your five senses to distinguish clearly. ”
After speaking, he turned his head and greeted Zhou Qingyun: "Qingyun, you know that I don't pay attention to those rules, you may accept this way of eating now?"
Zhou Qingyun glanced at the rice bowl full of rice in front of him, raised his eyes to look at her, and smiled gently: "I like this kind of unrestrained dining feeling, An Yun doesn't mind, and I naturally don't mind as a big man." ”
Su Qingmo smiled and nodded: "Then let's start eating." Zhou Qingyun nodded, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
Li Su looked at his every move revealing an elegant and aristocratic temperament, and couldn't help but hold back his mouth. turned her head to look at her mother-in-law, but saw that she just glanced at Uncle Zhou opposite and withdrew her gaze, and began to pick up chopsticks to eat.
Only then did Su curl the corners of his mouth. He was already full of duck legs just now, and he couldn't eat anything at this time.
I didn't want my mother to talk to Uncle Zhou who had bad intentions on the other side, so I made a little confused appearance at Su Qingmo: "What my mother said just now is so complicated, the child can't understand it." ”
Su Qingmo smiled and rubbed his hair: "You are still young, these truths that my mother said, when you grow up, you will understand." This kid is too smart, and it is rare that there are times when he is confused, Su Qingmo said that looking at his son's confused little face, a sense of accomplishment welled up in his heart.
"Hmm. Lisu took the opportunity to snuggle into her arms and said coquettishly: "Mother, the child misses his father so much." ”
Zhou Qingyun, who was picking vegetables on the other side, heard this, and made a move, he raised his eyes to look at Su Qingmo, but saw that she was rushing away from Su Yanran and smiled: "You sit down quickly, my mother hasn't eaten yet, I miss your father, maybe your father is also thinking about you in a distant place at the moment." ”
Looking at her beautiful face full of satisfied smiles, Zhou Qingyun lowered his eyes and removed the self-deprecation in his eyes.
Su Qingmo seemed to notice that he was a little snub to the guest who came from afar, so he said to Zhou Qingyun, "Is Qingyun's health better now?"
Zhou Qingyun raised his head, and the smile on his face was just right: "Well, it's much better." ”
Su Qingmo nodded: "Well, I see that your complexion is indeed much better." However, your road is more difficult, and you still need to pay more attention to yourself, after all, the body is the capital of the revolution. Otherwise, when you really come to that point, but your body collapses, then you have to cheapen others. ”
She didn't want to inquire about Zhou Qingyun's current situation, after all, the identities represented by the two were different. So now she is only concerned about his physical condition as a friend.
Zhou Qingyun looked at the concern on the face of the woman opposite, and felt that his heart began to soften and swell, and he wanted to tell her all the sadness he had encountered in the past year, but he was still forcibly pressed back when it came to his lips.
He lowered his head and secretly calmed the restlessness in his heart, nodded and said, "Well, I'll pay attention." But in my heart, I was thinking that if I really couldn't support it when I got to that point, that chair would never be cheaper for others.
"I apologize to you on behalf of Uncle Zhou for what happened to Uncle Zhou before. I had amnesia at the time and didn't remember anything. If there was no amnesia, I would never have let him treat Uncle Zhou like this. "Su Qingmo is talking about when Li Qing was in Jingli City before, he arrested Zhou Qingyun's family. This incident was also accidentally revealed by Liqing in front of her later, otherwise, she wouldn't know what happened now. Thinking of Liqing's domineering personality, she only felt annoying it in the past, but now she only thinks he is getting more and more cute.
It's just that she realized it too late, and by the time she regained her memory, the man had already ventured away to seek that glimmer of life.
Zhou Qingyun held the hand of the chopsticks, and the tighter he clenched, but in the end he still didn't say anything, just nodded to show that he didn't go to his heart.
Su Qingmo breathed a sigh of relief and began to chat with him about family life.
The two chatted for an afternoon, and then they gave up for the sake of leaving Su and constantly making trouble to go home.
Zhou Qingyun stood at the door of the Zuixiang Building, watching Su Qingmo's carriage slowly leave, he frowned and his face was gloomy and inexplicable, and only after a long time did he go down the steps and leave.
The shopkeeper, who had been keeping an eye on him in the store, was relieved to see that he had finally left, and it didn't take long for a small servant to leave the back door and run in the direction of the Mirror Garden.
In the carriage, Li Su was having an awkward quarrel with Su Qingmo, and I saw him say to Su Qingmo with a pair of red eyes: "Mother, don't you love children, do you want to leave your children and sister and go to Xiliang with that Uncle Zhou?"
"Nonsense" Su Qingmo drank him, and when he saw his son's aggrieved look of not daring to cry, his heart softened, and he could only explain: "You and your sister are the lives of your mother, how could your mother do something to leave you? Besides, your mother and that Uncle Zhou are just friends, what are you thinking about?"
Li Su pursed the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice: "However, my mother had a very happy chat with that Uncle Zhou just now, and it was dark this day, and I didn't want to go home yet." And Uncle Zhou's eyes were also very strange when he looked at his mother, and the child was so scared. After speaking, as if he remembered something, he threw himself into Su Qingmo's arms, choked up and said, "Mother, you promise the child that you will never leave the child and your sister, okay?"
