Chapter 224: Red Sleeves Add Vegetables
Xin Yi opened his mouth, and just as he wanted to ask, Sun Huai sighed, slowly bypassed Fu Jiuqu, and tiptoed out.
"Little lady. Let's wait for the master to sleep for a while. He was exhausted. ”
Outside the curtain, Sun Huai's eyes finally widened, and the unique expression of a smile on his face looked particularly friendly today.
"Where do you guess the master got here?"
Xin Yi didn't want to ask, but Grandpa Sun handed over all the words, and she could only climb up: "Where?" ”
Sun Huai smiled: "At home." ”
Xin Yi: "......"
I thought that Sun Huai would say that Fu Jiuqu was very tired and had traveled a long way, but who expected it to be such a sentence?
She chuckled lowly, "Father-in-law is really humorous. ”
Sun Huai's eyes narrowed, revealing a little unfathomable smile, "These days, the eldest princess has changed several cooks, and today she specially prepared a meal, and the master didn't even eat a bite, so he hurried to the pharmacy after saying goodbye." Alas, the heart of our master, thinking about the little lady. ”
Xin Yi's mouth pursed slightly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
The father-in-law laughed. The king of the county is just trying to be fresh. Tired of eating big fish and meat, who doesn't like to eat a few bites of porridge and side dishes? ”
Sun Huai laughed awkwardly, seeing that Zhang Niangzi's expression was indifferent, he wanted to say something more, but he took care of his little money, and was afraid that the horse's fart would be slapped on the horse's leg, so he smiled stupidly and shut up.
On the recliner under the eaves, the eyelashes of the king of Guangling County trembled slightly.
After a while, he lazily called: "Sun Huai." ”
Sun Huai belched and walked over, "Master, you're awake." ”
Fu Jiuqu snorted and said lightly: "Go and urge Mrs. Zhang, is the meal ready?" ”
Xin Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Fortunately, Fu Jiuqu didn't hear Sun Huai's words, otherwise he would have died.
"Alright, alright." Xin Yi walked over with a smile, "I thought the king of the county was asleep, and I was just about to take it to the stove to warm ......"
Fu Jiuqu's body was covered with a piece of wind, revealing only a handsome face, and his eyes were as dark as an abyss.
He stared at the smile on Xin Yi's face, slowly sat up, and turned his neck, "I slept so deeply." ”
Sun Huai's eyes turned left and right, looked at this, looked at that, and said smartly: "Mrs. Zhang specially made the dishes that my lord loves to eat......"
"You go down." Fu Jiuqu lowered his face, as if he was displeased: "You don't have to talk too much in front of you, it will annoy people." ”
Sun Huai chuckled in his heart.
Finished.
Sure enough, what he just said made the master hear.
"Yes." Sun Huai retreated and turned to the gate of the courtyard, far away, so that Fu Jiuqu would not see him, but his ears were attached to the wall, and he was paying attention to the master's movements all the time.
In this vast space, there were only two people left, Xin Yi saw Fu Jiuqu's eyes staring at him without turning, sighed secretly, and walked over resignedly to serve him food and vegetables.
"The king of the county doesn't like to do it himself, so why should he drive away Grandpa Sun."
Fu Jiuqu looked at the appearance of the little lady's red-sleeved vegetables, and smiled with satisfaction: "Master just annoys his mouth." ”
Xin Yi snorted and smiled lightly, "Grandpa Sun just loves to worry about it, and the protector is anxious." ”
Fu Jiuqu's gaze swept over Xin Yi's face faintly, "Did you see that he protected it?" ”
Xin Yi shook his head and smiled, and changed the topic, "Just make a few dishes casually, and the county king will eat some." ”
"Hmm." Fu Jiuqu said lightly: "You also sit down and eat a little." ”
Xin Yi said: "I've eaten it." ”
Fu Jiuqu's eyes raised slightly: "Accompany me." ”
"I'm not hungry."
"Your bamboo pole-like pestle is there, affecting my appetite."
“……”
This guy's mouth is really damaged.
But who makes the family a creditor?
Xin Yi sat down next to Fu Jiuqu with a smile, watching him eat slowly and methodically, and learning from him like that, staring at people without blinking his eyes.
She didn't believe it, Fu Jiuqu was stared at and eating, and it was not awkward.
However, her eyes hurt, people really don't feel awkward, she eats as usual and is leisurely, and there is no embarrassment.
Xin Yi softened, held his cheeks, half-closed his eyes, looked at the courtyard, looked at the flowers and plants, and no longer looked at him.
The fragrance of tea under the eaves, the breeze gusts, and the vegetables and flowers in the yard swing in the wind, which is very pleasant.
"Eleventh sister." Fu Jiuqu suddenly spoke, looking at her lightly, "Help Brother Jiu make a sachet." ”
Xin Yi's brows jumped slightly, and he turned his eyes, "Why?" ”
"Dragon Boat Festival, with sachets can remove filth and ward off evil spirits."
"......" Xin Yi glanced at him.
In the custom of the Dragon Boat Festival, people do have the saying of making and wearing sachets to prevent mosquitoes from harassing them. There are also people in Xinyi's pharmacy who come to buy realgar, wormwood, and calamus powders to make sachets.
But a woman can't just send a sachet to Lang Jun, that contains a layer of love, the lady sews stitch by stitch, Lang Jun hangs on his body, that is a way to declare love.
"The king of the county has found the wrong person." Xin Yi said sincerely: "Eat and drink, I can still make a little for you, the sachet will be difficult for me." I will only use acupuncture needles, not needles for money...... I don't know anything about embroidery. ”
Fu Jiuqu squinted at her, his face sank a little, "When you gave Xingyuan, you would, but when you came to this king, you wouldn't?" ”
Belch? Zhang Xiaoniang actually knows how to embroider and make sachets?
Xin Yi said half-truthfully: "With my craftsmanship, the king of the county laughed." ”
Fu Jiuqu snorted casually, "Embroidery skills are not very good, but it depends on your heart." ”
Why does this tone sound sour?
Xin Yi's face was slightly softened, and he sighed, "There are embroidery girls in the county king's mansion, what do you want, let them make it for you." What they do is a hundred times better than what I do? ”
"Yours good."
"......" Xin Yi's head cold, "what I did was really hard to see." If the king of the county wears it, I am afraid that he will be laughed at. ”
"I'm not afraid of jokes, what are you afraid of?"
No matter what reason Xin Yi said to refuse, Fu Jiuqu had his reasons to refute.
In the end, Xin Yi is still poor in words.
You can't tell her that she's not a little lady Zhang, right?
She could only flicker first, "Then I'll go back and try it, I don't guarantee that I can do it, let alone that the Dragon Boat Festival will be ready for the county king." ”
Fu Jiuqu's face finally regained his smile, snorted lightly, and put down his chopsticks.
"Rest early tonight, and I'll pick you up early tomorrow morning."
Xin Yi looked at the food on the table, "The king of the county won't eat it?" ”
"I won't eat it." Fu Jiuqu took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and said calmly: "Save some stomach and go back to deal with the old lady." ”
Xin Yi looked at her funny, silently poured hot water for him, and then sat down to drink tea and talk to him.
Before you know it, the sky is darkening.
The smile is silent, and the years are quiet.
Fu Jiuqu found that there were also plants and trees in Xinyi's yard, but there were no mosquitoes, and he felt strange in his heart, and was about to ask her how to do it, when Sun Huai's light cough sounded.
"Master. Mrs. Xiao Zhou came, saying that the eldest princess didn't have dinner and was waiting for you to go back. ”
Fu Jiuqu's brows sank and he glanced at Xin Yi, "Got it." ”
At the door of the pharmacy, Zhou Yiliu stood in front of a carriage with two little girls. The carriage is crowned with incense curtains, and at first glance it is the car of the rich and noble. Obviously, she is in the eldest princess's mansion, and she is no longer treated as an ordinary girl.
An Niangzi didn't dare to wait for it, so she hurriedly welcomed people into the inner hall with a smile and served tea.
Zhou Yiliu looked around, saying that he missed his children, and came to see them by the way.
An Niangzi hurriedly asked people to call the three little ones.
Children all need companionship, and if they don't see each other for a long time, they will always be unfamiliar. The three little ones stood in front of Zhou Yiliu and called their aunt in a proper manner, and they were not very close to her.
Seeing this, An Niangzi touched Sannian.
"Sanbao, you go to accompany your aunt, your uncle and mother are still talking in the room, I don't know when they will come out, don't neglect the guests."
Zhou Yiliu was slightly suffocated in her heart, raised her eyes to look at the inconspicuous little woman, her eyes deepened a little, and her face slowly smiled.
"Thank you, Mrs. Ann. Sambao, come, aunt here, let aunt see you. ”
An Niangzi also laughed with her, "Sanbao, go." ”
Sannian walked over slowly, next to Zhou Yiliu, but his eyes kept looking at An Niangzi, her expression was cramped and uneasy, far from her usual lively and active appearance.
Zhou Yiliu couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart.
"When I was in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, wasn't Sanbao very good with my aunt? Why did you forget your aunt so quickly? ”
She teased the child with a smirk.
But Mrs. An heard something unusual.
Doesn't that mean that they are teaching bad children behind their backs?
"Don't be surprised by Xiao Zhou's lady, children are forgetful. If you don't see each other every three or five days, you will be estranged from your life, not to mention that Xiao Zhou's lady hasn't come for so long? ”
Zhou Yiliu pursed her lips slightly and sighed sadly, "These three children are my only remaining relatives in the world, why don't I want to visit them often?" It's just that those who are in the house and are slaves and maids are not so convenient to enter and exit. Unlike Zhang Xiaoniang's free body, she can do whatever she wants, and she doesn't have to take care of anyone......"
