Chapter 45 Auntie, don't sleep

"First of all, your books, do you still have them?" Zhao Yan reached out and played with the buckle on the placket of his clothes.

"Yes." Zhou Yu spread out his hand, stared at the hair in the palm of his hand, and said lightly: "If Fu Xuan wants to use it, you can send someone to get it at any time." ”

"He's going to have a commentary." Zhao Yan added.

"Hmm." Zhou Yu nodded: "What about the second thing?" ”

"Doctor Tai, when is it convenient, Fu Xuan said that it is okay at any time, can you help me ask for a time?" Zhao Yan looked at him inquiringly.

"Okay." Zhou Yu responded: "I'm ready to send someone to inform you."

What else? ”

"And there's that." Zhao Yan leaned on him: "I want a guard with a better appearance, it will take a few days." ”

"Looks good?" Zhou Yu raised his eyes to look at her and clenched the hair in his hand again.

"I'm useful, I'll pay you back when I'm done, what do you think I'm going to do?" Zhao Yan raised her wet eyes and smiled coquettishly.

Zhou Yu's eyes were deep, looking at her little face as bright as a blooming peony, the Adam's apple rolled slightly, and then looked away restrainedly: "Okay." ”

"It's not early, let's go back and rest early." Zhao Yan got up and walked to the bedside.

Zhou Yu followed silently.

Zhao Yan sat down on the edge of the bed, raised her eyes and looked at him with a smile: "You're not leaving?" ”

"With you." Zhou Yu sat down beside her.

Zhao Yan tilted her head and leaned on his shoulder, eating and laughing: "Can you bear it?" ”

Before Zhou Yu could respond, there was a knock at the door.

"Girl."

It's the sound of the rain.

"Come in." Zhao Yan leaned on Zhou Yu's shoulder and did not move.

Xiyu saw the two of them snuggling together, and hurriedly lowered his head.

She stepped forward with both hands and the tray holding the soup bowl in her hand: "Girl, this is the new soup medicine that the little prince gave you." ”

Zhou Yu took it and tried the heat and cold on his lips before feeding it to Zhao Yan's lips.

Zhao Yan took his hand and used most of the bowl of soup medicatedly.

"But it's bitter?" Zhou Yu put the bowl on the tray and took out a piece of candy and fed it to her.

Xiyu lowered his head and retreated.

"It's more bitter than the soothing soup." Zhao Yan took the candy in her mouth, pinched the handkerchief and wiped her lips, and smiled nonchalantly: "But it's not bitter, at least you can taste it." ”

The bitterness that can be tasted is not considered bitterness.

"There is a tranquilizer in this medicine, you don't need to take another tranquilizer." Zhou Yu's eyes were a little distressed.

"What kind of miracle doctor you are looking for, don't you need to take my pulse when you prescribe medicine?" Zhao Yan asked him with a smile.

"Last time, you were sick, and the doctor had already brought it out, and this time I asked him to prescribe it directly." Zhou Yu explained.

Zhao Yan nodded, tasted the sugar in her mouth, and seemed to have a feeling: "What kind of candy did you give me to eat?" ”

"Milk Ball Lion Candy." Zhou Yu replied lightly.

"From the palace?" Zhao Yan asked.

"Hmm." Zhou Yu bowed: "It's a tribute from Shudi." ”

Zhao Yan lowered her eyes and didn't say anything for a while.

"Like to eat?" Zhou Yu asked her.

Zhao Yanya's long eyelashes covered the emotions at the bottom of her eyes: "I ate this kind of candy when I was a child, and it was brought to me and Fuxuan when my mother came back for the last time." ”

Zhou Yu raised his hand to take her into his arms, took out a delicate small porcelain vase that could be held with one hand and handed it to her: "Tribute is rare, only so much." ”

"Thank you." Zhao Yan never refused.

The sweet aroma of this sugar can remind her of her mother's appearance, and the fleeting happiness when she is with her mother.

She held the sugar in her mouth, held the small porcelain bottle, and leaned into Zhou Yu's arms.

Zhou Yu was silent, only silently accompanied her.

Zhao Yan's eyes gradually closed, and in the smell of milk lion candy, she didn't hold the small quilt left by her mother for the first time, and she fell asleep.

"Auntie, don't sleep."

Zhou Yu called her softly.

"Hmm......" Zhao Yan half-opened her eyes in a daze and looked at him in confusion.

"You can't sleep with sugar in your mouth." Zhou Yu stretched out his hand and took it under her lips.

Zhao Yan opened her mouth and spit the candy in the palm of his hand.

Zhou Yu placed her on the bed, got up to clean her hands, and brought water to rinse her mouth.

After Zhao Yan rinsed her mouth, she hugged the small quilt, turned around and fell asleep with her back to the outside.

Zhou Yu got on the bed, pulled her into his arms, and closed his eyes.

After a while, he let go of her and sat up, sat up for a long time looking at her flawless sleeping face, and sent her to the side of the bed, and tucked the corner of the quilt out of bed.

He went out of the inner room, pushed open the back window of the outer room, and the cool breeze of late autumn poured in, and he stood by the window for a long time, until the wind was cold, and the blood was gone, and then he returned to the inner room again.

This time, he didn't pull Zhao Yan into his arms again, but shrunk on the edge of the bed and slept separately from her.

This time, he slept quickly.

When you enter Yin, everything is silent outside, and it is the time when people are most likely to fall asleep.

A crescent moon also shy and hid behind the clouds.

In Wanchen Courtyard, a fire suddenly rose.

Zhou Yu woke up in an instant, and neatly pulled up Zhao Yan, who was still asleep: "Sister, wake up!" ”

Zhao Yan woke up, but she was a little groggy because of the tranquilizer: "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Yu had already put on her coat quickly, took a thin cloak to wrap her, picked her up and went out barefoot.

"It's out of the water!"

Outside, Leaf shouted.

Zhao Yan came to her senses and pushed Zhou Yu: "Let me down, you go quickly." ”

"I'll send you out." Zhou Yu continued to walk out.

"I can do it myself." Zhao Yan struggled down: "You leave quickly, don't let people notice." ”

If she goes to the water, there will definitely be a lot of people outside to put out the fire, and she doesn't want people to know about her relationship with Zhou Yu.

Not only because Zhou Yu can be regarded as one of her hole cards, but also because she doesn't want to miss Zhou Yu's reputation.

Between her and Zhou Yu, she took advantage of it after all.

If people know that Zhou Yu is having an affair with her, it will hinder his reputation.

She hoped that when they separated, Zhou Yu would be able to get out of the way, which could be regarded as her insignificant reward for him.

Zhou Yu had no choice but to let her go.

"Girl!"

The Leaf rushed in.

Zhou Yu watched the Leaf pull Zhao Yan out quickly, then turned around, rushed into the smoke, opened the back window outside, and jumped out.

"Quick, move fast!"

At the time, he commanded the people to put out the fire.

There are eight large water tanks in the courtyard, which store water all year round.

When there is nothing to do, these tanks will raise some aquatic plants and small fish, and when they go out of the water, these water will be used to fight fires and save lives.

The fire started from the back window of the inner room, and it burned in with the wind, obviously to burn Zhao Yan who was resting on the bed in the inner room.

Zhao Yan hugged the cloak, raised her eyes to look at the sky-high firelight, pursed her lips and said nothing.

Such a fire naturally alarmed the entire Huai'an Hou Mansion, and the subordinates of each courtyard saw the fire, and they all came to put out the fire with pots and pots.

Jiang Qingrou also arrived soon.

When she entered the door, she saw Zhao Yan standing in the courtyard, safe and sound.

She stepped forward and reached out to pull Zhao Yan with concern: "Eldest sister, are you okay?" ”

Before she started, she told Xiu'er's girl that Zhao Yan is a cat demon, but she is afraid that she has nine lives, how can she be burned to death so easily?

And so it was.

However, although she had long expected that Zhao Yan might be fine, she couldn't help but be disappointed when she saw this scene.

"Thank you mother for your concern." Zhao Yan took a step back and dodged her hand: "I'm fine." ”

"It's okay if the eldest sister is fine." Jiang Qingrou patted her heart, breathed a sigh of relief, and commanded: "Move faster!" ”

Zhao Yan knew that Jiang Qingrou didn't care about her.

The Hou Mansion of Huai'an is also an old mansion, and if this fire is not careful, it will implicate the entire house, so Jiang Qingrou is so hard-working.

As basins of water continued to reach the back of the house, the fire burned for more than two quarters of an hour before it was completely extinguished.

"Girl." Leaf stepped forward and whispered, "The east side room has almost burned down, and even the ear room has burned a lot."

Half of the main house was burned, and the west side of the house was not affected. ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yan bowed slightly.

Leaf looked at Jiang Qingrou and stopped talking.

She still has something to report to Zhao Yan, but Jiang Qingrou is inconvenient.
