Chapter 132: Fear

Gu Wanyin has always only slept for half an hour in the afternoon, so she woke up before Zhou Ruijing. When he opened his eyes, he didn't wake up yet, and because she was sleeping in it, if she got up, it would definitely alarm Zhou Ruijing, so she had to continue to lie down;

But it was the first time she had looked at him so closely. Zhou Ruijing, who had his eyes closed, was a little more gentle and approachable than usual. Maybe it's because you close your eyes and cover your eyes too sharply?

Zhou Ruijing's eyelashes are very long, but they are not particularly thick, and they look slender and fragile, like the wings of a butterfly, which can be injured if you are not careful. I can't see that he looks at such a very intimidating person, but he will give people such a feeling.

His gaze went down, and finally landed on the thin scar on the side of his face. It was only then that she realized that there was such a mark on his face. The scar is so shallow that you can't see it at all unless you look closely. Presumably the scars weren't too deep at that time, right? Was it wounded on the battlefield?

Thinking like this, her heart suddenly tightened. It's just something that causes such a long wound? Knife? Sword? Or what?

looked down again, over the thin lips, and then she found one thing - under Zhou Ruijing's chin, there was also a scar, but the scar was deeper. If it weren't for the fact that her gaze was slanted upwards at this time, she wouldn't be able to see it.

What is going on with this wound?

Gu Wanyin looked so engrossed that she didn't notice that Zhou Ruijing had opened her eyes at some point.

As soon as Zhou Ruijing opened his eyes, he saw Gu Wanyin's expression staring at him intently, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking?

He was a light sleeper and very sensitive. Being stared at by Gu Wanyin like this, she naturally noticed it and woke up.

He looked at her for a long time, and when he saw that she didn't mean to come back to his senses, he said softly: "That scar was injured when I was a child in a fight." Someone stabbed with a branch. ”

Gu Wanyin was startled, her eyelashes trembled and she glanced at Zhou Ruijing in fright, like a naughty child who had been caught, with a weak face: "Are you awake?" ”

Zhou Ruijing didn't move, looking down at him. Full of softness: "Yes." But what else is there to be curious about? ”

She was suddenly embarrassed, but then a trace of curiosity really surfaced in her heart, and after hesitating for a moment, she still couldn't help but ask, "What about the wound on your face?" How did it get here? ”

As soon as the words came out, she felt his body stiffen. Immediately, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of sharpness floated from his eyes, but the corners of his lips were slightly hooked: "It's on the battlefield." was injured by the high priest of Miao Jiang. That time, he almost lost his life. It was also at that time that our army won, and I was recalled to Beijing by the Holy Lord for my military exploits. ”

When he said that. The tone was very light, but she heard it. But there is a feeling of blood boiling. It was as if with his story, she saw with her own eyes how he narrowly won and then returned to court.

I just came back to my senses immediately, but I felt palpitations: "After that, will you still go to the battlefield?" "She didn't want him to go to such a dangerous place again. Even though it was selfish, it was her true thoughts. All she wants is a peaceful and happy home.

Zhou Ruijing shook his head and smiled lightly, but it was sarcastic: "A Zhou family." There will only be one king of Zhennan. ”

Gu Wanyin was stunned. Looking up at him, I was suddenly shocked. What he meant by this was that the Holy Lord would not let the Zhou family have too much military power. The king of Zhennan now has a heavy army in his hands, so. There will be no second general in the Zhou family. This is also the reason why Zhou Ruijing has a talent, but he was called back to be a civil official.

Other words;. In other words, the saint is jealous of the Zhou family and has begun to suppress the Zhou family.

Zhou Ruijing looked at her calmly, his eyes were a little shocked, and his expression changed from thoughtful to dignified. Then the corners of her lips curled slightlyβ€”it seemed that she understood what he meant.

Gu Wanyin came back to her senses, and looked at Zhou Ruijing's gaze, although they had done the most intimate things, but when they looked at each other, they still couldn't help but feel shy.

But at this time, she didn't care about these things, and only asked him in a low voice: "So is it very likely that you will never be promoted again in your life?" ”

Zhou Ruijing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed heartily: "Maybe." "I didn't expect her to be so sensitive to politics. It's easy to draw inferences.

Now that the saints are already jealous of the Zhou family, then the Zhou family will no longer have gāoguān. He had long understood this truth, but it was a pity that most of the other Réndà of the Zhou family did not understand it. It's not as good as a weak female streamer. However, perhaps his wife is different from others.

Once again, Zhou Ruijing felt that his choice was worth it.

And Gu Wanyin saw that Zhou Ruijing did not look lost, and she couldn't help curling the corners of her lips, her husband was so good.

What she didn't know was that her eyes were shining brightly now. That thrilling brilliance suddenly made her whole face come alive.

"Have you slept enough?" Stopping to speak, she realized that they were so close to each other now, and she suddenly became uncomfortable, and couldn't wait to distance herself.

Zhou Ruijing knew it, but he didn't break it. Nodding his head, he got up: "I'll go to the study to read the book." ”

Not long after she got up, Bi Mei came in and said, "Princess, the third lady is here." ”

Gu Wanyin hurriedly greeted him.

When Zhou Yufei came in, he first looked around, and then asked, "Sister-in-law, isn't my brother here?" ”

A sentence of sister-in-law suddenly made her cheeks crimson. glanced at Zhou Yufei embarrassedly, and nodded: "Well, I'm going to the study." With such a big sun, why did you come here? Beware of the heat. ”

Zhou Yufei smiled shyly: "There is nothing to do, thinking that my sister-in-law is boring when she just enters the door and is not familiar with the family, so I came to find my sister-in-law to relieve my boredom." ”

Zhou Yufei's girl took out a plate of loquat from the suitcase, and said with a smile: "Taste it, the princess of the world, this is picked by our third lady in her own yard, and the third lady planted it herself." ”

Glancing at Zhou Yufei, who was sitting there smiling shyly, Gu Wanyin was really surprised: "This is my sister's own planting?" ”

Zhou Yufei nodded, very embarrassed: "I have nothing to do, in addition to practicing calligraphy, I also like to play with these flowers and plants." Sister-in-law, don't laugh yet. ”

"How so?" Gu Wanyin picked up a loquat and glanced at Zhou Yufei with a smile: "Thank you, sister, it's too late." ”

After thinking about it, she asked again: "Have you tasted it for the old lady and mother?" ”

Zhou Yufei was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and lowered his voice: "No." After all, it will not be on the stage, and the old lady will definitely be angry when she knows about it. The mother will also be unhappy; ”

Gu Wanyin looked at Zhou Yufei, with a smile on her face, but sighed in her heart. It's not that I don't want to, but I don't dare. Zhou Yufei's Xingzi is too cowardly. Is it the scourge left by the excessive shock of childhood?

I guessed in my heart, but I persuaded with a smile on my face: "If my sister doesn't try, how will she know?" I can't say that the old lady and her mother saw this, and they only missed their sister for their filial piety. Besides, it's not something that can't be put on the table. Some people like the cāo qin, some people like to compose poetry, some people like to write, there are countless people in the world, and each of them likes it differently. It's just a hobby, and it's not something to be seen. ”

However, Zhou Yufei still shook his head and said in a low voice: "The second wife often says that everyone should not do this. Besides, pruning and weeding, only peasant women like to do these things. I know that I am not as good as my second sister, how can I still be bored? ”

Listening to these presumptuous words, Gu Wanyin's heart froze, and she immediately felt terrible pain. At the same time, he disagreed with the second wife. The second wife's words are too much. It's just raising flowers and planting flowers and trees, how can you compare a good daughter with a peasant woman?

Presumably, Zhou Yufei's Xingzi is so cowardly, and it has something to do with the second wife?

Thinking of this, Gu Wanyin smiled slightly and looked at Zhou Yufei: "If you don't dare to show it to the old lady, it doesn't hurt to take some for your mother." Even if my mother is unhappy, what is my mother afraid of? Let's go, and I'll go with you. ”

said that, he didn't give Zhou Yufei a chance to refute, so he asked Danzhi to reassemble the loquat, and then went to the princess's courtyard with Zhou Yufei.

On the way, Zhou Yufei continued to hesitate and retreat, if she hadn't pulled it to death, she was afraid that Zhou Yufei would run back halfway. Zhou Yufei is like this, which only makes her shake her head - this is the case for her biological mother, let alone others.

It's just that when I arrived in the princess's courtyard, I didn't expect that the third wife was also in the princess's house.

After saluting, the princess pulled the two of them down to sit down, and asked Gu Wanyin with a smile, "Why did you come here at this time?" Is there something going on? ”

Gu Wanyin glanced at Zhou Yufei, Zhou Yufei suddenly fidgeted for a while, her cheeks were crimson, and she shook her head vigorously. So she shook her head, "It's okay. ”

Zhou Yufei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It's just that I heard Gu Wanyin continue to say: "But the third sister has something to come to find her mother." For a moment, her eyes widened and she looked at Gu Wanyin in disbelief.

Gu Wanyin smiled and looked at Zhou Yufei, sending a hint of encouragement.

Zhou Yufei had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that the loquat in my yard has produced a lot this year, and I tasted it well, so I sent it to my mother to taste." ”

Although he said it a little stumblingly, and his expression was unnatural, he said it very well, and Gu Wanyin couldn't help but look at it approvingly. It seems that Zhou Yufei is not cowardly because of Tianxing, but because of the environment, not like she was at the beginning......

When the princess heard these words, she just showed a smile, and the third lady laughed out loud: "Sure enough, the girl is the mother's intimate padded jacket." Sister-in-law is really enviable! ”

The princess suddenly smiled even more, and was about to open her mouth to speak, but the girl came up and said, "Princess, the second wife is here." ”

Gu Wanyin was stunned for a moment, her smile gradually converged, and her eyes were deep. The second wife came by coincidence. Moreover, it is not an ordinary coincidence. It's like an appointment with someone.;
