Chapter 53: Looking at each other in the air, but not hugging each other

"What are you thinking, thinking so distractedly?"

With a warm smile on her face, Qin Chaojiu came to Shen Yajun's side and gently raised her hand to touch Shen Yajun's shoulder.

As if he had been taken aback, Shen Yajun turned back suddenly: "Chaojiu, you, you're here."

Qin Chaojiu blinked: "Yes, I just came from in front of you, and I saw that you were distracted, what were you thinking?"

Shen Yajun's expression stiffened for a moment, and he pulled out a smile: "I didn't think about anything, I just felt that it was too cold recently, and my brain seemed to be frozen."

After saying a joke, Shen Yajun said casually: "It's not a coincidence that I came, there is a distinguished guest in your Hou Mansion today, and he is from the Guo family of the Marquis of Dongping."

Shen Yajun's gaze fell on Qin Chaojiu's body, and he looked at it with a bit of scrutiny: "The eldest lady of the Guo family is beautiful and delicate, I remember that she seems to be two years younger than me, and now she is allowed to be a family?"

The color of expectation in Shen Yajun's eyes was too strong, and it was difficult for even Qin Chaojiu to ignore it.

Qin Chaojiu could only say, "Yes, I haven't seen Miss Guo yet."

"Yes, you've not been in the capital for a long time, so it's normal that you haven't seen it. I just met, and she went to visit the second son of Qin with Mrs. Hou, saying that she brought a reliable cure." Shen Yajun's eyes were full of disappointment, she lowered her eyes, her expression was already gone, and even her voice was wilting, but she still opened her mouth and said, "I hope Second Prince Qin can get better soon."

Suddenly realizing that there might be something wrong with his tone, Shen Yajun immediately raised his head, looked at Qin Chaojiu, and continued to add, "Now that the New Year has come to an end, I naturally hope that your family can have a happy New Year, and everyone can be healthy and safe."

Qin Chaojiu hooked his lips slightly, but did not pierce Shen Yajun.

Qin Chaojiu got up and grabbed Shen Yajun's hand and said, "You came at the right time, I have never met Miss Guo, you accompany me to meet me, so you can introduce me to me, don't be told that I have no rules."

Qin Chao found an excuse for a long time, so he pulled Shen Yajun outside Qingya's second residence.

Qin Chaojiu, as the daughter of the Hou Mansion, naturally did not need Shen Yajun, an outsider, to introduce her, but at this moment, no one refuted her clumsy lie.

Shen Yajun's heart has even begun to leap and beat.

Is it possible for her to meet Qin Guanming?

"Second Miss, why did you bring Fifth Miss Shen here? This is the second residence of Qingya, the place where the second son lives, the second young lady, you don't want to ruin the reputation of the fifth girl Shen."

A small servant standing at the door immediately stopped Qin Chaojiu and Shen Yajun from speaking, with a somewhat preachy tone.

Obviously, he was blaming Qin Chaojiu for being so ignorant of the rules.

Zhujie stepped forward and snorted coldly, "Second Miss, when is it your turn to speak as a minion? Our young lady is here to find Miss Guo, I heard that Miss Guo is coming, I came to meet her, and if I talk nonsense, I will pull out your tongue and feed it to the dog."

That little guy has always been a bully who is afraid of the hard, and after being scolded twice, he honestly explained: "Miss Guo didn't come, and just now I went to Changbai Courtyard with Mrs. Guo when I arrived at the door."

Knowing that Miss Guo didn't come, Shen Yajun didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.

She lost the opportunity to meet Qin Guanming, but fortunately Miss Guo didn't see Qin Guanming either.

"Let's go."

Qin Chaojiu and Shen Yajun turned around and left.

Shen Yajun's movements were slow, every step was as if she had stepped on a knife, and every extra step made her feel painful.

In the quiet courtyard, Qin Guanming heard the sound outside the door, but he couldn't really hear it.

He turned his face sideways and asked the servant who was waiting, "Who is talking outside the door?"

"The little ones are going to take a look."

After a while, the servant came back and said casually, "It's Second Miss, Second Miss brought Miss Shen Wu from the General's Mansion over, saying that she came to find Miss Guo, and when she saw that Miss Guo was not here, she went back."

Miss Shen Wu?

Yajun?

Qin Guanming suddenly got up from the bed, he supported his body, and rushed to the door without even wearing shoes.

The little guy behind him hurriedly caught up: "Childe, where are you going!" You haven't got your clothes on!"

The little servant hurriedly took a cloak and caught up with Qin Guanming, putting the cloak on his body for him.

"Childe, where are you going, you are still sick, you can't come out casually, if this is discovered by Madame, I am afraid that the little one will be killed."

Although the little guy was worried, he didn't dare to stop Qin Guanming from coming out, so he could only tie the strap of the cloak for him as much as possible and pray that he would be well.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ......"

A cold wind hit, and Qin Guanming coughed violently again.

The violent coughing sound made Shen Yajun, who was walking not far ahead, pause, and she immediately turned her eyes to look to the side.

Her clear gaze passed through the empty and depressed corridor, bypassed the two pillars, and landed on Qin Guanming's body.

He rested one hand on the courtyard door, one hand clenched into a fist and hung at his side.

He lost weight.

How could he be so thin, as if a gust of north wind could blow him down.

The flesh on both sides of his cheeks was sunken in, his face was pale, and even his eyes were dark and black, and he couldn't even sleep well because of the pain and pain.

Their eyes collided in the icy wind.

She froze.

He was also stunned.

The distance between each other in the cold wind is clearly only a few dozen steps, but it seems to have crossed thousands of mountains and rivers.

No one dares to take a step forward anymore.

Qin Chaojiu stood silently on the side and didn't say a word.

Until a maid came over and called Shen Yajun: "Miss Shen Wu, this is the tuyere, it's too cold to stand here, let's go ahead."

Shen Yajun reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

She lowered her eyes, and her hands were hidden under the stove, and her fingertips were already white.

She saw him.

Little did she know that he was already sick like this.

"Asaha , I'm suddenly feeling a little unwell, it seems to be too cold, I'll go back first, and I'll talk to you another day."

Not a few steps after walking out, Shen Yajun found a reason and left the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

Qin Chaojiu personally sent Shen Yajun into the carriage, and after seeing her leave, he suddenly remembered an extremely important thing in his heart.

"Come on, prepare the car, I'm going to Beimu Wangfu."

Qin Chaojiu hurriedly urged the driver to be as fast as possible.

Zhujie looked puzzled: "What's wrong, Miss, why are you suddenly in such a hurry to go to Beimu Palace, didn't you encounter something big?"

Qin Chaojiu patted his head: "I forgot about King Beimu, do you think this is a big deal?"

Bamboo: "......"

Zhujie is very strange, why has their young lady only thought about eating and drinking every day recently, but in just ten days, she and her young lady have eaten all over the seven or eight restaurants in the capital.

The more Qin Chaojiu thought about it at the moment, the more cold she felt, she buried her head between her two arms, if it weren't for the deep love between Shen Yajun and her second brother that she suddenly saw today, she couldn't love it.

Touched a little, she was afraid that she hadn't remembered Xiao Changdui's coming.

Half a month ago, she just came out of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and she was originally going to Beimu Wangfu to find Xiao Changdui to apologize clearly.

It was she herself who misunderstood the matter between Xiao Changdui and the eldest princess, and she shouldn't listen to the wind or rain.

But halfway through, she suddenly met Qin Guanming and Shen Yajun, which caused her to be delayed at that time.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he delayed, he completely forgot about the apology.

It's been half a month, and Xiao Changdui won't be ...... Angry, right?

Otherwise, I really didn't come to look for myself for half a month.

"Can the prince be in the mansion?" Qin Chaojiu came to the gate of the Beimu Palace, saw the doorman of the palace, and asked. z.br>

The doorman looked puzzled and said, "The Queen Mother is seriously ill, and the prince has gone to the palace to serve him, and he hasn't returned to the house for more than ten days, don't you know Miss Qin?"

Qin Chaojiu: "......"

No wonder, no wonder she didn't look for Xiao Changdui in the past half a month, and Xiao Changdui didn't come to her.

But it is not so easy to enter the palace, after a little thought, Qin Chaojiu said: "Then I will go in first and wait for the prince, if the prince comes back, he can see me as soon as possible."

No one dared to stop the future princess of Beimu, so she had to welcome her into the palace warmly and decently.

The news soon reached Xiao Changdu's ears, and on the same day, Xiao Changdui returned from the palace.

"The prince is back."

Following the message of the subordinates, Qin Chaojiu immediately turned around and went to the kitchen, bringing out a bowl of steaming lotus root pork rib soup.

"Lord Wang, you are back, come and taste the soup I made with my own hands?" Qin Chaojiu stepped forward with a smile, took out a small bowl, and handed it to Xiao Changdu.

Xiao Changdui has not forgotten that Qin Chaojiu wanted the eldest princess to be a concubine for him, even if he came back from the palace in a hurry, he still had a straight face at the moment.

"Hmm."

The fragrant soup bowl was placed in front of him, but Xiao Changdui only snorted lightly.

The attitude was cold, as if he was unwilling to say a word to Qin Chaojiu.

Qin Chaojiu tilted his head, leaned closer to Xiao Changdui, and called out in a gentle voice: "Husband~ Don't be angry, I know it's wrong."

Qin Chaojiu's voice elongated the word "husband" in his tone, which instantly made Xiao Changdui sit up straight, and he could feel the imperceptible warmth when the woman approached.

Qin Chaojiu personally scooped a spoonful of soup and sent it to Xiao Changdu's lips, but he was surprised to find that he actually smiled.

Xiao Changdui realized that he had shown a smile so easily, and immediately felt that he had returned to an expressionless expression.

"The king himself comes."

Xiao Changdui took the spoon, tasted it, and unconsciously raised his eyebrows slightly: "Medicinal food?"

"Well, it's cold, drink some medicinal food to strengthen your body." Qin Chaojiu nodded and said.

Speaking of which, after doing the system for so long, she didn't even have a serious recipe in her head, only medicinal food.

"How's it going, is it delicious?" Qin Chaojiu looked at Xiao Changdui expectantly, did he drink it to prove that he was no longer angry with himself?

"Hmm."

Another cold word popped out of his throat.

Such an attitude of cherishing words like gold......

The husband also called, and the soup was also made, why did he still reject people thousands of miles away.

This time, why does it seem a little hard to coax?
