Chapter 12: Telling the Heart
The rain finally stopped at dawn of the night, and the golden orange sunlight reflected on the ground through the layers of leaves in the garden, accompanied by a slight breeze, the dew drops on the trees and flowers crumbled, and the water droplets on the glazed tiles fell to the ground one after another, splashing some water of different shapes from time to time.
"The rain has finally stopped." Shen Chaoshu sat on the soft couch in front of the window, dragging her arms, looking out the window and murmuring, although she didn't like rainy days, she especially liked this kind of rainy morning.
"Miss, why are you blowing the wind again, turn it off quickly, it's not good to get caught in the cold."
Shen Chaoshu listened to this familiar chatter, her heart warmed slightly, and she quickly turned around and moved her position, and Ren Jingzhu closed the window.
"I didn't lie down all night, I had a headache, and when I saw the sky clear, I wanted to breathe, so I blew for a while."
Shen Chaoshu rubbed his forehead as he spoke, and his weak appearance looked strange and distressing.
Sure enough, Jing Zhu walked up to Shen Chaoshu and reached out to massage her temples.
Shen Chaoshu closed her eyes comfortably, she didn't lie, she did have a headache lying down, and suddenly remembered that she didn't see Gu Jianci when she woke up in the morning, and Qinzhu could enter this bamboo garden again, so it could only be Gu Jinci who ordered someone to bring Qinzhu over, for the sake of this, she barely cared about his cheapness last night.
Qin Zhu pressed it, remembering an interesting story he heard others say on the road, so he said to Shen Chaoshu: "Miss, when the slave maid came, I heard others say that a person was dropped on a carriage on East Street this morning, and the person was covered in blood and flesh, and his right hand was still broken, and it was said that he was still a woman, Miss might as well guess who it was." ”
When Shen Chaoshu heard this, his eyebrows moved, he shook Qinzhu's hand suddenly, and asked anxiously: "Don't sell Guanzi, who is it?"
The little girl was taken aback, looked at her tightly held hand with some grievances, and said tremblingly: "Miss, you light, the slave's hand hurts." ”
Only then did Shen Chaoshu realize that she had lost her temper, and hurriedly let go of some Qinzhu and rubbed it carefully for her: "I'm sorry, Jingzhu, I'm too excited." ”
"Miss should have guessed, that's right, it's the eldest lady of the Dingguo Mansion Ning Tiantang who wants to make a fool of Miss, if she hadn't designed to hurt Miss, Miss, your hand wouldn't hurt or hurt, and I don't know which kind-hearted person eliminated harm for the people, it's really nice to think about it." Qin Zhu looked happy when he mentioned this.
After listening to this, Shen Chaoshu felt a little happy and a little scared, although this matter was not done by herself, but it was she who had a dispute with Ning Tiantang yesterday, so she was afraid that someone would make a fuss about this matter.
Just when Shen Chaoshu was thinking, Gu Jinci walked in with a bowl of black decoction, and immediately noticed that Shen Chaoshu's face was not quite right, so that he directly ignored that there was still someone in the room, walked quickly to Shen Chaoshu's side, and reached out to touch her forehead.
Fortunately, there was no fever, Gu Jin let go of his hand with confidence, Old Man Li said that as long as there was no fever, it would be fine.
"You, what do you want to do?" Shen Chaoshu looked at Gu Jinci in astonishment, was he crazy, he didn't see that Qin Zhu was also in the room, so he moved his hands and feet to her, no, Qin Zhu couldn't move his hands and feet if he wasn't there.
Gu Jinci only then reacted that there was still a little maid in the room that he had ordered someone to bring over, and for a while, the always arrogant Gu Dagongzi couldn't wait to dig a hole in the ground and bury himself at this time, so he successfully stammered: "I, my one, this is the medicine that Old Man Li decocted, you, you drink it quickly."
As soon as Shen Chaoshu heard that he wanted to drink the medicine, his fair little face immediately collapsed, looking at the black medicine, is this for people to drink, it must be extremely bitter.
"It's just that my arm is swollen, and I've already taken medicine, so I don't need to drink medicine."
"No, the external application and internal administration are faster, and the sooner you are better, the sooner you can leave." Gu Jin handed the medicine to Shen Chaoshu as she spoke, with a look of the posture that if she didn't drink it, he would dare to pour it on her in front of Qin Zhu.
Just when Gu Jin thought that he was going to threaten a few more words, Shen Chaoshu stretched out his left hand and grabbed the medicine, poured it directly into his mouth, endured the intense bitterness, and dried it all in one go.
"Is there any sugar, give it to me, hurry up!" Shen Chaoshu, who had finished drinking the medicine, stretched out his hand to the two with a disparate face.
Gu Jinci took out the prepared special jasmine sugar pill from her arms and handed it to Shen Chaoshu, thinking that she was trying to persuade a few words, and then took out the sugar pill, but she actually drank it all like this.
Shen Chaoshu came over directly, grabbed a handful and put it in her mouth, the sweetness of jasmine soon filled her mouth, driving away the bitterness of the medicine, she was much more comfortable, and the whole person sat directly on the soft couch.
Although she has no image at this time, Gu Jinci is a little happy in her heart, at least in his place, this woman is still very relaxed, doesn't this mean that ......
How did Shen Chaoshu know that the person in front of her had already thought about it, she was just angry by what Gu Jin said, so she could dry the medicinal soup in one go, she just wanted to get good quickly, so that she didn't have to face this person's mouth when she went home early.
Qin Zhu stood next to him and watched the whole process, his eyes lit up, Miss is so good-looking, and this one is only a lot more good-looking than Miss, so it seems, he is still barely worthy of his own Miss.
Shen Chaoshu, who had eased up, noticed that Qin Zhu was standing on the side, looking at the little girl, her eyes were a little wrong, how could she see the feeling of CP in Qin Zhu's eyes, so Shen Chaoshu hurriedly pulled a handful of Qin Zhu, and gave Gu Jin an eviction order: "I have already drunk the medicine, you can go, I need to say something to my maid." ”
When Gu Jin heard this, she frowned, and was a little unhappy, she would throw it away when she ran out, so she said coldly to Qin Zhu: "This son has something to say to your young lady, you go to Shen You and tell him that you can arrange breakfast." ”
Qin Zhu looked at Shen Chaoshu, and when she saw that she was silent, she bowed and withdrew, and intimately helped close the door.
Shen Chaoshu stared at Gu Jinci with a straight face, and her tone was not very good: "That's my maid, why do you order her." ”
"Do as I command in my land." Gu Jin replied casually.
Shen Chaoshu was speechless for a while, and he couldn't refute it, he couldn't go up or down in one breath, he was really angry with Gu Jinci, thinking that she didn't have to be angry so often on weekdays, she really made a mistake with Gu Jinci, and it was not suitable to interact, so she would go back to the house, and the province would look at his face here.
After making up his mind, Shen Chaoshu got up from the soft couch and walked towards the door, just as he was about to open the door, his left hand was pulled, and the whole person was pulled around, and he fell towards Gu Jin.
Gu Jinci instinctively hurriedly supported her soft waist, the two of them were very close in an instant, and they could hear each other's heartbeats beating again and again, and the temperature in the room continued to rise for a while, and the atmosphere was beautiful.
Shen Chaoshu's apricot eyes widened slightly, and she looked up at her, she didn't understand the affairs of men and women, she had also talked about it in modern times, but it ended in a breakup with a discompatible personality, looking at Gu Jianci's various things about herself, even if she didn't want to think about it, she couldn't do it.
And Gu Jinci seemed to be very calm at this time, but in fact, his heart was already in chaos, and he wanted to stop her as if he was not under his control as he watched Shen Chaoshu walk out.
"Gu Jinci, can you tell me what you mean by this? Do you know that it's easy for you to think otherwise? Shen Chaoshu asked softly.
Gu Jin's snort lingered with the faint fragrance of jasmine on the woman's body, and his heart was once again confused, he pondered for a moment, let go of Shen Chaoshu, and replied lightly: "What do I think of you, Shen Chaoshu, I think you think too much about yourself." ”
After Shen Chaoshu heard this, he smiled coldly: "There is no best, then please keep your distance from me in the future, don't do this kind of frivolous behavior at every turn, I don't want to have anything to do with you." ”
Gu Jinci was poked hard by her cold tone, and his heart was very uncomfortable, some things had not been resolved, and he couldn't show his feelings yet.
"You woman is so cruel when she speaks, that's how she treats her life-saving benefactor, I think your Shen family's upbringing is nothing more than that."
Shen Chaoshu was completely furious when he heard this, and directly pushed Gu Jinci onto the soft couch, looked down condescendingly at the bewitching man in front of him, and said viciously: "Gu Jinci, you'd better keep your dead duck's hard-mouthed attitude, I dare to admit that I am indeed a little different from you, but it's not too late to take it back now." ”
Gu Jinci was stunned after hearing this, what she just said, she said that she had feelings for him, and suddenly, something seemed to break through all barriers in Gu Jinci's heart, and exploded in his mind like a lit firework.
"Say what you say, you say it again." Gu Jinci pulled Shen Chaoshu's intact left hand, his tone was impatient, Yin Yin had already heard it clearly, but he still wanted to verify it again.
Shen Chaoshu sneered, pulled out his left hand vigorously, took a few steps back, and looked at Gu Jinci indifferently: "Do you want to hear it?" Unfortunately, I don't want to say that I have always dared to look directly into my own heart, unlike some people who say hurtful things. ”
After speaking, Shen Chaoshu turned around and walked out without looking back, this time, Gu Jin Ci was not hindering, and let Shen Chaoshu leave, but also ordered someone to prepare the carriage.
Inside the house, Gu Jinci had a deep feeling of powerlessness for the first time in his life, he spread out his palm, it was a purple silk handkerchief, embroidered with a few pure white gardenias, which he quietly took away from Shen Chaoshu last night, and there was still a faint jasmine fragrance on it, whether she was gone, the overall situation was undecided, and it was better not to mislead others for life.
