Following.

Tao Yao was accompanying Lu Jiuyuan to breakfast, when the subordinates from the other courtyard came over.

"Mrs. Lu, our fifth son asks to see you."

Tao Yao was stunned, "Who is the fifth son?"

Lu Jiuyuan also raised his eyes to look at the lower person.

Seeing this, the subordinate felt panicked inexplicably, and stammered, "Yes, it's the fifth son of our Nie family......

As soon as Tao Yao heard this, he understood, and nodded, "It's the Nie family, then you let him wait for a while."

"Yes." If the subordinate was pardoned, he quickly slipped away.

After breakfast, Tao Yao was just about to get up, but Lu Jiuyuan held his hand, "Let's go together."

Tao Yao was stunned, "Okay."

When she arrived in the front hall, she saw at a glance that a handsome young man, pulling at his robe, was sitting nervously and crampedly.

After she looked at it a few times, she remembered, wasn't the other party the boy who secretly looked at her and blushed when she was at Nie's house yesterday?

Just now, the subordinates seemed to call him the fifth son.

Thinking about it, she called out loud, "Fifth Prince Nie?"

Hearing this, Nie Wugongzi looked up, and when he saw Tao Yao, his face quickly turned red, he stood up, and his tone stammered a little, "Tao, Tao girl."

Tao Yao nodded, and said curiously, "By the way, you came to me, but is there something wrong?"

Nie Wugongzi immediately handed over a box on the table, "This is Xu Ji's mung bean cake, yesterday I saw that Miss Tao liked to eat it very much, and today I happened to pass by Xu Ji, so I bought one for you."

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, looked at the other party's shy appearance, and vaguely understood his intentions.

This......

She was thinking about how to refuse tactfully, when she saw a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, "Fifth Master Nie has a heart, thank you for Neizi below."

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look, and then remembered Lu Jiuyuan who came with him.

It's just that his face is so ugly.

She blinked, he was like this, could it be because he was jealous?

Realizing this, her beautiful eyes filled with smiles.

Lu Jiuyuan saw it, reached out and squeezed her hand.

Nie Wugongzi was stunned.

It was also at this time that he noticed Lu Jiuyuan.

When he saw Lu Jiuyuan's appearance and the powerful aura emanating from his body, he was suddenly shocked in his heart.

The man looked so scary, but what he said ......

His body was shocked, and his gaze at Tao Yao quickly dimmed, "You, you're already married?"

"Yes. Fifth son Nie, this is the husband of the family." Tao Yao immediately introduced.

When Nie Wugongzi heard this, he bowed to the two of them in despair, "I'm sorry, there is still something to do, let's go first."

With that, without waiting for the two to say anything, he left in a hurry.

Lu Jiuyuan's face was slightly softened, and he was interested.

Tao Yao didn't take this matter to heart, turned his head to look at the box in his hand, swallowed his saliva and said, "This mung bean cake is delicious."

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, and suddenly raised his hand to give the mung bean cake to Wu Ze.

Tao Yao: "......"

"Master, is this for his subordinates?" Uze took it in a daze, flattered.

"Hmm." Lu Jiuyuan bowed, "After eating, go buy a new box."

Uze: "......"

He looked at the blazing sun outside, and then at the box in his hand.

Sure enough, the master was not so kind.

"Yes." He lamented in his heart.

Tao Yao looked at the pair of masters and servants strangely, and couldn't help but say, "Don't bother, I can eat with Wu Ze."

When Wu Ze heard this, he immediately nodded, "Yes, his subordinates can't eat so much."

"No, this mung bean cake is not fresh at first glance, and I don't know when it was made. You will go to Xu Kee in person and buy a new box of fresh ones." Lu Jiuyuan said in a deep voice.

black

Ze: "......"

The box hasn't been opened yet, how can the master see that the pastry is not fresh?

And it's not fresh, give it to him to eat?

Uze's mood was not so happy in an instant.

Tao Yao felt a little inexplicable.

But thinking of Fang Cai's Fifth Nie Gongzi, she vaguely understood something.

She took Lu Jiuyuan's hand and said with a smile, "Wu Ze, do you smell a smell of sour vinegar?"

Uze was stunned, "Sour vinegar?"

Tao Yao's chin nodded at Lu Jiuyuan.

Wu Ze suddenly understood, and said in an exaggerated tone: "I smell it, I smell it, it smells so sour, and I don't know who is brewing vinegar?"

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him, suddenly reached out and took the box from his hand, turned his head and handed it to Zhao Er, "You can eat."

Zhao Er was flattered, "Thank you, master."

Uze: "......"

How can the mung bean cake in the mouth still fly?

Tao Yao laughed out loud.

Wu Ze looked depressed, "Master, since the mung bean cake is eaten by Zhao Er, his subordinates don't have to go on that trip again, let Zhao Er go."

"Zhao Er wants to eat mung bean cake, he doesn't have time, besides, your feet are faster than him, go immediately now." Lu Jiuyuan said unhurriedly.

Uze: "......"

No one is worse than him, right?

The benefits are obtained by others, but he is the one who runs the errands.

Tao Yao comforted, "It doesn't matter, after the pastries are bought, we will eat them together."

Wu Zezheng was a little moved, and was about to nod his head when he noticed an oppressive glance.

He trembled and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, my subordinates are going to buy pastries."

"Uze is really diligent, and he is also a prisoner." Tao Yao praised it, turned to Lu Jiuyuan and said, "You have to reward others well."

Lu Jiuyuan bowed, "Madam is right, it really deserves a good reward."

Wu Ze, who had already walked outside the door, suddenly felt a chill on his back, and he shivered.

The next day, Tao Yao ran out and bought two concentric locks back, then carried Lu Jiuyuan on his back, took a dagger, and quietly engraved words on the concentric locks.

Two days later is the Chinese Valentine's Day, I heard that on that day, the Queqiao in Linzhou City will be opened, let people go in and pray to hang the concentric lock.

It is said that the Magpie Bridge is a place where the old moon is cared for, and all couples who have a concentric lock with a wish written on it will have their wish come true.

Therefore, at this time of year, many people come here just to hang the concentric lock with their lover on the magpie bridge.

Tao Yao didn't really believe in this, but when it came to this time, he also wanted to join in the fun.

She took the dagger and sat under the porch, scribbling one stroke at a time, carving it very carefully, and she didn't notice that Lu Jiuyuan was standing behind her for a long time.

I wish to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated.

By the time she carved the words, it was already the middle of the moon.

She rubbed her sore neck and was about to get up, only to find that the other concentric lock she had placed aside had disappeared.

"It's weird, what about the concentric locks, why is it gone?"

She searched around, but couldn't find it, and her heart became more and more strange.

When she had just carved the lettering, she had obviously put another piece here.

But seeing that it was getting late, she didn't want to look for it again.

Forget it, it's gone, it's gone, anyway, the piece in her hand has already been engraved.

Originally, she bought two pieces, but she was also afraid that she would carve it badly for the first time, so she bought two pieces and kept one for backup.
