Chapter Forty-Six: I Don't Care, You Have to Sleep in the Same Room with Me
In front of a six-person-high gate, Chu Yuan dragged Shangguan Caidie's clothes.
"Caidie, such a big mansion, don't tell me it's your ......"
His voice had just fallen.
I saw that the originally closed door slowly opened a crack.
An old man with gorgeous hair and very well-dressed clothes showed half of his body.
His wrinkled eyes lifted tiredly.
When his gaze fell on Shangguan Caidie, those eyes seemed to suddenly be twenty years younger.
Even the wrinkles have shrunk, and the eyes that were empty at the beginning are now full of light.
He excitedly shouted inside, "Miss is back!" ”
Chu Yuan leaned forward with a puzzled face, listening to the loud footsteps coming from the courtyard wall that grew to the corner of the street.
The door was opened by the busy servants.
The maids flocked to Shangguan Caidie's side one after another, completely ignoring Chu Yuan, who was standing on the side, and squeezed him out.
"Miss, you haven't been back for more than a year, and we miss you to death."
"Miss, you seem to have lost a lot of weight, you must pay attention to taking care of your body, we are still waiting for you to bring your uncle back."
The maids hugged Shangguan Caidie into the mansion with admiration and longing.
In the courtyard, a group of small people stood in two rows on the bluestone road.
"Welcome home!"
The earth-shattering shout made Chu Yuan, who was squatting next to the stone lion outside the door, tremble.
Along the way, it is the largest of this mansion.
And it seems that this courtyard is really Shangguan Caidie's. 、
It's over, Chu Yuan roared in his heart.
"Isn't this going into the wolf's den and letting her slaughter it, no, I have to run away!"
He had just lifted his hem and was ready to sprint, and he hadn't taken one foot yet.
A crumpled and withered hand suddenly rested on his shoulder.
Chu Yuan trembled all over, and he slowly turned his head.
The white-haired butler's old face suddenly appeared in the darkness.
His deep voice sounded in Chu Yuan's ears.
"My lord, where are you going, our favorite guest from the Shangguan Mansion to visit."
The sweat on Chu Yuan's face was rising, and he waved his hand and said, "Aha, I was just passing by, the old man, I was really just passing by, and I didn't know your young lady." ”
"Xiao Yuanzi, don't come in soon, let's get home~"
Shangguan Caidie's voice came from the courtyard.
Outside the door, Chu Yuan and Steward Lin stared wide-eyed.
"I don't know who Xiao Yuanzi is."
Steward Lin smiled on his face, and the wrinkles that had gone through the vicissitudes of life were even deeper, especially around the corners of his eyes, which looked like the stomach of the cow was alive.
"It's a big night, you're the only one standing at the door, it's not you, is it a ghost?"
Chu Yuan felt a very terrifying deterrent on this old man.
Those pale blue eyes with huge pupils and very few whites stared at Chu Yuan like hooks.
He swallowed as he watched as the old man put his hand on his shoulder again.
"Young man, old man, I ......"
As soon as Lin Ping's words were halfway through, Shangguan Caidie walked out.
Holding Chu Yuan's arm with both hands, poked his face and smiled, "What's the matter, are you scared?" ”
"You talk~"
Chu Yuan's throat twitched, he didn't listen to what Shangguan Caidie said at all.
His eyes were always on Lin Ping's body.
The majestic murderous aura in Lin Ping's eyes slammed back and forth on his body like a knife.
The 60-year-old man stood quietly under the red lantern, and a fire seemed to be burning behind him.
In the flames, a huge demonic figure held a double axe, flashing sharp fangs, and smiled at Chu Yuan in horror.
"Xiao Yuanzi, what's wrong with you, why are you breaking out in a cold sweat?"
Shangguan Caidie wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve.
Chu Yuan hurriedly waved his hand; "Hey~ Men and women don't kiss, I'll just come by myself."
"Hmph, I was thinking about it just now, but now I'm pretending to be a gentleman?"
I saw that the ghost behind Lin Ping had already floated towards Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan's heart was crying.
Please, don't say it, this old man is not normal!
"Look at me, I haven't had time to introduce it, Uncle Lin, this is our uncle from Shangguan Mansion~"
Chu Yuan saw the green tendons on his sideburns suddenly burst out.
He flicked his sleeves, his eyes were like knives, and he looked back and forth on Chu Yuan's red-robed eunuch suit.
"Xiao Yuanzi, come in with me, I've been cooking in the back kitchen, I haven't eaten for a day, and I'm really a little hungry."
"Uncle Lin, it's been a long time since I've drunk with you, I'm going to drink more tonight~"
When the old man's gaze moved to Shangguan Caidie, his whole person changed.
I saw the smile on his face and the hands that had nowhere to put them overlapped.
"Miss's drinking, the old man is ashamed of himself."
"Uncle Lin, you are too humble, but you are only allowed to drink a few more drinks tonight, and your body must be maintained at all times."
"Let Miss miss it, the old slave has missed Miss very much this year......"
Chu Yuan watched him wipe the sincere tears on his face, and took the opportunity to stroke his chest and gasp for breath.
Shangguan Caidie slapped him: "What is this, where is it uncomfortable?" ”
Chu Yuan hurriedly said: "Well, why don't I go out and rent a house to live in, isn't it too conspicuous to live here?" ”
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Caidie said angrily: "The mansion left by my father, what is unseemly, if you dare to leave, hum~"
Chu Yuan, the little pink fist in Wang Xuan's realm, didn't want to taste it.
"Come in with me, the house is all cleaned up."
"Uncle Lin, let's go~"
On the round table, Chu Yuan was holding the rice bowl, and Shangguan Caidie was sitting next to him, vigorously sandwiching meat and vegetables into his bowl.
"Xiao Yuanzi, you try this, Aunt Mei's craftsmanship is good."
"This is not bad, you can eat it~"
Behind the mountains of vegetables are a pair of sharp eyes.
Chu Yuan sat opposite Lin Ping, really like sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in his back.
"Caidie, that, will you sleep in the same room with me at night?"
As soon as his words landed, Lin Ping's white beard suddenly stood up, but he still clinked glasses with Shangguan Caidie with a smile on his face.
Shangguan Caidie's cheeks were flushed, and the aroma of wine was revealed from between her lips and teeth.
"Think beautifully, there are many houses in the second courtyard, you live in the easternmost room, it is quiet there, and I live in the west wing."
Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "No, I'm afraid to sleep alone!" ”
Shangguan Caidie couldn't stop laughing: "Xiao Yuanzi, your reason is very lame, I won't sleep in the same room with you if you say anything." ”
Lin Ping held the wine glass to his mouth, and his eyes didn't move half a minute from Chu Yuan's body for a moment.
"Miss, Rong Laonu took the liberty of asking, when did you and your uncle get married?"
Chu Yuan stretched out his hand to stop Shangguan Caidie from speaking, but unfortunately he didn't have time.
"We haven't gotten married yet, we're in the palace, and we plan to keep everything simple, and we'll wait until the errand is over."
"Oh~"
The corners of Lin Ping's mouth were slightly hooked, and he looked at Chu Yuan as if he were looking at a dead man.
Chu Yuan immediately hugged Shangguan Caidie's arm drinking, and the wine accidentally spilled out.
"What are you doing, why did you start to be abnormal as soon as you left the palace?"
Chu Yuan begged: "Didn't Your Majesty ask you to protect me all the time, you have to sleep in a room with me at night." ”
"Wishful thinking, eat obediently."
