Chapter Twenty-Four: Getting Along Poorly

In fact, Qingrong and Xue Shao did not quarrel, and the reason why they gave people such an illusion was because of the awkward relationship between the two of them. I said I didn't know it well, but I did even the most intimate thing last night... It's said to be close, but from the first acquaintance to the present, I've only seen it a few times, and I don't even know the other party's preferences and habits... In addition, Qingrong didn't want to talk to him, and Xue Shao was silent, so the two naturally had nothing to say.

Xue Shao and Qingrong eat are completely different, when Qingrong eats, one bite after another, does not eat much, moves gently and elegantly, according to Wang's words, behaves in moderation, this is the etiquette and upbringing that an official woman should have. But on the other hand, Xue Shao eats very quickly, and a lot, and he sees the bottom of the bowl in a few clicks.

Qingrong said that he might be hungry, but he ate too casually, and he chewed the meat in his mouth, which was very informal. But there was no one in the room to speak, and the sound he made when he ate was very clear. Qingrong was a little disgusted, and inadvertently pulled the corners of her mouth, she ate two bites, and then she didn't have the heart to eat again.

Ah Zhen and Song Yue looked at each other, and they also looked embarrassed, how could this Ah Lang look like he had been hungry for several days?

Seeing Qingrong put down the chopstick, Xue Shao swallowed the food in his mouth and raised his eyes to look at her. He frowned and asked, "Are you full?" He just saw it, and she didn't eat much at all with just a few strokes of her chopsticks.

Qingrong said lightly: "Some have no appetite, you can eat." ”

Xue Shao lowered his eyes and said, "The kitchen is not to your taste?" ”

Qingrong shook his head, "You use it slowly, I'll go back to the room first." With that, he took Ah Zhen and Song Yue down, leaving Xue Shao alone in the same place.

After seeing her leave, Xue Shao ate the rice in his bowl in silence, he was wondering if he had made her unhappy, although he was not more thoughtful than a woman, but he also keenly felt the change in his appearance. Is she so unbearable to eat at the same table as herself? Even if you don't want to, you shouldn't use your body to put your gas, people don't eat, how can you be hungry like this?

Here, Qingrong just returned to the room and sat down, Ah Zhen and Song Yue are the people who have been in front of Qingrong for many years, and they can more or less guess the reason why Qingrong is like this.

Ah Zhen and Song Yue glanced at each other, but Song Yue said carefully: "Lady, I think Ah Lang treats Sanniang very well." Early this morning, the lady was still dressing up in the room, so he went to the kitchen and ordered that the future meals should be made according to the lady's preferences. ”

Ah Zhen also chimed in: "Yes, yes, although Ah Lang is a little stupid, he is not sloppy in his work. Seeing that Qingrong didn't speak, Ah Zhen's voice also weakened, "It's just that there are some minor problems on weekdays, but this is normal." ”

Qingrong said calmly: "Oh? I didn't know that you were now towards him, too. On the first day of his wedding, he made the people in his room speak for him, and if they wanted to call him stupid, they didn't think of it at all.

Song Yue persuaded: "Lady, it's not that we have to talk more. This couple lives, always understand each other, run in with each other, if the lady doesn't like it, always have to say to Ah Lang, you leave like this, just leave Ah Lang alone, is it a little inappropriate? ”

Qingrong is not an unreasonable person, she lowered her eyes and did not speak. She knew that what Song Yue said was good, and now that she had become husband and wife with him, even if it was not what she really expected, she should give both parties decency.

It was like this on the first day of the wedding, and it was really not what she should do.

She was thinking about how to alleviate the embarrassment between the two, and Xue Shao had already ordered Yun Niang to come over.

Yun Niang held two snacks in her hand, and she said with a smile: "Ah Lang said that the lady had no appetite just now, and she didn't eat anything, so she was afraid that the lady would be hungry, so she asked me to send a snack, and the lady tasted it?" ”

Qingrong was slightly stunned, thinking of Xue Shao, he was more considerate than his own bride. Qingrong nodded and said, "Put it down." ”

She glanced at it, and it was a golden cheesecake. She looked at this snack and couldn't help but think of the scene in the restaurant that day. Qingrong picked up a piece of golden crisp cheesecake, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and took a bite. She hadn't eaten what the restaurant had made, only tasted what she had made at home, and although it tasted different from what she had made at home, it was just as good.

She was silent, finished eating the piece in her hand, picked up another piece, and unconsciously ate two pieces. Yun Niang asked with a smile: "It seems that the lady really loves to eat, Ah Lang is really right." ”

It turned out that he mistakenly thought that he liked to eat this golden cheesecake, although she didn't like to eat it, but she didn't expect Xue Shao to pay attention to this. This cake is full of cheese, and I ate two pieces in succession, and after clearing my face, I felt that my mouth was greasy.

Yun Niang was careful and handed tea to Qingrong. Qingrong took it, took a sip, a little weak, she lowered her eyes and asked, "What is Ah Lang doing now?" ”

"I'm going to the study."

Qingrong nodded, thinking that Xue Shao was busy with important matters, so he didn't want to disturb him. This afternoon, Qingrong was not idle, she also carefully paid attention to the rules in this house and Lide Hall, when she got married, she also brought a lot of maids from her family, so the affairs in this courtyard need to be rearranged. It's just that she has just arrived, and she is not in a hurry to establish new rules, so she decided to take one step at a time.

Two days later, she and Xue Shao were going to visit the relatives and friends of the Xue family, and Qingrong asked the preferences and taboos of the Xue family when she greeted the Lu family this morning, and asked Yun Niang to pick out a few gifts in the afternoon, so that they could be brought when she visited.

The sun was setting in the west, and it was time for dinner.

Qingrong was a little reluctant about the noon incident, and in the evening, he sent Ah Zhen to invite Xue Shao to have a meal. She was determined to have a good chat with Xue Shao and ask him to change this problem, so that she could not go out like this in the future.

Seeing that Xue Shao was coming, Qingrong asked someone to serve the food, she handed him a spoon, and was thinking about how to speak.

Xue Shao asked her, "Do you have an appetite tonight?" ”

Qingrong smiled and nodded.

The two of them moved, but Qingrong didn't eat, and she saw Xue Shao take a bite. Qingrong is a little weak-hearted, and she has never done anything to say a person's bad problems like this, not to mention that this person is still her husband. A-Niang also said that this man mostly eats soft rather than hard, so she decided to knock on the side, "You seem to have a good appetite today." ”

Xue Shao hummed without raising his head.

Qingrong said again: "In the past, I was weak and had a bad spleen and stomach, so my grandmother found a doctor for me, and the doctor said that you have to chew and swallow slowly to benefit your spleen and stomach." You eat so fast, carefully hurt the spleen. ”

Xue Shao stopped and looked at her with raised eyes, a little surprised, he didn't expect Qingrong to care about him. He said, "It's okay, I'm used to it, I'm rougher." ”

Qingrong was not discouraged, she continued: "If you are okay for a while, you can accompany me to finish this meal slowly, okay?" ”

Seeing her posture, Xue Shao was stunned and couldn't say anything to refuse. But he didn't understand, "You want me to eat with you?" Didn't you see me at noon today and couldn't eat? ”

Qingrong was stunned, Ah Zhen and Song Yue were also frightened, although the lady said that she disliked it, but she didn't seem to mean it that way. Song Yue hurriedly came out to play the round and said, "Ah Lang, where is this?" You've misunderstood you. She also asked Ah Zhen to go to Ah Lang to have dinner in the afternoon, if you say so, why bother with this? ”

Qingrong lowered her head in a daze, and Xue Shao looked at her, his eyes were straight and sharp, as if he could see through Qingrong. He said, "Got it." I misunderstood. He seemed to understand why Qingrong was abnormal at noon, it turned out that he disliked his bad food.

Qingrong smiled at him, and Xue Shao said: "In the past, I went out with my father and brother, and it was common to sleep in the open air, and I didn't pay attention to it like this, I ate some biscuits and dried food at will, and sometimes the military situation was urgent, and I couldn't take care of it so much, so I had to gobble it up." After a long time, I got used to it. ”

His words made the master and servant of Qingrong silent.

The soldiers fought abroad, bloody battlefields, poor conditions, and hardships, where did those literati and scholars come from? can live a peaceful life now, it is all because of their existence, and now I have to accuse him for this, which really shouldn't be.

Qingrong lowered his head and smiled with relief: "It's me who didn't think about it, if you get used to it, then be so." ”

"But you don't like it." Xue Shao knew that Qingrong didn't like him like this. "I'll pay attention when I eat with you." After speaking, he was still afraid that Qingrong would not believe it, so he chewed and swallowed slowly according to Qingrong's appearance to avoid making a sound.

Qingrong looked at his dark eyes, a little at a loss, she didn't know what to say, just smiled, "Eat more vegetables." ”

After dinner, Qingrong went to the clean room and took a bath and freshened up. Xue Shao knew that Qingrong loved to be clean, and he also consciously went to wash.

When he returned to the room, he happened to see the clear-faced maid Song Yue walking over with a bowl of steaming black potion.

He frowned and asked, "Is there anything wrong with her?" How to drink the medicine. ”

Seeing that it was Xue Shao, Song Yue hurriedly saluted and explained with a smile: "Oh, so that Ah Lang knows that this is a decoction that the lady has to drink every day, which is used to recuperate her body, and the lady is weak, so it has been going on for several years." It was supposed to be twice a day, but this morning I was in a hurry, so it was delayed until now. ”

Xue Shao nodded and advised, "In the future, her medicine must be delivered on time." ”

Song Yue pursed her lips and snickered, "The maid knows." ”

The two entered the house one after the other, and Qingrong had already removed the hairpin ring and sat at the table. Xue Shao watched her finish drinking the potion, and the maid also consciously retreated, leaving the two of them alone.

Xue Shao looked at Qingrong and said, "I'm done." ”

There were only two people left, and the atmosphere was a little delicate, Qingrong nodded, "Then let's rest." ”

Qingrong walked to the front of the couch, Xue Shao looked at her with bright eyes, Qingrong saw it, and her heart beat fast unconsciously, but she didn't want to. Yesterday was a newlywed, she will respond, today...

Xue Shao held Qingrong's hand, Qingrong broke away, and said with a soft smile: "I drank the medicine, I'm a little tired, let's rest early today, and I have to go to my uncle's house tomorrow." ”

She smiled openly, Xue Shao understood, and did not force her, but there was a sense of loss when she got out of bed with a clear face and turned her face and did not recognize people. Last night, she wasn't. I can't think about it anymore, Xue Shao said secretly, if I think about it again, I'm afraid I won't sleep tonight...

The lights in the room had been extinguished, only the sound of breathing could be heard, Qingrong slept in it, with her back to Xue Shao, Rao was like this, she could also feel his burning gaze and heavy breathing.

She closed her eyes, ignored it, thought about what she had to do in the past few days, and slowly fell asleep, not noticing that the people around her couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and got up and went to bed.
