Chapter 22: Disappointment
The maids and family members who passed by curtsy to Dou Lianyi one after another, and then rushed in again.
They held all kinds of dishes and delicacies in their hands, and the fragrance was overflowing, and some of them were even Dou Ripple that they could not see once or twice in the county king's mansion all year round.
"Who told you to send all this?"
Dou Lianyi stopped a maid who was about to walk into the courtyard and asked in a low voice.
"Back to the young lady's words, most of them were sent here at the request of the young master, saying that Dong Ge'er was frightened and sick in bed yesterday, and he had to make up for his body."
The maid stopped and replied honestly.
"Got it, go ahead."
When the maid entered the courtyard, Fu Qingcai was a little speechless and said, "Yesterday's ginseng beard was not enough for him to make up for his body." ”
"Let's go in and have a look."
Dou Lianyi frowned, did not answer, but took Fu Qing into the courtyard together.
When approaching the room where Dong Ge'er lived, Dou Lianyi not only didn't even smell the slightest smell of medicine, but on the contrary, a smell of knocked over honey came from the wide open door.
Sweet and greasy, at first glance it only makes people feel dizzy.
"What a taste!"
Dou Lianyi subconsciously took a few steps back, and his first reaction was that Lu Shangxuan had done something to harm him.
And Fu Qing on the side also felt that something was wrong, he stepped forward and blocked Dou Lianyi, his face was serious, and he looked around vigilantly.
"Young lady, are you coming to find Brother Dong?"
At this moment, a maid hurriedly walked over, saluted Dou Lianyi and asked cautiously.
Dou Lianyi recognized that this maid had some friendship with Bai Zhi, as if she was called Qing'er, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked in a cold voice, "What's going on here?" What about the Dongger people? ”
Qing'er pursed her lips in embarrassment, looking like she didn't dare to tell the truth.
Seeing this, Dou Lianyi had deeper doubts in her heart, her face was cold, and her voice was a little more chilly.
"Could it be that my young lady can't count what he asks!"
"Slaves don't dare!"
Dou Lianyi has always treated his subordinates with a good voice, where is there such a stern tone, it suddenly makes Qing'er's knees weak and kneels.
"If you still don't explain, I will come to your deed of sale and send you out of the county king's mansion!"
"Young lady spare your life, young lady," Qing'er was bluffed like this, and she didn't dare to have any thoughts of deception, she lowered her head and whispered in a fifteen-ten voice: "It was Brother Dong'er who wanted to smell the honey, so he asked us to knock over dozens of jars of summer honey on the ground, and also poured a lot of them into the aromatherapy furnace, which made the whole house have this sweet and greasy taste." ”
This level of absurdity even Dou Lianyi couldn't help frowning, and she subconsciously asked: "So Brother Dong'er is still in it now?" ”
"No, Brother Dong is tired of smelling that smell, and now he has changed to the room in the east."
"Ridiculous!"
Dou Lianyi finally couldn't hold back, and scolded angrily.
Qing'er didn't dare to speak, of course she knew how excessive this little master's behavior was, but what could she say if she was just a subordinate?
"Take me now!"
"Yes, young lady."
The three of them came to the east side of the courtyard one after the other, and Dou Lianyi did not alarm any of the subordinates, so he stood quietly outside the windowsill and looked in.
Dong Ge'er was reclining on the bed, his legs crossed and dangling without a match.
He had several plates of pastries in his hand, all of which he had bitten into halfway and tossed them aside.
Green smoke rose from the incense burner by the window, somewhat blurring Dou Ripple's vision.
She suddenly felt a little ridiculous, how could the lard be blinded in the previous life, so that she thought about educating him to be able to enter the cabinet and become a university scholar?
"Mother?"
Fu Qing keenly sensed that Dou Lianyi's mood was wrong, he tugged at the corner of her clothes and whispered.
"Let's go."
Dou Lianyi lowered his eyes, quickly came back to his senses, reached out to hold Fu Qing's little hand, and said in a low voice.
After the two of them had walked away, Dong Ge'er in the house lazily turned over and bit a grape handed to him by the maid.
"Little young master, the young lady came here just now, and she brought another young master......
A housekeeper bent over and walked into the house with a flattering smile, but before he could finish his sentence, Dong Ge'er angrily grabbed a large handful of grapes and smashed them.
"Shut up, what another little master, there is only one little young master in the county king's mansion!"
Dong Ge'er's little face was full of arrogance and arrogance, and he didn't take Dou Lianyi in his eyes at all.
He is the grandson of the county king's mansion, why is that little bastard named Fu Qing on an equal footing with him!
"Yes, young master."
The housekeepers and maids below were so frightened that they all knelt down, and no one dared to squeak again.
At this time, it is the season of summer to autumn, the temperature change in the morning and evening is like the face of a young child, and it is still a little cool in the morning, and it starts to be hot again at noon when the sun is shining.
Dou Lianyi lay down in the chaise longue in the courtyard early, and the sun on the top was blocked by the huge tree, which made her squint comfortably and doze.
"Young lady, are you still going to the little young master's yard today?"
Bai Zhi brought a dessert from outside and put it on the stone table, and asked casually.
"Go to Brother Dong'er," Dou Lianyi opened his eyes, got up and said a little indifferently, "Count it, I haven't seen him for a few days." ”
She was too lazy to dress up, her face was just lightly powdered, and she was wearing a light green top and bottom skirt, which looked like a clear and cool feeling.
A white magnolia hairpin was inserted obliquely into the bun that was pulled up, and a few thin silver strands hung down, which made her more hopeful and radiant when she walked.
I don't know if it's a habit left over from her previous life, Dou Lianyi will feel a little uncomfortable as long as she sees Dong Ge'er's unlearned appearance, and she simply rarely shows up in Dong Ge'er's yard.
And Dong Ge'er saw that no one was in charge of him, but he was even happier, and he made a lot of trouble in the yard by himself, where can he still care about studying and practicing martial arts.
So when Dou Lianyi quietly appeared in his yard, he saw him laughing loudly and letting those family members learn to crawl to himself.
"Young lady!"
A sharp-eyed maid saw Dou Lianyi, and she was so shocked that she hurriedly called out.
"It's better to be a human than a dog," Dou Lianyi said in a flat tone: "From today on, you all go to live in a kennel, okay?" ”
When those family members heard this, they all froze in place, neither getting up nor climbing, and a look of fear appeared on their faces.
Dong Ge'er raised his head a little sluggishly and looked over, and a flash of obvious displeasure flashed on his face.
However, he still walked over honestly and called in a low voice, "Mother, why did you come here today?" ”
Dou Lianyi glanced at the silent people in the courtyard, and asked with a flat face.
"Brother Dong, if I don't come, will you have more fun?"
