Chapter 138: A Little Lost

The next day, Jiang Bugui was still used to getting up early and practicing in the courtyard. Jiang Bugui had just practiced swordsmanship for a while when he heard someone walking towards his courtyard. With Jiang Bugui's current martial arts, within a radius of 100 meters, even ordinary martial arts masters perform light skills, and it is difficult to avoid Jiang Bugui's eyes and ears.

When Jiang Bugui heard someone approaching, he guessed that Chen Dacheng should have sent someone to find him, so he stopped practicing his sword and stood in the courtyard waiting for the arrival of that person. After a while, Jiang Bugui saw Chen Hongying walking in from outside. And he was red-faced, and he still had a basin of water in his hand, and a face cloth was placed in the basin. Jiang Bugui suddenly felt very strange, although the Mandarin Duck Villa was not big, it also had hundreds of subordinates and more than a dozen subordinates. How can you let Chen Hongying, who is now actually in charge of the power of Mandarin Duck Villa, personally send face wash to the guests?

Then he glanced at Chen Hongying suspiciously, and then hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to take the basin in Chen Hongying's hand. But Chen Hongying did not give the water basin to Jiang Bugui, but put the water basin directly on the stone table in the courtyard. With a red face, he said unnaturally: "At this time, I will boil hot water for you, you hurry up and wash up, my father will let us go to his place later...... I have something to tell you. After speaking, he stood aside with a red face and waited for Jiang Bugui to wash.

And at this time, Jiang Bugui was even more strange, looking at Chen Hongying's flushed face and delicate face. Jiang Bugui was a little distracted, but he immediately woke up and hurriedly said: "How dare you bother, Miss Chen personally boiled water for me, I am really flattered." I'm really scared, thank you. After speaking, Jiang Bugui bowed deeply to Chen Hongying.

And Chen Hongying was not accepted by Jiang Bugui's courtesy, but avoided it sideways. Then he said to Jiang Bugui: "I'll fetch water for you to wash, it's originally me...... You don't have to thank me. Don't you know...... Forget it, you probably don't really know. But you don't have to be polite to me, and don't call me Miss Chen in the future. Just call me Red...... Just call it by name. Chen Hongying stammered these words, but her face was already red to her neck, and it looked unnatural to lower her head.

And at this time, Jiang Bugui felt even more strange, he really didn't understand why this Chen Hongying had such an expression, and he didn't know why this Chen Hongying would say that fetching water for herself was what she should do. Jiang Bugui immediately looked at Chen Hongying suspiciously, and then said, "Miss Chen, this is ......" Jiang Bugui was interrupted by Chen Hongying as soon as he said this.

But seeing Chen Hongying interrupting Jiang Buhui's words, she blushed and said a little angrily: "Don't call me Miss Chen, did you hear?" Anyway, you will understand in the future, we ...... You'd better wash up! The water will be cold in a while. And my father is still waiting for us to come over?" After speaking, Chen Hongying pointed to the basin and motioned for Jiang Bugui to wash up quickly.

Jiang Bugui saw Chen Hongying say this, although his stomach was full of doubts, but under Chen Hongying's urging. had to wash his face in a hurry, and when Jiang Bugui finished washing his face, Chen Hongying immediately handed over the face cloth, Jiang Bugui felt abnormal at this time.

Jiang Bugui, who came from later generations, knew that in the current era, there are many constraints between men and women, not as casual as in modern times. But now this Chen Hongying is indeed equivalent to serving herself to wash, although in this era, the status of women is lower than that of men. But this kind of serving men is definitely not something that can be done casually. Generally, except for maids, women will never serve others. Ordinary women serve their husbands, and even fathers generally do not have such treatment. For a while, Jiang Bugui couldn't figure it out.

And Jiang Bugui has long noticed since he saw Chen Hongying, this Chen Hongying's hair is tied up, and in this era, Jiang Bugui knows that generally women who are not married have their hair draped. And when a woman ties up her long hair, it means that she is already a wife, so she will dress like this. And if the husband dies, he will change to another costume. Since this Chen Hongying is married, and judging from the outfit, her husband is still alive. Although he didn't see him at yesterday's banquet, Chen Dacheng introduced Chen Hongying's husband to himself. But now that Chen Hongying came to serve him to wash, Jiang Bugui couldn't help frowning.

At this time, Chen Hongying also saw Jiang Bugui's doubts, first stuffed the face cloth into Jiang Bugui's hand, and then said with a red face: "Hurry up and wipe your face! I know you have doubts in your heart, and you will understand when you meet my father." After speaking, Chen Hongying blushed and turned her head to look away.

Jiang Bugui took the face cloth in confusion and quickly wiped his face. Then Chen Hongying took Jiang Bugui and walked towards Chen Dacheng's small courtyard when Jiang Bugui first came to Mandarin Duck Villa yesterday. Along the way, Chen Hongying kept walking beside Jiang Bugui, and was still half a step behind. Along the way, Chen Hongying never spoke to Jiang Bugui. But the afterglow in Jiang Bugui's eyes could be seen that Chen Hongying was secretly looking at Jiang Bugui intentionally or unintentionally. Jiang Bugui saw that Chen Hongying didn't speak, and Jiang Bugui himself was even more confused now and didn't know what to say. So the two of them walked silently all the way to Chen Dacheng's courtyard.

When they came to the gate of Chen Dacheng's small courtyard, the two stopped. At this time, Chen Hongying stepped forward and said to a sentry standing guard at the door: "You go to report to my father, and say that Zhu Zhi and I came to see my father." After speaking, Chen Hongying took a step back again and stood beside Jiang Bugui.

At this time, the sentry immediately said: "Mrs. Zhu, the owner of the village has already explained, Young Master Zhu and Mrs. Zhu don't need to report when they come, just go in to see the owner." The owner is already waiting for the two. So two of you, please come in. With that, the sentry immediately stepped aside and continued to stand guard. At this time, Jiang Bugui also saw that everything in Mandarin Duck Villa was not like a villa in the rivers and lakes at all, but directly like a military camp, and Chen Dacheng's residence was like a big tent of the Chinese army.

When the sentry retreated, Jiang Bugui and Chen Hongying immediately entered the door and walked inside. And Jiang Bugui heard from the sentinel's name to Chen Hongying just now, this Chen Hongying's husband should be surnamed Zhu. And it seems that Chen Dacheng has already explained to the sentinel, and he is the son of another commander, Zhu Yu, so the sentinel calls himself Young Master Zhu. The combination of these two titles made Jiang Bugui feel the same feeling in his heart, and then when he entered the door, Jiang Bugui secretly glanced at Chen Hongying with the afterglow of what he saw. found that Chen Hongying's beautiful eyes were also looking at her, and then the two looked at each other. Jiang Bugui felt a sudden jump in his heart. And Chen Hongying's face also became redder. Then the two quickly turned their heads and looked away.

When the eyes of the two separated, Jiang Bugui suddenly lost his mind, for the first time in his life, he saw a woman who made his heart beat, but this woman was already married. So Jiang Bugui felt a little pity in his heart, and at the same time a little lost. Immediately, the two did not speak, and walked silently towards the council hall in the small courtyard where Chen Dacheng lived.
