Chapter 492 Want to make soup?

Suzhou City is only a few hundred miles away from Yangzhou.

The hustle and bustle caused by Lin Ruhai, a second-rank member of the CPC Central Committee, returned home for burial that day. The dust has settled, and Suzhou City has once again returned to the tranquility and prosperity of its "paradise on earth".

“Cough cough cough~~”

In a beautifully and elegantly decorated room in the deep and simple courtyard of the deep house, the sound of a girl coughing suddenly came.

The maid behind the screen looked up when she heard the sound, immediately picked up the large cloak next to her, walked behind the delicate and thin girl under the west window, put the cloak on her body, and then gently He advised: "Girl, it's windy here, it's better to go inside and take a rest."

"Tomorrow I will send the coffin out of the city for burial. If the girl falls ill at this time, what should I do... ”

After admonishing the girl several times in a row, the girl remained silent and even pursed her mouth slightly. The maid knew that if she tried to persuade her again, she would make people unhappy again, so she could only shake her head and turn around to look around the room. He moved the brazier closer and closed all the windows in other directions in the room.

I deliberately closed the door in front of the girl, but I was afraid that the girl would lose her temper. After standing for two seconds, she suddenly smiled and said: "Girl, let me ask you a question, which direction is Yangzhou in Suzhou?"

Perhaps her laughter was too harsh, so the girl finally turned around and looked She stared at her maid Zijuan with her watery eyes. From the cunning look on her face, the smart girl was keenly aware of something.

He glared at the other person and said nothing.

Sure enough, Zicuckoo smiled to herself and said: "I have never read a book or looked at a map. I didn't know where Yangzhou was at first, but recently I suddenly understood it."

After saying that, Zicuckoo took two steps forward, stood in front of the window, raised her orchid finger in front of the girl, and pointed outside: "Yangzhou is in that direction, right? Let me see, it is It's facing northwest. Hahaha, girl, please tell me if you're right. If someone asks me this question in the future, I can brag about my knowledge to others."

She looked so yin and yang. , the girl's face immediately turned red, and she stood up in embarrassment.

"Hey Zicuckoo, you are so annoying, cough~"

As expected, a sick person cannot be excited. Before she finished speaking, the girl He covered his heart and coughed again.

Seeing this, Zijuan didn’t dare to tease her anymore and hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

The girl didn’t appreciate it either. She twisted her body and pretended to be angry.

She naturally listened to Jia Lian and stayed in Suzhou to replace her father.Daiyu is standing guard.

Since these days, apart from going to kowtow in front of her father's coffin and burn paper every day, Daiyu basically stays in her room, living a life of two things and one thing.

The days were already cold and boring, and spring was the season when she was most likely to get coughs. The two factors made her feel more and more depressed and unhappy.

The only thing that made her feel at ease was recalling the moments on the boat with her second brother Jia Lian and the words he used to make her happy, so she couldn't help but sit alone. Stay in a daze by the window.

She didn’t mean to be a “Wangfu Stone”, but she felt something in her heart, so she couldn’t help but sit facing the direction of Yangzhou. Who knew that Zijuan, as a maid, would dare to make fun of her!

It doesn’t make sense.

Seeing Daiyu holding the table with one hand and being angry, obviously not being coaxed, Zijuan seemed to know that she was in trouble, so Yingying smiled and said: "Don't worry, girl, unless there is something really wrong with Mr. Lian, he will leave." It’s something that should not be discussed, otherwise he will definitely return to Suzhou before the master is buried.

So, the girl should take good care of herself, maybe he will arrive in the afternoon?”
< br />When Daiyu heard this, she was successfully diverted.

Of course she remembered that Jia Lian promised her that he would come back before her father was buried to help her take care of her internal and external affairs.

But she also remembered that she also felt sorry for Jia Lian, so that he would not have to rush back and forth between the two places and make herself so tired.

Seeing the date of her father’s burial approaching, her mood became unpredictable again.

To this day, even she doesn’t know whether she wants Jia Lian to listen to her instructions or not.

Just when the master and servant were having an argument, they suddenly heard the loud sound of horse hooves coming from the front yard, accompanied by the horse's high neighing, which seemed unusually clear in the quiet old house.

Zijuan hurriedly smiled and said: "Look what I said, listen to this noise, Second Master Lian must be back! Girl..."

What else does Zijuan say? , but saw that his girl walked into the room without saying anything after being stunned for a moment.

Zijuan laughed and immediately followed in without hesitation.

　……

“The Marquis is back.”

“The Marquis!”

Jia Lian left behind a heavy With the carriage and horse baggage, he quickly rode back to the Lin family's old house.

When the people he arranged to work at the old house heard the news, they came to greet him one by one, but Jia Lian was nowhere to be seen.

　“FullUncle, where is the Marquis? "

"Hehehe..."

Lin Youquan, who was standing in the courtyard and gently beating his legs, saw others coming around and immediately stood up straight with a smile. He got up.

"The Marquis ordered all those working on matters to gather in the meeting hall in a quarter of an hour. "

"Uh, yes. "

In Daiyu's room, Daiyu was urgently putting on her makeup. How could she have known that Jia Lian had arrived so quickly.

Hearing the sound of communication outside the door, Daiyu, who realized that she had only finished half of the work, was in a hurry. In a hurry, she shouted to Zicuckoo: "Quick, help me stop him!" "

Zijuan is speechless, my good girl, do you think anyone is you? How dare we.

But there is no need to worry about whether to disobey or not. , because as she turned her head, she saw Jia Lian, who was dressed in casual clothes, walked with a mighty look, and was handsome and majestic, walking in from the door.

"Sister Lin...! "

Daiyu also spotted Jia Lian's figure in the glass mirror. With a shy face, she moved her hands faster and scolded: "Why did you barge in all of a sudden? Get out! ”

Jia Lian came over excitedly just to see Daiyu earlier.

Unexpectedly, he was chased away by Daiyu as soon as he entered the door. He thought for a moment that he had heard wrongly. .

After I stopped and took a look, I realized. Haha, it turned out that I blamed myself for coming too fast and not giving her time to touch up her makeup!

This shows that There are two questions.

First, it is naturally Daiyu’s feelings for him. After all, everyone understands that women want to please themselves.

Second, Fairies usually like to be lazy and don't even apply makeup seriously. This time they were suddenly attacked and inspected, and their secrets were revealed.

Jia Lian, who wanted to understand this, ignored Daiyu's shyness and walked directly to her He picked up a stool beside him and sat down leisurely, obviously wanting to watch Daiyu touch up her makeup.

In this way, Daiyu had no nerve to move. She quickly glanced at Jia Lian. , don’t look too far, don’t dare to let Jia Lian look at her.

In fact, Daiyu doesn’t wear much makeup. She feels that she is naturally beautiful and looks beautiful no matter what she wears.

It’s just ten After not seeing Jia Lian for many days, I suddenly heard that Jia Lian might be back. I subconsciously reflected that I had not put on makeup in the morning, so I immediately went back to the house and looked in the mirror.

When a girl looks in the mirror, there is nothing wrong with her. She had to do some tracing. She didn't know that Jia Lian would come over so quickly. In fact, if she didn't do the tracing, she wouldn't be too ashamed to see Jia Lian. It was done in such a hurry., she always felt something was wrong in her heart and didn't want Jia Lian to look at her.

Jia Lian couldn't help but laugh when he saw how cute she looked.

"What, could it be that after more than ten days without seeing each other, my fairy-like sister Lin has become so ugly that she doesn't dare to see people anymore?"

The more beautiful she is, the more beautiful she becomes. The less afraid she is of being called ugly. So Daiyu knew that Jia Lian was teasing her on purpose, but on the surface, she still had to pretend to be angry, otherwise what should she do?

"No one dares to meet people anymore. It's all your fault. You broke in without their consent, and now you're saying they're bad!"

" Hahaha... Huh."

Jia Lian was deliberately surprised and tilted his head towards Daiyu, "Sister Lin, what's wrong with your face?"

What?

Daiyu was startled, and quickly raised her head to look in the middle of the mirror. There was nothing on her face...

Still confused, she noticed that the big face next to her was looking proud. Daiyu didn't know that she had been deceived, so she blushed and spat lightly. She was too embarrassed to turn her head away from Jia Lian, but lowered her head in shame.

Daiyu is the beauty of heaven, and in such a coy look, she is even more delicate than the most beautiful hibiscus flower, and it is a sight that never gets tired of looking at her.

Just looking at it, the smile on Jia Lian's face faded a little.

Daiyu was already slender, but now that only more than ten days had passed, Jia Lian keenly discovered that her body seemed to be thinner again.

And taking a look inside the house, it was already March, but Daiyu still needed a charcoal pot for burning in her house.

Daiyu was ashamed to be looked at by Jia Lian, so she wanted to look away from Jia Lian. When she raised her head, she noticed the change in Jia Lian's expression. She couldn't help but feel ashamed and looked at him with some doubts. Jia Lian.

Jia Lian laughed again: "Did Sister Lin just put on makeup? I think that with Sister Lin's overwhelming peach blossom appearance, even without any decoration, she is the most beautiful, without any makeup at all. ."

If Jia Lian hadn't said similar words of love more than once since the relationship between the two was established, Ren Daiyu, a graceful and reserved little girl, might not have been able to bear it.

Even so, Daiyu still lowered her eyebrows and stared at Jia Lian, pretending to be angry: "Who wants you to care? Whether I paint or not, it's none of your business."

"Well, it's none of my business, I just wanted to express my opinion."

Daiyu didn't know what to do. She knew that she couldn't defeat Jia Lian in many arguments. of. The reason why she can win most of the time is because Jia Lian lets her do it.

Thinking about this makes me feel ashamed and happy at the same time. He didn’t talk back again.

Who knew if Jia Lian would accept the favor and teased her again: "Besides, there are only three of us in this room. If Sister Lin's makeup wasn't painted for me, then maybe it was painted for Zicuckoo. "Did you see it?"

"I drew it for myself!"

Zicuckoo only stood aside for a short while and realized that she had seen a lot. I shouldn’t have read it, and listened to a lot of things I shouldn’t have heard. I shook my head, turned around and exited.

Sure enough, Zijuan is sensible. Once she left, Daiyu became more natural.

Although his face was still red, he dared to look up at Jia Lian. Seeing a slight trace of dust on Jia Lian's face, she couldn't help but said: "Didn't I tell you that if you were busy, you wouldn't have to rush back? Why are you here anyway?"

Look at Daiyu He spoke softly, which greatly benefited Jia Lian.

Picked up one of Daiyu’s little hands and held it in her palm, then smiled and said: “It’s time to come back. If you don’t come back, I won’t worry.”

“What do you have? Don't worry." Daiyu pulled her little hand as usual, and when she realized it couldn't move, she let it go, but her face became more and more shy.

Because, the feeling of being held by Jia Lian's little hand is very comfortable, and it feels like being cared for wholeheartedly.

"Of course I don't trust my sister Lin. She is so beautiful, like a fairy who doesn't eat fireworks from the world, how can she bear the intrusion of worldly affairs. Naturally, I, a layman, have to help her with these worldly affairs. Only when the whole power has been taken care of, I, a layman, can rest assured."

After hearing Jia Lian calling herself a common man and comparing her to a fairy, he rolled his eyes at Jia Lian angrily and spat: "Bah, you are slippery-tongued. ."

Daiyu's coquettish words, in Jia Lian's eyes, actually made him feel more happy than the coquettishness of a peerless beauty.

He took Daiyu’s hand and couldn’t help but get closer to her.

Sensing that their faces were getting closer and closer, Daiyu felt like there was a little deer pounding in her heart. Just when Jia Lian's face was less than three inches away from hers, she couldn't help but duck away with her pretty face.

"You, what do you want to do..."

Jia Lian, who failed to test again, smiled and pretended that nothing happened, "Nothing, I just saw There seems to be something on my sister's brow, but it disappears when I look closer. It's really strange."

Jia Lian's talk to himself did not dispel Daiyu's suspicion.

Daiyu glanced at her suspiciously and warily, smiled shyly, and then pretended to be calm and said: "You just came back, go back to the house and rest for a while.

I’ve had your room tidied up for you, and it’s in the yard next to it.

Xiang Ling..."

Daiyu suddenly took out the host's money, called Xiang Ling who was waiting outside, and led Jia Lian out.
/>
She didn’t dare to let Jia Lian stay any longer.

She was not stupid, so she naturally understood that Jia Lian just wanted to kiss her!

The most important thing is that , she realized that she had almost closed her eyes just now.

If she hadn’t been so embarrassed at the last moment and interrupted, wouldn’t Brother Lian have succeeded now?

Just thinking about it made her feel so ashamed that she was so weak.

At the same time, it was strange that Jia Lian had secretly kissed her little hand before, and when her father died, she I have been held in the arms of Brother Lian.

I have done such intimate things, how come I realize that Brother Lian wants to kiss me, but I am so nervous, so nervous?

Unable to think clearly, Daiyu could only lie on the table and think slowly. Just when she was about to fall asleep, Zijuan came into the room and woke her up.

Ask After checking Jia Lian's whereabouts, she cheered up, packed up and prepared to go out.

"Girl, where are you going? "

" "Don't worry about it, just follow me." ”

After a while, Zijuan, who followed Daiyu to the kitchen, realized that her girl was preparing to make a bowl of soup for Mr. Lian, who had come back from afar, to express her feelings.

Although he understood Daiyu’s mood, Zijuan felt it was quite annoying.

Having served Daiyu for so many years, Daiyu had never touched her hands with Yangchun water. How about making soup?
