The moonlight is bright.
In the corner of the lake, water splashed and made crackling sounds.
Xiaodie covered her mouth, opened her eyes wide and screamed in surprise.
Luo Qingzhou actually caught a fish underwater.
The lake water is warm all year round, and it is even scalding hot at the deep bottom. Yet this fish is alive and kicking, struggling desperately in my hand, showing considerable strength.
The fish scales are a light blue color, shining brightly in the moonlight.
The fish was about a foot long and the meat looked quite plump.
Luo Qingzhou observed it carefully, then looked at the lush lotus clustered around the attic in the center of the lake, and became more confused.
It's really strange that with this kind of water quality, not only lotus flowers grow lushly, but fish also grow there.
"Sir, this fish is so beautiful, did they feed it?"
Xiaodie's face was full of curiosity.
Luo Qingzhou shrugged: "Who knows."
As he was about to let it go, he thought for a moment, raised his hand, and threw it back onto the shore.
Xiaodie was surprised and asked, "Sir, why did you throw it on the shore?"
Luo Qingzhou scrubbed his lower body and said, "I didn't eat enough tonight, so I'm a little hungry. Let's grill some fish later."
"ah?"
"Ah what? Hurry up and wash up and get ready to go upstairs."
"oh oh."
After washing, they went ashore, put on their clothes, took the fish, and returned to the yard.
Luo Qingzhou put the fish into the basin in the kitchen, washed his hands, went back to the room to change into clean clothes, and came out and said, "Xiaodie, can you kill fish?"
Xiaodie said with a bitter face: "Sir, I... I dare not..."
"Wait until I come back."
Luo Qingzhou prepared to go out to pay his respects to Miss Qin.
Xiaodie quickly followed to the door and reminded: "Sir, remember to ask Sister Bailing."
Without waiting for Luo Qingzhou to reply, she looked outside the door again and whispered, "Sir, since Sister Bailing said that, it means...it means that the young lady wants to sleep with you. You must take the initiative to say it."
Luo Qingzhou's expression changed, and he couldn't help but look at her a little more: "Xiao Die, you go out to learn things from those maids every day, it should be more than just school instruments and needlework, right?"
Xiaodie blushed immediately, lowered her head, and said shyly: "Well..."
But I didn't have the courage to say it out loud.
Luo Qingzhou heard what she was thinking: I also learned how to serve the master... I am a maid who is a concubine, and Sister Xiaotao taught me a lot of naughty things.
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
"Don't learn random things. Learn something useful. If you really can't refuse, just say you are still young and can learn later."
After Luo Qingzhou finished speaking, he walked out.
Xiaodie raised her head, looked at his receding figure, pouted her lips, and muttered a little aggrievedly: "I'm not a child anymore."
Then he looked down at his chest and sighed: "It's indeed a little small. I wonder if those things Sister Xiaotao said are useful..."
On the way, Luo Qingzhou was thinking about going out of the city to worship his mother tomorrow.
Normally, when a man gets married and his mother dies, he should take his new wife with him to pay respects to her.
This is how we can respect our mother and comfort her spirit in heaven.
However, he did not marry, but married into the wife's family.
Given the other party's status, position, and personality, it is impossible for him to go with him.
Besides, he doesn't care.
The two of them had already made it clear, so it was fine to just maintain a superficial relationship for the time being.
Don't disturb each other.
It was already good enough for him and Xiaodie to have a place to stay and live a life without worries about food and clothing. He could also hide under the protection of the Qin family and practice well.
What's more, the people in the Qin Mansion are really nice.
Thinking all the way, he soon arrived at the gate of Miss Qin's courtyard.
The gate to the courtyard was open and the moonlight was falling.
Bai Ling was wearing a pink dress, holding a freshly picked flower in her hand, leaning against the door frame, smiling at him like a fairy under the moon.
"Sir, do you think I'm beautiful?"
The pretty and tender girl smiled sweetly and waved the pink flower in her hand, saying, "Am I pretty, or is this flower pretty? If you give the wrong answer, don't even think about entering."
Luo Qingzhou said directly: "The flowers are beautiful."
Then he bowed and said, "Since Miss Bailing won't let me in, I'll take my leave."
Bai Ling: “…”
Luo Qingzhou pretended to leave.
Bailing stood up straight immediately, stamped her feet and snorted, "Son-in-law! You're so annoying! I'm going to call Chanchan!"
Luo Qingzhou stopped and looked at her without saying anything.
Bai Ling pouted, looked at him dimly and said, "I am very sad that my uncle treats me like this. I remember a few days ago, my uncle said he liked me and wanted me to be his concubine. How come he changed his mind in just a few days?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her calmly: "It's not that I changed my mind, it's that I can't get it, so there's no need to insist on it."
Bai Ling immediately showed an aggrieved expression on her face: "Uncle is so impatient, didn't I tell you that I can only agree to your request if the young lady agrees? You can go and beg the young lady."
Luo Qingzhou was hungry and thinking about the fish in the house. He didn't want to pretend to be nice to her anymore, so he bowed and said, "Miss Bailing, can I come in?"
Bai Ling's pretty face was full of resentment. She snorted and made way for him: "Sir, please go in. The young lady is reading in the back garden."
When Luo Qingzhou passed by her, he suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance of a girl. His heart trembled, and he stopped and turned to look at her.
Bailing blinked her dark and lively eyes: "Uncle, what's wrong?"
Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, then moved closer to her, lowered his head, and put his nose almost against her pretty face, sniffing the faint fragrance again.
Bailing was so scared that her head tilted back and pressed against the door frame. Her full breasts were raised high, almost touching his chest. She was shy and anxious: "Son-in-law, what...what are you doing? Don't do this...I'm so shy."
Luo Qingzhou stared at her pretty face from a close distance.
There was a fake look of panic and shyness on her face, but her complexion was still fair and tender, without even a hint of blush.
Luo Qingzhou just watched and sniffed without saying anything and without moving away.
Bailing bent her slender waist backward, tilted her pretty face up, blinked her charming eyes, her thick eyelashes trembling slightly, and was pitifully held against the wall by him like this.
At first it was false shyness, but as he stared at her so closely that even her breath fell on her face, two blushes finally crept up on her fair face. Her heartbeat quickened and her upright breasts rose and fell slightly.
"Aunt... Uncle... Don't be like this, I'm really shy..."
She begged for mercy softly, her pretty face rosy and her long eyelashes trembling shyly. Her eyes, like autumn water, reflected the handsome yet unfathomable face of the young man.
"I just said the wrong thing."
Luo Qingzhou finally made way, looked at her deeply, then turned and walked into the courtyard and headed towards the back garden.
Bailing was slightly stunned, still in the same posture as before, leaning against the door frame for a moment before she woke up in shock and quickly chased after him.
Catch up outside the round gate in the back garden.
The blush on her face had not yet faded, and she followed him and whispered, "What did you say wrong just now, Master?"
Luo Qingzhou stopped and turned to look at her cute, sweet, blushing face. His voice was surprisingly gentle: "In fact, Miss Bailing is much more beautiful than that flower."
After saying that, he entered the round door.
Bai Ling stayed where she was, still holding the flower in her hand, looking at his thin and tall figure, her ears echoing with his gentle words just now, her mind replaying the look he had just given her, her expression dazed and a little dazed...
But soon, the sound of sword practice in the garden woke her up.
"Stinky son-in-law, you are really good at teasing me, you bad guy!"
She stamped her feet and followed him in.
