When Bai Su heard that the salad was coming, she became energetic again and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I'll go right away!"
Looking at Bai Su's bouncing back, Shalu asked, "Isn't this Bai Su? Why is she here again?"
Xia Yuanqiu said: "You can come, but she can't? She only ran here every two days because of you. Don't pretend to be blind."
Shalu didn't know why. His mother had mentioned it to him many times, but he just couldn't express his position. Regarding emotional matters, if you like it, you just like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it. You won't force yourself to like someone just because of what someone said.
He smiled dryly and changed the subject: "Do you need me to do anything?"
Xia Yuanqiu pointed in the direction of the kitchen: "Maybe you can help with the dishes."
Shalu thought that Bai Su was going to the kitchen just now, and knew Xia Yuanqiu's intention, so he smiled and said: "I was in a hurry just now and forgot to wash my hands. I will go to your room to find water to wash my hands first."
Water is very scarce in Donghai Kingdom, but Xia Yuanqiu's house is never short of water, and there is enough to sell.
Shalu came to Xia Yuanqiu's house, found water in the basin on the shelf in the corner, washed it carefully, and took a cloth nearby to wipe the water drops on her hands. It felt as familiar and casual as her own room.
There were no extra decorations in the room, but it was very clean and tidy. The placement of everything had not changed since the first time he saw it. From this, one could see a person's character. She was careful and rigorous.
In particular, she has extremely strict requirements on herself. She is not like ordinary girls who think about dressing up and buying makeup and clothes all day long. It seems that there are only three things in her mind: continuous practice of cultivation and continuous improvement of alchemy. And eating and sleeping.
He heard footsteps and thought it was Yuan Qiu who came to him for dinner. He quickly turned around with a smile, only to see his mother walking in.
"Yuan Qiu said you came to wash your hands, why didn't you go out for so long? Girl Su has been waiting for you for a long time." Mother Sha stepped forward to hold her son's hand. After taking a few steps, she stopped again and looked up. The son's face said seriously: "Lü'er, tell mother the truth, do you like Yuan Qiu?"
Shalu's heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and she quickly retracted her hand and said, "What, what's the matter? Mom, don't talk nonsense!"
Mother Sha looked at her son's suddenly unnatural face, his evasive eyes, and his red face, all of which confirmed what she said.
"You don't have to hide it from Mom. Mom is someone who has been here before. She can tell at a glance if this is the case. I don't blame you for having such unreasonable thoughts. That girl Yuan Qiu is so nice. It's normal for you to like her. , However, mother still wants to advise you. Yuan Qiu only has her husband in her heart. No matter how hard you try, it won’t work. You’d better give up on this idea as soon as possible. I think Su Yatou is quite good and lively. The most important thing is that she likes you wholeheartedly, which is more precious than anything else."
Shalu frowned and said, "Mom, I can handle my own affairs, so don't worry about it."
Shamu sighed: "Yes, yes, it's just me worrying. When you are older, I can't control you anymore. But you have to remember that you are a child of a good family, and you must never do anything bad. The husband and wife are good to each other." You can't ruin someone's marriage, it's a sin, do you hear me?"
Shalu said: "Mom, I understand, go out, the food is cold." Shalu looked helpless and melancholy. She didn't want to continue this debilitating topic, so she had to drag her mother out of the room.
