The two guards looked at Du Suxi with a look of astonishment. They never expected that their most talented man in the capital would be molested by a man, a man who was still a young boy and could not be counted on!
While stunned, Du Qifeng coughed softly. He smiled generously.
"Young Master is so talented in literature, I really admire him."
Looking at his behavior, it seemed that he didn't care about Murong Fei. The two of them felt incredible again. Secretly sighing that Young Master Du is indeed the best young master in the world.
Such a polite and graceful person is really rare to find in the world. No wonder the princess in the palace has been clamoring to marry Mr. Du since she was a child. If they were women, I am afraid they would not be able to stop such a person. Be tempted.
This Mr. Du is really outstanding.
Du Suxi smiled. Just now, her mind was wandering, so she started to read the poem, thereby weakening the influence of Du Suxi's body on her thinking. Secondly, you can beat Johnnie To and keep him away from you.
I thought that even if Du Qifeng did not escape, he would keep his distance from himself. Unexpectedly, Du Qifeng actually praised himself. Du Suxi looked at Du Qifeng calmly and had to admit that this Du Qifeng was really a rare gentleman.
With a sigh, Du Suxi suppressed the remaining emotions in the body, and her eyes became clearer.
"I wonder what Mr. Du is looking for when he comes to see me today?"
The words were plain and calm, even with a hint of alienation. Compared with before, it was completely different.
Du Qifeng looked at the man in front of him and felt that he was becoming even more mysterious. He wanted to make friends with her, but thinking about his sister crying like a pear blossom in front of him, he still tolerated it because of his talent.
"I wonder if Mr. Murong ever remembered that he once gave a robe to my younger sister in Jinxiufang?"
So this is what happened? Is this the time to call for punishment? A flash of understanding flashed through Du Suxi's heart, and she couldn't help but feel funny when she saw Murong Fu's still humble and polite posture.
How could anyone be so polite when asking for help? Her nominal eldest brother really lived up to his reputation as a virtuous man.
Du Suxi looked at Du Qifeng and felt that it was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye.
Taking a deep breath, Du Suxi was thinking about how to speak. Mrs. Le came with several cups of tea. They were placed in front of Du Suxi and Du Qifeng and bowed. I resigned knowingly.
The two guards seemed to finally feel that they were a little redundant, so they hurriedly made an excuse and left.
To be honest, they really wanted to watch the fun, but considering their backgrounds, they didn't seem to be that easy to bully. If they heard something they shouldn't hear, they wouldn't know how they died. For a good life protect yourself. It is better to see no evil and hear no evil.
Shen Mu sat down generously next to Du Suxi, slowly drinking a cup of tea in front of him, without any intention of leaving. Naturally, Du Suxi would not ask Shen Mu to leave.
Although the person in front of her is her eldest brother, this time he comes not to drink tea and chat, but to trouble her. One more person is always more help. Although Du Suxi didn't think that a gentleman like Du Qifeng would embarrass herself.
"This tea is indeed good tea, but is it Biluochun from Dongting?" Du Qifeng took a sip of tea and suddenly said this. Du Suxi raised her eyes and looked at Du Qifeng calmly. He nodded as an answer.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move. At this time, Du Qifeng suddenly said this to her. Although she could not guess the meaning, she also understood that Du Qifeng would not say such a sentence for no reason. She's not in a hurry. If he doesn't speak, Johnnie To will naturally continue.
Du Qifeng didn't seem to be in a hurry. He held the tea cup and said with a smile.
"Drinking its taste, the first drink is light in color, fragrant and fresh; the second drink is emerald green, fragrant and mellow in taste; the third drink is clear in color, fragrant and sweet in the aftertaste. It is really as valuable as a treasure, just like appreciating a rare craftsmanship. The wonderful realm can be encountered but cannot be sought."
"Young Master is in a good state."
Du Suxi smiled. It's a compliment.
Du Qifeng didn't take it seriously at all and continued to speak.
"This Biluochun, if you gently put it into the water, the tea will sink to the bottom. It is known as "spring stains the bottom of the sea." There are thin water droplets on the tea leaves. After a while, almost all of them dance to the bottom of the cup, except for a few. The root tea leaves float on the water, most of them fall, and slowly bloom at the bottom of the water. The color is light green, fresh and tender, and the aroma is elegant. The leaves are slowly soaked, the color is yellow-green, and the aroma can be maintained for a long time. Biluochun's Ershui and Sanshui are slightly astringent in the mouth. , the sweet taste returns very slowly, but the lingering fragrance is far between the teeth and cheeks. "Clear and pure" is an appropriate description of this tea. If I am not wrong about this cup of tea, it is the best of the three. During the moon season, the dew is gathered by the virgin when the sky is slightly bright. Even in the palace, it is considered a precious tea. The young master is willing to take it out to entertain me. I am really honored. .”
This cup of tea actually has such a saying
Du Suxi blinked her eyes and thought that although she knew that Murong Fu's tea was expensive, she never thought that it was so expensive. Such tea, which was not even available in the palace, was actually obtained by Murong Fu. It must have been Murong Fu's tea. Identity is definitely not that simple!
He was secretly surprised in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all. Smiling slightly, Du Suxi pretended to be at a loss and spoke.
"Master Du is really discerning. This kind of tea,
In Moshang Xiangfang, it was only a few cups. If Mr. Du had not come to visit me today, I would have rarely had such tea. "
After saying that, Du Suxi looked very proud and looked at Du Qifeng calmly, but she felt a little more wary.
She didn't know whether Du Qifeng said this intentionally or unintentionally. If it was unintentional, then it would be fine. If he really meant it, then it would be too calculated. There was not much tea in the palace. If people knew that Mo Mo However, Shangxiangfang is used to receive guests casually. Regardless of whether it is true or false, it is definitely detrimental to the reputation of Moshangxiangfang.
There is a saying that goes, "Every man is not guilty, but he who is pregnant with jade is guilty." Once such news spreads, let alone true or false, it reaches the palace, fearing that Mo Shang Xiangfang will no longer have a foothold. If Du Qifeng really meant it, then the person in front of him was really too scheming.
Because of the throbbing in her heart, Du Suxi temporarily regarded Du Qifeng's words as unintentional.
Du Qifeng was holding the tea cup, his face was clear, and he was secretly surprised. He glanced at Du Suxi in surprise, but he didn't expect that the verbal trick he had set up would be easily seen through by the other party. He smiled and finally spoke.
"Mr. Murong really thinks highly of himself. In this case, why would the young master frame his sister? Let his sister be embarrassed in front of everyone? This is really not what a gentleman would do."
There was a hint of blame in his tone, but more of a pity, as if the person in front of him was his ignorant younger brother, and he was teaching this younger brother. He didn't have the slightest motivation to come to raise an army and question his crimes.
Such a weird feeling made Du Suxi unable to laugh anymore. She glanced at Du Qifeng warily, thinking that Du Qifeng was very scheming, could there be something behind his words. It's just that this matter must never be admitted. Once admitted, it means that Moshang Xiangfang is the enemy of the entire Du family.
Although Jingwei is about to become the imperial concubine, after all, Moshang Xiangfang's foundation is still shallow. How can it compare with the Du family, which has a century-old family heritage? Confronting each other now is undoubtedly asking for death!
Thinking of this, Du Suxi blinked blankly and looked at Du Qifeng. He said innocently.
"Mr. Du, what do you mean? I just met Du Xiaomei once by chance. I saw that she liked her, so I paid for her clothes. Mr. Du may not know that, although I have some money, I am not a person who likes to waste it. , My fair lady, a gentleman is so generous. If Du Xiaomei hadn’t been so stunningly beautiful, I wouldn’t have spent so much money. As for Du Xiaomei actually wearing that dress to participate in the Hundred Flowers Festival, I naturally felt deeply honored and felt that Du Xiaomei was somewhat interested in me. , but I didn’t expect that such an accident would happen... "
Du Suxi's words were precise and every sentence made sense. It's impossible to refute it. Du Qifeng's face looked a little ugly. Du Suxi took in his expression completely, but still pretended not to know and continued to sigh.
"It's a pity that such a beautiful woman didn't pay attention, and something like that happened. Alas, Mr. Du, I was also wrong in this matter. If I hadn't seen that Miss Du really liked the dress, I decided to buy it and give it to her. If a beautiful woman smiles, such a thing will not happen. If you are really angry, then give me a beating to vent your anger."
After saying that, Du Suxi closed her eyes and really looked like she was willing to be punished.
The corners of Du Qifeng's mouth twitched twice, but he could no longer speak.
Shen Mu sat aside and looked at Du Qifeng's deflated appearance. He felt like he was about to laugh out loud. His eyes fell on Du Suxi, who had a sad look on his face. She was even more grateful that she had not provoked him. Otherwise, if she had Treating yourself like this, I'm afraid I don't have the power to refute.
The atmosphere sank into an indescribable feeling of depression.
After a while, Du Qifeng restored his smile and looked at Du Suxi, his tone was so calm that no emotion could be heard.
"Young Master is quite courageous. It's a pity that my Du family is so small, with only four brothers and sisters."
The warning in the words was already obvious. You can't call me Du Xiaomei! It seemed that Du Suxi had already angered him.
"Really? Then as the eldest son of the family, why doesn't Mr. Du get married and have children as soon as possible to continue the bloodline of the Du family and shoulder the responsibility?"
Du Suxi smiled and retorted, facing the angry Du Qifeng, she was not panicked at all. In her previous life, she made a living by licking blood from the edge of a knife. If such a threat could scare her, she would have been scared to death long ago.
Although she was afraid of the Du family, it didn't mean that she was afraid of the Du family.
If the Du family wanted to embarrass her, she couldn't help it, and she would have to make the Du family pay a corresponding price.
Du Qifeng was silent for a long time, looking at Du Suxi with fear in his eyes. He spoke slowly.
"I asked someone to identify the clothes that Mr. Murong gave me. There were traces of tampering with them. My younger sister once said that only Mr. Murong had touched that piece of clothing..."
"..." Du Suxi gritted her teeth secretly, never expecting that the person in front of her was so attentive, but she also understood that she could never admit this situation!
"Young master Du, what are you kidding me about? How can I predict what kind of clothes Miss Du will wear? It's just for the beauty's smile. When Mr. Du says this, doesn't it mean that I'm framing Miss Du? There are actually a few days in between. During this time, if Miss Du has offended someone, or if there is any servant in the house who wants to harm Miss Du, I think it is not impossible. Mr. Du said that he is a subordinate, which really makes me feel chilled. "
After Du Suxi finished speaking, she held her forehead with her hands and did
He looked like he really couldn't accept such a blow.
"..." Shen Mu watched leisurely from the side and couldn't help but want to applaud Du Suxi's acting skills. How could this person be so shameless
Du Qifeng stared at Du Suxi, seeing this thin and frail-looking little baby in his eyes for the first time. exclaimed.
"Young Master is really eloquent. If it really has nothing to do with Young Master, then I can rest assured."
"Young Master has unparalleled magnanimity, and I admire him very much."
Du Suxi raised her eyes, met Du Qifeng's sharp eyes without hesitation, and smiled even more magnificently.
Although this man is a bit scheming, he can still be regarded as a true gentleman. Knowing that he did it, but still maintaining this magnanimity, looking at the world, it is something that very few people can do, at least. Du Suxi thought she couldn't do it at all.
Du Suxi praised secretly in her heart. Unexpectedly, Du Qifeng suddenly spoke.
"If Mr. Murong doesn't mind it, my father will celebrate his 50th birthday on the fifteenth day of next month. I would like to ask Mr. Murong to come over and talk about it."
After Du Qifeng said this, he took out a big red invitation card from his sleeve and placed it squarely in front of Du Suxi. Before Du Suxi could refute, he said with a smile.
"I will definitely wait for the young master to arrive. I also ask the young master to show your respect."
Du Suxi was forcefully forced to swallow the rejection in her throat. Isn't it Du Qifeng who sent him an invitation and dug a trap for himself? If he went there, it would be the territory of the Du family. If that crazy girl Du Yunxi went crazy, she would be beaten to death!
Just now, I thought that this man was an out-and-out gentleman, but he played such a trick on me again. It was really hateful!
Du Suxi secretly gritted her teeth, itching with hatred.
Du Qifeng looked at Du Suxi's appearance and smiled slightly.
"I'll take my leave."
Farewell, bid farewell to your sister! Du Suxi couldn't help but cursed in her heart, and forced a smile out of the corner of her mouth. It was really uglier than crying.
"Since Mr. Du is leaving, I won't send him away. But Mr. Du must be careful. Recently I heard that there are a few mad dogs in the capital. Mr. Du must not be bitten."
Du Qifeng was startled. Looking at Du Suxi's weird look, he didn't care and responded casually.
"Thank you Mr. Murong for the reminder."
After saying that, he turned around and left calmly.
Looking at Du Qifeng's leaving figure. Du Suxi finally stood up, stared at Shen Mu, who had been watching the show, and said.
"Why are you still standing there! Close the door! Let Xiao Hei go!"
Xiao Hei is a Tibetan Mastiff brought by Shen Mu. It is extremely large and ferocious. It only listens to Shen Mu's words. Shen Mu originally named it Black Marshal. Unexpectedly, Du Suxi frowned when she saw it. A very precious dog breed in the eyes of others, but in Du Suxi's eyes, it was like a plague.
"Where did you kidnap this black thing from?"
"It took me a month to capture the Far North!" Shen Mu gritted his teeth and emphasized deliberately. Looking at Du Suxi's disgusted expression, he felt as if he had been hit.
Du Suxi raised her eyebrows, seemed to be interested, and curled her lips.
"What's it called?"
"Marshal Black!" Shen Mu replied very proudly. This Tibetan Mastiff is very brave and once killed a tiger alone. For this reason, he was very proud and gave it such a popular name.
I originally thought that Du Suxi would be intimidated by the aura of this loud name, but unexpectedly, Du Suxi frowned and said.
"What a stupid name? Xiaohei, come here!"
“…”
What surprised Shen Mu was that after hearing the name Xiao Hei, his black marshal, who was extremely brave and could fight with tigers, walked up to Du Suxi obediently, with eyes as big as a baby's fists. Looking at Du Suxi, she seemed to be very docile. There was no resistance at all.
Shen Mu almost killed Xiao Hei in anger! This beast! I'm not even sorry for the name Black Marshal! Since then, the name Xiaohei has been finalized.
Du Suxi, however, disliked Xiao Hei very much. When he saw Xiao Hei, he asked Shen Mu to take him away in disgust. And that beast didn't know what was wrong. When he saw Du Suxi, he would move forward and make do with it, without any hesitation. No pride in being a Tibetan Mastiff. This time made Shen Mu feel very sad.
"Are you being too cruel?"
Shen Mu looked at Du Suxi, a little worried for Du Qifeng.
"What are you afraid of! It's not me who bit him anyway! Is he still trying to quarrel with an animal?"
Du Suxi rolled her eyes, said a word, and walked away.
Shen Mu looked at Du Suxi's retreating back. He gritted his teeth.
This man is really vicious. It’s better not to offend her in the future!
Although Jingwei entered the palace, the business of Moshang Xiangfang did not cool down because of this. But the business flow is not as good as before.
Du Suxi looked at the accounts and couldn't help but shake her head sadly. It seems that this Moshang Xiangfang is really not good without a pillar.
Sighing, Du Suxi felt that it was time for her to have a good talk with Zhong Lingxi. She could see that the seedling Zhong Lingxi had her potential. If she could be cultivated well, she could surpass Jingwei. Its glory is also unknown.
