Although Hua Tang took good care of him, Wen Liunian was a scholar after all, he had no martial arts background and was somewhat frightened, so he spent most of the time lying on the bed, reading a book in a daze, and secretly thinking about business, it was rare for him to be at ease.
While Lu Chase was taking a nap, the red-armored wolf slipped out of the room, swayed its tentacles and crawled all the way to Zhao Wu's small courtyard, squatting on the threshold and carefully looking inside.
"Why are you here?" Huatang caught a glimpse of a smear of red the size of a copper coin, so she stretched out her hand with a smile, "You came to find the Gu King?"
The red-armored wolf quickly crawled up to her palm and rubbed its tentacles friendly.
Huatang took out the small porcelain cup, and released the green-headed Gu King.
Fat Qingtou lay lazily on his stomach, not wanting to move.
The red-armored wolf swished up to it, rubbing its tentacles cheekily—because it was born too powerful, so as long as there was a red-armored wolf, the rest of the Gu insects would avoid it, only the Gu king was not afraid of it, Chasing Shadow The green-headed Gu King who came out of the palace was even less afraid, so he didn't bother to care that it was trying to wrap its tentacles, and still lay down and dozed off.
"Why are you staring at the bugs again?" Zhao Wu was helpless after entering the room, "I told you to take a good nap." These days, I have been studying those corpses in the office room, and I have to take care of government affairs and detoxify adults. Not much rest.
"Next time I go back to Yunnan, help me catch a red-armored wolf." Huatang fiddled with the two bugs with a small stick, "I usually play with Gu King, one red and one green are also pretty."
"Okay." Zhao Wu nodded and agreed, "But this is a matter for the future, now go and have a good rest."
"I'm going to sleep, you take the Gu King to catch some bugs and come back." Huatang said.
Zhao Wu frowned, "Are you eating again? I just ate a lot the day before yesterday."
"Give it to the red-armored wolf." Hua Tang said, "It can't attract worms by itself, and Mr. Zhao probably hasn't bothered to catch them recently. If he keeps eating beef and pork, the color of his carapace will darken, and the toxicity on his body will also weaken."
Zhao Wu nodded, picked up the green-headed Gu king and the red-armored wolf and went out.
In the small courtyard on the other side, Wen Liunian was basking in the sun, with a plate of snacks, a pot of tea, and a handsome and charming man beside him.
"Don't eat any more." Zhao Yue pressed his hand.
Wen Liunian emphasized, "This is Lord Shang's dessert."
Zhao Yue: ...
So you can always eat? !
Wen Liunian said again, "It's stuffed with sesame seeds."
"You can't eat any fillings." Zhao Yue took the plate away, "I have to eat later."
Wen Liunian hiccupped, but didn't want to. He closed his eyes and planned to continue basking in the sun.
Zhao Yue frowned and sat beside him, "Get up and walk."
"Don't go." Wen Liunian didn't want to move.
Zhao Yue frightened him, "Sleeping after eating will make you fat."
"So what?" Wen Liunian yawned, "The more fat you are, the more official you will be."
Zhao Yue was choked back again - when will this nerd stop talking nonsense
Wen Liunian rubbed his stomach comfortably.
If you can't say it again, you have to suppress it by force. Zhao Yue forcibly picked him up and ordered, "Stand!"
Wen Liunian reminded weakly, "I am a patient."
"Don't use the same reason every time!" Zhao Yue knocked him on the head.
…
Wen Liunian had no choice but to walk slowly around the yard twice, digesting it symbolically, and asked, "When can I go back to live?" Although Lord Shangbao's house is very luxurious and more comfortable than the mansion, but it's always a day and night. There's nothing to do here, and it's really boring.
Zhao Yue said, "After you recover from your injury."
Wen Liunian said, "My injury is slow to heal."
Zhao Yue was unmoved, "Then go back to the government office slowly."
Wen Liunian said, "But in the mountains..."
Zhao Yue interrupted him, "It doesn't matter whether there is gold or ghosts in the mountain, you have to wait until you recover from your injury before going to see it, there is no room for negotiation."
Wen Liunian sat listlessly on the chair, "Oh."
Zhao Yue: ...
This look of being bullied.
Wen Liunian said, "But there is nothing to do."
"What else should I do while recuperating?" Zhao Yue asked patiently.
Wen Liunian said, "I wasted my time, anxious and worried, unable to eat."
Zhao Yue said, "It's useless to say another basket of idioms." Besides, there is no one who can't eat. He just ate a large plate of pastries filled with sesame seeds and drank two pots of tea.
Wen Liunian said, "Then tell me the story."
Zhao Yue's eyes widened, "What story are you talking about?"
"Any story is good." Wen Liunian said, "To pass the time."
Zhao Yue said, "I'll go find Lu Zhui." He has always been good at speaking.
"Okay." Wen Liunian sat on the chair, his face was a little red from the sun, his hair was thin and soft, his clothes were wrinkled, and he was lazy, as if he would yawn and fall asleep if he scratched it.
So Zhao Yue stopped again - this disheveled appearance seemed to be inconvenient for others to see, after all, the magistrate is usually very dignified.
Wen Liunian asked, "Is the head of the family not going again?"
Zhao Yue said, "I thought about it, Lu Zhui is probably taking a nap."
Wen Liunian asked again, "Second Master Lu is good at telling stories?"
Zhao Yue said, "Actually, it's not very good."
Wen Liunian: ...
Zhao Yue said, "Once upon a time, there was a big mountain."
Wen Liunian was surprised, "Is this the beginning?" It was so sudden.
Zhao Yue was a little fierce, "What else? Do you want to sing a verse first?" There are so many things for a nerd.
Wen Liunian smiled, "That's fine."
Zhao Yue tugged at his hair and continued, "The mountain is very tall and big, and there is a little red fox inside."
Wen Liunian was puzzled, "A fox?"
Zhao Yue said, "There is also a wild wolf."
Wen Liunian: ...
Zhao Yue continued to tell the story with a blank face. In the end, the little fox and the wild wolf practiced together to become immortals, and both of them ascended to heaven with a happy ending.
Wen Liunian scratched his face.
Zhao Yue said, "It's over."
Wen Liunian struggled and said, "Actually, the story I'm telling... refers to things in the rivers and lakes." I didn't expect to hear a bunch of rabbits and foxes, and they were still walking happily in the deep mountains with their front paws raised.
Zhao Yue's expression froze, froze again, froze again
Why don't you make it clear earlier! No matter what the story is.
Wen Liunian quickly praised, "The story of the master is also very good."
Zhao Yue stared at him.
Wen Liunian looked innocent.
Zhao Yue said, "Do you really want to laugh?"
Wen Liunian shook his head vigorously.
"Pretend!" Zhao Yue pinched his face severely.
Wen Liunian smiled, and leaned towards him to please him, "Thank you."
The distance between the two was too close, and Zhao Yue felt a little uncomfortable, "Thank you for what I did."
"Thank you for taking care of me." Wen Liunian was serious.
Zhao Yue said, "It was originally my responsibility."
Wen Liunian said "Yes", and then lazily closed his eyes, intending to sleep for a while.
Zhao Yue carried him to the reclining chair, and covered him with a thin blanket, which had a faint fragrance, which smelled like a bookworm.
Wen Liunian fell asleep quickly, breathing very long.
Zhao Yue looked at him unscrupulously, his eyes moved from his eyebrows to his nose, and finally stopped at his lips.
It looks very soft... Zhao Yue stretched out his hand and pressed it.
is very soft.
So I pressed it again.
Wen Liunian's eyelashes fluttered in his dream, probably because he dreamed that someone was feeding him, so he opened his mouth and swallowed it.
The soft tip of his tongue lightly swept over his fingertips, Zhao Yue's hair stood on end, and he quickly retracted his hand.
Wen Liunian was a little dissatisfied, frowned and muttered a few words, because he hadn't tasted it yet.
Lu Zhui happened to come in from the small courtyard, and asked in confusion, "Why is the head of the family so red?"
Zhao Yue said, "No."
Lu Zhui twitched the corners of his mouth and didn't look in the mirror before speaking. This isn't red, so what is red
Zhao Yue turned around and entered the bedroom, staggering a bit when he crossed the threshold.
Lu Zhui: ...
Although I don't know what the two of them were doing before, but one thing is certain.
That is, it seems that I really shouldn't appear.
Zhao Yue broke a teacup in the house.
Lu Zhui hurriedly said, "I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now!"
Zhao Yue: ...
Lu Erdao disappeared almost instantly.
Zhao Yue was circling around the house fidgeting.
I've probably been... really bewitched recently.
"Second leader." As soon as Lu Zhui returned to his residence, Zhao Wu came in with the red armored wolf, "I sent it back."
"Thank you." Lu Zhui said.
Zhao Wu was puzzled, "What happened?" Why did he look flustered.
Lu Zhui considered his words for a while, and then said, "I wanted to visit Lord Wen just now, but it seems that I went at a very bad time."
Zhao Wudao, "Is Master Zhao also here?"
Lu Zhui nodded.
Zhao Wudao, "That's no wonder."
Lu Zhui: ...
Zhao Wudao, "It's safer to wait until dinner time next time." You won't see anything you shouldn't.
Lu Zhui nodded, "That's true."
Zhao Wudao, "Although my lord says he is a clean and honest official, his family is a rich and powerful family in the south of the Yangtze River, so there should be many rules.
Lu Zhui said, "I will discuss with the head of the family." The dowry should not be careless.
Zhao Wudao, "If you need help from the Shadow Chasing Palace, it's okay to talk about it."
Lu Zhui patted him on the shoulder, "Then thank you Brother Zhao first."
There are many rules in a large family in the south of the Yangtze River, and it will not be very smooth when they want to propose a marriage. The shy daughter-in-law who has always wanted suddenly becomes a mighty and strong man overnight.
Thinking that the matter of proposing marriage would inevitably fall on him again, Lu Erdao felt that his life was very gloomy.
Will it be kicked out...
