Zhu Ying, who was unhappy, finished her dinner. The reason was different from being hungry at noon, because she only took one bite and found the food with a country flavor quite delicious. Of course, Zhang Shou's excellent cooking skills must not be wasted!
When washing her face and feet before going to bed at night, Miss Zhu was embarrassed to ask Wu for help again. However, no matter how careful she was, the front of her clothes was still mostly wet. Fortunately, she had to change into clothes that night, so she could only change into a set of undershirt and panties that Wu had found temporarily and had never worn before. Although they were a lot shorter, she could only make do with it as a temporary measure and she didn't care about the rough material.
The next time she slept, she, who would always choose a bed when she went out, actually had a sweet dream!
In the dream, Zhang Shou was no longer distant towards her, but smiled gently and elegantly. In the end, she almost woke up with laughter!
When she opened her eyes again, she even heard her own laughter. When she finally woke up, she coughed and habitually called Zhan Jin, but found that there was no response. She opened her eyes and looked around blankly. It took her a long time to realize that she was not at home, and Wu, who had been sleeping outside, was gone.
Zhu Ying sat up hurriedly and saw a clothes rack next to the bed with a set of men's clothes on it. Her eyes lit up and she quickly got out of bed, put on her shoes and went over to try them on.
After all, Zhang Shou's outfit was simple. She had just put it on and was looking at the young man in the bronze mirror who looked simple yet elegant. Then she heard Wu knocking on the door. It turned out that someone outside heard the noise and came to bring her hot water and breakfast.
After washing up with the help of Wu, Zhu Ying took a look at the simple but clean porridge and two small and exquisite white steamed buns. She saw that it was bright outside and asked without bothering to eat, "Aunt Wu, what time is it?"
"It's almost nine o'clock." Seeing the rich young lady gasp, Wu smiled and said, "This is the countryside, not the Duke of Zhao's mansion. It's okay to get up a little later. Ah Shou even told you to get up early before going out, saying that you should sleep a little longer."
Zhu Ying didn't pay attention to anything else and only heard two words: get out!
Thinking about how Zhang Shou had "disdained" her in the kitchen and at dinner yesterday, and now he had left her alone, she couldn't help but feel even more aggrieved. She, Miss Zhu, had just made a move, and countless noble sons in the capital were flocking to her, but he actually ran away! She hadn't done anything to him yet!
She snorted in anger, and then she forced a smile: "I shouldn't have gotten up so late... By the way, where is Shou?"
After so many years, Wu no longer had much hope for this marriage, especially after being humiliated by Zhu Gongquan yesterday. But after Zhu Ying came back after taking Zhang Shou away for so long, her personality suddenly changed, and she decided to stay, and she was clearly curious about Zhang Shou. She felt happy, but also had an indescribable pride.
So what if he grew up in the countryside? That can't cover up the brilliance of my Ah Shou!
She immediately said with a smile: "A Shou can't stay idle at home. He is probably giving lessons to the young men in the village right now."
Zhu Ying could not help but be secretly surprised. She suppressed the urge to ask questions, nodded, and quickly finished her late breakfast. Then she asked Wu where Zhang Shou was giving a lecture. In the end, she didn't know the way, so she took Zhang's servant Ah Liu with her.
