Chapter 75
Several times, I saw her deep and strange expression, but the next moment she would return to a soft, kind, and charming look, as if the expression just now was just my illusion.
Occasionally, I would accidentally catch her disappointed expression, or her fragile look with red and swollen eyes, ready to cry.
I don’t know if she has a quarrel with Nangong Yi, so sometimes when she happens to be bumped into by me, she will transfer her dissatisfaction with Nangong Yi to me.
I can only secretly blame myself for my bad luck. Who told me that I was too slow to move out of the way?
Mother-in-law Wen Geng’s birthday is coming up in two days. Nangong Yi has disappeared recently. Even the time to go back to the room to sleep is getting later and later. When I sit in the empty room, I will feel why the house is so big.
What? When I was lying on the soft bed, I felt that the bed was too big...
I thought of the idea of making a birthday cake for my gentle mother-in-law, so I followed the ingredients and steps in my memory and found flour, eggs, sugar... some necessary things, and prepared to show off my rare cooking skills in a century.

The result... is conceivable...
I struggled with flour in the kitchen for a long time, but I didn’t even mix the flour into dough. I just made myself a flour person.
Everyone who had been shut out by me stood up and waited with their necks stiffened, but they still didn't see me coming out, so Qingqing and Mu Lian were gloriously pushed into the battlefield (in order to avoid everyone leaking my proud work early).
When I go out, there is no sense of freshness, and I isolate everyone outside the door)
Three hours later, there were three more flour workers in the kitchen, white flour on the floor, yellow liquid and broken egg shells on the floor...
In the end, my dream cake came out unexpectedly and was stillborn in the bud...
Come to think of it, I really have accomplished nothing...
I went back to the dormitory feeling extremely depressed, not wanting to look at anyone's evasive pity look, not listening to anyone's perfunctory and stiff comfort. The maid in the dormitory was shocked when she saw that I was covered in white and misty appearance, and quickly prepared something for me.
hot water bath
I sat in the spacious wooden barrel behind the screen, enjoying the rose spa, but I couldn't feel happy. Whenever I think about the kitchen that was just ransacked, I feel overflowing with guilt and loss...
I was a little tired after washing, and the water was a little cold. I thought about it, but when I grabbed my hair, I found that it was still white and sticky. I just heard footsteps coming in from outside the door, so I wanted to ask the maid to give me more.
Some hot water...
"Who, oh, Xiaoshuang, give me some more hot water, the water is a bit cold..." I said to myself
"..." There was a pause outside the screen, and the person coming didn't answer me.
"Xiaoshuang, Xiaoshuang..." I shouted loudly, feeling a little anxious. Could it be that it wasn't Xiaoshuang?
I was washing my hair faster and faster, just wanting to finish it quickly, regardless of whether the water was cold or hot. In a hurry, I heard footsteps inside the house that seemed to be walking out.
Just as I was about to stand up to dry off and put on clothes, someone behind me poured a ladle of hot water. I was a little surprised. "Xiao Shuang, there's no need to fall down. I've already washed... Ah - Nangong Yi, you pervert, get out quickly."
..." Turning around, he found that it was Nangong Yi, still holding the water ladle in his hand.
Obviously, my high decibel level frightened Nangong Yi. He just took the water ladle and tried to block my mouth regardless of anything.
But I was even more panicked when I saw him rushing towards me. I pulled my robe to try to wrap myself up, but I was so nervous that I slipped and fell, splashing high and making the floor wet.
When Nangong Yi saw that I was about to fall, he didn't stop my mouth with the water ladle. Instead, he threw it away and flew to pick me up. However, his speed couldn't keep up with the speed of my fall, so he got wise and put his arms around me, and we talked.
