Chapter 140
That night, Sheng Yuqing hung the bell on the bedside, and reflected on himself for half the night facing the tiny silver light. It was the bell given to him by Zhou Xiaodu, falling between the soft curtains, like the night mist.
of a dewdrop.
Maybe Jiang Sibai is right, he was a little too rude to Zhou Xiaodu. The more familiar he is with Zhou Xiaodu, the less hesitant he will be when talking.
But he is a heartless person, but Zhou Xiaodu is not. She has always been quite sensitive, but he sometimes forgets.
This is not good at all.
It was like tonight, he could not make Zhou Xiaodu angry, but he just made him angry. He felt that Jiang Sibai's words were unpleasant, as if he was blaming himself, so Zhou Xiaodu felt the same way.
Moreover, Zhou Xiaodu is a girl. As a member of the opposite sex, he really can’t be indifferent...
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a strange feeling of discomfort.
Zhou Xiaodu is a girl...
He thought he could adapt to the other person's gender change, but in fact, after two days, he still felt weird in his heart, something he couldn't describe in words.
Why...
The cicada kept shouting all night long, making him upset and angry.
…
Early the next morning, Sheng Fengxiu knocked on Mrs. Du's door and said "come in". Then she pushed the door open and saw the young woman leaning on the soft couch.
Sheng Fengxiu quietly looked at her appearance, and saw that she had changed into a pale yellow gown today, her hair was simply combed into a bun, her face looked unpainted, and she looked pale and sick, and her eyebrows were also gloomy.
, seems to be in poor spirits.
"Master, are you feeling better today?" she asked guiltily.
Zhou Xiaodu smiled slightly and nodded, "It's much better, you don't have to worry."
Sheng Fengxiu pursed her lips: But you really don’t look good.
"Master, it's my fault for causing you to fall. I got up early to stew a bowl of red date and white fungus soup. I stewed it myself. I'm going to apologize to you." Her face was blushing and her eyes were evasive.
Zhou Xiaodu glanced at the stew pot on the hand of the maid behind her, his smile did not fade, and his tone was gentle, "You are interested, let's leave it for now. I just had breakfast, I will eat it later, let's go to class first."
"Oh..." Sheng Fengxiu ordered, "Put that magpie on the table."
"Yes, miss."
Zhou Xiaodu picked up the prepared book "How to Be a Wife" and said, "Today I will tell you how a woman should run a family. Please turn to the chapter 'Managing a Family'..."
If Sheng Fengxiu dares to go to the back of the book and read, he will find that, unlike her ordinary "How to Be a Wife", the one in Du Fuzi's hand has many detailed explanations attached to every other paragraph of the original text.
Explanation and examples. Master Du, who talked eloquently, was just reading from the book.
Sheng Fengxiu was absent-minded but still listened to the lesson honestly. He remembered the red date and white fungus soup that he had painstakingly stewed, and ordered the magpie to bring it over, "Master, this soup will get cold if you don't drink it. Drink it quickly."
After I finish drinking, I asked the magpie to take away the stew pot."
Zhou Xiaodu apologized and said, "I'm really sorry. I have food in my stomach and I really can't drink it. The doctor also told me not to be gluttonous during this period, otherwise it will be detrimental to my condition. You can drink it yourself, Xiu Xiu."
Sheng Fengxiu's expression changed, "Are you afraid that I'll put something in the soup?"
Isn't that right? Zhou Xiaodu frowned weakly, "You have misunderstood Xiuxiu. Master, I really can't drink it. You gave me soup and it was too late for me to be happy. How could you think so wildly? Xiuxiu, you
Such a well-behaved child, I believe you will not make fun of the teacher."
"Then if you believe me, just drink the soup." Sheng Fengxiu said forcefully, "It's all water, how can it not be digested?"
Zhou Xiaodu just stared at her, as silent as a picture of a beautiful woman, with no intention of picking her up.
"Huh! I know that even if you say nice things, you are still worried about me harming you!" Sheng Fengxiu stood up angrily, snatched the stew pot from Magpie's hand, and put it into the pot.
The soup poured into his mouth, "Did you see that?! I didn't poison you! You shameless stingy guy, don't even think about drinking the soup stewed by this girl in the future!"
She didn't even bother to wipe her mouth, turned around and walked away angrily, and the magpie followed with a stew pot.
Zhou Xiaodu looked at the backs of the two of them, threw away the book in his hand, and muttered: "But I didn't want to drink the soup you stewed..."
"Knock knock!"
There was another familiar knock on the window.
Zhou Xiaodu frowned, "If you don't study hard in broad daylight, why did you come to me again?"
She stood up with a straight face and went to open the window.
The scorching sunshine of midsummer hit her face, and she was about to launch an attack to accuse her, but in the blink of an eye she saw something being struck towards her. She subconsciously thought it was a hidden weapon and frowned as she stepped back.
"Huh? Don't you like it?" The young man took back the bunch of half-opened lotus flowers in his hand and laughed twice.
Zhou Xiaodu Yangzuo took two steps forward naturally, "What are you doing? Going to pick up the lotus flowers in the lake? Madam Tu should be angry."
"No, I just went out to buy this." Sheng Yuqing's eyes were bright and he was very interested, "You can put it in a bottle, pour water in it, and it can be kept open for several days."
Zhou Xiaodu knocked on the window frame with his knuckles, looked at the beads of sweat hanging on his temples, and said dissatisfied: "Are you very free? Have you practiced your sword? Have you practiced your sword? Have you memorized the book? Just go shopping and buy things.
...Did that little idiot lead you away from your true duties?"
"Hey, didn't I make you angry yesterday? I want to apologize to you. These flowers are very fresh. The flower seller said they were just picked not long ago..." His cheeks were flushed red by the sun.
"It is said that 'lotus' is the most precious thing. This has a very good meaning. Just calm down and forgive me! The lotus seeds inside can also be peeled out and eaten, which can clear away heat and reduce inflammation."
If he hadn't mentioned this, Zhou Xiaodu would have really forgotten about it.
She raised her sleeves and took the bouquet of lotus flowers with a confident attitude, "What a joke, I am such a big person, would I care about a child like you?"
She turned her eyes slightly and focused, "What are you wearing today?"
"Xia?" Sheng Yuqing lowered his head and looked at his clothes. Because he was in mourning, he was wearing plain clothes and linen belts these days, but Sheng Fengren was a junior after all, and the period of mourning would not last long, so these two
Tian Zhao sent someone to bring him new clothes and asked him to put them on, "These are new clothes they gave me. Is there anything wrong with them?" He saw that the materials were all good and there was nothing wrong with the style.
It was a dark green summer shirt with a dark plaid pattern and a black leather belt.
"Apart from being ugly, there is no problem." Zhou Xiaodu said bluntly.
"Is it ugly?" Sheng Yuqing was stunned for a moment, "It's okay..."
"It's not ugly, it's very ugly. Not only ugly, but also very vulgar and old-fashioned. Even an old man in his seventies or eighties wouldn't wear something like this." She hugged the lotus and commented sharply, "That woman named Zhao
It’s on purpose!”
"The maid who brought me the clothes said that since I have just come out of mourning period, it is not appropriate to show off, so I was asked to dress more seriously..." He was a little embarrassed. After all, his only advantage in front of Zhou Xiaodu seemed to be his appearance, but
Now, Zhou Xiaodu directly used the word "extremely ugly" to describe him. Although he was only describing his clothes, he still felt depressed and ashamed.
After all, he is a teenager and his face is relatively thin.
Zhou Xiaodu said: "Serious? She's obviously ugly and very funny! If you listen to that old witch named Zhao talking nonsense, she has no good intentions."
"Haha..." Sheng Yuqing laughed twice.
"Tsk, don't do anything else today. I have to take you to buy some clothes. I hope this guy named Zhao will dress you up." Zhou Xiaodu turned around and put the lotus flowers in the bottle and took it from the closet.
A curtain hat was turned out.
Sheng Yuqing was lying on her window, looking at her movements, and said in surprise: "You want to take me out to buy clothes?" Zhou Xiaodu had never been so concerned about what clothes he wore before.
"What else? You expect that guy surnamed Zhao to give you a bunch of ugly clothes? Dark green, plaid, cross-collar dark clothes, and black belts, they can think of it! It would be so embarrassing for you to stand in the team of young men like this.
, how embarrassing... I will be embarrassed with you." Zhou Xiaodu muttered through gritted teeth, and put the curtain hat on her head. The hanging white gauze covered her face, but she could feel her expression just by listening to her voice.
indignation.
Sheng Yuqing was dragged to the courtyard wall by her, and was thrown outside the wall, almost losing his temper.
Tsk, Zhou Xiaodu’s desire to win has risen again, hasn’t he...
