Chapter 281 Close your eyes and open your mouth
Mo Cao rolled over his mouth and swallowed, and said "Yeah" in a dull voice. Then he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, took off his shoes, and just lay down on the edge of the bed.
Close your eyes.
The door was closed, blocking out the sound of wind.
It was so quiet in the night that I could hear my own heartbeat beating louder than the previous one, as well as the faint sound of sobbing in my ears.
Ai Cao turned around and looked over at a loss. There was a person's distance between him and Liu Wanting.
The faint moonlight fell along the window lattice, and Ai Cao saw Liu Wanting secretly wiping her eyes, "Why...are you crying?"
Liu Wanting's eyelashes fluttered slightly and she turned her head, "I have been wandering for three years, and it is only now that I have the sense of security of my family."
Looking into each other's eyes, Ai Cao felt sour in her heart, "Why didn't you stay in Nanhai City in the first place?"
Liu Wanting pinched the quilt and said, "Although the Lord of Zhao'an County cleared my father's name back then, in the hearts of the people, my father and the master were just the same thing. They were mediocre officials who bullied the people. There was no room for me there, so I had to take me with me."
My parents’ memorial tablets have returned to my hometown.”
With a choked voice, Ai Cao stretched out her hand awkwardly and wiped away the tears that fell from the corners of her eyes, "I will be there in the future."
Liu Wanting took Ai Cao's hand and held it in her palm. Ai Cao's heartbeat seemed to have dropped a beat, and she suddenly stuttered again, "Um, I, I brought something here."
Wormwood withdrew her hand and stood up again.
Liu Wanting sat up and saw him lighting candles and tinkering on the ground for a long time. Then he came over with an armful of things and piled them on the bed.
"This is the rouge and jewelry I saw on the street. I wonder if you like it?"
There are many jewelry, including gold, silver, inlaid with pearls, jade of various colors, and even several boxes of rouge.
Liu Wanting burst into tears instantly, "Are these all for me?"
"Yeah." Mugwort saw it and bought it. Unknowingly, he bought so much.
This time, he brought them all with him.
Ai Cao stuffed another stack of silver notes and the broken silver in her purse into Liu Wanting's hands, "There aren't many silver notes, so take it first."
Liu Wanting held a heavy amount of money in her hands, "You gave it to me, what did you spend on it?"
"I live and eat in the palace, and it costs very little." Ai Cao took two more pieces of silver from Liu Wanting's hand, "When I go out to do errands, these are enough."
"I live here, I don't have anything to spend money on." Liu Wanting took the purse in Ai Cao's hand and put a handful of broken silver back, "I will keep the banknotes for you. You often go out to do errands, so keep more money.
Come close."
Liu Wanting stuffed the purse back into Ai Cao's hand.
Ai Cao hesitated and put away the purse again, "There has been a lot of chaos in the capital recently, so you can stay here first.
When you are more settled in the future, if you want to live in the capital, you can buy a house. The money is not very much, but it should be enough to buy a small house. When the time comes, you don't have to work too hard to hire two servants.
.”
"Well, you are my husband-in-law. Wherever you are from now on, I will be with you." Liu Wanting wrapped the jewelry in a handkerchief and put it next to her pillow.
Taking Ai Cao's hand, she knew that Ai Cao was shy, so she took the initiative and said, "It's very late, please stop lying on the ground."
Wormwood went to bed again, and Liu Wanting put down the gray bed curtain, blocking even the clear moonlight.
In a small space, an atmosphere of ambiguity and tension slowly spread between the two of them.
Liu Wanting kissed Ai Cao's thin and cool lips.
Ai Cao raised his hand nervously, put it gently on her back, responded awkwardly to her kiss, and slowly pressed her under him.
…
The rooster crows, and the sky lights up white.
Ruan Ningxiang, who had to sleep on her stomach all night because of an injury to her back shoulder, let out a sigh of pain as soon as someone turned over.
The movement woke up the person lying next to her. Chu Yu opened her collar and took a look, "How many things did this guy do?"
Even after the medicine was applied, the area was still bruised and the shoulder was swollen.
Chu Yu took the medicine bottle next to the bed and helped apply the medicine again.
Ruan Ningxiang looked at his injuries. They were burned red by the water, but they had receded. It was just the wounds the size of copper coins caused by the sparks that seemed to have not healed at all.
"Do you want to apply the medicine again?" Ruan Ningxiang asked.
"Madam, help me." Chu Yu, who had just woken up in the morning, did not feel tired at all, but was very energetic.
"It's not like you can't reach it, just do it yourself."
Ruan Ningxiang didn't want to be fooled by him, so she yawned, passed him, and got to the ground.
Chu Yu threw the bottle back to the pillow again, "Get up so early."
Ruan Ningxiang is sleepy, but this place is so far away from the capital. Yesterday, the emperor said that he would invite her and the Crown Prince of Beidu to the palace to discuss cooperation.
Of course she had to get up early.
Ruan Ningxiang had another slap in the face, and just as she was about to take a sip of overnight tea to moisten her throat, Chu Yu took it and poked her forehead with his finger, "If you drink something cold early in the morning, you won't have to worry about a stomachache.
"
Ruan Ningxiang didn't think too much. Chu Yu brought hot water from the charcoal stove, poured a cup of it, and threw the ginseng slices and wolfberry that he had conjured up from somewhere into the tea cup.
Ruan Ningxiang held the tea cup and gently blew the hot air. On the other side of the hot air, Chu Yu was still busy getting hot water to wash her face.
Apparently he looked more considerate than Su He.
Ruan Ningxiang couldn't help but giggle, "Hey, I suddenly want to give you a medal for being a good husband."
Chu Yu brought a basin over and said, "The medals are so boring, let's get something real."
Ruan Ningxiang hooked her fingers, and Chu Yu put down the basin and looked over slyly.
Ruan Ningxiang said: "Close your eyes."
Chu Yu closed his eyes obediently.
"Open your mouth."
The corners of Chu Yu's mouth were slightly raised and opened.
A real little thing was thrown into his mouth. Chu Yu tasted it and found that it was a wolfberry.
It was still soaked in a teacup.
Chu Yu only guessed half of it right.
It was soaked in a teacup, but Ruan Ningxiang accidentally drank it into her mouth and threw it to him again.
Ruan Ningxiang, who had done bad things, immediately stayed away from him.
There's a bench across.
As if nothing happened, I lowered my head and washed my face, briefly washing it twice.
Chu Yu walked around the stool, wiped the water on her face with a handkerchief, and tucked her accidentally wet hair behind her ears, "The injury on your right shoulder is still quite serious. Take a rest recently and don't lift anything heavy."
thing."
Seeing the Haruyuki knife still lying on the table, Chu Yu emphasized again, "Don't take the knife for the next two days."
"Um."
Ruan Ningxiang responded, still carrying the knife, but she changed the direction to avoid the injury on her shoulder.
Seeing Chu Yu's eyes examining her, she explained: "I didn't take it, I was carrying it on my back."
Chu Yu sighed slightly and didn't say anything.
As soon as I went out, I saw Ai Cao who had set up the carriage and was waiting, and Liu Wanting who was helping to pack things.
"General Shen left last night." Ai Cao stepped forward, "He left when he was ugly."
