Seeing her disappointed look, Li Yan sighed, "Grandma, it's not that this slave is too talkative. Based on what Miss Biao has done before, it's good that Fourth Master doesn't hate her. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to care about her anymore."
Shichun Equinox fell silent. She didn't know this in her heart, but she still had a lucky mentality, thinking that they should still be happy.
Li Yan looked at her with a somewhat complicated look. She was more worried about Chu Run's excessive concern for Shi Chunfen, but seeing that Shi Chunfen didn't notice it at all, it was hard for her to remind her, lest everything was fine.
, when she said this, she became troubled.
I felt sad for a while at the Spring Equinox, then lay down again, and then slept until dawn.
Perhaps she didn't even know it, but Yu Atu had become a burden to her long ago. Now that this burden was gone, her body accepted it more easily than her mind.
After resting for a night at the inn, the next morning, Shi Chunquin went to Chu Run to ask how their discussion with Ren Shu went yesterday. Although the crisis had been lifted, the burden on them was obviously much heavier.
What started as a tea house and now has to find a way to resettle so many refugees, they really can't be careless at all.
Chu Run had gotten up early and was waiting for her in the hotel lobby. Seeing her refreshed look, his eyes unconsciously curved and he said happily: "The lobby sister-in-law looks pretty good today."
"Really?" Shi Chunfen subconsciously touched her face. She had been in Shuzhou for such a long time, and she had a lot of pimples on her face because of the spicy food. In addition, she had little rest during this period.
Sometimes she couldn't help but dislike herself when looking in the mirror.
"Yes." Chu Run said with a smile: "After the matter is resolved, I think your skin will slowly return to whiteness."
Shi Chunfen lowered his head and smiled, but couldn't hide his helplessness, "How can it be so easy?"
She walked to Chu Run and sat down, and couldn't help but ask: "Usagi left like this yesterday, but did he leave you a few words?"
Seeing that she only cared about this, the smile on Chu Run's face faded and he said calmly: "She should be angry with me, how could she leave a message for me?"
"That's true." Shi Chunfen slumped down, stared at his expression, and probed: "What about you? Will you write to her to coax her?"
Chu Run paused and looked at her meaningfully, "What do you want me to do to your cousin that my eldest cousin can't do?"
Mentioning this, Shi Chunfen's expression froze and his eyes became cold, "If you don't want to, forget it, why bother using your eldest cousin to push me? He is very busy in the capital, how can you compare?"
She was so anxious to defend Chu Ling that she didn't realize how harsh her tone was. Chu Run's face darkened and he stood up directly, "I'm sorry, I'm not idle with anything to do. There's a large teahouse and dock.
There are a lot of things waiting for me to do, so I won’t be bored here with the receptionist!"
Seeing his reaction, Shi Chunfen realized his rudeness and quickly said: "I'm sorry, Arun, I didn't mean that."
Chu Run paused in his steps and turned his head to look at her coldly, "I know that in the heart of the cousin-in-law, I can't compare to my eldest cousin, but comparing my feelings to my heart, if my eldest cousin marries your cousin, he may not be able to do better than me.
good."
After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back, leaving Chunfen sitting alone in a daze.
——
After a simple breakfast, Shi Chunfen asked Li Yan to accompany her to buy some gifts, and then she got on the carriage and went directly to the prefect's mansion. Chu Run just ran away without telling her how they discussed yesterday, she just
You can go to Ren Shu yourself and ask.
It was almost noon when they arrived at the prefect's mansion, and Ren Shu quickly sent someone to welcome them in.
"Oh, you are such a rare guest!" Ren Shu played with the folding fan in his hand and looked at them with a sneer on his face, "Yesterday, the eldest mistress told me not to go to the inn to harass you. Why did she come to the door today instead and bring it to you?"
Am I harassing?”
Seeing that he was as unpleasant as ever, Shi Chunfen's face darkened and he said displeasedly: "I just want to know how your discussion went yesterday. I am definitely not here to make jokes with you, Mr. Ren."
"Oh?" Ren Shu became even more amused, "Why didn't your good cousin tell you?"
He looked up and down at Shi Chunfen, and his eyes became weird, "Could it be that you guys had a falling out, so you came to me on purpose to piss him off?"
"You?!" Shi Chunfen blushed with anger, "I'm not as dirty as you think!"
Seeing that she refused to admit it, Ren Shu laughed loudly, stood up and walked to her, circling her a few times, "If it's not so dirty, then why doesn't he want to pay attention to you?"
Seeing that the topic was going further and further, Shi Chunfen turned around and left with Li Yan.
Ren Shu saw this and quickly stepped forward to stop him, "Hey, hey, hey, it's just a joke, do you want to be so serious?"
He faced Shi Chunfen's cold face and said helplessly: "Don't you want to know how our discussion went yesterday? Why don't you sit down and talk slowly?"
Seeing that he was finally serious, Shi Chunfen snorted coldly and followed him into the inner hall.
Shi Chunfen and Li Yan walked into the inner hall, only to find that wine and food had been prepared inside. Shi Chunfen became alert and asked displeasedly: "Aren't we talking about something? Why are we eating again?"
Ren Shu looked at her with amusement written on his face, "You came to see me at noon, and you didn't allow me to have lunch? If you want to eat, you can eat, and if you don't want to eat, you can leave. I have a lot of things to do every day, but there is no such thing as
I can talk to you about these things at another time."
Shi Chunfen was speechless, so he had to suppress the anger in his heart and sit down with him.
Different from the wine and food he carefully prepared yesterday, today's meals were obviously all spicy food and were obviously not prepared in advance. After seeing it clearly, his expression softened a lot.
"By the way." Ren Shu suddenly said, "You still have a wound on your tongue, so you can't eat spicy food. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some light dishes."
"No need." Shi Chunfen said coldly, "Just eat it yourself, I'll watch from the side."
Seeing her disapproving look, Ren Shu snorted coldly and said displeasedly: "Who do you think I am? I'm just eating a meal. How can I eat you?"
"Sir Ren!" Li Yan interrupted unbearably, "Please speak with some respect. Our grandma is a married woman and cannot tolerate such frivolous words!"
"Frivolous?" Ren Shu just thought it was funny, "Yes, yes, you rich people are used to following rules, and you really can't stand us who come from the world. No wonder we can't talk to each other."
Seeing that he was obviously angry, Shi Chunfen remained silent and compromised: "Master Ren misunderstood, I just don't want to cause trouble to you. Since Master Ren doesn't mind, I will be disrespectful."
