Chu Qing was extremely speechless: "Miss Bihua, you will show up again later... No, you will show off later. Call your eldest lady first, I have something to do."
"Oh, okay." Bihua turned her head and shouted towards the back bedroom: "Miss, get up quickly, Mr. Chu is here."
Chu Qing was stunned: "It's almost noon, Tao Ruolin hasn't gotten up yet?"
Bihua put down the stone lock and replied: "Oh, my lady always sleeps for six or seven hours when she has nothing to do."
Chu Qing almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Sleeping nearly fourteen hours a day, raccoon?
The bedroom door was pushed open, and Tao Ruolin walked out, rubbing her eyes. She had only one shoe on her foot. When she crossed the threshold, she almost fell. Then she realized that she was missing one shoe, so she went back to the house to look for shoes.
She finally came out wearing her shoes, hugged her arms and shivered for a while, then she went back to the house, and after a while she walked out sleepily wearing a waistcoat.
Rubbing her eyes and seeing it was Chu Qing, Tao Ruolin's pupils were dilated and she muttered: "I would have been better off with you if I had known. It's true that I came here early in the morning to annoy others."
Chu Qing: "..."
"Cold." Tao Ruolin trembled and waved to Chu Qing, as if calling her own golden retriever: "Come."
Chu Qing's eyes lit up and he quickly walked over and was taken to the boudoir by Tao Ruolin.
Tao Ruolin hunched her neck and sat cross-legged on the bed, wrapping herself tightly in the quilt, covering her face, leaving her two big eyes exposed, which made her feel evil.
"Is it so cold?" Chu Qing crossed the threshold and was stunned for a moment: "Let me go, you are too sloppy."
Tao Ruolin's boudoir was not big, but it was messy. It was quite messy. Several boxes were open, all kinds of clothes were thrown all over the floor, and the bronze mirrors were overturned. It could be said that there was almost no place to set foot after entering the house.
Tao Ruolin still looked as if she had not recovered her senses, her eyes were fixed, and she probably didn't even hear what Chu Qing said.
Bihua, who happened to be carrying tea, walked in, holding back a smile and said: "My lady is not like this on weekdays. After she came back yesterday, she was so happy. When she entered the house, she shouted that she could finally get married. She rummaged through the boxes and packed the clothes.
He threw them all out, running around the room and jumping around, overjoyed, and finally got into the quilt and giggled. Mr. Chu, please don't get me wrong, the young lady is usually very tidy."
Chu Qing had a dull look on his face and began to imagine the scene Bihua said.
Tao Ruolin was still huddled in the quilt, as if her soul had been taken away, like a retarded person.
Putting down the tea cup, Bihua went out to hook up with Fu San, while Chu Qing couldn't laugh or cry. Looking at the slightly dull eyes in the quilt, he felt that he was really lucky to have found such an interesting soul.
Picking up the clothes on the ground and throwing them into the wooden box, Chu Qing sat on the stool and waited patiently for Tao Ruolin to "return to her soul".
After long enough to finish drinking a cup of hot tea, Tao Ruolin's brain finally turned on and her pupils began to focus: "I haven't slept enough yet."
"I've been sitting here for half the time, and you're too arrogant."
Tao Ruolin stretched her neck and saw Fu San outside the house competing with Bi Hua to lift a stone lock. At the same time, she also saw Nangong Ping and Lu Zhu.
She had met Nangong Ping before and was very familiar with him. This was the first time for Lu Zhu to meet him.
"Who is that?" Tao Ruolin pointed to Lv Zhu who was watching the excitement in the yard.
"Miss Luzhu, the person who helped me bring down Zhang Songling has been secretly helping Qianqi Camp collect information."
"oh."
Tao Ruolin obviously knew Lu Zhu. After taking a look, she withdrew her gaze and showed a sweet smile: "Didn't we just meet yesterday? Do you miss me?"
Chu Qing smiled and said, "I think so."
Tao Ruolin's smile became even sweeter: "Are you thinking about it at night?"
Chu Qing nodded: "I think so."
"Are you thinking about it all the time?"
"Roughly the same."
Tao Ruolin lowered her head and pointed to her forehead: "Then come and kiss me gently."
Chu Qing was confused.
"Come on, what are you doing standing still?"
Chu Qing stood up, a little excited.
The more contact she has with Tao Ruolin, the less able she is to understand this girl's brain circuitry.
Walking over and kissing Tao Ruolin's forehead gently, Chu Qing asked jokingly: "Is this progressing too fast? The relationship was only confirmed yesterday."
"I'm already twenty-seven years old." Tao Ruolin's eyes shone, and she waved her pink fists: "You come to propose marriage in January, and the wedding will be held in the spring of next year. I will be pregnant in Liujia in early summer, so it is best to have the baby in winter.
How about a son and a daughter next."
"Sister, you are too anxious."
Tao Ruolin narrowed her eyes: "You don't agree?"
"No, everything else is fine. As for pregnancy... I've heard of premature birth, but I've never heard of five months premature birth."
"That's true." Tao Ruolin frowned slightly, her face full of displeasure: "We have to wait for a long time."
"Then let's hurry up and make progress." Chu Qing sat on the bed: "In a few days, your eldest brother and Master Tao, I will propose marriage, how about it?"
"It's a deal." Tao Ruolin smiled again and hugged Chu Qing's shoulders like the two brothers: "My eldest brother doesn't agree, so you can think of a reason to arrest him in the Qianqi Camp prison, and release him after he gets married.
Come out, I'll go talk to dad."
Chu Qing was overjoyed and was too embarrassed to take on this problem.
In order to devote himself to justice, your eldest brother almost didn't buy one and get one free.
Tao Ruolin began to frown again: "But how can I persuade the emperor?"
Chu Qing's pupils shrank: "What does your marriage have to do with the emperor?"
"The emperor back then..."
Chu Qing's expression changed slightly: "Don't tell me that the emperor wants to have sex with you... and wants to marry you?"
"He's not stupid." Tao Ruolin replied angrily.
Chu Qing breathed a big sigh of relief, and then his expression froze again. Listening to these words, he felt that something was wrong.
Tao Ruolin sighed: "I wish I wouldn't have said those words to him so foolishly."
Chu Qing became nervous again: "What did you say to the emperor?"
"My father is indifferent to fame and wealth. He can be the emperor's teacher and will not get involved in court disputes. My brother is a scholar and an upright person. He can be the young minister of Dali Temple. They were promised official positions to ensure that my Tao family will be rich for three generations. I will marry into an ordinary family.
He doesn’t hear about the affairs of the world, he doesn’t ask about the people of the world, he doesn’t make friends with famous families, and he doesn’t make friends with courtiers.”
Chu Qing was dumbfounded: "You told the emperor... that you want an imperial master and a young minister of Dali Temple. In exchange, you will live an honest life?"
Tao Ruolin nodded sadly.
Chu Qing's brain couldn't turn around at all. Why did the emperor seem to be extremely afraid of Tao Ruolin?
Seeing Chu Qing's dull look, Tao Ruolin held her chin up and murmured: "The emperor knew that I couldn't sit idle, and he hated being a daughter, so he made this agreement with me. Looking back now, I am really annoyed."
At this point, Tao Ruolin clenched her pink fist and gave Chu Qing a pestle: "Why didn't you show up earlier?"
Chu Qing: "..."
"Forget it, I'll go to the palace another day and tell him that the agreement won't count. At the worst, my father and brother will be relieved of their official positions."
Tao Ruolin smiled again, stood up and walked out of the bedroom, urging Bihua to get her something to eat, saying she was hungry.
Looking at Tao Ruolin's back, Chu Qing looked strange.
Tao Ruolin gave him a feeling, a feeling that it was normal to tell the emperor that he would not accept his debts if he did not accept them.
"How can you be so easy to talk to today?" Chu Qing thought of the years when he was imprisoned in the sky prison, and said to himself: "Isn't this grandson always unreasonable? I can't."
