Putting down the chopsticks in her hand, Haoyueyi sighed. Lan Zichu automatically ignored the faint sorrow between Haoyue Yi's brows and strode over to sit opposite Haoyue Yi. He picked up his chopsticks and picked up the plate of crab roe and fresh mushrooms closest to Haoyueyi. He said with satisfaction,"Mmm, this tastes good. The crab roe was fresh and tender, so the fresh mushrooms should have been fried first and then simmered with soup. After it was boiled, he added the crab roe into it. Because of the oil, the fishy smell of the crab roe was removed.”After saying that, he smacked his lips in an exaggerated manner as if he had not had enough. Then, he generously reached out his hand to the jade hairpin chicken in the crystal plate.
Lan Zichu, whose mouth was full of grease, was about to speak when Hao Yueyi, who was sitting opposite him, opened his thin lips and said,""The ancients said,'Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep.'" With that, she picked up the spoon from the plate and scooped a spoonful of snow pear with rock sugar into her mouth. The sweet snow pear seemed to temporarily ease Haoyue Yi's bitterness.
Lan Zichu, who was at a loss for words, swallowed the chicken in his mouth with difficulty and snorted coldly. Then, she angrily reached for the fried Crucian Carp, Dinghu vegetarian, Sesame Phoenix Roll, and even the two plates of dried grapes and honey tangerines on the table.
Hao Yueyi shook her head helplessly as she watched Lan Zichu 'wipe out' all the dishes on the table. She thought that Lan Zichu was a cold person, but he had a childish side to him. Although she had only known Lan Zichu for a few hours and she still didn't understand his character, at least she could feel that he didn't have any ill intentions towards her.
Haoyue Yi lifted her hand and took the white jade teapot from the table. She took the teacup in front of her and slowly poured a cup of tea. She silently pushed it in front of Lan Zichu, who was in a bad mood.
He didn't expect Haoyue Yi to pour tea for him. He was stunned for a few seconds, then mumbled a vague "thank you", picked up the teacup and drank it with an unnatural expression.
" Miss Wan 'er," Hao Yueyi called out to the outside of the tent.
Wan 'er heard the voice and came in." Madam, what can I do for you?"”。
"Remove the food on the table and prepare some fragrant soup. I want to take a bath.”Haoyue Yi sounded tired.
Wan 'er quickly packed up the leftovers and then poured a few buckets of hot water into the big wooden bucket behind the screen. Then, he sprinkled rose petals, milk, green wood incense, Lingling incense, and other spices.
She rolled up her sleeves and tested the water temperature with her hand. Wan 'er said,"Furen, this servant has tried. The water temperature is just right. Do you need this servant to serve you in your bath?”
Besides Liusu, Haoyue Yi was not used to having someone else serve her while she was bathing. She quickly said,""No need, I can do it myself. You can leave.”
Wan 'er nodded and left the tent with the bucket.
Hao Yue Yi stood up from the rose chair and said to Lan Zichu as if it was a matter of course," I want to take a shower. Please leave." After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the screen without looking back.
His mood had just recovered from Haoyue Yi's cup of tea, but now he was angry again. Displeased, he shouted at Haoyue Yi's back behind the screen,"Hey, it's so late and you want me to go out? It's so windy outside. Do you have a conscience?”
The graceful figure reflected on the screen did not speak. A fair hand draped a dark blue brocade robe on the screen, followed by the woman's white inner robe, and finally a light pink inner robe.
She stretched out her jade-like toes to test the temperature of the water, then immersed her body in the warm water sprinkled with rose petals. Her black hair floated on the surface of the water and formed a strange net.
Lan Zichu heard the sound of water splashing and realized that Hao Yueyi had already entered the wooden tub to take a bath. His face quickly turned red. Even though Haoyue Yi couldn't see him, she still turned around and muttered,"Do not look at me! Do not look at me!"
Through the screen, Haoyue Yi saw Lan Zichu's back facing her. The corner of Haoyue Yi's mouth curled up slightly, and he immersed his entire body in the hot water without any scruples, leisurely sprinkling water on his body. Leaning against the wall of the wooden barrel, he placed one hand on the side of the barrel and played with the bright rose petals floating on the water surface with the other. The water was just right in front of her chest, and her fair skin was faintly discernible.
Hot air filled the tent. It was unknown whether it was the steam in the room or the seductive sound of water behind the screen that made Lan Zichu's face turn red with anxiety. Finally, she said," I'm going out for some fresh air." Lan Zichu left the tent in a hurry.
Seeing Lan Zichu walk out of the tent, Wan 'er, who was waiting outside, quickly asked,""Young Master, do you have any instructions?"
"Uh, it's fine. It's too hot inside. I came out to cool down and it's a little stuffy. I came out to get some fresh air.”Lan Zichu said as he pretended to leisurely take a few steps forward, as if he was admiring the scenery at night.
Hearing this, Wan 'er's mouth twitched. She looked at the sky speechlessly and then at Lan Zichu who was a few steps away from her. This Young Master Lan was really strange. It was so windy outside, yet he came out to enjoy the shade? The sky was pitch black, and there were no stars in sight. Could it be that he didn't sleep and came out to admire the moon at night? But the moon didn't come out tonight either…Wan-Er couldn't figure it out and shook her head helplessly. The first requirement of being a servant was not to talk too much. Don't say what you shouldn't say, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and just do what you should do. So he stood on the spot again and let Lan Zichu walk back and forth outside the tent alone.
Lan Zichu walked in front of Wan 'er for a long time. When Wan' er was about to faint from Lan Zichu's actions, Lan Zichu finally entered the tent.
The steam in the room had gradually dispersed, and there was no sound of water. Lan Zichu walked to the rose chair beside the table and sat down. Because his body had been exposed to the cold wind for too long, he asked with a trembling voice,""Hey, you took such a long shower. Are you done?”
Hao Yue Yi didn't answer. Lan Zichu raised his voice and asked again, but there was still no response. "Hey, Haoyue Yi, are you alright?”
Lan Zichu hurriedly got up and walked behind the screen. He saw Haoyue Yi's hands on both sides of the wooden barrel, and her body was lying comfortably in the barrel, sleeping. Her smooth skin was exposed in front of Lan Zichu, her first reaction was to cover her eyes with her hands.
He thought that Haoyue Yi had been bathing for so long that the water should be cold. If he stayed in the cold water for too long, he would catch a cold. In order not to let Haoyue Yi "drag" him down, it was better to kindly carry her out of the water.
Just as she reached out her hand to touch the wooden bucket, she thought about how it was inappropriate for men and women to be intimate. So he turned around and walked out. He said to Wan 'er, who was still guarding outside,"Miss Wan Er, my wife took too long to bathe and fell asleep in the wooden bucket. I want to carry her out, but look, my arm is injured. It's really inconvenient. Please help me carry my wife to the bed.”After saying that, she even raised her unbandaged arm with an "embarrassed" look.# Review: hch471000 Time:111420183: 31PM #Cancel review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
