Hearing this, the maid quickly put down her work, but because she was concerned about her own image, she just patted the door gently and called out in a voice as loud as a mosquito, "Miss Song, get up."
This effect is not as powerful as Chen Jinghuai's own.
Chen Jinghuai pushed the door, and then said, "Can you open this door?"
The maid nodded quickly, "Of course."
"Then open the door. No matter what method you use, you have to try to get her up for me."
With Chen Jinghuai's words, the maid also opened the door.
Considering the differences between men and women, Chen Jinghuai did not follow him. He just waited with his back against the corridor outside the yard.
Because he was so close, he could vaguely hear some movement in the courtyard. He could also tell from the maid's coaxing to her that Song Chuchu hadn't gotten up at all.
If he hadn't come here to look for someone, this girl wouldn't have known when she would turn over in her sleep.
Fortunately, after some fiddling with the maid, Song Chuchu finally opened her eyes. She glanced sleepily at the maid who woke her up, then yawned widely and said in a daze, "It's so early in the morning." What's your name?"
The maid pointed to the door and said, "The third young master asked you to get up. He also said that if you don't get up, it will be too late."
Hearing this, Song Chuchu, who was still stretching, seemed to remember the agreement she had made with Chen Jinghuai yesterday.
Oops! She had forgotten about it.
However, the red sun on the horizon has not yet completely penetrated into the house. Compared with the three-pole sun in the past, this should not be too late.
Therefore, Song Chuchu quickly calmed down again.
When she saw that Chen Jinghuai was indeed guarding her outside the door, she ran directly to the door and said, "Master Captain, you got up so early."
When Chen Jinghuai heard this, he thought she had already taken care of things. He was thinking that although this woman liked to stay in bed, she was still pretty fast in everything she did.
Therefore, he only turned around slowly, not wanting to see Song Chuchu in mid-shirt smiling stupidly at him.
Chen Jinghuai turned around quickly and scolded him, "Why don't you get dressed?"
Song Chuchu only felt that the other party's reaction was inexplicable.
Her clothes are well on her body, isn't she just wearing a middle coat?
Her middle coat exposed neither arms nor legs. Why was he so shy?
But even though she was complaining in her heart, Song Chuchu still smiled and said, "Didn't I hear that the captain came in person, so he came to apologize for my oversleeping today?"
Hearing that she was somewhat self-aware, it was hard for Chen Jinghuai to scold her.
He only said, "As long as you know that you have wasted your time."
Then he was afraid that Song Chuchu would continue to chat with him, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, stop talking to me now, and pack up quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late today."
After saying this, Chen Jinghuai simply strode out of the west wing.
He had seen last night how talkative Song Chuchu was. He, who was not a talkative person, was led by her to talk for a month.
So he didn't want to waste time on words with Song Chuchu, a chatty person.
It's a pity that he obviously underestimated the extent of Song Chuchu's delay.
While he was waiting in the outer courtyard, Song Chuchu just ordered the maid next to her to comb her hair after washing up. For a while, she just thought that this hairstyle was not good-looking and did not match her hairpin.
After all this fussing, more than half of the time passed.
When Chen Jinghuai came back again, he saw Song Chuchu still picking clothes in the cabinet.
Seeing Song Chuchu being picky, Chen Jinghuai understood at that moment that Song Chuchu didn't feel guilty at all, and she only had this mouth.
Seeing the sun rising outside, Chen Jinghuai couldn't help but said, "Miss Song, if we don't leave, we will have to sleep outdoors today."
After hearing these words, Song Chuchu stopped thinking about choosing. She quickly smiled and said, "I know, I will leave right away. But Brother Chen, I am really hesitant. I just don't know what I will wear today." Which dress is more suitable? Why don't you pick one for me."
Seeing that even though she said this, she still hadn't stopped selecting, Chen Jinghuai just took off a green robe.
He said, "This one looks good, just wear this one."
Looking at the green colors and the bright red flowers, Song Chuchu deeply felt that there was a huge gap between her and Chen Jinghuai's aesthetics.
"You really like this?" Song Chuchu couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Yes! This one shows off your skin." Chen Jinghuai just wanted to pull her out of the house as soon as possible. He didn't bother to see what she looked good in.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone from the outer courtyard came to urge him, so he simply pulled Song Chuchu out of the inner room.
When she got to the car, Song Chuchu reluctantly put on her coat, and it was also at this time that the coachmen who had been waiting here for a long time were waiting for someone.
Looking at the woman following the third young master, they knew that the long delay today was probably related to the woman in front of them.
When they thought about the possibility of sleeping in the wild today, they felt somewhat angry.
However, the young master didn't express anything, and they couldn't say anything. The only thing they could do now was to drive the carriage as fast as possible today.
It's a pity that their idea is good, but in practice it is very difficult.
Although the carriage was already paved with thick mats, after the carriage left the town, the road became somewhat uneven.
In addition, they increased their power, and within a moment, Song Chuchu began to faint from the carriage, and she felt that her whole body was about to be knocked apart by the carriage.
Therefore, under Song Chuchu's strong request, the carriage stopped and stopped all the way and could only slow down.
This also led to their failure to successfully enter the city before dark, and now they could only sleep in the wilderness.
The temperature difference between day and night in December is always huge. In addition, this is still the boundary of Yunzhou, so the humidity and coldness here are not as cold as those in Shangjing.
It was very dangerous to stay in the mountains overnight, so after realizing that he could not enter the city today, Chen Jinghuai simply ordered the others to stop before it got completely dark.
Then he just ordered everyone to collect firewood.
In the long nights in the countryside, apart from wild beasts, the most difficult thing to deal with is the rapid drop in body temperature.
Therefore, in the face of other issues, fire is obviously the most important thing.
Fortunately, others also obeyed Chen Jinghuai's instructions.
After Chen Jinghuai arranged for the others, he also went deep into the forest.
As for Song Chuchu, after seeing Song Chuchu's ability to do everything he couldn't do and hold others back, Chen Jinghuai gave up hope on him.
He only said to Song Chuchu, "Just stay here and look at everyone's luggage. If anything goes wrong, just call us loudly. We are all nearby."
Song Chuchu did suffer a lot today, and she had no intention of having fun at this time.
So she just nodded with a white face.
After explaining this clearly, Chen Jinghuai went to the side to collect firewood.
Unexpectedly, it took only a while to collect firewood, but Song Chuchu's scream suddenly came from the direction of the carriage.
When everyone heard the sound, they all thought something had happened, so they quickly put down their steps and went back.
Unexpectedly, when everyone returned to their original place, Song Chuchu, who was screaming, was sitting safely in the carriage.
Seeing everyone coming back, she just blinked innocently, "Why are you all back?"
Then her eyes only fell on the firewood held in the hands of others and said, "Is it enough for us to burn just this little firewood?"
When they saw that she was fine and just sitting on the carriage with her little legs dangling and licking melon seeds, everyone's expressions didn't look so good.
But for Chen Jinghuai's sake, they didn't say anything.
On the contrary, Chen Jinghuai kept a straight face and asked patiently, "What was your name just now?"
Hearing Chen Jinghuai mention this matter, Song Chuchu patted his chest with a scared look on his face and said, "I just went to look for things in the back and saw a black thing. I thought it was a snake, so I screamed. But later I found out I was wrong, it turned out that what fell from the package was a black piece of firewood."
After saying this, Song Chuchu couldn't help laughing.
It's a pity that she was the only one laughing at her joke, and everyone else just looked at him with a cold expression on their faces.
Realizing that something was wrong, Song Chuchu also stopped smiling.
Chen Jinghuai was also a little defensive at this time. He just said to Song Chuchu with a straight face, "Do you know how worried we were after hearing you scream just now? We thought something happened to you! Otherwise, why do you think we picked it up?" He came back with just this little firewood!"
When Song Chuchu heard this, she immediately lowered her head, although she wanted to say that she just screamed and had no intention of calling them back.
However, under the glare of everyone, she understood the principle of the minority obeying the majority. Therefore, after being scolded by Chen Jinghuai, Song Chuchu immediately knelt down and said, "I'm sorry, everyone! I really didn't really want to cause trouble." , I apologize to everyone! Otherwise, let me go to collect firewood with you!"
Looking at Song Chuchu's pitiful and sincere eyes, and her exceptionally standard apology gesture. ..
For some reason, Chen Jinghuai felt even more unhappy. I also don’t want to accept his apology.
However, years of etiquette education only made it difficult for him to have an attack even if he didn't want to forgive the other party at all when the other party apologized.
"Don't do that again next time," he warned in a low voice.
Song Chuchu quickly nodded sincerely.
However, after seeing her philosophy of knowing her mistakes but not correcting them, Chen Jinghuai obviously no longer cared about her insincerity. He just looked at the crowd and waved his hands and said, "I know everyone is also aggrieved, but it's getting late now." Okay, everyone should hurry up and collect firewood. We’ll talk about the rest later.”
After saying that, he put down the firewood in his hand and left without looking at Song Chuchu.
The others naturally followed suit and simply ignored Song Chuchu and left.
However, before leaving, some people just deliberately threw the firewood on the ground, and then said in an impatient voice, "I'm speechless!"
