Even when Wu Yong came in, he turned a deaf ear and turned a deaf ear.
The candlestick on the side has long been burned out.
The young master is copying scriptures.
I stayed overnight.
At this time, the room was quiet, but there was always a hint of condensation in the room.
Wu Yong listened carefully, and the sound of cicadas outside the courtyard finally stopped, but the sound of logging began to come and go, mixed with a bit of noise.
Last night, the young master came back in the middle of the night. When he came back, his complexion was ashen and his expression was clearly discordant.
Wu Yong has been serving the young master for many years, and has rarely seen much emotion from the young master's face. As an adult, Master Shen Shen Lang has a cold and majestic temperament, neither happy nor sad. His face rarely showed any emotion, even if he was happy or angry, it was the same as before.
In other words, for Shen Lang as an adult, there are not many things in this world that are worthy of making him happy or sad. Even if there are slight emotional changes, usually only Wu Yong and Yayoi are at his service. Only people can find out.
However, the young master's demeanor last night was clearly known to everyone.
It's the kind that's visible to the naked eye.
Not long after he came back, he thought the cicadas were noisy outside the house, so he ordered his private guards to wipe out all the cicadas. The guards, each of whom had special skills, never imagined that one day their extraordinary skills would be used to catch cicadas.
Still dissatisfied, he coldly ordered the entire forest to be cut down.
Afterwards, I spent the whole night copying scriptures. Even now, the frustration on my face has not completely dissipated.
In Wu Yong's impression, the last time the young master looked like this was when he was brought into Hanshan Temple by Master Yuan Yi when he was a child. At that time, the young master thought that the princess and the Shen family no longer wanted him, so he gave him to him. After sending him away, he locked himself in the Zen room all night.
From then on, for more than ten years, even if the sky fell, the young master's mood was not ups and downs for a moment.
This scene last night can be said to be the first of its kind.
While Wu Yong was shocked again and again, he felt trembling with fear and fear, and did not dare to express his anger.
The entire Yuqingyuan was as silent as cicadas. Except for the cicadas last night, no living creature made any sound.
Wu Yong guessed that it might be related to the person from Qinfang Courtyard in Beiyuan.
Yesterday, the young master asked him to find a glass vase. After dinner, the young master took the glass bottle and left, only to return at midnight. Although the young master behaved mysteriously last night, Wu Yong clearly and keenly guessed it. That one must be related.
This is...a quarrel and a quarrel, a complete breakdown of face?
Yes, this is not difficult to understand.
The young master is getting married in two months, but he doesn't care about the person in Qinfang Courtyard. That's all. He actually plans to send that person out of Qingyuan. The person in Qinfang Courtyard doesn't care about her. Strange?
Wu Yong was slandering in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.
For a moment, the meal was respectfully placed on the Eight Immortals table, and he reported to the motionless figure on the table: "Young master, the carriage and horse are ready, it is a commercial green tent belonging to the company. The two-headed carriage has an ordinary appearance, but the interior has been re-decorated. All the interiors are made with tributes from the Western Regions. I guess even riding it for more than a month will not cause any harm to the body."
"The boat at the dock is also ready. It is the Baofu of Chen Kee Boat. It is a time-honored ship and has been bought by a subordinate. The crew on the boat have been replaced. Both waterways are ready. Young Master Lord, when do you think it will be used?”
Wu Yong reported the results of his busy night last night one by one.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the figure paused slightly. The next moment, Shen Lang frowned slightly, lowered his eyes and swept away. A drop of thick ink from the pen tip fell on the white rice paper, and the entire rice paper was invalid. .
Shen Lang stared at the black dot, and the upset that he had suppressed all night suddenly surfaced again.
After putting down the pen, I took out the rice paper, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it out the window.
Then, his slender fingers rubbed the center of his eyebrows.
But the moment he touched his eyebrows, he suddenly remembered the kiss between his eyebrows last night.
He immediately threw up his sleeves and said coldly: "Three days later."
When he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth pursed into a straight line.
Upon seeing this, Wu Yong immediately accepted the order and said: "Okay, my subordinates will make arrangements now."
As he spoke, he quietly glanced in the direction of the black-faced jade-faced figure, and subconsciously asked: "Then... do you want me to go and inform Miss Liu in advance?"
Wu Yong pretended to ask casually.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a sharp and cold gaze instantly swept towards his face. The gaze was so sharp that it seemed to cut his entire face into two pieces.
Wu Yong immediately shrank his neck. He knew that his little thoughts were not enough, but he still smiled and said: "Mainly... Mainly because it will be that person's birthday in half a month. I heard that... The girl is busy arranging the gift for that person, why don’t you wait for that person’s big gift before——”
Halfway through, when he touched Shen Lang's expressionless eyes, Wu Yong immediately changed his words and said: "Those logging guys are clumsy, don't ruin the jasmine tree that the young master planted a few days ago. , my subordinates immediately followed him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yong immediately rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and disappeared completely in an instant.
As soon as Wu Yong left, Shen Lang pursed his lips and thought of the scene where the two had a fight last night. He also thought of the scenes of hanging out with people during the day yesterday. His chest still couldn't help but rise and fall violently. She only felt that there was still a turbid air in her chest, and she gritted her teeth slightly at one point: another half month would still not turn her upside down.
Chapter 149
At the same time, the east courtyard of Qinfang Courtyard.
As soon as it dawned, Pinyue Shen's mysterious cat entered the main room.
At this moment, Yao Yulan is sitting in front of the dressing table applying medicine. After a month, the scar on her forehead has long healed and turned into a light pink scar. However, I don’t know if it is because of her constitution. Logically speaking, with the As time goes by, scars will only gradually disappear. However, the scar on her forehead not only did not fade away, but seemed to continue to grow. The pink mark became wider and wider, gradually thickened, and seemed to be growing.
A doctor was invited to investigate. The doctor said that some people have a scarring constitution, and the scars are difficult to dissipate and may even grow over time. There are not many people with this kind of constitution, and unfortunately she just happens to have it.
Women all love beauty.
Although this wound was inflicted by her own hands, it was the result of her desperate efforts.
Even if she was given another chance to choose, she would still paddle up again without hesitation.
However, looking at the scars that were getting thicker and more ugly, even when she raised her hand to touch it gently, the scars were protruding, slightly squirming, and Yao Yulan suddenly felt upset.
A woman should look good to those who please her.
This is the first hurdle to enter Yuqingyuan.
But if there are a hundred steps leading to the final point of her dream, she has just taken the first step.
At this moment, Yao Yulan suddenly thought of Liu Yingying next door, and looked at her ugly self in the bronze mirror opposite. In an instant, she raised her hand and brushed the bronze mirror in front of her off the dressing table.
Along with it, the jewelry on the dressing table was scattered on the ground.
At this time, Cuicui heard the movement and came immediately and said: "Girl, what's wrong?"
But Yao Yulan put away the gloomy look on her face for a moment, smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, I accidentally knocked it over -"
After saying that, he slowly stood up, stepped on the bronze mirror with his feet, and said calmly: "Since the thing is damaged, just throw it away."
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and saw Pinyue, who was following Cuicui, who was filled with indignation. Yao Yulan's expression paused, and then she quickly said with a smile: "What's wrong, sister Yue'er, who is bullying you?" Yes, but I'm tired of working here. If there's anything wrong with you, just tell me. You're a member of the old lady's yard, so I mustn't let you be bullied."
Yao Yulan said to Pinyue with a considerate look on her face.
Pinyue worked as an errand at Liu Yingying's place for several months and suffered from misfortune for several months. However, when she arrived at Yao Yulan's place, she was supported by Yao Yulan and wore a high hat everywhere. She felt extremely grateful. When she thought about what happened last night, she suddenly felt She became more and more indignant, and for a moment she said to Yao Yulan with a meaningful look on her face: "Miss Yao, you have been injured these days to recuperate, and you can't go out even if you have no choice but to do so. You must not close your eyes and listen, you must always be wary of the villains around you, be careful of villains, don’t let others take away the fat you got, which will be bad.”
Pinyue followed the example of her mother in the house, pretending to be mysterious and speaking in a sophisticated manner.
Sure enough, when Yao Yulan heard this, she was immediately shocked and said, "How can my sister say this?"
Then she saw Pinyue clearing her throat and then glanced at Cuicui. Yao Yulan saw this and immediately winked at Cuicui. Cuicui immediately stepped back. As soon as Cuicui left, she saw Pinyue immediately felt proud and excited. The mysterious secret made Yao Yulan's saliva fly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yao Yulan suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "Sister, are you serious about what you said?"
Pinyue immediately raised her hand over her head and said: "I have seen it with my own eyes. If this statement is true, I am willing to be struck by lightning from the sky."
As he spoke, he immediately gritted his teeth and said: "Miss Yao, you haven't seen it with your own eyes. You hugged me so tightly that even I felt ashamed when I saw it. The key is, the key is that the eldest young master also caught the fireflies himself. I gave her such a big jar in a glass bottle. What a treasure the glass is. The eldest son gave it to her as soon as he said so. I said, the man surnamed Liu is restless at first glance, with those devilish eyes. It's charming, as if there are a bunch of hooks hidden in it, and it can seduce people anytime and anywhere. She doesn't look like a girl raised by a serious family, just like a slut in the hook bar, I guess. I didn’t like it at first sight, and it turned out to be a trick."
"I used to hook up with the Sixth Young Master, but I didn't expect that now I want to set my sights on the Eldest Young Master. Everyone in the entire Shen family doesn't know who the Eldest Young Master is, and the Eldest Young Master will be here in less than two months. When a man is about to get married, ordinary people will avoid it when they see a man who is about to get married. Only such a vixen will continue to pounce on him shamelessly. From Yi Nunu's point of view, she is doing it on purpose, and they are all the same. When she came out of the yard, her dream of being rich and powerful was shattered, but now she is watching you step into the nest of wealth, soar up the clouds and fly up the branches to become a phoenix. She must be so angry that she wants to take it from you. As for food, it's really hateful to be so mean."
"Didn't you see that yesterday, in the courtyard, the little goblin hugged and hugged the eldest young master, and even kissed him so hard that they were inseparable, and the eldest young master didn't know either? After all, she was obsessed with something, but she didn't push or stop her. If the slave hadn't gotten up in the middle of the night and heard the noise, who would have known that she had stooped to this level and directly aroused people in the big yard. Come here, this servant looks coldly at the familiar face from yesterday, I’m afraid they’ve hooked up with each other in private so many times already——”
"Let me just say, during those days when I lived in the Western Courtyard, the whole courtyard became weird at night. Recently, I bumped into a female ghost at night. Maybe she was that bitch. People are pretending to be weird. By the way, Miss Yao, there are a few days in a month when the old disease relapses and no one sees the little hoof. Tell me, who has such a weird disease and dare not see people when he is sick? In my opinion , there must be something fishy here, maybe he is taking advantage of the days when he is pretending to be sick to hook up with people——"
As he said this, he described what happened last night vividly and with added detail, making him salivate.
He even made it up at random, and even made it look like they were dancing under the fireflies at the end.
Finally, he made the final decision: "Anyway, if she hooks up with the eldest son, she will not be able to shake her status as cousin. Then you will be the one who suffers."
On that day, Pinyue arranged eloquently for a quarter of an hour with Yao Yulan. In the end, Yao Yulan showed her gratitude and protection by giving Pinyue some fruits and a new horse. .
Pinyue then left with a smile.
As soon as Pinyue left, the smile on Yao Yulan's face disappeared bit by bit. In the end, her long nails dug into her flesh bit by bit.
The wedding date on the eighth day of August has not yet arrived, and everything is still unresolved.
Moreover, although the beautiful talk of a maid serving two husbands was brought about by the cousin, and although Mrs. Shen readily agreed, she never heard a word about the eldest son's words or opinions on the matter.
Yao Yulan still refused to completely let go.
The eldest son, that god-like man, was the one who struck her as a god when she first saw him. Although there was a huge difference between them, and even though she was just wishful thinking, she could still see such a stunning person at the first sight. , and can no longer see anyone else in his eyes.
For so many years, Yao Yulan has been guarding this thought carefully, never daring to reveal anything. Even her personal maid Cuicui did not know her thoughts. Four full years have passed, and it is only now that she has revealed her thoughts. With such a slight opportunity to get close to the other party, she would never allow anyone to interfere with it.
Thinking like this, I saw Yao Yulan suddenly sitting upright and shouting: "Cui Cui."
Cuicui heard the sound and came immediately.
Then Yao Yulan asked with a gloomy expression: "Have the people sent to Yuanling returned?"
Cuicui glanced at Yao Yulan and said, "It should be these two days."
Yao Yulan said: "In the past two days, you will go to the dock to guard it personally. There is no room for any mistakes in this matter."
When she said this, Yao Yulan's usually gentle and generous face flashed with a hint of fierceness.
Separated from the west courtyard by a wall.
Speaking of this night, Liu Yingying stayed up almost all night, but after taking a nap on the bed for a while, she got up at dawn, took a bath, washed up, and then personally went to the kitchen to bring porridge and food to serve in front of Wu's bed.
Wu had been seriously ill for a whole night. When she woke up, her fever had subsided, but her voice was hoarse due to intense heat. Now her mind returned to normal. When she opened her eyes, she saw Liu Yingying busy in the room, and her eyes suddenly turned red. He hurriedly called Liu Yingying to the bed, took Liu Yingying's hand with a look of regret and distress and said, "Ying'er, it's mother's fault. Mother shouldn't blame you, let alone torment you. Come on, stop working. Don't move around, it will be bad if...if you are shocked to your stomach."
Mrs. Wu was too anxious yesterday, so she spoke indiscriminately.
Now that the night has passed, my mood has finally calmed down.
Instead of blaming Liu Yingying for her anger, she clearly felt sorry for her daughter.
However, after she calmed down and realized that it was already over, no matter how much she regretted it, it was too late. For a moment, she was afraid of her previous mood, afraid... afraid of being pregnant. This frightened Liu Yingying, and she immediately pulled her tightly. Liu Yingying comforted her hand and said: "It doesn't matter, no matter what, my Ying'er will never get married, and my mother will support you for the rest of her life. My daughter has suffered so much outside these years, and she really misses me." It doesn’t matter if my son gets married so soon and stays by his mother’s side for the rest of his life. He can support one mother or two, so what’s the big deal? If the sky falls, my mother will support him.”
Mrs. Wu herself was very ill and weak, and her voice was extremely hoarse when she spoke, but she still devoted herself to comforting Liu Yingying. She changed her words and said with some regret: "It's just...it's just a pity for those two things." It’s marriage.”
