Speaking of the fact that the Zhou family was very dissatisfied after being rejected in front of the princess's mansion, they did not give up easily. After that, Mrs. Liu and Zhou Yizhu came to the door again and again to ask for an audience, and even if they were rejected, they did not give up. It can be called "perseverance".
It's just that this "perseverance" was trying to use herself as a ladder to climb up. Du Shichu felt disgusted, so she never planned to meet this family.
But this family didn't just disappear without her thinking. I wonder if the Liu family sent someone to keep an eye on the princess's mansion. As long as Du Shichu went out, the Liu family would know. Du Shichu finally went out and wanted to buy cakes on the street. , get some air, no, Du Shichu saw Zhou Yizhu in front of Xiangmanlou pastry shop.
Zhou Yizhu held a folding fan and when he saw Du Shichu, he said with a look of "surprise": "Cousin! I didn't expect you to be here. Do you also like to eat the delicious pastries? What a coincidence, my mother and sister They also like it very much..."
When Du Shichu saw him, she immediately understood that this man had come prepared and had met her by chance, so she said with a half-smile: "I didn't expect that my cousin is so filial and he came here specially to buy cakes for your mother." ? Then you buy it, I just finished buying it and left first."
"Hey, cousin, wait a minute!" Zhou Yizhu shouted hurriedly when he heard this. His original purpose was to meet Du Shichu, and buying pastries was just a dispensable excuse. How could he give up for pastries now? Getting along with Du Shichu?
"Cousin, don't leave in a hurry. We haven't seen each other for so long. Why don't we find a place to chat so that I can know how you are doing during this time." Zhou Yizhu looked caring.
"No need, I'm living a good life. Cousin, don't just talk to me. The pastries are running out. How can you return empty-handed when you are so filial?" Du Shichu shook his head and reminded him "anxiously" , "Hurry up, Xiangmanlou's pastries are sold out and we have to wait until the next day."
Zhou Yizhu was urged by her and suddenly didn't know whether he should give up on her and go queue up. If he didn't go in line to buy cakes, wouldn't Du Shichu know that he didn't come here to buy cakes for his mother, but Did you come here specifically to meet her? In this case, can my cousin have a good impression of me?
Before Zhou Yizhu finished struggling, Du Shichu left directly. She had no interest in wasting time with annoying people.
So there was no need for Zhou Yizhu to be in a dilemma. When he looked up again, Du Shichu's carriage had already gone away. He was so angry that he almost broke his fan.
Du Shichu, who was sitting on the carriage, picked up a piece of red bean cake and handed it to the little lion's mouth. The little lion immediately stretched out its pink tongue and started to lick it quickly. It was not picky about food at all and was excited to eat. She would hold down Du Shichu's hand with her little paws, fearing that she would suddenly move away to prevent him from eating it.
"What a greedy little cat." Du Shichu couldn't help but rub its belly. The fur on its belly was thick and dense, soft and comfortable to the touch, and Du Shichu couldn't put it down.
"Meow meow..." The little lion finished eating the piece of red bean cake, licked Du Shichu's hand again, then turned his head to look at Du Shichu, his green eyes were watery, bright and charming, looking at Du Shichu's At this time, he never forgets to coquettishly ask Du Shichu for food.
Du Shichu couldn't help but tap its wet little nose with his finger and said, "Do you still want to eat? If you want to eat, lie down and let me touch your belly."
The little lion immediately moved neatly to her knees, revealing his snow-white belly, and raised his four little paws obediently. He didn't forget to look at her with his eyes, and meowed, as if calling her "Hurry up." Touch it, let me eat it after you touch it..."
When Du Shi first saw it like this, he couldn't help laughing. At the same time, he unceremoniously rubbed his belly and said, "Are you going to become a spirit, little lion? When you become a spirit, do you want to be my little demon concubine?" ?”
"Meow meow..." the little lion responded with a roar, narrowed his round eyes, and obediently allowed himself to be touched.
So half of the cakes Du Shichu bought went into the little lion's belly. Fortunately, Du Shichu had pills with various uses and strange uses. Otherwise, if he ate them this way, he could eat them back to the Meow Planet.
Zhou Yizhu successfully "accidentally met" Du Shichu in Xiangmanlou, but he was very annoyed that he failed to seize the opportunity to get along with her. When he returned home, he was asked repeatedly about the situation by Mrs. Liu, and he suddenly became very impatient. : "Mom, I think she looks down on us now that she has become the princess. She doesn't want to pay attention to me at all. I have obviously met her and told her that I wanted to find a place to have tea and chat about her arrival. The situation after Beijing, but she refused without giving me any face, and looked like she was afraid of me. I think she is just burning bridges..."
"You've seen her and started talking to her, but you still haven't found a way to coax her into getting along with you? You're so useless!" Mrs. Liu said to him with hatred.
"I was so embarrassed to please her, but she just didn't give her face. What can I do?" Zhou Yizhu became angry and said, "I'm useless, so why don't you go find her in person? Oh, I forgot, she doesn't even do that. Damn it, you, my cousin, don’t even want to see you in person!"
"You, you treacherous son!" Ms. Liu was stabbed in the leg and became furious, "Who do I shamelessly want to depend on the princess for? Why are you so heartless?! I'm not thinking about you? You Now you have to poke my heart like this, I have just fed the dog after all my hard work..."
When Zhou Yizhu heard her crying, he immediately felt ashamed and apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, mother, it was my unruly words. I know that you tried every means to get into the princess's mansion because of me and our Zhou family. It's because your son is unfilial and doesn't understand your hard work..."
Although Mrs. Liu was sad when she heard that her son had admitted his mistake, she quickly recovered. Zhou Yizhu was the eldest son she had high hopes for. Her future success as a mother depended on him, so she was just angry for a while. , I am not angry with Zhou Yizhu.
Zhou Yizhu then sighed and said: "Hey, Brother Zhu, don't blame your mother for forcing you to please the princess. You don't know that people from the Liu family in Lincheng have also come to the princess's mansion yesterday. Yes, the princess has met him."
"What? How come someone from the Liu family is here? Aren't they always in Lincheng?" Zhou Yizhu suddenly became concerned and asked quickly, "Who is here from the Liu family?"
"It's Liu Wei'an, the princess's cousin. The relationship is much closer than the relationship between you and the princess. They are real cousins." Liu said calmly.
"What should we do?" Zhou Yizhu suddenly became anxious, "My cousin is here, what chance do we have of winning?"
"Calm down! As far as I know, although the Liu family in Lincheng and the princess are blood relatives, their relationship is no better than ours." Mrs. Liu glanced at her anxious son and said.
