When Dong Nuan saw that it was indeed getting late, she didn't make any excuses. In addition, she was also afraid that her presence would affect her study in Hanjiang Tower.
The other party will go to the examination room tomorrow, so he should take a rest early today.
"Yeah." Dong Nuan stood up and simply patted the wrinkles on her clothes before getting off the ground.
Compared to wearing simple jackets and trousers in the village, now we are much more sophisticated about wearing warm clothes in winter.
A peacock blue horse-faced skirt, paired with an ivory white embroidered stand-collar long-sleeved coat. Although the fabric is not very high-quality, the workmanship is pretty good.
Because Hanjianglou is currently focused on reading and spends most of his free time copying books, the clothes Dong Nuan is wearing are really not made by Hanjianglou.
In this regard, Hanjiang Tower is actually a little regretful.
However, the reality is this. If he doesn’t copy books, he will have no money!
Although I have savings, most of them have been handed over to Dong Nuan.
Therefore, the problem is that I have no money. If I don’t copy books, I can’t afford to eat.
The clothes that Dong Nuan wears now are either sewn by Dong Wu, or they are ready-made clothes that were bought directly and slightly repaired when they came back.
There are only so many good-looking ready-made clothes in the town, and you can find them almost all for winter warmth.
Of course, when these styles come to the county town, they are not very eye-catching, and the level and grade are not the same.
But I don't care about Dongnuan. In the eyes of others, I am probably just a village girl, and in fact, I don't need to pay so much attention to it.
After patting the folds on her skirt, Dong Nuan followed Han Jianglou out.
The scholar who lived in the other room also stopped and stopped reading.
My eyes are sore after looking at it for a long time, and now I am moving.
His wife was making a fire to cook. When she saw the two people leaving, she just smiled shyly, but she didn't have the nerve to ask any more questions.
After all, there are differences between men and women, and scholarly ladies are quite careful to avoid these things.
Dong Nuan didn't look much, and followed Hanjiang Tower away almost without looking away.
However, even though I didn't look much, I still saw it out of the corner of my eye.
The scholar would rather stand in the yard in a daze than help his wife light the fire or anything.
Although Dong Nuan knows that scholars are inherently proud, and there is a saying that a gentleman stays far away from the kitchen.
However, after actually seeing it, I still couldn't help but sigh.
In comparison, Hanjiang Tower seems particularly valuable.
Probably because he saw Dong Nuan's brows tightening slightly after going out.
Hanjianglou thought for a while and had some guesses in his mind. After getting on the donkey cart, he whispered: "Don't worry, Nuanya. From now on, the housework will be mine. You can do what you like with peace of mind."
At this point, for fear that Dong Nuan wouldn't believe what he said, Hanjianglou thought for a while and added: "In the future, if Nuan Ya thinks I did something bad, just say it directly, and I will correct it one by one. I will never say anything.
Two words."
In fact, Dong Nuan is still willing to trust Hanjianglou. For example, when the meal was being heated today, Hanjianglou was responsible for it. Dongnuan was like a noble lady, sitting in the room and waiting.
Now hearing the other party say such words, Dong Nuan nodded: "Hanjiang Tower, your eyes are so poisonous."
Obviously she didn't say anything, she just frowned and felt a little unhappy, but the other party still saw it.
This made Dong Nuan feel an indescribable feeling in her heart.
A little touched, and a little...
Silently sweet.
Maybe it's very little, maybe it's so light that you can't even notice it if you don't feel it carefully.
But, it really exists.
After Dong Nuan tasted it carefully, she couldn't help but smile.
Han Jianglou was confused at this moment. He didn't know why Dong Nuan was laughing, but in response to her previous words, he replied with a smile: "That's not entirely true. I just don't want Nuan Ya to work too hard."
After the little girl learned to resist and struggle, she was no longer the same as before. Hanjianglou was actually quite happy.
Therefore, he pays great attention to every detail.
Hanjianglou doesn't think that Dong Nuan is being pretentious after resisting addiction.
He thinks this is normal. The girl's family should raise her with dignity. He has no way for the time being to let Dong Nuan live a life of calling slaves and maids, but at least he can do his best.
The small courtyard of Hanjiang Tower is not particularly far from the magistrate's home, but it still takes a long time to drive the donkey cart.
On the way, Hanjianglou also asked Dongnuan what he wanted to eat. Hanjianglou kept the leftover dishes for lunch for himself to eat in the evening. He wanted to buy some fresh things for Dongnuan.
"What do Nuanya want to eat?" The two of them didn't talk much about the previous question. When Hanjianglou passed by the food stall, he asked casually.
Dong Nuan sat in the car, looking at the smoke of fireworks on both sides of the street, and couldn't help but watch for a while.
After a long time, he said slowly: "A sesame sesame cake, a portion of jujube cake, and a sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Let's eat with the big girl..."
Dongnuan ordered a few bits and pieces, and Hanjianglou quickly responded and went to buy some.
In fact, Dong Nuan didn't ask for anything more. The extra snacks he ordered were just for the sake of bringing them to the magistrate's house to look good.
Although this is a personal relationship, it is still a door-to-door visit, so you have to take some etiquette into account, and you are still staying.
In the end, the only things that Dong Nuan actually put into his mouth were one sesame seed cake and two jujube paste cakes.
The jujube paste cake that Dong Nuan likes is quite popular on this street. It's not much, only four yuan per portion, but the price is not low. Even so, there are many people buying it.
Dong Nuan ate two pieces, which was no longer a gift, so he wrapped the remaining two pieces and took them back to Hanjiang Tower for a midnight snack.
Hanjianglou didn't refuse. There was still leftover food at noon. When Dong Nuan came, he also brought some snacks, asking him to share them with his classmates so that everyone could get closer.
But Hanjiang Tower is not planning to give out the students. Even if they are finally separated, it will not be before the exam.
In case some people feel uncomfortable after eating it, or do this or that, they end up complaining.
Good intentions lead to bad things, Hanjiang Tower doesn't want that.
Therefore, even if we have to separate out in the end, we will do it after tomorrow’s exam.
But there is no need for Hanjiang Tower to tell Dong Nuan these words.
Dong Nuan sat in the car and had a full meal, then packed the jujube paste cakes for Hanjianglou. When she got there, she took the remaining snacks and knocked on the door of the magistrate's house.
Gou Qingyun had been waiting inside the door for a long time. If it weren't for the cold weather and the fact that it was getting dark, she would even want to wait outside.
Finally, the maid persuaded her to come down. When she heard the knock on the door, she ran faster than the maid. The concierge almost didn't react. Gou Qingyun had already rushed to the door.
After rushing over fiercely, Gou Qingyun realized that she seemed to be too excited.
Finally, he gently adjusted his clothes, pretending that nothing happened just now and said: "Hurry up and open the door."
concierge:……
Hey, we don’t dare to say it, and we don’t dare to ask it either.
The concierge went over to open the door obediently. Hanjianglou watched Dong Nuan enter the door, watched the concierge lead the donkey cart in, and then turned around and walked back.
The distance is not too far. He has fast feet and good physical strength, so it doesn't take long to walk back.
