The cicadas chirp indiscriminately, making people feel restless.
Ziling and Lvchun walked away with their faces covered in sweat, and the handkerchiefs they held in their hands were already wet.
I don’t know why these days, it’s been so hot that I feel panicking. Even under the shade of a tree, I can’t feel the slightest bit of coolness.
Following Xu Chunjun's instructions, they went to see what else needed to be added to the residence prepared for the Xu family.
After all, it is already very rare that Mrs. Marquis has arranged a place to live. You can't just accuse others of doing everything meticulously.
You have to go there and look around carefully to feel at ease.
"Go back and tell the girl that all the big things are ready. If you want to buy more, don't worry. We'll wait until the family members arrive and we'll buy more." Zi Ling couldn't help wiping her sweat again, "Today
It's really hot, thank you for not asking the girl to come out."
Xu Chunjun originally wanted to come in person, but Ziling and Lvchun refused to ask her to come out. It was too hot today!
"Good sister, let's sit down and have a rest. I really can't walk anymore and I'm very thirsty." She said, fanning herself.
"There is a herbal tea shed over there. Let's sit down and have a rest." Zi Ling was also very thirsty. They didn't hire a carriage, thinking it was just three streets and they could just walk there.
Unexpectedly, the weather was really frighteningly hot. Even if I stood there motionless, I would be covered in sweat.
I went to the herbal tea shed and ordered two bowls of ice water. The person who ordered the tea was a mother-in-law in her sixties, but her hands and feet were extremely quick. She quickly prepared it and served it to them, and also gave them a small plate of sour plums.
After taking a sip of ice water, Green Ulva felt so good that she sighed: "Now I feel like I'm still alive!"
"As promised, this is just this bowl. Don't eat too much, otherwise you will complain of abdominal pain when you go back." Zi Ling warned her.
"It's a pity that there is no Sushan here. The Sushan that Mr. Chen bought for us is so delicious!" Lvyan couldn't help but miss the Sushan that Chen Sijing bought for them. It was cold and sweet. If you eat it slowly, you can eat it for half an hour.
.
This is just a teahouse, and only exquisite food such as Sushan and Snow Balls can be made in the shop.
"I don't know what Young Master Chen is, but why does he appear every time I mention him?" Zi Ling said funny.
Lvyan stretched her neck, looked over Zi Ling's shoulder, and sure enough she saw Chen Sijing.
Chen Sijing was wearing official clothes today, but Zi Ling, who had a sharp eye, noticed at a glance that his official clothes were different from before. He had obviously been promoted to a higher level.
Chen Sijing also saw them and walked over with a smile. Ziling and Lvyan quickly stood up.
"Congratulations on your promotion, sir!" Zi Ling smiled and was blessed.
Only then did Lu Shen realize it and hurriedly followed her to congratulate her.
Chen Sijing was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed. This is all the fault of your young lady."
He was promoted because he solved Liu Er's case, and he felt very grateful to Xu Chunjun.
"Your Excellency helped me that day, but we haven't had time to say thank you yet! Thank you very much, Your Majesty." Zi Ling was referring to Chen Sijing's heroic intervention at the Qingping Lake that day, which prevented Cui Baoyu from being evil.
"You're welcome. In the end, thanks to Mr. Huo for bringing people there." Chen Sijing never likes to take credit, and he feels that what he did is ordinary.
"I'm afraid your Excellency has business, so we won't bother you." Zi Ling put down the tea money and took Lvchun away.
"You two ladies, please stay. I have something to ask of you." They walked not far away when Chen Sijing caught up with them from behind.
The two people hurriedly stopped and said, "If you have any orders, sir, just tell me."
Chen Sijing was always holding a long object in his hand, wrapped in cloth, and it was hard to tell what it was.
"This is a painting I got by accident. I want to give it to Miss Chunjun. Please help me take it back." Chen Sijing said and handed the thing in his hands over.
Lu Shen was about to pick her up when she was grabbed by Zi Ling. She seemed to remember something and quickly retracted her hand.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen. It's just that we can't take this thing. Even if you take it back, our girl won't want it." Zi Ling refused with a smile.
"Miss Ziling, don't get me wrong, I just want to thank Miss Xu for helping me with the case." Chen Sijing explained quickly.
"Thank you, sir. However, we girls have already told us that this matter is not of any importance, so we cannot ask for a thank you gift from you." Zi Ling still smiled, but her attitude was very firm, "Please don't embarrass us."
With that said, he said another blessing, picked up the green shield and walked away.
Chen Sijing was left standing there for a long time, then shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and walked away.
He is not laughing at others, he is laughing at himself.
Not laughing at myself for being sentimental, but laughing at myself for being smart.
He has been wandering around here for many days, just wanting to give this thing to Xu Chunjun.
The case has been closed, and he has no legitimate reason to go to Xu Chunjun again.
This painting was not obtained accidentally, but was the result of a deliberate search.
It was not to thank Xu Chunjun for helping him solve the case, it was just a high-sounding excuse.
He just wanted to give Xu Chunjun something to express his feelings.
After thinking about it, I felt that since Xu Chunjun named his two girls Ziling Lvchun, he must have loved and yearned for the scenery of Jiangnan.
He then painted dozens of Jiangnan landscape paintings by himself, and selected the most favorite one among them, framed it and did not sign it.
I just pretended that I found it elsewhere and gave it to Xu Chunjun.
He felt that Xu Chunjun was so smart that he must be able to understand the meaning here, so that he could use this to test Xu Chunjun's mind.
But who would have thought that even Xu Chunjun’s maid could not pass this test.
He was not disappointed by this, but actually liked Xu Chunjun even more in his heart.
Such a smart woman has trained the maids around her to be so polite and cautious, how can people dislike her?
Probably good things always come in hard times! "A fair lady, a gentleman is a good man", the emphasis is on the word "good".
You have to work hard and work hard.
At this time, Zi Ling and Lu Chun were almost in front of the Hou Mansion. Lu Chun stuck out his tongue and said: "Thank you for stopping me just now, otherwise I would have reached out to take it. If I really took it, I couldn't return it."
Already."
"The girl must have expected this, so she warned us in advance." Zi Ling said, "The girl is cautious and careful at all times. We can't ruin her reputation."
It turned out that after Chen Sijing bought Sushan for them, Xu Chunjun specifically told his two maids that no matter what Chen Sijing gave him, they could not ask for it again.
How could she not detect Chen Sijing's feelings?
But he had already promised Mrs. Hou that sooner or later he would marry into the Zheng family.
Long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain. If you feel unfeeling now, Chen Sijing will feel better in the future.
What's more, Xu Chunjun must ensure that she is not tempted. She knows that she is not qualified.
