The little maid was carrying the sobering soup to the study, but was stopped by Shuang Lian on the way.
"Give me the sobering soup! Madam just sent me to the study." Shuang Lian smiled and reached out to take the food box containing the sobering soup.
Of course the little maid will not doubt it, after all, Shuang Lian is now the equal of Shuangzi in the house.
Shuang Lian deliberately dressed up before coming, and also put on brightly colored clothes.
What she told others was that when a servant is in front of his master, he must mourn his elders for three months at most.
She has been mourning for Uncle Fu for three months, and during the Chinese New Year, Jiang Nuan is pregnant again.
It would be inappropriate for her to wear a mourning filial piety.
Not only did the people in the house have no suspicion, they also felt that she was considerate in everything she thought and did.
Shuang Lian was in a very good mood, because Wei Yu, who disliked seeing her the most, had been gone for many days.
I heard that Wei Yu went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors. He had been in the capital for many years and this was the first time he went back.
Shuang Lian felt that he was doing well now and wanted to go back and show off.
Otherwise, what is there to pay homage to for his gambling father!
Shuang Lian had her own plan in mind, which she had made up her mind as soon as she entered the house.
Originally she was thinking about Xu Xu Tuzhi, but she asked herself if she had the patience.
If the pendant doesn't compete with her, no one can compete with her.
What's more, Jiang Nuan is pregnant again, it's just the right time and the right place.
But recently, she sensed something was wrong.
Jiang Nuan occasionally asked her what kind of person she wanted to marry?
He also said that one year is old and the other is young, and life-long events cannot be postponed for too long.
He also said that he must make the decision for himself, and a dowry is indispensable.
Isn't this obviously trying to block the road that one has longed for?
It is still in the first month of the year and it is impossible to talk about marriage.
But after the first lunar month, it might not be possible.
Jiang Nuan, that idiot, was incited by someone who wanted to marry her off.
In fact, she just wanted to be Huo Tian's concubine, and would not threaten her as his legal wife.
Holding the sobering soup in hand, Shuang Lian quietly entered the study.
Huo Tian was lying on the couch with his eyes closed, wondering whether he was asleep or just resting his mind.
Today he is wearing Emperor Shi Qing's arrow sleeves, and his thin waist is tied with a wide belt.
His eyebrows were slightly furrowed, his thin lips pursed slightly, and his handsome face was cold and hard.
Only when his eyes are closed or his back is turned, Shuang Lian dares to stare at him boldly and passionately.
She asked herself that her friendship for Huo Tian was no worse than that of Jiang Nuan. When she was hungry and cold, she had already fallen deeply in love with Huo Tian at the first sight.
"My lord, my lord, what do you think?" Shuang Lian put down the hangover soup.
She asked Huo Tian softly, and when she was about to reach out to touch his arm, Huo Tian had already opened his eyes.
Because he drank a lot of wine, his eyes were not as clear as usual and were slightly red.
"Master, you're awake, do you want to drink hangover soup? It's warm now, but I'm afraid it will be cold in a while." Shuang Lian's voice was almost so gentle that it could drip.
"Okay, bring it over." Huo Tian was very polite to her.
"Then I'll help you up." Shuang Lian went to help him.
"No need." Huo Tian said and sat up.
Shuang Lian was slightly disappointed, but it only passed away briefly.
The night is getting long, don't be too anxious.
Huo Tian drank the hangover soup in one gulp and then placed the bowl on the table.
Shuang Lian hurriedly took out her handkerchief and wiped the soup stains from his lips.
Huo Tian instinctively ducked back and said, "I'll do it myself."
"My servant is here to serve you, how can I let the master do everything by himself?" Shuang Lian smiled, "otherwise, what are we supposed to do?"
"Are you coming from Madam's side?" Huo Tian asked.
"Well, Madam has already rested. She sent Xiaochan and I over here. She went to get the candles, and I'll come over first to deliver the hangover soup." Shuang Lian said and quickly put the bowl of hangover soup back into the food box.
inside.
"Okay, please step back, I want to take a nap." Huo Tian felt sleepy.
"Master, please lie down! I will cover you with a quilt and bring you a soup dumpling. It will be cold in the middle of the night." Shuang Lian said understandingly.
Then he quietly backed out, returned the food box to the kitchen, and then came back in with some soup.
Huo Tian was already fast asleep at this time, breathing heavily.
Xiaochan also came back with the candle, and Shuanglian turned off the light on the desk next to Huo Tian.
On the small table by the door, a small bright-corner lamp was lit.
So that Huo Tian can see it when he gets up at night.
"Sister Shuanglian, we are spending the night outside today, is your quilt thick enough?" Xiaochan asked Shuanglian in a low voice.
"It's okay. There is a charcoal basin in this room, so it won't get very cold. I added some charcoal in the middle of the night, and it won't be cold when I wake up in the morning." Shuang Lian said.
"You need to keep an eye on this tea stove. My father-in-law drinks wine and will ask for tea in the middle of the night. You can't turn it off." Xiaochan added.
"I got it, my little aunt, you're about to catch up with the nagging mothers in our house." Shuanglian smiled and twisted on Xiaochan's face and said, "I have everything, so you can sleep with you.
."
"Then why do you have the nerve to leave sister alone?" Xiaochan said, "Let's switch."
"What's the point? Whoever does a little more will be exhausted." Shuang Lian said openly. She is very good at winning people's hearts. "Just now when I went to the kitchen to deliver bowls, Sister-in-law Wu who was on the stove gave me
I brought a plate of freshly baked snacks. You haven't had dinner yet, right? Just make a bowl of tea with the water on the stove and eat a few snacks. Otherwise, how can you survive such a long night without starving?
ah!"
Hearing what she said, Xiaochan was really grateful.
Shuang Lian rushed to call her sister: "No wonder everyone is friendly with you. They all say that although you have only been in the house for a short time, you learn quickly and are kind to others."
"Okay, sweetie, don't give me the ecstasy soup. Eat it quickly!
After a while, the mothers from the night outside came and asked us a few words. If they see you eating, they will inevitably not talk about you, so don't make yourself uncomfortable." Shuang Lian said and put a plate of snacks on Xiaochan.
In front of her, she poured another bowl of tea.
"Sister, you should also eat two pieces. This is specially given to you. What does it mean if I eat it?" Xiao Chan felt very sorry.
She is just a third-class girl, and she can't usually eat such exquisite snacks.
"Look, why are you being polite to me? Just let me eat what you want. How can we, sisters, share anything with each other?" Shuang Lian said with a sincere expression.
As expected, Xiaochan stopped refusing. She ate a few snacks and drank a bowl of tea, and her stomach was full.
After a while, the mothers who watched the night came and told them to be careful at night.
Shuang Lian and Xiao Chan both agreed and sent these people away before closing the door from the inside.
After a while, Xiaochan yawned several times and said with a smile: "I'm really tired after eating."
"It's been a tiring day, and it's really time to rest. You can go to sleep, I'm not sleepy yet." Shuang Lian said with a smile.
"Then I'll sleep for a while first, and I'll take over for you later in the night." Xiaochan said this and fell asleep quickly.
Shuang Lian looked at her and smiled. The cup of tea she poured for Xiaocha was guaranteed to make her sleep like a dead pig until dawn.
