032 Summer Country(1/2)
When invited to the dinner, Shui Qiancheng barely glanced at Lu Fusu. Except for occasionally answering Shui Xinyuan's questions, he always ate in silence.
After nightfall, Shui Qiancheng was allowed to stay in Chunying Palace for one night.
Shui Xinyuan came to Shui Qiancheng and gave him a brand new jacket.
"I made this for you before. It doesn't matter if you wear old clothes, but you have to dress appropriately when you go out, so I made you a new dress..."
"Did you make it yourself?"
"certainly."
"...Thank you, sister."
Shui Xinyuan smiled sweetly, and Shui Qiancheng felt that he could finally chat with his sister alone.
During the day, we only talked about things in Qidu Town and what happened on the way here.
During the meal, my sister’s husband actually came.
Now I can finally chat with my sister and tell her how sad he was when his beloved sister left home four years ago, and how happy he was when he received her letter.
And secretly made up his mind to one day go to the capital where his sister lives and live with her.
In order to meet my sister, I must go to a private school in the capital...
"Good night then!"
"ah?"
Seeing Shui Xinyuan preparing to leave, Shui Qiancheng's eyes widened and he jumped off the bed.
"W-where are you going?"
"I'm not going anywhere! I'm going to sleep too..."
"Aren't you going to sleep here?"
"ah?"
"We haven't seen each other for so long, let's sleep together today!"
Shui Xinyuan showed a surprised expression and then laughed.
"What? Don't you dare to sleep alone?"
"certainly not……"
"Qian Cheng, you are already thirteen years old and you are going to stay at someone else's house tomorrow. How can you be so coquettish?"
"so……"
...I just want to chat with my sister more without that person...
He wanted to tell his sister this, but Shui Xinyuan shook his head.
"No, I have my own room... Logically speaking, outsiders are not allowed to live in Chunying Palace. The emperor specially arranged it for you, so just sleep well!"
Here we go again, mentioning that man again.
When he mentioned that man and was with that man, his sister was not the sister he knew. Her words became very mature and she felt as if she had become an outsider.
"Qian Cheng, good night."
"Good night……"
Shui Xinyuan didn't notice the reason for Shui Qiancheng's stiff expression and returned to his dormitory.
Lu Fusu was sitting on the dragon bed, reading under the candle. When he saw Shui Xinyuan, he immediately closed the book.
"Is it okay if you come back so soon?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Aren't you going to accompany your brother today?"
Shui Xinyuan smiled and put down her randomly tied hair.
"He is no longer old enough to dare to sleep alone..."
"That's right! But I thought you guys had a lot to talk about. I thought you wouldn't be back today. No, of course I'm happy to see you back..."
"..."
Shui Xinyuan walked quietly to Lu Fusu and sat down next to him.
"Qian Cheng has been very close to me since he was a child. He may want to act like a spoiled child to me like he did at home... But this is the capital and he is here to study. He cannot be the same as he was at home."
"You are so strict."
"My parents also said so in the letter, asking me to take care of him in the best way..."
Lu Fusu placed the closed book on the table next to him and grabbed Shui Xinyuan's hand.
"Did your parents say not to spoil your husband too much?"
"What?"
"Did you say that if you let your husband be too willful, he may feel jealous when he sees you touching your brother's head in the future, so you can't spoil your husband... I guess your parents will remind you this."
"..."
Shui Xinyuan opened his eyes wide and looked back at Lu Fusu.
"Can't I touch my brother's head?"
"No, it's not impossible..."
"Not anymore, I won't touch his head again."
"...Shui Xinyuan, I'm joking with you."
"Ah, does the emperor also want to be touched by me?"
"ah……?"
Lu Fusu smiled and bent over. Shui Xinyuan blinked several times and looked at his face.
"Uh, then..."
"I'm not that childish... Would you like to touch my head?"
"Huh? Ah, then..."
...It's over...I said something stupid again...
Shui Xinyuan wanted to jump off the dragon bed and escape, but Lu Fusu, who was still laughing, caught her and put his arms around her waist.
"Where are you going? Are you looking for your brother now?"
"No...I won't go..."
"That's right! If you go to your brother with this expression, I might get beaten by him."
"Why?"
What kind of expression would he show that would make Lu Fusu get beaten?
Lu Fusu smiled and asked Shui Xinyuan to face him.
"It doesn't matter if you don't touch my head. As long as when you write home, don't complain that your husband is more willful than your brother, which will make you worry."
"I wouldn't write like that...how could the emperor be willful..."
"Um?"
Shui Xinyuan leaned his forehead on Lu Fusu's shoulder and said softly: "The willful...is...me."
Although she loved Shui Qiancheng very much, she couldn't help but come back to Lu Fusu's room.
After that day, no princes or nobles came to her to ask for the restoration of the harem, so she did not mention it to Lu Fusu.
...I also hope to be able to stay with Lu Fusu forever...
Although Qing'er told her before that she could be more willful, but how else could she be willful?
"Shui Xinyuan..."
I just hope to be in Lu Fusu's arms forever.
Lu Fusu hugged Shui Xinyuan with both hands and blew out the candle.
…
I’m going to trouble you about my brother…
Zhuge Qing finished reading Shui Xinyuan's letter and looked at the nervous young man standing in front of him.
The boy's big eyes are very similar to Shui Xinyuan's, but his tight lips make him look very stubborn and stubborn...
Having said that, although the queen looks weak on the outside, she is actually very strong on the inside.
"The queen specially asked me to take good care of you. You must study hard and don't let your sister worry."
"Queen..."
To be continued...
