Xu Mingyi had caught up on some sleep in the morning and was sitting outside drinking tea. After listening to Zhu Xiu's message, he said this.
Zhu Xiu agreed and let the person in.
When Sui Jiangxing entered the room, he saw a young girl with half-twisted raven hair, only a white jade hairpin on her head, and an autumn-colored wide-sleeved blouse, which was simple and leisurely.
But that's not what Suijiang paid attention to.
What he noticed was that there was a fat bird lying on the girl's lap, and the fat bird was also looking at him.
Their eyes met for a moment, and they greeted each other lukewarmly.
"The master asked his subordinates to bring a message to Miss Xu."
Sui Jiang was always rigorous in his work, and his words were almost word for word. He repeated the "sentence" his young master told him exactly.
Xu Mingyi nodded and said, "Thank you for me, sir."
At this time, Zhu Xiu had already brought the things in.
Xu Mingyi looked over and could vaguely tell that they were probably some supplements.
And since they were sent by him, they must be the best things.
Isn't this a bit too fussy?
Those who knew, of course, knew that she had sprained her foot this time. If it were someone who didn't know, looking at Wu Chao's situation, he might have thought that she had gone in with half her life.
Xu Mingyi subconsciously wanted to decline politely and ask Sui Jiang to take the things back, but then she thought of something and did not say the refusal.
She didn't make any excuses in her heart - she just, simply, didn't want to refuse his intention to send these things in his busy schedule.
Seeing that his girl accepted these things with her acquiescence, and it was now time to prepare dinner, Ah Zhu thought of going to the kitchen to make a cup of soup for her.
The girl's injury is not serious, but after traveling for such a long time, it does need to be patched up.
Seeing that she was obviously going to the kitchen after taking a ginseng plant, Sui Jiang hurriedly said: "I'll go too, I can help."
Ah Zhu glanced at him after hearing this.
She doesn't need help.
But after all, the other person was someone close to Wu Shisun, so she couldn't refuse directly and walked out without comment.
Sui Jiang immediately followed.
Xu Mingyi kept moving his third eye along the hair, thinking about the theaters and storytelling places Wu Chao had mentioned, and unconsciously, a smile appeared in his eyes.
Tianmu raised his head and tilted his neck to glance at her.
Sensing its movements, the girl scratched its neck and said in a pleasant tone: "What are you looking at? You are so fat. You don't look like you have traveled far away..."
Others have to lose weight when they go on a long journey, but it is good for it, and it has become more rounded.
How is she going to explain to Wu Chao?
The third eye "chirped" twice indifferently, and he wanted to commit the crime without repentance - he stretched his head to reach for the snacks on the table.
Xu Mingyi grabbed both wings and threw the bird to the ground.
The big bird chirped dissatisfiedly.
"You can't eat any more!" Xu Mingyi put on a strict motherly attitude.
The big bird jumped and screamed.
Zhu Xiu listened to these movements outside the door and couldn't help but wonder secretly - can humans and birds also quarrel?
In the kitchen, Ah Zhu put the soup can on the small stove to simmer, planning to stir-fry a few simple side dishes.
They spent money to borrow this small kitchen from the shopkeeper so that they could cook something at any time, although they didn't use it much because the food they cooked was not very tasty.
"I'll light the fire." Sui Jiang said positively.
Although he looked down upon these menial jobs at all, and even felt that it lowered his status - but for the sake of the young master's plan, this sacrifice was nothing.
Azhu nodded.
The coolies that come to your door are not wasted.
So one of them lit the fire, and the other chopped vegetables and put them in the pot.
Sui Jiang looked at the dishes prepared by Ah Zhu and asked tentatively: "Does Miss Xu have a simple and light appetite?"
This can be considered one of my hobbies, right?
Ah Zhu replied: "While you are recuperating, you should not eat too much."
Besides, she doesn't know how to do it even if it's complicated.
After all, her specialty is fighting, not cooking.
"What does Miss Xu like to eat on weekdays?" Sui Jiang asked, not forgetting to cover up: "Young Master said that he has been too busy these days and wants me to fulfill my duties as a landlord on his behalf, in terms of food and drink.
The superiors must not treat Miss Xu too lightly."
Azhu didn't know if she believed it or not, so she just said: "My girl is not picky, she likes to eat anything delicious."
Sui Jiang was silent.
It's a completely meaningless answer.
"I wonder what Miss Xu likes most in her daily life?" he asked instead.
Ah Zhu said without hesitation: "Practice your arrows."
"Besides practicing archery?"
This time Azhu thought for a moment before replying: "Besides practicing archery, my girl's favorite thing is to think about how to live longer."
"...?"
Sui Jiang couldn't help but feel confused after hearing this.
What answer is this?
And... like to live longer? - Their son cannot cater to this preference. After all, they can't let their son extend his life to Miss Xu, right?
He now seriously suspected that this maid was deliberately practicing Tai Chi with him.
Haha, he is really very defensive. No wonder the young master wants to give this task to him.
Maybe he was too impatient. This kind of thing must be done gradually.
Sui Jiang put away his chatter for the time being and continued to add fuel to the fire.
Azhu glanced at him.
This person also has too many problems.
If it weren't for the fact that Wu Shisun could really make her girl happy, she wouldn't be too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy who doesn't seem very clever.
When Sui Jiang left, Xu Mingyi asked him to take Tianmu with him.
She thought that Wu Chao probably wouldn't have time to come over these days, and Tianmu had just arrived in Ningyang, so she might as well let Sui Jiang take him back so that the father and son could meet him as soon as possible to relieve the pain of missing each other.
So Tianmu was brought back to Dingnan Palace.
In Wu Chao's courtyard, Ah Yuan pointed to the big bird squatting on a chair and asked in surprise: "This is...the third eye?"
The Third Eye puffed up its chest and shouted - who else could have such majesty except it? It had just been away for a while, but these stupid servants didn't recognize it?
"Didn't Tianmu stay in the capital with Young Master?" A Yuan and Sui Jiang asked: "It... flew back by itself?!"
"Do you think it looks like it?" Sui Jiang asked without answering.
A Yuan took one look at the big bird's chubby body - well, it really didn't look like it.
"Then how did it come back?"
"Brought back by a girl."
"Girl...?!" A Yuan widened his eyes and asked in surprise and excitement: "Which girl is she from? What is her relationship with the young master? Where is she now? Does she look good-looking!"
Sui Jiang glanced at him and said indifferently: "It's related to the young master's plan. I can't reveal too much to you."
"..."
Ah Yuan opened his mouth.
The gossip started from the beginning - what kind of human torture is this?
