Chapter 4: please be safe
"Huh?" Bai Chu pretended not to know, "Why are you being rude?"
The line of Lan Chuan's lips tightened into a straight line, and his face became even colder.
Bai Chu smiled and said, "Okay, if you really feel disrespectful to me, please introduce me to Mo Tangxuan, and the right should be punished."
This stumped him. Lan Chuan knew that he had a dull temper and was not good at words. If he hadn't been helpless to his master, he would have been silent for a day.
Looking down to avoid Bai Chu's gaze, Lan Chuan could only dryly tell her that this place is the main hall in Mo Tang Xuan, that place is the study room, and then there is the garden... The originally dull and low voice became more and more dull. , Bai Chu looked at his expressionless face with a thin layer of sweat oozing out with a smile, and finally expressed kindness: "Didn't you say there is a garden? When the flowers bloom in early spring, take me there. "
Lan Chuan let out an inaudible sigh, his dark eyes met her smiling eyes, and unknowingly avoided him: "...this way please."
The voices were muted.
Bai Chu chuckled lightly, and stopped teasing him. He concentrated on admiring the scenery in the yard. After all, it was the third young master, which was much more delicate and exquisite than the original owner's temporary house.
After the two of them walked around, they heard Jiang Chen say that Shen Yuzhi woke up.
He also said that when the third young master woke up and heard that the young lady was taking care of him, he ordered Lan Jiang to thank her, but only said that he was unwell and that it was inconvenient to see her, so let her go back to rest first.
Bai Chu listened calmly and calmly: "Since the third young master is inconvenient, I will not disturb you, you go back to him, wait a bit, and write to the old lady and the eldest princess tomorrow to greet him, he has no news. For a few days, the elders in the family were very worried."
As soon as he finished speaking, no matter what his reaction was, he turned to Lanchuan and said with a smile: "Lanchuan, can you please send me back?"
Lan Chuan nodded silently, turned slightly to his side, and let her go.
…
"She's back?" Shen Yuzhi's body hasn't passed away, the pain in his brain is so intense, his complexion is as pale as paper, but it doesn't affect his demeanor. Some of the sick and weak son's coldness is just red on the right cheek. The piece looks a little awkward.
Lan He glanced at it, and tentatively gave Lan Jiang a wink: What's going on? Where is the third young master knocking?
Lan Jiang's face did not change, "Yes, just now Lan Chuan has sent the three young ladies away."
"Lanchuan?" Shen Yu paused and sighed, "That's fine."
Third Young Master Shen has always been courteous and courteous. Even though he was a little angry at Bai Chuhua for the marriage, he still knew rationally that this was not something she, a weak woman, could resist.
So I don't want to see her, but I don't treat her deliberately.
Lan Jiang glanced at the complicated expression of the master, and added softly: "The young lady also asked the servant to send you a message."
"What?"
"The young lady said that you will be away for a few days, the eldest princess and other elders are worried and remembered. When you feel better, you should go and say hello now."
Shen Yu was stunned for a moment. He grew up smoothly since he was a child, and was coddled and humbled by his parents and brothers. Even though he was a little self-willed this time, he also felt a little guilt in his heart for worrying about his family.
"Also, Lan Jiang, you clean up for me, and I'll go and greet my grandmother and father and mother."
Lanhe said hesitantly: "Third young master, seeing that it is getting late, I am afraid that the old lady has already rested. Why don't you go back tomorrow morning?"
Shen Yuzhi didn't know that Lan He glanced at him because of the sudden red bumps on his face. He thought it was because he was in a state of embarrassment because of a hangover. He was afraid that the elders would be worried when they saw him, so he nodded, "Just follow you. Do as you say."
Lanjiang Lanhe breathed a sigh of relief in unison. After serving Shen Yu, he walked to the door. Seeing Lanxi guarding aimlessly outside, Lanjiang couldn't help frowning and asked, "Is Lanchuan back yet? ?"
Lanxi said helplessly, "It's already night, and I can't even see a single person."
Lanhe didn't think so: "That kid has always been withdrawn, so maybe he sneaked out to practice again. Besides, based on his martial arts, how could the young lady fail him?"
Lan Jiang thought about it as well: "Besides, today, the young lady is not too stubborn and tough, so we don't have to worry too much. If we haven't seen Lanchuan come back tomorrow, just tell the third young master."
Both of them wanted to leave, but Lanxi was still a little worried and didn't say anything, and silently retreated with the two brothers.
…
Early the next morning, Shen Yuzhi was neatly groomed, put on a brocade robe embroidered with dark silver and bamboo patterns in royal blue, and tied his hair with a suet jade crown inlaid with emerald eyes.
Early in the morning, he went to the nearby Chu Yu Pavilion, which is the residence of the eldest princess, and when the servant said that the eldest princess went to the old lady's Hexiang Courtyard, he turned around.
When the little girl who led the way opened the curtain, the scene that caught his eye made him unconsciously startled.
The old lady of the Shen family was over sixty years old. She was in high spirits and had a kind face. Sitting beside her were the eldest princess and Bai Chu.
When Shen Yuzhi entered the door, the old lady was holding Bai Chu's hand happily and enthusiastically, and told her interesting things about Shen Yuzhi when she was a child. The cicada was caught, and in the end, the scandal that was frightened by the flying cicadas hanging on the tree and crying was not shy of speaking out.
Shen Yuzhi had just finished talking about this when he came, and everyone was having a good time. As soon as the curtains were lifted, what fell in his eyes was the happy atmosphere.
!
He was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were subconsciously attracted to Bai Chu, who was sitting beside his grandmother with a dazzling smile.
In a trance, I recalled the dim figure in my memory. Shen Yuzhi was known as a super-smart person since childhood. Bai Chuhua shyly avoided him every time he saw him. He naturally knew the infinite admiration in his eyes.
It's just that his fiancée is Bai Yinhua, and what he really likes is also Bai Yinhua. Shen Yuzhi didn't want to make extra troubles, so he just did not know, and then he started to avoid Bai Chuhua consciously.
Fortunately, she was introverted and shy, and never loved to associate with others. Shen Yuzhi's actions did not attract the attention of others.
Who would have thought that God suddenly gave him a bad relationship, but he couldn't hide it.
Noticing that Shen Yuzhi's eyes were getting more and more complicated, Bai Chu turned his head slightly, met his gaze, and showed a calm and soft smile.
The old lady also saw him, and waved to him with a smile: "Yuzhi, come here."
Shen Yuzhi bowed his head to say hello: "Yuzhi greets grandmother and mother, it's my unfilial piety, which has caused you to worry about me, please don't blame grandma."
"It's you who did it wrong." The old lady frowned slightly, although there was a bit of blame in her tone, but more of a kindness that could not be concealed, "Come, come here."
When she brought her grandson to her side, the old lady happily took his hand. Seeing that she turned around and came to hold Bai Chu's hand again, the lines around Shen Yuzhi's mouth were already tight, because of her grandmother, Didn't say anything.
However, Bai Chu took the first step to hold her outstretched hand in his palm, and smiled softly: "Husband just came back yesterday, and his face is still pale now, grandmother, why don't you ask a doctor to check his pulse first?"
"Yes," the old lady said suddenly, looking at Shen Yuzhi's complexion worriedly, "I forgot all this joy, hurry up, go and ask the doctor to take a look at the third young master." She smiled at Bai Chu with relief, "You still have a heart."
He turned his head and said to Shen Yuzhi: "Look, how much does your daughter-in-law miss you? Yuzhi, it can't be like this in the future, the young couple is sweet and mellow, and my old wife is also happy to see it. ."
Shen Yuzhi couldn't bear to go against the expectations of the old lady, and the eldest princess was beside her to echo, so she could only agree repeatedly.
When the doctor came to check his pulse, he only said that it was a headache caused by excessive drinking, as well as loss of appetite, fatigue, etc. The old lady who listened was so distressed that he taught him a lesson, "I will be unhappy in the future. Even if you lose your temper and throw things, you can't hurt yourself anymore."
Bai Chu sat beside her, listening to the old lady ramble about Shen Yuzhi's words with a gentle and decent smile, the feeling of interest gradually spread in her heart, she lowered her eyes, and boredly began to play with Su embroidery on the cuffs.
Suddenly, there were loud noises from outside: "Grandma, grandma! Is the third uncle back!"
Bai Chu raised his eyes and looked over, the cheerful and childish voice of a child moved from far to near, and a small figure flexibly drilled out from the curtain at the door, showing a little boy carved in pink and jade, with big eyes and black grapes. It seems that there is a rare spiritual energy in it, wearing a small red robe, with two braids tied on the top of the head, swaying, lively and naughty.
The smile on the old lady's face deepened: "Hao'er is here?"
This is Shen Yuzhi's eldest brother, Shen Jingzhi's eldest son, named Shen Yuanhao, who is also the only child in this generation. His biological mother died of dystocia. The whole Shen family dotes on this child very much.
But if you want to say who the little guy likes to get close to the most among the elders, it has to be the third uncle Shen Yuzhi. My father had never seen each other for many years, and his face was serious and indifferent. The second uncle was kind and kind, but Shen Yuanhao, with his astute intuition like a small animal, always felt that although the second uncle was smiling, it would be miserable to offend him.
That is the third uncle. Not only does he often spend time playing with him, but when he goes out, he always thinks about coming back to bring him some fun and delicious food. In Shen Yuanhao's mind, who was found psychologically shadowed by his grandfather and his masters, the third uncle represents all. Easy time and fun.
"Hao'er greets grandmother, grandmother, third uncle." The six-year-old child finished the ceremony politely and respectfully, and then his true form was revealed, like a small cannonball, and hurried away In Shen Yuzhi's arms, "Third uncle, where have you been? Did you return a gift for Hao'er?"
Shen Yuzhi's face was soft, and he skillfully picked up the little guy who had just reached his knees: "Hao'er has grown taller again? In this way, tell the third uncle what you like, and see if the gift that the third uncle picked is yours. Is your favorite good?"
This is how to lie to a child. Waiting for him to say what he wants, he turns his head and tells the servant to go out to buy it, and it doesn't take an hour.
Shen Yuanhao completely bought it, and his eyes widened with joy and excitement: "Really?"
The eldest princess over there looked at the close uncle and nephew, and coughed lightly: "Hao'er, did you forget to say hello to your third aunt?"
The old lady smiled and said, "This child is so happy to see Yuzhi. Come, Hao'er is here with grandma."
Shen Yuanhao was put down by Shen Yuzhi reluctantly, and walked slowly to the old lady. He didn't like this third aunt who appeared out of thin air. It was because of her that the third uncle was away from home for several days. of.
The third uncle doesn't like her, and Hao'er doesn't like her either.
"This is Hao'er?" Bai Chu bent down and looked at his line of sight, looking at the child's tender and bulging face with a smile. So much cuter than I thought?"
Shen Yuanhao's little face turned red with a "bang", he ran to Shen Yuzhi's side and hugged Shen Yuzhi tightly, as if he was looking for support, his big watery eyes turned and thought it was "ruthless" Glancing at her.
Bai Chu couldn't help but laugh, the old lady smiled and said, "This child is shy."
