MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 26 scheming (one more)
Chapter 26 Scheming (one more)
The Maple Leaf River is breezy, cool and comfortable, and the scenery on both sides of the river is beautiful. Although it is not the most suitable season for viewing the scenery, it also has a special flavor.
After Su Rong didn't speak, Zhou Gu looked at the scenery outside, but thought in his heart, if he didn't marry her and had to divorce her, would his grandfather really drive him out of the house? If he insists on not marrying her, he must be able to divorce her, right? But what will she do after the divorce? She said don't delay each other's good time, so who will she marry?
His hand clasped the jade pendant around his waist, feeling a little irritable in his heart, secretly cursing himself as worthless, it's only been a day. No, it was less than a day, only half a day, and she led her away by the nose.
Sure enough, all women are quite scheming.
Su Rong naturally didn't know what Zhou Gu was thinking. She had swum the Maple Leaf River thousands of times, and she was tired of it. So, after not speaking, she fell asleep comfortably.
After Zhou Gu calmed down his disturbed mood, he turned around and saw her eyes closed, sleeping on the soft pillow. With a small face, sleeping peacefully, he was stunned for a while, then smiled angrily.
With such a big heart, he has opened his eyes.
He asked Yue Wan in a low voice, "Didn't your lady say that she doesn't have the habit of taking a nap?"
Yue Wan had already secretly yawned several times, and at this time she was also confused. Hearing this, she tried her best to open her eyes wide and looked at Zhou Gu, muttering sleepily, "Miss lied to you. She has been detained by the madam in the mansion for more than half a month. Today, she is finally able to accompany you out for a walk. Naturally, she doesn't want to stay in the mansion for a moment, so why don't you just say she won't take a nap?"
Zhou Gu: "..."
After Yue Wan finished speaking, Ji Ling woke up suddenly, his sleepiness disappeared, and he looked at Zhou Gu with an expression of "I'm finished".
Zi Ye gave a thumbs up to Yue Wan, "You are good at cheating your master, you are better than me."
Moon bend: "..."
She had a bitter face and was about to cry. She wanted to make amends, so she begged Zhou Gu, "Master, you, can you pretend you didn't hear?"
Zhou Gu was speechless, "Do all the people in your prefect's mansion lie?"
Yuewan can answer this question, and immediately said: "No."
"Prefect Su and Mrs. Su, they forced me to stay in the prefect's mansion as soon as they sang together. Your young lady tricked me into coming out early, and used me to deal with people who have trouble with her." Zhou Gu was originally smart, and now he has come to think about it, "Does this son look like a fool?"
Yue Wan didn't understand these things, she only knew that she was stupid, so she said: "What you said, the servants don't understand."
Zhou Gu snorted and let her go, "Go to bed too!"
Yue Wan seemed to be pardoned, she tilted her head, and closed her eyes. She has one great advantage, that is, she is obedient, if you let her sleep, she will sleep. She was so sleepy that she burst into tears, woo woo woo, she must take a nap every day.
Zhou Gu couldn't describe it in words. This master and servant is really good.
Zi Ye approached, approached Zhou Gu, and whispered, "My lord, let's go back today, do we still live in the eunuch's mansion?"
"Stay here." Zhou Gu squeezed his brow bone with his thumb and index finger, "Prefect Su must have sent someone to find Zhou Xi, withdraw that yard, and move me to the prefect's mansion. Zhou Xi belongs to grandfather, he can't wait for it."
Ziye probed, "Then you..."
He wanted to ask, you planned to come to Jiangning earlier, and then let the Su family voluntarily withdraw the engagement. But now that everyone is living in the prefect's mansion, the marriage...is it still going to be refunded?
Zhou Gu put down his hand and glanced at him.
Zi Ye immediately shut up. He shouldn't ask, it's only one day, it's still very early, and it's nothing to live in the prefect's mansion, the young master has his own ideas, so he doesn't need to worry about it.
He looked at Su Rong again, hey, Ms. Su is very good-looking, and she seems to have a good temper, she is different from the noble ladies in Beijing, and he can't describe the specific difference. In short, there has never been any woman who has been able to chat with the young master like a gossip, and of course, there is no woman who said that she fell asleep while accompanying the young master on a boat, and she slept soundly.
Although Su Rong fell asleep, she didn't sleep well, so she heard Zhou Gu and Yue Wan's words clearly.
She thought, Zhou Gu is very smart, in such a short time, she can see that his parents deliberately forced him to stay. He is so smart and didn't turn his face, does it mean that he is not so resistant to this marriage?
Just don't resist!
Su Rong fell asleep soundly.
Zhou Gu enjoyed the scenery for half an hour, and saw the boatman stop the boat and start fishing. He was so curious, so he went out of the cabin to have a look.
Zi Ye was also curious, and walked out together.
The boatman puts bait in the fish cage, throws it into the water, and waits patiently for the fish cage.
Consultant Zhou: "How long will you wait like this? Will the fish enter the cage?"
"Half an hour!"
"It's been so long." Zhou Guxin wanted to eat fish once, but it was really not easy.
The boatman laughed, "I don't have the skill of Miss Seven. If Miss Seven does it herself, it won't take long to make a bucket of fish."
Zhou Gu was taken aback, "You mean her?"
He turned his head and glanced into the cabin in disbelief.
"Yes, it's Miss Seven." The boatman praised, "Miss Seven doesn't use my stupid methods. She catches fish with bamboo poles, and she is precise and fast. Every fish that swims past her eyes will not be missed by her. I can't do it. I'm old, my eyes are blurry, my technique is inaccurate, and my efforts are in vain."
Zhou Gu thought about Su Rong's thin arms and legs, fishing with a bamboo pole? It's hard to imagine, he stayed with the boatman for a while, then suddenly turned around and entered the cabin, seeing that Su Rong was still sleeping soundly, he stretched out a finger and poked her shoulder, "Hey, wake up!"
"I don't call you hello." Su Rong didn't open her eyes.
"Su Rong, wake up." Zhou Gu paused and called her name awkwardly.
Su Rong woke up and looked at him, "What's the matter, Zhou Gu? Are you bored watching the scenery alone? Let me talk with you?"
"No." Seeing her pink face, Zhou Gu moved his eyes away and looked out of the cabin, "The boatman said you can catch fish quickly and accurately, I want to see."
Su Rong woke up suddenly, "The boatman said?"
"Um."
Su Rong was silent, thinking that her mother was wrong. She was born and bred in Jiangning, and wandered outside the house all year round.
She pressed her brows, raised her shield, and whispered, "Mother said, this is not something a lady should do."
Zhou Gu looked at her, "You did it anyway, didn't you?"
Su Rong coughed and stood up, "Alright then!"
Happy holidays, babes, okay, okay, I won’t go out to play, I will code at home during the holiday, and there will be an update today!
