C62 (2/2)
”...”
By the time he returned to the estate, it was already nightfall.
Today, Wei Yi had already moved him many times.
Wei Yi was truly the first. The more it was about this, the more he couldn't understand why Wei Yi liked a girl like her.
When it was time for dinner, Wei Yi prepared a serving of Wu Chuan's preferred dishes before placing the chopsticks into Wu Chuan's bowl one after another.
In just a short moment, a tall bowl was piled within Wu Chuan's bowl. Seeing that Wei Yi still hadn't stopped eating, he spoke up to interrupt him. ”Thousand years old, I can't take this anymore.”
After listening to Wu Chuan's explanation, Wei Yi knew that the bowl was already full. He then placed his bowl in front of Wu Chuan and continued picking up the dishes. ”Eat more. After you're done eating, rest early. We've been running around for the entire day.”
Wei Yi had not gone to the imperial court for the past few days, and had instead been surrounding him the entire time. Hence, he was extremely puzzled and asked, ”You haven't gone to the imperial court recently, what's going on?”
”The governor has taken a leave of absence from the emperor. He has thought about living a small life.” Wei Yi said calmly, as if he was talking about something that couldn't be any more normal.
Wu Chuan frowned when he heard this, ”Actually, you don't have to …”
”This Regional Commander has long hated all kinds of people in this imperial court. I still have to thank you. If it wasn't for you, this Regional Commander really wouldn't have had an excuse to leave this place unscathed.” Wei Yi interrupted Wu Chuan as he spoke.
He didn't need to think to know what he wanted to say, he was just afraid that he would affect him.
Eight hundred years ago, Wei Yi had already lost the will to go to court. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to live until today, and not just anyone could survive in this court.
The private struggle was not over.
Wei Yi was still able to accept it at first, but the older he got, the more he didn't want to get involved in these meaningless matters.
Forgotten was rendered speechless by Wei Yi's words.
”Alright, you don't have to worry about him.” Alright, you don't have to worry about him. Wei Yi picked up his chopsticks and lightly knocked on Wu Chuan's head.
Wu Chuan painfully covered his forehead and said, ”That was silly.”
”It's good that you're stupid. If you're too smart, then this Regional Commander really doesn't know how to fool you.”
At the dining table, Wangchuan and Wei Yi occasionally made a scene, bustling with noise and excitement.
The next day.
Since Wu Chuan hadn't practiced for a long time, he got up and went to the bamboo forest. Just as he started to move, he was interrupted by the sound of a girl kneeling on the ground.
”You are?” Wu Chuan kept his sword and stood straight behind him.
Wu Chuan recognized her when she raised her head. She was like the girl who had rescued her from the lake the other day. When he saw her beside Shu Yingxue last time, he opened his mouth and asked, ”Why are you here? Why are you kneeling on the ground? Hurry up and get up. ”
”If it wasn't for the girl last time, this servant would have died in the lake.” Qiu Ju was kneeling on the ground. Although she was being pulled by Wu Chuan, she didn't move the slightest bit …
Wu Chuan never took this kind of thing to heart in the first place. The past was also the past, and now she also didn't understand why she came today to express her gratitude.
”This servant dares to ask Miss Shu to accept me as her servant. When I was following Miss Shu, although I didn't do anything bad for her, I've already disliked many of the girls in the mansion, including the time I fell into the water. Now that Miss Shu has left the Wei Mansion, this servant really has nowhere to go, I'm afraid I'll be chased out in a few days.” As Qiuju spoke, her tears had stopped flowing. As she spoke, she choked with sobs.
He couldn't stand a girl crying, so he helped her up, ”Don't cry, let's talk slowly.”
She sobbed a few times, ”This servant still has a mother who is very ill, and is supported by this servant's monthly allowance. If this servant gets chased out of the house, this servant's mother …” ”Please accept me, this servant knows that thousand years will be the wedding day, even if I have to stay in the mansion as a juggling maid, this servant really cannot be chased out of the mansion …”
Seeing Qiuju's snot and tears, Wenchuan could not bear it.
Although Wu Chuan and Wei Yi were engaged, she was not the actual wife. She might not be able to speak, and since Qiuju was crying like this, the pain in her heart was not easy to bear.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Su He happened to pass by Wu Chuan with a plate of scriptures. Wu Chuan's head grew hot and he called out to him, ”Butler Su.”
Su He originally did not even raise his head. However, when he heard Wu Chuan's shout and saw that it was from Wu Chuan, he walked a few steps closer and asked, ”Miss Wu Chuan, what's the matter?”
”That... I have a presumptuous request. ” Wu Chuan did not know how to explain it, but looking at the beautiful scene, he could not bear it anymore. He closed his eyes, opened them, and asked: ”Is Housekeeper Su in charge of the household's matters?”
Su He was stunned for a moment, then nodded his head, looked at Forgetfulness, then looked at Qiuju, as if he understood something, and said: ”In a few days, after Miss has a thousand years of marriage, I will send some maids to help you, at that time, I will pay attention to her and put her on the list. Now I still have to send the scripture for a thousand years, so I won't accompany Miss any further.” After saying that, he left without looking back.
