”I heard you've caught a cold?” With a smile, she moved closer to him. Chu Yuehua smiled until her eyebrows curved, ”You're just a boy, how could you be infected by the cold?” This is hilarious. ”
Glancing at her, Ma Junjie was somewhat angry, but he pursed his lips and didn't say anything. As expected, his personality had always been this way.
During this period of time, he had to report to Chu Yuehua every day, and Chu Yuehua had gradually learned of his temper. In his eyes, Chu Yuehua was a woman, and a woman who didn't like to read books and didn't know how to be righteous and trustworthy.
With the principle of a good man not fighting with a woman, under normal circumstances, when Chu Yuehua mocked him, he would choose to remain silent.
”Hey!” When I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me? ” It just so happened that the more he was like this, the more Chu Yuehua liked to tease him.
She couldn't bear to see an eight or nine year old boy trying to make an old man out of himself.
”There is nothing to say, you are right, I am a boy, and I really have caught a cold.”
”Tch!” Chu Yuehua rolled her eyes at him and said in distress, ”Originally, I heard that you were sick, so I intentionally found a solitaire among the things my father left for me. I wanted to give it to you, but the moment you returned, it turned out to be like this.
”Lone Ben?” What solitaire? Let me take a look! ” When Ma Junjie heard this, he suddenly became interested.
”I'm not happy now. No.”
”You …”
Seeing her like this, Ma Junjie was even more certain that Teacher Kong was right. Only a woman and a vile character were hard to raise.
Seeing that he did not continue, Chu Yuehua lost all interest in him, ”Hey! If you apologize to me, I'll give it to you. ”
Ma Junjie gave her a furtive look, then dusted off his sleeves and sat down by the fire.
He was only eight years old, but he was already so stubborn. If he really did attend high school and went to the capital's investigation courtyard, His Majesty would probably be angered to death by his young age.
Seeing them act this way, Du Ruoruo couldn't help but find it funny. She then took out the book from the inner room and passed it to Ma Junjie with a smile, ”Young Master Ma, this is the book. Miss found it last night and said that you would definitely come today.”
Ma Junjie glanced at Chu Yuehua as if he didn't quite believe Du Ruo's words, so he didn't extend his hand to receive her.
Chu Yuehua simply turned her head away, not looking at him.
”Ma Junjie, you're just a boy. Why are you so unlucky? I really admire you.”
In the end, it was still Chu Yuehua who could not bear it any longer and shook her head as she headed towards the inner room.
He really wasn't suitable for dating a child. Only a child would stubbornly abide by the rules. Of course, he was especially interested in a young boy like Ma Junjie who trusted in his books.
He sat on the bed and was bored out of his mind. Outside, it was snowing again, and Spring Grass was helping Mama Xiao with her needlework. From the window, it looked like a pretty good scene.
”How is she?”
Du Ruoruo followed her line of sight, and lightly shook her head, ”Nothing, it's very quiet. Miss doesn't want her to forget to come forward and do needlework to help out the kitchen when she's free, as if she's purposely avoiding suspicion.”
”So it seems like she's actually being honest?”
Du Ruoruo thought for a moment and nodded: ”It seems so.”
”Alright!” Get me a pen and ink. I'll write a post. ”
”Didn't you say yesterday that La Mei is in the backyard? Write a post inviting people to admire the plum. ”
Right after she finished speaking, Du Ruoruo smiled, ”Miss, you don't have to worry about that! This is a farmhouse, everyone would like me to roast a fire in the house at this time of the year! Who would have the interest to admire a plum? ”
”Why are you talking so much? Just bring it over.”
