Xu Shiqiu didn't have any intention to conceal his intentions at all. Looking at Xu Yanzhu's eyes, he fiercely wanted to force her to reject his Young Girl's suggestion to invite her to eat at his Shihuan Courtyard.
If it was before, Xu Yanzhu might really be afraid of Third Uncle refusing, but after half a day of interaction, Xu Yanzhu clearly discovered one thing.
Her Third Uncle who used to be taciturn and treat everyone coldly, and wished that he could leave home and live by himself, was now filled with desire to become her Third Aunt!
As long as she coaxed Third Aunt well, as long as he liked her, no matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do about it.
After Xu Yanzhu understood this point, she immediately ignored the Third Uncle's threatening gaze and looked at Dong Shu: ”Since Third Aunt is inviting me, I naturally have to go and have a taste of your cooking skills.” After saying this, Xu Yanzhu tried her best to ignore the part where he seemed to want to 'kill' her, and spoke with slight apprehension: ”I just don't know if Third Uncle is happy to welcome me.”
Xu Yanzhu looked at Dong Shu who had just finished saying these words., who had heard her, immediately turned and looked at her husband in anticipation.
”Husband, can I invite Yanzhu to our Shihuan Courtyard as a guest?”
Dong Shu asked carefully. At this time, she also realized that something was not right.
Her husband looked at his eldest niece with a scary gaze.
Xu Shiqiu didn't think that his desire to force Xu Yanzhu to retreat would cause the Young Girl to become more cautious. He looked at Xu Yanzhu and gave a heavy and cold snort. My wife, you are also the owner of the Shihuan Courtyard, so it is naturally okay if you want to invite others to be your guest. ”
Xu Shiqiu emphasized the word ”other”. Evidently, the ”other” he was referring to was the Xu Yanzhu he thought had no eyes for.
But Xu Yanzhu did not care about what she understood, and Dong Shu did not understand what she cared about.
Not only that, Xu Yanzhu looked at the back of Third Aunt who was following his own Third Uncle and said with a loud voice, ”Third Aunt, I will definitely come and find you tomorrow.” Speak.
Hearing his first niece's words, Xu Shiqiu's entire body felt sour.
He knew that since his Young Girl was so good, someone else would definitely like her.
However, he also did not expect that not only did his first niece like the Young Girl, she even dared to ignore his gaze.
Just like this, although Xu Shiqiu successfully brought Dong Shu back, on the way back, his entire body emitted a sour smell.
However, he couldn't say these words out loud.
After all, in the beginning, it was he who took the initiative to have his first niece accompany Young Girl.
Xu Shiqiu felt like he had been smashed in the foot by a rock, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
It wasn't until the two of them walked back to Shihuan Courtyard's entrance that he remembered what he had done that morning.
”My wife.” Xu Shiqiu called out to Dong Shu softly. Seeing that she had stopped and looked at him in confusion, he tried his best to suppress the smile on his face and continued: ”My wife, close your eyes. I'll bring you in to see a good thing.”
Xu Shiqiu did not say why he wanted Dong Shu to do this, but Dong Shu believed in him. She waited for Xu Shiqiu to finish speaking before he closed his eyes and gave everything to Xu Shiqiu.
Xu Shiqiu looked at his family's obedient Young Girl and felt his heart go soft. Raising his arm, he grabbed Dong Shu's hand that was by his side, and then carefully brought her into the courtyard.
Dong Shu didn't know what her master wanted to do, because she obediently closed her eyes and could only obediently follow him.
When she realized that they had probably walked to the backyard of the Shihuan Courtyard, she suddenly remembered that her husband seemed to have a proud tone in his voice.
”My wife, you can open your eyes now.”
Hearing that voice, Dong Shu immediately opened her originally closed eyes.
Perhaps because she had closed her eyes too tightly just now and had just opened them, Dong Shu felt that something was wrong with her eyes. Only after she quickly blinked a few times did she manage to clearly see the scene before her eyes.
The space between the Shihuan Courtyard Inner Court and Outer Academy was originally a small garden. Only yesterday, Dong Shu told Xu Shiqiu that she was bored and wanted to raise a few chickens.
Originally, Dong Shu thought that it would be at least the middle of the next month until the chicks were hatched and delivered to her. However, she didn't expect that when she opened her eyes, she would see several tens of yellow fluffy chicks happily running around on a 2 metre square open space.
In addition to the dozens of chicks, there were also two flower hens guarding them in the open space that was separated from the bamboo pieces.
After clearly seeing everything in front of her eyes, Dong Shu immediately turned around in delight and pulled Xu Shiqiu's arm as she shook it, ”Hubby, you really caught a chicken cub and a hen and brought them back to me to be reared. Husband, you are so good! ” After saying that, Dong Shu turned to look at the few chicks again, feeling that they were the most beautiful chicks in the world.
