overbearing

Bai Tingyu saw his fur furry, but he couldn't hide his concern. Even though he was uncomfortable, he still couldn't help feeling a little happy.Only the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and Zhou Jirong said furiously, "You're still laughing! What a fart laugh! Will it stop the pain if you laugh! Do you have any medicine?"

If he hadn't been concerned that Bai Tingyu was a sick person at this time, he would almost have wanted to come forward and grab Bai Tingyu and shake him violently.

Bai Tingyu had no choice but to suppress his smile, shook his head frankly and said, "No." He looked at Zhou Jirong's angry yet cautious appearance, and felt vaguely amused.Now that it was at this time, he didn't hide anymore, leaned on the edge of the table and slowly bent down, let out a long and tired breath, and wanted to raise his hand to press his stomach, but in a blink of an eye Zhou Jirong Looking at him nervously, he put his hand down again, and comforted him after a pause: "It's really the first time it hurts, and I haven't had it before, so I didn't prepare any medicine, it doesn't matter. , it will pass after a while..."

It's not that Zhou Jirong didn't see his movements, he was angry and uneasy, and his heart was blocked for no reason.He heard Xiaobai's voice lowered a bit, even if he wanted to have an attack, he couldn't bear to make a fuss at this time, so he said with a cold face: "You know it's uncomfortable, but you still go to drink?"

Xiaobai took a deep breath, and smiled softly at him: "I didn't drink much..."

Zhou Jirong always felt uncomfortable seeing him like this, after thinking about it, he finally found something to do, stood up and said: "I'm afraid you didn't finish your dinner, I'm going to see what else is in the kitchen, you can eat something, maybe It's not that hard anymore."

The climate is humid and cold in the north-southwest of Swillong, and the local diet is mostly spicy and salty to drive away the cold.Bai Tingyu was already unwell, except for a few sips of wine during this meal, he didn't eat much. At this time, he was feeling uncomfortable and had no appetite at all. He was about to call Zhou Jirong to stop, but the old man finally found a There was a place where he thought he could help, and there was still a chance for people to talk, so he went out excitedly.

Bai Tingyu sighed secretly. The main hall of this inn is also doing restaurant business, but the style is not high. At night, there are only some dry food such as steamed buns and pancakes.He didn't know what Zhou Jirong would bring, he couldn't bear to take away the other party's kindness, so he had no choice but to eat some whatever Zhou Jirong brought over.

Zhou Jirong went there for a long time, but came back with a bowl of noodles to confess to Xiaobai: "I made it! You have to eat it all!"

Facing Xiaobai's slightly surprised gaze, he was a little guilty, but he still said stubbornly: "The scallions and salt I put in are considered to be made by me! Come and taste it!" He had already made up his mind, if it tastes good , it's because he put chopped green onion and salt well, if it's not tasty, it's naturally because the person who cooks the noodles is poor.

Bai Tingyu obeyed him in every little thing, so naturally she wouldn't argue with him about the reasons for this, so she took it over and thanked him very affectionately, took a sip, and it was surprisingly not bad.

Zhou Jirong kept staring at the change in his expression, and saw that he didn't show any embarrassment, so he was relieved, and sat silently by the side, looking at Bai Tingyu's profile and began to lose his mind.

He has always looked carefree and heartless, but he is not a person who does not know good and bad. He knows who is good to him and who is bad to him, who is sincere and who is false.

Although he was born with a noble status, but he was not born at the right time, and he did not live a stable life for a few days since he was a child.The Xiongnu was afraid of being beaten. It was a matter of the past few years. In the first few years, the Xiongnu haunted Hanzhou, and he also went to support the conquest with everyone. It can be said that most of the year is spent in the wild. inner.

Hanzhou's conditions are like that, even though he is a prince, he really can't be too particular, and although he is young, he is not squeamish, and he knows that the current situation is difficult at that time, and he always eats and lives with others Not much special treatment.But even so, Zhou Jirong was still taken good care of by people. Over the years, apart from his natural physical problem of being prone to colds and fever, he didn't have any problems with rheumatism, cold and pain.

But Zhou Jirong felt sorry for and resented that a person who could take care of others so well for several years, but tossed himself so emaciated and even got sick in just a few months.

Besides, Bai Tingyu didn't mean to torment herself deliberately, I'm afraid it's because of her affection.Even though he didn't say a word, Zhou Jirong could still vaguely understand why he was haggard, the matter was related to himself, and he couldn't even say what he wanted to blame him for not cherishing himself.

In addition to his unreasonable anger, he found with a guilty conscience that seeing Xiaobai like this made him feel more distressed and reluctant. This emotion came abruptly and strongly, and it seemed to be different from brotherhood, but if you say it is It's different there, and he can't quite understand it.

Sitting there, Zhou Jirong seemed to be staring at Xiaobai's thinning side face very intently, but in fact his eyes were blank and he was dazed.

For the first time, he seriously considered his lifelong affairs, and after much deliberation, he still felt that he could not find a little girl who could meet his requirements. All the ladies and daughters he had met all the time were like this. I can't do that well, I don't have much temper and I don't have a small temper, it's really annoying, but they are all self-centered, once they get married, they only think about keeping the man in the square at home, short-sighted and ruthless. Dazhi can't bear the responsibility.Apart from being able to have children, nothing else really stands out.

He turned around and thought about Xiaobai carefully. Although he said that he wanted to find a man to make do with it was a momentary remark, now that he thought about it carefully, Zhou Jirong felt that what he said was true. Looking for a man, there are also those like Xiaobai who are careful and able to take care of others and have ideas. Apart from not being able to give birth to children, they ride horses and fight with him during the day, and warm the bed at night for supper. That can't be better than a woman .

And thinking about it carefully, it's not like he didn't feel nothing about Xiaobai's friendship after so many years of life-and-death friendship, when it comes to love.If he really wanted to find a man, he couldn't help but put Xiao Bai first in his consideration.

As for the heirs, he didn't think there was anything to worry about. His elder brother was in the prime of his life, and he had found so many sister-in-laws for him. In a few years, he might have too many nephews to count. He would bring one or two back to raise him. , to treat the other party as one's own.

He has always been used to making up his own mind, and thinks that this matter is very feasible, but the matter of cutting off his sleeves is no different than others, he can't keep it quiet, and he can't act too hastily, he has to plot slowly.It seems that he has to pay more attention to the matter of brother Yan Su and the owner of Cheng Da Zhuang, and he will mention it to his uncle when he turns back, and use him to try the depth first, which can be regarded as a psychological slowdown for his brother. slow acceptance process.

Zhou Jirong still had a fresh memory of his elder brother taking the opportunity to teach Xiaobai a lesson. Even if he wanted to move now, he didn't plan to bring Xiaobai in until he was completely sure. Instead, he should keep a distance from Xiaobai now. , and don't get too close to others, so even if his brother wants to make an example of someone else's bad luck, he still has to find a partner.

On the other hand, he cleans himself up so that his brother can't handle it, and at the same time pesters him endlessly to make his brother promise not to force him to marry a woman, and he will confess to Xiaobai after the matter is completed.

As for whether his brother would throw the table in a rage, Zhou Jirong didn't think about it for the time being. Anyway, it won't happen in a while, and he still needs time to slowly determine his mood, so there is no need to call Xiao Xiao now. Bai knows.

He is also exceptionally calm, with such a terrifying idea in his heart, he can be clueless on the surface before he is sure, but after he has made up his mind, he appears a lot more stable.

Seeing that Xiaobai had finished eating the noodles, he hurriedly reached out to take the bowl, and was about to push the person back to the bed to lie down, and at the same time took the quilt to wrap him tightly.

Bai Tingyu was stared at by him for a while, and he became flustered and confused.He didn't have much appetite in the first place, but Zhou Jirong claimed that he made this noodle with his own hands—even if it was just chopped green onion and salt, it was rare.On the one hand, he was flattered, but on the other hand, he was reluctant to go against his good intentions.

But sleeping after eating like this was really uncomfortable, he could only hold Zhou Jirong's hand, and said with a wry smile: "I'm not a cold, so it's useless to surround me with a quilt like this."

Zhou Jirong thought so, so he didn't force him to lie down again, looked at him for a while, felt that his complexion seemed to have improved, and said: "Are you feeling better?"

Bai Tingyu told him before that it would be good to endure it for a while, but she was not lying to him. After enduring the most painful period, now the feeling has gradually eased a lot, so she nodded.

Zhou Jirong wanted to say something, but hesitated for a while, and finally said: "...Then you should rest earlier."

As soon as he turned around and took the bowl, he seemed to be leaving.Bai Tingyu blurted out: "Young Master, don't go."

It was rare for him to be weak for a moment, and he blurted out these words as if he hadn't thought about it, and even he himself was shocked when he said it.

Zhou Jirong paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at him, with a calm expression on his face.He is always expressive when he is happy or angry, such a calm and watery expression is rare, but it makes people unable to see his emotions.

Bai Tingyu had already spoken, and there was no room for manoeuvre, so he could only continue in a very natural tone: "...this subordinate was in the restaurant with Qian Boss today, and met some people who usually have business dealings with Qian Boss The merchants, I heard some rumors from them about these invitations from Lord Yasukuni..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Jirong interrupted him by raising his hand.

Zhou Jirong frowned and said, "I'll discuss these matters with brother Yan Huan tomorrow, I don't want to hear this now..."

Bai Tingyu was already embarrassed, but when he blocked her, she suddenly became embarrassed.

Although Zhou Jirong said he didn't want to hear it, he was not in a hurry to leave. Seeing his uneasy expression, he sighed and said, "If you don't feel uncomfortable anymore, you should go to bed earlier, and you have to think so much after drinking, don't you have a headache?" Does it hurt?" He thought for a while and then said: "If you are still not feeling well, you really can't fall asleep, and you want me to sit with you, just say it, why bother to find messy reasons and treat me as an outsider?"

Zhou Jirong talked about others like this, but he himself did not treat himself as an outsider, so he sat down on the edge of the bed.
