"I, I went to bed, it was too dark to see." Shen Yu explained stammeringly.
Because just now she felt herself pressing on Xie Tingzhou's body, but she didn't know where exactly.
There was a rustling sound in the darkness.
Xie Tingzhou stood up from the bed and said in a cold voice, "Go in."
Shen Yu hurriedly climbed onto the bed and lay down with her clothes on. She recalled the feeling just now in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
Although her feeling was a little blurry through the quilt, she was sure that what she pressed before was not Xie Tingzhou's chest.
Where could that be?
She didn't sleep well last night, and now she couldn't suppress her sleepiness and fatigue. Shen Yu fell asleep after thinking about it.
Xie Tingzhou was woken up by the loud voice of the woman outside.
He didn't know why, but he slept very well these past two nights. He hadn't had such a solid sleep in a long time.
Shen Yu was sitting at the table with her back to the bed. She put one arm on the table and was doing something unknown. From time to time, she could hear a gentle intake of breath.
"What are you doing?" Xie Tingzhou stood up and asked.
Shen Yu suddenly turned around and looked at him like a frightened deer. Her eyes were watery, like a clear spring filled with water, and she had a fragile look.
Xie Tingzhou's heart suddenly trembled inexplicably. Before he had time to explore what that strange feeling was, Shigure had already turned his head quickly.
Xie Tingzhou put on his robe and walked over, finally seeing what she was doing.
Several wounds were spread ferociously on his arms. Judging from the wounds, they should have been caused by wild beasts.
"Did you encounter a wild beast on the road yesterday?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
The powder was sprinkled on the wound, and Shen Yu was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.
In the past, she moaned in pain when she was injured, and she could act coquettishly with her father and brother. After her father and brother left in her previous life, she learned to grit her teeth and endure it no matter how hard it was.
After waiting for a while, Shen Yu said, "It's a leopard. I wouldn't have been injured originally, but I squatted on it for too long, and the cold weather made my reaction a little slower, but I finally killed it."
"You went hunting?"
Shen Yu was so painful that she blew gently on the wound several times, "I asked Grandpa yesterday that there are ferocious beasts on the mountain. I was lucky today. The leopard skin is valuable, otherwise I wouldn't be able to exchange it for so much money."
Xie Tingzhou looked at the clothes on his body and didn't know how he felt.
His lips were slightly parted, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the woman outside the door suddenly ask a question while chatting.
"Uncle Zheng, I heard from the Zhao Shun family that there are guests at your house?"
The two stopped moving at the same time and looked at each other in understanding.
Shen Yu had already ducked over and took out the knife hidden under the bed board.
Xie Tingzhou held his shoulders, shook his head at him, looked sideways at the door, and heard the father-in-law outside say:
"It's a distant relative of mine who came over to visit me during the Chinese New Year."
They both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Xie Tingzhou glanced at the knife in Shigure's hand and said quietly: "Did you just want to silence me?"
"How is that possible?" Shen Yu looked at him inexplicably, "I'm planning to run away."
"Then what are you doing with the knife?"
Shen Yu touched the knife lovingly, "It would be a pity to lose such a good knife."
I'm almost drowning in the water and I don't want to throw it away, let alone leave it here.
Outside the house, the woman was holding a handful of pumpkin seeds, cracking them, and peering inside.
"You call me out and identify yourself. Zhao Shun's family passed by your house yesterday and went back to read it for a day. She said that a relative of yours was so handsome. She had never seen anyone so handsome in her life. He was so handsome at that time. I can’t even walk.”
Uncle Zheng declined with a smile, "They are living in poverty, and they haven't gotten up yet."
The woman leaned on the bamboo frame and said, "I'm just curious about what it looks like to make people unable to walk. The Zhao Shun family said it looks like the Bodhisattva in that temple."
Shen Yu thought of the square-headed and broad-eared appearance of the Bodhisattva in the temple, and then looked at Xie Tingzhou's handsome face, but she really couldn't connect the two.
Xie Tingzhou noticed that Shi Yu wanted to smile, so he gave him a warning look, lifted up his clothes and sat down next to him.
"hand."
Shen Yu saw that he wanted to bandage her wound, so she didn't refuse. She put her arm on the table and handed him the gauze.
The bones in his hands were clear and the fingers were long and slender, as if they had been carefully carved. He worked slowly and slowly, and the gauze in his hands seemed to be no longer gauze, but turned into high-quality gauze worth a hundred gold.
The coarse linen clothes couldn't cover up the noble aura on his body.
Shen Yu looked at it and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, the ones raised by the prince's family were different.
Two words: rich!
Looking at herself again, she was raised with pearls and jade by the richest family of the Lu family in Hezhou, but now she looks like a beggar.
After the bandaging was completed, the chat outside had not ended yet. The woman seemed not to be ready to leave and kept talking.
"Is your nephew married?"
"How many people are there in the family? How many acres of land are there?"
Uncle Zheng was annoyed by her questions, but he still dealt with it patiently.
The people outside didn't leave. Shen Yu was scratching her skin and itching, restless, and walked around the small room.
Xie Tingzhou got annoyed and looked up at him, "What are you doing?"
Shen Yu said with difficulty: "I want to... go to the toilet."
Xie Tingzhou said: "Go ahead."
"I can bear it any longer." Shen Yu pursed her lips and said.
If you go out, you will definitely be seen by the woman, which will undoubtedly increase the possibility of exposure.
Xie Tingzhou stopped talking. After a while, he looked at Shi Yu's face that was almost deformed from holding back, and said jokingly: "Can you still bear it?"
Shen Yu didn't dare to speak. She was afraid that she would be discouraged as soon as she opened her mouth. She could only shake her head seriously.
Xie Tingzhou chuckled, "Hurry up and go."
Shen Yu opened the door and ran away as if she had received an amnesty.
The woman was trying her best to persuade Uncle Zheng to call her nephew out to see him. She also wanted to see what the living Bodhisattva looked like.
"Uncle Zheng, you are too stingy. Look, you won't lose two taels, eh——"
The woman stood up straight, pointed at Shen Yu who rushed out of the room and said, "Is that your nephew? Ouch, he is really good-looking, like a Bodhisattva."
thank you.
Shen Yu was anxious and had no time to speak, so she hurriedly ran to the hut behind the house.
The woman looked excited. No one was around but she was still looking around, "Has your nephew got a wife?"
After saying that, he shook his head and said, "No, no, she is more beautiful than my Xiu Niang, or..."
The woman suddenly opened her mouth wide and stared dumbly at the person who came out of the room. The pumpkin seeds in her hand fell to the ground.
"This, this, this..." the woman couldn't speak clearly, "This must be a god."
Xie Tingzhou stood at the door, his sharp and cold gaze swept over, and the woman immediately felt her legs and feet went weak.
When Shen Yu came back from going to the toilet, she saw a woman in her forties standing blankly holding on to the fence and looking in the direction of Xie Tingzhou, with a blush gradually appearing on her face.
Very good, Shen Yu thought to herself, she is attracted to Xie Tingzhou.
She is probably older than Xie Tingzhou's mother, Princess Beilin.
