Seeing the darkness before her eyes, Xiu Ying's sense of hearing had become even more sensitive than before. The tip of her nose was filled with the fragrance of Shen Jun's smiling body. It was a light and soft fragrance of pine. If she didn't go near it, she wouldn't be able to smell it. His heart was thumping, and the sound of water dripping on the eaves could be heard clearly. It was clearly very far away, but she could still hear it clearly.
The footsteps and voices outside were getting closer and closer.
"This is also because you mentioned it the last time. I think we should have someone check it out first. Back then, this matter was extremely confidential, and the reason why I was able to find out about it was all thanks to my father's connections. "
Xiu Ying's eyes widened when she heard that voice. The one that had called out to her father was unexpectedly the son of the Marquis of Yongping. She had heard his voice before.
Master Shen then thanked him, "I am deeply grateful that the crown prince has given me such valuable information."
"However, it's just a sentence, how can there not be gratitude." I heard you want to reopen your clan's school?! " The Marquis of Yongping was stumped, and the conversation between the two turned to the topic of family studies.
Xiu Ying heard Master Shen happily say "yes", and then something about him showing her respect … Gradually, the sounds of his voice faded and the sounds of his footsteps disappeared.
Only then did Shen Jun let go of Xiu Ying's waist, and she let out a sigh of relief.
"Third uncle …" she called softly.
Shen Jun smiled and bent down, patting her head. "But I've scared you."
Xiu Ying shook her head. She turned her head to the side and saw that the screen had fallen to the ground and hadn't gotten up yet.
Shen Jun smiled back at Bei Bei, before saying seriously to Xiu Ying, "Just pretend you didn't hear anything today." Even though this was just a sentence, it was filled with the battle of the past. The place was filled with blood and gore, and it was even scarier than the battlefield.
Xiu Ying knew what was important. She had always heard about the matters of the imperial court, but she had never said much. She knew that the fighting among the officials in the court was much more intense than in the backyard.
Seeing that she was so sensible, Shen Jun's smile became a bit more relaxed. Shen Jun smiled as he saw this. Shen Junxiao only gave her a slight glance, causing her heart to tremble.
When they left the room, Xiu Ying saw that the bottom half of Shen's robe was wet. Her skirt was also wet.
When he had carried her in, the umbrella had been between them.
She silently looked at their clothes. Shen Junxiao squatted down in front of her and said, "Third uncle will carry you. You can help third uncle to hold an umbrella. Ping-er, go back and get your master a new set of clothes. "
Xiu Ying looked at his back and hesitated. Third uncle looked really thin and weak. She was pretty heavy right now. Could he have twisted her waist?
The little girl didn't move for a long time. Shen Junxiao simply grabbed her waist and leaned against her. Then, he stood up and walked away quickly. Xiu Ying hadn't been scared to the point of screaming, but now she was laughing nonstop.
Her third uncle was much stronger than she had expected.
By the time he arrived at Mu Xi Yuan, Du Yicheng, whom he had not seen for over ten days, was already standing in front of the veranda, wearing a straw cape.
Xiu Ying stared blankly at him. Why was he here? When he thought of the Marquis of Yongping, who almost bumped into him just now, he felt relieved again. He reckoned that he must have come with the Marquis of Yongping, but why was he still wearing his raincoat when they had arrived.
When Shen Junxiao saw Du Yicheng, his originally gentle expression immediately turned cold. Carrying Xiu Ying on his back, he entered the house and cupped his hands in greeting.
Seeing how close the two were, Du Yicheng's eyes glinted before sinking back down again. Shen Junxiao really doted on this little girl. No wonder she dared to be so arrogant that day.
"Young Master Dean please sit and go down to change." Shen Jun smiled as he readied his wrinkled body, while Du Yicheng nodded.
Xiu Ying wanted to beat him up, so she didn't want to be alone with him. She turned around and followed Shen Jun into the room. Only after entering the inner room did she realize that her Third Uncle wanted to change his clothes!
Xiu Ying's body froze. She stood at the door, unable to move forward or backward. Luckily, Fourth Treasure also entered. He let Xiu Ying sit on the Luo Han bed while he carried the clean clothes to the clean room.
Although there was another person in the room, Xiu Ying still felt very embarrassed. She thought that she must pay more attention in the future. She was so immersed in the love of her elders that she completely ignored the proper etiquette.
Shen Jun smiled and changed into a new set of clothes very quickly. When he was dressed in a crescent white robe and had Jade Tree Yun Zhi stand in front of Xiu Ying, she had just regained her senses. Xiu Ying raised her head to look at the increasingly handsome face and blinked her eyes.
Shen Jun couldn't help laughing as he looked at her face. He raised his hand to stroke her hair.
"It's that pretty?"
Xiu Ying nodded subconsciously, and the smile in Shen Jun's eyes became even wider. Strangely, so many people in his past life had praised his looks, not to mention which man was only willing to be praised as good, yet she did not hesitate to nod her head to make him feel happy.
Shen Jun smiled as he felt his emotions were inconceivable. He then thought about Li Qingzhao, who was as famous as him in his previous life. That fellow also had a good appearance. Could it be that this little girl also had her eyes on his face first?
To first judge a person by his appearance was not a good habit.
Shen Junxiao was thinking that he would have to help the little girl to fix her illness, otherwise she would be at a disadvantage. It was said that he could not tell the difference between a man's heart and a woman's face.
Ping'er also brought the clothes over, and took three of them in a row.
She explained, "Madame said that she was afraid of the rain these days, and that girls come and go without getting wet. So I decided to give San Ye two sets of clothes, so that he wouldn't have to put on wet clothes and catch cold. "
Shen gave a smile to Sixi, who found a cupboard half full of her clothes, then hurried her to change.
Du Yicheng had already finished half a cup of tea on the outside. The uncle and nephew duo had only just come out, and so he snorted coldly in his heart. What kind of rules does the Shen family have? A man and a woman of about seven years old are different from each other. This little girl was spoiled to the point of changing her clothes in Shen Jun's room.
He just looked at Xiu Ying a couple more times.
Just now, Xiu Ying was wearing a red dress with a short skirt. Now that she had changed into a pink one, it made her skin look even more snow-white, and her face looked even more round. He had the urge to pinch her again.
Unconsciously, Du Yicheng recalled the soft touch on his fingertip that day. It felt like a ball of noodles, but the ball of noodles was very smooth. In short, it was very easy to pinch.
Xiu Ying instantly sensed his malicious thoughts. She looked at him warily, and then hid behind Shen Jun and Xiao Xiao's back. Du Yicheng's little overlord's temper also rose. He secretly thought that if Shen Jun smiled or didn't notice, he would pinch him once.
It was raining outside, so he led the way to the study.
There was a gap between his study and Xiu Ying's writing. He and the little tyrant were making tea outside. It had to be said that Du Yizheng suffered a huge loss after returning the favor. This time, he learnt his lesson and built a fire as quickly as he could. After the water was boiled, he picked it up with the intention of boiling.
Shen Jun smiled as he thought about the matter between Marquis Yongping and his elder brother. He understood why the Min family treated the Shen family so intimately in his previous life. It was most likely something his elder brother said to his elder brother when he entered the capital. He didn't even know that his brother had learned of the Min family's past at this time.
Should he mention this?
Thinking about how the Min family would be pampered for the next few years, Shen Junxiao decided to ignore Master Shen and started to hesitate. There was also Second Master Shen, who was serving in the imperial court.
When he came back to his senses, Du Yicheng had already served him some tea. He took a glance at it and lightly said, "Was it just the sound of water being boiled? "Again, this is Da Hong Pao. That would ruin the taste of the tea."
Du Yicheng looked at him and cursed in his heart — F * ck!
