Chapter 239 There is a mouse

Su Yujin hurriedly shook her head, throwing away all those messy associations.

Well, speaking of the Second Master...

Before the Dragon Boat Festival, I made a lot of salted duck eggs and preserved eggs, and also dried some braised duck tongues. In the past few days, I have been thinking about and improving the method of pickled pepper chicken feet, which tastes more sour, spicy and refreshing.

These should all be delicious foods. I think He Yanxiu, who loves food, should like them very much too.

I just don’t know when He Yanxiu will be able to come to Qinghe again.

Then again, when did she start to worry about whether He Yanxiu would come to Qinghe, and when would he come to Qinghe?

Su Yujin felt that her mind was like a small boat drifting in the wind in the vast ocean, and it was difficult to control the direction. She couldn't help but pursed her lips.

"Girl?" Ai Cao saw Su Yujin standing there in a daze and touched her arm.

Su Yujin came back to her senses, "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Yu and Shuangye are coming to kowtow to the young lady, so please go to the hall and take a seat quickly," said Ai Cao.

Su Yujin used to be Shuangye's master, so she could be considered an elder. When leaving home, she and Yu Yongye had to kowtow to Su Yujin together.

This was a courtesy, so Su Yujin did not refuse and sat down in the hall.

Surrounded by the crowd, Shuang Ye and Yu Yongye came to the hall and knelt down and kowtowed to Su Yujin.

Seeing Yu Yongye in front of her looking energetic in his bright red wedding suit and Shuang Ye in her green wedding dress looking beautiful and dignified, Su Yujin's face was as smiling as a peony. She said some auspicious words according to custom, instructing the bride to take care of her husband and children, and to be filial to her parents-in-law, and congratulated the two of them on loving and respecting each other, helping each other, and having a son soon. She then took the comb and lightly touched Yu Yongye and Shuang Ye's heads, as a blessing for the couple to live in harmony and live together forever.

After the ceremony was over, suona, gongs, drums and firecrackers were heard outside, and the sedan chair was ready.

Qingkui acted as Shuangye's younger brother and carried Shuangye on his back to the bridal sedan chair, then sprinkled a handful of wedding money on her. Then the sedan chair was carried out of the yard surrounded by people and went to Yu Yongye's house.

The two houses were not far from each other, separated by only a few alleys. Not long after, Su Yujin heard the sounds of firecrackers and gongs and drums coming from over there at home.

Next, they enter the wedding hall and the bridal chamber, and the wedding banquet begins. The banquet lasts from noon to evening, and the affairs of the wedding day are considered complete.

The custom for a newlywed couple is to entertain guests for nine days.

There is no need to hold a grand banquet within the ninth day, but the family must always have wine and dishes ready to entertain guests who come to congratulate.

On the third day, the daughter-in-law returns home.

Su Yujin's place is Shuang Ye's parents' home, so it's natural that she'll be the one to visit this time.

On the day of returning home, Su Yujin got up early and told Ai Cao, Qing Kui and others to pack and prepare. She then went to Huibin Building to pack up a few dishes and held a lively return banquet for Shuang Ye and Yu Yongye.

With the support of Su Yujin and many sisters, Shuang Ye felt very warm in her heart and was extremely grateful to Su Yujin. She pulled Yu Yongye to the dinner table and said many words of thanks to Su Yujin.

He was so excited, yet felt he had no way to express himself, that he toasted Su Yujin with several more glasses of wine.

When the newlyweds toast you, there is no reason not to drink.

Su Yujin swallowed it all, but when the banquet was over and Shuang Ye and Yu Yongye left, Su Yujin felt dizzy and her cheeks were a little hot.

Seeing this, Ai Cao made the bed and helped Su Yujin to sleep for a while.

Su Yujin was very sleepy, so she went to bed and took a nap.

But she was not good at drinking, and the wine she drank this time was Du Kang wine from Huibin Building. It was much stronger than the fruit wine she usually drank. As soon as it touched the pillow, she fell into a deep sleep.

Not knowing how long she had slept, Su Yujin woke up in a daze.

Seeing that it was already dark outside and candles were lit in the room, he knew it was already late at night, so he did not call Ai Cao and Mother Liu. He just put on his coat and poured a cup of tea from the coffee table next to him.

In May, the nights are much less chilly, and the teapot is placed in the tea bucket. The tea still maintains a warm taste and is very comfortable to drink.

Because he drank too much at noon, Su Yujin was a little thirsty at this time. He drank three cups of tea in a row before stopping.

After sleeping for such a long time, Su Yujin was not sleepy at all even though it was late at night. She simply picked up a vernacular novel she bought from the bookstore from the shelf and started reading.

This is a typical love story between a rich girl and a poor scholar. Although the plot is old-fashioned and melodramatic, the author has excellent literary skills and made the clichéd plot very gripping. Su Yujin was also immersed in it.

There was a breeze outside, causing the branches to sway slightly.

The faint light from the gas-filled lantern lit in the porch cast a mottled shadow of the tree branches and leaves on the window paper.

But the mottled spot seemed to turn into a large black shadow in an instant, slowly approaching the window.

Then, the black shadows suddenly disappeared, and the shadows that had originally fallen on the window could no longer be seen. There was only darkness outside the window.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Su Yujin said "Huh" and looked up.

When I noticed that there was no light outside, I guessed that the ventilator lamp in the corridor had gone out.

But this wind-killing lantern is not afraid of wind and is extremely difficult to extinguish. Now it is extinguished...

It was already so late, Su Yujin didn't have the energy to find out the reason, and just continued to flip through the book in her hand.

A rustling sound began, first in the yard, then in the corridor, and finally seemed to reach the roof...

Su Yujin listened to the noise, put down the script in her hand, and stomped her feet violently.

The rustling sound quickly went away along the roof tiles and soon disappeared.

"What's wrong with the girl?" Ai Cao, who was sleeping in the outer room, heard the noise and hurried over, rubbing his eyes in a daze.

"It should be a mouse." Su Yujin listened carefully again, and when he was sure that there was no more sound, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It has already run away, it's nothing serious, you should go to bed soon."

"There has been a lot of food left over these past two days, so maybe that dirty thing has been attracted to us. I will go find a tabby cat tomorrow and give it a good try."

Ai Cao yawned as she spoke, "If you are not sleepy, will I accompany you for a while?"

"You're so sleepy, just go to bed. I'll fall asleep after reading these two pages, so don't worry about me." Su Yujin smiled and drove Ai Cao out.

Seeing this, Ai Cao had no choice but to go outside and lie down.

At this moment, four dark shadows were chasing each other on the wall not far away, and the swords in their hands made clanging sounds due to the collision.

The four of them fought fiercely and their skills were equally matched, so it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.

Ah... I accidentally went past twelve o'clock...

The company organized a dinner tonight. We ate too late and drank a little too much, so there is only one update tonight. My little cuties don't have to wait any longer~ 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
