Chapter 75 Chapter 75 Sister Yu, I only care about the result. ...
The faint morning light lingered around the two of them, and the gloom of many days seemed to have been swept away. Yun Qin asked her softly, "Do you know what you are saying?"
Jiang Daiyi took the initiative to approach Yunqin and hugged him like she did when they were little. She nestled in his arms like a lazy cat: "Of course."
Yun Qin took a step back, and Jiang Daiyi's attack was in vain. She was not in a good mood, and when she felt him retreat, she turned around and left as if in a fit of anger.
The next moment, her wrist was grabbed. Yun Qin pulled her back into his arms and lifted her chin. "Sister, do you have other plans? Do you want to trick me again? You always lie to me."
Jiang Daiyi: "I..."
Yun Qin interrupted her: "But even if you plot against me, I won't let you go."
Jiang Daiyi's eyes reflected Yun Qin's face, "Brother, won't you ask me why I suddenly want to marry you?"
Yun Qin didn't care. "I only care about the outcome, sister. Now that you've said you want to marry me, that's the outcome I want most."
Jiang Daiyi asked, "I want to eat the food from my hometown. Can you cook it for me?"
Yun Qin's eyes were filled with her figure. Now, no matter what she said, he would probably agree.
Jiang Daiyi took Yunqin's hand and took him to the kitchen.
It was a scorching summer day, and the servants in the kitchen were taking a nap under the shade of a tree beside the house. Jiang Daiyi coughed a few times to remind them that someone was coming.
When the servants saw their master coming, they quickly stood up and apologized, "Sir, we didn't mean to be lazy, it's just that it's really hot today."
There are not many people in the Yun Mansion now. Apart from preparing three meals a day for him and Jiang Daiyi, there is really no need to stay in the kitchen all the time, especially in such a hot day.
Yunqin never fussed over such trivial matters. He said, "I'll give you two weeks off. It's hot in June. Go home and have a good rest for a while. Come back and you'll receive your salary as usual."
"Thank you, sir..."
The servants were able to have a holiday thanks to Jiang Daiyi. They could see that Yunqin was very happy today, and before leaving, they did not forget to leave a word to please Yunqin.
"Young Master and Miss Jiang are truly a match made in heaven."
Yun Qin heard this and said generously: "Go and collect some rewards before leaving."
When Jiang Daiyi heard the laughter coming out of Yun Qin's throat, her originally bright eyes dimmed a little.
She pulled Yunqin and urged, "I'm hungry."
Yun Qin then turned around and let Jiang Daiyi pull him into the kitchen. In fact, when Jiang Daiyi was a child, she couldn't get used to Yan Ling's food at all, and her identity had already been exposed.
My aunt had realized this and asked Yunqin privately, but Yunqin evaded the question by saying that he had been in Tianque for many years.
When Jiang Daiyi lived in the Yun family as a child, Yun Qin always ordered the servants to cook dishes from her hometown. Over the years, he had gotten used to eating southern dishes with Jiang Daiyi.
Jiang Daiyi helped Yunqin. The always noble young man was in the kitchen, watching the fire while preventing the girl from suddenly making trouble. Yunqin had not experienced such a relaxed and happy life for many years.
Even if it's an illusion.
At night, the stars and the moon are bright.
Jiang Daiyi was holding a candied haws in her hand. She ate two or three and didn't want to eat the rest.
Yunqin asked, "Isn't it delicious?"
Jiang Daiyi nodded, then shook her head: "It's sweet and sour, the taste is very complicated, delicious and not delicious, you will get sick of it if you eat too much."
Yunqin said calmly, "My sister always buys candied haws when she sees them, but she can never finish them. But if she sees one selling them next time, she will still buy some."
These words were quite meaningful. Jiang Daiyi handed the candied haws to Yunqin and said, "I can't eat any more."
Yunqin held up the candied haws and said, "My sister Yu is just like this candied haws. I want to get close to her, but I also feel annoyed."
Jiang Daiyi was silent for a moment. She knew what Yunqin meant. Her ambiguous attitude made him extremely uneasy.
He was afraid of losing her all the time.
Jiang Daiyi asked softly, "Why would you think that, brother?"
Yunqin wanted her pure feelings, not deception.
He said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it."
Jiang Daiyi turned her attention back to the string of candied haws. She took the candied haws back, and Yunqin's hands were empty.
He asked, "Sister, don't you want to eat anymore?"
Jiang Daiyi opened her mouth and finished the rest of the candied haws. Yun Qin saw her cheeks puffed up and couldn't help but smile softly: "Why are you eating so fast?"
After swallowing all the candied haws, Jiang Daiyi gently shook the empty bamboo stick and smiled, "Is this okay?"
Yun Qin's smile paused. He compared himself to a candied haws and said some sarcastic words. She didn't get angry. Instead, she ate all the candied haws to comfort him. How thoughtful of her.
Just this once, what's wrong with trusting her again?
Yunqin asked her, "Where's the handkerchief?"
Jiang Daiyi threw away the bamboo stick and took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, but she didn't give it to Yunqin. She said, "Yanling has a saying that accepting a girl's handkerchief is just a token of love between the two of you. Brother, you have accepted so many handkerchiefs from me, why don't you marry me?"
Yun Qin's face was filled with a comfortable smile, and he said gently, "I'll marry you."
The moon hangs on the branches, and I can't sleep all night.
The next day, when Jiang Daiyi got up early, Yunqin was already waiting outside. Her almost abnormal affection in recent days did not seem to make Yunqin suspicious. Instead, he was willing to indulge in her tenderness.
It just so happened that a Jiangnan restaurant had recently opened in the royal city. Yun Qin guessed that Jiang Daiyi would like the dishes there, so he waited for her to get up and took her to eat.
After Jiang Daiyi finished washing up, she came out from the inner room and saw Yunqin sitting there. She was surprised and said, "Brother, didn't you go out to deal with some official business after returning home yesterday? How come you are up so early today?"
Yunqin said, "I'll take you out."
To the people, Jiang Daiyi is no different from an unforgivable fugitive. If she goes out, won't she be subject to the people's ruthless judgment?
"Isn't it a bit unsafe?" Jiang Daiyi said uncertainly.
She suspected that if she showed her face in public, the people would eat her alive and drown her with their saliva.
Yunqin asked the maid to get the curtain, "I won't let them see you."
The maid put a veil on Jiang Daiyi, and Yunqin led her out.
Jiang Daiyi hadn't been out on the street for a long time. When she went out, it seemed that even the air was fresh, and there was a smell of freedom and unrestrainedness.
Yunqin took Jiang Daiyi to visit the newly opened stalls. She didn't like going to the shops selling gold hairpins and jade, but instead liked some novel little gadgets.
"Mr. Yun, what is this?" The small vendor looked at the girl beside Yun Qin. Her face behind the fence was looming, giving people an extremely hazy beauty.
Yun Qin didn't seem to be afraid of Jiang Daiyi being recognized at all, and said calmly: "She is a distant cousin. She just arrived in the royal city today. I brought her out to buy some things."
The small vendors had also heard the recent rumors. Since Yunqin had never cared about details and treated people gently, they spoke more boldly.
The vendor said, "It's good that it's not that assassin. Young Master Yun, please don't be deceived by that assassin. You should do what you need to do before it tarnishes your reputation. Take your little cousin out for a stroll like you are doing now, so your mind won't be solely on that one person."
Yunqin picked up a rattle and shook it for Jiang Daiyi to see like coaxing a child. Mu Li shook it gently, and Jiang Daiyi shook her head to indicate that she didn't want it.
Yunqin put the rattle back and was about to pick something else for her to play with, but Jiang Daiyi grabbed his hand and led him away from the stall.
"What's wrong?" Yun Qin asked her.
Jiang Daiyi took Yunqin to a deserted place and said, "I don't want to go there anymore. It's too easy for people to recognize me."
Yun Qin thought she was upset because of the vendor's words, so he comforted her, "Then go directly to the restaurant. There won't be anyone else in the private room."
Jiang Daiyi had been bored in the mansion for several months. If she hadn't been forced to do so, she really didn't want to go back. She nodded and said, "Okay."
Yun Qin had already sent Si Wu to the restaurant to make arrangements in advance, so no one would bother to find out Jiang Daiyi's identity.
The vendor had received Yun Qin's favor and was much older than Yun Qin, so he was very afraid that Yun Qin would go astray by protecting a vicious assassin, so he couldn't help but say a few more words.
The owner of the restaurant is indeed a southerner. Compared to Yanling where everything is sweet and light in flavor, southern dishes are actually more acceptable to people. It’s just that the people of Yanling are used to eating Yanling dishes, so they don’t find them tasteless. Now that the restaurant has opened, people come in an endless stream and the business is booming.
Yun Qin took Jiang Daiyi to the private room. After the waiter served all the dishes, he left without saying a word. It was obvious that Si Wu had informed them in advance.
Jiang Daiyi took down the curtain, and Yunqin said, "Try the food here and see if it tastes good."
Yunqin didn't eat either, just watched Jiang Daiyi eat, as if if she said it was not tasty, he would ask the chef to cook it again the next moment.
Jiang Daiyi tasted several dishes in a row and found them to be authentic. She couldn't help but eat more.
Yun Qin said, "If you like it, invite the chef here back."
Jiang Daiyi said, "You'll get tired of eating it every day."
Yun Qin's eyes dimmed slightly when he heard this. He seemed to be thinking about something. It's common sense to get tired of the old and love the new. Even if it's just the same dish, you will get tired of it if you eat it every day. His eyes were full of Jiang Daiyi, and he asked tentatively with a look of doubt in his eyes, "Where's that person?"
Jiang Daiyi was enjoying her meal and didn't pay much attention to what Yunqin was saying. "Who is it?"
The wind outside the window blew in gusts, and Yunqin's black hair on his clothes swayed slightly. It was the first time for Jiang Daiyi to eat the food here. Everything was delicious. She ate slowly, so it took her a long time to finish.
Yun Qin saw that she didn't seem to hear what he meant, so he didn't ask any more questions and just said softly, "It's okay."
Jiang Daiyi ate most of the dishes on the table and was so full that she could hardly walk. She wanted to go back home and sleep, but Yunqin wanted her to digest the food before going back, saying that she had just eaten too much and it would be bad for her to sleep now.
The two of them found a secluded place with few people to take a walk to digest their food. Jiang Daiyi felt less full and was about to say that she wanted to go back home when Si Wu had already arrived in front of them in a carriage.
Jiang Daiyi was puzzled. This place was not far from the Yun Mansion, so there was no need to use a carriage. She asked, "What is this?"
Yun Qin's eyes were filled with indistinct emotions. He said calmly, "I'm going to the border to help Song Lai deal with King Huai Geng, but I'm worried about you. You should come with me."
Jiang Daiyi's expression changed instantly behind the curtain, but the layers of veil blocked her view, so Yun Qin couldn't see her reaction clearly.
Yun Qin's tone was normal, as if he hadn't noticed anything unusual about Jiang Daiyi. "Besides, Qian Xiang is also detained in the mansion, and Yun Qing has been eyeing you covetously. It's very dangerous for you to be here. I can't spare the time to stay here with you, so taking you with me is the best way."
Jiang Dai seemed to be thinking about it. The person under the fence didn't move for a long time, so Yun Qin waited quietly. Then, she suddenly mentioned another person.
She said, "Qian Xiang has fallen into a trap. I'm afraid he wants to work together with King Huai Geng. It would be better to take Qian Xiang with him and keep him under our noses. It would be more reassuring."
A gust of wind blew by, and Yun Qin's gentle brows sank slightly.
Jiang Daiyi seemed to think this reason was too far-fetched, and couldn't help but add another sentence to explain: "The new king's foundation is unstable, and there are factional disputes in the royal city. If Qian Xiang wants to take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos, I'm afraid it will be disastrous."
Yun Qin didn't say anything. Jiang Daiyi looked at his expression through the curtain. Yun Qin's beautiful face was vaguely visible through the long veil, which made her look even more handsome. It took Jiang Daiyi a long time before she heard his gentle voice, but his tone was faint and inexplicably gloomy.
"good."
