Shen Zhixiu stood at the entrance of the rockery. Two people not far away obviously didn't notice his arrival and were sitting on the ground kissing.
Li Yunzhou put one hand on Shen Yue's waist and the other hand on the back of her head.
Shen Zhixiu could even hear Li Yunzhou's heavy breathing and Shen Yue's moans.
This voice sounded a bit harsh to Shen Zhixiu's ears. In his eyes, Shen Yue was still a child. Even if she was engaged, she was still... still young.
He knew that the two of them were in love, but knowing and seeing it with his own eyes were two different things.
"Li Yunzhou...you...you let Shen Yue go."
Shen Zhixiu's words startled the two men, and they separated in a panic.
Shen Yue lowered her head, her face as red as a ripe peach in August. She hurriedly straightened her clothes, her mind blank.
How could she be bumped into by her uncle? She didn't even notice that he was coming.
Would Uncle San think that she was unruly and was casually intimate with others?
Thinking of this, Shen Yue felt so ashamed that she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Li Yunzhou gently comforted Shen Yue, "Don't be afraid, I'll go talk to the teacher."
He stood up and walked to Shen Zhixiu, "Teacher, you came to see me, is there something wrong?"
Shen Zhixiu glared at Li Yunzhou unhappily, then said, "There are people from the Li family outside, and they're probably keeping an eye on you. Don't go to Elm Hutong yet, go tomorrow."
The lustful look in Li Yunzhou's eyes had completely vanished. Upon hearing this, he said coldly, "They are getting anxious. I will go back to the Li family right now. I will deal with those who are following us tonight."
In the past, Li Yunzhou used the appearance of a scholar to hide his sinister heart. After returning to the capital in triumph, he no longer concealed his true nature, and his words and actions revealed the fierce demeanor of a military commander.
Shen Zhixiu nodded, thought for a moment and then said, "Shen Yue is still young."
There was a hint of warning in his words.
Li Yunzhou touched his nose helplessly, thinking that the teacher was overthinking it. He wouldn't overstep his bounds before the wedding. Just now... he couldn't help himself. Even if the teacher hadn't come, he would have known better than to do anything else.
“Yes, the students know.”
After saying that, Li Yunzhou glanced at Chen Yue and prepared to leave.
But he still stopped beside Shen Zhixiu and said, "Teacher, Yue'er is still young, but my sister...is not big either."
Then, under Shen Zhixiu's astonished gaze, he raised his foot and walked away.
Shen Yue also stood up at this time and bowed beside Shen Zhixiu, "Niece, take your leave."
Then he left with his head lowered, almost running.
Shen Zhixiu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and returned to the west courtyard.
When I entered the room, Su Qingyu was taking the maids to look at the new clothes made in spring.
He turned to look at Shen Zhixiu, and seeing that he looked a little off, he stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you see anyone?"
Shen Zhixiu forced a smile, "I see..." He looked at the servants who were sorting clothes in the room, "You guys go down first."
Feicui led his men out one after another and left the inner room.
Su Qingyu was even more surprised. What happened? Why did he have to do it behind people's backs?
Shen Zhixiu pulled Su Qingyu to sit down and told her what had just happened.
Su Qingyu was stunned. After Shen Zhixiu finished speaking, she asked in disbelief, "Third Master just let him let him go like that?"
Shen Zhixiu nodded.
"What else?"
"Although Shen Yue is not young anymore, she is still not married."
"Before I got married, I was very well-behaved."
Su Qingyu shook her head. "How are they the same?"
Shen Zhixiu was puzzled, "Why is it different?"
Su Qingyu looked at Shen Zhixiu helplessly. He was usually a smart man, but how come he was like a piece of wood when talking about matters between men and women?
She explained softly, "Before my brother left for the war, the two of them expressed their feelings for each other. My brother's life and death were in doubt several times, and they hadn't seen each other for half a year, so it was inevitable that they would be excited for a while."
"I didn't say my brother was right to do this. I just said that if this happens again, Third Master can have his subordinates report it. You interrupted them so directly. Where will Shen Yue's face be? I'm afraid she will be embarrassed to see you for a while."
Shen Zhixiu blurted out, "Next time? There's a next time? Next time I'll personally escort him out of the house."
Su Qingyu understood his feelings as an elder, but still advised: "If things go well, they can get married by the end of the year, and Third Master won't have to be wary of him like a thief."
"How about this, I'll talk to Shen Yue tomorrow. Tell her you were just a little surprised and didn't mean to belittle her. I'll also talk to my brother privately. Let's talk about it. Act according to emotion but stay within the bounds of propriety. Don't do anything that goes beyond the rules."
Shen Zhixiu nodded reluctantly, "Okay, I'll do as Madam says."
Su Qingyu found it increasingly amusing. If they really had a daughter, with his precautions, she probably wouldn't be able to get married. After all, with Elder Shen's eyesight, he probably wouldn't think anyone was worthy of his daughter.
She thought of the time before their marriage and wanted to tease him.
He reached out and pinched Shen Zhixiu's chin, lifting it slightly, and the two of them looked into each other's eyes.
Su Qingyu suddenly smiled charmingly, "The Third Master was so well-behaved before the wedding. I'm afraid his mind was elsewhere, wasn't it?"
"It's all written in the notebook. This man has no rules."
Shen Zhixiu knew she was joking and coughed lightly, "Madam, where did you read this storybook? What else is written in it?"
Su Qingyu seemed to be thinking about something. "It's all about men. They're all bad."
This is what is written in the storybook, but Su Qingyu feels that there are exceptions, and her third master is an exception.
While she was stunned, Shen Zhixiu stood up and picked her up.
While kissing her cheek, he said, "Be good, don't look at me anymore. If you want to know about men, just ask me."
After putting her on the bed, Shen Zhixiu whispered in her ear: "Before we got married, I actually..."
He stopped talking here, Su Qingyu raised her head, and the corners of her eyes were shining.
"How was it before the wedding?"
Shen Zhixiu leaned over and kissed her hard, then said what he wanted to say in a hoarse voice.
Su Qingyu blushed when she heard that and pinched his waist hard.
"Third Master, aren't you ashamed? Why do you say everything?"
"You asked, what else do you want to know? Your husband will tell you everything."
At this time, the two of them did not know that the Li family had completely changed tonight.
