Chapter 208 Ancient Literature (XI)
Chu Yun woke up and found himself shamelessly hugging Duan Fuqing. He knew that he was not a good sleeper, but he didn't expect him to be so dishonest. He was like pulling hair from a tiger's butt.
He gently withdrew from Duan Fuqing's arms and met Duan Fuqing's eyes.
Chu Yun froze. He was afraid that Duan Fuqing would scold him and wanted to cover his ears, but Duan Fuqing's face showed no expression. He said nothing and got up to wash up.
Chu Yun wasn't sure what this meant. Did she no longer dislike him?
After waking up and eating, he started learning to write, while Duan Fuqing read a book beside him.
By noon, Chu Yun's studies were not going very smoothly.
"Sir! Look what I bought?"
Fulai came in excitedly carrying a vessel. At this time, Chu Yun was being forced by Duan Fuqing to use a brush.
"You can't even use a pen? Are your hands chicken claws? Hold on!"
Duan Fuqing turned back into a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Chu Yun felt aggrieved. He was clearly holding the expensive-looking brush very properly, but whenever it touched the paper, it would always spread out like a limp blob of black ink.
"You have to control the strength when you pick it up and put it down. Look, the word is black again!"
Duan Fuqing held his forehead helplessly. The little fool had a bad habit. He couldn't use the hair end of the pen to write. He could only use the handle end to write and draw. He had discovered it last time, but was too lazy to care.
This time he had to correct him.
He didn't want to lose his temper at the little idiot because the guy already looked cowardly enough, and just at that moment, the stupid boy Fulai came over.
Fulai was also shocked. Where was his gentle and polite Third Young Master? Why was he yelling at Xiaoyun in such a disrespectful manner?
"Third... Third Young Master..."
"How many times have I told you? Knock before entering, and be gentle with every move you make."
There was no emotion in Duan Fuqing's words, but it made Fulai shudder.
Fulai obediently went out and knocked on the door again.
"Enter."
"Third Young Master, look!"
Fulai was holding a portion of lychees, which didn’t look very good, with some being big and some small.
Lychees are a rare commodity, as the dry land in the north is not suitable for their growth.
"Where did it come from?"
Fulai put the small bowl of food on the table and smiled:
"This morning, Lanyue Pavilion brought in a lot of lychees. They were very generous and picked out the ones that were not in good condition and put them for sale at the door. I had to squeeze in to buy these."
"It cost me five taels of silver!"
Fulai was heartbroken, but such rare things were not sold everywhere. He spent half a month's salary to buy only a few of them.
"Fusheng and the others definitely haven't eaten it. Let's leave early tomorrow and bring it back to them in the evening!"
After saying that, Fulai picked up the small bowls, picked out the biggest one for Duan Fuqing, then picked out a smaller one, and looked at Chu Yun hesitantly.
Chu Yun: ...
Chu Yun didn’t like lychees very much, but after not eating fruit for such a long time, he missed the sweet taste a little.
In the end, Fulai picked a mediocre one for Chuyun and ate the smallest one himself.
Chu Yun wanted to laugh when he saw Fu Lai peeling the lychees carefully. He even licked the juice on his hands. Duan Fuqing frowned when he saw this.
"I don't want to eat this. Go away. It's too unsightly to eat it..."
Fulai refused: "This is Fulai's gift to the Third Young Master. The Third Young Master must eat it! But this thing is really sweet, haha..."
Compared to Fulai's careful tasting, Chuyun seemed to be eating with relish. He peeled a piece and put it in his mouth, chewed it for two seconds and spit out the core.
It was really painful for Fu to see this.
"Master, we're leaving tomorrow... Do you want to go out and have some fun?"
Duan Fuqing peeled the lychee and gave it to Chu Yun, then said:
"Where to go for fun?"
"Hehe... Of course it's the most famous place in Zhouning County..."
Duan Fuqing's expression changed when he heard this, and he glanced at the little idiot eating lychees:
"Who would go to a place like that with you? I've never been there before... You're so dishonest. Do you think everyone has a dirty mind like you?! I've never been there before..."
Duan Fuqing repeatedly said that he had never been there, and his eyes looked at Chu Yun from time to time.
Fu Lai scratched his head, confused. "Yes, yes, Master has never been there. I'm just curious..."
Fulai was indeed curious. It was said that Lanyue Pavilion was different from other brothels, and he wanted to know how it was different. Even if he wanted to do something, as a servant of a wealthy family, he would be powerless without money.
He changed the subject: "Xiao Yun has definitely never been there. He's just a small country bumpkin and probably hasn't even seen such a grand scene."
Chu Yun took Duan Fuqing's handkerchief and wiped his mouth. He didn't understand what the master and servant were talking about. It was almost noon, and he was just curious about lunch.
Duan Fuqing immediately looked at the little idiot, and the little idiot started looking at him again, as if he was really curious. However, Duan Fuqing knew that it was not curiosity, as the little idiot was stupid and didn't understand anything.
"Fulai, are you thinking about that? Then why don't you stay here forever?"
Duan Fuqing smiled and said something that made Fulai shut up.
"I, I'm going to buy food!"
"No, let's go out and eat."
Duan Fuqing felt that the little idiot's face had become a little smaller, and there was no flesh when pinched. It was strange, eating so much every day and still being so thin, where did the flesh go...
Duan Fuqing took them to the largest restaurant in Zhouning County. There were all kinds of people in there, ordinary people and rich people. The lobby was filled with tightly packed tables, and the waiters were moving around in the gaps with plates in their hands, showing great skill.
Chu Yun found everything new and interesting, while Duan Fuqing just looked at him.
"Hey, little idiot, haven't you seen a restaurant? What's so good about it?"
Duan Fuqing felt uncomfortable. He didn't know what kind of life the little fool had lived before. He had never even been to a restaurant.
And if this kind of restaurant that surprised the little fool again and again was placed in the capital, he would not even look at it.
"Go in and order whatever you want."
They didn't eat in the hall, Duan Fuqing went straight upstairs. Upstairs were the private rooms for dignitaries.
The waiter took out the menu and read out the names of the dishes. Chu Yun didn't understand, so he asked Duan Fuqing to come.
After so many days, Duan Fuqing got to know his taste. He was not picky except for food that was too spicy.
"How many?"
Chu Yun understood these two words, and he stretched out his fingers and made the number six.
Duan Fuqing looked at it and ordered six dishes.
This private room has the widest view. Duan Fuqing paid for it and can see clearly everything that happens downstairs.
Duan Fuqing made tea for Chu Yun. The taste of tea has a lot to do with the way it is made. Chu Yun was not used to drinking tea at first, but after Duan Fuqing made a cup for him and he drank it, he never drank boiled water again.
Fulai was also used to Duan Fuqing's care for Xiaoyun. He was a little jealous but not angry. Xiaoyun was good-looking, likable and obedient. Unlike servants like them, she deserved preferential treatment.
While waiting for the meal, there was a noise coming from the hall downstairs. Fulai looked over and found that a handsome man had entered the restaurant, followed by a little maid.
"Wow, she has a great figure, but her face is hidden by the veil. Based on my many years of experience in judging people, I can't be wrong about her appearance!"
Fulai was envious and wanted to grow up like him, but unfortunately his parents gave him a short stature.
Chu Yun also looked over. She was wearing white clothes as white as snow and her hair was flowing in the wind. She was wearing a veil, and only a pair of hooked fox eyes were revealed. The pervert below was so attracted that he wanted to drool. He was truly a handsome man.
Duan Fuqing is also good-looking, but this handsome man has a gentle appearance. Duan Fuqing's phoenix eyes are gentle yet sharp and masculine.
