Chapter 213 Ancient Literature (16)
Duan Fuqing was very busy as soon as he came back. He had to pay his respects to the eldest lady and Minister Duan. He had an idle position in the Ministry of Rites, a fifth-rank deputy minister of the Ministry of Rites.
He was still young and had just passed the coming-of-age ceremony, but he was already able to work with the old hands in the court. The only people on duty in the Duan Mansion now were Minister Duan, the eldest son, and Duan Fuqing.
Although Duan Fuqing's job was an easy and leisurely one, he still had to get up early and go to work at the Ministry of Rites.
Chu Yun felt that he was much more free than the young master Duan Fuqing, who just ate, drank and had fun every day. There were only three servants in Duan Fuqing's yard, wishing him good health and longevity.
The food Fushou cooks is especially delicious. His father used to be a chef, but when there was a famine in his hometown, he spent all his money to send him to the capital to find a job.
Fusheng is a steady and responsible person, and he takes care of everything in Duan Fuqing's yard.
Fulai could read and write, so Duan Fuqing usually asked him to go with him when he had errands.
Chuyun can eat and sleep, and currently he is playing with the little squirrels in the yard.
The servants in Duan Fuqing's yard are all very free. Fu said that Chu Yun had never been out for a walk since he came to the capital, and he wanted to take him out to play.
Chu Yun was a little hesitant. He hadn't finished writing his big characters today. If he didn't finish, Duan Fuqing wouldn't give him any snacks.
Duan Fuqing's learning ability was so strong that after Chu Yun said something twice, he could roughly guess its meaning and remember it. They could already communicate in a simple way.
"Let's go, the roast chicken at Yuxiangju is almost out of the oven at this time. If you're late, there will be a long line."
Chu Yun only understood the two words "roast chicken". He was a little greedy. Duan Fuqing would bring him delicious food every night after get off work, so he didn't like to eat much. Now he was a little hungry.
Chu Yun took action. His wardrobe was filled with beautiful clothes, all bought for him by Duan Fuqing.
Duan Fuqing knew very well what kind of clothes suited Chu Yun. The brighter the color, the more energetic he would look.
Fusheng scratched his head when he saw Chuyun come in:
"The Third Young Master said that he would let Xiaoyun move in once the annex was ready, but it's been so many days already? The Third Young Master even asked him to live and eat with him..."
Fu Lai didn't think so. The Third Young Master asked him to join him during the days of staying in the hotel and taking the bus. He waved his hand:
"Well, what's the big deal? The Third Young Master is kind to us servants."
Fusheng and Fushou looked at each other and rolled their eyes in silence, what a tactless idiot.
Chu Yun has chosen her clothes, a sky blue one that makes her look whiter. 001's fingers have become more flexible and she can already tie her hair.
As soon as Chu Yun opened the door, he was met with three pairs of idiots with wide eyes. He chuckled and turned around.
"How is it? Does it look good?"
It was unknown what material Chu Yun's clothes were made of, but a faint stream of light could be seen under the sun. When he moved, he was as agile as a little butterfly. Needless to say, he was so handsome, and such an exquisite person could not be found in the whole capital.
Fu came to look at the ordinary clothes he was wearing. He looked more like a master and a servant when he went out.
The three of them looked at each other and went back to their room to change clothes.
By the time we finished changing, the line at Yuxiangju was already very long.
"Ah...it's still a little late."
It would be a waste of time for four people to queue up for the roast chicken, and Fulai still wanted to listen to books in the library.
So they decided to guess the Ding fist, and the loser would queue up to buy roast chicken. Chu Yun's luck played a big role, and he successfully lost, leaving behind a long queue.
"Well, I'll come back and tell you the story after I finish listening to it."
Chu Yun curled his lips, not knowing what they were going to do. He only knew that he lost and was arranged to queue.
He waved to them and lined up at the back by himself.
Fushou was worried that Chuyun couldn't speak or understand and would be in danger.
"If there's any danger, I can tell you... The Third Young Master has sent people to protect him."
"who?"
Fusheng didn't know about this. When he was bringing water to the young master that day, he heard the noise inside the house before he even entered.
——"Take good care of the little idiot. Don't let him find out, and don't let him get bullied."
Fusheng felt that the Third Young Master was very considerate. Xiao Yun was indeed handsome and dangerous. Many people came to chat with him along the way, both men and women, but they all dispersed when they heard that he was a little servant.
Chu Yun was bored waiting in line. The sun was not as strong but still very hot. He lowered his head and picked at his fingers, and a shadow fell on the side of him.
Chu Yun looked up and saw a man with a red face who looked like a scholar. He looked timid and mumbled something with his lips. He didn't dare to look up at Chu Yun. He stuffed a letter into Chu Yun's hand and ran away.
Chu Yun was illiterate, and there were two lines of poetry on the cover of the letter, and the paper felt quite rough.
【Oh, I received a love letter. 】
001's tone was particularly sour, and he wanted to snatch the letter and tear it up.
Chu Yun shrugged and was about to put the letter away when another person came over. He was dressed very warmly. Chu Yun recognized the pair of eyes, dark green like a wolf. It was the man in black who jumped over the wall in Duan Fuqing's courtyard that day.
Chu Yun hadn't seen the man in black for several days since he brought him clothes and bedding.
This person was not wearing a mask. He had an exotic look, with a high nose bridge, thin lips, deep eye sockets, and a scar on the side of his face. He was not ugly, but rather added a bit of wildness to his appearance.
The man pursed his lips and said nothing. He seemed to know that Chu Yun didn't understand. After looking at Chu Yun, he quickly moved away and stretched out his hand towards him.
The meaning is very clear, I want this letter.
Chu Yun knew that this was one of his own. After a little thought, he realized that he was sent by Duan Fuqing to protect him.
He gave him the letter without any hesitation.
Seeing him disappear from Chu Yun's sight so easily, Ye Lin didn't know whether he left completely or ran back to complain.
When he reached an alley where he could clearly see Chu Yun, Ye Lin stopped. He opened the letter, glanced at it briefly, then frowned and waved his hand.
The letter fluttered and swayed, and finally fell into a stinking mud ditch, where it was stepped on by a passing stray dog.
Chu Yun was lucky, as he bought the last remaining roast chicken. The children in the queue behind him cried loudly because of their greed, but Chu Yun pretended not to hear.
A chicken is not big to begin with, and the little fat boy can eat it just by looking at it, so he doesn’t want to let it go.
Since he came to the capital, he has never met the main character, not even the supporting character. Logically speaking, the capital is an important point for the mission, and Su Shangqing likes to play, so it should be easy to meet them.
001 said that this was the time when Su Shangqing and Qin Ce fell in love with each other. He began to change his mind for Qin Ce and turned down those gatherings with young masters.
Chu Yun was a little anxious. He wanted to ask Duan Fuqing, but even if Duan Fuqing told him, he wouldn't understand.
"I have to go to school!"
001 patted his head and said lovingly:
[Silly child, don't embarrass yourself.]
Chu Yun put his schooling aside for the time being, and upon returning to the mansion, he immediately lured out the green-eyed man.
What a joke! He is close to Duan Fuqing. What if he complains to Duan Fuqing about delivering the letter today?
Chu Yun's IQ has now risen to a higher level, and he is very smart.
But Chu Yun didn't know what Green Eyes was called, nor did he know how to call him out.
001 gave him an idea.
So Chu Yun squatted in the corner, covering her eyes and shrugging her shoulders, looking like she was crying.
In order to make the performance more realistic, Chu Yun used his best acting skills.
“Wuwuwu… Wuwuwu…”
[…You better stop crying.]
It's so fake.
But this was enough, Chu Yun felt someone patting his shoulder.
He turned around and met green eyes.
