Chapter 240: Defeat Green Tea with Green Tea and Fall in Love with the Warlord (19)
Sun Qianying stood there in a daze. She didn't expect the old lady to react like this. Tears were still on her face, and her eyes were filled with shock. She sat on the ground but no one was supporting her. The maids around her just looked at her coldly and didn't come near her.
If Sun Qianying had accepted her duties and not interfered, they would have served her respectfully. But now that she was causing the Marshal no peace, she was naturally not a master they could respect.
As for whether Han Zhiyao was attracted to a man or a woman...they were from the Marshal's Mansion. To be honest, if it weren't for the protection of the Marshal's Mansion, they probably didn't know what their lives would be like outside. They had no right to care, let alone care.
"Cui Ping, I'm a little tired. Help me go back and rest."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Chunmei," Old Lady Han glanced at the maid standing at the side and raised her hand to push the hairpin on her forehead, "Help Miss Sun go back and rest."
"yes."
Cuiping helped the old lady upstairs to her room. Chunmei and several other maids walked up to Sun Qianying and said, "Miss Sun, let's go."
After entering the room, Cuiping closed the door, helped the old lady sit down, and poured her a glass of water.
In fact, the old lady likes to drink tea on weekdays, but a few days ago, Li Ziyan said that drinking tea at night would make it difficult to rest, so he changed the old lady's drink to honey water.
The old lady took a sip and put the cup aside. "Oh, I hope this girl won't do anything out of line again."
"Madam, the Marshal's matter..."
"Actually, I guessed it a long time ago, but I just didn't dare to confirm it. I didn't expect... Oh..." The old lady sighed and frowned. She had heard Li Ziyan's voice before, and she felt that it was somewhat familiar, but she had never remembered it. She also felt that Li Ziyan's figure seemed to have been seen somewhere before. She had observed it intentionally and saw the Adam's apple on Li Ziyan's neck, but Li Ziyan's Adam's apple was not obvious, so the old lady just thought he was too thin. "Now that I know, I'm not surprised at all. I just didn't expect them to be together."
Cuiping opened her mouth and closed it again, her expression not looking good. She gently patted the old lady's back, "Alas, what is the young master thinking? No matter how handsome Mr. Yan is, he is still a man. I'm afraid he will be criticized in the future."
"I know that child. He only dared to bring him home because he had set his sights on this man. He had even plotted against Mr. Yan and me. Otherwise, why would he bring him home? Wouldn't he have just gone to Adjutant Liu with him?" The old lady had lived half her life and had a clear view of everything. "My grandson never backed down in the face of this war. How could he change because of criticism from others? Forget it, he's grown up a long time ago and knows what's going on. As an old lady, I won't worry about it."
Cuiping nodded and helped the old lady to bed to rest. The Marshal's Mansion fell into silence again.
On the other side, Han Zhiyao had already rushed to the backyard of the Pear Garden. It was already dark and the back door of the Pear Garden was locked.
Han Zhiyao looked around, kicked the wall, jumped up, jumped onto the roof, and jumped into the yard.
He was already familiar with this place and could walk to Li Ziyan's room with his eyes closed. The door was tightly closed and the lights were not on. Han Zhiyao took a breath, carefully pushed open the window on one side, and walked in.
Han Zhiyao's footsteps were so light that they were hard to notice. He walked to the bedside step by step. Han Zhiyao looked at the bulging quilt. He felt relieved, but still a little nervous.
After taking off his shoes and getting on the bed, Han Zhiyao hugged Li Ziyan's waist from behind, but the next second he was almost stabbed in the stomach.
“Who is it?!”
"Don't be afraid! It's me! It's me, Zi Yan, it's me..."
"Zhiyao?" Li Ziyan's struggles weakened. He carefully identified the owner of the voice, turned around, and saw a familiar face. "Why are you here?"
Han Zhiyao didn't say anything. He held Li Ziyan in his arms, tightened his grip, buried his nose in Li Ziyan's neck, and inhaled the faint fragrance from Li Ziyan.
"I miss you."
"...Then don't come over in the middle of the night, that's so rude." Li Ziyan's heart softened. They hadn't seen each other for just a few days, but it felt like a long time had passed. With his head on Han Zhiyao's chest, Li Ziyan nestled himself in Han Zhiyao's arms, "I missed you, too."
"Zi Yan, did Sun Qianying come to see you? Did he say anything inappropriate to you?"
"She came, but she didn't say anything else. How did you know?"
Han Zhiyao touched the hair on the back of Li Ziyan's head and the tender flesh on the back of her neck, and said in a deep voice, "She made a scene after she got home and told everyone about you."
"...The old lady knows everything?"
"Um."
"Then why aren't you at home? What if the old lady gets mad and gets really upset? You really are!" Li Ziyan was extremely anxious. The old lady was obviously a conservative person, so how could she accept such a thing? "Are you stupid?"
"Silly wife, I think you're the dumbest one." Han Zhiyao's expression turned helpless, and his anger and dissatisfaction with Sun Qianying also dissipated a little. He raised his hand and touched Li Ziyan's cheek, "Grandma should have known it a long time ago."
"Ah..." Li Ziyan opened his mouth, a look of stunned silence. He was usually so "shrewd" that when he occasionally showed such an expression, it made people feel particularly endeared.
Han Zhiyao smiled and kissed Li Ziyan's forehead, and placed his hands on Li Ziyan's waist and hips. "Don't be afraid. Grandma may look old-fashioned, but she is actually very understanding. If she doesn't agree, I can't come out today."
"...How did grandma know that?"
"I don't know, maybe he recognized your voice?" Han Zhiyao patted Li Ziyan's butt. The soft and bouncy touch made him reluctant to let go, but Li Ziyan held his wrist. "Okay, don't think too much, everything will be fine. Stay with me to sleep for a while. I missed you so much these days and haven't slept well..."
Han Zhiyao must have been really exhausted, as he closed his eyes before he could finish his words. Li Ziyan looked at Han Zhiyao's cheek in the dim moonlight, a smile on his lips, raised his hand, touched Han Zhiyao's cheek, and kissed Han Zhiyao's lips.
"Good night, Brother Zhiyao."
He slept until dawn. When Little Stone pushed the door open, he wiped his eyes, unable to believe what he saw. If Li Ziyan hadn't quickly sat up and gestured to him, he would have screamed out loud.
Li Ziyan put his finger in front of his mouth and smiled at Xiao Shitou. His right hand comforted Han Zhiyao who was sleeping on the bed, "Keep your voice down. Prepare some light porridge and vegetables."
"Yes." Little Stone nodded, put down the basin, quickly left the room and closed the door.
Li Ziyan glanced at Han Zhiyao, whose eyelashes were fluttering on the bed, and supported himself on Han Zhiyao's pillow with one hand, just looking at him.
