Chapter 265 Henpecked
In May, the weather gradually becomes hotter.
At noon, everyone had no appetite and ate light meals. Because of Zhao Lan's arrival, Su Ruojin did not go down to the fields to look after her precious peppers. The two of them were very close, either reading together or sitting in the Fengyu Pavilion drinking tea and appreciating the scenery.
The envious boys and girls were all jealous. Zhong Wanhui's uncle Zhong Chengcan said, "The young prince is usually such a cold person, how come he has so much to say to the young lady?"
Ning Ning interrupted immediately, "The young prince is not talking, it's Ah Jin who talks too much."
Wen Shaoxu said, "If no one listens, then no one will talk. Otherwise, a young lady like Madam Su Er wouldn't keep nagging."
As expected, she is a young lady who will listen to the key points. "Brother Shao Xu, what do you mean by this?"
Young Master Wen, who was innocently implicated, immediately denied it and changed the subject, "It's nothing, I just said it casually. Ah, the weather is really good today, Qilang, let's go hunting in the mountains. Let's catch a few more rabbits today, and let Madam Su Er make us a cold rabbit dinner in the evening."
Last night, because Prince Zhao came, he didn’t eat enough and wanted to eat more.
They fought together and came down from the battlefield together, but why are they the same age? The other has a beautiful wife by his side, while he is still alone. Ning Qilang couldn't stand this dog food. He didn't see it, but he envied it.
"Let's go hunting."
When the two younger nephews of the Ning family, Ning Yiqian and Ning Yan'en, heard this, they shouted with joy. They were the younger, one was twelve and the other thirteen years old, and had never been to the battlefield with General Ning, but they had learned the Ning family's sword, spear and stick techniques, and had been to the border and stayed in the military camp, so they could be considered half soldiers. They had been feeling bored in Beijing all the time, and they were very happy when they heard about going to hunt rabbits.
I'll follow right away.
Wen Shaoxu and Zhong Chengcan followed immediately.
They went back to the house to change into their clothes, but saw Fan Yanjia standing still in the corridor. "Ajia, don't you want to go hunting with us?"
Fan Yanjia really wasn't interested in hunting. He smiled and said, "I rode a horse all day yesterday and haven't recovered yet. My legs are still a little sore, so I won't go up the mountain to join in the fun."
Ningning snorted coldly: "You are so delicate. I am afraid you don't know how to hunt." After that, she raised her chin high, pulled the person away.
He didn't want to eat dog food, and he couldn't stand in the corridor any longer. Fan Yanjia turned around and went back to his room to rest. The capital city was half a day's walk from here, and he had to ride a horse all the way, from morning to night. He didn't ride often, so he hadn't recovered yet and had to catch up on his sleep.
Everyone left. Ningning glanced at Feng Yuting who was still looking unhappy, and pouting in the direction where Fan Yanjia left. Since this guy didn't go hunting, she might as well go and bother him.
She said to the servant who was looking after Hui, "Take good care of Hui Niang."
"Yes, Ning Niang."
Turning around, Ningning, who had been serious just now, immediately switched to the appearance of a heartless girl, humming a little tune to annoy people.
The nanny sighed and saw the eldest girl was about to step forward, but she pulled her back. "Madam said that there are no restrictions here. Hui Niang can stay as long as she wants. We can just stand aside and watch."
"Okay." The eldest girl Qiao Qiao hid in the corner of the corridor and quietly watched the little master who was sitting in the corridor enjoying the cool air.
Zhao Lan found that all the annoying people behind him had left. He could finally put his arm around the young lady's shoulders, and the two of them sat by the fence of the pavilion to enjoy the cool breeze.
"Brother Jin, I want to divert the creek to the farmhouse to make a pond and plant lotus, but I have to grow vegetables and run the farmhouse at the same time, so I don't have time to do it. When it's done, we can sit by the pavilion and fish. It's so fun, don't you think?"
Of course.
Zhao Lan agreed with everything and nodded.
I ran around all day yesterday. In order to see Ajin earlier, I woke up early in the morning. So I sat with the young lady to enjoy the breeze. It worked as I wished. I felt very relaxed and wanted to sleep as soon as I relaxed.
As he listened, Zhao Lan lowered his head on the young lady's shoulder and squinted unconsciously.
The head resting on her shoulder, leaning against each other, the body temperature slowly became hotter. Su Ruojin moved her shoulder, and found that the other party didn't move. She paused, moved again, and found that the other party didn't move either.
"Brother Jin...Brother Jin?" She called out twice in a low voice, turned her head and looked at Zhao Lan who was leaning on her shoulder. Her long eyelashes cast a shadow on his sleeping face.
It turns out he fell asleep.
Su Ruojin was just about to reach out and move his head away, ready to ask Shuangrui to wake him up and go back to sleep.
As soon as I stretched my hand in front of him, my palm seemed to touch his long eyelashes. I heard that he didn't sleep well, and he finally fell asleep, so I let him sleep like this?
Su Ruojin leaned against the fence and blocked his head with her hands to prevent Zhao Lan from sliding off her shoulders.
The wind in May blows softly, and even as the cicadas begin to chirp and insects chirp in the grass, the moment becomes even more tranquil and peaceful, with both body and mind at peace.
Zhong Wanhui found the two of them sitting together with their heads resting on each other's shoulders very strange. She tilted her head slightly and looked at them, as if there was some difficult problem that puzzled her.
The weather was hot and he was feeling listless. Fan Yanjia returned to his room and wanted to take a nap. However, just as he came in and washed his face, the young lady stood at the door. His servant reported, "Young Master, Miss Ning is here."
Fan Yanjia: ...I heard that the young lady of the Ning family is very aggressive. Sure enough, in the middle of the day, why did she come to his place instead of taking a nap?
He didn't want to receive them, and stretched out his hand to close the door, but the young lady stopped him with her hand, "Young Master, we are all polite people, don't force me to be rude."
"What do you mean?" Fan Yanjia snorted coldly and used force to close the door.
The young lady was the daughter of a general, and she was well trained. She used all her strength to hold on, and the door could not be closed.
"Whether you like it or not, I'm going to come in and sit down and chat with you."
Fan Yanjia almost swore when he saw the young lady swinging her fists. He then thought of the nephews of the Ning family who went up the mountain to hunt. He, a weak scholar, could not beat so many people. Okay, a real man must be able to bend and stretch.
Fan Yanjia let go.
Ning Ning succeeded, her eyebrows almost flew off with joy, she put her hands behind her back, walked into the room, looked around, "Is it similar to my room?"
Fan Yanjia didn't know that the young lady was just trying to find something to say, so he sneered, "Aren't all the rooms in the inn the same? Do you think this is your home? You can decorate it however you want."
The atmosphere was full of hostility from the start. He sat down first without any courtesy. In order to drive away the customer, he even took a book to read. This was exactly the same as driving away the customer by lifting the teacup and sliding the tea lid.
Ning Ning didn't understand, but she just liked to go against him, so she pretended not to understand and sat down shamelessly, "Come in as a guest, don't you even have a cup of tea?"
Fan Yanjia's servant Qingfeng hurriedly served tea and water, one cup for each person.
Ningning took it with a smile. It was hot and she was really thirsty, so she picked up the glass and drank.
When she lowered her head, Fan Yanjia rolled her eyes. She looked like a little tigress. Whoever marries her in the future will definitely be known as a henpecked person.
