Chapter 122 Da Huang has been collecting goods for three whole days.
The more Di Jiang spoke, the redder his eyes became. Tears welled up in his eye sockets and were about to burst out. His whole body exuded an air of grievance and pity.
Jiujiu sniffed, walked forward, took Dijiang's hand and said, "Brother Dijiang, in Jiujiu's heart you are..."
Before Jiujiu could finish her words, Dijiang suddenly interrupted her in horror, "Don't say it, don't say it."
Di Jiang was a little scared. He was afraid of hearing words that would hurt his heart, so he might as well not listen.
Jiujiu: “…”
Dijiang raised his head and looked up at the sky. When the tears in his eyes slowly disappeared and his emotions subsided and his rationality returned, he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about these bad things."
Jiujiu is still so young, what does he understand?
How could he, a man, argue with Jiujiu about these things? He even asked Jiujiu where he ranked in her heart? Was he there?
Jiujiu didn't understand these social matters at all, and certainly had never thought about them, let alone give the answer he wanted.
It was because he was too concerned and thought Jiujiu didn't care about him that he lost his mind and asked these ridiculous questions.
Dijiang comforted himself in his heart.
"Jiujiu, I will go and teach your cousin how to make jujube paste cake." Dijiang said solemnly, "As long as you ask, I will agree to anything."
Even if Jiujiu wanted the stars in the sky, Dijiang would find a way to build a ladder to help Jiujiu pick them up.
Jiujiu was a little confused.
[Brother Dijiang's face changes like the moon in July. ]
【It's sunny and rainy. 】
[Just now he seemed angry, but now he is fine again. ]
[A man's heart is like a needle in the seabed. Jiujiu doesn't understand it!]
When Dijiang went to teach Nanyuan how to make the fragrant date mud cake, Feng Caiwei suddenly appeared. She said to Dijiang earnestly, "Your Highness, can I help you?"
During the days when Jiujiu didn't come to see Dijiang, Feng Caiwei tried every means to enter the palace as a slave, and she also bribed the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was sent to serve in the Zhiguan.
Everyone in the palace thought that Feng Caiwei entered the palace as a slave to atone for her father's sins. Only Feng Caiwei herself knew that she came to the Zhiguan on purpose to get close to Dijiang and cultivate feelings.
She still wants to be on good terms with Dijiang.
It would be best if Dijiang could fall in love with her.
This way she will have a good life in the future.
Dijiang was very displeased when he saw Feng Caiwei roll up her sleeves and take the flour and dough from him. He glanced at Feng Caiwei and said, "I don't need you."
"Your Highness, I want to help you? I don't want you to work so hard? You should study hard. I can do the rough work."
"I can do that."
Feng Caiwei insisted on helping.
"If you really want to do something, why not go sweep the yard? The yard is waiting for you to sweep it."
Dijiang didn't like Feng Caiwei in the first place, and didn't want her to stay in the Zhiguan, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, the deployment of slaves in the palace was arranged by the Western Chu Internal Affairs Department.
As an outsider, he has no right to interfere.
"..." Feng Caiwei fell silent after hearing this.
If she went to sweep leaves, she would not be able to develop a relationship with Dijiang.
She didn't want to sweep.
Seeing Nan Yuanxiang went out to fetch water to wash her hands, Chuyang followed her, and Dijiang and she were the only ones left in the small kitchen.
She said boldly without any reservation: "Your Highness, I heard everything you said to the little princess just now even though I was sweeping nearby."
"I can see that you are very angry. You are angry because the little princess asked you to teach Nan Yuanxiang how to make date paste cake."
"You don't really want to, do you?"
"This date paste cake has a special meaning to you. You won't teach it to others easily, but the little princess is making things difficult for you."
"Because you are a hostage and imprisoned here, it is difficult to refuse the little princess, for fear of angering her and bringing yourself into trouble."
"But I'm not afraid, Your Highness. I can help you drive the little princess away and scold her to help you vent your anger. I'm not afraid of being beaten or offending the princess. I'm not afraid of anything. As long as it can make Your Highness happy, I'll do anything!"
Feng Caiwei said these words with great enthusiasm.
After saying this, she looked at Dijiang obsessively.
I thought Dijiang should be moved by her.
If a person is deaf and blind, he will definitely not be able to see that Feng Caiwei is pretending to care and will definitely be moved by Feng Caiwei.
But Dijiang won’t.
What kind of person is Dijiang? He can tell at a glance who is truly nice to him and who is just pretending to be nice to him.
Dijiang was very disgusted with Feng Caiwei's deliberate flattery and pretense of caring. It was not sincere at all and was too purposeful. He put down the noodles in his hand, came to Feng Caiwei, met Feng Caiwei's smiling eyes, and said, "What do you know?"
"How could I possibly be mad at the little princess?"
"You are so self-righteous!"
"Get down there and sweep the floor."
Dijiang had already reached the limit of his patience and was unwilling to endure it any longer.
He said without allowing any objection: "After you finish sweeping, go to the yard and kneel down to atone for what you just said."
"You are sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I cannot drive you out, but I have no problem forcing you to kneel."
Feng Caiwei was a little flustered when she saw that Dijiang was angry. She didn't say anything else, nor did she dare to disobey Dijiang. Instead, she bit her lip and nodded, "Yes, I'll go sweep the floor and kneel down."
But she was unwilling to give up. She clenched her fists tightly, and the joints turned slightly white because she squeezed too hard.
She couldn't understand why this happened?
Ever since she came to serve in this house, she has tried every means to please Dijiang, showing that she cares about Dijiang and is concerned about Dijiang, but why is Dijiang unmoved?
Dijiang has always been cold to her.
How exactly is she inferior to Feng Jiujiu?
Feng Caiwei just couldn't understand.
At this moment, she was sweeping the yard with a broom, and all the anger in her heart was vented on the broom. She almost broke the broom by poking it on the ground.
After finally finishing the sweep, she went to kneel in the yard again.
Jiujiu was playing with Dahuang. The man and the dog were very happy until they saw Feng Caiwei.
Jiujiu stopped smiling instantly.
[Why is Feng Caiwei here? ]
[In the book, she is the apple of Emperor Jiang's eye. She rose from a palace maid to the queen! Emperor Jiang likes her very much.]
[She is here now, Brother Dijiang won't fall in love with her, right? ]
[If Brother Dijiang falls in love with her, it will be terrible. For the sake of her future position, she will definitely instigate Brother Dijiang to destroy our Western Chu.]
【You can’t do that.】
Jiujiu came to Feng Caiwei in a hurry, observing her expression, trying to find evidence from her face that she and Dijiang had feelings for each other.
But no observation was made.
She was going to ask Dijiang.
Dahuang noticed that Jiujiu didn't like Feng Caiwei, so he took a very smelly pile of dog shit in the tree pit next to Feng Caiwei.
It has been collecting goods for three whole days.
The smell of dog shit is very pungent.
Feng Caiwei almost fainted from the stench.
Why was she so unlucky today? Not only did she offend Di Jiang, but Feng Jiujiu's dog also ran to her side and pooped such a stinky pile of shit? How many days had that lazy dog been accumulating shit?
so much?
Ahhh——
Feng Caiwei was so angry that she died.
She planned to think of a way to make Dijiang take the initiative to make friends with her.
What can we do?
