Yu Chuxi's face looked a little better, but only a little.
Although he felt that he was not so unable to tell whether the person in front of him was sincere or not, what if this person was really so bad and disguised himself to this extent?
And what the other party had done in the past was not completely groundless.
Thinking of this, Yu Chuxi couldn't help but glare at him.
But what Yu Chuxi didn't know was that when his eyes were wide open, he wasn't completely angry, but instead had a hint of red in the corners of his eyes, so his glare didn't seem fierce, but rather had a different kind of charm in it.
Xie Shu cleared his throat and realized that the one who made her husband angry was not someone else but herself.
Xie Shu couldn't help but slow down his voice and asked in a low voice: "My dear, what happened?"
Yu Chuxi's lips slightly opened, but he gritted his teeth again in anger.
Yu Chuxi didn't know what to say. He couldn't say, "I sent people to investigate you before, and I heard that you had a childhood sweetheart, and you had a secret meeting with him?"
It was too undignified to say such words. Thinking of the agreement he had made with the other party before, Yu Chuxi couldn't say it.
After all, he and Xie Shu did not have that kind of relationship, and could not withstand such questioning.
Xie Shu didn't expect that her husband, who was always outspoken, was unwilling to speak about this matter. What exactly was it about him?
Xie Shu kept it in mind, but since Lang Jun didn't want to talk about it now, Xie Shu didn't want to make him do something he was unwilling to do. But he couldn't let Lang Jun continue to be sulking because of him, right?
Xie Shu thought for a moment and whispered, "My dear, shall we eat first?"
This time, Yu Chuxi couldn't help but glare at him. She was almost angry to death, but he was still thinking about eating.
But Yu Chuxi changed his mind and realized that he had seen Xie Shu staying in the study all day long in the past few days.
Although Yu Chuxi could not go to school like men, the imperial examination was a big deal and everyone knew it. Yu Chuxi also knew how difficult it was.
Some people waste their entire lives, and even after studying until their hair turns white, they still cannot pass the imperial examination to become a juren.
Some people are in their forties or fifties, have spent all their wealth, and are still nothing more than a student.
Such incidents were common, and proved how torturous the imperial examination system was.
Yu Chuxi saw that Xie Shu was extremely knowledgeable, but he was not arrogant and was able to concentrate on studying for the imperial examination. He was happy that he had such an ambition, but at the same time he couldn't help thinking:
If this goes on, I don’t know if my body can bear it?
Therefore, Yu Chuxi frowned and thought for a while, and finally nodded and said: "Then let's eat first."
Xie Shu felt relieved when he saw that Yu Chuxi didn't seem as angry as before.
For some reason, he had never felt so nervous before when he saw his husband so angry just now.
When the maids brought all the dishes, Yu Chuxi had no appetite today and didn't even touch his favorite dishes.
Xie Shu knew that Yu Chuxi had something on his mind, and it would not be easy to reveal it for a while. But since it was about him, he had no idea what it was, so Xie Shu could only try to change the subject and said, "My dear, today's crystal meat is very delicious. My dear, please try it."
Crystal meat?
After Yu Chuxi noticed the dish that Xie Shu was pointing at, he found that the meat was indeed red and the skin was white, smooth and translucent. It was appropriate to describe it as crystal, but it was not called crystal meat.
He couldn't help but glance at the person in front of him and said, "Do all writers like to make up stories? This is clearly called Zhenjiang Yaorou, what crystal..."
Suddenly Yu Chuxi said nonchalantly: "You live in Huaiyang, how come you don't even know this?"
Seeing that Yu Chuxi was willing to pay attention to him, Xie Shu didn't think too much and replied casually: "I have never eaten this before..."
oh?
There was a hint of doubt in Yu Chuxi's eyes. This Zhenjiang Yaorou is extremely famous in Huaiyang cuisine, and it is not difficult to prepare. It can be found in nearby restaurants, the only difference is whether it is cooked authentically or not.
Xie Shu came to Jinling with his parents ten years ago. His family was not poor at that time. It was just that his parents became seriously ill in the past few years, which dragged down the family. But in these ten years, it shouldn't be possible that he hadn't even eaten a dish of Zhenjiang meat, right?
What's more, even if you have never eaten it, you should have heard of it and be able to name this dish.
Yu Chuxi was just taking note of this strange thing in his mind, when he saw Xie Shu pick up a piece of meat for him.
It turned out that Xie Shu saw that Yu Chuxi was still motionless, so he thought that he was still angry, and was afraid that he would not eat and get stomach problems due to hunger. After all, he saw that her husband did not exercise much on weekdays, and always felt that his body was weaker than others.
At this time, Yu Chuxi looked at Xie Shu with strange eyes. What was he doing? Using his own chopsticks to pick up food for him? How could they be so close?
However, Yu Chuxi did not refuse. He lowered his head and took a bite quietly. It seemed that the food cooked today was really better than usual.
After dinner, the two went upstairs to play chess as usual.
But Yu Chuxi was still obviously not in high spirits. Unlike before when the two were evenly matched, he was now losing ground.
But after Xie Shulian let him go several times, Yu Chuxi said angrily: "When you were with others in the past, did you also let them go like this?"
Xie Shu then realized that he had been too obvious in letting her win, but Langjun's question was easy to answer.
Xie Shu touched the tip of his nose and whispered, "When I played chess with others before, I never let anyone win."
After all, in modern times, where can you have so much free time and be able to find someone who shares the same interests as you to play chess together?
So Xie Shu's chess skills were actually learned from books and honed through actual combat with the computer.
As for the computer, why do we need it?
Hearing what Xie Shu said, Yu Chuxi suddenly felt happy holding the chess piece. So, he only let himself win?
That makes sense...
Seeing Yu Chuxi finally getting serious, Xie Shu couldn't help but smile. When Langjun gets angry, it's really worrying...
Until the two of them finished playing chess, Xie Shu didn't hear any words from her husband. The other party seemed to have made up his mind and didn't mention it again.
But Xie Shu clearly saw how unhappy his husband was because of him, so how could he pretend to be blind to it?
What's more, the more Yu Chuxi was unwilling to speak out, the more it proved that there was a big problem.
After returning to the room, Xie Shu was still thinking about it.
Yu Chuxi did not go to inspect the property this afternoon, but stayed in the study. It is very likely that he met someone in the study and found out something.
Xie Shu couldn't help but look at Xi Mo. After all, he was not the original body. There were some things that he couldn't ask Xi Mo. He could only get the information he wanted from the other party by asking questions. But if he didn't have any idea about something, how could he get Xi Mo to speak?
At this moment, Xie Shu suddenly had an idea and felt that he seemed to have overlooked something before.
When Xi Mo saw his master staring at him with an unfathomable expression, his heart skipped a beat. What happened to his master?
Ever since Xie Shu moved to Tingyu Garden, Ximo has suddenly become more free. He no longer has to take care of his master in everything like before, and sometimes he even goes outside the mansion to run errands for his master. Now he only works in the study.
Moreover, the master had become much more tolerant and he no longer had to wait in the study all the time.
Ximo was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and was lively by nature. When his master had nothing to do, he would play with the other maids in Tingyu Garden. After a few days, he became familiar with them. When he was free, he would help pass messages and run errands...
Now Ximo thinks that he deserves to be beaten. The reason his master looks at him like this must be because he has been lax in the past few days. He should put his master first.
Xie Shu also remembered that Ximo had become close friends with the maids in Tingyu Garden in the past few days, so he asked, "Where were you this afternoon?"
When asked this, Xi Mo couldn't help but said with a sad face: "Master, Xi Mo knows he was wrong. I went to help Sister Feng He move something..."
However, Xie Shu only glanced at him calmly without getting angry: "Oh? Wasn't Feng He serving you at that time?"
Xi Mo nodded and said, "My dear, you met the person who was working in the front in the study this afternoon. I know that person too. He was specifically there to get information."
So that’s what happened. It happened before the original body.
Xie Shu's mind flashed, and he suddenly remembered something. In fact, Xie Shu had been very puzzled since he woke up, and that was why his original body fell into the Qinhuai River at that time.
The weather some time ago was much colder than it is now. Why would a man accidentally fall into the water there?
Since this question could not be asked to Ximo just now, Xie Shu decided to put it aside for the time being.
But now, Xie Shu had a vague premonition in his heart telling him that this matter was very important and he had to figure it out as soon as possible.
But in the end, Xie Shu looked at Xi Mo's puzzled and puzzled eyes and still endured it. It was not the right time, and he could not ask so rashly.
When falling asleep at night, Xie Shu couldn't help but think a lot. She wondered if her husband was still angry.
How can I explain all this when I don’t know the whole story?
If he said he knew nothing about his original body's past, would Lang Jun believe him...
Xie Shu was in mixed emotions. He was sleeping on a soft bed with canopies and the room was burning with soothing incense, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
At the same time, on the other side of the pepper wall, Yu Chuxi was also reluctant to close his eyes.
It is said that there is a kind of lovesickness, and two kinds of idle worries.
Early the next morning, Xie Shu sat up from the bed. Before he fell asleep last night, he thought of an idea and fell asleep very quickly. He woke up this morning feeling very energetic.
After Xie Shu finished washing up, she prepared to go next door to find her husband.
But before he knocked on the door, Feng He came out from the inner room. When she saw Xie Shu, she asked, "Mr. Xie, are you here?"
Xie Shu said, "I came to talk to you about something."
Feng He smiled upon hearing this and said, "My dear, you probably went to bed late last night and you won't be up for a while this morning. Is this urgent?"
There is certainly no rush for this matter.
So Xie Shu whispered, "Then wait until my husband wakes up, and then I'll look for him. Oh, don't tell him yet, so as not to disturb him."
After Xie Shu finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave. Feng He's eyes flashed and she said, "Xie Xianggong, wait a moment. Please go to your husband's study and wait for him first."
Although Feng He didn't know what happened to her husband yesterday, she was in a bad mood, especially this morning. She was in a bad mood when she woke up...
But something seemed different in front of Mr. Xie last night. It would be better to let Xie Shu stay with Mr. Lang for a while.
But Feng He was worried that Lang Jun didn't want to talk more with Xie Shu, so she asked him to go to the study and wait first, since Lang Jun would be there soon anyway.
After hearing this, Xie Shu agreed.
He came to the master's study on the first floor. The maid outside the door saw that it was him and did not stop him.
Xie Shu pushed the door open and walked in. She was planning to sit on a chair beside her and wait quietly, but then she saw a branch of peach blossoms in a celadon vase on her husband's desk.
Of course Xie Shu recognized that this was the branch he had held in his hand all the way back that day, but how could it still be so bright after a few days?
Xie Shu couldn't help but walk in to take a look. When he noticed the peach blossom branches, he was stunned for a moment.
He once read in a book that there was an ancient method of preserving flowers.
On the first day after picking the flowers, just burn the stems with fire, put them in a bottle and then put them in water. Then sprinkle water on the ground and cover them with reed mats. After repeating this for a few days, the moisture of the flowers can be kept from being lost for a long time.
So, did you use this complicated method?
Xie Shu lowered his eyes and watched the petals fall on his heart like rouge, leaving a vague red mark.
Xie Shu stood there for a long time before coming back to his senses.
At this time, Xie Shu saw a piece of crumpled thin paper pressed down by an inkstone on Lang Jun's desk. Originally, this would not attract Xie Shu's attention, but when he glanced at it, he found that there seemed to be his name on the paper.
