The girl who wears fast

Chapter 1092 Promoted to a Concubine's Loyal Maid (12)

Shi Chu was making buns at home, when he heard someone knocking on the door, he wiped his hands with a clean towel beside him, and went to open the door.

Holding the empty water bottle, Zhu Yanli stared blankly at Shi Chu's unveiled face.

When Shi Chu saw him standing stupidly at the door, he asked, "Will you stand there and help me guard the door? Why don't you come in soon?"

Only then did Zhu Yanli step into the door, he said with some hesitation: "Your face..."

"What's wrong with my face?" Shi Chuyi touched her face and realized that she was not covered with a scarf. She made buns at home, so naturally she didn't need to cover up the scars on her face. She didn't think about it when she just opened the door. So at this moment, Zhu Yanli saw it, but when she saw it, she saw it, and it was meaningless for her to cover it up now, so she simply broke the jar and said frankly, "Don't worry, I did get infected before. The disease was prevalent in the capital for a while, but it healed early, and now there are only scars left that have not been healed, and it will not be transmitted to you."

"No, no, I'm not worried about this..." Zhu Yanli blushed and shook his hands again and again. In fact, he didn't think the faint scars on Shi Chu's face were ugly. Instead, he thought her facial features were very beautiful, with red lips and white teeth. Qiong nose and cherry lips, the little scars on her face that have been lightened a lot are like stars in the sky, dyeing her face with a strange beauty.

"What did you come to see me for?" Shi Chu asked him.

"Ah, I'll return the water bottle to you, thank you for taking care of me yesterday." Zhu Yanli finally remembered the business, and hurriedly returned the empty water bottle in his hand to Shi Chu.

"Are you making buns?" He saw that there were still a lot of bun skins and buns left on the table, so he rolled up his sleeves and said to Shi Chu, "I can also make buns, why don't I help you?"

Shi Chu was very surprised, she thought he was a scholar who would never touch his fingers, so she said, "You know how to make buns? Don't you pay attention to a gentleman who cooks far away?"

Hearing her words, Zhu Yanli couldn't help but chuckled, and said: "A gentleman stays away from the kitchen. It doesn't mean that a gentleman should not go to the kitchen, and I don't think I am a gentleman. I have been dependent on my mother since I was a child, and my mother has to support me. It's already very hard, how could I just watch her work hard every day and not help? That would be unfilial. I have been used to doing laundry and cooking since I was a child, otherwise wouldn't I have to eat and wear after my mother passed away?"

Shi Chu suddenly remembered that when he sent him home yesterday, he did find that although his house was empty, it was indeed cleaned very cleanly. It was obvious that he was not a sloppy person.

This made her have a better impression of this scholar. After all, many scholars nowadays, even if they are poor students, even if their families are poor and only rely on their mother and wife to earn money for their studies, they would not stretch out their hands to do some housework. The burden of the wife, blindly thinking that these are things that women should do, as a man should not be contaminated, so it is natural to oppress wives and mothers, this kind of scholar is really contemptible.

But Zhu Yanli didn't have such pedantic and hypocritical thinking, it has to be said that this did make Shi Chu have a slight liking for him.

"Then you come and help." Shi Chu was no longer polite to him.

Zhu Yanli went to wash his hands, and when he came out, he started to help Shi Chu make buns, probably because he was a scholar, even if he was making buns, his movements were very gentle and elegant, as if what he was holding was not bun skins or bun traps, but pen, ink and paper Like inkstone, just the movement of making buns is pleasing to the eye.

Shi Chu was double-minded, while making buns, he looked at Zhu Yanli's hands with his eyes. Zhu Yanli's hands were very beautiful, because the skin was too white, the blood vessels on the back of the hands were slightly exposed, and those ten fingers were even more beautiful. Slender as jade, any hand control can't help but feel the urge to move.

Shi Chu kept staring at his hands, but didn't realize that Zhu Yanli's movements had become slower and more rigid. At this moment, his earlobes and neck were already dyed a touch of red, and his pretty thin lips were pursed. Tightly, the movement of wrapping the buns became more and more awkward - Shi Chu's staring eyes were too hot, even if he wanted to pretend he didn't notice it.

In the end, being stared at by Shi Chu was so unbearable, Zhu Yanli had no choice but to ask: "You, what are you looking at? Don't tell me my buns don't look good?"

When Shi Chu heard his words, he quickly said, "No, your buns are well wrapped."

"Then why do you keep staring at me?" Zhu Yanli asked with the enthusiasm on his face.

"I look at your hands. Your hands are so beautiful. Are all scholars' hands like this? Is your hand like soft?" Shi Chu said carelessly.

"Of course not!" Zhu Yanli blushed so much that he was about to bleed, but he said to Shi Chu with a straight face, "Hands like soft Yi describe a woman's hands as slender, soft and tender. My hands are not slender at all, and they are Not soft, tender..."

"Oh, I haven't read any books, I don't know these things, I thought that men and women's hands can say that? Thanks to you for telling me." Shi Chu smiled and said nonsense, thinking that it would be quite interesting to tease the little scholar , "Then your hands are so beautiful, how do you describe them?"

Zhu Yanli's face became hotter and hotter, and he stammered, "Man, man's hand, yes, what's so good, is it good-looking..."

"Your ones are really pretty." Shi Chu praised him without hesitation.

"Don't talk nonsense." The expression on Zhu Yanli's face became more serious, trying to show his upright and serious side, "Girl, be more reserved."

"I said that because I told you. I wouldn't say that to others. What's the point of being reserved? Are you one of those pedantic old men?" Shi Chu said unhappily.

"Of course I'm not..." Sensing Shi Chu's displeasure, he quickly explained, "Then, let me tell you how to describe a man's hands as good-looking, shall we? Just be as slender as jade? Slender and strong?"

"Pfft!" Seeing his seriousness, Shi Chu struggled to find adjectives for his hands, and couldn't help laughing. This little scholar is so interesting that people can't help but want to tease him.

Seeing that the little scholar's face was getting hot, Shi Chu quickly said: "Okay, let's stop talking, we have to wrap the buns quickly, otherwise it will be too late to open the stall today."

"Okay." The little scholar replied softly, and he really sped up the movements in his hands. He is indeed a person who is used to doing housework, and his movements are very neat. After Shi Chu stopped staring at him, he felt much more at ease, and the buns were wrapped neatly. Fast and beautiful.

Thanks to the cooperation of the two, the steamed buns were quickly finished. Shi Chu only steamed two baskets of steamed buns at home, and pushed the rest to the street with a small cart, selling them while steaming them. It was fresh and convenient.
