Chapter 45 Coquetry
After dinner, the snacks from the dining room were delivered to Qinqiu Zhai.

Jade snow crisps, buttered abalone, and perilla paste are all delicately made.

The room was silent—both were focused.

One is focused on reading official documents, and the other is focused on eating.

Anyway, Brother Si needs her to stay in the house.

Whether it's because she wants to use her as a human-shaped sachet, or for other reasons...

It's all good.

Gu Yaoyao quietly chewed the buttered abalone, feeling a little tired, took a sip of tea.

Buttered abalone, also known as dripping crispy abalone, is a snail-like sweet food made of ghee, similar to butter decoration, which melts in the mouth and is very delicious.

When making this dim sum, you need to pinch the time - you have to send it over as soon as it is ready, otherwise it will be left for a little longer, and the taste and flavor will not be as good as when it was just made.

There is also perilla paste - this is actually a medicinal food, made of perilla seeds, rhubarb and so on.

The perilla paste sent by the dining room was made relatively thin, and contained a lot of water in it. Gu Yaoyao ate it mouthful with a spoon. The smooth paste slid from the tip of the tongue to the mouth of the throat, feeling similar to jelly.

Q bomb Q bomb.

She took one bite after another, and soon, the bottom of the small bowl of perilla paste was drained, revealing the bottom of the white porcelain bowl.

The fourth elder brother casually glanced down and saw Gu Yaoyao sitting beside him, the small bowl in his hand was already empty.

He couldn't help chuckling, reached out and took the small bowl from her hand: "Okay, this thing should not be eaten too much."

Gu Yaoyao opened her eyes wide and nodded.

Seeing that the corner of the little girl's mouth was still stained with perilla ointment, the fourth elder brother raised his hand in a strange way, but he didn't feel disgusted, and gently wiped it off for her.

Su Peisheng happened to personally deliver the tea to the door. Seeing this scene, his feet froze.

He has been with the master for a long time, but he has never seen such a move towards the women in the backyard.

……

The taste of perilla paste is bitter and bitter, with a special smell.

The fourth elder brother got some on his fingertips—probably because he didn't like the smell, he frowned imperceptibly, and casually took out a small porcelain bottle from the bookcase next to him.

Then uncork the bottle and put it on the table.

Under the light, the small porcelain vase glowed with a white and warm light.

Gu Yaoyao took a look and felt familiar.

She remembered, isn't this the fragrance she gave Si elder brother a while ago.

At that time, the fourth elder brother accepted it, but he didn't see much liking on his face.

Didn't expect him to carry it with him all the time.

Gu Yaoyao was a little surprised.

Noticing the little girl's gaze, the fourth elder brother glanced over indifferently, then followed Gu Yaoyao's gaze and landed on Xianglu on the table.

His eyes froze slightly, and he casually stretched out his hand, and moved the small porcelain bottle aside.

Gu Yaoyao: ...

Su Peisheng took advantage of this moment to bring in the tea, and saw that the fourth elder brother had changed his lazy posture, no longer sitting upright as before, but relaxed a little, leaning on the back of the chair.

Su Peisheng put down the teacup, and immediately took a cushion for the master to put on his back.

He knew it well - the master had always been diligent, and whenever he put on such a pose, it meant that he was actually a little tired.

It's about time, it's time to rest.

Su Peisheng walked to the door lightly, and told Dailan in a low voice that the hot water for washing should be prepared.

In the room, Gu Yaoyao obediently put down the perilla ointment, and picked up another piece of Yuxue crisp.

Hei Hei stared at the side, stepped forward, smelled the Jade Snow Crisp, then walked to the side uninterested, and lay down lazily.

Just as Gu Yaoyao brought the Yuxue crisp to his mouth, when he raised his eyes, he saw that the fourth elder brother was looking at her again—it seemed to be interesting to see her eating deliciously.

Gu Yaoyao thought for a while, her brows and eyes were bent, and she showed a sweet smile. She stretched out her hand and sent the Yuxue crisp to the lips of the fourth elder brother, with a soft voice: "Let's eat together!"

Su Peisheng couldn't hold back at the door, and even let out a low laugh, but was swept over by the fourth elder brother's eyes coldly.

Su Peisheng immediately lowered his head.

The fourth elder brother knew that the little girl was a half-fool, so he pressed her hand back patiently, and said calmly: "Master reads, you eat by yourself."

His long and slender fingers had distinct knuckles, and he gently pushed her hand, and as they intertwined, the fragrant fragrance from the little girl's sleeves also lingered into his palm.

Gu Yaoyao looked at him with bright eyes: "When the master finishes watching, let's eat together."

She happily lowered her head, put the Yuxue crisps back on the porcelain plate next to her, and raised her finger to her lips, saying solemnly to the kitten jumping up and down next to her: "Heihei, don't touch it. "

The little black cat seemed to be very human, and seemed to understand this sentence. It became honest all of a sudden, and sat obediently on the spot. It just swept its tail lightly and stared at the fourth elder brother. , and turned back to stare at Gu Yaoyao.

Gu Yaoyao raised her hand, yawned a little, sat down obediently on the small embroidered pier again, then stretched out her hand to hold her chin, and closed her eyes slightly.

The fourth elder brother stared at Gu Yaoyao for a moment, then reached out and pinched the back of her neck: "Sleepy?"

The little girl hugged his arm bonelessly, nodded aggrievedly, and then shook her head again.

Her hand went down his sleeve, hooked one of his fingers, and shook it coquettishly, with a delicate and soft voice: "But Yaoyao wants to stay with you."

Her soft palm is also fragrant.

The fourth elder brother stared at her for a moment, then suddenly reached out and patted her side.

Don't look at the little girl who is usually dull and dull, but this time she became smart and quick - she immediately stood up, hugged Xiao Xiudun happily, and moved to a place that couldn't be closer to his seat.

Almost snuggled up beside him.

Seeing the little girl raised her face and smiled at herself, although it was a silly smile, her eyes were shining brightly.

It was as if she could only see him.

……

A gust of night wind blows through the window panes. It is early autumn, but the wind is as gentle as a spring breeze.

After a cup of tea, the servants had already brought the prepared hot water. As soon as Su Peisheng arrived at the door, he looked under the lights—Miss Gu just leaned on the fourth elder brother's shoulder like this.

Eyes closed as if asleep.

The fourth elder brother looked down at the official documents, his handsome face showed no expression.

He actually let Gu Shi rely on him like this.

A piece of his clothes was also held tightly in Gu's hands, and he was entangled with the brush strokes.

Su Peisheng coughed slightly, walked over lightly, afraid of waking Gu Yaoyao, and lowered his voice: "Master, tonight..."

The fourth elder brother raised his eyes and stopped him instantly with his gaze: "Bring me some water."

"Send water" means that he will not leave tonight.

Just stay in Qinqiuzhai.
