The next day.

Tao Yao was having breakfast with Lu Jiuyuan when a servant from another courtyard came over.

"Madam Lu, our fifth son is asking to see you."

Tao Yao was taken aback, "Who is the Fifth Young Master?"

Lu Jiuyuan also looked up at the next person.

Being stared at by him, the servant felt inexplicably panicked, and stammered, "Yes, it's the fifth son of our Nie family..."

When Tao Yao heard it, she understood and nodded, "It's the Nie family, so let him wait a while."

"Yes." The servant hurried away as if he had been pardoned.

Tao Yao finished eating quickly, and was about to stand up when Lu Jiuyuan held her hand, "Let's go together."

Tao Yao blinked, "Okay."

When the couple arrived at the front hall together, they saw a handsome young man sitting there nervously with his robes pulled.

"Who is he?" Tao Yao turned to look at Lu Jiuyuan suspiciously.

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, "Didn't he come to look for you? Don't you know?"

Tao Yao choked, pulled his sleeve and asked, "Are you unhappy?"

Lu Jiuyuan paused, then shook his head, "No."

Tao Yao heaved a sigh of relief, it was fine if he didn't.

She thought that Lu Jiuyuan was not happy that someone came to her.

She let go of his sleeve, walked in, and took a few glances at the boy sitting on the seat.

At first, he just seemed familiar.

But when she came to Linzhou City, she didn't see anyone, except for going to Nie's house yesterday, but she saw a lot of people.

Thinking of the Nie family, she suddenly realized.

No wonder she thought the other person looked familiar. Wasn't this young man the one who secretly looked at her and blushed when he was at Nie's house yesterday?
Just now the servant seemed to call him Fifth Young Master.

She glanced at him in surprise, what did he come to see her for?
We are not familiar with each other.

But everyone came to her door, so she couldn't ignore them.

Thinking about it, she called out, "Fifth Young Master Nie?"

Fifth Young Master Nie raised his head when he heard the sound, and when he saw that it was Tao Yao, his handsome face immediately turned red.

It took him a while to realize, and he stood up quickly, but his tone was a little stammering, "Tao, Miss Tao."

Lu Jiuyuan narrowed his black eyes.

Tao Yao looked at Fifth Young Master Nie curiously, "You came to see me, but what's the matter?"

Being watched by her, Fifth Young Master Nie was at a loss for a moment, then he remembered something, turned around, picked up a box on the table, and handed it to Tao Yao.

"This is Xu Ji's mung bean cake. Yesterday I saw that Miss Tao liked it very much. Today, I happened to pass by Xu Ji, so I bought a copy for you."

Tao Yao froze for a moment, and looked at him in surprise.

But when she saw his blushing and shy appearance, she vaguely understood his intentions.

This……

We only met once yesterday, isn't it?
Is she so attractive?
Seeing the box handed to her by the other party, she didn't dare to accept it for a moment.

Just as he was thinking about how to tactfully refuse the other party without hurting the other party's face, he saw a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, "Fifth Young Master Nie has a heart, and I will thank you on behalf of my wife."

Tao Yao was taken aback and looked at Lu Jiuyuan.

The man's complexion was not very good-looking, even a little gloomy.

She paused for a moment, her heart moved. Could it be because he was jealous?

Realizing this level, her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.

Will Lu Jiuyuan be jealous?

She was startled by her own thoughts.

But if not, why is his complexion so ugly, and why is he looking at Fifth Young Master Nie with hostility?

Noticing the way the girl looked at him right and wrong, Lu Jiuyuan paused, and a trace of discomfort flashed across Jun's face.

After listening to Lu Jiuyuan's words, Fifth Young Master Nie froze there.

It was also at this time that he noticed Lu Jiuyuan.

When he saw Lu Jiuyuan's appearance clearly and the powerful aura emanating from his body, he was startled.

This man is not an ordinary person at first glance, and the coercion emanating from him is frightening and breathless.

And what he said...

Fifth Young Master Nie was startled, and his eyes quickly dimmed when he looked at Tao Yao, "You, are you married already?"

"Yes. Fifth Young Master Nie, this is my husband." Tao Yao recovered and introduced him immediately.

Fifth Young Master Nie bowed to the two of them in despair, "I'm sorry, I still have something to do, so let's go first."

After finishing speaking, before the two of them could say anything, he left in a hurry.

Tao Yao: "..."

Lu Jiuyuan's face softened slightly, which seemed to be a sign of interest.

Tao Yao regained consciousness, turned to look at the box in his hand, swallowed and said, "This mung bean cake is delicious."

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, then suddenly raised his hand and gave Wu Ze the mung bean cake.

Tao Yao: "..."

"Master, is this for your subordinates?" Wu Ze took it in a daze, flattered.

"Yeah." Lu Jiuyuan nodded, "After eating, go buy another box."

Uze: "..."

He looked at the scorching sun outside, and then at the box in his hand.

Sure enough, the master was not so kind.

"Yes." He sighed in his heart.

Tao Yao looked at the pair of master and servant strangely, and couldn't help but said, "Don't bother, I can eat with Wu Ze."

Wu Ze nodded immediately when he heard the words, "Yes, my subordinates can't eat that much."

"No, this mung bean cake is not fresh at first glance, and I don't know when it was made. You will go to Xu Ji in person and buy a new box of fresh ones." Lu Jiuyuan said in a deep voice.

Uze: "..."

The box hasn't been opened yet, how did the master tell that the pastries are not fresh?
And it's not fresh, why give it to him?
Wu Ze's mood was not so happy in an instant.

Tao Yao felt a little baffled.

But when she thought of Fifth Young Master Nie just now, she vaguely understood something.

She took Lu Jiuyuan's hand, looked at him with a smile, but said to Wu Ze, "Wu Ze, do you smell sour vinegar?"

Wu Ze was taken aback, "The smell of sour vinegar?"

Tao Yao tapped Lu Jiuyuan with his chin.

Wu Ze understood instantly, and said in an exaggerated tone: "I can smell it, it smells so sour, and I don't know who is brewing vinegar?"

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him, then suddenly reached out and took the box from his hand, then turned around and handed it to Zhao Er, "Eat it."

Zhao Er was flattered, "Thank you, master."

Uze: "..."

How come the mung bean cake in your mouth can still fly?
Tao Yao laughed out loud.

Wu Ze looked depressed, "Master, since the mung bean cake is eaten by Zhao Er, the subordinates don't have to go there again, let Zhao Er go."

"Zhao Er wants to eat mung bean cake. I don't have time. Besides, your feet are faster than him. Go now." Lu Jiuyuan said unhurriedly.

Uze: "..."

No one is more miserable than him, right?

Others get the benefits, but he is the one who runs the errands.

Tao Yao comforted: "It doesn't matter, we will eat together after we buy the cakes."

Wu Zezheng was a little moved, and just about to nod, he noticed an oppressive glance.

He trembled and waved his hands hastily, "No, no, this subordinate is going to buy pastries now."

"Wu Ze is really diligent, and he is willing to complain." Tao Yao praised, then turned to Lu Jiuyuan and said, "You should reward him well."

Lu Jiuyuan nodded, "Ma'am is right, it really deserves a good reward."

Wu Ze, who had already walked outside the door, suddenly felt a chill go down his back, and even shivered Lingling.
