Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 17 Buying Tea
"Husband!"

Dong Shuzhen finally came out of the room.

She first stuck out her head, yelled, and then her whole body came out.

Holding the hem of her skirt in one hand, she trotted over with small steps.

Xia Wu followed.

"Husband, do you see anything different about me today?"

Dong Shuzhen is petite, a head shorter than Zhu Xiuyue.

She raised her head and asked with a proud and excited look.

Zhu Xiuyuan twitched the corner of his mouth, wasn't he just putting on makeup and combing his hair into a nice bun?

It was like this yesterday, it was like the day before yesterday, and it's still like this today...
There is no difference!

Zhu Xiuyuan hesitated.

Even though Zhu Xiuyuan is an otaku, he still knows that when a girl comes to you and asks you what is different about her today.

This girl either had her hair done, put on some kind of makeup, or wore a new outfit...

Anyway, it’s just different from before.

Zhu Xiuyuan is still a homebody, but he also stands out from the group of straight men who "can only judge whether a girl wears makeup by looking at her lipstick."

But... Zhu Xiuyuan stared at her for a long time, but didn't see any difference.

He wanted to say "nothing different", but facing her expectant eyes, Zhu Xiuyuan didn't want to spoil her interest.

The key point is that Zhu Xiuyuan doesn't want to admit that he is a straight man!
He actually understands women very well!

But he looked at it for a long time and couldn't see any difference... Helpless, he could only look at Qiu Wen for help.

Qiu Wen was confused and looked at Zhu Xiuyuan blankly, thinking to herself, why are you looking at me?

Zhu Xiuyuan pursed his lips and looked at Xia Wu again.

Xia Wu not only has many clever ideas, but is also smarter.

Xia Wu saw that her uncle couldn't say anything for a long time, so she touched her ears with her hands.

I wish Xiuyuan understood in seconds.

He first cast an approving look at Xia Wu, and then looked at Dong Shuzhen's ears...

"My lady got a new pair of earrings today!" Zhu Xiuyuan smiled and flicked them with his fingers.

"Ah, my husband has noticed it!"

She tilted her head excitedly and showed Zhu Xiuyuan the earring on one side.

He gently held the earring and said with a smile: "Husband, does it look good? My sister gave this to me yesterday. It is very expensive!"

Zhu Xiuyuan smiled and said: "It looks good, it looks good."

……

At the entrance of the mansion, the housekeeper has already made preparations, and several carriages are waiting here.

In addition to the housekeeper, there were also two stewards from the Dong family.

Dong Yi and Dong Er.

As soon as Zhu Xiuyuan saw the two of them, his gaze turned into a hook, hooking them instantly——

The vengeance of beating Sap has not been reported yet!
These two boys have been avoiding Zhu Xiuyuan every day. Hey, he shouldn't be able to avoid him now.

Dong Yi and Dong Er lowered their heads and hid behind the housekeeper without saying a word, pretending to be transparent... In addition, there were several other servants.

And more than a dozen strong men.

Although these strong men were wearing casual clothes, they were actually Yamen Prefecture soldiers sent by their father-in-law to protect them.

My father-in-law, Dong Cheng, was the official recorder of Jiangzhou Prefectural Government and joined the army. He was the immediate superior of the soldiers.

Taking advantage of the convenience of transferring positions, there is no problem at all in dispatching more than ten state soldiers to do some private affairs.

……

It’s not that far from Fuliang County.

They traveled all the way east. After leaving the city, they changed boats, crossed the mouth of Poyang Lake, and arrived at the garrison town of Hukou.

Zhu Xiuyuan heard from Xia Wu that there was a royal palace in the Hukou garrison town, and a very powerful and terrifying prince lived there...

That evening, the group arrived at Duchang County.

For such a short distance, they walked for a whole day...

This is all because of the existence of Dong Shuzhen.

In addition to being restless in the carriage, she was also surprised by the scenery outside.

In addition, when I see something beautiful, interesting, and delicious, I even want to stop...

In this way, the itinerary will naturally be slow.

But Zhu Xiuyuan didn't care, just treat it as a trip. He actually wanted to walk around.

……

In Duchang County, in a certain inn.

"Oh, I'm so full!"

Dong Shuzhen touched her slightly bulging belly and slumped comfortably on the chair.

Looking at the large table of delicious food, there was still a lot left, but she was already powerless.

When she went out to "play", her mood and appetite increased exponentially, and she felt very happy.

Xia Wu had also finished eating and was also slumped on the chair, her eyes rolling around, looking smart.

But Qiu Wen was still fighting, holding a chicken leg in both hands and chewing until her mouth was full of oil.

Zhu Xiuyuan drank the last sip of soup, stood up and said, "Madam, you should take a shower and wash yourself first, and then go back to your room to sleep. I'll go find the housekeeper to discuss something."

"Good husband." Dong Shuzhen slumped on the chair without any image, with a smile on her lips.

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded, and after taking two steps, he saw Qiu Wen also getting up and following.

There are still rice grains in the corners of the mouth that have not been wiped clean.

"Qiu Wen doesn't need to follow, you go to sleep first." Zhu Xiuyuan ordered.

"Oh, okay, uncle!" Qiu Wen nodded obediently, like a chicken pecking at rice.

After finishing speaking, Zhu Xiuyuan opened the door and left.

Dong one, Dong two, hehe.

These two guys who beat him to sap.

It's time to settle accounts with them.
