Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 871 Long Circle
Not long after, Dong Shuzhen saw that Zhu Xiuyuan was walking too slowly, so she turned back, naturally took his hand, and followed him step by step to step on ants slowly.

"Look, husband, the lotus pond in the garden is so beautiful at night!"

The restless Dong Shuzhen pointed to the lotus pond next to the corridor.

This corridor is built in the garden. There is a lotus pond near the corridor. It is already May and the lotus flowers are about to bloom. The lotus leaves are big and green. Under the light of lanterns and moonlight, they exude a charming green color. Light.

Very gratifying.

"Yeah." Zhu Xiuyuan nodded.

He stopped with her, walked to the edge of the corridor, and looked into the lotus pond.

"Quack!"

"Quack!"

At this time, frogs were heard chirping sparsely in the lotus pond.

Then Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuzhen saw at the same time that a green lotus leaf in the lotus pond shook violently.

"Jump, jump!"

Dong Shuzhen excitedly pointed at the lotus leaf, if Zhu Xiuyuan hadn't pressed her shoulder, she would have jumped up.

The light of the lantern, together with the soft moonlight, shone on Dong Shuzhen's body. Her charming and interested appearance seemed particularly beautiful to Zhu Xiuyuan.

A smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

But the next moment, Zhu Xiuyuan's smile stiffened.

Just listen to Dong Shuzhen say: "Husband, I want to go... I want to catch toads!"

She seemed to know that this request was too weird, so she looked at him weakly, as if if Zhu Xiuyuan said "no", she would immediately change her words, or immediately beg like a coquettish person.

"Catch a toad?"

Zhu Xiuyuan was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that your father-in-law will find out and say you?"

"No! No!"

Dong Shuzhen shook her head repeatedly and asked Zhu Xiuyuan to promise not to tell Dong Cheng about this...

Qiu Wen and Xia Wu behind them couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.

"It's getting late, let's go back to the east courtyard quickly."

"Oh!" Dong Shuzhen looked back at the lotus pond with a look of reluctance.

But she followed Zhu Xiuyuan to the east courtyard after all.

After passing through the hanging flower door, you can see the small courtyard in the east courtyard.

"Wow, our east courtyard hasn't changed at all. I originally thought... it would be overgrown with weeds."

Everyone walked in, walked through the small courtyard, and came to the small living room.

"Miss and uncle, where are you going to rest tonight?"

Qiu Wen and Xia Wu asked, turning their heads left and right, looking back and forth between the East Wing and West Wing.

The west wing is Dong Shuzhen's boudoir.

The east wing is Zhu Xiuyuan's residence.

Since Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuzhen shared a room only after they went to the capital, they used to live separately in Jiangzhou.

But this time is different from the past, which made the two maids have a difficult time.

"East Wing!"

"West wing room!"

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuzhen said at the same time.

They both want to go to each other's room.

But as soon as they finished speaking, they discovered the problem. The two looked at each other, and Dong Shuzhen smiled and said: "Then listen to your husband, we will rest in the west wing tonight."

"Eh!"

Qiuwen and Xia Wu are ready to go.

In fact, there is nothing to prepare. The room is cleaned every day, and all you need to do is replace the bedding and pillows with new ones.

After a while, they finished washing and walked into the west wing. Qiu Wen and Xia Wu exited the room after finishing their work and closed the door.

"Madam, let's take a rest first, and then have a nice walk around the house tomorrow." Zhu Xiuyuan yawned.

"Husband..." Dong Shuzhen stood still in the room, looking at him but he hesitated to speak.

"Well, what's wrong with you?" "Husband, my legs seem... weak."

"Little naughty boy!" Zhu Xiuyuan smiled and scratched the bridge of her nose, "Let me hug you for my husband!"

"Yeah!" Dong Shuzhen showed a smile on her face.

Zhu Xiuyuan picked her up by the waist, weighed her, and said with a smile, "My wife seems to be a little heavier."

He was doing it to make fun of Dong Shuzhen.

Because in his opinion, women all want to be lighter.

However, Dong Shuzhen is an ancient woman after all. After hearing Zhu Xiuyuan's words, her smile became even brighter and she said, "That's good. I've been eating a lot recently just to grow rounder as soon as possible..."

"Hmm? Oblong?"

"That's right, it's said in the books that a woman needs to be round and round to be beautiful, so she's more blessed, and it's also..."

"What?"

"It will also win your husband's favor."

Dong Shuzhen buried her face in his arms.

Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly realized.

Indeed, although this era has not reached the level of beauty in the Tang Dynasty, because most people in this era do not have enough to eat, if they can grow white and fat, it means that their family is well off.

Eat well, and other conditions will naturally be good.

In other words, it is less likely to get sick and the chance of early death is greatly reduced...

"My lady, you don't need to be deliberate. Just follow the old way. I don't care about these things as a husband."

Zhu Xiuyuan hugged her and bent over, placing her on the soft couch.

"Huh? My husband doesn't care about this!"

Dong Shuzhen didn't let go, her hands were still around his neck.

Zhu Xiuyuan simply fell down and lay opposite Dong Shuzhen. Dong Shuzhen held her arms around his neck, and he held his arms around her waist.

"That's right, my husband doesn't care about these things. The lady must not go crazy for the sake of pursuing the so-called perfect beauty... By the way, my husband heard that on the day of the expedition half a month ago, the lady vomited because of food accumulation?"

"Then... what do you want me to do...?" Dong Shuzhen was a little embarrassed.

"Natural is fine!"

Zhu Xiuyuan slid his hands on her shoulders, back and waist, and said with a smile: "My wife is doing well now. She is petite, and she feels like a little bird clinging to her when she is held by her husband. It's very good."

"Does your husband like how I am now?"

Dong Shuzhen was shocked, then happy.

Previously, she had been upset that she was not polished enough.

"Of course I like it. I can't put it down as my husband!"

Zhu Xiuyuan touched and pinched her body, while showing an intoxicated look on his face, showing with practical actions that he really couldn't put it down for her now.

Dong Shuzhen was very satisfied and her eyes narrowed to a slit.

Then they played a long game of rolling.

Hugging and chewing on each other again——

This process is essential.

Before they knew it, the night was already deep and they all fell into a deep sleep.

the other side.

In Dong Shuyu’s small courtyard.

Dong Shuyu didn't sleep for a long time.

When she moved to the capital before, not everything was moved to the capital. In fact, she still stored many old things in her small courtyard.

Toys from childhood.

To the poetry books that I have read and the manuscript paper for practicing calligraphy.

And when I grew up, I made some things with my own hands, such as hand-embroidered wedding dresses, etc.

These things are a growth history of Dong Shuyu.

But now, she has chosen a life path that is different from ordinary people. Looking at these things now, she is filled with emotions for a moment.
