The concubine was reborn, and the cold prince was made red in the face

There is a grape shelf in the east toilet of the small courtyard, and a rocking chair is placed under it. The chair is covered with thick cushions, and a fruit plate, tea and snacks are placed on the stone table next to it.

Zuo Xiangning sat in the rocking chair with her eyes closed, a small quilt covering her legs.

She swayed slightly, and the sunlight shone through the grape leaves on her face, flickering like a naughty child.

"It's time to eat." The man's voice was very soft, but it still startled her when it suddenly sounded next to her.

She opened her eyes, looked at the man and said, "I'm not hungry."

"After dinner, I'll ask the doctor to come and see if the straps can be removed." The masked man coaxed her and said, "I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow."

"Aren't you afraid of being chased?" Zuo Xiangning thought about the last killing, and her heart was still frightened, "I don't want to risk my life."

"As long as you are honest and don't always want to escape, we can be safe." The masked man said with a smile.

"Then I won't go out." Zuo Xiangning touched her arm that was still aching. She didn't want to get new injuries before the old ones healed.

"In the evening, shall I cook barbecue for you?" The masked man asked again: "I asked Ma Liu to buy a leg of lamb, and I will make mutton soup and roast the leg of lamb for you in the evening? Don't you like to eat dumplings? How about I make dumplings for you in the evening? Bar?"

"Did Bingyu tell you about my preferences?" Zuo Xiangning felt angry thinking of Bingyu's betrayal, "I am your hostage now, you don't need to be so concerned about me, let alone treat me like this good."

"Did you fall on your head? Can I be nice to you and make you happy if I hang you up and beat you every day?" The man looked at the sinister Zuo Xiangning, snorted coldly, and said: "You'd better not Be picky and be honest!"

After the man finished speaking, he turned and returned to the room.

When he reached the door, he turned back and said, "Why don't you come over quickly? What are you waiting for?"

Zuo Xiangning blinked twice and looked at him blankly.

Why does he train himself like this?

He first deceived and kidnapped him, and then hijacked him here. Is he still reasonable?

"Are you waiting for me to feed you? Or are you waiting for me to hold you?" Seeing that she still hadn't moved, the man's voice rose two points higher.

Zuo Xiangning stood up and walked into the room, sat down at the table, put two spoons of vegetable soup into the rice with a spoon, and started eating.

The man looked at the puppet-like woman and placed two pieces of ribs in her bowl.

Zuo Xiangning didn't look up, put the ribs beside the bowl, and continued to eat her soup rice.

"Eating bones is good for the bones." The man beside him couldn't help but say.

Zuo Xiangning picked up a piece of ribs and ate it.

The man gave her two more shrimps.

Zuo Xiangning speeded up and finished the rice with a spoon. There were two shrimps and a piece of ribs left in the bowl.

"What do you mean?" The man angrily put his chopsticks on the table, "Who are you looking at?"

Zuo Xiangning leaned on the back of the chair, glanced at the man's chopsticks calmly, and then raised her eyes to look at the man.

"I'm talking to you!" the man asked aggressively: "If you have any dissatisfaction in your heart, just say it! Don't act like you have been greatly wronged..."

"It's obviously your husband's anger, why did I become dissatisfied again?" Zuo Xiangning looked at the furious man and sneered: "I know that I am your hostage now, and I have no right to be dissatisfied..."

"Who are you talking about?" The man became more and more angry as he listened, interrupting her, "Did I take you as a hostage? I am here to provide you with good food and drink, but you are using up all my good intentions. Don’t you think it’s too much to treat it like a donkey’s liver and lungs?”

"I just don't understand. You have left Qingquan Temple now, why don't you let me go? If someone really does something bad for you, I will still be a burden to you. Why are you taking me with you?" Zuo Xiang Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll give you three thousand taels of silver, and you let me go, okay?"

"No!" The man said very bluntly: "When I want to let you go, I will let you go naturally. You don't need to command me!"

Zuo Xiangning breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you."

She stood up and sat on the lounge chair outside again. She rocked the rocking chair lightly, knowing in her heart that no matter what the reason was, this man would never let her go.

She really regrets it now. If she had known this, she might as well have followed her brother to the border, at least she would have been safe.

The man sat in the room and stared angrily at the woman outside.

He told himself in his heart, don't be angry, she just didn't know who she was, so she deliberately made herself angry like this.

But if he told her who he was, how would she treat him?

He had no confidence at all.

At night, Zuo Xiangning didn't even eat. After washing, she lay directly on the bed.

The man set up a fire in the yard outside and roasted the leg of lamb until it was sizzling with oil, and the aroma spread throughout the small yard.

Zuo Xiangning sat up and lowered the bed curtain, but she couldn't block the alluring fragrance.

"Mother Liu, this leg of lamb is a bit burnt when roasted. I don't like to eat it like this. You can give it to the doctor and groom in the front yard to try it." The masked man said regretfully: "Is there another leg of lamb? You Bring it to me and I’ll try baking it again.”

Zuo Xiangning pursed her lips and lay back on the pillow.

"Mother Liu, bring the pancakes you made and chop some green onions. This lamb leg is really good. Cut the meat into slices and roll it into pancakes. It will be delicious." The man's voice came in again.

Zuo Xiangning lay on the bed like a pancake, tossing and turning. Finally, she couldn't resist the temptation and sat up from the bed.

Why are you making things difficult for yourself?

You obviously want to eat, why do you pretend that you don’t want to eat, and show it to who?

She lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked to the door, and glared at the man in the yard.

"Are you up?" The man waved to her as if he had never been angry with her, "Come here and taste it to see how it's done and whether I need to add a little more salt."

Zuo Xiangning walked over to him and sat down.

The man used a knife to remove the outer layer of roasted mutton slices, rolled them up on the pancake, and handed them to her, "Try it."

Zuo Xiangning took it and took a big bite, with a satisfied smile on her face.

The man also chuckled and cut off a few more pieces of meat for her.

Zuo Xiangning ate four cakes in a row before stopping. Liu's mother brought her another mutton soup, "I've added spicy pepper and vinegar for you to try."

Zuo Xiangning drank two more bowls of mutton soup.

She rubbed her belly with satisfaction, stood up and said, "I'm full."

"Don't lie down yet, follow Mother Liu to the yard next door to pick some cherries to eat." The man said, "I think the apricot tree seems to be ripe, so let Xiao Zhuang go up to the tree and pick a few for the girl. "

Zuo Xiangning immediately became more energetic after hearing him ask her to go to another yard.

She glanced at the man who was still lowering his head while roasting mutton, and excitedly followed Mother Liu out of the gate of the courtyard.

After passing two doors, Zuo Xiangning's eyes suddenly opened up. It turned out to be a garden with hundreds of flowers blooming. She turned two more turns to the left along the gravel road, and two cherries full of red fruits appeared in front of Zuo Xiangning. Tree.

Only then did Zuo Xiangning realize that what she came in that night might just be a back door of the house.

The small courtyard where she lives is the most dilapidated, smallest and most remote courtyard in the house.

What was the purpose of this masked man who deliberately deceived her like this?
