Is my wife farming today?

Chapter 270 Pay a little attention

Chapter 270 Pay a little attention
Dugu Xi lowered his head slightly, the tips of his ears were slightly red.

In fact, he had never paid any attention to these things, nor had anything similar happened to him before. He just happened to have dinner at the general's residence that day and heard her likes and dislikes, so he made a note of them.

Later, there happened to be a new cook in the Taifu's house. The cook who had been cooking for him went back to the countryside to recuperate due to illness. The new cook was the best at cooking fish, so he took the opportunity to ask about it. After a period of pondering, I found the reason why I refused to eat fish.

Hearing what he said, He Lanlian suddenly remembered that the last time he was in the palace, he seemed to have mentioned food taboos, but he had forgotten about it and did not take such a small thing to heart.

Now that it is brought up again, it is a judgment call.

As He Lanlian grew up, he only knew that a man was born in heaven and earth, and that he should stand upright and make great achievements. Such trivial matters were really not what he should worry about.

But it was precisely because he was not worried, but others were worried, that he seemed to understand something in an instant.

Why did she frequently reject her advances, and why did she regard this person as her true love?

It turned out to be just a trivial matter.

He Lanlian was not willing to lose.

Faced with his attacks and sarcasm.

"If His Highness He San had not managed to capture the Fourth Princess alive, Xiwei would have had a rare opportunity to travel around Rizhao leisurely. It is reasonable to prepare a generous gift and come to thank him. Unfortunately, he came in a hurry, and he may have lost etiquette. ." He was polite in his words, as if he really wanted to thank He Lanlian for this.

Dugu Xi followed the words slightly, stopped talking, just lowered his head and ate quietly.

He laughed angrily.

"Okay, let's eat quickly, the food is getting cold."

Dugu Xi calmly held down the hand that declined, not wanting her to stand up for him, "Everything should be thanked to His Highness He San."

According to what he said, he unintentionally brought them together, didn't he?
How did he come up with the idea of ​​preparing a gift to thank himself?
He Lanlian instantly felt that what he had heard in the past about how humble, polite, dignified and talented the No. 1 Young Master in Kyoto was was all lies and nonsense!
Isn't it better to be famous than to meet?
"I never thought this would help you!"

The engagement between Dugu Xiwei and Feng Qingran was announced before the war in Jincheng.

"I heard that Queen Jiyue has decreed a marriage for the four princesses. Mr. Dugu is not in the capital to prepare for the marriage. Why did he come to Rizhao?"

He Lanlian was stunned by the reply.

As soon as he said this, he couldn't help but laugh.

He Lanlian glanced at him with cold eyes. His posture was elegant and dignified, but his mouth was too sharp!
Yuqing ate quickly, put down the bowl and chopsticks with a thud, and took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

He Lanlian had heard about it a long time ago and thought it was a sweet talk between Lang Youqing and his concubine, but she saw him here. Didn't Ji Yue not allow men to go out at will? Why did he, the number one son of Kyoto, actually go on a long trip by boat?

"Thank me?" He Lanlian sneered at the sound, "I would like to hear what you want to thank me for?"

"Are you short of people around you?" he asked suddenly.

Decline was stunned for a moment, "Me?"

"Yeah, who else could it be besides you?" She glanced at Dugu Xi slightly and shook her head, "No shortage."

Yuqing exhaled in anger, "I'm not talking about the kind of service! It's just menial tasks like serving tea and pouring water. Are there any shortages of people?"

It makes sense for him to ask this. She refused to go out with him many times, but there were very few low-level servants around her. After all, she was also the second daughter of Yongchang Hou Mansion, how could she not even have any manners? How bad it is to go out and walk alone!
Dugu Xi put down the bowl and chopsticks slightly and asked calmly: "Master Yuqing, do you want to place the male slave next to you?"

Yuqing frowned, "How do you know my name?"

There were four people at the table, two of them were full of hostility towards Dugu Xiwei, and the atmosphere was slightly tense and stagnant.

He didn't mind, he just replied: "I pay a little attention to the people around her."

Just paying a little attention?
What he said sounded like a nameless oath of authority.

Yuqing asked: "I plan to stay with this male slave, can't I?"

The look on his face was a bit impatient.

Then he asked Dugu Xi slightly, "Do you have a special status that makes it difficult to keep it with you?"

"Yes, unless there is a way to remove the male slave mark on his face, it will only cause trouble for us. I didn't see clearly on the deck just now. This child doesn't look like someone from Jiyue Kingdom."

Yuqing's brows raised high, "There are marks on his face? Why didn't I see it? You said he is not from Jiyue Kingdom, so is it possible that there are still male slaves in Rizhao Kingdom?"

Everyone knows that the status of men in the Rizhao Kingdom has always been far superior to that of women, but now he said that the boy who was beaten and bullied by the women was not from the Jiyue Kingdom. Is this possible?
Yuqing didn't believe what he said, so she simply called the boy to the room.

When He Lanlian met the boy's fearful eyes, he recognized the man's identity at a glance.

Dugu Xiwei was right, this person was indeed an official slave who was branded as a slave after committing a crime in the Rizhao Kingdom, but why did he appear on this private ship of the Jiyue Kingdom?
Official slaves are always taken home by others and stay in the house to do the dirtiest and most tiring work. Because men are stronger than women, male slaves are more often robbed by the people of Rizhao. Some ministers even go out of their way to Find someone to buy a batch of male official slaves with fine skin and tender meat, and keep them in the house for fun.

"Child, I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you have to answer me truthfully." Yuqing stepped forward, raised the boy's face, took out his handkerchief and handed it over, "Wipe your face clean and let me take a good look."

The boy was originally lying on the ground with his head firmly pressed against the ground, for fear of being rejected.

After hearing his words, she raised her head timidly.

"Excuse me, sir." What he said was Ji Yue's elegant words.

He Lanlian's brows jumped. It seems that he has been fleeing to Jiyue for a long time. He can even speak the words here, but he doesn't know how he fled to Jiyue. He looks so young?

"Where are you from?" Yuqing asked.

The male slave obediently wiped the black mud from his face and said obediently: "This slave is from Jiyue."

When Yu Qing heard the sound, she turned around and glanced at Dugu Xiwei, but saw that his expression was calm, as if he had no intention of arguing with her.

Then he put away the naked "if you saw it, I'll tell him he's not from Rizhao" look on his face and continued to ask.

"When did you..." Seeing the word "slave" prominently marked on the boy's clean face and forehead, he immediately stopped talking and asked: "What's the matter with the mark on your forehead? "
