Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 816 See Orchid

Qin Yanwan looked at Qin Yanzhao suspiciously, feeling a little puzzled.

When he was in the car just now, he clearly had tea to drink, but Qin Yanzhao refused to drink it, and now he said he was thirsty, which is really weird.

As if seeing what she was thinking, Qin Yanzhao turned to her, frowned and said, "The lotus seed tea is too sweet, only you girls like to drink this."

Qin Yanwan couldn't help feeling apologetic when she heard the words, and bowed down and said, "Second brother, forgive me, but I didn't think carefully enough. Next time, I'll ask someone to prepare more tea in the car." Then he turned to Tao Wenjuan: "Thank you. Mrs. Tao has made arrangements for my second brother."

"It's just a small matter, Second Lady is too polite. But Mr. Erlang came here thirsty all the way, I think it's uncomfortable, I'll go to the study to make tea for Mr. Erlang first." Tao Wenjuan said here naturally, suddenly After a pause, he added another sentence: "Mmm...Er Langjun is not used to drinking tea made by others. Usually when several gentlemen are in class, I also brew the tea."

She didn't show any panic at all, she just glanced to the side with a pair of eyes, and she didn't know what she was looking at.

She has always been dignified and generous, such an expression rarely appeared on her face, fortunately Qin Yanwan couldn't see her face even with the fence covering her face.Hearing the words at this time, Qin Yanwan felt more and more regretful, and said softly: "That's really thankful for you, this matter was originally my fault." After a pause, she laughed again: "Well, I'll go inside first Waiting for you."

"You've neglected the second lady, please don't blame me." Tao Wenjuan was very considerate in etiquette, summoned a little servant girl to come over, and told her: "You take the second lady of the Qin family to sit inside, and I'll be back in a while."

After speaking, he greeted Qin Yanwan again, then helped the little servant girl's hand, and walked slowly.

Qin Yanzhao held his hands, and the corner of his eyes was focused on the half-old light blue fence. After a while, he looked away and turned to Qin Yanwan with a smile: "Second sister, go in now. I'll go to the study and wait for Master Tao to go."

Qin Yanwan replied yes, and followed the little servant girl to the backyard.

Tao Wenjuan went to the study first, and ordered the servant girl to boil the water, while she turned to the east corner to open the cupboard to find tea.

The tea leaves were all packed in airtight earthen jars, there were three in total, neatly stacked in the cabinet.Tao Wenjuan took down the fence, found a red lacquer tray and held it with one hand, lowered her head halfway, and removed the cover of the clay pot in the middle with one hand, and was about to scoop some tea leaves into the porcelain pot with a wooden spoon , suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

She thought it was the little servant girl who was talking back and forth, but she didn't look back, she just carefully took the tea leaves with her eyebrows bent, and said in her mouth: "I told you to boil the water, what are you doing here? Could it be that you are here to beg for malt sugar?"

There was a cough from behind, followed by the man's clear voice: "Sister, it's me."

Tao Wenjuan's hand, which was scooping up the tea leaves, shook for some reason, and half a spoonful of the tea leaves was also shaken off.

Concentrated, she still scooped up the tea, and just turned around, with a normal smile on her face: "Why did Mr. Erlang come here? There are sundries piled up here, it's very messy, and Mr. Lang is still waiting in the bright room ahead." It's better to serve, the tea will be ready soon."

Qin Yanzhao let out a "huh", but he didn't move. He stood under the steps for a while, and then asked, "I heard that you had a cold a few days ago, are you feeling better now?"

A very simple greeting, if it weren't for the urgency in his eyes, this greeting would not be worth mentioning.

However, in the end he still looked at her like this, it was the eager gaze of a young man, not empty, but with a clear intention.

Tao Wenjuan stood in a daze, and suddenly felt that his eyes were like two deep springs, flowing across the platform, passing through the lintel covered by the bamboo curtain, and reaching her.

Her heart skipped a beat for no reason.

Then, her complexion turned pale, and an emotion that was close to shame spread from the bottom of her heart.

She looked at him with a pale face, but there was an indescribable persistence in his eyes.It is the most ardent expectation when one is young, a bit childish, but mixed with a man's composure.

Tao Wenjuan subconsciously took half a step back.

Almost caught off guard, another more vigorous and more vigorous emotion suddenly rushed up, like flowers blown by the spring breeze, blooming all over the heart in an instant.

She squinted her eyes in confusion, and also caught the dots of light that appeared deep in her eyes.

However, she soon calmed down again, turned around and closed the lid of the clay pot, and after a "push" sound, she responded with a very flat sentence: "I'm done, don't bother Erlang to ask."

Qin Yanzhao's expression darkened.

However, he was still standing at the bottom of the steps, leaning forward slightly, as if eager to say something, and opened his mouth a little, as if something deep in his heart was about to spew out.

"Girl, the water is on the boil." A voice suddenly came in, like a severed blade, splitting the stretch of those emotions with a single stroke.

Qin Yanzhao paused for a moment in his forward leaning posture, then straightened his body, and took a half step back.

The little servant girl walking by didn't notice it, with an innocent smile on her face. Seeing Qin Yanzhao here, she bowed down and saluted with a smile, then walked to Tao Wenjuan's side, and stretched out her hand to pick up the tray. .

"Let me come." Tao Wenjuan stepped aside, still holding the tray in one hand, and stretched out her free hand to Mingjian: "Go and take Mr. Qin Erlang to sit in Mingjian, don't be abrupt customers."

Qin Yanzhao's face turned pale for an instant.

Then, there was a bitter smile on his face.

Guest, there is probably no more distant title in the world.

"Mr. Erlang, please follow me." The little servant girl stepped forward to lead the way courteously, with raised eyebrows and eyes on her round face.

Qin Yanzhao ignored her, and his gaze fell on the figure holding the tray in front of him.

A half-worn dress, white on the top and red on the bottom, with elegant orchids embroidered on the cuffs and neckline.

He recognized the embroidery, it was the pattern he had drawn for her.

She was wearing the orchid he painted, but her expression was cold, as if she was thousands of miles away from him.

Seeing that he was still not moving, Tao Wenjuan couldn't help but glanced at him, and then realized where he was looking.

Suddenly her face turned red, and there was a little embarrassment between her brows.

She quickly put both hands under the tray, turned her body half a circle, and bent her knees to him sideways: "Mr. Erlang is easy to go, I won't see you off."

Qin Yanzhao stared at her closely, his eyes seemed to be mixed with extremely hot temperature, the redness on her cheeks deepened little by little, but paled at a faster speed.

After bending her knees again, she walked forward and lifted the curtain leading to the ear room with one hand. With a "swipe", the bamboo curtain was raised and then lowered, and the beautiful shadow of the scissors was covered by the curtain into the room.
