pretty lady in disguise

Chapter 55

When Changan came over, Ayu was sitting under the eaves of the verandah basking in the sun with Pea.The afternoon sun in autumn is not as blazing as in summer, and it is warm and comfortable when it shines on your body, making you sleepy.Ayu gently combed the pea's long golden hair, and when the pea hair was all dry, she almost fell asleep.

Just about to get up and go in, when he heard footsteps, he looked up and saw Chang'an.Ayu knew that he was here to persuade her again, although she was a little helpless, she stood up holding Peas, waiting to hear another persuasion from him.

Chang An didn't dare to look at A Yu.

What I saw just now, there is one person and one dog, she has a slight smile on her face, she is quiet because she is used to loneliness in the nunnery, and she is satisfied because she has a puppy to accompany her, but now, he seems to have to take away the satisfaction from the corner of her mouth that person.

"Ayu, the cousin is here. Our young master only has this cousin. He is worried that the cousin is not used to living here alone, so he wants to give the peas to the cousin to raise for a few days. You, you come with me, you I know how to take care of Pea, so I can tell my cousin’s maid in a while.” He had to say it if he didn’t want to, and he told her first, so that she would be mentally prepared so that she wouldn’t panic when she heard it.

Ayu slowly raised his head and looked towards Chang'an.

She really didn't expect it to be like this, he didn't come to persuade her, but...

Ayu looked down at Pea.Because she was curious about Chang'an, Pea raised her big head from her arms, her black eyes rolled around.Noticing her lowering her head, Pea looked up at her, and her eyes met. It stretched its neck to lick her.A Yu smiled, picked it up, and licked it.

She is very reluctant.For more than half a month, Pea has eaten with her and slept with her. Although Pea can't speak, Ayu feels very at ease with her.It is like her family, it will rely on her, it will act like a baby with her, and it will shrink into her arms at night. The feeling of being needed is better than when being helped.

It's a pity that Pea is not her dog, it belongs to Zhan Huaichun, who bought it for 50 taels of silver.Now Zhan Huaichun wants to give it to his cousin to raise it for a few days, let alone raise it for a few days, or never send it back to Evergreen Garden, what can she do?
"Well, I see, let's go." A Yu didn't keep Chang'an waiting, and closed the door instead, and slowly went down the steps, holding the pea in one hand, and gently stroking the top of its head with the other.

Chang An sighed in his heart, and went to the front to lead the way.

It was impossible for Zhan Huaichun and Shen Tang to stand and wait for A Yu over there, so they chose a bench nearby and sat under the shade of a tree to talk.

"Who is A Yu?" Shen Tang asked curiously, she almost remembered all the servants in the Zhan family, why didn't she know there was a man named A Yu?
"It's an orphan I picked up. Seeing that she has nowhere to go, she stays by my side as a maid for the time being." Zhan Huaichun explained casually, swinging willow branches in his hand, leisurely.

There was a slight smile on his face, but there was a haze in his eyes.When Shen Tang saw it, he became even more curious about the maid called A Yu. The two Zhan family brothers didn't like serving maids. Since the other party could be brought back by Zhan Huaichun, there must be something unusual about him.

Soon, Changan led people over there.

Shen Tang first looked at Zhan Huaichun, seeing that he was looking ahead as if he didn't care about the person coming, so he looked over by himself.

A Yu is dressed as a maid, her figure is slender and graceful, and her slightly hasty steps are surprisingly charming, but the first thing that attracts Shen Tang is the unique scarf on her head, followed by her slightly lowered face .Shen Tang has seen many beauties, and she herself is not bad. Seeing that A Yu was still amazed, she couldn't help but cast a glance at Zhan Huaichun.Such a beautiful maid, no wonder he is willing to stay by his side, but the ancestors of the Zhan family precepted not to take concubines, does he really not have that kind of intention, or is he planning to marry her?
If it's the latter, Ah Yu is her future sibling, so she has to observe each other carefully first.If the two have similar temperaments, she is willing to make friends with A Yu. If they don't, then don't interfere. After all, this is Zhan Huaichun's private matter. Of course, if it happens, she will still try to build a good relationship with her. Who Let her be the elder sister-in-law?
"Young Master, A Yu is here." Chang An bowed and stopped twenty steps away, turning his head to wink at A Yu.

Ayu remembered the rules of the Zhan Mansion, and went forward to salute respectfully: "The servant has met the young master, and the cousin girl."

Zhan Huaichun clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves into fists, and finally looked towards her.

In the morning, he followed her, afraid that she would find out that he didn't dare to get too close, and she was wearing a veil all the time, so he couldn't see what she looked like inside.Now he saw that her face was fair, rosy, well-behaved and peaceful under the scarf, without any agitation. Her thick eyelashes were drooping, covering those clear black eyes and her easily detectable emotions.

This was the first time the two had faced each other since that night.As early as I glimpsed a figure in the corner of my eye, as early as she was getting closer, some place on his chest was messed up for no reason, but she stood there firmly, behaved.She called herself a slave, clearly telling him that her mind had not changed due to his recent neglect.

Zhan Huaichun sneered, he wouldn't change it if he didn't change it, and he didn't expect her to change it.

Looking away, Zhan Huaichun ordered casually: "Put the pea down, from now on, it belongs to the cousin girl." Originally, he wanted to let Shen Tang raise it for a few days, but seeing her calm appearance, he was very upset. It's uncomfortable, he's uncomfortable, and she shouldn't be comfortable either.She is not afraid of being raised by others for a few days, but if they are taken away from her completely, she will always be afraid, right?She really cared about that dog, unlike him, who disappeared from her eyes for so long, she didn't even bother to look at it.

A Yu hadn't heard Zhan Huaichun's voice for a long time, and didn't want to hear it again, this is what he was talking about.

She still remembers that when he bought a dog, he asked her to choose and name Pea.After getting up, he sat beside her, so close, his eyes were full of smiles, as gentle as the sparkling lake water in spring, but it seemed that in a blink of an eye, he said that the peas were no longer hers.

That's right, the peas are not hers in the first place, she just helps him take care of them, he is fickle and moody, didn't she know it a long time ago?She took good care of her, he treated her so well, she made him angry, he...

Ayu bent down, put Pea on the ground, touched the top of its head, and whispered softly: "Pea, that's the cousin, from now on you have to be more honest around the cousin, don't hide it on purpose again, go over quickly " As he spoke, he pushed Pea toward Shen Tang, but Pea refused to leave, and after being pushed away, he turned around and burrowed into the gap between her legs, and it was like this several times.

The surroundings were too quiet, so quiet that Ah Yu panicked, she couldn't help but look up, and saw that Zhan Huaichun and the cousin girl seemed to be looking at her, but she wasn't particularly sure, because there were tears in her eyes, so she couldn't see clearly.

If the delay continues, Ah Yu is afraid that she will cry.

She picked up Pea in a hurry, walked a few steps and brought it to Shen Tang. The other party didn't pick it up for some reason, and Ayu couldn't care less, and put Pea on her lap a little offensively: "Cousin girl, hold it, Pea Very obedient, I will kiss you after playing with you for a while. I still have something to do in the servant's room, so I will go back first." After speaking, she turned around and walked back quickly.

There were tears dripping on the back of Shen Tang's hand, Shen Tang was already in a daze, and was startled by the tears and couldn't help but let go.As soon as she let go, Pea immediately jumped down, barking and chasing after Ayu.Ayu heard it, and when she turned her head, Pea had already rushed in front of her, her two front paws tightly grasped her legs, and she raised her head and called out to her.

A Yu burst into tears, she didn't want to cry in front of everyone, but she couldn't bear it anymore, squatted down and picked up Pea, and cried out in a muffled voice.

Those who have been kind to her, Master and the others are still on the mountain, and they are already different from her.Osmanthus has her own home, and she can go back almost years ago.As for Zhan Huaichun, in fact Zhan Huaichun was very kind to her. He was the young master, and he didn't bully her very much. He didn't take away the monthly money or hit the board. She wasn't used to the identity when it came to her.

Only Pea, if she treats it well, it treats her wholeheartedly, with no difference in status in its eyes.

Her shoulders kept shaking, and her suppressed sobs rose and fell, and everyone could hear her forbearance.

Perhaps she was crying so pitifully and helplessly that Shen Tang couldn't bear the pain.She looked away and looked at the man who stood up immediately when A Yu squatted down. Seeing the unsteady expression on his face, she vaguely guessed that there must be something she didn't know, otherwise a maid would not be so sad because of the dog .

What's the matter?Who did she provoke?Why make her a bad person?

Shen Tang got angry, and rushed around to Zhan Huaichun, his brows were upside down: "Zhan Huaichun, what exactly do you want to do? You want to snatch the dog from her, you can grab it yourself, don't involve me! Mingyue, let's go!"

She led the servant girl away, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, but Zhan Huaichun didn't look at her, only the crying figure in his eyes.She often shed tears, and he only saw her cry like this once, it was the day when her eldest brother came back and she thought he didn't want her anymore.

When he came back to his senses, Zhan Huaichun had unknowingly arrived in front of A Yu.He looked at her, kept watching, she must have known it, lifted his head slightly from his arms, tilted his head to look at his feet, then lowered his head, grabbed the peas and was about to put them on the ground.

"Don't cry, since the cousin doesn't want it, you just keep raising it." Zhan Huaichun said without opening his eyes.

"Thank you, young master. This servant couldn't do it for a while, so I held back and lost my composure in front of my cousin. Don't worry, young master, this servant will send peas over." A Yu wiped her eyes with her sleeve, and slowly stood up.Give it to the cousin girl, lest he repeat it in the future.

"I told you to raise it, so you can raise it. If you really don't want to raise it, I'll throw it to death!" She didn't know what to do, and Zhan Huaichun was furious. Going so fast, you will bypass the intersection in a blink of an eye.

After bypassing it, he stopped abruptly, looking at her figure through the dense flowers and leaves.

Why can't she say a soft word?
How much he thought, she would throw herself into his arms and cry out her grievances like last time, but she didn't.He thought about it, hugged her to comfort her like last time, but she didn't need it.In her eyes, he was just a young master. Her tears were shed because she had nowhere to go, because her beloved dog was about to be snatched away, but never once for him.

It's ridiculous that he still wants to force her to bow her head in this way, but in the end he just overestimated his weight in her heart.

She would rather not have peas than beg him to give in to him.He stood beside her for so long, she didn't even look up at him.

This afternoon, the Zhan family was unprecedentedly quiet, the second young master was shut up in the wing room, and there was no movement in the Evergreen Garden as if there was no one there.

Only the cousin girl occasionally makes some noise.

Hearing that Zhan Zhihan had returned, Shen Tang angrily went to complain to him: "Cousin, what the hell is going on with the second cousin and that Ayu? Today the second cousin insisted on giving me his poodle. Ayu cried, crying so pitifully, I felt that I had made a big mistake, I didn't want to bully others, when the second cousin said to send me off, I didn't know she would be so reluctant to bear the dog!"

As if she was at home, she sat on the chair angrily, her posture was not straight, and she didn't look like a lady at all.

Zhan Zhihan sat down opposite her with his neck loosely held, and said calmly, "Next time he talks to you about Ayu, you don't have to pay any attention."

Shen Tang looked at him lying on the table, and lowered his voice: "Cousin, does the second cousin like A Yu? When A Yu cried, I saw that his face was so distressed that his face turned pale. I didn't see him treat anyone It's easier this way. Well, if he really likes Ayu, I'll advise him, lest he be stupid and only make people sad. With such a bad temper, who would like him?" Thinking of Zhan Huaichun not only being stupid but also taking Shen Tang hated her as a villain, and his teeth itch.

It's better if you don't like it, Zhan Zhihan said in his heart, but he told her: "You are not allowed to meddle in their affairs."

Shen Tang was taken aback.

The man has a stern face, and he has been taking care of her like this since he was a child. He is serious but has another kind of intimacy. If he doesn't take it seriously, how can he take care of her?
Sweetness welled up in Shen Tang's heart, he looked at the door, stood up slowly, walked to Zhan Zhihan, frowned as if he was a little confused, then when Zhan Zhihan put down the teacup and looked up, he slammed on him pounce.The man was shocked, but he didn't rush to hide from her. Instead, he hugged her firmly as if he was afraid of her falling.Satisfied in Shen Tang's heart, before the man started to push her, he hugged his neck tightly, leaned into his arms and said, "Cousin, you are so kind to me." She just likes him to take care of her, as if she is his .

Zhan Zhihan's body froze, is this good for her?
The next moment, he pushed the man who started to behave dishonestly, stood up and said: "It's time to eat, your second cousin is feeling uncomfortable now, please be honest at the dinner table, so as not to block his eyes and get angry at you."

"I know, he's frustrated in love, and seeing the two of us happy and sweet again, he must feel uncomfortable. Hehe, I'm his future sister-in-law after all, so I can't bully him like this." Shen Tang followed the man obediently, like an obedient daughter-in-law .

Zhan Zhihan acted as if he hadn't heard, and walked forward on his own.

When we arrived at the main room, as soon as we sat down, someone came to report that the second young master had gone out.

It was getting dark, Shen Tang looked at Zhan Zhihan worriedly, and Zhan Zhihan handed her the chopsticks: "Don't worry about him when you eat."
