Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 312 Heartbroken Sao Nian

   "Seeking truth from the outside heart, this is the reason why knowledge and action are two. Seeking truth from my heart, this is the teaching of the unity of knowledge and action."

Zhu Pingan read the "Biography of Xilu" all morning, and had a further understanding of Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind. In addition to the unity of knowledge and action, Wang Yangming's lively language skills, good at using metaphors, and often witty words also benefited Zhu Pingan. No small impact.

   When it was almost noon, Li Shu led the little maid to Zhu Ping'an's guest room. The little maid was carrying a food box, and her face was flushed.

   "Grandpa~~ Let's eat~~"

  The bun girl elongated her voice, and put the food box on the table in Zhu Ping'an's room like a treasure, stretched out her chubby hand to open the food box, and took out the food one by one.

As soon as the food box was opened, Zhu Pingan smelled an intoxicating fragrance. Although the food in the Hou Mansion has always been very good, the food box brought by Hua'er, the little maid of Baozi, was obviously much better than what he ate two days ago. .

   The dishes in the food box are all my favorite dishes, and even the soup is my favorite rice porridge.

   "That's it, thank you very much." Zhu Pingan smiled slightly, and thanked Li Shu and Baozi's little maid.

   "Don't think about it, random people did it." Li Shu glanced at Zhu Ping'an, and said something with her mouth flattened.

   Zhu Pingan has long been immune to Li Shu's arrogance.

It happened that I was hungry too, so Zhu Pingan was not polite. He went to the table and put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into his mouth with chopsticks. I couldn't help but ate two pieces in a row before putting down my chopsticks.

   "You brought the cook at home?" Zhu Ping'an's eyes lit up.

   "Huh?" The little maid of Baozi was a little puzzled.

   "What, isn't it tasty?" Li Shu raised her eyebrows.

   "No, it's really delicious." Zhu Pingan shook his head, "The taste is the same as yours. I thought your cook would follow along."

   Li Shu glanced at Zhu Ping'an when she heard the words, her watery eyes lit up slightly, but she said with a flat mouth, "It's rare to see, it's not that there are no cooks in the Hou's residence."

  Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly, and didn't continue to ask, whether it was the cook of Li Shu's family or the cook of Hou's house, it didn't matter to him. The food tasted good, so he just ate more.

However, what surprised Zhu Pingan was that Li Shu and Baozi's maid had no intention of leaving. Li Shu went to Zhu Pingan's desk and sat down. Baozi's little maid is like a follower, she will go wherever Li Shu goes.

   "Aren't you going to eat?" Zhu Pingan stopped his chopsticks and asked.

   "We ate in the courtyard." Baozi's little maid puffed up Baozi's face and said, "There is a person in the front yard who is so annoying, he doesn't wink at all."

   "Oh?" Zhu Ping'an was a little curious.

   "He is the grandma's nephew, but he is annoying, he always hangs around in front of us." Baozi's little maid mentioned that man, and Baozi's face was full of displeasure.

"What are you talking about that idiot!" Li Shu seemed to be afraid that Zhu Ping'an would misunderstand her, and said as soon as the little girl of Baozi finished speaking, "That man is eighteen years old, he can't study well, and he is not good at martial arts. He has nothing to do at home. My family, Enyin, just made up for the Imperial College, obviously stupid as a dog, but still thinks that Pan An is reincarnated, pretends to be a genius with a fan all day long, and recites some nonsense poems, I hate it when I see it."

  When Li Shu mentioned that person, she was full of disgust.

After hearing the words of Baozi's little maid and Li Shu, Zhu Ping'an generally understood the outline of the matter. It was nothing more than to celebrate the old lady's birthday. Mrs. Linhuaihou's natal nephew came to the Hou's mansion in advance, presumably to see Li Shu's appearance , What kind of thought was moved, like a male orangutan, he kept acting in front of Li Shu, and finally annoyed Li Shu, so he came to hide here.

  Hehe, it is estimated that the entire Linhuaihou Mansion is happy to see its success, so let’s support that nephew, as can be seen from the attitude of the Linhuaihou Mansion towards him.

  Anyway, after the birthday banquet is over, Li Shu will also be announcing the engagement when she returns home, so it doesn't matter what happens to her.

  However, from Li Shu's reaction, it can be seen that the calculation of Linhuaihou Mansion has come to nothing.

  Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly, lowered his head and continued to eat his own food. He said that today's food tasted really good, and Zhu Ping'an felt that he could eat a lot more than before.

"Hey, Zhu Pingan, you have to remember, you are now my unmarried husband-in-law." Li Shu casually flipped through a piece of straw paper written by Zhu Pingan, looked at it for a while, and said to Zhu Pingan who was eating deliciously One sentence.

   Zhu Ping'an naturally understood what Li Shu meant, and it was also an appointment with Li Shu before coming to the Hou Mansion.

   "Naturally." Zhu Ping'an nodded, and put a piece of pot-packed meat into his mouth. He naturally knew what to do in the Hou Mansion.

  When Li Shu heard the words, her lips curled up in a satisfied arc.

  Zhu Ping'an continued to eat lunch, preparing to open his stomach and have a good meal. The extremely delicious lunch made Zhu Ping'an drunk for a while. However, before Zhu Pingan could eat for a long time, he saw a fragrant wind blowing, and Li Shu sat opposite her with a smile.

  What is this girl doing? I took the wrong medicine. Surprised, Zhu Ping'an almost dropped the chopsticks in his hand on the ground.

   "Brother Zhu, don't always eat meat. Try this stewed bamboo shoots. It's crisp and refreshing. It's perfect for dinner."

What surprised Zhu Pingan even more was that Li Shu graciously held a piece of stewed bamboo shoots and handed it to Zhu Pingan's lips. She looked at her with bright eyes, as if dripping water, and her voice was so delicate that it was almost soft. human bones.

  However, Zhu Ping'an soon understood what Li Shu meant.

  Because Li Shu's action came with a heart-piercing cry, as if Brother Zhang next door found Lao Wang lying in his closet, with anger in astonishment, and heartache in anger.

   "You, what are you doing. Cousin Shu'er, who is he? How can you do this?"

Zhu Pingan looked up and saw a Sao Nian in the shape of Xizi holding his heart. He looked like a husband who was catching a cheap man in bed. He held a folding fan in one hand, covered his chest with a hurt face, and pointed at himself and Li with the other hand tremblingly. Shu, it seems that she has suffered a lot of trauma.

   This person must be the nephew of Mrs. Linhuai Hou that Li Shu and Baozi's little maid said. He doesn't look very good, but he still has the posture of being the best in the world. He smells of makeup and powder, a typical dude.

  Besides him, Fatty Zhou was also by his side.

   Li Shu has already done this, so she naturally has to cooperate.

  Zhu Pingan raised his head and smiled slightly at the young man, then opened his mouth and rolled the stewed bamboo shoots that Li Shu handed over into his mouth, chewed hard, and nodded in satisfaction.

   Then, Sao Nian became even worse, his face turned green.

   "Oh, why are you here, you are so ashamed."

Li Shu seemed to be very shy as if she had just seen the person coming. She put down her chopsticks and hurriedly covered her face with a water sleeve, just like a standard big lady's private meeting with a brother who was discovered by someone, with a pretty face on her face. Blushing, she got up in a hurry, Xiaoman stomped her foot, then covered her face with her sleeve, led the bunny maid to trot all the way from the room, and disappeared.

  This girl, it's a pity not to be the actress

  Zhu Pingan looked at Li Shu's leaving back and smiled slightly.
