The general is always teased

When Shi Nanyue came back, he saw Feng Bai sitting in front of the charcoal basin, roasting the fire while kneading salt-and-pepper melon seeds, looking leisurely and contented, while Shen Yijin, who was supposed to be teaching in Tong's Mansion at this time, was sitting alone in front of the desk by the window, with his right hand Holding a pen, resting his chin on his left hand, he looked out of the window sideways, not knowing what he was looking at.

After walking a few more steps into the room, Shi Nanyue realized that although Shen Yijin was holding a pen in his hand, there were only a few drops of smudged ink on the white paper on the desk, without any handwriting, and his eyes were also blank. of.

He was in a trance.

Hearing the sound, Feng Bai turned his head and saw that it was Shi Nanyue, so he stretched out a hand to shake him, and greeted him with a smile: "Brother, you are back."

Shi Nanyue responded with "Yes", then glanced at Shen Yijin again, and asked, "Is everything okay these two days?" He was away for these two days, and went back to the military camp to explain and deal with some things.

Feng Bai replied: "Everything is fine, nothing happened."

As he said that, he remembered that the Tongfu wanted to tell Shen Yijin about his marriage, so he curled his lips and continued with a smile: "However, there is one more thing..."

He told Shi Nanyue that Master Tong and Mrs. Tong wanted to be matchmakers for Shen Yijin, but he deliberately didn't tell him that Shen Yijin had already refused.

After the words fell, Feng Bai carefully observed his senior brother's expression again, as expected, there was a change.

The smile in Feng Bai's eyes grew stronger.

Ever since he discovered Shi Nanyue's thoughts, Feng Bai wanted his senior brother who had always been slow to understand his feelings as soon as possible. Don't be like him back then. He missed the best opportunity when he was ignorant. Even now, thinking about it, he still regrets it. endlessly.

Of course, there is another point, that is, he has a certain intention of watching a show, after all, how interesting it would be to watch a piece of wood be emotionally enlightened.

Hearing this, Shi Nanyue frowned subconsciously, and looked in Shen Yijin's direction.

Perhaps it was because of the conversation that Shen Yijin came back to his senses. He turned around, and when he saw Shi Nanyue, he smiled at him and said, "Is your business done?"

Shi Nanyue nodded: "It's done."

Walking to the side of the round table and sitting down, Shi Nanyue bought himself a cup of tea, and after drinking it, he turned his head to look at Shen Yijin, seeing that he was lost in thought again, he couldn't help but think of what Feng Bai had mentioned to him just now, and his brows frowned even tighter .

Thinking that Shen Yijin was preoccupied with thinking about this marriage at this time, Shi Nanyue looked at it, and suddenly felt a little inexplicably irritable. He poured himself another cup of tea and drank it, trying to relieve the dryness in his heart, but it didn't work. Instead, he became more and more concerned about Shen Yijin's answer. He pondered for a while, but he still couldn't help it, and asked, "Brother Shen, are you...are you going to marry that cousin from the Tongfu?"

"Huh?" Shen Yijin was a little puzzled at first, but after she realized what he was talking about, she shook her head and smiled, waved her hands and said, "I have already rejected the kindness of Master Tong and Mrs. Tong, and besides, I have not married yet. Wife's plan."

After hearing the words, Shi Nanyue was suddenly relieved.

But after realizing what he was thinking about, he frowned again, feeling a little guilty in his heart, feeling that his thoughts were too nasty.

Brother Shen is already twenty this year. At this age, other people would already have a couple of children under his knees. He is a few years older, and he is regarded as a friend by Brother Shen. At this time, it should be to persuade him to marry a wife. Why? Will feel happy when he hears that he has rejected the marriage and does not plan to marry for the time being.

Shi Nanyue felt more and more that he was really weird, but he couldn't figure out why.

And recently, as long as he stayed with Shen Yijin, he couldn't help but want to see him, and just now when he heard Feng Bai talking about Master Tong wanting to marry Shen Yijin, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart Comfortable, very angry and a little disappointed, but when Shen Yijin told him that he had declined the marriage, he felt happy again...

Shi Nanyue didn't understand what happened to him.

He had never experienced such emotions in the past 26 years.

After thinking about it, his eyes couldn't stop falling on Shen Yijin.

Paying attention to Shi Nanyue's gaze, Shen Yijin turned back to look at him, blinked, and asked him with a smile: "Why do you keep looking at me? What's on my face?"

"No."

Shi Nanyue shook his head, and was about to ask him why he didn't marry the young lady from Tong's Mansion, but he saw that Feng Bai had stopped eating melon seeds at some point, and was looking at them without blinking, with his face written all over. The words 'I'm watching a good show' were added.

Shi Nanyue: "..."

Seeing that the senior brother noticed that he was looking at them, Feng Bai touched his nose, smiled sarcastically, stood up, and couldn't continue watching, he stretched his hands and yawned again, lazily Lazily said: "I can finally catch up on my sleep." After he finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Shen Yijin again, and said to him, "You don't have to save my lunch for a while."

Although he can bring his own food, he has been spoiled by Shen Yijin's food for the past few days here. He feels that the dry food is hard and unpalatable, and he can't eat it. Therefore, except when Shen Yijin has no time to go to Tongfu, he Only eat other things, otherwise they would sit and eat with Shen Yijin.

Shen Yijin nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

After saying that, Shen Yijin turned her head to look at Feng Bai again, and saw that his eyes were slightly swollen and red, knowing that he hadn't closed his eyes for the past two days in order to protect herself, after thinking about it, she asked him again: "By the way, Do you still want to eat the mung bean cake you mentioned last time? I don’t have to go to Tong’s Mansion today, I can make some for you.”

When Feng Bai accompanied his master to Hangzhou a few years ago, he ate mung bean cakes, and he always remembered the taste. When he was chatting with Shen Yijin two days ago, he thought of his master, so he asked Shen Yijin if he would make it.Shen Yijin knew it, but because the method was a little cumbersome, he didn't have time at that time, so he didn't do it for Feng Bai.

When it came to eating, Feng Bai would never refuse, he nodded, and then waved to Shen Yijin with a smile.

Once Feng Bai left, only Shen Yijin and Shi Nanyue were left behind, but they both had their own concerns, one was in a daze, the other was silent, relatively speechless.

Old man Lin came over a quarter of an hour later.

When he came, Shen Yijin was about to get up to prepare lunch, and it was almost noon now.

Old man Lin had gone to Tong's Mansion to see a doctor for Mrs. Tong, and when he had his pulse checked, he heard her mention that Shen Yijin had rejected their proposed marriage. Hearing Mrs. Tong's tone, he was still blaming Shen Yijin for not being flattering.

Old man Lin always defended his shortcomings, and when he heard it, he was dissatisfied. He was unhappy all the way with his beard raised, and when he came out of the house, he heard some servants gathering together to discuss Shen Yijin, which was not a good thing, so he became even more unhappy.After he left Tong's Mansion, he came directly to Shen Yijin, wanting to ask what was going on.

As soon as he entered the door, old man Lin grabbed Shen Yijin and looked up and down. After looking at it for a long time, he let go of Shen Yijin and sat down, and beckoned him to sit beside him.

Shen Yijin was taken aback, so she asked, "What happened?"

Old man Lin glared at him, dissatisfied: "Have you been bullied again in Tongfu?"

Shen Yijin shook her head: "I have never been bullied."

Old man Lin frowned and stared at him for a while, then asked him, "Then what happened to Lao Shizi's marriage?"

Only then did Shen Yijin understand what old man Lin was angry about, and why he said he was being bullied. He thought that old man Lin went to Tong's Mansion today and heard what the people there said.

Smiling at old man Lin, Shen Yijin poured him a cup of tea to calm him down, and then explained the ins and outs of the matter.

Old man Lin naturally felt that Shen Yijin did a good job, especially when he saw him today, the Tongfu was not very good, he was self-righteous and looked down on others, and he would never go to see a doctor again next time, but there were some reasons why he refused Shen Yijin Curious, he asked, "Shen family boy, why did you reject this marriage?"

Shen Yijin smiled slightly, and said: "Let's not matter that I have never met that cousin and have no love for her, and that she is only 13 years old this year, so young, she is just a child, not to mention she She was born in a rich family, and she was well-clothed and well-fed since she was a child, but I am just a poor and poor scholar, I just get along, how can I let her suffer with me."

Shi Nanyue glanced at him disapprovingly, and said, "Brother Shen, don't underestimate yourself." After a pause, he looked at Shen Yijin, and said very seriously: "You deserve the best."

Old man Lin was full of approval, and nodded at the side.
