My Gentleman Reborn

On the second day, Cong Di came to the door with a live fish, saying it was Zhao Yi's gift of apology.

He Yuzhou pursed his lips and asked suspiciously, "Why didn't Uncle One come by himself?"

Congdi scratched his head and didn't answer, but just stuffed the fish into He Yuzhou's hand and said, "Xiaozhou, don't disappoint Uncle Yi, he was thinking about your body, so he called me up early in the morning to fish it in the river , He fished out two, and he immediately asked me to give you the big one."

He Yuzhou pursed his lips, feeling even more weird.

Cong Di started to walk out, "I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."

He Yuzhou closed his eyes, always feeling that whether it was Cong Di or Zhao Yi, the past two days have been very strange.

When Mrs. Guan came to the door, He Yuzhou was staring at the fish in his hand in a daze. He didn't like fish very much, and he rarely cooked fish. In the previous world, fish merchants killed fish to buy them. This live fish was found in He Yuzhou. The hand made him suffer.

Seeing He Yuzhou's appearance, Mrs. Guan knew what he was worried about, and immediately stepped forward to take over He Yuzhou's work. He Yuzhou smiled gratefully and said, "Mother is always so timely when she comes here."

"Ha." Aunt Guan laughed loudly: "Xiaozhou doesn't mind that Madam runs frequently."

"How could that be?" He Yuzhou said.

Looking at Mrs. Guan working, He Yuzhou thought of the strangeness of Cong Di and Zhao Yi recently, squatted in front of Mrs. Guan, and asked hesitantly, "Mother, what's the matter with Brother Cong and Uncle Zhao Yi recently?"

"Huh?" Mrs. Guan was a little puzzled.

He Yuzhou explained with some embarrassment: "It always feels like they are... avoiding me?"

Aunt Guan was taken aback, she quickly turned her head away, and said uncomfortably: "What is Xiaozhou thinking, they are the best friends with you, how could they avoid you."

"But..." He Yuzhou frowned.

Aunt Guan quickly changed the subject and said, "This fish is so fresh, did you bring it from Young Master Lu?"

"..." He Yuzhou said, "No, Uncle Yi captured this."

Aunt Guan paused, with a strange expression on her face, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't say it out loud. In the end, she still didn't say anything, but continued to clean the fish with much faster hands.

He Yuzhou looked at her suspiciously, pursed his lips and said, "Why don't you just say what the aunt wants to say?"

Aunt Guan paused slightly when she heard the words, and smiled awkwardly: "Actually, it's nothing, Xiaozhou, if you are already Young Master Lu's person, treat Young Master Lu well, then Young Master Lu is sick, but his family background Good, good reputation, let's not ask so much."

"..." He Yuzhou was taken aback, and frowned: "Ma'am, what are you talking about?"

Aunt Guan said: "Don't think that Madam is too talkative. Young Master Lu has a clean family background. He has no wife or concubine in his family. You won't be wronged when you marry. Your Uncle Zhao has a wife and a child in his family. The conditions are not as good as Young Master Lu. Xiaozhou, you..."

"Wait!" He Yuzhou interrupted Aunt Guan, his eyelids twitched wildly: "Auntie, who told you that I belong to Young Master Lu? Who else said that I am going to marry Lu Zhuoxi?"

Aunt Guan was taken aback and said, "Didn't Young Master Lu spend the night at Xiaozhou's house?"

He Yuzhou nodded: "He spent the night with me, but...you all know that night, it was getting late and kept him here..."

"But the lonely man and the widow spend the night together..." Aunt Guan said softly, frowning and said: "Xiaozhou, don't hide it from Auntie, the next day everyone in the village will see you walking together, behaving intimately along the way... ...This is not a joke, it has something to do with your reputation..."

"..." He Yuzhou black line.

Aunt Guan said: "Or is Xiaozhou reluctant to part with Zhao Yi? Although Zhao Yi is a scholar, he already has a wife and children at home... who are much older than you. Xiaozhou, please listen to my aunt's advice and treat that young master Lu well and wholeheartedly. "

"..." He Yuzhou's head began to ache, he rubbed his temples and said, "Ma'am, let's put Lu Zhuoxi's matter aside, Uncle Zhao..."

"Xiaozhou!" Mrs. Guan interrupted He Yuzhou sharply: "You don't really want to marry Zhao Xiucai, do you? He and his wife have always had a very good relationship. Besides, no one in the country has ever talked about marrying a concubine. Do you really want to?" Are you doing the first case in our village with Zhao Yi?"

"..." He Yuzhou really wanted to laugh, but seeing Mrs. Guan's serious expression, he couldn't laugh at all.

He sighed and first explained: "Ma'am, Uncle Zhao is my uncle. He is a generation older than me. He and I are like elders and juniors. Although we often hang out together, we are just chatting."

He Yuzhou said dumbfoundedly: "I never thought about... marrying Uncle Zhao, why do you think of us so much?"

"..." Mrs. Guan said silently: "Xiaozhou, you are a girl's family. Although there are not as many rules in the countryside as the big families, everyone is watching with so many eyes. Zhao Xiucai runs to your house every day. In the morning When I arrived at your house, I didn’t go home until sunset, and I delivered everything to your house, not to mention other people who don’t know you, just my aunt. Sometimes I look at you, and I think you are too close. There are many troublemakers in the village. This story has been widely spread, and now everyone in the village is rumoring that Zhao Yi wants to marry you as a concubine."

"..." He Yuzhou's eyes widened when he heard the words, feeling extremely absurd.

Aunt Guan said: "Xiaozhou, don't think too much about others, this is a village, everyone likes to chatter and talk when they have nothing to do, but Xiaozhou, don't underestimate this rumor, if it is passed on like this, not to mention that Zhao Yi's family will be affected , even Xiaozhou, your reputation will be completely stink!"

"..." He Yuzhou remained silent. It turned out that Uncle Zhao avoided him; it turned out that Aunt Zhao treated him like this when he went to Uncle Zhao's house the last two times, and that Cong Di probably kept a distance from him because of this.

He Yuzhou sighed helplessly, and Mrs. Guan said: "Xiaozhou, you come from a wealthy family, so you should know how to avoid suspicion."

"..." He Yuzhou smiled wryly when he heard the words. Although he is the concubine of the He family, he has met only a handful of people in the past 17 years. Although he understands that women in this world should keep a distance from men...but he has no experience to keep a distance...

Moreover, he didn't treat himself as a woman at all recently. Although he was a boy in another world for ten years, he only learned to communicate with people there. Do as you please, without any scruples...

But now in this world, in the eyes of others, he is still a woman...

He Yuzhou closed his eyes, didn't make any more excuses, just bowed his head and said: "Ma'am, I understand, I think I'd better return this fish."

"Hey, since you picked it up, keep it and eat it, Xiaozhou, your body also needs to be mended." Aunt Guan dodged He Yuzhou's outstretched hand.

He Yuzhou was taken aback, and Aunt Guan blinked at He Yuzhou: "Although this matter needs attention, your body, Xiaozhou, is more important. Walk around, and Madam Guan will cook fish soup for you."

As he spoke, he walked back with the fish in his hand. He Yuzhou laughed, and followed Mrs. Guan back to the hut.

"Ma'am, I plan to build a house in half a month." He Yuzhou said when Aunt Guan was busy.

Aunt Guan was taken aback and said, "So fast? Is the silver tael enough?"

"Well, that's enough, I sold some recipes for the Star Pagoda." He Yuzhou replied.

"Star point tower? The one you made last time?"

"Well, when the He family came back, they bought it from me." He Yuzhou said, his face darkened, and he didn't want to think about Wen Qiurong or mention it, so he changed the subject and said: "Auntie, maybe at that time Hire a helper."

"That's for sure." Mrs. Guan replied.

"But I don't know anyone..." He Yuzhou said in distress.

Aunt Guan smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about that, I'll ask Dahai to find someone to help you."

"You can see the money." Aunt Guan said boldly, "Madam will come to help when the time comes."

He Yuzhou warmed his heart and said, "Thank you aunt, but I'm not very familiar with how aunt's wages are calculated."

"Generally, people only give [-] Wen a day, and Xiaozhou also pays according to this, just pack a Chinese meal."

"Okay." He Yuzhou replied.
