A huge sound exploded in my ears, and the housekeeper who was kneeling on the ground was taken aback. He raised his eyes tremblingly and looked at the mistress of the Zhao family who was sitting above. The face that looked particularly arrogant and domineering in front of Chen Xing, now Already covered with thin beads of sweat, it looked extraordinarily embarrassed.

Mother Zhao's well-maintained face was full of meanness at this time, she raised her hand with beautiful petal nails, pointed straight at the man kneeling on the ground, and asked angrily: "You were How did you tell me, and how do you do it now? If you hadn’t strongly recommended it, I wouldn’t have asked you to do it, and you ended up doing it for me!”

The butler trembled twice, looked at the furious headed mistress above, and begged for mercy: "Madam, it's not me, it's the guy who sells things who doesn't know what's good. Just as I said what I'm here, he took Joe and rejected me." Proposal. I wanted to trade him with an assistant from the kitchen of Zhao’s Restaurant, but he was unwilling and even taunted me.”

When Zhao's mother heard what he said, her face became even more ugly, she raised her hand and patted the table beside her, her face was full of anger, "It's unreasonable, that brother is so ignorant."

Seeing Zhao's mother being so angry, the housekeeper echoed, "Yes, ma'am! Others know that I am the Zhao family's housekeeper, and they usually treat me a little bit less, but that brother is the only one who is not only arrogant, but also so ignorant. "

Mother Zhao calmed down after she lost her temper. She squinted at the man kneeling on the ground with an unfathomable expression.

Under Zhao's mother's cold gaze, the housekeeper, who was still aggressive just now, gradually became a little scared, wishing to shrink into a ball and hide somewhere she couldn't see.

Seeing the timid housekeeper, Mother Zhao leaned back on the soft pillow, and said casually: "Since that brother doesn't know good from bad, then you should teach him a lesson and let him know who can offend and who can't." Offended. I don't believe that he can be so tough."

"Yes." Hearing what Mother Zhao said, the butler was overjoyed, feeling that his chance had come.

Just when Mother Zhao was about to send him out to carry out her plan, the door curtain was lifted from the outside, and then a fat figure walked in.

Zhao's mother took a closer look at her youngest daughter, Zhao Jing.

Seeing her appearing here, Zhao's mother showed obvious displeasure on her face, her voice was still as cold and indifferent as before, "What are you doing here at this hour?" Zhao Jing has always been very fond of her mother. He was very frightened, and when he heard her questioning, he pursed his lips a little uneasy, but thinking of what she was about to say, he still summoned up his courage a little, and whispered: "Just now my daughter heard what my mother said at the door. .”

Zhao's mother didn't get angry when she saw her cowardly look, but she was born to her anyway, so she kept holding back. Now that she heard her say this, her eyebrows immediately stood up, and she said in dissatisfaction : "What do you want to say?"

Zhao Jing pursed her lips, looked at her expressionless mother cautiously, and insisted on expressing her thoughts, "Daughter has no other intentions, it's just that mother forced the little boss to help make desserts, if it spreads to the county In Madam Ling's ears, she probably won't like it? After all, the county magistrate and magistrate's wife are famous for not liking others to bully others."

After listening to Zhao Jing's words, Zhao's mother frowned more and more delicately. She was silent for a while, and then said lightly: "Then what do you think I should do?"

Seeing that Mother Zhao's words softened, Zhao Jing knew that her persuasion had some effect. She pursed her lips and put forward her own suggestion.

"It's better to ask my daughter to negotiate with the little boss first to see if he is willing to continue to provide us with desserts. If not, it's not too late for mother to think of other ways. Since the little boss is willing to use that thing as a gift If he gave it to me, he probably wouldn't be stingy to do more. Since he did it voluntarily, it won't cause any harm to our family's reputation."

After listening to Zhao Jing's words, Zhao's mother did not say anything immediately, but instead looked at Zhao Jing several times, and when Zhao Jing was about to be unable to bear it, she said leisurely: "Since you have said so, then Let you try it out first."

"Yes, thank you mother!" Zhao Jing breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't expect that she would succeed in persuading her, and it could be regarded as saving the little boss some hardships.

Zhao's mother looked at her, her face showed no signs of softening, and continued: "It's just that I said my ugly words first, if you can't get that little boss to help, I will do it in my own way."

Zhao Jing's round face tensed for a moment, and she replied softly, "I know, mother."

Mother Zhao waved her hand after listening to her promise, and said impatiently: "If there is nothing else, you can go back first."

"Yes."

After Zhao Jing obediently took the maid and left, Zhao's mother sneered slightly, and whispered: "I underestimated my daughter, it seems that she has learned nothing from the old lady's place. .”

The butler on the ground looked up at Zhao's mother, with a hesitant expression on his face, but finally he didn't dare to speak out.

Mother Zhao glanced at him lightly, and said coldly: "I know what you're thinking, but this is not a trivial matter. Let Jing'er try first, and then go after she fails to become you. If you dare to act without authorization , don’t blame me for the old and new accounts.”

Having been punctured, the butler froze, knelt on the ground and bowed, and said softly, "Yes, I understand."

Zhao's mother waved him to go down, and when only she and her close nurse were left in the room, she stared at the flower arrangement next to her and laughed softly, "You say my daughter is really stupid , or fake stupid?"

When Mammy heard her words, she lowered her head and said softly, "Miss is just too kind."

Mother Zhao sneered and didn't answer.

Chen Xing woke up from a nap, changed into clean clothes, and walked towards Gu Lang's study room, where they had been teaching for the past few days, and today was no exception.

Chen Xing's progress was so fast that even Gu Lang was amazed. Gu Lang, who had always praised Chen Xing very well, would praise him even when he found an opportunity.

At first, Chen Xing blushed when he was praised, so he used an excuse he had learned a long time ago, telling Gu Lang not to praise him like that all the time.It's a pity that there was little effect. Even after Gu Lang changed his way of praising him, Chen Xing began to swell a little.

It was the same today, thinking that he would be praised by Gu Lang again, a bright smile appeared on Chen Xing's face. Very little joy.

When they arrived at Gu Lang's study room, Chen Xing saw Gu Lang standing in front of the table at a glance, and looked at the man who looked good in a simple blue dress, Chen Xing couldn't help calling out his name, "Gu Lang Lang."

Hearing Chen Xing's movement, Gu Lang turned his head to look in the direction of the door, and showed him a shallow smile, that handsome face was still as gentle as ever, "You're here."

Chen Xing looked at him, and the smile on his face became bigger and bigger.He didn't know why he was so happy, but when he saw Gu Lang like this, he felt happy!

Chen Xing jumped up to Gu Lang, looked at him and said with a smile, "Why did you come so early today?"

There is still half an hour before their appointment time, logically speaking, Gu Lang should still be resting now.

After Gu Lang glanced at him, he looked down at the table.

Following his gaze, Chen Xing saw a long sandbox placed on the table at some point, with a shallow layer of fine sand spread inside.He glanced at the thing, then looked up at Gu Lang, and asked in surprise, "This is it?"

Gu Lang smiled at him, and said softly: "Didn't you keep letting go of the white paper? I went to ask the carpenter to make this sandbox, but the fine sand is not easy to find, so it took a while. Time. Now that it is done, you can practice on it first, and then write it on paper when you are proficient, so that you will not be intimidated.”

Chen Xing didn't expect that Gu Lang not only saw that he was tied up for fear of waste, but also calmly brought such a thing back for him. At this moment, his mood was a little complicated, and he was a little moved when he looked at Gu Lang's expression.

Gu Lang looked at the look in his eyes, reached out and rubbed his head, and said warmly: "Okay, don't just look at me, you should try this thing to see if it's right for you."

Chen Xing blushed a little and pulled Gu Lang's hand rubbing his head, muttering in a low voice: "I see, don't keep treating me like a child, I'm already an adult."

"Okay." Gu Lang coaxed him with a good temper. As for whether he listened, only he himself knew.

This sound made Chen Xing's face turn even redder. He looked away from Gu Lang, stopped looking at him, picked up the branch that Gu Lang had prepared for him to act as a pen, and began to practice on the sand table. Think of the words he has learned in the past few days.

As soon as he touched the branch, Chen Xing let out a huff. He stared at the ordinary-looking branch, and felt that the texture of this branch was different from those branches he had touched before. It didn't feel like the texture of a tree. Instead, it looks like some kind of jade texture.

Gu Lang had been watching his movements from the side, now seeing his expression changed, he asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Chen Xing turned to look at him, and expressed his confusion.

Gu Lang smiled softly, but there was something in his bright smile that he couldn't understand, and he replied without asking, "Then do you like it?"

Hearing Gu Lang's question, Chen Xing nodded sincerely, and said truthfully, "I like it!"

The corners of Gu Lang's mouth slightly raised, he looked at the things in his hand, his eyes were deep, and he said softly: "I asked the carpenter to help me make this. As for the branches that are used as raw materials, I randomly picked them up on the way back to my hometown. I saw them at that time. It was born interesting and brought it back, but I didn’t expect the things it made to be so useful.”

Chen Xing only thought that his experience along the way was really interesting, and didn't continue to ask any further questions. Then, he took the simple pen and started to write on the sand table with great interest.

Gu Lang's eyes fell on Chen Xing, watching him brush his hair up and down for convenience, revealing his slender and fair neck, staring blankly for a while, staring at the exposed delicate skin, feeling An urge to bite.

"Gu Lang, look quickly!"

It wasn't until Chen Xing finished writing the words that Gu Lang had taught these days, and excitedly pulled his sleeves and called his name, that he suddenly came back to his senses, and slowly looked away, as if nothing had happened As before, he put his eyes on the sand table and looked at the words he wrote.

Gu Lang looked at the handwriting that was much better than the previous few days. Under Chen Xing's bright and expectant eyes, he nodded slowly and praised: "You write very well, and you are very talented in this area. .”

Chen Xing was a little embarrassed by Gu Lang's praise, and he gripped the pen a little stronger, showing a little shyness on his face, "I think I still have room for improvement. Don't keep praising me, I would feel embarrassed."

Gu Lang looked at him and smiled silently. He felt that Chen Xing must have never seen him now, and told him not to praise him, but his eyes were shining brightly on him, as if a big fish had been caught and was about to catch a big fish. A shy cat who waits for praise from its owner.

Even though he was thinking like this, Gu Lang didn't say it out, but looked at him and said dotingly, "Okay."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xing's face turned red as expected.

Chen Xing turned his head away in embarrassment, pretending to continue practicing, avoiding Gu Lang's gentle gaze.

Soon, as more and more words were written, Chen Xing's excited mood gradually calmed down, and they also started today's teaching tasks.

The two spent a very warm time as usual. After Gu Lang finished today's teaching task, Chen Xing suddenly remembered what he was going to discuss with Gu Lang today. He took advantage of the gap when Gu Lang was packing up and said softly : "I have something to discuss with you."

Gu Lang put the books back on the shelf, turned his head to look at Chen Xing who was staring at him seriously, with a little more seriousness on his face, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

Chen Xing licked his somewhat dry lips, and said softly, "I'm going to rent a shop for a while."

Seeing Chen Xing's serious expression at first, I thought he was going to say something important, but I didn't expect it to be such a trivial matter. Gu Lang smiled at him again, and said softly: "This is a good thing!"

Chen Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "It's just that, the dowry money I owe you will have to be postponed again before I can pay it back."

Hearing Chen Xing's words, Gu Lang's eyes changed for a moment. He didn't expect that Chen Xing was still thinking about this matter after so long, and the eyes staring at him suddenly dimmed a bit.

Chen Xing was keenly aware of Gu Lang's change, and his face became cautious. Looking at him, he asked cautiously, "Are you angry?"

Looking at the vigilant Chen Xing, Gu Lang immediately realized what was wrong just now, his face returned to normal little by little, and returned to the original gentle and jade-like appearance, chuckled and said: "No, why should I be angry?"

Looking at Gu Lang's gentle smiling face, Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang was really angry at that moment just now, but he was still not sure what Gu Lang was angry about. He stared at Gu Lang carefully and asked, "Because I can't Pay your money back on time, so you are not happy?"

Seeing Chen Xing's cautious appearance, Gu Lang burst out laughing, raised his hand and patted his forehead, and said softly, "How could I be angry with you because of such a trivial matter? Such an idea?"

Chen Xing covered his aching head, blinked his eyes, and looked at Gu Lang with some confusion, so he didn't seem to understand what he was talking about.

Gu Lang stared at his beautiful eyes, and said in a tone of [-]% pampering and [-]% helpless, "You, why do you keep thinking about paying back my dowry?"
