Rebirth: Picking up a Little Husband

As the name suggests, Hongshu is a man of gentle manners, but Li Chuyao knows that he has a firm heart and is a manager. If you entrust him with many things, he can always achieve results that exceed your satisfaction.

Staying by his side as a servant in his previous life was a real waste of talent.

Mo's expression was indifferent, and he looked very unapproachable, especially similar to Gu Lai's cold face.Li Chuyao couldn't help sighing, it's not that the whole family doesn't enter the house.

Li Chuyao didn't regard the two of them as subordinates, he beckoned and signaled them to sit down and eat together.

Gu Lai glanced at Li Chuyao with surprise on his face.

Li Chuyao smiled and said: "With me, you will be my family if you follow me from now on."

Hong Shu and Mo looked at each other, their stiff bodies finally relaxed, but they didn't dare to move, just stood where they were.

Gu Lai mixed the porridge in the mixing bowl with a spoon, and said slowly: "Sit down, I don't have your contract of prostitution, so I don't care what we do."

If Gu Lai's words were changed by someone else, not only would it arouse suspicion, but maybe the two of them would not be reused.However, Li Chuyao understood that Gu Lai was just setting aside the relationship, respecting his own decision, and not treating Hong Shu and Mo Yi as ordinary people.

"Sit down, there's nothing taboo." Li Chuyao beckoned, and asked Xiao Er to bring three sets of bowls and chopsticks, and added side dishes and steamed buns.

Hong Shu cupped his hands and saluted, "Thank you, my lord."

Mo Yi followed suit, still silent.

Li Chuyao waved his hand, signaling that it's okay.

In the other courtyard of the Su family, Su Guan's family ran in with the letter. He has been diligent in recent days, and it was probably Li Chuyao's words that woke him up.

Although Su Yu was curious about Steward Su's changes, he didn't ask much.

"Young master, this is a letter from the master."

"My father?" Su Yu frowned. Don't you usually send letters in Liu Xiu's name?

Butler Su didn't know why, but it was indeed a letter from the master.

Su Yu opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, and shook it open.

The letter said:

Yu'er, the wedding date has been set, the [-]th of next month.

The road to Yinan is far away, and there are many bandits and bandits around. I hope you can understand, and we will not travel across mountains and rivers.

The dowry will be sent directly to Li's house to avoid danger on the way.Also, your mother asked the old lady of the Li family, and said that the second son of Li will return to Yecheng sooner or later, and you can pick it up at that time.

Take care of yourself, don't read.

When Su Yu saw the last word, he couldn't help tightening the hand holding the letter paper, biting his lips with his teeth, and pursed them into a straight line, a trace of loneliness and grievance appeared on his clear face.

Zhi Xia and Steward Su looked at each other in blank dismay.

Su Yu wasn't in the mood to care about them, so he passed them into the house and closed the door tightly.

"What's the matter?" Steward Su hesitated and didn't know what to say.

Zhi Xia glanced at the closed door and sighed, probably the master said something heartbreaking again.

In the past, Liu Xiu's cynicism and sarcastic sarcasm were over, Su Yu didn't care if she wasn't her biological mother after all.

But master... Zhi Xia stomped her foot, how could she be so biased!

Near noon, the door of the room was still closed, and Su Yu directly refused when Zhi Xia brought food.

She anxiously walked back and forth at the door, making Steward Su dizzy, he stepped forward to stop Zhi Xia, and suggested, "Why don't I go invite Mr. Li?"

Zhi Xia glanced inside, hesitated and said, "Is this okay?"

"Then you can't let the young master sulk?"

Zhi Xia suspected that he was restless and kind, so he hesitated and didn't answer.

Steward Su didn't care about her being a little girl, so he made up his mind and got up to leave.

Zhi Xia stared at Steward Su's back in a daze for a while, then leaned on the door again, and knocked, "My lord, are you hungry? How about I reheat the food and bring it to you?"

"no need."

Su Yu's voice was indifferent, and he couldn't tell whether he was more sad or disappointed.

Zhi Xia sighed, sat on the stone steps, propped her cheeks with her hands.

When Steward Su arrived at the inn, Li Chuyao and Linwei were about to go to Uncle Qiong to look at the house.

Looking at each other, Li Chuyao looked surprised.

"Second Young Master, can you speak further?" Steward Su smiled apologetically at Linwei.

Li Chuyao raised his eyebrows, and followed Steward Su a few steps to the side, "Butler Su, what's the matter?"

"Second son, it's like this. Today, my son received a letter from the master. He has been locked in the house since the morning, and he hasn't come out for lunch. We can't persuade him..." Steward Su looked embarrassed.

Although he is Liu Xiu's person, it does not prevent him from gaining favor in front of other people.

What's more, this person has a kindness for him.

Li Chuyao frowned, and expressed anger in his tone, "You didn't send the food to his room?"

"This... Young Master, no one will be allowed in, even Zhi Xia won't listen, let alone us..." Steward Su's face was aggrieved, and his tone was helpless.

Li Chuyao glanced at him, and waved to Linwei, "I'll let Hong Shu go with you about the house, he knows my preferences, and I have other things."

Linwei glanced at Steward Su and nodded.

Hong Shu changed into the clothes Li Chuyao specially prepared for him, and stood with Linwei, not like a servant, but like a master.

"Hongshu, can the affairs of the house be handled well?"

Hong Shu nodded, "Yes."

"Okay, you can make the decision." After explaining, Li Chuyao asked Mo Yi to follow him to Su's other courtyard.

Steward Su took the position of the groom with his familiarity. Li Chuyao suppressed his dissatisfaction and thanked Steward Su.

The carriage traveled unimpeded all the way and arrived at the place soon.

Li Chuyao got out of the carriage first, striding towards the yard, seeing Zhi Xia guarding the door, looking anxious and helpless, his worried heart suddenly calmed down.

"Mr. Li, young master...he..." Zhi Xia seemed to have seen the backbone, and recounted everything that happened in the morning in detail.

Li Chuyao nodded. He was just about to step forward when he saw that Butler Su didn't seem to be leaving. He gave Mo Yi a look, and the latter said politely, "Butler Su, I want to ask something."

Mo Yicheng didn't pay attention, and shook his hand in front of the person. The next second, Steward Su had already fallen to the ground.

Zhi Xia was taken aback, "Mr. Li, this is..."

"Let him be quiet for a while, Zhi Xia, you lead the way, let Mo Yi drag him to a quiet place, and bring some porridge over after work."

Zhi Xia nodded and led Mo Yi away.

Li Chuyao stepped forward and knocked on the door, and the person inside said impatiently: "Zhi Xia, I said no!"

"it's me."

The magnetic voice had a low-pitched taste, and there was a hint of anger in it.

Su Yu lay on the bed, stunned for a second, then sat up, touched his eyes, and hurried to open the door.

The moment the door opened, Li Chuyao's handsome face came into view.

His brows were slightly frowned, showing worry, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he looked very unfriendly. The moment he saw Su Yu, the blame in Li Chuyao's eyes turned into distress.

"Why are you here?" Su Yu's eyes dodged for a moment, it was the first time he saw such a fierce Li Chuyao.

"If I don't come, are you going to starve yourself for a few days?" Li Chuyao raised his hand and pinched his face, his hand was a little heavier, leaving a faint red mark.

Li Chuyao couldn't stop feeling distressed again, so he covered Su Yu's face with his hand and stroked it gently.

Su Yu's mood had been sorted out, but at this moment, it seemed that he was comforted, and tears filled his eyes.

Since his mother passed away, he has never been better in the past four years in the Su Mansion. Even if he was framed by Liu Xiu and forced to come to Yinan, he never cried weakly once, but the moment he was touched by Li Chuyao, he suddenly wanted to cry up.

Hot tears fell on his hands and burned into Li Chuyao's heart.

He pulled him into his arms and patted Su Yu on the back lightly, "Cry if you want to."

Su Yu clenched his clothes tightly, buried his face in his arms, and sobbed silently.

The warm touch spread across his chest, and Li Chuyao felt his heart ache, as if being stabbed again and again by fine and dense needles.

He kissed the top of Su Yu's head, and he almost forgot that Su Yu was just a 16-year-old boy, no matter how mature his heart was, and his emotions had been accumulated for a long time, he would have a day of collapse.

The two embraced together, and everything around them seemed empty, as if there were only the two of them in the world.

When Su Yu stopped crying, Li Chuyao let go of his arms and asked people to raise their heads. He wiped away the tears around Su Yu's eyes with his fingers, and then led the people inside.

Su Yu's emotions were over, and now he just felt embarrassed and flustered.

Li Chuyao pulled him to sit on the imperial concubine chair, "Can you tell me what happened?"

Su Yu was forced to sit on his lap, and moved a few times unnaturally.

Li Chuyao raised his hand to support his waist, scratched his nose with his hand, and asked guessingly, "But what did the letter say that made you unhappy?"

Su Yu sniffed, and handed over the letter in his arms.

Li Chuyao opened it for a closer look, and the frown deepened. He had already guessed that the Su family would not come, but the dowry was not sent to Yinan, and it was a bit far-fetched because of the long journey and fear of being robbed.

But he didn't say no to it, because he was going back to Yecheng, so Su Yu could just go back and pick it up, and he could make it through.

Li Chuyao looked down at Su Yu in his arms, and couldn't guess whether he was sad because of his mother's relics in the dowry, or because of Master Su's attitude.

Or both... both?

Su Yu didn't hear him, so she leaned her head against his neck and whispered: "My mother's valuable jewelry has long been used to supplement my expenses, except for some calligraphy and paintings written by her, there is nothing valuable object.

I also know that my father didn't like me since I was a child, but it's just that Liu's letters are usually written, but today I suddenly couldn't bear it. "

Su Yu's gentle voice was a bit hoarse and husky.

The flat tone, coupled with the content of the words, made people feel nervous.

Li Chuyao tightened his arms around his waist, pressed his face to his temples, and asked him softly, "Are you still sad?"

Su Yu raised his head and looked at each other, "You will not be sad if you are here."

"Stupid or not?" Li Chuyao pinched his nose, "Why didn't you let Zhi Xia call me?"

Su Yu touched his nose with his hand, as if the feeling from just now was still there, he said embarrassedly: "Forgot."
