Bai Shu got into the carriage and followed Lao Feng to Xie Huaiyu's house.

As if pinpointing the timing, the kitchen presented the freshly prepared dishes one by one.

Seeing Bai Shu came, Xie Huaiyu asked him to sit down, poured another cup of tea, let him moisten his throat first.

"Huh? What about Mr. Qi?" Bai Shu was a little surprised when he didn't see Qi Qinyue. He remembered that Qi Qinyue was still clamoring for a bear's paw in the morning.

"He still has official business to do, so he took people away long ago." Xie Huaiyu said.

With Qi Qinyue here, he always gets in between him and Bai Shu, which is extremely annoying.

In the afternoon, he agreed to Qi Qinyue's meal money for half a year in Fulou, and forced him to send him away.

Thinking of this, Xie Huaiyu glanced at Baishu, and seemed dissatisfied that Baishu still remembered Qi Qinyue, so he pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Why are you mentioning other people when the food is here? With him here, the table is full of delicacies." I'm afraid it would have been swept away long ago."

Bai Shu had been busy all day, so he just ate a little at noon. Sitting at the table at this time, when Xie Huaiyu mentioned it, his index finger was already twitching, and he wanted to eat it right away.

He looked at the several dishes on the table. The main course was bear's paw, served in a porcelain cup.In addition, there are river prawns, fish fillets and other dishes, which are mixed with red spicy peppers, which look delicious and delicious.

Bai Zhu lifted the cover covering the bear's paw, and saw two balls of burnt-yellow balls inside, which looked quite elastic, and a circle of vegetable decorations drenched in sauce on the outside.

Xie Huaiyu pointed to the two scorched objects and said: "This is the bear's paw, also known as one of the eight treasures. It is said that when the bear hibernates in winter, the palms are often licked in the cave, so they are particularly nourished. Fat."

Xie’s bear’s paw is stewed with old hen, pork knuckle and fresh ham. After the stew is soft and rotten, the essence of those things is absorbed, and then other ingredients are discarded. Only the soup is thickened with caramel. To tasty.

Xie Huaiyu scooped it lightly with a porcelain spoon, and he scooped off a piece of the bear's paw and put it into the Baishu bowl.

Bai Shu couldn't wait to taste it, and after eating it, she felt a little disappointed.

The taste of this bear paw is really good, with the umami flavor of chicken soup, pork knuckle, and ham, and it is soft and soft.But that's all, it's not much different from ordinary beef and pig's tendon, far worse than what Bai Shu imagined.

Seeing Bai Shu's expression changed, Xie Huaiyu smiled slightly and asked, "Do you think this bear's paw is nothing more than that?"

Bai Shu didn't expect to be seen through by Xie Huaiyu, so he nodded and said: "It is indeed not as delicious as imagined."

"Actually, bear's paw is said to be one of the eight treasures, but it's just because it's rare." Xie Huaiyu said: "Among the nobles in the royal palaces in Beijing, comparisons are especially fierce."

"When it comes to food, I have to compare myself with others. Common ingredients such as beef trotters and pig trotters, even if they are made into flowers, how can they satisfy their psychology. But bear paws are different. Kumamoto is rare and difficult to hunt. A bear only has a few lumps of meat like bear paws. Rare things are more valuable, and the bear paws are so precious that they can show the different identities of the people who eat them, so they are considered one of the eight treasures."

Speaking of this, Xie Huaiyu laughed twice as if remembering something: "Actually, this bear paw has a fishy smell, and it is extremely unpalatable if it is not cooked properly. Once, I participated in the class reunion in Beijing, and there was this dish at the banquet. Bear's paw. The cook was not good at that time, so I didn't take a bite. But during the banquet, many students had never eaten this thing, so they ate it bravely, and even praised how delicious it was."

When Bai Shu heard this, he also laughed: "Can't they eat something delicious?"

"Even if you can eat it, you can't eat it." Xie Huaiyu said, and put a fish fillet with chopsticks into the Baishu bowl: "People in Beijing are complicated, and eating is not just eating, sometimes eating One identity. After a long time, I don’t even know what I like to eat.”

"That's too tiring." Bai Shu thought for a while, shaking his head, and said, "If you can't even eat happily, how much less fun is life? Isn't it putting the cart before the horse?"

"Yes." Xie Huaiyu nodded in agreement, looked at Bai Shu for a moment and said, "It's not easy to know what you want. So once you know, you must take care of it wholeheartedly, and you must not let it suffer." half of the damage, so as not to regret it later."

Although Xie Huaiyu's words were about eating, but his eyes kept falling on Bai Shu's face, with a bit of helpless emotion.

Bai Shu listened and felt a little uncomfortable. He lowered his head, feeling that what Xie Huaiyu said just now was referring to himself.

He ran to the mountains earlier, but he didn't return all night. He was afraid that he made the other party very anxious. Hearing Xie Huaiyu's words now made him feel even more ashamed.

"Did you receive the note I asked Old Feng to bring to you?" Xie Huaiyu said suddenly.

Bai Shu was taken aback for a moment, then remembered about the note, took it out from his pocket and said, "Got it."

"Do you still know the words on it?" Xie Huaiyu asked again.

"Of course I know it..." Bai Shu glanced at Xie Huaiyu with some trepidation.

He came in and looked at the dishes on the table, thinking that Xie Huaiyu was joking with him, and had forgotten about the punishment, but he didn't expect Xie Huaiyu to mention it again after talking for a while.

At this time, Bai Shu was a little confused, and he didn't know what Xie Huaiyu wanted to punish him for?

When he was punished last time, Xie Huaiyu wrote his name on his neck.The punishment made him feel elated, and he didn't feel uncomfortable at all, on the contrary, he was happy for several days.

This time, do you want to write on him?Bai Shu recalled what happened that day, her face was a little red.

Seeing his appearance, Xie Huaiyu teased him with a smile in his eyes, "Looking at your appearance, do you think of something good? Why don't you tell me about it?"

Bai Shu was even more embarrassed now, and quickly said: "Nothing, I just don't know what you want to punish me for, could it be writing again?"

"Wouldn't that be cheaper for you?" Xie Huaiyu chuckled and said, "I told you a long time ago, since you want to be my man, then your whole body is mine. Don't hurt even a little bit." ..."

"I'm really not hurt at all." Bai Shu said hastily, and even lifted up his sleeves to show Xie Huaiyu: "Look, I didn't hurt at all, but a piece of clothing was damaged. I paid attention to it."

After finishing speaking, I remembered that Xie Huaiyu's arms were scratched, and I couldn't help feeling sorry for him.Then he lowered his head and said, "However, your arm was hurt, and you hurt it because you were looking for me. In this way, it's still my fault."

"Since I know I was wrong, I must not do it next time." Xie Huaiyu said, he was really scared.

But it was also because of this that he realized that Baishu was so important to him.

"Then you punish!" Bai Shu said with a generous neck.Since he hurt Xie Huaiyu, he deserved to be fined twice.

"Okay." Xie Huaiyu raised the corners of his mouth and said, "It seems that you are not afraid of writing, so I will punish you severely this time, so that you will learn a lesson and punish you not to eat with your hands."

Bai Shu: "..."

He was a little depressed looking at the dishes on the table. He couldn't eat with his hands, so how could he eat?

Bai Zhu, who had been hungry all day, swallowed and said, "Then there is no way to pick up vegetables..."

"It's okay..." Xie Huaiyu said, took a porcelain plate, put some of the dishes on the table into the porcelain plate, and confiscated the chopsticks in front of him.

He asked Bai Shu to put his hands behind his back, then took out a silk handkerchief, and tied Bai Shu's hands.

Seeing that Xie Huaiyu was so serious, Bai Shu had no choice but to accept his fate.

He lowered his head and ate the food on the plate with his mouth.Bai Shu's body is nimble, and such movements are actually quite beautiful.

I saw that he used his teeth to pick up a piece of fish fillet and put it into his mouth, it was very smooth, but even so, after eating for a while, he still got a face of soup, which flowed down his chin, very embarrassing.

Seeing his appearance, Xie Huaiyu laughed out loud.Bai Shu was embarrassed, his face flushed red, and he felt that Xie Huaiyu was punished too harshly this time.

Being so embarrassed in front of his favorite male is something he will never forget.

Only then did Xie Huaiyu pick up the cotton towel beside him, pinch Bai Zhu's chin, and wipe the soup on his face carefully.

After wiping it clean, Bai Zhu sat in the banquet with a dejected face, looked at Xie Huaiyu one by one, and didn't want to eat anything.

Seeing this, Xie Huaiyu said, "You can't use your hands, but it's not that you can't use your mouth. Why don't you come and beg me?"

As he spoke, he picked up a chopstick and sent the peeled shrimp to Bai Zhu's mouth: "Eat..."

Bai Shu opened her mouth obediently, and ate the shrimp, Xie Huaiyu gave him something else.

Only then did Bai Shu know that Xie Huaiyu couldn't use his hands when he spoke, but he actually asked him to ask the other party to feed him.

His face was hot, and he felt that this was more shameful than letting him eat it directly with his mouth.

I ate with Xie Huaiyu, how could I let him feed me?

Xie Huaiyu fed Baishu for a while, with a soft expression on his face, always smiling, as if he was very happy.

Only then did Bai Shu get used to it slowly, and gradually felt that being fed by Xie Huaiyu didn't seem to be a bad thing.

Xie Huaiyu fed a piece of fish fillet with chopsticks to Bai Zhu's mouth again, Bai Zhu opened his mouth to eat, but the fish fillet backed away as if it had grown legs.He moved forward, and the fillet retreated again.

It was Xie Huaiyu who became playful and teased him to play.

Bai Zhu was a little annoyed, but became serious again, thinking that she must eat that fish fillet.

As soon as Xie Huaiyu stretched out his chopsticks again, he stood up and threw himself forward...

In the end, he didn't eat the fish fillet, but he used too much force and bumped his head into Xie Huaiyu's arms.

Bai Shu was half sitting on Xie Huaiyu's lap at the moment, his whole body was stiff.I want to get up quickly, but my hands are behind my back, I'm not balanced, and I can't use my strength.

Xie Huaiyu's voice was next to his ears, and he said in a low hoarse voice: "You were very bold last night, why are you so shy now?"

Reminding Bai Shu to think of the scene where he threw himself on Xie Huaiyu and hugged him tightly, his face became even hotter.

Xie Huaiyu's body was fragrant, with the smell of green pine.

It was summer at this time, and both of them were wearing thin clothes.

His body temperature was transmitted to Bai Shu's body through a thin layer of clothing, making Bai Shu gradually calm down.

What are the chances of being able to sit with Xie Huaiyu like this?Thinking of this, Bai Shu simply broke the jar.He didn't want to get up either, but buried his head on Xie Huaiyu's shoulder and rubbed it lightly.

Xie Huaiyu's arms are really comfortable...

Bai Shu buried his head at this time, and couldn't see Xie Huaiyu's expression, only felt the other's hand covering his head, touching it one after another.It slid down the neck again, gently stroking all the way across the back, staying near his waist.

He leaned on Xie Huaiyu's shoulder, listening to the beating of his heart in his chest, it seemed to be beating a little faster.

After a long time, Xie Huaiyu covered his hands with one hand, untied Sipa and said, "Get up and eat, if you don't eat the food, it will be cold."

His voice seemed to be a little hoarse than before, his peach eyes were dark, and there seemed to be a trace of desire and fire that could not be concealed.

However, he didn't touch Bai Zhu any more, just refilled the rice for him, and returned the chopsticks to him: "Why don't you eat soon?"

"Woo." Bai Shu nodded regretfully, and started to eat.

He still wants to hug Xie Huaiyu for a while longer!

After the meal, Bai Shu told Xie Huaiyu that he wanted to go to Fucheng to dispose of the harvested antler and wolf skin.

Xie Huaiyu thought for a while and said, "It's better to rest for another day. I have something to do in the day after tomorrow, so I just happen to go there with you."

Bai Shu nodded, feeling very happy inside.

Not counting the time he took Li'er to the county to see a doctor, he had never gone out with Xie Huaiyu before!

In Beijing, Xie Qi came to Xiankeju again. This time, he came alone...

That time he and Hu Ziying and others came over to drink flower wine, and originally wanted to call the brother who played the piano to accompany him.But that brother walked away without any pretense, and said that he was a showman rather than a person...

Xie Qi pestered her for a while, but she didn't even see the brother's full face, so she was invited out.

Most men, especially powerful people like Xie Qi, are more interested in the rarer things.

Xie Qi was originally only three-point interested in this brother, but after being rejected like this, it became seven-point.

After going back, I dreamed about it for a few days, and went to other places to eat wine, but I couldn't find that taste.Distraught, he couldn't help but walked in the direction of Xiankeju.

He only came here today, but he didn't see that brother playing the piano.After asking, I realized that although the brother is here to perform, but whether he wants to receive guests or not depends entirely on his own will, and he can't help but feel very disappointed.

Looking at the woman who was drinking with him beside him, although she was also elegant and charming, she lacked two points of beauty after all.

Xie Qi felt bored, so she got up with her wine glass and walked around the fairy house.Walking deep into the courtyard, I heard the sound of the curling piano, which was played by my brother that day.

Xie Qi hurriedly walked towards the direction of the sound of the piano, and saw a pavilion in the pond from a distance, with a guqin inside, and the brother she saw that day was playing the piano in it.

Until today, Xie Qi finally saw the whole picture of that brother.

Without the veil to cover it up, that brother's appearance was as beautiful as he imagined.Moreover, he has a slender figure, if it weren't for the red mole on his forehead, it would be impossible to say that he is a woman.

The brother seemed to sense someone in front of him, and when he looked up, his peach blossom eyes were full of affection.

Seeing that it was Xie Qi standing in front, she couldn't help turning around immediately, not daring to look at him again.

At this time, Xie Qi was full of joy, feeling more and more that this brother was out of the world and different from ordinary brothel sons.

He strode forward, raised the brother's head with a folding fan and asked, "Little brother is so out of this world, may I ask Gao's name?"

The brother hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The villain's status is humble, and he dare not report his name. If you don't think so, you can call the villain Shu'er."

Only then did Xie Qi call him Shu'er with a hint of affection.

And that Shu'er was none other than Lin Shuyu who disappeared from Xie's house half a month ago.

Ever since he was suddenly taken away from the room that night, he was secretly happy at first, but as he walked, the group of servants did not take him to Xie Huaiyu's room, but pushed him forcibly. He got into a carriage and drove directly away from Xie's house.

Lin Shuyu was afraid and frightened at that time, for fear that Mr. Xie would be unhappy and sell him out, or push him into the mountains to kill him.

At that time, he only needs to be accused of running away by himself, and no one will know his whereabouts.

The carriage bumped all night, causing Lin Shuyu to vomit several times.

When the sky was slightly bright, he heard voices outside, and realized that he seemed to have returned to the capital again.

The carriage drove into a yard, and several servants pushed him out of the carriage.

Lin Shuyu was taken into another room and locked up for a whole day without even giving him saliva, making him think that he was going to die of hunger and thirst.

That night, a few maidservants came to Lin Shuyu's room. After grooming him, they said they would take him to see their master.

Frightened, he put on the brocade clothes and was led into a room.Behind the screen of the room was the man who wanted to see him.

Then, the man said to him, let him seduce Xie Qi, the second son of the Xie family...

Xie Qi is Mrs. Xie's direct son, and he was bought by Mrs. Xie as a gift to Mr. Xie.

If Mrs. Xie knew that he seduced her son in turn, wouldn't she have to skin him on the spot?

Lin Shuyu wanted to refuse, but the man said, if you don't want to, then it's worthless.Either be sent to the Northwest as a military prostitute, or sold directly to a brothel in the south, the choice is yours.

Lin Shuyu had no choice but to agree to seduce Xie Qi.

But he also made a clear statement with the man, asking the other party to protect himself.

He chose this path, which meant he was tied to the same boat as that man, and Mrs. Xie would never let him go.

The man laughed lightly and said: "I see that you are also a smart person, so I'll tell you straight. You follow Mr. Xie, he doesn't want to see you and don't say anything. After the Lou family has used you up, he'll tell you the truth." I will kick it away. But if you seduce Xie Qi, I will try to get you a name. If you follow Xie Qi, even if you are a concubine, you are still in the Earl's Mansion. Madam Xie dare not touch you. days will not be sad."

Thinking of this, Lin Shuyu looked at Xie Qi who was full of obscenity in front of her. Although she felt disgusted in her heart, she didn't show it at all.

His eyes were lowered, and there seemed to be flashes of light and shadow in his eyes, as if he was shy and ruthless, causing Xie Qi's heart to be turbulent again...

·

The next day, Bai Shu settled the affairs in the village properly, and went to Xie Huaiyu's house early in the morning.

A carriage was already waiting at the gate of Xie's house, Bai Shu went up and saw Xie Huaiyu and Xiaoshu already sitting in the carriage.

Xie Huaiyu was startled when he saw Bai Shu getting into the car. He found that Bai Shu had on his forehead the azure forehead wipe he had given him earlier.

Seeing Xie Huaiyu's expression, Bai Shu touched his head in embarrassment and said, "You gave it to me last time. You said that it was inconvenient for me to walk because of my elder brother's status in Fucheng, so I also brought it this time."

The last time Baishu entered the city alone, Xie Huaiyu was not at ease, so he said this.But this time with him personally accompanying him, the other party will not be deceived by anyone in Fucheng.

However, since Bai Shu had already brought a mop on his forehead, Xie Huaiyu felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he praised him for being very cute.

The sky blue color matches Baishu's complexion, very nice, he remembered that the other party had a sky blue shirt before, but it's a pity that he didn't wear it later.

Xiaoshu sat on the side, listening to the two people complimenting each other all the way, his big teeth were so sore that they were about to fall out.

The words that Bai Shu boasted about his young master are still true, even though it sounds disgusting.

But his young master praised Bai Shu for being cute and good-looking all the way, and said that he was becoming more and more well-behaved.He just wanted to roll his eyes when he heard it, and then looked at the taller and stronger Bai Shu, thinking that his young master was blind.

When they went to Fucheng this time, they still took the waterway from the county pier.

Before that, you have to go to the leather goods store in the county seat and find a cobbler to get the processed leather.

Last time, Bai Shu gave the cobbler six wolf skins and one bear skin.

But within three days, the cobbler had already dealt with everything.

Both wolf and bear fur are hard, but extremely warm.Especially the wolf fur, which is gray and white, and the coat color is shiny, and it looks good.

Bai Shu couldn't bear to sell all the leathers, so he chose the two most beautiful ones and kept them for Xie Huaiyu to make leather jackets to wear.

The other bear skins were also brought back by Xie Huaiyu to be made into boots.

Wear it in winter, even in heavy snow, it is very warm and will not be soaked by snow water.

The remaining four skins were rolled up by Atractylodes macrocephala and taken to Fucheng together with the antlers to sell.

This time, because of Xie Huaiyu's presence, they didn't need to take the ferry to Fucheng.

Xie Huaiyu asked Xiaoshu to charter a small boat and run for a tael of silver a day.

Xie Huaiyu kept a low profile, so the boat he chartered was also very ordinary.

Besides them, many businessmen also chartered the same small boats. A group of small boats sailed in the river, taking care of each other, and they didn't feel lonely.

Bai Shu sat on the side of the boat, feeling completely different from last time.

Not long after he came to Daxuan Dynasty last time, he was inevitably still a little apprehensive, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional when looking at the scenery on the river.

Now sitting with Xie Huaiyu, looking at the scenery of the two banks again, I only feel that the scenery is more beautiful and full of vitality.

"The scenery on both sides of the strait is so beautiful." Bai Shu said to Xie Huaiyu.

Xie Huaiyu nodded, and the corners of his mouth relaxed a bit: "This year, the weather in the south of the Yangtze River is good, and the people's livelihood is also good, so we can get this prosperous scene."

He didn't say anything to Bai Shu, this prosperous scene is only one place, hundreds of miles away, in the north of Daxuan, there are continuous wars and droughts, it is another scene.

This time he went to Fucheng with Baishu. First, he wanted to accompany Baishu. The most important thing was that Zhongli wrote to him a few days ago, saying that he needed 30 shi of grain for disaster relief in northern Xinjiang, and asked him to help him find a way.

Although Xie Huaiyu is in charge of the huge property of the Tang family, 30 shi of grain is really not something that can be scraped together.If there is not enough, you can only go outside to buy.

This time, Xie Huaiyu came to Fucheng to check several grain stores in Fucheng to see how much grain he could get together.

The boat also drove very fast, and within an hour, it had already sailed to Fucheng.

This time, the boat docked at the east pier, and Bai Shu came ashore once, and went ashore with ease, looking for a pharmacy on the commercial street.

The businesses on the commercial street are all clustered together, and Bai Shu walked to a place where pharmacies gathered.

There were five shops selling medicinal materials in a row, and he was hesitating which one to go to, Xie Huaiyu said from the side: "Go to the biggest one, the shop is bigger, the price is more generous, there are some guarantees. "

As for himself, he wanted to go to the nearby grain store while Bai Zhu was selling velvet antlers.

This grain store is the main store of his several grain stores in Fucheng. He needs to go to the person in charge to ask how much grain and grass Fucheng can mobilize.

The author has something to say: These two people are really wearing filters for each other~ In Xie Huaiyu's eyes, Bai Shu is a weak and cute girl~
