Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 816 Misunderstanding escalates
One suppressed his voice in an attempt to calm the matter, while the other was afraid that the little girl across from him wouldn't hear. He craned his neck and wanted to click Shen Luoxin's name.

Except for Mr. Chen, everyone in the Chen family didn't know what was going on. Besides, it was always the first time to have a meal with the elders. They were always restrained. They just ate in a proper manner and listened quietly. I suddenly heard the old lady say this, although I felt that it was It makes sense, but it feels indescribably weird - a plate of shrimps, and you still have to fight for it? How much does Miss Ji like butterfly shrimp? Thinking like this, the chopsticks became more and more afraid to reach into the plate.

The old lady meant something, and Ji Wuyan naturally understood it.

She knew what Shen Luoxin was thinking, but she always felt that her brother didn't seem to have such intentions, so she didn't want to deliberately match him - not to mention that although her brother was good, it was because he was the older brother. As a husband, if you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing good about him... He is too busy, and it is difficult to see him even when he is busy. He is really not a good husband. So she just smiled and picked up a butterfly shrimp and put it in the old lady's bowl. She pretended not to understand and said with a smile, "No need to grab it...it's a big plate, you can eat it too..."

This little girl who makes jokes!
The old lady glared at her, and after all she ate the shrimp in the bowl, she yawned lazily and said with a smile, "At my age, I just have a dinner, and I feel a little sleepy. That's all. That’s all, I’m going to have a rest first. Sitting here will ruin your interest. You can eat slowly and have fun. It’s okay.”

Everyone stood up to see each other off. The old lady waved her hands, walked two steps and then turned around and told Shangguan Chu, "After dinner, you will send all the girls back to the courtyard safely. Do you understand?"

...Under the same roof, it’s just a few steps away to eat after a meal, and why do you still need to send it back? Although he was so slanderous in his heart, Shangguan Chu still agreed honestly, "Yes, my grandson knows. You should rest early." He had a kind of respect for this grandmother that had already been engraved in his blood. He watched the old lady enter the house, then turned around and sat down, inviting everyone to sit down and eat.

When I lowered my head, I saw the shrimp that my grandmother had picked up in the bowl. I was slightly startled, but finally shook my head, smiled, picked it up and ate it.

Although the old lady asked everyone to "eat slowly and have fun", after all, they were in the elders' courtyard. The elders had gone back to their houses to rest. The atmosphere in this courtyard was much quieter than before, and Shen Luoxin stopped talking. , just poured another glass of wine and drank. Shangguan Chu didn't know her drinking capacity, so he wanted to stop her, but Ji Wuyan stopped her.

"It doesn't matter." Ji Wuyan shook his head and lowered his voice, "They have been tired for several days and slept for a long time in the afternoon. If they have something on their minds, they may not be able to rest well at night, so they might as well drink some wine to help them. Sleep aid."

Of course what Ji Wuyan was talking about was referring to the prescription for the epidemic, but Shangguan Chu was misunderstood, thinking that Ji Wuyan was alluding to his previous incident, and snorted lightly, "What can she be worried about? I see that she has become very close to Miss Chen these days, and they are so inseparable that they almost wear a pair of pants."

Shangguan Chu has rarely been so obviously yin and yang.

When Ji Wuyan was full, he put down his chopsticks and looked at Shangguan Chu strangely: Brother... something is wrong. Tasty? But Chen Qi is from a girl's family, so how could Shangguan Chu be so naive that he even finds it annoying to get close to a girl's family? She took the tea cup handed over by Zi Qiu, rubbed it thoughtfully for a long time, smiled suddenly, turned to look at Chen Song, "Mr. Chen, have you drank too?"

Chen Song nodded, "Well, not much, only half a cup."

Ji Wuyan asked Imperial Physician Chen again, "Where is Imperial Physician Chen? Have a drink?"

Dr. Chen waved his hands repeatedly and explained with a smile, "No, no, no...I don't drink any wine, I can't, I can't. Others drink it by the glass, but I get drunk after just one sip. Now I feel like I'm in a trance when I smell the wine." ...Haha, shame, shame." "Is Doctor Chen still waiting to return home?" Ji Wuyan asked again, smiling gently and calmly, but Shangguan Chu always felt that the look in this little girl's eyes was weird and calculating, like a little fox.

Doctor Chen should have said, "If you want it, I'll order some mao tomorrow. It's closer to my home."

Ji Wuyan asked again, "What about Brother Yinuo and Miss Chen Qi?"

Chen Qi naturally wouldn't answer. She glanced at Ji Wuyan quietly and quickly looked away. Chen Yinuo replied, "I and Qiqi will stay at the house tonight and bother Miss Ji."

Ji Wuyan smiled obviously, "It doesn't matter, it's not a nuisance. In that case, I will take Mr. Chen back to the courtyard later, and I will take Dr. Chen out of the house. Brother Yinuo will go back with Miss Chen Qi. As for Luo Xin... I'll ask my brother to send him off for me." His eyes reflected the light of the stone lantern in the courtyard, with a dark and cunning look.

They were obviously interchangeable, but she arranged it like this. Her intention was too obvious. Shangguan Chu pinched his brows, but did not refuse. He did have something to say, just in time...

But Shen Luoxin repeatedly refused, "No, I'm not a guest. I can walk in your place in the dark... Besides, Mr. Chen and I live close to each other. I'll go back with him. You can just send Chen off." The doctor will be fine, it’s getting late, so I’ll have a rest earlier.”

He spoke righteously, but his eyes were flustered and evasive, looking at the sky and the earth but not in Ji Wuyan's direction - mainly because he didn't want to look in Shangguan Chu's direction.

She... was a little resentful after all, because the other party misunderstood that she gave the veil to Bai Xue, and she was timid and took a piece of cloud brocade silk for herself in vain. She had thought about it and waited until the ready-made clothes were made. She paid off the money. After all, this was neither a relative nor a friend, and she was really embarrassed to take such an expensive thing for nothing.

Hearing her refusal, Shangguan Chu's eyes were slightly cold, and he lowered the corner of his mouth and said, "What the old man told me must always be in accordance with her wishes. Besides, I saw that you drank a lot just now, and you will feel drunk later." It’s possible to not be able to see the road in the dark, but if you sleep in a nook and cranny all night and catch the wind and cold, it will be a lot of trouble.”

They were originally words of concern, but when they were said with a cold face, they became more reprimanding.

In addition, it was because of his illness that he caused many of the following incidents. These words sounded even more different to Shen Luoxin, and he felt aggrieved and angry. These emotions were mixed together, and even he felt that he was He was so pretentious that he was unfamiliar, and the glances around him were more or less inquisitive or concerned, and it was like sharp thorns piercing him.

She stood up quickly, biting her lip and looking like she was about to cry in the dim night. She looked at Ji Wuyan and said in a low voice, "I'm done eating, let's go first." After saying that, she left the table leaving the people in the courtyard behind.

Like running away.
