Space takes me to ancient times

Chapter 204 The Legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl

Lingyou went for a long time, but there was still no one.Just when Qu You was getting impatient, the brothers of the Chu family stepped into the courtyard.Chu Yu frowned, Chu Xu smiled playfully, and Shen Yan made a cold voice of direct disdain.

"Ninth brother, your house is getting more and more lively." Shen Yan leaned on the long corridor with her chest in her arms.

"That's right, it's like singing a big show every day. You can perform a show without buying a ticket." Qu You got up, and a joke flashed in her bright phoenix eyes.

Chu Yu pursed his lips, the coldness in his eyes was as cold as a blade, he shouted angrily, "Come here, beat me to death with a stick."

Everyone was stunned, and their legs trembled involuntarily.Qu You shrugged, stepped back a few steps lightly, and made way for the open space in front of him.Girl, since you dare to do it, you must dare to do it. Don't expect her to be a good man and a faithful woman. At worst, I will burn more paper money when you die.

Cui'er stared blankly at Chu Yu, her originally clear eyes were stained with despair.How could it be like this, when Hui'er died, she still laughed to herself, laughing that she was overthinking herself, she didn't have that kind of appearance but wanted to seduce the prince, she deserved her death.But now it's only been one night, and it's her turn again.No no no, she can't die, she's different.Mammy once said that her every frown and smile is full of charm, no man will not be tempted, if the prince didn't find her, it must be the princess who is blocking her, as long as the princess dies, she will naturally replace her.Thinking about it, Cui'er's eyes were poisoned, she looked at Qu You resentfully, and jumped up.

"She knows martial arts." Everyone shouted.

Chu Yu reacted quickly, he stretched out his hand to pull Qu You, and then slapped it out with a palm wind.

"Pfft..." Blood spurted from Tweety's mouth.

Ziyan and Zimu flashed out from the darkness, took Tweety'er's arms from left to right, and pressed her firmly to the ground.

"Pick off her tendons."

Tweety looked up in disbelief, and looked at Chu Yu as if looking at a demon, "No, no, you can't do this to me, my lord." She twisted her body crazily, obviously unable to accept the consequences.

The dark guard didn't give Tweet any time, and slashed at her limbs with the knife in his hand. Tweet howled "Ah", and twitched convulsively all over.

Qu You sneered, there was no sympathy in his eyes, "Girl, where did you get the confidence to think that you can replace me when I die?"

Tweety's lips were bruised and her face was pale. She lay powerlessly on the ground, letting the sweat seep through her clothes.

Lingyou led Feng Xian into the hospital, just in time to see the scene in front of her, she pouted, regret flashed in her eyes.Miss, it's true that such a wonderful scene was not called to her, causing her to miss the good show.

"This old servant has seen the prince, concubine, and Shizi Shen." Feng Xian stepped forward trembling.

"Healed up?" Qu You asked.

"If you go back to the princess, it's ready."

Qu You nodded, and handed over the right to speak to Chu Yu.

"My lord, the old slave is not strict, please punish me." Feng Xian knelt down and waited for Chu Yu to punish him.

There was silence in the yard, only Tweety's groans could be heard.Qu You sighed softly, reached out and tugged at Chu Yu's lapel, "Forget it, there are many people in the house, and Butler Feng is recovering from his injuries. If it is difficult to buy, there will be mistakes." After she finished speaking, she raised her face to gather with Chu Yu. There was a lip print on his face 'baji'.

Chu Yu caressed his face, with a smile in his cold eyes, he stretched out his hand to wrap around Qu You's waist, lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "My lord, please show your sincerity."

Qu You pouted, and pushed him aside.Damn, push your nose on your face, please, please be sincere.Whether Ai agrees or disagrees, she is not her servant anyway, so she doesn't care.

Chu Yu held her tightly, not giving her another chance to escape, "Very well, my king agrees, agrees..." After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Feng Xian, "Today, it is the princess who intercedes; Wang Ding will punish him severely."

"Thank you lord, Xie wangfei, this servant will definitely beat this servant to ensure that this matter will never happen again." Feng Xian glanced at Qu You gratefully.

"This king is giving you a chance. If this happens again, you can ask yourself to leave the mansion and go back to your hometown to retire."

"Slave understands, thank you, my lord!"

Chu Yu gave Feng Xian a wink, and then entered the inner hall with her arms around Qu You. When passing by Cui'er, she didn't even look at her, and went around directly.

Regarding the person behind Tweety and why she knows martial arts, Chu Yu gave Feng Xian a day to investigate thoroughly.Feng Xian nodded, looking at Tweety's eyes full of anger, overthinking her own strength, thinking that she could climb up a branch and become a phoenix with a little beauty, and she didn't even look at who she was going to seduce, she just took it upon herself disgrace.

"Come here, let's go to punishment." In the compound, Feng Xian sneered and shouted.

In the courtyard, the bench was set up, the guard pressed Tweety on it, and the painted mahogany board greeted him fiercely.

what……

Qu You didn't even sit still when he heard a scream from outside.She stood up curiously, wanting to see what happened.

"Ninth brother and sister, your curiosity is too strong."

"His Royal Highness, aren't you curious about what happened in this courtyard?" Qu You asked back.

Chu Xu shook his head and smiled unnecessarily, "I'm not curious because..." He raised his eyebrows and paused on purpose.

Qu You opened his eyes wide, and leaned forward, "Because of what?"

"Because curiosity will kill the cat." After finishing speaking, Chu Xu laughed 'haha'.

Uh……

Qu You looked at him with a black face, wishing he could grab his proud face.

"Why do you come here when you have time?"

"Come to Mrs. Jiu to find some ways to grow rice." Shen Yan leaned on the chair and said carelessly.

"The rice is under experimentation. I don't know what the yield is now. How can I follow the trend?" Qu You shook his head in disapproval.

Shen Yan shrugged her shoulders, as if she didn't care, "Sister-in-Law Jiu only cares about experiments, and I'll make money when I grow up."

"Yes, yes, count me in." Chu Xu followed suit.

Qu You looked at Chu Yu nervously, feeling a little unsure about paying attention.The climate is different in the north and the south, and the soil nutrients are different. Even if the planting method is the same, but she has not seen the result yet, how can it pull others into the water.

"No, we will talk about it after this season has achieved results."

"Sister-in-law Jiu, don't worry, no matter what the result is, we will bear it ourselves." Shen Yan shouted.

"Yes, even if the harvest fails, we won't blame you." Chu Xu nodded.

Bah bah bah, sure enough... a dog can't spit out ivory.Qu You rolled his eyes at him, bowed his head and spat a few times hard on the ground.

Chu Xu picked up the tea and covered his face in embarrassment.

"Ah... I'm recruiting, I'm recruiting..." Tweety's roar came again from the courtyard.

Qu You's whole body trembled, and she automatically approached Chu Yu. Damn it, this is too intrusive. Those who don't know it think they've encountered a ghost.

With the soft jade in his bosom, Chu Yu was delighted.Through his coat, he rubbed Qu You's jade arm calmly, causing Qu You to dodge back and forth, feeling unbearably itchy.

Shen Yan turned her head, pretending to be serious and cleared her cough, "Brother Jiu, when will you consummate the marriage with Sister-in-law Jiu?"

As soon as the words came out, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"The eighth day of the next month." Chu Yu replied.

On the eighth day, Qu You looked up at him strangely, "Why aren't you on the seventh day?"

"This date is calculated by Qin Tianjian. It is a good day to marry on the eighth day of the seventh lunar month, and everything will be fine." Chu Xu put down his cup.

"However, the seventh day of July is so romantic." Qu You continued without giving up.

romantic……

"Ninth brother and sister, how do you explain the seventh day of the seventh month?"

"You bumpkin, I haven't even heard of the seventh day of the seventh month, so I won't say that I'm a member of the royal family." Qu You turned his head and gave him a disgusted look.

Chu Xu choked, his face flushed from being choked.

"The seventh day of the seventh month is also known as the Qixi Festival, Qiqiao Festival; it is said that on the seventh night of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, magpies build a bridge on the Milky Way, so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can meet on the bridge, and the lovers will finally get married." Qu You made a heart shape with his hands. , narrowing his eyes intoxicated.

Shen Yan leaned forward with great interest, and asked mysteriously, "Sister-in-law Jiu, what allusion is this Cowherd and Weaver Girl going out?"

Qu You raised her hand and patted Shen Yan's shoulder encouragingly. Fortunately, this child is not stupid enough to know which allusion it came from, instead of asking if she knew her.

"This Cowherd and Weaver Girl, it's a long story..." Qu You picked up the pastry and told the story while eating, shaking her head.

Inside the house, Qu You's spittle flew all over the place, and everyone listened with great interest.On this side, Chu Xu served the tea; on the other side, Shen Yan served her the pastries graciously, serving her meticulously.

"So, in the end, they were forced to separate, and they could only see each other once a year!" Qu You rubbed his belly, bringing the story to an end.

"What a pity." Shen Yan sighed.

"It's a pity..." Chu Xu snorted, "Don't just look at the surface when you do things. The two of them, one in the sky and the other on the ground, are originally different from each other. If it wasn't for the Cowherd who stole the colorful clothes of the Weaver Girl, they And how can we be together. Forced love will inevitably last forever, how do you know that Zhinu will definitely be willing, and how do you know that she has no resentment in her heart."

Qu You was very surprised by Chu Xu's reaction.It's just a story, how could he have such a big reaction.Could it be that he was once hurt by love.She raised her eyes and looked at Chu Yu questioningly.

Chu Yu drank tea calmly, without a single ripple on his face.He turned the porcelain cup in his hand, round and round, and the cup shattered with a 'click'.

Inside the house, there was an inexplicable strangeness. No one spoke, and the silence made people panic.Qu You approached Chu Yu cautiously, trying to absorb the warmth from his body.

"That..." Shen Yan said.

Great to finally have a breather.Qu You looked over excitedly, feeling relieved inexplicably.

"I'm a little hungry."

"Serve the food—" Qu You was full of pride.

"Food." Chu Xu shook his head, and in the blink of an eye he returned to that foolish prince.

When Qu You went out, Tweety'er had disappeared. Looking at the servants who were washing bloodstains all around, she sighed silently, "If you don't die, you won't die. The ancients do not deceive me. Now, it seems that this girl is obviously alive." But tomorrow.

"Nine brothers and sisters, don't cook too much, four cold and four hot dishes are enough." Chu Xu's voice came from behind.

Qu You turned her head with black lines on her face, "Four servings of porridge, four servings of pickled vegetables, whether you like it or not..."

Chu Xu spread his hands, "This is the way Prince Rui's Mansion treats guests."

"Bah, what kind of customer are you?" After speaking, Qu You walked towards the kitchen.

In the big kitchen, the woman in charge was giving orders loudly. When she saw Qu You coming in, she had a smile on her face and ran over quickly.

"Old slave Luo Xiu'e greets the princess."

Qu You nodded, walked around her, and walked into the kitchen.

"Oh, princess, you are not allowed to enter. The kitchen is very smoky. If it burns you, what will I do with this old servant?" Luo Xiu'e chased after Qu You.

Qu You stopped, and turned to stare at Luo Xiu'e, "Is there anything that can't be said in this kitchen?"

Luo Xiu'e was startled, and raised her hand to pat her face, "Look at this old slave's mouth, he's not used to speaking, so don't be as knowledgeable as me."

Qu You ignored her, raised her legs and continued to walk forward.Luo Xiu'e followed behind, constantly muttering: the kitchen is dirty, the food outside is scarce, the prices of things have risen wildly, and the money is not enough... She is upset and impatient.

"Enough." Qu You scolded angrily.

Luo Xiu'e was taken aback, looking at Qu You with surprise in her eyes.The little girl is so courageous, if you don't listen carefully, you may think that the scolding came from the mouth of the prince.

"Princess, don't be annoyed, the old slave just doesn't say anything."

"There are hundreds of households in this mansion, and you buy them all by yourself. It must be hard to say; if that's the case, it's better to find someone to share it." After finishing speaking, Qu You smiled.

Luo Xiu'e rolled her eyes, and a smile crept onto her face again, "Look at what the concubine said, the so-called seeking things in her place, since the servants are in charge, they will always suffer this kind of suffering, how can they just take money and not do it?" reason to live."

Qu You nodded, "Guard Luo, if you have any suffering, you should tell Bengong, don't force yourself."

Luo Xiu'e nodded and bowed her head in response, her plump forehead was covered with cold sweat.She gasped in fear, at this moment she did not dare to underestimate Qu You.

"Princess, don't worry, slaves and maidservants must do their jobs well."

Qu You didn't say anything, Feng Yan glanced at her with a half-smile.This Prince Rui's mansion is really hidden. It's not easy for a woman in charge of the kitchen to hide so deeply.

"King Yan and Shizi Shen want to dine in the mansion. According to their past tastes, they will make four cold, four hot and eight big bowls." After finishing speaking, Qu You turned around.

"Princess." Luo Xiu'e shouted.

Qu You stopped, turned her head, "What else is there?"

Luo Xiu'e had waxy lips, her expression was rather unnatural.

"What's the matter?" Qu You asked again.

Luo Xiu'e patted her thigh, looking desperate, "The old slave asked the princess, what kind of flavors do King Yan and Shizi Shen like to eat? Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, which one do they like?"

Qu You turned around with a black face, "It's really hard for you to ask me about this."

Luo Xiu'e was full of embarrassment, "Princess, don't blame this old slave for talking too much, this King Yan and Shen Shizi have never eaten in the mansion, this old slave really doesn't know."

"Impossible..." Qu You retorted, "A few times ago, they obviously ate again. I saw it with my own eyes. Could it be a fake?"

Luo Xiu'e spread her hands, "Those meals didn't come from the big kitchen."

Oh - Qu You suddenly realized.No wonder they don't know how to cook, she remembered, the few times when Chu Xu and Shen Yan came, the meals were all made by Huan Shan and Dai Rou.But now that Dai Rou is recuperating in bed, Huan Shan is the only one left, she is reluctant to let her wash her hands and make soup.

"Forget it, cook a few special dishes, don't disgrace Prince Rui's residence." After giving the order, he turned around and left.

Luo Xiu'e looked at Qu You's back, her eyes became darker and darker.This little girl is not simple, she just tried to speak out just now, but she was able to beat her back with a lot of force, which is very deep in the city.She couldn't help but sighed softly, the palace was getting more and more restless.

The big kitchen moved very quickly. As soon as Qu You entered the room, the food was served on the back.Looking at the steaming dishes and dishes in front of her, she couldn't help moving her index finger.

"Eat, eat..." Qu You raised his hand, picking up the chopsticks towards the plate.

"Is it delicious?" Shen Yan asked cautiously.

"En~" Qu You nodded.

Shen Yan picked up a piece of stewed meat and slowly put it in his mouth, "Pfft..." The piece of meat was spurted out instantly.

"How about it, isn't it delicious?" Qu You blinked with an innocent face.

"Sister-in-law Jiu, you lied to me." Shen Yan shouted.

"What did I lie to you?" Qu You spread his hands.

"You said this dish is delicious—"

"When did I say that?" Qu You refused to admit it.

"Just now, I asked you if it was delicious, and you said 'hmm'."

"Where did I talk, didn't you see that I choked just now?"

"Sister-in-law Jiu, you really look more and more like Brother Jiu."

"Of course, haven't you heard a word?" Qu You nodded triumphantly, "It's not a family, don't enter a family."

Shen Yan was speechless, he patted the table vigorously with his big hands, his face full of grief.
