I steamed buns for the general

Chapter 32

The autumn colors are getting thicker and the temperature is getting lower and lower. After Zhijin recovers, she resumes her old habit of getting up early every day to steam steamed buns.This day she woke up early, it was still dark outside, she was careful not to wake up Yue Ban who was on vigil, and walked out of the yard.

Ting Yu Xiaozhu was some distance away from the kitchen, Zhijin shrank her neck and walked quickly towards the kitchen.A thin morning mist enveloped the entire courtyard, making it difficult to see clearly.When passing Chaomuju, I saw a black figure walking slowly towards this side.

Zhijin turned and left without thinking.But before she ran ten steps, someone lifted her collar, and her whole body was suspended in the air.This kind of treatment made Zhijin feel familiar. Wasn't this the man who lifted her up in Jiuru'an that day?
"Keep running?" A gloomy voice sounded from above his head.Zhijin struggled, the man put her down, but she didn't dare to run anymore.

Zhijin turned her head back, lowered her head, and said, "Morning, General." It's really unlucky, seeing him three times a day is already very unpleasant, but we met again, when there was no one in the morning.Zhijin frowned, her pretty eyebrows knit together, secretly slandering her.

The man standing in front of him didn't feel that he frightened a girl at all, his voice was cold and helpless, "Am I a ghost? Run when you see me?"

Zhijin's face turned red, she really wanted to say that it was you who scared me, but she was short of hands, so she didn't dare to say that, after holding back for a long time, she said: "No, no. The maid is in a hurry to do it. Mantou." Phew, she finally found a decent reason.

But obviously this reason is untenable, she waited for a long time without waiting for a reply, she raised her head boldly, and saw the man in front of him with a face as cold as frost, but he was exceptionally handsome, although his good-looking eyebrows and eyes had It was cold, but Zhijin saw a trace of helplessness, and... gentleness?
Obviously she was thinking too much, and Zhijin was surprised to find that she was not so afraid of him after taking a closer look.Is it because you are afraid of getting used to it?You know, her legs would tremble when she met him before, why didn't she tremble this time?Instead, a little flustered?
Living in the General's Mansion for a few days, Zhijin felt at ease.When she was in Jiuru'an, she used to work and chant scriptures every day, but now that she has returned to vulgar life, she is still living in such a nice house, which is really beyond her expectations.

Xiao cooks only three meals of steamed buns a day, so she can eat delicious food, wear beautiful clothes, and have two cute little girls to chat with her.Accompanying Jiang from time to time makes life very uncomfortable.

After these days, Zhijin also learned a lot about Qin Jin from Jiang's mouth.Knowing that this person has a cold face and a warm heart, I am less afraid when I see him again.

Zhijin's head lowered lower and lower as the man's mighty aura oppressed her.She no longer wears a nun's hat since she came to the General's Mansion and decided to return to vulgarity. Now the top of her head is fluffy, and she looks good to the touch.

Qin Jin frowned and stared at the back of Zhijin's head, imagining the furry touch, stretched out his hand unconsciously, and rubbed the furry head.

Zhijin paused and raised her head in disbelief.What is this man doing?Are you teasing her?

Qin Jin was aware of his actions, looked at Zhijin's deer-like eyes, withdrew his hands in embarrassment, and walked away pretending to be calm with his hands behind his back.

Zhijin stood in a mess in the autumn wind as if struck by lightning.

The sky was bright, and some servants had already got up to clean the yard. Zhijin heard Yueban's voice from a distance, and immediately regained consciousness.

The scene just now should not have been seen, right?That iron-faced general is really weird. It's really weird that he can strike at his own bald head.

"Why didn't the girl wake up Yue Ban when she got up?" Yue Ban blamed and wrapped the cloak in her hand around her body, it would be bad if Tian Han Lu Chong had a cold.

Zhijin pursed her lips and smiled, the moles at the corners of her eyes became vivid, Yue Ban was bewildered by it, and couldn't bear to blame her, knowing that she was going to the kitchen, so she went to the kitchen with her.

After a busy morning, the steamed buns were finally steamed. Zhijin and Yueban took the steamed buns to the dining room, but they didn't see Qin Jin.

Zhijin was also surprised. Whenever she came to deliver steamed buns these days, the Qin family would sit in the dining room. Although everyone looked at her strangely, they didn't dare to say anything more because she was arranged by Qin Jin.

Smiling, Jiang ordered the girl to take the steamed buns, and reached out to take one, "Well, it's so delicious, we can have a good time without Jin'er."

Zhi Jin was flustered by the look in his eyes, and could not help but lower his head.

"Tch." Someone sneered.

Zhijin raised her head in embarrassment, and unexpectedly saw that Qin Meng was looking at her with contempt. Seeing her looking over, Qin Meng picked up the chopsticks and said maliciously: "Yo, are you still blushing? Could it be that Zhijin The girl has taken a fancy to my elder brother? I don’t even look at my own virtue."

What he said was not polite at all, Qin Yang didn't think what his daughter said was wrong, he had complained about leaving a nun at home with his son, but now the woman's demeanor seemed to be interested in her son.Moreover, the son's reason for keeping him in the mansion is also far-fetched, so he can't help but think about it.

But Jiang Shi really likes this girl from the bottom of his heart. Not to mention her poor background, she has a docile temperament. These days, she keeps her own place in the mansion, except to go to the kitchen to steam steamed buns. She feels good about Ji Geun.

Qin Meng had always been spoiled by Qin Yang, so she didn't pay attention to what she said, but when Qin Jin wasn't around, she became even more presumptuous.Originally, she thought Jiang would remain silent as before, but Jiang put down his chopsticks, put away his smile, and said coldly: "Presumptuous! Zhijin is a distinguished guest invited by the general, so why are you messing around here. Mother Jiang, send the young lady back, you should learn the rules."

Qin Meng's face turned pale, and she looked at Qin Yang anxiously.

Qin Yang's face was gloomy, and he looked at Jiang with displeasure, "It's just a few more words from the child, let's eat well." Looking at Zhijin one last time, he said, "Does Miss Zhijin have a family? If there are family members and relatives, we will also I can send the girl home. No matter how nice the outside is, it’s better to be at home after all.”

Zhi Jin's face was red when she said something, and a master of the family who said such words undoubtedly slapped her in the face.But she was not invited back by Qin Yang, even if she had to leave in the General's Mansion, it should be Qin Jin who pushed her out.

She was lonely since she was a child, and of course she wanted to find her family back home, but even in this general's mansion, she was peaceful and peaceful, and she didn't hinder their eyes. It's pleasing to the eye.

Jiang looked at her pale face, and looked at Qin Yang with a sneer: "Zhijin was invited by Jin'er, even if you want to drive her away, you have to agree with Jin'er. Mother Jiang, send Miss back."

Mother Jiang is Jiang's dowry. In the Qin family, she only listens to Jiang's orders. She also practiced martial arts with Jiang's when she was young. Now she will go up to Jiang's orders and say respectfully: "Miss, please Come on, don't embarrass the old slave."

Qin Meng looked at her father aggrieved, but saw that although her father was angry, there was nothing he could do.Seeing that she was not moving, Mother Jiang reached out and pulled her up, and led her away from the dining room while she was struggling.

Although Qin Yu is Qin Meng's elder brother, after weighing the current situation, he wisely chose to keep silent. He knows what his sister is like, and it is time to discipline her, but this girl Zhijin is really serious. Can not be underestimated.

After thinking about it, he raised his eyes and looked at Qin Du. This kid is just a bastard.His eyes were shining, full of gloating, seeing Qin Yu look over, put away the smile on his face, and lowered his head to eat expressionlessly.

The corners of Qin Yu's mouth twitched, thinking that everyone in this family was a strange thing.

For breakfast, even though Qin Jin was not there, they broke up unhappy.

After breakfast, Qin Yu and Qin Yang went to work in the yamen, Qin Du went to study, and Zhijin was dragged by the Jiang family to visit the General's Mansion.

During these days in the General's Mansion, Zhijin had been very cautious, not daring to make any mistakes.Although the Jiang family treated her as a guest and sent a little girl to wait on her, she knew that she was not a young lady, and taking such care of her was just for Qin Jin's sake.

Thinking of Qin Jin, Zhijin frowned, what happened this morning made her messy for a long time.She was patted on the head like a puppy, and Qin Jin was obviously avoiding her during breakfast.

Her state was noticed by Jiang, and she couldn't help asking: "You and Jin'er..."

Zhijin came back to her senses, and couldn't help but blush when she heard Jiang's words, "I have nothing to do with the general. Thanks to the general for saving me when I was in the nunnery, Zhijin is very grateful."

Jiang secretly observed Zhijin's expression, seeing her blushing shyly, felt even more satisfied.She also didn't understand why she fell in love with Zhijin as soon as she saw Zhijin, but at first it was because she was close to her eyes, but later she got along with her more satisfied, except for her background, she didn't seem to have any complaints.

If the Xie family can recognize their daughter, will it be more justifiable when the matter between Zhijin and Qin Jin is settled?
The more I thought about it, the more I realized it was possible, and I couldn't help but smile a little more on my face: "Don't be shy, you are thirteen this year, and there are two years left before you can get married and have children. There is nothing embarrassing about it. I also If you don't have a daughter, just treat me as your mother."

Having said that, Zhijin would be lying if she said she was not moved. She looked at Jiang with tears in her eyes, and thought how wonderful it would be if this was really her mother.

But she has never had such good luck in her two lifetimes. The greatest luck is that the master picked her up and saved herself from being eaten by wild dogs, and she escaped from the nunnery and found a place to live in the city.

"Madam... Zhijin is really, really grateful for the love of the general and his wife. Zhijin will never forget the kindness of the general and his wife." Zhijin choked up, but her heart was warm.

"Silly child." Jiang shi cherished her from the bottom of his heart, and patted her on the back lovingly. Zhijin took advantage of the situation and leaned against Jiang shi, feeling very warm and happy.

Even the sarcastic general, she is also grateful.Although she looked terrified, that man never violently beat or scolded her, and even took her in when he was desperate.Even Brother Xue Lang has a place to live.

Brother Xue Lang was retained by Qin Jin to practice martial arts under Qiao Feng. Hearing that they were talented, they were appreciated by Master Wu.

Although Zhijin didn't say it on the face, she was grateful in her heart.

As the autumn wind blows, there are only a few late autumn chrysanthemums left in the garden of the General's Mansion.Under the comfort of the autumn wind, it is also bleak.

Yue Ban looked at the two cuddling together in the pavilion not far away, and thought they were mother and daughter without knowing it.Yueban also heard a lot about Zhijin, and sighed for a while.
