Abandoned Woman Busy Farming
Chapter 426 The scheming Mr. Du
When Bai Ruozhu returned to Linjiang Residence, her second brother hadn't come back yet. She breathed a sigh of relief with a guilty conscience. She was really afraid of being caught by her second brother, and she didn't know how to explain it.
Bai Ruozhu said goodbye to Jiang Yichun and went back to the room. She felt that her hair was not too dry and wanted to spread it out to dry. But thinking about how gentle he was when he tied it, her hands stopped by her ears and she couldn't bear to remove them. The bun was taken apart.
Standing in front of her while he was twisting his hair, she could feel his warm breath on the top of her head, and her smooth forehead and his chin rubbed slightly, as if they were not touching, but as if they were already touching.
This feeling is very charming and ambiguous.
Bai Ruozhu touched her hot cheek. Even in her previous life, if she lived in the 21st century, she would not have had such a romantic love experience, right? God arranged for her to travel here and gave her a happy family and such a perfect lover. How lucky she was.
That night, Bai Ruozhu slept particularly soundly. She didn't know whether it was because she felt comfortable after taking a bath in the hot spring, or because the experience during the day made her particularly happy. If it weren't for Dundeng still taking night milk, she would definitely be able to sleep through it. It's broad daylight.
Early the next morning, she and her second brother had breakfast at Linjiangju, and went to Mr. Du's appointment at the right time.
They didn't want to go too early, lest they were still waiting for someone, and they didn't want to go too late. They just said a few words and they would let them have lunch. The behavior of the second wife of the Du family and Du Fuling made them unable to mention the Du family. Too much goodwill, this cooperation has been signed long ago, so they will give the Du family face, but they don't want to get too close to the Du family.
Even though the Du family was a merchant's home, its style was no worse than that of the Meng family. When the concierge saw that they had taken the invitations, he had to pass them around. The two of them waited for a long time before being brought in. Fortunately, the Du Mansion is not as big as the Meng Mansion. Not long after leaving, we arrived at Mr. Du's yard.
When Mr. Du saw the two people coming in, he stood up with a smile to greet them. Bai Ruozhu and Bai Zepei both stepped forward to salute and respectfully called "Mr. Du".
Bai Ruozhu took a quick look at Mr. Du. He was probably about the same age as Bai Fu, and his hair was already gray. It could be seen that he either didn't pay attention to maintenance or was tired from overthinking.
There were two other people following Mr. Bai, a middle-aged man and a man who looked older than Du Zhongshu, but there was no sign of Du Zhongshu and his father Du Wenbin.
After the two greeted each other, Bai Ruozhu asked, "Why don't you see Mr. Du and the second master of the Du family? We also said we would visit when they come back. Have they not returned to Beiyu City yet?"
The man who was older than Du Zhongshu had a look of displeasure in his eyes, while the other middle-aged man looked much calmer, with a smile on his face and no reaction.
Mr. Du said with a smile: "Zhong Shu's internal injuries from falling on the road need to be treated well. I told him to take good care of his injuries to avoid getting the root cause of the disease in the future. These are my eldest son Du Wenyu and my second grandson Du Zhongshi."
Bai Ruozhu understood. It seemed that Du Zhongshu and his son had been ignored.
She and her second brother greeted them, "I have met Mr. Du and the second young master."
Du Wenyu seemed to be very talkative, and said with a smile: "You don't need to be polite, just sit down and talk, and let the servants serve you tea."
Du Zhongshi forced a smile, which showed that he didn't like the Bai Ruozhu siblings very much, and he was not good at hiding his emotions.
Bai Ruozhu and Bai Zepei sat down, and the servant quickly brought tea. They picked up the tea bowls and drank casually, then put down the tea bowls and waited for Mr. Du to speak.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Du became mysterious and asked with a smile: "What do you two think of this tea?"
Bai Ruozhu curled her lips secretly. They were from farmers' families and couldn't afford to drink good tea on weekdays. Do you want to see them flattered? Or do you think it would be embarrassing for them to drink?
She planned to openly say that she didn't know how to drink tea, but before she could speak, she heard the second brother next to her say calmly: "This fine Dahongpao is really good, but it's a pity that the tea is good, but the brewing skills are a little inferior. It’s a bit of a waste of the mellow aroma of this good tea.”
Bai Ruozhu was a little surprised. It turned out that her second brother also knew how to taste tea. It seemed that he learned it from Mr. Xie.
Du Zhongshi was not happy when he heard this, and rushed to say: "Can you taste tea? If you can't tell me, don't insist on it. My servants are not good at making tea, how can you do it?"
"Zhong Shi, don't be rude!" Mr. Du shouted sternly.
Bai Ruozhu looked at Du Zhongshi unhappily, "Since the old man wants to ask us what we mean, why don't we allow my second brother to tell the truth? Is this how the second old man treats guests?"
When Du Zhongshi heard this, he stared at Bai Ruozhu, "What do you think the country folk are pretending to be..."
"Zhong Shi, if you keep talking nonsense, get out of here!" Mr. Du was really angry and shouted suddenly.
Mr. Du couldn't say how much he valued the Bai family, but he knew that the Bai family brothers and sisters had only been to the Meng Mansion twice. He felt that this Bai Zepei had caught Mr. Meng's eyes. Even if he couldn't get closer to the Bai family, there was no need to offend him. Bar?
Bai Zepei always had a cold and indifferent attitude. He looked at Du Zhongshi slightly and said: "Most scribes love tea, and there are many who are proficient in tea ceremony. Since the second young master doesn't believe me, why not let me brew one for everyone?" Tea can be regarded as proof that I am not lying."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Mr. Du and said, "I made Mr. Du laugh."
Bai Ruozhu suppressed the surprise in her heart. Her second brother had always been very low-key, so why did he feel like he was going out of his way to show off today? If it were normal times, he would just make a few mocking remarks about Eucommia ulmoides and would not show his face at all.
"Okay, as expected, you young people are still motivated, so I'll have someone bring the tea set over." Mr. Du said.
Du Zhongshi glared at Bai Zepei with an expression that said, "I'm waiting to see you make a fool of yourself."
Bai Ruozhu didn't know when her second brother would learn the tea ceremony, but she had unconditional trust in him, so she held the child and moved it, blocking Du Zhongshi's sight. Seeing that Du Zhongshi was still glaring over, she turned around. The head raised his eyebrows provocatively at him, and sure enough, the irritable Du Zhongshi almost jumped up.
Bai Ruozhu is the kind of person who can move one eyebrow. The way she raises her eyebrows with her eyes wide open is indeed very provocative. If Du Wenyu hadn't pulled Eucommia ulmoides next to him, I'm afraid he would really get angry and scold Bai Ruozhu.
There was a sneer on Bai Ruozhu's lips. With Du Zhongshi's emotional intelligence, it was simply a fool's dream to want to compete with Du Zhongshu for status in the family. She probably also understands why Mr. Du doesn't stop others from refuting Du Zhongshu. Maybe he also wants to make some people suffer.
She noticed the admiration and satisfaction flashing in Mr. Du's eyes, and she roughly understood that Mr. Du actually asked that question intentionally. He wanted to give her and the second brother a chance to convince the eldest and second young masters, so as not to In future cooperation, the Du family looked down upon the Bai family, but how could he be so sure that his second brother had this ability?
