Chapter 124 He is the only one who is secretly competing
It was evening when I returned home.
It’s still cold when the wind blows.
In the past few days, I have applied black charcoal on my face when I go out. It has been a little itchy for a long time. Yu Tingwan washed his face as soon as he returned home.
Wei Zhao is looking down at a book.
It was given to him by the neighbor next door, and he watched it to pass the time.
Listening to the sound, Wei Zhao raised his eyes and looked over.
Unlike the obviously ill-fitting cotton coat she wore before, this one is just the right size.
But navy blue...
In Wei Zhao's opinion, it looks mature. It is worn by older people. Even his biological mother, Mrs. Shun Guogong, does not have clothes of this color. .
"Can you play chess?"
Yu Tingwan closed her eyes and rubbed her face carefully, opening and closing her red lips.
There were only two people in the room, and it was obvious that this was meant for Wei Zhao.
“It’s okay.”
Yu Tingwan: “That’s not right. I’ve already left Haikou. No matter what you do, you have to show that you are good at chess.”
Wei Zhao told the truth: "I'm afraid not many people in this world are my opponents."
Yu Tingwan was very satisfied.
"...Then can you play the flute?"
Wei Zhao: "It's not bad."
"That's not right either."
Wei Zhao said calmly: "I'm not very proficient, but I have studied with my master for three years."
Yu Tingwan: "Yes, yes, yes!"
"Next time someone will ask. Come on, just say that."
Wei Zhao:...
Hui Niang and Wei Shouzhong were talking outside.
The girl listened to the sound and pursed her lips: "My mother has not said anything these days, but she is still thinking about her mother's family. When my uncle and the others arrived before we got married, my cousin did not show up, so I felt something was wrong."
“I’m afraid something really happened.”
But Zhao Yong and Mr. and Mrs. Yu didn’t say a word.
But with Wei Shen's body in such a state, Yu Tingwan really had too much time to take care of himself.
Everything is getting better now, but the county town and the countryside are too far apart, so it is inconvenient to help.
Wei Zhao: "If you want to find out, it's not difficult. The Zhao family is studying in the academy in the town."
After the Spring Festival, the students all returned to the academy.
"I think so too. There is a bullock cart at home. I will ask dad to go and have a look later."
I want to know if something happened to Zhao Yu. Can I just go to the town and have a look?
“What Zhao Jiazi, that’s your cousin.”
Wei Zhao: "I do have a cousin."
He said in a calm tone: "But he is uneducated and has a reputation for being a bastard. He was spoiled by his family."
Put it in Qian Yu Tingwan must refute.
How about Zhao Yu?
Other people take the exam to get ahead, but others study hard in a humble window to redress Xiao Niang’s injustice.
But now, she paused and continued washing her face.
Not a word was said.
The room suddenly became quiet.
The silence is a bit eerie.
Wei Zhao has never concealed anything from Yu Tingwan.
Whenever she asked, Wei Zhao would never hold back.
But she didn’t.
Wei Zhao concealed his emotions: "There's no need to go to town. Just ask the next door guy to ask for help."
Yu Tingwan was stunned: "Next door?"
She suddenly thought of something: "There is a wife next door coming to visit today. Could it be the wife from the town?"
She thought of something and couldn't help but feel disgusted in her tone.
“There are only two masters in the town. One, surnamed Chi, was seriously ill a few years ago. Although he still managed to teach, the various sizes of the college were left to other masters. ”
"You are not talking about Master Chu. Hu Yaozu is his favorite disciple."
Yu Tingwan: "As far as I know, this man is very good at opportunism and research."
The girl Mingming Very smart.
Wei Zhao closed his eyes. On the contrary, sometimes, even he couldn't guess what Yu Tingwan was thinking.
She should be suspicious.
Perhaps, she has begun to believe that he is Wei Zhao.
But she didn't react too much.
Although Yu Tingwan sometimes showed her emotions on her face, that was only if she was willing to have no reservations. If she really wanted to hide it, who could pry?
Wei Zhao: "My surname is Chu."
Yu Tingwan: "I don't know what that person's plan is. If I knew, I would definitely mess it up." There seemed to be a secret rivalry between the couple. Yu Tingwan didn't want to mention or ask any more questions. Wei Zhao simply let her go.
No one seems to want to break this balance.
But only Wei Zhao knows.
He was the only one secretly competing with each other.
As for Yu Tingwan, she clearly didn't care.
Yu Tingwan washed her face and dried it with a hanging cotton cloth: "I also bought rouge, but I don't know how to use it."
Yu Tingwan: "I was thinking about it I went home, wiped it on my face and thought about it slowly, but I forgot to buy a bronze mirror.”
“Fortunately, I have a husband.”
Wei Zhao frowned.
How to wield a sword and a stick, how to kill people, how to pry open the mouths of traitors, and how to trick people who go to Beijing around are his strengths.
But he has never touched the objects in his daughter's house.
“Neither can I.”
Yu Tingwan: “It’s okay.”
Wei Zhao said calmly: "I don't know how to learn."
Yu Tingwan regretted and found another way: "Then I can apply it on my husband's face and practice."
A man draws a woman's eyebrows It's called raising a case to raise eyebrows.
Then they are pretty much the same.
Wei Zhao:? ? ?
The eyes become complicated.
There is nothing you dare not do, right?
Wei Zhao: "...It can also be learned."
Yu Tingwan: "I also bought balm."
She knows how to use the balm.
The girl opened the box, dug out some with her index finger, spread it evenly in her hand, and then wiped it on her face.
Yu Tingwan: "By the way, I bought clothes for the second elder."
She turned around and came over to the bed.
Wei Zhao was slightly stagnant.
I thought that the girl was in her prime, so she couldn't hold it down under this cotton coat, but she was born well, and her skin was so white that it could shine through, so she didn't feel out of place.
It’s just...
It’s just that she should be more suitable for Jinluo Silk.
"Mom said no, but she was happy in her heart."
"Dad's clothes have just been tried on and they fit perfectly."
Yu Tingwan What else do you want to say.
Wei Zhao: "Where's mine?"
Yu Tingwan's steps faltered, and a slight uneasiness flashed on his face. But soon, the emotion was covered up.
"My husband is lying in bed. There is a charcoal fire burning in the room to keep him warm. Where is the use?"
She sat down in front of the bed and reasoned with him in a gentle voice: "Besides, Yes, don’t you have one? It’s just sitting there gathering dust.”
Wei Zhao: “Oh”
His tone did not fluctuate, and his deep eyes were filled with indistinguishable emotions.
“You forgot.”
The exposed Yu Tingwan:...
“It’s a waste to buy it. I thought that when my husband gets better, I can It’s not too late to make up for it.”
Wei Zhao didn’t listen.
He said slowly: "You forgot."
Yu Tingwan: "I have seen those clothes, but they are not suitable for you..."
Wei Zhaoyouyou: "You I just forgot.”
The girl was silent for a long time.
She pursed her lips melancholy, and whispered very quietly, her voice softening: "Husband, can't you give me a step down?"
This is a rare gesture of defeat.
It can be fast.
Yu Tingwan was persuasive: "A man should be more generous and don't always hold on to such trivial matters."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hui Niang's voice came from outside.
"Wan Niang, your Aunt Zhao next door is looking for you."
No, here comes the step.
Yu Tingwan slipped away faster than anyone else.
Watching her figure disappear from sight, her steps showed obvious eagerness. Wei Zhao's expression slowed down and he picked up the book to read again.
I don’t know how long it took, but a muffled smile escaped from his throat.
