Zhu Pingan returned to the backyard from the county office in the evening, and again saw the Demoness Ruo Nan who was thinking hard in the courtyard.
At the moment, the Demoness Ruo Nan looked like a thinker who had gone off the deep end, her face was vicarious, her eyes were red and bloodshot, and she was wearing a chicken nest head. Beside her was a bowl of rice, which was covered with richly flavoured chicken thighs and diced vegetable meat, and next to it was a gourd of wine, but the rice hadn’t moved a single bite, and the wine had all been drained ……
“What exactly does it mean? Why can’t I figure it out?!”Demoness Ruo Nan muttered to herself in a daze.
“Ruo Nan, eat some food. You haven’t eaten anything for a day.”Painting Child advised worriedly from the side.
“Painter, aren’t you your young lady’s personal maid, haven’t you been serving your young lady since she was a child, tell me, what exactly is the meaning of this ‘goon’ letter that your young lady has had sent to her?!”
Demoness Ruo Nan tightly grasped Painter’s hands, looked at Painter with a pair of bloodshot eyes, and eagerly asked.
“Ah? I don’t know.”Painter shook her head in embarrassment.
“You’ve been serving your lady since you were a child alas, what does your lady mean, don’t you know?”
Demoness Ruo Nan looked at Painter with an eager face, and her hand, which was gripping Painter’s, was clenched even harder.
“My miss has been smart since she was a child, my master always said that my miss is a female Zhuge, in front of my miss, I’m a stupid girl, I really don’t lie to you, I really don’t know what miss means.”
Painter said very seriously.
“Can’t associate it at all? Just whatever.”Demoness Ruo Nan looked at Painter encouragingly.
“Can’t think of anything at all.”Painter was embarrassed as she looked at Demoness Ruonan and returned seriously.
“What about the book nerd’s ‘you’, do you know what it means? You were the one who served him in Jingnan. The ink in his study is all researched by you ……”Demoness Ruo Nan pursued the question without giving up.
Painter’s head shook like a rattle.
Seeing this, Demoness Ruonan was like an aubergine that had been frosted, and she shrivelled even more.
“Ruonan, you should eat quickly, man is iron and rice is steel, a meal without food makes you hungry, not to mention you haven’t eaten for a day.”Painter worriedly looked at the haggard and bewitched Demoness Ruo Nan, and persuaded her bitterly.
“I can’t eat, I don’t have any appetite at all ……I reckon that if I can’t think of anything for a day, I won’t be able to eat for a day ……”Demoness Ruonan bitterly smiled and shook her head, pitifully helpless and determinedly said.
After saying that, Demoness Ruonan scratched her head and continued to think hard ……
It was at this time that Zhu Pingan returned to the backyard from the county office and saw this scene.
Curiosity killed the cat.
Seeing this appearance of the Demoness Ruo Nan, Zhu Pingan couldn’t help but think of this western proverb.
Zhu Pingan had long known that the Demoness Ruonan was very curious, when he was at the Anqing Prefectural Examination, in order for the Demoness not to disturb his revision, he had used a few brainteasers to get rid of her.
However, I did not expect that the curiosity of the demoness Ruonan was so heavy ……Zhu Pingan looked at the demoness Ruo Nan speechlessly.
So say ah, people ah, some times curiosity should not be too heavy, Demoness Ruo Nan is a foregone conclusion.
“Auntie, Auntie you’re back.”Painter’s eyes curved into a crescent moon in excitement when she saw Zhu Pingan return.
“Zhu Pingan ……”Demoness Ruo Nan looked up at Zhu Pingan, her eyes filled with blood.
“Auntie, Ruo Nan, she hasn’t eaten anything for a day, she just drank a little bit of wine, it’s just too pitiful, or ……Why don’t you just tell her what ‘goon’ and ‘you’ mean, Auntie.”Painter is a soft hearted and kind hearted, and cannot bear to plead for the Demoness Ruonan.
When the Demoness Ruonan heard Painter speak for her, she could not help but look at Zhu Pingan with a blearily expectant face.
Zhu Pingan looked at Painter and then at Demoness Ruo Nan and asked, “Will you still peek at other people’s letters in the future?”
“I’m the one who didn’t peek, it was you who raised the letter towards my eyes, I saw it by accident.”Demoness Ruo Nan’s mouth was stiff.
“Come on, originally I was still hesitating whether I should tell someone if she knows her mistake, now I don’t need to hesitate.”
Zhu Pingan looked at Demoness Ruo Nan, smiled slightly, pulled the corner of his mouth, and leisurely said.
“You ……”Demoness Ruo Nan’s speech ended.
“You quickly admit your fault to your aunt and say that you will never peek again.”Painter shook Demoness Ruo Nan’s sleeve.
Demoness Ruonan was a backbone and didn’t want to bow down and admit her mistake to Zhu Pingan, but curiosity prevailed, after a few seconds of stalemate, she looked at Zhu Pingan with a reluctant face and said, “I was wrong, I’ll never peek at your letters again, you’re satisfied, you can tell me now.”
“Alas, it’s better to forget about it, a strong twisted melon is not sweet, although someone admitted his mistake on his mouth, not enough to have the sincerity to admit his mistake in his heart.”Zhu Pingan swept a glance at the Demoness Ruo Nan, slowly shook his head and leisurely said.
“You ……”Demoness Ruonan stood up in anger, Auntie I have admitted my mistake, but you are still not satisfied.
“What’s wrong with me?”Zhu Pingan smiled and looked at the Demoness Ruo Nan.
“You ……”Demoness Ruonan was quite full of momentum at first, but handsome but two seconds, two seconds later the momentum was abashed, the whole person was like a Sichuan Opera face change, the face squeezed out a trace of a smile, clenched her teeth and said in a petite voice, “You’re right, my party’s admission of fault was too insincere ……Zhu Pingan, Master Zhu, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have peeked at your old letter, I’ll never do it again, your old man has a large amount, the prime minister’s belly can hold up the boat, don’t be general with me a small woman to be concerned about, send a kind heart, you tell me that ‘goon’ word and that ‘you’ word each means.word each means.”
“The letter is personal ……It’s a secret between us husband and wife.”Zhu Pingan smiled as he looked at the demoness Ruo Nan and slowly spoke, “I hope that the girl can respect our privacy and give us a little personal space.”
“Ah? Zhu Pingan!!!”
Demoness Ruonan froze, you are not telling me ah, since you are not going to tell me, why do you still want me to admit my mistake, she was so angry that she could not wait to take out her fish dagger and poke Zhu Pingan a few transparent holes.
“Hmm?”Zhu Pingan smiled as he looked at the Demoness Ruo Nan with a good-natured look on his face.
Demoness Ruo Nan inhaled hard and squeezed a smile on her face, blinking her eyes and making a chaste appearance, “Master Zhu you are right. Just also hope that Master Zhu pity pity the little girl, if you do not know the answer, the little girl tea do not want to think about rice, really will starve out of the good and bad ……”
“Auntie, Ruo Nan, she has not eaten anything for a day, even her favourite chicken leg has not eaten a single bite ……”
Painter also helped the demoness Ruonan plead for mercy.
“Master Zhu is merciful ……”Demoness Ruo Nan put her hands together and looked at Zhu Pingan pitifully.
“It is not impossible.”Zhu Pingan slowly spoke.
“Really?!”The Demoness Ruonan’s eyes instantly lit up when she heard this, like a lost person seeing cooking smoke.
