Chapter 157 Spider
Chapter 157 Spider
Ten days later, Yue Weiwei's foot injury was basically healed and she could walk freely.
She stared at the stack of house rules on the table and felt relieved.
“Finally finished copying!”
The brocade box entered his eyes, and Yue Weiwei closed his eyes dully, feeling unhappy.
He must have taken Luo Zhuangzhou's book!
"Now that my foot is healed, I will visit Li Hengtu and test the waters under the pretext of taking care of Hengying's medicinal food in the General's Mansion."
Yue Weiwei stood up, went out and saw Qian Yue, and said, "Come with me to the general's mansion."
Qian Yue was puzzled and said, "Miss, your foot is just fine and it's inconvenient for you to walk. You just went to Chengyunyuan to pay your respects this morning. You have to be careful."
Yue Weiwei waved her hand and ignored him, saying, "Come with me. I can walk this distance."
Qian Yue couldn't persuade her, so she followed her to the general's mansion.
When the housekeeper came to report, Li Hengtu was extremely excited, but he couldn't show it, so he said calmly: "Madam Ming's injury has just recovered, I will go to greet her."
Seeing Yue Weiwei's energetic eyes, it was as if two shining stars rose in his heart.
"Mr. Li, Zhuyu Pavilion has been under the protection of the General's Mansion for many days. I came here to express my gratitude!"
Li Hengtu smiled and said, "Ms. Ming, you are too polite!"
"These are just a token of my appreciation. Please accept them."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Yue came forward holding a brocade box.
Li Hengtu glanced at the butler, and he retreated with the brocade box.
There was no one around, so Li Hengtu walked closer to Yue Weiwei and smelled the scent of lilac flowers. He was a little dazed, so he stood beside her and quietly looked at her face, which was bright and beautiful.
"Mr. Li, you have been preparing medicinal food for Heng Ying for ten days. Time has passed so quickly. I wonder if you have used up all the things you borrowed?"
Li Hengtu's eyes lit up and he woke up from his trance.
Suddenly he understood, smiled bitterly, and asked, "What is the borrowed thing?"
Yue Weiwei had expected this scene, so she didn't get angry. She asked in a low voice, "Master Li, do you remember my calligraphy practice plan?"
Li Hengtu sniffed the floral scent in the air and thought: Madam Ming is a smart person!
He turned around and invited Yue Weiwei to the room for tea: "Your foot is just fine, it's not suitable for you to stand for a long time, why don't we go to the room for tea and chat in detail."
Yue Weiwei did not refuse, and the two walked forward.
A patch of flowers caught her attention and she couldn't help but stop to admire them.
Li Hengtu walked up to the bushes and said, "These are lilacs. They have so many buds. They will bloom soon. The whole yard will be filled with the fragrance, which will be refreshing."
"This bush is well-kept, and the branches and leaves are lush. Master Li must really like lilacs!"
Li Hengtu turned around and looked at Yue Weiwei, his eyes unfathomable, revealing a hint of emotion that he could not hide.
Yue Weiwei happened not to notice anything and was just admiring the lush green leaves.
When she looked up, Li Hengtu had already suppressed the excitement that was overflowing from his heart.
"Son!"
Yue turned around slightly and saw Chaoyang approaching from behind.
He clasped his fists and bowed: "Madam Ming, how are you!"
Yue smiled and said, "I came to the General's Mansion today to express my gratitude. The Chaoyang Guards have worked hard these past ten days."
When Chaoyang saw Yue Weiwei's figure just now, he was extremely unhappy. Now her excuse was flawless and he was unable to refute it.
"Mrs. Ming is seriously injured. Although she has recovered, she still needs to be careful. Standing or walking for a long time will hurt her bones and muscles."
As soon as Chaoyang finished speaking, Li Hengtu quickly followed up and said, "Mrs. Ming, please come inside, have some refreshments, and rest your ankle."
Although the two tried their best to conceal it, Yue Weiwei noticed Chaoyang's little emotion. She wanted to go back home, but when she thought about the whereabouts of Luo Zhuangzhou's book, she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.
She wanted to see Chaoyang's expression, but Li Hengtu was standing in the way, so she couldn't do so. She wondered in her heart whether the unpleasantness between the master and servant had anything to do with her?
Li Hengtu couldn't help but curse Chaoyang in his heart, but he persuaded Yue Weiwei to sit down and rest.
"You wait at the door."
When the two of them walked into the room, Li Hengtu specifically reminded Chaoyang and looked at him meaningfully.
Yue Weiwei took the opportunity to look back, but saw Chaoyang standing at the door with his back to them.
"please!"
Li Hengtu extended the invitation, and Yue Weiwei quickly responded with a smile.
After they sat down, Li Hengtu poured her tea and said straight to the point, "You came here to ask for books, but thanking you is secondary!"
Yue was slightly startled, and immediately said: "Mr. Li seems to know everything, but he is judging others with a mean mind."
When Li Hengtu heard the word "villainous mind", he did not get angry, but laughed out loud.
"why are you laughing?"
"You are so smart that you guessed that I took the book."
This person was beating around the bush and not getting to the point. Yue Weiwei was dissatisfied and said, "This is not funny!"
Li Hengtu looked at her, staring deeply into those bright eyes, without blinking.
Yue Weiwei met his gaze, but the good times didn't last long and she was defeated!
"What happened to my face?"
Seeing her lowering her head with a red face, Li Hengtu couldn't help but reach out to lift the hair on her forehead.
Unexpectedly, Yue Weiwei jumped up from the stool with a look of fear on her face, and exclaimed: "Spider! Spider!"
Li Hengtu seemed to be awakened from a dream. In a daze for a moment, he quickly stood up to check.
I saw a black spot moving quickly on the ground. It was the spider.
"This spider is crawling on my skirt. It's so scary!"
Yue Weiwei said in fear as he took a few steps back away from the spider.
Li Hengtu quickly stepped forward and swept his legs, and the spider rolled around and flew towards the door.
Chaoyang heard the noise and walked over. Seeing the tiny black shadow, he quickly dodged and asked, "Sir, Madam Ming, do you have any other instructions?"
Li Hengtu turned his face to him and said coldly: "It's okay, you can leave."
Chaoyang turned and left, but Li Hengtu did not let him go, staring at his back.
Only they two knew that spider!
