Chapter 767 Late return

"My lord, are you okay? Today's release from the Yamen is more than half an hour later than in the past, and it's getting dark."

Outside the gate of the Taicang Bank, Liu Mu and Liu Dadao had been staring at the gate eagerly. In the past, Zhu Ping'an had already been released from the office at this time, but today it was half an hour later than usual. The two were worried outside, but they couldn't get in. Go, you can only worry outside. Zhu Ping'an finally came out after this meeting, and hurriedly led his horse to meet him.

"It's okay, but I forgot the time to check the account books today, and I forgot to let someone tell you. It's my fault that I made you worry." Zhu Pingan explained to the two with a smile while leading the horse.

"Sir, don't say that, as long as you are fine, there is nothing wrong with it." Liu Mu and Liu Dadao shook their heads and said hastily.

"Hehe, what can I do. Oh, by the way, you should also pay attention in the future. If people from Taicang bring you food and wine, they will refuse them. I'm afraid they will have some bad intentions." After returning to Linhuai On the way to Houfu, Zhu Pingan reminded Liu Mu of Liu Dao Dao.

"Hehe, it's too late for you to tell me, my lord." Liu Dadao chuckled.

Uh.

What's wrong?

Could it be people from Taicang?

Zhu Ping'an was startled when he heard this.

"Hehe, when the young master first came to Taicang to check the accounts, the young lady had already asked us to tell us. If the young master went to check Taicang, the people in Taicang would definitely make some small moves. Let us be careful of the people in Taicang and not take the ones from Taicang. For a penny, don't drink a sip of water from Taicang, unless you are ordered by the young master. You can rest assured, young master." Liu Dadao said with a smile.

Oh, it turned out that Li Shu thought of the order in advance, and Zhu Pingan breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Zhu Ping'an was also a little embarrassed. When Liu Dadao said it was late, he was still worried that Liu Mu and Liu Dadao took the money that the people in Taicang gave them.

It seems that my self-cultivation is still not at home, and I still need to pay more attention to self-cultivation in the future, and don't judge the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

If Liu Mu, Liu Dadao, and the others can't trust their simple, gracious saviors, who else can I trust?

"For fear of long nights and dreams, I will finish checking the accounts of Taicang as soon as possible, and it may be later tomorrow." Zhu Pingan said to Liu Mu and Liu Dadao.

"Well, the young master should also pay attention to his health. Only when he is in good health can he have the strength to do things." Liu Mu and Liu Dadao nodded, and Liu Mu reminded Zhu Pingan to pay attention to his health.

"Hehe, it will only take a day or two, so don't worry." Zhu Pingan nodded with a smile.

Taking advantage of the twilight of the moonlight, the three of them rode their horses and galloped all the way to Linhuaihou Mansion. Soon, the three of them disappeared into the thick night.

Arriving at Linhuaihou Mansion, the moonlight was hazy, and the sky was full of stars.

Ting Yuxuan's dining table in the main room was full of food, which was steaming and exuding a strong fragrance.

Of course, sitting on the dining table and chairs was a beautiful woman with red lips, white teeth, and puffed cheeks. It was Li Shu. When Li Shu saw Zhu Pingan enter the room, she raised her pink neck and looked up at the ceiling at forty-five degrees. On the way, she rolled her eyes at Zhu Ping'an, and Qiongbi let out a heavy "hum".

"It smells so good, it seems that I am really blessed." Zhu Pingan entered the room, saw a table of delicious food, and even saw Li Shu with puffy cheeks, so he said exaggeratedly.

but

The only response to Zhu Ping'an was a snort and a pair of white eyes.

Li Shu puffed her cheeks and sat aside, ignoring Zhu Pingan who came back late, as if she didn't hear Zhu Pingan's words.

It would be better if the little maid puffed her cheeks and spoke up for her young lady, "My lord, I shouldn't have opened my mouth as a slave, but my lord, you came here really late today, you don't know how old Miss is?" Worried. The food on this table has been reheated three times.

"Hunk, who is worried about him? I'll be clean only if he doesn't come back all night." Li Shu's watery eyes gave Baozi a hard look, and she pouted her cherry mouth that was as red as rose petals and said angrily.

After Li Shu finished speaking, she raised her delicate and pretty face again, and pointed her chin at Zhu Pingan, her watery eyes rolled out the whites.

A beauty is a beauty, even if she is angry, she is still beautiful and fascinating.

Under the candlelight, Li Shu's delicate and beautiful pretty face is more beautiful and eye-catching than any female star that Zhu Ping'an has seen in modern times. The pretty face is delicate and fair, like goat's milk curd, so crystal clear that Zhu Ping'an dare not Look more, lest you look too much and see two holes in Li Shu's face.

Zhu Ping'an wanted to explain, but when he glanced at Li Shu, he couldn't help but be fascinated for a while.

It wasn't until Li Shu made a coquettish "hum" that Zhu Ping'an came back to his senses.

"Ahem, what, I checked the account books today and forgot the time." Zhu Pingan coughed, and his acting skills were clumsy to cover up the embarrassment that he was fascinated by watching Li Shu just now, and briefly explained to Li Shu when he checked the accounts in Taicang .

"Is the account book important or me?" Li Shu replied lightly.

"Of course you are important." Zhu Pingan replied without thinking. The answer to this kind of question can only be this.

"Then you came back so late, who are you lying to?" Li Shu raised her pretty face again and let out a coquettish voice.

"I want to quickly finish the audit of the account books and finish the errands in my hand, so that I can spend more time with you." Zhu Pingan found a reason and explained.

"Just like before, I will be glib, so I won't be fooled by you." Li Shu pouted her pink lips, and said so coquettishly, but she finally looked straight at Zhu Ping'an.

Looking at Li Shu's coquettish look, Zhu Ping'an coaxed Li Shu tightly for a while, finally coaxing Li Shu.

"If you eat all these meals, I will believe you." Li Shu blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Zhu Ping'an. There was a playful smile on Cherry's small mouth, and playfulness was shining in her big watery eyes. The flickering candlelight in the room reflected in Li Shu's watery eyes like stars in the sky.

"Tell you, I can eat the whole plate." Zhu Pingan said solemnly, and began to eat.

"Yeah, you really think of yourself as an idiot. You'll be fine if you're full. If you're really full, your mother-in-law will definitely scold me." But when Zhu Ping'an opened his belly to eat, Li Shu was concerned again. She became coquettish, and she didn't look half angry.

At this time, Zhu Pingan understood more deeply the deep meaning of the modern joke:

On the day of the wedding, my mother-in-law said to me: "In the future, if my daughter loses her temper and is unreasonable, you can tell me, and I will teach you how to deal with her." Today, my wife is really arrogant and unreasonable, so I called my mother-in-law. The mother-in-law said: "Do you think she seems reasonable? Don't reason with her, coax her."

Girls really want to coax, reasoning and so on, they also want to coax.
