About Me Than the Heroine Su

Chapter 16 - distance



Pei Qian understood in a flash that Bai Chu was in the Guangju Building with one of Shen Yue today, and when he saw Shen Yue approaching a few steps, he bent his knees and pulled Bai Chu up from himself.

He looked at Bai Chu as if he was looking for a support, and in a daze, he turned to hug Shen Yingzhi’s arm, and an inexplicable anger suddenly burst into his heart, and said coldly, “Second Young Master Shen will take his younger brother and sister into his arms. Bringing Guangjulou to drink, alone, alone in a room, is it unethical?”

Shen Yongzhi’s actions of supporting Bai Chu looked calm and calm, but in fact she was quite at a loss, especially her body was soft and weak, almost sticking to her body.

Fortunately, there is still Pei Qian, and he can divert his attention.

“I have the Fourth Highness of Lao Lao’s memory, and my third younger brother and sister left the house, and I also informed the third younger brother in advance. If it happened that the third younger brother had an appointment, he would not be absent.” Shen Yongzhi raised his usual gentle smile and raised his eyes. Looking at Pei Qian’s gaze, his aura was not weak at all, “I don’t know, why is the Fourth Highness here?”

Pei Qian had already stood up from the ground, and patted his cuff casually: “I just came to take a look when I heard a change. Even if Yu Zhi knew about it and let his wife be so drunk that she was unconscious, she wasn’t as elegant as Master Shen. What should a gentleman do?”

“Thanks to me for believing in Your Excellency’s virtue. Otherwise, I thought Second Young Master Shen would have anything else on his mind for his younger brother and sister.”

“Fourth Highness.” Shen Yongzhi’s tone became slightly heavier, and there was a bit of coldness in his smiling and friendly eyes, “The woman has a very good reputation, please be careful with your Highness.”

It’s all done, what’s a good time to sell it? Pei Qian rolled his eyes in his heart, snorted coldly, and didn’t continue to say: “Yuzhi is next door, since Second Young Master Shen is here, let’s go and say hello to him.”

At this time, Duanxi and Shuangxi also came up. Seeing that Bai Chu was drunk and unsteady, leaning on the second young master staggeringly, he was shocked, and hurriedly went to the other side to support her, and whispered worriedly: “Young Master. Madam? Young Madam?”

Shen Yongzhi quietly pressed his numb arm, and said in a low voice, “Duanxi, go and ask the shopkeeper for a bowl of sobering soup, and then open another wing to serve the three young ladies and rest for a while.”

“Yes.” Duanxi responded respectfully, turned around and went out. Shuangxi saw his master, Tianran, asleep and hanging on the second young master. His eyelids flicked, and he felt a little uneasy. It is already a great rudeness, let alone being so close to her husband’s brother.

She whispered to persuade Bai Chu to go to rest together, but she did not expect that Bai Chu was awakened by her, her watery eyes were drunk and out of focus, she said blankly to Shen Yongzhi, who was closest, “Second brother… I have a headache. …the hand hurts too…”

There is a bit of grievance in the soft and glutinous words, and the cold and hard heart has to be turned into a water of honey in an instant.

Shen Yongzhi’s expression subconsciously softened, and because Pei Qian was staring at her, he suppressed the urge to raise his hand to rub her head, and just soothed: “Don’t worry, after drinking the hangover soup, it will be better. I’ll have someone else prepare you some sweet pastries, eh?”

Bai Chusu’s small face relied on his sleeve, but did not speak.

Pei Qian, who was opposite the two, was keenly aware of the doting look in Shen Yongzhi’s eyes when he looked down at her.

His brows furrowed deeper, and he took all the discomfort in his heart as anger for his brother’s injustice. What kind of luck is Yuzhi? It doesn’t matter if the previous one just had a marriage contract, and this one has already been married back home, why is there still someone coveting it? Or brother?

Pei Qian just made up his mind to go back and at least vaguely mention a few words to Shen Yuzhi. Suddenly, Shen Yuzhi’s shocked voice sounded in his ears: “Second brother? Chu Hua?”

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Although Shen Yuzhi knew that Bai Chu and Shen Yingzhi were going out to play together today, it was another matter to see his titular wife drunkenly dragging her brother.

He was so stunned that he didn’t even notice that Pei Qian was standing next to him.

Shen Yongzhi was very calm, smiled at him, somewhat helpless: “I only ordered a pot of wine, I drank two, but after a trip out, I found that Chu Chu drank the rest, no, I’m completely drunk.”

Pei Qian pouted secretly beside him, and his boudoir name was called, this Second Young Master Shen really doesn’t treat himself as an outsider.

Shen Yuzhi’s heart was a little sour, but intellectually speaking, he had long known that Chu Hua and the second brother had a better relationship, otherwise he would not have ignored him and asked the second brother to leave the house.

You can’t blame her either. He disappeared for several days from the night of their marriage, so it was right that Chu Hua was estranged from him.

Shen Yuzhi was silent for a while, then raised a slightly stiff smile: “Second brother, Chu Hua has caused you trouble, I will ask Ah Hao to ask for a few more pots of wine, you can go with us to Tianhong Residence, It’s just that I apologize to you on behalf of Chu Hua.”

Shen Yuezhi stared at him for a while, then smiled, “Alright.”

In the end, Bai Chu was naturally the same carriage that Shen Yuzhi returned to the house.

After drinking the hangover soup and taking a nap in the wing for a while, her consciousness has almost recovered, but her head still hurts badly.

Shen Yuzhi poured clean water for her, and said softly, “Go back at night, put a cold handkerchief on it before going to bed, and it will be relieved a lot tomorrow.”

Bai Chu looked up and joked: “The third young master seems to have a lot of experience in drunkenness?”

Shen Yuzhi smiled helplessly: “Chu Hua, don’t call me the third young master in the future.”

“Ah?” Bai Chu rubbed his forehead, “Why?”

“After all, we’ve already gotten married,” Shen Yuzhi blurted out, her pale cheeks flushed a little, “Even though… we have known each other since childhood, you can just call me by my name.”

Bai Chu’s eyes flashed, she looked over with a smile, and called out softly, “Yuzhi?” Capturing the gleaming light in his eyes, but before the joyful expression appeared, she changed her tone in a flash, “Forget it. , we are not a real husband and wife, and it’s weird to call you, I’ll call you the third brother, just like the second brother.”

Her bright smile is sincere and pure: “In my heart, you are all good brothers who can be trusted and depended on.”

Shen Yuzhi opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say.

Are they not a real couple because he ran away on their wedding night? Shen Yuzhi considers himself to be an open-hearted person, and it’s not that he regrets anything until now, but just thinking that if he hadn’t left home that night, the two might have been married, and his heart seemed to burn. A cluster of flames ignited, burning the surroundings with scorching heat.

Even intellectually, he knew that at that time his heart was full of Bai Yinhua, and even if he stayed, it would not change anything, but there was a slight possibility.

What about him now?

Do you still like Yinhua?

Shen Yuzhi was a little dazed. He didn’t have much experience in emotional matters. Bai Yinhua grew up with him since he was a child. He knew very early that there was a marriage contract between the two, so he naturally regarded each other as a lifelong partnership. ‘s wife.

But the current situation is completely out of his control.

He had already decided to have a good life with Chu Hua. Occasionally, when he saw Chu Hua getting close to his second brother, he would feel sour in his heart. So, do you like it?

Or is it simply a husband’s possessiveness towards his wife?

Bai Chu saw that Shen Yuzhi’s face was red and white, and he didn’t bother to guess what he was thinking, so he leaned back and closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing this, Shen Yuzhi hesitated, but did not bother her in the end. She unfolded the little thin quilt beside her and gently covered her body. She stared blankly at her sleepy eyes with complicated thoughts in her mind. , came to a realization.

Shen Yuezhi said he wanted to take her out of the house to play, but he came back after only one trip to Guangjulou. Bai Chu didn’t want to give up, and wanted to find him the next day.

However, when he arrived at Jingniantang, he heard that the second young master was not in the mansion today.

After two times in a row, Bai Chu simply left the letter and asked the servants of Jingnian Hall to pass it on, and then went to Mo Tangxuan.

Shen Yongzhi was not at the mansion for several days, but Shen Yuzhi was rarely there every day.

After reading the book he borrowed from Shen Yongzhi last time, Bai Chu thought that Shen Yuzhi was just as famous as Shen Yongzhi, and that he should have a lot of books in his study, that’s why he came here. .

Seeing her coming, Shen Yuzhi was quite happy, but the books he loved on weekdays were all poems and poems or famous ancient books. The content of the words and sentences was obscure and difficult to understand, and it was definitely not easy for Bai Chu from later generations to understand. of.

“Third brother, do you still like to play the piano?” Bai Chu turned to a piano score, only to see that the cover was simple and yellowed, and there were no wrinkles on the whole body. It could be seen that the owner was well preserved, but even so, there were gaps in the corners. It’s been a long time.

Shen Yuzhi’s expression was stagnant, and she said softly, “I can’t say I like it, I just know it.”

Seeing that he was a little different, Bai Chu searched it out from his memory. In the past, in the garden of Bai Mansion, he and Bai Yinhua often played together with the qin and xiao, making others envious.

The most representative of the others is the original owner.

She and Bai Yinhua were inseparable. Whenever this time, she could only stand by Bai Yinhua’s side and appreciate it, she really looked like a slave.

Bai Chu’s slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and he looked down at the piano score in his hand, so, is this reserved for Bai Yinhua?

“Yes, the third brother should be the best at Xiao.”

Shen Yuzhi pursed her lips and smiled slightly: “I haven’t touched it for a long time, and I don’t dare to say that I’m good at it.”

“Can the third brother teach me?” She turned around and looked at him with a smile.

Shen Yu was stunned, “Do you want to learn Xiao?”

Bai Chu’s eyes were slightly swaying, tactfully turned, and smiled and glanced at the piano score: “Whether it’s the piano or the flute, I want to learn it.”

“Am I being too greedy?”

Shen Yuzhi shook his head: “I also asked my elders to hire a master because I liked music theory. Not only the qin and the xiao, but I liked everything at that time, so everything was involved.” There was a smile on his lips, black His eyes were clear and bright, “If Chu Hua wants to learn, I will teach you.”

Bai Chu smiled slowly: “Then thank the third brother.”
