Chapter 279: Wine and Wine
The next day, the East Palace court meeting was over and Bei Qin was left alone.
"Cousin, my aunt asked me to assign you less work. It has delayed your important life event."
"For the sake of our relationship, I can't let you go like this."
"After you leave the court for the next two months, you don't have to report to work at the Zhanshi Mansion."
"Take advantage of this opportunity to meet him."
Faced with the sudden news, Bei Qin was shocked and at a loss, but also a little surprised, and asked, "So I can stop working?"
Bei Jingchu smiled: "What are you dreaming about in broad daylight? I'm just working from home."
Bei Qin: Haha, it’s still the first time the skin is peeled.
After getting an incomplete vacation, Bei Qin walked out of the East Palace and told the servants waiting at the door: "My mother is anxious and asked me to see the news about others. You spread it."
"Try to spread it to Wanyuan as naturally as possible."
Not long after, a girl came to the East Palace and took the bait.
"Chu Chu, is that Bei Qin engaged?"
The servant brought the tea over. Zhou Huan picked up the wine and prepared to drink it. The next moment he let out a scream: "It's hot! It's hot, hot, hot, hot!"
"..."
Haoyue has already ordered: "Bring some ice."
It is warm spring now, and it is not time to use ice yet.
By the time the ice was thrown up from the ice cellar, Zhou Huanjiu had recovered.
She regained her vitality and defended her behavior: "No, it's just that a little maid told me that she and her childhood sweetheart were good friends who could talk about anything."
"But after that man got married, his wife couldn't stand their excessive interactions. She didn't believe that their friendship was just pure and she thought they were always having an affair in secret."
"The relationship between the two became as distant as strangers. They wouldn't even say hello when they met on the street."
"My little maid also understands. She said that if her husband had a childhood sweetheart with whom he had a deep friendship, she would also be unhappy."
"But it's a pity that such a good childhood friendship has been destroyed just like that."
Bei Jingchu: "So...?"
Zhou Huanjiu clasped his hands together nervously and made a suggestion: "How about I team up with him and live together."
Bei Jingchu: ??? ??? !!! Damn it——when did you fall for him!
"We are so familiar with each other, we won't have any conflicts, and I know our relationship well. I won't be jealous if he gets close to girls like us."
"Don't let the rich water go to outsiders!"
"A virtuous wife brings less trouble to her husband. If Bei Qin makes a mistake and marries a girl with evil intentions, he will be the crown prince's secretary, and it will delay a lot of your work, and it will be a big deal!"
Bei Jingchu controlled the corners of her mouth, suppressed her joy at entering the melon field, and tried hard not to turn into a wild beast.
The melons from acquaintances are the most delicious!
She sighed solemnly, "But marriage is something that cannot be forced."
"What if my cousin doesn't want to settle for someone he knows, and wants to find his own soulmate?"
The person on the other side was a little depressed and replied weakly: "So, you can try to find out what he has to say~"
"Why don't you ask yourself?"
Zhou Huanjiu scratched the rim of the teacup with his fingernails. "If I ask and the result is not good, we can't even be friends."
That makes sense, but Bei Jingchu's focus is not here, but: "No, I still want to know, when did you fall in love with him?"
Zhou Huanjiu changed the subject: "Chu Chu, if you were me, what would you do?"
Bei Jingchu: "Have the guards tie him up, wash him, and send him to my bed."
Zhou Huanjiu: ???
"Just kidding."
Just as Zhou Huanjiu breathed a sigh of relief, Bei Jingchu's voice popped up again: "We need to analyze the specific situation, but I think that for someone like Bei Qin, this method is very suitable~"
