Chapter 80 Birthday Ceremony

It was evening when we returned to East Lake Courtyard.

When Su Chengrui returned to the room, she saw that there was no one there. She pondered for a moment, as if she had thought of something, then suddenly went out and walked towards the study.

Xiao Zhong half-hid his body behind the pillars under the corridor, raised his head and looked around from time to time, with a nervous expression on his face.

Seeing Qing Juan's figure approaching not far away, he was startled, and when he was about to speak out, his mouth and nose were suddenly covered from behind.

Su Chengrui waved his hand and asked someone to take him down.

Looking through the half-hidden door, the thin and begonia-colored figure inside was lying on the couch next to the table, opening the cabinet beside the bed and rummaging for something inside.

"What are you looking for, do you need my help?"

The woman's clear voice suddenly sounded in the room.

Ah Qing froze, turned her head in surprise, and looked at Su Chengrui who appeared in the room at some time, her delicate face still had a panic that would not fade away in the future, "Su...Susu."

Su Chengrui pulled up a chair and sat down. Seeing Ah Qing subconsciously pinning her hand behind her back, her gaze sank, and she slowly reached out to him, "Bring it."

Ah Qing shook her head, "No."

"Don't make me say it a second time." Su Chengrui's voice couldn't help but turn a little cold.

Feeling the woman's displeasure, Ah Qing bit her lip, then climbed down from the couch, reluctantly moved her body towards this side, and took out the things hidden behind her.

Su Chengrui looked down at the things in his hand, and couldn't help being stunned.

It was a belt for women only.

Ah Qing lowered her head and said, "I...I heard that two days is Susu's birthday, so I came here specially...to give Susu a surprise..."

"For me?"

She was so busy these days that she almost forgot about it.Su Chengrui reached out to take the belt and looked it over carefully.

The black bottom material is covered with a layer of translucent white gauze, and the lotus leaves embroidered with lake green silk thread in the middle of the two layers of material are lifelike, and the stitches and threads are very neat and precise, which is enough to see that the people who made this belt are meticulous. and mind.

Fingertips slowly rubbed against the lines on it, Su Chengrui pursed his lips looking at the familiar stitches.

"No... don't you like it?"

Ah Qing secretly looked at the expression of the woman in front of her, and asked a little nervously.

"Very beautiful." After a long time, Su Chengrui said, a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

Only then did Ah Qing breathe a sigh of relief, but suddenly she grabbed her arm and pulled her. When he turned his eyes, he exclaimed and sat on the woman's lap, subconsciously stretching out his hand to wrap her neck.

"But I don't like it. I want Ah Qing to make one for me."

The woman's voice was low and hoarse, almost speaking with his earlobe in her mouth.Ah Qing's heart trembled, but the hand that subconsciously wanted to push back was frozen in place when she heard the words behind her.

"You...how do you know..."

Ah Qing blurted out subconsciously, she suddenly reacted as if she was speaking, and quickly stopped speaking, looking at the woman's smiling eyes, she was a little guilty and turned away.

Annoyed at being exposed, he raised his hand and thumped her on the shoulder, and said dissatisfiedly, "Huh! I just don't have as good a hand as Brother Bai Jiang, I can't make such a beautiful belt! If you like it, find him Do it for you!"

Angrily, he pulled his belt and threw it on Su Chengrui, twisting his body to get up.

This little vinegar jar!Why do you flip over without moving?
Su Chengrui laughed helplessly, and couldn't help tightening his arms around his slender waist, "Okay, I'll tell him personally at Baijiang, but it's wrong for you to take people's things as punishment..."

Su Chengrui stretched out his hand to pinch that small chin, raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll punish you to make me a purse yourself!"

Ah Qing was startled when she heard the words, "I...I won't!"

"If you don't know how to learn, you can learn! There are many brothers who are good at needlework in the mansion! Or you can let Bai Jiang teach you!"

Ah Qing frowned, turned away angrily, "I don't want it."

"Then you can figure it out for yourself."

Su Chengrui silently counted the days, raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "You still have a month to learn, and I will wait for the acceptance of the Qiqiao Festival one month later. If you are satisfied, the Qiqiao Festival's Lantern Festival I'll take you to play."

Ah Qing wanted to refuse, but when she heard the lights, her glasses lit up and she asked quickly, "Really?"

"When have I ever lied to you?" Su Chengrui smiled lightly and pinched the tip of his nose, telling him to send Xiao Zhong to the warehouse to get any materials he needed.

After coming out of the study, Mu Yu greeted her and came forward to report, "Miss, you are locked in the firewood room."

Su Chengrui responded, and when he came to the firewood room, he saw Bai Jiang tied to a stake.A ball of cloth was stuffed into Bai Jiang's mouth, and when he saw her coming, tears filled his eyes, and his mouth kept whining.

Su Chengrui ordered someone to untie him.

Bai Jiang's legs were bound numb, and he staggered and was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, Su Chengrui stepped forward to help him so that he would not fall down.

"You all go down, I'll talk to him alone." Su Chengrui waved his hand as he spoke, and after the servants retreated, he helped Bai Jiang sit down on the chair, "Come on, be careful."

Bai Jiang nodded, looked at her hands, and said softly in his eyes, "Do you still like the gift for Miss?"

"Your embroidery work has always been outstanding, and your craftsmanship is no worse than that of the embroiderers in Luoshangfang. Your belt is very beautiful."

Hearing the woman's praise, Bai Jiang bowed his head in embarrassment, curled his lips and said.

"Your kindness is in my heart, the gift...forgive me for not accepting it." Su Chengrui paused, and handed over the belt in his hand.

Bai Jiang's smile froze on his lips, and he raised his head to meet the woman's cold face in astonishment.

"Bai Jiang, what I told you last time..."

"Bai Jiang knows what to do." As if he knew what she was going to say, Bai Jiang quickly got up and knelt on the ground and said first, "Miss, don't worry, Bai Jiang knows what to do, I will explain it to the master, and I won't embarrass Mr. Ah Qing. "

Su Chengrui frowned, but this time she was going to make it clear to him once and for all.

"You have been in the mansion since you were young to serve my father, and my father treats you as if you are already out. Whether it was in the past or now, even if my parents intend to match, it is impossible for us to be together."

Bai Jiang suppressed the sourness in his eyes, stretched out his hand and grabbed the hem of her clothes, choked up and said, "I only know that my status is low, I don't dare to ask for any extravagant status, I just want to stay by Miss's side and serve, please don't drive this slave away."

Su Chengrui sighed, "I won't drive you away, but if you want to stay in Donghuyuan, you have to do your own thing, do you understand?"

Bai Jiang pursed his lips tightly when he heard the words, as if surprised at the woman's unfeeling, he gritted his teeth and said, "Miss has done so much, just because I don't want the master and master's husband to have prejudice against Young Master Ah Qing because of slaves."

"Miss is sincere to Mr. Ah Qing, but have you ever thought about whether he is the same to Miss? The existence of the slave did not prevent him from entering the Su residence. Perhaps he didn't want to stay in the Su residence from the very beginning, so he took it. Slave as a knife in his hand, cutting off the possibility of being with Miss?"

After Bai Jiang finished speaking, he waited quietly for a long time.

But the woman in front of him remained silent. He couldn't help raising his head, looking at the woman's always calm face, his expression was startled.

There was no anger or surprise, those eyes were always as deep and unwavering as a deep pool, he actually understood something, the blood on his face suddenly faded, a bold thought emerged, Bai Jiang looked at her with wide eyes in disbelief, "Miss... You...you already knew?"
