129 I can't bear the dust

Zhu Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows, thinking that this must have been done by the naughty Dong Shuzhen.

But why didn't Shuyu stop her?

On the ground in front of the Buddha statue, there were two futons, and on both futons stood a young girl kneeling upright.

The one on the left is taller and is obviously Dong Shuyu, and the one on the right is shorter and is obviously his wife Dong Shuzhen.

Viewed from behind, the two women seemed to have their hands clasped together in front of their chests.



As Zhu Xiuyuan walked into the Buddhist hall, the light coming in from the door was blocked, and the whole room was dark.

Dong Shuyu, who was sitting on the futon on the left, was unmoved, but Dong Shuzhen, who was on the right, suddenly turned her head and looked at the door of the Buddhist hall.

Zhu Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows.

This Dong Shuzhen is not even pious and careless in worshiping Buddha and chanting sutras.

She noticed Zhu Xiuyuan as soon as he came in, which meant that she saw the changes in light and shadow in the Buddhist hall. In other words, she had her eyes open.

You see, Dong Shuyu did not move at all, which means that he closed his eyes and recited the sutra seriously.

"Husband!?"

When Dong Shuzhen turned around and saw Zhu Xiuyuan, a smile immediately broke out on her face.

The contrast between her childish smile and her slightly mature woman's headdress made Zhu Xiuyuan almost lose his mind.

Because it’s so eye-catching.

Some "evil uncles" in later generations will go crazy when they see Dong Shuzhen's costume!

"Zhen'er, worshiping Buddha is more important than sincerity. In front of Guanyin Bodhisattva, you must not talk nonsense..."

Obviously, Dong Shuyu did not notice that Zhu Xiuyuan had entered the Buddhist hall, and thought that Dong Shuzhen was talking nonsense.

Dong Shuzhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Sister, my husband is really here. Husband, why are you back?"

As Dong Shuzhen spoke, she stood up from the futon. Her knees seemed uncomfortable after kneeling for a long time. She even leaned down and rubbed her knees with her hands.

"I'll come back to see you guys on the way!" Zhu Xiuyuan replied, but his eyes passed Dong Shuzhen and fell on the plate of roast chicken on the table.

And grinned.

At this time, Dong Shuyu already understood that Zhu Xiuyuan was really back.

She opened her eyes and glanced back, then stood up and asked Zhu Xiuyuan: "Xiuyuan, what's going on with the plague in the city? How's daddy doing?"

Dong Shuyu was not good at smiling, and his face was always as cold as frost.

Now he was worried about the plague in the city and Dong Cheng's safety. Naturally, he couldn't smile even more, and his whole thin face was full of worry.

She wrapped her hands in her long sleeves, holding down her fluffy and soft dress, and walked slowly. Together with Dong Shuzhen, the two women moved and fell silent, one left and one right, as if:

The two peerless ladies compare in height, and the fairies compete for glory together.

Pearls are as bright as jade, and skin is as beautiful as snow.

Bright eyes and white teeth, sorrow is as sweet as autumn water!

The two of them stood together, as if the entire Buddhist hall was brightened up!

Zhu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, feeling as if he had broken into the "Taixu Illusion Realm" and saw the "Twelve Golden Hairpins" for the first time!

The corner of his mouth moved, and he secretly made up his mind. He must win this battle against the plague, and he must survive!

Because he really couldn't stand the sight of a pair of immortals being infected with the plague.

That is blasphemy!

This must never happen!

"Yes, husband, why didn't daddy come back with you?"

Dong Shuzhen suddenly asked again.

Zhu Xiuyuan came to his senses leisurely, and immediately took out a page of writing paper from his pocket and handed it to Dong Shuyu himself.

Dong Shuyu took it with both hands blankly, and at the same time Zhu Xiuyuan explained: "This is the method for preventing and controlling the plague that we discussed together in the Yamen. It is very useful. You should also implement it at home."

Dong Shuyu stared at Zhu Xiuyuan with a pair of wonderful eyes, unfolded the page of writing paper and started reading.

Dong Shuzhen leaned her head over and started to read.

The method of preventing and controlling the plague was naturally copied into many copies by the scribe, and this copy was one of them.

"My father-in-law went to solve the food problem personally. The main reason I came back this time is to tell you how to prevent and control the plague. I also changed my clothes at the same time."

As Zhu Xiuyuan spoke, his eyes involuntarily slid to the plate of roasted chicken on the table. After seeing the two women reading the page, they finally couldn't help pointing to the roasted chicken and asked: "Is that roasted chicken? It's for food."

I’m afraid the tribute is inappropriate!”

Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen followed Zhu Xiuyuan's fingers and looked back. After a glance, the two women turned their heads at the same time, with blank expressions on their faces.

Finally, Dong Shuzhen explained: "Husband, that is vegetarian chicken, made of white flour."

"Oh..." Zhu Xiuyuan looked embarrassed and quickly changed the subject: "Hey, why don't you see this girl Qiu Wen? I need to change my clothes..."

"Husband, Qiu Wen is huddled in her room and trembling with fear. Please help me change my clothes!" Dong Shuzhen jumped up and offered herself up with a smile.

"Is that so? Okay then!"

Zhu Xiuyuan immediately walked towards the east courtyard.

Dong Shuzhen followed with excitement, jumping up and down, as if the plague that was rampant in the city would not find her.

Dong Shuyu took the page of writing paper and followed her. As she walked, she asked: "Xiuyuan, why do you need to boil water before drinking it..."

Dong Shuyu seemed to be transformed into a curious baby, holding the piece of paper and asking many questions.

Faced with a question from a beautiful woman, Zhu Xiuyuan naturally knew everything and explained it in detail. Besides, this was for home use, so he naturally needed to explain it in more detail.

The three of them walked all the way to the east courtyard and went straight to Zhu Xiuyuan's room.

Because Zhu Xiuyuan only changed his coat, Dong Shuyu did not go out to avoid suspicion, because she still had many questions and she had to seize the time to ask them.

Dong Shuzhen found a thicker coat and put it on Zhu Xiuyuan while Zhu Xiuyuan answered Dong Shuyu's questions.

However, Dong Shuzhen herself was a pampered young lady of the Dong family. She had been served by others since she was a child. It could be said that she only had clothes to put on, food to eat, and mouth to open. How could she help others dress...

A good coat was turned into a "sack" by Dong Shuzhen.

"Where's Qiu Wen? Or where's Xia Wu?" Zhu Xiuyuan covered his face, completely speechless about Dong Shuzhen's "dressing skills".

Dong Shuzhen looked at Zhu Xiuyuan aggrievedly, and said softly: "Husband, I am so useless, I can't even wear a piece of clothing..."

Zhu Xiuyuan consoled him: "It's okay, it's nothing, I don't know how to wear it! Madam, don't worry about it."

Dong Shuyu's face turned slightly red and she said, "Now that time is running out, let me help you change your clothes!"

Her face turned red not because she had to change clothes for Zhu Xiuyuan, but because she had such a "useless" sister!

In these ancient times, it was routine for a wife to help her husband sew a piece of clothing, let alone help her husband dress. It should be as easy as eating and drinking.

But……
