Chapter 26 -026 The Embarrassing Situation Caused by Scallion Leaves

Bai Zehao got down from the carriage first, and then carefully helped his sister to get down.

Both of them went and sat at the wonton stall.

Zhou Fu was thinking, they had been slow on the way already, and now he wondered how long it would take them to eat, would the young master get impatient waiting?

With this thought in mind, he quickly said to the coachman, “You go to the entrance of the Commerce Association and let the young master know, and then come back to pick Mrs.

Bai.”

At the entrance of the Commerce Association, Du Zhongshu was really getting anxious.

It’s not that he had lost patience, he wasn’t one of those spoiled young masters to begin with, and the other party was a pregnant lady, he certainly didn’t have reason to be upset for waiting a while.

Instead, he started to worry about Bai Ruozhu’s health and felt that Zhou Fu, being young, might be a bit careless and negligent on the way.

Fortunately, he saw his own horse carriage coming over.

He hastily went to greet it, but the coachman got down and saluted him, saying, “Young master, Mrs.

Bai is eating wonton at the market.

Little Brother Zhou Fu asked me to come and inform you first.”

Du Zhongshu frowned, “Why did they start eating at the market?” He had originally planned to sign a contract at the Commerce Association and then invite Bai Ruozhu and her party to a good meal as his treat.

“Mrs.

Bai vomited on the way.

As they passed the market, she saw the wonton stall and wanted to eat.

That’s how it is with pregnant women.

My wife was the same back in the day.

The moment she smelled something good, she couldn’t move.” The coachman added, grinning.

So that’s what happened, Du Zhongshu quickly got on the carriage, “Let’s go, take me to them.”

The horse carriage began to move.

Not long after, Du Zhongshu arrived at the market.

As he got down from the carriage, he saw Bai Ruozhu sitting at a wonton stall not far away, blowing on the wontons on her spoon.

However, he didn’t see anyone else accompanying her.

Just as he was about to go over and greet her, he saw a tall figure carrying a stick of sugar-coated haws, running over to sit next to Bai Ruozhu.

It was her formidable big brother, Bai Zehao.

Bai Ruozhu’s eyes lit up at the sight of the sugar-coated haws in her brother’s hand, “Wow, big brother, you really know me so well.”

Bai Zehao snorted, “Your eyes were practically glued to that haw vendor.

Anybody could see that you wanted some.

Sigh, you’ve become so greedy now.”

From Bai Zehao’s seemingly complaining words, Du Zhongshu detected an undertone of brotherly affection.

“Thank you, big brother.

Give it to me quickly.” Bai Ruozhu didn’t mind Bai Zehao calling her greedy.

After all, she was pregnant now, and being pregnant was a big deal.

“No!

Eat the wontons first, then the sugar-coated haws.

Don’t start vomiting again.” Bai Zehao said sternly, finally looking a bit like a protective big brother.

Bai Ruozhu pouted, “Why did you buy it so early then?

Weren’t you deliberately tempting me?”

Bai Zehao gave her a helpless look, “I didn’t want to either, but the haw vendor was moving further and further away.

If I didn’t buy it then, I wouldn’t have been able to find him later.”

Bai Ruozhu giggled twice and said with a flattering expression, “Big brother, I’ll just have one!” In order to show her sincerity, she held out a finger as fine as a green onion.

This reminded Du Zhongshu of the day at the Bai’s house when Bai Ruozhu held up three fingers to bargain with him.

Yet, it did not give him the impression of crudeness at all.

Her expressions and movements from that day were deeply imprinted in his memory.

On the other side, Bai Zehao was unable to resist Bai Ruozhu’s nagging and could only stretch out the sugar-coated haws to let her bite off one.

Then, he quickly moved it away from her, as if guarding against a thief.

With the haw, coated in golden sugar syrup, biting into her mouth, Bai Ruozhu’s cheeks bulged and her face looked a bit more rounded, which made her somewhat plump face appear extremely cute.

She mumbled, “It’s sour and sweet.

Delicious!”

Bai Zehao tapped her head as if cracking a hazelnut and scolded her with a stern face, “Don’t talk while eating.

You have no manners.”

Bai Ruozhu chuckled twice and started eating properly.

Du Zhongshu watched with unparalleled envy.

They were ordinary siblings, right?

It seemed so heart-warming.

How long had it been since he had a conversation with his own younger sister?

The Du Family had so many rules and ever since they grew older, siblings had fewer chances to meet, let alone his sister acting as affectionate as she did when she was little.

His other brothers and sisters, who were not born of the same mother, were still scheming against each other for family property.

He suddenly felt that being the young master of a wealthy family was rather dull; it was nothing more than owning more riches.

“Young Master, Young Master, what brings you here?” Zhou Fu ran over from a distance and shouted as soon as he saw Du Zhongshu, “Lady Bai and others are eating wontons over there.”

Upon hearing the voice, Bai Ruozhu turned her head and saw Du Zhongshu standing not far from them.

His eyes were bright but flickering, it didn’t seem like he just got there.

Du Zhongshu secretly blamed Zhou Fu’s recklessness.

Now they’d know he’d been secretly watching them for a while, how impolite that seemed.

He stepped forward to pay respects to Bai Ruozhu and Bai Zehao.

By this time, Bai Zehao no longer harbored hostility towards him and since they’d been working together, he’d been rather courteous, even standing up to return the gesture.

Bai Ruozhu, however, didn’t move; her pregnant state would honestly make others feel awkward if she kept standing up and sitting down.

“Master Du, I’m sorry, I’ll finish eating soon.” Bai Ruozhu smiled at Du Zhongshu.

He must have been waiting impatiently.

Du Zhongshu saw Bai Ruozhu revealing her white teeth… only…

there was a piece of green onion in her teeth.

He froze and nearly burst out laughing.

It took him a while to hold back.

This Lady Bai was so interesting.

Other women often try not to show their teeth while laughing.

If they’re not pursing their lips, they’re covering their mouths with their hands.

She, however, was pretty frank, except that when she revealed her teeth she revealed a bit of green onion leaf, which was really funny.

When Bai Ruozhu saw the twinkling in Du Zhongshu’s eyes and the hint of laughter, she wondered what could make him so happy?

Bai Zehao looked at his little sister, and he too almost started laughing.

He gave Bai Ruozhu a signal and bumped Bai Ruozhu with his arm, whispering, “Your tooth….”

Bai Ruozhu glanced at the floating onion leaves in her wontons and her heart sank.

Really?

It was rare that she wanted to be friendly and polite, but she made such a big blooper. freēnovelkiss.com

It was extremely embarrassing.

But who was Bai Ruozhu?

She wasn’t a thin-skinned young lady from ancient times.

She lowered her head pretending to continue eating her wontons and quickly removed the onion leaf from her tooth.

When she finally finished her wonton, she carefully licked her tooth again to ensure that there was nothing that could embarrass her further.

She then stood up and said to everyone, “Sorry to have kept everyone waiting.

I’m done.”

Bai Zehao handed her the sugar coated haws.

She received it and was about to eat when she noticed several men watching her.

Despite being really keen to eat, she ended up refusing.

“Let’s go to the Commerce Association quickly.” Bai Ruozhu said.

“Good, first, get in the carriage.” Du Zhongshu asked the Bai siblings to get in the carriage first before following them.

Zhou Fu slapped his head and handed the oil paper bag in his hand to Bai Zehao, “Master Bai, your sugar fried chestnuts and the change.”

Bai Zehao received the chestnuts, but didn’t accept the change, “I have already said that whatever is left can be used by you to buy tea.” Before leaving the house, his little sister had instructed him to reward the servants, which would be useful while getting work done in the future.

At first, it wasn’t good to casually reward people, so he asked them to run errands and do some small jobs.
