The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 751 The best friend of the reborn daughter of the Duke's Mansion (2)

Su Xiangran looked at Zhou Tianyu in front of her, tilting her head slightly, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

She asked softly, "Does Lord Zhou usually handle government affairs in this field?"

Zhou Tianyu nodded without hesitation and answered as a matter of course: "As an agricultural official, of course I spend most of my time busy in the fields."

Su Xiangran was slightly stunned and couldn't help feeling that her thinking was too narrow.

She originally thought that Mr. Zhou would only come to inspect the fields at specific times, but she never expected him to be so diligent.

At this moment, she noticed the simple coarse cloth clothes on Zhou Tianyu, and a thought suddenly came to her mind - perhaps this official was not just sitting in the court, but was actually working in the fields.

Zhou Tianyu noticed Su Xiangran's gaze and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He subconsciously reached out and tugged at the corner of his clothes, but then a look of regret appeared on his face.

It turned out that there was mud on his hands, and now even his clothes became dirty.

Zhou Tianyu blushed and stammered to apologize to Su Xiangran: "Ms. Su, I'm really sorry, I may have embarrassed you with my appearance.

Usually when I work in the fields, I will change into old clothes to avoid dirtying other clothes. But when I meet the emperor in court, I will be dressed neatly..."

Halfway through the conversation, Zhou Tianyu seemed a little embarrassed. He seldom got along with women, so he was somewhat at a loss.

I don’t know why, but every time I see Miss Su, Zhou Tianyu can’t help but want to say more to her, but he always seems to be unable to find the right topic.

I don’t know if the other party wants to hear what I just said!

As I thought about this, I couldn't help but scratch my head.

"Puchi!" Su Xiangran couldn't help laughing at the other person's embarrassing look, "Master Zhou, please don't put your hand down! There's mud on your head now!"

After hearing this, Zhou Tianyu quickly put down his hands, and his expression became even more uneasy.

Unable to bear seeing him like this, Su Xiangran sighed softly, took out a plain handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to him.

The handkerchief was clean and tidy, with no exquisite embroidery and no names or marks left on it.

"Here, wipe it off!" Su Xiangran said with a smile, her voice charming yet gentle, "If you wait any longer, the mud will probably flow into your eyes."

Hearing this, Zhou Tianyu quickly reached out and took the handkerchief handed over by Su Xiangran, and carefully wiped the mud off his face. His movements were gentle and meticulous, for fear of dirtying this precious handkerchief.

However, when he saw that the originally white handkerchief became dirty in his hands, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty and uneasy.

He lowered his head somewhat uncomfortably.

Su Xiangran didn't care about these. She smiled slightly and looked at the fields in the distance, as if she didn't notice the other party's embarrassment. She asked gently: "Master Zhou, is this your experimental field? What are you planting?"

When Zhou Tianyu was mentioned about the area he was familiar with, he raised his head and pointed to the surrounding fields with a little pride and said, "Yes, these fields are all my experimental fields. Some of them belong to our Zhou family, and some belong to the eldest prince.

But most of them are from the imperial court. The spring planting season has just passed, and they are all planting seasonal crops. However, in order to improve the seeds, there are many varieties and small quantities. "

Zhou Tianyu then gave a detailed introduction to the conditions of the surrounding farmland, including the growth cycles of different crops, sowing times and harvest seasons.

He also shared some agricultural knowledge and experience, which made Su Xiangran smile in her heart: This guy actually likes farming in his life!

Su Xiangran's eyes inadvertently swept across the pink leaf-shaped birthmark on the back of Zhou Tianyu's hand, and a smile began to appear on her face.

How nice! He always comes on time!

In fact, Su Xiangran had already discovered Zhou Tianyu's birthmark last time, and when the other party helped her up, she deliberately touched it with her fingers to test it. It was really the same as in every world. It would turn red as soon as she touched it.

Therefore, Su Xiangran knew at that time: her lover was an identity in this world, but she didn't know why this person had been engaged to someone else, and there were also rumors that he was a wife-killer.

Even though the two people were talking happily, Su Xiangran's maid Qing'e was extremely anxious.

This is so good! Why is my lady so familiar with that Mr. Zhou? This is not a good thing!

"Miss, it's getting late, we should go back to the manor!" Qing'e looked at the sky and said, "The sun is getting hotter and hotter. It's hard to get back a tan."

Before Su Xiangran said anything, Zhou Tianyu felt a little inferior because of this.

In this country, fair skin is the aesthetic standard for both men and women, but he works in the fields all year round, so naturally his skin is not very white.

The more he thought of the appearance of Miss Su's fiancé, the Third Prince, the more frustrated he became.

"What are you talking about!" Su Xiangran glanced at Qing'e and said in a reproachful tone, "A little sunshine won't do any harm!"

As if she had noticed Zhou Tianyu's inferiority complex, she added, "Actually, it's good for men to be like Mr. Zhou. It's healthy!"

I've seen cold white skin in several worlds, and it's nice to have black skin occasionally.
