Chapter 92: Better to Not Button it Up
顾云兰嘴角一抽，去寺庙祈福？她把目光看向了轩辕应，他撇过头吩咐道，“寺院没水，你家小姐几天没洗澡了，不是让你备了热水么？赶紧带她去，洗干净好过年！”
Gu Yunlan hooked up the corners of her mouth; went to the temple to pay respects? She turned her gaze onto Xuanyuan Ying, he met her gaze to instruct, “The temple courtyard has no water, so your family’s Young Miss hasn’t taken a bath in a few days. Didn’t I ask you to prepare some hot water? Quickly bring her there to wash clean for the New Years!”
“是！”轩辕大帅发了话，欣儿不敢不听，连忙点头，一把揽住自家小姐的胳膊，带着她朝小院走去，边走边抱怨，“小姐你也真是的，祈福好歹也要带欣儿过去啊，也好照顾你啊！”
“Yes!” Marshal Xuanyuan has spoken, Xin’er doesn’t dare not listen. She hurriedly nodded her head, and pulled her family’s Young Miss by the elbow, leading her towards the small courtyard ahead. SHe complained as they walked, “Really, Young Miss. You should’ve brought Xin’er with you to to pray for luck, or even just to take care of you!”
“轩辕叔叔，别忘了菜！今天的！”顾云兰边走边转头朝轩辕应挥拳头，直到轩辕应朝她点头，她才满意的回过头，听到欣儿的话，她连忙道，“笨蛋！带你过去伺候我？那是享受，哪里诚心了，若是那样，菩萨怎么会保护爹爹？”
“Uncle Xuanyuan, don’t forget about the dish! Today!” Gu Yunlan turned her head around to wave a fist at Xuanyuan Ying while walking. Only when Xuanyuan Ying nodded his head did she turn back around in satisfactions. Hearing what Xiner said, she immediately went, “Idiot! Bring you to watch over me? That is a luxury, where’s the sincerity in that? If I did that, how would Buddha protect father then?”
说到菩萨，她想起了吃斋念佛，对吃斋，“对了，欣儿，为了表示我的诚心，以后我的饭食，荤的就不要加进去了，包括猪油！”
Speaking of Buddha, she remembered about fasting and reading scriptures. About fasting, “Right, Xin’er, in order to express my sincerity, don’t include no-vegetarian dishes in the future, this includes pig oil!”
“可是不放油你吃什么？多没营养？”欣儿松开她，走到院门前，把院门推开，嘀咕道，没有油的饭菜可不好吃啊！
“But if I can’t put oil then what else is there to eat? You’d be missing some nutrition?” Xin’er bit back. Letting go of her to walk to the courtyard gates, she pushed it open. Dishes without oil don’t taste good!
TLN: Flashback to the time a SiChuan restaurant owner said “沒油不好吃！沒油不好吃的！“ when ppl complained about the food being drowned in oil.
“紫家菜都，里面不是新上市了几种油么？我们也去买点尝试一下，你多买点类型的！”顾云兰跟着走进了院子，直接走到西厢院子那边。
“The Zi Family has a lot of dishes, didn’t some new types of oil enter the market? We should go buy some to try out, you should get a wider variety!” Gu Yunlan followed into the yard, directly going towards the Western area.
里面热气腾腾，一进门就感觉到一股暖流迎面而来。
The heat permuted all over, the warm flow could be felt as soon as they stepped through the door.
“你出去吧！我自己泡会儿！”在浴盆里泡着，她只感觉全身的血脉都被打开，舒畅，她抬头看着一旁伺候的欣儿吩咐道。
“You leave then! I’ll soak here myself for a while!” Soaking in the tub, she felt the all blood vessels in her entire body opening up, both relaxing and comfortable. She lifted her head to look at the attending Xin’er to order.
“那小姐好了叫我！我要大厨房看看，别让他们把今年的年夜饭搞砸了！”欣儿点点头，看小姐的样子估计也要泡很久，“这旁边有热水，你自己加哈！”
“Then Young Miss call me when you’re done! I’ll be going to the kitchen to take a look to make sure they don’t mess up this year’s New Years Dinner!” Xin’er nodded her head. Seeing the Young Miss, she guessed she’d be soaking there for a long time, ”There’s hot water over here, add it to your own taste!”
“去吧！去吧！”顾云兰挥手，目送欣儿离去后，才闭上眼睛，狭隘的躺在水里，这丫头太啰嗦了。
“Go now! Go!” Gu Yunlan waved her hand, then closed her eyes after sending off Xin’er. She laid down in the confined space of water, this little girl is too troublesome.
被紫罗兰影响，她现在也设置独立的洗漱室，只是她总觉得不安全，虽然院子里住着的只有她和轩辕应，万一他哪天不对，趁她洗澡闯了进来怎么办？
Influenced by Zi Luolan, she went off by herself to rinse her mouth. However she had an unsafe feeling all along. Although this courtyard only houses her and Xuanyuan Ying, what if something goes wrong one day and he barges in while she’s bathing?
迷迷糊糊中，她在热水中睡了过去。
Amidst her daydream, she fell asleep in the hot water.
“你们家小姐呢？”轩辕应做好一碗菜，抬头刚好看到欣儿也在一旁忙碌着，他边洗手边纳闷的问道。
“Where’s your family’s young miss?” Xuanyuan Ying finished making a vegetable dish, then lifted his head just in time to see Xin’er working nearby. He asked questioningly while washing his hands.
“刚刚在泡澡，不让我伺候，现在估计好了！”欣儿边说，边忙着炒菜，手没停，为了节省开支，厨房只有两位厨娘，没办法，她只能过来帮忙了。
“She was soaking in the bath just now and didn’t let me attend to her. She’s probably about done by now!” Xin’er said while busying herself cooking the food, her hands never stopped moving. In order to save money, the mansion only had two kitchen maids. There’s no other way as she could only go help out.
“这个等下单独端到你们家小姐面前，我先回去换身衣服！”轩辕应指着按台上炒好的菜吩咐道，看到欣儿过来拿碗扣住，他才转身离去。
“Bring this dish alone to your family’s young miss a bit later. I will return first to change my clothing!” Xuanyuan Ying instructed as he pointed to the finished dish on the counters. Only after seeing Xin’er coming over to cover it up with a bowl did he leave.
从房里换好衣服出来，在院子转了一圈，没看到顾云兰的身影，他纳闷的朝她房间看了一眼，房门是开的，里面空无一人，人呢？不会洗澡的时候睡着了吧？
Since coming out with fresh clothing, he’s been wandering around the courtyard yet still hadn’t even seen a shadow of Gu Yunlan. He looked towards her room in confusion. The door was open but there was no one inside. Where’d she go? She couldn’t have fallen asleep when bathing?
轩辕应眉头微皱，从欣儿去厨房，足有半个多小时了，她还在浴室？想到这里，他大步流星的朝西厢房的浴室走去。
Xuanyuan Ying creased his brows. From Xin’er arriving to the kitchen till now about half an hour had passed. Was she still in the bathhouse? Thinking of this, he strode swiftly towards the west-side bathhouse.
一个无意，顾云兰感觉只身到了春暖花开的秘境，这里很暖很美，就像是个世外桃源，她很开心，一个人也玩的自在，扑蝶，摘花……
Unintentionally, Gu Yunlan felt as if she were immersed in a warm, budding, spring illusion. She felt very warm, very comfortable, as if she were in an otherworldly peach garden. She felt very happy playing around by herself. Watching flying butterflies, picking flowers…
忽然一阵寒风吹来，她打了个寒战，纳闷的站起身，雪地！她什么时候到了雪地了，冷！越来越冷了……
Suddenly a cold wind blew through, causing her to shiver from the cold. She stood up numbly, a snowscape! When did she come to a snowscape, freezing! It’s getting colder and colder…
轩辕应看着水里只露脑袋，眉头深皱的顾云兰，眉头皱起，果然，这女人在水里睡着了，看这水温就知道很凉了。
Xuanyuan Ying stared Gu Yunlan in the water, whose eyebrows were creased and only her forehead showed above the water. His brows furrowed, as expected, this woman fell asleep in the water. He could tell the water was cold by just looking at it.
虽然他看着她，却也不敢往水下看，光看她露出的肩膀，就足够让他的心跳加速，他连忙撇开眼睛，伸出右手摸在浴盆外，心意一动。
Although he watched her, he still didn’t dare look lower than the water. He only looked above the shoulders but it was enough to speed up his heartbeat. He immediately tore away his gaze, then reached out his hand to touch the basin and made a command.
不出片刻，浴盆的气体就热水直冒，看到她展开的眉头，既然她在做梦，嘿嘿，他忽然玩性大发，转身出了浴室……
A short while later, steam rose from the basin as the water heated up. Her brows relaxed, clearing she was dreaming. Hei hei, suddenly he felt a mischievous urge, he turned around and left the bathhouse…
顾云兰原本冷的发抖，谁知环境一变，又暖和了起来，顾云兰没来得及欢喜，突然黑雾大起，阴风阵阵，顾云兰一个没站稳，朝一边倒去。
Gu Yunlan was originally so cold that she shivered, who knew that the surroundings would change and she once again felt warm. Gu Yunlan didn’t have the time to feel happy when a black fog suddenly appeared. Yin winds blew and as Gu Yunlan didn’t stand steadily, fell to one side.
就在她快要倒地时，黑雾迅速把她卷起，带到了半空中，顾云兰慌了，这什么东西？
As she was about to fall to the floor, the black fog fog quickly wrapped her up and brought her into the air. Gu Yunlan panicked, what’s this thing?
她惊慌失措的看着四周，慢慢的黑雾里出现了一个巨大的骷颅，瞬间就到了她面前，她一时也不知道哪里来的勇气，对着骷颅头就是一下！
She looked around in alarm. A huge skeleton slowly emerged from the black fog, appearing before in a blink of an eye. With confidence coming from who-knows-where, she struck towards that skeleton!
“呀！”顾云兰在水里扑腾了几下，猛的睁开眼，做梦？她居然还在洗澡？看了眼外面的天色，她连忙坐起身爬了起来，迅速的擦干身子，套上里衣，中衣。
“Yah!” Gu Yunlan splashed around the water times before suddenly snapping open her eyes. A dream? Unexpectedly she was still bathing? Glancing at the color of the sky outside, she hurried to sit up and climb out. She quickly wiped her body dry, put on the inner layer clothing, and the middle layer.
不过，外衣，她再次犯难了，又是繁琐的纽扣，去房间要不换件？她思索片刻，便拢了拢外衣，出了浴室。
However, the outer layer. She once again ran into a problem; it’s those annoying buttons again. Should she go back to her room to switch it ut or not? She thought for a moment, at the same time fiddling with her outer clothing as she exited the bathing house.
“啊！”谁知一出浴室，就看到轩辕应躺在外面的躺椅上，双目紧闭，想到刚刚梦里的黑雾，她立刻明了，吼道，“轩辕应！给我起来！”
“Ah!” Who could’ve guessed that as soon as she stepped out the bath house, would see Xuanyuan Ying outside laying down on a reclining chair, his two eyes closed shut. Thinking of the black fog in her dream earlier, she suddenly understood. She roared, “Xuanyuan Ying! Get up right now!”
轩辕应慢慢睁开一只眼睛，见她火冒三丈，就猜到她已经知道，委屈道，“你打了我一拳，刚好抵了！”
Xuanyuan Ying slowly opened one eye, and seeing her fuming in anger, could guess that she already knew. He said as if wronged, “You hit me, now we’re even!”
“抵什么抵？有你这样开玩笑的么？吓死我了！”顾云兰气呼呼的看着他。
“What even? Who jokes around like that? Scared me to death!” Gu Yunlan looked at him angrily.
“咳咳！形象！”轩辕应坐起身，瞄了她一眼，撇开脸，轻咳两声。
“Hai hai! An illusion!” Xuanyuan Ying sighed softly. He sat up and glanced at her for a second before looking away.
“不叫醒我也就算了，居然吓我！”顾云兰走了过去，在他身边坐了下来，活该被她打！
“Forget not waking me up, but you’d even scare me!” Gu Yunlan walked over and sat down next to him. He deserves a beating!
见她依旧无知觉，轩辕应嘴角一抽，难怪前世被人骗，他认命的转过身看着她，伸出手，帮她扣上外衣的扣子。
Seeing her act so stupidly, the corners of Xuanyuan Ying’s mouth twitched. No wonder this person got tricked so easily in her last life. He apologetically turned to look towards her, offered a hand to help her button up her outer clothing.
看到轩辕应的动作，顾云兰脸一红，小声嘟囔道，“我还是不会扣，你刚才吓我，现在，刚好抵了！”
Seeing Xuanyuan Ying’s actions, Gu Yunlan’s face reddened. She grumbled in a smaller voice, “I still don’t know how to button this. Since you scared me earlier, now we’re even!”
“走吧！我们在待在浴室，估计看到的人都会误会，当然，我不会见意！”轩辕应扣好最后一个扣子，看着她湿漉漉的头发，再次叹了口气，伸出手，在她头顶一抹，“你自己去卧室绑头发，这个我真不会！我在院子等你！”
“Let’s go now! As we stay here, I’d have to guess people seeing us would misunderstand. Of course, I wouldn’t mind!” Xuanyuan Ying buttoned the last button. Seeing that her hair was still wet, he took another breath, and stretched out his hand to touch the top of her head, “You go back to your room yourself to bind your hair, this is something I really don’t know how to do! I’ll be waiting for you in the courtyard!”
说完，他立刻站起身，走了出去。
He immediately stood up after finishing his sentence, and walked out.
顾云兰一愣，随即笑开，轩辕应居然脸红了，哈哈！
Gu Yunlan stared for a second, before smiling. Xuanyuan Ying’s face actually turned red, haha!
两人出现在饭厅时，轩辕梦一人坐在圆桌那里，无聊的东看西看，看到两人一起进来时，眸子一亮，“哥！云兰！”
When the two people appeared in the dining hall, Xuanyuan Meng sat by herself at a round table, her gaze flitting around left and right. Seeing the two enter, her gaze lit up, “Big bro! Yunlan!”
“你怎么这么早过来了？”顾云兰拉开椅子，打算在她下首坐了下来，还没坐下，就被冷着脸的轩辕应拉到了她的上首坐了下来。
“How come you’re here so early?” Gu Yunlan pulled aside a chair, about to sit down to her right. But before she could do so, was pulled by the cold-faced Xuanyuan Ying to sit on her left side instead.
“我本来打算上午准备出去玩的，谁知我哥昨晚通知今天中午吃年饭，没办法，只能干等！对了！”轩辕梦有些不好意思的道，“我把张宇他们喊来了！”
“I originally planned on going out to play before lunch, but who knew my brother would announce we’d be eating the New Years dinner for lunch instead. Nothing I can do, I could only just wait here.
她小心的看着自家大哥的脸色，没有变化，他不生气？她连忙趴在桌子上，朝顾云兰一眨眼，“云兰！你们今天早上一起回来的？”
She looked timidly at her big brother’s expression, no change. He isn’t angry? She immediately leaned on the table and blinked towards Gu Yunlan, “Yunlan! You two came back together this morning?”
“多事！”轩辕应冷冷的看了她一眼，站起身，出了饭厅。
“Meddlesome!” Xuanyuan Ying coldly glanced towards her and stood up, leaving the dining hall.
轩辕梦摸摸鼻子，她刚刚那事没惹到老哥，这件事惹到了。
Xuanyuan Meng rubbed her nose. That precious matter didn’t provoker her big brother, but that just now did.
“你的消息倒是灵通！”顾云兰轻轻倒了杯水，抿了一口。
“Your news source is quite quick!” Gu Yunlan lightly poured a cup of water, pursing her lips.
“云兰！你的身体好了么？”轩辕梦关心的问道。
“Yunnan! Is your body alright now? Xuanyuan Meng asked with concern.
顾云兰点点头，放下杯子，“无碍了，你怎么和张宇……”
Gu Yunlan nodded her head, and put down her cup, “Everything is fine, how come you and Zhang Yu…”
“这个……”看到顾云兰转移话题，轩辕梦就知道，她不愿多谈，只能顺着话题聊自己的，云兰有一点，和哥哥很像，不愿意说的，怎么强求也不会说出口，没准还会惹火她。
“This…” As soon as Gu Yunlan changed the subject, Xuanyuan Meng instantly knew she wasn’t willing to talk about it. She could only follow along and talk about herself. Yunlan was a bit like big brother; the things they weren’t willing to talk about, they wouldn’t talk abut no matter how much anyone begged. Otherwise, she may end up provoking her.
“不好意思说？”顾云兰好笑的看着她，刚刚还打趣她呢？
“Too shy to say?” Gu Yunlan looked at her with a smile, wasn’t she teasing her earlier?
在两人聊着的时候，张宇三兄妹走了进来，张起扬的速度很快，他大步走到两人身边，左右上下的打量着顾云兰，“咦？几日不见顾大小姐，好像又漂亮几分！”
As the two people chatted, Zhang Yu and the three martial sisters walked in. Zhang Qiyang was very fast, arriving at the two’s table in large strides. He judged Gu Yunlan up and down, “Yi? In the few days I didn’t see Eldest Miss Gu, it feels like you’ve gotten even prettier!”
顾云兰毫无形象的白了他一眼，“几日不见，你的油腔滑调越来越离谱了！”
Gu Yunlan stared at him expressionlessly, “In these days we haven’t met, your slippery tongue has gotten worse!”
“噗！”轩辕梦笑出声，不过她却仔细打量着顾云兰，“咦？云兰？好像真的变漂亮了，不过，也说不出哪里不一样！”
“Ai!” Xuanyuan Meng laughed out loud, but she did look Gu Yunlan up and down as well, “Yi? Yunlan? You really did become more beautiful, however, I can’t tell what is different!”
顾云兰摸了摸自己的脸，不在意的道，“几日不见，你们当然会觉得我变漂亮了！”
Gu Yunlan rubbed her own face, replying carelessly, “In these days we haven’t met, of course you’d think I became more beautiful!”
“呦！说一句你变漂亮了，你就飘起来了？还真顺杆子往上爬？”张紫妍的声音在顾云兰对面慢慢的坐了下来，有些不屑的看着她。
“Oh my! After one sentence saying you’re more beautiful, you really brightened up? You’re really enjoying the compliments?” Zhang Ziyan spoke up as he unhurriedly sat down opposite to Gu Yunlan, looking at her rather contemptuously.
“你少说一句会死么？还是想我把你赶出去？”轩辕梦冷冷的看了她一眼，要是哥哥在，估计会直接把她丢出去。
“Will you die from saying one sentence less? Or do you want me to chase you out?” Xuanyuan Meng coldly stared at him. If big brother were here, then he probably would have directly kicked him out.
“梦梦！大过年的，别说些不吉利的话。”顾云兰眸子一闪，阻止道，这样的女人，真是胸大无脑，她瞄了眼张紫妍的胸前，她和安姣娜根本不是一个级别的……
“Mengmeng! It’s the New Years, don’t say something so inauspicious.” Gu Yunlan’s pupils flashed, stopping her. She’s really big breasted small brained. Her gaze slipped over to Zhang Ziyan’s breast, she and An Jiaona aren’t even on the same level…
“都来齐了？坐下吧！”轩辕应大步走了进来，直接在顾云兰的身边坐了下来，他身后跟着进来两人，是欣儿和阿沐。
“Is everyone here? Sit down then!” Xuanyuan Ying strided in and directly sat down next to Gu Yunlan. Behind him followedw two people; Xin’er and A’Mu.
“大帅！饭菜已经准备好了！”欣儿看到人已到连忙道。
“Marshal! The dishes have been prepared!” Xin’er hurriedly informed, seeing everyone was already present.
“上菜！”轩辕应冷冷的倒了杯茶水，朝她点点头。
“Bring them up!” Xuanyuan Ying coldly poured a cup of tea, giving her a nod.
阿沐和欣儿的速度很快，不一会儿就把菜上满了。
A’Mu and Xin’er were swift, the dishes were all served shortly.
顾云兰满意的看着最后一个菜放到自己面前，轩辕应的速度挺快的，挺听话的，就不知道他的厨艺如何？
Gu Yunlan looked at the last dish being placed in front of her in satisfaction. Xuanyuan Ying worked rather fast, and listens well. But who knows how his cooking skills are?
她轻轻翻开一看，顿时香味扑鼻，只是她看到里面的菜，却是一愣。
She softly flipped her gaze to look, but was met with a delicious smell at the same time. She blanked out,
“云兰，什么东西这么神秘，居然单独放到你面前！”轩辕梦好奇的看着顾云兰面前盖住的菜。
“Yunlan, what mysterious thing is this, to actually be placed just for you!” Xunyuan Meng stared curiously at the covered dish in front of Gu Yunlan.
“咳咳！”轩辕应轻咳了两声，这丫头皮痒了，看到所有的目光看了过来，他冷冷的命令道，“开饭吧！你们两个也坐下吃吧！”
“Cough cough!” Xuanyuan Ying lightly coughed twice, this girl is too curious. Seeing everyone’s eyes look over, he gladly ordered, “Starting eating! You two sit down too!”
“云兰！翻开看看！”轩辕梦贼兮兮的看着顾云兰面前的菜。
“Yunlan! Open it up and see!” Xuanyuan Meng stared at the dish in front of Gu Yunlan mischievously.
“有什么好好奇的？我身体不适，不适宜吃素菜。”顾云兰无奈的翻开碗盖。
“What’s so curious about this? My body isn’t feeling too well, so it’s better for me to eat vegetarian.” Gu Yunlan flipped over the lid helplessly.
轩辕梦凑过去一看，先是惊愣，随后却是哈哈大笑。
Xuanyuan Meng leaned over for a look, and was shocked. She immediately laughed loudly out loud.
