Li Bao stayed outside for a long time. It was very late before he returned to the big house where he lived. There were more than ten people living in the big house tonight. Two candles were lit in the room for lighting. The candlelight was completely immortal. , it was already late at this time, many residents had fallen asleep, and some people made a slight sound of sleeping soundly.
Li Bao walked back to his bed quietly and saw that Li Zheng, who was nearby, had already fallen asleep. He was lying with his back to the outside and towards the inner wall. He didn't know if he was asleep or not. Li Bao didn't disturb him and took off his clothes by himself. He took off his shoes and lay down to sleep.
It's just that Li Ding feels uncomfortable in his heart and can't sleep. He always feels that the past is so vivid in his mind that he can't fall asleep. He remembers that Li Zheng told him about his own past when he was drinking with him today. It's so similar to his experience. It's hard to feel calm anymore. .
I don't know how long it took, but Li Bao still couldn't fall asleep. He turned over and lay down. He accidentally saw Li Zheng lying on his back, holding something in his hands in the dark, and seemed to be eating something. , Li Bao was a little curious, so he slowly sat up straight and looked attentively. He was a martial arts practitioner and his eyesight was stronger than ordinary people. Although the lights were dim, he could still see clearly. It turned out that Li Zheng was holding his hands tightly. He was wearing a pair of shoes and was biting the shoes with his teeth with a ferocious expression. The shoes were a pair of black cloth shoes with gold thread embroidered on them. They were a pair of women's shoes.
Li Bao was afraid that he would find out that he was peeking, so he lay down carefully and quietly. For some reason, he was afraid of this young man with whom he had been drinking and talking not long ago, so he lay down quietly. After a long, long time, when he turned around to look again, Li Zheng was already sleeping facing the wall again.
Li Bao lay there for a while and heard the crow of the rooster. He sat up, took the Persian scimitar hidden under the bed, wrapped it in a rag, and carried it out of the big house. The rain had stopped at this moment. He walked to a small alley far behind the big car shop. The road here was paved with bluestones, so although there was water, it was not muddy. Li Bao practiced martial arts morning and night and never slackened off. Although he didn't sleep all night, he still Get up early and come over to practice swordsmanship.
He drew out his sword, opened his stance, and used what he had learned in his life. The sword flashed, and he flew up and down. Sometimes he was as light as a swallow touching water, and sometimes he was as dignified as if he was carrying a thousand kilograms of weight. He swept his legs across the ground. A little bit of accumulated water and fallen leaves were swept away by him. Li Bao practiced two sets of sword skills one after another. The third set of sword skills had just started, but he suddenly stopped and took the scabbard by himself. He slowly put away the Persian scimitar.
Li Zheng walked slowly from the alley behind him and stopped seven feet behind him. He said slowly: "What a fast sword. Your master is Luoyang Kuai Dao Tian Chonggui. I have met him before." .”
Li Bao looked up at him and whispered, "You are here for me."
Li Zheng smiled and said: "That's not true. It was just a coincidence that I heard about Xiongtai. What you are going through right now, I also experienced the same thing not long ago. We all have the same enemy. Why not work together? Get rid of this despicable and shameless womanizer and take back the woman who belongs to you."
Li Bao looked at him for a long time and then said in a low voice: "Is what you said before true or false?"
Li Zheng took another step forward: "It's absolutely true. I can take you to see a person. This person has been following the thief. You can ask him personally."
Li Bao walked past him and said, "We are not from the same place."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Li Zheng said hurriedly: "It doesn't matter whether we are traveling with him or not. What matters is that we all want the woman in our hearts to return to us."
Li Bao acquiesced in silence and continued to walk with his head lowered. Li Zheng's tone immediately turned cold and said: "I have a sharp knife, but I turned out to be a coward. At this moment, Miss Baozhu must be lying naked in the arms of the thief, and you too I don’t dare to save him.”
This sentence was so exciting that Li Bao turned around, reached out and grabbed Li Zheng's shirt, pulled it to his eyes and shouted: "What did you say!"
Li Zheng did not resist at all, but faced his angry gaze and said, "Did I say something wrong? I dare to risk my life anytime and anywhere for the woman I love. Do you dare?"
Li Bao stared intently at Li Zheng's face. Li Zheng met his gaze and looked directly at him. There was a trace of contempt in his eyes. He was cruel to others as well as himself. This look actually made Li Bao suppress his emotions. Angry, he let go of his clothes and pushed Li Zheng a step away.
Li Zheng looked at him and sneered, and then said: "I have a plan that will allow you to get her back in the shortest possible time without any trouble. Do you want to listen to it?"
Li Bao hesitated for a long time, neither speaking nor taking action. Li Zheng saw him hesitate, so he turned around and walked away. Li Bao saw him gradually walking away, thought again and again, and finally followed him.
Of course, what Fang Jinshi held in his arms when he went to bed at night was not pearls, but gold cotton.
The light rain that night made him sleep so comfortably that it was already bright when he woke up.
He was half sitting and half lying on the bed in a daze for a while. He saw Huang Jinmian standing outside the window, trimming all the rows of potted flowers and plants there neatly with scissors, and taking out half of the flower soil. , use a thin basket to separate out the stones and dead leaves, put them back into the flowerpot and compact them.
Fang Jinshi sat and watched her finish all this, and couldn't help but said: "You are really free."
Huang Jinmian turned around and said: "These flowers and plants, if you don't take good care of them, will grow very slowly. When you do something, you either don't do it, or you do it well."
Fang Jinshi quite agreed with what she said. Huang Jinmian arranged the flowers and plants and put away the tools. Seeing that Fang Jinshi was still lying on the bed and couldn't get up, he came over and said, "Aren't you going to the store today? You can't get up so late."
Fang Jinshi yawned and said, "I've recently gotten sick. If I don't hug or kiss a woman when I get up, it's hard for me to get up."
Huang Jinmian looked at him and sighed with a smile, then walked to him. Fang Jinshi put his arm around her waist, then shook her hand and said, "You still understand what I say best in the world."
Huang Jinmian pretended not to be angry and said, "If you say something so straightforward, even a fool will understand."
Fang Jinshi hugged her a little tighter, held her to his chest and smiled: "You are so smart, how can you be a fool? Even if you are a fool, it is comfortable to be held by such a beautiful woman."
He hugged and kissed her for a while, then let go of Huang Jinmian and said, "This illness will be cured after a hug. I want to get up."
Huang Jinmian said: "Then get up quickly. There was a magpie chirping in the yard just now. Something good must be coming to you today."
Fang Jinshi put on his clothes and shoes and said, "The saying that magpies announce good news is really magical. Even the magpies know that I am going to have a wedding banquet today."
Huang Jinmianqi asked: "What kind of wedding wine are you serving?"
Fang Jinshi put on his shoes, stamped his feet and straightened his clothes before replying: "There is a woman who has been here for so long. Although everyone agrees that she is my woman, it seems unreasonable not to formally announce it over a drink. , I invited some business friends. A Persian prince is also coming today. You should also prepare well. By the way, I asked some of Baozhu’s sisters to come over and have some fun. You should be more open-minded and don’t look down on others. look."
He finished speaking to himself, and then went out. Huang Huangmian's expression gradually changed after listening to his words. Although she had long thought that Baozhu might officially come in one day, she didn't expect it to be so sudden.
Huang Jinmian sat in the house for a long time, staying there until almost noon. She heard the noise and bustle in the yard in front, and she felt very unhappy. She was thinking about how to vent her anger. She had just left the house. , a servant who usually works in the kitchen came over and said: "Master, please ask the young lady to come to the front."
Huang Jinmian followed the servants to the front yard angrily, and saw six or seven tables of banquets set up in the living room. Fang Jinshi was chatting and drinking with a young foreigner with a beard at the upper table. This was his invitation. Most of the guests were business associates, and most of them were unknown to Jin Mian.
Baozhu changed into a new suit and sat on Fang Jinshi's right hand side. She used to be a cold beauty, but now she had a knowing smile on her face.
When Huang Jinmian saw her, she felt jealous all her life. She had always thought that a woman like her who had read so many books would not have the same mentality as those jealous women on the streets and in the countryside. Who knew that in fact, when things happened to her, she would be the same. the same.
Huang Jinmian stood far away. She saw a vulgarly dressed woman holding a wine jar at a banquet. She walked up to Fang Jinshi and said with a charming smile: "Fang Guan, let me toast you and wish you a prosperous business." , make a lot of money."
Fang Jinshi picked up the wine glass in front of him and said, "I appreciate Miss Yanyan's good wishes."
Just as he was about to drink, Shi Hao next to him said: "What Miss Yan Yan said is not wrong, but Mr. Fang is not opening a shop. Today, he is bringing in concubines to serve wine. It would be more appropriate to say that we should marry in pairs and have a son early." .”
Zhu Yanyan smiled and said: "I know that Mr. Shi has read the books of sages and understands how to speak, so don't pick on me, a woman who doesn't know a few Chinese characters."
Shi Hao said hurriedly: "It's easy to talk about."
Zhu Yanyan turned to Fang Jinshi and said, "Fang Guan, although I haven't read any books, I can sing and play the piano, and I can also cook some delicious side dishes."
Fang Jinshi smiled awkwardly after hearing this and said, "Miss Yanyan, I understand. Later you can sing some tunes for everyone to make it fun."
Zhu Yanyan agreed with satisfaction. When Fang Jinshi saw Huang Jinmian standing at the door of the house, he walked over by himself. He put his hand on Huang Jinmian's waist and whispered: "Didn't I tell you to get ready? I won't change into something festive." clothes."
He quickly whispered these words, then hugged her and took a few steps forward. When he reached the middle of the living room, he said in a loud voice: "Everyone, everyone knows that my good wife has been with me for a long time and has never wavered. I always owe her a favor when I invite you to the banquet, and today I have officially made up for it."
He suddenly said this seriously, even though everyone knew that what he said was wrong. Huang Jinmian could not be a "good wife". She was a concubine no matter what, but maybe he just wanted to say something to Huang Jinmian. , in his mind, Huang Jinmian is actually a wife.
Huang Jinmian never expected that the so-called bride's banquet today was not for Baozhu, but for herself. Looking at Baozhu's expression and the expressions of the people in the house, she suddenly understood that everyone in the family had Everyone knew that, but she didn't know that Fang Jinshi did this to give her a happy surprise.
