"It's getting late, I'm going to rest." Su Xian yawned and looked at Chen Keyan wrapped in the quilt, his eyes burning and scrutinizing.
Come and try it quickly. 】
Chen Keyan was a little embarrassed. She twisted her body tightly wrapped in quilt, looked sideways at Su Xian and said with a smile: "Master, Miss Yang, can you... go out for a while?"
Su Xian glared and scolded: "This is my room, you have to go out if you want to, so hurry up!"
"Sir, Rong Nu's family needs to change some clothes..." Chen Keyan is used to acting coquettishly and cutely, her bright eyes are dazzling, making people unable to bear to refuse her small request.
Su Xian didn't want to listen to her. He glanced at Yang Zhilan and ordered: "Get her out of bed."
Yang Zhilan had long been dissatisfied with Chen Keyan's words and deeds. After receiving the order, she didn't hesitate at all. She leaned forward, grabbed a corner of the quilt and pulled hard...
"ah……"
Accompanied by a loud and piercing scream, Su Xian's eyes suddenly widened, his mouth opened slightly, and his face was filled with disbelief.
He originally thought that Chen Keyan was wearing tight-fitting night clothes.
But... the moment the quilt was pulled off, he clearly saw a smooth and delicate body.
Although her delicate body immediately curled up into a ball to protect the key points, he could still see clearly that Chen Keyan was really naked.
…
Half an hour later.
The night is already dark.
Su Xian lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep for a long time. The image of Chen Keyan, clean and naked, appeared in his mind from time to time, and he couldn't get rid of it.
This is the second time that he has looked at Chen Keyan...
Next to the bed, on the floor, Yang Zhilan was lying motionless on it. When she heard the slight sound of Su Xian turning over, she slowly opened her eyes, looked sideways at the bed and asked:
"Sir, let me knock that vixen unconscious and kidnap him?"
Su Xian's head popped up from the edge of the bed and said in shock: "What are you talking about?"
"It's okay..." Yang Zhilan didn't say much. She turned her head back, closed her eyes, and said, "It's late at night. Young Master, please rest early. There are still many things to be busy with in the next two days."
"OK……"
Su Xian retracted his head, closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep. The night was as cold as water. He didn't know when he finally fell asleep, his breathing long and lingering.
Yang Zhilan opened her eyes, glanced sideways at Su Xian's bed, and then turned back, seeing darkness in front of her eyes.
She secretly thought in her heart: "The day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the master's big day, and I... I don't know if I can survive it..."
"..."
at the same time.
Yingzhou Yamen, the back house.
Tang Ju and Mrs. Chen were sitting and chatting in the living room.
The two of them looked at the path outside the living room from time to time, as if waiting for someone to arrive, but the moonlight and lights outside the living room complemented each other, and there was no one there.
"It's already dark. I don't expect that girl Minglan to come. Let's go back to the room and rest early." Tang Ju stood up, yawning profusely, not wanting to wait any longer.
"Okay, let's wait until tomorrow." Mrs. Chen also stood up.
But as soon as the two of them moved, a voice holding their throats shouted from outside the living room: "Alang, madam, the slave is here..."
The two of them looked up and saw a maid holding a lantern appearing on the path outside the living room.
The maidservant tiptoed, using a lantern to look into the flowerbeds by the road from time to time, as if she was worried about what was hidden behind the flowerbeds.
This woman is Minglan.
The "double agent" planted by Tang Ju.
This girl is afraid of the dark in her own home... Tang Ju and Mrs. Chen looked at each other, ignored these details, and waved to Minglan to come into the house.
After Minglan entered the house, Mrs. Chen immediately asked: "Why are you here so late? How do Wan'er and Huixiang get along?"
Minglan put down the lantern, stared and lowered her voice and said, "Madam, the young lady is playing the piano, reciting poems, and doing embroidery with my cousin. They get along very well, just like sisters."
Tang Ju and Mrs. Chen looked at each other and nodded. Tang Ju looked at Minglan and said, "I understand, you can go back and advise the two sisters to rest early."
"oh!"
Minglan left with a lantern in hand. Every time she passed a dark and shadowy place, she would put the lantern over to illuminate it. Only when she found no danger did she continue forward.
Tang Ju and Mrs. Chen stood in the living room. After watching Minglan's back disappear, Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "We can rest assured that Wan'er and Huixiang are as close as sisters!"
"Not bad!" Tang Ju yawned and nodded.
"Tomorrow morning I'll go check out Huixiang's story. If the time is right, you'll go find Nephew Su Xian right away...I guess those families in Shendu have probably sent people to Yingzhou. We can't fall behind."
"Madam, don't worry..."
"..."
The other side.
In the small courtyard where Tang Shuwan lives.
The lights have gone out.
Liu Huixiang and Tang Shuwan, who fell in love at first sight and were as close as sisters, finally fell asleep and slept together.
Liu Huixiang couldn't fall asleep for a long time, maybe because of the new environment, or maybe because of her new distant cousin Tang Shuwan.
Through this short half-day exchange, Liu Huixiang can conclude that this distant cousin is worthy of being a role model for everyone, gentle and approachable, knowledgeable and polite...
Not only that, she was nineteen years old and the legitimate daughter of the Tang family, a wealthy family. She had excellent conditions in all aspects, making her an excellent candidate for Su Xian's wife.
In other words, Liu Huixiang has long given up any illusions about Su Xian's position as the head wife.
She has already thought clearly about finding an excellent wife for Su Xian, not only for Su Xian's future, but also for her own future life.
She had been wandering for several years, longing for a stable life. Naturally, she hoped that Su Xian's future wife would be a woman who understood the general situation and would not scheming and fighting all day long, making the family uneasy.
Obviously, her distant cousin Tang Shuwan, who was lying next to her and sleeping with her, was the ideal candidate.
It was late at night, and Liu Huixiang was not sleepy at all. Her watery eyes kept turning, silently thinking about something in her heart...
What she didn't expect was that Tang Shuwan, who was lying next to her, had not fallen asleep for a long time.
Tang Shuwan always felt that what happened today was a bit deliberate. She was kind-hearted and wanted to confess everything to Liu Huixiang, but at this point, she could only "go to the dark side"...
…
The next day.
When the morning sun rises slowly, the entire Tang family has been decorated. Red lanterns and red characters "囍" can be seen everywhere, giving it a festive look.
Mrs. Chen rushed to Tang Shuwan's courtyard early in the morning and picked an opportunity to chat with Liu Huixiang alone.
After the chat, she looked happy and went to Tang Ju and said, "Okay, hurry up and talk to Nephew Su Xian. People from other families will arrive in Yingzhou today, and we can't let them get there first."
Tang Ju said: "Okay, I'll go find Nephew Su Xian..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant suddenly came to report: "Su Xian and Su Xianyi came to visit. He is already in the front hall."
"Just in time!"
Tang Ju immediately strode to the front hall, closed the door and chatted with Su Xian for a long time.
