The two of them cuddled together like this, no one wanted to disturb the tranquility.

I don’t know how long it took, but the arm I was holding Ying started to feel numb. Although I tried hard to maintain the posture, I couldn’t help but move. As I moved slightly, Ying quickly sat up, her movements a little panicked.

"Messy", keeping my head down and not daring to look at me. As a man, I am much thicker-skinned. I looked at Ying who was half leaning and half sitting with interest. It was refreshing to see her at a loss.

"Ying, you look so beautiful"

"loquacious!"

Next, the stinging pain on my arm woke me up. The technique, strength, and placement were all very familiar.

"Ying, my memory is blank. I need to get familiar with everything here as soon as possible. I need your help." Leaning on the bed, I took one of her slender little hands, caressed her and said, "Let's start with you first."

"? I want to know what happened between us."

Now that the conversation is open, everything about Wang Xiu's past gradually becomes clear.

Wang Xiu was an only son, which was rare at the time. Wang Xiu's father, Wang Rui, was a standard high-ranking official's son. He came from a good background, had a good family background, and had a strict upbringing. He practiced literature and martial arts at home since he was a child.

Because his elders forbade his family members to engage in politics, Wang Rui could only stay in the countryside of Jingshi. Although he could not serve as an official in the court, he was young and rich, and he was chivalrous and bold. He was surrounded by poets, friends, winemakers and confidante, and he lived a leisurely life.

Xiu's mother was the seventh daughter of Zhang Gongjin, the famous Turkic general. She had a distinguished family background. Because of her respect for his wife's background, Wang Rui did not take any concubines even though she had no children for six years after marriage. It was not until the seventh year that Mrs. Wang gave birth to Wang Xiu.

Shortly after Wang Xiu was born, he got seriously ill and was in poor health. As an only child, he was always doted on by his parents. He got wind and rain when he wanted, and he developed the basic skills of a prodigal son. As he grew older,

, the parents arranged a marriage for their son. Perhaps it was Wang Rui's selfish motives. He was afraid that his son would be wronged when he became a king or other son-in-law, so he arranged an in-law marriage with his friend Chen Gui. The Chen family was originally the largest medicinal merchant in Chang'an.

His family is well-off, but his status is low. Being able to climb into the Wang family is something he can only dream of.

When Wang Xiu was 15 years old, Wang Rui and his wife fell ill and died one after another. As soon as Wang Xiu's filial piety period was over, the Chen family arranged for marriage. Although Wang Xiu was unwilling, the marriage contract was made by his parents before his death, so he had no choice but to marry her.

Chen Xueying married into the family.

When Xueying said this, her eyes were slightly red, which seemed to have touched her heart. I tried to persuade her, and then she calmed down and continued to narrate.

When Wang Xiu was young, a playboy friend gave Wang Xiu a dancing girl to curry favor with the Wang family. His parents were still alive at the time, but Wang Xiu did not dare to take her home, so he bought a small courtyard outside and raised her. His parents passed away.

Later, although Wang Xiu compromised in the face of the arranged marriage, he never showed any favor to Xueying, who had passed the marriage. After paying homage to heaven and earth, he walked away. From then on, he spent time living and drinking, and left everything at home to Xueying.

He never asked. He had been entangled with the dancer for a long time, and he fell in love with her over time, so he came back to discuss with Xueying and wanted to take the dancer as his concubine. Xueying was also a strong woman and firmly opposed it, and the two started to quarrel.

Wang Xiu has been sick since he was a child, and was scolded by the sharp-tongued Ying Yi. He was so angry that he fainted. Then I appeared (I guessed this part~ Ying can't say that she is like a shrew after all)

.

"Ying, then I'm not a bad person, right?" I asked cautiously.

"How can you be considered a good guy or a bad guy? To me, you are a big bad guy!" Ying thought of all the things I did in the past again and pouted at Lao Gao.

"That's not what I mean. What I mean is, have I ever used power to bully others, bully men and women, live in a fish and meat village, or make loan sharks, or force people who can't repay their debts to sell their children or daughters?"

"No, there are not many such things in Chang'an City. With your tutor, it is impossible for you to do such a thing. In fact, if you think about it, although you are unlearned and unskilled, you are not a bad person. You are polite to your neighbors.

, Even if you are kind to the servants, why are you talking coldly to me?" At this point, Ying's eye circles were red again, which made people feel heartbroken.

"Master, madam, the food is ready," the servant's voice came from outside the door.

"Ms. sir, it's time to eat," Ying greeted me, got out of bed and ran to the bronze mirror to sort out her clothes.

I was also arranging the clothes on my body, and I was messing around. "Ying, come here and help me. I forgot how to wear this clothes."

Ying: “………………………………”.

I was so hungry that I ate a lot! The meals for a wealthy family were not as luxurious as expected. Each person had a large rice plate with several dishes, a few pizzas, and a bowl of noodle soup. The dishes were mainly vegetarian, with a chicken leg added.

, a boiled egg. Although it was simple, I still ate it with gusto. It just felt a little different from what was shown on TV. There were no dishes like whole pigs or sheep, let alone fresh seafood.

After dinner, I asked Ying to accompany me around the house. She claimed to be familiar with the terrain. Ying led me left and right, pointing out the home. This is the main hall, this is the study, and this is the bedroom. She gave me instructions in and out.

, I was so excited when I heard it. It’s really big, not ordinary. There are four courtyards inside and outside, and there are five or six round holes and gates.

"There is a garden in front. It's getting dark soon. Let's not go there, right? It's so dark inside at night, I'm scared." Ying hugged my arm and pressed half of her body against me, making me feel a little distracted.

"Is this garden haunted?" I lowered my voice and teased her maliciously.

"Ah!" Ying was obviously frightened, and hugged me fiercely, and then my arms continued to feel pain.

"Don't pinch, don't pinch, I don't dare anymore."

I supported Ying, who was frightened, and returned to the bedroom where I was just now. Although she was startled by me, the fact that I was so frightened that my feet were weak and so on were all made up by her, but... I like it!

"Ms. sir, you haven't recovered yet, otherwise...well...I'll serve you here tonight..." Looking at that delicate, red face under the candlelight, I couldn't help myself.

"You don't usually sleep here?" I asked a little curiously.

"Ever since I entered this house, I have always slept in the back room. You don't usually stay at home. Occasionally, when you come home, you always sleep alone. I..."

Looking at Ying's sad look, I felt really bad. It felt like I had neglected her for so many years. Damn Wang Xiu, he was willing to let such a girl go.

I nodded quickly, not knowing how to comfort her, so I hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it to her hand.

"What do we usually do at night?" I quickly changed the subject to break the awkward atmosphere.

"I don't know what you usually do at night. I just read a book and then fall asleep." Ying glanced at me sideways and complained.

"How about we have some fun? It's just getting dark and it's still early." I said, trying hard to imagine an entertainment project suitable for ancient times, but I didn't even have a clue.

"How about we play a game of Go? I heard that you often play chess outside." Ying's interest was aroused by me.

"I forgot how to play Go." In fact, I don't know how to play Go at all, but I am embarrassed to say that I know Gobang. I feel a bit embarrassed. "How about this, let's take a shower and then go to bed to play..."

".

"What harm do you want to do?" After hearing my words, Ying covered her face in shame and kicked my legs with both feet.

"No, no, you've misunderstood." I was embarrassed and hurriedly explained, "I mean we use chess pieces to guess, and the loser tells a story to the winner. This game requires no mental effort to play, and is most suitable for playing before going to bed.

Play."

Ying took my arm and twisted it hard to cover up her embarrassment, then turned and ran out. After a while, she led the little girl who delivered the glutinous rice in the morning, and told her to serve me, and then she went out again

Flashed.

I knew that she was embarrassed to wash herself in front of me and ran to her room.

The little girl was very quick, washing my face and feet, and she looked like a skilled worker at first glance. I was embarrassed when she did it. I used to participate in various social events, and used various washing methods, but my face

I felt a strong sense of discomfort for such a little girl. Finally, after washing, I quickly said: "It's okay, you can go out. Go to bed early."

"Yes." The little girl bowed her head and went out with the foot-washing water. I still don't know her name, and I can't ask her face to face. I'll talk about it later when Ying comes.

I was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, bored, and a little dazed, when Ying came. As soon as she reached the bedside, I pulled her up, my movements were a bit rough, and I expressed my love with my actions.

Thoughts – I don’t like waiting for people!

"Ouch!" Ying was startled by my sudden movement, and then immediately fought back, pinching and squeezing me, "I told you to scare me, I told you to scare me..." She refused to give up.

I also took the opportunity to keep rubbing oil on her body until she fell limp on the bed. Only then did I realize that she had made herself smell good and fragrant.

Both of them were a little emotional. She closed her eyes, her face was blushing, her mouth was slightly pursed, and her chest was rising and falling.

I gently picked her up, held her in my arms, and slowly took off some unknown jewelry on her head. Her breathing became more and more rapid, which also caused my physical reaction to be extremely violent.

"Guess whether the total number of jewelry in my hand is single or double?" I nibbled on her earrings.

"I don't know...don't ask me." She squeezed her body hard against me. "Go and blow out the wax, I'm sleepy," she said in a dreamy voice.

I knew that it was impossible to start the guessing and storytelling game. But I didn’t want to blow out the wax, so I just put down the curtain on the top of the bed, forming a closed world for two people.
