I got drunk with you all night and fell in love with you until my destiny.
Mi Mi Chengcheng fell asleep in exhaustion, and woke up again. Xu Xiuyi was lying in An Chengshao's arms, with her face facing his chest. There was a wound there, from the shoulder to the chest, Xu Xiuyi gently stroked it.
This wound, when I think of him that night, I can't help but feel distressed.
A pair of big palms gently held her bare hand and pressed it on her chest. Xu Xiuyi raised her head, and An Chengshao looked at him with a pair of dark eyes, filled with deep affection.
"Woke you up?"
Xu Xiuyi asked, he grabbed her hand, put it around his waist, and then pressed Xu Xiuyi against his chest.
Hearing the strong heartbeat in his heart, Xu Xiuyi smiled slightly and kissed his scar.
"Will it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, Xiu'er, how about you?"
His hand moved gently to her lower abdomen and rubbed it gently. He would not forget the way she frowned in pain when he went in. He cherished it and was also happy that his Xiu'er was still a virgin after all.
Xu Xiuyi blushed in embarrassment and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
After the initial pain of breaking the melon passed, I felt overwhelmingly comfortable, as comfortable as if I were in the clouds. One foot was deep and the other was shallow, and my body was floating.
His hand still stayed on her lower abdomen, and he said softly: "Xiu'er, one day, I will give you a title."
When he said this, the reality that Xu Xiuyi ignored began to appear in front of her in a cruel way.
She and Mr. An Cheng are nothing. At best, they are miserable mandarin ducks; at worst, they are adulterers and adulterers.
She was willing to give up everything and go away with An Chengshao to a place where no one recognized them. It was also a happy thing to live a peaceful life.
But in An Chengshao's words, it was clear that it was impossible now, he said - one day.
Xu Xiuyi didn't know which day this would be.
She simply didn't have a carefree personality, so she comforted herself in her heart. She didn't want to do some troublesome thinking at such a sweet time.
For the two of them, a moment together is a luxury, so why waste it worrying about the future that no one knows how it will develop.
He and An Chengshao hugged each other, and neither of them said anything, but a thousand words were lost in words.
His chest was so broad, she only wished that at this moment, there would be no Su family, no Xu family, she would be just an ordinary woman, and An Chengshao would be just an ordinary man.
In the end, this was just her own extravagant wish. Seeing the moonlight getting higher and higher outside, it was already dark.
An Chengshao kissed her forehead reluctantly.
"If you don't go back, I'm afraid the Su family will search for you all over the world."
If what he is saying now is: Xiu Yi, don’t go back, let’s elope.
Xu Xiuyi thought that she would agree.
But he brought her back from the dream to reality. It was not her, but Young Master An Cheng who reminded her that she was the third grandma of the Su family and it was time to go back.
She knew he was doing it for her own good, but maybe the night was a bit cold today, and she couldn't help feeling a little cold.
"Well, it's time to go back."
The two of them were getting dressed respectively. Xu Xiuyi glanced at the blush on the bed and looked up at An Chengshao: "How long?"
An Chengshao was startled: "What?"
"I'm willing to go with you, but how long do you want me to wait?"
A handsome smile appeared on Young Master An Cheng's lips, and he came up and took Xu Xiuyi into his arms: "It won't be long, believe me."
Xu Xiuyi sighed deeply: "I'm always afraid of losing you."
There are some things that you don’t really want at first, but when you really get them, you never want to let them go.
This is Xu Xiuyi's feelings for An Chengshao.
And Young Master An Cheng was like this. He just wanted to finish the things he needed to do as soon as possible and take Xu Xiuyi away. However, that matter could not be rushed. He could only aggrieve Xu Xiuyi and the others.
But knowing that Xu Xiuyi was willing to wait for him made her heart warm and happy.
"You will never lose me. I belong to you alone. Even if I go to hell, in the next life, I will only remember you and recognize you."
"Haha, after drinking Meng Po soup, I forgot everything."
Xu Xiuyi smiled at him, feeling very warm in her heart.
The slightest hint of coolness was diluted by An Chengshao's warm sweetness.
She has never been a sentimental person, so she is feeling sad for no reason at this moment. If the love lasts for a long time, how can they stay together day and night? Just wait, she can't leave here for a while.
She had to give an explanation to the master of the Su family. After all, she had entrusted the whole Su family to her, starting from the beginning and ending well. Now she didn't know what kind of trouble Su Jinyi was going to make. How could she put Su Jinyi in order so that she could return the Su family to peace of mind?
To the Su family.
Both of them can't be free and easy, so it's better to do this first.
She laughed at An Chengshao, but An Chengshao looked at her seriously.
"I am telling the truth. Even if I go to hell, I will not forget you. You are not engraved in my memory. I have integrated you into my bones and blood. What can Meng Po Tang do to me?"
."
"The more you talk, the stupider you get, but..." She raised her face, hugged his cheek, and smiled an extremely sweet smile: "...I like to hear it."
After saying that, he stood up on his tiptoes, pouted his little mouth and gave her a sweet kiss. Before he could escape, An Chengshao bit his lips.
After finally getting dressed, they had to have some lingering. When the two of them stopped moving out of breath, their clothes were messy all over the floor again, and the whole room was full of ambiguity.
After all, Xu Xiuyi was going back. It was already three o'clock in the moonlight. If we continued to delay like this, it would be dawn, and it would be difficult to explain to the Su family.
*
Back at the Su family, fortunately Jin Yu was a smart man and did not alarm the old lady of the Su family. He and Yin Yu only searched for her all over the world.
As soon as she came back, Jin Yu's eyes turned red with anxiety, and he complained to her without caring about the superiority of master and servant.
"Grandma, where have you been? If you don't come back, I will report to the official."
"Old lady, you're not alarmed, are you?"
Jin Yu hurriedly shook his head and saw that Yin Yu was also there. There were some things she couldn't say, so she just said to Yin Yu: "Yin Yu, go get some water for the third grandma to wash her face. Seeing that the third grandma is so busy, she doesn't know where she has gone.
."
After Yinyu went out, Jinyu came over and looked at Xu Xiuyi with a frown: "Someone in the store saw grandma and a man entering the back alley."
Xu Xiuyi was surprised.
But he quickly regained his composure: "What did they say about me?"
Jin Yu hurriedly said: "The slave scolded them and said they were talking nonsense. Grandma had already got in the car and went home. How could she go into the back alley with a man? When they heard what the slave said, they thought they were dazzled and they saw it wrong, so they didn't dare.
Nonsense, originally they relied on grandma for food and shelter, and they didn’t have the guts to say bad things about you, grandma."
Jin Yuguo is a smart maid, and there are some things that Xu Xiuyi doesn't want to hide from Jin Yu: "Jin Yu, I brought you from my natal family. We grew up together. There are some things that I won't hide from you. In fact..."
"Grandma, the water is here."
Just as he was about to say that, Yinyu came in, holding face wash, and asked along the way: "Grandma, where did she go at such a late hour? You can find me and Jinyu in a hurry."
Xu Xiuyi wanted to say it, but Jin Yu was the first to say: "Grandma went back to her parents' house and coaxed Miss Lan to sleep before she came back. I blame my lack of memory for forgetting that grandma told me all morning that she would go back and see Miss Lan. Fortunately,
I didn't bother the old lady, otherwise I might make a big fuss."
"Look at you!" Yinyu put down the basin and walked over to pour tea for Xu Xiuyi.
"What kind of memory do you have, you made me worry for nothing."
Jinyu smiled, admitting her mistake, and said to Yinyu: "You are tired too. I will take care of you here. You go back and have a rest. Grandma, Yinyu, this girl, cried several times when she heard that I said you were missing. She was making trouble.
I was about to report it to the official, but luckily I stopped her, otherwise it would have caused a big mistake, but it would not have disgraced grandma."
Silver Jade Bai Jinyu glanced at her: "You have the nerve to say that I searched twice and couldn't find grandma. My feet are weak. I'm afraid grandma will ask the bad guys to kidnap her."
"Bah, bah, bah!" Jin Yu took a few mouthfuls and pushed Yin Yu out, "Hurry up and have a rest. I'll make some chicken porridge for grandma tomorrow. I think grandma has lost weight from running around and working hard these days."
Xu Xiuyi smiled and looked at the two girls talking to each other. Yinyu was finally pushed to sleep by Jinyu. Jinyu closed the door and came back to look at Xu Xiuyi, her face slightly red.
"Say a few naughty words to her, so as not to make her think that we are heavy and hiding something from her. But she really cried a few times. If grandma doesn't come back, I will cry too. "
As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Xu Xiuyi took her hand, her red eyes were like the sun in June, which made Xu Xiuyi's heart warm.
"I'm not back now, and I won't sneak away again."
"Grandma, let me wash your face for you. It's late at night. Grandma, please go to bed quickly."
Xu Xiuyi nodded. She just wanted to confess to Jin Yu about the matter with An Chengshao, but was interrupted by Yin Yu. Now Jin Yu stopped asking and she stopped talking. After all, in the thinking power of the ancient conservatives, she and
An Chengshao's mutual love is not a glorious thing.
After washing up, Jin Yu went to bed. Xu Xiuyi lay on the bed, also very tired, and slowly closed her eyes.
She had a dreamless night and slept very well. But when she woke up in the morning, her body was sore and aching, as if she was falling apart. She knew that Master An Cheng was torturing her, and she didn't dare to ask Jin Yu to find out the clues. She didn't shout a word,
After breakfast, Baoningtang sent over the account book.
She was right, ordinary business, not much income, compared with the previous accounts, business is worse than when Mr. Su was here.
This was all "entrusted" to Su Jinyifu, who opened a security hall opposite the door. From the perspective of diversion, it was natural that half of the Baoning Hall's business would be taken away.
Xu Xiuyi heard Ah Fu mention it several times that many guests came to the door of Baoning Hall. When they saw Su Jinyi standing at the door of Baoning Hall, they turned around and ran to Baoning Hall.
Su Jinyi spent the Chinese New Year in Baoning Hall. His medical skills are so good that he is a well-known master in the capital. He himself is a living sign.
As for Guan Su Jinye, he has never appeared on the counter before, and he has not had any serious illness recently that has allowed him to show off his skills and become famous. Although he is now a pillar of Baoning Hall, his reputation is still a bit lower than Su Jinyi.
After reading the account book, she rubbed her waist. It was so sore that Young Master An Cheng almost broke her body yesterday.
Thinking of Young Master An Cheng, her originally troubled expression revealed a shy smile.
When Mrs. Su Li came in, she saw her giggling, so she asked in a good mood: "Hey, what happy event has happened to make you so happy?"
"Haha, sister-in-law!"
Xu Xiuyi stood up and greeted her. Su Li and her were now like sisters. They would come to her room from time to time to have fun, and occasionally they would bring Miss Qing over.
Miss Qing completely followed her parents, she was very weak-tempered, but she was very well-behaved.
This time Miss Qing also came, just standing at the door and saying something to Jin Yu.
Mrs. Su Li said hello, and then Miss Qing came in, saluted Xu Xiuyi, and shyly called: "Third aunt."
"What are you talking about with Jin Yu? You are dawdling." Su Li scolded her, but she was not harsh, her tone was gentle.
There was a little light of excitement in Miss Qing's eyes: "Last time, I asked Jinyu for an embroidery pattern. Jinyu knew that I liked those patterns, so he found a bunch of them from somewhere and asked me to go back and get them later."
Miss Qing had no airs and got along well with her servants, who also liked her very much. She often went to Xu Xiuyi's house and became very familiar with the gold and silver jade.
What's more, Miss Qing is over ten years old, and she is about the same age as Jinyu and Yinyu, so they naturally get along well.
When Xu Xiuyi heard what she said, a warm smile appeared on her lips: "Quiet and elegant, Qing girl, do you want to learn some books?"
Miss Qing was trained by the boss and his wife to look like an ancient daughter. She doesn't like reading and literacy, and prefers women's red needlework. When Xu Xiu asked, she shook her head: "I would rather learn guzheng, but my mother doesn't allow it."
After saying that, he looked at Su Li carefully.
Although she is weak-tempered, she is not timid. Moreover, Mrs. Su Li loves her and Xu Xiuyi is gentle. She is not afraid to speak her mind in front of the two of them.
Xu Xiuyi laughed and looked at Su Li: "Why don't you ask her to learn?"
"Don't you look at her hands? She's a girl. Her fingers are as white and tender as green onions. She holds needle and thread all day long and is a good embroiderer. However, these hands are getting calloused. She also learns guzheng, but
Don't wear your whole hand thick, no man will want it in the future."
"I don't want to marry." Qing Yatou argued with a blushing face. Xu Xiuyi chuckled and waved to Su Qingying.
Su Qingying walked towards Xu Xiuyi, and Xu Xiuyi opened her hand. In fact, it was not as exaggerated as Su Li said. These small hands were still pink and tender, and very soft.
"Sister-in-law, the children in the courtyard are only allowed to go out to play once or twice during the Chinese New Year. They are mostly boring. If she wants to learn, just let her learn. I have also learned guzheng since I was a child, and I haven't gotten used to it anymore.
."
Xu Xiuyi opened her palms, which were very beautiful hands.
The nails are neatly repaired, the fingertips are full, the fingers are slender and white, and when moved gently, they are as soft as boneless, as soft as a layer of waves.
In fact, Mrs. Su Li didn't want Qing to learn the guzheng, but she just felt that her daughter would have to do more if she learned it at home.
Now I heard Xu Xiuyi said that she had also learned it and had been studying for many years, so she relaxed: "Today, your third aunt has made you perfect, and tomorrow you will ask the master to come to the house to teach me. I will tell you first. If you
If you don’t learn well, I won’t use my spare money to teach you.”
Su Qingying's face was full of joy and she nodded hurriedly: "Of course I learned it well. I played the first piece I learned to my mother."
The little kid was good at flattering her, so Su Li smiled, her smile full of doting, and said to Su Qingying: "Ask Jinyu for some embroidery patterns, and I'll talk to your third aunt for a while."
"Yes!" Su Qingying happily responded.
Mrs. Su Li still has a gentle and loving smile on her face. At the age of twenty-eight, she is not outstanding in appearance, but she is still a beauty. However, she has been suppressed by the second wife and the old lady of the Su family in the past few years.
It looks a little weak.
Recently, the old lady of the Su family has become ill and has moved out of the second room. Her husband Su Jinye has become the top boss at the counter again. Her face is naturally radiant and she looks young.
Now when she smiles, she looks even more beautiful, and she is a very charming young woman.
"Xiu Yi."
She occasionally calls her the third younger sister, Xu Xiuyi, but most of the time she calls her Xu Xiuyi, which sounds more intimate.
Xu Xiuyi smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, she wants to talk to me about something, so she sent Miss Qing away."
"Haha, you can see that there are some things that are hard to say in front of the child for fear of making her unhappy."
"how?"
Xu Xiuyi didn't know why, but her first feeling was that Su Li was pregnant.
She remembered that when her mother was pregnant with her younger brother in her previous life, she was also the eldest child and was unhappy because she felt that she was no longer the only treasure in the family.
But I heard Mrs. Su Li say: "You also know that after I gave birth to Miss Qing more than ten years ago, I have never been able to conceive a child. I won't hide it from you. In fact, I did it three times, but I couldn't bear it. The good news is about to come."
If I tell daddy, the child will be gone, and I don’t dare to call daddy, which makes the old man sad, so he hides it.”
Mrs. Su Li really trusted Xu Xiuyi, and she did not tell Xu Xiuyi such private matters.
Xu Xiuyi showed a slightly surprised look on her face: "Brother has great medical skills, but he didn't prescribe any prescription for you?"
In modern times, this is probably called habitual miscarriage. In fact, Xu Xiuyi has always been curious about how the Su family could have only one child for more than ten years with such a loving family. Only now does she understand.
Mrs. Su Li's face became heavy and she sighed: "I prescribed prescriptions and took many bitter medicines, but none of them worked. In the past few years, I have simply not been able to get pregnant. Let alone raising a baby, I am dead."
I’m so worried, my stomach is not up to par, I just feel sorry for your elder brother who likes children so much."
Mrs. Su Li shed tears when she said this.
What a virtuous wife, Xu Xiuyi hurriedly comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. In fact, it's good to have a child. Look at me, but I don't have one."
Su Li was afraid of arousing Xu Xiuyi's sadness, so she quickly jumped to the topic: "Let's not talk about this anymore. I came here because your eldest brother's 29th birthday was coming soon, so I wanted to give him a gift.
It’s a great gift, but I don’t dare to make the decision myself, so I came to discuss it with you.”
"What kind of gift?"
"I want to give him a concubine."
"Pfft!" Xu Xiuyi almost vomited blood. How could this Su Li be so virtuous?
Su Li didn't seem to expect that Xu Xiuyi would react so violently. Thinking about it, her thoughts were a bit absurd, but it was not unreasonable.
"I won't give birth. I don't want your brother to die. Every time I see his lonely eyes when he looks at other people holding their sons, I feel terribly uncomfortable. I feel like I'm sorry for him."
What can Xu Xiuyi say?
She couldn't use her modern ways to persuade Su Li.
If Mrs. Su Li is willing, Su Jinye will not object. She really cannot be the evil person in this.
She could only ask.
"What did eldest brother say?"
"I vaguely mentioned once that I have a cousin from my parents' family. When it was time for her to get married, she asked my parents to be a matchmaker. My cousin was not very good-looking, but she was still virtuous and her requirements were not high. She was ordinary.
I can be the first wife or the second wife. If you are from a wealthy family, I am also willing to be a concubine. Let me ask your eldest brother, do you think our Su family is a wealthy family?"
Although the question was cryptic, if Su Jinye had this intention, the meaning of Su Li's words would actually be quite understandable.
"Then what does eldest brother say?"
"Your eldest brother is just a fool. He just looked at a few prescriptions for himself and didn't even say a word to me. He even told me not to disturb him."
It seemed that Su Jinye was focused on Baoning Hall and didn't care about these things.
Xu Xiuyi was persuaded now: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry if I say something that won't please you. You are so stupid. Look at the Su Jiang family. The second brother hasn't taken a concubine yet, but is sleeping with a maid.
She is in such trouble. Which woman in the world is willing to share a man with another woman? Are you going to imitate the old lady? Aren't you afraid of the consequences?"
The old lady of the Su family also gave birth to two daughters in succession. Later, she was not pregnant for many years. She was afraid that Mr. Su would go out and make trouble, so she made her personal maid his concubine. The personal maid also took advantage of her two younger sisters who had not left the court.
After entering the Su Mansion and being sent to Mr. Su's bed, there was a lot of chaos among women vying for favor. Mrs. Su almost lost her life. The three sisters were also exiled to a foreign land, and they didn't know whether they would live or die.
One of these three women was Su Li's mother-in-law. Xu Xiuyi thought that she should have learned a lesson from the previous generation.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Su Li said: "That's different. My cousin's birth is not good-looking, so I just want her belly to give my husband a son. What's more, she is my cousin, and her mother's family still has ceremonial guards.
My father takes care of me and doesn’t dare to do anything to me.”
Xu Xiuyi had a big headache: "If I don't say anything else, I just want to ask you, sister-in-law, how can you stand my brother lying in the arms of another woman?"
Su Lishi paused and replied as if she had made up her mind: "I can bear it, I just want to renew your eldest brother's reputation. I can't care about so much else. Xiu Yi, as long as you want to help me, I will speak.
, your eldest brother may not be willing to make the decision, and your eldest brother won't say anything."
"I don't!" Xu Xiu recalled firmly.
She is crazy, doing something that she hates so much.
Su Li didn't expect Xu Xiuyi to refuse so simply. She was a little disappointed, but she thought that Xu Xiuyi was afraid that she would suffer in the future. She had no resentment towards Xu Xiuyi's refusal, and just said: "I know you think about me, hey
, that’s all, I’m also afraid that your eldest brother will be unhappy, otherwise I will take my cousin over to live with her for a few days and see if there is any chance of success, Xiu Yi, as the head of the family, you will take a concubine for your eldest brother. If there is no chance of success, I won’t force it.
, this thing of fate may be predetermined."
Xu Xiuyi really had nothing to say to her because she was acting so nonsense. In terms of marriage concepts, she and Su Li were completely different from each other.
Su Li can do whatever she wants. If someone brings her cousin to stay for a few days, she can still drive them away.
