"Sir, please try the crispy cake that Liniang just made." Shen Liniang entered the study at some point, walked to Li Kuo's side, and placed a plate of desserts on the table.
"Ah, it's Liniang." Li Kuo was freed from his thoughts, looked at the beauty in front of him, and smiled slightly.
In the past month, I had hinted to Shen Liniang several times about her stay, but Liniang didn't seem to understand the meaning and didn't make any reply.
"Liniang saw that the light in the young master's study was still on, so she thought that you had not gone to bed yet, so she made this dessert for the young master to have as a snack." Shen Liniang bowed with great tenderness.
"Oh, there's Lao Li Niang." Li Kuo nodded lightly as a thank you.
"Young Master, are you reading the Art of War?" Shen Liniang glanced at the "The Art of War of the Duke" that was being read on the desk, and said slowly.
"Just looking at it, I'm really hungry when you say that." He picked up a piece of cheese and put it into his mouth. Li Kuo felt a burst of sweetness on the tip of his tongue, and then spread out, which made him feel refreshed. Refreshing.
"Liniang, what did you add to this cheese? Why is it so sweet?"
Li Kuo never thought that Shen Liniang could make such a delicious dessert and praised it.
"Master, Liniang mixed the flour with sophora japonica and osmanthus, and added sucrose, so the master feels the fragrance is refreshing." Shen Liniang nodded slightly to Li Kuo, and her harmonious whisper was the most emotional.
"No wonder, my A Tian can't make pastries like this."
Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Li Kuo picked up another piece of cheese and put it into his mouth.
"If you like it, Master, Liniang will cook it for you every night from now on." Shen Liniang was overjoyed when she heard this and said sweetly.
"Oh, that's not necessary. Liniang, there is something I have always wanted to tell you, but I couldn't find the chance. Since you are here today, I..."
Li Kuo swallowed the cheese in his mouth and smiled at Shen Liniang.
"Young Master!" Shen Liniang took out her scarf and put it over Li Kuo's mouth, her eyes twitching wildly: "Young Master, please think carefully before speaking."
Gently pushing his hands away, Li Kuo sighed: "Ever since I bought this house, Liniang, you have been living here temporarily. I originally thought that after some time, you would be free from the limelight and you could find a new home. A good family. Ke Liniang, you..."
"Young Master, don't say any more! Liniang really has nowhere to go now. Ever since she was bought by Wu Canjun, she has been locked in a deep house with no contact with the outside world. Isn't it right that Young Master wants to drive Liniang away? Are you forcing me to die? Moreover, Liniang is not a person who knows how to repay kindness. The young master saved Liniang and was Liniang’s great benefactor. Liniang has no way to repay her, but she can only promise her with her body... "
Speaking of this, Shen Liniang's voice had a hint of crying, and it was quite touching that the beauty shed tears.
"Liniang, I don't want to drive you away, but it's just that having a daughter like you in my house may not be good for your reputation." Li Kuo sighed and comforted her.
"Oh, it turns out that Young Master is looking down on my background. That's it, that's it..." Shen Liniang obviously misunderstood Li Kuo's meaning, and she laughed angrily: "Young Master, although Liniang is a prostitute, she is also a promiscuous woman. He knew the word chastity. Although he could not say that he was untainted in the mud, he was as guarded as jade. He was a famous pure husband in Beili. Later, although he was redeemed by Wu Canjun and bought into the house as a concubine, Wu Canjun bought him My concubine is bedridden and cannot do that...that thing between men and women. Therefore, Liniang is still a virgin...a virgin."
At the end of the sentence, Shen Liniang's voice was weak. Feeling slighted, Liniang buried her head in her arms and sobbed faintly.
"Hey, Liniang, I don't dislike your background, it's just..." Li Kuo sighed and said, "It's just that I already have a woman in my heart, and I'm afraid I will let down Liniang's kindness."
Hearing this, Shen Liniang raised her head and said, "The person in your heart is Miss A Tian?"
Li Kuo was surprised by her revelation and wondered: "How did Liniang know?"
Shen Liniang wiped the tears from her eyes and said: "We are all women, how could we not see it? I heard from Young Master Yanji that your family was poor when you were young, and Miss A Tian came to the Young Master's house to dress and cook all day long. I also help take care of my aunt, you have seen all this. As the saying goes, childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, have been in love for a long time. The man is affectionate and the concubine is interested, so it is naturally a good thing."
"Since Liniang already knows, don't force it."
"What's this? Young Master doesn't need to be embarrassed, Liniang is willing to be a child!" Shen Liniang calmed down and said word by word. "Given the current status of Young Master, it is normal for him to have several concubines. Besides, Even if the young master does not think about himself, he should think about the old lady. The young master is leading the army, how can he not have one or two people to take care of him? Miss A Tian has become the main wife, and according to the court regulations, she must stay in the capital. If the young master has no one by his side Zhaofu, how worried the old lady must be."
"this..."
"Young master, there is no need to hesitate. If you don't save me, Liniang will definitely be sold to the fireworks place by the black-hearted Master Wu. Liniang was ready to die to prove her ambition, but it was the master who saved Liniang. Liniang felt that the young master was benevolent and righteous." , I am willing to dedicate myself to repay the young master’s great kindness.”
Shen Liniang didn't give Li Kuo a chance to speak at all, she knelt on the ground and gritted her teeth.
"Liniang, you, you..." Li Kuo never thought that things would turn out like this. He felt helpless. "Get up first. Let's discuss this matter slowly."
"No, if the young master doesn't agree to Liniang's promise, Liniang will keep kneeling." Shen Liniang bit her lips and said cruelly.
"Hey, what are you doing, what are you doing!"
Li Kuo felt depressed in his heart and kept pacing in the room. He thought for a long time and sighed: "Okay, I promise you for the time being, but you don't talk about it everywhere. If you regret it, you can leave at any time. I will never Forced to stay!”
Shen Liniang was overjoyed to win the young man's approval. She stood up and gave him a generous gift: "Thank you for your mercy, sir!"
"You!" Li Kuo waved his hand helplessly, smiling bitterly.
Behind a stone not far from the house, Du Jingtian was so angry that she could have rushed into the house if Zhang Yanji hadn't been holding her sleeve.
"Don't hold me, don't hold me, I'm going to rush in and chop down that heartless guy Li Xiaoqi." Du Jingtian waved his fist and cursed.
"Hey, my aunt, could you please lower your voice? Your voice is so loud that Brother Kuo'er and Liniang should hear it soon." Zhang Yanji hurriedly covered Du Jingtian's mouth, I begged again and again.
"Woo... let go of me... Wu, I just want him to hear... Wu Wu"
"Ah!" Zhang Yanji let out a scream and subconsciously pulled his palm away from Du Jingtian's mouth.
"I said, aunt, if you have something to say, why are you biting?"
"If you don't let go of me, how can I say it properly? I see, you and that damn Seven Buns are in the same group, just to make me angry! None of you men are good!" Miss Du felt a sense of grievance, and Zhang Yanji also suffered a lot.
"It's unjust, I'm unjust. If I hadn't brought you here, aunt, you would still be in the dark. It's unjust, it's completely unjust."
"It must be that Liniang who seduced Xiao Qi, this bitch."
"Yes, yes, it must be Brother Kuo who he seduced. I don't think she is a good person..."
"Ouch!" Zhang Yanji felt a sharp pain in his left foot. He lowered his head and saw that one of Miss Du's heavenly feet was stepping hard on his foot.
"I said, grandma, why don't you just bite people, but also step on them? I, what did I say wrong? My life is miserable..."
Zhang Yanji's mouth turned into a bitter smile, and he regretted bringing the girl here.
"I want to ask him why he betrayed me!"
Du Jingtian became angrier as she thought about it, and finally ran to the study.
"Hey, my aunt! Brother Kuo'er, I'm sorry for you, you... just wish yourself well..." Zhang Xiaolang sighed as he rubbed his feet.
Li Kuo was chatting with Shen Liniang when suddenly the door was pushed open with a bang. Du Jingtian stared at the young man with tears on his face and said bitterly: "Damn Xiao Qi, damn Qi Bao Zi, damn Xiao Qi who deserves to be made into an omelette, you He’s just a playboy!”
Li Kuo was stunned for a moment and twitched the corner of his mouth: "A Tian, aren't you asleep? Why..."
"Yeah, I went to bed, so you could chat with this vixen; I went to bed, so you could have a private meeting with this vixen. I asked you why you look like you have lost your soul these days. It turns out I’m thinking about this vixen!”
Du Jingtian pointed at Li Kuo and shouted, tears welling up in frustration.
"Miss A Tian, things are not as you imagine. Young master and I..."
Shen Liniang couldn't bear to see Li Kuo being misunderstood, so she walked over and explained in a low voice.
"ah!"
Shen Liniang looked at Du Jingtian in surprise, touched the hot skin on her left cheek, and sobbed softly.
"A Tian, stop!" Li Kuo grabbed Du Jingtian's hand and scolded: "What are you doing?"
"You yelled at me, damn Qibaozi, you actually yelled at me? You have become a Shule military envoy and you don't need me anymore, so you yell at me? You don't like me anymore, don't you? You hate me, don't you? Go and chat with your beautiful lady, charming lady, or fake lady, and never want to see me again!"
Du Jingtian struggled to throw away Li Kuo's hand, covered her face with her right arm and ran out.
"Auntie, where are you going?" Zhang Yanji saw Du Jingtian rushing over and hurriedly stepped forward to meet him.
"Ah! Why are you still beating people?"
Being beaten up by Miss Du for the third time in one night, Zhang Yanji was so miserable that he couldn't express his pain.
"Stinky men, a bunch of bastards, bastards who deserve to be made into omelette, stinky men. Stinky men..."
