Chapter 5: The Lady
Li Xi laughed when she heard this, and in order to prevent Wan'er from becoming angry, she quickly retracted her hand, twisted her two fingers together, and recalled the stiffness of her little buttocks, but said in her mouth: "Only this once, not for example!" β
He said, "Otherwise, let's go in now, and you and Lan'er will have a good chat later." Although you are old acquaintances, but now you are both women of the same husband, you are the eldest woman, she is a concubine, in terms of rules, she should naturally serve you tea! β
Liu Wan'er smiled when she heard this, "Don't you, people...... hasn't married yet, so let's call her Sister Wu. β
Li Xi thought about it, then nodded, "That's fine, you're an eldest woman, Shi En may be better than Shi Wei!" β
This sentence made Liu Wan'er infinitely shy, but she was reluctant to resist, so she just twisted her body back and forth in Li Xi's arms, and after a few times, Li Xi became angry, and said in her heart that this little girl was really hungry for death.
felt that if he continued like this, he was likely to make mistakes again, and in the current situation, he could only please Wan'er and it was inconvenient to make inches, so Li Xi forced himself to suppress the beautiful thoughts in his heart, and only leaned over and said to Liu Wan'er: "Or, let's go in?" β
"Well, go in."
Liu Wan'er nodded in her arms and agreed, but she agreed, but she didn't move for a long time.
It's not difficult to understand when you think about it, in the past few months, Li Xi has been either busy doing business or being an official, but she really can't be idle, although she hasn't stopped going to Liufu, but after all, she Liu Wan'er is everyone's best girl, and she can't compare with those ordinary girls, even if she is not shy, she still has a father and a mother to watch, it's not good to be too disrespectful.
Therefore, although Li Xi often goes, she never has many opportunities to see him, and even if she does, she can only watch from a distance, but she can't say something considerate. Li Xi often tried to sneak into the backyard to meet her, but she only added it three or four times, and most of them dispersed in a hurry.
She is now in love with the deep love, these several times to meet, how can they comfort the girl's strong lovesickness? At this time, I finally ran out with the protection of my two elder brothers, and even my father acquiesced, and I met him above, where was I willing to let go easily?
At this time, Li Xi was reluctant to interrupt her when he saw her attachment, but just hugged her tighter, and saw from a distance that two maids seemed to be coming over, and they also waved their hands at them, not allowing them to come.
"Wan'er, do you want to be a bad person?"
"Well, kind of like that."
"Just a little bit of a thought? Don't really want to think about it? β
"Hee...... Xianggong just has to make people blush, okay, I want to think very much, but I can't see you! β
"Soon, it won't be long before you can see Xianggong every day."
"Hmm. That day, A-Niang was ashamed of others, saying that she could be distracted by eating, and her sister-in-law was also there at the time, so she laughed at them, saying that they had stayed in this family enough, and they were looking forward to marrying out as soon as possible, and they just wanted to marry Xianggong as soon as possible! β
"Oh, you were distracted thinking about getting married when you were eating?"
"Of course not, people are just thinking, last time Xianggong had to stick his tongue into someone's mouth, I thought it was so strange, I almost wanted to take a bite, but fortunately I didn't bite down, but ...... The taste of everyone's tongues tangled together is so weird, I feel numb all over my body, as if I want to fly......"
"Uh...... Wan'er, shall we fly again? β
"Oh no, this is in your house, it will be seen, if it is seen, people will be ashamed to death!"
"Yay...... Didn't you see it last time? I didn't see you die of shame! β
"Xianggong! β¦β¦ You hate it, that's the time, people are embarrassed to talk to Yu'er for a long time......"
"Well, then another day, another day, Xianggong secretly went to your small building, let's drive Yu'er out and fly again, okay?"
"Hmm."
"What do you say? I didn't hear clearly, louder. β
"Well, people say well, they all listen to each other."
β¦β¦β¦β¦ The two of them just hugged like this, chatting casually and casually, and I don't know how long it took, anyway, the sky was gradually getting dark, fortunately no one interrupted, and later, maybe Wan'er had enough of it, or maybe she felt that she was always pulling Li Xi here, and she would give the two brothers a joke when she went back, and finally reached out and gently pushed Li Xi away.
The night is thick, but I can still see the slight flush on her face, compared to the appearance of the little girl pouting when she first came, now she looks ashamed and happy, it is simply greedy.
She smiled sweetly and looked up at Li Xi, pulled his hand, and said, "Okay, people have finished talking about what they have been saving for many days, let's go in." β
Li Xi was stunned, and hit Tianjie and shouted, "I also said that I want to think very much, but I can finish it with only a few words?" β
Liu Wan'er smiled shyly and shook his hand, "Okay, there are some things that people only dare to think about but dare not say!" Let's go, let's go and see your concubine! β
Li Xi was staggered to the back house by her hand, not a few steps, the little girl had suddenly let go of her hand, when Li Xi looked up, he saw that there were two maids in front of him who were walking over, thinking that the maid was frightened, so he hurriedly let go.
When the two maids saw Li Xi, they stood on the side of the road to greet him, Li Xi nodded and walked over, and the two maids walked away, and when they turned their heads to look, Wan'er had already avoided eight zhang away, looking east and west, looking panicked.
Li Xi couldn't help laughing, seeing that the two maids were walking away, she was finally willing to lean over again, so she laughed at her, "You are still a big woman, why are you so afraid of seeing people." β
Liu Wan'er didn't feel any difference at all, just smiled shyly, bit her lip, and then whispered: "Xianggong, don't forget to hurry up and get hired, people go in first!" β
After finishing speaking, she didn't look at Li Xi anymore, and went straight inside like a deer.
Graceful posture and light steps...... The girl had forgotten that she was dressed as a man at this time.
Li Xi smiled, a little complacent, and a little ambitious, looked up to see that the moon had risen in the east, so he straightened out the front placket that had been crumpled for Wan'er just now, and walked slowly inside.
"Sister Wu, you are so beautiful today. "This is Liu Wan'er in Kuawulan.
"Sister Liu is called beautiful, although she is dressed as a man, she is a little more heroic."
Wu Lan was a little embarrassed to praise her, but she still didn't forget to turn around and praise Liu Wan'er, and then, she didn't forget to turn her head and give Li Xi a grateful look.
Just now, someone came to report that it was the three brothers of the Liu family who came, and she immediately panicked in her heart, and when others heard this, they may just be stunned and feel strange, that is, they have a heart, and they have to think about it to understand what the three brothers of the Liu family mean, but she has been in the Liu Mansion for a while, and now she is about to marry Li Xi as a concubine, so this mind is doubly sensitive, so as soon as she heard this, she knew that it was Liu Wan'er who was nine times out of ten.
To be honest, she was a little scared, a little timid, and a little embarrassed.
When she was a singer in Liufu, she had a relationship with the clever eldest lady of the Liu family, and at that time she was a sister, Liu Wan'er gave her some good rouge gouache, some difficult fresh fruits and vegetables, and never forgot to send her some of the maid's hair, and she taught Liu Wan'er some pipa and gonghou techniques, speaking of which, in the past ten years of wandering singer's career, Liu Wan'er is also one of the few good friends she has made.
It's just that who would have thought that in a blink of an eye, that is, in a few months, she no longer has to be a singer and wants to marry someone else as a concubine, and the person she wants to marry is still Liu Wan'er's fiancΓ©...... This, however, will be a little embarrassing. In addition to embarrassment, it is inevitable to have a little timidity in the face of old acquaintances.
If you don't marry a wife, you will take a concubine first. This is originally a matter of incompatibility with etiquette, although in the previous relationship, she also knew that Liu Wan'er probably would not be the kind of spicy woman who could splash her face to make trouble, but it was about her husband, and as far as she knew, Liu Wan'er really loved this husband in her heart, so when she was about to face her, she really didn't have any confidence in her heart.
Seeing that the Liu brothers had already come over, but Li Xi and Liu Wan'er hadn't come over, she knew that Li Xi must have stopped people outside, and she didn't know what kind of water grinding work would be necessary, so she was relieved.
However, after all, she is an eldest woman, even if she has not passed the door, she is also an eldest woman recognized by everyone. Although she comforted herself again and again, Li Xi had gone out to stop people just now, and she must have solved everything, presumably Liu Wan'er would not be making trouble with her own scene, but she still couldn't help but beat her heart when she faced Liu Wan'er's smile in men's clothes.
It wasn't until I heard her smile and congratulate herself, and praised herself for being beautiful today, that this piece of boss's heart fell to the ground.
Turning his head to look at Li Xi, he was talking to Liu Rong, he might not be able to receive this look, but it didn't hinder it, everything was his, and he didn't care about anything, just let him want.
Congratulations from Liu Wan'er, even the eldest woman nodded, her position as the first concubine at the beginning was naturally stabilized immediately, so unconsciously, her mood calmed down, and finally, when Li Zao was waiting for a few guys to coax, she also generously took the tea and walked to Liu Wan'er, and was about to kneel down to give her tea.
This is the first hurdle for the bride to get started, if the eldest woman takes and drinks your tea, then everything is easy to say, at least it is recognized that you are a concubine and accept you as a formal member of the family, if you don't accept your tea, then the future can be imagined - although Liu Wan'er has not been married, but in the eyes of insiders, she has naturally set the position of the eldest woman, and at this time to give her tea, Wu Lan is willing.
It's just that Li Zao and they have to make trouble for Wu Lan to give Liu Wan'er tea, although they have the meaning of watching the excitement, but in fact, it is not for Wu Lan, the most important thing is to make trouble for Liu Wan'er.
At that moment, when Liu Wan'er heard Li Zao shouting to let Wu Lan give her tea, she was already flushed with shame, and when Wu Lan really stood up, she was so ashamed that she couldn't help but raise her feet and wanted to run out. How can Li be Li Xi's younger brother, that is to say, he will marry in the future, this is the little uncle, and although he is a little embarrassed to make such a fuss, it is also a child's family is so lively, but there is no evil intention, and he is really annoyed.
Wu Lan walked up to her with a tea cup in her hand, and said, "Sister Liu, little sister, please serve tea." Seeing that Yingying was about to bow down, Liu Wan'er was anxious and ashamed, almost didn't cry, in front of so many people, although she was dressed as a scholar, but she also had nowhere to hide, and she hurriedly grabbed Wu Lan at the moment, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or ashamed in her tone, but said: "Sister Wu, you are very happy today, why do you follow me too, and if you make trouble, I can go!" β
Wu Lan smiled, but she didn't insist on kneeling, but she sent the tea cup to her and said, "Then, please invite Sister Liu to drink this tea." β
Wu Lan shouted for a while and her sister for a while, Liu Wan'er didn't care, when she was in the scene, she was the eldest woman, naturally she was the sister, but in private, she was older than herself, not to mention that she used to call her sister when she was in her own home, and it was naturally not inappropriate to call her so at this time.
It's just that when she reluctantly took the teacup in her hand, under the gaze of the guests and maids in the room, she was really ashamed to cover her face with her hand and never see anyone again, but seeing that Wu Lan's eyes were earnest, Li Xi's chubby younger brother's name was Ah Zao, and she was still coaxing, and she finally had to close her eyes, cover her face with a sleeve, and take a shallow sip.
This mouthful, the whole hall applauded.
Liu Wan'er was so ashamed that she wanted to drip, but her face was redder than the red candle.
Liu Rong turned his head to look at Li Xi, who was sitting on the side with a smirk on his face, and couldn't help but praise, "Okay, you kid, good means!" β
Hearing this, Li Xi turned his head and arched his hand in a similar manner, "See the smile, see the smile, and admit it." β
The night is dark, and the leakage is even more broken.
Because it was just a concubine, and it was a secret concubine, there were not many guests called, only a handful, except for family members such as Li Wei and Li Qiu, that is, the three brothers and sisters of the Liu family, the old man Li Yifeng went to Chang'an, Li Xi originally intended to invite his little lady from Xinnai to come over and have a glass of wine, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
Although there were few people, the banquet was extraordinarily jubilant. Especially before the banquet just now, Ah Zao asked Wulan, the little sister-in-law, to give tea to Liu Wan'er, the sister-in-law who had never passed the door, and in the end, although Liu Wan'er was ashamed, she still drank Wulan's bridal tea, which made the atmosphere of the scene warm all of a sudden.
When the night was dark, not to mention the two brothers Liu Lan and Liu Rong, it was the little fat man Li Zaolai, who claimed that he was not drunk with a thousand cups, but he was already drunk, and in the end, he simply threw the wine glass and fell asleep directly, which caused the people waiting next to him to laugh. Only the two brothers, Li Wei and Li Qiu, because they were elders, didn't dare to drink too much considering that they had to put away the last field, so until the end, it was the two of them who successively sent the Liu family brothers and others who were already drunk to the carriage.
And Liu Wan'er sat with Li Wei and Li Qiu's wife in the back, accompanied by Wu Lan, the bride, to eat the wedding wine, although she repeatedly refused to drink, how could she be that today, the prospective daughter-in-law who has not yet passed the door, has greatly robbed Wu Lan's bride of the limelight, and although the two aunts on the wine table are solemn, they can't help but make trouble with Liu Wan'er's wine again and again, and in the end they are forced to eat a few glasses, and their faces are red and they bring wine.
Speaking of which, the eldest girl who had never married went to her fiancΓ©'s concubine banquet to eat the wedding wine, Liu Wan'er did something she had never done, so when she went back, she was relieved to see that the two brothers were drunk, thinking that fortunately the second brother was drunk, otherwise she would not know what to joke about him on the way back.
As the night deepened, after sending the guests away, Li Xuan and Li Qiu also left with their families one after another. Li Xi was so drunk that he couldn't recognize where it was, he just grabbed a person and held him indiscriminately, muttering in his mouth, and he didn't know what he was shouting, and at the moment, before Zhao Laoan commanded the people to clean up, two mothers-in-law had already come to pick up Li Xi, and dragged him to Wulan's room in the cave along the way.
Entering the cave room, Wu Lan served him and drank a bowl of decanting soup that the mother-in-law had prepared for a long time, while accompanying Li Xi to gossip without a word, and at the same time ordered someone to boil water, and set up the bath soup as before, and then wanted to dress Li Xi widely, but unfortunately at this time Li Xi was already half-asleep because of drinking too much, and in desperation, she had to beckon two little maids to come in, and then took off the clothes on Li Xi's body, and the three of them put him in the bath soup half-hugged and half-lifted.
After doing this, Wu Lan was already tired and panting, and waved her hand to send the two little maids away, she thought about it, but said: "You go to the room next to the master's study, if Miss Ah Jin hasn't slept yet, invite her over, and say that I have something to say to her." β
When the two little maids heard this, they agreed and turned around.
Here Wu Lan took a short rest, then took a linen cloth and prepared to scrub Li Xi's body, just watching him sit in the bathtub and tilt his head and snore, but he couldn't help laughing to himself.
I thought, is this my cave room candle night?
What if he doesn't wake up overnight?
