Chapter 224: A Trip to the Far Door
Xiao Sa looked at the gorgeous red lips that were pouting as if inviting herself, smiled and kissed Shen Muqing's face. γLatest chapter reading. (Hand hitting)
"Hmm......" Shen Muqing didn't expect to be suffocated by his kiss, and struggled with his hands on his chest.
Xiao Sa loosened his arm and continued his siege and land...... It wasn't until Shen Mu was softly attached to him that he said in a deep breath: "When did I talk nonsense?" The eighth brother is five months younger than me, and the eldest son is six years old......" The tone was very yearning.
From Shen Muqing's point of view, they are still very young, but compared with people of the same age, the two of them are already old - Xiao Sa's mood, she can understand it very well. But understanding is understanding, Shen Muqing is still a little uneasy in his heart. If the son is okay, if it is the daughter...... Society will be very harsh on her.
She feels heartache when she thinks about it now, not to mention that the child is growing up in front of her eyes, and the relationship is deepening day by day!
Shen Muqing grabbed Xiao Sa's shirt and rested his head on his chest.
Xiao Sa looked at the watery green silk in his arms, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly-he thought Shen Muqing was shy!
"Do you want to do something?" He asked Shen Muqing softly.
Shen Muqing raised his head, thinking of Xiao Sa's enthusiasm just now, and thinking of the inconvenience on his body, his eyes were a little guarded: "What's the matter?" β
Xiao Sa couldn't help but laugh: "It's not strange to have many people. I would like to write the gift list myself. β
"Good!" Shen Muqing replied a little weakly, "I'll help you sharpen the ink." As he spoke, he jumped down from Xiao Sa's lap, picked up the grinding ingot, and sharpened it on the inkstone where the ink had not dried.
Xiao Sa cut the red gold paper and began to sit down to write the gift list.
The two of them were busy until the beginning of Hai Chu had not finished writing, and Xiao Sa asked Shen Muqing to sleep first: "...... You are not in good health, so you can't stay up late. β
Shen Muqing didn't want to leave Xiao Sa alone in the study, so he pulled his sleeve: "You also go to restβwe are already late, and the Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony is just to show our hearts, so we are not in a hurry at this time." β
Xiao Sa smiled and patted her hand: "It's always better to be delivered a day earlier...... What's more, early tomorrow morning, Mr. Peng asked me to go to Yazhou Mansion to see the shop. β
"Then I'll accompany you." Shen Muqing smiled and continued to sharpen the ink, "If someone helps, it's faster." β
"No!" Xiao Sa smiled, "You just call a little maid to come in." β
"Red sleeves?" Shen Muqing smiled, "It's okay, I'll call you a pretty little girl." As he spoke, he got up and was about to call someone.
Xiao Sa hurriedly stood up and pulled Shen Muqing, and saw that her eyes were full of teasing, so he smiled and pinched her cheek: "I really didn't see it, it's a big vinegar tank." β
Shen Muqing frolicked with him, and crossed his waist to make a shrew: "What if it's a big vinegar tank?" β
Xiao Sa laughed and leaned over to make a deep sniff: "Then I'll take a sip." As he spoke, he gently bit Shen Muqing's shoulder.
Shen Muqing slapped Xiao Sa's head: "Go and write a gift listβthere are still a bunch of things to do tomorrow!" With that, he turned and walked out.
Xiao Sa hurriedly took her hand: "Where are you going?" β
The tone was very eager, which surprised Shen Muqing: "What's wrong?" β
Xiao Sa looked at her silently, but her eyes were a little gloomy: "Mu Qing, don't worry, I won't go to the little maid...... The two of us are together forever! β
Why do you say such things?
Shen Muqing reflected on his attitude, couldn't help sighing, and stepped forward to hug Xiao Sa: "I wasn't testing you just now...... Are you kidding? β
Xiao Sa looked at her with some confusion.
Shen Muqing couldn't help blushing: "I went out to see that you are almost busy with this matter, and I will pack up your clothes for Ya'an Mansion!" β
"Just let Mingxia help clean up." Xiao Sa hugged Shen Muqing and didn't let go, "You are here to accompany me." β
Shen Muqing smiled and looked up at Xiao Sa: "Didn't you just say that you should go back and rest early?" Why did you change the hexagram after a while? β
Xiao Sa was a little dumbfounded: "It's fun for us to do things together!" β
"It's late tonight!" Shen Muqing's voice was as soft as a spring breeze in March, "You have to rush to Ya'an Mansion early tomorrow morning." Next time, when you are not in such a hurry, I will accompany you to do things. β
******
Early the next morning, Shen Muqing was sleeping in a daze, and felt the sound of rustling cloth rubbing around him......
She opened her eyes sleepily, and saw Xiao Sa getting up in her clothes.
Shen Muqing sat up with a spirit: "What time?" Are you leaving for Ya'an? β
Xiao Sa looked back and saw his wife's panicked expression, and sat on the edge of the bed with a smile: "It's still early." You go to sleep first - I'll take a look at the gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival. β
Because the day of the festival gift is very tight, Xiao Sa simply called the Pang steward to come in after writing the gift list last night, and asked him to load things overnight, and went to Ya'an Mansion with him today, and then took Rongcheng from Ya'an Mansion, and borrowed the Zheng family's boat in Rongcheng to distribute the gifts everywhere. As for Shen Zhen, Mr. Min and others in Kyoto, they were sent by Steward Pang himself.
"Get up too!" Shen Muqing got up and put on his clothes, "You are going with Master Peng, and the itinerary has to follow him." I'll have to prepare some for you to eat and drinkβyesterday I told Laurel to get up early and make you some shortbread, steamed cakes, and the like......"
"You slept too late yesterday," Xiao Sa pressed Shen Muqing to prevent her from getting up, "Just let Ning Bi carry the things." β
Shen Muqing still struggled to sit up: "I'll send you away!" β
Xiao Sa stopped her again: "...... There are no elders in the family, so you don't have to work so hard. β
"It's not hard work, I want to send you!" Shen Muqing hugged Xiao Sa, "It's going to be three days!" β
Xiao Sa was a little grateful, and said with a smile: "I'll try to come back early." β
Shen Muqing nodded, got up and dressed.
Xiao Sa went to see the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts for relatives and friends, Shen Muqing packed up the clothes and food that Xiao Sa brought to Ya'an, the two met in the flower hall in the inner courtyard, had breakfast together, and Shen Muqing sent Xiao Sa out.
ββ¦β¦ If you're bored, go out for a walk β Shanghai is no bigger than Kyoto, and there aren't as many rules. Xiao Sa instructed Shen Muqing, "Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Fang often go out to play together. Just remember to bring the nursing home. β
"You can go to Ya'an with confidence!" Shen Muqing nodded and smiled, "I have to make winter clothes for you, how can I have time to go out and visit the door!" β
"Ask someone from the needlework to do it!" Xiao Sa smiled, "There are too few people at home. β
"I'll take Mingxia and them to do it, very quickly. You don't have to worry about it. If I can't keep up, I'll ask someone to help. β
Xiao Sa nodded, looking at her with infinite nostalgia: "You are alone, you have to be careful in everything!" "It's like it's going to be a long walk.
Shen Muqing couldn't help laughing.
******
Since the Yaowang Temple incident, Shen Muqing has become much more cautious in his actions. So after Xiao Sa left, Shen Muqing didn't go anywhere, and took Mingxia and Ning Bi to do needlework at home - she didn't believe that there was any skilled needlework team in Huding. Xiao Sa can't dress too arrogantly now because of her identity, so she must at least ensure that the needlework is outstanding, right?
Fortunately, the weather in Huding is still very hot, Mingxia and Ning Bi's craftsmanship is very good, and after a day's work, the clothes, shoes and socks that should be made are cut out. The next day, from early in the morning, the three of them sat in the hall and sewed.
At noon, Mrs. Fang came.
Shen Muqing dropped the needle and welcomed Mrs. Fang to the flower hall.
The maid served tea and snacks, and Mrs. Fang smiled: "Xiao Ye is not at home, why don't you come to me to walk around - what are you doing at home every day?" β
"I look forward to going to your house every day." Shen Muqing hurriedly smiled, "I'm really busy making winter clothes for my master...... My hands and feet are slow, only the stupid bird flies first! β
Mrs. Fang laughed: "You are from a high family, and you are from Kyoto, I don't know how many rare things you have seen, and you can't be humble with me!" β
"It's not modesty." Shen Muqing said with a smile, "When I was in my mother's house, my mother was very used to it, and she didn't read well, and she didn't learn cooking well...... Now that I am living by myself, I have to bring a personal maid to do some clumsy work. β
Mrs. Fang was a little convinced when she heard this, and said with a smile: "The Xiao family was born in Lincheng, Shanxi, why didn't they invite someone from the needlework team to do it?" β
"Xiang Gong said the same thing," Shen Muqing said with a smile, "I can't get an inch, and I really hand over all his close-fitting clothes to the needlework team." β
Mrs. Fang agreed, bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "How are the clothes done?" β
"It was only cut yesterday," Shen Muqing said with a smile, "I was sewing it today...... Shoes and socks haven't been made yet. β
"We all make clothes here," Mrs. Fang asked with some curiosity, "I heard that the clothes of Kyoto men have a new look every few years, and I haven't seen ...... them" said, looking at Shen Muqing with longing in his eyes, meaning that he wanted to take a look.
Shen Muqing thought that he would have to intersect with Mrs. Fang and others in the future, which was indispensable for you to come and go...... But he didn't want to behave too casually, so he pondered for a while before standing up with a smile and said, "If Madame doesn't dislike it, come to me and see if you can see the style of clothes I have cut for the prime minister this year?" β
Mrs. Fang's face was full of joy when she heard this, and she went to the main house with Shen Muqing, and said, "...... The master of our family often comes back to talk to me about Xiao Ye, and he is full of envy...... Once, Xiao Ye wore a bamboo hairpin, and he came back and talked for a long time. What you say about Kyoto is different, even the bamboo hairpin is different......"
Shen Muqing broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this.
She thought of the bamboo hairpin that Xiao Sa wanted to give her at the beginning - Xiao Sa had said at that time that it was an antiquity from the previous dynasty...... This room is too good at seeing things!
"Xianggong has several bamboo hairpins," Shen Muqing replied, "I don't know which one Lord Fang has a fancy?" Otherwise, I'll ask someone to go to Kyoto and buy one and come back! β
Mrs. Fang shook her hand again and again: "Mrs. Xiao, don't misunderstand...... Our master is five big and three coarse, and he is rude, even if he wears a golden hairpin, others will suspect that it is gilded, but unlike Xiao Ye, who wears coarse cloth and is magnificent! β
"Madame complimented you!" Shen Muqing said with a smile, "Lord Fang, that is a bold temperament......"
The two of them said and entered the main house.
