The following days were uneventful.
Minister Cen was neglected by the emperor for a period of time. On the contrary, the Liang family continued to reward him during this period. The emperor even specially gave Liang Yuyu a jade ruyi.
People in the capital were changing their attitudes according to the situation. Seeing that the Liang family was gaining popularity, people came to visit Shen Yuexi and Liang Ruida every day for various reasons.
Shen Yuexi was so annoyed that she only dealt with him for a few days before she used the excuse of having a headache and stopped seeing guests.
Liang Ruida, on the other hand, was extremely busy all day long. He was either attending banquets at one house or being invited to be a guest at another house. For a while, he was very popular.
That night, after washing up, Shen Yuexi carried Liang Yuyu to bed to rest.
She held Liang Yuyu in one hand, and gently patted Liang Yuyu's soft and chubby body with her warm palm, muttering to herself: "The Lantern Festival will be here in a few days. Then mother will take you to the street to buy two pieces of silk and make you a new dress."
Liang Yuyu smacked her lips, placed her right hand in front of her, and bent her fingers downwards one by one, counting the days in her mind.
Every year on September 16th, the capital's Lantern Festival is celebrated. Women who used to stay indoors would go out to the streets to do some shopping.
[It's been a while since my scumbag dad came here.]
【No! 】
Liang Yuyu suddenly thought of something.
Her dark pupils dilated instantly, she pursed her lips slightly, smacked her lips twice, and looked hurriedly at Shen Yuexi.
[The scumbag dad had a new affair outside. ]
Liang Yuyu remembered a plot in the novel where Liang Ruida had an affair with a prostitute, which later caused a lot of romantic scandals. As a result, Minister Cen caught hold of the evidence and severely reported him.
Calculating the time, it is around the Lantern Festival.
However, her appearance seemed to have changed the fate of the Liang family, and she didn't know whether this plot would continue to happen.
When Shen Yuexi heard Liang Yuyu's inner thoughts, she drooped her eyelids slightly, and a trace of sadness that was hardly noticeable flashed in her eyes.
She pulled the corner of the quilt, tugged it upwards a few times, and covered herself and Liang Yuyu in the quilt together. She seemed to be talking to Liang Yuyu, but also seemed to be talking to herself: "Mother just wants to see you grow up safely now. As for other things, let him go."
【Mei Niang, you can't think like that. 】
If his affair with his scumbag dad was just about sleeping with someone, it would be fine, but he's too stupid to mess with women he shouldn't mess with.
[This way, he's happy, but we, mother and daughter, are the ones who suffer.]
Shen Yuexi had already closed her eyes and was about to go to sleep, but suddenly she sat up, threw back the quilt, and shouted outside: "Liu Qiu, is the master back?"
Liu Qiu pushed the door open and walked in quickly. She came to the bedside, lifted the curtain, and carefully poked her head in: "Madam, the master has been out for banquets these few days, and it will be almost midnight when he returns."
The veins on Shen Yuexi's forehead throbbed a few times, and he sneered, "What banquet? I think you're going to sleep with prostitutes again."
While he was talking, Shen Yuexi had already stood up, changed her clothes, picked up Liang Yuyu, told Liu Qiu to prepare the carriage, and took a few servants with her, and rushed out of the mansion.
This was the first time Liang Yuyu went out of the house late at night.
I thought it would be quiet everywhere, but unexpectedly the main street was very lively.
There was singing every three steps and storytelling every five steps. It was even more lively than the capital city during the day.
The Liang Mansion's carriage passed through the bustling main street, drove along a dark alley for a long time, and finally stopped in a relatively quiet place.
Liang Yuyu poked her head out of the cradle, her round eyes moving around as she looked around carefully.
This place is quieter than the main street, and the whole street is hung with big red lanterns.
There were two or three scantily clad women standing at the door of each store, with sweet smiles on their faces, waving handkerchiefs to attract passing men.
[Is this the legendary brothel? ]
Liang Yuyu stretched her neck and looked around curiously.
In such a cold day, some of the women showed off their large white chests, and some showed off their slender legs, which made people blush.
Liang Yuyu was a baby still in swaddling clothes, but she couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster.
[Although I know this profession is not very legitimate, but they are really beautiful.]
Liang Yuyu waved her little paws in the air a few times, trying hard to see clearly.
The two women couldn't help laughing when they saw Liang Yuyu's breasts were full.
"Why are there still people bringing babies here?"
"Could it be that some rich lady came to catch an adulterer?"
Shen Yuexi cast a glare at the two women.
The two of them immediately lowered their voices, turned their heads and looked in other directions.
Shen Yuexi pulled the small quilt up to cover Liang Yuyu's face and whispered, "My dear, this is not the place for you to look."
Liang Yuyu's vision was blocked, so she bit her pink lips and made two puffs of sound in protest.
[It's such a waste for such a beautiful sister to be looked at by men. ]
[Please, Mei Niang, let me take a look. Just a glance is not enough? ]
Shen Yuexi remained unmoved.
She walked a short distance along the street holding Liang Yuyu in her arms before stopping in front of a store with three red lights on the door.
The woman at the door immediately came forward and asked with a smile, "What is this lady doing here? This is not a place for ladies."
Shen Yuexi raised her eyebrows slightly, turned her head away indifferently, a cold look flashed in her dark pupils, and she asked in a cold voice: "Where is the man surnamed Liang?"
The woman's smile froze instantly, and the corners of her mouth twitched violently.
After a few seconds of silence, she quickly turned around and asked, "Who are you talking about, Madam? There's no one with the surname Liang here."
Shen Yuexi snorted coldly, raised her hand and pushed the woman away: "If you don't tell me, I'll find it myself."
The woman wanted to resist, but Shen Yuexi waved her hand and several servants behind her came forward and immediately held the woman down.
