Chapter 73
Wang Shuhuai had official business to attend to, so he left the table early and returned to the west room to look at documents.
Sister Ke loves to be in the crowd, so Xie Yunchu waited with her until the crowd dispersed before taking her back to Chunjing Hall. As soon as they entered the door, Nanny Lin smelled alcohol on her.
"What did you drink, girl? Go wash up quickly."
"What can I drink but a sip of green plum wine?"
Xie Yunchu went to the bathroom lazily.
The wet nurse came over and wanted to take the child to sleep, but Ke Jie refused and subconsciously went to the west room to see her father.
The little person poked half of his head out from behind the bead curtain.
Seeing that Wang Shuhuai had a serious expression on his face and was writing meticulously, Nanny Lin told Sister Ke not to disturb him no matter what, and took the child to the bathroom to take a bath.
Xie Yunchu was taking a bath in the tub when he heard the people next door making a lot of noise as if they hadn't entered the water. He couldn't help laughing. Sister Ke was getting more and more naughty as she grew older. Nanny Lin and the wet nurse were exhausted by her.
Later, Xie Yunchu couldn't listen any more, and wrapped in a wet cloak, he glared at the next room. Then Sister Ke became obedient. After she wrung her hair dry and was about to go see the child, Nanny Lin on the other end told her with a smile, "Finally, we coaxed the little ancestor to sleep."
Xie Yunchu went to see the younger one again. Brother Wei was much more obedient than Sister Ke. He almost just ate and slept, and slept alternately. He seldom cried or made a fuss, and was very easy to take care of. Xie Yunchu felt very relieved. He yawned and got on the bed.
Her eyes and brows were lazy, and there was a laziness in her bones.
Just thinking that he was tired from entertaining guests today, he didn't care about Wang Shuhuai and went to sleep. He didn't know how long he slept. He heard the sound of water in the bathroom and woke up in a daze. A drop of sweat slid down his forehead. Xie Yunchu touched his forehead and his palms were wet with sweat.
Is it that hot?
It's late autumn now.
Xie Yunchu let out a breath, lifted the quilt and prepared to change clothes. At this moment, in the night, a tall, hazy silhouette came from behind the screen. Wang Shuhuai walked out of the light and was not used to the darkness. He didn't see her clearly, but he knew it was her.
Xie Yunchu saw through Wang Shuhuai at a glance.
The man was wearing a navy blue silk gown, standing like a mountain in the dark night. He probably didn't expect her to wake up, so his gown was untied, revealing his muscular chest. Water droplets were flowing down along the distinct lines of his skin. Xie Yunchu's eyebrows suddenly twitched, and she immediately looked away and touched the closet.
Wang Shuhuai was used to Xie Yunchu ignoring him, so he went to bed, leaned against the pillow in the outer room, lay with his eyes closed and knees bent, waiting for her to come back.
Her body fragrance lingered everywhere on the bed. Wang Shuhuai took a deep breath. Living with her every night, he was also tormented. But he kept repeating the words of the imperial physician and suppressed the thought. Of course, even if she was fine now, he was afraid that he would not be able to get what he wanted.
She didn't like him so much, so there was no way she would be willing to do that kind of thing with him, and he couldn't force her.
There was a sharp thump from the closet, as if something had hit it. Wang Shuhuai immediately stood up and walked around the bed rails. He caught a glimpse of Xie Yunchu leaning against the closet, gasping for breath.
"Yun Chu, what's wrong?"
He raised his hand to help her.
The scorching heat wave passed through his skin and Xie Yunchu shivered.
Her mouth was dry and she trembled as she said, "I drank too much and I'm thirsty now. Second Master, please help me make a pot of tea."
Wang Shuhuai didn't move his eyebrows and tried to look at her, "I'll help you back to bed first."
Xie Yunchu avoided his gaze. She was holding a piece of clothing in her hand. She was soaked with sweat. The thin fabric stuck to her exquisite curves, and the curvature was very obvious. "No need, just go..." She spoke with some difficulty.
Wang Shuhuai suddenly felt something was wrong and said in silence, "Then don't move."
He turned and left the inner room, lifted the curtain and went to the outer room to get the teapot.
Xie Yunchu quickly took off his clothes and put on clean clothes.
But Wang Shuhuai was worried that she was not feeling well, so he came very quickly. The vast moonlight shone through the layers of gauze curtains, casting a thin silver glow. He saw an alluring whiteness at a glance, his throat rolled, and he looked away.
Xie Yunchu buttoned up her clothes quickly, turned around, and saw her husband standing beside the high table twisting a teapot. Without saying a word, Xie Yunchu walked over, took the teapot from his hand, and poured tea for herself, not even forgetting to give him a dry, "Thank you."
Wang Shuhuai had a bitter smile on his lips when he heard that, and he sat down on the edge of the bed. Xie Yunchu took a few sips of tea, and felt a little better. He immediately walked around him, got on the bed, and lay down on the inside.
Still with her back to him.
She just lay there, the man's fresh scent was everywhere, and the laziness was wandering around her body, and she couldn't fall asleep.
After all, she has been through this and knows what it means.
No way, she has been able to remain calm about that kind of thing for so many years, what happened tonight?
Xie Yunchu is such an unstable person.
Even though she agreed with Wang Yining's words during the day, if it were her, she wouldn't need a man at all.
Compared to the little happiness that men can give her, she doesn't want to be known as someone who keeps a male lover.
Xie Yunchu is a clean person, and in this respect she and Wang Shuhuai are in agreement.
Take a deep breath and continue to sleep with your eyes closed.
Wang Shuhuai was a martial artist, and he felt that his wife's breathing was disordered, and she was obviously not as calm as before. He leaned over, almost hanging over her, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Now the unique pine scent on his body completely filled her nose, bringing out the evil fire in her body. Xie Yunchu's lips were tightly tightened, and he turned around with a frown, saying unhappily, "I'm fine."
Wang Shuhuai asked in a good-tempered manner, "You can be angry, but if you feel uncomfortable, you have to tell me."
Xie Yunchu realized that his tone was too aggressive just now, and tried to calm down, "I'm not, I just drank too much and my body is a little hot, why don't you go to sleep in the outer room."
Wang Shuhuai pursed his lips and said nothing.
After a moment's silence, he noticed that her forehead was covered with a dense layer of fine sweat. He turned around to get a handkerchief from the high table and wiped it for her himself. He reached out his hand, and Xie Yunchu turned her head subconsciously, and her wet lips slid across his palm.
Both of them shuddered.
Wang Shuhuai's tone remained calm, "You are sweating..." He gently wiped the tip of her forehead, then withdrew his hand.
Xie Yunchu's expression was also shaken by his actions. She looked at the man in front of her. She had been married to him for two lifetimes, and even when she loved him the most, she had never treated him like this. Now, looking at him was like finally finding a rain after a long drought. She had the urge to throw herself into his arms.
Something's wrong. It shouldn't be like this.
She couldn't have drunk at the wrong bar.
Recalling that she choked when the maid served her wine, Xie Yunchu suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the wine.
I couldn't understand why for a moment, but I was troubled by the current embarrassing situation.
Wang Shuhuai looked at her, her bright red lips covered with a thin layer of water as they moved back and forth.
Looks very thirsty.
I just had tea, how could I feel thirsty so quickly?
"What's wrong with you?" This time his tone was more serious.
Xie Yunchu propped himself up half way and said expressionlessly, "Maybe I drank the wrong wine." He sounded a little aggrieved and helpless.
Considering all the signs she had just given and this sentence, Wang Shuhuai immediately guessed what was going on, and then frowned tightly.
"You bastard!"
Someone must have brought that kind of wine to the family dinner, and Wang Shuhuai could guess who that person was.
Don’t be fooled by the strict rules and luxurious appearance of the wealthy families. The filth inside is beyond the imagination of outsiders.
"I'll go find some hangover pills for you." He got up and went out.
Xie Yunchu was slightly stunned. As a husband, his first thought at this time was to help her find hangover pills... It must be said that this man's character was impeccable.
In fact, in his previous life, except for Xie Yunxiu before his death, Wang Shuhuai had never been involved with any woman, and no woman had ever come to him to show off and be jealous. Although there was Jiang Cairu in this life, Wang Shuhuai's attitude was very clear from beginning to end, and he did not give the other party any chance at all.
He has never flirted with any woman.
Of course, this includes her.
While Wang Shuhuai was out, Xie Yunchu drank two large cups of tea and the cold water helped to calm the scorching heat. She felt much more comfortable when she lay down.
After a moment, Wang Shuhuai turned back and comforted her quietly, "I have arranged for someone to find the pills. Just hold on for a while."
When Xie Yunchu heard his magnetic voice, her throat rolled and the heat in her body awakened in an instant, and suddenly rushed to her brows. The thought was clamoring strongly. Xie Yunchu knew what she wanted. She turned around and looked straight at her husband.
Wang Shuhuai was somewhat puzzled by her gaze.
Xie Yunchu said desperately, "Come on."
Wang Yining still has to go out to look for someone, but her man is right in front of her, so she might as well use him.
Wang Shuhuai was taken aback by these words. He was silent for a long time and sighed helplessly, "Aren't you not feeling well?"
Xie Yunchu analyzed calmly, "I don't know what kind of wine this is. What if I can't find the right pill? Even if I do, I don't know how long it will take to find it. Do you think it's painful to see me like this? Let's just make a quick decision."
When Wang Shuhuai heard the words "quick battle, quick decision", he was speechless for a while.
Seeing Wang Shuhuai didn't move, Xie Yunchu got angry and said, "Why are you hesitating? Why are you pretending to be a gentleman? You stick to me every day and sleep in this backyard. What are you planning? Do you think I don't know?"
When Wang Shuhuai heard Xie Yunchu wrongly accusing him, he said angrily, "Who do you think I am? Do you think I am pestering you for a man-woman thing?"
Xie Yunchu wanted to ask "What else?", but then she remembered the words that pleased her, and shut up. If she continued to argue with him, he might bring up a lot of things to say.
She said patiently, "Come on."
Wang Shuhuai's tone slowed down this time, "Wait a minute, I'll think about whether there is any other way."
Xie Yunchu had only been postpartum for a month and a half, so it was not appropriate for her to have sex. Besides, he didn't want her to go through the pain of childbirth again. He had no intention of touching her before finding a safe way.
Xie Yunchu looked at Wang Shuhuai who was deep in thought and curled his lips.
What other way was there? Xie Yunchu didn’t believe it.
She lay down and took a deep breath. Her internal organs were surrounded by a hot and spicy breath. She was very thirsty and needed to quench her thirst urgently.
Wang Shuhuai looked at her, his dark eyes were already covered with a layer of confusion and tinged with vague desire, and her fragile and boneless beauty was endlessly released in front of him.
How could he not want to?
But Wang Shuhuai always has a clear distinction between what should be done and what should not be done.
He leaned over and half-embraced her in his arms.
"Chu'er, let me help you..."
This hoarse and tender voice of "Chu'er" made her eyes tear up. If he had called her like this in her previous life, then her whole life of waiting for him would not be filled with sadness.
She stared into the void in the dark night, her voice still calm, "How can you help?"
Wang Shuhuai didn't reply to her, his warm breath slowly moved down along her cheeks.
