Chapter 270 Huge Contrast
After taking down Black Dragon Stronghold, Qin Sheng, his third brother and everyone else took the bandits and their belongings back to the County Magistrate's Mansion. After the handover, he didn't wait for his third brother and went home first.
Are you so impatient to just leave Qin Zhao in a mess? What will happen to him if you wait?
"Third Master, do you want us to take you there?" Zhou Da and others asked.
Qin Zhao waved his hand and rode back on his horse.
On this side, when Qin Sheng returned home, it was already midnight and his family had already gone to bed.
The Qin family added five or six more rooms to their house, and Lu Songli and the four Qin brothers all had their own study rooms.
After saying hello to the two guards on duty, Qin Sheng went to take a shower. He used two buckets of cold water to make himself cool, and then returned to his room.
Lu Songli had already fallen asleep. Since coming here, she always goes to bed early and gets up early.
It is almost mid-April in the lunar calendar and the weather has become hot. Besides, there is no other way to cool down except ice and a palm-leaf fan.
Lu Songli was only wearing a silk bellyband and silk pants. Probably because it was hot, she slept with her legs spread out, trying to occupy as much space on the bed as possible.
Qin Sheng lifted the curtains and saw this scene in the faint starlight, his movements pausing slightly. His wife's sleeping position was fine in the winter, but when the weather got hot, it was like this. It was completely inconsistent with the impression she gave people, like a scam.
Qin Sheng climbed onto the bed and curled up on the empty bed at the edge, feeling aggrieved.
He looked at his familiar wife tenderly, and after she unconsciously adjusted her posture and withdrew her hand, he quickly occupied her vacant bed space and slowly closed his eyes.
At this moment, Lu Songli turned over again, put her hands directly on him, and touched his abdominal muscles back and forth.
Qin Sheng was delighted, quickly opened his eyes and looked sideways.
This was a completely unconscious action on Lu Songli's part. While she was sleeping soundly, she only felt that it was icy and very pleasant to touch.
Qin Sheng sighed and was about to take her hand away.
She leaned over to him, her soft body half lying on him, her slender legs rubbing against him, and he sighed softly in pleasure.
Qin Sheng showed a helpless smile, put his arms around her slender waist, and was about to fall asleep in each other's arms.
But good times don't last long. Soon, when the coldness on his body dissipated, she frowned and then pulled away, leaving only her left hand on him. But soon, she withdrew her hand as well. As she did so, she even pushed him in disgust, and when she couldn't move him, she kicked him.
Qin Sheng was completely confused. No, what was going on now?
After a while, Qin Sheng turned his head to look at his wife again with a look of despair on his face. He had a premonition that there would be a lot of such scenes throughout the summer.
My dear wife is so heartless. She treats him like her dear little baby in winter, but despises him in summer!
For Lu Songli, who was in her dream, she felt like she was touching an ice cube at first, and then she leaned over the big ice cube, feeling very comfortable. But after a while, the ice cube turned into a stove. Isn't this a scam? Annoying!
The next day, Qin Sheng got up early and went to the military camp. When he came back, Lu Songli had already finished breakfast and left home.
Before going to the county magistrate's office, Lu Songli went to the north of the city to visit her beloved brother Lu Mingzhi.
Because Lü Mingzhi needed to test papermaking formulas, it was inconvenient to do so in the backyard of the County Magistrate's Mansion. Furthermore, the County Magistrate's Mansion was a forced upgrade of the original county government office, and the space was too small. If he wanted to conduct experiments, he would not be able to carry out the experiment.
Therefore, Lu Songli bought a four-story courtyard in the north of the city. Lu Songli planned to temporarily set up the paper mill there, so Lu Mingzhi moved there.
When Lu Songli arrived at the place, she first looked at his recent achievements, nodded, and said that if he worked harder, he would be close to success.
For a moment, Lu Songli was in a good mood. After encouraging him a few words, she asked about his teacher with concern, "Mingzhi, have you sent the letter to your teacher?"
"Second sister, I have already sent the letter." Lu Mingzhi complained in his heart, is his second sister really thinking about his teacher?
"And the teacher wrote me a reply before he left." He also just received it yesterday.
Knowing that his master was on the way, Lu Songli felt a little better. "Mingzhi, I heard you say before that your brothers who are out there are all like your master, and they all like to delve into all kinds of strange and bizarre things?"
"Yes." They were all called weirdos in the academy.
Lu Songli showed a longing look, a scientific research expert, she wanted it.
Lu Mingzhi said vigilantly, "Second sister, please don't ask me to write to them one by one. Your brother's reputation is worthless in front of them."
Lu Songli: Of course she knows this. How can a junior like you have face in front of your senior brothers?
Lu Songli changed the subject, "I still have something for you to do later. You must rest well and don't let your body collapse."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the trusted servant standing by and said, "Please pay attention to preparing tea and snacks every day to ensure that the Second Young Master can have a delicious meal whenever he wants."
"yes."
"Second sister, is there anything else you want to do?" Lu Mingzhi had a bad premonition in his heart.
“There’s so much to do.”
"You're making things difficult for me."
Lu Songli patted his shoulder and said, "Remember, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. In our family, women are treated like men and men are treated like animals. Just accept your fate."
Looking at the bruises under his eyes, Lu Songli remembered that her younger brother was only fifteen years old this year. He started his education at the age of five and has only been studying for ten years. It was a bit like enslaving a high school student.
In a rare moment of conscience, she kindly offered a suggestion, "If you don't want to be so exhausted, write more letters to your classmates, friends, and close friends, and ask them to come to Houcheng to help you."
Anyway, just call for help quickly!
Lu Mingzhi: Doesn’t this sound like something is wrong?
"Second sister, shouldn't you reduce the tasks assigned to me and let me rest at this time?"
Lu Songli gave him a look. Rest? What are you thinking about?
"Write a letter. As the saying goes, it's better to die than to die alone. I'm doing this for your own good." Lu Songli continued, "Besides, this place isn't bad either. Look, I'll provide whatever you want. If they come here, I'll treat them all equally. Do you think they'll be so happy here that they won't want to leave?"
Lu Mingzhi thought about it. Although he was a little tired in the four-courtyard house in the North City, he basically got whatever he wanted. It felt so good.
