Chapter 85 Ask Me to Have a Good Sleep
At the end of June, seeing that Yu Jin's marriage was settled, the whole family felt relieved. The second wife and her husband began to busy themselves with their daughter's dowry, and even the eldest brother was so busy that he had no time to rest.
July 22nd is the 70th birthday of Mrs. Wu from the Xie family.
Old Mrs. Wu is the most senior elder in the Xie family. This is her birthday, and now that the Xie family is the richest in the city, this birthday must be celebrated with great fanfare.
Planning a birthday party for an elder is not an easy task.
Originally, Second Aunt, the daughter-in-law, should have taken the lead, but Feng said she was busy with Yujin's dowry, leaving Chen Qi to work non-stop, sending invitations, repairing the house, buying things, and setting up the stage...
Fortunately, Chen Qi is not the kind of person who would resist even if faced with a huge pressure.
The matter of Yu Shuo's schooling was handed over to Aunt Yun, and Chen Qi asked Sun Xueyi to help take care of the chores at home, and pushed the work of going out to buy groceries to her eldest brother, and her father-in-law also helped to monitor the progress of the project in the house.
Xiao Ling followed closely and was very helpful.
Even so, there are still a lot of things that need her to deal with.
As July approached, she was extremely busy, getting up early and going to bed late every day, assigning tasks, checking progress, and managing staff.
Three times a day, several maids in charge stood in the corridor of the east wing, waiting to answer the second mistress's questions, to collect money, and to ask for advice.
In addition, as the weather got hotter, Chen Qi's appetite became worse. She couldn't eat the ice snacks sent by the restaurant every day, so she gave them all to Yu Jing.
Only during her nap time every day could she lie down peacefully for a while and rest her complicated mind.
Because Xie Yuduo turned down a lot of branch businesses, he has been much freer recently and doesn't go out often. During the day, he just stays in the study to deal with correspondence documents for various branches and merchants from all over the world.
But Chen Qi has been very busy these days. Every day when she returns to her room, she falls asleep immediately and doesn't even have time to talk to herself, let alone play and be intimate.
That day, he simply approved a few major matters and handed the remaining minor matters to several managers. He took advantage of the lunch break to find Chen Qi and asked her what she was busy with recently.
It was the beginning of July, the sun was blazing in the sky, willow trees cast shade on the ground, the heat was rising, and the cicadas were chirping incessantly.
Everyone was taking a nap, and the East Courtyard was rarely quiet for a while.
Chen Qi was very busy today. He got up at dawn and dealt with a lot of things in the front and back yards. He finally made it to noon, but did not eat properly. Instead, he told people to wait until he woke up from his nap before replying.
At this moment, she had just fallen asleep when she heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
Chen Qi was so sleepy that she didn't even open her eyes and just mumbled softly.
"Xiao Ling, if you have anything to say, wait until I wake up."
"Are you so sleepy?"
This is Xie Yuduo's voice.
Chen Qi forced her eyes open a crack, and when she saw him taking off his coat and coming over, she closed her eyes again.
"Why are you back?"
"I've been bored today, and I've been wanting to see what you've been up to. I came back twice before and after lunch, and you weren't there. This is the third time."
"I'm so sleepy, go somewhere else for a while."
"I just want to stay here."
It was a hot summer day and Chen Qi was very afraid of the heat. A green gauze curtain hung on the bed and a bamboo mat was spread out. She took off her clothes and rested her head on a jade pillow. Her dark black hair was dragging on the pillow. She was only wearing an apricot-red dress that covered her fair and fragrant body. Occasionally, a little bit of her hair was exposed, which made his heart move.
"It's so hot, why are you wearing it?"
As he said that, he went to untie her.
Chen Qi still had her eyes closed and stretched out her hand to block his movements.
"Don't make a fuss, I'm afraid someone will come looking for me later."
"It's okay. Xiao Ling saw me coming in and won't let anyone in."
Chen Qi closed her eyes tightly, frowned slightly, but still did not relax her hands.
"Good brother, don't bother me, let me have a good sleep."
Xie Yuduo gently squeezed her hand and refused to give in.
"You sleep yours, I do mine, it's none of my business."
He grabbed Chen Qi's hand that was trying to stop him, kissed her first, then kissed her all the way up, and took a lot of effort to remove the apricot red dress until it was half covered. It was the moment of passion and excitement...
He looked up and saw that the person on the bed was fast asleep.
His eyes were tightly closed, his breathing was slow and slow, and a thin layer of sweat was oozing from the tip of his nose.
Sleep well.
Xie Yuduo couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He knew she was busy recently, but he didn't expect her to be so busy.
Seeing that she was sweating in her sleep, Xie Yuduo gave up and simply lay down on one side. He took out his usual folding fan and fanned her.
The cool breeze blows and I fall into a sweet dream.
Chen Qi hadn't slept so soundly in a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, she woke up slowly after a good sleep and realized that there was someone lying next to her.
