Chapter 137 I’m addicted to being a brother
Shi Jianli closed her eyes, and her eyelashes, wet with moisture, brushed against his face.
The hand holding her wrist loosened, reached into the water, grasped her soft waist, and lifted her up. Mingzhao's sleeves were mostly wet.
He held her face, bit her lips lightly, and kissed her deeply.
Shi Jianli's breathing was a little disordered, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, her attention was taken away by his increasingly passionate kiss, and she stopped unbuckling his belt.
Mingzhao came out with empty hands, untied his belt, took off his clothes and stepped into the water.
The water in the tub overflowed, and he lifted her up in his arms.
Shi Jianli put her arms around his neck, her hair was wet and stuck to her face.
Mingzhao raised his hand to push her hair behind her ear, and his hot breath fell on her cheek.
Shi Jianli leaned on his shoulder and breathed slowly. He kissed her slightly wet eyelashes, lowered his eyes and bathed her carefully. His palm fell to her waist, and moved up along her waistline, controlling her heartbeat.
Shi Jianli grabbed his hand and said, "I'll wash it myself."
Mingzhao's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and his fingertips brushed across her palm. He pulled her hand and placed it on his chest, then kissed her snow-white neck. "I will serve my lady, please save some strength."
Shi Jianli was speechless. She leaned on his shoulder and bit his chin.
After washing, he lowered his head and held her head, kissing her until her eyes became blurry and she lost her strength and let him hold her obediently.
The warm water splashed onto the edge of the bucket, and the sounds of each other's breathing were amplified in the mist, gradually becoming lower, and she let out a few soft hums from time to time.
A moist kiss landed on the corner of her eye, and Mingzhao's tone seemed to be both soothing and bewitching: "Call me."
"...Husband." She blinked slowly.
"I love you, Yaoyao." He sighed softly.
They didn't stay in the bathroom for too long. Mingzhao wrapped her in a bath towel and carried her back to the room.
After putting her on the bed, Mingzhao rubbed her flushed cheeks with his fingertips and coaxed her, "Kiss me."
As he spoke, he moved closer to her.
Shi Jianli tilted her head and touched his lips, then kissed him with half-closed eyes, and he held her waist again.
All her senses were manipulated by him, she fell into the springtime, her consciousness gradually became blurred, she was confused and lost in love.
After the incident, Shi Jianli was extremely tired. She lay on the bed listening to the noise of him leaving, with her eyes half open and drowsy.
Not long after, Mingzhao came back and sat beside the bed. He gently traced her eyebrows with his fingertips and then moved them to the corners of her lips.
Feeling that he was a bit disturbing, Shi Jianli weakly grabbed his wrist and closed her eyes.
He changed his hand and gently stroked her hair, "Go to sleep if you're tired."
Soon, a voice was heard outside: "Son-in-law, the water is ready."
Mingzhao also picked her up to clean up, asked someone to go into the house to change the bed sheets, and when he came back, he took a towel to wring out her hair.
Shi Jianli fell asleep early with her head resting on his legs.
After her hair was dry, Mingzhao went to bed and held her in his arms, sniffing the faint fragrance on her body and feeling satisfied.
The next day, after getting up, getting dressed and having breakfast, Shi Jianli continued to draw the clothing draft from yesterday.
Mingzhao also took her to the study. While she was drawing, he was reading a military book beside her, glancing at her from time to time.
At sunset, Shi Jianli was finally satisfied after some revisions. She handed the manuscript to Lanxing and asked her to deliver it to Hua Simengzuo.
The two of them went to Qionghua Courtyard, followed by servants carrying the return gifts.
When Qiao Ruoying saw this, she asked, "Why is there a return gift?"
"It was mother's idea. I prepared two copies and sent them here. Second Aunt, please accept them." Mingzhao said with a smile.
"Okay." Qiao Ruoying was even happier when she heard that. She smiled and pulled Shi Jianli's hand. "Come, sit down and eat."
Wait two days and then send it back to the couple.
Ming Zhouhe held up his face to look at them, and smiled and called out to Ming Zhao, "Cousin-in-law, you're here."
Mingzhao was still holding Shi Jianli's hand when he sat down. He glanced at him and said, "You're addicted to being a brother."
Qiao Ruoying patted his shoulder and said angrily, "You little brat, you have no respect for your elders. Be careful or your elder brother will beat you up."
Just rely on the photo and don't bother with him.
Ming Weishen poured himself a glass of wine, glanced at his son, and enjoyed watching the show.
After being warned by his mother, Ming Zhouhe coughed lightly, took the wine jug from his father's hand, stood up, poured a glass of wine and placed it in front of Ming Zhaohuan, "Brother, I apologize to you."
Shi Jianli took the soup that Mingzhao had served her and took a sip, then glanced at Mingzhouhe.
"Yeah." Ming Zhao took the wine and clinked glasses with Ming Weishen.
Ming Zhouhe was having his meal when he saw Ming Zhao picking up his cousin's favorite dishes from time to time, with a smile on his face.
A piece of meat was placed in the bowl. Ming Zhouhe turned around and heard his father say, "Are you jealous? You'll be able to get married in the second half of the year."
"Are you old and blurry? No, you can't. If you are blurry in your prime, your mother will dislike you."
"Eat yours, little brat." Ming Weishen picked up a piece of food he didn't like with chopsticks and put it into his bowl.
Ming Zhouhe looked at the food in the bowl in silence, and then quietly finished the food with rice.
Qiao Ruoying laughed.
After dinner, Shi Jianli and Mingzhao walked back slowly.
Seeing the grandparents and grandchildren walking not far ahead, Mingzhao took them by the hand and changed the route, "Let's go to Tangliyuan."
Shi Jianli nodded, "Okay."
After watching the stars in the yard for a while, the two washed up and lay on the bed in their pajamas.
Mingzhao even held her hand in his and squeezed it, "Madam's bed smells so good."
"Yeah." Shi Jianli responded lazily, looking at his outline in the dim night.
He held her waist and pressed her into his arms, hugging her tightly.
Shi Jianli kissed him on the face, buried her head in his neck, and breathed shallowly.
Mingzhao curled his lips and patted her back gently.
The next day, Shi Jianli and Mingzhao returned to the Princess's Mansion.
Butler Qin came out to greet them. "The princess and the prince are back. Shall I have someone prepare lunch?"
Shi Jianli glanced at Ming Zhaohuan and said, "Stay at your house tonight."
It was not enough for him to sleep in Tangliyuan, he also wanted to sleep in her Chunlai Residence, and even brought his official uniform for court tomorrow.
"Okay!" Butler Qin led the two to the main courtyard, Chunlai Residence, with a smile on his face.
Along the way, the servants greeted the two of them and said, "Princess, Prince."
Shi Jianli nodded and said to the Gao family, "Send the return gift to the warehouse."
"Yes, Princess."
Before getting married, Mingzhao had also been to the Princess's Mansion. The layout of Chunlai Residence was similar to Tangliyuan, except that it was bigger.
After entering the bedroom and seeing the layout, Mingzhao even laughed and said, "Even the bed is exactly the same."
"The layout of Tangli Courtyard is very good. I'm too lazy to change it after getting used to it." The room was filled with the incense she usually lit. Shi Jianli sat on the couch, took the tea handed to her by the little maid, and glanced at someone who seemed to be inspecting her territory.
Mingzhao still leaned over her, "I'm thirsty too."
Shi Jianli pointed to another cup of tea on the table.
Without even looking at it, he said, "I want to drink the cup in your hand, Madam."
Shi Jianli was speechless and handed the tea she had taken a sip of to his lips.
Mingzhao took two sips from her hand, leaned closer to her, and gave her a warm kiss on the corner of her lips.
