Chapter 34 Suction Cup
"Found it! Your Majesty, you remember it so clearly!" A voice with some excitement came closer. Wei Qingcheng was holding a black painted box in his hand.
She placed it on the table and opened the box with a long finger. There were six pink cups. Wei Qingcheng took out four.
The whole cup is outlined in the shape of a lotus, and it looks like a slightly curled leaf. There is a thumb-sized yellow stamen painted on the inside. There is a small hole next to the stamen. Looking upwards, there is a green thin tube that looks like the root of a plant.
"Wow, what kind of cup is this? I've never seen it before," Lin Qingyu exclaimed in a low voice.
"My sister said this is called a suction cup. Just as the name suggests, you can drink water from the green root without your mouth and teeth touching the pink cup wall."
Wei Qingcheng pointed at the cup and continued to introduce it to them.
"I guess this will be a fine item in Bianjing in a few days. It also has a nice name: Pink Lotus Autumn Exercise Cup.
Xiaofeng went to wash it, and Awu went to get a jar of rice wine. Let's try the new ones today. After a few days, everyone will have some and it won't be strange anymore."
The four of them sat at the round table, waiting for Awu to pour the wine and sipped it from their cups.
"Drinking like this is so novel, haha!" Lin Qingyu touched the cup fondly.
"I don't think drinking like this is very enjoyable. This cup is more suitable for my little daughter to eat cakes and chat with her."
Li Yi lost interest after taking two puffs and turned to look at Xie Jingyu. Who knew that this wife slave would start to bother him again?
"Qingcheng, that's enough. You can't drink anymore."
Wei Qingcheng had just taken two sips when Xie Jingyu took the cup away. He was so angry that he reached under the table and pinched Xie Jingyu's thigh.
"My lady, please stop making trouble. There are so many people here."
Xie Jingyu spoke directly. Wei Qingcheng was shocked by his serious expression and frivolous words, and quickly put her hands back on the table.
"My Lord, I'm not saying this, can you still see us?"
Li Yi curled his lips. Having grown up together, he still didn't understand Xie Jingyu.
Xie Jingyu didn't respond to him at all, but Lin Qingyu took over the conversation.
"If you can't see it, then don't see it. This cup is so cute. Can Qingcheng give me one?"
Wei Qingcheng nodded.
"Of course, this was originally prepared for you and the Marquis."
After Wei Qingcheng finished speaking, she felt a sour feeling in the room, and added: "And Jingyu's."
Lin Qingyu was very happy. He finished the wine in the glass and did not pour it again. He held the glass in his hand to admire it.
"Thank you Qingcheng, the craftsmen in your house are amazing. This cup is so exquisitely made and different from ordinary cups. I wonder how they came up with this structure."
Wei Qingcheng held Xie Jingyu's fingers under the table, comforting him while talking to Lin Qingyu.
"This was not made by the craftsmen of the Wei Mansion. My eldest brother accidentally saw someone selling it when he was going to other places. However, the workmanship is a bit rough.
My eldest brother thought it was good, so he paid money to sell the design of the cup, and later it came to the Wei Mansion. "
"Oh, the Marquis just said that my daughter would like this kind of cup. How did you know that?"
The topic changed so quickly that when Lin Qingyu asked, Li Yi was slow to respond.
"I have a little sister at home who happens to like these little gadgets," he replied calmly.
"So that's how it is. I thought the Marquis had married," Lin Qingyu propped his chin with his hand, his clear eyes filled with many questions.
Li Yi didn't like this man very much. He was bold and unruly, with a good appearance but nothing to show for it. He replied perfunctorily, "No," and nothing more happened.
Unexpectedly, Lin Qingyu seemed to be unaware of it and continued to ask with great interest: "Does the Marquis have concubines or bed warmers in his mansion?"
"No rules! What does it have to do with you?" Such a private matter should not be asked so lightly.
Li Yi's face turned colder, but Lin Qingyu didn't say anything. He poured himself a glass of wine and started drinking again.
"I asked the kitchen to make some pastries. They will be here soon. Let's use some." Wei Qingcheng saw that something was not right and said something to smooth things over. She felt that something was not right.
Although Lin Qingyu is free and easy and outgoing, he is not so bold and rude. So why does he have to ask these questions?
Wei Qingcheng thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out. She thought about asking Xie Jingyu in the evening.
Seeing the cakes coming, he invited everyone to eat cakes.
…
At night, the two of them were lying on the bed talking, and Wei Qingcheng expressed the doubts in her heart.
"...Prince, why do you think Lin Qingyu must ask?"
Xie Jingyu touched his smooth black hair: "What do you think, Qingcheng?"
"I don't know, I can't think of it," Wei Qingcheng hugged his waist and shook her head.
"My silly sweetheart, you will know if you observe more."
Xie Jingyu kissed him on the forehead, causing Wei Qingcheng to rub against him and act like a spoiled child.
"Oh, just tell me, good brother~"
"What did you call me? Call me again?"
Xie Jingyu immediately pressed the man under him, and asked excitedly with red eyes,
"Good brother~"
Wei Qingcheng had bad intentions. When Xie Jingyu taught him how to practice sword today, he couldn't help but feel itchy.
At this moment, he called me "good brother" softly and blew air into my ears.
Xie Jingyu was so tempted that she hurriedly kissed his milky white neck.
In less than a moment, Wei Qingcheng forgot what she wanted to ask...
…
After the court session, he rode a fast horse to visit his sister at Li Yi's residence. It had been a long time since he had seen Yan Rong. He wondered what trouble that devilish girl had caused.
They lost their mother when they were young, and now for his happiness, his sister can't live with him. Xie Jingyu feels a little guilty.
I was also afraid that if it went on for too long, Wei Qingcheng would become suspicious.
He whipped the horse's butt with a whip, and the horse ran away quickly.
I was paying attention to the time but didn't see Father Wei who was talking to a nearby business...
When I entered the side yard, I saw two girls talking to each other with their heads facing each other, their faces flushed.
Seeing him coming, Yan Rong ran over with her skirt lifted up.
"Brother, you finally came to see me. How are you and sister-in-law doing recently?"
Xie Jingyu handed her the box and motioned for her to open it.
"I bought them at the morning market. They are fresh pea yellow."
"Brother, I know you know me best, come in quickly,"
Yan Rong took him into the house, and Li Hanmo straightened his clothes and bowed to him.
He nodded, and then asked the girl who had already picked up the pea yellow: "Are you used to living here?"
"That's great. Mo Han and I have similar interests. We can study and sleep together. Life like this is simply too good to be true!"
Xie Jingyu smiled and shook his head. After all, he was still a child and liked to play with his friends.
But who could have imagined that the idea of "substitute marriage" was proposed to him by the little girl in front of him?
"What books has Han Mo read recently?"
Yan Rong doesn't like to read the Four Books and Five Classics, nor does she like to read Women's Virtues
