Chapter 34: The Beauty Trap to Get the Indenture
Mingxi didn't even look up. Sheng Hong threw the book aside, sat on the bed, and pried open Mingxi's hands, letting her look directly at him. Mingxi looked at Sheng Hong's eyes, nose, and mouth, which were so close to her... Mingxi's eyes fell on Sheng Hong's mouth, and she couldn't help swallowing her saliva. Sheng Hong stared at her
, which made her a little nervous. Sheng Hong saw her nervousness and stopped staring at her. He moved his eyes slightly downward and saw the slightly opened collar. It should be because Mingxi's movements were too big when she tried to snatch the book just now, and the collar was loose. Sheng Hong's breathing became more rapid, Mingxi felt it, her whole body was hot, her eyes were wandering, she didn't dare to look at Sheng Hong, Sheng Hong suddenly grabbed Mingxi's hand and pressed her to himself, Mingxi screamed in surprise, but the sound was drowned out, Sheng Hong kissed her, Mingxi was kissed all over, soft and tender, and then the room was full of love...
The song ended, and when the symphony of love was played again, Mingxi began to take the initiative, Sheng Hong was very surprised, and then the red curtains fluttered again, it was unspeakable... It repeated like this until late at night.
On the second day, Mingxi woke up in Sheng Hong's arms. Not only did Sheng Hong feel satisfied yesterday, but Mingxi was also very satisfied with Sheng Hong. The result of her satisfaction was that her waist and legs were sore.
Sheng Hong had woken up a long time ago. When he noticed Mingxi woke up, he kissed Mingxi on the forehead and said, "Today is the most unrestrained day of my life in recent days. Look at the sun, it's already noon. If you feel tired, just sleep a little longer and say you are still recuperating. But I'm afraid I can't accompany you during the day today. I still have to prepare the New Year gifts for all my colleagues. After the New Year, we will go to Tokyo as a family. This is the last holiday gift in Yangzhou City and we can't be careless."
Mingxi nodded lazily in response. Sheng Hong smiled and scratched her nose, saying that she looked as lazy as a cat. Mingxi felt that she didn't have the energy to deal with it, and Sheng Hong didn't get annoyed. He dressed neatly and left with a smile.
Mingxi did not sleep after Sheng Hong left. He had used up too much energy last night and now he was hungry, so he had to get up and eat.
Not long after Mingxi finished his meal, Meng said that Dongrong wanted to see him. Dongrong came to deliver the indenture. Mingxi was secretly surprised by the speed of the work and was a little curious. "Brother Dongrong, the red oriole and the parrot in our courtyard were originally in the madam's room. Their indentures should also be in the madam's hands, right? How did you get them back?"
Mingxi was purely curious, and Dongrong did not hide it from her. "The indentures of the two girls are indeed in the madam's hands. This morning, the master went to the madam's place to get them back for me." Dongrong
said it simply, but Sheng Hong still took some time to get the indentures of the red oriole and the parrot.
After leaving Mingxi's place, Sheng Hong went directly to the Madam's courtyard. When he got there, he didn't tell her the purpose of his visit. He just chatted with the Madam, "I went to Shuyi's place yesterday. She is still weak. I'm afraid she needs to recuperate for some time."
Although the Madam thought it was a bit strange for the Master to talk to her about this so early in the morning, she was also afraid for Mingxi when she thought of the danger she had experienced before giving birth. Her son's full-month banquet was disrupted by that bitch Lin Qinshuang a few days ago, and she herself became ill again. "This Wei is also a poor person. She gave birth with great difficulty, but now she is still pregnant with her child." My son, you can’t raise him by your side, alas!”
Sheng Hong saw that the lady had fallen into his trap and wanted to continue the conversation, but the lady suddenly changed her tone and said, “After all, it’s your fault. You are so cruel to fall in love with such a vicious woman…”
The lady wanted to continue talking, but Sheng Hong interrupted her and said, “As soon as the ice on the river melts in spring, send him to Youyang.”
These words really worked. The lady was excited and said, “Are you serious, my lady? You are willing to do that!” The lady slapped herself on the mouth after she finished speaking. How could she remind the master of something he was reluctant to do? Sheng
Hong lay crookedly on the chair, not responding to the eldest lady's words, and said to himself: "Qin Shuang did make a mistake, and I am so hurt. As the head of the family, I must make decisions."
The eldest lady was originally happy, but after hearing Sheng Hong's words, she felt upset. When he didn't take Wei Shi seriously before, when did he punish Lin Qin Shuang severely when she made a mistake? He was biased, but he refused to admit it!
Seeing that the eldest lady didn't respond to him, Sheng Hong felt that what he had just said was boring, so he continued to talk about Wei Shuyi, "Shuyi is still alive this time, thanks to the maid by her side. What was her name?"
Sheng Hong pretended not to remember, and the eldest lady continued, "It's Zhuli! She's also a housemaid. Her whole family works for me. She's a stable person."
"Oh, yes, it's her! I said she should be rewarded handsomely. You sent some medicinal herbs and two pairs of silver before, right? I heard from Minglan yesterday that the maid has recovered well", Sheng Hong paused tactically. The eldest lady was listening, and Sheng Hong didn't say anything. She couldn't help asking, "She has recovered well, and then what?"
Sheng Hong glanced at the eldest lady's face before continuing, "Since she is a good person and has recovered well, she will naturally be rewarded in the future Staying by Shuyi's side, I thought that when the maid is completely well, I would return her indenture to her in the name of Shuyi, which would also be a
way of repaying the favor. What do you think? "Sheng Hong used this trick tactfully, and the lady didn't think there was anything wrong with it for a while, but she was the one who gave Zhuli away, and she hadn't been of much use yet. If she gave away her indenture, she would definitely not be able to use her for herself, so the lady was a little hesitant.
Sheng Hong saw through it, "Madam, you only need to bring the maid's indenture. Aren't the indentures of the rest of her family still with you?"
The lady thought so too. She still had the indentures of her family members in her hand. Besides, there was nothing for Wei Shuyi to keep an eye on now, so she just gave it to him.
The eldest lady agreed readily, and Sheng Hong praised her a lot, "I said that the eldest lady has always been wise and righteous. Our Sheng family is stable because of the eldest lady in charge. I was promoted thanks to the eldest lady's help. The eldest lady should accept my greetings."
As Sheng Hong said this, he really stood up from the chair and bowed to the eldest lady. The eldest lady was already very happy because of Sheng Hong's praise, and she was even happier to see that Sheng Hong was willing to hold her up. How could she really let Sheng Hong bow down to her, so she hurriedly got up.
Sheng Hong was pulled up by the Madam, and he took the Madam's hand and rubbed it, "Ruofu, you have worked hard!"
The Madam almost burst into tears with these words, "Sir, I know that it is not easy for me to manage the family, I am satisfied, and I will not say anything about the hardship."
Sheng Hong saw that the time was right, and spoke quickly, "I have always known that the Madam is a capable person. I just remember that you gave Shuyi two maids, who is the other one? Why not give them all the indentures? Bring them all together so that it will be easier to manage them in the future." After
Sheng Hong finished speaking, he hugged the lady, hugged her and patted her back gently. The lady was not prepared for Sheng Hong to do this suddenly. The master had not hugged her like this for a long time. The lady's eyes were wet, and she only heard Sheng Hong ask, "Is it okay?"
The lady had no intention of thinking about what was okay. Sheng Hong hugged her tightly again. She was completely immersed in the tenderness of the moment and said "OK" unconsciously.
Sheng Hong heard the answer he wanted, loosened his arms slightly, turned to Fang Mama and said, "Did Fang Mama hear it? The lady agreed, please trouble Fang Mama to get the indentures of the two maids!"
