Chapter 342 Role Model
Fortunately, she changed her words quickly, otherwise Xie Guimo would have grabbed her in his arms to help her learn her lesson.
Chen Tang wanted to cook lotus seed soup for him, although Chen Tang thought it was useless. Xie Guimo did not let her go and held her in his arms, "I will not take a concubine. Having you in this life is enough."
Chen Tang was moved, but his words were too disappointing, "Life is long..."
Xie Guimo's back teeth itched, "When have I ever lied to you?"
Chen Tang hugged his neck, "I know you won't lie to me, but there are very few children of noble families who only have one person in the inner house..."
"I can't control others, but I certainly won't."
He spoke each word with a firm look in his eyes.
That look made Shen Tang feel that she shouldn't question it, and she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so sure?"
"I want to set an example for my father."
“…”
This reason was so strong that even Shen Tang couldn't refute it.
Xie Guimo was indeed unhappy about the fact that the prince had a concubine. Could it be that their relationship was so bad in their previous life that he did not take a concubine just because he wanted to set an example for the prince?
It has always been fathers who set role models for their sons, but this is the first time I hear of a son setting a role model for his father.
Chen Tang wanted to leave, but Xie Guimo didn't let him, so Chen Tang stayed with him.
I can't give him anything else, but I will try my best to follow his will.
After accompanying Xie Guimo to read half a book, Yin Xing came back and said, "I went to ask for the contract of sale. The old lady was very unhappy, but she still gave it to me."
If you don't give the indenture contract, it means you don't really want to give those two maids to Xie Guimo.
But if they were given a contract to sell their bodies, and if the two maids had no relatives in the mansion and entered Chenxiangxuan, they might not be controlled by the old lady. It is normal for the old lady to be unhappy.
Ginkgo came back very quickly, but the two maids that Chen Qi sold were still not back.
Xie Guimo had something to ask Chen Qi to do, and asked, "Did Chen Qi sell himself out as well?"
This guy really means bad things when he's mean.
But it is indeed a bit strange that after selling two maids, they did not come back for such a long time.
Another quarter of an hour passed before Chen Qi came back with sixty taels of silver. The two maids were carefully selected by the old lady. They were good-looking, and they were to warm the prince's bed, so the human trafficker only offered them thirty taels of silver. Ordinary maids could not be sold at this price.
Looking at the silver on the desk, Xie Guimo glanced at Chen Qi and said, "For such a trivial matter as selling a maid, do you still need to watch over it in the front yard?"
Hand the person over to Manager Zhou and he will naturally take care of it.
Chen Qi said, "I was going to come back directly, but when I sent the two maids to the front yard, the second master happened to come back and took a closer look at the two maids. Then the servant next to the second master left the house. I felt strange, so I stayed in the front yard to take a look..."
"The two maids were bought by the Second Master, and the servant placed them in one of the Second Master's private houses."
Chen Tang, "..."
Does the Second Master want those two maids?
If you want to give it to someone as a gift, you don't have to let the human traffickers make a profit from it. You can just tell Manager Zhou directly, or even ask the old lady for it directly.
If the Old Madam and the Second Wife knew that the person they gave to Xie Guimo ended up in the Second Master's bed, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood.
Xie Guimo directly asked Chen Qi and his secret guards to divide the sixty taels of silver. Chen Qi also included Ginkgo and Qiu Tong, and each of them received five taels. The two maids were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
At night, Chen Tang was lying on the couch reading a book. He had slept a little longer during the day, so he was still energetic. Hot water was brought from the kitchenette, and Chen Tang took a comfortable hot bath and then went to bed.
Xie Guimo came back from the study and saw two quilts on the bed. Chen Tang was sleeping in the inner room, wrapped tightly. Xie Guimo frowned, "What is this for?"
It's so obvious, do you still need to ask?
If they slept together, Chen Tang was afraid that he would lose control, so he thought it would be better for them to sleep with separate quilts.
But Xie Guimo disagreed. If he couldn't eat, he couldn't hold her. He reached out and pulled his own quilt, threw it on the small couch, lifted Chen Tang's quilt, and held her over, "Sleep together."
Neither the prince nor the princess could persuade Xie Guimo to do something he was unwilling to do, and Chen Tang never tried to persuade him.
He insisted on holding her while she slept, so she had no choice but to obey him. In fact, she was so used to being held that she felt a little uncomfortable when he suddenly stopped holding her.
But the gentleman soon regretted his decision. He held the soft and fragrant beauty in his arms, but could do nothing. It was as if someone was teasing him with a dozen feathers. He looked back at the quilt.
Chen Tang suppressed his laughter, "You regret it now."
With a gloating tone, Xie Guimo kissed her directly, "You dare to laugh."
Shen Tang didn't dare.
Xie Guimo didn't get out of bed to pick up the quilt again, but after a while he was going to take a shower. Chen Tang couldn't bear it and whispered, "Actually, just be gentle like last time, and nothing will happen..."
The sound was so low that it was almost inaudible.
Xie Guimo also felt that nothing would happen, but he didn't dare to take the risk. What if something happened?
Xie Guimo hugged Chen Tang tightly and said, "I dare not take risks with you and the child. It's only a month. I can bear it."
Chen Tang said, “It’s cold now, you’ll catch a cold if you take a shower.”
Xie Guimo looked at Chen Tang and whispered in her ear, "It's okay if you don't take a shower, just help me..."
Chen Tang didn't understand, "Help you with what?"
Xie Guimo didn't say anything, but Chen Tang understood and his whole body turned red like a monkey's butt.
…
The next day, when Chen Tang woke up, the sunlight shone into the house through the window, and the mottled shadows of the trees swayed in the wind.
Chen Tang got up, washed, and took Ginkgo to pay his respects to the princess.
When they went there, the maid showed the ginseng to the princess, who said, "It looks good, this is it."
Chen Tang stepped forward and asked, "Is mother going to Prince Ning's mansion?"
The princess smiled and said, "Go and talk to the old princess, and then see Princess Roujia. Do you want to go with mother?"
After two days of hesitation, Shen Tang made the decision instantly.
She nodded, "I will go with my mother."
Chen Tang and the princess rode in a carriage to Prince Ning's mansion, and the maid led them to meet the old Princess Ning.
Seeing them, the old Princess Ning smiled brightly and said, "Old Princess is in high spirits when things are going well. She is getting more energetic day by day."
Old Princess Ning smiled and said, "All these happy events in Prince Ning's Mansion are thanks to Tang'er."
Princess Ning invited the princess and Shen Tang to sit down.
The princess asked, "Is Princess Roujia okay?"
Princess Ning was happy but also worried. "I had severe morning sickness. I vomited a lot when I woke up in the morning. I didn't even eat two bites of breakfast. In just a few days, I have lost a lot of weight."
Zhao Ma said at the side, "I just went to see the princess. She was still envious of the Crown Prince's wife. She is pregnant and doesn't need to suffer from morning sickness."
There are people like Chen Tang, but they are rare. Even Chen Tang himself did not dare to imagine that such a good thing would happen.
Princess Ning said, "Princess Qingran is also vomiting a lot. Tang'er is coming to see Roujia, she must be happy, but what if she gets infected..."
It is better not to endure such suffering if possible.
