Chapter 64 Determination
The man was looking at his belt and was wearing a mask, so Shen Tang couldn't see the expression on his face. When he got closer, the man looked up at her, and the hidden anger in his eyes made Shen Tang stunned.
The man threw the belt into the embroidery basket and said unexpectedly, "I said that I had spent three days embroidering a purse and it was not finished. It turned out that you were embroidering the belt for your cousin. Which cousin is it this time?"
Chen Tang, "..."
A sour smell hit me in the face.
He knew everything she said to Shen Ran. When did this person come?
And this sour remark feels like something I've heard before.
Just when Shen Tang was wondering when she heard it, the man stretched out his long arms, took her into his arms, and interrupted her with gritted teeth, "I'm talking to you, and you can be distracted in front of me?!"
He had never seen a woman like this before, and he was so angry that he wanted to strangle her to death.
She kept saying thank you to him, but he just asked for a purse and wanted her to embroider a belt for her cousin first. Did she have to give him the birthday gift she prepared herself? !
Why does this man hug her all the time? Shen Tang blushed and pressed against his chest, "The belt is not embroidered for my cousin."
"Which wild man was that embroidered for?" The man's eyes were blazing with fire.
“…”
I've never seen anyone scold himself like this.
Chen Tang laughed. The man used his arms to push Chen Tang closer to him. Chen Tang's ears turned red. "Embroidered for you."
man,"……"
The man's anger disappeared from under his mask. "For me?"
Chen Tang looked up at him and said, "You helped me so much, it would be too simple to just embroider a purse, so I embroidered this belt, but my third sister found out. I couldn't tell the truth, so I could only use my cousin to perfunctorily deal with her."
I didn't expect that he would hear it and believe it.
"Can you let me go?"
The man was wearing a mask, so the expression on his face couldn't be seen, but his ears turned red and he let go of Shen Tang.
Chen Tang looked at him and asked, "How did you convince King Jingyang to help you?"
The man's arm moved, and Chen Tang pressed close to him again. His breath sprayed on her brow, hot and scorching, "Don't you doubt that I am the prince of Jingyang?"
Chen Tang said, "It's impossible, why should I doubt it?"
The man asked, "Are you so sure?"
The relationship between Prince Xie Guimo of Jingyang and Prince Jingyang was not very good. She had been in the Prince Jingyang's mansion for four years. How could she not know that?
If he was Xie Guimo, then why didn't he tell her in his previous life?
She was so sure.
But she couldn't say these words, Shen Tang looked up at the man, "So you are?"
The man looked at Chen Tang, making Chen Tang dare not look at him, and the man said, "You don't want me to be him."
Chen Tang felt that this sounded a bit strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange about it. She was just curious about how he convinced Prince Jingyang, but he turned the topic to the Prince of Jingyang. He seemed to be particularly concerned about the Prince of Jingyang, but what she feared most was mentioning the Prince of Jingyang.
Curiosity kills the cat. Isn't it enough for the other person to just do what he promised her? As for how to do it, why should she ask so much about it?
Chen Tang said, "It takes a while to embroider the belt. I will try to finish it for you before the birthday banquet for the old lady at Duke Wen's Mansion."
The man's eyes moved from the belt in the embroidery basket that he had disliked dozens of times to the waistband, "I also want a purse."
"...Do you really have to have the purse?" Chen Tang blurted out.
The man looked at Chen Tang, "You really don't want to embroider a purse for me."
Chen Tang, "......!!!"
Who the hell is this bastard?
She didn't embroider purses, but instead embroidered a belt for him which was ten times more difficult. He couldn't detect the sincerity of her thanks, but he could keenly sense that she was unwilling to embroider a purse for him.
Now that she said this, if she didn't embroider it, it really meant that she didn't want to embroider a purse for him.
Chen Tang said, "It doesn't take much effort to embroider a purse, I'll embroider it for you."
Although she was resisting in her heart, she was on guard in this life and would never give anyone the chance to tamper with her purse. Besides, Chen Xi and the Second Madam didn't even know the man existed, so she couldn't be afraid of the rope after being bitten once.
Seeing that Chen Tang agreed quite readily, the man's expression finally eased up, and Chen Tang asked, "What do you want to see me about?"
The man said, "I'm here to urge you to embroider your purse."
Chen Tang, "..."
How free is this person?
Given his status, is he a person short of money?
I'm afraid that just one word from him would drown him in his wallet.
Chen Tang said, "Then I will embroider a purse for you first."
The man said, "Embroider the belt first."
Chen Tang, "..."
Okay.
I'll embroider whatever you say I want to embroider first.
Thinking that someone wanted a purse, she took the initiative to change it into a belt, and finally had to embroider the purse. Is there anyone who is more willing to suffer than her?
The man saved her again and again, and except for being a little jealous, he almost always granted her requests. She was willing to embroider an extra belt for him.
However, no matter how hard Chen Tang tried, she still couldn't finish embroidering the belt before the birthday banquet for the old lady in Duke Wen's mansion. If she had been given another half day, it would have been fine. She could only wait until after the birthday banquet to continue embroidering.
As they had to go to Duke Wen's mansion to celebrate his birthday tomorrow, Chen Tang yawned, put the embroidery basket on the small table beside the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, Chen Tang woke up, washed and dressed, ate some breakfast, and went to Songhe Hall.
When she arrived, the Second Madam and Shen Xi were all there. Shen Xi was acting coquettishly to the old lady, "Grandma, please let me go to Duke Wen's mansion as well."
The old lady said, "If you go to Duke Wen's mansion to celebrate his birthday, it would be too much to bring your second and third sisters. How can you bring three people?"
"I didn't go to Concubine Su's birthday party," Shen Xi said aggrievedly.
The Third Madam took Chen Tang and Shen Luo to Concubine Su's birthday party, but Chen Ran didn't go either. This was clearly telling Chen Tang not to go, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
It's not that the old lady didn't want Shen Xian to go, it's that Shen Xian's complexion hasn't recovered yet. Even if Shen Tang didn't go, the old lady wouldn't let her go.
Chen Tang smiled and said, "Birthday banquets are all pretty much the same, let's let Big Sister go today, there should be a lot of people who want to see Big Sister dance with a sword."
Just one sentence dispelled Shen Xi's idea of going to Duke Wen's mansion.
She was just there to join in the fun, not to embarrass herself!
Thinking that it was Chen Tang who put her on the pedestal, Chen Xi's eyes were filled with coldness, and she completely forgot how she had brought the trouble to Chen Tang in the first place, and wanted to embarrass her in public.
The second wife said, "The eldest lady's body has not fully recovered yet, so she can't dance with the sword. Let's go next time."
Chen Xi no longer insisted on going. She pulled her embroidered handkerchief, her unhappiness clearly written on her face.
After the maid reported that the carriage was ready, the second wife took Shen Tang and Shen Ran out of the house.
The Second Madam had just been frightened by the horse and didn't dare to ride in the carriage again. There was a sedan chair parked outside the door. Shen Tang and Shen Luo were riding in the carriage together because the horse was frightened. Shen Ran didn't dare to ride in the same carriage with Shen Tang. They both took their maids to ride in the carriage.
This arrangement was exactly what Shen Tang wanted, and Ginkgo was also happy.
