Chapter 690 Dancing Princess vs. East Factory Admiral 50
Although she was speaking for Shen Lang, her tone naturally revealed her disparagement of the eunuch.
Hearing this, Quan Jiu's originally lazy smile faded, and his expression turned serious and indifferent:
"I've said this once, and that's enough. If you say it a second time, I won't punish you. You can go find the nanny and get the money to leave the palace."
She didn't care about the eunuch, but Shen Lang did.
Cuizhu showed fear on her face and immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Miss, I know I am wrong, please don't leave me..."
Quan Jiu didn't look at her, and spoke slowly and calmly:
"Cuizhu, I know you look down on eunuchs from the bottom of your heart. I don't blame you, because it's not just you. Everyone in this world feels the same way. They think eunuchs are inhumane, unable to have children, and are neither male nor female, and are inherently inferior."
Cuizhu was even more frightened when she heard what she was thinking:
"Miss, I really know I was wrong. From now on, I will never talk about Master Shen again..."
"There are three kinds of unfilial behavior, and having no descendants is the worst. You view eunuchs as a scourge and a monster. I understand. I can't change the world's view of them, but at least in my territory, I don't want anyone to speak rudely to him. Do you understand?"
This is the social atmosphere of the world. Prejudice and discrimination have lasted for thousands of years. She was not arrogant enough to try to change everyone's views on eunuchs, but at least within her ability, she did not want Shen Lang to be hurt.
Tears glistened in Cuizhu's eyes. After hearing her words, she nodded seriously:
"Miss, I'm sorry."
Quan Jiu looked at the crying little girl, sighed in his heart, and rubbed her head:
"Get up."
This cannot be blamed on Cuizhu. The ideas she has been exposed to since she was a child destined her to be unable to accept eunuchs.
Cuizhu stood up, sniffed, and cried in her voice:
"Miss, from now on, no matter who you like, even if he is a lame man, a blind man, or an old man, I will respect him as much as I respect you."
Quan Jiu rolled his eyes: "Old man? In your heart, my taste is so strong?"
Cuizhu started to panic again: "No, that's not what I meant. I'm not very good at speaking, please don't take it to heart..."
Quan Jiu: "Okay, I understand your good intentions."
This maid is good in every way except that she is not very smart.
Cuizhu was relieved to see that she was really not angry.
Quan Jiu said, "Go wash your face. If someone doesn't know, they might think I did something to you."
"I will go right away."
………
Outside the window.
Shen San looked at the man who stood at the door for a long time without responding, and hesitated to speak:
"Sir, are you not going in?"
Chen Lang looked down at the red coral hairpin in his hand, stroking it with his fingertips, his eyes covered with a layer of mist, like a pond in the misty rain.
"Some other time."
………
Quan Jiu was surprised to find that the relationship between Chen Lang and Naituanzi had undergone subtle changes.
In the past, when Chen Lang took Nutella out to play, it was always because she forced him to do so, and he was obviously unwilling. But now, with the tall man holding the child, Nutella became the unwilling one.
"Mr. Shen, please put me down."
The little kid pouted and struggled to get off the ground.
Shen Lang looked at the person in his arms expressionlessly: "Do you want to get off?"
“That’s right!”
“Pah.”
Chen Lang let go without hesitation, and the little girl was caught off guard. She lost her balance and fell on her butt.
Quan Jiu: “…”
All right.
She was overthinking it.
With a look of grievance and accusation on his face, Milk Ball stood up from the ground, touching his buttocks, and tried to accuse him of his evil deeds:
"If you don't get angry, do you think others are fools?"
Shen Lang felt no remorse: "You're not that smart when you get angry."
Milk ball: “…”
Actually, it’s not impossible to change your father.
"Baby, come here."
Quan Jiu walked in and waved at him.
The expression on Naituanzi's face immediately changed from gloomy to bright, revealing a look of joy:
"Why are you here?"
Quan Jiu glanced at the man sitting next to him drinking tea:
"I heard someone invited you out to play, so I naturally wanted to come and see you so that you wouldn't die in a foreign land."
Yes.
This time, it was Chen Lang who took the initiative to find Naituanzi without even telling her in advance.
The little girl's face fell, she touched her butt, and complained decisively:
"He abused me."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lang frowned slightly:
"Things between men should be resolved internally, and don't bring trouble to others."
Naituanzi held Quanjiu's hand. With a backer, he began to speak arrogantly:
"I'm not a man."
Chen Lang remained calm: "A man with a penis is a man."
The little girl instinctively muttered, "You didn't bring your penis..."
Halfway through his words, he regretted it.
Quan Jiu's expression changed slightly, and his first reaction was to look at Shen Lang. He thought he would be furious, but the man remained indifferent and calm.
"Would you like me to take off my pants and examine you?"
The little girl opened her mouth slightly, not understanding what he meant.
Quan Jiu's eyes flickered. He thought he was just being stubborn to save face. After all, he was really exceptionally "calm" that night...
"sorry."
Naituanzi dares to take responsibility for his actions and will apologize if he makes a mistake.
Shen Lang sat upright in the chair, his right hand resting on the armrest, holding a teacup, his eyes swept over him, and he said lightly:
"Not sincere."
Naituanzi blushed slightly: "Then tell me, how can we be sincere?"
………
Half an hour later.
"Why do you want me to pay you for picking up girls?"
Naituanzi was sweating profusely, and his body was covered with bags of all sizes. He even had two clothing bags hanging around his neck, which were full of things that Chen Lang bought for Quan Jiu.
He had clearly agreed to apologize to Chen Lang, but in the end, Chen Lang didn't buy anything for himself.
Shen Lang walked in front, showing no intention of offering help:
"If she's happy, I'm naturally happy."
There is no boasting in these words. They are typical of Shen's style, stating the facts in a straightforward manner.
Quan Jiu was selecting a hairpin. Upon hearing this, her fingertips paused slightly and she turned back to look at him:
"Master Shen, can you please speak properly?"
Don't flirt in front of children.
Shen Lang frowned, seeming to be in a more difficult situation than her: "You won't even let me tell the truth?"
Quan Jiu: “…”
Okay.
As long as he is happy.
After buying a lot of things, Naituanzi's wallet was empty. Seeing this, Chen Lang finally relented and gave in.
"Okay, let's go back."
The three of them were dressed simply and disguised, traveling in a low-key manner.
Chen Lang: "The carriage is parked in the alley, a little far from here, you wait for me here."
Quan Jiu didn't refuse. He said there were too many things and it would be troublesome to carry them all.
"Um."
Chen Lang turned and left. After taking two steps, his arm touched a cold object in his sleeve. He was stunned at first, and then realized that he had forgotten to give the red coral hairpin away.
Thinking of the future owner of the hairpin, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he suddenly turned around in the crowd and looked in her direction.
With just one glance, his deep, dark pupils suddenly shrank into pinholes:
"careful!!"
