Volume Two

2.56 My concubine’s name is Shuying
"Madam?" After a while, Zhou Yang went straight into the guest room while thinking about it. He stayed here last time, so he was familiar with it. After entering the door, he was shocked to find a snow-white figure in the living room. It was Mrs.

"It's okay, brother Zhou. You're welcome." Mrs. Xue stood up gently. It was only then that Zhou Yang realized that she was the only one in the courtyard, without even a servant. "I came here just to ask if you are used to living here. If there is anything inappropriate, it’s still not too late to relocate it.”

"It's already very good!" Zhou Yang quickly clasped his fists in thanks, "Thank you madam for your concern!"

"That's good." Mrs. Xue nodded with a smile, but the laughter sounded very forced, "I have already informed the servants to deliver dinner to the people brought by Brother Zhou, and I brought it here myself. I just have one more thing to ask, I just had a long discussion with you, can you tell me what I said?"

"This -" Zhou Yang frowned, but didn't know how to reply. It was also because dusk was falling and there were no lights in the living room, which caused poor visibility. His attention was attracted by Mrs. Xue at the beginning, and only then did he notice that the dining table There are already dishes on it, four bowls, a wine bottle, a large plate in the middle, and a set of cutlery.

"What, isn't it convenient?" Mrs. Xue turned around gently, bent down and lit the candlesticks on the table one by one, showing the wonderful curves. The entire living room quickly lit up, illuminating her miserable beauty. Looking at her face and her pure white body, for some reason, Zhou Yang's mind always flashed back to that flawless white body when he sent her back to her room alone.

"Madam, please forgive me!" He quickly shook his head to drive away the discordant scene in his heart. Zhou Yang lowered his head slightly to hide his embarrassment, "Since Mr. Xue arranged for Madam to go out, naturally he doesn't want to."

"So it's really the Wang family?" Zhou Yang was stunned by Mrs. There were some clues, but the master always said that there was no result, but he still discussed with Zhang Dehui and his men every day. Obviously he didn't want me to know, so it could only be that these news would be related to me. In addition to the affairs of the Wang family, there were also What can there be?"

"Since Madam has guessed it, I won't hide it anymore." Zhou Yang pondered for a moment, and then repeated the analysis about the Wang family just now, but did not mention that Wang Ziteng was likely to be promoted. "Xue Gong did not intend to hide it, but he did not want to Let Madam be in trouble, the Wang family will end up"

"It's my natal family." Mrs. Xue barely controlled her emotions, wiped the corners of her eyes with her slender fingers and said with a smile, "Brother Zhou, there is no need to be embarrassed. It's because I asked too many questions, and I happened to be tired all day, so why not eat first?" Let’s have some rest after dinner, and please forgive me, Brother Zhou, because I was in a hurry and this meal is a bit crude.”

"Don't dare!" Zhou Yang glanced at the dishes and sighed secretly, "Zhumen's wine and meat stink." The four large bowls and plates were exactly small fish and fried peanuts. The whole one was still steaming after being torn into pieces. Roasted chicken, plus a large bowl of hot and fragrant mutton soup and a large plate of pancakes, it was still called "simple". He couldn't help but think of the table with four cold and four hot side dishes and ten hot and cold side dishes when he came last time. Six main dishes and two large so-called "meal".

"Okay, it's better not to be polite anymore." Mrs. Rushing is the most exhausting, and there are many things that will happen next. If Brother Zhou doesn't recover well, I will die forever."

"Mrs. Xue is too polite." Zhou Yang frowned, looked around and found that there were no other servants. Judging from Mrs. Just rest, you can afford it at a young age, and it won’t hurt your body.”

"That's good." Mrs. Xue nodded with a smile, but didn't seem to hear anything. Then she came up and pressed Zhou Yang's shoulders to "help" him sit down. She poured the mutton soup and put it away herself, and even handed the chopsticks to Zhou Yang. In his hand, "Let's eat, if you don't eat the food, it will be cold."

"Thank you, madam!" Zhou Yang said reluctantly, fearing that she would make any bigger moves, so he simply picked up the soup bowl and wolfed it down. He usually had a big appetite when practicing martial arts, and he had a hard time and lack of supplements. As for the short tea time, there was no food left on the table, and even a pot and a half kilogram of old wine was drank cleanly.

"Look at you, you're so tired and you're still trying to be brave." Mrs. Xue didn't say anything during the whole process. She just sat silently watching him eat. After seeing him finish eating, she immediately got up and came over, put away the tableware and put it aside, pointing to the bedroom. The door said, "Hurry up and wash up. You should have showered and changed clothes during the journey, but I see that you are very tired, so I have to do it in a hurry."

"Uh?" Zhou Yang turned his head stupidly and found that the washbasin stand had been placed in the bedroom. Not only had a basin of water been placed, but also towels, soap locust and even green salt and willow branches for mouthwash were placed. He could only stand up quickly and said, "Ma'am, why are you doing this? I'm just - huh?" Probably because he moved too much when he stood up, he only felt his mind was blurry and his body shook involuntarily. He just thought it was hypoglycemia and ignored it. It was only when he was about to say thank you that he realized that the scene in front of him was a little too blurry, and it was obviously not something that could be explained by regular hypoglycemia.

"Okay, brother Zhou, you know you are trying to be brave. Have you drunk too much? You should have a good rest." Mrs. Xue smiled slightly and stood up to go out. When Zhou Yang watched her go out, he found that she had walked to the door of the courtyard and closed the door. , bolted the door again, and then realized something was wrong, but the fuzzy feeling in his mind prevented him from doing anything.

The last memory was of the graceful figure in plain white entering the guest room, closing the door, and helping him into the bedroom. The plain white on her body fell off in front of his eyes, leaving only the almost flawless attire. Snow white.

The next morning, after a whole night of grooming, Zhou Yang opened his eyes refreshed. The first thing he felt was the still clear fragrance around him, and the pretty face looking at each other with a smile. Mrs. Xue did not show any shyness. , only revealing the satisfaction after a night of entanglement, which actually made him somewhat at a loss for what to say.

"Is there something wrong with the food?" After just looking at each other for a moment, Zhou Yang still felt that he should ask clearly, "Why?"

"There is no food, but the pot of wine is the 20-year-old Zhuangyuan Red. It is the most refreshing and fragrant. It has great staying power and comes quickly." Mrs. Xue said softly, "You don't need to be burdened. I just want to Let me tell you, last night’s experience gave me a feeling I’ve never had before, and I just feel like my previous 30 years have all been in vain.”

"You -" Zhou Yang had a strange expression, and the phrase "I slept with you for two years, I might as well have had a good two nights with my senior brother" repeated in his mind, "I have no dissatisfaction with what happened last night. After all, we were both sober afterwards. , we are very satisfied with each other, I just want to ask you, why is this so?"

"You know, when the master was just assassinated, I immediately arranged for someone to retrieve Pan'er. I just hoped that he could carry him." Mrs. He understood that he had to take good care of me and Bao Yatou from now on, and it would be almost useless in other aspects. Even after Zhang Dehui understood it, he was still confused, so much so that the news of the assassination was still hidden from their brothers and sisters.

After thinking about it all night, the master finally decided to find you, and then sent Zhang Lu to the capital. Fortunately, you came not too late, and everything was still in time. Since I guessed that the Wang family was behind this , naturally I don’t dare to ask any more questions, I just hope you don’t have any misunderstanding about me. "

"You should know that since I was called back by Mr. Xue, from now on we will-well!" Zhou Yang was silent for a moment before answering, but Mrs. He will definitely enter an official career in the future and will not be able to focus on the affairs of the Xue family.

I also thought about it on the way, and planned to cooperate with Mr. Xue after Mr. Xue left, in order to give up some of the benefits, plus the Chen family's deterrence, to keep the main body of your business. I will definitely want some benefits, but that It will be after I am appointed an official in the future. At any time, everything belonging to the Xue family belongs to Brother Wenlong. "

"My master has confirmed the Wang family's handiwork and asked you to come back to make arrangements. He will never keep me here. Although I haven't had any involvement in the family's business these years, I still know a lot." After a moment of silence, Mrs. Xue said softly. He raised his head and said, "If it is to be handed over to Wen Long, and there are only concubines and treasure girls at home, then one person will naturally need to bear it first and hand it over later; but now that I have called you here first, I will be redundant."

"Where's Baochai?" Zhou Yang's expression was complicated. Of course he understood the meaning of these words. Xue Tu called him here as the "Minister of Guan Ming". He must be worried that Mrs. It's very reasonable; it would be pure nonsense to say that he was not tempted at all, but no matter what era it was in, this kind of thing was too taboo. "Why haven't I seen her since I arrived?"

"She has been suffering a lot these days." Mrs. I will arrange it myself - also, my maiden name is Shuying, Wang Shuying."
