Chapter 477 Crazy
The rain and fog lasted for a whole day, and not only did it not stop the next day, but it turned into a rain curtain instead.
After Sun Shaozong had dealt with many trivial matters early in the morning, he carried his special raincoat all the way to the corner gate of the front yard, and was about to hang the raincoat on the saddlebag behind the carriage so that he could order Zhang Cheng to take it at any time.
Who would have thought that at this moment, a group of people suddenly came in a line, with Xiu Ju leading the way with a flower umbrella in her hand, followed by Yuanyang and Caixia, who were flanking Li Wan and her son on the left and right, and behind them were Suyun and other maids and servants from the Rongguo Mansion.
Seeing that it was too late to avoid suspicion, Sun Shaozong threw the raincoat to Zhang Cheng to deal with, and went to greet Li Wan openly. Without waiting for Li Wan to get close, he bowed and said, "Sister-in-law Zhu has come here with great difficulty, why don't you stay for a few more days and accompany my sister-in-law to relieve her boredom?"
Seeing his majestic figure from afar, Li Wan's heart was already restless, as if there was a charcoal fire in the furnace for making steel. She wished she could melt the rough iron ingot into her heart immediately and refine it in a hot manner.
When Li Wan heard Sun Shaozong shout "sister-in-law", she couldn't help but think of the past love. For a moment, her delicate body, which had tasted the sweetness of the marrow, was instantly "smooth" to the bones.
Fortunately, she was still holding Jia Lan's little hand at this time, and with her son as a stabilizing force, she did not release the surging spring desire.
She took a few steps forward and returned the greeting calmly, "To be honest with Uncle Sun, Yu Hanlin assigned a lot of homework yesterday, and I don't have all the books involved at home, so I wanted to buy them as soon as possible to avoid delaying Brother Lan's homework."
At this time, Jia Lan also stepped forward obediently and said respectfully, "Lan'er greets the teacher."
How sharp are Sun Shaozong’s eyes?
He had seen the blush on Li Wan's face early in the morning, and was afraid that if he said something to her casually, he would accidentally reveal his true identity, so he bent down and asked with a smile, "What did Brother Lan learn yesterday?"
"In reply to Master, the teacher mainly talked about the principle of learning knowledge and progressing step by step yesterday. He also pointed out a few elementary textbooks and asked Lan'er to go back and study them carefully one by one."
Jia Lan finished his reply like a little adult, then suddenly raised his head and smiled, "Although the master taught me the teachings of the sages, I will not fall behind in the boxing that Master has taught me - because in the future I want to be a good official who is proficient in both civil and military affairs, just like Master!"
This kid is really smart!
Sun Shaozong laughed, rubbed his little head with his hand, and said, "Your second uncle will invite me to visit you in a few days. How about my master teach you some other martial arts?"
Jia Lan responded obediently. Li Wan, who was standing beside him, was dazzled and couldn't help but blurt out, "Then in two days, I will keep Brother Lan at home and wait for Erlang to come."
this……
Did she misunderstand something?
Forget it, now is not the time to explain, I'll just deal with it when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong observed the etiquette and sent the mother and son out the door. When he turned around and was about to get in the car to go out, he saw a person kneeling in front of the car.
Sun Shaozong frowned and looked, only to see that the woman was none other than Caixia, the head maidservant who used to be by Lady Wang's side. It was said that she had always been cautious in her words and actions since she came to the Sun family. She was neither as distant as Qingwen, nor as overbearing as Yuanyang. So what was going on today?
"Caixia, you...what are you doing!?"
Yuanyang, who was standing nearby, was also surprised when she saw this, and went forward to help Caixia up, but Caixia shook her off and hit her head in the shallow water, splashing water everywhere.
When she raised her head again, there was already a bruise on her forehead.
Caixia ignored him and looked up to beg, "Please have mercy, Master, and take me with you to see Master Bao!"
Tsk~
Sun Shaozong frowned even more. Qingwen was fine, but didn't Caixia give her heart to Huan Lao San? Why did she also want to see Jia Baoyu?
Did he suddenly change his taste and stop being a pedophile?
Besides, didn't Jia Baoyu come here a few days ago? He even stayed in Jia Yingchun's room for half a day . What could he not say in one breath at that time? Why did he have to come to me later to ask for help?
But none of this matters. What matters is that Caixia's actions have exceeded the duties of a servant and violated the rules of the mansion!
Therefore, Sun Shaozong frowned and sneered, "I don't even bother to know why you want to see Baoyu. I just want to ask you, are you a member of my Sun family or a servant of Rongguo Mansion?! Do you think that you can be so presumptuous in my house just because you served Madam Wang for a few days?!"
Ever since he became the governor and started to try cases in court, Sun Shaozong's official power and authority have been growing day by day. At this moment, he delivered a thunderous sentence, which frightened Caixia so much that her face turned pale.
Plop~
Yuanyang, who was standing by, also knelt down hurriedly, saying anxiously, "She was just confused for a moment, and she is definitely not a rebellious or rude person. Please calm down, Second Master. I will take her to see the First Madam and punish her according to the family rules!"
Although she and Caixia had an ordinary relationship, they came from the Rongguo Mansion together after all, and they both served in Jia Yingchun's room, so she couldn't just stand by and watch.
However, while pleading for mercy, she couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart. Caixia had once dared to take the risk of secretly delivering a message to Aunt Zhao on behalf of Jia Huan in Rongguo Mansion. How come she was still stubborn after being sent to Sun Mansion?
Then Sun Shaozong shook his head and said, "There's no need to alarm the first wife. Let her go find the one who leads the Ten Whips Family Law in Zhao Zhongji's house and temporarily transfer her out."
The whip is fine, but being transferred from my wife to outside is a world of difference.
Moreover, according to the rules of ordinary families, it seemed unreasonable for Sun Shaozong, as a brother-in-law, to directly deal with the maid in his sister-in-law's room.
Therefore, Yuanyang's throat moved slightly, intending to speak a few words for Caixia, but Caixia knocked her head to the ground again and said sadly: "I know I was wrong, you can punish me however you want! But I still ask you to have mercy on me, and persuade Bao Erye. After all, he and Sanye are brothers, and even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected!"
The feeling is still for Huan Lao San!
Sun Shaozong was speechless. It seemed that pedophilia was indeed hopeless.
He was too lazy to talk nonsense with Caixia, so he winked at the maids who came to see the guests off and ordered, "Take her away and punish her."
Xiu Ju immediately brought people forward, put her hands on Caixia's shoulders and pressed her down.
It was not until Caixia and the others disappeared behind the screen that Sun Shaozong's eyes fell on Yuanyang. He raised his chin and said, "Tell me, what's wrong with her?"
"Reporting to the Second Master."
Yuanyang knew that Caixia was doomed this time, but she still tried her best to smooth things over for her, saying, "In fact, she is also deeply loyal..."
“Get to the point!”
Unexpectedly, he was interrupted rudely by Sun Shaozong just as he started.
Yuanyang paused for a moment, looking at Sun Shaozong's stern expression and thinking about her recent reputation in the mansion, she felt a little aggrieved, but since Sun Shaozong asked, she had no choice but to tell him the whole story.
It turned out that this matter was something Ping'er had casually mentioned when she came to deliver something that day.
At that time, she and Sun Shaozong had just had sex on the swing and were exhausted both physically and mentally. Caixia happened to come over and asked about the latest situation in Rongguo Mansion. Without giving it much thought, she told her everything.
Among them, of course, we have to mention Huan Lao San, the person Caixia cares about the most.
Although Aunt Zhao went to the south of the Yangtze River with Jia Zheng to enjoy herself, her two children were left in the capital. Jia Tanchun was fine, as she was a very insightful person, and Jia Baoyu was always there to protect her.
But Huan Lao San completely lost his protection.
Although Mrs. Wang could not do such a thing as killing the illegitimate son to vent her anger, how difficult would it be for her to ruin his future?
He was indulged in all kinds of nonsense every day, and within a few days, the little guy became a regular customer of gambling dens - it was said that he even went to brothels to have a look.
Caixia was worried and unable to sleep or eat after hearing the news, which led to what happened today.
"For such a thing, she is lucky enough to ask me for help."
Hearing this, Sun Shaozong became even more disdainful. Although Mrs. Wang's tactics of domestic fighting were a bit despicable, they seemed much more merciful compared to Aunt Zhao's method of poisoning people.
Of course, given Jia Baoyu's soft personality, if he really knew the truth, he might not agree with Mrs. Wang's approach - but Sun Shaozong was not blinded by the phlegm, so how could he risk offending Mrs. Wang and make the matter clear to Jia Baoyu?
With a disdainful snort, seeing Yuanyang still kneeling in the puddle, her skirt soaked and discolored, Sun Shaozong ordered again: "Get up, this matter has nothing to do with you. If the eldest wife asks, just tell the truth."
The mandarin duck responded obediently and then got up from the ground.
But firstly, he had been kneeling for so long that his legs felt numb. Secondly, there was water on the bluestone slab, which made it very slippery.
Therefore, when Yuanyang stood up, he failed to stand firmly and his feet slipped. He screamed "Ouch" and fell forward, crashing into Sun Shaozong's arms.
"Be careful."
Sun Shaozong put his arms around her waist and straightened her delicate body. Without even looking at her blushing face, he got into the carriage and told Zhang Cheng to whip the horse and drive away.
Yuanyang watched the carriage go away, and seeing that no one was around to see her, she suddenly blushed and spat, whispering, "You pretend to be a gentleman, but you still take advantage of others secretly."
As she spoke, the pair of fair little hands subconsciously protected the perky buttocks behind her.
However, the shame in the scolding was greater than the annoyance, just like the inexplicable resentment when Jia She harassed him...
Let me explain this on two sides.
Sun Shaozong was twirling his fingers in the car, recalling the touch he had just felt. He secretly praised the mandarin duck for being fair-skinned but firm and toned, not like a pampered girl at all. Perhaps...
Having many lustful thoughts in his mind along the way, when he saw that he had obtained Xue's residence on Zijin Street, Sun Shaozong had to calm down for a while before he got off the carriage as if nothing had happened.
"Second brother."
Liu Xianglian had arrived a long time ago, but he had made an appointment to meet Sun Shaozong in front of Xue's house, so he patiently spent time in the teahouse opposite. At this time, seeing Sun Shaozong getting off the carriage, he immediately ran up to him like a fly, and couldn't wait to say: "Come on, let's take a look at that big dung beetle and see what it looks like!"
This is gloating.
Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes at him speechlessly and scolded him, "Don't be so harsh when you see him later - don't forget that Brother Xue will come to make trouble for you when you get married in a few days, and then you can take revenge for your grudges."
After his reminder, Liu Xianglian quickly restrained himself a lot.
When the two of them arrived at the door side by side, the housekeeper in the mansion had already received the news and rushed out to greet them. Knowing the relationship between Xue Pan and the two of them, he simply did not lead them to the front hall, but took them directly to the back house.
At this time, the pavilions and towers that had been ravaged by the elephants had naturally been repaired long ago, and they were even more magnificent than before, especially after being moistened by the rain, making them look even more luxurious.
However, according to what Sun Shaozong knew, the Xue family's business had been gradually shrinking in the past few years, and the Rongguo Mansion had borrowed hundreds of thousands of taels of capital. Although it could not be said to be a hollow big mansion at the moment, its funds were becoming increasingly tight.
The best plan for now is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and revitalize the family business. However, the Xue family has spent a lot of money on this kind of face-saving project - thinking about the young man he met in Jinmen Prefecture a few days ago, the difference between them is really like heaven and earth.
However, when he saw Xue Pan's courtyard not far ahead, Sun Shaozong suddenly said "Huh", frowned and stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Liu Xianglian asked curiously, "Brother, why don't you move forward?"
Sun Shaozong ignored him and turned to ask the Xue family's steward, "Could it be that Brother Xue has really been infected with some disease? Otherwise, with his personality, he should have come out to greet him long ago."
Liu Xianglian suddenly realized that when the two of them entered the door just now, a doorman had already rushed in to report. According to Xue Pan's personality, he should have been waiting halfway when he knew that Sun Erge and he were coming. How come he didn't make any movement when he arrived at the door?
So he hurriedly asked about Xue Pan's condition.
The steward smiled bitterly and said, "I am not happy with you two. After our master was attacked by someone that day, he got a bowel disease when he came back. He has been ill for several days. If he had not gotten better now, I would not dare to bring you two to meet him."
The so-called intestinal disease is leprosy, which was also considered a kind of plague in ancient times. Therefore, unless the condition has improved, one would not dare to meet outsiders.
When Liu Xianglian heard that Xue Pan had gotten better, he was relieved. Then he couldn't help but joked, "Old Xue really has an indissoluble bond with toilets."
Sun Shaozong glared at him, which made him stop and then he walked into the courtyard.
"Oh~ It turns out that Lord Sun and Master Liu have arrived. I was wondering why the magpie was chirping so loudly!"
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wang coming towards him in a gorgeous outfit, with a pair of big watery eyes staring straight at Liu Xianglian.
This woman is really...
Sun Shaozong was just wondering what to say to her when he heard Xue Pan yelling in a weak voice, "Are you flirting? Hurry up and invite my second brother and Brother Liu in!"
Wang curled her lips and then twisted her slender waist to lead the two people in.
