Chapter 759: His Thoughts Are Hard to Understand (Part 1)
"Mother?"
A gentle call woke Aunt Xue from her trance. She subconsciously turned her head to look at her daughter beside her, only to see Baochai frowning and looking at the plate in front of her.
Aunt Xue looked down again and saw a large piece of shiny venison on the plate with a half-circle missing from it, obviously having been bitten by her.
At that moment, Aunt Xue's stomach began to churn.
Ever since her husband passed away twelve years ago, she rarely ate meat, let alone such greasy and fatty meat?
"Mother, you are such a fool. How can you digest such greasy food in this weather?"
Baochai complained half-heartedly and handed over a cup of tea. Aunt Xue quickly snatched it and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did she feel better.
Li Wan, who was sitting opposite, saw the interaction between the mother and daughter, and couldn't help but become secretly alert.
Those unorthodox words spoken last night obviously had a significant impact on Aunt Xue.
Although this was Li Wan's original goal, Aunt Xue was so distracted that if she was interrogated about the truth too early, wouldn't that be counterproductive?
No way!
We must speed up the progress!
Otherwise, when she returns to Rongguo Mansion and faces her mother-in-law, it will be even more difficult for Aunt Xue to keep her mouth shut.
But adultery is not a big carrot that can be found by simply pulling it out of the ground.
Even if both parties are interested, it still takes time for fate to come together and for things to work out naturally.
not to mention……
I haven't been able to contact Sun Erlang yet, so it's hard to say what his rules are.
Alas~
Li Wan sighed dejectedly, picked up her chopsticks, picked out a piece of taro the size of a peanut from the pile of venison, filtered out the oil stains in the sugar water, put it in her mouth and chewed it carefully.
The taste of this dish, Lipu taro and venison, is impeccable, but unfortunately it lacks some refinement.
If it were in the Rongguo Mansion, the cooks would definitely take out half of the taro, carve it into a platter and place it on the table, so as to avoid the female guests who are afraid of greasy food.
"sister in law."
At this time, Shi Xiangyun, who was standing by, bent her elbow and gently touched her sleeve, whispering, "We won't be back until the afternoon anyway, so why don't we start the club in the plum garden? Xiangling has been thinking about our poetry club for a long time, but it's always been a coincidence. Today should let her fulfill her wish!"
At this time, how could Li Wan still have the mind to manage the poetry club?
He was about to refuse subconsciously, but suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. He pretended to be embarrassed and said hesitantly: "I originally said that I wanted to go to Ruan Rong to see her collection of Liu Gongquan's authentic works... Well, if you want to go, go ahead. I will ask my second sister to be the host for once."
When Shi Xiangyun heard this, she quickly made a gesture to keep quiet, glanced across and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't let Sister Tanchun hear what you said, otherwise the poetry club will definitely not be able to start today!"
The four young ladies in the Jia family each have their own hobbies. Among them, Jia Tanchun likes calligraphy the most. If she heard that there was an authentic work of Liu Gongquan, she would probably immediately forget about the poetry club.
Seeing Shi Xiangyun's thief-like appearance, Li Wan couldn't help but shake her head and laugh. Then she quietly shifted her gaze to the mother and daughter of the Xue family.
The most outstanding people in this poetry club are Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai. Now that they are going to set up a club, even if they want to refuse, others will definitely not allow it.
In this way, Aunt Xue was left alone again, which was convenient for Li Wan to maneuver.
Let’s not talk about what Li Wan was thinking.
However, Shi Xiangyun was always quick-tempered and when she heard Li Wan refused to go, she immediately turned the tables and instigated Jia Yingchun to host a party in the Plum Garden, inviting all the sisters to drink plum wine and recite poems.
When Jia Tanchun and Xue Baoqin heard about the plan to start a society, they both applauded.
They discussed it one after another and directly decided the rules, without giving Jia Yingchun any chance to refuse.
After this matter was finalized, how could the young ones sit still?
After struggling to eat a few mouthfuls of rice, he led everyone to the plum garden.
Although Ruan Rong was not good at this, she loved to join in the fun, so she asked You Erjie to stay behind and arrange the calligraphy appreciation.
In a flash, only Aunt Xue, Li Wan and You Erjie were left in the room.
Li Wan immediately stepped forward, took Aunt Xue's arm, and said with a smile: "Aunt, what's the point of staying here alone? Why don't you go over and broaden your horizons?"
Aunt Xue was about to refuse, but she was pulled to the door by her husband. With You Erjie beside her also echoing her, she followed her out of the courtyard in a daze.
However, when the cold wind outside blew, Aunt Xue finally woke up.
If I go there, won’t I run into Sun Shaozong again?
I regretted it so much at the moment, but I couldn't find a reason to turn back, so I could only move forward slowly, one step at a time.
Li Wan knew that she was nervous and was afraid that if she urged her too hastily it would backfire, so she deliberately fell behind and chatted with You Erjie about this and that, ignoring her.
"Oh, by the way, when I was about to leave the house the other day, I saw your sister. She brought her child with her and said she was going to Qixia Temple to burn incense."
"My third sister and I were originally going to go too."
Speaking of this, You Erjie was somewhat helpless: "Who would have thought that our master would be faced with such a thing at this moment."
Yushi's intention to burn incense and fulfill a vow was fake; her real purpose was to renew their past relationship and let the child see his father.
And You Erjie also wanted to take advantage of this favorable situation to have a child.
Who would have thought that even though they had prepared the "shield", something went wrong with Sun Shaozong and they had to cancel the scheduled trip.
As they were talking, they arrived at the courtyard of the second house.
Aunt Xue's plump body was becoming increasingly sluggish. Even You Erjie couldn't bear to look at her. She couldn't help but look past her and ask the gatekeeper, "Is the Second Master at home?"
The old woman shook her head and said, "After she went out with Uncle Bao this morning, she never came back."
Hearing this, Aunt Xue felt her body lighten up suddenly. She thought that if she could finish reading it sooner, she could avoid the embarrassment. So she changed her previous hesitation and stepped over the threshold.
If he couldn't find a suitable reason, he would have urged her to do so.
But Youshi led the two of them into the main room and relayed Ruanrong's intention Furong then took out the key and carefully took out a long box from the cupboard.
You Erjie took it in her hand, slowly pulled out the lid, pinched the two ends of the scroll, and placed it on the table tremblingly. She wiped her forehead with her backhand and explained with a smile: "It's not that we are pretentious. I heard from Second Master that this thing was obtained from the Wuxi barbarians. Those barbarians only knew that it was a treasure, but they didn't know how to preserve it."
"Besides, the mountain is very humid, and it was already moldy when the second master got it."
"It took a lot of effort to fix it later, but it's still very brittle - if not, the Second Master would have left it in Xiangling's room and let her copy it at will."
Li Wan heard You Erjie's serious words and knew that she was afraid of damaging the calligraphy and couldn't bear the consequences, so she covered her mouth and said, "According to what you said, today we are really honored - you can spread it out carefully, and we can just look at it and not touch it, okay?"
You Erjie smiled awkwardly, and then spread out the copy of calligraphy with great care.
Sure enough, as soon as the calligraphy was unfolded, a musty smell came out.
Li Wan didn't notice anything, but Aunt Xue turned sideways in a hurry and sneezed twice. Her towering breasts trembled and their breasts were so big that even a thick cloak could not hide them.
Generally speaking, all three of them have plump figures, but if you look closely, they each have their own strengths.
You Erjie's advantage is her height and well-proportioned figure; Li Wan's strengths are her plump buttocks and slender waist; as for Aunt Xue, she was born with fair skin and snow-white skin, and she is the most voluptuous and beautiful, which makes people want to touch her and fondle her.
Aunt Xue sneezed twice in a row, and her chest felt heavy and stuffy. She quickly covered her chest and rubbed her nose, shaking her head repeatedly: "I'm afraid I can't enjoy this treasure. Anyway, I can't read a few words. You guys take care of yourselves. I'll go to the outer room to hide."
Having said that, he went into the hall by himself.
You Erjie was immediately in a dilemma upon seeing this, not knowing whether she should go over and serve or stay here to support.
Li Wan burst out laughing, gently pushed her, and urged her, "Go and get some tea and snacks for Auntie, so that I can admire Mr. Liu's character alone."
After she said this, Furong also hurriedly followed her out.
Only Suyun received her signal and stayed without saying anything.
When only the master and the servant were left in the room, Li Wan immediately ordered, "Go and get the writing brush, inkstone, and paper on the table so that I can also try to imitate them ."
But when Suyun brought the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Li Wan didn't even look at the calligraphy. She wrote a line of small characters at a rapid speed, tore it off, crumpled it into a ball, and stuffed it into Suyun's hand.
"If that enemy comes back later, find a chance to give him this note!"
