After a comfortable bath, her sore limbs finally regained their strength. They were not as weak as before.
Jiang Pengji changed into a simple set of home clothes and knelt in front of the bronze mirror. She let Xunmei and Taxue play with her hair.
Noticing Taxue's hesitation on her left, she could not help but open her eyes. She glanced at her and asked softly, "What's wrong, Xunmei?"
At that moment, Xunmei's gaze fell on her loosened clothes. She could vaguely see the layers of corsets inside.
Xunmei's cheeks were a little flushed after being caught red-handed. She hesitated and bit her lower lip. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's.
"Second Langjun, Xu Ke is still kneeling in the veranda outside the courtyard … I wonder …"
As soon as Xunmei said that, Taxue glared at her. She had no choice but to shut her mouth. She looked worried and timid.
"Hasn't an hour passed? Why is he still kneeling?"
Jiang Pengji frowned. She asked Xu Ke to kneel and reflect for an hour, which was only an hour.
But according to what Xunmei said just now, did it mean that Xu Ke had been kneeling outside for more than four hours? At least four hours?
Taxue snorted. Her hands nimbly tied her long hair into a simple bun. It was a little loose and looked a little casual and lazy.
"Only Xunmei is soft-hearted. Based on Xu Ke's previous actions, it's not too much to make him kneel for a day and a night. What's more, Langjun only asked him to kneel and reflect for an hour. If he doesn't want to get up, who can hold his shoulders and stop him from getting up? "
Like a lit firecracker, Taxue's words carried a strong sense of dissatisfaction and anger.
Jiang Pengji stood up, gathered her clothes, and tightened the outer robe. Her tone was a little comforting.
"I think Taxue should change her name. How can this hot temperament be as cold as ice? His heart was clearly burning with passion. I know you feel unfair for me, but Xu Ke is different. You can't treat him like an ordinary servant. "
Taxue's pretty face was tainted by Jiang Pengji's teasing. She said angrily, "Langjun seems to be enlightened now. You can really say anything. Fortunately, I know Langjun's character. If it were a girl, her soul would have been seduced. "
That sentence could be translated into four words: If I didn't marry, why would I seduce her?
"Alright, alright, alright. I will restrain myself from now on. I will definitely not carelessly seduce a girl's soul."
After Jiang Pengji finished talking, she turned to Xunmei and ordered, "Go and tell Xu Ke to go and rest early. Tomorrow morning, he will follow me to the village for an inspection. "The weather is unpredictable and the humidity is high at night. He has been kneeling for so long. How can can his knees withstand the cold?"
Xunmei was perturbed and uneasy at first, but after hearing Jiang Pengji's instructions, her pale face regained some color.
She knew that Second Langjun was still the same. He was always so gentle and generous.
Taxue scoffed as she watched Xun Mei leave. She was a little disdainful as she muttered softly, "Wishful thinking!"
Based on the hearing of others, they definitely could not hear what she said, but that did not include Jiang Pengji.
She turned her head and asked suspiciously, "How did Xunmei offend you? I see that you two have a good relationship."
Taxue's breathing stagnated. She immediately felt a little awkward and awkward, as if she did not know how to answer her question.
In the end, she simply gave up and twisted her handkerchief. She bit her lip and said, "Langjun is kind and pure, and you've been raised as a man since you were young. How would you know the thoughts of ordinary girls? That Xunmei obviously has other intentions. She's thinking of seeking a higher position. "
"Looking for a higher place?" Jiang Pengji smiled and raised her eyebrows. She lowered her voice and asked curiously, "Are you saying that Xunmei has feelings for Xu Ke?"
Xu Ke was only 17 years old, but in ancient times, he would have been a grown man who could start a family and start a career. He was not bad looking. Even though his face had been tattooed, it did not diminish his beauty. In Jiang Pengji's eyes, he looked even more mature.
Taxue's eyes were a little dazed when she heard her straightforward guess. She seemed to be in disbelief as she patrolled her face back and forth. She was determined to find out something. However, Jiang Pengji's heart was not that easy to pry into. After a while, Taxue gave up.
"What do you mean by having feelings for Xu Ke? You're obviously disloyal. You think that Xu Ke is a rare commodity! Even though Xunmei and I are only Langjun's maidservants, there are different ranks of maidservants. Langjun's situation is special. When Langjun turns 20, his status will be even more different. "
At first, Taxue gritted her teeth angrily. She blushed and skipped over some of the content.
Other than the masters of the Liu residence, only Taxue and Xunmei knew Liu Lanting's true gender.
The two maidservants had been handpicked by Liu She and his second wife. They had been raised since young and were even more particular about their daily necessities than the daughters of wealthy merchants. They were both smart. How could they not know now if they did not know when they were young?
Unless there were some unforeseen circumstances, Liu Lanting's gender would have to be kept a secret. As the two maidservants who knew the truth, their future was clear. When Liu Lanting came of age, they would become her concubines.
If Liu Lanting was a man, it would be a great opportunity for the maidservants. They would become the cream of the crop.
Because of their friendship when they were young, even if he couldn't pamper the harem alone, he would still be able to gain some favor. Not to mention, Liu Lanting was a soft-hearted and kind person. Even if they had to work for the legal wife in the future, they would not be treated coldly.
Unfortunately, no one knew better than them that Liu Lanting was not a man. She was a woman of the same gender as them.
It was normal for Xunmei to have other thoughts. She wanted to find a way out for herself.
Jiang Pengji's mind was sharp. Even if she did not know much about the ancient times, she could make some logical deductions. When she connected the dots between Taxue and Xunmei, her doubts were instantly answered.
She smiled and patted Taxue's hair affectionately. Under Taxue's confused and angry gaze, Jiang Pengji teased, "Xunmei's actions are exactly what you want. Now that she's gone, you will be the only one who can enjoy my love. "
Taxue was speechless.
First, her pretty face blushed, then it turned green with embarrassment. When she realized that Jiang Pengji was only teasing her, she instantly realized that she had been fooled. She was so angry that her eyes were bloodshot. "Langjun, you're so good at teasing people. Am I a petty person in your heart?"
