"I thought that the New Year would be more relaxed. Who knew that it would be even busier than usual," Qu Qing Ju held a thick stack of gift lists from each fu. She rubbed her forehead and put the list to one side, "After these matters are settled, the New Year will be almost over."
"Isn't the New Year a lively and joyous occasion? Naturally there will be more gifts," Mu Jin massaged her shoulders as she urged, "These past few days going to the various wang fu has been tiring. When you go to Xiang Qing Marquis fu tomorrow, you can finally relax."
Qu Qing Ju was very satisfied with Mu Jin's craftsmanship. At this time, her eyes were half-closed as she commented, "It's not that simple. Tomorrow, it's not just me going to Xiang Qing Hou Fu. There are also furen from other fu. It will be just as lively."
The custom of the families visiting each other on New Year's Eve hadn't changed much here. These days, Qu Qing Ju was irritated by the drama and disgusted by the sight of meat. Luckily, her status was high and she didn't break her legs from running.
"Wang fei," Yu Zan walked in. Seeing Qu Qing Ju's relaxed expression, she said: "Wang fei, the Marquis of Bao Rong Fu has sent you an invitation."
"Baorong Marquis' Residence?" Qu Qing Ju remembered that this Marquise of Bao Rong was at odds with Liang shi and was on He Yuan's side. She waved her hand, "Put it down. Have someone reply that I don't have time." Bao Rong Hou Fu, this kind of family, really had the nerve to send her an invitation. Could it be that they thought that because she didn't like Liang shi, she would give them face? It was really laughable.
Yu Zan put away the invitation and turned to say: "This servant heard that this year, many beauties were selected from all over the country to enter the palace. I wonder if there will be any from our fu."
Qu Qing Ju moved her neck to ease the soreness in her neck. She said faintly: "You don't have to worry about something that didn't happen. Have Huang Yang keep a close eye on the mansion. If anyone causes trouble, tell me directly. "
Yu Zan heard wang fei's tone was calm and assumed that wang fei had a card up her sleeve. She stopped the topic and said: "There hasn't been anything in the fu these past two days. It's just that a few days ago, Han shiqie and Feng shiqie argued in the garden."
Hearing this, Qu Qing Ju smiled, "Don't worry about them, wait a few days." Han Qing He was an expert at sailing with the wind, when Feng Zi Jin was favored, she followed Feng Zi Jin's lead in everything. Now that she, the princess, was in charge, she naturally had to make her stand clear.
This kind of person wasn't interesting. Qu Qing Ju was too lazy to watch her act. She sighed and ordered: "Take some people and check all the gifts that have come in from the outside. Go with Qian Chang Xin and the others to store them."
Hearing this, Yu Zan bowed and withdrew.
Mu Jin said with some hesitation: "Wangfei, Han shiqie's temperament is fickle. Nubi is worried that she will have other thoughts in the future."
"It doesn't matter how many thoughts she has," Qu Qing Ju laughed lightly, "She's the oldest woman by wang ye's side. Wang ye doesn't like her anymore. Naturally, she has to find someone else to rely on. I don't need to keep an eye on such a person every day."
Mu Jin immediately understood what wang fei meant. No matter how powerful this flea was, it was just a flea. It could not become a tiger. Spending too much energy on a flea, that was throwing away a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed.
In the afternoon, He Heng came back from a banquet. He drank more than half a cup of tea before he managed to suppress his drunkenness. He had the servants bring water in. He saw that the yahuan had also followed in. He waved his hand, ordering: "Leave, ben wang doesn't need your service."
The people in the room left. He took off his clothes and soaked in the tub for a while before standing up to dry his body. After putting on his inner robes, he called for someone to come in and declared: "In the future, ben wang doesn't need service when bathing." Just now, at the banquet, he had heard a joke. A certain young master of a prestigious family had been groping while being served by a yahuan. Who knew that he had been caught red-handed by his powerful di wife. In this argument, the root of the person's life had been injured. It was said that that place had been crippled.
This matter made the lower half of the male guests at the banquet hurt when they heard it. It also made He Heng lose interest in having yahuan serve him in the bath. At least, not in the mood for this period of time. Thinking back to the endless taste of the mandarin duck bath with Qu Qing Ju, He Heng felt his throat itch.
After he was dressed, He Heng adjusted the navy blue pouch at his waist: "Go to wang fei's place."
Ming He, who had been serving at the side, was used to it. He took off wang ye's cape and followed, indicating for the little taijian behind him to follow. Qian Chang Xin had put the annual gifts into the treasury for each fu. He had to be alert now.
It was already late when He Heng returned to the fu. After his bath, it was already time for the evening meal. Qu Qing Ju saw him come and the two ate together. Even though the majority of the dishes on the table were vegetarian, the two ate happily.
After the meal, it was still early. He Heng was in the mood to play chess and insisted on playing chess with Qu Qing Ju. Qu Qing Ju, who only knew the rules of chess, had no choice but to play with him.
If the Heavens gave He Heng another chance, he definitely wouldn't let Qu Qing Ju play chess with him. Looking at the messy chess board in front of him, and Qu Qing Ju's excited gaze, he helplessly put down a piece.
"Aiya, wang ye, why are you playing here!" Qu Qing Ju saw her piece was blocked and couldn't help but take back the piece she had just played, "Then I won't play here, change place, change place."
"A gentleman doesn't regret his move. How many moves did you ruin tonight?" He Heng couldn't help but sigh. This was the worst chess game he had ever played in his entire life. Even when he had just learned to play chess, he hadn't been so conflicted.
"I'm a woman, I have the right to regret. Gentlemen are for you men, it doesn't matter to me," Qu Qing Ju shoved the white piece back into He Heng's hand. She picked up the black piece and put it in another place, "Here."
He Heng pretended not to see the hole and randomly played. Seeing Qu Qing Ju happily eat her piece, he asked: "Just now, didn't you say that women have great intelligence?"
"What does the intelligence of women have to do with me reneging?" Qu Qing Ju raised an eyebrow, her face shocked, "Wang ye, you must have misunderstood." Finishing, she put down another piece.
He Heng wanted to say that it was his turn, but seeing the other's joyful expression, he couldn't say a word. The chess skills that he was so proud of, in front of his wang fei, were utterly defeated.
When a person just learned something, their interest was the greatest. Right now, Qu Qing Ju's interest was at its peak.
After playing for almost two hours, He Heng looked at the messy chess board and ignored Qu Qing Ju's interested face. He stood and walked in front of Qu Qing Ju, bending down to scoop her up: "It's late, Qing Ju should rest with me."
Qu Qing Ju wrapped a hand around his neck: "Then tomorrow, you can play with me again."
He Heng felt his throat choke but the smile on his face was still warm: "We'll talk about it tomorrow." Finishing, he carried the other towards the inner rooms.
Seeing the situation, Ming He, Mu Jin and the others hurriedly retreated with the others. But as the two retreated, they both thought, wang fei's skill at chess, it really was terrible. It was rare that wang ye could endure for so long.
He didn't know if it was because he had held back too much during the game, but after finishing with Qu Qing Ju, He Heng felt very carefree. Using the light of the night pearls, he saw her eyes looking at him. With this look, he couldn't resist caressing that soft skin. The feeling under his hands was too comfortable, so comfortable that he didn't bear to move his hand away.
"Itchy!" When He Heng's hand moved to her waist, Qu Qing Ju couldn't resist using her knee to lightly nudge the other. Who knew that she nudged the wrong place and that hand moved from her waist to below.
The naughty hand caused Qu Qing Ju to move but He Heng pressed her down. He rubbed against her chest, asking: "Is it itchy here?" His hand moved to a warm place.
"En … …" Qu Qing Ju felt that her body was slightly soft. In bed, He Heng could be considered a top class man. At least when the other was enjoying, Qu Qing Ju could also enjoy herself. She wrapped a hand around the other's back, her moist lips brushing past his slightly cold ear. She exhaled a warm breath, "Also itchy."
This action ignited a fire. He Heng lightly bit down on her broken bones: "I'll stop the itch for you."
It was another passionate exercise. After the two of them were both comfortable, Qu Qing Ju leaned against He Heng, rubbing against the warmth of the other's body as she fell asleep.
He Heng put his hand on Qu Qing Ju's waist. Looking at her sleeping appearance, he also closed his eyes and fell asleep.
On the morning of the second day, Qu Qing Ju sat at the head of the bed. Looking at the man who was using a silk handkerchief to wipe his face, she asked with surprise: "Wang ye is going to accompany me to the marquis fu?"
"Isn't it normal for a husband to accompany a newly married daughter to give New Year greetings?" He Heng threw the handkerchief back into the basin, motioning for the servant girl kneeling to leave. He walked in front of Qu Qing Ju, reaching out to pinch Qu Qing Ju's cheek. The smooth feeling made his mood very good, "Quickly get up and eat. Later, you still have to dress and change." Finishing, he didn't care what Qu Qing Ju thought, swinging his hand out of the inner room.
Qu Qing Ju stilled and was slightly speechless. A man who was satisfied in a certain area, as expected, was more gentle.
After breakfast, when Qu Qing Ju was dressing, He Heng sat at the side with interest. Seeing the servant girls come up with boxes of jewelry, he said: "Put on the buyao I gave you."
Hearing this, the hand that Qu Qing Ju used to hold the buyao made a turn and picked up the blue luan buyao to give to Yu Zan in charge of her hair. Looking at this unique buyao in her hair, Qu Qing Ju's lips curled as she commented: "This buyao is so beautiful I can't bear to wear it."
"No matter how beautiful it is, it has to be worn by someone," He Heng walked behind her and caressed the buyao. He reached out to take the brow pendant from Yu Zan's hand and personally helped Qu Qing Ju put it on. He bent down to look at her in the mirror, "As long as you like it, these worldly things are nothing."
Qu Qing Ju touched the brow pendant and raised her head to look at He Heng. The other's face was filled with a warm smile, as though he was an infatuated man looking at the woman he loved.
She smiled as she lowered her head. She picked up the brow pendant to make her willowy eyebrows even more beautiful. After drawing a flower between her brows, she raised her head again and smiled shyly as she asked: "Is this good?"
He Heng felt that he was stunned by this smile. The smile on his face was so warm that it could drip water: "Very good." He reached out to pull up the person in front of the mirror. He sighed, "The saying is, 'Like a tiger with white teeth, two moths with green eyebrows. The red face is like a lotus, the white skin like cream. ' It's just so. It's a pity that there are so few poems in the world that they can't describe my feelings right now. "
"In wang ye's eyes, am I that good?" Qu Qing Ju tilted her head, "I don't believe it."
"Has Qing Ju ever heard that beauty is in the eye of the beholder?" He Heng smiled as he reached out to stroke the hair at her temples, "Never mind, you will naturally understand in the future. It's getting late, we should leave."
Yu Zan and the yahuan, who had been attending to her, stood shyly at the side, sighing at the depth of the relationship between wang ye and wang fei.
It was Qian Chang Xin, Ming He, Mu Jin and the others who had been waiting behind the door that had calm expressions. They obediently bowed their heads as though they couldn't hear what wang ye and wang fei were saying, and they themselves were puppets that couldn't hear or speak.
