"On the twelfth day of this month will be our Young Master's birthday. Taking this opportunity, Dàrén specially invited the gentlemen and young talents of Dongjiang County to have lunch together. He also wanted to meet Shen Gōngzǐ in person."
Before leaving, the housekeeper gave Shen Yanbei the invitation to the birthday banquet. Shen Yanbei received it and sent him out in person.
The housekeeper smiled and politely refused his courtesy. After this, he still had to go to Lijia Village to give the invitation to Li Yi.
In Li Yi's house, the village chiefs who were going to attend the Shen Yanbe's crown ceremony were all sitting in the hall, looking at each other. On the seat of the owner, Li Yi drank tea slowly, without speaking.
The head of Lijia Village, who was sitting in the first seat on the left row, coughed lightly. "Today, I asked everyone to come here to ask about the financing for building the public school. Is there any village that has collected the funds?"
The borough chief frowned slightly. "Didn't you say the duration for raising funds is one month?"
"Juren just wants to ask you if you have any difficulties that need to be solved." The village chief of Lijia Village laughed. "For example, some ignorant villagers are unwilling to do this, or some people make trouble... …"
As soon as these words came out, the village chiefs who had been called over early in the morning to sit idle for half an hour were angry but did not dare to complain. Today was Shen Xiucai's of Shenjia Village crown ceremony and he had prepared a banquet to entertain them. But when they were about to go, someone from Lijia Village came to say that Li Juren had something important to tell them. When the other party said this was a serious matter, they thought it was really urgent. So they rushed to come but when they finally arrived, the chiefs of every village were there except for the head of Shenjia Village! After asking what was the matter, it was actually this trivial thing. Moreover, why it had to be this day. Obviously, it was just to prevent them from attending the crown ceremony of Shen Xiucai!
They heard that Shen Xiucai succeed to prove the crime of the thief from Lijia Village, so perhaps, Li Juren did it to get revenge!
Everyone sighed. On the one hand, they sighed because never expecting that Li Yi would seek revenge for the smallest grievance, and on the other hand, they were thankful that they did not offend Li Yi.
When they were on chat, the servant of Li's Family reported that the county magistrate's housekeeper came to visit.
Everyone was stunned. Li Yi got up to greet him.
The housekeeper glanced at the curious eyes of the village heads, handed the invitation to Li Yi with a smile.
"Housekeeper Lao has come to visit from far, why don't you sit down to have a cup of tea?" Li Yi who was holding the invitation was surprised and happy. The last time he went to the county office, he couldn't see the county magistrate so he thought the magistrate didn't want to meet him at all. Yet he didn't expect the housekeeper would come in person to invite him over!
The village chiefs looked at each other, they could clearly see the shock in the eyes of the other person.
It seemed that the county magistrate valued Li Juren so much...
"Thank you, but I still have to go back to report to Lǎoyé, so I won't disturb."
Li Yi personally sent the housekeeper out. "I don't know what the xiǎo gōngzǐ likes? So I can prepare it well."
The housekeeper smiled and said, "The feeling is profound*. As long as sufficient-to-purpose with kindly feeling."
*the gift is trifling but the feeling is profound; the thoughtfulness is worth far more than the gift itself.
Li Yi nodded. When the housekeeper left, he walked in leisurely with his hands clasped behind his back. The village chiefs who were silent just now immediately stated that they would hand in the funds within the agreed time limit. Li Yi sat back in the main seat, took the tea lid, and dialed it gently. "Thank you, everyone."
A village chief nodded and bowed his head. He said, "Of course!"
With that flattering look, Li Yi felt more at ease, but he shook his head in his heart.
After the meeting was over, the other village heads returned home one after another, and only the borough chief went to Shenjia Village.
"Lao Guo?" When Shen Dezhong saw him coming, he waved quickly. "Come and sit!"
"Borough chief."
Shen Yanbei greeted the borough chief. The borough chief looked at him from top to bottom, his eyes were full of admiration.
As tall and straight like bamboo, this handsome young man had clear and bright eyes,
The bamboo-like young man has handsome features and clear eyes. He even looked more radiant when wearing brocade clothes.
"I come in a hurry, forgot to prepare a gift." The borough chief apologized. Actually, he had prepared the gift, who knew Li Juren would call him over and he forgot to bring the gift with him.
"It isn't a big deal because Someone had given a big gift today. Just sit down!" Shen Dezhong smiled and poured him a glass of wine.
Smelling the mellow taste of wine, Borough Chief Gu stopped talking. He took a sip first, and then his eyes lit up. "It's a good wine!"
"Of course it is. This is made by the Lady of the wine!" Shen Dezhong smacked his mouth, carefully experiencing the wonderful feeling of the fragrance in his lips and teeth.
"Is that so." The borough chief sigh. "Such a good wine, but unfortunately they couldn't taste it..." He immediately told him what happened in Li Yi's house and finally lowered his voice. "The thing we worry about the most is still happening. Now, this new magistrate gives him a face. I'm afraid that..."
Shen Dezhong. "..."
Seeing that he was silent, the borough chief consoled. "Perhaps I think too much. The thing may not turn to be the worst."
"Do you know who the new magistrate is?" Shen Dezhong asked suddenly.
The borough chief directly replied, "Didn't you say that his surname is Li?"
"Do you know who you were walking with in the fields that day?" Shen Dezhong asked again.
"It's a Gōngzǐ from an aristocratic family who came out for a walk..." The borough chief's eyes widened as he said. "It's that him?"
"Yes, that's the new county magistrate." Shen Dezhong seemed to be happy to see the surprised look of the borough chief. He asked, "Did you know that the magistrate's housekeeper comes to visit just now?"
What? The borough chief paused lifting his bowl and suddenly raised his head to look at Shen Dezhong.
"Can you guess why the housekeeper especially come in person to hand him the invitation?"
The borough chief was still silent. Shen Dezhong smiled. "It's the county magistrate who asked the housekeeper to come over and give a gift. By the way, he also gave Yanbei an invitation for his son's birthday banquet."
Eyes filled with consternation.
Shen Dezhong took a sip of wine and said slowly, "In fact, the housekeeper doesn't need to come in person. Someone even can use his status to intimidate people."
"Who?" The chief asked subconsciously following his words.
Shen Dezhong raised his chin at the table of Su Qingze, who was surrounded by a bunch of aunts who asked questions. The borough chief looked at Su Qingze, who dressed expensively, "I am a rich man" written on his face, with a complicated expression. "Who is he?" "
"Xiǎo Gōngzǐ of the Su's Family in Qinghe County."
"Uhuk..." Li Chang was choked by the wine, and his face flushed due to the cough. He held onto Shen Dezhong tightly. "Lao...Lao Zhong, what did you just say?"
"Actually, it isn't that bid." Shen Dezhong kindly gave him humility. "This xiǎo gōngzǐ
happens to be the magistrate's brother-in-law."
"He and Yanbei's Fulang are friends."
"Uhuk uhuk uhuk ..." Li Chang coughed even harder.
Although there were many twists and turns, Shen Yanbei, who finally used his original name as he wished, was still very happy. With this joy, he drank two more glasses.
The alcohol content was not high, but it was still intoxicating. When the banquet was over, Shen Yanbei, whose face was red, was being brought back home by Gu Changfeng. The banquet was managed by the sisters-in-law and aunts, so they could leave the things to them. Moreover, the dishes at today's banquet were delicious and large in portion. So the villagers were happy and of course, didn't mind helping to clean up the rest.
"Wife..." Shen Yanbei yelled as he laid on the bed.
"I'm here." Gu Changfeng wrung out a hot towel then wiped his face and hands. Shen Yanbei grabbed the person and looked at him with lightly gleaming eyes. "Sleep with me for a while."
The young man's voice sounded lazy. The corner of his mouth rose slightly, unexpectedly matching with his smiling eyes.
Gu Changfeng was startled, and said, "...Okay."
"It's uncomfortable to sleep with so many clothes." Shen Yanbei pulled his shirt impatiently. The weather was hot. For his crown ceremony, he had to wear a cumbersome dress. He also wore three layers of hats and boots, which made his whole body was wrapped tightly. Plus he was drunk now, the hot made him more uncomfortable.
Gu Changfeng helped him take off his hat, his shoes, socks, and then took off his robe. "It's fine now?"
"It's still hot." Shen Yanbei struggled to take off his belt.
Gu Changfeng had to help him loosen his belt. During this period of time, the young man had gradually exercised while taking supplements, which made the body looked much stronger than before. The most obvious manifestation was the waist was gradually becoming thin and strong.
When did this waist get a bit more fleshy, and when did it become a bit more vigor, no one knew it better than him...
"Take off the coat..." Shen Yanbei frowned.
Gu Changfeng hesitated. "It will be cold if you take it off." Shen Yanbei didn't like to be covered by the quilt when he was sleeping.
"It's okay, you can hold me instead." Shen Yanbei licked his lips and smiled ambiguously.
Gu Changfeng's face was hot, and he hummed softly.
Shen Yanbei laid so lazily waiting for his wife to come. Gu Changfeng didn't dare to look at him. He always felt that there was something in his smiling eyes that made him powerless.
"Changfeng..." Shen Yanbei whispered in a hoarse voice. When the voice fell in Gu Changfeng's ears, his fingers trembled.
He was the one who put the clothes on for Shen Yanbei one by one, and now he also the one who put the clothes off one by one. He didn't know why but Shen Yanbei's inexplicable smile always could make him panic.
Facts had proved that the master of martial art's intuition for danger was so accurate.
When only the inner shirt was left, Shen Yanbei pulled the person over. Gu Changfeng was startled and hurriedly supported his body with his hands.
Shen Yanbei smiled innocently under him. "I just want to help you undress."
Gu Changfeng's face turned red. "I... I'll take it off myself."
Shen Yanbei smiled and stared at him for a while. The heat began to spread around his neck, Gu Changfeng was so nervous and at a loss what to do.
This was not the first time this had happened, but today's Shen Yanbei was unexpectedly teasing people actively. Thinking of today's crown ceremony, Gu Changfeng lowered his eyes.
Perhaps because he was so happy now?
The struggle in his heart was only a moment, Gu Changfeng took off his shirt without hesitation under that hot gaze.
With his eyes fixed on that strong and sexy chest, Shen Yanbei's throat rolled, feeling that the fire in his heart made his throat thirsty.
"Wife...wife..., I'm thirsty."
Gu Changfeng was taken aback, then got up to pour him water.
Looking at that slender waist and powerful arms, Shen Yanbei felt his heart beat a drum, and a sense of tension that hadn't been seen for a long time enveloped him.
When Gu Changfeng brought water over, he found that Shen Yanbei's face was even redder.
"Do you feel any uncomfortable?" Gu Changfeng looked worried.
Shen Yanbei nodded and took a sip of water to moisturize his throat.
Gu Changfeng held his hand, preparing to inject qi into his body to help him get the wine out. But the next moment, his lips were blocked by a warm object. Unlike the usual gentle kiss, this kiss was eager and strong. When he was dazed, his lips and teeth were forced to open so Shen Yanbei could capture territory.
"Changfeng..."
The young man's voice was suppressed and low with a certain naked desire. His eyes staring at him were frighteningly bright.
His face burned all at once.
"Changfeng."
Shen Yanbei held the back of his head with one hand, entangled his lips and tongue, and slid down his shoulder and neck with the other. With scorching heat in his hand, the honey-colored skin instantly flushed wherever he went.
His breathing gradually became confused. Gu Changfeng only felt his heart beating frantically, pounding like he was about to jump out of his chest. His muscles tightened unnaturally.
Trying to control the hand that wanted to hug each other, Gu Changfeng's voice became hoarse. "Husband...husband..."
After taking a heavy bite on his lips, Shen Yanbei's eyes were dark and deep. "Wrong."
Gu Changfeng breathed. His lips trembled. "Yan...Yanbei..."
"En." Shen Yanbei responded with a smile, with a fire flickering in his eyes.
"Today is my coming-of-age ceremony. Don't you have anything to give me?"
Gu Changfeng suddenly panicked. "I...I don't..."
Shen Yanbei bowed his head and kissed his ear. "Alright, it doesn't matter..."
"Just give yourself to me."
Gingers: O ma ma maiii... O ma ma maiiii...
