The weather was getting hotter day by day, and the sound of the leaves rustling was very clear. The children in the village got together in twos and threes, playing around happily.
If it was in the past, Su Qingze would only feel that this summer was extremely difficult to endure. Even the sound of cicadas outside the window could make him irritable, and besides that hot weather would make him lose his appetite and sleep restlessly. But this time, he only thought that summer was very fun!
"Young Master, the sun is scorching outside. Let's wait for the sun to go down before going out?" Ming'an anxiously looked at the young man who had been tanned a lot but didn't care about it. After living here for a few months, the young master of his family changed from a fleshy bun face to a slightly pointed chin. He had lost a lot of weight, which made him become more energetic. But since he spent all his time in the countryside, why he even lost a demeanor as a Gōngzǐ of a wealthy and influential family?
Su Qingze didn't care much. "It's indeed not cool outside the house! So why don't we go to the forest?"
"But it will get in the sun too!" In the hot summer, which Gōngzǐ did not stay at home and let the maidservant fan him, drink iced plum soup to relieve the heat, and take a nap in the bedroom with ice cubes? But his young master was no different from a mountain kid now except for his identity as a Shuang'er! He now could be adept at fishing in the water and digging out bird eggs in the trees!
Ming'an was about to cry. Where was his white and tender young master who was like a fortune doll?
Knowing what Ming'an was worried about, Su Qingze didn't think much. "What are you afraid of? It's not that I can't get married! My parents have said that I have been wrapped* up in the next half of my life, whether it is round or flat, black or white, I still must marry him!"
*Describes the meaning of taking all the remaining things or affairs.
These words quite calmed him down, Ming'an immediately comforted him cautiously. "I've never heard anyone in the mansion mention this. Maybe the lǎoyé and fūrén lied to you?"
"What's the difference between true and false? Isn't it necessary to marry in the end?" He understood his parents, that look absolutely couldn't deceive people! the most important is! His father and mother who loved him so much even couldn't refuse this marriage. That person must have the right to provoke their family, but on the other contrary their Su's Family couldn't afford to provoke him and dare not provoke him!
Seeing the young man laughing at himself, Ming'an felt distressed, "If you really don't want to marry this person, why don't you go and ask Young Master Ah-Heng?"
Su Qingze frowned and asked puzzledly, "What do you want him to do?"
"Let him push this marriage for you!"
Su Qingze felt even more strange. "What does my family have to do with him?"
"Doesn't..." he like you? Ming'an didn't say the second half of the sentence. Su Qingze was at the end of his 17 now. If Young Master Ah-Heng was really interested in his young master, he would have come to propose a marriage early, so why bother by sending letters?
"You will cross the bridge when you get to it*. It is useless to think much." Su Qingze waved his hand, putting on his straw hat and preparing to go out.
*chuán dào qiáotóu zìrán zhí: in the end things will mend.
Ming'an finally couldn't stop him, so he could only follow. But in his heart, he wanted to find someone to persuade Su Qingze not to let him go wild like this. Or not, if he finally married into someone else's house in the future, this kind of character would not be liked by your husband's family.
The person who could do it was naturally Gu Changfeng.
Gu Changfeng was just silent. Just let Su Qingze play, because young people should be lively people. He had developed the dull temperament he was now, so he actually was a little envious of Su Qingze's sunny and cheerful character.
Ming'an then looked at Shen Yanbei, trying to make him to persuade Su Qingze with his eyes.
Shen Yanbei couldn't laugh or cry. "It's good for him to be happy like this. It’s impossible for your master's family to not know the situation of your young master here. Since he is allowed to live here, it means that they acquiesced to let him play. Don't you think your worry is a bit useless?"
If he asked him to say that a boy should look like a boy. Did it mean that he should show pretentious elegance or exquisiteness such as a walk with mincing steps like a woman and always act shyly?
Ming'an was taken aback. The emperor actually didn't worry, but the eunuch did? After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the lǎoyé and fūrén just told him to pay attention to the safety of the young master, but did not ask him to remind the young master to pay attention to words and deeds...
"Such a wealthy and influential family have so much restraint!" After Ming'an left, Shen Yanbei couldn't help shaking his head, turned around, and hugged his wife. He smiled. "It's better to be a small family like us. You can do as you want!"
Gu Changfeng, who was hugged tight, only said "um". Since it was too hot he wore less, and dressed more casually at home, which made the clothes stick to the skin because of the sweat. The opponent's body was cold, but why did it make him feel that his whole body was burning.
Realizing that the skin under his hands was gradually getting hot, Shen Yanbei kissed that sharp face. "Last night... did you like it?"
Hearing that, Gu Changfeng's whole body froze, and his exposed honey-colored skin glowed reddishly. His eyes flickered, and he did not dare to look at Shen Yanbei.
"You don't like it?"
The young man's eyes looked a little disappointed and lonely, Gu Changfeng resisted the shame in his heart and hurriedly said, "I...I like it!"
A smile flashed in Shen Yanbei's eyes, but he said in a faint voice, "You don't need to comfort me, I know my skills are not good."
"No, it's not..." Gu Changfeng was anxious. "It's very... very comfortable!"
Shen Yanbei didn't quite believe it. "Really?"
Gu Changfeng nodded quickly. Shen Yanbei frowned slightly. "You don't have to force yourself."
"I'm really comfortable!" Gu Changfeng clenched his fists and said with a blushing face, "If you don't believe... let's do it again..."
Shen Yanbei raised his eyebrows, dubiously. Gu Changfeng gritted his teeth and hugged him directly onto the bed.
Shen Yanbei lowered his gaze at the red-faced man, he said hesitantly, "Tell me if you are uncomfortable."
With his head tilted, Gu Changfeng's ears were red in response, which made the smile in Shen Yanbei's eyes gradually clear. Then he lifted his shirt to reveal sexy and strong chest and abdominal muscles.
The warm lips and tongue fell on the muscle body like a wildfire that started to burn out of control. When the most sensitive and fragile part of his body fell into the opponent's mouth, tears overflowed from the corners of Gu Changfeng's eyes. The unspeakable pleasure made him slightly lost, and he clenched his fists tightly to endure it without screaming.
Shen Yanbei's eyes turned deep. He was very satisfied with the extreme joy he brought to the other party.
Gu Changfeng was still injured and lost a lot of blood. So he didn't dare to do it with real guns and ammunition. Taking into account the needs of his wife, he did it with his mouth last night. Even though his novice skill still ought to be improved, what made him happy was the reaction of his wife. His muscles became tense, and the look of desperation that he was suppressed almost made him look awkward. So he tried to make him cry desperately.
"Um—" an unbearable cry leaked from his mouth, and the blushing Gu Changfeng raised his head, which made his usual calm dark eyes turn to be watery.
The sun outside was like a fire, and the inside of the house was like fire too.
Su Qingze wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his cheek was flushed with rouge from the sun. He smiled and squinted his eyes, taking off the big black cicada stuck to the bamboo pole. "I got it!"
The big black cicada screamed, flapping its wings desperately to fly. Su Qingze directly pinched its wings and prepared to put it in the net bag.
"Su Gōngzǐ!"
Suddenly there was a woman's sweet voice from the other side. Then a woman in a water-green skirt came slowly with a bamboo basket. "What a coincidence?"
Su Qingze looked up at the woman, nodding lightly.
"This sun is so poisonous, Su Gōngzǐ has to be careful to not be burned. Why don't we go to the bamboo forest to enjoy the cool?" The woman smiled softly and invited, "I have prepared watermelon soaked in well water in the bamboo forest, how about Su Gōngzǐ went to sit and eat a piece of melon to cool off?"
"No. Shen Dàgē has prepared sour plum soup for me." Su Qingze refused unceremoniously. In the past few days, this woman had always tried to see him all the time. If she just wanted to get close to him because of his identity, he didn't think much. Although this woman acted friendly on her face, he could see the hatred in her eyes. How could he get close to such a purposeful person unless he was a fool?
The smile on the woman's face condensed, she smiled dryly. "I have two new textbooks, and they are pretty good. Why don't I give it to Su Gōngzǐ to relieve your boredom?"
Su Qingze slammed the big black cicada in front of her. "I'm not interested!"
The hideous big black cicada suddenly zoomed in front of her eyes, the bulging black eyes and the big black legs with barbed startled the woman. The woman in a water-green skirt screamed so much.
Su Qingze laughed, like a proud dude who made fun of people, looked at the woman contemptuously, and warned, "No matter what your purpose is, don't try to approach me!" After speaking, he carried the bamboo pole on his shoulders and walked away.
The woman's face flushed red, staring at his back, stomping her feet fiercely, and cursing in a low voice, "You fatty man! Just because you were born in a good family, you can't just look down on me!"
The boy originally had a good foundation, but now he was getting thinner, which made his facial features become more and more three-dimensional. When he smiled temperament became more exquisite, like a gem that was slowly brushed away from the dust, slowly showing a dazzling brilliance.
The woman couldn't say whether it was because of jealousy or other reasons. The only thing she knew now was that she couldn't get close to the teenager to understand the teenager's preferences!
This kind of method failed, So she had to think of other ways...
Thinking of this, the woman snorted coldly and went home with the basket on her back. When he passed a certain bamboo forest, he heard a cheerful laugh. The face of the woman was scornful.
"A Master Xiùcái who does farming and raising all day really makes scholars lose their face!"
"Oh! Who do you mean to lose the face of a scholar?" Shen Qiukui yelled. With a stroke of the bamboo pole in his hand, he drove the healthy duck into the bamboo forest surrounded by fishing nets.
The woman's face became stiff, she stopped speaking and walked away quickly.
"Why do you care about her?" Wu sān-gē's wife Jinhua also held a long bamboo pole. "We can't eat the sour grapes, but it doesn't mean she also doesn't eat."
"Yeah, maybe it is because of the sour!" Shen Qikui smiled, watching the energetic ducks in front of him, he said happily, "This duck is well raised! I don't know how will it taste!" The paddy in the Shen's Family's field began to yield rice. So Shen Yanbei asked him to drive the ducks to the bamboo forest to raise them temporarily. The ducks had been raised for three months and they can be slaughtered soon!
"It should taste good!" The duck stayed on the farm all day, either eating the pests in the field or eating some fish and shrimp. It looked different from the ducks raised at home and was more flexible than domestic ducks.
"Shen Xiucai's family will have a bumper harvest this year!" Shen Qiukui said with emotion. The rice produced by Shen Yanbei's rice was heavy and rich, the number of rice grains per plant was more than other people's. His corn was a bit higher and had more corn than other people's. With the ducks and the fish in the rice fields, this total income in great abundance was very fantastic!
"My husband said that after the new round of rice planting, he will also learn to grow rice and raise fish and duck as what Shen Xiucai does." Jinhua was eager to try.
"My family doesn't have enough hands, I can't do this one." Shen Qikui was a little regretful. "But I do grow a lot of vegetables at home. If Shen Xiucai wants to buys beans, I still have more beans."
"The beans are good!" Jinhua pulled the fishing net and said, "These days are getting hot, which makes my girl doesn't want to eat rice. The beans are sour and refreshing. If you stir-fry with a little bit of meat, she can eat two bowls of porridge!"
"My mother loves this too. She likes to eat it with vegetable stir-fry..."
The two laughed and chatted, but the information revealed in the words was that Shen Yanbei's actions were affecting the whole village.
