The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion
Chapter 293: Opening Hearts to Each Other
Chapter 293: Opening Hearts to Each Other
When the evening lights were lit, in the living room of Sun Mansion's backyard, twelve candlesticks were lit brightly again.
Seeing the various delicacies densely spread on the round table, Jia Yingchun moved slightly uneasily and said to the kitchen assistant who was still serving the dishes, "There are too many of them. There are only three people in my courtyard, how can I finish this much food?
Madam, you can just pick any delicious dishes you like.
The woman smiled and said, "When the Elder Master went out at noon, he told us that you had caught some cold on the day you returned home and asked the kitchen to make more nourishing dishes. We wont dare to go against the Elder Master's wishes.
As soon as she heard that it was Sun Shaozu's intention, Yingchun immediately didnt dare say anything more. She silently waited for the two women to lay down the last thick soup and politely withdrew, which was when she breathed a sigh of relief.
Wow~
Xiuju lifted the curtain and approached with a slightly strange posture. Looking at the hot and hard dishes on the table, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Today's meal is so sumptuous, I'm afraid it's the same as when I spent the New Year at Rongguo Mansion before.
Siqi cleaned the ivory chopsticks that the Madam had brought back and then placed them in front of Jia Yingchun. She commented, "In terms of cooking skills, they are not as good as Rongguo Mansion, but the cooks in our mansion are more than willing to use good ingredients. If these good ingredients were to go through the hands of that wicked woman in the Liu family, I'm afraid it would waste more than half of them for personal use.
The Liu family was the female steward of the small kitchen in Rongguo Mansion. She was usually the most adept at catering to people, like Baoyu, whom she was always trying to please and take care of. A Lady like Jia Yingchun, who wasnt favored by anyone, was restricted from everything.
Therefore, Siqi hated her the most normally and has long been holding back from fighting her.
As for now...
Unfortunately, the Liu family didnt come over as dowry servants!
Siqi thought of the Liu family and couldn't help but secretly express her anger for a moment. When she regained her composure, she saw that Yingchun was still staring at a table of delicious food in a daze.
So she forcefully thrust the chopsticks into her hand and urged, "Hurry up and eat. If you can get pregnant with a son, these are considered nothing. Even if you want gold and silver, the Elder Master is willing to give them to you.
Upon hearing her mention getting pregnant with a son, Jia Yingchun remembered the morning pillow thing and blushed again. She quickly lowered her head and picked up a few chopsticks, then she called out, You two, sit down and eat together, too.
Although only a few chopsticks were missing, it also indicated the vast difference between the master and servant.
Siqi didn't say anything, but Xiuju was already waiting for this, eagerly begging for the food and enjoying it.
The three of them all came out of the big house, so they naturally had a standard way of eating without speaking.
After silently eating for about two-quarters of an hour, Jia Yingchun saw that both Siqi and Xiuju were already full. It was then that Jia Yingchun placed the long chopsticks and empty bowl on the table.
The two maids immediately got up, one quickly tidied up the dishes, and the other was about to go outside the gate, calling for the woman to come in and tidy up the mess.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the hand was placed on the curtain, someone snatched up the door curtain first, and then a burly figure flashed in.
Second Master.
Siqi exclaimed in surprise. It turned out that the person who quietly sneaked in was not someone else, it was Sun Shaozong.
Jia Yingchun's face turned red for a moment, and she stood up at a loss. She wanted to say something but couldn't open her mouth. In the end, she had to bury her head in her chest again.
On the other hand, Xiuju was overjoyed to see Sun Shaozong. She greeted him and said, "Why did Second Master come at this time? Didn't anyone see you?
Don't worry, I came in over the wall.
Sun Shaozong answered, seeing that the bowls and chopsticks were already organized, and then looking at Siqi at the door, he suddenly said, "Are you about to call the woman in to tidy up the table? Let's go in and talk.
As he spoke, he naturally walked up to Jia Yingchun and spread his rough, big hand in front of her.
Yingchun bit her lip and hesitated for a while, but finally, she trembled and put her hand up.
Sun Shaozong then pulled her through the door and entered the interior.
Xiuju felt a bit lost, but Sun Shaozong instructed without looking back and said, "Xiuju, come in too.
Yes sir.
Xiuju agreed with a smile on her face. Disregarding any inconvenience to her body, she flew inside.
Seeing that she was alone, Siqi had to go to the takeout and shouted for the women on duty to come in, giving them the leftover food as a snack.
It only took a quarter of an hour to clean up the mess after being busy both inside and outside here.
Siqi listened attentively for a moment and saw that it was quiet and not like something shameless was happening. She then walked forward and gently knocked on the door, saying, "Madam, the outside has been cleaned up.
Before the words fell, the door was opened by Xiuju from inside.
Siqi unconsciously walked in and saw Sun Shaozong sitting in front of the dressing table with a golden knife, placing Jia Yingchun on his lap and whispering something to her.
When Yingchun saw Siqi enter, she lowered her head coyly but didnt intend to rise from Sun Shaozong's lap. This was more daring than her usual timid behavior.
It seemed that she not only gave up her body yesterday but also her heart.
Siqi pretended not to see anything and asked expressionlessly, "Second Master, can you still stay here tonight?
Naturally.
Sun Shaozong nodded without hesitation and said, "Recently, there have been some official documents stored in the study, so it has long been forbidden for others to approach at will. In addition, I have locked the door. As long as I hurry back before dawn, I am not afraid of being discovered.
Upon hearing this, Siqi didn't have much to say. However, Yingchun showed some difficulty and hesitated for a moment before blushing and whispering in his ear.
Sun Shaozong chuckled a few times upon hearing this, reached out to her nose, and softly said, "Don't worry, I just came here today to talk to you, there's no other meaning.
As he spoke, he also bit her in the ear.
When she vaguely heard words like heart to heart and not body to body, she saw Jia Yingchun's starry eyes full of emotion.
It seemed that the Madam was completely trapped.
Siqi couldn't help but let out a sigh, but it was normal. Jia Yingchun has an easily satisfied temperament and was in a state of panic. However, when she met a man who was used to being considerate, she naturally had no resistance and fell into it.
Just thinking about the awkward Sister-in-law relationship between the two, Siqi didn't know whether to celebrate or feel sorry for her.
Forget it, let's just muddle through first!
With this thought in mind, Siqi quietly retreated again. As she was about to close the door, he heard the sweet and innocent voice of Xiuju coming from inside, "If you are interested, I can still bear it, Second Master.
This innocent thief!
Siqi hurriedly entered again and forcefully dragged her out.
