It was already late at night and the rain had not stopped. Most shops in the alley behind the market were closed. In the dim rain curtain, two lanterns hanging under the eaves were lit with dim light, reflecting the word "Yang" on the rain-soaked road surface.

On a rainy night in late autumn, there were already no customers on the road. The boss’s wife Meng Hua packed the inside and outside of the shop, stood under the eaves, and looked at the entrance of the back alley.

The little girl may be a little tired, rubbing her eyes and standing next to her, muttering:

"...That chubby sister is so amazing today. She has been to the capital and has also been a constable..."

"I'm not fat..."

"I don't look fat, why does my chest bulge more than my mother? The sister next to me has a normal braid..."

"You will know when you grow up..."

While the mother and daughter were talking, footsteps appeared in the alley. Three men who were working in the escort agency, carrying lanterns and oil-paper umbrellas, walked over while chatting. The leader was Yang Tuyue, who had contacted Changshi Jian in the afternoon.

When they arrived at the shop, the two studs called their sister-in-law in a angrily voice. After Yang Tuyue said goodbye, she put away the umbrella under the eaves, raised her hand and rubbed her daughter's head.

Meng Hua stepped forward to catch the umbrella and tidied up her husband's robe that had splashed some rain:

"Honey, why did you come back so late?"

"Yes, I came here today for a few foreign guests. I was so generous. I ordered all the dishes..."

"The escort agency has something to do, so I went out to have a few drinks."

Yang Yuyue put down her waist knife and sat down by the table beside the window, with food still left on it.

The family of three sat together, Meng Hua served the meal and looked at her husband a few times:

"But the people from the Boat Gang will take their husbands to do big things? Alas~ The Boat Gang cannot go. The sons of several families in the alley went to the Boat Gang to hang out and make money quickly. But if they didn't, they would be gone. The daily harvest of this small shop is enough for the family's expenses..."

Maybe all the wives in the world like to talk nonsense. The little girl next to her has heard it many times, covering her ears and pouting.

Yang Tuyue shook her head and looked plain: "Don't think about it. The boat gang is also a escort. It's not much different from what I'm doing now. What should I do?"

Meng Hua nodded, sat between her husband and daughter, and smiled:

"The escort agencies are all running nearby and come back in two or three days. The boat gang will take you for at least three months or six months. And I heard from guests from all over the country that it is very dangerous to run a boat. There are many bandits in the world. It would be fine if you don't encounter it. If you encounter a boat disaster, you will kill people in order not to be discovered..."

Bang—

Yang Tuyue slapped the chopsticks on the table and looked at her daughter next to her: "The girl is here. The customers in the store know everything, they are all empty talk. I will not listen to it in the future. If I don't go to the boat gang, I will stay in Yueyang and save the girl's dowry."

The little girl laughed: "When will I get married? Today I met an older brother who is so handsome, much handsome than my father..."

"You girl, how can you be your father-in-law?"

"Oh~ Girl is growing up..."

A light in the window was like beans. As the little girl made jokes and the laughter of the small households came into the rain like before. Xu Buling's first day in Yueyang ended in such a plain way...

———

The next morning, the east was white, but the rain did not stop.

On the boat on the lakeside, the escorts of the royal palace began to change shifts. The early maids were making fire in the kitchen to make breakfast, and the girls in each room had not yet got up.

In the past, the first person to get up was Ning Yuhe, a Taoist priest. However, she took care of Xiao Manzhi who was drunk and rolled on the bed last night and insisted on listening to the story. Ning Yuhe worked hard for half a night and had not woken up at this time.

However, Xiao Xianger, who had been insomnia all year round in the palace, got used to getting up late, was the first to get up today and stood on the terrace behind the boat to think about life.

The cold wind in the middle of late autumn blows long hair, and the faint mist and rain make the surface of Dongting Lake look hazy and ethereal like a dream.

Xiao Xiang'er held the railing with her hands and gently rubbed her slightly sore legs, with a bit of embarrassment in her seductive eyes.

What happened last night? What did I say...

Xiao Xiang's lower lip was bitten at times, and looked back at him, not daring to enter the house.

Yesterday she took the medicine prepared by Zhongli Jiujiu, and in order to try the effect, she drank it with Xu Buling.

Judging from her feelings, she didn't find any effect on the medicine, and she didn't even feel it.

But from the perspective of the effect, it was obviously amazing. She shook all the words in her heart. What she liked to like to be more domineering at first sight, and detoxified is all excuses...', what she should have said, Xiao Xianger is such a shameless woman.

But she just said it, and remembered it clearly. She felt that she had no brains when she spoke. She just wanted to speak, she wanted to pour out the things in her heart and listen to the person she liked the most, she hoped to be recognized and satisfied, and she hoped to see the touching look in the other person's eyes...

That's fine. Anyway, I'm just talking about the truth, but I'm a little bit stingy, but in the end I got under the quilt, I was too much...

As long as my brother likes it, you can do it anywhere...

Let my brother be the god, the baby wants nothing, I will be satisfied if I don’t leave it alone...

I'm gonna be!

He thought beautifully...

Xiao Xiang'er frowned and never thought she was that kind of stupid woman. She was the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family in Huainan. How could she be taken honestly by a man? It seems that there is something wrong with this medicine and you can't take it in the future... It's almost the same for Hongluan...

But Xu Buling must have remembered that guy, what should I do if I make this joke...

Murdering your husband?...It's definitely not...

By the way, I pretended to be dizzy... I said I couldn't remember it. It was not the first time I didn't have a document last night, so why do you do to me...

Xiao Xiang'er just thought about it, her expression constantly changed, and she slowly calmed herself down...

In the inner room of the bedroom, the candles on the dressing table were burned out, and the sky was not bright, and the light was still dim.

Xu Buling was awake, sat by the bed, holding his forehead with both hands, and his posture was similar to that when he met Miss Xiao by chance.

"What the hell..."

Xu Buling's cold eyes were puzzled and his brows were tight, thinking about what happened last night.

Food, sex and nature are all about emotions and etiquette.

Xu Buling never regards himself as a gentleman, but he still attaches great importance to etiquette. The biggest difference between humans and animals is to control nature and desires, that is, to cultivate oneself; and the so-called "ritual" is a manifestation of controlling one's desire.

But last night, Xu Buling was obviously rude.

First, I couldn't control my mouth, and I said everything I should say or not, it would be fine. I even shook my mind after touching Aunt Lu several times, and even told me a lot of messy things, such as the plane, cannon, and TV, claiming to be the Northwest Wild Teddy...

Xu Buling Qinglong's eyebrows were full of love, and he was just thinking about it, but how could he say it out loud?

How should the baby explain it when asked...

Looking at the wine pot next to him, Xu Buling narrowed his eyes slightly.

Why don't you pretend to be drunk?

Just a little wine, how can you get drunk...

By the way, I drank a lot in the shop yesterday...

Stepping on—

While Xu Buling was thinking, Xiao Xiang'er walked into the house from the terrace.

When she found that Xu Buling had woken up, Xiao Xianger's tangled face was slightly stiff, and she hurriedly posing in a dignified and elegant manner, and said softly:

"Was awake so early?"

Xu Buling rubbed his forehead and smiled: "I drank too much outside yesterday, and my head hurts a little... Did I get drunk last night and talk nonsense?"

Xiao Xiang'er blinked her beautiful eyes, walked up to her and sat down, raised her hand to help Xu Buling press her temple:

"It's not nonsense. It was very good at first... Later, you picked me up, and I... I was dizzy and couldn't remember..."

"oh……"

Xu Buling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, returned to his former cold appearance, with a little smile:

"It's still early, it's raining again, so let's sleep later."

"Um."

Xiao Xiang'er lifted the quilt, lay on Xu Buling's arm, and secretly glanced at the small wine pot.
Chapter completed!
