The next day, Huang Dan was doing the eighth set of radio gymnastics in the garden, and was taken to the inn by a policeman, saying that it was their Boss’s order.
Huang Dan went there. Liu Chu just had breakfast and was not lying on the bed. He sat on a chair and wiped his knife.
“Young Master Song, the case of the restaurant has not been solved yet, so my comrades have no time to take care of me, so I can only trouble you.”
Liu Chu brushed the blade carefully with a cloth, and the cold light passed over his cheek, looking a bit stern, “My injury is on my leg, which makes it difficult for me to move, but nothing else matters.”
Huang Dan asked, “Where will I live?”
Liu Chu’s arm paused, and then continued to wipe the knife, “There are vacant rooms in the inn.”
Huang Dan said, “Can you do it by yourself at night?”
Liu Chu is a martial arts practitioner, with a strong body. Although he was shot in the right leg, he can take care of himself, but he said two words uncontrollably, “No.”
The words that were spoken were the water that was spilled, and he couldn’t take it back, and didn’t seem to be eager to take it back.
Huang Dan said, “Then I’ll live with you, it’s more convenient.”
Liu Chu was stunned, “Okay.”
Huang Dan asked his servants to inform the old lady, saying that he would stay at the inn at night.
The old lady has become obsessed with chanting scriptures recently. Everyday, she almost stays in the meditation room, not knowing whether she is asking for wealth, blessings, or peace.
At night, there was an extra quilt on the floor in the room.
The dignified Eldest Young Master of the Song family made a bed on the floor, and if word spread, the jaws of the townspeople would drop in shock.
The person’s words and deeds were very calm. After spreading the quilt, he took off his coat and lay down, ready to sleep, without any repulsion.
The windows were left open, and the wind that crept in blew out the candles.
The room was plunged into darkness, and Liu Chu’s voice sounded, “Young Master Song? Song Wang.”
He sat up slowly, and kicked the young man on the ground beside the bed with his uninjured foot, “Wake up.”
Huang Dan didn’t open his eyes, “Why?”
Liu Chu kicked the young man on the back again, “Go and close the window and light the candles.”
Huang Dan turned around, “What’s wrong with you?”
Liu Chu’s face was shrouded in darkness, and couldn’t see his expression clearly, but his breathing changed slightly, “It’s nothing.”
Huang Dan went to close the window and light a candle. His sight recovered and he found that the man’s expression was very strange, as if he was nervous, uneasy, and on guard.
When he got closer, Huang Dan saw a black bug on the quilt, with a hard shell on its back, emitting a dark light, lying there quietly, and looked at the man, “Chief Liu, are you afraid of bugs?”
Liu Chu swallowed his saliva and said disdainfully, “There’s nothing to be afraid of bugs. I can kill a nest if I go down with one hand.”
“This kind is very delicious.”
Huang Dan said slowly, “It is rich in nutrition and high in protein content. It is also delicious when fried and crunchy when eat.”
Liu Chu retched, “Stop talking.”
Huang Dan said, “This season, a lot of bugs have hatched and are flying in the woods. I’ll ask Si Mao and the others to find them and fry a plate for you to eat.”
Liu Chu roared, “I told you to stop talking!”
Huang Dan speak in a low voice, “Trembling with fear, still said not afraid.”
The worm that was lying quietly started to move, and crawled into the bed, it seemed that it wanted to share the same bed with Chief Liu.
A drop of cold sweat dripped from Liu Chu’s forehead. He looked around, where is the knife?
Seeing that the man swung his knife at him, Huang Dan escaped without being cut in half, and ran amok in fright, so he went to open the window and let the insect go.
Liu Chu heaved a sigh of relief, once he relaxed, he couldn’t hold his urine anymore, “I want to relieve myself.”
Huang Dan said, “The chamber pot is at the back.”
Liu Chu put on his shoes and jumped forward with one leg.
When Huang Dan saw the man jumping, he thought it was quite funny, he unconsciously bent the corner of his lips, and it was gone in a flash.
As soon as Liu Chu finished urinating and put the lid on the pot, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted at Huang Dan, “Give me the knife!”
Huang Dan hurriedly followed suit.
When the knife was held by Liu Chu, a person broke in through the window. It was the leader of the bandit. He heard the news and knew that Liu Chu was injured. He would never let go of this great opportunity and take the risk to avenge his brothers.
The bandit came in, and when he saw Huang Dan, the murderous intent on his face froze. There were others? He tiptoed to the ground and attacked with a knife.
Seeing that the knife was getting closer and closer to him, Huang Dan stood still, his back was grabbed by a big hand, his body was thrown away, and the sharp blade grazed his arm.
With a shudder of painful nerves, Huang Dan burst into tears immediately.
Liu Chu dragged the young man behind him. Before he could speak, the other party quickly ran to hide behind the screen. He was quite self-aware, knew how to read situation, and would not do stupid things to cause him trouble.
Huang Dan didn’t read, but cried while listening to the sound of metal clashing, not forgetting to judge who had the upper hand by the movement.
“Mr. System, if Liu Chu is defeated by the bandits, will they not let me go?”
System, “That’s what will happen.”
Huang Dan wiped his tears, “Then what should I do?”
System, “Wait.”
Huang Dan, “……”
The fight only lasted for a moment, and the winner was already decided.
Liu Chu could have easily dealt with it, but the bandits specifically attacked his injured foot with sinister intentions. Although he won, the wound was bleeding continuously, dripping down, and a puddle of blood formed around his foot.
“Eldest Young Master, come out.”
Huang Dan came out from behind the screen, the room was full of traces of fighting, the tables, chairs and benches were scattered and overturned, he saw the bandits fell on his bed, the corners of his eyes twitched.
Liu Chu panted against the wall, “You go and stab the knife.”
Huang Dan looked at the man’s blood-stained right foot, and then at the bandit, “He’s dead.”
Liu Chu’s chest heaved greatly, “Not dead.”
Huang Dan sniffed, “Then you go.”
Liu Chu glanced at him, “You go.”
Huang Dan said, “I won’t go.”
Liu Chu cast a look of “what’s the use of you”, and with a wave of his hand, the knife escaped from his palm and plunged into the bandit’s chest on the ground. He couldn’t move anymore.
He can’t sleep on the floor either.
Huang Dan saw that the man raised his head, there was a bloody gash on his face, and there was no emotion in his eyes. The feeling he felt at that moment was different from what he had been in contact with. When he looked again, the man was back to his usual appearance.
Liu Chu supported the wall and went to the chair to sit, not caring about the wound on his leg, “Come and show me the wound on your arm.”
Huang Dan didn’t move.
Liu Chu’s face was full of impatience, “Eldest young Master, do you want me to pull you?”
Huang Dan walked up to the man and asked aloud, “When you killed someone, what were you thinking?”
Liu Chu said, “When people are in a dangerous situation, their minds are blank, and they can’t think of anything. Don’t foreign countries teach this?”
Huang Dan said in heart, if this person doesn’t mock him one day, the sun will come out from the west.
Liu Chu said, “Give me your hand.”
Huang Dan stretched out his hand.
Liu Chu tore off the young man’s sleeve, and what was exposed was a white arm, which was in stark contrast to the wound cut by the knife. He took out a small bottle and poured some white powder on the wound.
“Be patient, it will be fine in a while.”
Only just Huang Dan’s painful nerves were soothed a little, he jumped violently again. He clenched his teeth in pain, and his mouth was full of bloody smell.
Liu Chu pinched the young man’s face to prevent him from biting his tongue. Seeing his tears streaming down his face, Liu Chu couldn’t help, his face twitching, “Young Master, you have only little bit of cut, and you have become mess because of the pain.”
Huang Dan trembled uncontrollably, bent his back in pain, clutched the sides of his trousers, his knuckles turned white.
Seeing the young man shaking, Liu Chu moved over and leaned against him, still mocking, “I really don’t know if you are a man or not.”
Don’t know how long it took before Huang Dan let go of his jaw, sweating all over his body.
Liu Chu threw a handkerchief to him, “Don’t touch the water for three days, try not to lift heavy objects with this arm, and don’t use it if you can.”
Huang Dan wiped his tears and sweat with a handkerchief, his eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse, “Thank you.”
At this moment, Liu Chu actually had the urge to make the young man cry. The louder the cry, the better. He pressed his temples, bowed his head to treat his foot injury, “Don’t be in a hurry to thank me, go ask the guy to fetch water for me.”
Huang Dan glanced at the man’s right foot, and when he focused his gaze, the blood had already spread to the bottom of the table, but the man didn’t respond.
Liu Chu guessed what he was thinking, “What are you looking at, young master, do you think I look like you, crying out in pain at the slightest cut, dying or living?”
Huang Dan, “……”
The guy fetched water quickly, and Huang Dan let him in to take over by himself.
It’s so late, even the foreign doctor can’t be invited.
Liu Chu simply stopped the wound from bleeding, bandaged it with cloth strips, and kicked away the bandit’s corpse on the ground, “Come up to sleep.”
Huang Dan looked at the corpse, “Aren’t you going to take it away?”
Liu Chu yawned, sleepy, “Tomorrow.”
Huang Dan said, “Sleep in the same room with the corpse?”
Liu Chu laughed, “Just say one more word, and I’ll let you sleep head to head with him.”
Huang Dan didn’t speak.
This room is the upper room of the inn. The bed is quite big. Two grown men can lie side by side without feeling crowded.
Huang Dan soon fell asleep.
Liu Chu, who was yawning at that moment, opened his eyes and couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.
His back was a little itchy, so he reached into his clothes to scratch it. When he took his hand out, he accidentally touched the young man’s hair and didn’t take it away.
When Si Mao and the others came over in the morning, they only knew what happened last night when they saw the corpse. They all paid attention to it, and discussed sending people to take turns to be on duty at the door of the Boss’ room.
Liu Chu did not agree.
Just kidding, if there is someone at the door, then the Young Master will have an excuse not to come here.
Everyone saw that Boss insisted on this, so they didn’t mention it any more.
Liu Chu overheard a few comrades talking in the corridor, those who were not married were talking about women in the town, Boss Dai, the daughter of the Ye family, and those who were married talked about their lovers, wishing that the whole world would know.
He heard a comrade talk about his good friend, why his face was so smooth, it looked like it was molded into satin, his hands were white, his body was fragrant, he was afraid of pain, and he liked to cry.
This information outlines a person.
Liu Chu was often dragged by his comrades to drink wine with oiran. Everyone could react after watch a woman, but he couldn’t.
Never experienced it.
For the first time in his life, Liu Chu had the same reaction as his comrades, and finally realized what kind of feeling it was. Not long ago, it was not given by a woman, but by a man like him, a crybaby.
In the few days after that, he intentionally or unintentionally searched similar appearance and temperament for experiments with, but none of them worked.
Men and women all are useless, only a crybaby can.
It was a result that irritated him.
Huang Dan didn’t know Liu Chu’s entanglement, depression, and struggle. He came to take care of him as usual. He wanted to take the opportunity to get information about the case, but he found nothing. Every day he feel so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
It’s fine if you like to lie, but you are also inconsistent, awkward, poisonous, very bad, and has many problems.
Liu Chu contradicted himself, hoped to see the young man, but at the same time did not give a good face, just like this, more than ten days passed, he had important matters, and he will be busy when he could walk around, but unfortunately he couldn’t pretend for two or three months.
Huang Dan saw that the man is able to walk, “Then I won’t come tomorrow.”
Liu Chu ignored it.
When Huang Dan got into the carriage, he felt someone watching him, he twisted his neck back, but there was nothing.
At the window, Liu Chu smacked himself, “Person is all gone, what are you looking at?”
He pressed the window sill and looked down, watching the carriage leave.
When Huang Dan went back, he heard the butler’s report and knew that Ye Lan had come and was in his room.
He was surprised, how could the Ye family let Ye Lan out? Could it be that she figured it out and gave up?
With a stomach full of doubts, Huang Dan went to the room.
For about an incense stick, not only Juan’er, but also other maidservants saw Ye Lan come out of the Young Master’s room, her cheeks flushed, her clothes disheveled, her hair disheveled, and the lipstick on her mouth was all gone.
They were all women, and they knew what was going on at a glance.
Song Yuan Shi soon came over, “Ah Wang, did you touch that girl from the Ye family?”
“We didn’t do anything,” Huang Dan said.
These words are very similar to the guilt of a child who has done something wrong, flustered, afraid of being punished, and dare not admit it.
Song Yuan Shi patted his grandson’s hand, “Just touch it, grandma doesn’t blame you, our Song family lacks a grandson’s daughter-in-law.”
Huang Dan said, “Grandma, I really didn’t…”
Song Yuan Shi interrupted him, “So many people in the mansion have seen it, and it has spread in the town. Ah Wang, whether there is one or not, for that girl of the Ye family, there is only one way. Do you understand what grandma means?”
Huang Dan lowered his eyes, “Understood.”
Song Yuan Shi said, “Don’t worry about the next thing, grandma will help you.”
For the sake of the family’s reputation and his daughter’s reputation, Father Ye came to the door in person on the same day, put aside his old face, and took the initiative to discuss marriage with the Song Yuan Shi.
Besides, the son-in-law is legitimate son of the Song family, which is too important, if it is others, Father Ye will not be so anxious.
There was an uproar outside.
The young master of the Song family wants to marry the daughter of the Ye family. A talented man and a beautiful woman.
Liu Chu came to the Song residence to look for Huang Dan. He came alone without others. “Young Master Song is getting married, congratulations.”
Huang Dan leaned on the railing to feed the fish, “You came to congratulate me?”
Liu Chu leaned on the pillar, “Yeah, at least we are acquainted.”
He squinted his eyes, smiled and said, “People are really incomparable. Some people are born like dust, ants, and silt, but you, Young Master Song, were born with a golden spoon in your mouth. A wife who is as beautiful as a flower and owns a huge property, these are things that others can only envy.”
Huang Dan looked at the carp in the pond, “You’re not me, how do you know how I feel?”
Liu Chu looked very interested, “Then how do you feel? Tell me about it.”
Huang Dan didn’t make a sound.
Liu Chu joked, “Why don’t you say it? Or do you want me to say it for you?”
He said with a smile, “You’ll be the bridegroom soon, and the wife you marry is still the one you like. Very happy?”
Huang Dan turned his head, “Stop laughing, it’s ugly.”
The corner of Liu Chu’s mouth was pulled stiffly, he stopped smiling, and all the emotions in his heart surged out, “Song Wang, the Old Madam gave me an invitation card, do you think I will come?”
Huang Dan said, “You will come.” There were many people who will came that day, and it was an opportunity to search for clues. It was this man’s duty and he would not let it go.
Liu Chu suddenly lowered his head and walk forward.
Huang Dan remained motionless, watching the man’s face enlarge in his pupils.
The two of them almost touched their noses, and neither of them moved.
Liu Chu retreated first and left.
The policemen all noticed that something was wrong with Boss, very wrong.
“Boss was walking and bumped into the door again.”
“Bumping into the door is a trivial matter. I am worried that the Boss will cut himself when he swings the knife.”
“What do you think happened to the Boss?”
“As a person who has been here, I feel that Boss is like, as if his wife ran away with someone.”
“Nonsense, Boss doesn’t even have a wife, what a fart.”
Liu Chu drank in the room, in a daze, practiced his sword, and would not open the door when anyone came. On the eighth day of the lunar new year, it is an auspicious day for marriage.
The Song family was decorated with lanterns and festivities, and all the dignitaries in the town came over. The accountant was sitting at the door, registering the gift money of the guests there, not only writing it with a pen, but also reporting it.
“Boss Dai, one two hundred taels of silver, a pair of Yu Ruyi!”
The people behind all showed embarrassment. Boss Dai gave so much, so how could they have the nerve to give less?
Boss Dai is dressed like a bride today, her red cheongsam is as white as porcelain, the place that should be plump is very full, the place that should be thin is very thin, the place that should be warped is very warped, shaped like a big peach, as soon as she appeared, she made women jealous and men angry.
She runs the largest restaurant in the town, and she is a charming woman. There are many people who greet Boss Dai.
“Strange, I drank with Boss Dai some time ago, why can’t she remember me?”
“Nonsense, you don’t even look at Boss Dai’s charm. I’ve had a lot of drinks with her. You don’t know where you’re ranked. Think about it.”
“You don’t know, Boss Dai’s memory is famous. Back then, I only met her once, and after seven or eight years, she could recognize me at a glance.”
Liu Chu stood not far away, listening to the conversation of those people.
He fixed his eyes on Boss Dai, who was talking and joking with a man, with a happy face, without any worries, as if it didn’t matter if the restaurant opened or not, the dead Boss Zhang was just a stranger.
The smell of perfume was coming from her, Liu Chu frowned, resist the desire to find the Eldest Young Master, and went to the Old Madam.
Song Yuan Shi was entertaining guests with a dignified demeanor, nothing out of the ordinary.
Head Master Zhao came over with a scholar by his side, he said something to the scholar, and the two of them went to congratulate Song Yuan Shi together.
Not long after, Boss Dai also came.
Liu Chu observed secretly, and Huang Dan also disguised himself, wearing a servant’s clothes, and hid behind to eavesdrop.
In the morning, the welcoming team arrived at Ye Mansion.
Huang Dan was riding on a horse, wearing a wedding dress, and he saw the matchmaker and maid helping Ye Lan out and sitting in a sedan chair.
Palanquin lifted up from the gate, and under the attention of people, it was roaming along the East Street. When passing by the Earthworm River, Ye Lan said that she had a stomachache and wanted to take a rest.
Not long after the line stopped, the matchmaker staggered up to Huang Dan with her skirt in hand, slapped her thigh and shouted, “Young Master Song, the bride has ran away—”
This news made people in the town laugh.
Father Ye sent away relatives and friends with a livid face, and angrily overturned the table, telling all the servants in the mansion to go out and look for her, even if they tied her up, tie her back.
The Song Mansion is fine, What kind of big storm has Song Yuan Shi never seen. This is something she can bear without passing out from anger. She greeted the guests, and comforted her grandson in turns, saying that Ye Lan run away and let it go, ” It’s not you, it’s her that ruins the customs of the family.”
“A woman who treats her life’s happiness as a joke, and doesn’t care about facing other people’s gossip at home, her temperament is not much better.”
Song Yuan Shi said, “Ah Wang, grandma thought that Ye Lan was just a little more open-minded, but she didn’t expect her to make such a big fuss today. Luckily, she didn’t visit to get married, otherwise you will have to lose face to the Song family in the future.”
She felt something was wrong, “Why did Ye Lan run away? Didn’t she propose to marry you?”
Huang Dan said he didn’t know.
Song Yuan Shi said, “Go back to your room first, and we’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Huang Dan closed the door and let out a long breath.
He accompanied Ye Lan in this play, and at this point, his role in the play has ended, and most of the following plots will be performed by Ye Lan and another protagonist.
Back then when Ye Lan came to him, she knelt down to him in the room and begged him for help.
He said yes.
All subsequent developments were almost the same as what Ye Lan said. For this day, she carefully planned for a long time, and finally got her wish.
Huang Dan walked to the bed, lifted the quilt, and was startled by the scene in front of him, he took several steps back, “Juan’er, why are you on my bed?”
Juan’er shivered, her eyes were moist, and she bit her lower lip to make a circle.
Huang Dan’s breathing became rapid, his Adam’s apple slid up and down unbearably, and his limbs and bones were occupied by an inexplicable heat.
The old lady put something in his food.
The old lady didn’t know about Ye Lan’s escape, that is to say, she wanted Huang Dan to sleep with Juan’er first before touching Ye Lan, and then to consummate the marriage with Ye Lan after gaining experience.
This avoids some surprises.
Because there are some people who don’t understand anything, and they are not harmonious enough with the bride on the wedding night, making the bride cry and make trouble, and the two leave, and everyone knows what happened.
Huang Dan wiped his face, now that Ye Lan has run away, but Juan’er is still there, it shows that the old lady is determined to let him experience the relationship between men and women tonight.
The original owner is at this age, and his blood is young. Once he experiences it, he will definitely be out of control. This is the plan of the old lady. Don’t you want it? Grandma will help you. When you taste it, you will know the beauty of it.
The old lady hoped that her grandson would marry a wife and have children soon.
Huang Dan reached out to grab the collar of *Xifu, and undid a few buttons, “Juan’er, put on your clothes and get out.”(T/N: wedding clothes)
Juan’er shook her head slightly.
Huang Dan looked around, she had no clothes, she was stuffed in bed naked.
A figure appeared in the garden. Liu Chu avoided the servants around him and walked towards Huang Dan’s room.
