Chapter 29: 來信 …
[The Coming Letter …]
Seeing Tang Xiaobao angry bulging like to gas himself into a puffer fish style, Ji Ling was amused, pulling up his soft hand in his palm to play with. Seeing him, drawing yet not draw back, he became more and more angry, said carelessly: “Those things are not that valuable, that is that they have no knowledge. Can’t bear to part with the child, can’t catch the wolf*you cannot achieve a desired outcome without taking some risks or making some sacrifices.” Originally did not want to find them trouble, who knows that he ran into them. Those things that Tang Xiaobao did not get back, as his husband’s he will help him get back one by one.
After seeing himself, Tang Xiaobao still looks like he is very angry. Ji Ling will pull the person to sit on his lap, in his bright eyes, kiss him, until the person in his arms is softened before slowly letting go of him.
“Not angry anymore?” Ji Ling touched his soft waist, asked softly. “How come you didn’t have the ability to do this just now there, but in my place, you became so cross (unruly). You know how to judge people’s dishes ah, could it be that I have pampered you too much.”
Hearing Ji Ling’s words, Tang Xiaobao was a bit embarrassed. After thinking for a while, he thought that it should be the original owner’s instinct, because the original owner is also a soft and sticky little brother, being wasted by those two people for so long, that is, the impact on the soul and physical torture, it is inevitable for him to meet again so he subconsciously want to avoid.
Seeing that Tang Xiaobao didn’t say anything, Ji Ling came closer and closer.
Tang Xiaobao looked at the enlarged face in front of him, and thought that recently Ji Ling really likes to use the beauty plan to seduce him more and more, and he was so addicted to beauty that he couldn’t say anything else at all.
Seeing Tang Xiaobao’s mood changed for the better, Ji Ling then cuddled him again and slowly said, “Hate them?”
“Hn.” Although he is not the original owner, he also does not like those two women, obviously the original owner died because of them, why can they still pretend to be so innocent to get close. By saying so, suddenly feeling himself was too useless, neither could he help, but instead caused Ji Ling to lose two sets of jewellery, and did not want to help the original master to get back justice. He put his head against Ji Ling’s shoulder and said in a small voice, “Am I too useless?”
Don’t know why Tang Xiao Bao was so depressed, the only possibility that came to mind was that the two people he had just met reminded Tang Xiao Bao of those bad experiences he had in the past, and estimated that he had really suffered a lot before he met himself, so he touched his head.
“No, you’re very useful, if it wasn’t for you, I’m afraid I would have been a pile of withered bones long ago.”
Hearing Ji Ling’s words, Tang Xiaobao’s hand around him got tighter and tighter, and then his brain rubbed against him, speaking in a low, muffled voice, “You know it all?”
“If I didn’t guess it, how could I protect you?” He once let someone look at, those dishes did not add any drugs, nor any other ingredients, the only explanation but also very absurd is that the dish itself has the ability to heal, but this is too incredible and unimaginable, if not his own body gradually improved, he was afraid that he did not believe. This is also why those underlings are afraid to eat Tang Xiaobao’s cooking, and have such a miracle, how not to let the human heart desire? The people in the mansion only thought that his husband was strict and did not like his husband’s labour, who guessed there is also another reason for this?
“Don’t you think it’s strange?” Tang Xiaobao thought that for the ancients, being able to cure an illness by eating vegetables should be a particularly miraculous thing. He was a little worried that if Ji Ling found out and asked him how he should answer, but he didn’t realise that Ji Ling actually knew about it already.
Ji Ling touched his head, just now in the Tang Mansion said words are not all lies, at least said that they will send Tang Xiaobao over, so that he got a good little husband is not a lie. If it’s not Tang Xiaobao, I’m afraid that not long ago, the world has not Ji Ling this person, originally the early death of the elephant he has been too long to hold out, so long that even others think it is a miracle, not to mention not only survived, his body is also become stronger.
“Not surprisingly, I’m grateful.” Grateful that this silly thing headbutted into his arms, Ji Ling hugged him and rubbed his nose against his white neck.
Being touched by Ji Ling like this, Tang Xiaobao felt a little embarrassed. So he quickly supported Ji Ling’s shoulder, separating the two of them. Looking at Ji Ling with a flushed face, he said in embarrassment, “Actually, I originally had a selfish motive.”
Ji Ling reached out and pressed his neck, pulling him closer, and then kissed him gently, “It doesn’t matter, you are finally taking advantage of me now, you are my little husband.”
On the road of floating flowers, except for the ambiguous breath vaguely reachable from the carriage, only the rattling of horses’ hooves around remained.
Back in the mansion, everything was the same as before, except Tang Xiaobao thought of all the grievances the original owner had suffered and wondered if he could think of a way to help him get them back. Even if you can’t get it back, those things belonging to the original owner can’t give advantages to outsiders. Due to the lack of experience in fighting, Tang Xiaobao did not have a good solution for a while, he knew that if Ji Ling’s words must be a solution, but he could not take this small matter to trouble him, after all, he is also very busy now.
Due to the fact that he had been worrying about this matter, when he was cooking, he was a bit distracted, even Ji Ling had noticed, but looking at Tang Xiaobao, he didn’t look like he wanted to open up, so Ji Ling also chose not to ask.
Green Lotus observed for a while, thought about it, but still asked. “Is there something troubling you, madam?”
Tang Xiaobao took a look at the little maid who had been following her, and thinking that it wasn’t a big deal, she opened her mouth, “Green Lotus, if your father died in your house, and your stepmother sold you, and you now want to get back the part that belongs to you, what should you do?”
Hearing Tang Xiaobao’s words, Green Lotus then laughed, her young madam was really naive. In this world, where can women live as they wish? Even the young lady of a high family’s house, her marriage is not half by herself, let alone the daughter of a commoner’s house. Just looking at Tang Xiaobao staring at her own face, he definitely can’t let him be sad, so he softly said, “I think the young madam should go and ask the young master, after all, the young master is so smart, he will surely have a way.”
“Alright, but Ji Ling has been very busy lately, I don’t want to bother him.” Tang Xiaobao touched his face, a little embarrassed. Besides, now that Ji Ling kisses him whenever he moves, every time he kisses him, he forgets what’s going on. After saying that, looking at the diligent maid beside himself, he asked with interest, “How come I haven’t heard about what’s going on in your house?”
Green Lotus smiled gently, her tone as soft as ever, “My parents are alive at home, I have a younger brother and two older sisters. Later, my little brother needed to marry, so he sold me here.”
Hearing Green Lotus’ words, Tang Xiaobao felt that he had asked the wrong question, and then looked at Green Lotus with embarrassment, wanting to say sorry, but he had not yet opened his mouth. He heard Green Lotus continue: “I think it is the most fortunate thing to come here, after all, then the women in the family are letting people squander away, I came here, many people are very envious.” After saying that, revealing a genuine smile, looking at Tang Xiaobao revealing a sly smile, saying in a horrible tone, “Young madam, I’m afraid you don’t know, like our kind of small place, some female babies are drowned once they are born.”
At once, Tang Xiaobao got goosebumps, then waved his hands around for a while, as if he wanted to dislodge something he couldn’t see around him, then looked at Green Lotus, looking a bit shocked, “Isn’t it good to be a girl? Why do you have to do this kind of thing?”
Seeing Tang Xiaobao like this, Green Lotus pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. If it was another master, she would have been beaten when she said this, only her own young madam would be so kind. This kind of master, how can you make him unhappy? Thinking of this, green lotus just did not say that, even with the smooth growth, those women’s fate is only the mother’s family’s casual exchange of money goods. After all, when people are poor, sometimes even their humanity is gone.
The thought was only fleeting, and then looking at Tang Xiaobao, who was still a bit surprised, Green Lotus opened her mouth to talk about some interesting stories in the countryside, which also had some flavour. Unconsciously, Tang Xiaobao had forgotten about the incident just now. When he heard something funny, he couldn’t stop laughing.
Just when the master and servant were in harmony, a maid came in and delivered a letter.
Stopping laughing, Tang Xiaobao looked at the very familiar envelope, but it did not look like his hesitation from previous, looked at it for two seconds, then opened the envelope. Looking at the words inside, he instantly became angry and bulged, obviously very unhappy.
“What’s wrong with the young madam?” Looking at the person who was fine just now, but now changed his face, Green Lotus went up and asked carefully.
Tang Xiao Bao, lying there, turned his head to look at Green Lotus, his tone carrying a little bit of displeasure, “There are annoying people who want to come to the house as guests.”
Associated with the thought of the person who sent the letter and the last time something like this happened, Green Lotus instantly thought clearly about the key people, and seeing Tang Xiaobao frowning, she suggested, “Since Young Madam doesn’t like them, and doesn’t want them to come to the door, let them not come to the door that’s it. If they do come to the door, just let them feel unhappy, moreover Young Master will not blame you.” If she hadn’t guessed correctly, they were just poor relatives that the door didn’t want to recognise, or poor persistent relatives that weren’t pleasing to the eye. She knew that, her family’s young master, was only indulgent toward Tang Xiaobao.
Tang Xiaobao pondered for a while, and felt that Green Lotus’ words seemed very feasible. But this is his and Ji Ling’s place, he did not want that evil woman and her daughter to come over, so he waved towards Green Lotus and asked him to run an errand for himself.
When Green Lotus went to ask Ji Ling with his message, Tang Xiaobao sat there with a determined look on his face. Last time, he lost the battle, and only after Green Lotus’ advice did he finally realise what they were up to. They originally thought that they just wanted to use the excuse to get some advantages, who knew that actually liking Ji Ling, really having bad intentions. No matter how he looks at it, he will not let them succeed.
