The Republic of China. A Dream of Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies

Seeing his abnormal expression, Yanlin scratched his hair and smiled silly: "I can fix the car today, and I won't keep it here all the time. After it's repaired, I'll put it in a corner of the backyard. I won't pull the car the day after tomorrow. Let’s rest at home for a few days.” Even the coachman has to reunite with his family during the Chinese New Year, so the streets are quiet during the Chinese New Year.

Pu Ying frowned and asked, "Tell me the truth, was that the inn you sent me to at night more than a month ago?"

Yan Lin was stunned for a while, he thought it was the elder brother who didn't want to mention this matter again, so he pretended nothing happened, but why did he suddenly bring it up again today?

"Well, I saw that you were helped by a woman with a bad reputation and sent you to the inn." He didn't think it was necessary to hide this matter, because he didn't do anything wrong.

Pu Ying looked him up and down, and said coldly: "Come into my room, I want to clarify the matter." He didn't want others to hear that they had had that kind of thing, so he had to invite the other party to his room up.

Yanlin sat on the chair opposite the bed and briefly explained what happened that day. Of course, he didn't mention the details of what happened to him, only saying that the woman probably took the drug.

"I said why my brain was on fire that night, and I can't remember anything." He lowered his head and thought, always feeling sorry for Yanlin. Although he couldn't remember the process clearly, he did it several times. It didn't calm down until dawn.

"Some women use dirty tricks to keep men, you have to be more careful in the future." Lord Che said, he didn't think there was anything wrong, but Pu Ying who was sitting on the bed was very embarrassed.

Pu Ying raised her head and asked softly: "Then...God, why did you leave without saying a word? I'm quite puzzled. I don't know who I slept with all night. Besides, is your butt okay?"

Only then did Yanlin feel embarrassed, and hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "It's nothing...it's okay." It's okay now, but after that day, he didn't go to pull the car for two days, and he barely got out of the car on the third day , I came back after a long time, and I couldn’t run at all. Every time I moved, the back seemed to be split, and I had to secretly go to the toilet to give myself medicine at night.

Hearing this, Pu Ying was a little relieved. He suddenly felt that Yan Lin was not so annoying anymore, and he was quite righteous. He forced a smile on his face, and asked with a playful look: "You don't care about appearances, you are pretty on the bed." Fascinating."

Is this a boast?Yanlin felt feverish on his face, so he had to find an excuse to leave: "I'm going to repair the car, you should rest."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Pu Ying quickly grabbed his arm and said kindly, "I hope you don't tell others about our sleep, okay?"

"I won't say it, and it won't do me any good." Yan Lin gently pushed him away, and strode out of the room.

Sitting on the head of the bed, the elder brother folded his arms and pondered for a long time before he said to himself, "This man is really short-sighted. It's obviously of no benefit to him if I mess with him, so why bother with this?"

But Yanlin, who came back to the yard, didn't have much thought about repairing the car. He didn't understand why Puying would say "you can't look like a person, you are very ecstasy in bed". A man, it's just that he was very unlucky and just happened to catch up. He is not a woman who can get pregnant, so why bother to trouble himself and continue to struggle?

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Viscount Kelso came to pay Lord Belle a New Year's greeting.

The two chatted in the study for a while, and Zai Kun asked Kelso with concern: "Has Yinger learned to do business seriously recently, can you help me?" , things can be done with a little effort.

"Fortunately, I see that he has come quite early these days, sitting in the office and reading materials. He is studying at a business school. He will take him with him when he goes out to talk about things on weekdays. I plan to leave the Shanghai apartment to him. .” The Viscount originally thought that his son was only interested in having fun, but he didn’t expect that these days he would take it easy.

"He is similar to me when I was young. He likes to wander around. When I was in London, I didn't control him too much. Occasionally he would sleep out, but he is a man so it doesn't matter. After a few years, he will marry a wife and have children. I've settled down." Zai Kun felt very frustrated about the matchmaking between the boss and Fang Lian in Shanghai, but after a few days he figured it out again, Pu Ying is only twenty, too young to be engaged so early is not a good thing for his son, Today's society is different from that of the former Qing Dynasty, and late marriage is advocated.

Hearing this, Kelso was very nervous: "What I'm afraid of is that he will go to brothels, sleep with people casually, and get sick."

"Of course I pay attention to this aspect, and I have told him about it. He said frankly that he would not seek someone from Fengyuechang. Don't worry, he is a smart boy, and he will not just find someone to do it. He has high vision." Zai Kun knew that when his son was in England, most of his partners were men, and they were all gentlemen and nobles, so he didn't interfere. He didn't dare to tell the child's mother this, because he was afraid that Kelso would think too much.

"I heard that you and Wu Hai are going to match him and Fang Lian. Is it done?" the Viscount asked. He only knew about it when Liu Ying mentioned it. Why didn't he discuss such a big matter with himself in advance?

Zai Kun sighed and shook his head: "Oh, no, they don't mean that."

"Fang Lian is a very good child. I have chatted with her a few times in the hall before. She is sensible and intelligent. She will be a good housekeeper in the future. Whoever can marry her is a blessing." Fang Lian's singing is not mainly for money, but for I really like this job, and I know how to save the money on weekdays for future use. I don't compare food, drink and clothing. Compared with other actors, it is relatively simple.

"Well, what you said is that I also think that girl is very nice, but unfortunately our son is not lucky. I guess Fanglian must have someone else he likes." Zai Kun put down his teacup after finishing speaking, and deliberately pulled the chair Nearer, sitting shoulder to shoulder with the Viscount.

Kelso subconsciously withdrew his chair, but was still held in his arms by Zai Kun.

"It still smells so good, it's fragrant." Lord Belle stroked the Viscount's soft hair and said softly.

Kelso didn't struggle, and said softly: "You should find a young girl to marry instead of teasing me, an old guy."

"Nonsense, you are so old, you are still so beautiful... There is a small island after a half-day boat ride from Shanghai. Someone built a villa on the island to receive guests. When will we go to the island for a few days? , Arrange the time properly, he won’t know, since you don’t want to come back, it’s always okay to be with me once in a while, right?” Seven years have passed, and he has already looked for someone else, but he has been looking for someone else for a long time. , Kelso is the one who suits him best, now he is the next best thing, as long as he can be with the person he loves occasionally, he will be content.

Kelso raised his head and frowned in embarrassment: "No, it can't be like that." He couldn't make the same mistake again.

Zai Kun pinched his chin and said: "It was fine if you secretly stayed with him back then, but it would be fine if it was me. Don't tell me you really don't love me anymore?" He was still confident about this, otherwise Kyle would Suo wouldn't hug himself and cry for a long time. How can the feelings accumulated over the years of living together be gone.

The Viscount didn't deny it, and kept his head down in silence.

"I know you still love me, that's why I've been waiting for you. Maybe we can be together again by chance, but now it seems that he doesn't intend to let go...I've been waiting for seven years, don't you have the heart Do you still make me sleepless every day?" He was fed up with the days of sleeping alone in the cold bed, and only wanted to sleep with Kelso in his arms again. People are cheap, and they don't know how to cherish them when they have them. Once you lose it, you will regret it all day long.

"I'm sorry, I was too selfish to make you and Ying'er and Xie'er suffer so much!" The Viscount often felt guilty because of the choices he made back then, but he and Jin Kai lived a good life, although occasionally there were conflicts because of small things. Friction, in general they are still very harmonious and happy.

Sometimes, in the dead of night, when he was reading a book or looking at documents in the study, he would think of the days with Lord Baylor, thinking about whether the other party and the two children were doing well, whether the food was to his liking, whether he was sick, etc. , Every time this happens, he will write letters, most of which are greetings, which probably can reduce his sense of guilt!

Zai Kun held his face and apologized softly: "No, the main fault is my fault. I did not think calmly before I attacked you. If I hadn't been so impulsive back then, you wouldn't have gone with him. You don't need to blame yourself .”

Kelso watched him, tears welling up in his eyes without knowing it.

Lord Belle held the viscount's neck and kissed him heartily to comfort the pain of years of lovesickness...

After a long time, Zai Kun released the Viscount's lips, and asked with a smile: "If you don't agree, I will do it now."

"Let me think about it, okay?" Kelso replied hesitantly, not today, it's too easy to conceive these days, and you should avoid sharing the bed with anyone, even Jin Kai. Even the servants at home will make irresponsible remarks if you have a big belly when you are old.

"I've been waiting for seven years, are you afraid of waiting a few more days?" Zai Kun felt that there was great hope, so he pulled the Viscount into his arms and kissed him again.

In the afternoon, Zai Kun called his son into the study and told him: "Tomorrow morning, you will bring New Year's goods to your mother's house to pay New Year's greetings, and give red envelopes to Xi'er and Jasmine. In my name, you should be more polite to Jin Kai, after all, He has been taking care of your mother-in-law."

Sitting opposite to her father, Pu Ying asked with a smile: "When my mother left at noon, I was still reluctant to part with you. What did you say to my mother?"

Zai Kun coughed, pretending to be serious and replied: "After all, we have been husband and wife for many years. Your mother missed the old relationship back then, so don't worry about our affairs. Concentrate on learning to do business. Your mother is still worried about you Looking for someone to sleep outside, afraid that you will get sick, you have to be careful, tabloid reporters are particularly heartless nowadays, if they find out about the scandal of you guys, they will definitely use it as a talking point in the newspaper, it is not good for your reputation good."

Eldest brother nodded and said: "You're right, I've seen those reporters when I was watching a theater in Liyuan these days, and they would talk to you from time to time, it's really annoying, but it's not easy to find a suitable partner, I don't want to start a family so early, to be honest, I don't even know what kind of woman I will marry."

"Of course she is sensible and able to manage the house. She is dignified and virtuous. She doesn't need to be particularly beautiful. A woman who is too beautiful will cause trouble." Zai Kun said earnestly. Kelso was choked away by that guy Jin Kai because he was too beautiful. He doesn't want his son to go his own way, but only hopes that the children can live a safe and happy life.
