The wealthy man who wears books

With a muffled sound coming from the darkness, the bedroom became silent for an instant.

Qin Huai on the bed rubbed his eyes, looking at the figure on the ground with some uncertainty.

In the panic just now, he was indeed frightened by Zhong Xin's sudden embrace of his arm.

Because he was concentrating on thinking, he never imagined how Zhong Xin, who was clearly still asleep just now, would suddenly hug him, and the strength was so great.

In such a dark night, this masculine man, without saying a word, suddenly made such a shocking movement. This was something that Qin Huai, who was already jealous of him deep in his heart, immediately thought of. , it turned out to be the blackening of Zhong Xin in the novel.What made him even more horrified was that after he was blackened, did he no longer even control his lust?

In this chaos, the sudden panic and shock reacted to him, and he stretched out his legs subconsciously, kicking the man off the bed.

Although compared with Zhong Xin, his body and strength paled in comparison, but at this time, Zhong Xin was in a trance state that was rarely seen at ordinary times, with his arms around Qin Huai's body, and he had no defense at all.

So when this unexpected kick came, he didn't have time to make any evasive movements, and he fell off the bed directly, making a muffled sound.

There were still half-dried water stains on the ground washed by the water. Zhong Xin fell firmly on it, the coolness and pain intertwined, which made him let out a soft cry of "hiss" in depression.

This kick is really full of strength.

At this scene, Zhong Xin finally woke up from his trance. He didn't stand up immediately, but squinted his eyes and looked at his sister-in-law on the bed, trying to see his expression clearly in the dim light.At the same time, I also want to sort out what I did just now to make my sister-in-law react so violently.

It seemed that he hugged a warm and flexible body in his arms amidst the emotion of being a fallen person in the world.

And, it seems that he can't help... hugging him very tightly.

Zhong Xin's face suddenly turned hot, from his cheeks to his ears.

"Sister-in-law, I...I didn't intend to do that, I just wanted...to..."

It’s over.

Zhong Xin never thought that there would be such a day that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

He obviously wanted to explain to his sister-in-law that he was definitely not lusting after him, but just wanted to comfort and sympathize with him when he panicked, but the words in his heart changed completely the moment he uttered them. smell.

"Uncle just now, probably...sleepwalking?"

It wasn't until this time, seeing Zhong Xin who was sitting on the ground with an embarrassed expression, and listening to the sound of the rain that was gradually thinning outside the window, that Qin Huai slowly pulled out from the state of complete ignorance.

Although I was not sure for a while, what was the reason why Zhong Xin, who had always had extreme self-control, would suddenly hug him tightly.However, Qin Huai after waking up knew that this hug was completely different from the lustful evil ghosts like Qiu Molin and An Xingsheng who wanted to hug him and wantonly ravage him.

It was a warm and considerate embrace that was completely non-aggressive.

So at this time, looking at Zhong Xin who was full of embarrassment and flustered as he spoke, Qin Huai took the initiative to find an excuse for him.

After all, I just kicked it too hastily.

"Yes, yes, that's about it. That's what I wanted to say just now. At that moment, I must have fallen asleep. I don't know what I did to my sister-in-law. I surprised my sister-in-law. It's really old seven. guilt."

Zhong Xin seemed to let out a long breath.

Unexpectedly, the person who tied the bell would eventually be needed to untie the bell, and the sister-in-law who kicked herself to the ground finally gave herself another straw to save face.

"Uncle didn't do anything, it's just that the hands and feet of the person in the dream were not very honest, just scratching and touching, but I was also a little sleepy, so I lost my mind for a while, so I kicked uncle. Is the meeting going to be all right?"

Now Zhong Xin felt grateful that his steps were not enough, he couldn't manage the pain in his body, so he hurriedly said in a low voice: "My body is rough and thick, so it's okay."

As he spoke, he looked out the window. It was approaching early morning, and the wind and rain all over the sky had dissipated at some point, and there was a hint of fish belly faintly appearing in the sky.

At this time, no matter what, I am too embarrassed to climb into my sister-in-law's bed again.

"It's still early, my sister-in-law should hurry up and rest for a while. I don't feel sleepy now, so I went to the perfume room to have a look."

Hearing what he said, Qin Huai recalled the thought interrupted by Zhong Xin again, and became a little excited again at this moment.

"Uncle's sleepwalking, I didn't feel sleepy at all. Just now, I suddenly had a very smooth idea, and it was related to the perfume that can change the flavor I mentioned. Now that this is the case, I will go there too. Over there, I want to try it out to see if my idea works. If it is really made by me slowly, I would like to take it to the perfume competition."

The idea that Qin Huai thought of just now was really the inspiration that Zhong Xin brought him.

When the masculine scent on Lao Qi's body changes constantly with the temperature between the beds, the male scent that is thick or light, strong or gentle makes Qin Huai stand between him and Si Shi Jin , found a burst of inspiration.

He decided to select some fragrance sources that are extremely sensitive to temperature changes, fully combine and match their chemical components, repeatedly debug, and finally design a perfume that is closely related to temperature changes.

In Qinhuai's vision, the perfume will undergo chemical changes by itself when the human body is in different temperature states, thereby producing different flavors, just like the four-season brocade under different lights, which can always give people a fresh and vivid feeling. impression.

"Can the changing perfume my sister-in-law mentioned really be possible?"

There is still a hesitation in Zhong Xin's eyes.

"Even if it is really concocted, the entire Zhong family must report 'Zhong Osmanthus' to participate in the perfume competition."

Zhong Xin opened the door and said something to Qin Huai in a low voice.

Perhaps he saw Qin Huai's hard-to-disguise excitement and anticipation for that perfume, so he told him a fact in front of him in an understatement.

Qin Huai took a deep breath, the air in the courtyard after the rain was much fresher, and the fragrance of Four Seasons Brocade could be faintly smelled.

"Uncle may think that this kind of perfume is too wonderful, but in my heart, there is a reason. After all, many novel things in this world, when no one notices, often no one dares to imagine the possibility of their existence. Just like that When cars or telephones came from the West, many people were dumbfounded when they saw them and thought they were strange. In fact, they are just rare and strange.”

Zhong Xin looked at him with a slightly confused but convinced look.

"My sister-in-law is right. It turned out that the old seven mice were short-sighted. It's just that if my sister-in-law really mixed this novel perfume, she couldn't participate in the competition. Wouldn't it be a pity? After all, the perfume emperor's choice this time has been the whole Chinatown for many years. It has never happened before, but it is indeed a rare opportunity.”

Qin Huai smiled, "It is clearly written in the paperwork that any Chinese who like to make perfume, whether company or individual, are free to participate. If the An family participates, the Zhong family participates, I do not represent the Zhong family, but only myself How can I not participate in it myself!"

Zhong Xin glanced at him again, and the perplexed expression in his eyes obviously became a little heavier.

The next day, the wind and rain stopped.

When Zhong Yi woke up in the morning, he received a call from the company. After listening for a while, his face darkened.

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Yi lit a cigarette irritably, walked around the room a few times, then called Zhong Xiu, and told her about the news that annoyed him just now.

It turned out that An's Perfume was the first to launch a perfume called "Recalling Chang'an" in the market at the beginning of autumn.It is said that Anjia paid a lot of money to hire a team of experts from all over the world to create it carefully, and invited a master of Chinese studies to name it, and because this perfume is grand and luxurious, has a long history, and has a hint of the legacy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, it chose a name that is very imperial. .

The An family has always been the best at making hype. Various big newspapers, tabloids, famous stars and red corners spread the sky and cover the sky, all promoting this "Remembering Chang'an" for it, and it was in the limelight for a while.

What makes Zhong Yi even more irritable is "Zhong Osmanthus", which is the only one who can fight with him. Recently, there have been several quality accidents, and a tabloid newspaper found out the clues. "The negative news attracted readers' attention.

Although Zhong Yi didn't know if An Xingsheng was doing something strange behind it, but after all, he didn't have the secret recipe in his hands, so he really didn't know how to improve the quality of the perfume.

Zhong Xiu listened to what the second brother said, pondered for a while, and then said:

"Since the situation has reached this point, don't wait any longer. Just like I said yesterday, the wind will stop and the rain will stop now, so let's go and gather the family members. Whether the prescription is on Grandma or on the Which one is hiding in the cracks of the ground, it must be searched out!"

About half an hour later, Zhong Jiu, the patriarch of the Zhong clan, and then the wives of the Zhong family and everyone in the house were notified by Zhong Yi.

The notice only said that today the Zhong family had an extremely important matter to discuss with everyone, but there was no need to go to the meeting hall. After half an hour, everyone gathered in the main room of Bochunyuan, unless there was a serious illness that could not be moved. People are coming.If you don't come and an accident happens, you will be responsible for the consequences.

Zhong Xiu was very thoughtful, after the notice was given, he sent a special car to pick up Zhong Jiu, and on the other hand, he sent the second wife's confidantes and servants to guard the gates of Bochun Garden, and no one was allowed to come out alone.

The notice came in a weird way, and it was very harsh. For a while, everyone was a little surprised when it started from He Yiru.Everyone always had the same idea in their minds, but they wanted to see what tricks Erfang was going to use today.

Qin Huai and Zhong Xin have been busy in the fragrance room since the early morning, from the selection of fragrance sources to the combination of different spices, they have been busy all morning before they have any clues.

When it was time for breakfast, the two of them washed their hands together and planned to go back to the bedroom first.

Just when he left the door of the fragrance room, he saw Ju Sheng running over from the main room, his face was full of worry.

After running in front of the two of them, he panted and said:

"Seventh Brother, Grandma, for some reason, everyone in the family has come to our Poxiang Garden. From the wives to the young masters and ladies, almost all the dignitaries have arrived. I came to find your pawn and listen to them. He said Zhong Jiuye was on his way, and he said he would be there soon. It’s all well and good, and he didn’t say anything, now the second master is the leader, waiting for you in the hall!"

Qin Huai and Zhong Xin couldn't help but looked at each other.

Zhong Xin frowned slightly, suddenly sneered twice, and said in a low voice:

"In the end, some people can't stand it anymore and want to find the treasure of the Zhong family."

Qin Huai's heart moved, and he already knew what he was thinking, so he asked softly:

"Since they came to look for it, how about I wear it on my body? After all, it's a show for them. Why don't we make it more realistic like the one with the surname An, and make them feel that what they found must be a treasure. gone."

Zhong Xin shook his head unexpectedly.

"Sister-in-law just hide the chastity lock on your body, you don't need to wear it next to your body. Don't look at the so-called family members who came here today. In fact, if it comes to ruthlessness, An Xingsheng is definitely not their opponent During the Anjia period, my sister-in-law wore it, and I have a bottom line in my heart to protect you, but today in front of this person, don't look at everyone's well-dressed, golden branches and jade leaves, but if you want to act poison, you are hiding If these people want the things in the skin and flesh, they don't even want face, and they must be checked."

After Zhong Xin finished speaking, Qin Huai was slightly taken aback.

Originally, when he was at An's house that day, Qin Huai still vaguely blamed Zhong Xin. He always felt that he was just using himself as a useful pawn for personal gain. .But listening to what he said just now, it turned out that in his heart, he had actually considered many things related to himself.

It's just that when he heard Zhong Xin talk about what the Zhong family did, he couldn't help feeling a little resentful.Although he is a man, he is still the daughter-in-law of the Zhong family, the young mistress of the big house. Could it be that he can actually strip himself naked for the sake of searching things as Lao Qi said.

He was annoyed in his heart, but he quickly followed Zhong Xin to the hall of the main house.

At this moment, the hall was already filled with prominent people from the Zhong family.

Qin Huai took a look, feeling a little surprised.Except for Yu Tinglan, who was in a bad mood recently, from the patriarch Zhong Jiushi, the wives and daughters of all the houses were present.Even the third young master Zhong Li, who had just woken up, sat beside He Yiru with a blank expression on his face. He was the only one who seemed to be led by Mrs. Bing.

Seeing the two of them enter the door, Zhong Yi, who was sitting on Zhong Jiu's hands, stood up and said coldly:

"Today, I was acting as the temporary head of the Zhong family. I summoned the whole family here, and specially invited Uncle Jiu to come straight to the point. It was just for one thing. As we all know, the eldest brother passed away for many days, and the Zhong family's part in him The ancestral secret recipe of Zhibao has never been heard of. Nowadays, the Zhongjia perfume is frequently in crisis due to quality problems, which has affected the interests of everyone in the Zhong family. There is only one, and that is to thoroughly investigate Bochun Garden, even if we dig three feet into the ground, we must find out the secret recipe of the Zhong family!"

As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall except Zhong Xiu and the second wife changed their faces.

The eldest lady, He Yiru's face turned dark, and she was the first to speak.

"Unexpectedly, the second child called everyone to come over, and it was still the same thing. Why do you seem to have forgotten, I said clearly before, before our family was ready to copy our own, we wanted to copy it, and it was my old woman who said Forget it, in just a few days, you will never forget this!"

Before Zhong Yi could open his mouth, Zhong Xiu stood up with a smile.

"My aunt's words are debatable. I remember the time when I said this last time. It was my wife who said that my elder brother's bones were not cold and the official ruling was pending, so it was not appropriate to do this. But now my elder brother has already been buried. Ann, the official ruling has already been settled, so why didn't you find out the secret recipe early? Everyone here is from our own family, so they naturally know our family's recipe. Our ancestors have set the rules long ago. Only the eldest son is passed on to the male. So when the master passed away, the prescription was passed on to the eldest brother. We have nothing to say. But the problem now is that the elder brother died again, but he has no heirs to pass on the prescription. And how should we deal with it? Isn’t it the most important thing for the whole family to find the prescription and recharge it for public use as the guarantee of Zhong’s company’s income?”

After she finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent.Thinking about it, she had thought it over in advance and thought it through, so when she said these theories at this time, it sounded irrefutable for a while.

He Yiru's face was gloomy, and she and Zhong Jiu looked at each other slightly, and the other party shook her head slightly, and she knew that it was really difficult to veto this girl Zhong Xiu's words for a while.

It's just that He Yiru understands in her heart, she said beautifully, if she finds the prescription, everyone will benefit after confiscating it, but now the whole company is most deeply involved in the second room, the big room and the third room only share dividends, and they can't touch it. Clear the depth of it.If this is the case, wouldn't it be the same as giving the prescription to the second room.

It's just that I want it in my heart, but I can't say these inaccurate things out of my mouth.For a moment, she was speechless, so how could others say anything.

Seeing that no one made a sound in the hall, Zhong Yi took two steps forward and said to Qin Huai and Zhong:

"You two must have heard what the second lady said just now. Now, starting from Uncle Jiu and his wife, everyone has no objection. Naturally, they agreed to find the prescription in your Pochun Garden. Seventh, be a brother To put it bluntly, although you live in the yard, elder brother, and the eldest and youngest mistress also married you, but there are some things in this Pochun Garden that you cannot afford. Do you really want us to do this time? Out of the hands, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, to carry out the thing of ransacking the house?"

The meaning of his words could not be clearer, and he forced Zhong Xin to hand over the prescription by himself.

Just as Zhong Xin was about to speak, Qin Huai suddenly took a step forward and grabbed his arm.

"Don't worry about it, I'd like to say a few words about this."

Zhong Xin glanced at him, hesitated for a second, and finally nodded.

Everyone was curious about what the eldest grandma was going to say at this time, and all of a sudden they pricked up their ears.

Qin Huai's eyes didn't look at Zhong Yi, but turned to meet Zhong Xiu's face.

"Second sister, my sister-in-law is puzzled about something and wanted to ask my sister."

A trace of suspicion flashed in Zhong Xiu's eyes, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all, "Sister-in-law just ask."

Qin Huai smiled slightly and said:

"Whether there is a prescription in Bochunyuan, everyone may know it well, so I won't say it for the time being. I just listened to what my sister said just now. It seems that the premise of the Zhong family's prescription is that it is passed on to the male and not to the female, but I think My younger sister has thought hard and painstakingly for this matter, but I don't know that my younger sister has worked so hard, is it for the benefit of sharing this prescription when she comes back after leaving the cabinet?"

Zhong Xiu's complexion changed in an instant, but he managed to hold back his smile.

"Sister-in-law's question is so unreasonable. It's really a small family's idea. I, Zhong Xiu, am a daughter. I will marry in the court and live in my husband's house in the future. How can I take advantage of this prescription? It's just that my sister-in-law is born Not good, so I probably never thought that the children of our big family would care about the same family and family blood. I want to find this prescription for the benefit of the brothers in the Zhong family. After all, the incense of the Zhong family is Let them continue."

Qin Huai smiled and gave her a thumbs up.

"Second sister is really Lan Xinhui, she always thinks of her brothers, and my sister-in-law admires her very much. Anyway, since my sister made it so clear, I don't want to play riddles with everyone. The second brother just asked the seventh brother for this prescription , How can he get it out? Because the prescription of the uncle was only handed over to me for safekeeping when he was alive, and now it is only on me!"

Seeing that he finally told the truth, everyone thought that under Zhongyi Zhongxiu's persecution, they had no choice but to do so, but Qin Huai suddenly said again:

"It's just that I can hand over this prescription, but how to deal with this prescription has nothing to do with what the second sister said. You need to hear my thoughts!"

When Qin Huai said this, everyone in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't know that today, the old widow and now the Seventh Young Mistress, was forced to fight with the Second Miss.

For a moment, everyone couldn't wait to know what he wanted to say.Only the third young master, Zhong Li, looked lonely, but he was like a weed in the wind, gathering and dispersing at will, without saying a word.
