The wealthy man who wears books

For several days, Zhong Xin came back a little later than usual.

It was the time when the seasons changed from summer to autumn, and the entire Zhong family was busy buying new rice, changing the seasonal clothes of the servants, and repairing the wells and guardrails in the garden that had been damaged by the torrential rain a few days ago.

Zhong Xin knew that at this time, occasionally when he returned to Po Chunyuan, there would be servants in the account room or in charge of purchasing, who would look for him by phone.Therefore, in the past few days, he tried his best to handle the affairs more properly outside, and would rather work hard outside for a while than connect the telephone line.

When sleeping on the bed at night, looking at his sleeping sister-in-law, he would secretly scold himself in his heart.Obviously since childhood, when I do anything, I will think it over and over again, balance the pros and cons, everything will be safe and beneficial, why this time, I can inexplicably pull the phone line down.

But after thinking about it at night, before getting up and going out in the morning, when I looked at the thread on the wall, I thought it was better to break it.

According to the phone call from the foreign devil, the preliminaries of the perfume competition will be held in three days. Zhong Xin knew that his sister-in-law would have to make a final sprint in the next two days, so he hurried to Bochun Garden after finishing the business at hand these few nights. Hurry up, just thinking about it can help him a little bit, which is also good.

Today he went out to do some errands, so he came back directly from the back corner door, a little earlier than usual.When they arrived at the gate of Bochunyuan, they saw an unfamiliar car parked beside the gate. Looking at the license plate, it was even more unfamiliar.

Zhong Xin entered the yard suspiciously, but saw a few girls and women poking their heads in front of the main room door, peeking into the room through the doors and windows.

He pulled his face down, walked closer, and coughed twice.

Since those girls and women were in the hall that day, they saw him smash Zhong Yi's young boy's nose with one punch, and then they realized that the old Qi of Zhong's family was not a kind person, and when he became vicious, he was no worse than Bochun. Yuan's former uncle is much different.Therefore, in their hearts, they became more jealous and respectful towards him and Qin Huai.

Seeing him approaching with a gloomy face at this moment, all of them put on smiling faces, and Qin Huai's close girl, Xiang'er, stepped forward to take the things in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Master Qi came back early today. The reason why these people are here is that Grandma Qi just had a guest. We just made some refreshments and sent them in. It's because that guest is relatively rare, and we usually don't see much in the house. I'm a stranger, so I stayed for a while, to see what's new, so I'm going to do my work."

Zhong Xin frowned when he heard her words, and said lightly:

"Why are guests so rare? The Zhong family is not that small, so why haven't you seen them before?"

Xiang'er hurriedly smiled and said:

"Because it was a tall and big foreigner who came here, and most of the people in the house have never seen foreign devils before, so I was a little surprised. Now that the seventh master is back, let's go in and have a look at the guest, even though he has blue eyes. , the face is very neat."

While speaking, she raised the curtain for Zhong Xin, and took advantage of the situation to glance inside.

When Zhong Xin said the word "foreigner", his complexion sank for a moment, and when she heard her praise that the foreigner was well-groomed, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitched, and when he saw her open the curtain, he walked into the room go.

Sure enough, on the guest seat in the room, there was the Frenchman Brun, with the blue eyes that Xiang'er had just mentioned, staring closely at his sister-in-law's smiling face.

Zhong Xin couldn't help but coughed lightly.

Qin Huai raised his eyes and saw him coming in, quickly got up and smiled at him:

"You came back just in time. I just made a special call to look for you because of Mr. Brun, but there was no sound on the phone. I was wondering, but you came back."

Zhong Xin didn't move when he heard that the phone was malfunctioning. He walked up to Brun, and the two shook hands politely.

Na Bu Lun also came in with Fang Fang, and was about to explain his reason to Qin Huai, but unexpectedly, the other party's husband hurried back, although he still had a smile on his face, he was inexplicably disappointed in his heart.

At this time, when he heard Qin Huai mentioning the phone, he smiled and opened his mouth.

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Zhong, the reason why I took the liberty to visit at this time, to be honest, is because of the phone number you left behind. No matter how hard you try these days, there is no answer."

Zhong Xin happened to be standing by the table. Hearing what he said, he picked up the phone, listened to it very carefully for a while, shook his head, and said:

"No wonder I haven't heard it ringing these days. It turned out to be broken. I didn't pay attention."

Qin Huai looked at his expressionless face, frowned slightly, and said to Brun:

"But I don't know why Mr. Brun is so eager to find us, and even took the trouble to come to the door personally, but why? Could it be that the event has changed?"

Brun nodded to him and said with a smile:

"Mr. Qin is really smart. Because the organizing committee encountered some special circumstances, the time of the preliminaries was temporarily advanced by one day. We have already notified all the contestants. Only Mr. Qin here, because no one answered the phone , I have been unable to get in touch. I was worried that you would miss this precious competition, so I checked the reserved address on the registration form and found it. Fortunately, you are in the local area, so there will be no delay."

When Qin Huai heard the news, he was really surprised and happy, and quickly expressed his gratitude to Brun.

After all, he carefully prepared the four-season brocade. No matter what the result after the competition, it is a kind of test and proof for himself.If it really happened by mistake and missed the opportunity of the game, I must regret it very much.

Zhong Xin on the side simply said a few polite words to Brun, and then fell silent.

Here Bu Lun saw that although he had put in some hard work, he saw that Qin Huai really felt the joy and excitement in his heart.He is a simple and romantic person, seeing Qin Huai's state, he is also happy, and on a whim, he speaks English, talking about the precautions during the competition.

Qin Huai is naturally concerned about these things. Although his English is good, some of the vocabulary that Bren said here are a bit uncommon and rare. At this moment, the two seem to have thrown Zhong Xin aside.

Zhong Xin looked expressionlessly at the two people who were talking about foreign language face to face, but his eyes fell on the empty telephone line on the wall.

In this situation, it was the first time that he was so annoyed that he, who had always acted carefully, would do such a stupid thing as breaking the wire.

As a result of doing so, not only did the foreign devil not stop the contact with his sister-in-law, but instead invited the "thief" to the door in a disguised form.

Foreign devils came to visit Po Chun Yuan, and in the living room of the eldest wife, He Yiru, there was also a guest, Zhong Jiu, the patriarch of the Zhong family.

Ever since Zhong Li and Zhong Feihong mentioned to the two families that they wanted to get married, He Yiru and Zhong Jiu have always wanted to meet again. After all, in the hearts of the two of them, there are really many things that are entangled in their hearts. Only each other, Only then can I complain.

The two of them only asked Ruier to guard the door outside, and did not leave a servant inside. After they felt that they were all right, they got together and started whispering.

Unexpectedly, before she could say a few words of her own, Ruier outside obviously raised her voice and shouted:

"Sixth Lord, Sixth Lord, please wait a little longer, Uncle Nine is talking with his wife inside, and wait for me to report before entering!"

He Yiru and Zhong Jiu looked at each other, both of them had suspicious eyes, and hurriedly moved away from each other, and sat in their seats.

Outside the door, Zhong Zhi and Ruier gave each other a tacit wink, and said loudly on purpose:

"Ma'am, I'm the sixth child. I have something urgent to ask you in person. I don't know if it's convenient for Uncle Jiu and you?"

He Yiru nodded slightly towards Zhong Jiu, then said in a deep voice:

"What's so urgent, come in!"

Zhong Zhi took a deep breath, nodded towards Rui'er, and entered the room.

Rui'er looked at his back with a nervous expression on her face, she immediately closed the door behind him and looked around, as if she was guarding the Sixth Young Master.

When Zhong Zhi entered the room, he first paid respects to Zhong Jiu and He Yiru, but there was a half-smile expression on his face.

He Yiru felt strange in his heart, because he opened his mouth and said;

"If there is something important, Uncle Jiu is not an outsider, so you can just say it."

Zhong Zhi smiled slightly, but first scratched his shiny back with his hands, and then opened his mouth.

"Madam is right. Uncle Jiu is not an outsider. If we talk about it in detail, Madam may be regarded as Uncle Jiu's favorite insider, hehe!"

As soon as he uttered these words, the faces of He Yiru and Zhong Jiu changed color at the same time, and He Yiru's face instantly turned white, stood up abruptly, pointed at Zhong Zhi, and said sternly:

"What kind of bastard are you talking about? Okay, why do you look like you lost your mind and made fun of your elders? I think it's because I have indulged you these days, and I don't care about it, but I want to ride on the elders to do it." Wei is a blessing!"

Hearing her stern words, Zhong Zhi didn't show a trace of timidity. On the contrary, the smile on his face became stronger, his eyes turned on Zhong Jiu's face, and said:

"Ma'am, don't be too quick to get angry. There is no one else in this room except the three of us. That's all I said. You all know me. Although I don't have the skills of the elder brother and the second brother, I only talk about one tongue. But it doesn't necessarily mean that they lost to others. If what I said just now was really crazy, how dare the sixth son say it so easily. Uncle Nine, you are the most honest and honest person, so you think I just said that , compared to what some people have done, isn't it a jerk?"

After he finished speaking, He Yiru and Zhong Jiu looked at each other, and they understood in their hearts that the Sixth Young Master in front of him, who always gave people the impression of a playboy, was completely different from him at this moment. The concealment between the two of them is obviously going to be discussed.

At this moment, Zhong Jiu's expression changed from the startled one to the usual calmness.

"Lao Liu, when you suddenly say these things at this moment, it's nothing more than following some old things and wanting to make some articles. The only thing is, you just think you know something, it's always just hearsay and random guessing , Is there any ironclad evidence to cover the coffin? Let me put it bluntly again, there are no old sesame seeds and rotten millet in someone's granary. Who is making fun of. Thinking about how long the second young lady’s child has been missing, the second child forced her to wear a chastity lock. What is the purpose? Who is it to prevent? Everyone knows it well, some people don’t pretend to be okay Same!"

Zhong Zhi had known for a long time that in the entire Zhong family, Zhong Jiu was the most scheming and scheming, and he was extremely difficult to deal with.It's just that since he has dared to come here to challenge him now, he has already thought carefully these days, and he has thought over everything he can think of.

Just like the secret relationship between himself and Yu Tinglan, it was already a rumor in Zhong's house before, so he had expected that the other party would use this to fight back against him. Now that he heard it, he was not afraid, but laughed road:

"On the contrary, Uncle Jiu made it clear that in the gate of this big mansion, some sneaky things happen, so don't make fun of anyone. But there is one thing, like me, Zhong Zhi, even though he is flirtatious and behaves badly, he just Climbing flowers and breaking willows, there is no trace of the incident. It is not like some people steal chickens and steal chickens, but want the chicken to lay eggs, which is really causing endless harm."

As soon as he said these words, Zhong Jiu's expression changed in an instant.Zhong Zhi saw it, and didn't allow him to speak again, so he followed up and said:

"However, this will cause endless harm. I'm exaggerating. Now that third brother and that girl Feihong heard that they were going to get married, but Uncle Jiu and his wife didn't come forward to stop them. Thinking about it in your hearts, this pot of mixed porridge will be boiled again and again." If it is rotten, it will only rot in the pot. Anyway, it is self-knowledge of bitterness and happiness, and it is just a pot of chaos. But why I, a brother, can't understand that there are such parents in this world, knowing that the younger generation may be broken Lunchang, but not stopping it, really is disgusting, so let me, a brother, tell the truth to those who don't know, lest they get into a quagmire and don't know it!"

Zhong Zhi's words were a naked threat, and to Zhong Jiu He Yiru's ears, it really seemed like a thunderbolt.

The two of them did everything possible to conceal this matter, and they even did not hesitate to let the two children take the pill of Duan Zi, and they did not try to stop the marriage. In any case, they can no longer be stimulated with such harsh facts. If these two people know such cruel truths, they will probably be close to death.

Therefore, at this time, Zhong Jiu slowly stood up from his seat, looked at Zhong Zhi with gloomy eyes, and said:

"Sixth Young Master doesn't need to point fingers at Sang Huai and threaten us. There is no outsider at this moment, and we don't need to hide it. Just say what you want, that's all."

Zhong Zhi laughed twice, gave Zhong Jiu a thumbs up, and said:

"After all, it's Uncle Nine, and it's easy to understand when you say it. Well, I won't go around with the two old people anymore. What I want now is for my wife to announce to the public that she will officially take back the authority of that bastard old seventh. I will be in charge of it, and I will privately donate the shares held by my wife to me for safekeeping. Of course, I want these, just to show some filial piety to my wife on behalf of the dead brother. After all, the old seven is born like this He's lowly, how can he be worthy of holding such great power in the inner house. As long as Uncle Jiu persuades his wife and agrees to my request, everything will be easy to talk about. Otherwise, those tabloid reporters who are worrying about having nothing to talk about will probably launch it immediately' Let’s talk about hot topics such as the decades-old affair between the patriarch and his wife,” “the unbearable future of uncle and niece” and so on!”

As soon as Zhong Zhi's words fell, He Yiru on one side had already pressed his heart, his face was pale, and he frowned in pain.

Zhong Jiu stared at Zhong Zhi silently for a few seconds, and finally nodded.

"Okay, since you also know that my relationship with the eldest wife is very shallow, then I will promise you on her behalf. Tomorrow morning, I will call the Zhong family and announce this in public. How about it? Just don't forget, The prescription of the Zhong family is still in the hands of Lao Qi and his wife, if he is pushed into a hurry, the prescription is really destroyed, or if it is wrapped up and left, the loss will be great!"

Zhong Zhi was stunned, his brows furrowed, and he secretly thought in his heart that this old bastard Zhong Jiu was more thoughtful, and he only wanted to seize power from him and the eldest wife, but ignored this matter.

Zhong Jiu glanced at him and said again:

"In my opinion, it's better to stabilize Lao Qi and the other two first, share half of his power with you, and wait until you win the prescription, and then make a fuss."

Zhong Zhi pondered for a while, and finally nodded.

When he finally went far away from He Yiru's courtyard contentedly, Zhong Jiu squinted his eyes and looked carefully outside the door for a long while. When he saw that Lian Rui'er was not around, Fang closed the door and walked slowly to the door. He Yiru hugged her gently, and whispered in her ear in a very low voice:

"Don't worry, autumn is getting stronger now. Although the grasshopper after autumn jumps high, it doesn't take a few days to jump."

After Bu Lun left Zhong's house with some reluctance, Qin Huai couldn't help becoming a little nervous because the preliminaries were moved up a day.

He was worried that there were still a few things he wasn't sure about in the perfume, so he wanted to test it one last time tonight.

It's just that when he was debugging last time, he completely tossed Lao Qi off his feet, so he thought about it for a while, and decided to do this experiment himself tonight.

Seeing him come back from the perfume room, Zhong Xin was holding the bottle of 'Four Seasons Brocade' in his hand again, he was taken aback for a moment, and immediately thought of the scene where the two of them were experimenting with perfume that night, but he didn't know what happened to his sister-in-law tonight? Don't let yourself be the experimenter of the fragrance again.

He was thinking about this in his heart, but he saw that Qin Huai had already walked in front of him, and handed over the bottle of perfume.

"Uncle, tonight I still have to test the change of this perfume for the last time. This time, I will try the fragrance instead. Uncle, you will be in charge of observing."

Zhong Xin's eyes brightened slightly, he took the perfume, and his eyes lightly fell on Qin Huai's neck.Because he remembers very clearly that the last time when he tried the fragrance, the first place was the neck behind his ears, and then his upper body, wrists, and soles of the feet...

He suddenly felt a little hot on his body.

"Uncle, let's rest on the bed first, and when I come back after taking a shower, I will start the experiment from the temperature at that time."

After Qin Huai said that, he went to the inner room. Zhong Xin looked at his back, and for some reason, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He threw the perfume on the bed, took off his outer clothes, and got into the brocade quilt among.

After waiting for a while, Zhong Xin closed his eyes, tapped his fingers on the perfume bottle, but suddenly heard Qin Huai's voice next to his ear.

"Uncle, I've already washed it, and my body is so cool right now, so you can spray some on it in front of me first."

Zhong Xin opened his eyes suddenly, and sure enough, Qin Huai had already come out of the shower, and he was only wearing a set of snow-white small clothes, which were probably made of fine silk, soft and thin, and seemed translucent under the lamp.The little gown was in the style of pajamas, and the trousers were just below the knee, revealing two slender legs.

At this time, because he told Zhong Xin to spray perfume in front of him, the snow-white little coat was opened, revealing a dazzling spring light.

Zhong Xin only felt that the man in front of him didn't use any perfume, but the after-bath fragrance that came from his body, and he couldn't help but want to take a few more sips.The situation in front of him is not like lying in a brocade quilt, but like sleeping on a fire pit, his whole body is hot and uncomfortable.

At this moment, he could control himself again, but his eyes could no longer be separated from that patch of spring, and beads of sweat kept dripping from the palms of his hands.

"Uncle, what are you waiting for? If you don't spray it over, I'm afraid that the temperature on my body will change first."

Hearing what he said, Zhong Xin gritted his teeth secretly, got off the bed little by little, walked slowly to Qin Huai, and sprayed the perfume in his hand on Qin Huai's body a few times.

The smell of 'Four Seasons Brocade' permeated the air, mixed with the fragrance of Qin Huai's body, it was indescribably wonderful for a while.

Qin Huai brushed his fingers lightly over his chest, feeling that the perfume had penetrated into his skin. He looked at Zhong Xin who was expressionless but somehow strange, and said softly:

"Uncle is now here to smell it. Has the scent changed from before?"

Zhong Xin looked at the position where his finger was brushing, and thought that he was going to lean over to smell the fragrance right now, and suddenly he felt a buzzing sound in his head, and he closed his eyes, completely lost consciousness, and stretched straight towards Qin Huai. go.
