Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 457 Xiangyun: Listen to my brother-in-law

Inside the side room, the maid Cuilu stood by with her delicate head slightly lowered, watching the infatuated prince and girl from under her willow-leaf brows, her pretty face flushed, and her heart was filled with shock.

Why did the prince pull the girl and start to eat her for no reason? Aren't they sworn brothers and sisters?
But having said that, after all, they are not relatives, so it doesn't matter. Cuilu is also happy for the girl. Her girl is not valued in the Shi family, and only in the prince's mansion can she behave like a lady from a noble family. Now that she is with the prince and knows how to be a good person, the girl doesn't have to worry about being treated badly in the future. Isn't that a good thing?

Gazing at the prince's handsome face, Cui Lufang's heart beat fast, and a feeling of hope and joy surged in the depths of her heart.

The prince's character is what the maids dream of. As the girl's personal maid, it would be a natural thing for her if the girl followed the prince.

While Cuilu was daydreaming, Xiangyun was leaning in the young man's arms, her delicate body was already soft, her plump face was gorgeous like clouds, her bright red lips were sparkling, and her lips were slightly red.

The bright eyes under the willow-leaf eyebrows glanced at the boy, her eyebrows were full of shyness, and she scolded: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing..."

He is pulling her hand and kissing her. What is going on?

Shui Rong held the girl's shoulders and chuckled, "Don't you think Sister Yun doesn't like it?"

Before, Xiangyun did not resist, and even slightly raised her head to facilitate the man, allowing Shuirong to grab it, and there was no anger at that time.

Xiangyun felt very embarrassed when she heard that, and her slightly chubby face flushed red. She didn't know why, but she was dazed by her brother-in-law's gentle breath, and she felt an indescribable touch in her heart.

It's not clear if she likes him, but Xiangyun knows that she doesn't hate him. It's just that how can she say it? It's so embarrassing.

Her crystal clear eyes were filled with mist and sparkling light. Xiangyun twitched her upturned nose and said in a voice that was a little tearful: "Brother-in-law, you are bullying me."

How should she deal with being bullied by her brother-in-law?

Shui Rong lowered his eyes and looked at the aggrieved girl, and asked softly: "Sister Yun doesn't like her brother-in-law?"

Xiangyun was startled when she heard this. She looked up at the young man, then lowered her head again. She twisted the embroidered handkerchief in her hands with her white hands. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she hesitantly said, "I like you. Of course I like you, but not that kind of like."

Xiangyun naturally liked the "brother" who treated her kindly, but in her heart she thought it was the love between brother and sister and did not think about anything else.

Shui Rong stared at the shy girl and understood what was going on. The girl was young and ignorant, and had only a vague understanding of feelings, so it was difficult for her to distinguish them. Under the premise of their sworn sibling status, Xiangyun naturally presumed that it was a sibling relationship.

However, the girl showed no resistance before, and was even quite accommodating. These were all subconscious actions, indicating that Xiangyun was subconsciously happy.

After a moment of silence, Shui Rong immediately released his hand around the girl's shoulders and said, "Brother-in-law is a bit abrupt. Otherwise, Sister Yun, just pretend nothing happened, okay?"

"Brother-in-law, you."

Xiangyun's heart was filled with shame and anger, her cheeks flushed red like fire, her fingertips twisting the embroidered handkerchief turned white, and her bright eyes under her willow-leaf brows widened and misty.

You kissed me so hard that it hit my mouth, and now you tell me that nothing happened. What about her innocence? Your brother-in-law is too bullying.

Shui Rong took the girl's hand and said softly, "It's not okay to like your sister, and it's not okay to dislike her either. So what does Sister Yun want her brother-in-law to do?"

"This"

Xiangyun's heart was trembling, and she lowered her head slightly. Her bright eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows stared at the small hand held by the girl. Her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to say.

How could she know what to do?

Shui Rong felt amused when he saw Xiangyun, who had always been generous and outspoken, was embarrassed and speechless. After all, she was a girl and would always feel embarrassed when encountering major events in life.

Thinking back to the past, the handsome Tanchun and the straightforward Daiyu were all like this, and they were all dealt with by Shui Rong. It would not be easy to deal with this young girl Xiangyun.

With a smile on his lips, Shui Rong said softly, "Since Sister Yun doesn't know what to do, why don't you listen to your brother-in-law?"

Xiangyun's heart trembled when she heard the words, and her bright eyes flashed under her willow-leaf eyebrows. She thought about how her brother-in-law had bullied her before. If she listened to her brother-in-law, wouldn't she be walking into a tiger's mouth?
Thinking of this, Xiangyun's heart began to beat fast, but she didn't know why. Even though she knew that the young man had bad intentions, she still snorted through her upturned nose, and a hint of red appeared on her plump face.

Seeing this, Shui Rong smiled knowingly, and without saying anything else, he stretched out his hand to pinch the girl's chin and gently lifted it up, staring at the girl's rosy cheeks, which were dotted with rosy red, like a blooming red plum.

Xiangyun's delicate body trembled, her bright eyes under her long eyelashes were full of water, and her heart was filled with shyness.

Why did her brother-in-law pinch her chin for no reason? Was he going to...
"Sister~"

Before she could finish her words, the young man came closer, making Xiangyun unable to speak clearly. She subconsciously closed her beautiful eyes, and the familiar warm breath came towards her again.

Just as she thought, her brother-in-law wanted to kiss her.

The girl was feeling embarrassed at this moment and tried to push him away symbolically with her hands, but when she saw that it had no effect, she simply gave up and raised her head slightly.

Shui Rong understood what was happening. At this point, whatever she said was just empty talk. She could just express her attitude through actions. So, she didn't hesitate to put her hands around the girl's waist, pried open her teeth, and grabbed her wantonly.

But after a while, Xiangyun seemed to remember something, her beautiful eyes widened, and she pushed the boy away with strength that she didn't know where she got from.

"Bah, bah, bah, brother-in-law, you haven't rinsed your mouth yet."

Xiangyun spat several times, her rosy cheeks full of disgust.

Previously, Xiangyun was distracted by her brother-in-law and did not think much about it for a while, but now she came back to her senses. She remembered that her brother-in-law had served Baoqin before and did not even rinse his mouth. This does not mean that she indirectly ate such a filthy place.

Especially when I think of the first time I entangled with my brother-in-law, it was like a vine wrapped around a tree. At this moment, I really felt my stomach churning.

Shui Rong looked at the girl's nauseous expression, his beautiful face was slightly startled, and then he remembered that Xiangyun had peeped at her before, and thought that she knew that he had served Baoqin.

After a pause, Shui Rong said softly, "Sister Yun and Sister Baoqin have a deep friendship, so why are you looking down on them now?"

Xiangyun was so ashamed and angry when she heard this, her cheeks flushed like clouds, her willow-leaf eyebrows stood up, and she cursed, "Brother-in-law, don't make up your mind."

She has a close relationship with Baoqin, like sisters, but how can this be compared? They cannot be taken seriously at all.

Shui Rong reached out and took the girl's soft little hand, trying to lead her to him. However, Xiangyun was annoyed and would never obey. When Shui Rong exerted a little force, she fell into Shui Rong's arms.

At this time, Shui Rong hugged Xiang Yun's waist, suppressed the girl's restlessness, and said in a gentle voice: "Sister Baoqin and Sister Yun are as pure as snow in your heart. What is there to dislike?"

Xiangyun's rosy cheeks were flushed like clouds, and she was secretly angry.

Even if she is as pure as snow as my brother-in-law said, that is not enough. Wait, my brother-in-law said that she is the same as Baoqin. Does that mean my brother-in-law has to treat her the same way he treats Baoqin?
Thinking of this, Xiangyun's heart trembled violently, and the straight hair under her skirt couldn't help but slightly close together. She was too embarrassed to look directly at the boy.

Shui Rong's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Since my brother-in-law bullied my sister, he must be responsible. I wonder what Sister Yun thinks?"

Xiangyun raised her head slightly, her snowy face flushed red, staring at the young man, her beautiful eyes as clear as water, and whispered, "Little sister, listen to your brother-in-law."

Since she was bullied by her brother-in-law like this, what else could she do? She had to listen to her brother-in-law.

Shui Rong smiled, stretched out his hand and scratched the girl's upturned nose. In the girl's shy gaze, he said softly: "Sister Yun, let's make a deal. Brother-in-law will treat you well in the future."

When Xiangyun heard this, a sweet feeling welled up in her heart. She snorted softly, raised her eyes to look at the young man, and said angrily, "Then my brother-in-law should not bully me anymore."

Kissing and touching, it's so embarrassing. The most important thing is that I can't do that with Baoqin. It's embarrassing just thinking about it.

Shui Rong felt amused when he heard this. Xiangyun was just young and ignorant. What he did was just a normal interest. How could it be called bullying? The little girl was too sensitive.

But Shui Rong didn't need to rush at this time. Xiang Yun was still too young, so he could just take his time. So Shui Rong said, "Sister Yun, it's getting late. Let's go back first."

Having dealt with Baoqin before, he was in no mood to do it again to Xiangyun. Now that the relationship was clear, there was still a long way to go.

Xiangyun's pink and slightly plump face blushed as she stretched out her delicate hands, simply adjusted her skirt, and said in a trembling voice: "Well, brother-in-law, let's go back."

Today's incident really made the girl feel complicated. She didn't know why. She came here to return a cloak, but she ran into her brother-in-law and Baoqin's affair. Then, she got herself involved in the affair with her brother-in-law. Alas, it was a mess. Shui Rong looked at the girl intently, stretched out his hand to pull the girl's soft hair, and said with a smile: "Sister Yun, I'll take you back first, let's go."

Xiangyun's body trembled, feeling the warmth coming from his hand, her heart was filled with shyness and joy, she hummed in a mosquito-like voice, and was pulled out by the young man.

After leaving the house, the two walked hand in hand along the corridor. Shui Rong subconsciously squeezed the girl's hand and said softly, "Sister Yun, live in the palace with peace of mind in the future. Your brother-in-law will take care of your second uncle's situation."

Since Xiangyun has become her own person, she naturally cannot be allowed to return to the Shi family. At the same time, it is also a way to give Xiangyun peace of mind.

Although Xiangyun and Daiyu are both legitimate daughters of marquisates, their situations are different. Daiyu has no elders, so Grandmother Jia naturally assumes the responsibility of guardian. If she wants to bring Daiyu into the palace openly, she needs Grandmother Jia's permission.

Of course, if Shui Rong had said it clearly, Grandmother Jia would not have given him face, but Daiyu, as her granddaughter, would not look good.

What's more, Daiyu is sentimental and narrow-minded, so she has to be taken care of completely.

On the other hand, although Xiangyun's parents are not around, she has a respectable second uncle. Shi Nai does not pay much attention to Xiangyun, but if Shui Rong says anything, it is likely that he is hoping to let Xiangyun enter the palace so as to bring the Shi family closer to the Beijing Palace.

Xiangyun was stunned when she heard this. She pursed her lips and said softly, "I will follow my brother-in-law's arrangements."

Xiangyun's feelings towards the Shi family are quite complicated. It's not that she has deep feelings for them, but it is still her home after all.

But overall, Xiangyun was still willing to stay in the palace, and was quite happy with her brother-in-law's arrangement.

Shui Rong was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "Sister Yun, should we tell mother about our situation first?"

Xiangyun's heart paused when she heard this, her snowy face turned pale, and she said hurriedly: "Brother-in-law, it's better not to tell godmother yet. I'll find a chance to tell you later."

Her godmother treated her like her own daughter. If she knew about her relationship with her sworn brother, Xiangyun would be very worried.

Besides, she didn’t know how to explain to her elder sister, the third girl, and Bao sister, which really worried her.

Shui Rong didn't care. He just talked about it. Could it be that Wan'er dared to be so presumptuous in front of him? Did she know the authority of the head of the family and rebel against her?

If you dare to say anything, you will be quiet after being whipped.

Having said that, it was just a joke. Among all the women in the courtyard, Shui Rong was the closest to Wan'er. He knew Wan'er's temper and knew that she would not care about this matter. He was even happy to see it.

Actually, Wan'er is more tolerant and generous than Yuanchun.

Of course, perhaps it is because he is in the position to govern the country. Yuanchun is his wife, so she will have a possessive desire, while Wan'er hopes to have children and grandchildren around him and to have a long line of descendants.

After a moment of silence, Shui Rong nodded and said, "Then I'll listen to Sister Yun."

Xiangyun felt relieved when she heard that. At this moment, she was completely at a loss. She was afraid that her brother-in-law would say nonsense without thinking, which would make it difficult for her to live like this.

Pursing her pink lips, Xiangyun withdrew her hand and said softly, "Brother-in-law, you don't have to send me off. I can go back by myself."

If we were seen walking hand in hand outside, we wouldn't be able to hide it.

Shui Rong looked at the girl intently, and he roughly understood her thoughts. This matter happened too abruptly, and she needed to figure it out by herself, so he did not insist and nodded, "Then sister, be careful."

Xiangyun nodded slightly when she heard this, raised her delicate head, smiled shyly on her rosy face, and said softly: "Brother-in-law, I know, you should be careful too."

In fact, her brother-in-law dotes on her very much.

Shui Rong looked at the girl's departing back, chuckled, and walked along the corridor towards his own yard.

As soon as he returned to the courtyard, he saw the charming Qingwen coming to greet him and reported, "Your Majesty, that Master Xue is here. He is waiting in the flower hall now. He has been waiting for a while."

"Uncle Xue, that's not Big Head Xue, what is he doing here?"

Although Xue Pan is Shui Rong's brother-in-law, this guy has become very honest after being taught a lesson by him several times, and will never come to find him if there is nothing wrong.

After a pause, Shui Rong said, "Then I will go and see him. Qingwen, tell someone to prepare hot water. I will take a bath later."

It wouldn't take much time to get rid of Xue Pan, so she simply asked Qingwen to prepare the bath water so that she could wash off the soft and greasy feeling on her body.

Qingwen's beautiful eyes flickered, and she responded softly. A hint of resentment appeared on her charming jade cheeks. She couldn't help but say, "My Lord, please forgive me for saying something I shouldn't have said. You should at least take care of yourself. Even if you don't feel bad, the Concubine Dowager, the Princess, and the girls all do."

As the prince's personal maid, Qingwen knew Shui Rong too well. She wanted to take a bath when she came back, most likely to wash away the grease on her body.

Apart from anything else, the cost of the prince's bath alone is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Shui Rong raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and flicked Qingwen's smooth forehead, scolding: "Just go and prepare when I told you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? I know what's going on."

It is true that Shui Rong is a bit busy, but he is young and energetic, which is normal. In addition, he takes good care of himself every day, so everything is under control. There is nothing to worry about.

Qingwen let out a soft cry and covered her forehead with her bare hands. Her peach blossom eyes under her willow-leaf brows watched the young man's departing back, and her heart couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

She clearly cared about the prince, but who would have thought that the prince didn't appreciate it, huh.

Shui Rong didn't care about Qing Wen. He went straight to the flower hall and saw Xue Datou slumped on the chair. He said, "Pan brother, why are you here?"

Xue Pan was startled when he heard the prince's voice, and immediately stood up and said angrily: "I just came to see the prince, I hope I didn't disturb the prince."

Shui Rong sat down in the main seat, lowered his eyes to look at Xue Da's head in the hall, frowned, and said: "Pan brother, if you have something to say, just say it. Why are you being so shy?"

He came to see him. Is Xue Da Nao so kind?

To be honest, if it weren't for his sister, Shui Rong would not be interested in dealing with Xue Pan.

Xue Pan's face was stunned and he groaned in his heart. He was very afraid of this gentleman, even more than his uncle. He had gone to Hengwuyuan before and wanted to ask Baochai to come, but Baochai asked him to come himself to show his sincerity. Xue Pan had no choice but to come.

Looking up at the prince, Xue Pan said angrily, "The Xue family is grateful to the prince for his kindness, so we would like to invite the prince to be our host. Please give us a favor."

"Oh"

Shui Rong glanced at Xue Pan intently, feeling a little surprised. She didn't expect Xue Pan to be so sensible.

After a pause, Shui Rong smiled and said, "Pan'er, you are also my brother-in-law, so there is no need for us to be polite. I appreciate your kindness, so I don't need you to be the host."

Although he took care of the Xue family because of Baochai, he didn't want to take the Xue family for granted. He should be grateful. Since the Xue family had a good attitude, he didn't need to put on a stern face.

Xue Pan was anxious when he heard this, and said hurriedly: "No, Prince, I have already told my mother what I want to say, please give me this favor."

Shui Rong felt amused when he saw how sincere Xue Pan was. He had thought that he had become more mature, but now he was still like an immature person.

After thinking for a while, Shui Rong said, "Wait two days."

Upon hearing this, Xue Pan's face lit up with joy and he nodded quickly in agreement. Then he ran out as if he was afraid that Shui Rong would go back on his word.

Shui Rong looked at Xue Pan's departing back, his eyes moved slightly. Although Xue Pan's temperament was unstable, he was much better than the unruly person he used to be. In this way, he was doing Baochai justice.

Well, next time I have to let Baoyatou thank me properly.

But for some reason, Shui Rong suddenly thought of Xue Pan's wife Xia Jingui. That final blow made people wonder what to say. The only thing that was clear was that the woman was really (End of this chapter)
