Farmhouse with a little field

Chapter 328 Go Buy Me a Pot of Wine

Several people in the dining room were confronting each other, and Liu Shi who returned to the room was not idle. She really felt that she was much better than that rustic woman, but after careful consideration, she suddenly realized that if she was really the same as that Compared with women, she doesn't seem to have much chance of winning.

There was only one reason, and that was that she didn't have any proof of their marriage, that is, a marriage certificate.

Although Liu Shi has lived in the town since she was a child, she is actually a small family, barely getting by. She was even sold by her family to be a servant when she was young.

And the reason why she and Zhuang Cheng got together at the beginning was because her father sacrificed her life to hold Zhuang Cheng back.

Once a woman voluntarily dedicates herself, it means that she has no value and can only be in a passive state. Although life at home is indeed much easier because of this, but that's all, and Liu can only accompany Zhuang Cheng in such a nameless way. around.

It's not that she hasn't mentioned the marriage letter, but the result is obvious, even if Liu Shi is not reconciled, there is no other way.

"Ma'am, are you worried... about the marriage certificate?" Xiaoping poured a cup of hot tea for Mrs. Liu, and asked cautiously.

Mrs. Liu gave Xiaoping a surprised look, and her eyes gradually turned sharp.

Xiaoping was so guilty that she avoided Liu Shi's gaze, and said falteringly: "Madam, this servant is also worried about you, that's why I dared to ask this question, in fact... this servant just happened to know an official who worked in the yamen. , maybe he can help."

Mrs. Liu looked Xiaoping up and down for a long time, and after a while, she asked slowly, "Why didn't I know you knew such a person?"

"My servant dare not lie to Madam, this servant also met him because I helped the official once unintentionally, but I had no contact with him afterwards," Xiaoping was already sweating coldly on her forehead, but she On the face, he still pretended to be calm and explained, "If it wasn't because Madam encountered such a thing this time, the servant would not think of him, and... and the servant is not sure if he will be willing to help, after all, the servant was just I did him a little favor, so..."

Seeing Xiaoping's nervous appearance, Liu's eyes rolled, and she suddenly smiled slightly: "Look, I scared you, I just asked a casual question, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm not afraid, I just feel that I may be too self-indulgent in doing this, and I'm worried that Madam will be unhappy because of it." Seeing this, Xiaoping heaved a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "But the servant is also whole-hearted. For Madam, I hope Madam will not be angry."

"Of course I won't be angry because of this, it's just that the official you mentioned can really help me?" Liu Shi asked with a smile.

Thinking of what that person said, Xiaoping nodded without hesitation: "That person should be fine. If Madam needs it, I can go to him."

"It's hard work for you." Liu Shi nodded in relief, but there was a little more suspicion in her eyes.

Then Xiaoping left the dealer and went to find the legendary "official messenger", and the result was naturally very gratifying: "Madam, the elder brother of the official messenger said that he can help with this matter secretly. The marriage certificate, but this marriage certificate must have the fingerprints of the husband and wife, so..."

"He really said that?" Liu Shi was still a little suspicious, how could Xiaoping know such a person by such a coincidence?And why does that person have such ability, "Is he very good? How can he do such a thing?"

Xiaoping naturally saw Liu's thoughts, and said according to the words she had thought up before: "Madam doesn't know, in fact, people in the yamen are like this. They take some small money to help people with such small things. After all, if you want to It also takes a lot of work to register the marriage certificate in the yamen."

Ordinary people also have marriage certificates when they get married, but this marriage certificate is basically only certified locally, and it is a symbol of two people getting married. Admit it, but there is only a marriage certificate that is really protected by law.

Xiaoping was afraid that Mrs. Liu would not believe her, so she added embarrassingly: "Although the servant once helped that man a little, but he also asked him to drink a cup of tea, so he reluctantly agreed. Here we go..."

"Why is it wrong? It's just that this matter is too embarrassing for you," Liu Shi saw Xiaoping's hesitation, and waved to her with a busy smile. When Xiaoping came to the front, Liu Shi said passionately, "Xiaoping, although you are nominally the servant I bought back, I have never treated you as a servant. After all, you are the only one in this family who has been with me all the time, and you are the only one who thinks of me... "

Xiaoping curled her lips when she heard this, but her face showed a moved expression: "Madam, don't say that, this is what a servant should do."

The two said a few provocative words for their own purposes, and then brought the topic back: "Xiao Ping, what did the official tell me to do?"

Xiaoping seemed to have remembered something, and took out a post in black and white from her bosom, and handed it to Mrs. Liu: "Ma'am, this is for the slaves, Ma'am only needs to leave her fingerprints on it, and then think about it." Let the master also..."

I haven't finished the last words, but the meaning is very clear. Looking at the white post in her hand, Liu's eyes gradually deepened. As long as Zhuang Cheng can also press his fingerprints on it and send it back to the Yamen, then the marriage certificate will be valid. up.

"Xiao Ping, this matter is thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do, so you will definitely keep this matter a secret for me, right?" Ping.

Xiaoping immediately expressed her loyalty: "Madam, don't worry, this servant is dedicated to Madam, and will never tell anyone about this."

"I believe in you. You go out and buy me a jug of wine. I'll be useful today," Liu Shi nodded, paused, and added, "It's best to use spirits."

Then she glanced at Xiaoping with a look of "you understand", Xiaoping nodded knowingly.

That night, Mrs. Liu summoned Zhuang Cheng, who was full of anger, with her tears and cries, and then began to admit his mistake with a glass of wine: "Master, it's all the fault of my concubine today. Appearing in front of the father-in-law is all the fault of the concubine, please don't be angry with the master."

Zhuang Cheng snorted, but said nothing.

"Master, I really didn't intend to do this. My original intention was to serve my father-in-law well and share my worries for the master, but I didn't expect that it would be self-defeating in the end. Instead, it made the master embarrassed. The concubine is really... ashamed of the master's pampering." Ah..." As she said that, Liu Shi started to cry again, looking very pitiful in the dim candlelight.

Before that, Zhuang Cheng was very satisfied with Mrs. Liu. After all, this person was good-looking, good-looking, and he always obeyed his words, so after hearing this, Zhuang Cheng also believed most of it. He felt that Mrs. Liu hadn't The guts to do it on purpose.

Seeing that Zhuang Cheng's expression softened, Mrs. Liu hurriedly said with tears: "Master, you have always known my love for you. What I want is to be with the master all the time, nothing else. , so how can the concubine care about these things..."

Saying that, Liu's body was already half leaning on Zhuang Cheng's body.

With the warm fragrance and soft jade in his arms, how could Zhuang Cheng not be moved, but his voice was still cold: "Hmph, let's not be an example!"

"Isn't the master not angry about being a concubine?" Liu looked at Zhuang Cheng with twinkling eyes, with endless dependence and respect in his eyes.

This kind of gaze greatly satisfied Zhuang Cheng's vanity, especially after being reprimanded by Mr. Zhuang before, he subconsciously reached out to wrap his arms around Liu's shoulder: "Naturally."

"This concubine is at ease, just to make amends, I still hope that the master can drink this glass of wine, so that I have accepted my apology." Liu's hand was handed to Zhuang Cheng's mouth .

Zhuang Cheng paused, then drank the wine directly in Liu's hand, Liu's eyes flashed, he reached out to pick up the jug and poured another glass: "Master is really good at drinking, you have to drink three glasses of this wine , otherwise, how can I show how much I feel sorry for my concubine?"

With one cup, there will be three cups, and with three cups, there will be five cups, ten cups, twenty cups...

Looking at Zhuang Cheng, who was already so drunk lying on the table, Liu Shi tentatively shook his arm and called softly: "Master? Master..."

There was no response, Liu bit her lip, and quickly took out the post from her jewelry box, and then took out a small box of red mud, first took Zhuang Cheng's thumb and pressed it in the red mud, and then pressed it into the red mud. Thumbs down on the post.

Seeing the bright red handprint on the post, Liu's eyes suddenly showed a little sadness, and before she could put away her emotions, she heard the door suddenly ringing.

Surprised, Liu quickly folded and put away the fingerprinted post, then calmed down and said to the outside: "Who is it?"

"It's me, I don't know if my husband is here?" Little Qi Niang's voice came from outside the house.

Little Qi Niang was driven here by Mr. Zhuang and Xiao Qi together, in order to drag Zhuang Cheng into his room.

If the Zhuang family didn't know about Liu's existence before, they wouldn't care too much about where Zhuang Cheng slept at night, but now that they know, they can't allow Zhuang Cheng to stay with Liu's.

Hearing this voice, Liu couldn't help curling her lips. If it was any other time, she would definitely not let Zhuang Cheng go out, but today's words: "So it's my sister, please come in quickly, the master just joined me. Drinking, because I was too happy, I got drunk in the end, and I was worried about how to send the master to my sister."

Mrs. Liu went to open the door in person, welcomed little Qi Niang in with a smile, and then pointed to Zhuang Cheng who was lying on the table.
