Chapter 198 Skin Like Snow
Chapter 198 Skin Like Snow
Dong Qiqi just said "hmm".
Liu Mingxu was her childhood sweetheart, who gave her a lot of warmth when she was at her lowest point.
At that time, she was not the top prostitute, and was oppressed and excluded in the neighborhood. She was almost hurt by pedophiles several times. He was the illegitimate son of an old prostitute in the neighborhood, and she had no idea who his biological father was. After he was born, the old prostitute's sisters each saved a bite of food to raise him.
He became good friends with her, and he always said he wanted to redeem her and make her his wife.
As a result, her potential was discovered, and she worked hard to improve herself. She was better than her sisters in dancing and music, and even won the title of Oiran.
It was she who paid for his business.
Liu Mingxu also worked hard and ran a rouge shop outside. His business was very big and he made a lot of money.
But that money is relative. Now Dong Qiqi is making a fortune for Dong Lefang, and no matter how much money Liu Mingxu earns, it will not be enough to redeem her.
Liu Mingxu looked at Dong Qiqi lying on the bed. He walked over and asked, "Are you tired today?"
Dong Qiqi said: "To be honest, it's quite tiring."
She has also been trained in how she speaks. The technicians in the workshop will ask her to speak with a slightly strained throat based on the characteristics of her voice, so her voice is also charming.
Liu Mingxu couldn't help but sit beside her bed and massage her feet.
He also grew up in Liulefang, so he knows how to serve others.
After pressing for a while, Dong Qiqi felt comfortable and fell into a drowsy sleep.
Seeing that her sleeping posture was so charming, Liu Mingxu couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek.
Now she was so delicate that her whole body seemed to be covered with gold, so even if he had such an idea, he had to take it back.
However, Dong Qiqi only took a short nap and suddenly woke up again.
She pulled Liu Mingxu over, asked him to lie down with her, and put her arms around his neck.
"Qiqi, is it really possible?" Liu Mingxu asked.
Dong Qiqi buried her face in his neck: "Brother Xu, hug me."
Only in front of Liu Mingxu did she feel like a human being. In front of other men, she was just a tool to please them.
Liu Mingxu couldn't help himself, not only hugged her tightly, but also stroked her back.
The skin soaked in milk is very smooth, like a freshly peeled egg.
"Qiqi, I really want to take you far away, away from here, to a place where there are only us."
"Brother Xu, don't make such a joke. It's enough for you to love me, 嘤嘤..."
……
While Dong Qiqi was making love with Liu Mingxu upstairs, Chunniang, the manager of Liulefang, was yelling downstairs: "That brat is here again!"
Another sister, Li Niang, said, "If Qiqi likes it, just let him come. Qiqi will serve other men during the day and let that boy serve her at night, which is also a balance."
Chun Niang said, "Don't mess up my top pick."
"It won't be bad. Mingxu knows his limits."
The noise upstairs had died down.
Liu Mingxu didn't dare to ask for more. After he satisfied himself, he wiped Dong Qiqi and stroked her back, coaxing her to sleep like a baby.
When she fell asleep, he cried silently beside her.
His girl has a glamorous life outside, but she has also suffered a lot that ordinary people cannot endure.
Unfortunately, he is not capable enough to take her away, so he can only wait until she is old and no longer valuable before he can take her away.
……
After court that day, Prime Minister Sun invited Jing Qishan again.
"Minister Jing, the plum blossoms are about to bloom. I plan to hold a poetry gathering and enjoy the plum blossoms. I wonder if Minister Jing would be willing to come and enjoy the event?"
Jing Qishan declined, "Thank you very much, Prime Minister, for your kindness, but my daughter has caught a cold recently, so I have to go back to take care of her."
Prime Minister Sun said, "Don't you have a wife at home? And there are many wet nurses. If they can't even take care of a little girl, what's the point of having them?"
Jing Qishan smiled and said, "But my daughter is mine, and I have the responsibility to take care of her. Prime Minister, I'm sorry for the loss."
Prime Minister Sun looked at Jing Qishan's back and snorted coldly.
He didn't believe that there was such a man in the world who was devoted to only one wife.
……
Jing Qishan has been returning home on time after court recently. Seeing him like this, Li Yujiao calmed down.
Li Yujiao felt that maybe she was just worrying too much.
Jing Qishan in this life is different from the previous life. She is the only one in his heart.
The couple is as loving as ever and takes care of little Huaning together.
Besides, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Li Yujiao has a lot of things to do.
The rent for the fields and shops needs to be collected, the servants in the mansion need to be given winter clothes and New Year's rewards, there is also New Year's decorations to be made, New Year's goods to be purchased, etc.
After the New Year, little Huaning was two years old in age. Children grow fast, so he needed to buy new clothes.
There are also various gifts and return gifts.
This is also a big question, and the gift must be given according to the other person's identity.
Because it was the new year, Jing Qishan received various invitations, but he declined them all.
He also relied on the support of the old emperor. The old emperor did not like his ministers to form cliques, so it didn't matter if he didn't go.
The generals at the border would come back every year to report on their work, and Jiang Li was no exception. He also came back with his wife and children.
Li Yujiao has been in Beijing for a long time and is familiar with the city. She took the initiative to take Jiang Li's wife and child Shilan out to play.
Jing Qishan drank with Jiang Li, sometimes they went to a restaurant to have a drink, and sometimes they would visit their colleagues' homes.
The days seemed to have returned to the southwest, peaceful and warm.
But after the New Year, Jiang Li and his friends will return to the southwest.
Shilan held Li Yujiao's hand, reluctant to leave.
Jiang Li's son and Xiao Huaning hugged each other and were reluctant to part. The two little guys were the same age and played very well together. They both cried when they knew the other was leaving.
Li Yujiao had no choice but to coax Xiao Huaning: "You have to eat and sleep well, so that little brother will come back to see you."
He tricked her into going out to buy candied haws, and only then did Xiao Huaning let go.
After Jiang Li and the others left, Li Yujiao fulfilled her promise and really took Xiao Huaning to buy candied haws.
As soon as Xiao Huaning saw the candied haws, he forgot everything.
Li Yujiao asked tentatively: "Ning'er, do you still remember little brother?"
Xiao Huaning asked: "Who is the little brother?"
Li Yujiao: “…”
This kid is so heartless.
……
Two months later, the eldest prince returned from the northwest. He completed his mission brilliantly and strangled the rebels in the cradle.
The old emperor was very happy and promoted his prince to a higher rank.
For this reason, all the ministers realized that the current situation had changed, and the eldest prince, who was originally the least eye-catching, had also joined the party struggle.
The ministers who had originally said they wanted to establish the eldest prince as the heir became even more determined to choose the eldest prince.
Some fence-sitters also tend to favor the eldest prince.
The Queen and the Prime Minister were extremely anxious.
If the eldest prince can make more achievements, he will most likely be made the crown prince!
But, things took a turn for the better.
This summer, the old emperor was greedy for cold things. While eating iced plums, he accidentally spilled a plum on the ground. The eunuch on duty did not notice it, so when he stood up, he stepped on the plum and fell.
This fall almost cost him his life.
When his consciousness became blurred, he ordered Huang Xiangfu: "Go, ask Madam Jing to treat me!"
