Chapter 555
Qin Qingdong was choked, and raised his hands in surrender after a long while. "Forget it, forget it, how can I argue with you? Pei Shibo's story happened in my old age. I am a junior, so I can't talk nonsense."
Song Guanzhou tilted his head, looking very serious.
"The world is like this. Men who don't like their wives can take in a few beautiful maids and concubines. But women can't do that. I just don't allow Pei An to take a concubine. People in the capital have been complaining about me behind my back."
Honeysuckle and the maidservant set out three or five simple dishes and asked, "Madam, what kind of wine would you like to have today?"
"Do you have any more Xu Yu wine?"
Xiao Cang had sent it earlier and had kept it in the study. Ren Dong went to get it, "Madam, there are only two jars left."
Song Guanzhou frowned as he looked at the sky-blue wine jar that was slightly bigger than his palm. "This is not enough. Bring me something else."
"That's enough! It's broad daylight, eat less."
Qin Qingdong stood up to stop him, but Song Guanzhou snorted, "Qin Er, don't spoil the fun." Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly became interested and said, "Why don't we -"
Having said this, she immediately fell silent.
When the maids were far away, she covered her face with a palm-leaf fan and whispered, "Let's go to the outskirts of Beijing. My third brother treated me and Linshan to a restaurant outside Beijing before. The wild vegetables there were so delicious that we can't describe it. Let's go. I'll treat you today."
Qin Qingdong looked helpless.
"At least tonight, wait for Ji Zhang? It's worth going together."
Song Guanzhou glanced at Qin Qingdong, "You want to avoid suspicion?" Qin Qingdong was so confused that she almost crawled on the ground, "Auntie, of course I want to avoid suspicion."
whispering sound!
Song Guanzhou rolled his eyes at him and mocked him, "You hang around in my yard every day, why don't you avoid suspicion?"
Qin Qingdong murmured, "This is something that people in the mansion don't talk about that much. If you really are going out... I have a bad reputation. If I really protect your carriage and take it out of the capital, rumors will spread everywhere in the future, which will definitely drag you down."
"Well, let's talk about it tomorrow when Shiro takes a rest."
To express his apology, Qin Qingdong immediately asked Chun Ge to buy a dozen storybooks, which was quite generous. He sent them in when the two were a little tipsy after eating.
Song Guanzhou flipped through the books one by one, feeling quite disgusted.
"These scholars in the capital city have really run out of ideas. They just keep using the same few tricks over and over again. They are not as good as those sent here by Ling Huan."
"Ok?"
Qin Qingdong raised his eyebrows, "Wen Si sent you a storybook? What kind of storybook is it? Let me see it!" Song Guanzhou refused to give it to him, "If you know someone who can write storybooks, tell him something in the future. I'm tired of reading these talented men and beautiful women. Try to find some other types."
"for example?"
Song Guanzhou chuckled, "For example, a princess keeps a lover, a marquis's wife divorces her husband and marries a prince, or a bandit leader becomes a general and marries a child bride whom he used to look down upon—"
ha?
Qin Qingdong was disgusted when he heard this. "Who would watch this? It's ridiculous."
Song Guanzhou snorted, "If I get the chance someday, I'll open a women's bookstore and write books specifically to disgust you men. For example--"
She was drunk at the moment, her face was flushed, and her chin was almost hitting the table.
"For example, what? You can't write anything shameful!"
Qin Qingdong was very serious and dignified, but he made Song Guanzhou burst into laughter. "People who are respectable have their own respectable places, and people who are not respectable have their own disgraceful ways of living."
"...Song Guanzhou, it's hard to imagine how the Grand Secretary taught you in the past!"
"Humph! Father teaches everyone, and he makes it clear that life is full of difficulties, and the world is full of surprises. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, he lets me know a little bit so that I won't capsize in the gutter."
"Following what you just said, for example, someone might have written it. Let me go look for it."
Song Guanzhou rolled his eyes around and said in a hoarse voice, "Love between men and pleasure between women, is there such a thing?"
what?
Qin Qingdong straightened up after hearing this, and after a long while he reacted, he pointed at Song Guanzhou and stammered, "You...you are not talking about Duanxiu or Magic Mirror... No, no, no, you are being too disrespectful! Guanzhou..., Guanzhou..., you..."
"...Drink!"
Fuss!
Song Guanzhou held the glass cup, drank it all in one gulp, held his chin with one hand, and said drunkenly, "Linghuan is still the best." Wen Linghuan, this young woman, is knowledgeable and experienced. She traveled through time with the modern world and has "complicated" and "dirty" thoughts, which are surprisingly similar to hers.
Qin Qingdong smacked his lips repeatedly, unable to look directly at the evildoer in front of him, "Does Silang know?"
Song Guanzhou shook his head lazily, "He is a gentleman, busy with official duties, and we two can't even be affectionate enough, why are we talking about these trivial matters!"
As expected, the woman was drunk and her words became more and more outspoken.
Qin Qingdong blushed for a rare moment and choked on his wine. "Song Guanzhou, even if you treat me as your brother, you can't say that. We are husband and wife... Forget it, Honeysuckle!"
Rendong came up to him, listened to his instructions, and used a cool towel to apply to Song Guanzhou's face. Song Guanzhou's hot face felt cool and his meridians felt comfortable.
When she was more awake, Qin Qingdong suddenly said, "Guan Zhou, if a woman knows that her husband is a homosexual, is it a blessing or a curse?"
Song Guanzhou shook his head.
"It's unfortunate."
Qin Qingdong asked again, "If the woman knew before the marriage was finalized, would she still marry?" Song Guanzhou immediately raised his eyebrows and widened his eyes, "How can she marry like this!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Guanzhou stood up abruptly. His movements were so fast but so sudden that the cups, plates and chopsticks on the table fell to the ground. "Qin Er, are you talking about yourself?"
what?
Qin Qingdong was dumbfounded, "Why me?" He asked back before he reacted, immediately stood up, pointed at Song Guanzhou and said loudly, "Of course I'm not, I don't have any weird habits of being a homosexual, I'm just saying this to you--" Before he finished speaking, a group of people stood in front of Shaohua Garden in a daze, including the Xu siblings, Xiao Bei and his wife, Pei Shuyu and Mei Qingyu from the second house, and two strange men.
This huge group of people were staring in amazement at Qin Qingdong who was standing under the flower stand.
Chun Ge squeezed in from the back and stamped his feet, "Good Erlang, aren't you ruining my reputation for no reason? I am not your toy!"
What the hell?
Qin Qingdong was so embarrassed at this moment. He gritted his teeth in anger after hearing Chun Ge's unprecedented words. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll sell you a prostitute someday!"
Song Guanzhou was sitting with her back to the courtyard gate, and there were bushes half a person's height standing in the distance. She didn't know what was going on behind her. She only heard Chun Ge's words and immediately became excited, "Qin Er, you still know Yan Cuiguan! That's--"
"Auntie, stop talking!"
Lotus Flower also reacted at this time. One called her his daughter and the other called her Young Madam. Song Guanzhou realized that there were guests. He helped Lotus Flower up and looked at the colorful flowers with hazy eyes. "Are there guests?"
Xiao Bei couldn't hold on any longer and laughed while holding onto the doorpost.
"Guanzhou, Erlang, what are you two talking about?"
