Chapter 40 - Men's Jokes
Jade Flower Garden, the main house.
"Madame, Second Elder is here."
Just as zither finished his report, Bai Tingan entered the room.
"All of you, get out." Bai Tingan sat in front of the table with a dark expression.
The maidservants looked at each other in dismay, but they did not dare to be negligent as they bowed and left.
Seeing Bai Tingan's pale face, single mama frowned. The second master was indeed angry, he did not know what the Auntie Hua was spouting about.
The single mama looked at Second Madame worriedly, only to see her waving at him, and then he respectfully left.
"What happened?" The two Madame s acted as if they didn't know anything, they walked to Bai Tingan's side and poured a cup of tea for him.
"Hmph." Bai Tingan snorted, he raised his hand abruptly and the teacup flew out.
"AHH!" The scalding tea flowed into the hands of the second Madame, who cried out in alarm.
The Auntie Hua who was hiding in the east room and listening to the commotion heard the Second Madame, her eyes filled with excitement as she waved the handkerchief alluringly, "Baoqi, Zhen Liu, quickly go and soak in some good hair tip. Second Elder needs to drink when he arrives later."
"Yes." The two maidservants smiled and agreed, in their hearts, they admired Auntie Hua very much.
Inside the main house, Bai Tingan looked at the back of the two Madame s' hands which had turned completely red, and guilt flashed past his eyes.
The hands of the two Madame s burned hot, but their hearts were ice-cold.
"Second Master, if you have any complaints in your heart, just say them out. If you don't write down the letter, you can just write it down. Why do you have to degrade me like this?" The second Madame had a cold expression on her face as she used a handkerchief to wipe the water on her body.
Hearing that, Bai Tingan panicked: Why are you saying all this, when did I say I want to write a divorce letter?
"Does that even need to be said? "If you can pour hot tea on me for something that can't even be served, why don't you give me a piece of paper to finish it?" The second Madame stared at him aggrievedly as tears flashed faintly in his eyes.
Looking at the wronged expression in the eyes of the two Madame s, Bai Tingan was speechless for a while, "I … "I didn't do it for them. She said you threw hot water on Meng`er's face …"
"She said?" The Second Madame glared at him again, "If she says so, you will believe her. A husband and wife's twenty years of marriage isn't as trustworthy as a play. You should hurry up and write the rest letter so that I can give the play a place."
As the Second Madame said this, she actually shed tears.
Looking at the Second Madame's pear-stained face, Bai Tingan's heart ached, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I say that I don't believe you? "
"You believe that? If you believe me, I wouldn't go in and pour hot tea on me without asking questions. "
The more the second Madame spoke, the more wronged she got, and the more tears flowed from her eyes. The couple had been husband and wife for 20 years, and they hadn't even blushed yet. Yet they actually dared to make a move on her for the sake of two things that couldn't even get on the stage. How could she not feel wronged?
Bai Tingan's heart felt a wave of guilt, as he stuttered, "I … I was also flustered at the moment, let me see. "
As Bai Tingan said this, he reached out to grab the Second Madame's hand, but was shaken off by the Second Madame, "I'm not as good as your two daughters, Jin Gui.
Bai Tingan became even more embarrassed as he heard this. He got up and went to the inner room and took out a box of ointment from the medicine box, pulling the Second Madame's hand to wipe the ointment for her.
The two Madame s were unwilling to let her go and struggled again.
"Don't move, they're all bubbling." Bai Tingan held the Second Madame's blistered hand in pain and gently smeared the medicine on hers.
The Second Madame ignored Bai Tingan's heartache and angrily waved his hands: "What's wrong with this? Hit me once and give me a jujube. In your heart, I'm just such a despicable person."
Bai Tingan's face alternated between green and white, and he immediately lowered his eyes, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Hearing Bai Tingan's apology, the tears that the Second Madame had stopped immediately rolled down from his eyes. "Am I that malicious mother who doesn't understand reason? Those two daughters of yours, what's wrong with them, what's wrong with them, what's less theirs, they should eat and wear as much as my Yue'er. Also, those two, the reason why they acted like this was because I gave them some face when I said those two words."
"No more, no more, there's no need to explain anything. I believe you have your own reasons." I won't ask about the matters in the backyard anymore. " Bai Tingan coaxed lightly as he reached out and pulled the two Madame s into his embrace.
"But no, don't let those two whine and humiliate me again, I can't take it." The two Madame s were not willing to do so, and immediately reached out to push Bai Tingan.
Bai Tingan refused to let go despite his thick skin, "Your husband was wrong, this time Madame will forgive you."
The soft, fawning voices, along with the choked and wronged voices, rose and fell one after another, forming a warm melody.
On the east side, Auntie Hua waited until the tea was cold but Bai Tingan did not come.
Two hours later, zither entered the east room. "Madame asked this servant to tell Auntie Hua that Second Master is staying in the main room tonight and won't be coming over."
As soon as zither finished speaking, he looked like he was covered in feces, and his expression was extremely ugly.
When zither walked to the door, she heard the sound of things falling "bang bang bang" from inside.
"One, two useless things. What are you standing there for? Hurry up and pour me some tea."
Hearing the movements in the room, the zither's lips curled up into a disdainful sneer.
Hmph, this is just something a man would do for fun. Do you really think you are something amazing?
"Lord Third?" Hearing movement, Third Wife immediately got up.
"Why are you so late?" Third Wife asked as she helped Bai Tingrui undress.
"I went for a drink with a few of my comrades." Bai Tingrui squinted and moved in front of Third Wife, "Why are you thinking of me?"
Third Wife blushed and glared at Bai Tingrui, "I'm not ashamed, who would have thought of you."
Putting Bai Tingrui's robe on the screen, Third Wife said, "Oh right, I was just about to tell you, West Prefecture's beaver is cured."
Bai Tingrui paused for a while, and then raised his eyebrows in astonishment, "You said that the fool isn't stupid?"
"Isn't it? You don't even know how powerful that girl is. As soon as you woke up, she killed a servant from Zhao Family. Not only did she take the heart of the mansion's servant, she even waived the title of Madame in old lady. Third Wife said excitedly. She was very happy to see the Zhao Family being exempted, she had long disliked the Zhao Family.
Seeing Bai Tingrui in a daze, Third Wife frowned, "What's wrong? That girl is fine, he doesn't have any losses for us. The left side will just be the gold and silver jewelry given by the Zhao Family.
"Nothing?" Bai Tingrui regained his senses, the corner of his mouth hooked up into an evil smile, and directly carried Third Wife horizontally.
"Master San, oh …"
The red tent drooped and the red waves rolled.
Soon, the sounds of panting and moaning interweaved into a beautiful melody.
