Chapter 214 Qin Keqing's Request and Letter of Submission
Chapter 214 Qin Keqing's Request and Letter of Submission
A good wedding turned out like this.
Naturally, no one was in the mood to drink and celebrate, and everyone went back to rest.
Before going to bed, Cao Rui also harassed Zi Gongzi and asked her whether the blind date she introduced was a great beauty and what her identity was.
"roll!"
Master Zi was already angry and unhappy, and when he saw Cao Rui was so greedy, he simply turned him away.
Cao Rui knocked on the door and explained:
"Master Zi, don't blame me for being unfaithful. It's just that you are too dazzling. If you were a girl, I would climb mountains of swords and go through seas of fire to get you!"
"Unfortunately, you are a man. I can only settle for the next best thing and find a substitute among your sisters!"
"..."
Young Master Zi pretended to be dead and did not respond, burying his head in the quilt.
……
The next morning.
After finishing his breakfast, Cao Rui prepared to block Ms. Zi and force her to take him on a blind date no matter what.
Unexpectedly, the housekeeper came in to report that Jia Rong from Ningguo Mansion had been waiting at the door for a meeting.
"Invite him in."
Cao Rui was a little surprised. Apart from Wang Xifeng, he didn't know anyone else in the Jia family. Why did Jia Rong suddenly come to him?
Not long after, Jia Rong was brought in and said respectfully:
"Master Cao, yesterday the women in my family were making a fuss and accidentally bumped into you while hiding behind the screen, so I specially prepared a banquet. Please be sure to attend the banquet."
This matter concerns a woman's reputation. There is no time to cover it up, let alone bring it up.
Even if I really want to apologize, I won't use this excuse.
Weird!
Cao Rui wanted to refuse, but then he thought that maybe he could get close to Wang Xifeng, touch her body and copy her talent, so he said:
"In that case, I will give you this favor. However, are there any other guests at the banquet?"
Jia Rong said happily: "Master Cao, we are all elders in the family. After hearing about this, we also feel sorry and want to apologize to you in person."
It is better to choose a day than to hit it.
Cao Rui got on the Jia family's carriage and headed directly to Ningguo Mansion.
The banquet was held in the most exquisite back garden of the mansion, with stone tables and stone benches, decorated with colorful flowers, making it even more elegant.
There was a dazzling array of dishes on the table, all of which were delicious and colorful, and all were carefully prepared by the Jia family to show respect for their distinguished guests.
However, Jia Rong's true sincerity is two beautiful ladies of extraordinary beauty.
The first person Cao Rui saw was Jia Rong's stepmother, Youshi, who was wearing a luxurious long dress embroidered with peony flowers. The hem of her skirt swayed gently, like the most beautiful flower in spring.
But there was an unconcealable melancholy and hesitation between her brows, which made her look very touching.
But when Jia Rong's wife Qin Keqing stepped into the back garden, all eyes were involuntarily attracted to her.
Cao Rui is no exception.
Her face was like a newly blossomed lily, her skin was white as snow, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and she was wearing a moon-white dress embroidered with silver butterflies. The hem of her skirt swayed gently, like the rippling surface of a lake under the moonlight, dignified yet lively.
Even a beauty like Youshi seemed a little overshadowed by her brilliance.
More importantly, Qin Keqing looked about 70% similar to Fairy Jinghuan, just like sisters. Cao Rui felt happy just by looking at them and couldn't stop smiling.
Jia Rong saw it and got angry. He looked at Qin Keqing, who was like a goddess and fairy, and was married home in a formal ceremony, making countless people envious.
As a result, on the wedding night, she was monopolized by that old guy and couldn't even touch her.
Originally thought that the old man would just have to wait until he died of old age, but unexpectedly, Qin Keqing was actually a cultivator. She used some kind of magic that caused the old man to fall from the building, leaving him with only one breath left.
Jia Rong shuddered and immediately understood. He actively introduced the two sides, acted as a matchmaker for Cao Rui, and even dismissed the maids, asking Youshi and Qin Keqing to personally pour wine and serve food to Cao Rui.
This kind of treatment cannot be achieved even by families with close ties through intermarriage for generations.
As the saying goes, when something is out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong. We must be on guard!
After everyone was seated, Jia Rong began to toast and say all kinds of nice things.
Cao Rui followed suit and chatted, sometimes raising his glass to drink together, sometimes laughing heartily, as if they were old friends and were having a great time talking to each other.
Yushi and Qin Keqing listened attentively on the side, occasionally interrupting, and their words were gentle and virtuous.
Wait until three rounds of wine have been served and five flavors of dishes have been served.
When Qin Keqing saw that Cao Rui was a little drunk, she suddenly stood up, holding a glass of wine, and said softly:
"Master Cao, to be honest with you, the person who was hiding behind the screen and peeking at me was actually me. I was really rude."
"Here, I offer you a toast to make amends."
After saying that, he drank the wine in the glass.
The wine rippled slightly in her mouth, as if creating a different kind of ripple.
As the alcohol spread, her face gradually became flushed like rouge.
The blush bloomed on her snow-white skin like the most beautiful flower in spring.
Qin Keqing didn't seem to drink often. She frowned slightly due to the stimulation of alcohol and exhaled slightly, and there seemed to be a faint aroma of alcohol in the breath.
Cao Rui was sitting next to her, and on the other side was Youshi. Suddenly, she seemed to be surrounded by the fragrance of her daughter and the aroma of wine.
"Mrs. Qin, don't worry about it. It's just a small matter. I know you are here to see Brother Meilong and to check on your daughter."
The name was wrong, but no one present corrected him.
Qin Keqing gently put down the wine glass, stared at Cao Rui with her beautiful eyes, and said solemnly:
"Master Cao, I have been learning the art of face reading from a master since I was young. Although I cannot say that I am proficient in it, I can see some clues."
"Looking at your appearance, you are extremely noble and will become a great man in the future!"
After hearing this, Jia Rong's gaze towards Cao Rui suddenly became extremely hot, as if he was looking at a mountain of gold.
Yushi's eyes were also full of surprise, yet she couldn't help being suspicious. Her master had just fallen from the building, so could it be that his wife couldn't stand the loneliness?
Cao Rui couldn't figure out her intention, and said vaguely:
"Mrs. Qin, you are too kind. I only know some techniques, so I don't deserve such high praise."
Qin Keqing smiled slightly, as if a hundred flowers were in full bloom, so wonderful that she invited Cao Rui to come inside to talk.
"This……"
You was both shocked and doubtful, and was still hesitating about the strict rules between men and women.
Then Jia Rong suggested, "Keqing, take Master Cao inside first. We'll clean up and move inside to continue drinking."
This level of shamelessness is comparable to Xue Fan's.
Youshi was not surprised. Since Jia Rong was willing to let his beautiful wife be alone with a man outside his home, what could she, a widow who was about to lose her husband, say?
I just hope that damned Jia Zhen can stay alive a little longer so that he can have more bargaining chips.
Everyone has different thoughts.
Cao Rui followed Qin Keqing and slowly walked into the nearest room. A faint fragrance wafted to his face.
As the door was closed, the atmosphere instantly became ambiguous.
A single man and a single woman in the same room has always been a matter of speculation!
After the two of them stood still, Qin Keqing turned her face slightly, her silky hair gently falling, revealing her graceful neck, and said directly:
"Master Cao, the Qing Dynasty is about to fall, and you are the gravedigger, the future emperor!"
"I know some magic tricks that can help you avoid being plotted against by the Qing court practitioners."
Good guy!
Another strong woman who always talks about rebellion!
Cao Rui hurriedly said:
"Ma'am, you are drunk and talking nonsense. Fortunately, I have a strange disease that makes me deaf when I drink, so I can't hear what you say."
"I'm not drunk!"
Qin Keqing raised her chin slightly and stared at Cao Rui with burning eyes:
"In exchange, Master Cao must change the tragic fate of all the women in the Jia family."
Cao Rui was silent for a moment, thinking that he had met an understanding person, so there was no need to hide anything, so he said:
"Okay! I just like helping others, and I can help reverse the tragic fate of the women in the Jia family."
"But we just met today, and I really don't trust Madam Qin. Please give us a token of your loyalty."
