Chapter 97

* * *
It was only a matter of time before Jiang

Mengping met Zeng Aiyu. Ever since she had taken the recipe from the Qinhuai

River, she had been feeling something in her body, so she had been going to the

hospital every now and then for check-ups; Zeng Aiyu had also been causing

trouble every now and then. But by coincidence, as soon as they met, they

talked about Cheng Fengtai and the baby, without talking about it clearly in

such an unexplained and plausible way. Jiang Mengping did not see the doctor

that day, she came home in a daze, her heart pounding for Second Mistress Cheng

and at dinner she talked to Cheng Zhixin about what she had seen today.

Although Cheng Zhixin did not know the circumstances of the child, he

understood Cheng Fengtai’s character and said: “My brother-in-law would not

have brought the child to my cousin, he probably kept it outside for fun. It’s

too late to persuade him, don’t reveal anything to your cousin, just pretend

you didn’t see anything today.”

Jiang Mengping was dumbfounded and said: “A joke? Is keeping a mistress on the side a joke? I didn’t expect you to say that.” Cheng Zhixin realised it was too late to say anything wrong, Jiang Mengping smiled bitterly and said: “Is it possible that if you hide something for him today, he will hide it for you tomorrow?” Cheng Zhixin quickly put down her chopsticks and wiped her tears, soothing her. Jiang Mengping had been suffering for days over someone else’s affairs, Fan Jinling had no place to vent her anger, when they met and complained to each other, they were both shocked but Jiang Mengping’s news was even more shocking. Fan Jinling stood up, grabbed Jiang Mengping’s hand and left, exclaiming: “Cousin’s wife! You are too stupid! How could you not tell my sister about such a big deal! That’s like helping someone from outside! When my sister finds out one day, we’ll be accomplices!”

Jiang Mengping actually listened to Cheng Zhixin, with a sense of sympathetic justice but also felt it was wrong to interfere in other people’s family affairs. Fan Jinling is nervous, she is nervous, her heart is pounding all the way. They were holding hands, their palms were sweaty, slippery and cold, as if they had done something wrong but what was wrong that they did? They couldn’t let their sisters be deceived and bullied! The moment Fan Jinling stepped through the door of the Cheng family, she was so angry and upset, a feeling of anger came to her throat, she couldn’t stop herself from crying first. Jiang Mengping, who was already a sentimentalist and had to sigh at nothing, could not help but cry with her when she saw her little sister crying and felt for the Second Mistress and for their suffering as women. Second Mistress was startled when the two sisters-in-law approached the house in tears, Second Mistress could never have imagined that they were crying for themselves, first she thought that it was Du Jiu or Cheng Zhixin who had made a mistake but whenever a woman cries, it is always the same. women shed tears, nine times out of ten it’s for a man. By the time she heard them explain what was going on, Second Mistress couldn’t stop crying, she froze for a long time, then she went limp and fell backwards and fainted. Fan Jinling and Jiang Mengping were shouting, fanning and pinching, they woke her up, then the Fourth Aunt and Chacha-er and the two young masters heard the commotion and came, they were standing around the bed, Second Young Master was shaking her mother, crying in fear. They cried out in fear. Second Mistress opened her eyes and looked round at the family and said breathlessly: “Children out, Chacha-er out too.”

As

soon as the children were out of the room, Second Mistress was heard to burst

into tears from inside the room: “He’s not giving me a chance to live!”

Chacha-er stopped in his tracks and so did the two young men. The children listened with bated breath, they could not make out what was going on but they knew that their father had upset their mother. Second Young Master whispered to his brother: “What do you mean by a bastard outside?” First Young Master also looked puzzled but knew in his heart that it was not a good thing to say, so he explained to his brother. Chacha-er hesitated, went into the living room and flipped through the phone book, dialing several numbers for her brother, looking around in case any of the wives or maids heard and reported to her sister-in-law. Once the call was answered, she quickly said: “Brother, come back quickly, your wife knows about you.” She didn’t wait for Cheng Fengtai to ask, she added: “She knows about your child outside.” With these words, she hung up the phone and stood frowning for a while, disgusted and disgusted by these things.

Second Mistress leaned back on a large pillow, her eyes burst into tears, wiping them with her handkerchief, she no longer cared to be ashamed and wailed to her sisters: “I have done him no wrong! I have brought a dowry that is famous in Shanghai! As for the children, look at them, three in a row, all with children! I treat my two youngest aunts as if they were my own! I know he’s been out with opera singers, I don’t know that, have you seen me messing with him? I know all about being a woman! But he’s keeping a second wife! But he’s keeping a second wife! He’s even having a baby! She even had a hard time hiding it from him!”

The Fourth Aunt sighed, Jiang Mengping wiped her tears with her, Fan Jinling complained, she was a new girl, she couldn’t stand marrying a young man, she shouted with sincerity and indignation but she was too young to come up with any good ideas. The sisters couldn’t come up with a solution, they decided to call on Cheng Meixin to be their advisor, after all, it was her brother’s fault at this point in time, it was the-in-laws’ responsibility to speak up.

Cheng Meixin arrived in her car in a flamboyant manner, as soon as she arrives she saw Second Mistress lying in bed with red eyes, when she saw her enter the house, she does not rise to greet her as she normally would but turned her head and bursts into tears and looked at the faces of the other women relatives who have a lot to say. Cheng Meixin immediately realised that something was wrong, he stepped forward with a cry on his lips, pulled his handkerchief from under his armpit and pressed it against Second Mistress’ teardrop, with a distressed look on his face he said: “Don’t cry, sister, you are already weak, you can’t be so sad. Tell me what has happened, I will be your guide!”

Second Mistress, with a sobbing voice, said: “Your brother has caused me much pain!”

The Fourth Mistress did not say anything else, the Fourth Mistress did all the talking for her and she told Cheng Meixin the whole story in a very hesitant manner. When Cheng Meixin heard this, his first reaction was not to blame Cheng Fengtai for being inappropriate but to glance at Jiang Mengping, secretly annoyed at her for meddling in the family’s affairs and causing trouble. Cheng Meixin smiled dismissively at Second Mistress and said: “I thought this was a big deal! What my aunt and grandmother heard may not be the truth. My sister-in-law doesn’t know, their men are always running errands for their friends out there, even their friends’ houses were taken care of for them. Unlike us, most of those women were from unclean backgrounds, they were used to seeing men, there was nothing to be ashamed of. I don’t know if it was one of the second brother’s friend’s girls! It’s not a good idea to put it on his head! We’d better ask him when he came back! If there’s a word of explanation that’s not clear, I’ll do it for you!”

As he said this, he looked at Jiang Mengping, with a slight smile on his face and a stern look in his eyes, which made Jiang Mengping afraid to say anything for a while.

As she was talking, the little maid answered from outside, saying that the Second Master had returned. The Fourth Mistress and Jiang Mengping Fan Jinling voluntarily step aside, leaving Cheng Meixin alone as the jury. Cheng Meixin sat at the end of Second Mistress’s bed and puts his hand on Second Mistress’s hand to comfort her. The Fourth Aunt and the girls meet Cheng Fengtai and Fan Lian at the door, Fan Jinling glared at her brother in-law, Jiang Mengping is not his usual pleasant self, his face is cold and he looks away. Cheng Fengtai didn’t know he was going to be unlucky, he laughed with Fan Lian and said: “Look at the wrongs I’ve suffered. When your sister beats you later, don’t hide, let me take it out on you too.”

Fan Lian smiled bitterly.

Cheng Fengtai and Fan Lian’s original plan was to wait until the baby was born, after sending Zeng Aiyu away and then have Fan Lian take the baby to Second Mistress and confess. Otherwise, Second Mistress, who hates women, might not recognize the child as the child of the Fan family when she saw the mother’s behaviour. Now the whole plan has been thrown into disarray and Fan Lian has to turn himself in early, to get his sister’s understanding. They could not have imagined that Second Mistress was not as simple minded as they thought, Second Mistress saw Cheng Fengtai bringing Fan Lian to confess her mistake and immediately decided that Cheng Fengtai had been tipped off and forced Fan Lian to take the blame, for the crime. The brother in-law lies for his brother-in-law and the brother-in-law instead of advising him to be good, goes on a whoring and gambling spree with his brother-in-law. There is no truth in what came out of these two men’s mouths!

Second Mistress laughed coldly and said: “Oh? That’s your child? You don’t have a ready made wife at home, why do you have to steal a child and add to it? You think I’m a fool!”

She pulled her hand out of Cheng Meixin’s palm, grabbed a vase from the bed and threw it at Fan Lian with all her strength. Fan Lian dodged the blow but his head was still smashed.

Second Mistress pointed at Fan Lian and cried: “When I was married, I had my own brothers who did not support me and supported you to become the head of the family. And this is how you repay me? You are not raised by the same mother, you are so cruel!”

Fan Lian was so ashamed of himself that he fell to his knees and bowed to his sister, saying: “I am ashamed to say this to you, sister.” The blood on his forehead dripped halfway down his face and he didn’t dare cover the wound to wipe it, he said in a bloody voice: “But the child is really mine, I got the mother pregnant, I didn’t want to marry her or have any contact with her, I asked my brother-in-law to look after her for me. You mustn’t accuse your husband of wrongdoing! My brother-in-law is a man of discretion.”

These words coincided with Cheng Meixin’s earlier suspicions, Second Mistress almost suspected that Cheng Meixin was involved in collusion with them. Cheng Meixin also felt weak, cursing their stupidity, while taking Second Mistress’ hand and giving it a firm handshake as a sign of loyalty. Second Mistress allowed her to shake her hand and when she did, Cheng Meixin exclaimed: “Oh! My sister-in-law’s body is so hot!”

Cheng Fengtai was stunned and immediately went to call the doctor. The doctor gave her an injection to reduce her fever, after telling her to rest and not to be angry, because she had been crying for a long time and had had a bad fit. Second Mistress looked at Fan Lian and said to the doctor wanly: “Treat him, too.”

Fan Lian’s wound has clotted, he fell to his knees and avoided the doctor, the doctor had to leave. Second Mistress said to Fan Lian and also to Cheng Fengtai: “It is in vain that you are on your knees. All I know is that there is a child outside and the mother calls Second Master her man. As for what you say, I don’t believe a word of it.”

Cheng Fengtai was a very clever man on the outside but when he saw Second Mistress angry he was frightened. Ever since they got married, whenever the couple had a disagreement, Cheng Fengtai had always been quiet and soft afterwards. Even now, when Second Mistress is angry, he still acts like a teenager. Moreover, it was the first time he had seen Second Mistress lose her temper like that, smashing Fan Lian’s head open and he couldn’t say a word. Cheng Fengtai didn’t say a word, Second Mistress didn’t even look at him from the beginning to the end and after giving Fan Lian a hard time, she lay flat on her back and rolled over in the bed. Nobody moved in the room, Cheng Meixin held the corner of the blanket for Second Mistress, thinking that this was a mess, no more interruptions for her. They were men who had seen the world, how stupid could they be, they had to avoid suspicion in the courtroom, the defendant had his own uncle as a witness, what was this, even if they said there was no child at all, Jiang Mengping was mistaken, it was better than the current situation! Cheng Meixin and his brother look at each other, Cheng Meixin rolled his eyes. Cheng Fengtai gestures to Second Mistress on the bed and scowls, asking her sister to talk to her, Cheng Meixin gives her brother a silent shout, not bothering with him. The siblings go to see Fan Lian together again. The Fan family is still the same as before, the eldest and the youngest are in order, there is a difference between the first and the second, the father has passed away, the elder brother and sister beat and shouted the younger siblings. The brothers and sisters of the Cheng family are shocked to see Fan Lian living such a miserable life, they know that Fan Lian is in charge now, if we go back in time to when he was a young master, there is no telling how much they would have to suffer.

Second Mistress suddenly said: “Your sister promised to make the decision for me, what does she say now?”

Cheng Fengtai was expecting Cheng Meixin to make a scene, to muddle through in time, Second Mistress would see things clearly. Cheng Meixin is no one, not even Cheng Fengtai can match her in terms of insight, why should she let Cheng Fengtai have her way, she has something more in mind! Cheng Meixin thought deeply about it and said: “Why don’t you move out for a few days, you’ll have to stay in front of your sister, she won’t be able to take care of herself. Let’s wait until your sister-in-law’s anger has subsided.”

Second Mistress stiffened, she had never thought of separating from Cheng Fengtai, especially as this was tantamount to expelling Cheng Fengtai from the house, a house without a master husband, how could it be! Second Mistress struggled to sit up, a little confused. her face was always made up in the old fashioned way of women, the rouge was very thick, now the red rouge had been wiped off, her white face looked haggard. Cheng Fengtai had a clear conscience in this matter but it was hard to see Second Mistress’s description. Cheng Meixin patted Second Mistress on the back to reassure her, while giving Cheng Fengtai a wink. Cheng Fengtai finally said: “I’ll go to Fan Lian’s for a few days, you can rest. When your anger has subsided, I’ll talk to you about it.” He pulled Fan Lian up from the ground, Fan Lian gave him a sullen look, Cheng Fengtai gave him a look of contempt.

Second Mistress had been very reluctant to let Cheng Fengtai leave the house, all this time, she had done everything to keep Cheng Fengtai tied to the house, how could she give him up now but seeing Cheng Fengtai agree so readily, she did not He’s not forgiving and he’s flirting with Fan Lian, as if he’s getting his way. Yes, he must have been there for the taking! Second Mistress, with a sigh of anger in her heart, bent over and coughed violently, Cheng Meixin smoothed her back, she said with a cold face: “He’s gone… Leave the stamp! The money of the Cheng family is all derived from me from the Fan family, what are you doing with your human face! I’m telling you! I’m telling you! Don’t take a penny out to spend on your boyfriends and girlfriends! If you have any backbone, get that foot out of the house!”

At these words, not only did Cheng Fengtai’s face turn pale but even Cheng Meixin was embarrassed. Cheng Fengtai drew a deep breath, he had travelled several times, through mountains and hills and in the end in his wife’s eyes, this fortune was still only a derivative of the dowry. Cheng Fengtai’s strength of character, his self-reliance, all the hardships he had endured, were all denied in one fell swoop. Where can one go to cry foul? Cheng Fengtai’s face turned blue, without saying a word, he took out his cheque book and stamp box and put it on his desk. Cheng Meixin was now a bit alarmed, unless he was a real white man, no man would not find this a great insult, he said: “My sister-in-law is angry! I am angry!”

Second Mistress also realised that she had spoken out of turn but of course she would not bow her head at this point and kept her face shut. Cheng Fengtai is there to hand over the money, Fan Lian tugs at his sleeve, he shook Fan Lian off and stalks off.

Second Mistress cried out behind him.

As soon as Cheng Fengtai left Second Mistress’s

presence, he straightened his back, his voice grew louder, his speech became more

eloquent in short, his courage returned and he cracked up with Fan Lian and

said: “Say the Cheng family’s money is

all yours. the Cheng family’s money is all yours, what a joke! You have all the

books of your Fan family in your hands, look them up and count them, did I take

any money from the Fan family other than the dowry? I earned every penny of it

myself! I ran into a bandit’s den with my head tied to my trousers and made a

path out of it! Me, I did it all alone! Where are you getting the balls to

claim the money is from the Fan family? All of you are warming your eggs in the

nest!”

Fan Lian was a total sinner today, not only did he cause his sister’s anger, he also caused her and her brother-in-law to turn against each other and nodded his head like an insect: “Brother-in-law is indeed a man of the highest order, I’m just a loser who eats his ancestral property, I dare not compare with you.”

Cheng Fengtai, as he walked away, asked his maid to pack his bags, saying that he is going away and that he should bring all his clothes for all seasons and his pipe and tobacco. Lin Ma, the maid of the Second Mistress, followed closely behind him, trying to persuade him but having no place to intervene and shouting at the Second Master to stop him from leaving. Cheng Fengtai had always hated the old maids that Second Mistress brought from her mother’s house, they were so eager to protect their master that they often inadvertently stirred up conflicts between the husband and wife and they used to scold the Cheng family, almost like they were the mothers-in-law. At this moment Cheng Fengtai did not have to give her face, he sneered and said: “Lin Ma’s mother has come just in time, look carefully, I have taken away all my own clothes and daily necessities, none of the gold and silver of the Fan family has been touched.” Lin Ma was sweating coldly, she was afraid that her great aunt would leave the girls and run away, she was crying. Cheng Fengtai didn’t bother to talk to her, he turned to Chacha-er’s house and announced in a stern voice: “Pack up, come with me now, you have to go to school, don’t you, Second Brother will take you to school!”

Chacha-er at first ignored her brother’s crazy talk, until she saw that he was serious. Cheng Fengtai, who always had a smile in the corner of his eye was a different person, a different face, when he was cold. The two siblings packed up their belongings very quickly, three large suitcases tied to the back of the car, as if they were fleeing. The Fourth Aunt and Jiang Mengping were stunned when they heard the noise and came out to see them. Jiang Mengping saw that she had made a big mistake, she was in a state of shock, her hands and feet were weak, she said: “I’ve done my cousin a disservice.”

Fan Jinling was quick to see the ungrateful man out of the house and said: “Don’t be too soft on your cousin! My brother-in-law deserved what he got and you should be thanked for it!”

Jiang Mengping twisted her handkerchief, her heart was in a tumultuous state.

Cheng Meixin came out from behind on her high heels and poked Cheng Fengtai’s head with her sharp nails in her native language she said: “You’re getting worse and worse! Don’t go crazy! You didn’t say a word about leaving home after all the trouble in Shanghai and now you’ve got such a temper? Now you’ve got such a temper? You’re going to turn on me at the drop of a hat?” Cheng Fengtai tilted his head impatiently, his nails scratched a white mark on the corner of his forehead, Cheng Fengtai looked at her with a smile on his face and said: “Didn’t you ask me to go away for a few days? Even now, I haven’t quarrelled with her?” Fan Lian said with a quick glance at the car window: “Brother-in-law, come and stay with me! Let’s talk.”

Cheng Fengtai didn’t even look at him and said: “I have nothing to say to you! Clean up your own shit!”

Fan Lian took a look at Chacha-er in the car, trying to impress Cheng Fengtai with her: “You can stay anywhere, what about Third Sister, a young girl? What about a young girl who goes out with you?”

Cheng Fengtai said: “It’s not your turn to worry about that, Fan!”

He pushed the back of Lao Ge’s chair with a civilizational battle, Lao Ge drove the car away in a huff, nearly running over Fan Lian’s foot.

Cheng Fengtai was sullen and silent, Lao Ge did not dare to ask, he circled Qianmen Street several times, he heard Chacha-er say: “Brother, where are we going?”

Cheng Fengtai woke up from his own boredom and was struck by this question. His relatives were all nepotistic, his friends were all booze, he was alone. After ten years in the world, not much different from when he was a teenager, something happened, he’s still alone, no, not really, it’s very different now.

Cheng Fengtai said: “Let’s go… to the Southern Luogu alleyways.”

Lao Ge nodded in his heart, come on, better to go to his mistress, Second Mistress, you can’t be kicked out for nothing.

Cheng Fengtai arrived at the Shang House, unfortunately, Shang Xirui has Xiao Lai supervising the play at the Shuiyun House. Cheng Fengtai and Chacha-er had dinner at the restaurant and waited and waited in the car, it was almost midnight, Chacha-er was so sleepy that he fell asleep on his brother’s shoulder. Shang Xirui and Xiao Lai came from the other side of the alley in a foreign car (taxi), Cheng Fengtai was blocking the alley with such a big car, Shang Xirui didn’t see it at all, Xiao Lai didn’t even see it. Cheng Fengtai pounced on the car and squeezed the horn, two blares, before Shang Xirui blinked and looked over. But Cheng Fengtai is trying to put on a show today, sitting still in the car.

When Shang Xirui saw Cheng Fengtai’s mysterious absence, he came closer to find out what was going on. Cheng Fengtai didn’t even get out of the car, he shouted through the window: “You’re home so late! You little bastard, you know how long I’ve been waiting for you!”

Shang Xirui, tired and sleepy after a long day, yawned and said: “It’s not my fault, I didn’t know you were coming today.” With that he turned his head and walked away, ignoring Cheng Fengtai. Cheng Fengtai swallowed his anger, stumbled out of the car, opened the gate of the merchant house with a civilized battle and stood in the courtyard with his sister in a dignified manner. Lao Ge carries a large suitcase, looked at Cheng Fengtai and waited for a sign, Cheng Fengtai raised his chin towards Shang Xirui’s southern house, Lao Ge carries the suitcase inside. Shang Xirui brushed his teeth under the plum tree with a toothbrush jar, looked at Chacha-er, then at the big suitcase, senses something is wrong, his eyes dart in and out of Cheng Fengtai’s face. Cheng Fengtai smiled at Xiao Lai and said: “Please, Miss Xiao Lai, take my sister to stay in your house for the night, please!”

Chacha-er smiled obediently at Xiao Lai, who was willing to put up with any hardship in order to go to school. Although Xiao Lai did not like Cheng Fengtai, he did not have the heart to scorn a little girl and led Chacha-er into the house to sleep.

Shang Xirui spat out a mouthful of foam and said: “What is this? You’ve got a child with you.”

Cheng Fengtai sat on a small stone bench and sighed up to the sky and said in a desperate voice: “I’ve been kicked out by Second Mistress, I’m going to live with you from now on, do you want to…”

Before Cheng Fengtai could finish his sentence, Shang Xirui jumped on Cheng Fengtai’s back with a cheerful cry and laughed wildly, he didn’t even have time to put down the toothbrush jar he was carrying in one hand, the jar of mouthwash was poured all over Cheng Fengtai’s chest He poured it all over Cheng Fengtai’s chest. Shang Xirui was usually a jokester, he often said strange things, had fun and laughed but Cheng Fengtai had never seen him so happy, he couldn’t stop laughing and the neighbourhood dogs started barking.

Cheng Fengtai was almost crushed by Shang Xirui, he said with difficulty: “I’m crushed! Hey, get out of my way, you’re rubbing my face with toothpowder!”

Shang Xirui was unmoved, his chest pressed against his back, his arms tightened around his neck and he rubbed his ears together. Lao Ge came out of the room without looking at them, from Lao Ge’s point of view, Shang Xirui was kissing Cheng Fengtai in front of people outside, kissing Cheng Fengtai so passionately.

When Shang Xirui heard Lao Ge coming out, he had to gather himself up and go and rinse his mouth with water. Cheng Fengtai cleared his throat and said to Lao Ge: “You’ve had a hard day, go home, you’ll have a while off tomorrow, come back at noon.” Lao Ge replied, Cheng Fengtai added: “Keep an eye on the family and watch out for me. My side of the story, keep your mouth shut.” Lao Ge laughed and said: “Second Master, really, don’t you worry about me?” Cheng Fengtai also smiled.

Shang Xirui, tired from the day and now sleepy, sat on the edge of the bed humming a cheesy tune, while taking off his socks. Seeing Cheng Fengtai come in, patting him down and asking him to sit over, he asked: “How did you get thrown out by your wife? Did you have to fight? What was it for? Come on, tell me!”

With such a smile on his face, as if he was asking for a great joy.

Cheng Fengtai, untying his shoelaces, gave him a glance and said: “Have you no sense of decency? I’m not happy here, can’t you stop being pleased with yourself in front of me?” Shang Xirui laughed so hard that the corners of his mouth were grinning from ear to ear, his eyes were curved, shining and beaming with joy, he said honestly: “No! I can’t help it!”

Cheng Fengtai kicked him in the buttocks and said: “Go, get Second Master a hot tub of footwash, I’ll tell you when I’m comfortable.” Shang Xirui swished out of bed and brought Cheng Fengtai a foot basin and a hot water bottle. Cheng Fengtai took off his wet clothes and wrapped himself in the blanket to soak his feet, his eyelids were drooping, his face only had a tired look on it. Shang Xirui squatted on the floor and looked up at Cheng Fengtai and said: “Second Master are you comfortable now?”

Cheng Fengtai said: “Not really. Not very comfortable.”

Shang Xirui shouted: “Second Master! How can you be so rascally!”

One hand darted towards Cheng Fengtai’s crotch and grabbed Cheng Fengtai’s object, saying: “If you try to cheat again, I’ll squeeze it!”

Cheng Fengtai shuddered violently, slapping Shang Xirui away a bit and said angrily: “You’re such a big boss, why are you still a rascal!”

Then he had to tell the story slowly. Shang Xirui listened with great interest, shaking his head, overjoyed, shaking his fist and finally commented: “That one is always like that, always interfering in people’s domestic affairs. You and Second Mistress will never make-up again!”

Cheng Fengtai was shocked to hear that she was Jiang Mengping’s code name, adding a layer of worry. Shang Xirui added: “But you’re a womanizer yourself! Second Mistress has not wronged you, why are you really angry?” Cheng Fengtai felt irritated by these words, he had no qualms about confronting Second Mistress but he had no qualms about confronting Shang Xirui, he smacked Shang Xirui’s arm with a foot cloth and said sternly: “Bullshit!”

Shang Xirui was so happy today that he didn’t get upset when he was hit, he smiled and took the cloth away.

Cheng Fengtai sneered: “I haven’t eaten your money yet, it’s not your turn to call me a gigolo!”

Shang Xirui said seriously: “From now on you will eat my food, be my gigolo.”

Cheng Fengtai looked at him and said absently: “I spend a lot of money, I use all the best Western goods. I have a sister to study and a little girl to feed, you can’t afford it, here, wipe my feet.”

Shang Xirui tucked the cloth behind his back, shook his head and said: “I have plenty of money, I can feed you and your children!”

Cheng Fengtai tried to rub his wet feet on

Shang Xirui’s body, Shang Xirui crouches on the ground, holding his head and

dodging, his clothes were still wet, so he threw himself on Cheng Fengtai with

a cry, to rub the water stains back on him. These two are so bored together, they

don’t know what to do, they just fight for no reason, they are so happy. Shang Xirui,

with a half naked Cheng Fengtai underneath him was in love with him, he felt

that now Cheng Fengtai belonged to him as a whole, the foreigners say that a

couple is a relationship between the body and the ribs, now Cheng Fengtai was

his ribs This useless son will be

totally dependent on him for support, with his family in tow, waiting to be fed,

afraid to run away even with a big stick, Cheng Fengtai will have nowhere else

to go! His chest felt like it had been filled with honey, it was swollen into a

big ball, it was full to the brim and then the sugar juice spilled out of the

seven orifices of the cold hair, his mouth could taste the sweetness, his

throat wanted to laugh, there was no place in his body that was not satisfied, no

place that was not joyful, it was possible to Someone could make him as happy

as if he had won a full house. From that day on, Cheng Fengtai had a different

place in Shang Xirui’s heart, he had never loved anyone so much.

Shang Xirui’s heart was in a thousand twists and turned but because of his dumb mouth, he could not say a single word, only his body reacted directly, violently. They rolled around on the bed, Cheng Fengtai touched Shang Xirui’s fierce spot and was about to tease him, when Shang Xirui threw his arms around his neck and said: “Really, Second Master, there’s a big vault of gold sleeping underneath you, enough to last us a lifetime! for the rest of our lives! From now on, you can stay with me!”

Cheng Fengtai, who did not think much of Shang Xirui’s money was touched by the seriousness of his words. Second Mistress may have had a red dress for ten miles but it was not an honourable thing to do to support her husband’s family with the dowry, Second Mistress took it badly, Cheng Fengtai took it badly, otherwise she would not have risked her life to leave the countryside. Shang Xirui’s relationship with him was excluded from the world, his feelings for him were also excluded from the world, they both acted on the basis of their friendship, regardless of their marriages, regardless of what people said.

Cheng Fengtai kissed Shang Xirui on the cheek and said: “Good, you’ll be the Second Master’s vault from now on! Let’s see what’s in the vault!”

With that, he dug his hand into Shang Xirui’s clothes. Cheng Fengtai didn’t understand Shang Xirui’s meaning, only that vault was Shang Xirui’s proud claim to fame. Shang Xirui was so aroused that he didn’t give him an explanation, he stripped naked and went off to make love with him.

This night Shang Xirui was so happy and so energetic and enthusiastic, that he did not even bother to turn out the light and Cheng Fengtai spent the night in the brightly lit bedroom. Often when Cheng Fengtai had finished and was about to go to sleep, he was awakened by his good teeth and the night was so loud that the neighbourhood dogs barked after him until dawn. Cheng Fengtai had his hand free to pound Shang Xirui’s mouth in the interval of his passion, thinking that Chacha-er must have heard him and begged: “Ancestor! Don’t shout! My sister is here!”

Shang Xirui was a shameless man, now that Cheng Fengtai lived next door, there was no stopping him from having a good time. He took two of Cheng Fengtai’s fingers in his mouth, rolled them on his tongue and bit them and then sucked them hard, Cheng Fengtai was out of his mind, he didn’t care about anything else.
