Madam, don't do this!

Chapter 9 (4,000 please recommend and collect)
"Sir, it's time to undress."

Hearing these crisp words, Song Yan's heart also felt a ripple.

Song Yan had not seen many women. The fairy in white in the cave was one, Luo Tianyi was one, and the rest were mostly maids in the Duke's Mansion.

Among the women Song Yan met, the fairy in white was the most mysterious one, and Luo Tianyi was the most beautiful one. As for Gu Banxia, ​​in terms of appearance, she was probably second only to Luo Tianyi, and was not inferior to Yang when she was young.

As for her figure, it's probably even sexier than Luo Tianyi's.

Those who knew her thought that she was a maid sent by the Luo family. Those who didn't know her might have thought that she was a young lady from some wealthy family.

Song Yan roughly knew what was going to happen next.

He still doesn't know what his first woman looks like.

The second woman, I just met today.

Song Yan did not let Gu Banxia leave. If he did nothing, it would probably arouse Luo Yuheng's suspicion.

At a critical moment, he would not make unnecessary trouble. Moreover, Song Yan knew very well what was most important to him right now: strength. Only a strong enough strength could allow him to live safely in this world, and practicing the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror was his only way to gain strength.

Therefore, he would not be like other time travelers, pretending to be magnanimous and saying things like we just met and we have no feelings for each other yet, you were forced by the Luo family, I will not hurt you at this time, etc... as if each of them is a gentleman, comparable to Liuxia Hui.

Countless times of fear of death have made Song Yan what he is today.

He is not a gentleman and does not have such high moral standards.

He will desperately grasp any opportunity to keep himself alive.

As for Gu Banxia's own opinion, probably no one cares about it. This is also the sadness of women in this era.

Bata, bah...

The footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet bedroom. Even though Gu Banxia was already prepared, her body subconsciously tensed up.

"Are you afraid?"

Pursing her pink lips, Gu Banxia nodded: "A little."

Song Yan had no experience in this kind of situation, so he thought for a moment and said, "I'll try to be gentle."

puff.

Hearing a grown boy say such words, Gu Banxia couldn't help but laugh out loud. Her nervousness dissipated a lot invisibly. Gu Banxia finally stood up. Her height was almost the same as Song Yan.

"I am nine years older than you, uncle. Wouldn't you think I'm too old?"

Song Yan shook his head: "No, bigger is better, it will hurt more."

"Grumpy."

The joke actually brought the two closer together. Song Yan could clearly see Gu Banxia's long eyelashes trembling slightly. In a trance, it seemed as if there was an invisible force drawing the two closer.

The way is:
The light flickers in front of the window, and the beauty beside the bed trembles;
The red lips hum softly, and the peach-colored glow dyes the snow-white face.

Good poem, so wet!
……

The study room of the Duke's Mansion.

The flickering candlelight illuminated two faces, one of which was Song Hongtao, and the other was also Song Hongtao...

Bah, it’s Butler Wang.

Butler Wang was reporting to Song Hongtao everything that had happened before. As Butler Wang expected, Song Hongtao was not angry because Butler Wang beat Xiao Cui to death.

Just a maid.

After hearing this, Song Hongtao sneered and said indifferently: "Once they gain power, they become arrogant. This is the kind of person I'm talking about. They don't know how to keep a low profile. What a fool."

"Does he really think he can become the legitimate son and inherit the title of Duke? But it's better this way. Being a little stupid makes it easier to control. There's no need to worry about Song Yan. Just arrange someone to keep an eye on him. These days, he can act as arrogant as he wants. He won't be able to act arrogant for long."

After Butler Wang left, Song Hongtao exhaled, narrowed his eyes, and stared at the papers on the table, wondering what he was thinking about.

The night wind blows in from the window.

call.

The candlelight flickered.

Perhaps it was because of the sudden chill, or the restlessness in his chest, but goose bumps appeared on Song Hongtao's neck.

Just then, footsteps were heard, and it was Yang.

She wanted to discuss the dowry with Song Hongtao.

"Let's follow the Luo family's standards." After thinking for a moment, Song Hongtao said, "Even though I'm marrying into the family, I can't bring shame to the Song family."

Wealthy families value respectability, and dowries and betrothal gifts are often equal.

Yang nodded in agreement, but she felt a little unconvinced. How could a mere bastard deserve a dowry of seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver? However, since this matter was being handled by her, she had a lot of room for maneuver. Thinking of this, Yang began to make a plan.

Qingzhuyuan.

There was a white sheet on the bed, and her long black hair was spread on it. The black and white were clearly distinguished, just like a waterfall in an ink painting.

Outside the window, the cold wind was blowing, and under the bright white moonlight, Song Yan did not feel cold. On the contrary, a warmth gradually grew from his lower abdomen, like a trickle of water, sliding through his limbs and bones.

Song Yan unconsciously used the method in the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror. The warmth he felt was probably his internal strength.

Despite a sleepless night, Song Yan didn't feel the slightest bit sleepy. Once his breathing stabilized, he put on his clothes and got out of bed. At this moment, Song Yan felt that he was in a very special state, his mind was empty. If it weren't for the older sister lying limp and already asleep on the bed behind him, Song Yan would even think that everything he had experienced before was just a dream.

This should be the so-called sage state? Thinking of this, Song Yan couldn't help but chuckle.

However, the sage state is quite beneficial for cultivation. In the ethereal state, Song Yan can even clearly feel the thin air currents like spider silk in his body, slowly flowing along their trajectories.

Unfortunately, this state lasted too short a time and the feeling disappeared before long.

It turns out that not every woman can let a man with a golden waist lean against the wall.

That fairy in white... well, since she is a fairy, she must be extraordinary.

Looking at Gu Banxia's soft profile, Song Yan couldn't help but sigh. If he had met a woman like this in his previous life, he probably would not have been able to marry her no matter what, right?

Pulling the quilt over his body, Song Yan left the bedroom and came to the front hall.

He now has internal energy growing in his body, which can be considered as the first step to the threshold of martial arts. However, it would not be enough to just have internal energy without any special moves.

He stood in the front hall, closed his eyes, and searched his mind for memories. Unfortunately, he had never learned anything like Sanda, Muay Thai, or Karate. The only memories he could find seemed to be of old men and women practicing Tai Chi in the park, or some scenes from movies and TV series.

After thinking carefully for a while, he spread his legs, opened his arms, and began to slowly practice the ambiguous movements in his mind.

At first glance, it looks quite decent.

However, Song Yan was very clear that the Tai Chi he performed was only similar in form but lacked the spirit. He tried to mobilize his internal energy and integrate it into his fists, but he could not do it.

My internal energy is not under control yet, but don’t worry, I will be able to master it with more practice.

After practicing this over and over again for an unknown amount of time, Song Yan began to feel hot all over and breathless. Even with such slow movements, his legs became weak.

"Uncle, what are you doing?"

Gu Banxia's voice came from behind, a little hoarse.

Turning around, he saw that Gu Banxia had already put on her clothes. What surprised Song Yan was that apart from a hint of charm between her eyebrows and eyes, there was nothing unusual to see.

Song Yan couldn't help but sigh. Even if she was a woman, her physical fitness was better than his. If he didn't have a golden waist, it would be impossible for him to subdue this demon.

Seeing Song Yan staring at her, a blush appeared on Gu Banxia's face, and her eyes became more charming. She couldn't help but curse herself for being useless. What was wrong with her body? She could never control herself around her son-in-law.

"Practice martial arts." Song Yan picked up the silk towel, wiped the sweat off his face, and said.

The sky outside the window was already turning pale, and the quiet Duke's Mansion was gradually filled with more movement. Gu Banxia did not forget her duties as a maid. She straightened Song Yan's long gown and asked, "What kind of kung fu is this? I've never seen it before."

"Tai Chi."

"It sounds like Taoist martial arts."

"You also practice martial arts?" Song Yan was a little surprised.

Gu Banxia shook her head slightly. "The Second Young Lady practices Taoist martial arts, so I've seen some of them. But while Taoism emphasizes self-cultivation, I've never seen a Taoist master become as slow as a snail."

"How dare you tease me, you deserve a beating."

Song Yan pretended to be angry and raised his hand to pat Gu Banxia.

Gu Banxia's face turned redder and she looked more delicate. After serving Song Yan breakfast, she left the Duke's Mansion. Song Yan knew that she was going back to Luo Mansion to report the situation.

It was already afternoon when Gu Banxia came back, and there were three more maids around her.

Song Yan once asked Gu Banxia how she would describe herself to Luo Yuheng. Gu Banxia shyly rolled her eyes at him and uttered two words:
animals.

Well, beasts are beasts, and Song Yan doesn’t really care.

The beastly Song Yan was not so beastly as to eat all three maids that Gu Banxia had brought with her.

He had been living a very leisurely life these past few days, and even his practice was only superficial.

Even if you guess, you can guess that there must be many spies of Song Hongtao in Qingzhu Courtyard. At this critical moment, Song Yan will not leave any loopholes.

He just found a few books and made up for the history of this world, especially those related to Ningguo.

Song Zhen did come to visit once, probably because of Xiao Cui. Song Zhen really liked this maid very much.

Song Zhen felt it was a pity that Xiao Cui was beaten to death just because she accidentally offended Song Yan. He was even more angry when he saw Xiao Cui's body, which was torn and bleeding. She was just a maid. If the old one goes, the new one will come. Song Zhen didn't care much about it, but she was the maid next to him. If he spanked Xiao Cui, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
Song Zhen came to the house and threatened Song Yan in both open and covert ways, saying that if he gave Gu Banxia to him, he would not care about Xiao Cui being beaten to death. Song Yan pretended not to understand.

This useless guy who usually acted timid and submissive in front of him actually dared to act arrogantly in front of him. Song Zhen was very angry and was about to take action on the spot, but the old man Wang, the housekeeper, appeared at the right time and stopped Song Zhen.

In desperation, Song Zhen could only go to Song Hongtao to complain angrily, but he ended up being severely scolded instead.

Since then, Song Zhen has become much more honest.

Even the dumbest servant could sense something was wrong with such a change. Who could have thought that this unwelcome bastard would actually have a chance to turn things around?
Just three days passed in a flash.

In the silent night sky, the stars shine.

On the grass of Qingzhu Courtyard, Song Yan held a dogtail grass in the corner of his mouth. The night wind blew, and the furry dogtail swayed gently. He rested his head on Gu Banxia's soft legs, feeling relaxed and comfortable.

Gu Banxia's soft fingers caressed the boy's face, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She didn't know why, but her son-in-law always liked to lie on her legs. Although she felt shy, he was her son-in-law after all, so she just let him do what he wanted.

Her dark eyes gazed at the sky. Tomorrow, she would be getting married.

It feels weird!
