Period drama: Old Cao's carefree life

Chapter 92 Why don't you go to university?
That evening, at the Fudecheng residence.

Fu Decheng lay on the bed, his concubine beside him, her bodice half-open, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin. She leaned against him, her upper body alluring and seductive, her fingers lightly tracing his chest, her long, straight legs caressing him. Her eyes gleamed with a seductive light. "Master~~"

Such a seductive voice, such a graceful figure, yet Fu Decheng completely ignored her, impatiently pushing her aside, "Don't fucking flirt with me! I'm really annoyed right now, get out!"

Fu Decheng has no interest in anything right now; he's just full of irritation.

He already knew about the Ruixin Grocery Store incident because he had been scolded by Commander Zhang over the phone, which was why he was in a bad mood.

He wanted to vent his anger on his concubine, but he was powerless to do so.
The concubine immediately objected. As she grew older, the master kept her in his room less and less often. With several other women vying for her favor, it was only once every ten days or so. She had long been lonely and empty, spending most of her time alone in her room. Tonight, it was finally her turn. How could she be willing to accept this?

"Master~~~"

slap~
"Damn it, didn't you hear me tell you to get out?!"

In the end, the concubine could only cover her slapped face and leave with tears in her eyes.

Outside, several guards stared with gleaming eyes at the concubine, whose clothes were disheveled from her hasty departure, and they all silently swallowed their saliva.

Damn, it's so great to be the boss. You can marry one concubine after another, and each one is more beautiful than the last.

Look at that snow-white skin, look at that slender figure, look at that charming face with its delicate features.
They unconsciously tiptoed, their gazes fixed on the concubine's half-open chest, their eyes practically yearning to crawl inside.

The concubine clearly felt their intense gazes, glanced at them sideways, snorted arrogantly, and couldn't help but complain inwardly.

She never married Fu Decheng willingly; she was sold to him by her father.

There's a modern saying: a gambling father, a sick mother, a younger brother in school, and a broken woman.
Many people may just treat this as a joke, but these are true reflections of her, or even more so.

Her father was not only a gambler but also a drug addict.
Her younger brother didn't go to school, but he was a good-for-nothing.

Therefore, her fate was more tragic than that of the jokes. And then, her fate was even more tragic than that of those foot masseuses, as she was sold directly by her father.

She never had any feelings for Fu Decheng anyway. In any case, she had come to terms with it. Women are destined to get married eventually. Marrying a commoner and suffering every day is not as good as becoming a concubine of a rich man, at least she can live a comfortable life.

You've married her, but why don't you use her?

If you marry her and don't use her yourself, are you going to keep her for someone else to use?!
Only women who have deeply experienced the bitterness of being alone in an empty house know how difficult those days are.

After chasing the concubine out, Fu Decheng angrily threw the thin blanket aside, scratching his head in frustration.
"Damn it, who exactly is that Cao Weida kid? It's been so long, why is the Japanese still so concerned about him!"

This time, his intention in instigating Wu Dalaizi to cause trouble for Cao Wei Da was to test the Empress Dowager's reaction. If the Empress Dowager ignored it, he could be more daring in his probing.

To his surprise, the Japanese officer reacted so strongly. No sooner had he found fault than the military police headquarters called the puppet government's office, giving him a severe scolding that nearly turned him into a complete bastard!
Little did he know that his target, Wu Dalaizi, was already leading his men slowly approaching his residence.

"Captain Wu, you're absolutely right. This bastard is really afraid of death. He has twenty people on guard duty in two shifts every day. I wonder how many bad things he's done."

Wu Dalaizi glanced at the platoon of soldiers he had brought and said smugly, "I never fight a battle I'm not sure I can win! No matter how many men are guarding him, I'll take him down tonight!"

Haha, you make it sound like you haven't done enough bad things.

"Captain, you truly are a good official for the people! Punishing evil and promoting good, eliminating violence and maintaining peace, you are a role model for us all! When the people find out, they will all give you a thumbs up and praise you as a hero! Some people might even offer you a longevity tablet!" The adjutant smiled obsequiously, his flattery was shameless.

Wu Dalaizi beamed with joy at the praise. It's true what they say, Party leaders love sycophants. Look how well he said it!
"Hahaha. It's all what we should do, it's what we soldiers should do to build homes for the people."

One of his subordinates whispered a reminder: "Captain, it's Fu Xing, Fu Xing!"

"You think you know everything! Why don't you go to university?!" The adjutant slapped him on the forehead. "Get out of here! Why are you everywhere?!"

He scoffed inwardly. A soldier is a soldier. We both started as soldiers, so why am I able to become an adjutant while you're still just a lowly soldier?
The soldier who was beaten felt wronged. "I didn't say anything wrong, so why wasn't the captain happy? I even got beaten up."
Wu Dalaizi shoved him aside in annoyance. "I finally managed to show off, and you have to come and ruin it!"
What, trying to make you look cool?

They deserved to be beaten!

"Alright, enough chit-chat, let's get to work!"

"Yanpan, go and fence off the backyard for me, don't let anyone escape!"

"Lieutenant, knock on the gate in the front yard. Anyone who resists is killed on the spot!"

In the courtyard of Straw Hat Alley, Cao Weida looked up at the faint sound of gunfire in the distance, a slight smile playing on his lips, before paying no further attention.

Her face, flushed and glistening with sweat, was glazed over. She clutched her head with unfocused eyes, biting her pink lips with her pearly teeth, and humming a tune that was both painful and pleasurable.

The moonlight outside shone on the earth, casting a silvery glow over the dark night. After an unknown amount of time, a suppressed cry rang out, and then silence returned to the house.

After a while, the door was opened a crack, and Cao Weida, dressed in black, quietly emerged.

About an hour later, Cao Weida, having completed his performance targets for the evening, returned home satisfied, took off his clothes, and got into his warm bed.

Seemingly sensing something, the sleeping Xinghong involuntarily moved closer, and after catching her, she couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.

The next day.

Cao Wei Da, awakened by a special wake-up service, opened his eyes.

May is approaching, and the chill of winter has dissipated considerably.

"Madam, sir, the goat milk is ready."

Cao Wei Da grinned, "You should be secretly happy."

Just then, a knock sounded at the door, "Is Master Cao home?"

Squeak~~
The door opened, and a man in a police uniform walked in with a smile.

"Master Cao, may you be blessed."

"you are?"

"My name is Fu Xiong, and I am Captain Wu's adjutant. Captain Wu instructed me to bring you some local specialties that were just picked last night."

"So you're one of Captain Wu's men. Please come in. Have you eaten?"

"Thank you for remembering, we already ate before we arrived." Fu Xiong smiled obsequiously and ordered the people behind him to carry in a large box.
"Master Cao, everything is here. These are all yours. What are your orders?"

"Move the box on the right to the warehouse. Please thank Captain Wu for me and give him a message that I will arrange for him to have dinner with Ono-kun as soon as possible."

"Oh, thank you on behalf of the captain. You're busy, I'll go back and report."

After Fu Xiong left, Xinghong curiously approached the box and examined it closely.

After washing his face, Cao Weida handed the towel to the maid beside him and said with a smile, "Alright, stop looking. I'll let you look to your heart's content when no one's around."

"I've already told Little Ears to call two trustworthy brothers over. If you're bored at home, go out for a stroll. I have to go now."

"Oh? You're leaving already? Why don't you have breakfast before you go?" Xinghong was reluctant to leave. Since she started living with the master, she had no worries about food or drink, and her material and physical needs had been met like never before.

It is said that the quickest way to a woman's heart is through that thing. The more you walk that path, the more likely you are to enter her heart, and the more dependent she becomes on her husband.

"Be good, I have important business to attend to, be good." Although the words were gentle, the tone was full of unquestionable domineering authority.

"Oh." Xinghong pouted and agreed with a wronged look, but her eyes sparkled with excitement.

She didn't know why, but the more domineering Cao Weida was towards her, the more she liked him.

"Xiangzi." Cao Weida called out to Xiangzi, who hadn't been mentioned in a long time.

"Yes, master."

Xiangzi, who was wiping down the rickshaw, came running in excitedly.

Cao Wei looked him up and down and laughed, "Oh ho, you look a little fairer now."

Xiangzi chuckled and scratched his head. "That's all thanks to your kindness, sir. I don't have to work outside in the wind and sun every day anymore."

Cao Wei Da laughed heartily, thinking, "He looks honest and unassuming, but he's quite eloquent."

If you encounter a stingy employer, they might think, "You're so relaxed, it seems I paid you too much."

But Cao Weida wasn't short of a few coins, so he didn't care too much. "Take me to the police station, and then you can come back and serve Xinghong."
