Cheng Fengtai slipped on the soles of his feet and groped into Shang Xirui's room, the room was dark and cold, and Shang Xirui hadn't come back yet. Cheng Fengtai took off his coat, took some charcoal and threw it into the brazier to light it. It is said that Shang Xirui is famous for his simple life in the corner, but his quality is still very high. It is said that the charcoal burned in the house in winter is shining like a piece of lead. It burns brightly without any smoke, and it burns for a long time. It is a good product brought from outside the pass. This expense alone is enough for ordinary people to eat food for one winter. Cheng Fengtai shook off the quilt and lay against the wall, the quilt was cold and thick wrapped around his body, it was colder than the outside, it made him shrink back and forth. He thought that when the little actor came back, he would strip him naked and drag him into the quilt to keep warm. Thinking of this, he fell asleep faintly.

I woke up again because the bed board suddenly shook. Cheng Fengtai struggled to open his eyes, the sky was not bright yet, the sky reflected the dim light in the room, and the charcoal fire was dying, making the dim light feel cold. Shang Xirui sat on the edge of the bed with his head half down, blankly wondering what he was thinking.

Cheng Fengtai turned over and put his arms around his waist, and found that his clothes were damp and cool, and the corners of the clothes were covered with frost: "Why is it so late? Take off your clothes and go to sleep." Pushing Shang Xirui, he didn't If he wanted to shake him again, Shang Xirui snorted heavily as he struggled.

Cheng Fengtai felt something was wrong, he turned on the light and saw Shang Xirui's face was hardened, without a trace of expression, he was leaning against the bed rail and sulking.

"Boss Shang, what's the matter? Who offended you?"

Shang Xirui sniffed again, snorted, and answered after a while: "Who! Your brother-in-law!"

Cheng Fengtai was taken aback, but immediately understood what it meant, stared at Shang Xirui for a long time, then fell down on the bed, and said angrily: "Singing a play was banned, turn around and go to the official to ask for advice. Why do people help you? Can you do it without paying a price? When did Boss Shang sleep with someone willingly?"

As a handsome figure in this industry, Shang Xirui was almost inevitably led to evil ways early in the morning. In addition, he doesn't like prostitutes, and he doesn't want to marry so early. Most of the actresses are aggressive and philistine, so he can only avoid them. Whenever there is a young man, he will naturally get mixed up with the rich and powerful men who hold the role. This is something that the box office of the tabloid theater troupes knows, and no one will make a fuss because of the ethos of this industry. But ever since the two of them had such a skin-to-skin relationship, things that they took for granted before now feel like sticking in their throats.

Shang Xirui was furious when he heard this, threw himself on the bed and beat Cheng Fengtai hastily with three punches and two kicks, then grabbed him by the collar and dragged him up, rolled up his sleeves, showing several large bloody bruises on his arms : "This is also called willingness? I want to sleep with your brother-in-law willingly, and I will be beaten?!"

Cheng Fengtai held his wrist and looked at it in front of his eyes. He was hurt like this after wearing too many winter clothes, it must be a serious conflict, he couldn't help being surprised and distressed. For him, it would be better for Shang Xirui to give in to the reality than suffer the pain of flesh and blood: "If you want to, just this time you will be as good as jade! How can you be his opponent with your little airs!"

Shang Xirui withdrew his arm and announced loudly: "I was willing without you in the past! Now that I have you, I don't want to! I'll run! I'll run even if I'm killed! It's none of your business!"

Cheng Fengtai looked at him deeply, and couldn't help but smile more and more. A boy like Shang Xirui expresses his love with such obstinate grunts, as if he were finding fault and arguing. Cheng Fengtai supported the back of his head, kissed him hard on the mouth, then quickly turned over and got off the bed and put on clothes one by one.

Shang Xirui was baffled, he didn't know why he got excited all of a sudden: "What are you doing? Where are you going so early?"

"Where am I going?" Cheng Fengtai put on his coat, bent down and straightened his collar in front of the mirror: "I'm going to find my brother-in-law for a gun!" After saying that, he strode out the door, Shang Xirui couldn't even shout at him .

It was already dawn outside, Cheng Fengtai gave fifty cents to pull the rickshaw, and asked him to call Lao Ge at home, Lao Ge drove there after a while, Cheng Fengtai slammed the door of the car: "Go to Cao Mansion!"

Lao Ge saw that he was usually an actor except for gambling and playing cards, and he hadn’t seen him do something serious for a long time—Old Ge thought that he always went to do business when he saw Commander Cao, so he cheered up and agreed very readily, and the car was faster than usual It was much faster, turned around on Qianmen Street, and went straight to Fengtai.

Cheng Fengtai lived in a prince's mansion, while Commander Cao lived in a magnificent four-story villa. The guards opened the big iron gate with the carved fence, Cheng Fengtai told the two guards: "Don't close the door, I'll leave in a while." He stopped the car at the main entrance of the villa, got out of the car, and said to Lao Ge: " Just wait here, don't go anywhere!"

Lao Ge said: "Look at what you said, where can I go?"

Cheng Fengtai said: "Don't get out of the car to smoke and chat, just stay in the car!"

Lao Ge smiled, not knowing why Cheng Fengtai was so talkative today: "Okay, I got it."

Cheng Fengtai straightened his collar again, coughed lightly before walking in. Cao's family was having breakfast at this time, Commander Cao was sitting at the head, his wife Cheng Meixin was on the right, and three siblings were on the left. Poor Cheng Meixin, who was used to nightlife in Shanghai in the past, now has to get up early in the morning to serve the dinner table. With bread, butter, jam and milk on the dining table, Cheng Meixin still kept her own living habits. Perhaps out of a desire to please, the three children also followed her taste. Only in front of Commander Cao was a bowl of sour sliced noodles, served with a large plate of white meat dipped in garlic.

Someone had already announced Cheng Fengtai's arrival, and the three children stood up and called him uncle very stiffly. Commander Cao pointed to the empty seat next to Cheng Meixin without raising his head: "Sit! Someone cut a bowl of noodles for you to eat! This vinegar is not enough!"

Cheng Meixin hurriedly called vinegar, and smiled at Cheng Fengtai: "It's rare for you to get up so early! What's the rush?"

Cheng Fengtai said: "Is there anything urgent? Just come and have a chat with brother-in-law."

Commander Cao grunted as he ate the noodles and didn't argue with him. He didn't feel very emotional, and even seemed a little angry. If he had seen his brother-in-law coming to the house, he would have spit all over the place and said different things. Cheng Fengtai drank a cup of hot milk, and noticed that Miss Cao was sitting opposite, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, wearing a woolen dress and short skirt, and a ponytail tied with a lace ribbon, this attire looked like it was made by Cheng Meixin. The pink and white oval face, the eyebrows and eyes are not so beautiful, it has a natural youthful atmosphere, and is also very shy, feeling that Cheng Fengtai is looking at her, his cheeks flushed, and he took a cup to cover most of his face by drinking water .

Cheng Fengtai smiled, this girl's tone is like a brother and sister with Shang Xirui. Anyway, he feels that all women and Shang Xirui are like long-lost brothers and sisters, looking at a particularly golden girl like Yu Qing, who has to open his mouth to see how to cultivate, and Shang Xirui is almost like mother and son.

Commander Cao picked his teeth and went upstairs after eating, Cheng Fengtai followed behind, Cheng Meixin waited for the two of them to enter the study and closed the door, then quietly followed behind and listened. Things that can make Cheng Fengtai get up early are definitely not trivial things. Cheng Meixin's success in her husband's house is that as long as she enters the Cao's house, there is nothing she doesn't know.

Commander Cao still took out a box of silver-plated cigarettes from the drawer and threw it to him, Cheng Fengtai continued but didn't smoke, sat on the arm of the sofa and made up his mind, and said: "Brother-in-law, Shang Xirui and I are good friends gone."

Outside the door, Cheng Meixin straightened up and cursed secretly, then continued to listen to the wall. Commander Cao stared in a daze, then laughed and lit a cigarette: "Okay! Don't you like the kind... the kind of girl with big tits who can speak foreign language? I didn't expect you to be so good! This actor is good enough!" Spicy! Tasteful!" Speaking of which, thinking back to last night when he was forced to rape and was punched by Shang Xirui, he couldn't help touching his painful face: "Little bastard has good eyesight!"

Cheng Fengtai didn't show any joking expression, he held the silver cigarette case and twirled it between his fingers, said in a deep voice: "Brother-in-law, you may not believe it, but I am sincere to Shang Xirui."

Commander Cao took a puff of cigarette: "He's quite attractive! He's hot enough under the bed, and hot enough on the bed!"

It hurt Cheng Fengtai's ears to hear these words, he stood up for a moment of silence, frowned and said: "Brother-in-law, you need me to explain, I'm in love with Shang Xirui, I don't want to see others treat him any more Any act of disrespect. Otherwise..." Cheng Fengtai took a deep breath and did not continue.

Cheng Meixin was so surprised to hear it outside the door that she couldn't close her mouth. She has heard Cheng Fengtai's tone since she was a child, and she knows best how to distinguish the truth from the false, and she can be sure that it is true without any additional proof. After just staying there for a while, a fight broke out in the room. Commander Cao originally staged a martial arts show with Shang Xirui last night, Shang Xirui's martial arts skills were not lost, much more capable than his own soldiers, he fell off the balcony and ran away after punching and kicking him, teaching him to eat I was full of suffocation and had nowhere to vent. Unexpectedly, early in the morning, Cheng Fengtai came to negotiate with him in a serious manner like the husband of a humiliated woman, so what has he become as a commanding officer? Have you become a lustful king tiger

Commander Cao felt ashamed and angry, especially because he always treated Cheng Fengtai as a child, all kinds of embarrassment, shame and anger added together, a martial artist had nothing else to say, so he drew his gun and shot at Cheng Fengtai: "Fuck you Damn it! You're a fart! How dare I sleep with an actor! Why don't you just see!"

The bullet pierced the cigarette case in Cheng Fengtai's hand, Cheng Fengtai's hand trembled, his heart trembled, he ran away in fright, and bumped into Cheng Meixin outside the door. Cheng Meixin exclaimed, Cheng Fengtai had already jumped down the stairs. Commander Cao chased after him cursing, and fired two more shots in Cheng Fengtai's way, one shot into the wall, and the other smashed a Greek-style plaster sculpture.

Cheng Meixin grabbed Commander Cao's arm, shook it from side to side, and burst into tears: "Commander! He made you angry and you beat and scolded him! You can't kill him! I'm just such a younger brother! Just take pity on me! "

In fact, with Commander Cao's marksmanship, it's useless to run away if you really want to hit you. If you don't want to hit you, it's fine if you stand there and don't run away. Originally it was just to scare the little bastard, Cheng Meixin shook and pulled like this, the pistol went off and hit the crystal glass chandelier on the ceiling, the chandelier was shattered colorfully and magnificently, shiny glass shards fell on Cheng Fengtai's head, and there was a burst of exclamation from all around. Miss Cao San and the youngest boy were still eating. They lived in the Cao family and were used to seeing people come in alive and come out dead. It was the first time my father saw his uncle drawing a gun, it was very frightening, he took his younger brother and hid aside, he watched Cheng Fengtai get into the car and ran away in a daze.

Commander Cao didn't dare to shoot indiscriminately any more, he leaned on the railing on the second floor, pointed the gun at Cheng Fengtai's back and said with a laugh: "What a coward raised by a little wife! He runs pretty fast! You say he can follow the bandits when they come. Like a rabbit? No wonder there are more soldiers in the cargo than I fought in the war!" Turning around and going back to the study, he seemed to stop being angry in an instant. Seeing that everything was safe and sound, Cheng Meixin wiped her tears and muttered in her native dialect: "Little bastard! If you dare to get involved with Shang Xirui, you will forget what you have taken care of... If you hate him, just shoot him to death!" Turn back and direct the servants to clean up the mess.

Cheng Fengtai's car drove out of the gate of Cao's house, and kept looking back to see if there were any pursuers. Old Ge Guang heard the gunshot, and then saw Cheng Fengtai running out of the tiger's mouth and yelling to run away. He could probably guess what was going on, thinking that the second master really had the foresight to ask him to stop the car at the door to meet him before touching the tiger's butt. Otherwise, it would really be a sieve, and then along the way, Cheng Fengtai was unbuttoned like a monkey in the back seat shaking his clothes, picking out the glass shards that fell from his collar.

After being frightened like this, Mr. Ge thought that he should go home and change his clothes to drink some tea, and then consult with Erye Fan. Not wanting the car to drive to the door, Cheng Fengtai waved his hand to continue driving, and went to meet Shang Xirui again. Sitting in the yard basking in the sun picking vegetables, Xiao Lai rolled his eyes when he saw Cheng Fengtai, thinking how many times do you go back and forth a day? Do you really consider this your home? Cheng Fengtai was stung by glass shards and couldn't stand up, and he was not in the mood to make friends with Xiao Lai, so he entered the house without touching the ground.

Shang Xirui didn't sleep last night, and now the charcoal in the room was burning warmly, he slept there with his butt curled up in a ball. It was almost noon, and the sun slanted into the room, with some fly ash floating in it. The sun shone on the pear wood table, on several blue and white porcelain jars, on the colorful facial makeup, and on a long gown. . Shang Xirui's breathing is leisurely, every plant and tree here is his breath, and the time is quiet and beautiful for a moment.

Cheng Fengtai couldn't bear to destroy this picture, so he stood in front of the bed and stared at him for a long time. Reluctantly, the pain in the back was tight, so he leaned against the charcoal basin, took off his clothes one by one, and brushed them. It turned out that several crystal beads that had been worn and angular were dropped into the woolen vest. Shang Xirui woke up when he heard the sound of beads falling on the ground, opened his eyes and saw Cheng Fengtai undressing facing him, rubbed his eyes and muttered: "You stinky rascal..."

Cheng Fengtai didn't want to be a hooligan, since he was said so, he might as well play it by the way. Smiling lewdly, he crawled under Shang Xirui's blanket and hugged him, touched his crotch with one hand, Shang Xirui's dick limply hung on his thighs, just as docile and unconscious as he is at the moment.

Cheng Fengtai rubbed him several times, then pinched him lightly, and said with a smile: "Why are you so depressed today? Don't you get kicked by Commander Cao?"

Shang Xirui glanced at him: "Rub it again! Rub it again and I'll piss on your face!"

Cheng Fengtai said with a smile: "This time, you're so sharp! It's you! If someone else saw this thing, I'd be disgusted to death! How about rubbing it for you? I haven't even peed on my son before!" The palm suddenly covered Shang Xirui didn't move between her legs, and said pitifully: "I said to go to Commander Cao to get shot, but you can still sleep so soundly? You are so heartless!"

Shang Xirui turned over: "Then are you eating a gun?"

"I almost ate it, my good guy, the bullets scraped my scalp and flew away. Fortunately, I was good at it, and I avoided it. If he wasn't my brother-in-law, I would have taken his gun! What warlord! Commander!" He didn't say it because he was still bragging about how fast he ran.

Shang Xirui got excited when he heard it, he stood up and said: "Wow! Really! Why did Commander Cao hit you! Say it, say it!"

Cheng Fengtai immediately entered into the emotions at the time, and said sullenly: "What do you think I'm going to ask him for? I said: 'Call you Commander Cao! How did you bully Boss Shang last night? Hmm? How could such a beautiful person like you? You can do it! Do you know how valuable Boss Shang is? Since you are my brother-in-law, I won’t care about you this time. I’m not afraid to tell you, Boss Shang will be my Cheng Fengtai’s person from now on! If you dare Move his finger, don't blame me for not recognizing the Cao family!'"

Cheng Fengtai spoke passionately, but Shang Xirui believed it seriously: "Wow! Commander Cao is furious! Where's Cheng Meixin? Did she hear that?" He paused, pinching Cheng Fengtai's stubbled chin: "But I How did you become yours? Obviously you belong to me! You are the second master of the merchant!"

Cheng Fengtai nodded: "Next time, follow Boss Shang's instructions."

"Then what happened to Commander Cao and Cheng Meixin?"

"Don't you know my brother-in-law's temper? Of course he would shoot him! My sister was crying beside me!"

Shang Xirui was so happy that he clapped his hands and rolled around, but he didn't hate Commander Cao, only hated Cheng Meixin: "Okay! Okay! Cheng Meixin is so mad! She pissed blood!"

He childishly felt relieved, Cheng Fengtai hugged him tighter under the quilt, and said to his ear: "Boss Shang, shall we be together?"

Shang Xirui agreed straight away: "Okay!" But couldn't understand the deeper meaning of the words: "Haven't we always been together?"

Cheng Fengtai's voice was soft and seductive: "Then it's settled, you can't sleep with others in the future. Not only Commander Cao, but I'm tired of you messing with those bastards."

Shang Xirui had this intention, just about to respond, he turned his head and said: "What about your second grandma?"

"Of course the second grandma doesn't count."

Shang Xirui also thinks that Second Mistress can't be counted, because Cheng Fengtai always plays outside and doesn't look like a family person at all. And when talking about the second grandma, she also used a very awe-inspiring and solemn tone, as if she was talking about the parents of their family, and there was no sense of intimacy that a man mentioned "the guy in the family" or "the mother of the child" at all. But Shang Xirui still wanted to say: "Why does Second Mistress count? Sleeping with my wife doesn't count, then I'll marry a wife too!"

"It's up to me to choose whether or not to be nice to others. It's my duty to be with Second Mistress, it doesn't matter whether I want to or not!" Cheng Fengtai said, "I'm not the same as Chang Zhixin." The implication is, He seems to be very moral.

In fact, in the current era, although the new school of thought has also advocated some ideas in books and newspapers, the old ideas are always more serious among the people. New ideas may not be wrong, but old ideas must still be right. For example, Chang Zhixin remarried Jiang Mengping right after the divorce, which was highly appreciated by the new school, but then he was expelled from the house. All the old friends in Pingyang except Fan Lian also cut off contact with him, and the whole family fell into disarray. The end of a betrayal. People don't think that he has a deep affection for Jiang Mengping, they only think that he is obsessed with sex for an actor. Obviously he can be a concubine or a concubine, so it's not considered wronged by an actor. It's too much to insist on such unkind and unrighteous things as divorcing his wife without reason, and denying his original spouse a living.

Shang Xirui also has more old-school ideas in this regard, nodded and said: "Second Master is indeed a conscientious one. But one day, Second Mistress must break us up?"

Cheng Fengtai smiled and said: "This is absolutely impossible. Even if you are a girl, this is impossible."

"What if there is? Either separate from me or divorce you!"

Cheng Fengtai really laughed out loud: "The more you say it, the more outrageous it is! If the Second Mistress had such an idea, she would never marry me from the beginning. She is the emperor's daughter in the north, so she doesn't have to worry about marrying, let alone annulling the engagement She has been married to a man and given birth to a child, and a bunch of young men let her choose whoever she likes. She has been tortured by old ideas! Only one life is lived. The meaning of life lies in this gone."

Shang Xirui sighed in admiration: "Second Mistress is a chaste and strong woman, she should be placed in the former court, a widow might get a chastity memorial after all! You are a fake foreign devil and don't care about this, you are worthless."

Hearing what he said, Cheng Fengtai was about to complain: "I really don't care about this. It is said that I am a flirt and have bad conduct, but the second grandma is chaste and chaste, so why did she ever fall in love with me? Whether it was with Zhang Fengtai or with me Li Fengtai, once the marriage contract is changed and the horoscope is changed, Second Mistress will insist on him not to marry, and it is not because of me that she guards the widow for him. After entering the door, as long as the husband is not such a bad man, Second Mistress will feel sorry for him, Taking care of him, putting him first in everything, and treating him well is not because of me. What am I? I am her career. Whether the family runs well depends on means, virtue and talent. "The Way of Husband and Wife" is the only thing that doesn't have a love character."

There are often wives from such families who support Shang Xirui, even married concubines and concubine singing, the eldest wives happily help Zhang Luo make arrangements to please her husband. Shang Xirui sometimes thinks they are virtuous, sometimes he thinks they are stupid. Hearing what Cheng Fengtai said today, he got to know them better, and felt that they were really pitiful. Because it is still possible for gentlemen to have a woman they really love outside the main house. But the wives have no choice, maybe they can only have a foolish and blind love for their husbands for the rest of their lives, or have no love at all, in any case, they will not be able to appreciate the love between him and Cheng Fengtai.

"That's why." Cheng Fengtai glanced at him: "What other wife do you want to marry? If you want to marry, you must marry someone you like and really like, one is enough. Besides me, who else do you want to like!"

Shang Xirui agreed deeply: "Well, then I'll marry you! This way Second Mistress will feel more at ease." Saying that, he caressed Cheng Fengtai's face.

Cheng Fengtai laughed and turned over to hold him down: "If you don't fuck with you for three days, you're going to rebel?"

The two frolicked, their guns went off, and it was another upside-down affair.
