for Advance Chapter
Riding Yutang's motorcycle, I came to Yingluo Manor again.
Perhaps all great families value the artistic conception of seclusion within the city. Like the Luo family's garden mansion, Yingluo Manor is also an elegant manor surrounded by flowers and plants. However, perhaps due to Aunt Yingji's personality, in addition to some traditional gardens and swimming pools, there are also hot spring saunas and a tropical beach pool in a large four-season glass house...
But apart from this, Yingluo Manor is more quaint than Luo's. Many of the houses are built according to ancient styles. The combination of modern architecture and ancient architecture is extremely artistic.
The housekeeper of Yingluo Manor was obviously surprised to see me coming the next day, but he still led me in respectfully and walked along the flower-filled path directly to Aunt Yingji's residence.
Compared to the other ancient buildings in Yingluo Manor, Aunt Yingji's residence is a two-story villa. It can only be said that Aunt Yingji is also very unique...
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Aunt Yingji, who was wearing a red cheongsam, a pair of shiny black stockings with a hint of pink skin on her slender legs, and bright red stockings on her feet. She looked graceful and elegant.
When she saw me, a joyful smile appeared on her face. Just as she was about to take a step, her beautiful eyes froze because of the butler next to me, and then quickly turned into a cold and clear look like the moon... For some reason, the butler trembled in his heart and hurriedly bowed and retreated.
When he walked back, Aunt Yingji came quickly over and took my hand and walked inside. At this time, I could smell the elegant fragrance on her body, like cold plums and fragrant pistils, but more of it reminded people of orchids in the valley.
Aunt Yingji seems to be very cold when dealing with others, just like the housekeeper just now, which is why she has the title of Queen of Magic City. But for some reason, she has treated me like her own son since the first time she saw me, and it can be said that she filled the gap in my maternal needs.
When we got to the villa and I just chatted with Aunt Yingji for a while, my stomach started growling.
I remembered being teased by Yutang this morning. I didn't even have time to eat a few bites before rushing out. I felt my face suddenly burning. Aunt Yingji showed a distressed expression and stood up to cook for me.
And when Aunt Yingji tied the apron directly around her slender waist, my expression still hadn't relaxed... Aunt Yingji is still not married yet, and I can guarantee that there is absolutely no man in the entire Shen City who has ever eaten the food cooked by Aunt Yingji herself!
Today she actually helped me personally... While I was feeling excited, my eyes were attracted by Aunt Yingji's back.
Aunt Yingji's slender waist really reminds people of a willow branch. It is not really that thin, but like a willow branch, it is flexible, slender, strong and thin. The twisting of her waist when she walks and twists the waist can fully display the beauty of a woman's waist!
Although her beautiful back is not as broad as that of men, it is unique among women. Her shoulders are round and not at all tough.
Look at her round and perky buttocks that almost split the fiery red cheongsam apart. The curve is wide at both ends and sharply narrows in the middle. She has a wasp waist and a perky buttocks, shaped like a gourd or a vase, and paired with that amazing pair of long legs in black stockings... What is the meaning of "stunningly charming"?
I shook my head, extinguishing that fleeting fantasy. No matter what, I shouldn't have any thoughts about Aunt Yingji, especially with that inexplicable dread deep down in my heart that made me feel inexplicably guilty whenever I fantasized about her.
When I forced myself to turn my attention to Aunt Yingji's actions, I realized that although her movements of cutting vegetables and cooking seemed a little unfamiliar, she did not make any mistakes in each step, as if she had been familiar with it many times. I couldn't help but sigh that Aunt Yingji was really smart.
If only... I had a mother like this.
As soon as this thought appeared, it grew like weeds, making my eyes slightly red and my breathing quickened.
Aunt Yingji didn't ask anyone for help. She worked non-stop for more than an hour and finally served three dishes and a soup. But in the end, she forgot to cook the rice.
I stared at Aunt Yingji's stunningly beautiful face, then for some reason I suddenly burst into laughter. After a moment, I wiped away a tear and said to Aunt Yingji, whose face was already blushing, "This has to be the most delicious meal I've ever had."
Well, a meal with a little too much salt, or too little, and the amount of soy sauce not controlled well, makes for the most delicious meal...
After I finally put down my bowl and chopsticks after picking up the best piece of vegetable, I asked Aunt Yingji, "Is Grandpa Jiang here?"
After a moment's realization of what this term signified, Aunt Yingji's pretty face froze for a moment, but then she acted as usual, saying, "Well, he's been living in the courtyard out back." Then, with a flicker in her eyes, she asked nonchalantly, "Dong'er, why are you asking him?"
I told her the whole story. Aunt Yingji seemed relieved, but this time a strange look appeared on her face. She said, "If it was Xiaoyu who asked, he should carve one for you."
Hearing Aunt Yingji say this, I breathed a sigh of relief. Just as I was about to say something, I suddenly saw a pale, extremely thin old man walk in and said to Aunt Yingji, "Miss, the invitation from the Municipal Party Secretary should not be delayed any longer."
Aunt Yingji turned her head to look at the man, a hint of anger seemed to flash across her pretty face, but it quickly disappeared. She only told me how to get to Mr. Jiang's residence, then left with an apologetic look on her face.
Since Aunt Yingji had left, I was naturally bored and would not stay here any longer. I quickly walked out and followed Aunt Yingji's instructions, walking deeper into the cave and soon saw a building that looked like a Taoist temple.
There was a person dressed as a Taoist child at the door, but she seemed to be a girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, and was extremely pretty. After I explained my purpose to her, I soon met Mr. Jiang.
A rough estimate shows that Mr. Jiang should be over eighty years old, but what is surprising is that not only does his face have fewer wrinkles and looks very rosy, but even his hair is still black and white, mostly black, and his back is not hunched or shrunken at all.
It seems that Mr. Jiang must pay great attention to health preservation... Is this the only way to maintain an appearance far below his age level?
When I explained my purpose again, Mr. Jiang looked me over for a moment and suddenly asked, "Li Dong...are you Xuetang's fiancé?"
I nodded immediately. Old Master Jiang stroked his beard and smiled, "Shao Liang has a good eye for talent, as he's already a master of Hua Jin at such a young age."
I was a little surprised that Mr. Jiang could see through my internal strength, but then I thought, it would be strange if I didn't rely on internal strength to still have a smooth complexion and black hair at this age, so I admitted it frankly.
"Since Xiaoyu asked you to come, I will carve it for you, but my hands have been a little tired lately, so I can't make new ones."
I was a little disappointed when I heard that, but Old Master Jiang smiled again. "But I can't let this junior come here for nothing. I have an old carving here that Xiaoyu asked me to do. I'll give it to you now."
Soon, Old Master Jiang asked the little girl dressed as a Taoist child to take out an exquisite sandalwood carving about the size of a palm. It was a fairy draped in clouds, carved with incredible precision and lifelikeness.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but I feel like this fairy's face looks a bit like Xuetang...
