The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 2 Back to the newlyweds

Jing Shu was awakened by the rustling sound of getting dressed.Opening his eyes, he saw that he was actually lying in the bathtub with only a pink apron on his body, and his whole body was submerged in the water. Li Ling was dressing with his back to her.

How is this going?Last night Li Ling clearly left her and went to the study.

A lot of water was sprinkled on the floor of the bathroom, and the pajamas were scattered around, looking a bit messy.

From the looks of it, they clearly had just experienced a happy event.

"When did you come back?" Jing Shu asked in surprise as she looked at Li Ling with a confused mind.

Li Ling was already fully dressed, he turned his head and said, "What are you talking about?"

It was a young face, slightly green but heroic.

It was when she first met him, or in other words, when she first married him.

what happened?Could it be dreaming?Jing Shu was full of suspicion, pinched her thigh hard, and the clear pain told her that this was definitely not a dream.

"I'm going to practice martial arts. You should pack up earlier. You'll have to rush to the front to pay respects to grandma's birthday." After finishing speaking, Li Ling stepped out.

"Miss, I will help you get up." After a while, a familiar figure opened the shower curtain and walked in.

It was Ziyun, the big girl who was serving by her side.

Less than a year after Ziyun followed her into the Zhen Guogong's mansion, her old mother was seriously ill, so she sent her home to take care of her mother.A year later, Ziyun's old mother passed away, and she was at the age to talk about marriage, so Jingshu rewarded her with a sum of money and let her marry someone.

"Why are you back?" Jing Shu asked in confusion.

"The servant has been keeping vigil outside, why do you ask that?" Ziyun brought a bath towel, and continued: "When the uncle goes out, let the servant serve the young lady to clean up quickly. Today is the old lady's [-]th birthday, and I will have breakfast later Go to the front to receive the guests."

Mrs. Li's [-]th birthday?
Isn't that the fact that she and Li Ling had just been married for a month?

She clearly remembered that she and Li Ling had been married for five years, and life was boring, so she proposed to divorce.Now it's back to the time when Li Ling was newly married! ! !
Jing Shu was in a daze, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.

Ziyun took a bath towel to wipe his master's body: My young lady's body is so beautiful, her skin is so smooth that water beads can't get on her, and her waist is softer than that wicker.

Even a woman likes her body, let alone that bloody son.No wonder she keeps vigil outside every night, and the inner room is always full of music and music?Seeing the faint red marks on Jingshu's body, Ziyun couldn't help feeling distressed: Miss was born more delicate than a flower, and my uncle is so fierce that he asks for it every night, how can Miss be able to bear it.

"Miss, my servant will let the small kitchen cook a bowl of bird's nest later." Bird's nest nourishes yin and is the most nourishing.

After tidying up, Jing Shu came out of the bathroom in a daze, and looked at the room. There was indeed a big red happy word on the carved window lattice.

While tidying up the bed, Ziyun said: "My lord, before leaving, asked the slave to tell the young lady that the ninth princess will come for today's birthday banquet, and ask you to get up and go to his study to fetch the purple gold inkstone. I met the ninth princess today, and let you Give it to her."

It's really the same as in my previous life!
In her previous life, she had just married into Duke Zhen's mansion, and it was also in time for the old lady's birthday banquet.In the early morning of that day, Li Ling pestered her on the bed for a long time before giving up. Later, when she went to take a bath, she followed her in and pressed her in the tub to ask for it again.

After she got up, Ziyun told her to go to the study to get the inkstone.The purple-gold inkstone is very precious, and Li Ling usually treasures it so much that others don't allow others to touch it. Hearing that he would give it to Qingluan, although she was unhappy at the time, she didn't dare to comment further.

Think about how many years she spent with him in her previous life, when did he give her something?
Jing Shu came to the study in a dull mood, picked up the purple gold inkstone on Li Ling's desk, put it in her hand and looked back and forth.

This inkstone was made of high-quality purple gold, with two green pine trees vividly carved on it, and there was a poem on the edge of the inkstone: insist on the green hills and not let go.

A good one, "Keep firmly on Qingshan and not let go." Li Ling really had the deepest affection for her.

Presumably in his previous life, Li Ling was afraid of men and women, so he couldn't give this thing to Qingluan face to face, so he borrowed her hand: let her, as a wife, help him and Xinshangxin to give and receive privately!
Did Li Ling treat her as a dead person?Does he care about her a little bit in his heart?

She was also extremely stupid at that time, she was obviously unhappy, but in order to please Li Ling, she still deceived herself to explain it to him: it is normal for a brother to give something to his sister, don't be so small.

After Jingshu took the inkstone, she returned to Qingfengyuan full of worries.

The little girl Dan Zhu came up to meet her, and asked: "Miss, just now the kitchen ordered someone to pass the word that the bird's nest has been boiled, how about preparing some shrimp cakes?"

"Didn't you just eat shrimp cakes yesterday? Why are you eating this again today?" Bi Li pouted at the side and asked.

"Miss ate sweet-scented osmanthus cake yesterday, but you were the one who ate shrimp cakes, you fool." Danzhu tapped Bilu's little head.

"You know I'm confused and you always hit me on the head, and you make me even more confused."

A few little girls were chatting and joking here, and Li Ling came in.

He has to practice martial arts for an hour in the morning, which is a habit that cannot be shaken by the severe cold and scorching heat.

The little girls immediately shut up obediently, bowed their heads, closed their eyebrows and eyes, and retreated respectfully.

Li Ling is cold-tempered, he talks and laughs casually on weekdays, and is the most respectful of rules, so the servants hate him.

This also has a good side, that is, she is never worried about a girl with an evil heart making a bed-climbing scene.The maids in the house always walked around him when they saw him, and if they couldn't get around, they were still two feet away from him.In front of him, it was as if a mouse had seen a cat, and he was so honest that he couldn't be more honest.

Li Ling entered the room, hung the green sword in his hand on the wall, and went into the bathroom by himself.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Jing Shu didn't follow in, he leaned half of his body out of the bathroom, and said to her, "Come in!"

He also has a lot of eccentricities, he doesn't like maidservants to serve him personally, and since he got married, he has taken care of bathing and other things by herself.

Jing Shu followed into the bathroom.Li Ling had already taken off his martial arts attire, and was waiting for her to serve and wipe his naked upper body with sweat.

Jing Shu hadn't recovered from the accident for a while, she took the wet towel from Li Ling's hand and helped him wipe his back.

He is tall and tall, and he has been practicing martial arts all year round, so he has a waist like a monkey's arm and a wasp, and he is in very good shape.

It's a pity that at the moment, Jing Shu's heart is flustered, but she doesn't have the heart to appreciate this lively picture of a handsome man, she just wipes it mechanically.

Seeing that he was only focusing on rubbing back and forth in one place, Li Ling turned around and took the towel from her hand, re-soaked it in the water basin, and handed it to Jing Shu again. Then he gently stretched his arms facing her, motioning for her Wipe the front.

He can't reach the back by himself, so can't he handle the front by himself?Jing Shu looked at him, who was used to being served by her, and thought depressedly: Apart from being more handsome, such a stinky man is not worth fighting for by women.
"what are you doing?"

Jing Shu was wandering here absent-mindedly, and when she heard Li Ling calling her, she came back to look, because the water dripping from the wet towel in her hand had already wet Li Ling's running pants.

Li Ling glanced at the absent-minded Jing Shu, and said displeasedly, "Be careful."

Asking her to serve and picking and choosing, this is the habit she gave him in her previous life!
Jing Shu stuffed the towel to Li Ling, and said with a wooden face, "I have to rush to the front in a while, and I will clean it first." After finishing speaking, she left the bathroom without looking back.

Jing Shu returned to the dormitory and called the little girls to come in and help her get dressed and put on makeup.

She sat in front of the mirror, looked at the beautiful face in the mirror, and compared it with her emaciated self who was "tortured" later, and her heart was really turned around.

Who cares about Li Ling!What gossip!And that Qingluan!Now that she is doing it all over again, she has to live well and live for herself.

In her previous life, since she lost her boudoir and married into the Duke of Zhen's mansion, she, who has always loved beauty, stopped dressing up.No matter how old-fashioned the clothes are, the simpler the hair accessories, the better.At that time, she was terribly afraid of those rumors, and she was always worried that if she dressed up brightly, she would confirm those rumors, make others laugh, and embarrass Li Ling.

This time, she will not wrong herself again.

Li Ling was a little unhappy when he saw Jingshu leave him aside and go out on his own.His bride has always been gentle since she entered the door, but today she actually puts on face with him.Could it be that in the past month of the wedding, all her previous submissiveness was just pretending?
After Li Ling finished washing, he left the bathroom with a straight face.When he returned to the inner room and saw his wife, his eyes lit up.

Jing Shu has already tidied up. She is wearing a floral skirt with a white background, and a bright crimson beige on the outside, and a green gauze belt wrapped around her waist, outlining her graceful figure.A head of cloud-like black hair is raised high, and a nine-tailed red gold phoenix hairpin is inserted obliquely in the bun.His eyebrows are deep, his lips are red.

The little woman is like a fairy descending to earth, shining like a pearl, indescribably glamorous and moving.

Except for seeing her dressed up on the day of the wedding, she has been dressed in a low-key manner during the month of marriage.His bride was born extremely beautiful, although plain clothes and simple make-up could hardly hide her beauty, but she was no more radiant than she was dressed up.

"Come over and have breakfast, don't you have to rush to the front." Jing Shu called out.

Li Ling made a "hmm" and walked towards her.

The maid served breakfast, and Jing Shu and Li Ling sat down at the dining table facing each other.Li Ling habitually waited for his bride to fill him with soup, cloth and vegetables, but he never thought that after Jing Shu filled his own portion, he used it on his own, without caring about him at all.

Li Ling was displeased, and just about to speak to her, he glanced at the beautiful but cold face of Furong, swallowed back the words he was about to say, and poured the soup himself.

"You don't have to worry. You are new to the mansion, and today you have a sister-in-law for the female guests. You can just follow your grandmother." Li Ling thought that the bride was a little abnormal because she was nervous about going to entertain guests.

Jing Shu snorted coldly in her heart, it was rare for him to plan for her.

In her previous life, she had just married into the Duke of Zhen's mansion, just in time for the old lady's birthday.She is a bride, and she is plagued by rumors, how uneasy is she in her heart?Where did he give her a half-sentence?

At that time, she was still unfamiliar with the people in the mansion, and she was neither a guest nor a host at the bustling banquet, and she was as embarrassed as if she was sentenced to death.Those noble ladies looked at her coldly as if they were joking, she was so ashamed that she was always aggressive.

In the end, the elder sister-in-law Xu Wanning, who was busy preparing the birthday banquet, couldn't see it, so she led her to the old lady's side.

At night, she was so ashamed and annoyed that she was covered with a quilt and was so wronged that she cried in the dark. When he came back in the middle of the night and saw her like this, he asked her as if to blame: "What are you crying for on the day of great joy?"

She was wronged, but she didn't dare to complain to him.She was afraid that he would be annoyed, so she bit her lip and choked up, saying that it was because she was homesick.

He didn't have the patience to ask more questions, and when he got into bed, it was the same as before, only caring about endlessly pestering her.

Now he came to arrange for her, but she didn't need it!

Do it all over again, she figured it out.She doesn't need to try to please anyone.She has never done anything wrong, and she doesn't need to care about those rumors that deliberately slander her.

"Although the concubine is a bride, she is also the wife of the son of the world. There is no reason why my sister-in-law is alone in handling such a big event as my grandmother's birthday banquet, and I hide behind myself. I will help my sister-in-law to entertain guests today."

This sister-in-law is Li Ling's cousin.There are four brothers in Li Ling's generation, one cousin, one younger brother, and one half-brother.

Li Ling didn't expect her to be so assertive.

He picked up a piece of shrimp cake and put it in Jingshu's bowl: "Alright, then you can follow sister-in-law and let her remind you."

"The purple gold inkstone, my concubine has already brought it for the son of the world, and put it on the small table on the outer couch."

Li Ling took a sip of the soup, and said lightly, "Well, I'm sorry to trouble you. When Qingluan comes here today, you just give her the inkstone."

Jingshu lowered her eyelids, and replied coldly: "I can't do it for you."

Hearing this, Li Ling paused, put down the soup bowl in his hand, and asked, "Why?"

Jingshu replied with a wooden face: "I don't know her well, if the son of the world wants to give her something, he can do it himself."

　Li Ling: Ma'am, you are so beautiful!

　　Jingshu: Go away!

　　Li Ling was stunned: madam, how did I offend you again?
