The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 36 We are husband and wife, we should be together

Li Ling was silent for a while, then sat down on the chair opposite her, and said, "You don't seem to like Qingluan very much."

His face was calm, but his tone was icy cold.

Jing Shu raised her eyes, looked at Li Ling with a slight smile, and said, "Why did my son say that? I married into the mansion myself, and I have never even met her face to face. How can I say whether I like it or not."

Li Ling said: "I remember last time I asked you to hand over the purple-gold inkstone to her, but you refused. Now I ask you to accompany grandma to see her in the palace, but you refuse. Why?"

Jing Shu sneered and said: "In my opinion, anyone you like should also be liked by the concubine. As long as you want, the concubine should obey blindly, right? After becoming your wife, the concubine should be obedient." Can't you have your own opinion?"

She paused slightly, trying to suppress the resentment in her heart, and continued: "I am also a person, and I have my own thoughts and feelings."

"Who cares about me?"

In the end, she was a little uncontrollable in her self-sufficient emotions, and her tone was choked with sobs.

After all, she was still complaining about him leaving without saying goodbye in the garden that day.

Why can't she understand the emergency?
Li Ling lost his patience, and said in a cold tone, "I didn't ask you to obey me in everything, but we are husband and wife, and we should be of the same heart after all."

Jing Shu dropped the account book in her hand, and the thick book suddenly fell on the table with a dull sound.

She stared at Li Ling and said, "I really want to be of one mind with you, so the Elder Son should treat me wholeheartedly."

Li Ling retorted with a cold face: "How do you want me to treat you? Ask yourself, have I ever treated you badly since you married me?"

Li Ling thought angrily: Why is this woman so unwilling to be content?

He was angry in his heart, and his tone of voice was sharp.

Both of them were annoyed, sitting across a table facing each other, their gazes were burning with anger.

In the end, it was Jingshu who looked away first, and she picked up the account book she had just dropped on the table, and continued to look at it.

Seeing her indifferent attitude towards him, Li Ling was so full of anger that he had nowhere to vent it, and his internal organs seemed to be on fire.

He couldn't help but wanted to argue with her, but he saw that although the little wife on the opposite side seemed to have calmed down, her small chest was heaving slightly and quickly, and even her thin shoulders shrugged slightly.

He couldn't say what he wanted to argue with her.

The two were silent for a long time, Li Ling scratched his head, and tried to speak: "I, I am impatient, and my tone of voice was a bit harsh just now." He glanced down at her face opposite, and faltered: " Don't be angry."

Jing Shu didn't answer the call and continued to look at the account.

Li Ling regretted his harshness to her just now.

He also knows that he is a cold face, and once he gets angry, it is even more terrifying, even his own younger siblings hate him.

Could it be that she was frightened by herself?

She was still young and thin, how could she stand up to his harsh words.

Li Ling regretted it very much, but he didn't know how to ease it.

When he was at a loss, Ziyun opened the door and came in. Seeing that the expressions of the two were not right, he didn't know how to speak.

Seeing her coming in, Li Ling asked, as if he had met a savior, "What's the matter?"

Ziyun looked at Li Ling, then glanced quietly at Jingshu's face, and said in a low voice, "The old madam just ordered someone to pass the message, saying that she is asking the elder son and madam to come over."

Li Lingzheng didn't know how to calm down with Jingshu. Hearing this, he looked at her and said, "I don't know why grandma called us?"

Seeing that Jing Shu still ignored him, he scratched his head in bewilderment, was silent for a while, then turned his head to look at Zi Yun and asked: "The person who sent the message, what is it for?"

Ziyun shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything."

Jing Shu got up, without even looking at Li Ling, she said with a wooden face, "You'll know when you're gone." After saying that, she went to get the coat from the hanger, and put it on by herself.

Li Ling smiled and walked towards Jingshu, walked up to her, touched his nose, and stretched out his hand to help her tie the strap on the shawl clumsily.

But he was in a hurry and couldn't tie it well.

Jingshu turned sideways impatiently, tidied up her clothes swiftly, walked past him with a wooden face and never looked sideways, only looked at Ziyun and said: "Take that snack too."

Ziyun agreed and walked to the snack table, looked at the snack boxes, and asked, "How many boxes do you want to bring?"

Jingshu replied: "Take two boxes for grandma and one box for Miss San." After finishing speaking, she pointed to the remaining two boxes, and continued: "The remaining two boxes will be brought to my mother tomorrow. They put them in a cool place and put them away."

Ziyun called Dan Zhu to ask her to put away the remaining two boxes of snacks, and followed Jingshu out the door with the three boxes of snacks that she was going to give to the old lady and the third girl.

He made five boxes of dim sum and gave them to his grandmother and his mother. Even her younger sister got a share, but he wanted to try a piece, but she refused.

Li Ling followed behind not far or near, with his head down, just in time to catch a glimpse of Ziyun dangling in front of his eyes with the three snack boxes.

It made him upset.

Walking halfway, I happened to meet Xu Wanning and the uncle, Jing Shu stood still, with a faint smile on her face, and said hello to the couple.

On the day of his wedding, he met his uncle Li Xian once during the family reunion dinner. Afterwards, Li Xian was ordered to go to the south to supervise the water control. He had just returned to the mansion for a few days.

The men in the Li family are all good-looking, and Li Xian is no exception.He is the eldest son of their generation, although he is only 26 or [-] years old, he has the demeanor of an elder brother, because he is a civil servant, he has a refined air in his gestures and gestures.

Seeing his elder brother, Li Ling strode up to him, and exchanged greetings with Li Xian, "Eldest brother has been busy all day since he came back, so he hasn't had time to see you in the future."

Li Xian replied: "When I just came back, I always had a lot of errands to explain to my superiors, and I didn't stay at home for a few days."

The two brothers walked in front while talking, Li Xian asked: "I heard that Sheng was going to inspect the city defense at the end of last year, this time I ordered you to be the commander."

Li Ling replied yes.

Li Xian tapped the jade bone fan lightly with his hand, and praised: "This is a showy thing, second brother should take good care of it."

Li Ling said indifferently: "I will try my best." Then he asked Li Xian, "Brother has done a great job in controlling the flood in the south this time, this time it's the cabinet's side?"

Li Xian smiled slightly, and said mysteriously: "It depends on the meaning of the Holy One." He paused, unfolded the fan in his hand, shook it twice, and whispered in Li Ling's ear: "I am inquiring in the inner room, Your Majesty should agree."

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled.

Jing Shu and Xu Wanning followed behind, and the words of their brothers naturally fell into the ears of the two of them. Jing Shu remembered that in his previous life, during the five years he was in the Zhenguo Mansion, Li Xian also made great contributions to water control, but in the end he failed to enter the cabinet , thinking that in her previous life, she was not close to any house in the mansion, and she didn't care about these things.

Listening to Li Xianxia's words, it seems that the matter has been settled.

Maybe in this life, some things will change.

Jing Shu winked at Xu Wanning, and teased Xu Wanning with a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Congratulations sister-in-law, brother is going to be promoted again."

Xu Wanning looked at Li Xian's back in front of him, gave him a hard look, and muttered in a low voice: "If such a lustful person can enter the cabinet, I really admire the vision of the Holy Majesty."

In her previous life, although Jing Shu was not so close to Dafang, she also heard about the matter of the Holy Lady bestowing Li Xian the concubine, and also heard that Xu Wanning had a very unpleasant quarrel with this beautiful concubine. Later, within a few months, this concubine He died because of an emergency.

It's not good to give a reward to a minister for his meritorious service, but to give it to a woman. Now Xu Wanning even blames the emperor.

Jing Shu quickly grabbed the corner of her clothes and signaled her to shut up. Xu Wanning also realized that she had made a mistake and closed her mouth resentfully.

Resenting the emperor is a serious crime.

But she really held her breath in her heart, and she couldn't vomit.

Jing Shu is careful and understanding, Xu Wanning likes to talk to her, she looked at Jing Shu and said: "Grandmother ordered you to be a housekeeper, you have been busy these days, do you still have time to go to my place for tea tomorrow? "

Jing Shu replied: "I'll go find you after finishing my important work in the past two days."

"It's a deal." Xu Wanning looked at Jing Shu resentfully.

Jing Shu nodded and replied, "I'll do it as soon as possible."

While speaking, the four of them arrived at Anxi Hall.
