The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 7 Separation
Jing Shu saw that Li Ling was covered with blood by herself, and the sullenness in her heart disappeared, and she took a warm bath comfortably.

Ziyun heard the quarrel between the two just outside, and tentatively reminded: "The servant girl seemed to be in a bad mood when the uncle went out just now. Miss, do you want to go out and look for the uncle?"

It was dog days, and even though the sun had gone down, it was still damp and stuffy outside, like a steamer.She just took a shower, so she doesn't like to go out.

"He came back after going out for a walk. Do you still have the melon from just now? Cut a few more pieces. I'll eat to quench my thirst."

Ziyun had no choice but to fetch ice melon.

It was ice-cold, and Jing Shu ate two pieces readily, and immediately felt refreshed all over.

After eating melons, Jing Shu leaned on the couch and picked up a book casually flipping through it.

Although she hurt Li Ling unintentionally, she still felt a little sorry to see that Li Ling was really angry.

It's just that she won't spoil him like she did in her previous life, and she won't go out to find him.But he was angry because of her, and she couldn't act like a normal person.

At least, make a show and wait for him to come back.

But after waiting and waiting, Li Ling didn't come back.

Ziyun couldn't hold back anymore.She couldn't help worrying about her master, she had a quarrel with the son-in-law just after entering the door, if she lost the favor of the son-in-law because of this, it wouldn't be her own lady who would suffer.

Ziyun called Zhu Dan and Bi Lu, and asked, "Where did you go when you saw my uncle?"

"It seems to have gone to the North Study." Bi Li replied.

Ziyun looked at Jingshu, and persuaded: "As a servant, miss, you should go to the study to find my uncle. If you give me a step down, my uncle will naturally stop worrying about it."

Jing Shu glanced further, he didn't come back at this hour, it seemed that he didn't plan to come back.

They were newlyweds, and he ignored her like this, obviously because he didn't care that the people in the mansion made fun of her as a bride for being unfavorable to her husband.

Then she has nothing to worry about.

Jingshu put down the book in her hand, pointed to the quilt on the bed, and said, "You guys will go and carry the quilt to the study for my uncle, it's so late, and he hasn't come back yet, probably there is something urgent to deal with. .He comes home late and wants to disturb my sleep, so let him sleep in the study tonight."

After hearing Jing Shu's words, the little girls were stunned.

"Miss, how can this be possible?" Seeing that the young lady was fighting with the uncle, Ziyun was worried.

Jing Shu's apricot eyes raged: "Just let you go. If Shi Ziye asks, I will pass on my original words to him."

Although my young lady looks weak, she has a stubborn temper.Ziyun saw that Jingshu looked unkind, so she didn't dare to persuade her anymore, so she called two little girls and asked, "Which of you two will send you off?"

Ziyun was really scared of this uncle, she didn't dare to make trouble.

"The cicadas on the tree outside are screaming loudly, disturbing the young lady to sleep, I'm going to stick to the cicadas." After saying that, Dan Zhu ran out quickly.

Before Bilu could react, Ziyun quickly hugged the quilt to her: "Then you go."

"me"

When you see my uncle frightened, am I not afraid?I'm still so young!

Bilu didn't want to go.

It is said that there are no weak soldiers under a strong general, so why do these confidantes in my hands seem to be more useless than the other?
"Go ahead, just say what I mean, can he still make things difficult for you little girl?" Jing Shu saw Bi Ling shy and still, although she was angry, she still wanted to cheer her up.

After dawdling for a while, Bi Li reluctantly left the room with the quilt in her arms, and headed towards the north study.

Ziyun fanned Jingshu, still feeling uneasy: If my young lady came here, a person as proud as Shi Ziye would not come back at all, so what should I do.

After a while, seeing Bilu come back with her mouth pouting, Ziyun called her and asked, "You just went to the study to deliver the quilt, did you say anything?"

Bi Li was still complaining about what happened just now, and replied with a wooden face: "Young master didn't say anything, but he looked uncomfortable. Sister, really, I was asked to do such a thing, but it scared me just now .”

Ziyun asked her to go to bed first, turned her head and couldn't help persuading Jingshu: "Miss, it's all right for you to have a few words with my uncle, why do you have to drive people out. My uncle must be annoyed, how about The servant will accompany you to invite the young master back."

"If he wanted to go back, he would have gone back. If he didn't want to go back, what's the point of asking him to come back?"

Ziyun wanted to persuade him again.Jing Shu turned around and said, "I'm sleepy, you all go to bed too."

After breakfast on the second day, Jing Shu took Ziyun to the front yard to greet the old lady. Before arriving at Anxi Hall, she saw a tall figure standing under a tree from a distance.

As if waiting for someone.

With sharp eyes, Ziyun hurriedly whispered in Jingshu's ear, "My uncle is definitely waiting for you. It's rare that my uncle can put down his figure and pretend to be nice to the young lady. You must stop in moderation and stop making trouble."

It's not that she has to fight with him, she just doesn't want to let herself follow the steps of her previous life.If Li Ling respected her, she would naturally give him face.

At least in front of outsiders, she will act as his good wife.

Jing Shu walked forward slowly, saluted Li Ling slightly, and asked with a smile, "It's so early, why don't you go in?"

She is wearing a lotus root pink gauze skirt today, such a fresh color makes her skin white as fat.

The little woman Tingting stood gracefully in front of him, no trace of displeasure could be seen on her bright face.

Li Ling didn't get a good night's sleep last night, the bride turned him away in such a tactful way, he was so annoyed that he couldn't sleep.In the second half of the night, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and felt sleepy, but he was harassed by mosquitoes again. Although there was a bed in the study room, there was no mosquito net. This night, mosquitoes "buzzed" around him for the New Year.

His eyes were dark.

Seeing that she was full of spring breeze, her complexion seemed to be better than usual.

Li Ling replied with a cold face: "I came early, I was afraid that my grandmother would not get up yet, so I waited outside."

It turned out that she was acting affectionate, and he wasn't waiting for her on purpose!
"Oh, the sun is coming, and I'm afraid of the heat, so I'll go in and wait for my grandmother." After finishing speaking, Jing Shu left Li Ling and walked slowly towards An Xi Tang.

Seeing that his wife had left just like that, Li Ling also stepped on his long legs and followed into An Xi Tang not far or near.

Mrs. Li's body has not been very refreshed since she fell into ambush, and she felt better after taking some conditioning medicine in the past few days.

Li Ling and Jing Shu greeted the old lady.

Since the old lady was ill, she had been concentrating on recuperating, so she spared the younger generation to come to pay her respects.Seeing my grandson and granddaughter-in-law coming to pay their respects first today, I feel very comforted.

The two sat down next to each other under the old lady.

Mrs. Li looked at her grandson and saw that there were several marks of mosquito bites on his face. She asked distressedly, "Didn't you hang a mosquito net in your room? How did you get bitten like this?"

Turning to see the grandson's daughter-in-law, it was all clean.

How could it be possible for mosquitoes not to bite such thin-skinned and tender-fleshed ones, but to eat those rough-skinned and thick-fleshed ones?

Seeing the grandson's complexion is also not good.

The old lady guessed eighty-nine in her heart.

Grandmother was careful and shrewd, so Li Ling knew he couldn't hide it, so he had to put it lightly: "Yesterday, there was a lot of business, and my grandson was busy in the study until midnight. I was afraid that I would disturb the bride when I went back, so I made do with the night in the study."

Mrs. Li saw through the matter of the young couple and didn't want to tell the truth, so she ordered: "No matter how busy you are, you should pay attention to your body. How can you sleep in the study room? Go back to your room early tonight and get a good night's sleep."

This is what my grandmother ordered.

Ask him to go back to his room.

Listen to what the old man says!

Li Ling was about to answer, when Jing Shu respectfully said to the old lady, "My husband is really busy with his official duties these days, and his grandson-in-law has neglected to take care of him. After a while, the wife ordered someone to go to the study to hang up the mosquito net, so that the husband If you are tired or sleepy, you can take a rest there for a while.”

Li Ling: "."

Is she going to completely shut him out?
One mouthful of "husband", it is very affectionate in front of outsiders.The words are also thoughtful, just like a good wife.

Seeing that her grandson-in-law is virtuous, the old lady naturally had no reason to be unhappy, she smiled and said: "You husband and wife respect and love each other, that is the best tribute to my old lady."

After finishing speaking, she turned to Nanny Sun, who was serving her personally, and said, "There is a fine piece of satin with clear water and green snow in the cabinet in the inner room. I think the color suits Shu'er. Take it and ask Shu'er to take it back and make clothes for it." stop."

After a while, Nanny Sun fetched the satin and gave it to Jingshu.

Jing Shu quickly got up to take it, and thanked the old lady.

"Grandmother, I'm here to see you." Jing Shu was chatting with the old lady when the third girl, Jin Yan, ran in from outside.

When the old lady saw her little granddaughter, she hugged her in her arms, but said angrily to her, "You're so old, you don't even know how to behave when you jump around, why don't you say hello to your elder brother and sister-in-law."

The third girl broke free from the old lady's arms, and said crisply: "Yan'er has seen the second brother and the second sister-in-law."

She saw a piece of snow satin on the tea table beside Jingshu, her big eyes rolled around, she turned to the old lady and asked: "Didn't grandma say that she would give me the snow satin to make clothes? Why did you change your mind and give it to the second sister-in-law?"

"Grandmother is biased." The third girl pouted.

"There's still a red horse in Grandma's house, that's for you."

"I don't want the red ones, I like the blue ones." Children always think that other people's things are better, and the third girl is the same.

"Children's, what kind of snow satin are you wearing?" Li Ling, who had been sitting silently by the side, said with a somber face.

The third girl was pampered and grew up. Although she was afraid of this cold brother on weekdays, but with her grandmother, she had someone to support her, so she naturally became more courageous.

"Second brother doesn't love my sister anymore after marrying a wife. I grabbed the coral string from me a while ago, and today I'm here to grab the satin again. Grandma, look at him, how annoying he is." The little girl was so wronged that she was about to cry Like.

Jing Shu was a little embarrassed, but it wasn't that she was reluctant to give up the satin to her sister-in-law.It was because her grandmother had just given it to her. If she gave it away easily, she would feel sorry for the old man.

"Jin'er, don't be upset, the two of us are half of this piece of satin," Jing Shu said with a smile.

The third girl is still pouted: the good things in the house are always available to her first, so why should she distribute them to this new sister-in-law.

She was not convinced.

But looking at the stern-faced elder brother sitting beside Jing Shu, the third girl didn't dare to get angry with her new sister-in-law.

"There is a tailor shop on Hexi Road, and the dresses they make are of novel styles. I'll take you there some other day, and let his tailor make new dresses for us, okay?"

Hearing that she was taken out of the house, and that she was going to make a new style of dress, the third girl was moved.

Her eyes were shining brightly, and she walked up to Jing Shu: "Is what the second sister-in-law said is true?"

Her biological mother, who is a princess, is not in the mansion, and Mrs. Li doesn't go out often.Although she has everything in fine clothing and food, she rarely has the chance to go out to play.

Jing Shu nodded.

Children's homes are naturally playful and lively. When Jing Shu said that she was going to take her out of the house, she forgot all the unhappiness in her heart, and smiled at Jing Shu: "It's better to be sister-in-law."

Out of An Xi Tang.Li Ling was going to the Yamen, and Jing Shu was going back to Qingfengyuan. Before parting ways with Li Ling, she stood at the gate of the courtyard and said to him with a smile: "My husband has worked hard on errands, so come back early in the evening."

With a pleasant smile, she still looks like a good wife.

But the phrase "come back early in the evening." It didn't mean half of it.

Li Ling is not stupid, can't you hear it?She said this to the servants outside An Xi Tang, not to him.

He still had a stern face, only nodded slightly to her, then turned around and strode out the door.

　Li Ling: Madame, do you know what you look like?

　　Jingshu:? ? ?
　　Li Ling: Drama master.
