The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 701 [Verse] I only hope that your heart will be like mine (20)

When Dong Qing returned to the house, Li Kun had already fallen asleep.

In the past, no matter whether one of the couple came home late, the other would have to wait. But like today, it was the first time that they slept separately.

Dong Qing sighed slightly. Shishu was hurt, so she went to the bathroom to wash up. After cleaning up, she went to bed lightly.

The next day, when she woke up, Li Kun had left without knowing it.

The servant slowly came in to serve her. Dong Qing saw that the scars on her face had faded, so she asked, "The injured area on her face must not get wet."

The servant nodded in agreement, and Dong Qing asked with concern: "Has the swelling in your waist gone? Does it still hurt?"

"It's okay. I took the medicine yesterday. This morning I saw that it had gone away and there was no pain anymore." As he said that, Shishu quietly asked his master: "Yesterday, the eldest son was not unhappy, was he?"

Although her husband didn't say anything yesterday, Dong Qing couldn't tell what he was thinking.

His maid hurt Qing Luo, but he was still unhappy after all.

Dong Qing held up her hair and said casually: "You are mine, you don't have to worry about this. Besides, when two people fought, you were both injured. My husband has no reason to blame you alone. That Qing Qing Luo is domineering, and it’s not like your husband doesn’t know about it, so speaking of this, I can’t blame you.”

Seeing her master supporting her, Shishu was naturally happy, but she still felt uneasy in her heart. She asked, "I'm worried that this will affect your relationship with the eldest son." She looked at her master and asked, "he, eldest son, I really don’t blame you for this?”

"No." Dong Qing said simply.

When the servant heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll be relieved." Then, she couldn't help complaining: "Yesterday, that Qingluo actually made arrogant remarks to me, saying that the eldest young master was obviously interested in her. It was you who instigated her, so the eldest son stayed away from her."

"Bah! You are the wife of the eldest son Ming Yuan. This bitch is so shameless."

When this matter was mentioned, Shi Shu was still angry.

Dong Qing could guess without the need for a servant's letter to explain that it must have been Qingluo's arrogant words that made her maid angry, so she took action against her.

Dong Qing replied: "If you bear with it a little longer, I will find a way to deal with this Qingluo."

After hearing this, the attendant hurriedly asked: "Young madam, what are your plans?"

Dong Qing replied: "This matter needs to be discussed in the long term. Go and see if Ping An has followed your husband out today. If he is in the house, ask him to come over later."

Dong Qing took the order and left. After a while, he came safely and told Dong Qing what he had learned.

Ping An is a calm person, but when he mentions this matter, he can't hide his excitement.

"Young madam, this woman really has a lot of background, should we tell the young master?"

Dong Qing pondered for a moment and replied: "It's better not to tell the young master." After saying that, he warned Ping An again.

Although Ping An is Li Kun's long-term follower, he is a very clear-minded person and knows that the young lady is a capable and intelligent person, so Ping An resolutely obeys everything she tells her.

After Dong Qing explained the matter to Ping An, she went back to arranging the families of the ministers who came from the capital. She knew that what happened yesterday made her husband unhappy, so she finished the important things and returned to the house early.

After changing his clothes, Dong Qing said to the servant: "I will go to the kitchen to cook some of your husband's favorite dishes."

The servant said: "You have been tired all day, and you won't rest when you come back."

"I'm not tired." Dong Qing replied.

Seeing his master's insistence, the servant said: "Then I will go and help you."

"No need, you are the only one serving in this room. Just stay in the room, in case your husband comes back and there is no one waiting in the room." With that, Dong Qing went out and went to the kitchen.Dong Qing was busy cooking when the servant came over. Dong Qing raised her eyes and asked, "Didn't I ask you to stay in the house? Why are you here again?"

The servant replied: "The eldest son is back."

Dong Qing was surprised when he heard this: "My husband came home early today. Go and tell him and ask him to wait for a while. The food will be ready soon."

"The eldest son has gone to Qingluo's place." Shishu muttered with a dull face, "He went there as soon as he entered the house. Why do you go to such trouble to cook for him here?"

After hearing this, Dong Qing's hands froze and she almost dropped the spatula in her hand. She was silent for a while and then replied: "I understand, you go back first."

After the waiter left, Dong Qing continued to be busy. When she and the servant brought the food to the main room, Li Kun had not returned yet.

The servant couldn't bear his temper and said, "Madam, how about I go over there and invite the young master over?"

Dong Qing replied: "This is his house, and he still needs someone to invite him back?"

The servant murmured: "That bitch might be able to pester the young master. I'm afraid."

Without waiting for the servant to finish speaking, Dong Qing waved her hand and said, "No need, just wait for a while." After saying that, she went to the inner room to change clothes.

She has always loved cleanliness, and when she was cooking, she was covered in oil fumes, which really made her uncomfortable.

After changing her clothes, Dong Qing walked out of the inner room, and it happened that Li Kun also came back from outside.

"You're back."

Dong Qing said calmly.

Li Kun nodded, and when he stepped into the room, he looked at the waiter beside him solemnly.

The master was not a difficult master, and he was always gentle to those around his wife. The servant could not see the displeasure in the eyes of the master when he looked at her.

He must have complained to her because of the fight she had with Qing Luo yesterday.

Shishu was frightened and quickly looked at Dong Qing with pleading eyes.

How could Dong Qing not see the dispute between these two people? She waved her hand towards the servant and said, "You go down first."

When only the husband and wife were left in the room, Dong Qing asked: "What happened yesterday was caused by Qingluo's provocation, and it was not Shi Shu's fault."

Li Kun was speechless. He took off his shirt, sat down at the table, and poured a cup of tea to drink.

Dong Qing saw that he was angry, so she sat down opposite him and asked, "Did Qingluo say something to you again?"

Seeing that Li Kun was still silent, she continued: "She is devoted to you, and she is deliberately trying to sow discord between you and me. You shouldn't believe her words."

Li Kun then raised his head, looked at his wife, and replied: "Husband and wife are one, and our relationship cannot be instigated by others with just a few words. I also know what Qingluo is thinking, but she is kind to me after all. You She is my wife, so I should be more considerate of her."

"Am I not caring enough for her?" Dong Qing asked with a frown.

Li Kun fell silent. After a while, he said again: "She has no relatives here anymore. She wants to go back to Beijing with us."

Dong Qing asked: "Did you agree?"

Li Kun nodded and replied: "I agree."
