First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 187
The house finally returned to silence.

I don't know how long it has passed...Nurse An pushed the door open and walked in, glanced at Du Rongzhi who was still sitting on the bed with her arms around her, stepped forward and called softly, "Young Madam..."

Du Rongzhi didn't move, her eyes were still staring at the pattern of melons on the quilt in a daze.

Nanny An had a sore nose, and quickly lowered her head to pick up the clothes that Song Zixun had left aside from the end of the bed, and put them on her bare back.

Du Rongzhi seemed to wake up like a dream at this time, and his eyes slowly turned to her.

The woman's quiet little face no longer had the unique and touching luster after every love affair, but instead became paler and colorless under the light of the candlelight.

"Mummy..." Du Rongzhi looked at Nanny An in a daze, and smiled faintly at her, "You're here."

"Hey..." Nanny An hurriedly responded, and forced a smile, "The hot water is ready, young lady, do you want to take a bath now?"

Du Rongzhi turned a deaf ear to it, and after a while, she asked softly, "What's going on with Mrs. Fu?"

"What else can I do!" Mother An was very sad when she saw Du Rongzhi's appearance, and she became even more angry when she heard the words, "I kept yelling that my stomach hurts—but I just invited him twice in a row. What an imperial doctor, look around, no one can tell why!" Mother An spat hard on the ground and cursed, "It must be that black-hearted and rotten whore who is playing a demon again , deliberately lured Grandpa to go there!"

Du Rongzhi listened quietly, curling the corners of her lips in a wooden way, "...It's fine..." She was silent for a while, and then realized later, "What did you ask me just now?"

Sister An sighed, and asked in a low voice, "The hot water is ready, and the maidservant asked someone to put medicine packs to relieve fatigue in it... Would you like to soak it, young madam?"

Du Rongzhi nodded slightly, "Ask them to carry it in."

....................................

The tubs were delivered quickly.

The steaming heat soon stained the woman's pale face with a layer of bright red... Du Rongzhi slowly rubbed the wet handkerchief on her body.

Her expression was serene and serene, and her movements were as calm and elegant as ever, but her delicate skin was already covered with bruises, and the original ambiguous marks were hidden in the bruises, and because she rubbed too hard, she looked even more shocking.

But she still didn't think it was enough, so she took a handkerchief and rubbed it vigorously on those deep and shallow hickey marks...

I don't know how long it took, until the hot water in the bathtub was completely cold, and she stood up from it as if nothing had happened.

...Nurse An is still guarding outside the clean room.

Du Rongzhi's unusually calm behavior towards Mrs. Fu tonight made her a little worried. She wanted to follow in to serve her but was rejected, so she had to wait outside anxiously.

Others may not be able to understand what kind of temperament Young Madam is, but she, a wet nurse, knows it all too well: Although my daughter is a bit headstrong, her heart is the softest and the most innocent.When she likes someone, she really likes him, even if she gives her heart to others, she will be happy... But the young master stabbed her in the heart again and again because of that bitch Fu ...

If the young lady could still cry like before, or complain to herself, Nanny An would feel better.

But she has nothing.

It's as if you're so calm that you don't care about anything...

Mother An was thinking worriedly, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that a long time had passed. Just as she was about to ask Du Rongzhi inside if she had finished washing, she heard the voice of the latter getting up.

Nanny An hurriedly put away the look on her face and walked into the clean room, picked up a change of clothes from the bed beside her and wanted to put them on for her, but when she looked up and saw Du Rongzhi, she stayed there -

The woman's snow-white skin was covered with large and small bruises, some places were even oozing blood due to rubbing too much, and cold water droplets dripped down her exquisite body, which was indescribably terrifying.

"Young...Young Madam..."

Du Rongzhiyun smiled lightly, "It's dirty." She wiped off the water droplets on her body, took the clothes from Nanny An's hand and put them on, "But it's been wiped clean...it's clean Enough."

Immediately, Madam An's eyes turned red, "Young Madam, why bother?" She shed tears in distress, "I know that you are wronged...but you are like this...why can't you tell the master? Now he thinks you are I don't care, even if I went to Mrs. Fu's place, I would feel ashamed at all—"

"Nurse." Du Rongzhi interrupted suddenly, and a cold little hand covered her wrist.

"There will be no next time." She said in a very light tone, "In the future, I will not humiliate myself again."

Never again.

....................................

Du Rongzhi didn't sleep well at night, and was woken up by Qing He the next morning.

Because he wanted to serve Song Zixun's meal, Du Rongzhi simply washed up and went to the dining room.

...In it, Song Zixun had already arrived one step ahead of her, and was drinking porridge slowly under the service of Fu Jingrou.

"My concubine is late, please forgive me." Du Rongzhi walked up to him with a smile, and bowed to him.

She changed into a goose yellow skirt today, and the delicate color made her more delicate than a flower, fresh and lovely.

Song Zixun's eyes lingered on Du Rongzhi's face for a moment, seeing that she looked calm, she didn't seem to be unhappy because of his departure last night, he was relieved and at the same time a little disappointed, he raised his hand, "I also Just arrived, let's sit down and use it together." He said and motioned for her to sit down beside him.

Du Rongzhi answered yes with a smile, and just as she was seated, she saw Fu Jingrou who was standing next to Song Zixun timidly stepping forward, and said in a low voice, "Last night, my concubine was unwell, which disturbed the young lady's rest... ...I also hope that the young lady will forgive me."

Du Rongzhi smiled kindly, "My sister is serious... You are pregnant with the young master's heir, and nothing is more important than your body now. If you feel uncomfortable, you must speak up immediately, but don't delay .” Then he asked with concern, “What happened yesterday? Even I was taken aback.”

Fu Jingrou pursed her lips in embarrassment, and said softly, "I don't know what's wrong with me, just at that moment, my stomach suddenly hurt like a needle prick..." She glanced at Song Zixun shyly and timidly, "Fortunately There is an elder and young master who is always with me, otherwise I will be so scared that I don't know what to do."

Du Rongzhi smiled slightly, and was about to speak, when Song Zixun cleared his throat, and said lightly, "Let's eat." While speaking, he put a piece of shortbread on Du Rongzhi's plate, "Today's cake is very good, delicious Crunchy and delicious, you should try it too."

"Thank you, Lord." Du Rongzhi thanked him with a smile, a cold look flashed across his eyes, and disappeared in an instant.
