Chapter 1575
With this shout, everyone looked at Aunt Mu even more contemptuously, as if she just came here to touch porcelain out of anxiety and kindness.

Mu Ruyan almost had a heart attack on the spot. She might have been pretending just now, but she was really on the verge of collapse. She couldn't utter a single word when she wanted to defend herself, so she could only run away with Xiaocui's support. .

After she left, everyone was still pointing at her back.

Xu Cheng hurriedly thanked the old lady Qi next to her, "Thank you for speaking up!"

Old Madam Qi lowered her voice, "That was your husband's concubine just now?"

Xu Cheng scratched her head embarrassingly. The old man sincerely helped her, and she didn't want to lie to him, "It's a bit complicated to say, she is the concubine, but I am not the wife."

After she finished speaking, she obviously felt that the old lady looked at her a little bit delicately, as if she regretted helping her.

Xu Cheng sighed slightly in his heart, and couldn't bear to brush off the kindness of the old lady. Listening to the discussion of those people just now, the old lady must have seen her former self when she helped her!
It's an old man with a story!

"I... originally had a marriage contract with the warlord, but what about me! What I want is the love and marriage of a couple for a lifetime, not the backyard life of a man with three wives and four concubines. I can't get this kind of exclusive love. Love, I'd rather not have it."

When he said the last sentence, Xu Cheng's eyes were firm, and his tone was more determined and serious than ever before.

A moment of trance appeared on Mrs. Qi's face, and she muttered to herself, "One couple in one lifetime..."

Xu Cheng nodded, "Maybe it's because everyone has different ideas! Even though I don't want to be in that position, there are still people who will see me as a thorn in their side and find fault everywhere."

The old lady Qi seemed to be recalling something from the past, and sighed with emotion, "Yes! Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing hearts, looking at a kind, innocent and weak woman, playing tricks to make you hard to guard against, you don't provoke them, they But I want to frame you and put you to death..."

Her family was originally the richest man in Guangning, and they were in the business of cloth merchants. There were branches all over the country, and the family was the only one.Later, with the rise of foreign cloth, her family's business gradually declined.

As the eldest lady of the Qi family, the matchmakers who came to her family to talk about marriage almost broke through the threshold, but she didn't look down on any of them. She just fell in love with a poor scholar, and she willfully refused to marry him. Her father couldn't hold her back. He could only agree to this marriage, and after that, he spent all kinds of money to help the poor scholar get through the relationship in the officialdom and help him to rise to the top.

It is said that when a man is powerful and powerful, he will dislike his original wife. Qi Yanjun doesn't believe this truth at all, but this happened to her. Mr. Cheng, who worshiped as the doctor of the royal family, brought back a delicate and weak woman one day. My little lady, she just treats her as a new sister and takes good care of her.

But the other party framed her everywhere, every second she was still showing off in front of her that her husband slept in her yard last night, and the next second she fell to the ground in pain, and every time this kind of time happened to be caught Mr. Cheng, who was returning home, bumped into him, and was greeted with angrily and accusations...

Qi Yanjun grew up spoiled by her parents since she was a child. She has a carefree personality and doesn't understand the intrigue between women at all. Naturally, she suffered a crushing defeat.

And Mr. Cheng, who has become more and more favored in the court, no longer needs his father-in-law's money, and is especially jealous of people saying that he has come to his current position because of his father-in-law. He doesn't know everything about poetry, poetry, and Fu, and those who know how to do business are businessmen, so they can't be called Mrs. Yushi at all.

Qi Yanjun also never expected that the advantages that were counted down by her husband at the beginning would all become an excuse for him to spoil his concubine and destroy his wife in the future.

At that moment, she realized that when she likes someone, her shortcomings are also advantages, and when she doesn't like someone, her advantages also become disadvantages.

She helped Xu Cheng today mainly because she had met Xu Cheng in the garden downstairs in the past few days. She would greet everyone with a smile and take the initiative to help the sick and weak elderly. impression.

Another reason is that when Aunt Mu walked over with her maid, that moment brought her memory back to 40 years ago, as if a sharp knife had dug up her already dusty scars, and she couldn't help it. So I helped the little girl next to me.

Now after listening to her words, she feels that she has helped the right person. This little girl's ideological awareness is really admirable!If she could do the same back then, would the ending be different?
But there are no ifs in life, and her life is coming to an end. The only regret is that the Qi family has closed more than 100 shops and only one is left.

The content of the chat between the two was heard by Twelve who was hiding behind the bushes. Since Xu Cheng was hospitalized, the warlord arranged for him to protect Xu Cheng's safety in the dark. He did not expect to hear such a conversation.

When changing shifts with Thirteen, he told the governor everything that happened after Aunt Mu came today.

Hearing Xu Cheng's remarks of "a couple for life", Pei Xiyan's index finger slowly stroked the teacup in his hand, his dark eyes were dark, making it difficult to discern his emotions.

"She really said she was engaged to me?"

"The subordinates heard it with their own ears."

A strange emotion floated in Pei Xiyan's heart. Xu Chen was engaged to him, and Xu Cheng in the hospital was obviously another person. Why did she say that?

Could it be that he wanted to convey this news to himself through Twelve?
Pei Xiyan's eyes were dim, and she asked after a while, "Where's Aunt Mu?"

Twelve hurriedly reported the news that just came from the mansion, "After returning home, Aunt Mu said she wanted to see the warlord, and she also said that she did something wrong with good intentions today, and she begged the warlord to punish her."

Pei Xiyan took a sip of the bubbled tea, "Didn't you say anything else?"

Twelve shook his head, "No."

Pei Xiyan looked at him suddenly, "What do you think about this?"

Twelve's expression was slightly chilled. As a witness, he felt that Aunt Mu was wronged. She obviously didn't say anything, but she was turned pale by that old lady.

After thinking about it, he said: "The subordinates feel that Aunt Mu did not act excessively or speak inappropriately. Miss Xu also warmly invited Aunt Mu to sit down and chat, but that old lady is a bit aggressive and persistent."

He has been with the warlord for many years, and they all see Aunt Mu's character, she is gentle and virtuous, she does not fight or grab, and has managed the affairs of the mansion in an orderly manner over the years, and has a very good relationship with the other concubines.

Such a virtuous woman is the warlord's virtuous wife!
Pei Xiyan asked something irrelevant, "Xu Cheng has a good relationship with that old lady Qi?"

Twelve shook his head, "That's not true. Before today, the two of them had spoken once in total, so this subordinate was quite puzzled."
