The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 132 Good Daughter-in-Law, I'll Vent Your Angry For You

Light footsteps sounded from the bow of the boat, Guo Baoyan clutched the handkerchief nervously, got up before the visitor could speak, and complained jokingly as he walked towards the door, "Why did my sister come so late? I've been waiting for you for a long time Well, that stinky girl Xiu'er said she was going outside to meet you, but she didn't know where she went."

Song Mingde's hand that was stretched out to open the curtain stopped, but he didn't see anyone, and just hearing the sound, his body felt a little itchy.

Cousin Ji Zhao told him that there was a girl who wanted to set up a scheme to marry into the Marquis's mansion to be the wife of the prince, but he didn't like it, and asked him if he was interested in accepting a concubine, and if he was interested, he would come and have a look, if she was satisfied, it would be the girl's Wish, if the girl inside is ugly, just turn around and leave.

Although Song Mingde lives in Cangzhou, his family is not as powerful as Ji Zhao's family, but he also has two uncles, and a bunch of women in the backyard are calculating all day long. He is very clear about these methods, and after a little thought, he understands this The girl's calculation.Anyway, he has nothing to do when he is idle, so it’s good to take a trip to join in the fun, as my cousin said, if it’s pleasing to the eye, it’s good to take it home and be an aunt to add more fun. It would be too bad, after all, even if a girl from a small family is designed, Ji's family only accepts concubines and does not marry or even reneges on debts, so the woman's family does not dare to make trouble.

Thinking carefully about the content of the letter, Song Mingde coughed softly, and said in a low voice: "Ji is late, Baozhu, don't be angry." Looking back at the shore, he walked in through the curtain.

Guo Baoyan was taken aback, quickly took a look at the man, and backed away in panic: "Who are you? How do you know Baozhu's maiden name? Why did you come here?" He was [-]% satisfied with the man's appearance in his heart, and couldn't compare with Zhao Chen, but he also He is tall and handsome.

Song Mingde was also surprised, and stared at the girl across from him in surprise and amazement, "You... I am Ji Zhao, the eldest son of the Zhongyihou Mansion, and Baozhu invited me here. Why are you here?"

The admiration in the man's eyes couldn't be more obvious. Guo Baoyan was determined in his heart, but with a look of despair on his face, he said after a while: "Baozhu, Baozhu, I didn't expect my sister to be such a person! She, she told me that she is very I hate you, but why did she ask the prince to come out and trick me, I..."

Before he finished speaking, his body shook suddenly, and he fell forward with his hands on his forehead.

Of course Song Mingde would not let the beauty fall to the ground, he caught her in time, and tightened his hands on his slender waist: "What's wrong with you, girl?"

"Don't touch me!" Guo Baoyan pushed him angrily, but his hands were light and weak, obviously someone had drugged him.Song Mingde didn't expect this girl to go so far in order to marry Ji Zhao, but he was happy to take advantage of the beauty, and he pretended to care and helped her to the bamboo couch, "What's wrong with you, girl?"

Guo Baoyan sensed the man's intentions, and secretly thought that as his mother said, all men are bad embryos.She deliberately let the man take advantage of her twice, then pulled out the hairpin and pressed it to her throat. After forcing the man away, she stood up staggeringly on the couch, and walked towards the stern crying: "My sister framed me like this, I don't want alive..."

She pretended to be the real one, and Song Mingde was also willing to play with her. He chased after her and assured her: "Don't worry, girl. Before, I admired Baozhu and wholeheartedly married her, but now I know that she has a heart of snakes and scorpions. On the contrary, she has caused the girl to suffer this humiliation. Don't worry, girl." , Ji will send the girl back to her home, and tomorrow she will come to propose marriage in person!" After a while, he asked for someone first, and later this girl still won't listen to him?Since he called Guo Baozhu his younger sister, he should also be a girl from the Guo family. Unfortunately, he didn't know the situation of the Guo family, and he didn't know the official position of the father of the girl Guo in front of him.

Guo Baoyan just wanted to lure a man to fall in love with her, but she didn't intend to lose her body on this boat, avoiding the man's hand, she stood by the side of the boat crying and begged: "Ji Shizi, this is because my sister hates me, sister The gap has unintentionally implicated the prince, and I ask the prince to leave quietly, so that I will just fall into the water and leave a clean reputation after death."

After speaking, he jumped into the river!

Since the man is tempted, he will probably go into the water to save her. When the time comes, the people arranged by his mother will coax her around, and Ji Zhao will marry her.

Song Mingde was dumbfounded.

He had heard of the scene of falling into the water to save people several times, but in this winter...

Forget it, it's worth it to earn a beautiful concubine after being frozen!

Song Mingde jumped down immediately, grabbed Guo Baoyan and swam to the shore.Although Guo Baoyan expected that the man would go into the water to save her, he was really scared at this moment, shivering from the cold, but he did not forget to pretend to struggle: "Your Majesty, let me go, let me die!"

"Shut up!" Song Mingde growled, just wanting to get ashore quickly.

Guo Baoyan was crying, and seeing that the maids arranged by his mother had arrived, he hurriedly begged: "My son's life-saving grace, Baoyan will never forget it, it's just related to family ugliness, please ask my son to help Baoyan once, if someone asks later How come you and I are together, Shizi, is it okay for Shizi to just say that I happened to pass by the bridge? Otherwise, if the truth gets out, my reputation will be ruined, and my sister will also... She is just playful and ignorant..."

Guo Baozhu hid behind the crowd, and the riverside was dark, and he couldn't see who the girl fell into the water, but when Mrs. Guo's second wife, Mrs. Xu, squeezed into the crowd with her maid, she instantly understood.

The person who wrote the letter was Guo Baoyan. She heard about her and Ji Zhao from nowhere and wanted to snatch the marriage.

Guo Baozhu couldn't believe it.

She didn't like Guo Baoyan since she was a child, and the two of them had different tempers, and they couldn't talk or play together, but they never had too much trouble, they just didn't like to pay attention to her.I don't want Guo Baoyan to act in such a play tonight. If that person is really Ji Zhao, Guo Baoyan has already succeeded.

"Baozhu, have you offended her?" Ji Zhao asked Guo Baozhu softly, leading the somewhat dazed Guo Baozhu to the other side of the street after the excitement was over.He didn't know Mrs. Guo Er, but just now the maid brought by Mrs. Xu in the crowd yelled as if she was afraid that others would not know, so he understood.

Guo Baozhu's hand has been held by him all the time, and now he is more or less used to it, besides, his mind is still on Guo Baoyan, "No..."

Ji Zhao sneered: "Then you have to be careful, you didn't offend her, she dared to use you like this and rob your marriage, just now on the boat, maybe she said some nonsense to frame you, this kind of villain, you will go back with you immediately Father and brother make it clear, let them help you out, here, this note is evidence. But don't worry, she won't lose money by stealing chickens, and she will go to Cangzhou to be a concubine in two days."

Guo Baozhu stopped slowly, picked up the note in her hand and looked at it, but couldn't see it clearly, she put it on her cuff first, then took two steps back to look at Ji Zhao, "Your cousin is already married?"

Ji Zhao nodded, "Yeah, if he's not married, I wouldn't let him come, dare to use your name to design me, these two crimes add up, let her be a concubine, it will be cheap for her!" Arrogant ruffian full of energy.

Guo Baozhu stared at him without saying a word.

Ji Zhao leaned over triumphantly: "How about Baozhu, I taught you a lesson for the bad guys, isn't it great?"

"Whoever uses you as a lesson, even if you don't make a move tonight, I will give her a good look!" Guo Baoyan took it upon himself, and Guo Baozhu was not so angry when he learned what she was about to face, but he didn't expect Ji Zhao to look timid Incompetent, but with a good head, not only was he not fooled, he even planned to take revenge on the villain.

"She wants to snatch me from you, how can I not make a move?" Guo Baozhu hid away, and Ji Zhao stuck to it, skillfully grabbed Guo Baozhu's little hand and ran into the alley, before Guo Baozhu hit someone, he said quickly: "Baozhu , when I proposed marriage last time, you didn't know my intentions. I will tell you tonight, I really like you, will you marry me? Don't worry, as long as you marry me, I will listen to everything after marriage Yours, if you beat me and scold me, I won't fight back!"

"Don't marry!" Knowing that he was not as strong as Ji Zhao, Guo Baozhu didn't struggle in vain, and leaned against the wall angrily.

"Why don't you marry?" Ji Zhao leaned sideways beside her, stared into her eyes and asked, "You see, she wants to rob me, which means that I'm not too bad, right? Baozhu, don't deliberately anger me, I know you like me a little too." He said in a low voice, holding Guo Baozhu's hand in both hands, touching and pinching.

Guo Baozhu's face was hot, so he touched him a few times, then took advantage of Ji Zhao's relaxation and withdrew his hand suddenly, turned around and ran towards the entrance of the alley, and after running a certain distance, he turned around and smiled: "I like you a little bit, but You are so old and you don't have any skills, so I don't like you. Aren't you working under my uncle? When you make meritorious service, I promise to marry you!"

Ji Zhao stood there dumbfounded, and shouted anxiously after fully recovering: "I'll take you home!"

"No, be careful if my brother sees and breaks your leg!"

The girl's cheerful voice came clearly from the crowd.

Wangzhuxuan.

When Zhao Chen came in, Ah Ju was still coaxing his daughter, Zhao Chen was a little surprised, and leaned on the edge of the kang to look at his daughter: "Why haven't you slept yet?"

Cancan grabbed the finger extended by her father and kicked her legs happily.

Aju smiled wryly: "I don't know, she doesn't sleep when she's full, she's very energetic today. How's it going, did you find the orb?"

Zhao Chen came into the house after washing, heard the words and went to turn off the lamp on the ground first, leaving only the fox lamp above his head to illuminate, took his daughter and coaxed him and said: "I found it, I was scolded by his brother, with a sad face. Ah Ju, you didn't tell Mother about the collapse of the lamp building, did you?"

Ah Ju shook his head, "No, it's useless to worry... We ran away quickly, but I heard that many people were crushed to death and the house was set on fire. Such a thing happened on a good day, really... ..." Because I was also in it when the incident happened, I can't help but feel scared in retrospect, and I feel more sympathetic to those who failed to escape.Among them, would there be a woman who came out to enjoy the lanterns with her husband, and there was a newborn daughter waiting for her parents to come home?

Looking at the well-behaved and lovely daughter, Ah Ju kissed her with red eye circles.

Zhao Chen was silent.

"Go to sleep, give Cancan to me, I think she seems to be sleepy." The daughter yawned a little, Ah Ju's heart softened, and she got into the bed and took her back to her arms, "Let you hug me for a while I'm sleepy, it must be because I didn't want to sleep because I didn't see my father before, we Cancan are really smart, we know how to worry about our father at such a young age."

Her voice couldn't be softer, Cancan blinked a few times, and slowly fell asleep.

Zhao Chen got up and turned off the lamp above his head, lay down beside Ah Ju, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Ah Ju, I guess someone knocked down the lamphouse on purpose."

Ah Ju froze, nervously waiting for the man to continue.

Zhao Chen hugged her tightly, put his chin against the top of her head and said, "Do you still remember the King Rui we met when we ran out? In fact, Azhu was snatched from me by force. At that time, I became suspicious, but I didn't Too sure, just a coincidence. Later, Zijing told me that Azhu Baozhu and the others went to the woodcarving shop to buy gifts before the full moon, and King Rui also went, and deliberately approached Azhu..."

"You mean, King Rui deliberately knocked down the lamp tower tonight because of Ah Zhu?" Ah Ju couldn't believe it, "Why did King Rui..."

"In order to make Azhu fall in love with him, love at first sight, a hero saves the beauty." Zhao Chen sneered, "Aju, you don't understand, men have many ways to make women fall in love with themselves. King Rui has seen countless beauties, no matter how beautiful Azhu is... , it is not worth his troubles, and the princes are not impulsive people for love, unless he wants to get something through A Zhu. And King Rui accepted A Zhu, and became a relative with the Zhao family. The benefits of it are you I can guess it. But King Rui dare not directly say that he wants Azhu, he is afraid that the emperor will see his motives, if he can make Azhu like him, and then slowly induce Azhu to take the initiative to enter the palace, the matter will not be resolved It's the same."

Ah Ju felt cold all over.

She believed in Zhao Chen, and also believed that her younger sister was not so beautiful that a prince could be sincerely moved. She was just afraid that her younger sister would be stupid.

Does my sister like King Rui?
Ah Ju didn't know, my sister never mentioned the woodcarving shop to her sister at all!
"Tomorrow, tomorrow is the fifteenth day. I'll go home the day after tomorrow. I'll make it clear to Ah Zhu that I won't let her get into trouble." Ah Ju pretended to be calm and said calmly. After speaking, she turned her head and got into the quilt and began to cry silently.

If my younger sister is tempted, she is stupid, but she feels wronged for her younger sister. She is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and she doesn't understand the complexity of the outside world at all, let alone a prince and grandson like King Rui who aspires to the throne.If my younger sister got into trouble, it would implicate the Zhao family, but if it wasn't for the Zhao family, King Rui would not have set his sights on her younger sister.

"Aju, you're overthinking again. Zijing and I don't mean to complain about Azhu." Zhao Chen turned the crying person back, and bit her displeasedly, "When it comes to this kind of time, you will Treat me as an outsider. Silly, if I marry you, then whether it is Azhu or Xiaojiu, I will treat them as my own brothers and sisters, and they are all family members. Don't think about it, okay?"

Ah Ju didn't speak.After the incident was revealed, she was afraid that her younger sister would never dare to go out to meet people again.Zhao Chen and Guo Zijing are both men, how can they know what the little girl is thinking?
Zhao Chen sighed helplessly, and while wiping his wife's tears, he said: "You don't need to tell Azhu, I told you to pay more attention when you go out with Azhu in the future, as long as we don't let King Rui meet Azhu again. Ah Zhu will forget about him after a while. You are her sister, you know best how to divert her mind. As a brother-in-law, I just protect you. Don’t worry, King Rui will soon have no intention of pleasing you. bamboo."

The emperor was young and powerful, he never thought of standing in line with the prince too early, but King Rui wanted to bully his wife's sister, so he didn't mind causing him some trouble.
