Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 20

Breaking through the affair between a man and a woman in broad daylight was a big blow to Ningxiang, and when she heard Su Yue's frightened scream, she couldn't hold on to her composure and turned around abruptly.

Only then did Pei Jinghan let go of Suyue in a panic, as if he had just discovered Ningxiang.Su Yue didn't care to guess what he was thinking, she hurriedly turned to one side, and quickly tidied up the clothes messed up by the man.

Pei Jinghan wiped his lips, took a few steps towards Ningxiang, stared at the little girl's back and said, "Why did you come back so soon?"

It's a bit accusing her of coming back at the wrong time.

Ningxiang looked at Suyue who hadn't tidied up over there, lowered her head with a pale face, and said falteringly: "I..."

Of course Pei Jinghan would not really blame her, he stretched out his hand calmly, "Give me the water."

Ning Xiang pursed her lips, and handed over his special bamboo tube.

Pei Jinghan took it, and said while walking into the distance: "I want to go shopping alone, you wait here for me."

He gave them time to explain and accept.

Ning Xiang didn't even look at him, and walked towards Su Yue with a complicated mood.

Just as Su Yue packed her clothes, she turned her head and met Shang Ningxiang's worried eyes, feeling guilty in her heart.It was indeed Pei Jinghan who forced her just now, but she was also prepared. Although she was no longer as sweet and happy as she was when she was intimate with Pei Jinghan in her previous life, she had already disliked Pei Jinghan. She had failed Ningxiang's concern for her.

"Ningxiang, I..."

"You like Shizi?" Ning Xiang handed over the water, her voice low.

Su Yue took a look at her before taking it over, touched the cool bamboo tube, she exhaled lightly, and smiled at Ning Xiang with a little embarrassment, "I like it, Shi Zi is so good, and he is also good to me, so don't get me wrong , Just now, I don't blame him."

Looking at her happy smiling face, Ning Xiang didn't know what to say.

In her previous life, Su Yue questioned her about her feelings for the son, but she never had the chance to ask Su Yue.

"Then you want to be the son's housekeeper?" Ningxiang asked in a low voice, leaning against Suyue, and reasoned with her earnestly, "Suyue, not every housewife is as good as our wife, no matter Hou How many aunts does the Lord have, and she is not jealous. Do you remember the dream I said? Really, the Mrs. Shizi I dreamed of would not tolerate anyone, and sold you and me, Su Yue, listen to me, we Don't even do housework, can we redeem ourselves together?"

She doesn't blame Suyue for liking Pei Jinghan, there is no reason to talk about the relationship between a man and a woman, not to mention that Pei Jinghan is good at subduing women, only those women who have suffered a lot from him will recognize him.Ningxiang only hopes that Suyue will calm down, live a stable life after redeeming herself, and stop going through the hardships she once experienced.

Su Yue understands that she has good intentions, and she also knows that if she doesn't agree, Ning Xiang might do something stupid to stop her.

"Would you really sell me?" Pretending to hear it, Su Yue asked with a little luck, "But I am safe and sound. If I don't compete with Mrs. Shizi for favor, she probably won't deal with me, right?"

Ningxiang smiled bitterly, "Suyue, if the wife of the prince is as magnanimous as the wife in the future, there is no problem for you to think so, but in case the wife of the prince is really like what I dreamed, and she can't allow the prince to touch others at all, then you... Su Yue , don't be stupid, the son is not a good match, leave the Hou's mansion, and marry someone who is devoted to you in the future, so that you can live with peace of mind."

Thinking of the situation of the two of them jumping into the river together in desperation in the previous life, Ningxiang was afraid and distressed, hugged Suyue and cried, "Suyue, I don't want to see you go the wrong way..."

I don't want to see her sad for Pei Jinghan, don't want to see her being betrayed by Shen Youyou and ruined by a bastard.

Her tears wet her shoulders, and she was the only one who cared about her. Su Yue couldn't help but hugged Ning Xiang, "Okay, I promise you, I will redeem myself with you. But, you know him, if he is in this year and a half You and I always avoid him, and he will definitely find out that something is wrong, so you can hide as much as you can. If you see something like that between me and him, don’t be surprised. I know how to measure, and I won’t let myself It's a big loss."

Ning Xiang raised her head in shock, "But..." She also didn't want Su Yue to suffer a small loss, that kind of thing can only be done by husband and wife.

Su Yue wiped her eyes with a wry smile, and sighed: "Even if I want to accept it, I can't accept it all at once. Give me some time, anyway, if you trust me, I won't be stupid."

Ningxiang doesn't really believe it, but Suyue has already promised that the only thing she can do is to keep an eye on her in the future and remind Suyue when she is bewitched by Pei Jinghan.

Over there, Pei Jinghan felt that the two of them had almost finished chatting, so he turned back unhurriedly. Seeing that Ningxiang's eye circles were red, he was quite surprised, he didn't expect that she would be so sad that she would cry.

He looked at Su Yue questioningly.

Su Yue knew this person better than Ning Xiang, so she shook her head at him.

Pei Jinghan didn't understand what shaking his head meant, so he decided to ask Suyue carefully when he went back.

After this kind of thing happened, there was no need to continue admiring the flowers. Pei Jinghan led the two maids and walked out of the orchard.

Lu Cheng and Li Bo were waiting for them outside the garden. When they saw the three of them approaching, they went up side by side to see them off.

Pei Jinghan still didn't look sideways.

Lu Cheng glanced over his slightly cold face, and quietly landed on Ning Xiang.Seeing that her expression was wrong, as if she had cried, and then looking at Su Yue's swollen lips, he guessed that Ning Xiang was probably scolded for being an adulterer, so Lu Cheng secretly clenched his fists.

He couldn't see his sweetheart being wronged, but he couldn't do anything about it. The other party was almost the most noble man in Fucheng, and he was just an ordinary villager.

Watching the carriage go away, Lu Cheng's indescribable depression in his heart also strengthened his determination to help her redeem herself as soon as possible.

The carriage slowly went up the slope. In the carriage, Pei Jinghan closed his eyes and rested his mind. Ningxiang was silent with his eyes downcast, and Suyue didn't speak.

Back in the other courtyard of Liuxian Town, Pei Jinghan asked Ningxiang to go back to the house first, and he left Suyue alone, calling someone to his side, wanting to hold her hand.

Su Yue avoided it in time, pouted and said, "Your Majesty bullied me once in the garden, do you want to do it again?"

"You don't like it?" Pei Jinghan asked meaningfully.

Su Yue took a look at him, flirtatious and charming, and then complained irritably when Pei Jinghan's throat rolled: "I told you to stop at that time but you didn't listen, and it scared Ningxiang. I explained to her that sooner or later we They are all Shizi's people, so she wanted to open it up, but she told me about rules and etiquette, and said that she would be unhappy if the future Shizi's wife found out, and then she cried for some reason. Just don't do that again."

She had to give Pei Jinghan a reason why Ningxiang didn't want to give it to him. Being afraid of the rules was more satisfying to Pei Jinghan than dislike in her heart.

"She's not here at the moment." Pei Jinghan relieved his hunger a little, and stretched out his hand to Suyue again. The old god was sitting on the chair, and signaled Suyue to come over obediently with his eyes.

Su Yue looked at his slender and white hands, and sneered in her heart, once a man got someone, he would soon get tired of it.Although Ningxiang in the previous life really didn't want to give it to Pei Jinghan, Su Yue watched from the sidelines, but she understood from it that if she wanted to hold on to this man's heart, she couldn't just give it to him obediently if he wanted it, and let him wave it when he wanted it. then go.

"I don't care, Ningxiang has gone to rest, and I want to be lazy for a while." Relying on his so-called love for her, Su Yue briskly ran towards the door, and before going out, she turned her head and smiled at Pei Jinghan, and really ran away .

The little maid was pampered, Pei Jinghan was disappointed but not angry, Suyue's sly fox-like smile was all in her mind.

It was getting dark.

Ning Xiang was a little worried.

Tonight in her previous life, when she was helping Pei Jinghan wash his feet, he deliberately kicked over the basin.The water splashed all over her, Pei Jinghan pretended to help her up, but pretended to accidentally fall while hugging her... After kissing her for a long time, he even said afterwards that he couldn't control it because her clothes were wet and she was too tempting.

He took advantage of it and blamed it on her.

This time Suyue followed, Pei Jinghan seemed to care more about Suyue, but who can guarantee that he won't repeat the same trick?

Coming out of the upper room, Ningxiang went to the kitchen to bring water with a lot of thoughts, walked to the door of the kitchen, and saw Lianhua and her mother inside, both of them felt a little hostile when they saw her.

Ning Xiang didn't take it seriously, she politely said to Lianhua Niang: "Ma'am, is the hot water ready?"

Although Lianhua Niang was dissatisfied that her daughter was compared with these two maids and missed a good opportunity to ascend to the sky, she didn't dare to show Ning Xiang's face blatantly. Bring some water for washing your feet?"

Ning Xiang nodded, walked to the pot with the wooden basin, put the water basin, and was just about to pick up the gourd ladle, a person beside him suddenly walked over quickly, grabbed the gourd ladle and said: "How can this kind of rough work be troublesome?" Sister Ningxiang will do it, let me do it, as long as my sister watches from the side."

It is a lotus.

Ning Xiang looked at her in surprise.

She vaguely remembered that in her previous life tonight, when she came to serve water, she only met Lianhua Niang, but Lianhua was not here, why this time...

She's different though, and it's normal for other things to change.

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you." Ning Xiang thanked softly, and stepped aside.

Lianhua smiled and bent down to scoop water for her, one spoonful after another, and soon the basin was three-thirds full.

"Enough." Seeing that she still needs to scoop, Ning Xiang reminded in time that it is too full and easy to spill, and she needs to mix some cold water.

Lianhua groaned and stood up straight.

The water tank was on the other side, and Ning Xiang picked up the water basin and walked towards that side, but when she didn't want to turn around, someone bumped her elbow suddenly.Although the water in the pot was no longer boiling, it was still extremely hot. Ning Xiang hid back in panic, but the hot water with white mist still fell on her feet, quickly soaking the upper of the shoe, and the inside and outside of the embroidered shoes were wet.

Unspeakable pain suddenly struck, Ning Xiang turned pale to avoid the still spreading hot water, her legs trembled, she almost couldn't stand up.

Lianhua Niang was taken aback, she was stunned for a moment, then quickly rushed to the water tank, scooped up cold water and poured it on Ningxiang's feet.

"It hurts..." Ning Xiang couldn't bear it anymore and cried out.

"It's okay, it's okay, just soak in cold water!" Lianhua Niang quickly helped Ningxiang sit on the bench, scooped up a basin of cold water and brought it in front of her, lifted Ningxiang's left foot to take off her shoes and socks, Ningxiang sucked in pain Angrily, after taking off a pair of embroidered shoes, her clothes on the back were wet with sweat from the pain.

Lianhua Niang also shivered, took off her socks, and saw that those feet that should have been white and clean were red and red, she thought to herself that it was terrible, and she pretended to be kind and scolded: "You said you were so careless, look at this hot Lianhua, hurry up and report back to the prince!"

She could see very clearly that Ningxiang was hit by her daughter on purpose, but they must not admit it.Ningxiang is so beautiful, the prince may not pay more attention to it, but after seeing the injury for a while, his heart aches, and knowing that it was done by his daughter, will he sell them in a rage?

Lianhua Niang tilted her head and reminded her daughter to calm down with her eyes.

Lianhua was full of jealousy and resentment when she made the move. Seeing that Ningxiang was injured, and thinking of the consequences of angering Ningxiang, she suddenly regretted it.

"Sister Ningxiang, I'll tell the son right now, and then ask my father to hire a doctor! Don't be afraid, my father knows Langzhong Liu, he is the best in medicine, and he will definitely not leave your scar!" Lianhua said incoherently, hoping These words can resolve her resentment, and hope that Ningxiang will not realize that she hit her.

Both feet were put into the water basin by Lianhua Niang, the water was clear and cool, Ningxiang was still in excruciating pain, and she didn't care about it at all.

Received no response, Lianhua looked to her mother for help.

Lianhuaniang urged her to report it quickly, and after her daughter left, she said many good things, with such concern, it seemed that Ningxiang was her daughter.

The pain subsided slightly, Ningxiang understood Lianhuaniang's fear, and thought of Pei Jinghan's cruelty to the servants, she looked at her feet and said: "If my feet are fine, as long as your daughter doesn't hurt anyone again, I won't expose it She, but if my foot is disabled, I will never hide it for her, and I will not intercede if the son punishes her."

Lianhua Niang looked at her red instep, and thought of Bodhisattva in her heart.

Suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, Lianhua Niang's eyelids twitched, and she went out in a panic, almost bumping into Pei Jinghan.

"Get out!" Pei Jinghan kicked Lianhuaniang who was in the way, and strode into the kitchen, followed by Suyue who was in a hurry.

The first thing Ningxiang saw was Pei Jinghan, and she lowered her head guiltyly when she met his pair of phoenix eyes that made no secret of her nervousness.

She is a girl, and she doesn't understand the complex thoughts of a man who wants to pamper everyone among his wives and concubines.It is said that Pei Jinghan completely treats her and Suyue as playthings, and sometimes he really protects them. It is because of this little bit of care that Suyue likes him, right?Ningxiang didn't like it, she just felt it was a burden, because she didn't want to give Pei Jinghan what he wanted, so she faced his good things with a guilty conscience.

And she was sitting there alone, in a miserable state, and Pei Jinghan's eyes were filled with indescribable grievances when she lowered her head.

His heart trembled violently, Pei Jinghan restrained his hostility, and squatted in front of her regardless of his dignity, to check her injuries.
