pampering wife

Chapter 113

Thinking of what Junli said in the living room this morning, Qingmei couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.He was talking about marrying her as his wife, not a concubine, and the affection in it was intoxicating.It seemed that the lip-smacking last night, although a bit out of line, was delightful.

In Huazhi Lane, Xu's face was indeed full of worry.Although Junli sent a message, but to be able to tell King Ying to leave Qingmei in the palace, it must be a serious injury.But she is a commoner, how dare she inquire more about others?
She was restless, and at the moment she was waiting at the door, when she saw the carriage entering the alley, Mrs. Xu stared right at it.The carriages and horses stopped slowly, Qing Mei raised the curtain and poked her head out, smiling sweetly at Mrs Xu.

This smile reassured Xu a lot, he came to help her out of the car, and let those people go in to rest.The visitor politely declined, put down the ointment and other things brought over, and went back.

Mrs. Xu went back to the hospital with Qingmei mixed in. As soon as she entered the door, she couldn't bear it anymore, and hugged her in her arms, her voice was already crying, "What's the matter? I'm so worried!"

There is blue in her eyes, how can Qingmei not see it, probably because she didn't sleep all night last night.Qing Mei obediently clung to her arms, and comforted her: "It's just a small injury, King Ying made a big fuss, isn't it good to come back?"

"I heard Miss Chu said that you almost fell off your horse?"

"If you really fell down, how can you stand here properly at this moment." Qingmei smiled, knowing that Mrs. Xu loves to worry, she knew that she had roughly described yesterday's situation, only omitting the fact that she almost hit the cliff Festival.

The two mothers entered the house, and Luzhu had brought the hired women to take care of the wine cellar, but when she saw Qingmei came back, she rushed over to pour water.

When Qingmei saw her, she suddenly thought of Mrs. Gu's mother and daughter, and she couldn't help feeling worried.Back then when Gu Changqing sent Lu Zhu to serve her, he probably saw that Lu Zhu was devoted to her, so others could see it too.Now that she and Mrs. Gu have fallen out, if Lu Zhu returns to Gu's mansion, how can she live a good life?

But this worry can't be uttered now, Qingmei can only laugh and say that she is fine, to reassure the two of them.Mrs. Xu obviously had something to ask, so she asked Luzhu to go out first, and asked Qingmei: "Okay, why did that horse go crazy?"

The breath in the room was stagnant, Qingmei held Xu's hand, "Mother, I fell out with the Gu family."

"What!" Xu was shocked, "What's going on?" Although she had heard Qingmei explain Mrs. Gu's little things, she still thought in her heart that Qingmei and her were related by blood. The point of falling out?

Qingmei sighed, "Aren't you wondering why the horse went crazy? It's because Gu Ronghua shot a steel needle into it. The horse ran madly in pain, and the needle got deeper and deeper..."

"It was done by the eldest girl?" Xu felt inconceivable. After all, they were cousins, how could they do such a black hand?However, Qingmei's words were clearly stated there, Xu looked at her for a long time, and finally believed her.She sighed, "Does Madam know?"

"She and Gu Ronghua came to Yingwang Mansion this morning." After a pause, Qingmei simply explained what happened this morning in detail, thinking that the matter between her and Junli would eventually need to be revealed, so she also told Junli's story The words were repeated exactly.

Although Mrs. Gu's mother and daughter's deeds shocked Mrs. Xu, but Jun Li's words were more impactful.She opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't close it, and finally stammered: "You said that King Ying...he wants to marry you!"

Seeing her stunned look, Qing Mei silently bit her lips.Fortunately, no one else was present, so Xu's reaction was a bit exaggerated.

The two mothers chewed their ears in the room for a long time, and in the evening Chu Hongxiu came to visit, and the first sentence was straight to the point: "Qingmei, I see why the King of England is so interested in you?"

Qingmei had been interrogated by Mrs. Xu for a long time, and now she couldn't help but sighed, "Sister Chu, you don't even care about my injury, but this is what you care about." Chu Hongxiu waved her hand, looking very casual, "I saw it the other day. Your injury looks serious, but it's not serious inside, you're jumping around on crutches, so you're almost healed."

"Sister, you really have sharp eyes!" Qingmei lowered her head and bit her lips.

"Tell me, what's the matter between you and King Ying?" Although Chu Hongxiu was cheerful and generous, when he encountered such an interesting thing, he was curious. Seeing the suspicious red on Qingmei's face, he became more and more determined in his guess, "Ying Wang doesn't really like you, does he?"

There was no way to avoid it, but Qingmei developed a kind of courage to break the jar, and looked at Chu Hongxiu with a puffy face, "Why not?"

"I didn't say I couldn't, it's just... ouch, you didn't see the vigor of King Ying that day, he was holding you in a hurry, he didn't look like a prince at all." Chu Hongxiu smiled for a while, and when she saw Qingmei blushing He stopped joking, and turned to ask: "Is the matter clear?"

Qingmei looked up at her, Chu Hongxie said: "You don't have to hide it from me, someone must have tampered with it that day, I know the temperament of the bay red horse, and it has never gone crazy."

"Sister Chu, I'm sorry I lost a good horse of yours that day." Qingmei was a little bit sorry, she ran away and said nothing, that bay red horse is a rare good horse, it's a pity that it was ruined under the cliff like that.Chu Hongxiu couldn't help feeling a little distressed, but there was nothing he could do, "It's lucky that you are safe and sound. Who was it that day?"

"It's my big sister, Gu Ronghua." Qing Mei sighed.

"It's really a wicked heart." Chu Hongxiu sneered, "I'm afraid it's because of His Royal Highness?"

Qingmei was taken aback when she heard the words, and couldn't help but want to say "Sister Chu knows things like a god".But after all, she swallowed it down, and said in a low voice: "She feels that my status is not as good as the current ones." Junli's favor, Wei Xin's closeness, Gu Changqing's compensation, the care of the brothers and sisters of the Chu family... after careful calculation , although some things are unsatisfactory, she is actually lucky to have the care of these people.
