The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 468

?When it was time, Aru came early with the horse and was waiting. Pei An climbed on the horse and said little.

Passing by Qianweizhai, the long queue made him impatient after a tiring day. Forget it, that woman wanted to be driven out by him, so how could she be bribed by such a snack?

Besides, he was sad too.

He squeezed the horse's belly with his legs a few times, and shouted, "Gee!" He returned to the mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his eldest sister-in-law and Uncle Hai talking. He was stunned for a moment. Seeing that he had stopped talking, the two of them came to greet him.

"Fourth brother? You are back from duty. Thank you for your hard work today."

Pei An even said he didn't dare. After greeting Qi Yueniang, he asked, "I heard that my sister-in-law had a fever a few days ago. Is she feeling better now?"

Qi Yueniang smiled gently and said, "Thank you and Guanzhou for your concern and for sending people to ask about it every day. It's just the usual excessive heat. It won't be a problem anytime soon."

"That's good."

Pei Hai hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and saying, "Fourth Young Master, from today on, please ask the eldest young master's wife to take charge of the household affairs."

Pei An showed no surprise.

He just nodded and said, "If you have any troubles, just come to me." Qi Yueniang smiled when she heard this, "Father made this arrangement temporarily. He hasn't taken care of household affairs for many years, so he is really in a mess."

Pei An comforted her, "Sister-in-law has always been a great housekeeper. It will be easy after a few days of getting familiar with her."

As for why Xiao Yinxiu was stripped of the power of the housekeeper, Pei An knew it without asking. When he returned to Shaohua Garden, everything was normal. Xu Lingqiao was playing watermelon chess with Song Guanzhou. Today, Song Guanzhou was not motivated to make progress and was too lazy to practice calligraphy.

Just grab my cousin and play together.

When Pei An came in, Xu Lingqiao stood up to greet him, but Song Guanzhou didn't look up and ignored him. Seeing this, Pei An sighed, changed his clothes and went to wash up.

"Guan Zhou, are you guys really arguing?"

Song Guanzhou shook his head, "Don't worry, sister. It's nothing serious. Husbands and wives are bound to quarrel. Just get used to it."

Xu Lingqiao poked Song Guanzhou's forehead with her slender finger when she heard it, "Don't be naughty. Husbands and wives should be honest with each other. If you don't say it and he doesn't say it, the misunderstandings will increase day by day, and the gap will become bigger, ignoring the love between husband and wife in the past."

"Good sister, just stay cold like this."

Ouch--

Xu Lingqiao said a lot of things, but Song Guanzhou remained unmoved. Xu Lingqiao patted her skirt and stood up to say goodbye. "I don't want to be a bystander while you and your wife quarrel. I'm having dinner with my brother today, so you two can just stare at each other."

Honeysuckle burst out laughing.

"It was the cousin who dared to speak up. As soon as we opened our mouths, the young lady fought back."

Song Guanzhou snorted, "I have my own reasons."

Xu Lingqiao left with a smile while Pei An was still here. Lianhua and Xile followed her and asked the girl in a low voice why she didn't stay for dinner.

"Silly girl, I feel a little awkward eating with the Fourth Young Master, not to mention they are upset today, so I'll just let them be together. Maybe you look at me, I look at you, and all the grudges will be settled."

Lianhua helped Xu Lingqiao up the stone steps and stuck out her tongue, "My cousin, you don't know that at the beginning of the year, the young lady and the fourth young master had a quarrel. That was really scary. The fourth young master was often so angry that he went to Yanlai Hall..."

"I heard you say that, but I didn't expect you would become a loving couple later on."

It's more than just love. Pei An obeys Song Guanzhou in everything. Lianhua smiled and replied, "It's because the young lady is amazing. She knows everything. She is brave and has saved many people. She is a living Bodhisattva."

"Living Bodhisattva?"

Xu Lingqiao glanced sideways, feeling very unfamiliar with this title.

"The servants in the mansion now all call the Fourth Young Madam that. She was the first female master who dared to go down the well to rescue people and retrieve corpses. I heard that a maid who used to be good friends with Madam Fang said that she had dreamed of Madam Fang several times, and she always thanked the Fourth Young Madam. Later, the Fourth Young Madam saved the two brothers, as well as Xiao's Fifth Son and Sister Dong."

"Because your young lady saved a lot of people?"

Lotus nodded repeatedly, "Cousin, isn't this a living Bodhisattva? The young lady jumped off the waterfall to save people. In addition to the lives of several brothers and sisters, the maids and servants who served these young nobles also survived. If it weren't for the young lady's instructions, I'm afraid they would have been sold out if they didn't die."

Xu Lingqiao listened and nodded slowly.

"That's true. If the young master makes a mistake, how can we not punish the servants?"

Lianhua helped Xu Lingqiao walk across the small bridge and whispered, "Young Madam is kindhearted and has never made things difficult for the servants, especially Sister Dong. I heard that Sister Dong had half her face destroyed and the Crown Prince's wife didn't want to use her, but Young Madam put aside her past grudges and accepted Sister Dong to manage all the affairs of Shaohua Garden."

How not to be amazed?

"Cousin, Sister Dong is the maidservant who came with the Crown Prince's wife as a dowry."

Xu Lingqiao paused, "Ren Dong is actually the maid that the Xiao family brought as a dowry?" This was a little unbelievable. After entering the threshold of Rongfu Garden, Lianhua told her in detail, and Xu Lingqiao suddenly realized, "There is such a past. I saw that Sister Ren Dong was meticulous and methodical in her work. She was in charge of welcoming and seeing off guests in Shaohua Garden."

He also has good handwriting.

"Sister Honeysuckle is good, but our young mistress is even better. After all, the Crown Prince's wife doesn't like her. With this status, if it were someone else, who would dare to use Sister Honeysuckle? Even if they did, she would be nothing more than a maid who sweeps the floor and guards the door. She would definitely not be as respectable as she is now."

Xu Lingqiao didn't show it on her face, but her heart was in turmoil.

My cousin is so brave!

Lianhua is right. If I were in his shoes, would I dare to employ someone of such status?

Definitely not.

Thinking of this, Xu Lingqiao sighed, "After all, I am just an ordinary woman. Compared with your young lady, I am far behind."

Lianhua quickly shook her head, "My cousin is also very capable!"

Not to mention the details, just taking a walk outside and coming back safe and sound is not something an ordinary girl can do.

Unfortunately, the more Lianhua praised her, the more uncomfortable Xu Lingqiao felt.

She thought of the blood jade that Ru Fei Lang Jun had grabbed from her hand and stuffed into her hand, and how they had promised to come to her house to propose marriage with such sincerity. How could it have been all in vain?

What Qin Qingdong mentioned today was later quietly told to me by my brother, and he also had good intentions.

But after being deceived by Huang Zhi, she could no longer trust others.

That's it!

It's just that it's more difficult for my brother to drag an old girl like her around...

After all, she is a daughter's nature. When she thinks of the joy that comes suddenly and then disappears silently, she can't help crying every time when it's late at night and everyone is asleep.

In Liu's mansion, Huang Zhi occupied Liu Furan's bedroom for quite some time.

"It is me who failed the exam, not you, Huang Sanlang. How can you be so defeated and take over someone else's place?"

Liu Furan was speechless.

Huang Zhi covered his head and said nothing for a long time before he said, "From now on, I will no longer have the face to go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."

Liu Furan cried out "ouch".

"I never thought you were such a romantic person—"
