The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 154

Pei An ignored the two of them laughing and playing, only had eyes for Song Guanzhou. He took a few steps forward to support Song Guanzhou, looking him up and down, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Song Guanzhou put his slender hand on his arm and shook his head with a smile, "Nothing, you must be tired from work today?" Pei An also shook his head, "It's the same as before, but recently several important ancient books have been sent from the local area, and the emperor arranged for them to be edited and proofread earlier, so I can't take leave to welcome my uncle and his family in person."

That's why Xiao Cang was so reckless and bumped into Song Guanzhou.

Now seeing that her expression remains the same, without any sadness or loss, I feel relieved.

Song Guanzhou was more affectionate than usual, and said softly to Pei An, "The jade dumplings you asked Alu to buy are very tasty. Bring them to the kids at dinner tonight."

At this point, Pei An helped her look towards Xiao Bei, "This is my fourth cousin Xiao Bei from my third uncle's family. He is only half a year older than me and my third brother."

Xiao Bei stopped playing with Qin Qingdong, straightened his clothes, stepped forward and said, "Greetings, my sister-in-law. Cang was rude and offended her. I am here to apologize to you on his behalf."

Song Guanzhou had a wound on his leg, so it was difficult for him to perform the salute. He supported Pei An and said with a smile, "Fourth cousin, please don't be polite. When I quarreled with Xiao Cang before, I didn't greet you. Please forgive me for being a little rude in the etiquette because of the wound on my leg."

Xiao Bei quickly waved his hands, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm glad my sister-in-law wasn't frightened."

"Don't take it to heart, cousin. I am irreconcilable with that bastard Xiao Cang. It has nothing to do with you, cousin. Don't apologize for him. Let's talk about our own affairs."

It was at this time that Xiao Bei had a good look at Song Guanzhou.

When they were arguing earlier, everyone was so busy trying to stop the fight that they didn't even take a good look at each other in the panic. But now that they looked closely, they realized that the woman in front of them was beautiful with either light or heavy makeup.

When we met earlier, this woman was wearing heavy makeup, which was gorgeous but elegant.

Now she has taken off her makeup, hairpins, and fine clothes, but her oval face is still charming with bright eyes, white teeth, and a lovely appearance.

She is indeed a rare and stunning beauty. There are few women in the Xiao family who can compare with her, even the once famous aunt.

Xiao Bei was surprised. He had seen this girl before, but he never thought she was so beautiful.

After the two sides exchanged greetings, Pei An helped Song Guanzhou sit down, asked about his health, and then asked about his injuries, "You were so flustered, did you hurt yourself?"

"No, don't worry."

As the couple's daily conversation ended, Xiao Bei's heart was already in turmoil. This was completely different from the rumors that spread to Jiangzhou. Pei An in the rumors had long become synonymous with shame.

It would be a huge joke for any lady to smash things in front of a brothel.

Otherwise, Xiao Cang would never have reacted so strongly and did not hide his dislike for Song Guanzhou at all. Now it seems that the rumors really distorted the truth and were completely different from the loving and harmonious young couple in front of him!

Xiao Bei was a little restrained in front of Song Guanzhou. Qin Er saw his embarrassment and pointed it out without hesitation, "Fourth sister, you used to be so restrained when you were on the stage smiling and picking flowers!"

"Er Mazi, shut your stinky mouth. I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are still so hateful."

Song Guanzhou laughed and looked at Qin Qingdong, "Erlang, tell me, how come your fourth cousin became your sister?"

Speaking of his youth, Qin Er couldn't help but be proud, shaking his head and saying, "There was a drama troupe in the academy. It was just for fun, but I didn't expect that there were talented people among my classmates. Among them, the round-faced Fourth Young Master was thin-skinned but thick-skinned. He played the role of Madam Fourth Sister very vividly."

Song Guanzhou turned around and looked at Xiao Bei, only to find that he looked exactly like the elder of the Xiao family, except that his round face had regular features and made him look more babyish.

Xiao Bei felt a little shy when his cousin and his sister-in-law looked at him like this. Qin Er couldn't help laughing any longer and his stomach hurt. He almost couldn't breathe while holding his hands.

"Guan Zhou, stop looking at me. Your cousin is almost dying because of you."

Song Guanzhou blinked his eyes and calmly comforted Xiao Bei, "My cousin has a face like a full moon, and he is really good at playing a female role. Don't listen to Qin Er's quarrels. He is not heroic enough when he plays a man, and he is very rough when he plays a woman. He is not good at anything, so he just envies you."

"Ha! Song Guanzhou, I am a man, please don't slander me."

Xiao Bei was also amused, and said seriously, "My sister-in-law has misunderstood. Qin Er is more realistic in his role as the fortune teller Ermaizi." After saying that, he told Pei An and Song Guanzhou what happened that year.

"Qin Er was short and frail. He carried a banner with pockmarks all over his face and went on stage mumbling something. Little did he know that the wind was strong that day and the man carrying the fortune-telling banner was blown off his horse and rolled several times on the stage..."

"Hey! Brother Bei, you are not a gentleman to say bad things about me in front of Song Guanzhou!"

Song Guanzhou looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Pei An's face beside him, "Speaking of which, if we want to dress up as a beautiful woman, I'm afraid my Silang is more suitable."

Pei An was helpless, "Guan Zhou, I never offended you."

Song Guanzhou reached out and lifted his chin. "Tsk tsk, with black hair, white skin, and eyes like waves, and with lip balm and powder, how can you not be beautiful?"

Pei An held down her restless little hand and pretended to be angry, "Don't talk nonsense in front of your cousin and Erlang." Although he said so, there was a doting look in his eyes.

Xiao Bei felt groaning in his heart for a long time.

This cousin has always been the most serious and proper one, rarely joking or joking.

Especially in front of women, I remember that the young couple were always angry with each other in the past, and their family members also expressed deep regret when they mentioned it. Pei Si, a good man, actually married Song Guanzhou, who was charming and cold as ice.

At that time, Song Guanzhou was still an extreme, persistent, yet aloof, thin woman.

Looking at it now, is there any trace of the past?

Even though she was not wearing the fancy clothes that I had seen her wear the first time, she was still dazzling and eye-catching.

The four of them, without any distinction between men and women, sat down under the grape trellis. Honeysuckle came forward to look at the new tea. Xiao Bei saw the fire scar on his old friend's face and felt a little regretful. Finally, he asked, "Did Zhenzhu meet with a disaster?"

The Pearl in the past, now Honeysuckle, bowed in front of Xiao Bei.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. It was my carelessness that caused the curtain to catch fire while I was sleeping, and it fell on my face and caused this. Now it just looks scary, but there is nothing else wrong with it."

Zhenzhu, the maid who grew up with her sister.

Xiao Bei sighed, "Those who survive a great disaster will surely have good fortune in the future."

Honeysuckle smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Fourth Young Master."

In Nuanfeng Garden, Mrs. Min and Wang Qionglan, the wife of Xiao Du's family, were cleaning Xiao Cang's face. Doctor Zhang from the mansion was also invited by Xiao Yinxiu to clean the face of Xiao Cang and the two servants.

"Don't worry, Auntie. There's no broken skin. The swelling and bruises will go away in three to five days."

He prepared the ointment and gave it to the maidservant serving Mrs. Min, telling her to apply it on her clean face three or four times a day, and the ointment would gradually disappear.
