Chapter 61 061 The Marquis is still the same as before...

Yun Sheng worked in a daze for the whole morning and almost gave the wrong medicine to the patient.

Did Xie Zhan really leave?

This was clearly what she had been looking forward to, but Yun Sheng felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

At dusk, just as the door of the clinic was about to close, it was knocked on by a series of urgent voices.

Ah Gou ran over to open the door. "Who is it? It's getting late today. I won't see you again. Come back tomorrow to get the medicine."

The person outside didn't say anything and just kept knocking on the door.

Agou curled his lips and opened the door.

When Bai Yuanbao's old face with wrinkles from smiling appeared from behind the heavy wooden door, Agou looked bitter.

"Why is it you, old thing? You evil thing, the villain who aided and abetted the evil and bullied Sister Yun."

He glared at him fiercely and cursed.

"Hey, you little kid..."

Before Bai Yuanbao could finish his words, Ah Gou hurriedly closed the door and said, "Please leave. Bad people like you are not welcome in our clinic."

"Everyone is a guest, a neighbor. Is this how Madam Yun... Madam Yun treats guests?"

Agou is a small man after all and has no strength.

"Agou, who's here? What's the noise outside?" Yun Sheng opened a window and shouted outside.

Ah Gou turned around, angrily saying, "Sister Yun, it's... it's those bad guys who left this morning."

While he was speaking, Bai Yuanbao raised his hand and two cold-faced guards had already pushed the door open.

Yun Sheng was stunned. Xie Zhan... Xie Zhan really didn't leave?

She walked out of the house quickly, and apart from the two guards, only the graceful and graceful Bai Yuanbao was left.

"Mrs. Yun."

Yun Sheng frowned. "Butler Bai, I told you yesterday, don't call me that again."

Bai Yuanbao pretended to slap his lips and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, it's getting worse with age."

"Madam Yun, I apologize for the inconvenience of visiting you yesterday. My Lord was rude. Now that we are neighbors, we can help each other in the future. I hope you will accept this small gift."

As soon as he finished speaking, he signaled a guard to come forward with his eyes.

The tray in the guard's hand was filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

Agou had never seen so much gold and silver before, and his round black eyes immediately lit up.

Yun Sheng's mind went blank and he was slow to react.

What nonsense is Bai Yuanbao talking about? What about the neighbors? What does all this money mean?

"Manager Bai, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush." ​​Yun Sheng curled the corners of his lips.

Suddenly, two loud "booms" were heard in the twilight, like a muffled thunder, and the pungent smell of dust filled the air. Yun Sheng subconsciously turned around and saw that the earth wall between the clinic and the neighbor's house next door suddenly collapsed and turned into a wasteland in an instant.

Yun Sheng's eyelids kept twitching. When the dust gradually settled, she finally saw the figure hidden in the night.

Xie Zhan stood there quietly, his expression calm, his dark and deep eyes unfathomable.

Bai Yuanbao stepped forward at the right moment and said, "This Wushan Town is truly a wonderful place, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. No wonder Madam Yun is willing to live here permanently. Our Marquis also thinks this place is very nice, so he bought the courtyard next door and settled here. I hope Madam Yun will take good care of us in the future."

Yun Sheng was so angry that he was shaking all over. Bai Yuanbao was really good at talking.

She pointed at him and asked, "Then this wall...what does it mean?"

"The Marquis said that this wall is shoddy and an eyesore. We should tear it down and rebuild it. We are all neighbors. Madam Yun wouldn't be so lenient as to even consider this. This is my apology for the inconvenience caused to the clinic."

As soon as Bai Yuanbao finished speaking, another guard came forward with a tray. Inside was rare gold leaves, which almost blinded Agou's eyes.

"Madam Yun will like it. It's getting late, so I will take my men and leave now."

Yun Sheng's face turned red and he couldn't help but spit.

"I don't like it at all if someone takes your things away." Her voice suddenly became heavier, and she didn't know who she was talking to.

"Also, if he's an eyesore, he should leave as soon as possible. Wushan Town is just a sesame-sized place, and there's really no room for his giant Buddha statue."

Bai Yuanbao choked and didn't dare to look at his master's expression.

He raised his chin and signaled the guards to place the tray on the stone steps.

In a moment, the courtyard became quiet. Yun Sheng didn't even look at the next door. He only heard the creaking sound of a door closing. Xie Zhan must have entered the house.

Agou looked at the gold, silver and jewelry with envy, his mouth watering.

He stammered, "Sister Yun... Sister Yun, how do we deal with all this?"

"Throw it away."

"Ah?" It was the first time that Agou saw Yun Sheng angry.

Normally, Sister Yun was gentle and kind, smiling at everyone, and so good-natured that she seemed to have no temper. But today, he saw anger and displeasure on her face all day.

That man... is that man's influence on Sister Yun so great?

Yun Sheng breathed rapidly and pursed his lips tightly.

She remembered Xie Zhan had once said she was a money-grubber, and he had often gifted her with gold, silver, and jewelry every now and then, which had truly delighted Yun Sheng. She had already begun to think about escaping, so the more money the better.

Zhi Yunsheng can now make money with her own skills, and she no longer needs Xie Zhan's charity, which is like giving away kittens and puppies.

What exactly did Xie Zhan want to do? Did he think that I would be tempted by his money and go back with him?

"This... so many good things, are they really thrown away?" Agou still found it a little unbelievable.

He didn't want to speak for that bad marquis, he was simply worried about the money. He had never seen so much money in his life.

Yun Sheng also felt the pain. She had always lived a hard life and had sold handkerchiefs she had sewn with needle and thread for money. No one knew better than her how hard it was to make money.

She gritted her teeth and said helplessly, "Since it's an apology, we will accept it with peace of mind."

What I hate is the people, not the money.

There's nothing wrong with silver. There's probably no one in this world who doesn't like silver, right?

Xie Zhan is going crazy, why should she care about him?

Don’t miss it.

_

"I didn't throw it away, I accepted it?" Xie Zhan glanced at Bai Yuanbao indifferently.

Bai Yuanbao closed the door and said cheerfully, "I've accepted it. The guards saw it with their own eyes. Madam Yun is kind-hearted and frugal. How could she really be willing to throw away such a precious silver?"

Xie Zhan tapped his finger bones on the table in a very regular rhythm, and suddenly he chuckled.

"You little money-grubber, are you still unwilling to admit it to me?"

Bai Yuanbao touched his arm and felt a sudden chill. The Marquis's unpredictable temper really frightened him.

This occasional smile made him feel very uncomfortable.

He didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly presented Xie Zhan with the two high-quality gold locks he had found in the afternoon.

Xie Zhan waved his hand and told Bai Yuanbao to leave.

He carefully stroked the patterns on the two longevity locks and drew out his usual short knife.

Under the dim candlelight, Xie Zhan looked serious as he meticulously carved words on the back of the longevity lock, one stroke at a time. The calluses between his fingertips grew thicker and thicker.

Bai Yuanbao's trembling voice suddenly rang out from outside the door: "My Lord...My Lord, Madam Wang just came out of Madam Yun's room, and Wang Wenshu went in carrying the bedding."

Xie Zhan's eyes darkened. He felt a chill at the base of his palm, and then a burning pain brought him back to his senses.

He didn't care at all, without even frowning, and casually tore off a corner of his sleeve and wrapped it tightly around the bleeding palm twice.

Bai Yuanbao pricked up his ears, but heard nothing inside, and his heart immediately jumped.

"Bai Yuanbao, did you say they always slept in separate rooms before?" Xie Zhan's cold voice spread from inside to outside.

He was in a hurry yesterday and didn't have time to carefully check the furnishings in Yun Sheng's room. Only today did he remember that there were few signs of men's life in that room.

"It seems that Ah Sheng's feelings for him are just like this, which can be blown away by the wind."

Bai Yuanbao hesitated for a long time before whispering, "This... This may be because Madam Yun just gave birth and has just finished her confinement. Plus, the young master is still young and can't leave Madam Yun all the time. That's why... That's why they sleep in separate rooms."

His voice became lower and lower, and in the end it was almost gone.

"Really?" Xie Zhan said coldly, gritting his teeth.

Bai Yuanbao lowered his head even lower and no longer dared to respond.

"There's no news about that child again?"

"That kid is really cunning. As long as his subordinates guarantee that he has never left Shu, he won't be able to hide for long."

"Well, send more people."

_

"You...what are you doing?"

Yun Sheng looked at Wang Wenshu who was holding the quilt, his mouth slightly open in surprise.

Wang Wenshu's ears flushed red as he stumbled, "Madam Yun, please don't misunderstand me. Although Marquis Xie knows that A'man is not my biological daughter, he still doesn't know about our fake marriage."

He pursed his lips and said, "Now that he has sent people to tear down the wall, he must be keeping an eye on the clinic. If you and I...you and I sleep in separate rooms, it will probably arouse his suspicion. Since you just came out of confinement after childbirth, there is no reason for you and me to sleep in separate rooms."

"Don't worry, Madam Yun. I'll sleep on the floor tonight and watch over you and A-Man. You don't have to be so anxious and afraid to sleep just because he lives next door and there's no wall between you."

In other people's families, couples sleep together, so Lord Xie would never be so absurd as to break into their bedroom at night.

Yun Sheng lowered her eyes. She understood what Wang Wenshu meant, but Wang Wenshu did not understand Xie Zhan's character.

In the past, she was Xie Qingyuan's child bride. They lived in the same courtyard. Xie Zhan dared to visit her at night without any scruples. What else could he not dare to do?

Besides...what worried her the most was that Yun Sheng was afraid that this would anger Xie Zhan, and he would really draw his sword and kill Wang Wenshu without any hesitation.

Yun Sheng smiled bitterly. She was once Xie Zhan's concubine. Rich families valued rules the most. Even if Xie Zhan despised her, she would probably have to spend the rest of her life guarding him with a quiet mind.

She had experienced Xie Zhan's possessiveness and desire for control more than once.

This was a matter between her and Xie Zhan, and she didn't want to implicate innocent others.

Yun Sheng shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Wang, but I don't want to trouble you anymore. You should go back to your room and sleep."

"What if I say I'm not afraid of being implicated by you? Even if you want me to risk my life?" Wang Wenshu's burning gaze fell on Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng closed her eyes. She could never repay Wang Wenshu’s kindness in the same way.

She turned around and said, "But I would feel guilty. You studied hard for many years, and it wasn't easy for Aunt Wang to raise you alone. I can't continue to hurt you because of my own selfishness."

"I understand." Wang Wenshu's eyes gradually dimmed.

The door was closed and peace returned to the inner room, but Yun Sheng's heart could not calm down.

In the middle of the night, she was woken up by the heat.

Yun Sheng opened her eyes and saw her daughter sleeping soundly inside. Her back was sweaty and a broad, hot chest was pressed tightly against her.

Looking down, I saw a man's arm around Yun Sheng's waist.

She knew almost with her eyes closed, who else could it be but Xie Zhan?

"I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you are still the same as before." Yun Sheng curled his lips and suddenly sneered.

The man's heavy breathing fell into her ears, and she knew that Xie Zhan was awake.
