Chapter 10 She doesn't want him anymore?

"He really has forgotten his mother after getting a wife. Such a good thing was given to that vixen!"

After seeing Cui off, Xu returned and looked at the wild cherries on the table and the various treasures in the wooden box. The anger she had been suppressing finally erupted, but she felt sorry for her son. She gritted her teeth and cursed Luo Fu, "That little bitch is just a little bit pretty because of her coquettish appearance. She really thinks she is so precious. My son is so handsome and talented, and he treats her so well, but she betrays him!"

She sneered, clapped her hands, and said to Pei Yu and Zhou, "Listen, a woman betraying a man! It's only a matter of time before something like this happens. It's simply going against the will of heaven! This vixen will be struck by lightning sooner or later!"

Zhou's eyes scanned the contents of the box, and she soothed him, "Luckily, my wife is a sensible person and has chosen Second Uncle. The eldest daughter of the Luo family is much better than the second daughter. This can be considered a blessing in disguise for Second Uncle."

Mrs. Xu said, "That being said, you all know the second son's temper. I'm not afraid he won't listen to me, but he's definitely moved by that vixen. Now that she's betrayed him, I'm afraid he'll be upset. Oh, it's all my fault. Why did I push him to see such a thing in the first place?"

She was just feeling distressed when she saw Pei Yu stealthily taking a silver comb from the box and putting it in her pocket. He immediately grabbed her, took the thing out of her hand and put it back, scolding her, "You are so short-sighted and impatient! Can't you wait until your second brother sees it first?

He is not a confused man like your elder brother. There are fewer things involved here. He is not suspicious of Love's seductiveness first, but us!

If he thinks we're the ones causing this, he'll be even more obsessed with that foxy girl and will go find her no matter what. If things get out of hand, it could cause a huge commotion and make the eldest daughter of the Luo family feel resentful, and even ruin this good marriage. That would be a huge loss for us!"

Pei Yu retracted his hand angrily: "Okay, okay, I won't take it."

Xu looked at Zhou and said, "Go and call Zhirou."

Only then did Zhou take her eyes off the box and hurried out to call for help.

Shen Zhirou was just outside the courtyard, and Zhou ran into her as soon as she went out.

When Shen Zhirou saw her come out, she hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law, what is the wife of the Luo Mansion doing here?"

Zhou took her things without hesitation and said, "It's a marriage exchange. The second Miss Luo is going to enter the palace, so the eldest Miss Luo will marry here instead."

What?

Shen Zhirou's heart was instantly filled with ecstasy.

Second Miss Luo is not getting married!

What she had always imagined actually came true!

Then... then from now on, she will be the most important person in my cousin's heart!

What she longed for most was to be promoted to a concubine, to have her cousin come to her courtyard openly, to have sex with him, and then to get pregnant...

Shen Zhirou almost laughed out loud.

Zhou pulled her aside and said, "I know you're happy, but don't show it too much. Your mother-in-law is calling you."

Shen Zhirou quickly suppressed her expression and followed Zhou in.

"Aunt, are you looking for me?"

Mrs. Xu didn't say much to Chen Zhirou. She pointed to the mountain cherry blossoms and wooden box on the table and said, "These are returned by my in-laws. Take them back to the west courtyard carefully. Remember not to leave anything behind."

Shen Zhirou quickly responded: "Don't worry, aunt."

She walked over and picked up the wooden box first, then picked up the spring bottle and placed it on the wooden box, carefully protecting it as she left.

Xu added, "If Ji'er comes back, ask him to come to my yard first."

Shen Zhirou said: "Yes."

She suppressed her inner ecstasy, protected the things and returned to the west courtyard, without letting the maids or servants touch them.

They were placed one by one on the table in Pei Ji's bedroom.

Finally, he stared at the mountain cherry for a long time.

It was already late at night when Pei Ji returned.

He strode back to the west courtyard and sat at the door, waiting for Shen Zhirou to come over quickly.

Without waiting for her to speak, Pei Ji asked, "Has Fu'er's sachet arrived?"

Shen Zhirou's face froze.

He returned home at midnight.

But it was that person who was asked.

I guess he was thinking of her when he was working on a case outside.

But what about her?

She actually disliked him.

Chen Zhirou's heart was filled with joy, but it turned into heartache and jealousy. She forced a smile and said, "It was delivered, but it's not a sachet, just a letter and some..."

"Fu'er sent me a letter?" She hesitated and didn't finish her words. Pei Ji didn't care. There was a smile and expectation in his eyes. "Where did you put it?"

Shen Zhirou felt even more uncomfortable.

She secretly read the letter, which was full of resolute words.

To her, it was agreeable.

But to my cousin...

He will definitely be sad.

"Put it in the drawer of your bedroom table." Chen Zhirou stopped Pei Ji who was about to enter the bedroom. When he turned around to look at her, she hesitated and said, "Cousin, the mistress of the Luo Mansion is here today. My aunt told you to go to her courtyard when you come back. She has something to tell you."

Pei Ji's mind was now filled with Luo Fu's letter. He waved her away and said, "I understand. I'll be there after I finish reading Fu'er's letter."

He strode towards the bedroom.

The candlelight was bright, and the bedroom was in full view.

The first thing Pei Ji saw was the mountain cherry blossoms in the spring vase.

Under the soft candlelight, the pink complexion reveals another kind of beauty.

Pei Ji paused, and he walked over slowly, his brows furrowed little by little.

Next to the mountain cherry blossoms is a slender sandalwood box.

He picked it up and opened it, and inside was the Ice Peony Hairpin.

In addition to these two items, all the other items were gifts he carefully selected for Jiaojiaoer.

What this means is self-evident.

Pei Ji's face turned pale. He slowly opened the drawer, and inside was a wooden box envelope with a carved carp pattern.

He took it out, opened it, and pulled out the letter inside.

Just a few words.

Heartless and loveless.

The beloved girl in his heart asked him not to bother her anymore. She didn't want him anymore and was going to enter the palace?
