Chapter 53 How could he bear to let her go after disturbing her?
"Brother hit Youran?" Shen Yunshu was shocked. "How could that happen?"
He is a man of great talent and elegance, so how could he hit a woman?
"Is there some misunderstanding?"
"It's true," Dan Ruo explained incoherently. "During the day, the First Madam summoned the Young Lady to Begonia Garden, saying she wanted to take a concubine for the Master. The Young Lady was furious, and tonight she told me and Qinghe to pack our bags and prepare to return to the Shen Residence tomorrow. Later, when the Master returned from his bath, he slammed the bedroom door with a deafening bang. Soon after, the maids heard the Young Lady crying..."
As early as when the eldest lady brought the cousin girl from the Meng family into the mansion, Shen Yunshu was worried that she was planning to take a concubine for Pei Huaijin. Today, this has been said out in the open. Given the temper of the third sister, she is sure to make a fuss.
But isn't the eldest brother usually very tolerant towards the third sister? Besides, taking a concubine is something that is difficult to accept in itself, so he should have coaxed the third sister. Why didn't he just not coax her, but even went so far as to hit her?
At this moment, Shen Yunshu was three parts skeptical and seven parts convinced. She asked Danruo to wait in the hall for a while and then went back to her room to change clothes.
Since it concerns her third sister, she has to go and take a look no matter what.
Pei Huaian was still on the bed, helping her warm the quilt. When he saw her come back, he not only did not get up from the bed, but opened the cabinet to change clothes, then sat up and asked, "You want to go out?"
"Well, something happened with Youran and Big Brother. I'm going to take a look."
"What happened?"
"We had a fight, and it could be something more serious..." Although she still didn't believe that her well-mannered elder brother would hit anyone, Danruo was not a person who would lie.
Pei Huaian got off the bed and put on his clothes: "I'll go with you."
"It's snowing outside, and you're injured. Go back to bed and lie down..."
"It's okay."
Pei Huaian insisted on accompanying her. Shen Yunshu couldn't persuade him, so she helped him pick out a thick cloak and wrapped him tightly. Then the two of them braved the snow and left Ciyouyuan.
When they arrived at Yunzhiyuan, Pei Huaian asked about the reason for their quarrel, and Danruo told him again.
Knowing that it was because his aunt wanted to take a concubine for his eldest brother, Pei Huaian used his increasingly sharp mind to think about it and guessed his aunt's true intention.
"I'm afraid that my aunt doesn't want my cousin to be my eldest brother's concubine. She wants to use this matter to force Youran to leave my eldest brother so that my cousin can become his principal wife..."
Shen Yunshu also thought of this: Although the Meng family's daughter's family background is not as good as Youran's, it is not a small family. In addition, the eldest lady likes her very much, so how could she bear to let her be a concubine?
Moreover, the reason why the eldest lady proposed taking a concubine at this time was simply because she knew that the person kidnapped by the bandits was Youran. She already disliked Youran and didn't want an "uninnocent" daughter-in-law.
If the third sister didn't see through this and insisted on divorcing Pei Huaijin, she would have really played into the eldest lady's hands.

Shen Youran's voice, which had just recovered, became hoarse again.
Pei Huaijin felt sorry for her, so he stopped for a moment, picked her up and sat her up, holding her in his arms, patting her back gently, and letting her rest.
Shen Youran was sweating a lot. She hugged his neck, leaned on his shoulder, and panted with her mouth slightly open.
The soul that was knocked away slowly returned to its body, and Shen Youran's muddled mind became somewhat clearer at this time. Looking at his Adam's apple that kept sliding because of his restraint, she wondered: It was clearly her who was exerting the effort, so why didn't he look tired, but she was the one who was exhausted and out of breath?
But even though this was tiring, it was also truly joyful. No wonder she often read stories about how a single moment of springtime was worth a thousand gold, how the night was short and the sun rose high, and how they were so infatuated that they lost track of the world...
Pei Huaijin couldn't bear it any longer, so he moved a little and stroked the sweaty person in his arms: "Have you rested well?"
Shen Youran didn't mind, a soft moan escaped from between her lips and teeth, and she bit his shoulder in embarrassment: "Not yet, tell me to rest for a while."
"If you can't stand it, I think it's because you don't exercise enough every day. When I come back from Suizhou, you can do morning exercises with me every morning..."
Shen Youran snorted: “If you ask me to get up early, I will stay at my parents’ house and not come back.”
Yes, for someone as sleepy as she is, it would be difficult for her to get up early.
"Well, since I can't get up early for morning exercises, I'll just practice a little longer in the evening..."
What does it mean to practice a little longer at night?
It was bad enough that they asked her to recite at night, but now they want her to exercise in her room late at night?
Shen Youran was about to scold him for being inhuman, but he suddenly pushed her down. Suddenly, she realized what kind of exercise he was talking about at night...

Outside the dormitory, Qinghe finally waited until Danruo came back with reinforcements.
"Qinghe, what's going on in there?" Danruo asked her worriedly.
"The young lady's voice was hoarse from crying at that time, but now she is silent. I heard the young master talking, and he should be comforting the young master, but he beat the young lady for a long time, and the young lady is still sobbing occasionally..."
Pei Huaian was shocked when he heard this: "Did Big Brother really beat someone up?" And did he beat him for a long time?
Qinghe nodded vigorously.
The couple looked at each other, and Shen Yunshu said to Qinghe, "Knock on the door and let them know we're here."
Qing He, who had been unable to contain herself any longer, obeyed and slammed the partition door. "Sir, Madam, the Seventh Young Master and the Seventh Young Madam are here."
The sound reached the room, startling the two of them.
Why are they here at this hour?
Shen Youran's originally soft body tensed up nervously, and she asked Pei Huaijin in a low voice, "What should I do?"
The tight entanglement made Pei Huaijin sigh, then he steadied his voice and said to the outside: "We have rested. If there is anything, we can talk tomorrow."
Unexpectedly, the two men were already waiting at the door of the dormitory: "Brother, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you..."
It was Pei Huaian's voice, followed by Shen Yunshu's voice: "You Ran, are you asleep?"
The familiar scene reminded Pei Huaijin of the night of their wedding. When the wedding was halfway through, they were the ones who came running over and knocked on the door.
That time was understandable, but this time...
The person in his arms had already straightened up and was holding onto his shoulders to get up.
But the marriage had not been completed yet, so how could he bear to let her go?
The soft body was pushed back by him just half an inch away.
Caught off guard, Shen Youran sat down solidly, instinctively raised her head, and the moment she opened her mouth to call out, she was blocked by his lips and tongue...
The person outside the door heard no response and didn't know what to do.
Pei Huaian was the first to lose his temper and knocked on the door again: "Brother, brother..."
Still no one in the room answered him.
Very unusual.
"Brother, please open the door. I really have something important to tell you."
As the knocks on the door became more and more urgent, the curtains shook more and more violently.
The curtains were replaced with plum blossom curtains a few days ago. The flowers on the curtains swayed gracefully in the fierce wind and rain, and bloomed to their fullest the moment the wind and rain stopped...
Shen Youran's back felt like a bolt of lightning, and her body trembled and bloomed along with the plum blossoms. Pei Huaijin rolled her tongue and swallowed all her sounds.
"Brother, if you don't come out, I will, I will..."
Pei Huaijin hugged the person in his arms tightly, reached out to grab the thin rope beside the bedpost and pulled it.
The clear sound of bells suddenly rang outside the door.
The knocking on the door stopped abruptly.
Pei Huaijin exhaled heavily and asked the person outside the door in a cold voice: "What is it that you have to tell me now?"
At this moment, the two people outside the door were the ones who had not responded yet.
Pei Huaian and Shen Yunshu, Dan Ruo and Qing He, all froze in silence the moment the bell rang.
The air was stagnant and the four of them looked at each other.
They all knew what the sound of the bell meant.
There was also a thin rope beside Shen Yunshu's bed, which went around the bedpost and extended to the side room. A bell was tied at the end.
But she has never used it yet.
Therefore, there was no unpleasantness between the third sister and the eldest brother, but instead they were very happy.
The eldest brother didn't hit anyone, and the third sister didn't cry...
It was a misunderstanding between two ignorant little maids.
After Shen Yunshu and Pei Huaian looked at each other, their gazes turned to the two little maids.
Dan Ruo and Qing He also realized at this moment: Tonight, it seems that the eldest young lady and her husband really consummated their marriage...
What should I do?
They had good intentions but ended up doing something bad by calling others to interrupt their master's wedding.
Dan Ruo was so frightened that her voice trembled. She apologized to Pei Huaian and Shen Yunshu: "I, your servant is guilty..."
Pei Huaian pointed at her and gritted his teeth: "What can I say to you? You guys caused this mess, so you should clean it up yourself." Then he shouted into the room, "Brother, it's nothing, we'll go back first."
Then he took Shen Yunshu's hand and said, "My dear, we can't stay here for long!"
Shen Yunshu was so embarrassed at this time that her whole face turned red. She didn't care about her manners and let Pei Huaian pull her away quickly.
Pei Huaijin in the room didn't hear Pei Huaian's answer for a long time, so he asked again, "Why aren't you talking?" Didn't he say there was something important just now and he was so anxious that he wanted to rush in, so why was he silent now?
"Lang, Lang Jun," Dan Ruo's voice was thin and trembling, as if it was squeezed out from her throat, and it came tremblingly, "Seventh Young Master and Seventh Young Master's wife... have already gone back."
"Ha!" Pei Huaijin almost laughed out of anger.
So Xiaoqi and his wife stayed up late at night and braved the wind and snow to come to Yunzhiyuan just to interrupt their wedding consummation?
The person in his arms had become as soft as a pool of spring water. She lay in his arms, breathing weakly, her body still trembling.
Since the person who disturbed them outside the door had left, Pei Huaijin did not separate from her immediately. He hugged her, leaned against the bed, and wiped the sweat from her face and the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Danruo and Qinghe quickly brought in two basins of hot water.
Qinghe was so frightened that she didn't dare to look around. Danruo bravely took a peek into the curtain.
The winter curtains were thicker, and only a vague outline could be seen.
The two of them hugged each other face to face, their figures merging into one on the tent.
Danruo felt a flush on her face and quickly looked away. After putting down the basin and towel, she was about to go out with Qinghe.
"Wait a moment."
The man in the tent called them.
Danruo thought that her husband was going to punish them. Her knees weakened and she was about to kneel down to admit her fault, but she heard her husband's slightly hoarse voice, but his tone was quite calm: "Ask the kitchen to boil some more hot water and send it to the bathroom..."
Both he and Shen Youran were sweaty, especially Shen Youran, who was as wet as a fish just pulled out of the water.
It is obviously not enough to just wipe it with the water in the basin. You will feel much more refreshed if you take a shower later.
The two maids received their instructions and left. Pei Huaijin waited until the person in his arms finally calmed down before slowly withdrawing and placing her on the inside of the bed, on the relatively dry bedding. He then put on some clothes, went downstairs to bring water, and began to wipe her carefully...
Shen Youran wanted to do it herself, but all her strength was gone. She felt lazy and didn't want to move. She could only endure the shame and let him play with her.
After wiping her, he pulled the quilt over her, then wiped himself clean, lifted the quilt and returned to her side, reaching out to pull her into his arms.
Shen Youran's temples were also wet, and her whole body was sticky. She didn't want to stick to him anymore, so she turned over and faced him: "I haven't showered yet, I don't want to hug..."
He kissed her wet cheek: "It was a bit rushed just now, did you enjoy it?"
Shen Youran was too embarrassed to admit that she had not only enjoyed herself but also thoroughly enjoyed herself. How could she say such words? So she just mumbled, "Well, it's okay..."
"Oh? That means you haven't had enough fun yet." A voice full of desire, along with a burning breath, swirled into her ears, "Since we can only take a bath later, why not..."
He hugged her from behind, grabbed her waist with his big hands and lifted her up, and then he found the right spot.
The curtains fluttered again without wind.
