Chapter 16 Living in the Fog



The next morning, Mrs. Hu was awakened by the pain and itchiness on her face.

She scratched it gently with her fingernails, but the more she scratched, the more it itched.

I got up to look for a mirror and found a leg pressing on me.

A glance at his face from the side revealed disgust.

Born to the same father, the Marquis' wife was also pretty, so how come Rong Qi Wang looked like this!

Looking down, I saw the exposed white belly.

His eyes rolled back.

He was only 31 years old, two years younger than Rong Baichuan, but he looked older.

I recall that a few days ago, I went to the main courtyard to find Qin Nanjing and saw Rong Baichuan practicing sword in the courtyard.

Those strong forearms, the lean waist...

A sudden surge of anger rose in his chest, and he kicked the man off the bed.

"You vicious woman, what are you doing? Are you trying to murder your husband?"

He was tortured in the military camp a few days ago and his face was covered with bruises. After being kicked like that, Rong Qi Wang felt like he was falling apart.

He sat up, felt a tug on his waist, and cried out in pain:

"Hurry up and help me up. Ouch... my waist."

Hu helped the man up reluctantly.

Rong Qiwang looked at Hu's face and asked, "What's wrong with your face?"

Mrs. Hu raised her hand and touched it, then immediately went to the dressing table. The face in the mirror was covered with red spots and scratches, and one of them even had a trace of blood oozing out.

With his eyes wide open at this moment, he looked a little ferocious and scary.

“My face!!!”

The early birds outside were frightened and flew away.

Main courtyard.

Rong Baichuan was awakened by Rong Chaoxi's voice wanting to eat insects.

During this time, he had already heard what the little guy was thinking.

In her previous life, she was a little phoenix, a little goddess in heaven.

How could Rong Baichuan be so worthy and capable that a goddess would marry into his family?

I turned my head to see the beautiful lady sleeping.

It must be the lady’s virtue and ability!

Bend down and give a kiss.

Another bite...

Qin Nanjing was kissed so hard that she couldn't breathe. She struggled to wake up, lightly hit the chest of the person she was on, and said coquettishly:

"What are you doing? Chaoxi is still here."

Rong Baichuan glanced at his daughter on the inside and said, "She's still asleep. Let me kiss her again."

"Alright, alright..." Qin Nanjing stopped him with both hands, saying, "It's getting late, hurry up and go to court."

Rong Baichuan sighed softly, then stood up and went to the court.

It was bright daylight.

Qin called the woman from yesterday.

The woman's name was Xianghe. She had been given a good wash and dressing today, and put on a clean goose yellow dress. Her hair was also carefully styled, and she looked a little more beautiful than yesterday.

At this moment, she is standing in the hall, looking like a weak willow in the wind, which makes me feel pity for her.

"Madam, please accept me as your servant. I really have nowhere else to go."

As soon as Qin Nanjing stepped into the house, Xiang He immediately prostrated herself at her feet and cried:

"My parents favored my younger brother and wanted to sell me to a brothel. That day, I wanted to end my life. Fortunately, the general showed mercy. In panic, I accidentally pushed the general. I really didn't mean to hurt him."

"I originally wanted to come and atone for my sins early, but my parents locked me up at home and prevented me from leaving. I tried many ways and finally escaped. I beg Madam to give me a chance to atone for my sins."

Before she even started questioning, she had already filled in all the gaps from yesterday.

Qin Nanjing walked to the main seat and sat down, saying softly:

"Get up. We in the Annan Marquisate value leniency and kindness. Since it was an unintentional mistake, we will not pursue it. You don't need to atone for your sin. Go back."

"Madam, please keep me here," Xiang He said sadly. "I have no place to go. If I go back, I'll either be sold to a brothel or beaten to death by my father. I am willing to work like a slave for you and the general. Please have mercy on me."

She kowtowed heavily.

"Even if it was unintentional, you still hurt the general." Yan Zhu said indignantly, "If you have nowhere to go, you can always go to other mansions to make a living. Our mansion is not a charity. I have seen people repaying favors, but this is the first time I have seen people repaying grievances."

She glared at Xianghe fiercely, wishing she could poke a hole in her.

If you want to get close to the general, no way!

"Sister-in-law, just keep her. She's a poor child."

At this time, Hu came over.

"Aren't there a few servants in your yard who got into trouble and were sent away? It's a good opportunity for her to stay and be a maid."

"Madam, I can do any job. Please keep me." Xiang He begged again.

"But I already have enough people in my yard, and I don't need so many people sweeping the ground."

Qin Nanjing looked troubled, thought for a moment, and said:

"How about we arrange to go to Qinglian's courtyard?"

Hu was stunned, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

"There's no shortage of people in my yard."

This person was sent to annoy you. How can he annoy you if he is in my place?

Qin Nanjing looked at Xiang He with regret, "There's no shortage of servants at home..."

Before she could finish her words, Mrs. Hu quickly interrupted, "Hasn't the training room just received a new batch of weapons? I see the maids over there are having a hard time, so send them there."

When Rong Baichuan is at home, he spends a quarter of his time in the practice room.

What a wonderful place to visit.

The most vulnerable place is where you can achieve success.

As long as Rong Baichuan did something to let Qin Nanjing down, he would be kicked out of the house regardless of whether he did it intentionally or not.

The old man naturally would not let the position of the crown prince fall into the hands of that fool Rong Yubai.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Hu couldn't help but smile.

Qin Nanjing glanced at her, lowered his eyes and sneered, then agreed.

"My brother and sister have always been in charge of the servants in this household. You decide."
