Chapter 50 On Fire



But Mrs. Mo was even more terrified. She had already woken up, but when she saw the person lying on the bed, he was only breathing his last breath away from being scared to death.

It's that big fool! How could it be him? This is over!

A streak of bright red on the plain white bed sheet stung her eyes. She didn't expect that after all her efforts to hook up with Chu Younan, she spent her first night with the most despicable fool.

After the wedding, Chu Younan had not been very polite to her. If he knew about this, she would be afraid that her life would be in danger.

She had heard and seen the methods used to deal with women who committed adultery.

There was a person in the general's mansion who was caught having sex with the palace doctor. No one outside knew about it, and even not many people in the mansion knew about it.

But Mo Qingying was still young at that time, so she was curious about what those people were doing with the concubine, so she followed them to a remote courtyard in the mansion.

The whole process was terrifying to watch. Mo Qingying was completely frightened at the time. She only remembered that there was not a single piece of good flesh on the concubine's body in the end.

Too scary! That was just the General's Mansion, this is the Prince Su's Mansion! Thinking of this, whether Mo and Chu Younan would consummate their marriage became a digression. What she had to do now was to let this fool leave, keep this matter a secret, and save her life.

As it was a matter of life and death, Mrs. Mo hastily put on her clothes, got downstairs, opened a crack in the window and looked out. She saw Su Bei sitting on a stone bench in the yard, dozing off with his head supported by one hand.

Mrs. Mo remembered how Nanny Gui had tricked him with meat buns, and she immediately came up with a plan.

She threw the scattered clothes on the bed, lowered the curtains on the bed, opened the door a crack, and called softly, "Abei! Abei!"

Su Bei hadn't fallen asleep to begin with. How could she sleep peacefully on such a frightening night? She was worried all the time that Chu Younan would run out again. She was also concerned about Mrs. Mo in the house. She sat on the stone bench for a long time and her stomach began to ache.

So when Madam Mo called out, she immediately opened her eyes and ran over, asking, "Princess, are you feeling better?"

Madam Mo did not answer, but just said: "I am hungry, go find something to eat, the sooner the better!"

Su Bei was wondering in his heart, how could Mrs. Mo be so calm after having an affair with someone? And now, right under Chu Younan's nose, how could she still have the heart to eat?

But she saw that Mrs. Mo's clothes were intact, the curtains on the bed were drawn, and the floor was clean and empty, so she began to doubt whether she had seen things just now.

So she quickly agreed and went to the small kitchen.

It was naturally the middle of the night and the stove was cold. She lit a fire, found a few eggs, and made two poached eggs for Mrs. Mo before bringing them over.

Before she even reached the door, Madam Mo flashed out and took the food tray from her hand, "Just give it to me, we'll go back after I finish eating!"

Su Bei was a little suspicious, but he had no real evidence, so he had to continue waiting outside.

Inside the room, Mrs. Mo brought the fried eggs to the back window, then placed the bowl on the windowsill outside. She then found a handkerchief to cover her face, lifted the bed curtain, and patted Lu Jiu on the shoulder.

"Get up! Get up quickly!" Mrs. Mo shouted in a low voice.

Lu Jiu opened his eyes dazedly, turned around and saw the man covered with a scarf, grinned and smiled, "What are you doing?"

Although Lu Jiu was not ugly, the more Mrs. Mo looked at him, the more annoyed she felt. However, she still suppressed her unhappiness and said gently, "Get up! There's something delicious!"

"Really?!" Lu Jiu jumped up all of a sudden, jumping for joy like a child, "Where? Where?"

Madam Mo quickly turned her head away from him and said, "Put on your clothes and follow me. Remember not to make any noise. Hurry up!"

"Hey!" Lu Jiu grinned like a three-year-old child.

Mrs. Mo quickly pulled back the bed curtains and waited for Lu Jiu to come out. Then she pointed to the rear window and said, "Over there."

"Okay, okay!" Lu Jiu took big strides and ran over. As soon as he saw the bowl of fried eggs, he went to take it.

Mo quickly reached out to stop him and said, "Wait a minute!"

"What's the matter?" When Lu Jiu saw that he was not allowed to eat, he pouted and was about to cry.

Mrs. Mo hurriedly said, "You can't eat here, climb out the window and eat outside!"

Climbing through the window was no big deal for Lu Jiu. He grinned and jumped out of the window, then picked up the bowl and asked, "How about this?"

Madam Mo said mysteriously, "Stay away! If others find out, I'll punish you again!"

"Who punished me?" Lu Jiu scooped out an egg and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing as he spoke.

"Your Highness!" Mrs. Mo was a little anxious. If she continued to pester him like this, how long would she be able to drive him away?

Lu Jiu chuckled, "The prince is very kind to me. He told me to eat as much as I can. Don't be afraid!"

As he spoke, he picked up another egg, ate it in a few bites, and then gulped down the soup.

Mrs. Mo became even more anxious and hurriedly said, "Go home after you're full! Remember, don't tell anyone about what happened tonight!"

"Why?" Lu Jiu asked, tilting his head.

Mo frowned and said quickly, "This is what the prince ordered!"

She originally wanted to bring up Chu Younan to scare Lu Jiu, but she didn't expect that this was too effective. When Lu Jiu heard that it was the prince's order, he turned around and ran away without even saying a word.

Mrs. Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the candle, which was only about the length of a finger left, and hurried to the bed, pulling off the sheet with force.

She didn't care about that anymore, she had to destroy it! Without thinking, she took the candle, lit a corner of the bed sheet, and then threw the burning bed sheet on the ground.

Now, everything is ruined. She is still the high and mighty Princess Su, the innocent Princess Su.

Next time, she would have to close the doors and windows before drugging Chu Younan. Then, while he was unconscious, she would cut his finger and fake a bloodshot, and everything would be over.

Su Bei, who was waiting outside, could no longer sit still. Her stomach was aching so much that cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She had no choice but to squat on the ground and hold her stomach.

It hurts so much! It's all because of these two people. Is it so difficult to have a good marriage? They made her stay here in the middle of the night, anxiously waiting!

She was complaining when she saw the room where Mrs. Mo was suddenly lit up.

Oh no, is there a fire? Su Bei ran over and saw that Mrs. Mo was burning something. Not only that thing was burning, but even the bed curtains were on fire.

"Princess!" Su Bei exclaimed hurriedly.

Mrs. Mo was waiting for the fire to get bigger before calling for help, but she forgot that the fire was most obvious at night. She stood up from her chair and said in horror, "Oh! It's on fire! Why is it on fire?"

Su Bei hurried over and pulled her out, shouting as he ran: "Fire! Fire!"

In the quiet night, this shout was particularly eye-catching. When the two ran to the yard, Guizi ran out in his middle clothes, "What's going on? Where is the fire?"

Looking at the fire that had grown bigger, Madam Mo couldn't help but smile and said, "That room! That's the one!"
