Chapter 34 Who are the couple?
Things quickly got chaotic outside.
The fire was in the guest room.
In her previous life, the eldest princess used this method to lure everyone here.
The difference is that this fire was started by Xie Changning.
"What did Lord Pei say just now?" She curled her lips into a smile and asked Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi, “…”
The noisy footsteps mixed with the boisterous voices. The outside was becoming more and more chaotic, and soon more and more people would arrive.
If he doesn't leave now, he might not be able to leave.
It was just a pity that he had finally mustered up the courage.
He was only one step away from asking this question.
"Madam Hou, please be careful. I'll take my leave now." It doesn't matter if you miss it this time, there will be next time.
Xie Changning nodded, "Same to Master Pei."
Pei Zhi looked at her intently, then turned and left without looking back.
Xie Changning watched Pei Zhi leave, and only then did she realize that the tips of Pei Zhi's ears were pink.
This is?
Suddenly she laughed.
Lord Pei's reaction time is really too long.
How long have those two been gone? Even at this hour, he's still shy...
After Pei Zhi left, Xie Changning did not rush to leave.
At the banquet, everyone was having a great time.
Only Xu kept looking around. Why hadn't Sister Xie come back yet? Could something have happened?
"Madam, something bad has happened. There is a fire in the guest room." Suddenly, a maid came forward in a hurry. Her voice was so loud that everyone present could hear it.
"What? Sister Xie hasn't come back yet!" Before everyone could react, Xu rushed out like a gust of wind.
The wife of Duke Lu was also shocked, and she quickly arranged for people to put out the fire.
There was a flash of surprise in the eldest princess' eyes. Could something have happened? Why was the time brought forward?
She glanced at Liu's seat and was relieved to see that Liu had not returned yet.
"Madam Hou and Madam Xue haven't come back yet. It's really worrying to wait here. Why don't we go and take a look together?" She stood up first.
Now that she had opened her mouth, what else could Lady Lu say? "The eldest princess is absolutely right. It was my fault for not thinking things through."
Everyone stood up and followed.
Qin was mixed in the crowd, and when she saw that Shen Jingyun had not returned yet, she couldn't help but feel worried.
What's wrong with Jingyun? She's too ignorant. What if someone finds out if she doesn't come back?
She just wanted Jingyun and Song Wenjing to make the matter a fait accompli and force Xie Changning to agree, but she didn't want them to make it known to everyone.
Shen Jingshu was kept in the dark. She had no idea what was going on. Seeing Xie Changning and Shen Jingyun disappear, she muttered softly, "Mother is really something. Where did she take Fourth Sister? We are here for the birthday party. She really doesn't know the seriousness of the matter."
She blamed Xie Changning, but she hated her in her heart. She even couldn't help but think that it would be better if her mother was burned to death.
Today, no matter where she and her grandmother went, they attracted people's attention, and many people even pointed at them. What else could this be for?
This is all my mother's fault.
Soon everyone arrived at the guest room.
Seeing that the fire was only in the guest room at the very edge and that the fire was about to be put out, Lady Lu's heart was finally at ease.
Now that everyone is here, they can’t just leave.
"Fortunately, it was just a false alarm." Someone couldn't help but sigh.
The fire was put out in just a moment.
In order not to disturb the guests, the servants who were fighting the fire retreated one after another, and the guest room returned to its former tranquility.
The wife of the Duke of Lu was just about to take their people away when an unbearable sound reached everyone's ears. They looked in the direction of the sound and their sights fell on one of the guest rooms.
Everyone had different expressions and began to speculate in their hearts.
There are only two people who are not present at the moment, one is the Marquis's wife and the other is Mrs. Xue Shao. Who is in the room?
No one thought of Shen Jingyun. An unmarried girl simply didn't have such courage!
The unmarried girls in Yunying looked confused and had no idea what was going on, just like Chen Jingshu.
Hearing that obscene voice, Qin suddenly clenched the handkerchief in her hand. How dare Xie Changning, a bitch? She was having sex with a wild man in broad daylight.
Although she also wanted to catch the adulterer, it was definitely not in such an occasion.
Do she and her children still want to live as human beings?
Xu stared at the guest room. No way! No way! It must not be Sister Xie in there, but what if it is!
Shen Wenyuan is a bastard, there is no need for Sister Xie to watch over him.
What should I do now?
With so many people present, can she knock them all out or blind them all one by one?
She thought that the key problem was that she couldn't do it!
Among so many people present, almost no one thought of Madam Xue, mainly because the Xue family had a clean and upright family tradition, and Madam Xue and her husband loved each other very much.
Xie Changning is different.
She has been a widow for so many years, so it's inevitable that she is lonely.
This is probably why there is always trouble around a widow.
The wife of the Duke of Lu was very embarrassed. Such a thing happened at her birthday party, and she, as the host, felt ashamed. Now she really didn't know what to do?
The affair is right in front of her, will she arrest him or not?
Catch it! It's offensive.
Don't catch it! It seems that this is not possible either. Everyone craned their necks to look at it, wishing they could grow a pair of X-ray eyes.
She changed her mind and looked at the princess with an embarrassed look, "Princess, this..."
This was exactly what the princess had been waiting for. She sneered, "Someone, come! Break the door open immediately! I want to see who the couple inside are!"
