What happened to our plan to go out and kill zombies?
Why are you carrying a table back?
And what's reflecting off that table... oil, right?
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Shang Tian glanced at him indifferently and said, "We'll talk about it when we get home."
The scholar carried the table, helped Peng San, and entered the Shang family home.
Shang Tian carried Su Qian into the room and settled her in before saying to the scholar who had been holding up the table, "Put the table down first."
The scholar then realized what was happening, put down the table, and nudged Peng San, saying, "Master."
Peng San looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong?"
The scholar took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying, "This isn't our home!"
Pay attention to your appearance, okay?
"Oh, okay." Peng San straightened up, looked at Shang Tian, and asked, "What do we do now?"
Shang Tian sighed and said, "Mosquito, take them out to eat. From now on, they'll be following you."
The mosquito nodded and said, "I understand."
The scholar helped Peng San back to the Peng residence, where they saw Madam Lu standing at the second gate, waiting for him.
Peng San frowned slightly. "Is something the matter?"
"Husband..." Madam Lu called out softly, looking at Peng San with hopeful eyes.
For some reason, the maidservants arranged for them to go to the corner courtyard today.
That Kakuin is not a good place; it's located near the outside.
Hearing her call him "husband," Peng San felt a surge of irritation, and the image of her rushing towards Wang Da's ashes that day flashed through his mind.
“From now on, you don’t need to call me that anymore.” Peng San didn’t even bother competing for favor with a dead man.
If we were to fight... I'm afraid we'd lose even more miserably.
Madam Lu was greatly alarmed; was she about to fall out of favor?
Without Peng San's protection, how could she survive in this backyard?
Will her Heng'er ever grow up?
Seeing Lu's pale face, Peng San still felt a pang of pity and said, "If you're willing, you can stay. No one will dare to mistreat you in the slightest." After speaking, he strode into the inner courtyard and went back to his room.
Madam Lu felt her hands and feet were ice cold. How could an unfavored woman in the inner courtyard have a good life?
Even if Peng San speaks nicely now, as time goes by... will he still remember him?
Lu gritted her teeth and headed straight for Peng San's bedroom.
The servants who remained in the mansion were all extremely loyal to Peng San. Although they looked down on Madam Lu, they knew she was Peng San's darling and would never stop her in the slightest.
And so, Madam Lu quietly arrived at Peng San's bedside. Peng San heard footsteps, looked up at her, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Didn't she not want to see him?
Madam Lu took a deep breath, walked stiffly to Peng San's side and sat down, saying, "This concubine will serve you, sir."
Looking at her like this, Peng San felt heartbroken and angry at the same time. "You just...you just..." Don't you know how to take care of yourself?
No matter how important a child is, can she be more important than herself?
Madam Lu lowered her head and said, "This is all I should do." Her hand reached towards Peng San's sash.
Peng San grabbed her hand, his eyes filled with anger, "I don't lack women, you can go back to your own courtyard."
What did she take him for?
If he wanted a woman, what kind wouldn't he have?
He just... just wanted to spend the rest of his life with her.
That's all...
Seeing Lu's increasingly stiff body, Peng San couldn't help but feel pity for her, and his anger disappeared without him realizing it. "You are free now. If you don't want to, you can leave."
Madam Lu's eyes widened as she looked at Peng San, "Where could she possibly go now?"
free?
In such a world, where could a weak woman like her find freedom?
