Chapter 69: Supernatural Stories
When Pu Qiongzhi heard what he said, the curve of her mouth instantly straightened.
If you really don't want to be honest, that's fine. There's no need to make up such a lie to deceive her!
She is not a child who knows nothing about the world. How could he come up with such an excuse?
Nangong Hua saw the change in her expression and instantly knew that he had said the wrong thing.
But what he said was the real truth!
He knew it would be like this! How could he explain something like this?
She wouldn't believe it even if I told her. I should have kept it to myself...
"You said you knew your past and present lives, and then what happened?" Pu Qiongzhi curled the corners of her mouth.
Although she didn't believe it, she still wanted to listen before making a judgment.
Nangong Hua didn't expect that she was still planning to continue listening, but since she had started, he wanted to confess to her.
"That's right. You can also understand it as a dream I had."
"In your previous life, you were the Ninth Prince's concubine, and later became his concubine. Pei Wanqing is the Ninth Prince's principal wife."
Nangong Hua looked a little depressed when he talked about this.
Pu Qiongzhi looked at him with an inexplicable gaze, "What about you?"
"I am the Ninth Prince's staff." Nangong Hua told the truth.
"So, the secret between Pei Wanqing and me is that we both know about our past lives."
It would be fine if only one person came back to life, but two people did the same at the same time.
Pu Qiongzhi felt that what he said was even more bizarre than the storybooks written by Fang Miaozhu.
"You mean to say that she remembers that I shared a husband with her in my previous life, and she's still so upset about it in this new life?"
Pu Qiongzhi felt it was even more absurd when she heard this, "But, I'm already married to you."
"Madam, once bitten by a snake, one becomes afraid of ropes for ten years. Pei Wanqing's fear of you is deeply ingrained in her bones. It didn't happen overnight."
Pu Qiongzhi still didn't believe it, "Even if that's the case, why did you marry me?"
"I..." Nangong Hua felt ashamed and timid.
He put his hands over his eyes, not daring to look at her, "Because, I love Madam Yue."
As a subject, he coveted his lord's wife, and took the initiative after being reborn... This was not a fair thing for him to do.
"Oh, is that so..." Pu Qiongzhi replied nonchalantly, "So you want 800,000 taels from me?"
"As for that 800,000 taels, I was afraid you wouldn't trust me, so I resorted to this desperate measure." Nangong Hua almost bit his tongue.
Pu Qiongzhi propped up her chin with one hand and said, "Since you have me, why don't you consummate the marriage?"
"I..." Nangong Hua blushed when she asked this question.
After a while, he said cautiously, "Because I'm afraid of ruining my wife's life."
"Isn't it too late now?" Pu Qiongzhi pinched her eyebrows and asked back.
"If Madam is interested in me, then everything will be fine. If not, I can still give you freedom."
Pu Qiongzhi never thought that the arrow would come back when she pulled the bow.
Before the wedding, my father repeatedly emphasized that this was a lifelong event and it would be difficult to regret it.
When it comes to her, there is actually a way out.
"You said you wouldn't give up your business for anything."
"He can't give you freedom, but I can."
Nangong Hua still said this.
He wanted to fight for himself and gain a place in his wife's heart.
Pu Qiongzhi listened to him reveal his thoughts in silence.
But at this moment she still felt that Nangong Hua seemed to have gone crazy.
I heard that this disease is very serious and difficult to cure.
But apart from these strange fantasies, he had no other problems.
"Ma'am, do you believe it?" he asked.
Pu Qiongzhi nodded, "I believe it."
In any case, she should not provoke him.
Nangong Hua could see that she was skeptical.
It's hard to believe such things unless you experience them yourself.
Moreover, he knew that his wife was very disgusted with the supernatural...
After working so hard for so long, I finally get home.
Nangong Jiayu and Nangong Yue paced back and forth at the door.
Seeing their carriage, they hurried over to meet them.
"Aunt!" "Sister-in-law!"
"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay..."
Nangong Jiayu looked at Pu Qiongzhi carefully, and burst into tears after making sure that she was fine.
"Yu'er, Auntie is really fine! Auntie promised Yu'er that she would be back soon. Here, I kept my promise!"
Pu Qiongzhi touched his head and comforted him, "Yu Ge'er is a grown-up boy, you can't cry all the time. We have to be strong!"
"Oh, it's good that you're back." Pu Rongda walked out slowly and sighed.
Pu Qiongzhi didn't expect him to be here already, and hurried over to support him, "Father! I'm sorry for making you worry."
"A big tree attracts the wind, it's inevitable." Pu Rongda comforted.
Pu Qiongzhi helped the old man walk inside and said, "Let's go back first. It's windy here."
"On the one hand, our Pu family is wealthy and powerful, and we are envied by others; on the other hand, this is also a man-made disaster!"
"I'll tell you in detail when I get back. For the time being, you stay at the Earl's Mansion!"
Pu Rongda shook his head. "How can a father-in-law live with his daughter and son-in-law?"
"There are not many people in our family, so your coming will make us feel happy!" Nangong Hua took two steps forward and supported him from the other side.
Pu Rongda couldn't persuade the two men and could only follow them inside.
"Grandpa, don't be so formal, we are all family!" Nangong Jiayu said sweetly.
Pu Rongda saw that the little guy was very fond of him. "Okay! I brought you a lot of gifts. Pick one out and see if you like it!"
Nangong Hua recalled the way he used to coax his father, and gave him a look, indicating that he should try harder and coax the old man.
Who knew that this brat Nangong Jiayu wouldn't give him this face at all!
This is his aunt's father, so that means he is his grandfather! Even if his uncle doesn't tell him, he knows what to do.
His maternal grandfather is no longer around, and his aunt loves him, so he is filial to her in the same way!
Nangong Hua saw the little guy turn around and run forward, and complained in his heart that he was still unreliable.
"Father-in-law, I'm sorry to have cost you so much money on this child." He felt a little embarrassed.
Pu Rongda said, "Raising a child doesn't cost money. This child is obedient and a good child!"
"Yes, yes. My father-in-law is right." Nangong Hua was in a good mood at this time.
He glanced at Pu Qiongzhi cautiously, then looked away as if nothing had happened.
But he felt bitter in his heart, not knowing what his wife was thinking at the moment.
Chunjing and Mu Jicui were carried behind.
The two were seriously injured, so Pu Qiongzhi specially arranged a yard for them to recuperate.
Originally, Yan'er had been working hard these past few days, so it was time for her to rest.
But the girl was worried about Chunjing, and cried and asked to stay to take care of Chunjing's injuries personally, so Pu Qiongzhi followed her.
After settling down the accommodations for several people, Pu Qiongzhi returned to her own room.
She sat quietly in the chair for a long time without saying a word.
"Madam, don't worry too much about those things. Lord Di is fair and strict and will give an explanation."
