Chapter 105: Did she come to bully you again?
"Qing Ning, what happened before was all my fault. I was jealous and I didn't care about sisterly love. It was all my fault!"
Every time Shen Ruoying said something, she slapped herself.
Very hard.
After just a few strokes, her cheeks began to swell.
Banxia frowned and said, "The last time the Second Young Master's wife knelt down, she wanted to use the aborted child to frame our wife. What are they going to do this time?"
There was a flash of resentment in Shen Ruoying’s eyes.
Aunt Li beside her immediately glared at Banxia, "Banxia, you little bitch, how can a servant like you have the right to speak here?"
Banxia: "Aren't you also a servant? I am defending my master, but your master is about to smack himself into a pig's head, why are you pretending to be dead?"
"Oh, I see. You guys are planning to use some torture on me today, right?"
"You!" Aunt Li was so angry.
This little bitch Banxia never dared to talk to me like this when she was in Marquis Guangping’s Mansion!
Now that he has come to Songtao Pavilion, he has become crazy too?
Gu Qingning picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Banxia, don't say that. Ruoying seems to really know that she is wrong, and it's not a self-torture tactic."
Banxia: "Master is right!"
Shen Ruoying raised her head and looked at Gu Qingning expectantly.
"You are my sister-in-law and my cousin. We are a family. As I said before, since we have both entered the Duke's Mansion, we sisters should support each other."
"Yes, I did say that," Gu Qingning looked at her, "I just don't understand one thing, why didn't you come to me before and kowtow to me to admit your mistake, but you came here immediately after cousin Yanran was eliminated?"
Shen Ruoying bit the corner of her lip, suddenly knelt down and started coughing loudly.
Aunt Li quickly supported her and looked at Gu Qingning pleadingly.
"Madam, cousin, our young lady knows she is wrong, and she is not in good health. You should calm down now about what happened before, right? You should forgive her when you can. How can you be so cruel?"
Gu Qingning laughed after hearing this, "I haven't done anything yet, but you guys are coming to my house and being aggressive. Do you think you will be satisfied only if I really do something to retaliate?"
Aunt Li choked.
Shen Ruoying was also trembling all over… She was not scared, but angry.
Who could have thought that Gu Qingning would not give in to any persuasion?
Just when Shen Ruoying couldn't bear it any longer, she suddenly heard someone outside respectfully paying respects to the young master, and she immediately came up with a plan.
He knelt on his knees, staggered a few steps, and hobbled to Gu Qingning's feet.
"Qing Ning, no matter what, it's all my fault. I originally thought that Yan Ran would be able to enter the palace and gain favor, and the Duke and his men would treat me better, but now I'm really worried that they will ask Hang Zhi to divorce me. For the sake of our sisterhood, you can't add insult to injury!"
She had already lost a lot of weight, and after crying bitterly, she became even more tearful, with a hint of stubbornness in her grievance.
Anyone with a heart of stone would be moved to tears after seeing this.
Gu Qingning remained calm, as she also heard the servants outside paying their respects to the young master.
Not surprisingly, Shen Ruoying's "performance" was actually for the young master Lu Jingyu.
Gu Qingning went along with it and pretended not to know.
She wanted to see if Lu Jingyu would show sympathy to a woman like her. After all, Shen Ruoying looked really pitiful now.
When Lu Jingyu stepped in, he saw Gu Qingning sitting there with a frown, and Shen Ruoying kneeling at her feet.
He frowned, "What are you doing?"
Shen Ruoying seemed to have just realized that Lu Jingyu was here, and quickly asked Aunt Li to help her up. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Ah, young master, you are back. Actually, it's nothing. I was just chatting with my sister-in-law. Don't get me wrong."
Who would end up kneeling down at the feet while chatting?
This feeling of taking a step back and trying to cover up something is actually a step forward, deliberately trying to deceive Gu Qingning.
Implying that she is a bully.
Not to mention, Shen Ruoying deliberately exposed her slightly swollen cheeks for Lu Jingyu to see.
Lu Jingyu didn't look at her, but looked at Gu Qingning in confusion.
Gu Qingning said calmly: "She's right, we were just chatting."
"Then you guys continue chatting."
Although Lu Jingyu usually likes to spend time with his wife, it is not very convenient now that there are outsiders, especially female relatives, around.
As for whether the two women were confronting each other...after he made sure that Gu Qingning had not suffered any loss, he turned around and walked out.
He didn't even look at Shen Ruoying once.
Shen Ruoying stood there in a daze. Although she did not expect the young master to speak for her.
But it would be enough to plant a thorn in his heart and make him think that Gu Qingning is a domineering person.
As a result, nothing happened?
Didn’t you see how she was beaten?
Gu Qingning looked at Shen Ruoying's doubtful look on her face and asked kindly, "Ruoying, do you want to talk about something else?"
Shen Ruoying: "The young master has always been so cold, I'm sorry for wronging you."
Gu Qingning smiled. This person actually sympathized with her?
However, she did not want to explain for her, but just said ambiguously:
"Not bad. By the way, if you are okay, go back to the yard and rest. I still have to look at the account books. After all, I have to manage the household, and it is very tiring every day."
Shen Ruoying: “…”
Even if Shen Ruoying was very scheming, she couldn't find any reason to stay any longer at this moment.
She had no choice but to leave in disgrace with Aunt Li, with her slightly swollen face.
But she was too unwilling to give up. When she looked up, she saw Lu Hangzhi, accompanied by Bi Yue, walking in from outside.
Shen Ruoying came up with a plan, covering her slightly swollen face, and when she saw Lu Hangzhi, her eyes darkened and she turned around to leave.
Seeing her like this, how could Lu Hangzhi just ignore her?
I immediately chased after him and asked a few questions.

Meanwhile, in Songtao Pavilion, Gu Qingning brought some ginseng soup to Lu Jingyu:
"I had someone check today and found that there was nothing unusual with Butler Lu. He probably didn't know that he was poisoned."
Lu Jingyu: "I have someone keeping an eye on him. He should still be suspicious of Mo Yu and will take action against him."
Gu Qingning: "Will Mo Yu be in danger?"
Lu Jingyu: "It's okay, he is a martial arts expert, and I have reminded him and asked other secret guards to keep an eye on him, so nothing serious will happen."
In fact, it would be fine if Lu Yun stopped taking action.
Once they really take action against Mo Yu, it can be proved that the matter must be very serious!
Lu Jingyu thought of what happened just now, and asked with concern: "Did she come to bully you again?"
"She didn't succeed," Gu Qingning shook her head, "Chen Yanran failed the talent show, and Chen Ruoying was worried that her mother would choose another wife for the second young master, so she came to ask me for help."
Lu Jingyu was shocked. "How dare she come to you for help?"
Gu Qingning: "Looking for my help is one thing, but actually, I just want to play the victim in front of you, young master, and beg for your pity."
Lu Jingyu: “…”
