Chapter 174 Making the wife angry and not letting her go to bed

"Let her in."

"Yes, the master."

After Leng Xiao went out, he said to Du Huilan, "Second Madam, please come in."

Du Huilan then walked in with her skirt lifted with satisfaction.

Caiyue followed in with a food box.

Leng Xiao continued to stand guard at the door.

After Du Huilan went in, she saw Xie Jing sitting in front of the desk, looking down at the topographic map seriously.

It gets dark late in the summer, but it was still bright outside.

She walked up slowly, "General, I have prepared some wine and food."

Caiyue handed over the food box in tacit understanding, and then opened the lid.

Du Huilan reached in and took out the wine and food one by one and placed them on the round table.

After the wine and food were placed, Du Huilan looked at Xie Jing and saw that he was still sitting in front of the desk.

She walked over and stood in front of the desk. She looked at Xie Jing who was looking down at the topographic map and said softly, "General, let's have dinner first."

Xie Jing raised his head and looked at Du Huilan in front of him. Seeing her clothes, there was no emotion in his dark eyes.

"Leng Xiao said you have something to tell me?"

The cold voice did not have any ups and downs.

Du Huilan pinched her sleeves. Xie Jing sat there with his tall figure, like sitting on a mountain, motionless, as if he didn't see her.

"General, let's have dinner first."

Xie Jing glanced at the wine and food on the round table, his voice still cold, "If you don't want to say it, go out."

Du Huilan pursed her pink lips. Xie Jing's voice without any emotion, as if he was talking to a stranger, made her a little embarrassed.

"General, I have been married to you for almost a year. What exactly are you dissatisfied with me for? Why haven't you consummated the marriage with me?"

Xie Jing said in a deep voice: "I promised to marry you, but I didn't promise to consummate the marriage with you."

Du Huilan was a little dissatisfied when she heard this, "You have already married me, why can't you consummate the marriage with me? Then what's the point of marrying me?"

Xie Jing looked at Du Huilan who was about to cry in front of him, without any sympathy in his eyes.

"I never thought of marrying you. How did you marry into this family? You know better than anyone."

Du Huilan was stunned on the spot. What if she wanted to marry Xie Jing?

What if she asked the grandfather to intervene?

She looked at Xie Jing with tears in her eyes, "I have liked you for so many years, why do you like a wild girl? How can I not compare to her? You would rather marry a wild girl who can't do anything than marry me. In order to marry you, I am willing to be your equal wife. What else do you want from me?"

Xie Jing said one sentence at a time, "What does your opinion have to do with me? That's your business. Who I like is my business. It's not your turn to say anything. In my eyes, she is ten thousand times better than you."

Du Huilan took a few steps back as if she was hit. The man she had always loved said this about her for another woman?

After all, she was the granddaughter of everyone. She was willing to be humble in the attached primary school. In his eyes, it was all her own fault.

"Xie Jing, I have liked you for so many years, don't you like me at all?"

Xie Jing stood up, left the desk, and looked at Du Huilan coldly, "If it weren't for the general, I wouldn't have to marry a woman I don't like. Get out of here."

Du Huilan threw herself into his arms unwillingly.

Xie Jing didn't expect that the always dignified Du Huilan would do such a thing. The distance was too close, and she couldn't avoid it, so she was hugged by her.

"Xie Jing, I really like you, and you try to like me too..."

Before she finished speaking, she was pushed away by Xie Jing, without any sympathy for her.

Du Huilan lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"I don't like being hugged."

Du Huilan was stunned.

Xie Jing stopped looking at Du Huilan and ordered in a cold voice: "Leng Xiao, send the second wife back."

Leng Xiao walked in quickly, saw Du Huilan on the ground, was stunned for a moment, bent down and helped the man up.

Caiyue reacted and stepped forward to help her own girl.

After everyone went out, Xie Jing looked down and ordered: "Come on, prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."

The guards guarding the door took the order to prepare hot water.

It was very hot in the daytime, and now the sun has set, it is cooler.

Nan Mianmian came out for a walk with a round fan in her hand, and saw Du Huilan and her maid Caiyue from a distance, and Leng Xiao followed behind.

Looking at Du Huilan again, the light pink clothes were so transparent that you can see the bellyband inside. She

was wearing such thin clothes, did she go to see Xie Jing?

Du Huilan was in such a state of panic that it took her a while to react. She saw Leng Xiao behind her. She was also a daughter of a noble family, and she was the center of attention. How could

she be so panicked? "Leng Xiao, go back."

If it weren't for the master's order, Leng Xiao would not want to follow. Now that Du Huilan had spoken, he naturally wanted to do it.

"Second Madam, take care. I'll go back and report."

Du Huilan ignored Leng Xiao and returned to her own courtyard with the help of Caiyue.

Nan Mianmian hurried and couldn't stop Du Huilan. Seeing Leng Xiao, she simply stopped him.

"What are you doing?"

Leng Xiao lowered his head and nodded, "Send the second wife back."

Nan Mianmian's eyes flashed with doubt, "Isn't the second wife's leg fine? Why do you need to send her back?"

Leng Xiao replied, "It was the master's order."

Nan Mianmian nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly asked curiously, "Did Du Huilan seduce the general and then was thrown out by the general?"

Leng Xiao was stunned when he heard this.

Seeing that Leng Xiao didn't say anything, Nan Mianmian poked his arm with her round fan in dissatisfaction, "Why don't you answer? Is it or not?"

Leng Xiao lowered his head even more, "I don't know."

Nan Mianmian snorted, "You are guarding the general's door, you don't know who knows? You don't want to tell me?"

Leng Xiao lowered his head and said nothing.

Nan Mianmian pouted. Leng Xiao knew it was someone who knew the truth but didn't want to tell her.

Du Huilan was wearing such thin clothes. Who else was she trying to seduce if not Xie Jing?

No need to ask, you know that Du Huilan's seduction failed.

She glanced at Leng Xiao for a few times and asked him curiously, "You have followed the general for so many years, how much do you know about the general?"

Leng Xiao replied, "I don't know."

Nan Mianmian: "..."

Leng Xiao said, "If the Third Madam is fine, I will leave."

Nan Mianmian looked at Leng Xiao. He knew everything but didn't say anything. She waved the round fan in her hand and said, "Let's go."

Leng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

Jiang Youning was already hungry, and she became even hungrier when she saw the food in front of her. If Xie Jing hadn't said that he would come to have dinner together, she would have eaten first.

Just when she could not help herself, she saw Xie Jing walk in and found that the clothes he was wearing were different from those at noon.

It was hot in summer, so it was normal to change clothes.

When Xie Jing sat down at the table, Jiang Youning smelled a fragrance, the fragrance after bathing.

Every time Xie Jing took a bath, she would smell this fragrance from him, so it was very familiar.

"Did the general take a bath before he came?"

Xie Jing paused in holding the chopsticks and nodded vaguely, "Yeah."

Jiang Youning took the rice bowl, picked up the dishes and started eating.

Xie Jing looked up at Jiang Youning, and didn't know what was going on, but felt a little guilty. Jiang Youning didn't take it seriously

at first, but when she was picking up the dishes, she found that Xie Jing was secretly looking at her, which was very strange.

Xie Jing always looked at her openly, so when did he do that secretly?

"General, you look really good in turquoise clothes."

"Really?" Xie Jing looked down, and saw that his clothes were mostly dark.

Jiang Youning smiled and said, "Of course, I was wearing this when I first met the general. Did you wear this on purpose before you came?"

Xie Jing raised his head and saw Jiang Youning smiling at him. He had a good memory, and after a little thought, he remembered that he was indeed wearing this color of clothes when they first met.

He nodded, "Yeah."

Jiang Youning narrowed her eyes and looked Xie Jing up and down, and always felt that he was lying.

Seeing that she was staring at him, Xie Jing asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

Jiang Youning snorted, "The general has also learned to lie."

Xie Jing paused in chewing, and looked at Jiang Youning, feeling a little guilty.

"Where did I lie?"

Jiang Youning pointed at his clothes and said, "I said the general said he wore this dress specially for me, and the general said yes."

Xie Jing asked back, "Is there a problem?"

Seeing that he was still not telling the truth, Jiang Youning was confused, "When did you wear clothes because of my preference? I didn't say I liked you wearing cyan clothes."

Xie Jing: "..."

"You didn't say that, I met Du Huilan before I came."

Jiang Youning said "Oh" meaningfully, "So that's it, you smell of gouache?"

Xie Jing said "Hmm".

Jiang Youning snorted, "I knew you wouldn't take a bath for no reason. It turned out that you were in close contact with the second wife."

Xie Jing explained, "It's not what you think."

Jiang Youning asked, "What happened then?"

Xie Jing pursed his lips and said, "Nothing, let's eat."

Jiang Youning saw that Xie Jing was hesitant to speak, so she knew he was hiding something from her.

With such a guilty conscience, who knows how to be intimate.

Jiang Youning ate the food in front of her in a depressed mood.

After dinner, Xie Jing went to the study.

Jiang Youning lay on the bed, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. "Xie Jing is obviously guilty, how could he just let him get away with it?"

Jiang Youning pondered for a while, got up from the bed, opened the cabinet, took out a pen and paper, quickly wrote a sentence, then put away the pen and paper, and pasted the written paper on the bed curtain.

Looking at the words on the paper, Jiang Youning climbed onto the bed with satisfaction.

Xie Jing came back from the study after work, pushed open the door and walked straight in. After closing the door, he came to the bed. There

were two candles left in the room, and light breathing sounds came evenly from the bed.

Xie Jing stopped and was about to take off his clothes when he saw a piece of paper stuck on the bed. He reached out to take it down, and then used the faint candlelight to see the words on it clearly.

Xie Jing is not allowed to go to bed!

Xie Jing looked at the six big words on the paper, his eyes paused, not allowed to go to bed?

He raised his head and looked at the bed, Jiang Youning was sleeping soundly.

After thinking about it carefully, he guessed why Jiang Youning didn't let him go to bed.

Because he met Du Huilan before dinner and changed his clothes.

He put the paper on the cabinet beside him, and then began to take off his clothes.

The next morning, when Jiang Youning woke up, there was no one beside her. She sat up and glanced at the bed curtain. The note was gone.

There was no need to ask to know that Xie Jing came last night.

She lowered her head and saw the paper on the cabinet. Not only did he come, but he also ignored her note.

Chuntao came in with a wash basin and saw Jiang Youning sitting on the bed in a daze, "Miss, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Jiang Youning stood up and began to put on her clothes depressedly.

"Miss, I'll measure your size later and make new clothes for you, okay?"

"Okay." Jiang Youning responded, took the towel from Chuntao's hand and wiped her cheeks.

After washing up, Chuntao brought in breakfast.

Jiang Youning picked up the meat bun, put it into her mouth, took a big bite, and chewed hard, as if to vent her anger. Chuntao

found that her girl was a little bit abnormal, and asked worriedly: "Miss, did you not sleep well last night?"

Jiang Youning raised her head and glanced at Chuntao, then nodded, "Yeah."

Chuntao smiled and said, "Then the girl should go to sleep for a while after eating."

Jiang Youning puffed her cheeks and said "hmm" vaguely.

After breakfast, Jiang Youning lay on the couch, looking at the tools for making velvet flowers beside her, and stretched out her hands to put the tools in place.

Chuntao walked in at this time, "Miss, Leng Xiao is here."

Jiang Youning asked in confusion, "What is he here for?" Leng Xiao

walked in with a food box, saw Jiang Youning, and stepped forward and said, "Madam, this is what the general asked me to send to you."

Jiang Youning paused when she heard the words, raised her head and looked at Leng Xiao, to be precise, at the food box in his hand.

Leng Xiao noticed Jiang Youning's gaze, understood what was going on, and took a few steps forward to put the food box on the low table in front of her.

Jiang Youning looked at the food box brought by Xie Jing, and her mood improved by half.

"Did he say anything?"

Leng Xiao said, "The general said that this is for the lady, and the lady must open it personally."

Jiang Youning: "..." It's better not to say anything.

After Leng Xiao left, Jiang Youning couldn't wait to open the food box, and a fragrance wafted out.

There were two plates of cakes and a piece of paper in the food box.

She curiously picked up the paper and opened it, and saw that it said, I didn't touch her.

Jiang Youning looked at the four words on the paper. Is this an explanation?

In the evening, when Xie Jing came back, he saw another piece of paper pasted on the bed. He took it down and took a look.

The explanation was not clear enough and going to bed was forbidden.

After reading it, Xie Jing put the paper on the cabinet and then took off his clothes.

The next day, Jiang Youning woke up slowly and saw a figure standing in front of the bed. She rubbed her eyes and was stunned when she saw that the person in front of her was Xie Jing.

"The general didn't go out?"

Xie Jing: "Yeah."

I don't know how long Xie Jing stood in front of the bed, Jiang Youning sat up slowly.

Xie Jing took out clothes and handed them to her. Summer clothes are thin, and when she sleeps, the clothes outside are no different from not wearing anything.

His throat tightened.

Jiang Youning took the clothes from his hand and began to put them on.

Xie Jing explained: "I didn't touch Du Huilan. She came to the study that day and wanted to drink with me. I refused. She hugged me when she was not prepared, and I quickly pushed her away."

Jiang Youning put on her clothes and raised her head to look at Xie Jing: "No more?"

Xie Jing said: "No more."

Jiang Youning: "..." Why don't I believe it?

Xie Jing looked at her with her clothes still hanging on her shoulders, her snow-white skin glowing, his eyes darkened, and he stretched out his hand to pull Jiang's clothes to cover her round shoulders.

Jiang Youning only then realized that her clothes were halfway put on, and she hurriedly continued to put on her clothes.

After Xie Jing saw that she had put on her clothes, he asked, "Have you explained it clearly this time?"

Jiang Youning paused, "I'll believe you for now."

The word "for now" made Xie Jing frown.

"I have something to tell you."

Good morning, babies!
