Chapter 349 Hateful Man
Cheng Yunshuo was acting very abnormally today, and Li Bijie had no idea what he was thinking.
If you are not sure, don't touch it! To retreat in order to advance, ask Cheng Yunshuo to coax her!
Li Bixi immediately changed her expression, putting on her usual aggrieved and pitiful look, and looked at Cheng Yunshuo charmingly, "Master, you haven't been home for a long time recently. I've been waiting for you to come back day and night in Bishui Garden. I have no other thoughts, just thinking that Master can have me in your heart. If Master has me in your heart even a little bit, my life will be worth it!"
Normally, her humble and delicate words would surely arouse Cheng Yunshuo's sympathy and love.
Even if he doesn't give her some good things as a reward, at least he will give Li Bixi a positive answer verbally.
It's not that you are in my heart and I will never let you down, it's just that you think too much. I will never take anyone else in to give Li Bixi enough sense of security.
And today, Cheng Yunshuo's gaze was even colder.
Because when he heard Li Bixi's familiar words today, he felt they were so fake.
If she really had a little bit of sincerity in him, would she have poisoned him for so many years?
Cheng Yunshuo looked at Li Bixi who was acting in front of him for a long time. He stood up under her pitiful gaze and walked out.
When Li Bixiang saw that he was leaving, she became really anxious.
Cheng Lanying has not been released from confinement yet. She has spent all her money to lure Cheng Yunshuo to her yard today. If Cheng Yunshuo doesn't come again, she doesn't know how she will live here!
In her anxiety, she stepped forward and hugged Cheng Yunshuo's arm.
"My Lord! What did I do wrong that you dislike me so much now?!"
Cheng Yunshuo was hugged by her arms, and finally said the first words since entering her place today, "Let go!"
"Master, could it be that Lanying made you angry last time, and you haven't calmed down yet? I have already given Lanying a good scolding, and I promise you that she will never do such a rude thing for the third time! Why don't you let her out, and I will ask her to apologize to Daddy!"
Cheng Yunshuo sneered when he heard this.
Li Bixiang sensed that something was definitely wrong with Cheng Yunshuo today. Considering that he would rather go to the temple than come back recently, it was most likely that someone had said something to Cheng Yunshuo behind her back, making him hate her.
She blinked her eyes and tears flowed directly out, "Master! In this square house, I only have you to rely on! I don't ask for glory and wealth in this life, but I ask for a little friendship. Bixi is lowly and stupid. If Bixi has done something wrong and offended the prince, please let Bixi know clearly and don't let other people misunderstand me with rumors!"
Her words were sincere and heartfelt, especially the part where she didn't ask for fame or wealth, but only for a little true love. Cheng Yunshuo's eyes trembled when he heard it. He really wanted to throw the prescription and half a pack of tea in his arms at her face and ask her loudly, this is her little true love!
How long does she want to deceive him?
But when his gaze met Li Bixi's eyes, which were very similar to the woman in his memory, and the tears that were now falling line by line, full of anxiety and longing, his heart stagnated, as if it was being held tightly by a big hand.
Cheng Yunshuo closed his eyes, swung his arm, pushed Li Bixi away, and strode out of her yard.
He suppressed his anger.
He endured it and didn't reveal the matter of tea leaves and break up with her.
Li Bixiang, who was thrown away, staggered and hit the doorstep. She cried out in pain, but the person in front of her walked away without looking back.
When Li Bixi saw this, her heart sank completely.
There is definitely something wrong with Cheng Yunshuo. There is definitely something big wrong with him!
She asked Xiaoju to chase him and see where he was going. Xiaoju came back quickly and told her that Cheng Yunshuo had left the house again and he had not gone to see any of the concubines or the mistress.
When Li Bijie learned that he had left the mansion, she gritted her teeth and took out her son's private treasury. That was the money she left for her son. She took out most of it and bribed the servants to track down Cheng Yunshuo's whereabouts.
In her opinion, if it wasn't for the instigation of the concubines in the mansion, then Cheng Yunshuo must have had another woman outside.
He changed his heart, and he was no longer the same to her as before.
There must be a new woman!
But soon, the servants she managed brought a message that Cheng Yunshuo went to Guangji Temple outside the city again.
When Li Bijie heard that Cheng Yunshuo was going to look for Master Yuanqing again, she was stunned for a moment.
After a while, she shook her head firmly.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! There must be something wrong! It's definitely not a monk!"
She firmly refused to believe that Cheng Yunshuo was bewitched by a monk. There must be cat pee in there.
Because she simply didn't believe that she would lose to an old monk with wrinkled skin!
She wants to go to Guangji Temple in person, see it with her own eyes, and catch the person in person!
The next day, in Lu Lingyun's yard.
Lu Lingjun was busy with Lu Kuan's affairs. Today she received news that Tong Nanying had married from Jiangnan, and the Lu family had to start preparing a betrothal gift for Lu Kuan.
She had previously told the Lu family about Lu Kuan's plan to marry Tong Nanyi. When Lu's father learned that Lu Kuan was going to marry Tong's daughter, he agreed without hesitation and said that he wanted to have a grand wedding. He would open up all the warehouses at home and even borrow money from outside, just to prepare the most generous betrothal gift for the Tong family.
After hearing this, Liu rolled her eyes and fainted.
Her fainting could not affect Old Man Lu's decision. The Lu family had married off daughters and wives one after another in recent years, and they were not very wealthy to begin with. Now they had to empty their family savings to help Lu Kuan get married. After the marriage, both Liu and Old Man Lu would be left with nothing!
She quarreled with Old Man Lu for several days, and he just said that if she disagreed, she could go back to her parents' home and he would divorce her!
Liu then fell silent.
She fell silent and gave up hope, because she realized that she had done her best for him over the years, gave birth to children, and managed the household, but in the end, she was still no match for his late wife!
Old Man Lu's decision to let his son marry a girl from the Tong family and the grand ceremony he made was all because of his late wife!
He did not give Lu Lingyun's mother a splendid wedding and betrothal gifts back then. This is his way of compensating her in disguise!
That hateful man, she married him again and lived with him for so many years, but in the end, in his heart, Tong was his favorite! She was nothing!
Liu was heartbroken and no longer cared about the Lu family's affairs. She simply left the family's financial support to her aunt, who could do whatever they wanted with the family. After all, she would be left with nothing after taking care of the Lu family.
The aunt of the Lu family got this huge mess of a stall, and they had no idea how to manage it, so naturally they sent it to Lu Lingyun and asked her to make arrangements!
Lu Lingyun looked at the miscellaneous list of betrothal gifts and added some more things to it.
At this time, a servant came to report.
"Young Madam, Aunt Li is here to see you."
