Chapter 107 Is it really so happy?
Xie Zhili didn't know how long he had been listening outside the house. Every sound in the house was like a knife, cutting into his heart.
He tried his best to control his emotions, and even pinched his palms to make several bloody marks, so he didn't rush in with a knife.
When he left, he glanced at Sang Ru who was guarding the door, and tightly grasped the wooden box in his hand.
Sang Ru was so nervous that she didn't dare to breathe and lowered her head, fearing that the Second Master would vent his anger on her.
After all, I am just a little maid and cannot influence my master's thoughts. If the lady wants to flirt with the young master, I can't stop her, right?
Xie Zhili didn't vent his anger on the little maid. He threw the things in his hand next to Sang Ru and said coldly, "Remind your wife, don't forget what you promised me today."
Throwing down these words, he left with a dark face and a flick of his sleeves, his steps were extremely fast, not wanting to hear any more noise in the room, fearing that he might not be able to control himself and turn the entire mansion upside down.
Hearing the footsteps fading away, Sang Ru looked up cautiously. Seeing that Xie Zhili had really left, she felt relieved. She patted her chest, took a deep breath, and thought to herself: The Second Master is too scary. He is obviously not allowed to be seen in public, but he acts like the main wife.
On the contrary, the Marquis seems to be the one who wants to eat secretly.
...
Inside the room, Yu Qinghuan was exhausted. She leaned against Mu Huaian's chest, her fingertips gently playing with his hair, and asked, "Are you going back to the manor tomorrow?"
Mu Huaian: "It will take some time. My mother's birthday is in two days."
I haven't been home for two years. Now that I'm in the capital, I have to go back and take a look.
Yu Qinghuan responded.
The room was quiet for a moment, and she couldn't help but ask again, "Will you come to see me in the next two days?"
Mu Huaian thought for a moment. Yu Qinghuan hadn't left yet, so it wouldn't be appropriate for him to keep coming to Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion. If someone with ulterior motives noticed him...
After a while, he asked in a gentle voice, "My mother's birthday is in two days. She should be hosting a banquet at the mansion for some of the women I'm friends with. Do you want to come?"
Yu Qinghuan paused, sat up from the couch, and looked at Mu Huaian, "Can I go too?"
I heard that the wife of Duke Dingguo is a kind person, but she doesn't like occasions with many people. Even if she invites people to a banquet, only some female relatives she is close to can be invited. I have never met the wife of the Duke, so how can I go?
"My mother and I just want to post a note."
Mu Huaian said as he also sat up, picked up the clothes beside him and put them on Yu Qinghuan. He looked at Yu Qinghuan with a smile in his eyes, "Are you coming?"
Yu Qinghuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded under Mu Huaian's burning gaze, "Yes."
She leaned on Mu Huaian's shoulder, holding his waist with her hands, and rubbed her face against his shoulder twice, "What does your mother like?"
Since you are going to congratulate someone on their birthday, you naturally have to prepare a birthday gift.
Mu Huaian smiled even more. "It's good that you're here. I'll have people prepare these. Then I'll have Xiao Wu pick you up."
Yu Qinghuan smiled and agreed, "Okay."
The two chatted for a while, and seeing the light, Mu Huaian got up, dressed, and left.
After seeing the young master off, Sang Ru fetched some hot water and went into the house to wash Yu Qinghuan's body. Seeing that her wife looked exhausted, she couldn't help but think: The wife was never willing to sleep with the marquis before, but now she is so keen on matters between men and women. Is this really so pleasurable?
But she heard the lady shouting and yelling sometimes, as if she was in pain and not very happy.
But if she was not happy, why would she continue to indulge the Second Master in his reckless behavior and be involved with the Young Master?
She couldn't help her curiosity and asked cautiously, "Madam, is sex really so pleasurable?"
Seeing Sang Ru suddenly ask this, Yu Qinghuan actually thought about it, "It can't be said that I'm very happy..."
This kind of thing really can't be explained in just a few words. She has been following the rules for more than ten years, and now she just wants to live happily and taste what she wants.
She patted Sang Ru's shoulder heavily and sincerely shared her experience with her, "But if you choose a man in the future, you must choose carefully and don't treat yourself badly."
Sang Ru's face was filled with resignation. She took the basin aside and handed over the things Xie Zhili had left behind. "Madam, the Second Master came here just now and stayed for a while before leaving. He left something like this."
Yu Qinghuan was slightly stunned. She was so focused on Mu Huaian that she forgot about Xie Zhili. She shouldn't have made much noise just now, right?
She took the box, suddenly feeling a little uneasy. She coughed lightly and asked Sang Ru, "Did he hear anything?"
Sang Ru was silent for a while, and did not respond to Yu Qinghuan's words. She only said, "Second Master looked unhappy when he left. It seems that he was very angry."
After hearing what Sang Ru said, Yu Qinghuan could almost imagine how dark Xie Zhili's face was, and he might even want to kill her.
It seems I have to continue avoiding him for the next few days.
As she was thinking about it, she opened the box and was a little surprised when she saw the objects inside.
Sang Ru came over to take a look and saw that it was a jade pendant, which looked familiar... as if he had seen it somewhere.
It was not until Yu Qinghuan stood up and walked to the dressing table and took out another almost identical jade pendant from the box at the bottom that Sang Ru suddenly remembered.
Isn’t this the jade pendant of love that the Marquis gave to his wife when he got married? He also said that this jade pendant is very useful and that with it one can ask for an imperial decree from His Majesty!
Yu Qinghuan looked at the two almost identical jade pendants in his hand, with only the engravings being different, one for Wen and the other for Li.
When Xie Zhiwen gave her the jade pendant, he said that it was a jade pendant carved by the old marquis himself, made of the finest jade material that he had begged from the emperor for most of his life's military exploits when they were born. It was a symbol of the status of the two brothers, with each of them getting half. If they were put together, it would be an imperial decree to save their lives, so it could not fall into the hands of others.
Even though the Marquis' Mansion is now controlled by the old lady, without this pair of jade pendants, she would not be considered the true housekeeper of the Marquis' Mansion.
It was Xie Zhiwen who gave her the jade pendant when they got married.
Yu Qinghuan originally thought that Xie Zhili just wanted to force her to leave and follow him, but now, the jade pendant in his hand clearly revealed his intentions.
She suddenly felt the jade pendant in her hand burning hot, and felt like she had let down the other person's sincerity... But it was obviously him who wanted to take her as a concubine in the first place!
Why should I do something that will cause misunderstanding now, making myself feel guilty and ashamed?
Seeing Yu Qinghuan staring at the two jade pendants in a daze, Sang Ru became a little worried and called out, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Qinghuan clenched the two jade pendants in her hands and asked Sang Ru, "Did he leave any words?"
Sang Ru nodded, "Second Master asked me to remind Madam not to forget what I promised him today."
Yu Qinghuan was speechless. She had only perfunctorily promised him one thing today: she would not hide from him anymore and leave as soon as possible.
Looking at the jade pendant in her hand, she had a headache. Could it be that Xie Zhili really wanted to marry her?
