Chapter 365 I feel sleepy, someone hands me a pillow
"Ayu, did you hear anything last night?"
The next morning, Xie Zhuoning asked as he got up and washed up.
Song Yuqiu was preparing snake medicine at the table, thinking that if Ye Wuque dared to release his little green snake again next time, she would make sure it never came back.
Without even looking up, he said casually, "I heard that there were two assassins, a man and a woman, but they were captured before they even got in. Sister Zhuo Ning, these thieves are too bold to provoke us without even knowing who lives here!"
Others pick on the soft persimmons, but those two idiots pick on the hard ones.
Xie Zhuoning looked thoughtful, "Do you think those two people were deliberately sent by Yang Lie to test us?"
Before stealing something, thieves in the underworld would always scout the area first. If they were going to steal, they would go to the main courtyard's study, storehouse, etc. Who would go into the guest room?
Song Yuqiu immediately raised her head with her eyes wide open. "Sister Zhuo Ning, are you saying that Yang Lie understood the hint I gave him yesterday and knew you were here? When did he become so smart?"
Xie Zhuoning's mouth twitched, "Yang Lie is not stupid."
"Yes, he is not stupid, but Zhao Yi played him like a dog with just a few words."
Song Yuqiu rolled her eyes, and her expression and tone showed how deeply she hated him.
Xie Zhuoning smiled and said, "If you really don't want to live with him, then after we are out of Ye Wuque's control, you can come with me. Women have their own world in life, so why should they be restrained by a man?"
Anyway, I had left a way out for her from the beginning.
The dowry of more than 200,000 taels was the basis for her to live freely for the rest of her life.
Song Yuqiu had never expected that in this age dominated by male supremacy, she would hear such words. She was deeply moved and started laughing as well.
"It's a deal then. I will follow you happily, Sister Zhuo Ning. Even if you annoy me to death, don't try to get rid of me!"
While talking, he came over and wanted to cuddle and hug me, just like a little child.
Xie Zhuoning couldn't stand her annoyance and quickly stopped her, "Okay, okay, let's talk business. The people sent by Yang Lie and his men are blocked by Ye Wuque's shadow guards and can't get in. We have to find a way to get out of Huaisang Courtyard and tell them about our situation."
"Think of a way out?" Song Yuqiu pondered, and then his eyes lit up, "I got it!"
The two of them huddled together and whispered for a long time.
In the afternoon, Song Yuqiu went to the front yard to look for Ye Wuque in a heroic and high-spirited manner.
As soon as she entered, she got straight to the point, "I want to take Sister Zhuo Ning out!"
Ye Wuque was staring at the Forget-Me-Not Flower, which had already sprouted and grown leaves. There was even a bud the size of a grain of rice in the middle of the leaves.
He cut his finger and blood dripped onto the leaves and soil. The plant quickly absorbed the blood as if it had life.
After finishing all this slowly and methodically, Ye Wuque took the handkerchief handed to him by Shisan and wiped the blood off his hands. Then he raised his head and glanced at Song Yuqiu, "What are you crazy about?"
That glance was indifferent, yet seemed to be able to see through everything.
Song Yuqiu swallowed her saliva and said, "I went to see Sister Zhuo Ning today and found that as soon as she closed the door, she began to feel dizzy, sweat, flushed, and palpitated. This is a typical case of claustrophobia. If she continues to be restrained, her condition will only get worse!"
Aclaustrophobia?
Although I don't know what the disease is, I can roughly guess what it is from the literal meaning.
Ye Wuque narrowed his eyes and looked at her dangerously, "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on her? Why did this happen?"
Song Yuqiu immediately retorted, "Even if it's a normal person, being locked up in a room every day with so many eyes staring at you, you'd go crazy, right? What's more, Sister Zhuo Ning is already suffering from love poisoning, and her emotions are very unstable, so it's easier for her to develop other diseases. You keep saying that you like her, but you don't consider her physical and mental health at all. Your love is too hypocritical!"
Although she felt good after talking so much, she was still very nervous when she saw Ye Wuque's eyes which seemed to be shrouded in thick mist.
She held tightly in her hand the snake medicine she had just prepared, fearing that the man would get angry and throw the little green snake out to threaten her.
Just when the situation was at its most tense, Meier came to find her in the front yard and said, "Madam, the Marquis is here and wants to see you."
Ye Wuque seemed to smile, and that smile made Song Yuqiu's alarm bells ring.
She immediately said fiercely: "No, let him go! He comes here every day, isn't it annoying?!"
"Oh oh oh." Mei'er was about to go out after receiving the order.
Ye Wuque then spoke slowly, "Why not? If you avoid me, what if Marquis Changxing thinks something has happened to you and rushes into Huaisang Courtyard with his men?"
Then he said to Mei'er, "Go and invite your Lord in."
Soon, Yang Lie walked in.
Seeing Ye Wuque present, he frowned immediately, "We are talking as husband and wife, and we don't want outsiders to be present. Please step aside."
"Hmm?" Ye Wuque raised his eyes and looked at Song Yuqiu, "Do I need to avoid it?"
Song Yuqiu shuddered at the look and understood the threat contained in it.
She immediately showed an impatient look and said to Yang Lie, "He is my guest, don't boss him around. If you have something to say, say it here, otherwise get out of here!"
That attitude is really not polite.
In the past, Yang Lie would have turned around and left.
But today, I don’t know if it was because the sun rose from the west, but he was not annoyed at all and even asked someone to bring in a food box.
"These are the candied fruits I bought especially for you. They are all your favorites. Try them. If you like them, I'll buy you some more."
This unusual behavior made Ye Wuque raise his eyebrows.
Song Yuqiu glanced at him and immediately jumped away with a look of caution, "Why are you so kind all of a sudden? Did you put drugs in the candied fruit?"
This girl, can't she think positively?
Is this the kind of person I am in her heart?
Yang Lie was hurt inside, but he still kept smiling. "You are my legally married wife, how could I treat you like that? It's just that I learned about your achievements and grievances from Wen Yan these two days, and I feel sorry for you, so I came here today to apologize to you. People say that there is no overnight hatred between husband and wife, and they fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. Please forgive me this time, and we will live a good life in the future, okay?"
Song Yuqiu's heart almost skipped a beat when she was stared at by those affectionate and unrepentant eyes.
Was Yang Lie abducted by someone?
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Although Song Yuqiu didn't know what he was going to do, she immediately cooperated.
She pouted in grievance, tears welling up uncontrollably, "I thought you only had Zhao Yi in your heart."
"How could that be?" Yang Lie's eyes jumped when he saw her expression change so quickly, but he still reached out and gently held her in his arms, "To her, I am just grateful to her father for saving my life, but you are the one who will accompany me for the rest of my life."
Song Yuqiu rolled her eyes when she heard this.
No wonder so many women are deceived by men’s sweet words, these words sound so coherent.
She covered her mouth, looking so moved that she was about to cry, "Lord Hou~~~"
"Okay, little idiot, stop crying," Yang Lie wiped her tears gently, "There will be a New Year's fireworks show in the south of the city tonight, how about we go together? Didn't you say you like watching fireworks the most?"
Song Yuqiu suddenly had an idea.
Isn't it that as soon as you feel sleepy, someone will hand you a pillow?
She and Sister Zhuoning were worried that they would not have the chance to leave Huaisangyuan!
But when Song Yuqiu thought of Ye Wuque who was watching them leisurely, he immediately refused, "No!"
