Xu Qiu spoke as if nothing had happened, feeling amused on the inside.

But his expression remained calm, neither sad nor happy, like a piece of emotionless wood.

[This kind of thing is really not worth my anger...but the pillow is a bit hard]

After all, he knew that these were all characters created by the author. What's more, Qin Jianjia had extremely strong traditional ideas. After all, the Qin family raised her like the eldest son, so she had to learn a lot of rules.

Unlike Tong Wanxia, ​​who had physical intimacy with others before getting married, perhaps this had something to do with her arrogance.

However, from her tone, Xu Qiu felt that Qin Jianjia seemed to be trying to show her loyalty to him.

Qin Jianjia thought he was really angry.

But when I heard his inner voice, I felt relieved.

She casually handed him her pillow and said in a soft voice, "Here's one for you. It's stuffed with fox fur, so it's softer."

Xu Qiu took the pillow Qin Jianjia handed over in a daze, "Thank you."

Smelling the fragrant pillow, he even suspected that Qin Jianjia could read minds.

[She can read minds...? How strange? ]

[I guess it’s just a guess]

Xu Qiu doesn't believe that mortals can read minds.

When Qin Jianjia heard this, the corners of her tender lips suddenly curled up slightly, but it was so slight that no one noticed.

She added silently: "My feet, don't you want to touch them?"

Xu Qiu was speechless and said, "Really not necessary!"

"Then go to sleep."

"Good night."

Before Xu Qiu could come to his senses, he replied subconsciously.

The next day I don’t know how much time has passed.

It was already early morning when Xu Qiu woke up, and the bright sunlight shone through the window onto the bed.

Then I saw Xiao Cui fetching water, and her gentle voice, "Sir, get up, the young lady has gone to court."

"Um."

Xu Qiu covered his head and stood up, feeling the remaining body temperature beside him, and felt that what happened last night was a little unexpected.

Just like a dream, Qin Jianjia's change of character really caught him off guard.

He was still digesting what happened last night.

Xiao Cui continued, "However, Master, I have something good to tell you. The young lady has asked someone to move all your things into this room. From now on, Master and the young lady will share a room. You, Master, will no longer have to sleep in the side room!"

"Um."

Xu Qiu responded indifferently.

At this time, Xiao Qiao, the maidservant beside Chen, came over and said, "Sir, the Madam wants you to come over."

…

The side hall of the Qin Mansion.

A maid poured Madam Liu a cup of tea and then stepped aside.

Madam Liu looked at Chen and couldn't help asking, "Madam Chen, do you know how your son-in-law and daughter found out about what Liu Bai asked?"

"I don't know. You can only ask them."

Chen pretended to be deaf and dumb.

At this time, Xiao Qiao came to the side hall and said, "Madam, the son-in-law is here."

As Xu Qiu stepped into the side hall, he saw Madam Liu who was forcing a smile.

And Chen, who was sitting in the main seat, was bored.

Xu Qiu had no choice but to bow and say, "Madam Liu, good morning."

"Yeah." Mrs. Liu didn't look at him directly. She just picked up the teacup, opened the lid, and spoke casually.

Since Madam Liu said so, Xu Qiu also pretended to be a stranger and slowly came to Chen.

[Madam Liu, is this because of Tong Wanxia's matter? ]

[According to my understanding of the plot, it is estimated that Tong Wanxia cried and put all the blame on me and Qin Yumo, but the mother and son are really the same, the daughter had an affair with Ye Liangchen, and Madam Liu had a late-night affair with her son-in-law]

Xu Qiu remembered that Madam Liu asked Liu Bai to ask about Brother Liu while she was on the couch.

As for Aunt Huang, who was cheating on Liu Baiwen, she was just a shield and a tool for cover-up.

[So Liu Baiwen was caught cheating, but now he just let it go lightly, and even married Aunt Huang into the family]

Xu Qiu couldn't help but think that this author is really a talented person.

I don't know how this plot was thought up.

Xu Qiu couldn't help but suspect that the author of the novel was a moderator and was quite familiar with the Minotaur plot.

At this moment, Chen Xiaomei, who was originally drinking tea to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Hearing Xu Qiu's thoughts, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of tea, staring at Madam Liu with open eyes, an expression of disbelief.

"This Tong family is too chaotic. Like daughter, like mother, this is outrageous!"

Chen thought to herself.

Especially when I heard that Madam Liu was actually with her son-in-law... I heard that Liu Baiwen was a nephew of Madam Liu's mother's family, this, this, this...

Chen began to dislike Madam Liu.

Mrs. Liu didn't understand, but Xu Qiu's attitude made her a little unhappy.

But thinking of Tong Wanxia's matter, he had to hold back his anger and asked, "Nephew Xu, how did you and Qin Yumo know about Liu Baiwen's incident at Wanhe Street?"

"I don't know." Xu Qiu replied indifferently.

"..." Madam Liu raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes slightly raised, seeming a little angry, "You don't know, how do you know that Liu Baiwen is in Wanhe Street?"

Chen also knew that Xu Qiu was dissatisfied with Madam Liu's attitude just now.

So he said to Madam Liu: "I'm sorry, Xu Qiu just recovered from illness recently and is in a low mood."

"I think he just doesn't want to answer!"

Madam Liu said unhappily, and even slapped the table with a "bang".

She couldn't bear it any longer at this moment. This little son-in-law actually offended her!

Xu Qiu still didn't raise his eyes.

[Can she be driven away? This woman is annoying just by looking at her. Chen didn't know that she had bad intentions when she came to the Qin family, and she didn't know that she committed suicide by hitting the wall because of her frame-up.]

Chen, who originally wanted to be a peacemaker, quickly fell in dismay when he heard this.

Chen had never expected that the person who harmed her was actually Madam Liu! Chen had once considered her a good sister, especially since their husbands held the same official positions, and they were even close sisters.

But after Qin Jianjia became a female general, her future was bright, and Madam Liu seemed to have changed. She often teased and mocked her, and now from what she heard from Xu Qiu, she would even harm her in the future.

"Xu Qiutong's words are not to be taken lightly. Madam Liu, please don't be too surprised. Especially since he just recovered from his illness, it's normal for him to forget things frequently. He might remember them in a few days."

Chen was determined to protect Xu Qiu.

Madam Liu looked at Chen in astonishment. Xu Qiu was just a small-time married woman. Was he worthy of Chen Xiaomei's protection? "Madam Chen, you are going too far..."

Mrs. Liu just said half of it.

A voice came over, "Madam Liu, my brother-in-law really doesn't know. Do you still want to torture him into confessing?"

Qin Yumo walked straight in through the door. She had just heard Xu Qiu's thoughts.

Especially when Qin Yumo heard that her mother had committed suicide by hitting the wall to prove her innocence because of Madam Liu's frame-up, she wanted to beat Madam Liu out. Her daughter was just as evil as she was! She almost offended the royal family.

"You are such a sharp-tongued girl." Madam Liu was furious. It seemed that the Qin family was targeting her.

“Thanks for the compliment!”

Qin Yumo raised his head with pride.

When Madam Liu saw this scene, she cursed in her heart.

However, she really wanted to know how Xu Qiu and Qin Yumo knew what happened last night, so she shamelessly asked, "Niece Qin, how did you know about Liu Baiwen's incident at Wanhe Street?"
