Chapter 55 Who is that wild man?
Humph, if you want to stay overnight, of course you dare not stay out all night!
As Chen Zhi thought about this, she felt that her cousin's wife was cunning and was playing word games with her.
But now that her grandmother is here, Chen Zhi doesn't want to question Shen Wangshu in front of so many people, lest she doesn't make it clear and wrongly accuses her, which will make everyone embarrassed in the future.
"What's wrong, Zhiniang? Did you go to your cousin Nian Nian for something last night?" the old lady asked curiously.
"There's a lot of noise in Xuanji Courtyard, I just want to show my concern for my cousin." Chen Zhi smiled at Chen Wangshu and invited him, "If you have nothing to do on weekdays, can you come and play with me?"
"Of course you can." Shen Wangshu didn't know what she was up to. After she got married, the two of them had always kept to themselves. This should be the first time they had officially met.
She could clearly sense that the little girl was wary of her...but why? Did they know each other before?
In any case, the aunt and sister-in-law were still harmonious in front of the old lady, exchanging a few pleasantries, and were polite and courteous.
After breakfast, Shen Wangshu took his people back to Xuanji Courtyard.
The guards who were guarding the door last night have all left, and the yard is quiet, as if there is no one there.
......The illness was so serious last night, could Chen Ting still be on duty today? ?
Shen Wangshu looked around inside and outside but couldn't find anyone, and finally had to face the possibility that he really went on duty.
Wutong said: "The general's illness usually lasts at least three days. Maybe he went to get treatment."
"I don't care where he goes." Shen Wangshu said. She still had to research a new soap today. The penicillin experiment a few days ago was not successful. Ji Mingyi's people would come to deliver the deed in a while. "I have a lot of things to do. Let him do whatever he wants."
That being said, she couldn't calm down until noon. The silver needle poked carelessly on the sheepskin with a map of human acupuncture points. Shen Wangshu's mind was empty. She couldn't help but wonder what disease Chen Ting had that she couldn't cure. At the same time, she warned herself not to be too curious - he was hiding it from her and it was obvious that he didn't trust her enough. Forcing the exploration might backfire.
Chen Wangshu advised himself like this. He had finally managed to improve his favorability these days. If he endured for a while, everything would be fine. If he took a step back, the sky would be wide open... But he still felt so aggrieved. Damn it.
She poked the needle hard into her pubic area, gnashing her teeth and thinking that she would have to ask Chen Ting to be her nude model in person to make her feel better.
Seeing that her wife was fidgeting, Taohong took the initiative to suggest, "It's already this late, and Shopkeeper Ji hasn't had anyone deliver the deed yet. Maybe he's been delayed by something. Why don't we go to the street again?"
Shen Wangshu immediately stood up and patted her skirt: "What you said makes sense, it's just right for us to go and see what that lecher is like."
It's better to be outside than to be in the yard with all these wild thoughts. Whoever wants to be a resentful woman in the boudoir can do it, she thought. I'm going to go out and have fun.
She remembered that last night in Furong Building, in addition to the beautiful dancers, there were also some pretty young prostitutes... She was not in a very good mood, so even if she didn't do anything else, it wouldn't be too much to just admire them, right?
The weather was good today, and the sun was scorching. Shen Wangshu took Tao Hong and Lv Liu out of the house and found that the streets were already bustling.
As luck would have it, after walking a few steps, I ran into Chen Zhi who was also leaving the house: "Xiahou Wangshu?"
There were also some young ladies surrounding her like stars surrounding the moon, chattering together and talking in low voices.
Outside the mansion, Chen Zhizhen was like a haughty little peacock, with her arrogance and high spirits not concealed at all. The other young ladies were obviously trying to please her.
Shen Wangshu raised her eyebrows. This little girl was so respectful and polite to her at her grandmother's place in the morning, but as soon as she left the house, she called her by her full name. It was obvious that she didn't really take her, her cousin, seriously.
The other young ladies didn't recognize Shen Wangshu. Seeing that she was the same age as them, they thought she was also an unmarried young lady from some family: "Sister Zhi, who is this?"
"I've never seen her before. Whose girl is she?"
As soon as Chen Zhi saw Shen Wangshu now, she subconsciously felt that something was wrong with her—especially since she actually left the house today!
The servants in the house all knew that her eldest brother's newly married wife never went out of the house all day and liked to stay in her own yard. Last night was the Chinese Valentine's Day, and it would have been fine if Shen Wangshu had gone out with her eldest brother, but today she was clearly alone, so why did she go out?
"Who are you going to see?" Chen Zhi did not satisfy the curiosity of the other young ladies, and frowned at Shen Wangshu and questioned.
Such obvious hostility, anyone with a discerning eye can see it, if Shen Wangshu himself still can't detect it, then something strange will happen, he asked innocently: "I'm just turning around, I'm not going to see anyone... I'm allowing you to come out, but I can't?"
Chen Zhi didn't expect that she had no guilt at all and dared to ask herself back. She was a little angry, and after getting closer, she lowered her voice and threatened: "You'd better be honest and don't think about betraying my eldest brother."
Shen Wangshu calmly replied: "Why would I betray my husband? Who did Sister Azhi say what?"
Chen Zhi's emotions were volatile at the moment, and she could hear clearly what she was thinking - "Does she want to see her lover for the last time today? Big brother is still sick! How can she be so excessive?!"
"Didn't I intercept the note? How could she still contact that wild man? Did I miss something? But I have been keeping a close eye on the concierge recently."
"Who is that wild man? Should I tell my brother about this?"
"If I tell my eldest brother, what if he and his wife are not getting along and my grandmother blames me in the end? And my eldest brother seems to like this woman very much... He has been blinded by love. What if I tell him but he doesn't listen and blames me instead?"
"But if I don't tell you, are we just going to watch my elder brother get cuckolded? My elder brother works hard outside every day, and when he comes home he has to face a wife like this. Maybe even the child won't be his in the future. God... This is too tragic."
The little girl's inner thoughts were so complicated that Shen Wangshu almost laughed when he heard her struggling. He suddenly asked, "Zhi Niang thinks I have an affair with a man outside? Why?"
Chen Zhi was caught off guard and blurted out the truth: "That person's note was delivered to me, I saw it all!"
"? Who sent it?" Shen Wangshu asked.
But by this time Chen Zhi had already reacted and realized that she had been tricked. She grabbed her arm warily and said, "Don't you know who your mistress is? Anyway, you can't go anywhere today, just follow us."
“…” Shen Wangshu pulled his arm out of her arms: “I still have things to do, I don’t have time to play with you.”
