"Second Miss!" Wu He was afraid that Ling Yan might get hurt, so he immediately ran over and helped her up.
"Get out!" Ling Yan felt very disgusted by the man's touch. She tried to push Wu He away, but she had no strength at all.
"Second Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Wu He was very anxious.
Ling Yan was in a daze. She consciously wanted to push Wu He away, but her body fell uncontrollably into his arms.
Wu He was a rough man, and he had no idea how to get along with such a delicate young lady, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "Second Miss, I'll carry you to the bed, and you should get some rest early..."
God knows how much room for interpretation such words could have on a wedding night.
After putting the person on the bed, Wu He wiped the sweat from his forehead and immediately wanted to stay away so as not to make the second young lady angry.
However, before he could leave, Ling Yan took the initiative to reach out and hook her arms around his neck...
With the sweet and soft beauty in his arms, the wife he had just married, Wu He couldn't help but move his Adam's apple and asked in confusion, "Second Miss?"
"Hmm..." Ling Yan no longer had the resistance she had just now, and clung to Wu He very enthusiastically.
"I told you, there's no reason to kick the groom out on their wedding night. It turns out the Second Miss is just shy!"
"It's already this late, and you're still calling me Second Miss? You should call me Sister-in-law!"
Everything happened naturally. The people who were eavesdropping outside looked at each other, smiled secretly and left.
"ah!"
The next day, around noon, Lingyan woke up, feeling sore all over, especially down there.
He looked down and saw the marks on his body. The scenes of last night flashed through his mind. He realized that he had lost his innocence and screamed in pain.
Wu He had woken up and packed up long ago, and had been watching Ling Yan eagerly. Upon hearing this, he immediately ran over and asked with concern, "My lady, what's wrong with you?"
Ling Yan covered herself with the quilt and slapped Wu He hard: "Asshole! How dare you touch me? I'll kill you!"
Wu He was stunned.
It was clearly the Second Miss who took the initiative last night, so he would...
Wu He was kicked out of the room and sat at the door of the new house, covering his red cheeks, feeling very depressed.
Wu Heniang heard the noise and rushed over to inquire about the situation. When she learned that her son had been driven out by his wife, she smiled and said:
"You, it must be you who made the Second Young Miss tired yesterday. You must be more careful next time. I heard that the ladies in the city are all very delicate and not as tough as those girls in our village."
After hearing what his mother said, Wu He suddenly realized that he had indeed lost control of himself last night. The second young lady seemed to have cried out in pain...
Wu He blushed: "I understand. I will definitely take care of the Second Young Miss in the future..."
Lingyan got angry and refused to go out. Whoever went to call her was beaten out by her.
She was sad about losing her innocence, but what made her saddest was her mother's scheme against her.
The reason she was like that last night was because of the incense burning in the room.
She had heard it with her own ears. It was her mother who gave the incense to the maid and told her to light it in the bridal chamber.
Her mother was so cruel. Not only did she force her to get married, she also planned to make her lose her virginity!
Wu He was newly married, and according to the rules, he had to kowtow to the head of the family to express his gratitude on the second day.
It was obvious that Ling Yan would not go out in this state, so Wu He had no choice but to go find Ling Xiang alone.
Ling Xiang dismissed the others, accepted Wu He's thanks, and said seriously:
"Steward Wu, your wife has been spoiled since she was a child and has a rather arrogant temper. You should bear as much as you can. But there is one thing you must remember: you must not let your wife interfere in the affairs of the manor. Otherwise, I don't mind replacing her."
Wu He quickly stated his stance: "Don't worry, Miss. I will never let the Second Miss suffer any injustice, nor will I let her worry about the affairs of the manor."
Ling Xiang shook her head. "A daughter who's married off is like spilled water. Wu He, remember, Ling Yan is now your daughter-in-law, Wu He. She's no longer the second daughter of the Ling family. She no longer enjoys any of the rights of a daughter of the Ling family."
Wu He never understood why he married the second lady for nothing.
But now, he understands.
"Don't worry, Miss. I understand. Lingyan will be the daughter-in-law of my Wu family from now on, and only the daughter-in-law of my Wu family."
For the whole day, all the food that Wu He's mother brought to Ling Yan was smashed by her, and she kept scolding them with ugly words. No matter how good Wu He's temper was, he would not tolerate Ling Yan treating his mother like this. He helped his mother leave and ignored Ling Yan.
Another day passed, and Ling Yan was still throwing a tantrum in the new house. No one paid any attention to her. Wu He's mother tried to go in and persuade her several times, but was stopped by Wu He:
"Once she marries me, she will be the daughter-in-law of my Wu family. My Wu family will not tolerate her temper!"
Another day, Ling Yan had no strength to attack, Wu He brought food to Ling Yan.
"No one's food is blown down by the wind. If you want to eat the Wu family's food, I will bring it to you every meal. If you don't want to eat it, I won't bring it to you today."
Ling Yan turned her head away and ignored Wu He's words.
Wu He's warm welcome was met with a cold reception. He walked out of the new house, closed the door, and went out to work without saying a word.
After a while, thinking that the meal was over, Wu He opened the door to collect the dishes. He found that Ling Yan had not touched her chopsticks, so he took the dishes away without saying anything.
Wu He did not appear again for the entire day.
When it was time for dinner, Lingyan smelled the delicious food outside and was so hungry that she couldn't help but look towards the door.
No one really brought her food.
Wu He's mother whispered outside, "Boss, why don't you go check on your wife and make sure she doesn't get too hungry."
Wu He's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for Ling Yan in the room to hear clearly: "She chose not to eat, so she must not be hungry. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
On the second day, Wu He brought food to Ling Yan again, and kindly placed it not far away from Ling Yan so that she wouldn't be out of reach. "If you still don't eat this meal, I won't bring it again today."
Eating is a human instinct. Lingyan was so hungry that she saw stars. Integrity and other things were nothing in the face of survival.
Wu He walked in again and the food was all gone.
He breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she was his wife. He would feel bad if she really starved to death.
"Would you like to eat lunch outside, or should I bring it to you?"
Ling Yan's eyes lost their light, and she sneered, "You won, are you happy? You married a lady from a wealthy family, isn't that very prestigious?"
Wu He said seriously, "My dear, since I've married you, I will treat you well for the rest of my life. You will have everything that other wives in the village have!"
Ling Yan looked down on the farmers from the bottom of her heart: "You are just that capable. You can only compare with the farmers on the farm."
Wu He was a little embarrassed by this and said with a stern face, "I know I am marrying above my station, but our marriage was arranged by my mother-in-law. It's a done deal. I hope you can accept it as soon as possible. I should have taken you home today, but you are like this... I will take you home tomorrow. You don't want your mother-in-law to worry about you, do you?"
