"yes, I didn't even know that you couldn't sleep in my room, but you could sleep when you went to the magpie!" The cuckoo said angrily. She wanted to rush in when she saw him and the magpie outside the house yesterday, but the magpie was her own sister after all, and if she went in, she would completely tear her face, so she endured it, and didn't want him to get worse and go out for a longer time.

"Cuckoo, I'...... Cuckoo, listen to me! He looked anxious, but in his heart it was a different story.

He had long known that she was suspicious of him, and deliberately offered to go to bed early, and her suspicion would be even heavier. He knew that she was not asleep, but he pretended to be sneaky and slipped out, and deliberately slowed down, afraid that she would not be able to keep up. He didn't expect her to rush in to catch him, but would only question him herself, or pretend she didn't know. Either way, he promised that after three times in a row, she wouldn't go out again the fourth time to make herself blocked.

"Well, I'd like to hear what you say? Is her bed more comfortable than mine? If that's the case, then I'll go and exchange it with her tomorrow! Even though she now suspects that he is not right, her feelings for him are true, and now that she sees him sleeping with the magpie again, it is false to say that she is not sad or angry. This man is her husband, but his heart is not hers, and his body is not hers.

"Cuckoo, I'...... I...... I'm a man, and you won't let me touch it now that you're pregnant, I'm ...... Magpie she is young and beautiful, and hints at me, so I ...... I...... I couldn't hold back for a moment and ......"

"You bastard!" Cuckoo picked up the pillow in her hand and smashed it on him, glaring at him angrily, panting for breath, although his reason was shameless, she had no words to refute it. The wife of a large family is pregnant, and will also arrange a maid for her husband, and due to its particularity, the owners of the village in the past generations rarely have concubines.

What could she say, ask him why he was looking for a magpie, and know without asking, because the magpie likes him and is beautiful. Ask him why he didn't ask himself to find a maid who has a room, wouldn't that be a blockage for himself? In this matter, she can only suffer a dumb loss, and can only solve it with two people behind closed doors, and the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, if the matter is big, it will be a big joke, and no one will look good.

She can only turn a blind eye, she can't go to confront the magpie, let her stay away from him in the future, she has no sister, she can't lose another sister, and if he doesn't change his thief's heart, even if there is no magpie, he will find someone else. It was impossible for her to tell him not to look for the magpie, she could, not to mention that she was pregnant now, and she felt dirty when she thought about it. He thought of Huang Ying, married himself, and slept with the magpie, and she felt sick at the thought of letting him touch her again.

Thinking of this, she retched again. Fan Mingen hurriedly picked up the spittoon on the side, helped her stroke her back, and when she finished throwing up, he picked up a wet cloth towel to wipe it clean for her.

"You go out, I don't have to worry about you." The cuckoo turned his head not to look at him.

"Cuckoo, you are my wife, how can I leave you alone? And where do you want me to go, I have nowhere to go but here. ”

"You can ......," she said she said you could go to the magpie, but she swallowed again.

"Cuckoo, I know it's my fault, I'm sorry for you, you can beat me or scold me. But I've made a mistake, I can't turn back time, but I can make up for it, you can do whatever you want me to do, you're still pregnant, don't hurt yourself. ”

"You don't have to go to her again." The cuckoo closed his eyes and said weakly.

"Okay, I promise you, I won't go to her in the future." Fan Mingen was granted amnesty.

The cuckoo nodded and lay down silently, to be honest she didn't believe it, but what could she do if she didn't believe it, she was already married to him and pregnant with his child, she didn't know what else she could do.

Three days later, Fan Mingen repeated his old tricks and went to the magpie's room again, but the cuckoo still didn't give up, so he followed, and went back silently when he saw that the door was closed and the lights were turned off. She lit the lamp and studied the pattern on the strange piece of paper she had seen last time. She had lost hope for Fan Mingen, and she was now desperate to find out what he was up to. Only by exposing his conspiracy can this matter be completely resolved.

She stared at the dots and crosses on the paper, always feeling a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, and she couldn't remember it for a while. Seeing that the time was almost up, she destroyed the paper and lay down on the bed and pretended to be asleep. It didn't take long for her to hear the door open, and soon someone lay down beside her. She rolled over to keep herself away from him.

In the afternoon of the next day, Liu Zhuang came to see the cuckoo.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Since she and Fan Mingen got married, except for the second day of the wedding, she has not met her father outside of dinner time.

"Did Minen leave last night?"

"Huh? Not...... No......" Cuckoo said in a humble heart, she can't tell the truth.

"How can you talk about it, don't help him hide it from me!" Master Liu saw at a glance that something was wrong with her.

"I've been going to bed early lately, so I don't know if he went out later, but I'm also prone to waking up, I didn't hear any movement last night, so he probably hasn't gone out. Dad, what's wrong? ”

"Last night, someone entered the ancestral hall, and although that person was cautious, he still left some traces, which had never happened before."

Du Juan understood, his father had to go to the ancestral hall every morning to offer incense, and the ancestral hall was locked at other times, and there were no valuables in the ancestral hall, there would be no thieves, and there were no outsiders in Shuiyue Villa, and she would be suspicious of Fan Mingen if she changed. It's just that she saw what Fan Mingen did yesterday with her own eyes, and the time to come back was about the same as usual, it wouldn't be him.

Fan Mingen was dealing with his own affairs in the study at this time, and he was not worried that the matter would be revealed at all. He had done so much foreshadowing for this day, just to let the cuckoo and magpie make an alibi for himself.

If he really wanted to find the magpie, he could have sneaked around, but he deliberately let the cuckoo find out. He knew very well that the cuckoo would not reveal the matter, and would not go to the magpie to ask if the time of the magpie he left was the same as the time he returned. In the past, every time he was in love with the magpie, he would get tired of it for a while or fight a second time, but last night, he was in a hurry, and then left in a hurry for fear that the cuckoo would suspect this reason, and turned to the ancestral hall. It's just that in the ancestral hall, he only saw a genealogy and didn't find any other valuable clues.

After that, every three or four days, he would still go to look for the magpies, and the time of his return was uncertain. But every time he looked for a magpie, he would go somewhere else. Every time the magpie was with him, he was also excited and guilty, and he always said something affectionate to make her heart bump into him, and she couldn't bear to refuse him anymore.

"The gate of heaven is interrupted, and the Chu River is opened, and the green mountains on both sides of the strait are opposite each other." Fan Mingen was standing on a small island, he didn't understand the meaning of these two poems, and he had been here for so long, but he still hadn't found the slightest clue. He stripped off his clothes, stood naked in the moonlight, and slowly walked to the lake, submerging himself in the water.

A quarter of an hour later, he returned to shore, and although he had changed his breath several times on the way, he could not hold back anymore, and his physical exertion was great, so he had to come ashore. The water is also very ordinary, except that the water of the mirror lake is very clear, there is nothing special. Of course, he won't give up, and he will look at another island another day.

He took out a small bag from the crack in the stone, and in it was placed the cloth towel he had prepared a long time ago, and he had to wipe it clean, so that the cuckoo would not be suspicious. But when he turned around, he found someone standing behind him.

Du ...... Cuckoo ......"

"It turns out that you know water, you really deliberately designed to come to Shuiyue Villa, what is your purpose?"

"Cuckoo, you misunderstood, I just learned it recently, and I want to give you a surprise when I can't sleep. As the son-in-law of Shuiyue Villa, it's a bit embarrassing to not know water. Fan Mingen immediately regained his composure, and the lie came as soon as he opened his mouth.

"The magpie is the young lady of Shuiyue Villa, and she doesn't know water, so she is not ashamed."

"Okay, what are you going to do when you come out at night, it's windy here, let's go back first."

"Why go to the ancestral hall? Why attack the father? ”

"Cuckoo, what are you talking about?"

"You deliberately made me find out about your relationship with the magpie, didn't you? With your cleverness, you can completely hide it from me, you deliberately let me find out so that I can testify to you. The night you went to look for the magpie, someone entered the ancestral hall. The night my father was attacked, you went looking for the magpie, and you came back with an extra scratch, but I saw that the magpie had just cut his nails two days ago, and it was impossible to catch you like that, but my father said that he had poured hot tea on the man. The dots and crosses you draw in the study are not boring and random, they are maps of Mirror Lake. ”

"Cuckoo, what the hell do you want to say?" With a fierce glint in his eyes, he slowly approached her.

The cuckoo sensed a hint of danger and said, "Ming'en, a husband and wife for a day, maybe you married me just to take advantage of me, but I am sincere to you." I don't know what you're here for, but you can tell me. Our husband and wife are one, as long as you don't hurt my family and don't shake the foundation of Shuiyue Villa, I can give you whatever you want, and go with you to find the answer. If you can't tell me, that's okay, I don't know, but can you look at me and my children, stop doing things that hurt us, and stop thinking about anything else, and live a good life as a family. ”

As she spoke, tears flowed down her cheeks, as she said, no matter how many things he did that made her sad, it was true that she loved him, so she was willing to marry him and have children for him.

"Cuckoo......" Fan Mingen stepped forward and hugged her in his arms, "I was wrong, I promise you, for the sake of our children, we will live a good life in the future." You ......," he turned to avoid her attack, "what are you doing?" ”

"Mingen, I know that you are a very stubborn person, you promised me so easily, just to stabilize me, but what I said is true, as long as you can't do anything to hurt us anymore, I won't dislike you, let's live a good life."

"This is the day you want, not the day I want!"

Fan Mingen shot at the cuckoo, but the cuckoo pulled out the whip behind him, but he grabbed it, he stepped forward, wrapped the whip around her neck, and slowly tightened the whip.

"You...... How do you ......"

"Your three-legged cat's kung fu is no match for me, if you are a little better, I don't want to hurt you. But you want me to become a puppet at your mercy, so you might as well die. ”

With more strength in his hand, the cuckoo began to struggle, gradually ceasing to move.
