Chapter 186: Self-inflicted humiliation
The house was finally quiet.
I don't know how long it took...... Mama An pushed the door from outside and walked in, looked at Du Rongzhi, who was still sitting on the bed, and stepped forward and called in a low voice, "Young lady......"
Du Rongzhi didn't move, her eyes were still looking straight at the pattern of melons on the quilt.
Mama An's nose was sore, and she hurriedly lowered her head and picked up the clothes that Song Zixun had thrown aside from the end of the bed and draped them on her naked back.
Du Rongzhi seemed to wake up like a dream at this time, and her eyes slowly turned to her.
The woman's quiet little face no longer had the unique touching luster of every love affair, but became more and more pale and colorless under the reflection of the candle flame.
"Mama......" Du Rongzhi looked at Mama An in a daze, and showed a faint smile at her in a trance, "You're here." β
"Hey......" Mama An hurriedly responded, and reluctantly smiled, "The hot water has been prepared, can the young lady take a bath now?" β
Du Rongzhi turned a deaf ear, and after a while, she asked softly, "What's going on with the Fu family?" β
"What else!" Mama An was very sad when she came to see Du Rongzhi's appearance, and she was even more angry when she heard the words, "I shouted that my stomach hurts - but I just invited two imperial doctors, and no one can say why!" Mama An smacked on the ground as she spoke, and scolded, "It must be that black-hearted and rotten prostitute who is acting as a demon again, deliberately hooking the master over!" β
Du Rongzhi listened quietly, and curled the corners of her lips indifferently, "...... It's okay...... it's okay," she was silent for a moment, and then she remembered, "What did Mama just ask me?" β
Mama An sighed and asked in a low voice, "The hot water is ready, and the slave maid also asked someone to put a medicine bag in it...... Do you want to take a dip in the young lady? β
Du Rongzhi bowed slightly, "Tell them to bring in." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The tub was quickly delivered.
The steaming heat smoked the woman's pale little face, and soon it was dyed a layer of red...... Du Rongzhi took the soaked handkerchief and slowly rubbed it on her body.
Her expression was quiet and serene, and her movements were as calm and elegant as ever, but her delicate skin was already bruised, and the original ambiguous marks were hidden in this bruise, which became more and more shocking because she rubbed too hard.
But she was still not enough, and the handkerchief rubbed the deep and shallow kiss marks......
I don't know how much time passed, until the hot water in the tub was cold, she got up from it casually.
β¦β¦ Mama Ann is still guarding outside the clean room.
Du Rongzhi's unusually calm performance towards Fu tonight made her faintly worried, and she wanted to follow up and serve but was refused, so she had to wait uneasily outside.
What kind of character the young lady is, others may not understand, but she is a nurse very clearly: although her own girl is a little willful, her heart is the softest and simplest. If she likes someone, she really likes it, even if she takes out her heart to others, she can be happy...... But the eldest young master stabbed her in the heart again and again for the sake of that slut of the Fu family......
If the young lady can still cry like before, or complain to herself, Mama An can feel better.
But she didn't have anything.
It's as if I don't care about anything anymore......
Mama An thought worriedly, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that a long time had passed, and she was about to ask Du Rongzhi if she had finished grooming, when she heard the voice of the latter getting up.
Mama An hurriedly put away the look on her face and walked into the clean room, picked up a change of clothes from the side of the pestle and wanted to put them on for her, but she stayed on the spot the moment she looked up and saw Du Rongzhi-
The woman's snow-white skin was covered with large and small bruises, and in some places there were even blood oozing out because of too much rubbing, and cold water droplets dripped down her delicate body, which was indescribably hideous and terrifying.
"Less...... Young lady ......"
Du Rong Zhiyun smiled lightly, "It's dirty." She wiped off the water droplets on her body, took the shirt from Mama An's hand and put it on her body, "But it's already clean...... It's good to be clean. β
Mama An's eyes turned red, "Young lady, why is this so difficult?" She burst into tears of distress, "The slave knows that you are wronged...... But you ...... like this Why can't you tell you? Now he thinks you don't care, even if you go to Fu's place, you're a little ashamedβ"
"Mama." Du Rongzhi interrupted suddenly, and her cold little hand covered her wrist.
"There's no next time." She said in a very light tone, "In the future, I will not humiliate myself again." β
Never again.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Du Rongzhi didn't sleep well at night, and was woken up by Qinghe the next morning.
Because she had to serve Song Zixun for dinner, Du Rongzhi simply freshened up and went to the dining room.
β¦β¦ Inside, Song Zixun had already arrived one step ahead of her, and was drinking porridge slowly and methodically under Fu Jingrou's service.
"The concubine is late, please forgive me." Du Rongzhi stepped forward with a smile and bowed towards him.
She changed into a goose-yellow Luo skirt today, and the delicate color set off her more delicate than flowers, fresh and lovely.
Song Zixun's gaze lingered on Du Rongzhi's face for a moment, seeing that she looked calm, and didn't seem to be unhappy because of her departure last night, she was relieved and a little lost at the same time, and raised her hand, "I just arrived, sit down and use it together." He motioned for her to sit down beside him.
Du Rongzhi answered with a smile, and just sat down, when she saw Fu Jingrou, who was still standing beside Song Zixun, stepped forward timidly, and whispered, "Last night, the concubine was unwell, which disturbed the young lady's rest...... I also hope that the young lady will forgive her sins. β
Du Rongzhi smiled kindly, "My sister is serious...... You are pregnant with the eldest young master's heir, and nothing is more important than your body now. If you feel uncomfortable, you must say it immediately, but you must not delay. As he spoke, he asked with concern, "What happened yesterday?" Even I was bluffed. β
Fu Jingrou pursed her lips embarrassedly, and said softly, "I don't know what's wrong with the concubine, just for a while, my stomach suddenly hurt like a needle ......prick," she said and glanced at Song Zixun shyly and timidly, "Fortunately, the eldest young master has been accompanying the concubine, otherwise the concubine is so scared that she doesn't know what to do." β
Du Rongzhi smiled slightly, and was about to speak, when Song Zixun cleared his throat and said lightly, "Let's eat." As he spoke, he sandwiched a piece of shortbread into Du Rongzhi's plate, "This cake is well done today, crispy and delicious, you can also taste it." β
"Thank you." Du Rongzhi smiled and thanked her, a cold color flashed in her eyes, and she disappeared in an instant.
