Chapter 113: After Falling Overboard
Zheng Lingyi's fall into the water made Shen Qin feel very guilty.
So Zheng Lingyi was arranged in her yard, and she was given a high bed and soft pillows, so that she could rest overnight.
Before Princess Ping could speak, she asked Shen Qin to glare at her, and their mother and daughter were equally strong.
However, Princess Ping is strong on the surface, Shen Qin is strong on the inside, if she is serious about it, Princess Ping is mostly going to show weakness.
She knew that Shen Qin complained that she had sent someone to lure her away, but how did Princess Ping know that Zheng Lingyi would fall into the water? Only the craftsmen were instructed to repair the railings overnight to make up for one or two.
In the middle of the night, Shen Qin sent a servant to send a message to Princess Ping, saying that Zheng Lingyi did not fall into the water, but someone deliberately did it, and even named Princess Ping to stay away from the female dependents of the Lu Mansion in the future, and her heart was sinister and could not be intersected.
"It's the Qi family and her concubine who came to the Lu Mansion today, right?" Princess Ping thought for a moment and said.
"Yes." The servant who was beside replied.
Princess Ping sighed tiredly, got up from her chair and prepared to go to the inner room to rest.
The servant hurriedly stepped forward to help, only to hear her say lightly: "Lu Mansion is also in the sunset, remember to cross it off the roster when you hold a banquet in the future, it is not a tight family." ”
Zheng Lingyi didn't have real evidence, and Shen Qin just heard her say this, Kelu Mansion is now dispensable in Princess Ping's social circle, so he didn't bother to bother to check it.
After this farce, King Ping's mansion gradually calmed down, and the male and female guests also returned to their respective homes, only Zheng Lingyi and Lu Nong stayed here.
Shen Qin was very relaxed in her yard, unlike Zheng Yanru, these maids around her were obviously pinched in her own hands, this kind of free atmosphere, Zheng Lingyi could feel it.
"So, you've been using yellow powder to cover up your face all these years?" Shen Qin felt very curious, and with Zheng Lingyi's permission, he touched her face from time to time.
Zheng Lingyi was wearing a plain white shirt, and was gently pinched by Shen Qin's cheeks, and nodded helplessly, like a cute snow rabbit.
"Your skin is really good, it's so beautiful." Shen Qin couldn't help but admire.
The candlelight reflected on the faces of the two young girls, one of whom was profound, undulating, and full of heroism; One has skin like cream, picturesque eyebrows, and a hint of clarity.
"Madame will definitely know about this, can my sister think of a way to deal with it?" Lu Nong also changed into clean clothes from Chunshui, and said to Zheng Lingyi with some concern.
Zheng Lingyi concealed his beauty in order not to show up in front of the Lu family, but now he is exposed to the eyes of the ladies in the capital.
Why did a concubine do this, people with a little bit of brains will know the reason when they think about it, but they are afraid that the Lu family is already mad now.
"If you want to blame your aunt on the head, what kind of femme fatale, I also have to let my mother go and tell the Zeng family, don't really marry such a poisonous woman back!" Shen Qin said impatiently.
She was most annoyed by these intrigues, and if anyone dared to provoke her, she would whip them all the way.
Zheng Ling thought a little more, and said: "Although she has betrayed her with a weak heart, there is no real evidence. ”
"Really?" Shen Qin sneered, "This is in my mansion, how much 'real evidence' is necessary." ”
Her way of doing this made Midori's eyes widen, but she was also full of gratitude.
Zheng Lingyi looked at Shen Qin stunned, lowered his eyes and smiled, and said, "Sister, you are so good to me." ”
Shen Qin just wanted to open his mouth to appease, but saw Zheng Lingyi shook his head, and said seriously: "But if you do this, the Qi family will be forced to a corner, and then the dog will jump over the wall and bite you back, our evidence is false, if it is pulled out, it will affect you, I am absolutely unwilling." ”
Shen Qin sighed and said, "That's it, let's not mention this for the time being." As soon as it dawns tomorrow, the gossip in the capital will not stop. You have to hold on, don't do anything stupid. ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Lingyi looked at Lu Nong and said, "If I asked you to bring it to Wu Rouxiang, did you bring it?" ”
Lu Nong hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the pedal in front of the bed and said to Zheng Lingyi: "The slave and maid have said it." ”
"How did she react?"
"Through the curtain, there was not a word."
Zheng Lingyi's heart was half cold, and he heard Lu Nong hurriedly add: "Sister, before the slave maid went to see the little lady, I saw the Wu family's brother walking away in front of the little lady's carriage, and I don't know what he said to the little lady. ”
'Wu punished. Zheng Lingyi silently recited his name in his heart, feeling a little relieved.
"Yes, your eldest sister-in-law and him are sisters and brothers." Shen Qin said it, and felt that something was wrong, although they were sisters and brothers, they were sisters and brothers like enemies.
Everyone was silent, and at this time, Chunshui walked in with a bowl of hot soothing tea, and said to Zheng Lingyi: "Sister, drink Ansheng tea and go to sleep." Tomorrow's business will be talked about tomorrow. ”
Lu Nong took the soothing tea and coaxed softly, "Sister, drink it." ”
Zheng Lingyi looked at Lu Nong, and saw that her big pure eyes were full of tenderness, thinking that she was so protective of herself in front of people tonight, if it reached Lu Shi's ears, she would definitely know that Lu Nong had defected, and she didn't know how to torture her when the time came.
Zheng Lingyi took the soothing tea and drank it all, as if she was drinking a bowl of spirits, she said to Lu Nong: "Early tomorrow morning, the Lu family will definitely come to pick me up, don't go back with me, go to Ziyu Lane to find them to help you hide." ”
Lu Nong's eyes turned red and he couldn't speak, only shaking his head vigorously.
Shen Qin was puzzled, and Zheng Lingyi explained briefly, "She was originally sent to me by the Lu family. ”
Shen Qin's throat was a little blocked, and Chunshui was also wiping tears on the side, all moved by the affection between the two of them.
"Don't worry, I'll help send Lu Nong out, but what about you? What do you do? ”
Shen Qin saw that Zheng Lingyi was planning so carefully, and she might have seen the difficult situation at home, and couldn't help but be a little more worried.
"Now that the Lu family is in decline, the Lu family's confidence is also weak, it is not as good as before, it may not be good for me, take a gamble."
The delicate girl was trapped in the soft futon, looking weak and deceitful, but when she spoke, she had a ruthless intention to draw her sword.
The tranquilizing tea gradually had some effect, and Zheng Lingyi's efforts to open his eyes made Shen Qin laugh.
"County Lord, let's go out." Spring is on the sidelines.
After Shen Qin went out, Lu Nong blew out the candle after a while. Darkness and silence wrapped around the two of them, and Lu Nong sat on the pedal wrapped in a soft quilt, holding Zheng Lingyi's soft hand.
Thinking that Zheng Lingyi might die tonight, and was afraid that this emotion would suddenly crush her, Lu Nong wanted to cry, so he buried his face in the crook of his arm to block his tears and crying.
Zheng Lingyi gently shook her hand back, raised her head with hazy tears, and heard Zheng Lingyi say in a daze: "Go to bed and sleep." ”
No rules and etiquette can compare to the dependence and comfort that the master and servant need.
The difficulties of this night were not only for Zheng Lingyi, but also for Lu's.
I don't know if Wu Rouxiang took the wrong medicine, as soon as she came back, she went straight to the outer courtyard to find Zheng Guogong, and she talked back to protect Zheng Lingyi everywhere, and said that Qi's pushed Zheng Lingyi into the water, and also hindered Lu Nong from saving people.
Today's Zheng Lingyi matter is not as good as before, no matter how much the Lu family abused the concubine in the past, it was only in the inner house, and she also had the ability to hide the matter, but today's matter is in an uproar, and the whole city knows about it.
Zheng Guogong's anger is no longer something that Lu can extinguish in a few words.
He walked fast, and the robe he raised could almost cut through the blades of grass on the side of the road, and Wu Rouxiang was so fragrant that Cui Weaving could support him, and he could keep up with him by trotting all the way.
Suddenly, Zheng Guogong paused, Wu Rouxiang caught up, looked at his iron-green face cautiously, and said, "Father-in-law, what's wrong?" ”
"You just said that it was your brother-in-law who saved Fifteen?"
"Yes, it's the one who lived in the house for a while."
As soon as he heard that it was the concubine whose biological mother's reputation was festering and his bloodline had been questioned, Zheng Guogong closed his eyes in despair and said with difficulty: "You should go back now and discuss the marriage of the two of them with your father, just say that it was decided in private earlier, but it was not announced." ”
Wu Rouxiang understood what he meant as soon as she heard it, Zheng Guogong didn't give her a chance to refuse at all, and after giving the order, she continued to stride to settle accounts with the Lu family.
"Sister, what Grandpa Guo said is also a method, it is not good for the reputation of the Guogong Mansion to make a big fuss, you are now the young lady of the Guogong Mansion. Let's go. Cui Zhi saw Wu Rouxiang stunned in place, and said.
"How could I not understand!?" Wu Rouxiang was entangled in her heart, and couldn't help but reprimand loudly: "How did that kid threaten me, you didn't hear it!" How did he know about the past? Besides, he is willing to do this for this girl of fifteen, obviously he is not interested in her for a day or two. But when they hooked up and how long they hooked up, we don't know! These two people have the same insidious temperament, and letting Fifteen marry into the Wu family wouldn't it add two troubles to my mother!? ”
Wu Rouxiang was about to collapse, and she couldn't even stand steadily, Cuizhi hurriedly hugged her and said, "Sister, the slave knows the worries in your heart. But fifteen, this girl still needs to be safe in the Lu Mansion, and even if that kid returns to the Wu Mansion now, he still has no place in the mansion. Don't think too much about it, maybe that kid just took advantage of this matter and wanted to climb a family business, after all, he has such a reputation, and people like Guogongfu are afraid that even a decent girl will not want to marry him! ”
Wu Rouxiang took a few deep breaths and trembled, "What you say is reasonable. The matter at the moment is important, otherwise it will not please both ends, and when this matter is quiet, I will let my mother clean up that kid for me! I can clean it up once, I don't believe I can't clean it up a second time! ”
This sound of falling water sounded from the Pingwang Mansion to the Guogong Mansion, and then from the Guogong Mansion to the Wu Mansion.
Coupled with the secretly happy mother and daughter of Lufu, today is very lively, and there are many good shows, but I don't know what kind of situation will evolve tomorrow after a night of brewing.
