Flowers float by themselves, water flows by themselves
"Tuk Tuk Tuk."
"Little sister, open the door."
Jin, who was wrapped tightly, was moved, and Nangong Jingnu raised a quilt: "Second sister, go back, I'm fine!"
Nangong Shunv heard her little sister's crying voice, and felt distressed: "little sister is obedient, the second sister has already sent all the servants back, and there is only myself in the whole yard, you open the door!"
Nangong Jingnu sniffed, "Second sister~."
"I've been out of shape these days, won't my little sister let me in and sit?"
Nangong Jingnu lifted the quilt, got out of the bed barefooted, went to the door, pushed the latch, and ran to the bed, grabbed the quilt and wrapped herself.
Nangong Shunv pushed open the door and happened to see the last scene.
She walked to the bed and caressed the bulging part of the quilt, and said softly, "The weather is boring these days, don't suffocate yourself."
Nangong Jingnu suddenly burst into tears and pulled the quilt tightly: "Second sister, Qi Yan bullied me!"
Nangong Shu Nu's expression froze, thinking of her own experience: "Brother-in-law, he... little sister."
Thinking of Qi Yan holding her without pity and saying such strange things, Nangong Jingnu cried more and more sad.
Nangong Shu Nu's face turned pale: "He really forced you?"
In her opinion, Qi Yan's behavior last night was forcing herself, but Nangong Shunv asked another question.
"Um!"
Nangong Shu's silver teeth clenched: Why are their sisters' lives so hard? It's nothing more than what she entrusted to her. I didn't expect that Qi Yan, who looked so gentle and graceful, was also a beast in clothes, and she said a good word for that person in vain.
The reason why the little sister held the lamp last night was more or less due to the persuasion of herself and the elder sister.
Nangong Jingnu cried for a while, only to realize that there was no movement around her.
"Hiccup, second sister?"
no answer.
Nangong Jingnu owed a seam to the quilt and found that Nangong Shunv was no longer there.
Nangong Shunv left the main hall and went straight to the study.
According to Nangong Shunv's previous temperament, at most, she would stay to comfort Nangong Jingnv and accompany her for a few days.
After all, Qi Yan is a foreign minister and a man, so he should avoid suspicion according to the etiquette.
Today is different from the past. The things that Lu Zhongxing forced on her are still a lingering shadow. I don't know how many nights there are unbearable memories even in dreams.
Nangong Shunv knew that she came from a humble background, her grandfather's family foundation was weak, and her mother's status was low.
Although Jing Nu was a younger sister, she did not know how many times she had protected her older sister.
When he was forced to cry by Lu Zhongxing and complained that he had nowhere to go, only this younger sister stayed by his side.
Today, it's time for me to take on my sister's responsibility!
Nangong Shunv came to the study, and there was no maid in the courtyard.
She stopped in front of the door, took a deep breath, and pushed open the door of the study.
Qi Yan's wrist flicked, and the page that was written in just a few words was wasted.
Nangong Shunv strode to the front of the case, picked up the water cup, but was still bound by her tutor, and only poured it on Qi Yan's book case.
"Shameless!"
The more than fifty pages of manuscripts Qi Yan wrote overnight were piled on the side of the case, soaked with water and blurred.
She pursed her lips, put down the brush and slowly raised her head.
Seeing Qi Yan's face, Nangong Shu Nu was stunned.
Qi Yan's eyes were flushed, a scar on the left side of her cheek was on her cheek, and her right cheek was red and swollen.
Qi Yan stood up straight, stared at Nangong Shu Nu's eyes and said nothing.
After a night of adjustment, Qi Yan regained her composure.
Those amber eyes were calm, without a trace of anger, they just looked at Nangong Shun so indifferently.
Faced with this kind of gaze, Nangong Shunv's momentum was slightly weaker, and she straightened her waist and said, "It is a blessing that you have cultivated for three generations to marry a little sister. How can you treat her like this?"
Qi Yan lowered her eyes, raised her arms and bowed: "Second sister taught me."
Nangong Shunv didn't expect Qi Yan to be like this, she felt a little angry but hit the cotton, and she didn't know how to say it.
She glared at Qi Yan angrily, threw the water glass on the table with a "bang", and walked away.
Qi Yan sat back and silently picked up the manuscript soaked in water, page by page, and turned to the end, more than 50 pages could not be used.
Even though some manuscripts were only stained with a few drops of water at the corners, Qi Yan would never allow the slightest flaw in these manuscripts, so she simply used this pile of waste paper to dry the water stains on the desk and tossed it aside.
Raise your left hand to support the abacus on the small case, and return the bead on it...
Except for Qi Yan, no one knew why the abacus appeared here, nor what the beads on it recorded.
Nangong Shunv returned to the main hall, and saw Nangong Jingnv sitting on the bed blankly, her blue silk was scattered, her clothes were messy, and her eyes were red and swollen.
Xu was covered in the quilt for a long time, dripping with sweat.
Nangong Shunv was deeply distressed: I had known that I should have given up my education just now, and I would scold Qi Yan again!
"Little sister."
Nangong Jingnu called out in a hoarse voice, "Second sister."
Nangong Jingnu got into the arms of the second sister: "I thought the second sister was also tired of me and went back to the house."
Nangong Shunv stroked Nangong Jingnv's back lightly and coaxed, "How could it be? Second sister is going to vent her anger on you."
Nangong Jingnu said in astonishment, "Second sister went to find Qi Yan?"
"Don't worry, the second sister has already vented your anger. Let Qiu Ju prepare the soup spring, bathe and change clothes, and live in my house for a few days."
The hand that hit Qi Yan last night was clenched, a little lack of confidence.
Nangong Shunv let out a long sigh, "I'll accompany you to take a bath. You must tell the second sister where it hurts, and don't hide it."
Nangong Jingnu sniffed and lifted her cuffs: "Here..."
Nangong Shunv said sympathetically, "Second sister will wipe you down and drink alcohol for a while, where else?"
Nangong Jingnv bowed to Nangong Jingnv's arms: "No more."
Nangong Shunv was a little puzzled, but she just pretended that Nangong Jingnv was shy and refused to speak.
Tangquan was ready, Nangong Shunv ordered Qiu Ju to pack the luggage for Nangong Jingnv, and the two sisters came to Tangquan Hall.
"Second sister, go out. I can… "
"Be obedient, the second sister is not an outsider, show me."
Nangong Jingnv took off her clothes awkwardly and entered the soup spring. Nangong Shunv became more puzzled when she saw her sister's whiteness and flawlessness.
He scooped up hot water with a wooden spoon and poured it on her shoulders: "Little sister... does your waist hurt?"
Nangong Jingnu shook her head: "It doesn't hurt."
"...Last night, you... Didn't you say Qi Yan forced you?"
Nangong Jingnu lowered her head: "He overwhelmed me."
"… and then?"
"Pinch my wrist and kiss me..."
"Gone?"
"Um."
Nangong Shunv felt bad and asked hesitantly, "Why is my brother-in-law's face swollen?"
"Yes, I called it."
…
Nangong Shunv felt that a basin of cold water was pouring down on her head, and carefully asked about the details of last night.
Nangong Jingnu vented most of the resentment in her heart, and when she was asked about it, she inexplicably raised a feeling of "family ugliness must not be exposed."
She didn't know why Qi Yan said such a strange thing last night, but she vaguely felt that if she told the truth, it would definitely bring disaster to him.
I heard that Qi Yan wrote all night in the study, and the old Gao, whose face was swollen, was remorseful and distressed.
Even if the problem between them has not been resolved, they do not intend to let "outsiders" intervene.
After listening to her sister's reserved description, Nangong Shunv tapped Nangong Jingnv's forehead: "You still learn to sue the wicked first!"
"But… "
Thinking of Qi Yan's performance in the study, Nangong Shunv said with emotion: "My brother-in-law suffered so much grievance and didn't say a word of excuse. It's my palace's rudeness."
"What happened to him?"
Nangong Shu was so irritated: "You can ask yourself, Ben Gong is back."
Walking to the entrance of Tangquan Hall, Nangong Shunv turned back again, and persuaded her hard-heartedly before leaving.
Qi Yan wrote a few more manuscripts, recorded the number of words and finally put down the pen.
She slowly got up and stopped for a while according to the book table. She returned to the side hall to simply wash up and lay down on the bed.
In the main hall, Qiu Ju and Xia He quietly returned the salute they had collected before.
Nangong Jingnu was lying on the bed, with a clean cloth covering her eyes and a small bag of ice cubes on it.
"Third sister, you are no longer a child. Think carefully about how your brother-in-law has treated you since you got married, and there must be a measure of willfulness."
"If you don't want to give him your body, don't hold the lamp, and you won't be in the current situation."
"Bengong told you a long time ago that my brother-in-law has a miserable life, and you are the closest person to him in this world..."
Although he rubbed the wine, his wrist was still a little sore.
But Nangong Jingnu no longer blamed Qi Yan.
Even she herself felt incredible that no one dared to treat herself so rudely when she grew up.
But why, is it yourself who softens first
Although it is said that her daughter's house is made of water, she is not a weak person. Since she married Qi Yan, she can't even count how many times she cried.
Face to face with Qiyan, I can't always be "strong" and cry when I touch it.
Why? For the person who always makes you cry, but you have never felt disgust
Thinking about it, Nangong Jingnu's eyes became a little hot: you were rude and even though this palace beat you, it wasn't intentional.
Why didn't you come to coax me softly this time like before...
It's been one night and one whole day, as long as you say a few soft words, won't this palace forgive you
Nangong Jingnu bit her lip, the net cloth attached to her eyes was like a "fig cloth", tears overflowed again and were sucked by the net cloth.
It turned out that he always remembered the original "Gentleman's Covenant".
He had been expecting that Ben Gong would set him free, so did he say such a thing
But Ben Gong had difficulties at the beginning, how can you explain it so that you can understand
How can you say something so heavy as "go to hell with Ben Gong"
Is it...
Do you just take Ben Gong as a friend in your heart
Nangong Jingnv curled her lips aggrievedly: Although a gentleman is hard to chase after a word, but this palace is just a woman... can't it count for words
Qi Yan, Ben Gong has regretted it.
