599, forced to laugh
After lunch, the happy atmosphere still persists.
Although Su Lingxiao still had a lot to say, considering his physical condition, Gu Qianxue drove him back to rest early.
Everyone couldn't get enough of this delicious barbecue, and they praised it again and again. Even a few old and stubborn painters and masters forgot that they were overqualified. The most despised bright colors are brushed against the wall.
At night, when Gu Qianxue returned to the Shangshu Mansion, she realized she was exhausted.
"Princess, you're having a great day today, and the maidservant is still in a very happy mood." Yu Cui couldn't help but said.
Gu Qianxue nodded, "Call me when the bath water is ready, I'll go lie down for a while."
After returning to the room, Gu Qianxue didn't have the daytime smile on her face, but she was full of thoughts.
She lay flat on the bed, staring blankly at the top of the bed curtain embroidered with blooming flowers, but her misty eyes seemed to see other things from the pattern, she just stared at it for a long time without even blinking. .
With a sigh, she closed her eyes, but the slight frown revealed the patience in her heart.
"Princess," Yu Cui whispered, "Is the princess asleep? Elder sister, what if the princess falls asleep?"
Yulian said, "Then don't spare the Princess, let's go and get a quilt to cover her."
Before Yulian finished speaking, she saw Gu Qianxue turn over and jump out of bed, "I haven't slept or slept, let's go take a shower," with a sunny smile on his face, "Have you put the petals? Have you put the essential oil?" ? You need to put a lot of essential oils, the Princess likes that smell."
Yulian smiled and said, "Let it go, let it go, the princess can rest assured."
Accompanied by the girls laughing like silver bells, the three of them went to the bathroom, but they were gone in the room, leaving only loneliness.
the other side.
Xue house.
Xue Xufeng, who was dressed in a sky-blue silk gown, helped Mrs. Pei into the room, "It's Taishan's birthday today, Madam has worked hard herself, it's really hard, take a break."
Mrs. Pei walked into the room slowly and sat on a chair, "Working is a must. I owe my father too much, and it makes my mother worry too much. I... Hey." As he spoke, he lowered his eyes.
In fact, she didn't have to go to battle in person, but she wanted to see how Gu Shangshu was being made difficult. Unfortunately, Gu Shangshu said he was sick and didn't come.
She loves her deeply and hates her so much that in the end, Pei Shi didn't know whether she was disappointed because she didn't see Gu Shangshu making a fool of herself, or because she was disappointed because she didn't see Gu Shangshu.
Since getting married, Xue Xufeng has always treated her very well, the same as before, but Mrs. Pei can't find the feeling of husband and wife, and still feels like a master and a slave. If time can go back... If time can go back, she doesn't know what she should do.
Xue Xufeng is a shrewd person. He grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion as the son of a staff member since he was a child, and he has an innate ability to read people's eyes. In addition, after serving the Pei family for many years, I understand it to the bottom of my heart.
He made a lot of guesses about Pei's psychology, and cursed in his heart—this bitch who doesn't know what to do, Gu Qingze doesn't care about you at all, but you are thinking about it, and Xue Xufeng is serving him wholeheartedly, but she turns a blind eye. It's really sad. gas!
Fortunately, he didn't put his mind on Pei Shi either, Pei Shi was just a step on his way forward after all.
A servant girl's voice came from outside the door, "Master, madam, the nourishing soup is here."
There was a gloomy look in Xue Xufeng's eyes, and then he smiled and let go of Mrs. Pei, "Ma'am, wait a moment, I will fetch it for you." As he spoke, he personally took the soup bowl from the maidservant.
Pei refused, "Xufeng, can I not drink this soup? This soup always has a...strange smell." I didn't feel it when I drank it, but after an hour in my stomach, I just wanted to hiccup, the smell was really unpleasant .
Xue Xufeng's voice was soft, "Drink it, ma'am, the medicine tastes bad! You have been restless recently, and you are really worried about your husband. You can sleep well after drinking it."
Pei Shi finally nodded, took the bowl, pinched his nose and drank it.
It was late at night, Mrs. Pei didn't leave Xue Xufeng to sleep peacefully in the room, and Xue Xufeng didn't insist, he comforted him a few times before leaving.
There are two reasons why Mrs. Pei did not keep Xue Xufeng to sleep. One is that after drinking Anshen Decoction, I will hiccup an hour later, and the smell of hiccups is really unpleasant. But this is not the most important thing, the main reason is the second - she doesn't want to share the bed with Xue Xufeng, even though they are married, she still feels that Xue Xufeng is just her servant, so there is a reason for the master and the servant to sleep together
What's more, as long as he thinks of sleeping with Xue Xufeng, he can't help but think of the past when he was framed.
——For this marriage, Mrs. Pei does not agree, and she can't say that she likes Xue Xufeng much. The only reason I agreed was because I did it on my own will in the last marriage, and this time I didn't want to reject my parents again.
On the other side, Xue Xufeng left the room, his gentle expression was gone, his face was extremely cold.
"Master." The confidant butler hurried forward, "Is the master in the study tonight or...?"
Xue Xufeng snorted coldly, "Go to another courtyard."
"Yes, master, the car is at the back door." In the darkness, the butler waited for Xue Xufeng to go out the back door, got into the pony carriage, and headed west.
other courtyard.
Just as Qiao Niang was about to fall asleep with her son in her arms, she heard a servant come to report that the master had arrived.
Qiaoniang hurriedly handed the child to the nanny and took him to another room to sleep, dressed herself, arranged her makeup, and went out to greet him.
"Master, are you ready for dinner?" The skinny Ma Qiaoniang who has been specially trained can naturally see that Xue Xufeng's face is unhappy, and she will definitely not ask him why he is unhappy, otherwise it will be very easy to get angry, but use other topics, "Zixuan I just fell asleep, and I refused to go to bed today no matter what, saying that Daddy would come, I still didn’t believe it, but I didn’t expect the master to really come tonight. People say that mother and child are connected, but in our family, father and son are connected.”
Sure enough, when mentioning his son, Xue Xufeng's mood improved a lot, "Where is Zixuan, are you asleep?"
Qiao Niang hurriedly said, "Sleep is sleep, but if you wake up now, Zixuan must be very happy to see the master."
Xue Xufeng was in a better mood, and reached out to hold Qiaoniang in his arms, "Forget it, the child is growing up, so it's not good to disturb sleep."
The two entered the room, the lights were turned off, and soon came the voice of Xixi, mixed with Qiaoniang's panting.
But after a while, Xue Xufeng, who was fighting hard, said, "Don't worry, my dear, you will soon be able to enter the mansion as an aunt, and that bitch will die soon."
Qiao Niang was taken aback, "What?"
Xue Xufeng smiled sinisterly, "That bitch drank the poisonous soup for a few days, and her body became weaker and weaker. After a few days, she couldn't get up. When the time comes, I will send someone to let the news out. The prime minister's wife must be afraid that I will abandon the bitch and take the initiative to do it for you." I take a concubine, and I will bring you into the mansion when the time comes, as for Zixuan, I have other arrangements."
