Chapter 75: Cure the unruly slaves (2)

Chapter 75: Punishing Diao Nu (2)

 Brother Zhi’s little face wrinkled up and he looked at Xiaoqing warily.

Xiaoqing asked secretly, didn’t this child live in the eldest lady’s yard for a while? Why does it seem like he has changed? But children are children, and no matter how they change, certain essential things cannot be changed. Xiaoqing smiled mysteriously: "Brother Zhi, the sister inside is pregnant with a little brother. She's very cute."

 Brother Zhi’s eyes suddenly widened.

Xiao Qing was overjoyed and continued to persuade: "If your aunt comes into the house later, you must say a lot of bad things about her. For example, your aunt is often cruel to you and occasionally beats you. Then, you have to talk about yourself." I really like that beautiful sister and want to be friends with the brother in her belly. As long as the beautiful sister becomes your new aunt, no one will **** you away as your son."

Zhi Geer's dark pupils shrank: "What you said...is true?"

"Of course it's true. Your aunt always wants to **** you away as her son. She hates it, right?" After speaking softly, a cold smile flashed in Xiaoqing's eyes...

But he said that after Zhuge Yu gave Zhuge Xi an acupuncture to relieve the fever, he ignored Zhuge Xi's objection and rushed towards the Qingzhu Courtyard. If the Yao family dared to let that shameless Leng Wei pass through, he would raze the Yao family to the ground! How did the Yao family guarantee it when they married Zhuge Xi? Zhuge Xi will only have one wife in this life and will never take any concubines! How long has it been? In less than six years, that **** Yao Cheng actually had an affair with Leng Wei!

Just when Zhuge Yu was about to enter the Qingzhu Courtyard, Shui Linglong came from behind and grabbed his arm. Because she was walking too fast, her forehead was covered with sweat and her face was flushed, as if it was dyed. The dewy peach has an alluring luster.

Zhuge Yu's heart skipped a beat. He was stunned by her for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he realized that she was breathing really hard. He couldn't help but feel distressed: "Why are you running in such a hurry?"

Shui Linglong took his hand and said, "Follow me!"

Zhuge Yu looked at the two people's clasped hands, and a surprise smile flashed across his obsidian eyes. What was he going to do just now? It seemed that I had forgotten everything all at once.

When we met Zhuge Xi again, Zhuge Xi had already put on a golden phoenix gauze dress, which was slowly emitting dazzling light like the splendid scorching sun in midsummer. She put on red makeup, dotted her rosy lips, and her every frown and smile were all charming and luxurious.

 Zhuge Yu finally escaped from Shui Linglong's seductive temptation, and just as he remembered his purpose of seeking justice for his sister, he was shocked by Zhuge Xi's motherly grace.

What is happening to every woman today?

"Linglong is here, sit with Yu'er." Zhuge Xi smiled elegantly, like a golden peony blooming, stunning the time, "Huarong, serve tea, put honey in one cup." Yu'er likes sweetness, like a little girl who has not grown up. child.

Shui Linglong looked at Zhuge Xi as if nothing had happened, and frowned imperceptibly.

Hua Rong served tea and two plates of pastries - Shui Linglong's favorite crab roe cakes and Zhuge Xi's favorite thousand-layer cake.

No one touched the pastry.

 Zhuge Yu completely came back to his senses, his eyes darkened: "I'll go out first!"

 “Come back!” Zhuge Xi and Shui Linglong said in unison.

Zhuge Yu turned a deaf ear and strode forward. This time it was absolutely impossible to recover as easily as before. In desperation, Shui Linglong picked up a book and threw it at Zhuge Yu: "Stop! If you take one more step, I won't talk to you for the rest of my life!"

 Zhuge Yu...sure enough, he stood still!

A trace of surprise flashed through Shui Linglong's quiet eyes, but she said seriously: "Have you ever thought about the consequences of rushing out to make trouble like this? This is a matter between the Yao family and the Leng family. You rushed to interfere and put it nicely? You are a care-seeker, to put it bluntly, you are disorganized! Do you think that you have not caused enough troubles since you were a child? Your only shortcoming is that you are a cannon! If anyone stirs up trouble, you can go on a killing spree in Qingzhuyuan! The people in Qingzhuyuan are not like Xue Juan. Mrs. Yao is the mother of the current queen! Leng Chengkun is the leader of the first family in the Great Zhou Dynasty! , Mrs. Leng is the apple of the eye of the Lu family... I want to ask, which one of these can you, Zhuge Yu, kill at will? "

Zhuge Yu clenched his hands into fists and endured the sweat dripping from his forehead.

Shui Linglong added: "The other party hopes that you will go on a killing spree, which will not only severely damage the Leng family, but also the Yao family, and also give the emperor a great reason to suppress the Zhenbei Palace! Kill three birds with one stone, and you are just waiting to fall into the trap! Just like last time, someone induced you to kill Xue Juan, so why didn't you want to make the Zhenbei Palace and Xuanguo Palace fight? Zhuge Yu, you said you did it on purpose, right? Let’s destroy the Zhenbei Prince’s Mansion!”

 Zhuge Yu suddenly changed his color!

Shui Linglong saw that she was almost stimulated, so she walked up to Zhuge Yu and coaxed in a voice that only two people could hear: "Something happened to you, what should I do?"

 A slap in the face and a sweet date.

Zhuge Yu's throat slid slightly, he gritted his teeth and sat back to his original seat.

 Is there really such an inside story? Zhuge Xi frowned, but she was not delighted by Shui Linglong's wit. On the contrary, when she saw her brother being so "henpecked", she felt a little sour and conflicted. Her younger brother is the person she has loved since she was little. She can scold him but others cannot, because she has devoted all her efforts to him. An elder sister is like a mother, and he is equal to her child! What right does a woman with a foreign surname have to yell at him?

She also thought about how she usually yelled at Yao Cheng, so her mother-in-law and grandmother also felt bad?

Shui Linglong was able to calm Zhuge Yu better than she was, and there was a huge gap in her heart. So, when Yao Cheng's husband failed in front of her, would there be a big gap in the hearts of her mother-in-law and grandmother?

She couldn't bear to blame Zhuge Yu, so she could only blame Shui Linglong for captivating her brother's heart. Just like her mother-in-law and grandmother, the person they resented was not Yao Cheng but her.

 It turns out that she lost to herself...

It was not that Shui Linglong didn't predict that her words would offend Zhuge Xi, but she had no choice. She calmed down and asked, "Sister, have you seen a doctor for five years with nothing to do?" If nothing happened, As for Wei and Yao Cheng, she probably wouldn't find it strange that Zhuge Xi had been infertile for five years.

 Zhuge Xi didn’t understand why Shui Linglong suddenly asked about this. Shouldn’t he advise Zhuge Yu not to act impulsively now? Zhuge Xi was confused for a moment before replying: "I asked the imperial doctors to take a look at it. Apart from some lack of energy and blood, there is nothing serious."

Shui Linglong paused and asked again: "Do you have the habit of taking a bath immediately after having sex?"

Zhuge Xi blushed slightly: "What's the kid asking for?" After a pause, Shui Linglong was still looking at her very seriously. She shook her head, "No!"

Zhuge Yu raised his thick eyebrows, Linglong suspected that Zhuge Xi couldn't conceive a child because he had a physical problem? He also checked Zhuge Xi's pulse and found nothing unusual. But...why does she seem to understand this very well?

Shui Linglong pressed her eyebrows: "Do the things you usually use on your body don't contain things like musk or oleander that can make people infertile?"

 Zhuge Xi shook his head again: "I checked regularly and found nothing."

"Can I see what you use personally?" Shui Linglong asked slowly. Zhuge Xi nodded, "The dressing table is over there, you can see it yourself."

Shui Linglong walked to the dressing table and carefully inspected Zhuge Xi's rouge, gouache, jewelry, and various combs. Indeed, she found nothing fishy. Thoughts were rolling in Shui Linglong's mind. Suddenly, she vaguely caught a clue: "You I have insufficient Qi and blood. What medicine are you taking?”

 Zhuge Xi is a patient after all. After sitting for a while, she felt tired. She leaned back on the chair and said, "The medicine doesn't count. I just keep taking Guyuan ointment."

 Guyuan paste is made from donkey-hide gelatin, red dates, walnut kernels, black sesame seeds, and rock sugar. The main ingredient is donkey-hide gelatin, which has the effect of nourishing blood and nourishing the skin. Women who have been taking Guyuan ointment for many years have black and shiny hair, less wrinkles and elastic skin, and look radiant. Shui Linglong blinked: "Always? How long?"

“I’ve been taking it since I got married, because if I have insufficient Qi and blood...ahem, Yao Chenggong ordered me Gu Yuan Ointment from outside.”

Zhuge Xi didn't say that, but Shui Linglong also knew that lack of Qi and blood would have an impact on sexual intercourse. In short, her combat effectiveness was not strong. If Shui Linglong remembers correctly, one should take a small spoonful of Guyuan ointment every day after the Kui Shui, without stopping until the next time the Kui Shui comes. If Shui Linglong normally does not think there is anything wrong with Guyuan ointment, but it involves Upon seeing Zhuge Xi's infertility, Shui Linglong suddenly recalled a conventional contraceptive pill, which was taken in the same cycle as Guyuan Cream. Is it possible that Guyuan Cream was actually mixed with conventional contraceptive pills?

Shui Linglong glanced at Zhuge Xi. Yao Cheng had customized the Guyuan Cream for Zhuge Xi. What if it was really a problem with the Guyuan Cream? What would Zhuge Xi think? The other party is trying to drive a wedge between her and Yao Cheng!

 In her knowledge, there is no one else but Xun Feng who can produce conventional contraceptive pills.

Of course, these were just her guesses. Even if Guyuan ointment was given to her, she would not be able to identify whether it contained contraceptive pills, unless... Shui Linglong smiled and said: "Sister is sick now, so it is not appropriate to take supplements." , It’s such a waste, can you give it to me?”

Zhuge Xi frowned: "This month's Gu Yuan ointment... seems..." He hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to express it, and then smiled relievedly, "It's a supplement anyway, it doesn't matter if you eat it. I only took a small part of it, you take it Go ahead.”

When Zhuge Xi said this, Shui Linglong clearly noticed Hua Rong's hands shaking, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.

Shui Linglong couldn't help but look at Hua Rong one more time.

Zhuge Xi made a move to stand up, Hua Rong supported her with sharp eyes, and she smiled faintly: "It's time to settle things, let's go to Qingzhuyuan!"

In Qingzhu Courtyard, although Mrs. Yao did not agree, she did not immediately reject Mrs. Leng's words. The atmosphere in the room was a bit strange.

Yao Cheng pinched the hem of his brocade suit, and after some ideological struggle he said, "I can't have two wives! I'm sorry for Leng Wei, but I can't marry her! I can only... give her the title of concubine."

 “Brother Cheng!” Leng Wei was so aggrieved that she burst into tears.

Mrs. Leng was furious: "Yao Cheng! Don't push yourself too far! If my daughter hadn't cooked rice with you, with her appearance and the background of the Leng family, she would be worthy of the prince! You act with such despicable behavior Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning if you use tricks to get my daughter?"

"Lu Qiong, don't go too far!" Mrs. Yao slammed the table and shouted!

Madam Leng was startled for a moment, then realized that she had gone too far. She turned her eyes and started sobbing: "Auntie, in what way is our Weier not worthy of Yao Cheng? Weier must be both beautiful and talented. Being talented, the most important thing is being able to have children, which is completely different from that vase display! How can you be willing to wrong her?"

"What a vase ornament! For five years and four months, I carefully served my grandmother and parents-in-law, treated my sister-in-law and sisters-in-law well, and loved my husband wholeheartedly. In the end, I became a vase ornament in your eyes because I was unable to conceive a child." Zhuge The moment Xi stepped into the bright hall, she let go of Hua Rong's support, used all her strength to support her weak body, and stepped into everyone's sight step by step.

Leng Wei thought she was young and good-looking, so she chose a red dress in order to outshine Zhuge Xi. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Xi looked like the sun had broken out of the sea, and her whole body was filled with a sense of sanctity and nobility. , Inviolable tolerance. And even if I am a beautiful and noble flower, I can't compare to the scorching sun that shines on the earth.

 Inferiority and jealousy slowly spread in my heart...

Yao Cheng looked at Zhuge Xi in a daze, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose: "Xiao Xi..."

 Zhuge Xi showed a piece of contract and smiled elegantly: "Master Yao, please sign the "Book of Wife Release". From now on, men can be married and women can be married, and you and I will have nothing to do with each other."

  Is this to...heli?

 Everyone was shocked!

Yao Cheng was dumbfounded: "Xiao Xi, you...don't do this!"

Zhuge Xi smiled lightly and said: "We, the princess of Kashiqing, will never marry anyone else. Lord Yao can't give up his lover, just like I will never betray my faith. Sign it, Lord Yao."

 The attitude is very obvious: there is her without Leng Wei, there is Leng Wei without her, even if Leng Wei just marries in as a concubine!

Leng Wei has Yao Cheng's flesh and blood in her belly, and the Leng family and Zhenbei Palace are equally matched, so Mrs. Yao's choice is obvious.

Yao Cheng's heart ached in waves, like a red-hot iron sealing his mark inch by inch. It was only at the moment of loss that he suddenly woke up. Nothing was as important as Xiao Xi! Be it children or future, he doesn't want them all! He only wants his Xiaoxi!

He held the "Book of Wife Release" tremblingly: "I won't sign! I won't marry or take concubines! Zhuge Xi is the only wife in my life!" As he spoke, he knelt down on the ground, "I can't do it for you. The descendants of the Yao family, please ask the old lady to disqualify me from inheriting the title of head of the family!"

Leng Wei's figure swayed as if she had fallen into an ice cellar: "Brother Cheng, what will happen to me and the child? He is your biological flesh and blood, how can you not want him?"

 “You bastard!” Mrs. Yao was so angry that she spat out a mouthful of blood! The room suddenly turned into a mess. Mrs. Yao and Feng Yanying hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Yao, "Mother!", "Grandma!"

Mrs. Yao pointed tremblingly at Zhuge Xi and said word by word: "If you don't want me to die...just...make peace with this woman...!"

Leng Wei lowered her eyes to hide the flash of joy. Once Yao Cheng and Zhuge Xi reconciled, she would not only be an ordinary wife, but a legitimate wife!

Leng Chengkun looked at his niece solemnly: "Xiao Xi, don't be impulsive." The Leng family has already sent Leng Youru into the fire pit, and now they are forcing Zhuge Xi and Yao Cheng to reconcile. This feeling... is very bad. !

"Thank you uncle for your concern. I made this decision after careful consideration." As he said that, Zhuge Xi glanced at Yao Cheng indifferently, his eyes full of disgust. Yao Cheng's heart became cold, Xiao Xi... didn't love him anymore! How can it be? She was obviously still... last night

"My patience is limited. If Mr. Yao is unwilling to sign, we will only have to go to court." After saying this in a cold voice, Zhuge Xi turned around decisively.

 “Why must we reconcile?” Yao Cheng asked through gritted teeth.

Zhuge Xi said indifferently: "Because you have a relationship with another woman, I think you are very dirty!"

 Very dirty? Xiao Xi thinks he is dirty? Yes, even if he is dirty, he is just not worthy of Xiao Xi...

"Okay, if you want to leave, I'll just sign it!" Yao Cheng's eyes were red and he signed the "Letter of Release of Wife" with a swipe of his pen.

Brother Zhi, who had been hiding by the door panel, suddenly ran over, pulled Zhuge Xi's skirt, and asked bluntly: "Auntie, are you leaving and never coming back?"

Zhuge Xi’s nose felt sour and he smiled and said, “Yes, you will have a new aunt soon.”

  New aunt? Is she the ugly woman with the little brother in her belly? He doesn't want a little brother! No new aunt either! Likewise, losing your little brother means losing your new aunt!

Thinking of this, a dark light suddenly flashed in Brother Zhi's clear eyes, and then, with all his strength, he slammed into Leng Wei's stomach!

“Ah—” Leng Wei screamed, and the person and the chair fell to the ground. She originally thought that the child was here to show his kindness to her, and she even prepared to hug him, but who knew that he bumped into her belly without saying a word!

 Fortunately, she covered him quickly, so his hand didn't press directly on her abdomen!

 But who can tell her how a two-year-old child could have so much strength to knock her over?

"Weier!" Mrs. Leng reached out to pull Brother Zhi the moment she bumped into Leng Wei, but it was a step too late. Leng Wei had already fallen to the ground.

Leng Chengkun was shocked, Mu Di jumped off the chair, rushed to Leng Wei's side, and helped Leng Wei, who was sweating, up: "Weier, how are you?"

 A pregnant woman falls to the ground with her back leaning on the chair. You can imagine how dangerous it is!

The Yao family were also dumbfounded. Mrs. Yao even forgot that she was still breathing, so she held Mrs. Yao's hand and started to stand up.

Xiaoqing's eyes almost fell out. Didn't she trick Brother Zhi into slandering Zhuge Xi? Why did Brother Zhi harm Leng Wei in turn? Did she express it wrong, or did Brother Zhi understand it wrong?

 Feng Yanying was even more struck by lightning. What had her always well-behaved son done just now? It’s intentional! That was his son, and she could tell what he was about to fart when he raised his butt. That angry look and desperate drive are all real! But... why?
