The Marquis Is Innocent: Chapter 98

Wei Shao left the city on the third day.

As the last army that followed him westward was pulled out this morning, Yuyang City gradually recovered from the turmoil of the past few days.

The Wei residence is not like other aristocratic families. The population is not complicated at all, and with the changes ten years ago, it is even simpler now. Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Zhu left, and Wei Shao also left three days ago. The north house and the east house were all empty. In such a huge mansion, after nightfall, only the Westinghouse side was brightly lit, so it would inevitably look lonely.

Xiao Qiao has had a very fulfilling life these days.

On the first day after Wei Shao left, all the stewards and servants who had been slowly re-selected from the end of last year all came to her to clear the accounts, and then looked at the warehouse, not all of them, but just random points, so they were always busy. It was only when it was dark that it stopped.

Because Mrs. Xu usually likes flowers and plants, especially roses, last winter, an extreme north cold current suddenly hit, and she was unable to protect her for a while. The roses that Mrs. Xu had carefully cultivated for many years were all frozen to death. Not to mention Mrs. Xu, even Xiao Qiao was very distressed when she saw it. It is recommended to build a flower house in the courtyard. Mrs. Xu was also in high spirits at the time. It was only after the incidents of Wei Yan and Zhu Shi came out one after another that Mrs. Xu herself fell ill, and the matter was suspended.

Now that it is spring, and I have free time, I can build a flower house. So the next day, Xiao Qiao asked the gardener to come with him, spent most of the day surveying the north house, and chose the address of the flower house. The next day, a very experienced carpenter and mason was called to start the construction of the flower house.

Another busy day passed.

Today, the woodworker presented the flower room pattern. Joe is satisfied. Designate a competent steward to take care of this.

The matter of the female gentleman is still to please the old lady. The steward naturally does his best, and does not dare to slack off.

Today is also the 50th birthday of Wei Liang's mother.

Wei Liang didn't come back from Jinyang at the end of last year, and now he can't come back to celebrate his birthday. Mother Wei and Madam Zhu are of the same generation. In terms of seniority, Xiao Qiao calls her Auntie. So today, I went to Wei Liang's house in person to congratulate Wei's mother on her birthday.

Wei Liang's mother and his wife were flattered when they saw the lady coming in person, and after socializing, Xiao Qiao came back too late. After bathing, there was no need to wait for Wei Shao to return as before, and asked people to close the courtyard door early, climb into the bed, and fall asleep.

She has been busy these days. Although it's all trivial matters, she's also exhausted, and she's really tired. In addition to the birthday banquet, she only drank two glasses of wine. As soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell asleep quickly.

In a daze, I didn't know when I fell asleep, and was awakened by a burst of urine. I had no choice but to climb out of the hot bed, without lighting the light, put on some clothes and went to the bath room to relieve my hands, and came out with clean hands, still a little sleepy. , wrap comfortably again tightly. As soon as he closed his eyes, he quickly fell back asleep.

Suddenly there was a slap on the door, the sound was not soft, mixed with Chunniang's call, as if something major had happened. Xiao Qiao suddenly woke up completely, startled, opened his eyes and asked, "What's up with Chunniang?"

"Lady, get up! Jia Huben is here! I'm waiting outside the gate at the moment, and at the man's word, I want to take the lady to Jinyang with you!"

Jia Hu Ben is the general of Hu Ben Lang, Jia Xi, who escorted Xiao Qiao all the way to the south and north, and is already very familiar with him.

Although Chunniang tried her best to restrain herself, her slightly raised tone of voice still revealed her excitement and surprise at the moment.

Xiao Qiao was stunned for a moment, then turned inward, and said lazily: "At midnight, why am I going to Jinyang? Go and tell General Jia. I'm not going."

Chunniang was anxious, and patted the door hard, but when she saw that the door would not open, she was helpless, afraid that Jia Xi and others would be in a hurry, she thought for a while, and hurried to the gate first, took a breath, and said, "General again. Wait a minute. It's too sudden, it takes some effort for the lady to get up, put on makeup, and pack her clothes."

Jia Xi came back from the night of Zhuo County with Jun Hou. At this moment, the Junhou people were waiting at the gate of the city and asked him to come and pick up the female monarch quickly. Just now he handed in the words, and he had already waited for some time. Seeing that the female monarch still did not come out, he hurriedly said: "The Junhou told me , you just need to pick up the lady first. The rest of the clothes, after you take care of it, Chunyi, it will not be too late to go on the road tomorrow. "

Chunniang naturally didn't know that Wei Shao ran back in person, she just thought that he had sent Jia Xizhe back to pick up people, and now she just wanted to hold him back and said hurriedly: "I know, I know. General Jia will wait a moment. to urge."

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly ran in again, and patted the door again to call Xiao Qiao.

Xiao Qiao knew that this time, she wouldn't give up if she didn't open the door, so she got up, lit the light to open the door, went back to the bed and lay down again.

Chunniang chased her to the bedside, gasping for breath, while persuading: "This is not the time for you to take your breath away! General Jia is still waiting outside the door for you to go out! The carriages are waiting! Be obedient and get up quickly."

Xiao Qiao only closed her eyes and shook her head: "I'm not going. I want to sleep."

Chunniang hurriedly turned around in front of the bed, wishing to shake the disobedient lady awake. Suddenly I remembered, and I couldn't care about anything else at the moment, and hurriedly said: "The maid didn't say that day, you were drunk, it was not the maid who carried you in, but the man who carried you into the room himself. Seeing you drunk He was unconscious, and said a few words to the maid, who blamed the maid for not taking good care of the female gentleman. It can be seen that even if the male gentleman gave birth to you, he still loves you in his heart! Now that the others have been gone for three days, he has sent Jia The general came back to pick you up because he wanted you to go with you. Don't let the lady go with her own little temper! Just go quickly. So as not to cause unhappiness again."

Xiao Qiao closed her eyes, opened it when she heard the words, and became round: "He sent me into the room? Chunniang, why didn't you tell me that day?"

Chunniang hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "The man told me not to say it. Maybe he couldn't hold back his face. That's all the men are like, the woman you..."

Chunniang was still trying to persuade her, but Xiao Qiao didn't pay attention to what she was saying.

She sat up slowly. He lowered his head and carefully recalled the strange feeling after being drunk that day, and slowly, he seemed to come to his senses.

No wonder he felt that strange feeling. At that time, I actually struggled to open my eyes, but I was so drunk that I couldn't wake up at all.

I finally fully understood. Why do I feel that sticky and uncomfortable feeling all over my body when I wake up? And below...

"Chunniang, how long did he take me into the room?"

Xiao Qiao suddenly raised her head, interrupted Chunniang, and asked her.

"The gentleman stopped for a while... The lady is still obedient! Stop being childish. The maid will serve you and get up!"

He turned his head and called someone in loudly.

After such a tossing, the servants and maids in the Westinghouse had already been quarreled. Hearing that the male gentleman suddenly sent someone to pick up the female gentleman at this time, they were all surprised, and they were all gathered outside waiting to be summoned. Hearing Chunniang's call, she hurriedly pushed open the door and entered.

Xiao Qiao's heart is bright. But I couldn't help it, a burst of depression, and a burst of anger.

Although, when she was awake on weekdays, if he insisted on her fulfilling her duties as a wife, she would definitely not refuse him.

But under the circumstances that day, she was completely unaware, and he took the opportunity to vent on himself again. I don't even know how he manipulated himself at that time, and what indecent behavior he did.

The most hateful thing was that Chunniang had to hide it from herself and pretended to be nothing afterward!

How can there be such a shameless beast man in the world!

"You go out. Go to your sleep!"

Xiao Qiao raised her head and said suddenly.

The maids and maids were taken aback and looked at each other.

Chunniang was really anxious: "My little darling—are you trying to scare the maid to death—"

At this moment, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door. Then, the figure stepped in and turned in from behind the screen.

"Chunniang, why hasn't she gotten up yet? How long have you been waiting?"

People come. Wei Shao had strode in and stopped beside the screen.

His eyes glanced at Xiao Qiao who was still sitting on the bed. The words were addressed to Chunniang, with a tone that seemed displeased.

The maid and maid did not expect that the man who had left three days ago would appear again now, surprised.

Chun Niang was also stunned.

She thought that Wei Shao had sent Jia Xi back to pick him up.

Unexpectedly, he himself came.

It's just just now, why didn't you see it at the door?

"Calm down, gentleman!"

Chunniang responded quickly. Seeing that the man seemed a little impatient, he hurriedly greeted him to comfort him, "The woman will be fine right away..."

"Chunniang, tell him that what my grandmother ordered, let me stay at home. I'm not going anywhere."

Xiao Qiao didn't even glance at Wei Shao, who suddenly appeared out of the corner of his eyes, and said lightly.

Wei Shao turned his eyes to Xiao Qiao, and frowned slightly.

The room was full of people, but they all stared at each other, no one made a sound, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly quiet.

Chun Niang was almost out of breath. Sweat poured out from the palms.

"Men, don't be impatient!" She hurriedly smoothed things out. "The lady didn't mean to brush off the gentleman's good intentions. It's just that there are so many things at home that you can't get away from it for a while..."

"You all go out!" Wei Shao interrupted.

The maids and maids disappeared immediately.

Chunniang looked at the man. His eyes fell on the lady.

Chunniang looked at the lady. She was still sitting on the bed with the quilt in her arms, not looking at the man.

Chunniang was also exhausted and had no choice but to turn around and leave the room three steps at a time.

When there were only two people left in the room, Wei Shao walked to the bed, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly seemed to smell something, leaned over and leaned towards her, sniffed her twice, and frowned again: "Are you drinking again?"

Xiao Qiao said: "Drink. How?"

Wei Shao's brows furrowed even more: "You obviously get drunk as soon as you drink, and you're unconscious. You're still home alone now. Why don't you remember the lesson of the last time you got drunk?"

Xiao Qiao turned his head slowly, stared at him for a moment, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Jun Hou is afraid that I will be drunk again and unconscious, and if I meet a man who is not as good as a beast, I will be humiliated?"

Wei Shao was stunned, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his eyes quickly, but he quickly regained his composure, and said in a nonchalant tone: "Do you think I think? It was that day when you were drunk, I kindly took you back to the room and let you go. If you want to leave later, you will leave me alone. It’s just that you were drunk at the time, so I can’t remember it now.”

Xiao Qiao Xuebai clenched her lower lip tightly, and finally said, "I just realized that I am drunk, it's not my fault. I really wronged the lord. It's just that it's the middle of the night, and the lord doesn't let anyone sleep. What are you running back to provoke me?"

Wei Shao coughed dryly: "I sent my grandmother to Wuji City before. Before I left, my grandmother told me that after thinking about it, I felt that it would be inappropriate to leave you at home alone, and asked me to take you to Jinyang. I think my grandmother arranged She makes sense. That's why she turned back and picked you up."

Xiao Qiao said, "Before my grandmother left, why didn't she tell me to go with you? Besides, I have a good time here, so I won't go."

Wei Shao said, "Are you going?"

"Don't go."

"going or not?"

Wei Shao paused and asked again.

"I said, don't go. I'm going to bed."

Xiao Qiao ignored him, lay down, turned her back to him, and closed her eyes.

Wei Shao stared at the back of the head she gave him, and his face gradually became ugly.

Suddenly he knelt on the bed, leaned over, stretched out his hand and dragged her out of the quilt as if he was catching a chicken, grabbed a long cloak inlaid with fox fur hanging on a hanger, and wrapped it around her. He picked up the shoes she had taken off the ground again, grabbed her feet and forced them into them, half hugging them, half dragging them on the ground, and then they sprung out.

His jaw dropped behind him.
