Chapter 145 He is a good person
When Su Li woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
We played around in the bathtub together last night, I don't know how many times, until she was exhausted and fell asleep.
Have a good night's sleep.
My whole body is warm, without a trace of cold.
As expected, I still have to sleep with a big heater in my arms.
"Mother!"
Hearing the sound of her getting up and washing up, Xi Jie'er couldn't wait to rush over. Su Li opened her arms and was embraced by Xi Jie'er.
"Come on!"
Xi Jie'er had already given Su Li a big kiss on the face, leaving a pool of cold saliva.
"Mom, you didn't come to see me when you came back last night!"
Xijie'er hugged Su Li's neck and acted coquettishly, with her little mouth pouting.
Su Li smiled and pinched her pouty lips, saying:
"Did you eat and sleep well during the two days when mom was away?"
"Yes!" Xi Jie'er reported impatiently, "I even made sure my brother ate well and slept well. But he didn't listen. He went to the martial arts training ground before dawn, and even after dinner at night he would light a lamp and read until midnight."
"Brother is not a good boy! Mom will spank him when she gets home!"
"Okay!" Su Li hugged Xijie'er and rubbed her against him, while Songzhi and Songtao were busy tying her hair and doing her makeup.
"Madam, Madam just sent someone over."
"What's the matter?" Su Li was shocked, fearing that something might have happened to Su Zhe again.
"Madam, don't be alarmed. It's not the young master. They say something happened to Master Shen Yanqing."
Songzhi tied up her hair and took out her coat for Su Li to wear.
"Shen Yanqing? What happened to him?"
"I heard he was attacked by thugs outside the city the day before yesterday. He was stabbed twice in the chest and back, and he fell unconscious when he returned last night. Madam said that the marriage between Lord Shen and Miss Cousin will probably be delayed for a while longer."
Su Li listened with a frown on her face.
Why does this sound so weird?
"Where's the general?"
"I went out early in the morning."
After getting dressed, Su Li said, "Let's go back to the Marquis' Mansion."
As soon as I entered the Yong'an Marquis Mansion with Xi Jie'er, I heard my mother Qin comforting me.
"Jing'er, don't panic. Someone from the Shen family said Yanqing's life is not in danger and he has already woken up this morning."
"aunt!"
Xu Jing was crying sadly, holding a handkerchief and shedding tears.
Song Ci sat aside with a calm expression. She was a womanizing woman, and she didn't know where to start when it came to these women's private conversations. Besides, she had no feelings for Xu Jing to begin with, so she didn't know how to persuade her.
It's a bit awkward to just sit there.
Only when he saw Su Li coming did he show an expression as if help had arrived.
"Xijie'er, go play with your aunt."
Su Li sent Xi Jie'er and Song Ci together. Song Ci gave her a grateful look and took Xi Jie'er to play in the garden.
"Li'er, you're right. Persuade your cousin to stop crying." Qin rubbed her temples and felt a headache.
Su Zhe's matter was enough to bother her. She originally thought that Xu Jing would be able to get married smoothly this time, but just a few days before the auspicious day, something like this happened.
"Mother, how could such a good Lord Shen run into such a bad guy?"
Qin frowned and said, "I heard she went to the hunters in the mountains to buy furs and ginseng as a betrothal gift. Oh, how did she run into these bad guys? The security in the capital is really getting worse and worse."
A hint of disgust flashed in Xu Jing's eyes.
She has no interest in furs, ginseng, or other things that are not presentable!
She covered her face with a handkerchief and cried, "Aunt, he's so badly injured, how can he still make it to the sixth day of the New Year?"
"I'm afraid not. Auntie and Madam Shen have discussed it and decided to postpone it until his injury heals. Okay, don't worry about it anymore. Go back and rest. You've been crying all morning."
Returning to her own courtyard where no one was around, Xu Jing immediately put away the sad expression on her face and slammed her fist on the dressing table:
"A bunch of useless idiots, they can't even handle a scholar, yet they can still let people crawl back alive and take my five hundred taels of silver for nothing."
Looking at her slightly distorted face in the makeup mirror, she took a deep breath and relaxed her expression.
Looking back, it was already a cool flower on the mountain top.
Qin pulled Su Li and sighed, saying:
"Yanqing is truly deeply in love with Jing'er, even going so far as to personally go up the mountain to buy local products. After Jing'er marries him, the two of them will surely be able to live a happy life in harmony. Unlike Azhe and Ci'er... ah..."
"Are you two still arguing?"
"Of course! They quarreled every day, almost tearing the roof off the house. If I had known earlier, I should have listened to you and shouldn't have been so hasty in getting them married. Now that I think about it, it's our Su family who has let Ci'er down."
Su Li advised: "Mom, I'll go take a look."
When we arrived at the garden, we saw Su Zhe hiding outside the moon gate, leaning on a cane and peeking inside foolishly.
Following his gaze, Su Li saw Song Ci teaching Xi Jie'er how to play with the flower rope. She was smiling sweetly among the flowers, and she was more beautiful than the flowers.
"Is it nice?"
"nice!"
Su Zhe blurted out, and when he realized someone was approaching, he turned around and saw it was Su Li. He patted his chest and said:
"Sister, you walk without making any sound! It's scary!"
"It was obviously you who was so engrossed in peeping at others that you didn't even respond when I called you, okay!" Su Li poked Su Zhe's head, feeling very disappointed in him.
"When did my Su Li's brother become such a coward! Where did that shameless energy he had when he was chasing after girls go? You told me that a strong woman is afraid of a clinging man! "
"Sister, this is a different time! I am now..."
Su Zhe recalled the day when he changed the dressing and saw his back.
Such a horrible wound, even looking at it made her feel sick. Song Ci was so delicate, she would definitely be afraid or even disgusted.
Su Zhe was filled with irritation, and he kept silent for a while with his eyes downcast.
"It's just a few scars, what's the big deal? Your brother-in-law had scars much more horrible than yours, but I don't despise him."
"That's because you two are in love." Su Zhe was not convinced and murmured, "Aci, however, doesn't like me..."
"Idiot! Idiot! Blockhead! Why didn't that piece of wood hit you on the head? The girl has already made up her mind and is ready to live a good life with you, why are you being so pretentious?"
Puff! Su Li hit him on the back of the head.
"Sister!"
Su Zhe was hit and his voice instantly became much louder.
In the garden, Song Ci looked over here, and after just a glance, Su Zhe fled in panic.
Hey!
No prospects!
"Sister, I don't understand."
Song Ci, who had finally smiled because of Xi Jie'er's arrival, now looked worried again. She put down the flower rope dejectedly.
"He chased me so relentlessly back then, but now he won't even look at me."
"Sister, he must hate me. If I hadn't listened to his advice and gone downstairs, he wouldn't have been injured and nearly died, and he wouldn't have suffered so much."
Seeing that Song Ci was also like this, Su Li was really worried about these two people.
"This has nothing to do with you. He's just a blockhead. Don't pay any attention to him. Let me ask you something from the bottom of my heart. Do you like him?"
Su Li doesn't like to be shy and goes straight to the point.
"Ah?" Song Ci widened his eyes.
She really hadn't thought about this question.
She thought of the past and blushed. After a long while, she said:
"I don't know. He's a good man."
Su Li saw Su Zhe coming back from outside the Moon Gate.
Hearing this, the corner of his clothes paused, and his heart felt as if it had been hit by a blunt force.
Sure enough, I still don’t like it!
He sighed softly and walked away with his cane.
