Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

Chapter 490 Qi Dongjing's Concern

A thick white cloud floated not far away, covering the hot sun.

Lu Sheng wiped the sweat off his forehead, quietly waiting for Ye Luo's answer.

"I heard from Fengzhu Lu that in the area of ​​Yongfu Town, there will be a layer of strange light every night, but my senior brother checked it, and there is nothing."

As soon as Ye Luo finished speaking, Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng looked at each other instantly.

It wasn't long before the incident of the living puppets had passed, and now there was a strange light again. Could it be that the land was cursed?

Or is it that Xianya and Xianjing have actually returned to Yongfu Town, and are planning to resume their old business and continue refining living puppets?

No wonder Chunyudong asked Tsing Yi to stay guard in Yongfu Town, while Lu Zhou asked Lan Yi and Lv Yi to wait at the intersection where the two towns connect.

It must also be worried that Xianjing and Xianya are preparing to refine new puppets again.

At the same time, Yangcheng Mansion.

In a secluded courtyard, two people were sitting.

One was wearing black clothes, and the other was wearing a black robe. The black hood completely covered his face, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

Neither of them spoke. The man in the black robe stood quietly behind the man in the black robe.

At this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open, and a woman in red came in.

She walked up to the black-robed man, knelt down on one knee, and reported: "My lord, the old man of Sect Leader Kong has led all the elders of the five peaks and the peak master to chase after him."

After listening to the woman in red's report, the coffee table in front of the man in black suddenly vibrated, and some of the tea in the cup spilled out due to the violent shaking.

The man in xuanyi glanced at the coffee table out of the corner of his eye, not daring to speak.

The woman in red didn't even dare to raise her head.

"When the deity regains its strength, we will bloodbath Wufeng!"

The voice of the man in black was like the sound of a knife cutting through glass, it was harsh and unpleasant, and it made people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.

"How are your preparations going?"

Di Gui stood up and asked the two with his hands behind his back.

Xianjing hurriedly said: "Master Huidigui, most of the living puppets have been refined, and within two months we can refine the deceiving puppets."

"Very well, there is nothing wrong here, so you don't need to keep staring at it and continue refining puppets."

"Yes!"

After the brother and sister agreed, they turned and walked out of the gate.

————

Liuyue Village.

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye. During this period of time, there was no bad news, and everything seemed to be peaceful.

But the more this happened, the more strange Lu Zhou felt.

Recently, the Chu Mansion is already preparing invitations. In ten days or so, it will be the big day for Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan.

Because the news of Qi Dongjing came from the town, saying that Shi Yi and Yun Ting had returned, and wanted Chu Sihan to bring Lu Sheng to the town for a gathering.

Seeing that Xianjing and Xianya hadn't been seen for more than half a month, Lu Zhou felt that they might not have come to Liuyue Village.

Therefore, they also agreed to go to the town.

Even so, though, he secretly followed them, just in case.

"Brother Chu, Miss Lu, sit down quickly!"

Not surprisingly, this group of idiots are still in the Lu family restaurant.

Today's Lujia restaurants are somewhat different from before.

Because they bought the restaurant next door, He Zhang and He Qin used the restaurant next door as a private room.

Of course, this is also following Lu Sheng's suggestion.

At this moment, Shi Yi, Lu Zhou and the others are in this private room.

Looking at the pile of new food on the table, Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.

Shi Yi murmured: "Miss Lu is really uninteresting. There are so many new delicacies in Lu's restaurant, so I don't know how to write a letter to inform us."

"That's right!" Fu Sisi agreed with her lips curled up, "I've been eating food from Lu's restaurants for a long time, and during the time I've been back to the capital, nothing tastes good. The taste of this chili makes me want to die."

After she finished speaking, she picked up a tiger-skin green pepper and put it in her mouth to take a bite.

Lu Sheng chuckled, "I heard Mrs. Fu said that you will come back in a few days, and I think you can eat it when you come back."

"When I came back this time, not only did I have more dishes, but I also had several more melons and fruits, which I have never seen before."

Yun Ting looked at Lu Sheng and asked, "Is this watermelon related to white winter melon?"

Lu Sheng nodded, "Yes."

Everyone stopped their chopsticks, ready to listen to her explanation.

Who knows, she raised her brows slightly and said, "It's all melons."

Everyone: ...

Chu Sihan chuckled softly, and said dotingly: "Naughty."

Lu Sheng blinked innocently, looked at him and asked, "Did I say something wrong?"

He shook his head and smiled lightly, "You're right."

Yun Ting sighed softly, "Miss Lu is really humorous."

Lu Sheng shrugged, accepting the compliment.

"Then what should this thing be called?"

Fu Sisi pointed to the plate of roasted sweet potatoes, and asked blankly, "Why is this called steamed sweet potato and purple potato, and the baked one is called sweet potato?"

"It's just to distinguish the types of potatoes. If you want to make it simpler, you can also call them sweet potatoes."

Fu Sisi nodded with a vague understanding.

Shi Yi leaned on the chair, looked at Chu Sihan and asked, "I heard that your date has been fixed, when is it?"

Although the invitation hadn't been sent to him yet, they had already received the news early.

"The first day of next month."

Chu Si replied in a cold voice.

"Didn't you say July?" Qi Dongjing raised his eyebrows.

The last time he went to the Chu Mansion to look for Chu Sihan, he asked him specifically, and he said he was coming in July.

"July?" Shi Yi snorted lightly, "Brother Qi, is July the day when people get married?"

Qi Dongjing frowned, "Why not?"

He didn't pay much attention to these, so he really didn't understand why they couldn't get married in July.

"Ghost Moon, brother!"

Shi Yi glanced at him in disgust, "You don't understand these things, you have lived in vain for twenty years."

"Who knows this?" Qi Dongjing curled his lips, looked at Chu Sihan aggrievedly and said, "Brother Chu, I didn't expect you to be able to deceive people."

When Chu Sihan answered his question, he was obviously serious, which made him believe it.

Lu Sheng smiled and explained for Chu Sihan: "He didn't lie to you, he really wanted to get married in July, but my master didn't agree."

Speaking of this, Chu Sihan's face turned pale for an instant, but he recovered in an instant, so no one present noticed it.

Even Lu Sheng didn't notice.

"Come on, let's congratulate you both in advance!" Shi Yi raised his glass and said with a smile.

When the rest of the people saw them, they raised their glasses to the two of them.

Seeing that Lu Sheng had raised his glass first, Chu Sihan couldn't help but smiled, and then raised his glass to a few others.

There are still many customers in Lu's restaurant, whether it is downstairs or upstairs, it is very lively.

Lu Sheng pushed open the window, leaned against the window, and looked down at the world below.

His head suddenly became dizzy, and his eyes were plunged into darkness.

She shook her head, closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the time in front of her eyes became clear again.

"What's wrong?"

Sensing that something was wrong with her, Chu Sihan hurriedly stepped forward to inquire.

"I'm fine, maybe it's too hot, heatstroke."

She raised her hand and rubbed her temples lightly, trying to relieve the dizziness.

Chu Sihan raised his hand to test her forehead and found nothing wrong.

However, he still suggested: "Why don't we go back to the Chu Mansion to have a rest first, and then go back to the village at night?"

She shook her head, "I'm fine!"

The discomfort just now was only for a moment, but now I feel that there is nothing wrong with it.

Seeing that her complexion had returned to ruddy, Chu Sihan no longer forced himself.

"Brother Qi, you haven't been back to the capital for several years. Some time ago, we ran into Mrs. Qi, and he asked us if we had seen you, and wanted you to go back."

Over there, Shi Yi leaned his chair towards Qi Dongjing, and spoke with a serious expression.

"What am I going back for?"

Qi Dongjing smiled lightly, "Go back and marry a wife and have children?"

"What's wrong?" Shi Yi sighed softly, "Old Master Qi is absolutely right, you are old enough, and it's time to start a family."

Qi Dongjing's mother was overly sad because her eldest son died in battle, so she left within a few years.

His elder sister-in-law also remarried after being widowed for three years, and now, Mrs. Qi is the only one left in the family to manage the house.

Qi Dongjing has a nephew, but that nephew is only ten years old this year, and he is not yet capable of major tasks.

Now, Mrs. Qi is old, and she doesn't know how long she can last. If one day she kicks her legs, the entire Qi Mansion will really lose even a mistress.

Qi Dongjing sighed softly, "I will go back, but not now."

"The time of the year has passed, and it will not help you to escape."

Chu Sihan stopped Lu Sheng from walking over, and spoke softly.

Qi Dongjing's face paled slightly, he pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.

The worried eyes of Fu Sisi, Yun Ting and Shi Yi all fell on him.

The atmosphere was a little depressed for a while.

Lu Sheng looked at this and then at that, confused.

I don't know how long it took before Qi Dongjing let out a long sigh.

"I know, but I can't get over that hurdle in my heart."

He clenched his fists tightly, with an expression of forbearance.

Seeing his appearance, Lu Sheng, who was about to ask about the situation, suddenly swallowed the question on his lips.

From the looks of it, it shouldn't be a small matter, maybe it's a major event that affects Qi Dongjing's life.

Asking this kind of thing in person is no different from sprinkling salt on a wound.

"It's been four years, no matter how much you hate old matriarch Qi, you still can't abandon the whole Qi manor. General Qi is now outside the Great Wall, and your grandfather has reached the age when he has more energy than he wants."

Chu Sihan's voice was very light, but he looked at Qi Dongjing with worry.

Lu Sheng didn't know what happened to Qi Dongjing, but he knew from Chu Sihan's words that this matter was not trivial.

The others didn't make a sound, but listened quietly.

"I don't need you to persuade me to know, but..."

Qi Dongjing pursed his lips again, tears swirled in his eyes, he took a deep breath, trying to force the tears back, but unexpectedly, it still dripped down.

He wiped away his tears, sniffed his nose, and said in a low voice: "But, as soon as I return to Qi Mansion, I will think of the picture of her tragic death in the firewood room."

Chu Sihan patted his shoulder lightly, and sighed faintly.

He couldn't persuade Qi Dongjing too much, he didn't understand this matter before, but now, if this kind of thing happened to him, he might not be as good as Qi Dongjing.

"I still have something to do in my bookshop, so I'll go back first."

Qi Dongjing wiped away his tears, got up and forced a smile at them, then strode out of the private room.

"Ugh--"

Fu Sisi stared at the door and said softly, "Young Master Qi is so pitiful."

"Qi Dongjing...what happened?"

As soon as Qi Dongjing left, Lu Sheng finally couldn't help his curiosity.

Fu Sisi turned her head, looked at her and said, "Young Master Qi used to have a maid named Qing Huan, who grew up with him, and the relationship between the two is very good."

"However, Mrs. Qi did not agree with them being together. Later, when Mr. Qi was away, he wanted to betroth Qing Huan to a cripple. Fortunately, Mr. Qi felt that something was wrong and returned to the talisman, so Qing Huan was rescued. .”

"Then what happened next?" Lu Sheng asked.

"Later, Mr. Qi took Qing Huan with him wherever he went. When he came and went, he just... just..."

Fu Sisi "just" for a long time, her face turned suspiciously red.

However, Lu Sheng, who wanted to know the answer, didn't notice her change.

"What's the matter?"

"At once……"

"cough--"

Yun Ting coughed lightly, trying to interrupt Fu Sisi's next words.

Lu Sheng glanced suspiciously at Yun Ting, then at Fu Sisi, only then realized that she looked wrong.

And Shi Yi and Chu Sihan on the side didn't intend to explain to her either.

No matter how stupid Lu Sheng was, he guessed the answer.

She also coughed lightly, and said to Fu Sisi: "I understand, you just need to talk about the next thing."

Fu Sisi smiled awkwardly, "Because Qinghuan is pregnant and can't bear to travel, so Mr. Qi bought a yard outside to house her."

"But I don't want to. The old matriarch Qi found out about this matter. When Mr. Qi went out, he asked someone to bring Qing Huan back to the Qi mansion, and forced her to drink saffron."

When Lu Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"That's all." Fu Sisi said angrily: "The old lady Qi is a cruel person, he couldn't help forcing Qinghuan to drink the abortion pill, and even had her beaten fifty times before throwing her into the woodshed. "

"It was still snowing outside at the time, and it was very cold. When Mr. Qi found her, Qing Huan was lying in a pool of blood. She was...stiff."

She looked at Lu Sheng who was frowning and said, "Qing Huan is Mr. Qi's favorite girl. This person just disappeared, and she was killed by her grandmother. At that time, she vomited blood on the spot and passed out. It took five days Woke up, and when I woke up, I was seriously ill again, and almost died."

At this moment, Lu Sheng somewhat understood why Qi Dongjing didn't want to go back to the Qi Mansion.

"This Old Madam Qi's methods are indeed ruthless."

No matter who Qinghuan is, she is pregnant with her great-grandson, a child of the Qi family, how can she bear to be cruel?

and……

"Qing Huan is a maid, if you feel that her status is not worthy of Mr. Qi, wouldn't it be fine to let her be a concubine? Why do you push her into this situation?"

Lu Sheng really didn't understand this point.

"It happens for a reason."

Chu Sihan explained in a low voice: "Back then, Qinghuan's mother was the maidservant of brother and aunt Qi Xun, but after Qi Xun got married, she was taken by Mrs. Qi's side. When I was with the old lady, I tried to..."

When he said this, Chu Sihan's voice paused, he glanced at Lu Sheng, coughed lightly and continued: "I tried to climb onto General Qi's bed, but was later executed by General Qi in a fit of anger."
