MTL - After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart-Chapter 36 Mr. Xie brought it upon himself
The full moon rises into the sky, and the night becomes darker.
Sima Chao said to Love: "I'm tired after a day of hard work. Go to bed early."
Now that Sima Chao only has a woman like Love beside him, the person in charge will naturally not arrange two residences for the two of them.
In the past, in Wangchun Hall, Luo Fu slept on the bed in the inner room, and Sima Chao slept on the couch in the outer room, but now this room only has one big bed.
Seeing that Love was hesitant and motionless, Sima Chao looked at her and smiled bitterly: "Don't worry, if you don't want to, I won't force you."
With that said, he stretched out his hand to pull Love up and pressed her onto the bed without any explanation. Then, he lay down next to her.
Love glanced at Sima Chao beside her. She only took off her outer clothes and got under the quilt.
Wang sighed and said, "She was almost beaten to death by her second uncle, but she refused to speak."
Love asked Lan Tian again: "I heard what the manager has planned for today. I originally planned to go back to the house in the afternoon, can I still go back now?"
"The conditions here are not better than those in the house. I'm just worried that you'll be cold." As he said that, he held her arm tightly and pulled her into his arms.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Tai sighed longly and said, "The second wife has been uneasy ever since she was put in charge of the affairs. When Chu Ning enters the palace, everything will settle down. Let's bring Luo back."
Hearing this, Love looked at Sima Chao and said, "It can be seen that Chu Ge was probably hidden by Xie, otherwise this person would not have disappeared."
Love couldn't resist him, so she just repeated in a low voice: "You said you wouldn't force me."
Externally, it was only said that Xie's married daughter worked too hard and unfortunately fell ill and could not get up, so she left it to Wang to take care of her. In fact, after Mrs. Xie returned home, she was locked up in a secret room and tortured by Sima Zhengren. After listening to Sima Chao's words, Sima Zhengren was convinced that Mr. Xie hid Sima Chuge in order to allow his daughter to enter the palace. After being beaten to death by Sima Zhengren with a whip, he was locked in a room and guarded tightly by servants and wives.
When Xie's daughter Sima Chuning heard that she would be replaced in the palace, she knelt outside Sima Zhengren's palace all day and night without rest. However, Sima Zhengren didn't even show his face and only ordered someone to pass the message to her.
If she behaves nonsense and refuses to enter the palace, Sima Zhengren will divorce her mother Xie.
After hearing this, the wife said angrily: "These people are really talking nonsense about Wuying."
Lan Tian looked at Love and replied: "The steward said that the Madam has ordered us to go to the main hall to offer incense this morning and return home as planned in the second half of the day."
Sima Chao felt the deliberate alienation from the person beside him. He turned sideways and pulled Love into his arms without any explanation. Love exclaimed: "You said you wouldn't force me."
Three days have passed since Sima Chuge was lost for no reason. Although the lady seems to be the same as before, if you look closely, you will see that the old man's eyes are black and blue.
On the 15th day, except for Mr. Xie and Sima Chuning from the second room, all the rooms in the Sima Mansion went to pay their respects to the Dowager Madam as before.
When he woke up the next day, Lan Tian came in to serve him. In front of Sima Chao, Love pretended to be concerned and asked, "What happened last night? Have you heard any news about your cousin?"
Although Wang didn’t like the Luo family, she looked down upon the Xie family even more. After hearing what the Dowager said, she tentatively asked, “Mother-in-law wants to restore the Luo family’s status.”
Today's sacrifices will be carried out as usual. In order to deceive others and reduce the negative impact, the time for returning to the city is also the same as before.
The Sima Mansion was still busy with the matter of sending the daughter into the palace, and all the complicated matters were carried out in an orderly manner, but this time the person in charge of the affairs was changed from Xie to Wang.
Seventy-seven. Seventy-six. One hundred and seventy-nine. Two hundred and one
The Sima family is currently very popular in the court. It is undoubtedly a shame for the Sima family to lose the Sima girl who is about to enter the palace. Therefore, brothers Sima Zhengde and Sima Zhengren saw that they could not find anyone after searching all night, so they immediately decided to replace Sima Chuning with Sima Chuning.
Sima Chao nodded slightly and said: "The second sister is the daughter of the second brother-in-law. The second uncle will decide this matter himself."
Lantian replied: "I searched all night last night and searched all over the villa, but I still couldn't find the second lady."
He lost his granddaughter for no reason. Although the old man was relieved, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
Sima Chuning knew that it was irreversible and no longer dared to mess around. Like Sima Chuge, she was detained in the courtyard and learned the palace rules and etiquette endlessly every day.
Sima Chuge and Sima Chuyun are both legitimate daughters of the second wife, and the two daughters are of the same age. Even if some rumors are revealed in the inner court, it is not a big deal.
Sima Chao raised his hand to extinguish the candle beside the bed, and the room suddenly fell into darkness. Love subconsciously moved towards the bed.
Sima Chao looked at Love, who was held in his arms, and said to her gently: "You have suffered many changes, and I know you have concerns. Afu, I can wait until you can truly accept me."
His slightly obsessed eyes were glued to Love, and he could only hear her opening and closing her little mouth talking about Sima Chuge, but what Sima Chao was thinking about was the beauty of last night. Regarding Sima Chuge, He really didn't have time to think.
As he spoke, he kissed her gently on the forehead. He seemed to be afraid of startling the little girl in his arms, so he kissed her lightly and quickly.
The bright moonlight shines into the house, reflecting it softly.
Wang said: "The people who are looking after Chu Ge are all arranged by Xie. This matter has nothing to do with her."
After the men went out after paying homage to the Madam, Mrs. Wang suggested to the Madam: "The matter of Chu Ge is really strange. It really makes people have to think about it. Although my daughter-in-law has strictly ordered people not to talk too much these days, but Even if the people below don't say anything, they still have ghosts in their hearts, and the daughter-in-law seems to be saying that the second girl has been captured by a demon."
At this moment, Sima Chao had no intention of thinking about Sima Chuge. He was sitting upright on the bed, but in his mind was still the sweetness of sleeping with her last night. Although she was still unwilling to commit to him, they could stay together for a whole day. Night, for Sima Chao, is also a wonderful thing.
Sima Chao held her in his arms with one hand and gently stroked the hair of the person in his arms with the other, and replied: "Don't be afraid. When it comes to you, I always keep my word."
Love's face remained the same, but there was a trace of imperceptible joy in her eyes. She said as if it was unintentional: "It's okay. I was worried that I would be detained here because of my cousin's affairs. What I brought out this time Not much, but if we can’t walk, it will be a bit troublesome.”
Mrs. Tai glanced at Mrs. Wang and replied: "As the daughter of Luo's guilty minister, it is impossible for me to sit back as the wife now. Since Mrs. Xie is useless, the second house cannot be left without someone in charge. Let's let it go." Luo is in charge, but as for the entertainment outside, you can take care of it first."
Mrs. Wang happily agreed and then suggested: "Mother-in-law, although the theory of ghosts and gods is not credible, according to my daughter-in-law's wish, it is better to ask a mage to do a magic ceremony, just to remove the bad luck. "
Wang has done a lot of bad things, but now that she encountered such a strange thing, she didn't believe that it could have been done by the extremely protective Xie. Instead, she believed in ghosts and gods even more.
The madam waved her hand: "That's all, if you want to do it, just do it."
