Chapter 101 Feng Er, Don’t Be Cruel
In order to return in time before the end of the year, Wei Mingqi, who was exhausted from the long journey, had his joints creaking when he dismounted from the horse. Yu Qing, who was following behind him, looked even more listless and needed his hand to support him when he dismounted from the horse.
"Mingqi~Hurry and take a look——"
Xie Beiling at the door was about to go over to help, but she saw Mei Xing leaning on the man like a boneless person and complaining in a tender voice:
"Did I lose my butt along the way? I can't feel anything when I touch it."
"..."
Shi Fengque in the courtyard wanted to cover his face after hearing this. He felt that she was just like that evil Taoist woman, as she could easily say things that she couldn't say even if she was hanged.
Xie Beiling also felt the difference in their relationship from this sentence. She stopped and stared at Wei Mingqi.
stare.
Wei Mingqi was not a black cat and was not unfamiliar with this kind of look. He was confused and felt guilty at the same time. He supported Yu Qing and said like coaxing an aunt:
"Go back and take a bath first. Just massage yourself while you're in the bath—"
"You won't join me?"
"Goodbye, the bucket at home is small."
"……snort."
Mei Xing snorted softly, pushed open his chest, raised her slender eyebrows and said, "You have to buy a bigger one after next year, otherwise there won't be enough for the family in the future."
After saying that, she twisted her willow waist and walked into the side yard.
After she left, Wei Mingqi walked up to Xie Beiling with gritted teeth.
"Master?"
Hearing that cautious temptation, Xie Beiling looked straight over, as if he was looking at a greedy fat cat.
A moment later.
"Come in, we'll eat later."
Considering Shi Fengque who was behind him, Xie Beiling finally didn't ask what happened to Shi Fengguan.
Just keep it in mind first.
Wei Mingqi breathed a sigh of relief, and after following her into the house, he saw 'Aunt Shi' picking a chicken by the door. He immediately recalled what Feng'er had said to him on the boat before, 'My aunt said you don't mind eating either meat or vegetables.'
To be honest, he had been holding this grudge for a long time and was now thinking about how to retaliate. The usually timid 'Aunt Shi' actually looked up when she saw him.
"Mingqi, you're back. Feng Guaner said you did a great job out there this time."
"..."
Wei Mingqi almost wanted to step out and come in again.
"What, what's the matter?"
Seeing his abnormal expression, Shi Fengque's easygoing smile froze:
"Did Auntie say something wrong?"
"No no--"
Wei Mingqi glanced around, then picked up a small stool and sat in front of her, and asked seriously: "I just want to know how Feng'er praised me at home, please tell me in detail."
In fact, I mainly wanted to see what medicine she took wrongly.
"..."
Twisted, awkward, and with a dog-like face.
How could he say such 'complimentary' words? Shi Fengque's smile froze on his face, and he was so anxious that he almost cried.
Where can I find such a young generation who is so keen on asking questions?
She wanted to ask "Master Xie" for help, but when she turned around, she saw the woman in green busy in the kitchen, and Feng Guan was still changing clothes in the side room. She and Wei Mingqi were the only ones left in the yard.
How can we win this——
"Hmm? Can't tell?"
The young man in front of him narrowed his eyes, vaguely seeing a 'dog face' again, and his tone was even more suspicious: "Aunt Shi, you are not being polite, are you? Are you so distant and distant?"
"..."
He held the fat chicken tightly in his hand like a life-saving straw, and the woman's shoulders in front of him were trembling visibly:
"No, no, Feng Guan said too much, and I forgot everything."
Some women have done nothing wrong, but people still want to bully them. In nature, this is a biological instinct of 'survival of the fittest'.
"That's it."
Wei Mingqi pinched his chin and lowered his eyes, his eyes revealing a thoughtful look as he said, "Come to think of it, I can't seem to remember where I put the bracelet you gave me."
As soon as he finished speaking, his hand was grabbed by the woman in front of him.
"You--you think about it carefully!"
The childish eyes and eyebrows were filled with deep anxiety, and attracted the attention of others like the clear autumn water rising from a pond:
"Where did you put it before? I'll help you find it! That thing can't be lost! If it's lost--"
During the years since entering the palace, Shi Fengque had obtained countless rare treasures and luxurious jewelry, but as time passed, all of them disappeared like smoke, and she didn't care much.
The only thing she treasured was the set of jewelry that her mother put on her with tears when she entered the palace. She rarely took it off for more than ten years. She had poured countless emotions into it and it was no longer just a piece of jewelry.
Wei Mingqi was a little surprised to see her being so stupid and serious at first, but when he was about to explain, he was attracted by the woman's panic and crying look. Childish, gentle, timid, all kinds of impressions were intertwined.
To describe it as feeling pity for me is not quite enough.
"Wei Mingqi!"
As I was absorbed in watching, I heard a gnashing voice behind me: "Are you sick? You just came back and you're bullying my aunt!"
After saying this, an arm reached out from behind and locked his throat——
"Feng'er..."
"Come here!"
Shi Fengguan, who caught the "evidence" on the spot, dragged the prisoner into the room, first closed the door with his foot, and then threw the prisoner onto the couch.
"Mr. Wei, you——"
Before her angry peach blossom eyes could flare up, she saw the man on the couch suddenly hug the quilt in his arms and look at her with a 'weak' expression.
"Feng'er...don't be so fierce, I'm scared."
“…You don’t find it disgusting either.”
Shi Fengguan showed disdain on her face, and subconsciously picked up a ball on the table and threw it over, cursing: "I'll ask Master Xie to come over later, you just act like a daughter!"
"Hahaha - didn't you learn this from my aunt? What is this?"
Wei Mingqi smiled and grabbed the thing she threw at him and looked at it. At first glance, he thought it was a piece of white cloth used to bandage wounds. It was very clean and also had a faint fragrance.
"what!"
Suddenly, someone rushed over and reached out to grab the thing in his hand: "Give it back to me! Don't look at it——"
"Wait a minute!"
Wei Mingqi felt like he was pounced on by a female leopard. He was almost choking from the pressure. He subconsciously clenched the thing in his hand and hugged her tightly with the other hand, but the touch felt increasingly wrong.
"This is--"
"you give me!"
In the end, it was snatched away. Shi Fengguan squeezed the thing tightly into his palm. Then he tried to stand up, but found that the big hand on his back was like a pair of pliers.
"Let me up!"
"..."
The good brother was twisting in his arms like a maggot, but after a while, he felt something and immediately calmed down.
Wei Mingqi had been rushing back by land and water these two days, and he hadn't even had a chance to eat any apricots, but his body was as strong as a dragon or a tiger.
"You...changed to be like them?"
Feeling the strangeness and the fragrance of the high ponytail next to his nose, Wei Mingqi felt something growing in his heart like weeds.
There was silence in my arms for a while, and then it didn't last long.
"Um……"
With a muffled nasal snort, his brother buried his face in his chest, and the vaguely exposed profile was as red as a drop of blood.
Wei Mingqi's Adam's apple moved, and he reached out and held her face up. Shi Fengguan shyly turned away twice but ultimately couldn't resist him, so she could only close her eyes and act like an ostrich.
The heroic oval face in the palm of my hand was burning hot, as delicate and charming as a peach blossom, and the two petals on it were slightly stressed, revealing a little pink, just like the most beautiful fruit on a peach branch.
"Um--"
A warning.
"……ah"
A delicate low sound came out of his throat, and Shi Fengguan subconsciously covered the palm of his hand, but he was unable to exert any strength and could only let him play with it.
"..."
In the yard, Shi Fengque was picking chickens while crying. She wanted to chase after him to persuade him, but she felt embarrassed to delay as she saw that Master Xie was still busy in the kitchen.
The main dish of the evening was the fat chicken in her hands.
While choosing the chicken, he was thinking about his bracelet, and at the same time he had to pay attention to the two people in the inner room to prevent them from fighting. Shi Fengque was very nervous and gradually began to doubt himself.
Could it be that she is really the root of trouble?
As soon as he came back, his niece quarreled with him because of him. Now they haven't gotten married yet. What should I do after they get married?
She couldn't fight with her husband every day just because of her, a young girl, right? How could they live like that for long?
Thinking of this, she wanted to cry.
She always felt that the nunnery outside the city was waving at her.
That’s all——
If a fight really breaks out, she will go over and admit her mistake. After all, the bracelet was given to someone else, so whether it was lost or not, it belonged to someone else. It would be she who seemed dishonest, as she owed Wei Mingqi so much favor but still cared about this.
Another moment passed.
'No, why is it so quiet here? '
Shi Fengque, who was reflecting on himself, suddenly stopped what he was doing, listened for a while, and found that there was really no sound of quarreling.
A man and a woman walked into the room in the same manner as before, without fighting or arguing, so there was only one possibility -
It's bad! Feng Er is going to be bullied!
