Maid of a wealthy family

Chapter 37 Ning's Jealousy (1)
But before she finished speaking, Chrysanthemum trembled violently again, and immediately stopped talking.She thought, why did she persuade Long Gui to kill someone?That's a matter of Zheyangshou!Moreover, murder pays for life, if the government catches Long Gui, he will die.Thinking of this, she immediately changed her mind and said, "No! No! Brother Long Gui, don't kill people! Don't kill people!"

What frightened her even more was that she then thought that if Ran Longgui really killed the master and the others, then she would have nothing to rely on.What if the baby in the belly is born?Could it be that he was allowed to live in the world without knowing why?She cried out again in her heart, no!No matter what, he should have a father!Thinking of the child, Chrysanthemum gradually became calmer.The sense of happiness that had erupted quietly in the past came to her again.Although it wasn't obvious at the time, she did feel a sense of responsibility.At this time, everything about the past few months in Lan Mansion flooded into his mind unknowingly.She suddenly felt that she had become a heartless woman, a wooden person without blood and flesh?Yes, although the Lan family was sorry for themselves, they still wanted them to be ghosts under the sword!And, there is her own child... Thinking of this, Chrysanthemum trembled again.She suddenly felt that she had made the biggest mistake in the world.She should have persuaded the old lady, madam and master not to go to Liujiang Field just now.Or, she should tell them the truth... no, the truth cannot be told, but they should be persuaded.But what should we do now?What to do... At this moment, she suddenly had the courage to stand up.She looked around, as if looking for ideas.Her eyes fell on the clothes she had taken off on the bed, and stopped on the western-style jacket.The scene of that evening when Lan Hongen gave her clothes and then she leaned on the master's shoulders appeared in front of her eyes. Her heart seemed to be hit twice by something, and she felt that she had the responsibility to protect Lan Hongen and not let him die. Not at all!After all, he is the father of the little thing in the belly... Chrysanthemum seemed to see the swords and blood on the field of Liujiang, and her body trembled again and again.After a while, I suddenly shouted again in my heart: "No, I'm going to Liujiangchang! Tell them to come back quickly."

Thinking about it, she quickly changed into her clothes as if there was no doubt about it, and ran downstairs with a "dongdong".

As soon as he ran into the garden, the chrysanthemum stopped again.It wasn't that her determination was shaken, but she suddenly remembered that if Ran Longgui and the others ran into each other, not only would the master and the old lady not be able to save her, but she would never be able to come back, too?No, I can't deliver it to my door!But what to do, Chrysanthemum was at a loss.She scratched her cheek anxiously.He paced anxiously in the garden.The more anxious you are, the more you can't think of a way.In the end, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly had an idea: let Da Cui go.

She immediately became happy about this discovery, so she hurried to the "Zhizui Pavilion" Dacui, as if she had run a long way, and said to Dacui out of breath: "Dacui, hurry up!" Hurry up and go to Liujiangchang and tell the master and old lady to call him, and they will come back quickly..."

Da Cui looked at her puzzled, and asked, "Come back? What are you doing here?"

Chrysanthemum was stunned.She wanted to tell Dacui the truth but couldn't, that would harm Ran Longgui.If you don't make things serious, the master and the others may not come back.After thinking for a while, he suddenly clutched his stomach wisely and said: "Oh, Da Cui, my stomach hurts so badly, I'm afraid I'm going to die, you go and ask the master and the others to come back..."

Da Cui looked at the beads of sweat on Chrysanthemum's head, then at her pale face, and cried anxiously: "Really, Sister Chrysanthemum?"

Chrysanthemum said: "Really, they will come back late, afraid they won't see me... Ouch!"

When Dacui saw it, she really seemed to be afraid that Chrysanthemum would die soon, so she hurriedly said: "Well, sister Chrysanthemum, I'll go right away! Go back to your room and lie down, but you must hold back, ah." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chrysanthemum to answer, she left in a hurry.

Chrysanthemum watched Dacui walk out of the middle courtyard and into the upper living room, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, put down her hand covering her stomach, and walked back to the garden.

Next, Chrysanthemum fell into nervous anticipation.She walked anxiously in the garden.She wondered whether the master, old lady, and wife would believe her words?If they don't believe it, well, it's all over!She prayed for them in her heart, wishing them good fortune and peace.After praying for them, she begged Ran Longgui again in her heart, begging him not to act recklessly and kill them.Then, she begged the Bodhisattva again, begging him to use his magic power to stop Ran Longgui, and it is best that nothing happens.Begging like this for a while, must be more anxious, just feel like 1 years have passed.At last, feeling her heart pounding and her limbs weary, she decided to go back to her room and wait.In this way, when the master and the old lady come back, they will look sick.

She dragged her weary feet back upstairs and waited a while longer.Seeing that the sun had gradually moved to the roof, she calculated the distance between Dacui and Liujiangchang in her heart, the master and the old lady should have returned long ago.But why is it still missing?Could it be that the master, old lady, and madam really don't believe her words?Or Ran Longgui and the others snatched the master, and the old lady and wife have become their ghosts... Thinking of this, Chrysanthemum suddenly cried softly: "My God, if this is really going to happen, what should I do..." Saying, I trembled all over.Then, he fell on the bed involuntarily, shrugging his shoulders and crying.

She didn't know who to cry for.

However, at this moment, she suddenly heard a burst of chaotic and hasty footsteps coming up the stairs.

Chrysanthemum suddenly stopped crying and sat up.The old lady, the master, the wife, and Da Cui were already standing in front of him panting.

She suddenly opened her mouth wide in surprise, but couldn't speak.

After a while, the old lady suddenly went over and took her hand, and asked, "Chrysanthemum, you, what's wrong with you?"

Chrysanthemum's lips moved, and she looked at Lan Hongen with blurred eyes, then at Ning's, and finally landed on the old lady.Seeing that they were not injured at all, she threw herself on the old lady and burst into tears like a child seeing a relative.

The old lady, Lan Hongen and Ning looked at the chrysanthemum in puzzlement. After a while, after the cry of the chrysanthemum died down, Lan Hongen asked, "What's wrong with you? Your stomach doesn't hurt anymore?"

Chrysanthemum looked up at Lan Hongen and felt that there were many things she wanted to say to him, but she couldn't say them out. After a long while, she tremblingly said: "I, I just want, want you to come back..."

When Lan Hongen heard this, his expression changed immediately, and he shouted loudly, "Asshole."

Chrysanthemum was startled, and suddenly froze.Then, she saw that the faces of the old lady and wife were also covered with frost, and she knew that she had caused trouble.At this time, she said no, and she didn’t say no. After thinking for a long time, she lied aggrievedly and said, “Really! After you left, I suddenly dreamed that a group of people were going to kill you. Call Da Cui to call, call you..."

Before he finished speaking, Lan Hongen slapped Chrysanthemum on the face, causing Chrysanthemum to stagger a few times.Then he cursed and said, "You bastard! What day is it today, huh? The Governor is still waiting for me in Liujiang Field! How dare you..."

He wanted to continue cursing, but at this moment the chief housekeeper ran upstairs in panic—the urgency of the matter made him ignore Lan Mansion's "different inside and outside" rules.As soon as he got upstairs, he knelt down with a "plop", and then he slammed his head into the sky, and then said: "Master, God protects you with great blessings, and you will survive a catastrophe..."

When Lan Hongen saw it, he immediately turned around and asked, "What's going on? Tell me quickly!"

The butler didn't stand up, but still knelt on the ground and hurriedly said: "Master, you don't know, just after you and the old lady and wife left the venue, a group of masked robbers rushed in, calling your name to arrest you Those robbers are extremely fierce. They rushed up and didn't see you, so they wanted to arrest the governor. Fortunately, the governor brought soldiers here today. After a scuffle, the governor's soldiers wounded the leader of the bandits. No, those robbers ran away...Master, old lady, madam, you really have accumulated virtues in previous lives, the Bodhisattva blesses you to turn evil into good fortune..."

Lan Horn suddenly froze like a woodcarving.After a long while, he turned around abruptly, ignoring everyone present, hugged Chrysanthemum, and shouted emotionally: "Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum, you saved our lives!"

Chrysanthemum's lips moved, but she didn't say what she wanted to say.Because she had passed out in Lan Hongen's arms.

That night, Lan Horn didn't go back to his room to sleep very late.At first, he seemed to be suffering from nocturnal excursions, wandering around the garden in disbelief.The half-curved crescent moon hangs overhead, casting some faint light.The rockery and pavilions in the garden are covered in the hazy moonlight, quietly, as if hiding an ulterior secret.Seeing that Lan Hongen was in a daze for a while, sighed for a while, and kept looking into the moon gate for a while, Ning knew what Lan Hongen was thinking, and hurried out of the "Banxia Hall" to grab Lan Hongen's hand affectionately. Said: "Hong En, go to bed, it's getting late!"

Unexpectedly, Lan Hongen shook off her hand and replied angrily: "Everyone go to bed, who wants you to worry about it?"

Ning Shi was startled and froze.She looked at Lan Hongen incomprehensibly, and after a while she murmured, "Hong En, you... what's wrong with you?"

Lan Horn ignored her, just snorted in a disturbed manner, and then walked around the garden again.

Ning waited for a while, but seeing that Lan Hongen still ignored her, she had no choice but to go back to her room first.

Back in the room, Ning couldn't help wiping away tears.She thought, for more than ten years, Lan Hongen had never treated her so roughly, what happened today?Could it be because of the almost fatal incident in the morning?Thinking of this, Ning immediately affirmed her judgment.Yes, the husband must be irritated, anxious, and restless because of the lingering fear of this matter.After all, he is the head of the family, can he not worry about the safety of the young and old... Ning immediately loved and sympathized with her husband in her heart.She regretted that she should not come upstairs in a hurry, but should be by his side and say a few words of comfort, tenderness, consideration, and caring to him.There is a saying in the country rough people, a cow has a cow's butt and a cow's tail, and the husband is his own husband, who doesn't feel sorry for it!After Ning blamed herself like this for a while, the tender feelings unique to women appeared in her heart.Seeing that Lan Horn hadn't come back, she stood up again and went downstairs again.This time, she secretly made up her mind that no matter what kind of anger her husband throws out, she must be patient and restrained, and use her warmth and love to clear away the troubled clouds in her husband's heart.

However, when Ning went downstairs to take a look, Lan Hongen was nowhere to be seen.Ning was startled, and looked at the Hongyin Pavilion, Tongming Pavilion, Quchi... and other places, but there was still only faint moonlight and reflections of buildings everywhere.Ning's heart was anxious, where would her husband go in the middle of the night?Did she go to the old lady's room? As soon as Ning thought about it, she was going to visit the old lady's "Yiyuan".When I was about to go, I heard the voice of the old lady praying to Buddha and chanting scriptures from the Buddhist hall in "Qiayuan".In other words, the husband did not go to the old lady's room, because the old lady did not allow anyone to disturb her when she worshiped Buddha.So, is he going... Ning seemed to have been stabbed by something, she suddenly raised her head, and cast her eyes on the Xiulou in the Moon Gate.

Sure enough, she saw a yellowish light coming from the window of Xiulou.

Ning's heart immediately tightened, and then, a sour feeling seized her entire heart.She cried out in her heart: "Oh my God, he went to her room! It turned out that he couldn't sleep because of the morning, but because he was seduced by that bitch, that little vixen! He went to her room Sleeping in her room! Going to her room..."

Ning suddenly wanted to cry and shout, but she held back.She knew she couldn't cry, couldn't shout!If she cried, yelled or made a fuss, she would undoubtedly be accused and abused by the old lady and her husband.She remembered what the old lady said to her that night during the Mid-Autumn Festival, that she could not be a "disloyal and unfilial" person.Especially the rules in the "Seven Outs" mentioned by the old lady often made her sweat cold in bed.But she is still a woman!A woman who desperately loves her husband!Can she not feel jealous at all?No, at this time, Ning couldn't even think about being jealous, but the fire of jealousy involuntarily burned her cheeks red.She wanted to keep the jealousy from rising up in her heart, but the jealousy refused to listen to her, as if screaming at her, which made her tremble like typhoid fever.She remembered that in the morning when Lan Hongen held the girl in his arms in front of the old lady, herself, her servants Da Cui and the housekeeper, a burst of jealousy suddenly burst into her heart. In front of so many people, she resisted Living.But now, Ning felt that all internal organs were burned by the sudden fire of jealousy.She looked at the upstairs window again, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and walked angrily towards the moon gate.

She didn't know what she was going to do either.

When going upstairs, Ning suddenly stopped hesitantly.Yes, what are you going to do by yourself?Catch rape?of course not.Their affairs are still handled by myself and the old lady. Which details can't be imagined by myself?Are you going to fight with that bitch?Not at all.Even if she had the heart, she didn't have the guts.So, what are you going to do?Standing for a moment, she backed away flinching.She wanted to turn around and come back, but she always felt that she couldn't let go.In the end, on the one hand, she still couldn't help the jealousy that stirred in her heart, and on the other hand, she couldn't control the little bit of curiosity that kept coming, so she finally went upstairs gently.

Upstairs, the door is closed.Ning pushed gently, but did not push away.Knowing that the door was locked, she was stunned for a moment, then tiptoed to the window and peeked in through the open window.

Ning's eyes suddenly bulged.
