After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

At the scholar's urging, the woman slowly raised her head and looked at Liu Yunxiang.

"Master, if I say ten taels of silver, will you refund us ten taels?"

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Yes."

The woman's lips were a little dry. She pursed her lips, then shook her head and said, "It's not ten taels, it's four taels. My husband probably heard it wrong."

The scholar's eyes widened, "Say it again!"

The woman took a deep breath and said, "Four taels!"

"You bitch, you...you lied to me!" The scholar was about to hit the woman, but Chen Chong, with quick eyes and quick hands, blocked the scholar.

The scholar's face was red, he shouted a few more words, turned around and walked away quickly.

The woman closed her eyes, then bent down to apologize to Liu Yunxiang and Chen Chong, "It was my fault for not making it clear to him, and I have caused trouble for you all."

Chen Chong snorted, "I think it's obvious that he came up with this crooked idea himself, but he blamed it on you."

"No, no, it's my fault." The woman blushed and defended the scholar. She hesitated for a long time and finally took out the inkstone. "He absolutely refused to take this inkstone. Can..."

She really couldn't say the following words.

"Chen Chong, give her a refund," Liu Yunxiang said.

Chen Chong nodded, "It's easy to say, when I sold you this inkstone, you already lost money. Now that you return it, we can sell it again, at least we won't lose money."

The woman was so ashamed that she kept mumbling: "I've caused trouble to everyone, I'm really sorry."

After leaving the inkstone, the woman took out two large bags of rice cakes from the basket.

"My boss, I owe you this yesterday."

Liu Yunxiang saw that the woman stretched out her hand. The fingers were thick and the calluses on her hands were thick. Her face was rough due to the wind and sun, and there were burn scars on her face. This was probably because the scholar did not want to admit her. It's probably because of his wife.

But the scholar was fair and fair. It was obvious that he relied on the woman to make a living so that he could study peacefully. However, he had no gratitude for the woman, only disgust.

"How old are you?" Liu Yunxiang asked the woman.

The woman was stunned for a moment and said, "25."

"Then you are older than me, so I will call you sister. Others may say this is inappropriate, but since I call you sister, it is inappropriate. Sister, your husband is not a good man, and now I rely on you. To make a living, and still have such an attitude, if he goes to high school one day, the first thing he will do is divorce his wife."

The woman shook her head, "No, it won't happen. My husband is not that kind of person."

Liu Yunxiang did not argue with the woman and only said: "My sister has said this, but she still needs to know what she is thinking."

After sending the woman away, Liu Yunxiang stayed in Nanmo Zhai because Chen Chong wanted to pick up the goods from the shopkeeper of Qingxiang Zhai. She didn't come out until the store closed in the evening.

She walked to Jingchuan Garden, and when she passed the long street, she saw Na Lan Niang again, that was the woman. There were very few people on the street, and she was still selling rice cakes.

When Liu Yunxiang was about to leave, he saw an old woman coming to buy rice cakes. Nalan Niang picked up a piece and gave it to the old lady to taste. When she raised her head, Liu Yunxiang saw that the left side of her face was red and swollen, as if she had been beaten.

That scholar?

The old woman also saw it and probably asked her. Lan Niang subconsciously covered her face with her hands and shook her head at the old woman.

Liu Yunxiang sighed slightly and turned into another street. When she arrived at Jingchuan Garden, it was still deserted. When she walked to the backyard, she saw the beggar dozing at the door.

"What time is it now, why are you still sleeping?"

The beggar squinted his eyes to see her, and then closed them again, "Thanks to you, I don't have to go out to beg for food. After eating and drinking, I can only sleep."

Liu Yunxiang ignored him and walked to the main door. Seeing that the door was closed, he opened it without thinking. Then she walked to the back room and saw heat coming from behind the screen, so she walked around.

Before he could see anything, he was splashed with water on his face.

"go out!"

Liu Yunxiang wiped the water from his face. The water was warm and had a medicinal smell. She opened her eyes and saw Yan Mu soaking in the tub, holding the edge of the bathtub with both hands, veins protruding from his hands, and a look of forbearance on his face.

She took another step in and saw Yan Mu turning his head and looking at her defensively.

As if he was afraid that she would pounce on her lustfully?

Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes, then put on a joking smile, "We are husband and wife, what part of your body have I not seen?"

With that said, she took two more steps inside, wanting to see if Yan Mu would be angry under her stimulation. Just walking inside, she smelled a bitter aroma.

Looking around again, I found an incense burner on the shelf with a stick of incense burning in it.

This smell was the same as the smell she smelled on the scholar during the day. It was so special that it left a deep impression on her.

She was about to ask Yan Mu, but Yan Mu stood up with his arms and appeared naked in front of her. Although she talked so much, she was still a little uncomfortable. She turned around to go out, but after taking two steps, A thud was heard.

She hurriedly turned around and saw Yan Mu falling outside the tub, his black hair disheveled, covering his scar-covered back.

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly went up to help him, and used a lot of strength to help him lean against the tub. At this time, he saw that his face was covered with water stains, and his eyes seemed to be soaked with water, hazy and wet, and he was panting slightly at this moment. Lid, her lips are extraordinarily delicate.

The handsome man was still very lethal, and Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"I'll help you...well..."

Liu Yunxiang was thrown to the ground by Yan Mu and then kissed. She couldn't help but widen her eyes and looked at Yan Mu. She saw that he looked a little confused and his consciousness seemed unclear.

She pushed him, and he pressed her hands angrily, his eyes turning red.

She kissed him back gently to calm his impatience. After he calmed down, she took out her hands and put her arms around his neck.

There was water on him, which soaked her clothes. He eagerly tore her clothes apart, and she helped him untie her clothes.

The passion was getting stronger, but he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then weakly pressed on her.

Liu Yunxiang sighed, struggled to push the person to the side, and sat up again to see that his face was fine, but he just spit out a mouthful of black blood. Liu Yunxiang helped him up and put him on the bed outside, letting him lie down and covering him with a quilt.

"I'm going to find Hongzhu!"

She said she wanted to go, but then she thought of something. She looked down at her clothes, hurriedly tidied them up and tied her belt. Then she looked at Yan Mu, who turned away with a blushing face.

"No matter how anxious you are, you have to wait until the injury heals." She joked.

"I'm in no hurry."

"I was so anxious that I almost cried."

"No……"

"Oh, I'm in a hurry, can't I?"

Yan Mu's face turned redder now, and he simply turned around and ignored Liu Yunxiang.

Liu Yunxiang was about to go find Hongzhu, but the door to the main room opened first.

"The lady is inside!" said the beggar.

"Hey, didn't I tell you not to let others in?" This was Hongzhu's voice.

"She is not someone else, just a couple."

"Oh."

"Oh what, it's probably very hot right now, so don't go in."

The corners of Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, "Hongzhu, come in."

It was quiet outside for a moment, and soon Hongzhu came in. The little girl felt a little uncomfortable, while the beggar smiled mischievously.

Liu Yunxiang coughed dryly, "What's going on?"

It was obvious that Yan Mu was not in a good state, as if he was aroused by something.

Hongzhu pursed her lips and said, "The room is scented with vine incense."

"Manxiang?" Liu Yunxiang was a little surprised, "So it is filled with mango scent!"

An Hong framed her for using vine incense in Nanhonglou. Today she smelled that the scholar's scent was also vine incense. Hongzhu used vine incense to treat Yan Mu's illness...
