Shen Zhixiu stood behind her, leaned over and wrapped his arms around her, hugging her up.

When he picked him up, he saw the scroll of scriptures on the ground, and his expression froze.

"Third Master, are you afraid that the scriptures I copied will be wasted? Isn't this thing useless to living people?"

Su Qingyu asked jokingly.

Shen Zhixiu pulled the chair next to him and sat down, then pulled Su Qingyu onto his lap and hugged her tightly.

Su Qingyu felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. Although the two of them had consummated their marriage, they were limited to being intimate in bed.

And in bed, she could feel less embarrassed with her eyes closed. At this moment, being held in his arms like this, their faces were almost touching each other, and Su Qingyu's whole body stiffened unconsciously.

Shen Zhixiu gently rubbed her head and said, "Qingqing, without you, I'm afraid I would really die in the northwest."

Su Qingyu wanted to say that she knew because he died in the northwest in his previous life.

After all, no matter how powerful a minister is, he cannot deal with such a huge natural disaster.

Shen Zhixiu buried his head in her neck and said quietly.

"You said that I must leave Shaanxi and Gansu provinces before celebrating the New Year. But I didn't finish my work. I didn't arrive at Qingyang Mansion until the day of the earthquake."

"I was still trapped under the beams, and it took me a day and a night to be rescued."

"I was holding this scroll of scriptures at that time, and I thought to myself that you were still waiting for me to get married. If I died here, you would really be a widow."

Su Qingyu felt as if her heartbeat suddenly stopped, and in her mind was the image of Shen Zhixiu being crushed under the rubble.

My heart felt like it was being torn apart by something, and it hurt like it was tearing.

She blurted out and asked, "Third Master is taking your life for granted. I've told you, how can you still not take it seriously?"

Even she herself didn't know why she suddenly became angry.

But when she thought about Shen Zhixiu almost dying in the northwest because he didn't listen to her, she couldn't help but feel angry.

A touch of ecstasy suddenly appeared on Shen Zhixiu's face. In the past few days since their wedding, he could feel that Su Qingyu was working hard to be the third wife of the Shen family.

But there was always a layer of window paper between them.

He impulsively told her the tragic situation in the northwest today. Unexpectedly, she became angry.

Are you angry... is it because you are worried about him and care about him?

"Qingqing, are you worried about me?" Shen Zhixiu hugged her tightly and asked in a quiet voice.

Su Qingyu was also shocked by her reaction at this time. She was a little unable to answer Shen Zhixiu's question.

Shen Zhixiu didn't care and continued to whisper in her ear: "Don't worry, I won't be like this again."

"For you, I can't do such dangerous things again."

On the day he left Beijing from Huguo Temple, he accidentally put the scroll of scriptures in his arms.

During those days in the northwest, he often thought of the scene where the two sat opposite each other in Huguo Temple. Later, when he was crushed under the rubble, he told himself that he had a fiancée.

Even he himself didn't know what made her engraved in his heart.

Shen Zhixiu's breath fell on Su Qingyu's ears, burning hot.

Su Qingyu nestled in his arms, her body that was tense just now relaxed completely.

She suddenly realized that in addition to revenge, she also wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.

Maybe God really took pity on her and not only allowed her to be reborn, but also allowed her to marry Shen Zhixiu.

The two of them just hugged each other, no one said anything. Shen Zhixiu's brows were stained with lust, and Su Qingyu had an obvious smile on her lips.

"Third Master, there is news from Liaodong." Wenzhu knocked on the window outside.

If there was nothing urgent, Wen Zhu would not interrupt at this time.

Shen Zhixiu's eyes, which were still filled with lust just now, suddenly regained their clarity.

"I'll go take a look and wait for me to have dinner tonight." After Shen Zhixiu finished speaking, he grabbed the back of Su Qingyu's head and kissed her hard.

He didn't know if it was because of his heart, but he always felt that the wanton entanglement between his lips and teeth today made him feel a little more separated than usual.

Su Qingyu's hand on his back was much hotter than usual.

After Shen Zhixiu left, Su Qingyu sat in a chair alone in a daze, with a smile on her lips again.

Zhenzhu walked in at some point and was stunned when she saw Su Qingyu's messy hair. Then she thought about the fact that the Third Master had just left, and she seemed to understand something.

She turned around and went back to the inner room to get a comb, and helped Su Qingyu comb her hair again.

After everything was packed up, Pearl said: "Madam, Manager Xiang wants to see you. You are at the pavilion in the northwest corner of the garden."

Su Qingyu frowned slightly, "She wants to see me?"

She thought Xiangdong would have her baby in the new yard now. Or, wait for Shen Zhiheng to give her a status.

What would you do to see her at this time?

If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Su Qingyu stood up and said, "Let's go take a look."

The pavilion in the northwest corner of the garden is remote, and no one ever goes there.

When Su Qingyu arrived, Xiangdong was already waiting for her there.

To be on the safe side, Su Qingyu told Feicui and Zhenzhu to keep an eye on their surroundings so that no one could see them.

"Manager Xiang came to see me, what's the matter?"

Xiangdong walked up to Su Qingyu and knelt on the ground with a plop.

"Please, Madam Third, please save my life."

Su Qingyu sat down on the stone bench and looked at Xiangdong in confusion.

"What did Guanshi Xiang say? I'll save your life? You almost killed me today."

"You are now the great master's aunt, no one dares to harm you."

Xiangdong kowtowed to Su Qingyu, then raised his head and said, "What happened today was ordered by the eldest lady."

Su Qingyu frowned even more tightly, "If Madam hears these words, you may really be dead."

"Are you afraid that the eldest lady will attack you and your children? I can't help you, you have to go to the eldest master."

Xiangdong bit her lower lip tightly, swallowing the words after a long time.

Seeing that Su Qingyu was no longer patient, Xiangdong spoke.

"Third Madam, the matter between me and the eldest man is not what you think."

"The elder...he...he used force on me."

After Xiangdong said these words, hot tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, and he knelt on the ground in despair.

Su Qingyu stood up and said, "What did you say? You said that the elder... forced you?"

Xiangdong started to talk about what happened, "More than a month ago, the elder drank too much and went to the warehouse to find some ornaments. He pulled me inside. I couldn't struggle..."

"And Madam, I didn't want to do anything for her. But she threatened me with my brother, so I had no choice but to obey."

"Third Madam, I want to make a deal with you."

When Xiangdong said this, he raised his sleeves and wiped the tears on his face, his eyes gradually becoming firmer.

Su Qingyu suddenly became interested, "Oh? Then tell me, Manager Xiang, what deal you want to make with me."

Xiangdong knelt straight, raised his head and looked directly at Su Qingyu.

"My servant helped the Third Madam to make it impossible for the Eldest Madam to have a foothold in the Shen family. The Third Madam ensured that my brother would not be tricked and that he would be able to pass the scientific examination smoothly."

"As for my life, it doesn't matter whether I can save it or not."

Su Qingyu chuckled, "Help me? It's good if you can save your life and that of your child."

"What can you help me with?"

"I never do business at a loss."
