The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill

*

The people of Dawei love lively occasions, and there are different markets and temple fairs throughout the year.

When Li Qingqian returned to the Li Mansion, the old lady told her not to miss the grandest winter market again.

Today is the fifth day of October, the first day.

Yun Shang was at the age when she liked to have fun. She held Li Qingqian's arm, looked left and right, and jumped around like a little rabbit.

"The girl hasn't been here in recent years. If it were this time last year, the Western Suburbs Market would have been bustling with a different flavor."

She took a candied haws in one hand and put it into her mouth while saying to Li Qingqian: "I heard that last year, it was Miss Song who got the favor of the Queen Mother and personally took care of it. No one knows where she got those ideas. Some of them don't seem to be found in Dawei."

Li Qingqian looked around and casually said, "Maybe it came from the surrounding vassal states?"

"Not really." Yun Chang tilted her head and thought for a while. "Even the envoys from southern Xinjiang, where the people are open-minded, were dumbfounded after seeing it."

Li Qingqian's hand holding the sachet froze.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Yun Shang thought that it was her words that made the girl mistakenly believe that she was still dissatisfied with Miss Song Er, and she was so scared that she didn't even dare to bite the candied haws.

Just as he was about to explain, he saw Li Qingqian casually pick up a sachet, pay for it, smile at the stall owner, and say, "This is it."

Then he took Yunchang's hand and walked towards the carriage, "We've bought so many things, it's almost time to go back."

Although Yun Shang was completely confused, she still walked back with her, carrying the bags.

After returning to the carriage, Li Qingqian took a long time to calm down.

Fortunately, I returned to the carriage, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to resist and tear those two people apart!

Seeing that her girl's eyes seemed to be about to burst out with anger at any moment, Yun Shang didn't know what was going on. She stuffed various snacks into Li Qingqian's hands and told her jokes, trying to ease her mood.

Li Qingqian held the little rabbit glutinous rice cake in her hand and couldn't help laughing. This little girl even gave her her favorite snack.

She reached out and pinched Yun Shang's cheek again. Well, she has gained a lot of weight in the past two months of following me, eating and sleeping all the time.

"Let's go back home quickly. If we're late, grandma will be worried."

Seeing that she was in a better mood, Yun Shang smiled and said to the coachman outside, "Go back home."

Li Qingqian lowered her head. It was a red plum pattern that her previous life self did not like, but she just picked it up at random in order to leave that place quickly.

Thinking of this, the strange feeling in my heart came up again. Why was everything in my previous life so real, but when I recalled it in this life, apart from the heart-wrenching hatred, it was like I was looking at a stranger.

This sense of separation has become more and more obvious as the days go by after I returned to Beijing?

Li Qingqian opened the carriage window a little to allow herself to breathe, so as not to faint from the suffocating feeling.

Yun Shang didn't know about her change and was curious about why she chose this sachet, "Hey, girl, are you starting to like red plums?"

Wasn’t it said in the past that those who sought red plum blossoms had to endure the biting cold wind? Doesn’t she like this selfless behavior?

Li Qingqian couldn’t explain why. Red plum… who likes red plum?

Jiang Lin was strolling around the market with the woman beside him, thinking of the beautiful figure in purple that had just flashed before his eyes.

That seems to be... Li Shuyue’s sister?

There should be no mistake. That woman has a cool aura all over her body, like a cold plum blossom in the snow, which is hard to forget once you have seen her.

Jiang Lin remembered that after being rescued by Li Shuyue that day, he seemed to have met her sister.

"Alin, do you think this is pretty?" The woman smiled and turned to look at him, but found that he was absent-minded, "Alin, Alin?"

Jiang Lin finally came to his senses, "Ah, what happened?"

The woman put down the jade ring in her hand with some displeasure, pouted her lips, took his arm, and said coquettishly: "What's wrong with you today? Are you so reluctant to go shopping with me?"

Jiang Lin smiled helplessly and scratched her nose. "How could that be? Our Lingling is a fairy in this world, how could I be reluctant to do that to you?"

Ling Ling then smiled, "I knew you were the best to me. Let's go, we've almost finished shopping, it's time to go back."

But the stall owner was not happy. These two people had been guarding his stall for about an incense stick of time, picking and choosing, without even buying one or two items.

So he deliberately said to Jiang Lin: "Hey, you two are newlyweds, right? I'm not saying this, young man, when you accompany your wife out shopping, you must not be distracted. I used to go out with my wife, but I didn't say a word to her. She ignored me for a whole month. This is my experience."

Jiang Lin pulled the corner of his mouth a little unnaturally, "Thank you for your reminder, but my wife is not that kind of person."

He came to Beijing to take the imperial examination with a wealth of knowledge, and always considered himself a noble scholar. He did not like the fact that street vendors would say anything to sell their goods.

When Ling Ling saw that he directly admitted the words "my wife", her face turned red with shame and she lowered her head.

Jiang Lin didn't want to spoil her fun, so he said to the boss, "This jade ring is nice, pack it up."

The boss then happily began to pack the rings.

When he was about to pay, Jiang Lin touched his pocket and frowned. Empty?

Yes, Li Shuyue was supposed to have someone send him money once every half a month. After the last time, he said he would send it later.

But how late is it? Not a single copper coin has been seen again, which makes Jiang Lin a little dissatisfied with Li Shuyue.

Ling Ling noticed his embarrassment and urged him, "What's wrong? Ah Lin, pay quickly."

The boss also looked at him, and his voice began to be filled with contempt: "Young man, why don't you bring money when you meet a beautiful woman? It's not the style of a man like me to rely on a woman for a living, right?"

These words were so sarcastic and loud that many people stopped to watch.

But these words just happened to pierce Jiang Lin's fragile self-esteem. Wasn't he just relying on Li Shuyue for his gigolo status?

He became furious and blushed as he was about to argue with his boss: "What are you talking about!"

The boss totally disdained his behavior.

The crowd of onlookers had already begun to whisper, seemingly looking down on Jiang Lin, who was as skinny as a chicken. Wasn't it obvious that he was overestimating himself for insisting on competing with the burly stall owner?

What's more, the boss did nothing wrong. You bought something, but why don't you pay for it?

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more serious, Ling Ling felt a little embarrassed. She had no choice but to pay the money in a hurry, pick up the ring, pull Jiang Lin up and run away.

It was not until they reached a place where there were not many people that Ling Ling stopped with a dark face and stared at Jiang Lin with dissatisfaction, "What do you mean?"

"Lingling, please listen to my explanation. It's not that I don't want to buy it for you, it's... I really have no money." Jiang Lin explained anxiously and embarrassedly.

"No money?" This shocked Ling Ling.

She knew that Jiang Lin was extremely poor, but since he came to the capital and got engaged, hadn't his wife-to-be given him a lot of money?

Even the large house in the suburbs of Beijing where they now live was bought by that woman.

As long as Jiang Lin keeps her hooked, how can she be without money? Isn't it absurd not to help her fiancée when she has money?

Ling Ling's eyes turned cold. It seemed that she had not taught that green tea girl Li Qingqian a lesson enough. She could even do something that would get her scolded to death.

Thinking of this, Ling Ling pushed him in dissatisfaction, "If you don't have enough money, can't you ask her for it? The family of Miss Li San's maternal grandfather is so prominent, a little money from her fingers is enough for us to live for a whole year!"

Jiang Lin's eyes flashed with confusion: "Miss Li San? The one I'm engaged to is Miss Li Si."

Ling Ling was stunned. "W-what? Li Shuyue?"

Jiang Lin nodded and looked at her curiously, "Is Miss Li San's maternal family very prominent? How did you know that?"

"I, I don't know," Ling Ling shook her head in denial, and then added, "Then the money you had before was given to you by Miss Li Si, right? Go ask her for it again."

Jiang Lin blushed and waved his hands, then walked aside. "She hasn't given me money for a while now, how can I ask for it?"

Ling Ling rolled her eyes and said, "Then why don't you take this opportunity to pretend to care about her and see if she has encountered any problems recently? Maybe because of your active concern, she will remember to send the money."

Seeing that he was still unmoved, Ling Ling said, "Also, your aunt is sick, and she can't be without medicine. Think about where to get the money from."

After saying that, he walked towards the suburbs of Beijing, towards the house that Li Shuyue had bought for Jiang Lin, without looking back.

Jiang Lin looked up at her back. Most of the money was spent on her. Ling Ling was covered with jingling silver ornaments.

For some reason, Jiang Lin found it a bit annoying.

After thinking about it, he shook his head and followed reluctantly.
