Love the Red House

Chapter 22: tit for tat

But seeing Sun Shaozu's pupils narrowed, with an unconcealable astonishment flashing in his eyes, he lost his voice and said, "The letter of divorce? I heard it right, how dare you say such a thing?" As he spoke, he walked quickly to Yingchun, stretched out With his right hand, he grabbed Yingchun's wrist.

Sun Shaozu is a military commander, his hand strength is of course no small matter. Yingchun felt pain in his wrist and almost cried out, but he immediately gritted his teeth and held back, refusing to show weakness. To my spouse, if you divorce me, the master will be able to marry another lady from a famous family who suits your wishes, and from then on, the music will be harmonious, and the case will be as good as the eyebrows, isn't it a beautiful thing in life?"

Hearing that Sun Shaozu was thoughtful, he paused for a moment, Fang smiled, and shook off Yingchun's wrist, with a cold voice: "Hearing what you said, there is some truth to it, but you don't want to think about it." Thinking about it, your Jia family has always flaunted its noble family, how could you allow such a behavior? People from the Jia family will definitely come to our Sun's house to make a fuss, so how can you let it go?"

"How the Jia family will treat me is my own business, and I don't need to worry about it," Yingchun said calmly, "However, since the master asked, I have to answer. It's a change of heart, except for a few members of the Jia family, no one is sincere to me, if this is the case, why should I care about the reputation of the Jia family?"

Speaking of this, he raised his head, his eyes were crystal clear and gloomy, and he slowly looked at Sun Shaozu, and said indifferently: "As for whether the Jia family is willing to let it go, I'm really not sure, but I know very well in my heart, the master is very grateful to the Jia family. I don't have any taboos, otherwise, these days, the master would never treat me like this, so, today, the master will naturally not have to pay attention to the Jia family, just follow his own mind, that's all."

Yingchun's temperament is the most gentle and calm, she seldom utters such fierce words, after she finished speaking, her face flushed, her panting was slight, but there was a bright light in her eyes, she was so decisive that people dare not look directly at her .

But Sun Shaozu stared at her firmly, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, as if he wanted to see through her, half a day later, he suddenly smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Madam has a much firmer temperament, and her words are also well-founded, calm and unhurried, really It amazes me."

Yingchun was startled, couldn't tell whether his words were admiration or sarcasm, but she didn't care too much, she only had a faint smile, standing gracefully on the spot, as quiet as a shadow.

Sun Shaozu also fell silent, but his eyes still fell on Yingchun, staring at her without blinking, only feeling an inexplicable feeling in his heart, but he didn't know how to deal with it.

The four eyes met, but they were speechless.

This scene fell into the eyes of the people present, and they were astonished and surprised, secretly feeling deeply.

Among the several concubines standing by the table, a woman named Hong Xing was the most favored. She often ran wild in the mansion and never took Yingchun seriously.

Now, seeing that Yingchun suddenly changed her temper, and Sun Shaozu looked at her so intently, with jealousy and hatred in his heart, how could he hold back?

Stepping on lotus steps, Hong Xing went straight to Yingchun, curled her lips and said, "Madam Su Rili's temperament is so weak, now she dares to confront the master, she is really a shrew."

His long eyebrows were raised, and the corners of his lips showed a clear arc, and he said immediately: "Madam is from a wealthy family, why don't you know the truth of marrying and obeying your husband? Madam listens respectfully to what the master says, how can you talk back?"

Yingchun's eyes turned, she looked at Hongxing slowly, and said lightly, "Who are you?"

Hong Xing was stunned for a moment, then Fang sneered and said, "Ma'am, what are you talking about? Could it be that I've been home for a few days, but I've forgotten about me?"

Yingchun flicked his sleeves, with a cold look on his face, he emphasized his meaning, and asked, "Who are you?"

Listening to her repeating the question, Hong Xing couldn't help feeling a little impatient, rolled her eyes, and said, "Forget it, since Madam must ask, I can only answer, I am Hong Xing, the master's concubine, is Madam satisfied?" ?”

Yingchun's beautiful eyes frowned slightly, and said calmly: "So, you still remember that you are a concubine. If that's the case, when I'm talking to the master, when will it be your turn to interrupt? You said I don't understand the rules, Is it true that you don't distinguish between superiority and inferiority like you, and you can be considered polite?"

When Hong Xing heard this, she couldn't help becoming furious, and shouted: "What kind of person is that, after listening to Madam, don't you think I'm in your eyes?"

"Of course," Yingchun answered without a moment's hesitation, with indifference in her voice, "You and I have different identities, why should I take you seriously?"

Seeing her being so indifferent and arrogant, Hong Xing felt even more annoyed, her long eyebrows slanted, she glared at Ying Chun, her eyes were red, as if she could spew fire.

Yingchun smiled slightly, looking back at her calmly, her proud and calm demeanor was fully revealed at this moment.

Looking at each other for a long time, Hong Xing couldn't help but feel a little discouraged because Yingchun didn't retreat half a step. She turned her eyes and suddenly turned to look at Sun Shaozu. She waved the champagne in her hand and said delicately: "Look, my lord, my wife is bullying me." Saying, As soon as his body was crooked, he fell on Sun Shaozu's body, with a charming and pitiful appearance.

If it was normal, Sun Shaozu would definitely hug her and scold Yingchun angrily, but at this moment, the ordinary Yingchun was reborn, which shocked his heart deeply, and he couldn't care about anything else.

But after a while, Sun Shaozu raised his hand, pushed Hongxing away, and at the same time said in a cold voice: "Calm down, I'm talking to Madam, it's really not your concubine's turn to interrupt."

After hearing this, Hong Xing was stunned for a long time, and felt more and more wronged in her heart, but because Sun Shaozu and Yingchun had gone out of their normal ways, she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only retreat into the distance in resentment.

If so, no one in the room dared to speak again, and it was completely quiet.

After a long time, Sun Shaozu suddenly stepped towards Yingchun, stopped half a step away from her, raised his right hand high, as if he wanted to caress her cheek, and seemed to want to slap her, with a strange expression on his face , making it difficult to see clearly.

When everyone saw this, they all looked at each other, not knowing what it meant, Xiuju was especially nervous, the blood on his face faded, but because he was only a maidservant, he had to keep silent.

Yingchun raised her eyebrows, suspecting that Sun Shaozu probably wanted to beat herself. If she had changed before, she would have gathered her clothes and knelt down, weeping and begging for mercy. This man bowed his head?

Settling her mind, Yingchun raised her head proudly, and what remained in everyone's eyes was a calm and beautiful smile, with a dazzling Tsinghua, and a soft but clear voice, without any fear: "Why, does the master want to repeat the old trick again? I will do it myself. Standing here, let the master beat and scold, but before the master beats me, I want to ask the master, a dignified man of seven feet does not go to the frontier to make meritorious deeds, and does not plead for the people in the court, but only bullies an unarmed and unable to resist by force Ladies in the boudoir, don't you feel ashamed in the bottom of your heart?"

Her words were obviously agitated, Sun Shaozu raised his thick eyebrows, and when he looked at Yingchun, there was a gleam of coldness in his eyes, and his face became gloomy.

Yingchun's heart trembled, but she didn't avoid it, the corners of her lips slightly raised, revealing a faint smile like the moonlight in late spring, with a calm and relaxed look.

The two confronted each other for a long time, and Sun Shaozu's arm finally fell slowly, and the coldness in his eyes gradually faded, but he changed into a expressionless expression, and said in a deep voice: "Madam, don't worry, I... will not touch you halfway today." a hair."

Although Yingchun was not afraid of him, after hearing this, she couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, pondered for a long time, pursed her lips slightly, and said in a low voice: "It seems that the master hasn't answered my question just now."

Sun Shaozu narrowed his eyes slightly, and was silent for a long time, Fang smiled coldly and asked, "Madam is referring to the matter of ransom with silver?"

Yingchun smiled and nodded, with a calm expression, she replied: "Naturally."

Staring at Sun Shaozu, the curvature of the corners of his lips was slightly restrained, and his tone was gentle: "Instead of looking at each other and hating each other, it is better to let go of each other and make each other better, so that everyone will not be uncomfortable. I have come to Sun's house, and the master has never had a good time." My complexion, thinking about it, I am not the only one who is uncomfortable about this unsuitable marriage, the master is also very dissatisfied in his heart, since this is the case, the master might as well consider my proposal, if it works out, the master can gain both man and money, Even me, I can find a secluded courtyard, do some needlework, and live my life safely."

Gently pulling up his cloud sleeves, Shi Shiran bowed to Sun Shaozu, and then said: "This is my idea, I don't know what the master wants?"

Sun Shaozu put his wrist on his chest, and said with a smile: "I never knew that a person like Madam has learned to press on every step and not give an inch."

Yingchun knew that he was mocking, but didn't mind, she just smiled and said: "People will always change, master don't need to be surprised, let alone take people like me to heart, according to me, master still think about me If so, make up your mind earlier."

Sun Shaozu thought for a long time, then raised his lips and said, "Madam's persistence makes me feel a little bit moved, but I still don't believe that the Jia family is willing to give five thousand silver to help Madam escape."

He waved his hand, stared at Yingchun intently, a cold sharp light flashed in his eyes, and continued: "If Madam really has silver, you might as well take it out first, let me have a look, and then make up your mind."

Yingchun pondered for a while, pursed her lips and said: "It's okay to read the book, but this thing is related to my life, there are some things that I should say clearly first."

He raised his head, looked at Sun Shaozu who had doubts on his face, and said word by word: "Master is a dignified man, he will never cheat on a weak woman like me, and he will never break his promise, will he?"

These few words she said were very vague, but the deep meaning in her words was understood by everyone present. It was nothing more than worrying that Sun Shaozu would do something wrong and take away her things, but she didn't write a divorce letter.

Because Yingchun and Sun Shaozu were coming and going, the swords were on the verge of breaking out, and everyone dared not speak easily, for fear of getting into trouble, but in their hearts, they were all shocked by Yingchun's transformation.

In just a few days, this woman has already made up her mind, and she has a sober and smart mind. Comparing before and after, it is a world of difference. How can it not make people feel emotional?
