The strange female partner in Quick Wear is too sexy

Chapter 357: Seizing the Minister’s Wife 9

Hongxiao was knocked unconscious by a thief last night and also took a sleeping pill, so she didn't wake up until morning. When she woke up, what she was most worried about was her wife.

When Hong Xiao found out that she was in the neighboring farm, she knew that her wife must have been rescued by Master Xie, and she immediately felt much more at ease.

When Hongxiao heard someone asking her to serve the lady, she rushed over immediately.

After Hong Xiao walked behind the screen, she saw Sheng Rao sitting in the wooden barrel. Her eyes were a little dazed, and there were traces of last night on her body.

Her heart tightened, but she immediately realized that this might be due to something that happened last night. She walked carefully to Sheng Rao and asked softly, "Madam, are you okay?"

Sheng Rao came back to her senses when she heard Hong Xiao's voice. She nodded, her voice a little hoarse: "I'm fine, just a little tired."

Hong Xiao felt distressed when she saw Sheng Rao's haggard appearance.

She knew that her wife had not been living a good life, but what happened last night made her feel that her wife had suffered a lot of injustice.

She gently wiped Sheng Rao's body, trying her best to make the lady feel more comfortable.

But the red marks on Sheng Rao's body were very eye-catching.

"Madam, you and Mr. Xie..." Hong Xiao wanted to say something but stopped herself. She didn't know how to start.

Hong Xiao could only shed tears silently, feeling sorry for Sheng Rao.

Sheng Rao seemed to understand what Hong Xiao meant. She sighed softly, "I know what you want to say, Hong Xiao. Something did happen between Mr. Xie and me, but I'm very confused now. I need time to think about it."

Hong Xiao nodded, she understood what the lady meant.

"But, ma'am, what can you do?"

Sheng Rao knew what Hong Xiao was talking about, but she didn't say anything. She stood up from the tub, and Hong Xiao quickly put a bathrobe on her.

"Hongxiao, help me change my clothes." There was an unquestionable determination in Sheng Rao's voice.

Hong Xiao responded and changed Sheng Rao into a light and elegant dress. Seeing the lady cheering up again, Hong Xiao's heart was also filled with hope.

"Madam, what are you going to do next?" Hong Xiao asked.

"Liu Ruyan was the one who did what happened last night." Sheng Rao only said this.

Hong Xiao was immediately furious: "How could Aunt Liu do this? She has forced you to leave the Huo Mansion, and now she wants to harm you again. If she succeeded last night, she would want you to die!"

Sheng Rao nodded, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes: "I know, she just wants me to die, so that she can get promoted, so I won't let her go."

"Then what are you going to do, ma'am?" Hong Xiao asked nervously.

Sheng Rao took a deep breath and said slowly: "I want to divorce Huo Changwen and completely sever ties with him. I want him and Liu Ruyan to pay the price for what they did."

After hearing this, Hong Xiao's eyes flashed with worry: "But, Madam, Aunt Liu is a concubine of the Huo family after all, and the son-in-law has always doted on her. How can we touch her so easily?"

Sheng Rao smiled slightly, with a determined light in her eyes: "Hong Xiao, don't worry, I have my own plan. Since Huo Changwen can indulge Liu Ruyan to harm me, then he can't have an easy time. Besides, I have Mr. Xie to help me, he will definitely help me."

Hong Xiao felt a little relieved when she heard this.

As the days passed, Master Xie had been looking for the right opportunity to show his courtesy to the lady. She knew that Master Xie had feelings for the lady, and she thought that Master Xie's identity seemed to be no simple matter. With his help, the lady's plan would surely succeed.

"Then madam, what should we do next?" Hong Xiao asked.

"Go and deliver a letter to your brother."

Sheng Rao was talking about her third brother Sheng Yan. He took the imperial examination together with Huo Changwen. Huo Changwen was the third place in the imperial examination, while Sheng Yan was the second place. He was also an editor in the Hanlin Academy. However, Sheng Yan was suddenly demoted one day. The reason was that he made a mistake in his job, which Sheng Yan had not done at all.

Sheng Rao was sure without hesitation that Huo Changwen was behind this.

The original owner had always reported good news but not bad news, so Sheng Yan and the Sheng family far away in Qi County had no idea what kind of life she was living.

Sheng Rao planned to tell Sheng Yan that she was going to divorce Huo Changwen. She believed that it wouldn't be long before her family members would come to the capital, and then the Huo family would be bustling!

Hongxiao took the order and left. She knew how important this letter was to the lady.

Sheng Yan is the third young master and has always loved his younger sister very much. After learning about Sheng Rao's situation, he will definitely find a way to help his sister.

After Hongxiao left, Sheng Rao sat in front of the window, staring at the bright sunshine outside in a daze.

When Xie Lan entered the room, he saw this scene. He just thought that Sheng Rao was sad about what had happened to her.

"Ma'am, I prepared breakfast."

Xie Lan's voice interrupted Sheng Rao's thoughts. She turned around and looked at him, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

She didn't know how to face Xie Lan. After all, the relationship between them had become a little subtle since last night.

Xie Lan put the breakfast on the table and saw that Sheng Rao’s face was a little pale, and she couldn’t help feeling distressed.

He knew that what Sheng Rao experienced last night was a big blow to her, but he also knew that now was not the time to comfort her. He needed to give her time to recover slowly on her own.

"Madam, please eat something." Xie Lan's voice was very gentle, as if it could soothe the pain in Sheng Rao's heart.

Sheng Rao nodded, walked to the table and sat down.

"Thank you, Mr. Xie." Sheng Rao's voice was a little choked.

Xie Lan looked at her, a trace of heartache flashing in her eyes.

He reached out his hand and gently patted Sheng Rao's shoulder: "Madam, I am willing to do anything for you."

Sheng Rao raised her head and looked into Xie Lan's eyes, an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

She didn't know how to describe this feeling, she just felt warm in her heart, as if all the pain had been healed.

"Mr. Xie, I..." Sheng Rao wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. She knew that the relationship between her and Xie Lan had changed, but she didn't know how to face this change.

Xie Lan looked at her, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes: "Madam, I know you are very confused now, but please believe me, I will always be by your side, supporting you and helping you."

"I know you are a good person, Mr. Xie, but too many things have happened recently, and I am very confused."

"Ma'am, I understand you. Don't worry. I will wait until the day you can accept me. So don't feel too burdened."

Xie Lan has been patiently comforting Sheng Rao.

He knew that for a woman who had always been staying in the backyard, everything that had happened in the past few days was a big blow to her.

The husband favored his concubine over his wife, and the concubine was cruel and framed her, drove her out of the house, and sent her to a farm. The concubine even sent people to harm her and take her life.

How could a weak woman like Sheng Rao not be afraid and nervous after what happened?
