Spring Drunk Chang'an

Aunt Lai complained softly.

As if he had no intention of gossiping.

In fact, it was a deliberate provocation.

"Qingru apologized to Liu Changan? This is ridiculous. She was born like a pig or a dog, how can she be worthy of it?" Liu Wenrui shouted and walked forward angrily.

It seems like he is going to hit someone.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly stopped and stamped his feet angrily, saying, "Mother likes her now. If I deal with her, it will make her unhappy."

"Tell Qingru to be patient. Once her mother's compassion wears off, I'll skin Liu Changan alive and let her vent her anger."

"I understand how much the Second Young Master loves the young lady, but unfortunately, I don't know how long I have to wait. It would be better to..." Aunt Lai paused.

There seems to be endless unspoken meaning between his eyebrows and eyes.

"Not as good as what?" Liu Wenrui asked with a frown.

Aunt Lai laughed and said, "Liu Changan is protected by the Madam, so she can't be punished. But she didn't come out of nowhere, she still has parents, brothers and sisters."

"If her family suffered because of her, she would probably be heartbroken."

"This!" Liu Wenrui raised his eyebrows and twirled his fan thoughtfully. After a moment, he suddenly smiled and said, "That's quite interesting."

-

Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Today is Liu Qingru's sixteenth birthday. Song personally prepared a small banquet for her.

The Duke and two young masters in the mansion also took leave and returned early to attend the banquet.

A banquet was set up in Rongxi Courtyard. Liu Qingru lay in the arms of Old Lady Lai and said, "Grandma, my mother is so mean! My father wanted to celebrate my sixteenth birthday, but she wouldn't let me!"

"Everyone in our mansion says that she is kind and tolerant, and that she sympathizes with the poor and the weak. But I don't think so. She is so kind to the servants and maids that she ignores me, her own daughter."

She hummed, complaining about her grievances and acting coquettishly.

Liu Changan stood behind Song, staring coldly with his almond-shaped eyes.

Liu Qingru is always like this, speaking malicious words in a spoiled and playful tone, causing people to suffer terribly and be doomed, but she feels very aggrieved and keeps saying "I didn't mean it".

Liu Wenbai and others would also say: She is innocent and cute, and doesn't think so much. It is Liu Changan who has ulterior motives. He has dirty eyes himself and also looks at others with dirty eyes.

"Oh, my precious child," Old Lady Lai said, hugging Liu Qingru and coaxing her. "Our precious child has suffered so much." Then, turning around and sternly scolding her, she said, "Song, you have been a daughter-in-law of the Liu family for more than ten years. In the past, I taught you how to behave like a mistress."

"You're supposed to take care of your husband and children, and rule with dignity. How come you can't remember that? You're always so weak. How can you be a mistress of a wealthy family?"

This is a very serious statement.

The mother-in-law accused Song, and she quickly stood up and knelt down, "Mother, calm down. It's my fault."

"You know it's not good, so why don't you change? You say nice things, but you always make my Qing'er suffer." Old Lady Lai tapped her cane and said disdainfully, "You, a daughter of Duke Cheng'en's mansion, can't even take care of a child."

"Really, what kind of tutor is that!"

Song's body trembled, bitterness filled the corners of her mouth. She wanted to explain herself, but she was too clumsy to say anything.

Liu Qingru raised her chin, smiled coquettishly, and had a proud look on her face.

Old Lady Lai asked again, "Where is that girl named Liu Chang'an?"

"I'm here." Liu Chang'an's heart skipped a beat. He clenched his fists and stood out from behind Song without kneeling down.

Old Lady Lai's face showed disdain. She looked at her lightly and said, "You look like a decent person, but you are not a good person. You are talking nonsense to confuse the master. You are arrogant and empty-minded. Get out of here. Are you worthy of being here?"

Liu Changan's cheeks burned with embarrassment.

In her previous life, she always looked down upon her, treating her as dust, and the shameful grandmother of the Liu family. This overlapped with the old lady Lai in front of her. She felt ashamed and annoyed, and almost wanted to give up her plan to read the scriptures.

but……

For my adoptive parents, for Wang'er!

"The slaves obey."

She bit her lip and retreated in shame.

Before leaving the main house, she saw Song kneeling upright, and Liu Qingru nestled in the arms of Old Lady Lai, laughing so hard that her body shook.

Duke Liu and Liu Wenbai looked at her with love, and no one pleaded for Song.

Liu Changan felt sad and her hands were cold. After a while, she gave a bitter smile and turned to leave. She came to the outside of the main courtyard, stood under the shade of a tree with her hands folded behind her back, and stood there blankly with a dazed look in her eyes.

On the gravel road, the figures of Liu Wenrui and Liu Wang'er appeared. They walked towards the main courtyard. Halfway through, Liu Chang'an saw with his own eyes that Liu Wenrui raised his leg and tripped Wang'er.

'Snapped! '

Liu Wang'er fell down, and the box in his hand fell to the ground, turning it inside out, and the jade bracelet inside broke into three pieces.

"You little slave, this is the birthday gift I carefully picked for Qingru. It cost me three thousand taels. Even if I sold you a hundred of them, I still wouldn't be able to pay for it!"

Liu Wenrui was furious and kicked him in the heart.

"Ah!" Liu Wang'er was kicked to the ground and curled up in pain.

"Arrogant and shameless! Come, take him to the second gate and give him a hundred slaps!"

Liu Wenrui made an indirect accusation and felt that he had vented his anger.

"Take him away, take him away immediately. Today I will let these slaves know who is the master!"

"Yes!" The servant took the order, picked up Liu Wang'er and left.

Things happened so quickly that Liu Changan was caught off guard.

"One hundred strokes?"

In his previous life, Wang'er was beaten with a stick, his legs were crippled and his body was disabled, and he died miserably. In this life, the witchcraft incident has not happened yet, so why did Liu Wenrui suddenly attack?

Could it be?

"It's me! Liu Wenrui is angry with Wang'er because of me!" she muttered to herself. Then she realized what was happening. She was panicked and frightened. She hurriedly took out the jade pendant given by Xiao Chuo from her bosom and stuffed it into the hands of Guiyuan, the gatekeeper. "Take this to Chunliyuan and ask to see the prince. Tell him that Liu Chang'an wants to see him..."

After saying that, he turned around and ran quickly towards the second door.

-

Ningguo Mansion, second gate.

Liu Wang'er's pants were stripped off and he was forced to lie face down on a bench.

He covered his aching chest, raised his handsome face, and looked at Liu Wenrui in confusion.

"Second Young Master, I didn't break the eldest lady's birthday present on purpose. Someone tripped me and I fell. Please understand, Second Young Master..." Liu Wang'er begged with clear eyes.

He also felt that Liu Wenrui was a good master who would not wrongly accuse him. Once he explained everything clearly, he would make the decision for him.

"You are still begging for mercy from me, young master. I have never seen anyone as stupid as you!" Liu Wenrui sneered and kicked the stool.

He had trained this innocent little book boy for more than ten years, and had originally planned to keep him for two more years so he could play with him with his friends, but he didn't expect that he would be killed in vain.

What a pity.

"Ouch!"

Liu Shuner was kicked down, and the pain in his chest made him feel dizzy.

Liu Wenrui's face suddenly turned cold, and he said sternly, "Beat him, beat him hard."

Keeping it for fun is a way to relieve sexual desire and feel comfortable. If I die today, it will be equally satisfying to see Liu Changan regretting his actions and feeling miserable.

Not bad at all.

"Yes, Second Young Master."

Upon hearing this, several sturdy servants carried Liu Wang'er to a bench, and someone else brought a board that was four fingers wide and three fingers thick and soaked in tung oil, and held it high.

The board came down on Liu Wanger's back with a sound of wind.

"stop!"

Liu Changan rushed over, shouting at the top of his lungs.
