After rebirth, the wife of the Houfu shark went crazy

"Yes."

I was also a little dissatisfied with Lin Rouyu.

Originally, he was very grateful to Lin Rouyu for saving Xu Rui, but during this period, Lin Rouyu kept pestering Xu Rui even though she knew that Xu Rui had no interest in her.

The gratitude I felt towards her was much less.

Xu Rui also walked towards Jingyuyuan opposite.

Ye Zi was about to speak again, but was pulled away by Deji, who said impatiently, "Stop shouting."

Ye Zi was pulled back to Xiangyu Garden by Deji. Seeing that Lin Rouyu was still unconscious, he immediately turned around to ask for the imperial physician.

After Xu Rui walked to Jingyuyuan, he found that the lights in the house were not turned off and the door was not closed. Xu Rui's face lit up with joy, thinking that it was the door left open for him by Jiang Xiyu, so he walked in quickly.

Qing'er heard the noise and saw that it was Xu Rui. She saluted him in surprise, "My Lord."

Xu Rui didn't see Jiang Xiyu, so he couldn't help but ask, "Where's the Madam?"

"Today, Madam brought back some books on medicinal diet. She was a little tired after reading them, so she has gone to bed. Madam asked me to hold the door open for the Marquis. Would you like to come in?"

The dim candlelight in the room had a fatal temptation to Xu Rui, but thinking of Jiang Xiyu falling asleep, Xu Rui paused for a few seconds and still refused, "Let her sleep well."

After speaking, he turned and left.

Qing'er looked at Xu Rui's back in surprise.

Didn't he move all his things to Jingyuyuan? If he doesn't come in to sleep now, where is he going?

Qing'er returned to her room only after Xu Rui had completely left Jingyuyuan.

Jiang Xiyu, who was originally "soundly asleep", was looking at her with his eyes open. "He's gone?"

Qing'er nodded and said in surprise, "I heard that you left after you went to bed."

"Don't worry about him, just go to sleep."

"it is good."

After Qing'er left, Jiang Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Xu Rui didn't come in.

She knew that they were husband and wife now, and if Xu Rui forced himself on her, she would not be able to resist.

If she had known in her previous life that Xu Rui wanted to consummate their marriage, she would have washed him clean and sent him straight to bed. But now, whenever she thought about Xu Rui touching her, she felt extremely disgusted.

She knew in her heart that Xu Rui had moved to Jingyuyuan and she would not be able to hide for long. Her mind was working at high speed, thinking about what to do.

At this moment, Jiang Xiyu, who was originally "soundly asleep", also opened her eyes, "He's gone?"

"He's gone." Qing'er asked curiously, "He's already at the door. He heard that you went to bed, so the Marquis left."

Jiang Xiyu frowned slightly, a little confused about what Xu Rui was thinking.

According to his previous cold and arrogant personality, he would never move in with her, but now that he has asked Deji and Zhuyue to move all his things in, why doesn't he come in again?

At this moment, she really couldn't understand what Xu Rui was thinking.

But she knew that she could not escape the fate of the first day.

She and Xu Rui are husband and wife. As long as Xu Rui wants, she has no way to refuse, so she has to think of other ways.

When Xu Rui left Jingyu Garden, he did not return to his previous main courtyard, but left the Princess's Mansion.

The servants outside had already been waiting at the door in a carriage.

"Return to the Marquis' Mansion."

Xu Rui got on the carriage, and the servants drove the carriage to the Yonglin Marquis Mansion.

In the time it took for Xu Rui to stick of incense to reach the Yonglin Marquis Mansion, and not long after he knocked on the door and went in, the housekeeper came in breathlessly.

"My Lord, why are you back so late?"

The housekeeper heard the doorman say that Xu Rui had returned. He had just fallen asleep and didn't even have time to put on his clothes, so he came here directly.

Xu Rui didn't answer him and went straight to the ancestral hall. "How is the renovation of the mansion going?"

The butler followed behind him and said respectfully, "Don't worry, my lord. The craftsmen are working day and night. It should be all repaired in half a month."

After Xu Rui and the housekeeper arrived at the ancestral hall, they saw many craftsmen working.

The ancestral hall was the worst hit area by the fire, but now it has been repaired for the most part. At this rate, it will indeed be completed in half a month.

Thinking of the task that Gu Wei had given him, Xu Rui said to the housekeeper, "There's no need to make them work so hard in the future. There's no need to rush them around working day and night. Just finish the repairs within a month."

The housekeeper looked puzzled as to why Xu Rui had asked him to repair it as soon as possible and why he suddenly changed his mind.

However, the housekeeper did not ask, and quickly responded, stepping forward to the craftsmen and saying, "It's too late today, everyone take a break and come back early tomorrow."

The craftsmen looked up at this and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Xu Rui saw that they were covered in dirty mud and their faces were covered in black dust, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work these days. Take your time with the repairs. Starting tomorrow, you can come during the day. There's no need to work at night, as it's unsafe in the dark. However, the double wages I promised you will remain as is."

When the craftsmen heard that they didn't have to work at night and could get double the wages, they all smiled brightly and said, "Great."

"Everyone, go back." said the housekeeper.

The craftsmen immediately left the house happily.

Xu Rui looked at the housekeeper and said, "I'm going back to the study to get something. You don't need to follow me."

"Yes." The butler knew that Xu Rui's study had always been a forbidden area, so he naturally didn't dare to follow him in, so he bowed and took his leave.

After the housekeeper left, Xu Rui went to the study.

As soon as Xu Rui entered the study, a secret guard appeared.

"See Mr. Marquis."

"Has anyone come into the study while I've been away?"

The secret guard immediately bowed and said, "Don't worry, my lord. We are guarding it well. Not even a fly has entered."

Xu Rui nodded silently.

Normally, no one dared to come to his study, and now that everyone had moved to the Princess's Mansion, no one dared to go there.

In particular, the housekeeper knows his temper best and will definitely keep the servants in Yonglin Marquis' Mansion under control.

After Xu Rui asked the secret guard to retreat, he walked to the bookshelf and turned a tiger head inside the bookshelf.

"Crash".

A door about one meter wide suddenly opened in the wall above the bookshelf.

Xu Rui walked straight in, and the wall instantly returned to its original appearance.

After entering, he walked to a wall and pressed one of the bricks on the wall. The brick instantly caved in, and a door appeared in the wall again.

Xu Rui walked into the door and walked in the long corridor for about half an incense stick of time before he saw the light.

After he came out of the secret passage, there were people guarding outside. When they saw Xu Rui coming out, they bowed to him and saluted, "Young Master."

The man was wearing a black robe and his entire face was covered with a black scarf.

"How is the villa?"

"Young Master, everything is as usual."

"Ah."

Xu Rui walked directly towards the path next to him, and the man in black robe followed him.

After passing through a winding secret passage, Xu Rui arrived at a high slope.

There was a valley below the slope, and an army was training in the valley.
