After rebirth, the wife of the Houfu shark went crazy
Chapter 18 I don’t want to
Everyone heard something unusual in this intimate call, and their eyes turned to Jiang Xiyu. Jiang Xiyu picked up the tea beside her and took a sip, pretending not to see it.
Xu Rong glanced at Lin Rouyu, a disdainful sneer appeared on the corner of her lips, and she looked at Jiang Xiyu with a playful look.
I originally wanted to see Jiang Xiyu's jealous expression, but she just looked calm, as if she didn't hear it. There was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
After Sun glanced back and forth between Lin Rouyu and Xu Rui, she looked at Zheng with a smile.
"Mother, I see that Miss Lin and my eldest brother are in love. We haven't had a wedding in the Yonglin Marquisate for a long time. Why don't we pick an auspicious day to hold their wedding? It will be a great opportunity for the Marquisate to have a happy occasion."
As soon as Sun said this, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Xiyu again, and even Xu Rui subconsciously looked at her first.
Lin Rouyu lowered her eyebrows and eyes, seeming a little shy, but she was always observing Jiang Xiyu's reaction out of the corner of her eyes.
"This..." Zheng looked at Jiang Xiyu hesitantly.
If it were in the past, she would have agreed directly, but since she learned in Lanruo Temple that Jiang Xiyu had the ability to communicate with gods and Buddhas, she was a little hesitant.
He was afraid that if he accidentally made Jiang Xiyu unhappy, she and the gods and Buddhas would blame him behind his back. If he complained to them, the gods and Buddhas would bring bad things upon him.
"It's just a concubine. That man has three wives and four concubines. Plus, Miss Lin is my brother's savior. My sister-in-law is so generous, she will definitely not be unwilling, right?"
After saying this, Sun looked at Jiang Xiyu.
Jiang Xiyu put down the teacup, looked at Sun with a smile, and said without hesitation, "I don't want to."
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Jiang Xiyu to refuse so bluntly.
Xu Rui looked at her deeply and said nothing.
Lin Rouyu withdrew her gaze and lowered her head to hide the coldness in her eyes.
Zheng was originally a little concerned about Jiang Xiyu, but when she saw that she had refused to let Xu Rui take a concubine without hesitation, she couldn't help but say angrily, "They are Rui'er's benefactors. If it weren't for them, Rui'er wouldn't have come back. It's just a concubine. As the mistress, you don't even have this much magnanimity."
Lin Rouyu raised her eyes, her expression of grievance seemed too abrupt to be hidden, "Old Madam, you misunderstood. Brother Rui and I are not what you think..."
"Mother has indeed misunderstood." Before Lin Rouyu could finish, Jiang Xiyu spoke directly, "I'm not saying that I don't want Miss Lin to be a concubine. You just said that they are the Marquis's benefactors and they are in love with each other. Being a concubine would be an injustice to her. She should marry him instead."
Jiang Xiyu stood up after she finished speaking and bowed to Xu Rui. "Please give me a letter of divorce, my lord. I am willing to help you and Miss Lin get together."
Everyone looked at her in disbelief, thinking she was crazy.
Lin Rouyu was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Jiang Xiyu to retreat in order to advance.
Xu Rui looked at Jiang Xiyu with a deep gaze, then turned to look at Zheng.
"Mother, you really misunderstood. What happened between Miss Lin and me is not what you think. I brought her back only to heal her and repay their kindness to me. When she recovers, I will send her back to Hongzhou."
Xu Rui's words seemed to be explaining to Zheng, but he glanced at Jiang Xiyu from the corner of his eyes from time to time, and it was obvious that he was also explaining to Jiang Xiyu.
Lin Rouyu's expression stiffened instantly, but quickly disappeared. "Brother Rui is right. Old Madam, you have misunderstood us."
After Lin Rouyu finished speaking, she bowed to Jiang Xiyu who was not far away. "Madam, please don't misunderstand me and Brother Rui. Don't say these angry words to hurt Brother Rui's feelings. The relationship between us is not what you think."
Lin Rouyu told them not to misunderstand, but her intimate calls reminded them of the unusual relationship between them.
If it were in the past, Jiang Xiyu would be very angry, but after being reborn, Jiang Xiyu only felt disgusted.
An expression of sudden enlightenment appeared on his face.
"It turned out that I misunderstood. It's my fault as a woman in the inner chamber. I just heard the intimate tone between you and judged you with my own petty mind. I apologize to Miss Lin again."
These words were like a slap in Lin Rouyu's face, and her face turned pale instantly.
As if unable to see Lin Rouyu's embarrassed face, Jiang Xiyu actually bowed to her.
Lin Rouyu's face flushed crimson as she anxiously explained, "It's all my fault that I'm weak and can't walk on my own, so Brother Rui carried me. Brother Rui and I are like family, so I didn't think too much about it. I'm very sorry that Madam misunderstood me."
This Bai Lianhua is a whore but still wants to pretend to be a saint. If it were the Jiang Xiyu from the past, she would definitely be angry, but now she has already seen through it.
"Don't be so nervous, we all know." Jiang Xiyu said with a half-smile, then changed the subject, "It's just that there are more people in Jingdu than in Hongzhou. It doesn't matter that the Marquis is a man, but I'm afraid it will ruin the girl's reputation."
Lin Rouyu tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand, and looked at Jiang Xiyu with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
"Cough cough cough cough cough..."
Suddenly, he started coughing as if stimulated by something, and felt so weak that he seemed like he was going to collapse at any moment.
Seeing this, Xu Rui immediately came to her side and nervously supported Lin Rouyu, "Are you okay?"
Lin Rouyu fell into Xu Rui's arms and said weakly, "It's okay, Rou'er is just a little out of breath..."
"She's not feeling well. I'm going to send her to rest first."
After saying this, Xu Rui picked up Lin Rouyu horizontally and strode out of the main hall without even looking at Jiang Xiyu from beginning to end.
Everyone looked at Jiang Xiyu as if they were enjoying a show.
Jiang Xiyu's tactic of retreating in order to advance has temporarily delayed Xu Rui's pace of taking a concubine. However, judging by how nervous Xu Rui is about Lin Rouyu, it is likely that it is only a matter of time before Lin Rouyu becomes Xu Rui's concubine.
"My daughter-in-law is a little tired, so I'll take my leave first."
Jiang Xiyu didn't care about Xu Rui's attitude towards her. After all, no matter how bad it was, it couldn't be worse than in her previous life.
She just didn't want to stay here and be watched, so after bowing to Zheng, she turned around and walked out.
Seeing this, Qing'er hurriedly chased after Jiang Xiyu.
Everyone found an excuse and left.
Zheng was still thinking about the arson in the mansion and had no time to care about them. She called the housekeeper and said, "Please ask the Marquis to go and check and find the courtyard and place Miss Lin there."
What Zheng is most worried about now is that if Xu Rui accidentally finds out what she did to Jiang Xiyu, she doesn’t know what crazy thing he will do.
**
Xu Rui originally wanted to place Lin Rouyu in the guest house, but the entire guest house was burned to a mess and was completely uninhabitable.
Not only the guest house, but the entire Yonglin Marquis Mansion was burned beyond recognition.
Finally, under the guidance of the housekeeper, Xu Rui placed Lin Rouyu in Qinyuan next to Taolinyuan.
