After rebirth, the wife of the Houfu shark went crazy
Chapter 71 Xu Rong Can't Control It Anymore
Jiang Xiyu subconsciously touched her neck, quickly tugged at her collar and said, "I'll do it myself, you go out first."
Qing'er looked at Jiang Xiyu strangely.
He was fine just now, but suddenly he doesn't need her to help him wash and dress?
Jiang Xiyu glanced at Qing'er, and Qing'er didn't dare to ask any more questions. She could only put down the basin and walk out.
After Qing'er left, Jiang Xiyu went over to close the door, then walked to the bronze mirror, wrung out a handkerchief and wiped the teeth marks on his neck.
The slight tingling on her neck reminded Jiang Xiyu of the tooth marks that the man had accidentally left on her in the hot spring pool that night.
Thinking of the situation at that time, Jiang Xiyu's face couldn't help but turn red.
Which man is that?
Why does he appear there?
There are probably only a handful of men in the whole of Kyoto who can produce such a large box of top-quality jadeite and such top-quality medicine, especially this man, who is also related to Jinshan Temple and the hot spring pool.
Jiang Xiyu immediately thought of a person: King Qin, Gulin.
Jiang Xiyu opened her eyes wide. How could she forget him?
Gulin was suffering from a cold poison, and hot springs could effectively alleviate his cold poison. In addition, he stayed at Lanruo Temple that night, so the person who appeared there was more likely to be him.
Thinking that the man might be Gulin, Jiang Xiyu wanted to rush to his mansion next door to question him immediately.
But I still had my sanity, and after taking a few deep breaths, I forced myself to calm down.
If that man was really Gulin, how did he know that she was the woman in the hot spring pool? The hot spring pool was very dark that night, and there was no light at all. It was impossible for him to see her face.
What did he find out?
But since he knew her identity, why didn't he recognize her, but instead appeared in front of her wearing a mask and hiding his identity?
Thinking of Gulin's cold and detached appearance like a banished immortal, and comparing it with the man in the hot spring pool, Jiang Xiyu found it really hard to imagine these two people as the same person.
Or maybe she was wrong, and Gulin was not the man in the hot spring pool at all. However, since she had a suspect, she had to find an opportunity to test Gulin.
Just as Jiang Xiyu was thinking about how to test Gulin, there was a knock on the door, followed by Qing'er's voice, "Madam, are you ready? Do you need a maid to serve you?"
Jiang Xiyu came back to her senses, immediately wrung out a cloth to wipe her face, then changed into clothes that covered her neck before opening the door.
As soon as Qing'er entered the room, she reported, "Madam, I just heard them say that someone from the Zhou family has arrived, and they seem to have brought a lot of things. They must be here to propose marriage."
Jiang Xiyu was a little surprised, "So fast, I didn't expect the Zhou family to be so fast."
"That's not the case. Since Fifth Miss and Young Master did something like that, naturally, the marriage should be put on the agenda earlier. However, I think Fifth Miss doesn't seem to like Young Master very much. I don't know if the marriage can be held today."
Jiang Xiyu's lips curled up in sarcasm, "Just wait and see. Whether this marriage is successful or not is not something Xu Rong can influence."
As long as Xu Rong is determined to enter the palace, Xu Rui will never allow it. They had an affair yesterday. Whether for the sake of the reputation of the Yonglin Marquisate or for his future, Xu Rui will definitely marry Xu Rong to Zhou Lai. This is the best choice.
Especially yesterday, Xu Rong was so bold that she drugged Gu Wei, which made Xu Rui very unhappy. Xu Rui would definitely want to teach her a lesson, and Xu Rong would definitely not be able to escape this marriage.
Qing'er didn't know about these twists and turns. When she heard Jiang Xiyu say this, she couldn't help but smile, "That's really great. Madam, shall we go and see the fun too?"
Seeing her so happy, Jiang Xiyu also smiled and said, "Okay, I'll satisfy you."
After a simple wash, Jiang Xiyu took Qing'er to the main hall.
Before he even entered the door, he heard Mrs. Zhou's sharp, angry voice coming from inside, "My son Laier has become like this because of you. Now you have the nerve to look down on him. Do you have any conscience? You are the least qualified to say such things in the world."
Jiang Xiyu couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. It seemed to be more lively than she had imagined. She came at the right time.
Jiang Xiyu brought Qing'er into the main hall.
In the main hall, besides Zheng and Zhou, Hu and Sun were also there.
In the hall stood a red box hung with red silk.
This should be the betrothal gift from the Zhou family, but it looks a bit shabby, with only four or five tables in the hall.
In Yunchao, when a man from a wealthy family comes to offer a betrothal gift, there will usually be more than ten sets of gifts. The more sets the more it shows, the more importance the man's family attaches to the woman.
The Zhou family probably knew that Xu Rong had lost her virginity, and now only Zhou Lai wanted her. In addition, given what the Xu family had done to Zhou Lai, they were reluctant to give more for the betrothal gift.
"Mother."
After Jiang Xiyu came in, she stepped forward to pay her respects to Zheng, then sat down at the bottom, opposite Hu and Sun.
Seeing that she ignored her, Zhou's face turned very ugly. Coupled with the Xu family's attitude just now, Zhou directly poured her anger on Jiang Xiyu, "You guys in the Marquis' Mansion really don't know the rules. A junior doesn't even know how to politely greet an elder. You have no manners at all."
Jiang Xiyu originally refused to greet her because Zhou had been biting her like a mad dog. Now she was even making indirect accusations against her, and she didn't want to endure it any longer.
He picked up the teacup on the table, twisted the lid and gently flicked the tea, saying lightly, "Some elders are like crazy, they don't act like elders themselves. If you don't want to cause trouble for the upper beam, you can only ignore her existence to avoid being contaminated by her."
"You..." Zhou stood up angrily. Zheng quickly stood up and took Zhou's hand. "Sister, don't get excited. There's no need to be angry with a junior. If we have anything to say, let's sit down and talk."
In the past, Zheng would have been eager for Zhou to step forward and teach Jiang Xiyu a lesson so that she could watch the fun. However, after what happened yesterday, she knew that Jiang Xiyu had a group of noble people protecting her, and she was also knowledgeable about Buddhism, so now Zheng would not provoke Jiang Xiyu if she could.
After listening to what Zhou Qin said yesterday about what happened at the banquet, Zheng's mind became clearer and she knew that now was not the time to cause trouble for Jiang Xiyu.
Thinking of the suffering Zhou Lai had endured in the Xu family, he glared at Zheng fiercely, and after sitting down, his voice still raised.
"Okay, I won't argue with her. Let's talk about Lai'er and your daughter now. What happened between them yesterday is known to everyone in Kyoto, even His Majesty. As your sister, I want you to be more clear-headed. Xu Rong is a slut now. If she doesn't marry my Lai'er, who would dare to marry her?"
