Stealing the moonlight into my arms

On the way from the ancestral hall to the East Garden.

In a corner where no one could see him, Mr. Xiao began to take credit for his performance. "Huizhen, how do you think I performed?"

Old lady Song Huizhen glanced at him and said, "First place."

Song Huizhen suddenly thought of something and laughed out loud, saying, "Your granddaughter-in-law is no worse than you."

"Is Jing Ting's wife someone who is willing to suffer a loss? She's so reckless that she kneels down as soon as she's told to, and she's using a retreat-to-advance strategy right away."

Old Master Xiao pondered and said, "This granddaughter-in-law is much more cunning than your granddaughter."

"But as long as she's doing it for Jingting's own good, what's wrong with that? And Ruirui, she never learns from her mother's mistakes until she's had some hardship."

Song Huizhen didn't have a good tone when she mentioned Weng Yuqing.

It's his own fault that his son is so disappointing that he has three children and two mothers in the family.

The children on the palms and backs of the hands are all family members, so which one should they favor?

But in the final analysis, they feel the greatest debt to Xiao Jingting, and this bowl of water is destined to be unfair.

……

An hour later, Xiao Jingting was allowed to leave the ancestral hall, and Fu Runing followed him.

Before leaving, he did not forget to take the heater with him.

Weng Yuqing was pacing at the door of the ancestral hall, intending to secretly send something in, but she knew that the old lady's men were watching outside and didn't give her any face at all.

Seeing Fu Runing and Xiao Jingting come out at this time, Weng Yuqing was too lazy to even pretend to be polite.

Xiao Jingting's attitude towards Weng Yuqing was more ordinary. It was considered good enough for him to call her "Auntie" in front of others.

Fu Runing, with a smile on her face, walked up to Weng Yuqing and said politely, "Auntie, where are the medicines you gave me? I won't drink them because of what grandma said."

After she finished speaking, without waiting for Weng Yuqing to say anything, she quickly caught up with Xiao Jingting, took his arm and left.

Weng Yuqing looked at the two men's departing backs with a frown on his face.

When did they become so close?

……

There is a small building to the east of Xiyuan, which was allocated to Xiao Jingting and Fu Runing as their wedding house. They don't usually stay here much.

Fu Runing is the kind of person who walks around the house in slippers and pajamas. She has been used to being casual since she was a child. When she first got married and lived here, she was really not used to it.

She has to put on a fake smile every day when facing her mother-in-law, and her sister-in-law who dislikes her and makes trouble for her from time to time.

Fortunately, not long after, Xiao Jingting took her to live out. Although the Xishan Bay Villa was deserted, at least she didn't have to pretend to be nice to others.

Seeing Xiao Jingting's cold face is at least better than seeing other people's cold faces.

After all, she was used to seeing it.

After taking a shower, Fu Runing lay down on the bed, without drawing a "Chu River and Han River" like last time.

What to do?

She pressed her swollen temples and listened to the sound of water in the bathroom stop, but her head was still swollen and aching.

There was a rustling sound behind me. The man got into bed and the light in the bedroom dimmed.

Fu Runing recalled the first year of their marriage. At that time, they lost their first child and had a uterine curettage. The doctor recommended that they not have sex for three months.

And they didn't.

At that time, Xiao Jingting was forced to marry her, and he probably didn't want to even look at her.

A long time passed like this, until one day, Xiao Jingting went out for a social event and came back very late. When she heard the noise, she went down to greet him as soon as possible.

Maybe he had drunk some wine that day, so the way he looked at her was different from usual.

Deep, yet burning.

What happened next happened naturally, and that was their belated wedding night.

Later, they seemed to be just like a normal couple, except that they were together less often, but they never stopped having sex.

Perhaps the days in the next two years were so normal that she forgot how much Xiao Jingting hated her before.

The scene by the river today was the real Fu Zheng from the past.

It was Fu Zheng who had warned her countless times to stay away from him.

late at night.

Fu Runing stared at the dark ceiling and couldn't fall asleep.

Her repeated tossing and turning caused dissatisfaction among the man beside her, "What are you doing if you're not sleeping?"

Fu Runing listened to his deep voice and said casually, "I closed my eyes and had a nightmare. I dreamed that you threw me into the river to feed the fish, and then I drowned and my body was eaten clean by the fish."

"will not."

"I was thrown in there, but I survived."

The man's voice was light and emotionless, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Fu Runing was stunned for a moment. She knew that Xiao Jingting had not had a good life in the past.

But she didn't know exactly how bad it was.

The taciturn Fu Zheng in the past would not tell her, and later Xiao Jingting would not mention his past.

He will take the initiative to mention what happened today.

Fu Runing didn't know what to say. After a long while, she could only utter one sentence:

"...Well, I wish you good luck forever."

Xiao Jingting sneered in a deep voice: "I should just throw you down to feed the fish."
