Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge
Chapter 45 The Cannon Fodder Maid's Counterattack to Become the Mistress 10
Qi Ning smiled and then kindly reminded her, "Alright, Sister Jing'er, Ah Xi is a good person. Why are you still thinking about Ah Fu? If Ah Xi finds out, he'll get angry with you again. You have to be careful not to show it in front of him."
After saying that, she patted Jing'er: "Let's go, let's go get the indenture. Look, the eldest young mistress entrusted you with these important things. She really values her sister."
After receiving the indenture, Qi Ning packed his things and temporarily left the Xu family, then went to the yamen to cancel his status as a slave.
She finally became a free person.
For the next month, the Xu family rushed to prepare for Xu Yanqing and Qi Ning's wedding.
Because of Xu Yanqing's health condition, everything needed to be arranged as soon as possible, so everything was kept simple.
Qi Ning didn't care much about the pomp and circumstance, as long as it was a proper marriage.
A month later, Qi Ning officially married into the Xu family and became the second young mistress of the Xu family.
On their wedding day, Xu Yanqing lifted Qi Ning's veil and went out to greet the guests.
In reality, his so-called hospitality was just a formality; no one dared to force him to drink. It was the eldest and third young masters who entertained the guests on his behalf.
Therefore, Xu Yanqing returned quickly.
Qi Ning heard footsteps, and after a moment, Xu Yanqing opened the door and came in.
Qi Ning had already removed her makeup and washed up; her long black hair was loose.
Xu Yanqing was dressed in a bright red wedding robe, which looked good, but it made his face appear even paler than usual.
The two looked at each other.
"Second Young Master, you're back," Qi Ning said first.
Xu Yanqing nodded slightly in response, then looked away and turned to close the door.
"Go to sleep first."
After saying that, he turned around, walked to the desk, sat down, and picked up a book.
Qi Ning got up and followed him: "And what about you?"
"I'll read a book for a while," he replied.
After he finished speaking, Qi Ning didn't say anything or leave. She just stood there watching him.
Xu Yanqing couldn't concentrate on the book in his hand, so he had to look up.
The two stared at each other for a moment, and Xu Yanqing was the first to give in.
"how?"
According to Xu Yanqing's plan, if he kept his promise and married Qi Ning, his mission would be accomplished.
They can't be like a normal couple.
Seeing that Qi Ning still didn't speak, Xu Yanqing sighed softly and said helplessly, "You know perfectly well that my body... can't be with you..."
“I know,” Qi Ning finally said.
"I know you're not feeling well and can't consummate our marriage, but tonight is our wedding night. You can't just stay up all night reading, can you?"
"I didn't plan to watch it all night; I just have a habit of watching it for a while before bed," Xu Yanqing explained.
"That's not OK!"
Qi Ning ruthlessly snatched the book from Xu Yanqing's hand.
She grabbed Xu Yanqing's arm: "Even if we can't consummate our marriage, you can't read books. Come to sleep with me now."
"I……"
Xu Yanqing had no choice but to follow Qi Ning's lead and was pulled up by her.
He was pulled to the bedside by Qi Ning, who took off his outer clothes and then pushed him onto the bed.
Qi Ning took off her outer garment, put on her inner garment, got into bed, and lowered the bed curtains.
Xu Yanqing was at a loss for how to react to Qi Ning's series of actions.
"Why are you looking at me? Go to sleep."
Qi Ning pressed Xu Yanqing's shoulders to make him lie down and then covered him with a blanket.
The next moment, she also crawled into the quilt, then suddenly moved close to Xu Yanqing's arms, reached out and hugged him, resting her head on his shoulder.
Xu Yanqing's body stiffened.
"Sleep now, my husband."
After saying that, Qi Ning closed his eyes.
Xu Yanqing was completely stunned.
How could he possibly sleep?
On the one hand, he usually goes to bed late, and it's still early tonight.
On the other hand, he always slept alone, and suddenly a woman was hugging him while he slept, so he didn't even know where to put his arms.
Xu Yanqing glanced down at Qi Ning, who had her eyes closed. He couldn't very well push her away, so he could only stare blankly at the ceiling with his eyes open.
He didn't know how much time had passed before he slowly fell asleep.
However, around midnight, Xu Yanqing started coughing again, his breathing became rapid, and he seemed to be having trouble breathing.
Upon hearing the commotion, Qi Ning immediately checked on his condition.
Perhaps because of his wedding today, Li Yanqing was more tired than usual, and his body couldn't take it anymore.
Qi Ning quickly got out of bed, poured a cup of tea, and crushed a mild medicinal pill, adding it to the tea.
Only after watching the pill completely dissolve did she walk back to the bedside, holding a teacup in one hand and patting Xu Yanqing with the other.
"Husband, wake up."
Xu Yanqing opened his eyes and looked at her.
"Have some water." Qi Ning handed over the teacup.
Xu Yanqing was feeling unwell at the moment. He forced himself to sit up, took the teacup and took a sip, but noticed that the taste was slightly off.
He looked up at Qi Ning, his eyes filled with suspicion.
"what happened?"
Qi Ning asked a question, and it took her a long time to realize what she meant.
She shrugged: "Don't worry, my husband. Even if I wanted to kill you and make you a rich widow, I wouldn't do it so quickly. Besides, tonight is our wedding night, so it wouldn't do me any good."
Xu Yanqing thought so too. If he died tonight, Qi Ning would probably be labeled as a jinx and blamed by her elders. Someone as shrewd as her wouldn't do something so stupid.
He then finished drinking the tea in his cup.
Qi Ning watched him drink it and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the latter half of the night, Xu Yanqing slept soundly for once and did not wake up again.
The next morning, the two appeared at Shou'an Hall to pay their respects.
The old lady and the second wife smiled broadly when they saw them arrive.
After Qi Ning, as the new bride, served tea and completed a series of rituals, Xu Yanqing went back first.
All the other male relatives left, leaving only the family of women sitting together and talking.
Seeing the smile on the second wife's face, the third wife teased, "Second sister-in-law, look how happy you are. Anyone who didn't know better would think that Yanqing married some rich and noble lady."
The second wife was gentle and kind, and because she lost her second husband at a young age, she had been bullied by her sisters-in-law quite a bit over the years.
Upon hearing this, the smile on her face faded.
However, she did not retort. She was not one to argue, and lacked confidence because she did not have a husband.
In other words, the second wife was a doormat.
It was precisely because of this that the Third Wife acted without any scruples.
The second wife could tolerate it, but Qi Ning's temper could not.
Moreover, the Third Madam's words not only mocked the Second Madam, but also humiliated Qi Ning by bringing her inside.
Ultimately, she still looked down on Qi Ning's status.
If Qi Ning says nothing today and lets her humiliate her, then even the servants will look down on her.
Qi Ning chuckled lightly: "Third Aunt, it's one thing for you to look down on my background, after all, my origins are indeed not good. But my mother is your second sister-in-law. It's rather disrespectful of you to say such things to mock her."
