The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 610
Everyone had some fun and ordered the servants to stop the ship. The palace people carefully helped the ladies off the ship. Li Kun and Dong Qing walked at the end. Dong Qing walked to the side of the ship.

Since she got married, Li Kun had always been considerate to her, but Dong Qing could still feel her husband's emotional changes. It was difficult for her to ask in front of everyone, and it was only when she got home that Dong Qing asked.

"I saw that you seemed to have something on your mind when you were on the boat today. What's the matter?"

Li Kun looked at his wife and asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"

His tone was flat, but Dongqing could hear the displeasure he brought out when he said this.

Dong Qing was taken aback when she heard the words, she looked back at her husband and said, "I don't know what you mean."

Li Kun smiled faintly, he is well-bred, even if he is angry, he is also reserved, Li Kun glanced at his wife, and replied: "After you know what I mean, tell me about it."

After finishing speaking, he left his ignorant wife, turned around and left the house.

Ever since Dong Qing married into the Duke's mansion, Li Kun has treated her very fondly and has never had any quarrel with her. Seeing his behavior like this suddenly today made Dong Qing confused for a while.

She sat alone in the room and thought for a long time. It was not until dinner time that the servants came in to ask for instructions to prepare the meal. Dong Qing came back to her senses and asked, "Do you know where the eldest son has gone?"

Her personal nurse replied: "The eldest son seems to be in the study." Then she tried to ask: "I don't seem very happy to see the eldest son going out in the middle of the day, but is there anything wrong?"

Although Li Kun is a military commander, he has a calm and gentle temperament, especially when he treats his wife with utmost care, so the servants are puzzled to see that he is suddenly in a bad mood.

Dong Qing frowned, and replied: "I don't know what happened to him today." She told the little girl: "Go to the study and ask the eldest son to come back for dinner."

The little girl took the order and went away. After a while, the servants served the food, and Dong Qing sat in front of the dining table and waited for him to return.

The mansion is still in mourning and abstaining from meat and meat, so the three meals a day can be served on the table are all vegetarian dishes.

Dong Qing was not a person who was greedy for food, but now she glanced at the vegetarian food on this table, she suddenly remembered the dried meat hidden by her husband in the inner room.

He was always so considerate, worried that she wouldn't eat well, so he quietly brought back meat from outside every now and then to satisfy her craving. She had told him many times, but he remained the same as before.

Thinking about this, Dong Qing couldn't help but have a happy smile on her face.

After a while, she heard footsteps outside, Dong Qing hurriedly got up to greet her, but saw the little girl she sent to find Li Kun came back alone.

"Where's Eldest Young Master?" Dong Qing asked with a disappointed face.

The little girl entered the room and replied sullenly: "The eldest son said that she will not come back for dinner today."

Except for the necessary entertainment, Li Kun usually eats with her. Dong Qing hurriedly asked, "But is he going out? Is he a visitor from the mansion?"

The little girl replied: "Young Master didn't say anything."

This little girl is called Shishu, and she is a personal servant girl brought from her natal family. Seeing that she was hesitating to speak, Dongqing hurriedly left the house and asked her: "What else did the eldest son say?" ? Tell me quickly."

Only then did the little girl let go and replied: "The Eldest Young Master seems to be very unhappy. The servant went to invite him back for dinner, but he just couldn't explain it, and said"

Seeing that the servant was hesitating, Dong Qing urged, "What else did he say?"

The servant replied: "The eldest son also said that he won't come back for a few days and wants to sleep in the study."

They have only been married for less than a year, and they have always been harmonious. Dong Qing can't understand why her husband is like this all of a sudden.

She nodded awkwardly, and murmured: "I see."

She ate dinner alone without knowing what to eat, but her mind was always thinking about her and Li Kun.

When it was dark, Li Kun did not return.

The servants in the house began to lose their composure, and the house was full of her people. First, her personal nurse came to persuade her to ask her husband to come back.

Dong Qing still didn't move in the end. After ordering someone to wash up, she retired from the maid and prepared to sleep alone.

The Zhen Guo Duke's Mansion is the most prestigious family in the capital. Li Kun, as the eldest son and grandson of the Duke's mansion, is the dream match of many famous ladies, but these are not the most important things to her. Nengwen, who was famous in Beijing, was able to enter the palace as a female official. For a woman like her, these powers and wealth are like passing clouds in her eyes. What she really wants is respect and admiration.

Now that Li Kun is ignoring her for no reason, it is a kind of humiliation to Yu Dongqing.

A woman like her would not bend down to beg for mercy with a man.

Dong Qing faced the rhombic mirror, and slowly combed her hair away, one stroke, one stroke, she combed very slowly, although she had some thoughts in her heart, she still couldn't let them go.

She simply put down the comb and opened the drawer under the dowry casually. There were several layers in the drawer, the top ones were all jewelry and the like, and the lower layers were stuffed full of small things like dried meat by her husband. snacks.

In the dead of night, after she dressed and washed, he would quietly open the drawer and stuff these snacks for her to eat.

He always said such an unshakable sentence: "Look at your skinny, how can you succeed if you don't eat some meat every day."

Thinking about this, Dongqing's originally depressed heart suddenly brightened, she closed the drawer, and without even caring about putting on her coat, she opened the door and ran into the night.

Dong Qing ran out of the courtyard gate. Seeing this, the woman guarding the gate hurriedly chased after her and asked, "Young Madam, what are you going to do?"

Dong Qing didn't care about it, she ran straight outside, completely ignoring the strange eyes of the servants passing by in the inner courtyard, she only wore a thin coat and her hair was loose, and ran outside Li Kun's study in one breath .

The lights were on in the study, and the little girl guarding the door saw Dong Qing, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Young Madam, are you looking for your son?"

Dong Qing stopped in her tracks. She was panting slightly because she ran too fast just now. She rubbed her chest and asked, "Is the eldest son in there?"

"The eldest son is here." The little girl's voice was clear and crisp, and she hurriedly replied: "Young madam, please wait for a moment, and let the slaves go in to report." After finishing speaking, the little girl walked towards the study with her feet lifted.

A lady from a famous family pays attention to dignified manners. For a person like Dongqing, she has never run so wildly in her age.

At this moment, she stood on the ground and panted for a long time, but her breath was still disordered, but she didn't care about it, she stared at the door of the study, the only thing in her heart was that her husband, Li Kun, would come out of the door as soon as possible. see her.
