Madam, she is delicate and frail, and she must be pampered by the sinister prince.

Chapter 11 Never live an unworthy life again

Is Nie Huating afraid? Of course he is.

Xie Chongxiao was not someone who would become hysterical when he got angry.

But that face makes people feel unapproachable.

It was as if there were glaciers in the house that could not melt for thousands of years and could not recover for a long time.

The woman took a deep breath and frowned slightly.

Nie Huating mustered up his courage and stepped forward to hold the man's hand.

Her delicate palms tightly wrapped around his. The man's palms were rough, honed from holding guns and swords in the military camp for many years.

Nie Huating raised his eyes and looked into his bottomless eyes: "It's my fault. I will remember everything about the Marquis in the future."

Her clear voice is like spring water, gently knocking on people's hearts.

Xie Zhongxiao stared at her closely, deep and dark.

Nie Huating once again plucked up the courage, looked directly at him, and said clearly what he wanted to say word for word:
"Xie Chongxiao, I can promise you that there is no one else in my heart now and in the future."

Xie Zhongxiao withdrew his hand, his eyes filled with tiny gleams of light.

The man's posture was upright and his face was still stern.

Nie Huating's hands were shaking a little. She was afraid, afraid that Xie Chongxiao wouldn't believe it.

After a long time, the two people were in a stalemate.

Until Nie Huating thought he wouldn't speak again, he heard that calm and reassuring voice:

"It's been difficult for you to endure hardships these past few days."

Nie Huating opened his mouth slightly and wanted to explain, but he couldn't.

There was a hint of loneliness in the man's gloomy eyes, "You don't have to do these embarrassing things in the future, Nie Huating, I hate being deceived."

He didn't believe that a person could change in such a short period of time.

How could a person who had always avoided him in the past suddenly care about him?

She may have made expedient measures to suit the situation, but she definitely couldn't be sincere.

Nie Huating was stunned for a moment, at a loss!
What should she say? She didn't cheat on him. She was no longer the Nie Huating she used to be.

But will Xie Chongxiao believe it?

Xie Zhongxiao stood up, the hostility around him subsided, and he was as indifferent as ever.

"No need to please me, I don't care."

The man said an indifferent word and turned around to leave.

But I heard a woman shouting from behind:

"Xie Chongxiao, listen!"

"I didn't do all this to please you!"

Nie Huating's words reached Xie Chongxiao's ears clearly word for word.

"It's me. I really want to be your wife."

Sincerely, I want to make up for his kindness and protection to her in the previous life.

No, he had been extremely benevolent to her in both of his lives. It was her lack of understanding of people and let down this man's kindness to her.

She wants to make amends now, doesn't want to miss any opportunity to explain, and wants to treat him well all the time.

The man paused, then turned and left without looking back.

Nie Huating looked at Xie Chongxiao's back, feeling a sense of loss and uneasiness gradually rising in his heart.

Xie Chongxiao didn't believe her.

If this continues, does that mean that she will eventually be abandoned or die in a foreign land?

Such emotions lingered in Nie Huating's heart for a long time.

Since Xie Chongxiao left, he never came back for several days.

The eldest princess was extremely dissatisfied with this, and Nie Huating was inevitably scolded when she went to pay her respects.

"There is such a thing in the world." The eldest princess frowned, "After the wife went back, she made her husband angry. You are really good at it!"

The eldest princess is like this, and the servants in Zhuangzi are also gossiping.

It is nothing more than saying that she is causing trouble, that she is noble and ungrateful, and that it can be as unpleasant as it sounds.

After Ah Tang heard this, he went out to scold those people and comforted her in a soft voice when he came back.

"Madam, you don't have to take these words to heart. Just listen to them and let them go. There is only one woman beside the Marquis, how can he not care about her?" Nie Huating looked at her old-fashioned look and laughed out loud.

Ah Tang was obviously one year younger than her, but he still pretended to be serious and comforted her.

As the name suggests, the person looks like a begonia flower.

Nie Huating's eyes suddenly dimmed when he looked at her.

She didn't keep such a good girl in her previous life.

After leaving the Hou Mansion, she was kept outside by Jiang Suyin without any recognition. Later, the prince of the family fell in love with Ah Tang and forcefully bought her to be his concubine. However, she didn't even have any money, so she could only watch helplessly. That family is domineering.

Later, when she went to beg Jiang Suyin, the other party just said coldly that she was just a girl and not worth offending.

She went to complain to the official, but she didn't expect that the official was bribed by the Duke of Guo, and she didn't even have a place to appeal.

In less than half a year, Ah Tang was tortured to death by the family. She sold the few hairpins she had on her body to bury Ah Tang, who was less than [-] years old at the time.

She was so useless, but Ah Tang would miss her until he died.

Nie Huating looked at the little girl in front of him with a sore nose.

Ah Tang continued: "There will still be a long time to come. Madam, please don't be discouraged."

Nie Huating held her hand and said, "Well, the days ahead will be long."

Nie Huating said to her, "Ah Tang, find the pen and ink that the Marquis wants to burn that day."

Ah Tang shrank in fear and looked at her nervously: "What are you doing, madam, looking for those things?"

"Always take care of it."

Ah Tang was stunned and found it.

Nie Huating burned those things himself.

It's funny to say that she asked Jiang Suyin for these pens and inks when she said she wanted to learn calligraphy.

She actually hid the worthless things like pearls and treasures.

Paper cannot survive in flames, but in the blink of an eye, it turns to ashes.

Nie Huating asked Ah Tang to pack her things away so that she would no longer have these unworthy things in her life.

Life is still long, and she will live it well.
-
Nie Huating simply slept well in the house for a few days.

One morning, a descendant of the eldest princess asked her to accompany her to a temple not far away to offer incense.

Xie Chongxiao is also there.

When Nie Huating saw him in the Buddhist hall, he was slightly startled.

I heard that it was not peaceful outside these days, so Xie Chongxiao helped local officials deal with it. He hadn't had a good rest for a few days, and his eyes were turning green.

When she came in, Tang Ning'er was talking to the eldest princess.

When she saw her coming, Tang Ning'er instantly shut up.

Nie Huating: "."

Could they be talking about her?
"Huating has met my mother-in-law." Nie Huating saluted respectfully.

Then he turned around and said, "Mr. Hou is well."

The man raised his eyes and looked at her without speaking.

The eldest princess glanced at her. Today in the Buddhist hall, she had no intention of arguing with her daughter-in-law.

"Get up and stand beside your husband to offer incense."

Nie Huating stood next to Xie Chongxiao, and both of them stood behind the eldest princess.

Xie Chongxiao was obviously not interested in this kind of thing. He had killed people on the battlefield since he was very young. Such things as praying to gods and worshiping Buddhas were not suitable for him.

The man was holding the incense in both hands when he heard the woman next to him whisper: "Master Hou, what do you want to ask for?"

The two had just had a cold fight a few days ago, and Nie Huating didn't mind and talked to Xie Chongxiao shamelessly.

Xie Zhongxiao looked down at her and did not answer.

Nie Huating looked into his eyes, and was not discouraged and mustered up the courage to say to him: "Should the mountains and rivers last forever, or the people be happy?" He paused and then said, "The descendants will be prosperous?"

After hearing her words, the man's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't have much reaction. He looked at her with black eyes.

"To shut up."

Oh.
