Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 27 Yang Zhi's Thoughts

It turned out that those grotesque scenes just now were just dreams, and she had already lived again.

"You lowly servant girl, why stand in front and prevent us from seeing Ah Ruo?"

"That's right, it's already three poles in the sun, why can't Ah Ruo still not collapse?"

"You maidservant, why don't you let your girl down quickly?"

It was Zheng Wan's voice and those of her cousins.Waiting at the door so early, can't wait to know about the banquet at the Xie Mansion last night?
Zheng Ruo was a little annoyed, she really shouldn't have slept so late and let these people block the door.

She lay on the bed and listened for so long, but she never heard Yang Zhi's voice, only Liu Xu and Heping's cowardly explanation.Could it be that after last night, Yang Zhi has learned to behave?
"Catkins!"

Liu Xu, who was waiting outside to give a girl, heard Zheng Ruo's call, and immediately opened the door to come in.Seeing that Zheng Ruo was fully dressed and sitting in front of the bronze mirror, she took a few quick steps.

"Girl, the fifth aunt and the sixth aunt have brought a group of people to wait in the yard."

"Well. Let them wait."

"Girl," Liu Xu hesitated and said, "Fifth Auntie has a whip in her hand. Girl, why don't you go and find Mr. Lang?"

"Brother has gone out?" Zheng Ruo asked while combing her long hair.

Most of the wound on Liu Xu's hand has healed, she took the comb, and while sighing in her heart for the girl's soft long hair, she said, "Lang Jun will go out at dawn."

"Did you say where to go?"

"The slave asked. He said to do things according to what the girl said."

"Oh? So, he's looking for that person from last night?"

Liu Xu nodded, and said, "Girl, you gave him the white jade hairpin last night, why do you want Mr. Lang to look for him?"

Zheng Ruo smiled at her in the bronze mirror, but did not speak.The elder brother was able to listen to her own words and go to that person, which made her very happy.

"Why did it take so long to get up?" Zheng Wan's voice sounded outside again.

"Girl..." Liu Xu was a little worried. The last time the girl shut Zheng Wan's door and got a nosebleed, she felt a little uneasy.She was afraid that the girl would embarrass Zheng Wan again this time, but she was not afraid of embarrassment, if she made Zheng Wan bleed again, she was afraid that the Patriarch would not spare the girl this time as easily as last time.

Zheng Ruo turned around, saw the worry in her eyes, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Liu Xu opened the door, and the sisters-in-law sitting outside saw Zheng Ruo coming out, and all of them looked at her.Zheng Wan just yelled the loudest, when she really saw Zheng Ruo coming out, she snorted, turned her head to the other side, played with the whip in her hand, and ignored her.

A sister-in-law with a round face is the youngest, named Zheng Qi, and like Zheng Wan, she is also the daughter of the first line, the youngest daughter of Zheng Wan's uncle, and she is usually best friends with the twins.She smiled and came up to hold Zheng Ruo's hand, blinked her eyes, and asked curiously: "Ah Ruo, was the banquet at Xie Mansion last night grand?"

"En." Zheng Ruo avoided her hand without any trace, and replied lightly.

"Ah Ruo, is it fun?"

"Ah."

"Ah Ruo, there are many people here in Xie's mansion, right? Have you...did you see Wang Jiulang?" When Zheng Qi asked this question, he glanced at Zheng Wan who was beside him.The other sisters-in-law held their breath because of her words, and looked straight at Zheng Ruo with burning eyes.

Zheng Ruo turned her head and thought for a moment, a dreamy smile appeared on her face, then she lowered her head as if she was very shy, and said, "See you. Jiulang praised my piano playing well."

As soon as her words came out, all the sister-in-laws were in an uproar.Zheng Wan stood up with a "swipe", pointed at her nose with a whip, and said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. She is a humble concubine, how can she see Jiulang who is on the side of the fairy? She must be talking nonsense! "

"Ah Ruo, we kindly came to see you, why did you lie to us?" Another sister-in-law also stood up blushing and said angrily.

"You can't even eat today's breakfast. How could Jiulang talk to a poor and lowly person like you? You are clearly lying. Maybe Xie Sanlang found out not long after you went to Xie's mansion last night. Wrong person!" Zheng Wan said.

"Yes, those servants must have sent the wrong invitation."

Zheng Ruo looked at Zheng Ruo as if she was looking at an idiot. She laughed suddenly and said, "Fifth Sister, the steward of the Xie Mansion made it very clear yesterday. Xie Sanlang didn't invite you, a shrew and a savage. As for Wang Jiulang He didn't talk to me, everyone who attended the banquet last night saw it. Fifth sister, Wang Jiulang also said that he would invite me to discuss music theory with him next time."

"You, liar! Liar!" Zheng Wan shouted angrily.

Zheng Ruo said aggrievedly: "Fifth sister, Ah Ruo is not lying, Wang Jiulang really said so."

From Zheng Wan's point of view, Zheng Ruo's appearance was that she was taking advantage of it and acting obediently. She waved the whip to beat her, but suddenly remembered what Zheng Ru said, laughed twice, and she put down the whip.She said to Zheng Ruo, "Don't be complacent, there will be times when you cry." After speaking, she turned around and left Zheng Ruo's yard.As soon as she left, the other sister-in-laws followed suit, and the courtyard was suddenly empty.

"Girl, you've offended Fifth Aunt again." Liu Xu said worriedly, "Girl, I'm worried that she will go to the Patriarch to file a complaint, and then it will be like what she said, and the girl will suffer."

"What are you afraid of, Liu Xu, think about it. Last time I beat her, her nose was bleeding, and the Patriarch never punished me. What's more, I didn't touch her at all this time. How could the Patriarch not distinguish between black and white?"

Liu Xu thought so too, but what Zheng Wan said before leaving still made her feel uneasy.After the sisters-in-law had left, Zheng Ruo touched her hungry stomach and asked Liu Xu with a bitter face, "Is there any food at home?"

Liu Xu lowered her head and shook her head, "Girl, there was no food at home yesterday."

Zheng Ruo frowned deeply, "There is no food at home, and I feel panic. How can I live without food in this world?"

Liu Xu raised her head to look at her, thought for a while, then lowered her head, looking quite hesitant.In the end, he opened his mouth and asked, "Miss, there is no food in the house. Do you want to reduce the number of servants?"
