At home, only Lian Ruzhi can ask. Even though her mother treated her very well, she still had to be wary of saying whatever was on her mind.
Lian Ruzhi didn't answer first. He just turned An Hongshao's hair with his hand and said after a moment, "I gave him a human head."
The head of a person under a death pact.
An Hongshao suddenly remembered that Lian Yun had asked a person with a death contract to paint Lian Yanyu's body.
This means that even if the person dies, Lian Yanyu's leverage is still with Lian Yun. In the future, he still has to serve Lian Yun carefully and don't try to escape Lian Yun's control.
Impossible in a lifetime.
An Hongshao let out a long sigh, Lian Yun's methods were really impressive.
Lian Ruqi hugged him tighter and said, "Don't think about other things."
It has nothing to do with them. Besides, this is Lian Yanyu's retribution.
If she could keep herself safe, she would not have fallen into Lian Yun's hands. At this moment, I can only rest assured to send her to Lian Yun. If she meets a weak mother-in-law, she will definitely not be able to suppress Lian Yanyu.
The sky was still clear during the day, but it suddenly started raining in the middle of the night, and it seemed that some cold air had penetrated through the cracks in the window.
The two of them hugged each other and talked, the sky began to turn white, and now they fell asleep.
It's raining outside and the weather is gray. Logically speaking, this kind of weather is the most suitable for sleeping. Even her mother didn't need to say hello to An Hongshao. She thought she could sleep longer, but she didn't expect Dongqing to knock on the door and say that Mrs. Zhou was here.
Early in the morning, it disturbed the young couple's sweet dreams.
"No!" Lian Ruqi scolded angrily.
It's only nine o'clock in the morning, has anyone come here so early?
An Hongshao pushed her as expected, "Say less."
Zhou is pregnant, so there must be something going on when she comes here early in the morning. She is not a person who has no sense of propriety. She had let Jing Han take the lead when she came here before, for fear of encountering any inconvenience.
An Hongshao rubbed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then stood up quickly.
Even Ruzhi was just being stubborn. When An Hongshao came with him, he immediately turned over. His sister-in-law must not come over. It was outrageous for him, a brother-in-law, to sleep with a quilt on him.
An Hongshao asked Dongqing to just pull up her hair, fix it with a long hairpin, and match it with a green dress. It was not rude.
Fortunately, last night, An Hongshao specially used indigo because she was coming back as scheduled. Although her face was cleansed, there was still a faint mark, as if she had drawn her eyebrows in the morning and only used a touch of lipstick. Then you can meet people.
The spring rain is as precious as oil, and the pattering is not big. Holly holds an oil-paper umbrella, but the rain falls on An Hongshao.
An Hongshao held the hem of her skirt with both hands and walked forward, but the front of her embroidered shoes was stained with moisture.
"Sister-in-law." An Hongshao greeted with a smile after entering the main hall.
Mrs. Zhou was originally sitting with her head bowed. After hearing An Hongshao's voice, she immediately raised her head.
Just this glance made An Hongshao's smile freeze on his face. When he was waiting for a reaction, he immediately restrained himself and sat in front of Zhou with a serious face, "Sister-in-law, what happened?"
Looking at Mrs. Zhou, her eyes were red, obviously she had cried.
You must know that after Zhou became pregnant, everyone in the family protected her and no one dared to offend her.
The person who can cry like this is most likely someone from outside. If something happens outside, it won't be minor or serious.
An Hongshao's first reaction was, something happened to Zhou's family?
Mrs. Zhou shook her head, "This person came over abruptly, did he disturb you and your second brother?"
Zhou is pregnant, so An Hongshao definitely can't tell the truth, "What did my sister-in-law say? My husband went to practice swordsmanship early in the morning, and I was bored in the house."
If Ms. Zhou was still rational, she would have heard that An Hongshao was comforting her. It rained in the middle of last night. Why did you brave the rain to practice swordsmanship this morning as planned?
Moreover, even if he just came back last night as scheduled, a tough guy still has to worry about his health, right?
However, Zhou was only immersed in his own thoughts at the moment. An Hongshao answered warmly, tears falling down, "I'm just holding it back so badly, I don't know who to talk to, so my brothers and sisters are here."
People who are pregnant may tend to think too much.
An Hongshao was not pregnant, so she heard this from Lian's mother. At this moment, she could only hand the handkerchief to Ms. Zhou, "Sister-in-law, if you need anything, just tell me. There is no need to tell anyone."
Only then did Zhou say that because she was pregnant these days, she felt very uncomfortable and often went to bed early. Last night Lian Ruxin was out drinking, but Zhou didn't wait for him because he was afraid of the smell of wine.
I thought that this morning would be the same as every other morning, but I didn't expect that maybe because I went to bed too early last night, I woke up too early this morning. I heard the maids whispering under the eaves, saying that they bumped into a disheveled maid early in the morning. He ran out of Lian Ruxin's study.
No one knows what happened between the two of them, except for this scene, it seems that they don’t need to know too clearly.
An Hongshao's head buzzed, had Lian Ruxin set his sights on the maid?
Thinking about what happened before, Lian Ruxin was very considerate towards Mr. Zhou and definitely had feelings for his wife. Even if you really want to take a concubine, you can just wait until Zhou gets better.
Could it be because I drank wine and lost control for a while?
An Hongshao rubbed his eyebrows, not knowing how to comfort Zhou.
There was a reason why Mrs. Zhou could only look for An Hongshao. She also knew that many women would let their concubines serve their husbands when they were pregnant in order to maintain their favor. But she always thought that she and Lian Ruxin were different. However, she felt aggrieved and couldn't talk to her mother-in-law. Even if her mother was the best person, she couldn't speak.
Lian Ru had been keeping her alone for nearly four years, so it was natural for her to take a concubine at this time. If she complained to Lian's mother, wouldn't that be jealousy?
Similarly, she couldn't go back to her parents' home to talk about it, because this matter was taken for granted in everyone's eyes, and when she went back, people would just try to persuade her to be sensible.
The only thing that had to be done was to determine whether Lian Ruxin was attracted to this maid, or whether she was watching Lian Ruxin get drunk and deliberately crawled into bed.
But no matter what the reason was, Ms. Zhou felt very uncomfortable in her heart, and she subconsciously wanted to look for An Hongshao. I think only a bride like this can understand that she doesn't want her husband to take a concubine in such a mysterious way.
"Sister-in-law, you are still pregnant now, so you have to take care of yourself for the sake of your child." An Hongshao really couldn't think of anything to say to comfort Mrs. Zhou.
Even if you know, adults are just as important when encountering this kind of thing, and you can't just worry about the children.
Mrs. Zhou kept crying, and An Hongshao could only stay with her. She kept crying for almost an hour, and then she started sobbing and feeling calmer.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you go back and sleep for a while?" An Hongshao thought, Zhou must be tired after crying for so long. At this moment, it still depends on whether Zhou's body can hold on.
Mrs. Zhou wiped away her tears and shook her head gently, "No, this matter must be concluded. I will report it to mother."
Even if she takes a concubine, she can't get past the Zhou family. She can't escape.
