The wind was mixed with raindrops, and the rain became heavier and heavier. Xiao Yuan's robe was soaked, so he simply threw away his umbrella and staggered forward.

If it were daytime, you would definitely see blood stains diluted by the rain wherever he passed.

He returned to Tiansheng Casino and fainted as soon as he reached the second floor.

When he woke up again, he was already lying in the private room. Ji Xuan was changing his dressing, while Zhu Shang was reading a few letters with interest.

He picked up these letters from Mr. Wang's study before going to Mrs. Wang's yard. He wrapped the letters in oil paper before putting them in his arms, hoping that they would not get wet by the rain.

When Zhu Shang saw that he was awake, he threw down the letter and came over. His voice was a little unhappy, but also had a sense of schadenfreude: "I just ran out when I was injured. I am not afraid of dying outside. If it weren't for Yuki Goro, do you think you can still wake up?" ?”

Due to the violent exercise and heavy rain, Xiao Yuan's wounds yesterday were split open. Today's injuries are more serious than yesterday. His white coat was soaked with blood and his whole body was as hot as a stove.

Xiao Yuan did not answer, but asked Zhu Shang: "Where is my handkerchief?"

Ji Xuan had almost finished treating Xiao Yuan's wound at this moment. He took the handkerchief on the side and handed it to Xiao Yuan: "But this one?" When he was a child, he met Xiao Yuan several times in the capital. Later, Xiao Yuan came to Suzhou. We often meet at Tiansheng Gambling House, and we are quite familiar with him.

Although it is a handkerchief similar to the one embroidered by a six-year-old child when she first learns to be a female worker, it is obviously very important for Xiao Yuan to put it inside.

Xiao Yuan grabbed it with one hand and said angrily: "Why is it dyed red?"

Zhu Shang folded his hands and said sarcastically: "You almost bled to death, so what's the harm in getting stained with some blood? Besides, there's no need to keep such an inconspicuous veil."

Xiao Yuan knew that Zhu Shang always had a sharp tongue. He specifically picked up things that others didn't like and didn't pay attention to them. Instead, he carefully folded the handkerchief and placed it next to his pillow.

Ji Xuan glanced at the handkerchief, then turned to the desk and prescribed Xiao Yuan some fever-reducing medicine, and told him not to do strenuous exercise in the past ten days. Don't let water get into the wound, and take a good rest before leaving without worries.

This morning he was called by Zhu Shang to Tiansheng Gambling House to treat Xiao Yuan. After examination, he found that Xiao Yuan was seriously injured. Although the previous bandaging was quite careful and stopped the bleeding, he still suffered such a serious injury. Simply stopping the bleeding is simply not enough.

He has treated many trauma patients, but no one is as calm as Xiao Yuan.

Looking at his wound was like looking at a restaurant that can be seen everywhere on weekdays, and when the medicine was applied, there was no expression of pain on his face, nor did he raise his eyebrows.

With such a deep and long wound, strenuous exercise cannot be done at all, let alone water. But I heard from Zhu Shang that Xiao Yuan climbed over the wall many times tonight. It rained heavily again, and now I have a fever, but it’s not easy to wake up so quickly.

The next day, Xu Nuo woke up before half an hour.

At this time, only the maidservants in Mingjin Pavilion got up and prepared to clean the yard, while Chuntang would be planted two quarters later in July.

She lay looking at Chengchen, recalling what Xiao Yuan said on the way back to Xu Mansion yesterday.

It turns out that Wang Ying and the Xu family are indeed involved, and Wang Qiniang can be regarded as the wife of the Xu family.

Wang Ying got engaged when she was ten years old. When she was sixteen years old and ready to get married, the man suddenly fell ill and died.

Later, some people said that she was a coward. She had always been arrogant and reserved. After hearing what others said, I decided not to marry again.

Although there have always been matchmakers for her, she has always turned them away.

Until she was twenty-two years old, the Qingming tea fight was held in the Wang family that year. Although she was a woman, she participated in the tea fight because there was no son of the right age in her family.

it's here. She met Xu Guyu, the eldest son of the Xu family.

Although Xu Guyu was a little indecisive. But he has rules for how he does things, so you won’t feel that he is incompetent after a short period of contact with him. What's more, he looks dignified. He was tall and polite in speech and behavior. Wang Ying was a little moved when he saw him.

She has lived in the boudoir for a long time and has not seen such an outstanding son for many years.

After the tea fight was over, she got to know Xu Guyu personally, and found out that Xu Guyu got married two years ago and married the legitimate daughter of the Ding family. Ding was now seven months pregnant and was about to give birth.

Although Xu Guyu was married and married to a wife with a solid background, she knew she shouldn't have thoughts about him, but she missed Xu Guyu more and more in the days that followed.

I have dreamed of his thick eyebrows and gentle and humble smile many times in my dreams.

It was just that the reserve and arrogance she had developed over the years made it impossible for her to lose face and contact Xu Guyu.

It was an extremely coincidental event that Mrs. Wang proposed to hold a flower appreciation party in Wang's pear garden in Changzhou County. Mrs. Wang mentioned it casually, but Wang Ying strongly agreed. The matter became a matter of course, and the Wang family was busy preparing for it. .

The post to the Xu family was written by her. She wrote several invitations and chose the most satisfactory one and sent it out.

At that time, Xu Gucheng of the Xu family was in Bianjing, Xu Gulei was young, and Ding was pregnant. In the end, only Xu Guyu of the Xu family attended the banquet with his two young sisters.

Wang Ying was very happy to see Xu Guyu coming. She wore a pink jacket and a red skirt. She looked much younger and very bright.

Xu Guyu had had enough of being scolded by Mr. Ding who was in a bad mood due to her pregnancy at home. Now that he saw Wang Ying's beauty and her frequent ogling, he couldn't help but be moved.

Wang Ying invited Xu Guyu to sit in the house, and they drank together.

Wang Ying said that she didn't bother to get married, saying that today's young heroes are nothing at all, and they can't catch her eye. The implication is that she invited Xu Guyu to drink because she thought highly of him. He was better than those young heroes and caught her eye.

Xu Guyu complained that because of Xu Gucheng's academic success, his status in the hearts of his parents was much lighter, and that Ding had a bad temper and got angry with him many times, calling him a coward...

That day, the two of them got drunk and had an affair in the Liyuan hut.

Although Xu Guyu had complaints against Ding, he never thought of doing such a thing, so he ran away in a hurry after sobering up.

Wang Ying was not drunk at all. She deliberately got Xu Guyu drunk and led him to do this. At this time, she looked at Xu Guyu's back and laughed non-stop.

Half a month later, she wrote a letter inviting Xu Guyu to come out, but Xu Guyu didn't reply, so she said she would tell Ding about the Liyuan. Xu Guyu was worried that Ding would be angry, so he forced himself to come out.

Wang Ying played a trick. Xu Guyu prostrated himself under her skirt again.

After several attempts, Xu Guyu got a taste of it and no longer rejected Wang Ying as he did at the beginning. But Wang Ying had other thoughts on this matter. She wanted to be Xu Guyu's real wife, not a tryst lover.

Wang Ying placed several wives in the Xu family at that time. She planned to do something when Ding was about to give birth, but she missed the opportunity because Ding was born prematurely.

Later, Wang Ying went to the Xu family to congratulate Xu Guyu on the birth of a daughter on behalf of the Wang family. Xu Guyu saw Wang Ying from a distance and hurriedly fled to the study to hide.

Ever since Ding gave birth, he had been by Ding's side every step of the way. He took good care of her and felt extremely regretful about what he had done in the past two months. Meeting Wang Ying was like meeting a jackal, tiger, and leopard.

Wang Ying later made an appointment with Xu Guyu, but Xu Guyu ignored her and she threatened her many times. Xu Guyu remained unmoved.

She sent two letters to the Xu family almost every day that month. She wished she could live in the Xu family and tell Mrs. Ding that she was the mistress of the Xu family.

Until she found out she was pregnant, her whole body suddenly became quiet.

She wanted to take revenge on Xu Gucheng and secretly gave birth to the child to embarrass Xu Gucheng!

However, after giving birth to the child, she suddenly looked down on the man she once thought about day and night. I think he has no courage and courage.

Men who lack courage have never been able to catch her eye, such as her father. For example, her brother.

The desire for revenge gradually weakened.

Xu Nuo was surprised how Xiao Yuan knew these secrets. After all, he was not from Suzhou, and the Wang family would not talk about it casually.

I wonder if Ding knows about Wang Ying’s existence?

Does Xu Guyu know that Wang Ying gave birth to a daughter for him? It was Wang Qiniang.

The Wang family members are very ordinary in appearance, but the Xu family members follow Mr. Xu and have outstanding appearances. I think Wang Qiniang's better appearance than other Wang family members has a lot to do with Xu Guyu's genetics.

Xunuo took a nap and heard Qiyue Chuntang talking in the courtyard. Then he asked them to come into the house.

She now has some idea about the tea sent to Bianjing by the Xu family, but she is just a young lady in a deep boudoir. You can't just tell Xu Guyu where to start. So I planned to start with Xu Guyu's servant, and let Qiyue Chuntang pretend to have a conversation, saying that Xu Erniang and Wang Ying had a close relationship recently, so that Xu Guyu's closest servant could hear it.

Xu Guyu definitely couldn't calm down when he heard Wang Ying's name. If he thought about it carefully, it was easy to find out the reason, and then found that the Xu family's incident was closely related to the Wang family.

Xunuo gave Chuntang and Qiyue some instructions, but did not tell them why they did this.

After washing, she estimated the time for Xu Guyu to pay his respects and set off, first going to Yingcheng Courtyard to meet Mrs. Lu. Lu was busy with the Dragon Boat Festival and got up early. At this time, she had already gone to Langyuan Hall, so she promised to go to Langyuan Hall alone in the morning and dusk.

She went in to say hello and saw Xu Gucheng's boy outside.

Turning around and winking, Chuntang Qiyue understood, and walked towards the boy pretending to be careless, saying what Xu Nuo had already arranged.

In the evening, Xu Nuo learned that Xu Guyu had punished Xu Erniang to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days in the afternoon. The Zhang family reduced Xu Erniang's dowry by one-third, while the Ding family was so angry that she didn't eat dinner.

Obviously Xu Guyu has found out these things, but Ding didn't have an attack. It was obvious that he didn't know what happened between Xu Guyu and Wang Ying. Otherwise, he wouldn't have skipped dinner, but would have made peace with Xu Guyu.

Xu Nuo felt relieved. Now that Xu Guyu had found the source of the matter and could investigate it smoothly, the matter had nothing to do with her.

After turning on the lamp, she practiced calligraphy for a while. Half an hour later, her hands were sore. While drinking water, she looked at the crabapples that Chuntang had been reluctant to plant in the yard, and suddenly thought of the crabapple flower painted by Xiao Yuan.

I flipped out the painting and saw a series of words inscribed in very light ink on the back of the white crabapple flower: "Avenge Sic Bo for not winning".

It happened nearly three months ago, and he still remembers it?

How petty!

Did he see that the begonias she painted were not charming enough, so he painted them deliberately to make fun of her?

Suddenly, Xu Nuo felt that his hands were no longer sore, and he drew several pictures of Begonia in succession. (To be continued)
