Her face was pale and disheveled, and there were bruises at the corners of her mouth. Although the wind and frost had eroded her appearance, she could still tell that she was a beauty. She held Fan Zhongliang's hand and stretched it out. With tears on her face, she pointed at Niu Dagui. Then she opened her mouth, and everyone realized that she had no tongue...
Later, from the explanations given by the villagers, everyone learned that Chen Suqing was already mute when Niu Dagui arrived in Pozi Village. Niu Dagui told them that Chen Suqing was suffering from mental illness. He cut off his legs and tongue, and often wanted to commit suicide. She can hurt herself, so I have to lock the door and tie her up every time to avoid her hurting herself.
In fact, it was because he was afraid of Chen Suqing's escape. The villagers saw that Chen Suqing was going crazy every day but Niu Dagui never left her, so they believed Niu Dagui's words and automatically ignored Chen Suqing's look for help.
If it weren't for the arrival of Yao Shu and the others, maybe Chen Suqing would have gradually withered in this small village...
After successfully solving this old case and rescuing Chen Suqing, Yao Shu was in a particularly good mood. At night, she was busy in the small kitchen of the palace. Aunt Ou asked her what she was doing. She was mysterious and refused to say, I grabbed two bowls of sugar water and ran outside.
"Can I come in?" Yao Shu's voice sounded outside the study room of Prince Su's Mansion.
"Um."
"What happened to Chen Suqing after she was sent back?"
Yao Shu asked as she handed the bowl over, then pulled up a chair and sat down to eat herself. Fu Xiujin lowered her head and glanced at the tangerine peel and mung bean paste in her hand, and suddenly froze.
"The family reunited and wept bitterly. Chen Suqing felt that her innocence was gone and she didn't want to live anymore. Wang Baichuan knelt outside Chen's house for two hours and begged to marry her. Mr. Chen agreed. Now it should be the time for lovers to finally get married."
"Wang Baichuan is a long-term lover. Although it is not perfect, we are finally married."
After saying that, Yao Shu licked her lips, raised her head and said to Fu Xiujin with a smile, "Take some sugar water, please. Thank you for saving me today. You love sweets, right?"
Fu Xiujin looked at the woman in front of him smiling and asking him questions, her ears turned red, and she nodded by accident...
The two of them had a rare midnight snack together in harmony. When leaving, Yao Shu carried two empty bowls and ran into Grandma Ou who was looking around outside. As soon as she saw Yao Shu coming out, she greeted him with a smile.
"Miss Yao, just give this bowl to the old lady. You should go back to your room to wash up and rest. You have been busy all day."
Yao Shu knew that she still hadn't given up on trying to lead her to Fu Xiujin, but she didn't want to inquire too openly, so she waited outside. She didn't hand over the bowl, but started chatting with Grandma Ou as they walked to the kitchen.
"Aunt Ou, you can just call me Ah Shu or Xiao Shu. I met Pei Yingxia at the government office today, and I heard Zhao Shaobai say that she likes Fu Xiujin very much."
As soon as the name Pei Yingxia was mentioned, Grandma Ou's face suddenly darkened, and her previous enthusiasm was mostly reduced.
"Miss Pei has a good family background, but she has a bad temper and is not worthy of the prince."
"Why, mama, your attitude is similar to that of Zhao Shaobai, and his evaluation of Miss Pei is not very good."
Yao Shu said hypocritically, but she actually disliked Pei Yingxia's tea-smelling tea in her heart, but she was very curious about what Pei Yingxia had done to make people around Fu Xiujin think she was of bad character.
"It's okay if she doesn't want to see other people being nice. She likes our prince and spreads rumors everywhere that she will eventually get married to our prince with the blessing of Emperor Yifeng. Our prince is a boring gourd and doesn't care what others say. He comes from a good family. When the girl heard this, she didn't dare to argue with her even if she was interested in our prince, which made our prince not have a peach blossom for so many years."
When Grandma Ou gritted her teeth and said that there was no peach blossom, Fu Xiujin suddenly sneezed in the study...
"Normally she is jealous, and when she meets other official girls, she only takes advantage of her. Last year, there was a girl who was singing in a teahouse who was pretty and pretty. When she went to have tea and met her, that girl suffered a lot. It’s a big disaster.”
