I’m the Legitimate Wife - C239 Entering the county city at night and panicking (Part Two)

The effects of adrenaline had not subsided, his heart was pumping blood into his four limbs and organs, Xu Mingwei’s ears were buzzing. After a while, he heard the sound of servants walking around, and after a while, someone came and asked, “Grandma, I heard the sound of porcelain being broken, is there anyone I can use?”

Xu Mingwei was about to speak out subconsciously, but she only saw Wan Rong sobbing as she shook her head and begged her. She hesitated for a moment, then changed her mind and said loudly, “It’s just that I accidentally knocked him down.

After that old woman heard her words, she really did not make a sound and left.

Xu Mingwei focused, she was afraid that she might not be able to hit the target accurately, and that people might wake up at some point. Thus, she pulled out a sheet and tied the thief tightly, then went to check on the green peach lying on the ground. Seeing that there was some blood on her forehead and her breathing was steady, she thought she must have fainted for a while, so she felt better.

Without waiting for her to untie the cloth, Xu Mingwei asked first, “First of all, why did you stop me from summoning people? Do you have anything to say?”

Wan Rong’s mouth was still numb, but after resting for a while, she suppressed her voice and said, “Grandmother can’t think about it, this thief is strange, our house has so many rooms, there are only five rooms, he does not ask anyone, but solitarily came to our room?”

Speaking to this point, Wan Rong looked at the peaches with worry. She knew that since Xu Mingwei had checked it before, his expression did not change, and it would be alright. Thinking of this in her heart, she hurriedly said, “Grandmother shouldn’t blame Peaches for being reckless. This person has come with confidence, even if Peaches didn’t recklessly open the door, there would still be a way to trick the servant into opening the door. Simply saying that Master has an explanation ahead of us, we will also end up in the same place. ”

Only now did Xu Mingwei know how this thief managed to get in, but he did not. If it was Wan Rong, then there would be a male servant knocking on the door late at night, and only after asking about the origins of the knock, would he be willing to open the door. Or else, there would be a female servant who was familiar with him, and would not rashly unlatch the door. But he knew that she was kind-hearted, so he said lightly, “Let’s just wait until Peaches wakes up, before we think about it. In the past, when she was so simple and cute, without being taught in detail, it was also me who planted the karma.”

Wan Rong originally didn’t mean it like that, but from Xu Mingwei’s tone, it wasn’t too difficult for her. After slightly calming down, she picked up the words from before and said in detail, “First of all, it’s only level one. This traitor might be from our family or an inn; Grandmother said, “Why?” There were only three women in the room. One of them had fainted and was tied up while the only one who could be trusted was his grandmother, who was standing with her tail behind her. How could anyone believe what she saw? “Furthermore, when the thief entered the house, he mistook this servant for his grandmother. His words are rather dishonest, up and down …”

When Wan Rong said this, shshewas so embarrassed that she did not say anything, but seeing that Xu Mingwei was still waiting for her to speak, he could only endure it and spoke angrily, “What if everyone enters the house, and the thief wakes up again, and spits out some disgraceful words, to teach people to listen, even if there is no trace of the matter, it would still be obvious. How will grandmother continue being a human in the future, I’m afraid that the people at home are still upright, and will chew their tongues until they break apart! Nana looked at the girl in front of her. She was the closest of aunts, and she seemed to have seen it with her own eyes! Fortunately, the young lady on the surface was upright and my uncle carried her lightly. Moreover, he was the one who personally saved her. Otherwise, how could the young lady’s reputation be sullied and have such an enviable marriage? ”

Xu Mingwei was still a descendant deep down, and her reputation was closely related to a woman’s. Although she had taken this into consideration, she had not really harbored any deep feelings for her, so she had never thought about going to this level. Now that she had thought about it, she was even more afraid of the day!

“As you say, there is a living man in the house right now. How should we deal with him?” Xu Mingwei asked coldly.

“This person cannot be left alive.” A trace of fierceness flashed across Wan Rong’s eyes, but her voice was surprisingly calm.

Xu Mingwei was startled, “How can I do this? Compared to being at home, staying outside, and not being familiar with the place, there was not even a place to display it. How could he hide the blood, and where would the corpse be sent? “Besides, you already said it. I’m afraid there might be someone involved after the incident. How come there’s no one alive to ask about it?”

Wan Rong only had the thought of killing him to silence him, but she wasn’t as meticulous as Xu Mingwei. She took three steps forward, and after being stunned for a moment, she didn’t know what to say, and said with a wry smile, “Then what should we do? “No matter how long Young Master delayed outside, there would still be a time when he’d turn back. She saw the scene in the room and didn’t know where to think …”

When Xu Mingwei heard her mention Fu Heng, she had an idea in her heart, and asked her, “Pick up your face, don’t let others see that you are flustered, but look ahead and see who Young Master is drinking with, other than Duan Yunping, there are others present.”

Wan Rong was surprised, but seeing that Xu Mingwei was so confident, she swallowed her exhortation. In her heart, she recalled the words of the thief, if there was a third person, the mastermind would be clear about it. Thus, she nodded and said, “I will go right away. Does Grandmother have anything to say?”

Xu Mingwei muttered to herself for a moment, then said: “Don’t mention going to the side, she only said that I was feverish, and wanted him to come and take a look, and that she wanted to call the doctor.”

Wan Rong had an idea in her heart. She wiped off the corners of her hair and clothes, then covered her head to the front of the door.

Seeing that Wan Rong had already left, Xu Mingwei shot a glance at the thief, who was wearing a dark goatee clothing, with some deep and shallow oil stains on his collar, and his sleeves that had been chafed long ago, revealing a pair of rough hands with quite a few knife scars, obviously not a good family, and had already made some guesses about’s background.

Bi Tao woke up at this moment, and moaned twice. He opened his eyes in a daze, and finally remembered what had happened, and anxiously got up to look, only to see Xu Mingwei standing in front of him, and then to see him looking at the thief who was tied up by the bed, he immediately knelt down in front of Xu Mingwei and sobbed, “Grandma, please beat me to death! Today, I nearly fell into a trap for Grandma, but I no longer have the face to serve in front of Grandma …”

Xu Mingwei allowed her to slap her cheeks, and did not stop her, sighing: “If I had not sobered up today, I’m afraid that we would not have been able to make it down. You really should scold, you should hit, damn it! What did your two sisters do in the past, and how did they teach you? She was not afraid of being too cautious. She took a step forward and started to think. She did not want to do anything useless or harmful to herself, to others, or to her master. How much did you learn? ”

The more she cried, the more ashamed she became, “This servant knows his mistake, but this servant really knows his mistake.”

It was only then that Xu Mingwei stepped forward to help her up, and said, “You and I grew up together. In the past, when you were a bit rough, I would have stopped Wan Rong and the others from teaching you a little. I will remember this matter from today. I will punish you with one year’s worth of monthly fees and even cut your rice in half. At the very least, you have a good memory. ”

Hearing that she was going to be punished for a month with money and food, she did not feel any heartache. Hearing that Xu Mingwei was willing to let her live, she was so happy that she kneeled down and kowtowed, “Thank you for your kindness, Grandma.

The two of them were talking when the door lightly knocked, and then Wan Rong led Fu Heng in. Xu Mingwei subconsciously straightened her back, her gaze fixed on Fu Heng, waiting for him to speak.

The moment Fu Heng entered the room, he saw them, but seeing that Xu Mingwei was standing there perfectly fine and not looking like she was sick, and that Peaches had a swollen face, crying until they had mucus and snot all over their bodies, Fu Heng inwardly wondered what kind of lawsuit the master and servants were going through, and then his gaze landed on another person in the room.

It didn’t look good. There was actually an unfamiliar man in his wife’s room. Fu Heng was shocked, and immediately went forward to check what was going on. Xu Mingwei glanced at Wan Rong, and the latter immediately understood as she quietly told him everything that had happened tonight. Fu Heng’s face became gloomy, and said to Wan Rong: “You went to the back and called Dong Zi over, and together with Mister Duan, you invited him over, don’t forget to keep everyone in the dark.”

Xu Mingwei’s heart was finally at ease, the fists under her sleeves had finally relaxed.

“Who do you think did this?”

Fu Heng did not care about her words, and bellowed at the peaches: “This time your grandmother forgives you, so I will remember. “Next time, no matter how much your grandmother pleads, I will be the first to not forgive you. Carefully examine your own piece of skin!”

She did not dare to make a sound, and then she heard Fu Heng say, “Move him away, and move him inside.”

How could Peaches dare to refuse? She hurriedly carried that person away.

Seeing that the peaches had left, Fu Heng walked forward to take a closer look at Xu Mingwei’s face, and said in a low voice, “If I knew that this would happen, I might as well have gone to the county’s yamen, for free I taught you to be shocked like this.”

When Xu Mingwei heard him not mentioning anything about chastity, she did not know whether he truly believed what Wan Rong had said or if she was hiding it in his heart, unwilling to reveal it. But if there was such a thing, then the heart would always enjoy it, so she replied in a light voice, “It’s hard to buy with money, so you should have known earlier.” Who would have thought that it would be such a coincidence? No one would go inside the house, only knowing that there’s no one inside and yet, they have to barge in? ”

Fu Heng regretted his decision even more. If not for the depression in his heart, who brought Yun Ping along to buy wine, the room would not have been emptied. Then, he gently pulled Xu Mingwei closer to her and said gently, “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have gotten angry with you again, I left you alone in the house, so even if I were to be angry in the future, I won’t teach you that lesson.”

Xu Mingwei’s straight back finally relaxed, and obediently leaned against his chest, allowing him to hold her tightly. However, she remained silent.
