My Fantastic Chef Wife - Chapter 443

However, Xiao Baoshan faced the same problem.
In ancient times, there was no well-developed network camera. In the huge capital city, how easy is it to find a place where the rumor originated?
This matter just ran aground.
That day, Qin Yilun called Xiao Baoshan and said that he would go to have some tea with him.
Xiao Baoshan agreed without thinking.
When the two arrived at the teahouse, Qin Yilun asked for a pot of Longjing in the West Lake and some snacks.
While pouring the tea, Qin Yilun looked at Xiao Baoshan, and then said: “Master Xiao Hou’s face is uncertain now, and it seems that he has something on his mind.
Xiao Baoshan smiled faintly: “There is one thing, as for the specifics, I must know Master Qin a little too.”
“But because of Mrs. Zun’s business? Rumors are everywhere in the city, and all kinds of speculations are very unfavorable to Mrs. Zun.”
“I know.” Xiao Baoshan said: “However, the person who spread the rumors can’t be found now, otherwise, I must let him parade.”
After Xiao Baoshan finished speaking, he patted the table fiercely.
Qin Yilun smiled bitterly, and then sighed: “Oh, I think you and your wife have done so many things for the court. If it were not for the Li people, you would not go to Mobei, and Mrs. Zun would not be arrested. Now, there are people who use rumors to destroy Mrs. Zun, Xiaohouye, you must keep your mind steady, don’t blame Mrs. Zun, and don’t show a trace of disgust in front of her, otherwise you will hurt Mrs. Zun. heart.”
“I naturally understand.” Xiao Baoshan said.
Qin Yilun said again: “On my side, if I hear any rumors, I will definitely scold them. A few days ago, a servant of the Ministry of Household guessed that you want to take a concubine, and I was severely reprimanded at that time. “
Concubine?
When Xiao Baoshan heard this, his eyes suddenly became cold.
…
During this period of time, Ye Xiaoxian didn’t leave the house, but even at home, she also felt that the family members in the house would look at her with strange eyes, making her extremely uncomfortable.
Her mood is not gloomy.
She had already fled from Mobei to the capital. Now, where can she escape to?
It was night when Xiao Baoshan came back, and Ye Xiaoxian was lying on the bed and reading.
He showed more enthusiasm than before. After returning home, he asked Ye Xiaoxian, “What book does Ye Zi read?”
Ye Xiaoxian only said indifferently, “It’s all free books, you won’t like to read it.”
Xiao Baoshan walked over and took off his coat, and then sat on the side of the bed: “Are you tired? Would you like to rest earlier?”
Ye Xiaoxian looked listless: “I stay at home every day, what can I be tired of? It’s you, and you have to manage the affairs of the court every day, so you are tired.”
Xiao Baoshan smiled again.
Ye Xiaoxian could see that he had only come back from the outside, and asked again: “You haven’t washed your face and body yet? I’ll let the mother bring you a tray of water in.”
She put down her book and was about to get up, but Xiao Baoshan grabbed her hand and said, “I washed it with well water when I was in the yard.”
“Wash the cold well water?” she asked.
“It’s okay, it’s not so cold.” Xiao Baoshan said.
Ye Xiaoxian ignored him and only said: “Then you can rest earlier.”
She blew out the candle light and lay down again as usual.
During this time, they were not affectionate. Every time Xiao Baoshan came to hug her, she would push him away.
So, after a long time, they haven’t been intimate in their sleep.
After lying down, Ye Xiaoxian turned over and faced Xiao Baoshan with the back of her body.
In normal times, he would sleep peacefully, but tonight, he leaned closer and hugged her from behind.
“Leaf…” He called her softly.
Ye Xiaoxian “hmm” for a while, then subconsciously pushed him away.
But this time it couldn’t be pushed away.
He hugged her tightly, and his chin rested on his shoulder: “Ye Zi, have you heard some rumors recently.”
Ye Xiaoxian knew that he was referring to the fact that she was “lost”, and she faintly responded, “Yes, I have heard a lot. Can you find out who spread the rumor?”
“I can’t find it out yet.” Xiao Baoshan said.
Ye Xiaoxian said indifferently: “I don’t care if I can’t find it out. I don’t care very much. My current status is better than many people, so people outside can tell me whatever they like. No matter how much their spit, they won’t drown me. I live just like that.”
Xiao Baoshan said, “It’s great that you can think so.”
Ye Xiaoxian said again: “Do you think I am dirty, just like those outside?”
“I didn’t!” Xiao Baoshan said decisively.
Ye Xiaoxian then sneered, “Really not? Then why did you never touch me after returning from Mobei?”
The night fell into a long silence.
Ye Xiaoxian turned over and faced Xiao Baoshan.
The light was out, and she couldn’t see his eyes or his appearance, so she could easily say some words.
“After you rescued me in Beiqing, you still cared for me all the way along the way, and stayed with me day and night. However, after returning to the capital, we became more and more alienated, even if we were sharing the same bed. You won’t touch me either. You know what you’re thinking in your heart. It’s impossible to say that men don’t mind women’s innocence. After hearing the rumors outside, you start to mind my innocence. , Right? Baoshan, don’t deceive yourself. It’s uncomfortable for you to endure this way. It’s better for you to admit it openly, and then accept a few concubines. I don’t care.”
After Ye Xiaoxian finished speaking, Xiao Baoshan suddenly hugged her tightly in his arms and said: “I promised you that I will never accept concubines. I will only be with you for the rest of my life. How can I easily change my mind now?”
“Then you have to wrong yourself?” Ye Xiaoxian asked.
“I never feel that being with you is wronged, and I have never believed the rumors outside, even if… even if you are really caught by them… you are in my heart, and she is the purest good girl at the time.” Xiao Baoshan said very positively.
“Then explain, the reason for our alienation during this period?” Ye Xiaoxian forced to ask.
The night was silent again.
After waiting for a while, Ye Xiaoxian smiled bitterly in the dark night.
What can explain?
If it wasn’t for him to dislike her, then he was no longer able to do it.
But how could he be a good person?
She was about to turn her back to him, but after a while, Xiao Baoshan’s voice came from the darkness: “Ye Zi, I can’t hide one thing from you.”
“What’s the matter?” Ye Xiaoxian asked.
“After you disappeared, I went to find you. Later, I was ambushed by three bears in the forest. I was lucky enough to save my life, but…”
