Chapter Thirty-Third
A group of people were shocked by Li Jianan's sudden appearance, and just stared blankly.
Chunge was the first to understand. As soon as he called the Duke, Li Jianan rudely wiped the tears on Chunge's face with his hands and said coldly: "It's just a maid, why are you crying!"
His eyes glanced at Amber kneeling on the ground.
Amber knelt down and saw it, and her heart trembled at first.
Today, when things like this have reached this stage, it seems that Madam has made up her mind. The only person who can protect herself is the Duke of the State.
Traditionally, a girl's dowry maid was prepared for her uncle.
What's more, the Duke of Guo was clearly listening inside, and he must have also heard about Madam asking him to drink safflower soup. Heirs are a big deal! By doing this, Madam violated the taboo of the Duke of Guo. Even if it was just for the sake of
I'm betting that the Duke of Guo won't let himself be sent away.
Didn't the Duke just say that he is just a maid, how can he do it if his wife can't tolerate her!
Thinking about this, Amber met Li Jianan's eyes, with tears in her eyes, and pitifully called out to the Duke of the country!
Li Jianan looked furious.
I really don’t know how to measure things! I don’t know how the Chen family picked people.
Turning around, I thought of Chun Ge's identity as a concubine and the things he had witnessed with his own eyes.
Li Jian'an sneered in his heart, it seemed that he was really chosen to stumbling upon Chun Ge.
Throughout her life on the battlefield, the most important thing is loyalty. As a maid with a death contract, what she will do in the future will naturally be decided by her master. Even if she is sold to work as a coolie, there is no reason to reject her.
What this maid just said was clearly heart-breaking, and she was using past feelings to force Chun Ge to arrange for her to be a concubine.
A daughter's family has such dirty thoughts and dares to blackmail the master. If it is not suppressed, what will happen in the future?
As for the red flower soup...
Li Jian'an sighed when he looked at Chun Ge, who was crying in front of him.
It would be nice if he was really ruthless. Looking at him like this, he was clearly speaking deliberately to scare him.
Li Jian'an originally wanted to say a few words to Chun Ge to stop her from being so soft, but then he thought that there were too many disputes today and he couldn't let her lose face in front of the nanny again.
Moreover, if this maid dared to be so stubborn in front of her master, she might not have had the help of the wives of the Chen family who were behind her. She said with a cold face: "A maid, you can sell her, you can beat her, you can scold her, but there is no one around."
Tell me, why are you crying like this for her!"
Seeing that Li Jian'an didn't mention anything else, Chun Ge felt upset, but felt even more inexplicably aggrieved, and cried even louder.
Li Jian'an rubbed his forehead with a headache, but clumsily picked up the handkerchief and wiped it with Chunge.
Amber's face was filled with disbelief. She looked at Li Jian'an blankly and murmured: "My lord..."
How dare you act like this!
Li Jian'an felt that it was unbearable to bear the grievance on Amber's face, so he walked over in a few steps. Before anyone could recover, he put his foot on Amber's heart and made her roll away several feet away.
Amber screamed, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fainted.
However, Li Jian'an pressed half of Chun Ge's body into his arms with his backhand, preventing her from looking.
Seeing the child's mother standing nearby as if stunned, Li Jian'an lost the tolerance he had in the past and said coldly: "Why are you standing there in a daze? Why don't you ask someone to carry this slave out!"
The child's mother reacted and saw Chun Ge being firmly protected in Li Jianan's arms. With a smile in her eyes, she went out to call for help.
The ladies and maids who were waiting far outside came in after listening to Mother Tong's words. When they saw Amber's appearance and Li Jian'an's still sullen face, Chunge twitched, faintly hearing the cry, and couldn't help but gasp.
Be gentle, pack up quickly, and go out.
Li Jian'an let go of Chun Ge and held her face in his hands. Seeing that it was covered with tears, but still looking like a pear blossom after the rain, he sighed secretly and pulled her into the back room.
Chun Ge was limp and powerless, sitting on the bed, leaning on the pillow, crying.
When this kind of thing happened, and it involved the maid brought by Chun Ge, Li Jianan didn't want to make it known to everyone, so that others would say that the wife of the wife had no means, and even the servants who were dowry dared to step on her head.
.
Fortunately, there was a wing at the back, which contained the hot spring water prepared earlier. Li Jianan rolled up his sleeves, found a gilded copper carp basin, brought the water in, washed the silk handkerchief, and held Chun Ge in his arms.
, wipe her tears little by little.
Chunge was surprised, but also moved, and let Li Jianan do whatever he wanted.
After going back and forth several times, I finally cleaned up all the tears on my face.
He had never done any of these things before, and when he did it for the first time, and saw that he had transformed a tearful lady into a cute baby with slightly hanging hair and a simple face, Li Jianan couldn't help but feel a bit proud and satisfied. He had complained before
Chun Ge's thoughts of being too weak also dissipated.
Seeing that Chunge had finally stopped crying, Li Jianan slipped on her shoes and went to bed, held her in his arms, kissed her forehead gently, with a soft smile in his eyes, and joked: "I finally stopped crying."
Every time they got close to each other in the past, it was true that Li Jianan's pampering was included, but Chunge also deliberately suppressed the feeling of rejection in her heart, constantly telling herself that this person was someone she should rely on and must rely on. This is
It's a kind of coordination based on reason, not a sincere cuddle.
This time, Chunge felt that Li Jianan was truly someone she could rely on from the bottom of her heart, so she unconsciously put her arms around Li Jianan's neck, but refused to speak. She just buried her face in the side of his neck and rubbed it gently.
What's going on?
Do you want to act coquettishly, or have you not thought about it and are feeling uncomfortable?
Li Jian'an was not good at guessing what was going on in his daughter's family, but he didn't want to watch Chun Ge cry anymore, and he also liked to see her relying on him, so he gently patted Chun Ge's back with his hand and spoke softly every word.
Reason with her.
"I've been worried about your soft temper. I've told you several times, but you still don't take it seriously. I don't want to interfere too much with your dowry maid, so I will help you take care of it this time. You will have to rely on yourself in the future."
Hearing him talk about Amber, Chun Ge's sadness that had not yet dissipated suddenly surged up again.
People are like this. When no one can rely on them, they always force themselves to be strong.
When someone really pampered and protected me, I realized that I was weak and pitiful.
Especially women!
Being held in Li Jian'an's arms and protected by him so tenderly, Chun Ge suddenly burst into tears and choked up: "She was not like this before."
Li Jian'an had vaguely heard some past events before, and knowing how sad Chunge was at this time, he gently touched her head.
"When I was a child, my father didn't like me, and my mother didn't care about me. There were many sisters in the family, so it was inevitable that some would bump into each other. The master was not favored, and the people below were bullied. She, Feicui, and Mother Tong, all followed me.
I suffered a lot of grievances and was often beaten.
When scolded, let alone those from above, even if they have children of the same status, they still look down on them. Originally, my mother was willing to take care of them occasionally, but then my aunt gave birth to Duanlang, so..." Although Chunge felt weak in her heart
