Shi Qingxue shrank her neck nervously, and her hands tightened Mo Junyang's neck again, and whispered, "What's wrong?"
Mo Junyang stared down at Shi Qingxue, and she was like a frightened rabbit. His cold expression became softer, and said gently, "Don't move, let me hold you for a longer while."
Shi Qingxue, "..."
Somehow, she suddenly remembered that in her last life, the man was also holding her so tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear and would not release for a moment.
For a while, she felt a little warm in her heart. Her arrogance when facing Mo Junyang in spare time couldn't arouse at this moment, and she couldn't even refuse Mo Junyang.
After a while, the man seemed to calm down the emotions in his heart, slowly released his hands, and put Shi Qingxue down.
Shi Qingxue's heart was warm but also embarrassed, and her eyes were looking around. She just didn’t dare to look at Mo Junyang
Shen Luo's joking expression suddenly changed, and asked seriously, "What's going on? Why did all the poisonous things in Mang Mountain come here?" "Isn't it caused by you?" Qingxue was even more unpeaceful when she mentioned this. If it had not been for Shen Luo's hard tests, she would not have been so unlucky before. But when Shen Luo heard it, his face was full of doubt, and pointed to himself stupidly, "Me? What have I done?" This confused expression did not seem to be pretended. Shi Qingxue and Mo Junyang looked at each other and seemed to understand what the problem was. "Then the large group of centipedes that I just met in the middle of the mountain weren't released out by you to test me?" Shi Qingxue asked tentatively. Shen Luo quickly shook his head, crying without tears, "My test won't risk others' lives. As for you, even letting you go up the mountain alone is a symbolical test. How do I dare to releas
Halfway up Mang Mountain, the other members of the Shi family waited for a day. They still had not seen Shi Qingxue or anyone else walking down the mountain.Dong Shuang was so anxious that he tried to go up the mountain to find Shi Qingxue several times but each time she was stopped by Shi Baoyan.Shi Qingxue was absent, and so Shi Baoyan was the only master. Even if these subordinates were reluctant, they must listen to her commands.Shi Baoyan was very satisfied by this, especially when the sun rose on the second day, and Shi Qingxue was still missing. She couldn’t help but grin."Qingxue still hasn’t come down yet. Presumably, she was left by the skilled doctor on the mountain. It’s no use for us to wait here. Let’s go back and make a plan!" Shi Baoyan coughed, ordering people to pack up and go home.Dong Shuang's eyes widened. How unbelievable was it that Shi Baoyan dared to leave Shi Qingxue and walk away?!
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely cold. Everyone thought that Mo Shujun would be furious. They saw the old madam’s face stiff for a moment and then smiled slightly, “How it is that grandmother can say such negative things about Dong Hui? Just now, grandmother worried about your safety. I only said those things when I was in a hurry. You…”Perhaps she also knew that this discussion was fruitless. Mo Shujun turned to Dong Hui and sighed softly, “Be done with it. What I just said is out of line. Dong Hui, you need not take offense.”Dong Hui had always been bullied by Mo Shujun a lot. She rarely spoke softly to her, don’t even think about an apology.Although not much sincerity could be heard in Mo Shujun’s words, at least her attitude was revealed. Dong Hui with reverence and awe, fear and trepidation waved, not daring to speak.It was all over.But Zhou Ruyu and the others’ eyes almost popped out and they were ve
The name of Madam Kou is Kou Lian. She was a distant relative of Shi Lei. Her family declined, and thanks to the princess royal, she was sheltered in the Shi Family and lived her life. However, she seduced Duke Shi Junhe and at last married him. She even wanted to take the place of Dong Hui to be the Duchess.It was pitiful that she only gave birth to a daughter, Shi Baoyan, so she could just be an aggrieved concubine.Dong Hui didn’t want others to think that she was mean to the concubines. As long as Kou Lian didn’t cause any serious trouble, she wouldn’t bother to pay attention. But this time Kou Lian knelt on the ground as soon as she came in. She didn’t talk, but burst into tears. She was acting aggrieved as if she had been bullied by someone.Dong Hui watched coldly and didn’t come up to stop her. When Kou Lian cried for a long time and started to feel out of breath, she slowly said, “You start to cry when you come in. Are you trying to m
“Anesthesia powder? What’s that?” Shen Luo looked at Shi Qingxue in surprise. How could he not know that the Mo Dynasty had such magical medicine, which couldn’t make people feel the pain?Shi Qingxue was astonished, and she remembered that anesthesia powder was introduced into the Mo Dynasty from other places a few years later. Even the skilled doctor Shen Luo had no way to make a person feel no pain and do no harm.“No, nothing. I am wrong.” Shi Qingxue smiled awkwardly and secretly looked at Mo Junyu.Mo Junyu’s face was as usual, as if he had never heard of anesthesia powder. He didn’t look like a prophet at all.Did she guess wrong?At this time, Shi Qingxue could not be certain whether Mo Junyu was reborn or not, but she didn’t dare to test him easily. She changed the subject vaguely.Seeing the two turned their attention back to Shi Baoning, she was finally relieved.She didn’t know at
Shi Baoning grabbed Shi Qingxue to sit down in the room. Her face blushed, and she seemed a little embarrassed. After a while, she whispered, “Isn’t it Qiqiao Festival a few days later?”Shi Qingxue nodded, and her look became even more confused. Why was the annual Qiqiao Festival worth of Shi Baoning’s worries?“In the past, I was not in a good health. Basically, Grandma wouldn’t allow me to attend any banquets. But this year, I feel much better, and Empress Dowager has sent the fancy stationery. So I think...” Shi Baoning hesitated, and was embarrassed to continue to say.After all, no one could believe that Shi Baoning, the eldest daughter of Duke Shi, had never attended any banquet and needed to prepare much for a banquet.Unfortunately, Shi Baoning really asked the wrong person in this matter.Although Shi Qingxue understood, she was still confused. She asked, “It was just a banquet on Qiqiao Festival. It will be
Empress Dowager, Ling Ruiyin heard Shi Qingxue’s words, and the kind smile on her face faded a little.Looking at Shi Baoning, who had been sitting quietly, although she looked not as energetic and cute as Shi Qingxue, the elegance showed on her could also be outstanding among those noble ladies in aristocratic families.She was indeed the granddaughter raised by Mo Shujun herself!Ling Ruiyin nodded secretly and glanced at Qingxue again. Seeing that big wet eyes filled with sincere expectations, she couldn’t bear to refuse her. She called Shi Baoning with a smile, “Is First Lady of the Shi Family also here? I always hear Princess Royal mention you. But I barely meet you since you were always in poor health.Come to me and let me take a closer look. What’s so outstanding that makes Xue so jealous?”These words really made the noble ladies sitting below extremely jealous!It was a great honor for a noble la
Shi Qingxue looked at Jing Yi in surprise, “Isn’t my sister still painting in her seat just now? How could the painting be missing?”But Jing Yi was so anxious that she couldn’t even explain what had happened. Shi Qingxue could only follow her to find Shi Baoning. Shi Baoning was seen sitting at the table upset, and her eyes were red, as if she had cried.“Baoning, what’s going on?” Shi Qingxue glanced at the drawing table. There were only used brush and ink on it, but the painting was missing.When Shi Baoning saw Qingxue, her pale face suddenly looked excited. She grabbed Qingxue’s hand as if she had seen the last straw, and hurriedly said, “I was painting here just now. A pillar of joss sticks of time ago, I finished “Affection”. But when I turned around to chat with Third Lady and the others, the painting was gone. What should I do now?”“What did Shi Baojin say to you?” Shi Qingxue keenly captured the key of the problem. She i
