Ershan, on the other hand, drank a few mouthfuls before being chased back to his room to study. Susu felt that he was pitiful, but Ershan disapproved and said that if it wasn't tough now, then he would be miserable in the future.
The Xiaowan was making a ruckus, Susu was afraid that she would be too happy, so she injured his child and begged Ling Chaofeng to bring her back. Ling Chaofeng smiled and picked her up, and said to Xiaowan: ”Shall we go back and make trouble?”
The people of the village still did not know that the Xiaowan was pregnant, they laughed merrily, so shy that the Xiaowan hid her face. As such, they blessed Susu and Da Qing and wanted to return to the tavern, and granted Susu a few days of leave so that she could settle her wedding and return to work.
As the night deepened, the shops on Baisha Town closed one by one. The town quieted down, and the doors to the Siyun Pavilion were also closed. The shop assistant who was closing the door looked at the street and sighed.
He didn't know if the county magistrate would come today, but he was worried that one day, his young mistress would die in his hands.
At this moment, Yue Huaiyin had just finished her bath and was wrapped in silk. As she walked past the mirror, her clothes suddenly slipped off her shoulders and a reflection of her scarred body appeared in the mirror.
Every inch of his skin was once a precious treasure that had been created on the palm of his hand. But now, it had been casually trampled upon by others. Would he know, would he feel sad? Would he still care about himself?
”Miss, let's clean up the bathtub.” Outside the door, the servant knocked on the door. Yue Huaiyin put on his clothes and let them in.
When they were busy, Yue Huaiyin suddenly asked: ”Is Susu married today?”
The servants replied: ”That's right, I heard that the Baisha Village is very lively today, so the people from the Ling Xiao Inn have all gone. They said that, somehow, this year, Ling Xiao Inn has gradually become a little different from before. More and more people have seen the Manager Ling, and they began to not believe that it was a black shop. ”
”Not in the first place.” Yue Huaiyin sneered.
”It's a pity that Susu didn't come to invite us.” The servant girls muttered, ”I thought she would definitely come to invite the young miss to have some wedding wine with us, I even prepared a wedding gift for her, but she can't give it to us anymore, it's such a big thing and she's not thinking about us anymore, Susu is seriously.”
They talked and carried their things out, and the room was quiet again.
Yue Huaiyin sat under the window while blowing on the hot and dry breeze, and was unable to calm her heart.
Although he was kicked out of the capital, his journey back was smooth sailing, and there wasn't anything difficult about his landing at Baisha Town.
However, she didn't know when it had started, but everything had turned sour. Everything she planned would eventually come to her.
Yue Huaiyin curled up and accidentally knocked her ankle against it. The pain had assaulted her and caused her to be extremely agitated, but a thought flashed through her mind as she remembered what happened last winter.
That day, when she intentionally threw herself in front of the inn in the snow and ice, it attracted Ling Chaofeng's warm welcome.
At the moment, Yue Huaiyin found it strange that her ankle had swollen like a steamed bun that day, and was filled with unbearable pain. It had almost hurt her bones, but the next day, it had actually completely recovered.
At that time, she had been completely immersed in the regret she had towards the elegant Ling Chaofeng, and had very quickly forgotten about this doubt. Thinking about it now, how could an ordinary person fall like that, and be cured on the second day?
Calmly thinking about it, everything that had to do with Ling Xiao Inn was so strange. They were indeed not a black shop, but they must have something different about them.
Yue Huaiyin sat up, if there was really something strange, how would she go about investigating it? Was the weird one Ling Chaofeng, or Mu Xiaowan?
”Miss.” Suddenly, he heard the servant girl's voice coming from outside the door. ”magistrate is here.”
Yue Huaiyin closed her eyes in disgust, but the man quickly broke through the door and laughed, ”Huai Yin, the old master has brought the ointment for you.”
The servants closed the door and quickly retreated. They did not know how the young miss was being tormented by the magistrate tonight, but they did not understand why the young miss had to rely on the county magistrate. Even if she had to leave the Baisha Town and go somewhere else to settle down, it would be better than becoming a plaything in the prefectural city.
A few young and beautiful maidservants were most afraid of a day when the young miss would hand her over to the county magistrate as well.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of June. The scorching summer had yet to leave, and July was about to arrive.
The newly wedded Susu had already returned to work, and over the past few days, everyone had been busy packing up Ershan's luggage. This time, Ling Chaofeng had entrusted a person from the mighty escort team to bring Ershan to the capital, and the people in the inn would not go any further after sending out the Li Prefecture.
On this day, Xiaowan's father came back. After passing through the Ling Xiao Inn, he came to see her daughter.
Xiaowan asked, ”Why did you only come back after the summer?”
The Master Mu laughed: ”After taking over a job, and getting to where I am now, and giving me a lot of money in the summer, I wanted to come back after I finished my work and go out next year. As I get older, I get older and older. In another two years, I'll be going home to farm. ”
As he spoke, he sized Xiaowan up and smiled: ”Looks like it's even better than January. Xiaowan, have you gotten fatter?”
Xiaowan didn't want to talk about him having a child. He didn't want his father to go back and talk to him, so he was silently cursed by the woman. He only laughed: ”Eat good food and drink everyday.
