Chapter 350 - She Is Not a Good Person (2/2)
He argued clumsily, “No, no. I missed you, too, Grandma.”
“Yes?” Ling Ruiyin pretended to ask in reply in a doubtful tone.
Mo Junzhan’s face stiffened, and he nodded seriously. “I really missed you a lot, Grandma.”
“Well. It’s great that you missed me.” Ling Ruiyin didn’t want to force him to tell the truth. After teasing the boy, she changed the subject.
On the other side, Shi Qingxue took Liang Zixin to have a walk around in a flat forest on Moon Mountain and talked about something unimportant randomly.
Most of them were poems and women’s skills such as needlework, and Liang Zixin could express her opinions.
She looked graceful and talked peaceful in a casual voice. Obviously, she was familiar with the things they mentioned but didn’t show off.
Her tone was gentle and lovely.
So Shi Qingxue introduced Liang Zixin to her friends.
Leng Jing had only heard about Liang Zixin’s name but never seen her, and she stared at the girl’s face curiously.
She praised involuntarily, “You are so beautiful.”
Liang Zixin blushed and lowered her head with shyness yet still expressed in a muffled voice, “Thank you.”
She was shy and would blush easily, like a frightened rabbit which would shrink back after being touched gently.
Shi Qingxue didn’t like such a person most in the past.
However, she saw that Liang Zixin would stutter and continue to chat with others even though she was red-faced and could hardly speak a word after they teased her.
Liang Zixin was not enthusiastic, nor did she have the talkative and elegant bearing, but she chatted with everybody seriously.
She looked sincere and talked genuinely, and her eyes seemed able to talk, so she was welcome.
In only one hour, Liang Zixin was surrounded by the other noble ladies, and all of them talked happily. They were not as distant as before.
Seeing that Liang Zixin adapted herself well and became the center of the young ladies, Shi Qingxue sighed with relief and thought that she lived up to the Empress Dowager’s entrustment.
However, she didn’t like to join in the fun with many people. After she chatted for a while, she went away sneakily when nobody noticed her.
Shi Qingxue wandered in the unpeopled forest alone and breathed the strong breath of spring. Then she breathed out deeply.
“It’s so comfortable.”
Spring was evident everywhere in April.
Shi Qingxue was dazzled by the spring breath around and enjoyed herself, while she suddenly heard a rustle under a big tree in the front.
“Is there a snake?”
Shi Qingxue was scared by her guess and couldn’t help but swallow.
All girls were afraid of snakes, and Shi Qingxue was included, while she didn’t forget herself or shout out of fear. Instead, she ventured to walk forward.
She walked cautiously and tried not to make sounds.
When she walked around the towering tree which could cover people’s sight, the rustle was right under her nose, and she couldn’t move her legs.
It was not a horrible big snake before her eyes but a couple who couldn’t control themselves. They lay in the green grass and rolled, with their clothes scattering on the ground and the fair skin revealed.
Shi Qingxue covered her eyes after taking a glance.
She planned to go away in panic as people shouldn’t look at things which did not conform to the rites.
Unexpectedly, as she walked in a hurry, she stepped on a dry branch. With a crack, it shocked all people.
“Who is here?”
Shi Qingxue heard a low and deep roar behind her and then a louder rustle. They must be putting on clothes.
She was more awkward and shouted hastily, “I didn’t see anything. I am leaving.”
In fact, she didn’t see anything clearly. She just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible where she was apt to get into trouble.
Unexpectedly, the voice behind didn’t let her go, while the person called in a low voice, “Qingxue?”
Gee?
Why did this voice sound so familiar?
Shi Qingxue thought that she had heard the male voice somewhere seemingly, and she couldn’t help but look back secretly. She happened to see the face of the man who had called her.
It was Mo Junhao unexpectedly.
Shi Qingxue was petrified and saw that Mo Junhao had put on trousers and got up.
Nobody knew whether time was limited or he did that intentionally, and the upper part of his body was still naked. He looked at her questioningly and didn’t mind letting her see his body seemingly.
The woman next to him was still picking up clothes in a great flurry. Her hair was messy, yet it could be seen that she had a bun earlier.
Although the woman subconsciously turned away to dodge, Shi Qingxue still recognized this person at a glance.
She was the second wife of the Minister of War Feng Jifeng, Madam Feng, whose family name was He.
Madam Feng was only about twenty-seven years old. She was young and beautiful. Even when she was in panic, she looked alluring and deserved Dong Hui’s comment about her, a seductress.
Right, Dong Hui’s word was unpleasant to hear.
This woman had been a home-breaker and tortured the previous Madam Feng to death. In less than seven days after the first wife died, she persuaded Feng Jifeng to marry her as the second wife, which irritated his son and daughter a lot.
The fourth prince’s wife Feng Mei must hate this woman most who snatched her mother’s title. She was chatting with others outside now, while her husband, the fourth prince was hiding in the forest and had sex with her step-mother.
Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but turn pale when she saw the dirty scene.
