It was dusk, and the sky was filled with red clouds. In the wing room of Xiaozhu Courtyard, the Arhat bed was surrounded tightly, making it airtight.
Yu Qingwu was half lying on the bed, with a gloomy face and a pair of sharp and cold eyes. Through the curtains, he vaguely saw several figures approaching.
"Evil! Kneel down!" As soon as Shen Ke reached the bed, he was kicked to the ground by his father Shen Zongyuan.
Shen Zongyuan was simply furious.
Of course, he was angry not because Shen Ke had harmed Yu Qingwu, but because the Duke of Rongguo had lost face.
As soon as he stepped out of the palace today, he heard about his son Shen Ke's scandal.
All the way back, he didn't dare to raise his head.
At this moment, Shen Zongyuan became more and more angry as he looked at Shen Ke. He kicked him hard on the back, then looked at the figure behind the curtain, and as if he was telling her on purpose, he pointed at Shen Ke and yelled, "You're such an idiot." Duzi, from today onwards I will kneel down in front of your sister Awu’s bed and repent until she forgives you.”
"Ah Wu, it's all your second cousin's fault. It's your second cousin who can't forgive you. Don't let it go to your head. Don't worry, even if you are disfigured, even if you are no longer innocent, you will still be honored. As the second young mistress of the Duke's Mansion, this will never change no matter what."
At that time, Shen Ke's mother, Mrs. Xu, also came up, held Yu Qingwu's hand through the curtain, and made a vow, bursting into tears as she spoke.
If Mrs. Xu hadn't deliberately emphasized the word "innocent", Yu Qingwu might have actually believed her concern.
Withdrawing his hand without leaving a trace, Yu Qingwu's eyes were cold, but his voice was more subdued, and he whispered back outside the tent, "Don't worry, aunt, A Wu will never commit suicide, let alone break off the engagement with his second cousin. Even though in my heart I'm sad, but I don't want the Duke of Rong to bear the bad reputation of killing a donkey, and I don't want anyone to accuse my second cousin of being ruthless and unjust."
Speak softly and endure humiliation.
In just a few words, both Xu and Shen Zongyuan were stunned.
Their purpose in coming to Qingningyuan today is very simple. In the name of caring, they want to stimulate Yu Qingwu and force her to break off the engagement, or it would be better to just commit suicide in shame and anger!
But now, this girl is threatening them in turn!
Mrs. Xu's face froze, anger welling up in her heart. She glared at Yu Qingwu angrily through a curtain, but could not utter a word.
Seeing that Mrs. Xu didn't speak, Yu Qingwu spoke again, still gentle and gentle, "Aunt, uncle, I want to take a rest. You can go out first. Besides, I don't want to see anyone during this period. Grandma, please tell me. One sound."
"Uh, okay."
"Then you have a good rest..." Mrs. Xu looked unwilling, but did not dare to say another word.
This bitchy girl is right. Rumors are spreading everywhere now. If she dies or breaks off the engagement at this time, her son will definitely have a reputation of being heartless and heartless, and it may even affect his career.
Mrs. Xu panicked at the thought of such a ruined woman becoming her daughter-in-law.
The father and son Shen Zongyuan and Shen Ke were extremely at odds with each other, but in the end they did not dare to say a word. On the contrary, in order to explain to the outside world, Shen Ke had to give him a slap in the face.
With her reputation ruined and her family still having to provide her with good food and drinks, this family will hate themselves to death.
Yu Qingwu looked up at the bed frame and suddenly burst into laughter. Tears rolled down the corners of his eyes as he laughed, mixed with blood, and felt hot and painful.
But she didn't care. As long as she could avenge her parents, it was worth it even if she was crippled. What was disfigurement?
This has just begun.
In the darkness, Yu Qingwu wiped away his tears and slowly fell asleep listening to Shen Ke's shrill screams.
Shen Ke was beaten hard. In the dark night, he howled miserably and sharply, losing half of his usual nobility and humility.
After being beaten and humiliated, Shen Ke was too embarrassed to go out for a long time.
It wasn't until Mrs. Shen's birthday that she reluctantly went to the front hall to help.
Yu Qingwu also stayed in the house for nearly a month, but the scars on his face were still obvious.
Early winter is approaching and the weather is getting colder.
Yu Qingwu was wrapped in a cotton robe and sat quietly in front of the dowry.
The maid Yuzhu stood behind her, staring at the earthworm-eaten face in the mirror, and said sadly, "Girl, what should we do? Today is the old lady's birthday party, you can't go there with a veil. Front yard, right?”
"Yuzhu, you go down first, I will handle it myself." Yu Qingwu waved his hand and gave instructions softly.
Yuzhu was slightly startled and retreated.
Yu Qingwu stood up, took out the pen and ink from the box, and returned to the Linghua Mirror.
Since it can’t be covered, then simply paint a peony half-covering face...
"Your face is like this, and you still dare to scribble on it."
"Yu Qingwu, are you not afraid of being infected?"
As soon as Yu Qingwu's hand was stained with ink, an arm suddenly stretched out from behind and knocked the brush between her fingers to the ground.
The man's familiar and sinister voice made Yu Qingwu shudder. She turned around sharply. When she saw that handsome face with sharp edges, her face instantly turned pale and she shouted at him, "You...how did you get in? You are here again?" What do you want to do?” This chapter has been completed!
