Yigui Hall is the largest place in the house, and it is more luxurious than the courtyard where Fu Shen lives.
This mansion is very big, but not many people live there. Fu Shen has no parents or children, and only Liu Rao lives in the backyard. Therefore, Nuo Da's mansion is particularly deserted.
Huan Ci slept restlessly in this place all night, and when he got up the next morning, he resumed his appearance as when he came yesterday.
Last night, Sweeping Ye reminded her that there are many people here and she should pay more attention and not dare to reveal her true identity.
Huan Ci thought about it and still felt that he should get his things back as soon as possible.
She originally wanted to secretly inquire about the news, but was caught by Fu Shen as soon as she entered the city. Now that the man took her as a prisoner, he had no intention of handing her over, which really put her in a dilemma.
When she got up early in the morning, she was told that Fu Shen had gone to court. Huan Ci had nothing to do, so he thought about walking around Fu Shen's yard, what if he had a chance to go in and find her things?
However, she was stopped before she even reached the door. There were many people guarding the yard inside and outside, and it would be a fool's errand to sneak in.
Huan Ci sighed almost inaudibly and planned to go home. When he walked to a corridor, he suddenly heard someone chatting at the corner.
She listened carefully and found that the two women were discussing Fu Shen.
"I heard from the gatekeeper that our third master has an outhouse, do you know about this?" one of the women said.
The other woman shook her head: "Never heard of it? Where is this woman from?"
"I don't know about that either. I only heard that my surname is Chen and that she is still pregnant." The woman sighed and then said, "I heard that Mrs. Chen is about to give birth, so my brother came to invite the third master."
"The third master didn't go out last night," another woman said.
"Who knows, maybe they sent someone there. I heard they came after Haizheng last night. Everyone was asleep. No one knows who I asked."
Huan Ci pursed his lips. He didn't expect that the lie she told the gatekeeper would spread. This was really her fault.
She was just about to make some noise to remind the two of them, when she suddenly heard them mention Liu Rao.
"I met Alan when I came here just now, and I heard from her that Mrs. Liu is coming back today."
"Didn't you say you're going to rest for half a year? Are you coming back in just a few days? Did you hear about what happened in my outer room?"
"Who knows? It depends on the time. Our father had an extramarital affair just before he went to Puzhou. I used to envy Mrs. Liu, but I still don't have a wife. She is the only one in the backyard. But now it seems that men
They’re all the same.”
When Huan Ci mentioned Liu Rao, what he thought of was her running to Xiyin Tower alone.
She had not met Liu Rao when she was in Puzhou, nor had she heard Fu Shen talk about it. It turned out that the woman had gone to another place to recuperate, perhaps because Fu Shen discovered what happened in Xiyin Tower.
Huan Ci wanted to listen in the corner for a while, but suddenly he heard someone coming from behind.
She turned around and took a look. It was a maid carrying a tray walking past.
"Young Master is lost?" the maid asked as she walked up to her.
Huan Ci nodded following her words, and the voices of the two women disappeared immediately.
After returning to the courtyard to rest for a short while, a servant came to invite her to Fu Shen's courtyard.
After she left, Fu Shen had just returned from the palace and was changing clothes in his room, so she had to go to the study to wait.
The study room is divided into two rooms. There are many books on the shelves in the outer room, and a desk and bed are placed in the inner room. It looks very elegant.
The boy who saw Huan Ci off did not come in, leaving only Huan Ci here.
There was no one else around, and Huan Ci was secretly happy. After making sure that no one was looking at her, she began to touch and look around, trying to find the things that Fu Shen had taken away.
After searching outside for a long time and still finding nothing, Huan Ci felt a little disappointed and turned his attention to the box on the desk.
Just as he walked over, Fu Shen's voice came from outside.
"Where are the people?" he asked in a low voice.
"We were still here just now." Someone said softly.
Only then did Huan Ci realize that the table was placed in a unique position. People outside had to walk to the inner door to see it.
She was about to go out when suddenly a servant came running up panting.
"Third Master, Mrs. Liu is back and is on her way here." The man panted.
Fu Shen nodded and said, "Invite her over."
Huan Ci immediately panicked. The people around him might not know her, but Liu Rao knew her. What if she was recognized?
She hurriedly held her breath and concentrated, then slowly squatted down and hid in the corner next to the desk.
At this moment, a burst of footsteps approached the study very quickly, and it sounded like there were quite a few people there.
Then she heard a group of people entering the study, and Liu Rao's familiar voice soon came.
"You all go down, I have something to say to the third master." The woman ordered everyone as soon as she came in.
She glanced at Fu Shen, who was frowning, and felt a little unhappy.
Fu Shen looked at her in confusion, and after taking two steps towards her, his brows furrowed deeper: "Have you been drinking?"
"He's getting married, isn't he?" Liu Rao answered the question.
"You should ask him." The man's voice sounded a little cold.
"What qualifications do I have to ask him?" Liu Rao sneered, "Besides, I am your woman, the concubine he gave to you."
Huan Ci blinked and thought about their words secretly.
Liu Rao was given to Fu Shen by someone else? So who is this person? These two people talked in a secretive way, which really made her depressed.
When she pricked up her ears to listen carefully, there was a sudden sound of a chair falling down outside.
Huan Ci secretly glanced outside and suddenly realized that she could see the hem of Fu Shen's clothes. Fu Shen was sitting on a chair outside, but she couldn't see the man's face.
She secretly stretched out her hand to hide the hem of her skirt, but was frightened by the clothes that suddenly flew over and froze in place.
Liu Rao quickly took off his outer clothes and stood in front of the man with bare arms: "Since he gave me to you, I should be yours. Can you understand what I say?"
Huan Ci stared blankly at the clothes around his legs and quickly understood what he meant.
Liu Rao came back today and came to hug her. But now that she is still here, the two of them will not really want to be here——
Her face turned red instantly, and she even breathed cautiously.
However, Liu Rao had no idea about this. She felt a sense of frustration when she looked at the expressionless Fu Shen.
Seeing a sudden flash of surprise in the man's eyes, she thought her method had worked and began to reach out to unbutton his buttons.
"Stop messing around." Fu Shen turned away from her and said coldly.
Liu Rao grinned miserably: "How could I be fooling around? That's what I originally thought."
She raised her head and glanced at the man who looked away from her, and sneered: "So you men will still refuse? It's really ridiculous. Or are you afraid of him in your heart, so you are still enduring it now?"
"You're drunk. I'll have someone take you back to rest." Fu Shen stood up and said.
Liu Rao sneered and said softly: "I'm pregnant."
This time, not only Huan Ci, but also Fu Shen's face was full of surprise.
Liu Rao looked at the man's changes with satisfaction and smiled: "I want to tell him that this child is yours."
"Are you crazy?" Fu Shen frowned and looked at her with a somewhat disgusted expression.
"Humph!" Liu Rao raised his chin and looked at him with contempt, "Do you think he will believe me?"
Huan Ci was listening carefully when suddenly there was no sound outside.
She waited for a few breaths but heard no movement. She turned her head curiously, and suddenly found a tall figure beside the door, pinned firmly to her body.
When their eyes met, she clearly saw anger in the man's eyes.
Fu Shen leaned over and picked up the clothes on the ground, threw them on Liu Rao, and said in a cold voice: "Come here, take Mrs. Liu back."
As soon as he finished speaking, several people came in from outside and took Liu Rao away, half asking and half pulling him away.
Huan Ci squatted for a long time, his legs were numb and stiff. He was holding on to the table and was about to stand up, but he didn't want to touch the box on the corner of the table. As a result, he and the box fell to the ground.
The box hit her feet hard, then fell to the ground, and the books scattered on the floor came out.
Fu Shen's expression became more terrifying as the box fell. Unfortunately, Huan Ci was too busy rubbing his feet to notice his changes.
Huan Ci's face turned cold as she watched the man quickly pick up the books on the ground and put them back into the box like a baby, without even thinking of giving her a hand.
She got up, patted the dust on her body, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Mr. Fu's concubine is pregnant. It's such a happy event. Congratulations, you're going to be a father."
Fu Shen stared at her red lips that opened and closed, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and a wave of waves flashed across his eyes as deep as a deep pool.
"Are you happy?" the man asked softly.
Huan Ci smiled even more wildly: "That's natural. Mr. Fu is already very old, so you must take good care of Miss Liu. This child may be your only son, so don't miss it."
Fu Shen twitched his lips: "What did you come in for?"
"Didn't you invite me here?" Huan Ci curled his lips and said, "Who knew you not only invited me here, but also invited me to watch a play."
Hearing this, Fu Shen glanced at her with lowered eyes and said softly: "You can go."
"Are you playing with me?" Huan Ci's anger suddenly rose and he glared at him angrily, "Where are my things? Give them to me quickly."
"You want it? Yes. As long as you make me happy, I will give it to you."
Huan Ci narrowed his eyes: "How to coax him?"
"I want to practice calligraphy now, but I need a polisher." The man said softly.
Huan Ci hurriedly rolled up his sleeves: "It's easy to talk, isn't it just grinding ink? The ink I grind is really good."
After saying that, she jumped to the table in a few steps, selected an ink ingot and started grinding it.
Fu Shen looked at her lowered head, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and stepped forward to choose a pen.
It would be okay if it lasted for a while, but Huan Ci had never done this himself, and Fu Shen actually kept writing. Every word was written big and black, and the ink she grinded out was soon covered with
Used up.
"What, are you tired?"
The man stopped writing and looked up at her.
"Not tired." Huan Ci looked at him with a smile, "Are you tired?"
"I'm not tired either." The man raised his lips at her, "You're too slow."
The smile froze on Huan Ci's face. She secretly rolled her eyes, pouted and continued grinding.
