MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

 Chapter 2 Back to the wedding day

Jingshu was woken up by the sound of getting dressed. When she opened her eyes, she saw that she was lying in the bathtub, wearing only a pink bellyband, and her whole body was submerged in the water. Li Ling's back was turned to her, and he was getting dressed.

How is this going? Li Ling clearly left her behind and went to the study last night.

 A lot of water was spilled on the bathroom floor, and pajamas were scattered around, looking a bit messy.

 It looked like they had just experienced a happy event.

"When did you come back?" Jing Shu, her mind full of confusion, looked at Li Ling and asked in surprise.

Li Ling was already fully dressed. He turned his head and replied, "What did you say?"

That is the face of a young man, a little green but heroic.

 It was the way he looked when she first met him, or rather when she first married him.

what happened? Could it be that you are dreaming? Jingshu was full of suspicion and pinched her thigh hard. The clear pain told her that this was definitely not a dream.

"I'm going to practice martial arts. You packed up earlier. You'll have to rush to the front to pay your grandma's birthday in a while." After saying that, Li Ling stepped out.

"Miss, I will help you get up." After a while, a familiar figure opened the shower curtain and walked in.

 It was Ziyun, the eldest girl who was serving beside her.

Less than a year after Ziyun followed her into the Duke's Mansion, her old mother became seriously ill, so she sent her home to take care of her mother. A year later, Ziyun's mother passed away and she reached the age of marriage, so Jingshu rewarded her with a sum of money and let her get married.

 “Why are you back?” Jing Shu asked doubtfully.

"My slave has been keeping vigil outside. Why do you ask that?" Ziyun brought a bath towel and continued: "When I went out, I asked my slave to serve the young lady and pack it up quickly. Today is the old lady's sixtieth birthday. She will have breakfast soon." Go out front and wait for the guests.”

 Mrs. Li’s 60th birthday?

Isn't that what happened just one month after she married Li Linggang?

 She clearly remembered that she had been married to Li Ling for five years and her life was depressing, so she proposed to divorce. Now it's actually back to the time when I was newly married to Li Ling! !

Jing Shu was confused and at a loss as to what to do.

Ziyun brought a bath towel to wipe her master's body: My young lady's body is so beautiful, her skin is so smooth that no water droplets can be stained on her, and her waist is softer than a wicker stick.

Even a woman likes her, let alone the vigorous prince. No wonder she keeps vigil outside every night and there is always endless music and music in the inner room? Seeing the faint red marks on Jingshu's body, Ziyun couldn't help but feel distressed: the young lady was born more delicate than a flower, and the uncle was so fierce that he demanded her every night, how could the young lady bear it?

“Miss, I’ll have the little kitchen prepare a bowl of bird’s nest in a moment.” Bird’s nest nourishes yin and is the most nourishing.

After finishing packing, Jingshu walked out of the bathroom in a daze and looked around the room. As expected, there were bright red words of joy on the carved window lattice.

While tidying up the bed, Ziyun said: "When I was leaving, I asked my slave to tell the young lady that the Ninth Princess will be here for the birthday banquet today. I asked you to get up and go to his study to get the purple gold inkstone. I met the Ninth Princess today and asked you to Give it to her."

 It’s really the same as it was in my previous life!

 In her previous life, she had just married into the Zhenguo Duke's mansion, and it was also in time for the old lady's birthday party. That morning, Li Ling pestered her on the bed for a long time before he gave up. Later, when she went to take a bath, she followed her in and pressed her in the tub to beg for it again.

 After she got up, Ziyun told her to go to the study to get the inkstone. The purple gold inkstone was very precious, and Li Ling usually did not allow others to touch it. When she heard that he wanted to give it to Qingluan, she was not happy at the time, but she did not dare to say anything about it.

 Think about how many years she had spent with him in her previous life. When had he given her anything?

Jingshu came to the study room in a depressed manner, picked up the purple gold inkstone on Li Ling's desk, put it in her hand and looked at it back and forth.

This inkstone is made of fine purple gold. Two green pines are vividly carved on it. There is a poem on the edge of the inkstone: Stick to the green mountains and never let go.

 She is such a "strong stick to the mountains and never relaxes." Li Ling really has deep affection for her.

　　Presumably in his previous life, Li Ling was afraid of the conflict between men and women, so he could not give this gift to Qingluan in person, so he borrowed her hand and asked her, as his wife, to help him secretly give and receive it to his sweetheart!

 Does Li Ling think she is a dead person? Does he care about her at all?

 She was extremely stupid at that time, and she was obviously unhappy, but in order to please Li Ling, she still deceived herself and explained it to him: It is normal for a brother to give something to his sister, and don't ask for chicken intestines.

After Jingshu took the inkstone, she returned to Qingfeng Garden full of worries.

The little girl Danzhu came up to her and asked, "Miss, someone was sent to the kitchen just now to send a message, saying that the bird's nest has been cooked. Can you prepare some shrimp cakes?"

“Didn’t you just eat shrimp cakes yesterday? Why are you eating this again today?” Bilu pouted at the side.

“Miss, what you ate yesterday was sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and you were the one who ate shrimp cakes, you idiot.” Danzhu tapped Bilui’s little head.

“You know that I am confused but you still hit me on the head, and you knock me even more confused.”

 A few little girls were joking here when Li Ling came in.

He has to practice martial arts for an hour in the early morning. This is a habit that cannot be shaken by severe cold and hot weather.

The little girls immediately shut up obediently, bowed their heads one by one, frowned and retreated respectfully.

Li Ling has a cold temperament, he is informal in his speech and laughter, and he is very strict about rules, so his servants all look down upon him.

There is also a good side to this, that is, she never worries about a girl with evil intentions causing any bed-climbing drama. The girls in the mansion always walked around him when they saw him. If they couldn't avoid it, they would stay two feet away from him. It was like a mouse meeting a cat in front of him, he couldn't be more honest.

Li Ling entered the house, hung the green sword in his hand on the wall, and then went into the bathroom.

After waiting for a while, Jingshu did not follow him. He leaned out of the bathroom and said to her: "Come in!"

He also has many eccentricities. He doesn't like to have maids and maids to serve him personally. She has taken care of things like taking a bath since she got married.

Jingshu followed him into the bathroom. Li Ling had taken off his martial arts uniform and was waiting for her to come and wipe him with his sweaty upper body naked.

Jingshu didn't wake up from this incident for a while. She numbly took the wet towel from Li Ling's hand and wiped his back.

He is tall and tall, and he has been practicing martial arts all year round. Through training, he has the arms and waist of a wasp and a very good figure.

Unfortunately, at the moment, Jingshu was fuming in her heart, but she had no intention of admiring this lively picture of a beautiful man. She just wiped it mechanically.

Li Ling saw that she was only focusing on one place, so he turned around and took the towel from her hand, soaked it in the basin again, and handed it to Jingshu's hand again. Then he faced her and gently stretched his arms, signaling to her Wipe down the front.

He can’t reach the back by himself, can’t he reach the front by himself? Jing Shu looked at him, looking like he was used to being served by her, and thought depressedly: Apart from being more handsome, such a stinky man is not worthy of being fought over by women.

"what you do?"

Jing Shu was wandering absentmindedly here when she heard Li Ling calling her. She came back to her senses and saw that because she had just lost her focus, the water dripping from the wet towel on her hand had already wet Li Ling's running pants. Li Ling glanced at the absent-minded Jingshu and said displeasedly: "Be careful."

He was picky when he asked her to serve him. This was the problem she had picked up on him in his previous life!

Jingshu stuffed the towel into Li Ling and said with a dull face: "I'm going to go to the front in a moment, I'll go and clean up first." After that, she left the bathroom without looking back.

Jingshu returned to the bedroom and called the little girls to come in and dress and put on makeup.

She sat in front of the mirror, looked at the beautiful face in the mirror, and compared it with herself who was later "tortured" to the point of being haggard, her heart was filled with emotions.

 What the hell, Li Ling! What rumors! And that Qingluan! Now that she has to do it again, she must live well and live for herself.

In her last life, since she lost her virginity and married into the Duke of Zhenguo's palace, she, who has always loved beauty, stopped dressing up. No matter how old-fashioned the clothes are, the simpler the hair accessories are, the better. At that time, she was extremely afraid of the rumors. She was always worried that if she dressed brightly, those rumors would be confirmed, others would laugh at her, and Li Ling would be embarrassed.

This time, she will not wrong herself again.

Li Ling felt a little unhappy when he saw Jingshu leaving him aside and going out on her own. His bride has always been gentle since she came in, but today she actually showed off to him. Could it be that in the past month of marriage, her previous meekness was just an act?

After Li Ling finished washing, he left the bathroom with a straight face. When he returned to the inner room and saw his wife, his eyes lit up.

Jingshu has packed up. She is wearing a white floral skirt with a crimson bra that is as bright as the morning sun. A green gauze belt is wrapped around her waist, outlining her graceful figure. Her cloud-like black hair stood high, and a nine-tailed red gold phoenix hairpin was inserted diagonally into her bun. The eyebrows are deep and dark, and the lips are as red as red.

The little woman descended to earth like a fairy, shining like a pearl, indescribably beautiful.

 Except for seeing her dressed up on her wedding day, she has been dressing in a low-key manner for the past month since her wedding. His bride was extremely beautiful, and even though she couldn't hide her beauty even in plain clothes and simple make-up, she was no more radiant than when she was dressed up.

"Come here and have breakfast, you have to rush to the front." Jing Shu called.

Li Ling said "hmm" and walked towards her.

The maid served breakfast, and Jing Shu and Li Ling sat down facing each other at the dining table. Li Ling was accustomed to waiting for his bride to serve soup and dishes for him, but he never thought that after Jingshu filled her own portion, she went to use it by herself and ignored him at all.

 Li Ling felt unhappy, and just about to speak to instruct her, he glanced at the beautiful lotus face that was as bright as a peach and plum but had a coldness to it. He swallowed back the words he was about to say and filled the soup himself.

"You don't have to worry. You are the first to come to the house. Today, you have a sister-in-law to treat the female guests. Just follow your grandmother." Li Ling thought that the bride was acting abnormally because she was nervous about going to entertain guests for a while.

Jing Shu snorted in her heart, but it was rare that he would still have plans for her.

 In her previous life, she had just married into the Zhenguo Duke's mansion, and it was the old lady's birthday. She was a bride and was plagued by rumors. How uneasy was she? How could he give her any advice?

She was not familiar with anyone in the house at that time. She was neither the guest nor the host at the bustling banquet, and she was as embarrassed as if she was being tortured. Those ladies looked at her coldly as if they were laughing. She, who had always wanted to be strong, was so embarrassed that she even wanted to die.

In the end, the sister-in-law Xu Wanning, who was busy organizing the birthday banquet, couldn't stand it and took her to the old lady's side.

 At night, she cried in shame and humiliation under the quilt. When he came back in the middle of the night and saw her like this, he actually asked her as if to blame: "Why are you crying on this big day?"

She felt aggrieved, but she didn't dare to complain to him. She was afraid that he would be angry, so she bit her lip and choked with sobs, saying it was because she missed home.

He didn't have the patience to ask any more questions. When he got into bed, he just continued to pester her endlessly as usual.

 Now he comes to make some arrangements for her, but she doesn’t need it anymore!

 Let’s start over again, she figured it out. She doesn't need to deliberately please anyone. She has done nothing untoward, and there is no need to care about those deliberately defamatory rumors.

"Although I am a bride, I am also the wife of the crown prince. There is no reason for my sister-in-law to handle such a big event as my grandmother's birthday banquet alone while I hide behind it. I am just helping my sister-in-law to entertain the guests today."

This sister-in-law is Li Ling’s cousin-in-law. There are four brothers in Li Ling's generation, one cousin, one younger brother, and one half-brother.

Li Ling didn't expect that she would be so independent.

He took a piece of shrimp cake and put it in Jingshu's bowl: "Okay, then you can follow my sister-in-law and let her help you."

“I have already fetched the purple gold inkstone for the prince and placed it on the small table on the couch in the outer room.”

Li Ling took a sip of the soup and said calmly: "Well, I'm sorry to bother you. Just give Qingluan the inkstone to her when she comes today."

Jingshu lowered her eyelids and replied coldly: "I'm sorry that I can't do it for you."

Hearing this, Li Ling paused, put down the soup bowl in his hand, and asked, "Why?"

Jingshu replied with a dull face: "I am not familiar with her. If the prince wants to give her something, he can do it himself."

Those who have monthly tickets in their hands, please support me! grateful!

The new article "After giving way to your husband's sweetheart" has been released, welcome to read!

Love watched helplessly as her husband Sima Chao married another princess to realize his ambition, and she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

Sima Chao hugged her into his arms and coaxed softly: "Afu, you are the only one in my heart. If you are worthy of the country, I will definitely set you right."

Love believed him because she was obsessed with him.

It wasn’t until Sima Chao killed the flesh and blood of his princess wife that he was about to enter the house with his own hands that Love realized how much sincerity a person who was cruel to his own children could have towards her.

　　　It's just that he is lying and she is obsessed with it.

Love finally saw clearly the person next to her. She was completely heartbroken and died in despair the day before Sima Chao married the princess in glory.

Starting over, Love decided not to make the same mistakes again, but when she opened her eyes, she saw the whole house filled with joy, and she actually returned to her wedding night with Sima Chao.

　　—

Sima Chao, a great hero of a generation, fought against the princes and unified the world, which was his lifelong ambition. For this reason, he did not hesitate to let down his beloved.

He thought: If she can treat the world well, he will give her the highest status in the world, and it will not be too late to slowly repay the deep love he owes her.

As everyone knows, if you miss something, it will be hard to get it back. When he turned back to her, she had already turned away.

He won the world and had everything, but he only lost her.

When Sima Chao saw her smiling broadly at the man beside her, he finally became anxious, his eyes turned red, and he regretted it.
