My Lord, your wife is spreading rumors about you again.

Chapter 75 I’m easy to coax

"tolerate?"

Mingli stretched out the last syllable and sneered, "It's like this on the first day of our wedding. Who can stand it if it continues like this every day? And you still want me to tolerate him? I don't even know what I said to offend him!"

"Ah?" Nanny Li looked at Mingli in shock: "Miss, are you talking about the prince for this matter?"

"I told you."

Mingli thought that Nanny Li was standing at the door and heard their conversation with Shen Ke, so he asked, "Nanny, why is it that everyone else has no problem, but Zhang Zhi has no problem?"

Nanny Li's face tightened. "So, the young lady and the prince were arguing about this just now?"

"Yes!" Mingli nodded heavily, and his anger, which had calmed down a little, rose again: "He was afraid, and I didn't ask him to do it. I chose to do it myself, but he still didn't want to. He is not rational at all, not calm at all! Not only that, but he also argued with me with a red face!"

Nanny Li didn't expect Mingli to tell her everything about the boudoir in such detail. It seems that marriage can really change a person.

Nanny Li sighed again and advised, "Young lady, it is true that the prince was wrong, but it is not his own fault. In matters like that, a man's self-esteem is always greater than anything else, so you should just say less."

"What is Madam saying? I don't quite understand." Mingli turned his head and asked in confusion.

"Alas, young lady, you have experienced a lot, why are you still pretending to be stupid in front of me?" Li Ma Ma smiled meaningfully, "If young lady really feels uncomfortable in the future, you can ask Liu Liu to go out quietly to find some fun for you, so that you can relax. It will be good."

The more Mingli listened, the more confused she became. She was annoyed and just wanted to wash up and go to bed quickly, so she just said "hmm". However, this "hmm" was firmly remembered by Li Ma.

When Mingli finished washing and returned to the main house, he saw that Zhang Zhi had already finished washing. He was wearing a bright red middle-length coat and sitting beside the tea table with a unhappy look on his face.

When he heard Mingli coming in, he just looked up and didn't say anything else.

Mingli had not been around many people since she was a child. When she was in Yaodu Mountain, her master was in seclusion all year round, and she was the most powerful person in the mountain. When she came to the capital, she was even more ruthless and frightening. Anyone who caused trouble for her would never have a good ending. Gradually, her temper was cultivated to be more willful and arrogant. After a fierce quarrel just now, Mingli would never go out and ask Zhang Zhi to leave even if she died.

The woman was wearing a snow-white middle dress, barefoot, with black hair hanging down to her waist, and water drops still falling from the ends of her hair. The silver moonlight poured in through the window lattice, adding a touch of coldness and indifference to her.

She stepped on the soft blanket, climbed onto the couch, and slept on her side at the outermost edge. Although her eyes were closed, her mind was extremely clear. Mingli pricked up her ears, paying attention to any movement made by Zhang Zhi.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Half an hour passed.

An hour and a half passed.

Just when Mingli was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps in his ears. The owner of the footsteps deliberately moved lightly.

He stood in front of the couch for a long time. It was almost midnight. Mingli really didn't want to continue to stay up with him like this.

She sat up and glared at Zhang Zhi angrily: "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

"You, haven't slept yet?"

Zhang Zhi was stunned. He thought Mingli had already fallen asleep. Mingli took a deep breath and forced a fake smile: "How can I sleep when you are sitting there like a wandering soul and lighting candles all over the room?"

Zhang Zhi's eyes were dull, and he nodded: "I'll take the bedding and go to the ear room to sleep."

"What side room?" Ming Li's heart tightened, and he said directly: "We just had a quarrel, and you don't want to stay in the same room with me? Zhang Zhi, your mind is smaller than the eye of a needle."

"No." Zhang Zhi suddenly had an idea. He pursed his lips deliberately, looking like he was being bullied.

He leaned over, picked up his own quilt, and said pitifully, "Then why don't you go to the side room? I'll make a bed on the floor next to you."

Mingli was so angry that she threw off the quilt on her body, knelt on the couch, snatched the quilt from Zhang Zhi's hand, and threw it heavily onto the place where she had just slept.

"You sleep outside!"

Then, Mingli moved his quilt inside, cursed "It's so annoying", and fell asleep with his back to Zhang Zhi.

Zhang Zhi lowered his head, pinched himself hard twice, and thought about all the sad things in his life before he could hold back his laughter.

He looked at Mingli's long hair scattered on the couch and his small body curled up in the quilt, and felt that all his anger and rage disappeared in an instant.

No wonder people say there is no overnight hatred between husband and wife. Seeing the girl I love still let me sleep next to her angrily after a quarrel, even if she slapped me twice just now, I would have been happy to accept it.

Zhang Zhi climbed onto the bed quietly and smelled the cool plum scent on Mingli's body as soon as he got close. His movements were still a little awkward and he didn't dare to move, for fear that Mingli would misunderstand his thoughts.

He couldn't help but glance sideways to look at her back.

This was the girl he had wanted to marry for more than a decade. Now, just like a dream, she was actually sleeping peacefully beside him.

"Zhang Zhi."

Mingli called him in a daze. Zhang Zhi was startled and thought he had bumped into her, "What's wrong?"

"From now on, you can quarrel as much as you want, but you are not allowed to ignore others." She must be about to fall asleep, but somehow she wanted to say this.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhi chuckled and said, "I didn't ignore you. I was just afraid that you didn't want to pay attention to me, so I held back and didn't speak."

Mingli uttered a muffled "hmm".

She was silent for a while. Just when Zhang Zhi thought the conversation was over and they were both going to sleep, she heard Mingli speak again: "But I will ignore you. But I am easy to coax. If you coax me a few times, I will be fine."

Zhang Zhi felt warm in his heart and nodded along with her: "Okay, I'll remember that. From now on, whenever we have a fight, I'll coax you."

"Well, go to sleep."

Zhang Zhi stretched out his hand and covered Mingli's shoulders with the quilt. Later, he would know how difficult it was to coax Mingli's so-called "easy to coax".

Anyone who has tried to coax Mingli will, without exception, want to bang his head against a wall afterwards.

The next day, just as the sky was bright, Shancha ran in and shouted, "Second Miss!"

"Second aunt."

Shancha slammed on the brakes. She looked at the two pairs of messy shoes in front of the couch and realized that Mingli was already married and Zhang Zhi was lying on the bed.

She was about to pretend nothing happened and leave when she saw the bed curtain being lifted from the inside by a hand. Zhang Zhi straightened his clothes and said in a hoarse voice, "Speak softly, she's still asleep. Tell me, what happened?"

"My Lord," Shan Cha saluted hastily, holding up a token with both hands. "Early this morning, the old marquis sent someone to deliver the family master's token to the second young lady. At this moment, the two young masters of the second and fifth branches of the Zhang family are kneeling in the ancestral hall to force the old marquis to take back the token."
