Happy Lady: The black-bellied man is quick to admit it

Chapter 218 Protecting the Shortcomings is Right (2)

Rong Xinqian grabbed the palace sash, twirling it with her fingers. After a while, she lowered her head and said in frustration, "Husband, I think I might have gotten into trouble..."

Get into trouble?

Pei Chengxia raised his eyebrows lightly, and smiled indifferently: "So the lady is confessing to the window?"

There was a joke in his voice, but Rong Xinqian blamed himself even more.

She bit her lip before she said, "I might, maybe I offended Madam."

Pei Chengxia didn't raise his eyebrows this time, but frowned instead.

He knew that the "Madam" Rong Xinqian referred to was Jiang Shi, but he didn't understand how Rong Xinqian's good manners would provoke Jiang Shi?

Could it be that while he was away, the Jiang family came to find trouble with his family Qianqian?

Seeing that Rong Xinqian was restless, Pei Chengxia patted her on the head comfortingly, and said with a slight smile: "Don't be so busy blaming yourself, just tell me the whole story."

He only cared about the anger she expected, Rong Xinqian felt relieved when she saw this, she slightly pursed her lips, and said that in the morning Zhang Nanny had brought someone to take Lian Dong away, she stopped her and was arrested in Songyuan. He told Pei Chengxia everything about the isolation from the beginning to the end.

"Liandong is by my side. I have always treated her like a sister. This time, she is really just a relapse of an old disease, not the epidemic. I don't want Madam Zhang to bring her to Zhuangzi." Thinking of how many maids, maidservants and aunts from rich and noble families in the book she had read would die within a few days after being taken to some Zhuangzi, Rong Xinqian still felt a little scared. "Sorry, I was too impulsive."

Pei Chengxia sighed helplessly, pulled her into his arms, hugged her, and then he slowly said: "Qianqian, do you blame yourself like this because you don't trust me?" Without waiting for Rong Xinqian to answer, he She chuckled again, and continued, "Lady, you did a great job on this."

"Okay, great?"

"Oh, if you can't even protect the people around you, it will only make people think you are easy to bully." Pei Chengxia rubbed the top of her hair, and said, "Jiang Shi asked Nanny Zhang to take away your maid , Guess what she's up to."

Rong Xin blinked lightly: "Isn't it because of Lonicera's illness?"

"This is still the second, you guess."

Recalling Nanny Zhang's reaction at that time, Rong Xinqian seemed dazed and confused, and murmured, "Could it be aimed specifically at Songyuan." Targeting Songyuan was also targeting her and Pei Chengxia.

Pei Chengxia smiled softly, turned her to face him, nodded her Qiong nose, and said unhurriedly: "This is not far away."

"Ok?"

Pei Chengxia pursed his lips and said, "It's better to say that they are here for you than to say they are here for your little girl."

"Aiming at me?" Rong Xin was puzzled.

"I'm a 'disabled person' now, and I won't directly threaten them, but Qianqian, you are not only my wife, but also the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the Pei family. Mother doesn't care about things now, and the Jiang family will preside over the gift , but there is no guarantee that one day this power will not fall on you, so..."

"Give me a show of authority first?" She has seen this routine before in the storybook.

"Qianqian is really smart." Pei Chengxia boasted.

Rong Xin frowned lightly, and asked with a puzzled expression, "So that's why we cut off Songyuan?"

Pei Chengxia smiled and shook his head: "Yes. But not all of them."

"I don't understand that."

"Songyuan is isolated, people inside can't get out, and people outside can't get in. Besides us, who else will be affected?"

Rong Xin frowned slightly: "You mean, mother?"

Once this conjecture came out, how could Rong Xinqian sit still?Immediately breaking free, Pei Chengxia wanted to stand up, but the latter quickly pulled her back.

Pei Chengxia said helplessly: "Don't worry, lady, just listen to me."
