If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Chapter 56: My husband, are you questioning me?



Chapter 56: My husband, are you questioning me?

Shen Sui'an was just about to take a nap when Aunt Guan and Aunt Lin came.

"Serve them some tea and ask them to sit for a moment." Shen Suian put on a half-new light blue cross-collar jacket and came out to meet them.

As soon as Aunt Guan saw her, she couldn't help but secretly look at Shen Sui'an's complexion.

Just now she heard that the eldest young lady had fainted in the upper room due to fright, but now she seems to be in good health. Isn't it possible that she recovered too quickly?

"I heard that the eldest young lady was not feeling well, and we felt uneasy, so we thought we had to come and say hello." Aunt Lin stood up and bowed.

Aunt Guan finally reacted and stood up to salute.

Shen Sui'an smiled and asked them to sit down and talk. "The doctor has checked and it's nothing serious. You guys made this special trip, it's really thoughtful of you."

"Is Aunt Guan feeling better?" Shen Sui'an was pretending to be unconscious and didn't really want them to focus all their attention on him.

"Much better. Thank you, Eldest Young Madam, for your concern." Aunt Guan forced a smile. Yesterday, she sent someone to invite Lu Yuan, obviously intending to snatch him away from the Eldest Young Madam's room. It would have been fine if she could have snatched him away, but she failed to snatch Lu Yuan away, and it seemed that this had displeased Lu Yuan.

Shen Sui'an pretended not to know what Aunt Guan was thinking, and said with concern, "It's very cold this time, it's easy for the cold wind to enter your body, Aunt Guan, please keep warm."

Aunt Lin raised the corner of her mouth. Is this eldest young lady really stupid or just pretending to be confused? Can't she see that Aunt Guan is not sick at all?

If I really fell ill, I wouldn't be able to stand here.

"Yes, I'll remember it." Aunt Guan felt ashamed and angry in her heart.

Shen Suian must have said this on purpose. She must be resentful that she sent someone to invite her husband yesterday.

"Our third young lady is used to being domineering at home, and the lady doesn't restrain her and always lets her do what she wants. The eldest young lady should be careful when she sees her in the future and not let her offend her," said Aunt Lin.

"Madam Lin, do you think that our young mistress is not as noble as the third young lady and that we have to avoid her at home?" Mu Jin immediately questioned.

Aunt Lin paused. Seeing that Shen Sui'an did not scold the maid for being disrespectful to her, she felt unhappy and said, "I just want to kindly remind the young lady. Why are you so anxious, girl?"

"In a big family, there are always etiquettes of respect and inferiority. I am the eldest sister-in-law, and there is no reason for the eldest sister-in-law to avoid the younger sister-in-law." Shen Sui'an smiled.

"Did Aunt Lin work in the palace before?"

Aunt Lin raised her chin and said, "Yes, I am the head maidservant beside Concubine Yao."

Shen Sui'an's snow-white face was filled with a gentle smile, "Then Aunt Lin really doesn't understand. Being a master is different from being a servant. You have to adapt to your current identity."

"..." The smile on Aunt Lin's face could no longer be maintained in an instant.

Is Shen Sui'an mocking her for being born a slave?

Or is he warning her not to curry favor with others?

Aunt Lin couldn't figure out what Shen Sui'an meant for a moment.

"Yes, Madam, I will keep it in mind." Aunt Lin replied with gritted teeth.

Shen Sui'an would not explain it to her clearly, "If there is nothing else, you can all go back."

Aunt Guan stared outside the door. She thought she could meet Lu Yuan in the main courtyard, but she didn't expect Shen Suian to send them away so quickly.

It was obvious that she didn't want Lu Yuan to see her.

Aunt Lin stood up slowly and charmingly, "Madam, I will take my leave now."

"I'll take my leave." Aunt Guan was reluctant to leave.

As soon as the two of them walked out of Danbo Courtyard, a tall and slender figure walked towards them in the sunlight.

Lu Yuan was wearing a dark brocade flying fish suit, and his posture was straight, which made him look even more handsome and attractive.

However, his face was gloomy and his eyes were deep and cold at this moment, and he did not notice the two concubines standing by the main courtyard door.

Aunt Guan's eyes were full of tenderness, and her love was almost overflowing.

"My dear..." she called softly and affectionately.

Lu Yuan just glanced at them lightly and walked into the yard without any further delay.

Aunt Guan's tenderness turned into resentment.

"It seems that our commander-in-chief only has eyes for the eldest young lady now." Aunt Lin chuckled and looked at Aunt Guan's eyes that were about to shed tears with some sarcasm.

"I am different from you." Aunt Guan bit her lip and argued.

Aunt Lin sneered, "We are all concubines, what's the difference? Do you still want to compare yourself with the young mistress inside?"

Aunt Guan clenched the silk handkerchief in her hand. She lost to the young mistress because her family background was not as good as hers. However, she and Lu Yuan had known each other for a long time, and the affection between them was not comparable to that of Shen Sui'an.

Her brother was Lu Yuan's colleague and died saving Lu Yuan. It is impossible for Lu Yuan to treat her badly in his life.

As for Aunt Lin, she was just a palace maid who served men with her beauty and was given to Lu Yuan as a plaything. She was even more incomparable to her.

"It's just a temporary novelty." Aunt Guan looked back at the main courtyard, then returned to her own courtyard with red eyes.

Shen Sui'an, who was in the room, actually didn't expect Lu Yuan to come back so early today.

As soon as she lay down on the couch, a black shadow flashed before her eyes and Lu Yuan appeared in front of her.

Looking at her husband with a stern face, she asked with a gentle smile, "What's wrong, husband?"

"Are you okay?" Lu Yuan sat down beside her and reached out to hold her tender little hand.

"The court doctor said I was too frightened." Shen Sui'an kept smiling.

Lu Yuan's eyes burned darkly, and as he looked at her rosy little face, his expression relaxed, "Since the court doctor said you were frightened, then that's it."

Shen Sui'an raised her eyebrows, "My husband's words seem to be questioning me. I was obviously frightened. The third lady wanted to snatch my cloak, and the old lady even blamed me for driving away the maid she sent."

"Madam seems to have become less courageous after marrying me." Lu Yuan put his arms around her waist and lifted her up to sit on his lap.

"When Madam slapped Lu Heng in the face, she seemed quite courageous."

Shen Sui'an's face was hot: "..."

He actually saw that scene.

Lu Yuan laughed muffledly and reached out to stroke her cheek.

"My husband, don't you blame me for talking back to my elders?" Shen Suian asked in a low voice.

"You did nothing wrong, it doesn't count as a retort." Lu Yuan's voice was low and hoarse, his fingers already resting on her collarbone.

Shen Sui'an felt a tingling sensation on her back, and she glared at him. It was broad daylight, what did he want to do?

"Are you hurt anywhere today?" Lu Yuan asked.

"No, Lu Yan just snatched my cloak. I fell down on purpose." Shen Suian tried her best to back away. He surrounded her like a furnace, and her body became hot as well.

"Really? Let me see." Lu Yuan lowered his head and kissed her cheek lightly.

The maid outside the house lowered her head, closed the door, and sent away all the maids in the courtyard.

Shen Suian couldn't stop him at all. After a while, she gave up struggling and allowed him to examine her skin inch by inch.

He was shaken so hard that his whole body fell apart, and he didn't even dare to whimper.

Is the commander so idle?

Isn’t it said that Lu Yuan is often away from home for ten days or half a month?

cheated!
