Chapter 264: It's no use leaving the quiet place and coming back
Across the street from the carriage.
The coachman was standing against the shaft, holding the whip.
Aoba was also standing next to the carriage.
Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang had already fallen asleep in the carriage.
Qiu Gui dodged the pedestrians on the street and ran to the other side of the road. She grabbed the coachman with one hand and Qing Ye with the other. "Hurry, follow me in... Help the lady out. She has fainted!"
The servant and Qingye were both shocked when they heard this.
The servant and Qingye just watched Qiugui help the lady into the silver shop. As for what happened inside the silver shop after the lady entered, they had no idea.
Now that they heard that the lady had fainted inside, the two of them did not bother to ask any more questions and followed Qiu Gui quickly across the street and ran into the jewelry store.
As soon as he entered the silver shop, he saw several officials inside looking at his wife who was lying on the ground leisurely.
At a table inside, an official was sitting there quietly drinking tea.
The servant and Qingye followed Qiugui and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the officials inside.
Without daring to say anything more, Qingye and Qiugui worked together to pull Yin up from the ground, asked the servant to carry Yin on his back, and quickly walked out of the jewelry store.
Several people came to the carriage and took a lot of effort to drag Yin onto the carriage.
As the carriage shook, Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang also woke up.
When the two men opened their sleepy eyes, they saw their mother lying unconscious, being dragged into a carriage by several servants.
Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang were startled and started to curse Qingye and Qiugui, "What are you doing, you dogs?
What happened to my mother? Why did you drag her onto the carriage like this?"
Qiu Gui was the only one who had accompanied Yin into the silver shop just now, so Qiu Gui had no choice but to answer, "Just now...just now Madam was inside...being...being questioned by the adults of Shuntian Prefecture, and then...then...the Madam fainted.
The servants…the servants then brought the Madam out…brought her out.”
"what?
An official from Shuntian Prefecture actually asked my mother questions so many times that she fainted?
What did he ask?
Humph! Tell my dad when I get back that I won’t let them off!”
After hearing this, Qiu Gui did not argue at all, but urged the servant to get on the carriage and go back to the Marquis' Mansion.
Qiu Gui felt that the Marquis' Mansion... was about to be in chaos again, maybe even more chaotic than this morning!
When the carriage was about to reach the Marquis Qinxing's mansion, Yin was awakened by the shaking.
She found herself half lying on the floor of the carriage, with her upper body resting on Qiu Gui's legs.
The carriage was dark.
Yin woke up but didn't make a sound. She opened her eyes in the darkness, thinking about what happened in the silver shop just now, and tears of humiliation and fear could no longer be controlled and flowed down.
Yin felt like there was a huge mountain in front of her that she couldn't climb over!
Yin felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff where strong winds were blowing. She might slip and fall down at any time and be smashed to pieces!
She has achieved her wish and become the wife of Marquis Qinxing, hasn't she?
Why does she have to face the situation she is in now?
She must be a noble lady who possesses countless wealth, has the glory that everyone envies, and enjoys wealth and splendor!
Moreover, she has already done it!
why?
Why was it all lost in the blink of an eye?
Yin closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and used all her strength to slowly calm herself down.
Now, her only hope is Leng Xian.
Yin thought that she was too impulsive in the morning and couldn't do that again!
She couldn't let Leng Xian get even more annoyed with her. If Leng Xian wanted her to continue to treat her the same way as before, she had to treat her the same way as before, otherwise she would...
Yin didn't dare to think about it anymore...
At this moment, Leng Xian, who was lying in Zhongshun's small room waiting for dawn, thought about Liu Da who had not returned, about the imperial decree from eunuch Xiao Dongzi today, and about himself who was now penniless...
Thinking of Yin and her two children who had left her and returned to her parents' home at this time, she felt panic, helplessness, sadness, bitterness, sorrow, and regret...
Leng Xian couldn't tell what he was feeling!
There is a phrase called "mixed feelings", but at this moment Leng Xian felt more than just five feelings!
Leng Xian felt a sore back and waist as he lay on the hard bed.
He moved his body slightly, thinking that it would be better to fall asleep as soon as possible.
At least when I fall asleep, I don’t have to think about these bad things in front of me.
Let’s wait until dawn to talk about everything!
Just as Leng Xian closed his eyes and felt drowsy, he suddenly heard Zhongshun outside reporting: "My Lord, are you asleep?
Madam, the second young lady and the young master are back!"
When Leng Xian heard that it was Yin who came back with the two children, he did not feel the slightest bit of concern.
He just curled his lips coldly.
Leng Xian thought to himself: Yin was angry with me, so she abandoned me and returned to her parents' home with her two children.
That stupid woman, she could do such a stupid thing!
Ha! It would be nice for her to return to her parents' home with a lot of gold and silver, and to support the Marquis of Qinxing's mansion.
And now at this very moment, the Marquis' Mansion has encountered difficulties, and that stupid woman Yin is actually following the example of others and going back to her parents' home... Humph... stupid!
Thinking of this, Leng Xian snorted coldly and said nothing.
They can leave when they want and come back when they want. It is more peaceful when they leave, and it is useless to come back.
He didn't want to bother with the mother and her two daughters now. He just wanted to fall asleep quickly so that he wouldn't be bothered by them.
He thought so, but then he heard Zhongshun outside say, "My Lord, my Lord, my Lady...my Lady fainted, she was...she was carried in by Xiao Luozi.
The people who followed her said... that the Madam went to the shops in our mansion, and it seemed... something happened in the shops."
When Leng Xian heard Zhongshun mention the shop, he could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, and could no longer lie down.
Leng Xian thought to himself: Not good!
What happened in that shop that could cause Yin to faint?
Leng Xian turned his head to look outside and asked, "Where are they?"
Zhongshun quickly replied, "Madam and the others... they will be here soon."
