Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild - Chapter 242

Chapter 242: Know How to Treat a Beauty

It was unknown what Constable Ji said to everyone. When the duo walked out of the study room, the guards looked at them ambiguously.

Especially when they saw Lu Sheng’s slightly swollen lips, everyone’s eyes lit up.

“Lord, Miss Lu, I wish the both of you a blissful marriage and have children soon!”

A guard brought two cooked eggs out of nowhere and distributed one to each of them. Then, he smiled and blessed them.

Chu Sihan looked at the egg in his hand and his face darkened.

“Where’s Constable Ji?” he asked coldly.

The guard said, “Oh, Constable Ji’s mother’s sister’s daughter’s mother-in-law lost a pig. He brought his men to help find it.”

Chu Sihan was speechless.

Couldn’t he just say that someone had lost a pig and he went to find it for them?

Lu Sheng lowered her eyes and giggled.

“Lord, you…”

The guard looked at Chu Sihan, then at Lu Sheng. Then, he winked at Chu Sihan and said ambiguously, “Take it easy. She’s so tender and delicate. You have to know how to treat a beauty.”

Lu Sheng subconsciously covered her mouth, and the redness on her cheeks returned.

Chu Sihan pulled her behind him and said to the guard in a deep voice, “It seems like you don’t want this mouth of yours anymore.”

“No, Lord!”

The guards covered their mouths and shook their heads. The guards at the side immediately laughed.

Chu Sihan glanced over coldly and the laughter stopped.

“Ah, I still have some matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first.”

“I still have to help Constable Ji find the pigs. I’ll get going first.”

“Me too.”

…

Instantly, everyone looked for an excuse to escape.

Lu Sheng stuck her head out carefully from behind Chu Sihan. When she saw that no one was around, she heaved a sigh of relief.

She finally understood what Nanny Yao meant.

Did they think that something happened between her and Chu Sihan?

Sigh, Constable Ji was really good at spouting nonsense.

“Where do you want to go?”

Chu Sihan tilted his head and asked her.

She pursed her lips and shook her head. “I don’t want to go anywhere. I’m going back to take a nap.”

Chu Sihan nodded. “I’ll send you off.”

“Okay.”

When the two of them entered the courtyard, they saw Nanny Yao sweeping the snow under the roof.

“Lord, Miss Lu.”

She bowed slightly. When her gaze landed on Lu Sheng’s lips, she immediately smiled.

“The pastries are good.”

When he passed by Nanny Yao, Chu Sihan praised her.

Lu Sheng slipped and almost fell.

Hearing that she was praised, Nanny Yao smiled so much that there were a few more wrinkles in her eyes. “As long as Lord and Miss Lu like them.”

Lu Sheng suddenly turned around and looked at Chu Sihan. “Lord, I’m here. You can go back first.”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly and watched her enter the house and close the door. Then, he nodded at Nanny Yao and strode away.

A few days later, at Dongfang Mansion.

Ever since the previous incident, Dongfang Yuechu removed all of Second Aunt’s men.

Other than some trusted elders, the rest were mostly newbies.

After the misunderstanding was cleared, Mdm Zhou went to the ancestral temple to punish herself by kneeling for three days. Her attitude towards Dongfang Yuechu had also improved a lot.

In the past, she would pretend not to see her when they met occasionally. Now, when they meet, she would nod at Dongfang Yuechu.

She even told Old Master Dongfang that she dreamed of Dongfang Riming. He was tall and handsome and said that he would be her son again.

Old Master Dongfang did not believe in these in the past, but after Dongfang Yuechu was cursed, he believed them too.

After Mdm Zhou left the ancestral temple, he asked her to move back to his courtyard.

After all, when Dongfang Yuechu married into the capital, there would only be Mdm Zhou left in this huge Dongfang Mansion who knew how to manage the internal affairs.
