Chapter 276 Harmony
"Madam, please don't be sad. The Marquis was just temporarily bewitched by that woman. When he comes to his senses, he will realize that you are the most suitable person to be the mistress of the Marquisate."
Qing'er felt so distressed when she saw the lonely Jiang Xiyu. She struggled for a long time before she found these words of comfort.
Jiang Xiyu could hear Qing'er's concern, so she raised her eyes and smiled at her, "I'm not sad. If we get divorced, we can go back to the General's Mansion. If we get divorced, we will be free. What's wrong with that?"
Seeing Jiang Xiyu's open-minded attitude, Qing'er breathed a sigh of relief and was extremely happy. "That's right. There's nothing good about the Yonglin Marquis's Mansion. It's full of holes and needs you to fill them. The Marquis is just average looking, not even one-tenth as good-looking as the Prince. He's not very good to you and doesn't care about you at all. If Lin Rouyu wants it, just give it to her. We don't care about it."
Jiang Xiyu raised her eyebrows noncommittally, "You're right, a divorce is what I've always wanted. Now that he finally agreed to a divorce, we should be happy."
Jiang Xiyu said as she looked at Qing'er, "Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Go pack your things and sort out my dowry. Take away everything that needs to be taken away. Maybe we can go back to the General's Mansion in the next two days."
Qing'er was so excited by Jiang Xiyu's words, "I'll go and clean it up right away."
The sky was getting darker and darker. Jiang Xiyu had just finished dinner when there was a knock on the door. Qing'er went to open the door and saw it was Ye Zi. After letting her in, Qing'er went out and closed the door.
Jiang Xiyu was stunned when she saw the leaves.
Shuye knelt down and said, "Madam, the Marquis was plotted against by them. My master, Madam, and Lin Rouyu plotted against the Marquis, which is why the Marquis and Lin Rouyu are actually husband and wife. I am guilty of not being able to stop their family's conspiracy."
Jiang Xiyu reached out and helped her up. "You didn't do anything wrong. If they want to plot against you, what can a slave like you do?"
Jiang Xiyu's gentleness made Ye Zi's eyes red. "After I knew that the Marquis had fallen into their trap, I went to find the Marquis's personal guard and asked him to save him, but he told me not to care about anything and even drove me away."
Jiang Xiyu understood something instantly and said with a wry smile, "I'm about to leave Yonglin Marquis Mansion. Are you willing to leave with me?"
Ye Zi nodded excitedly, "Of course I am willing. Madam, please save me from this dire situation. I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life."
Shuye was about to kneel down again, but Jiang Xiyu supported her in time. "Don't get excited. After all, you are Lin Rouyu's. I can only try."
"Mrs. Dorling." The leaf wiped its tears and felt very happy.
The fact that there is still someone in this world who cares about her is enough to make her happy.
Regardless of whether the matter succeeds or not, she will be grateful to the lady for the rest of her life.
Ye Zi stayed in Jiang Xiyu's house for a short while before running back.
As soon as Lin Rouyu saw her, she asked impatiently, "Why did you take so long? Did you find out everything?"
Shu Ye had the chance to go out because he told Lin Rouyu that he wanted to find out whether Xu Rui had returned.
Shuye immediately lowered his brows and reported, "The Marquis hasn't returned yet. It seems they are waiting for him over there too."
Lin Rouyu snorted complacently after hearing this, "She also wanted to wait for Brother Rui, but now Brother Rui no longer has her in his eyes. Even if Brother Rui comes back, he won't look for her."
Thinking that she was already Xu Rui's woman, Lin Rouyu felt proud.
What’s the point of Jiang Xiyu being the wife of Marquis Yonglin? Brother Rui is already hers now, and she, Jiang Xiyu, will soon be the wife of Marquis Yonglin.
There is no place for Jiang Xiyu in the Yonglin Marquis Mansion anymore.
That night, Lin Rouyu waited for Xu Rui all night, and Jiang Xiyu slept very well and slept until dawn.
"boom."
Jiang Xiyu, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the sound outside the door. She put on her clothes and got up quickly. She saw a figure staggering in from outside and pushed Qing'er, who was lighting the lamp, to the ground, "Get out."
Qing'er fell to the ground and finally saw who it was. "My Lord?"
Jiang Xiyu also saw clearly that it was Xu Rui, and the strong smell of alcohol also made Jiang Xiyu clearly understand that Xu Rui was drunk.
Jiang Xiyu was worried that Qing'er would be hurt by Xu Rui.
Xu Rui was obviously drunk, and his men were not very serious. He probably didn't know what he was doing.
"Qing'er, go out first." Jiang Xiyu winked at Qing'er.
"But..." Qing'er saw that Xu Rui was not in good condition and didn't dare to go out.
Jiang Xiyu also knew that Qing'er was worried about her, so she said softly, "Go out and wait outside first. I'll call you if anything happens."
Since Jiang Xiyu said so, Qing'er had no choice but to walk out, looking back every few steps.
Once outside, Qing'er didn't dare close the door tightly, for fear that there might be some noise inside and she wouldn't be able to hear the young lady calling her.
So Qing'er left the door ajar and stood guard at the door.
Qing'er closed the door, and the room became even darker.
Jiang Xiyu looked at Xu Rui standing in the dark, feeling uneasy. "It's so dark, can you light a lamp?"
Xu Rui burped, stood there without moving, and completely ignored Jiang Xiyu.
Jiang Xiyu had no choice but to get out of bed and light the lamp herself.
But as soon as she got out of bed, Xu Rui came over.
Jiang Xiyu wanted to light the lamp, but was stopped by Xu Rui.
When Jiang Xiyu goes left, Xu Rui goes left; when Jiang Xiyu goes right, Xu Rui goes right.
After trying several times but still unable to get through, Jiang Xiyu became completely angry and glared at Xu Rui, "What on earth do you want to do in the middle of the night?"
Xu Rui snorted coldly, then suddenly laughed softly, "Do you often have trysts with him late at night?"
His drunken words made Jiang Xiyu frown. She stared at him coldly, "What kind of answer do you want to hear? Yes, I have a tryst with him every night, and we..."
"Shut up." Xu Rui suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something. He stretched out his hand and pinched Jiang Xiyu's neck, not wanting her to continue talking. "Stop talking. I don't want to hear anything. I don't want to hear about your affairs."
Xu Rui yelled hysterically, and Qing'er outside was frightened, but Jiang Xiyu didn't call her, so she didn't dare to come in.
I can only pray that the Marquis will wake up quickly and leave soon.
Jiang Xiyu was being pinched by Xu Rui, the veins on his hands bulged and it looked like he was trying very hard, but Jiang Xiyu knew that he was not, or maybe he was just trying to use force on himself.
Jiang Xiyu stretched out her hand to pull his hand away, and after a long pause, she spoke, "I'll go light the lamp."
Jiang Xiyu had just taken a step towards the table when Xu Rui hugged her from behind.
Jiang Xiyu's body suddenly stiffened, and she subconsciously wanted to pull his hand away, but he held her very tightly.
"Don't turn on the light." Xu Rui buried his head in her back and said almost pleadingly, "I don't want to see the light. I'm afraid that if there is light, I will lose you. I don't want to lose you."
