Chapter 172 Face
"This matter must not be made public in the mansion. I will go and handle it and send the Marquis back to his room to sober up."
"Don't alarm the old lady about what happened today, so as not to make her worried."
Qin Shuyu put down what he was doing and started to clean up the mess Xie Yuchuan had made outside.
Ever since Shen Wei left the house, the old lady handed over the power to herself.
Not only was she busy with Aunt Man's affairs, she also had to manage the entire Marquis's Mansion, and by the way, she also remembered to care about and inquire about Xie Yuchuan's situation.
After Xie Yuchuan sobered up, he learned that Qin Shuyu had done a lot to keep it a secret from his mother, and she even personally made sobering soup for him. The servants in the mansion kept silent about it, and the inner house was kept in perfect order.
Thinking of my indifference towards her during this period.
Thinking back to Shen Wei's coldness and ruthlessness, he showed no mercy to him at all. The servant even said that Shen Wei knocked him unconscious with a palm strike.
In contrast.
Xie Yuchuan was angry and upset, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty towards Qin Shuyu, but he was more relieved.
Qin Shuyu happened to come to ask the servants about his situation, so Xie Yuchuan asked Qin Shuyu to come in and talk.
Seeing Qin Shuyu sitting obediently on the low stool, Xie Yuchuan took the initiative to break the ice: "Well, I'm sorry for your worrying about the Marquis' Mansion these days."
The curve of Qin Shuyu's mouth looked a little sarcastic, but it quickly disappeared.
She replied calmly:
"Since I am the wife of the Xie family, I will naturally take care of the household affairs for you."
"Your Majesty, you don't have to thank me. This is my job."
Xie Yuchuan stared at Qin Shuyu without blinking. Seeing that there was no jealousy on her face, Xie Yuchuan felt more tender in his heart. He reached out to hold Qin Shuyu's hand and said gently:
"Shuyu, with a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for?"
"I have neglected you during this period. You won't blame me, right? You are the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, and no one can change that."
"Although I still like Shen Wei in my heart, I still respect you and honor you."
"The last time I left the mansion, it's over. I understand your thoughts, but Shuyu, women should not be jealous. As a wife, you should accept concubines for your husband. Weiwei is my woman, Xie Yuchuan. I hope you can tolerate her."
"The Veil will come back eventually..."
Qin Shuyu resisted the urge to pull her hand out of Xie Yuchuan's.
Her love for Xie Yuchuan, the filter of her youth, had long been consumed by the disputes of this period!
Now that he was treated coldly by Shen Wei and was tenderly cared for by her, he suddenly found himself fine? He even held her hand. She couldn't tell how disgusted she was.
But Qin Shuyu didn't get angry in the end. She just couldn't help but sneer in her heart when she heard Xie Yuchuan's words.
Why didn't she realize before that Xie Yuchuan was so confident?
He actually thought that Shen Wei would come back. As long as he took care of the household affairs, used some tricks or coaxed her, and gave her the position of a co-wife, Shen Wei would come back?
Is he really unable to see the reality clearly, or is he forcibly deceiving himself because he cannot accept Shen Wei's departure? ?
Qin Shuyu pulled out a sarcastic smile, but quickly hid it.
At the same time, he looked up at Xie Yuchuan and said considerately and gently:
"My Lord, I understand. I just envy Miss Shen a little. She can be loved by you wholeheartedly, but I can't."
"But no matter what, we are husband and wife, and my heart is always with you."
"I can understand you, Lord, but those people outside who are watching the show cannot understand. There are so many spies outside our mansion. Excuse me for saying this, Lord, you still have to consider the face of the mansion."
