The Lady's Sickly Husband

Chapter 66: A Pair of Disgusting People

Translator: Antonia

Time seemed to halt for that moment.

Touching her face to disguise something, Mo Qianxue hesitated in fluster, having no idea of whether to accept if or kick him off bed as a revenge if he kissed her.

However, in the silence, Ning Shaoqing took back his hand.

Then he helped her tucked the quilts, turning around and, with steady sound of breath, falling asleep in a while.

Mo Qianxue’s eyes shone with beams of rage.

Was this man a wood? Shit. She had planned to kick him off bed, but now there wasn’t a chance for her to act proud. How could she kick him now? This man had been very polite since last time he kissed her.

Every time they were in bed, he wouldn’t move at all and fell asleep like an old monk.

Was it because that she lacked temptation? Mo Qianxue couldn’t help rubbing her breasts and felt depressed. She did have something there. Why could this person remain a gentleman?

Probably...it was because of the cold poison in his body was affecting the key part? It shouldn’t be! Last time, she had gotten a chance to feel the great size of it.

She kind of regretted for having bought a new quilt for him.

Turning and tossing for long, she finally managed to fall asleep.

However, what she wasn’t aware of was Ning Shaoqing’s glowing gazing eyes, though he had turned his back to her and maintained smooth breath.

The next evening, the Wang village was in great joy.

Almost all the people who had a say showed up and brought gift-money to Mo Qianxue for the celebration of her new restaurant to be open soon.

Although the gift-money wasn’t too much and some even just gave her a piece of red cloth, Mo Qianxue was still overjoyed.

She didn’t value much on the amount of the money, but their willingness to bring her gifts proved the fact that she had gained her position in the village.

All over the front yard placed lots of tables, and even the kitchen and living hall were occupied. The village head presided over the party, giving a speech and words of congratulations. Ning Shaoqing, of course, sat in the main chair.

Mo Qianxue had wanted to give them a hand in the kitchen, yet she was pressed into her chair by the group of women including sister Fang, Chunyan and Juniang until she promised not to come to the kitchen. Sister Fang still didn’t believe her and let the daughters Nizi and Yaya waited by her.

Nizi gave her a massage in the shoulder with her little hands while Yaya sat on her thighs and begged for stories. Looking at the two girls, one younger and one elder, Mo Qianxue felt so satisfied.

In the future, she would have her own nice daughters too.

Thinking about children, Mo Qianxue couldn’t help looking to Ning Shaoqng and discovered that he was surrounded by many school boys, a picture Mo Qianxue instantly felt sweet.

She lowered her head, pondering whether to have sons or daughters when she suddenly sensed a heated beam shooting at her, looked up, and it was Ning Shaoqing gazing at her.

There seemed to be a lake in his eyes, smiling.

Mo Qianxue gave him a playful stare, and Ning Shaoqing laughed...

*

The yard was in joy and excitement, but people there had their own thoughts.

The village head and elders were discussing the selection of children from which family to learn root-sculpture craftsmanship with Mo Qainxue.

Elder Wanger had decided not to go out forever, so elder Wangsan now was the new village elder. His son was favored by Mo Qainxue, so the other elders were all being very nice to him.

Yet, though on the surface they were polite, in secrecy they all tried to recommend their own nephews to Mo Qianxue.

Elder Li, “My son Shikai is not too young, but he’s very smart.”

Elder Fang, “Stop it. He’s just a rogue. Now he’s a cripple who can barely walk. Don’t try to...”

The two started to fight again.

*

At the corner of the kitchen, sister Fang and Guihua were whispering to each other.

“I must be wrong last time. Mr. and Mrs. Ning can’t have had sex. We should help them.”

“How?”

“I have a recipe for men and women to nourish their functions. It can...and it’s not harmful.”

“Will it really work?”

“Of course. It helps give birth to sons. My husband and I took it back then...”

“Great. It’s been fourth months since Mrs. Ning got married, and they still didn’t have sex. It shouldn’t be happening. Mr. Ning is in poor health, so it’d be better for her to have a son to depend on.”

“Right. We must help her...”

*

In a small corner of the yard, aunt Fang and Taoer were discussing in a low voice.

“Mom, is it reliable?”

“It must be reliable this time. Don’t worry. This is our special family recipe. Your sister-in-law will personally give the soup to Mr. Ning. She thinks she’s clever. She will never expect of being taken advantage of us. Hem!”

“I’m still a little afraid.”

“Of what? This is the clothes Mrs. Ning wore. Later you put it on you and Mr. Ning will mistake you as her. Naturally, he won’t think too much.”

Fang Taoer still hesitated. That day her soul had almost been beaten out by Ning Shaoqing.

“After you succeed, you’ll be his legal wife, and she is the concubine who can never surpass you. Even if in equal positions, you don’t have to be afraid of her if you can give birth to a son first. By then, all the property belongs to you.”

“Look at the big house. There is a living hall, wing rooms, and I heard there is a study room too...later, you just wait in the wing room. I’ve arranged someone to guide Mr. Ning into it.”

The words made Fang Taoer’s eyes shining.

*

At another corner of the yard, Li Kaishi and aunt Li, his mother, also whispered there.

“Mom, are you sure that you can bring the woman there?”

“Of course. Just wait here. But we need to make it clear now. Once you occupy her body, she can only be a concubine.”

“Relax, mom. By then, she’ll have to accept it. Do you think Mr. Ning will want a second-hand woman? She can only be a concubine or be thrown into the river.”

“Then I’ll be relieved.”

“Mom, you’re the best. Wait until we make it, you’ll enjoy her making money for you.”

“Later, you wait in the wing room. There will be someone cheating her into the room, and you’ll only need to...”

“I know.”

*

In the dark, a man in black twitched the corner of his mouth. If his master didn’t forbit him to take actions easily, which might scare his lady, he would have already cut up these disgusting people into pieces and throw into the river.

The cuckoo’s voice rang, and Ning Shaoqing stood up to get changed.

The shadow guard reported everything to him.

Ning Shaoqing’s face turned sullen. Remaining silent for a while, he said, “Find a subtle way to let lady be aware. She can deal with it.”

“She already knows a little.”

“Uh?”

“Yaya said hungry, so lady let Nizi took care of Yaya for a while so that she could go to kitchen to get some food. There, she happened to overhear the conversation between Fang’s wife and the widow.”

“And then?” Mo Qianxue would definitely do something after knowing she was being calculated, even if it was of good intention.

“Then lady changed the two bowls of nutritious soup. In fact, I’ve checked the soup, and it’s indeed good for health...”

Ning Shaoqing started at the shadow guard and his expression dropped to the freezing point immediately. Only then did the shadow guard realize what he had said. His words suggested doubt about his master’s ability in that aspect!

He lowered his head. Ning Shaoqing looked to Mo Qianxue who was playing with Yaya, and his eyes were softened by that, “Protect lady in secrecy. Let her do whatever she wants. As long as I’m here, there won’t be a problem!”

He turned away to leave and stopped again, “Besides, for those you shouldn’t worry about, stop thinking.”

The shadow guard had already merged into darkness and wouldn’t become the target of his master’s eye knife.

“The feast starts!”

As sister Fang shouted, the crowd hurried took their seats, and several young wives rushed to the kitchen to help serve dishes.

Sister Fang feared that someone took by mistake the good soup she had prepared and hurriedly got up into the room. She gave sister Guihua a look, then the two held one bowl each, one for Ning Shaoqing and the other for Mo Qianxue.

Mo Qianxue drank it with a smile while Ning Shaoqing drank it up too.

Sister Fang displayed a big smile immediately after Mo Qianxue drank it. She couldn’t know that the soup had already be changed by Mo Qianxue.

When drinking the soup, Mo Qianxue stole a glance at Wang Tiansong who was nodding at her, so she held her forehead and walked into the inner room, pretending to be in a daze.

“Did what I told you?”

“Rest assured. Everything is good.” Wang Tiansong walked past Mo Qianxue with a relaxed face.

After the construction of the restaurant was finished, Wang Tiansong had been appointed to take charge of the management of root sculpture, so now he respected Mrs. Ning more.

Besides, what Mrs. Ning told him to do this time was such a good approach to vent their spleen. How could he make a mistake?

Li Kaishi had flirted to Wang Tiansong’s married sister, and every time he met his wife, the disgusting lascivious way he looked at her made Wang Tiansong’s fists itchy. Only because of elder Wanger and his father, he chose not to beat him up.

As for Fang Taoer, that was a bitch who had come to harass him before he got married. A real shameless bitch.

To make a couple of these two dirty people was to remove rats for the entire village. He could enjoy a show and do a good thing for the village at the same time. Why not?

A smile touched on Ning Shaoqing’s lips when he saw Mo Qianxue went to the inner room and left the feast too.

After a few rounds of toasts, some found that the host and hostess weren’t present, but they didn’t mind.

Mr. Ning was in poor health. It was reasonable that he felt dizzy after some wine.

Of course, Mrs. Ning had to accompany and took care of him.

The front yard didn’t cool down because they left but instead became more clamoring.

When Mr. Ning was present, they somewhat restrain themselves out of courtesy. Now after drinking much, the men began to have fun, shouting and joking.

Fang Taoer was preparing to sneak into the inner court when her mother pulled her, “The place changed. Mr. Ning went to the wrong room. Just now I heard Wang Tiansong said that he went to the wing room in the outer yard. Hurry. Don’t miss out the opportunity.”

Fang Tao entered the wing room and smelled the fishy smell of tofu. This room had become a warehouse to store bits and pieces. Certainly the smell couldn’t be good.

She frowned and said to herself. Was this cold and damp place suitable for men to stay in? She hesitated whether she should go out when a person sprang over, immediately hugging and kissing her.

“Mr. Ning” was warm from wine. She was happy that finally this time he didn’t push her away. Probably the drug worked this time thanks to mom’s excellent scheme that she was wearing Mrs. Ning’s clothes.

While staying in the heating hug, Fang Taoer herself felt hot too. She didn’t push the person away but hugged back.

Although the place wasn’t nice, as long as it was done, he must give her an answer because her father was one of the village elders.

Outside the room, people enjoyed themselves drinking and chatting while inside the room the dirty thing was happening.

Both the them were so eager that they tore away each other’s clothes... In a moment, they rolled and tossed on the ground... It was late at night and they had drunk a lot.

Aunt Fang anxiously kept watching the time. When she assumed it was about the time, she patted sister Fang next to her and said, “My niece-in-law, just now I saw a person went to the wing room. Couldn’t it be a thieve?”

Sister Fang looked in the direction she was pointing at and hurriedly stood up when she saw there was really noise from the wing room.

That warehouse was in her charge. There mustn’t be any mistake.

It was late winter, so though it wasn’t very late, the sky was totally black. By the faint candlelight in the yard, sister Fang saw—

A couple of man and woman were tumbling...

Was it an affair caught on the spot?

On the first second, she was dumbfounded.

The next second, she made a long shriek, “Ah...”

The next reaction was to slam the door and cursed shameless.

Aunt Fang instead rushed over and pushed the door open before it shut, cursing, “Mr. Ning, I never expect a gentleman like you should do such an immoral thing. How can you bully my daughter?”

Mr. Ning? Her daughter? Sister Fang’s heart plummeted. Done. Did Mr. Ning drink the soup and go to the wrong room? At this moment, sister Fang even wanted to kill herself.

She wanted to disguise the scene, pushing away aunt Fang and trying to shut the door.

Aunt Fang pushed back and dashed in.

Pushing away “Mr. Ning” who was still doing his work on Fang Taoer, turned around to put the prepared clothes on her daughter’s naked body, and began to cry, “Mr. Ning, my daughter is a virgin. Now you must give us an answer about this...”

Aunt Fang called “Mr. Ning” again and again which made sister Fang deadly regretted. What should she do now? What if Mrs. Ning knew this? After being pushed away out of the door by aunt Fang, she had been shedding tears and didn’t dare to look back into the room, out of breath from worry and anxiety.

What to do now? Everyone knew that Fang Taoer was a lazy stupid sticky bitch. As a daughter gotten at an old age and with five elder brothers, she had been a spoiled child who never did any domestic chores.

Mo Qianxue was kind-hearted and as a lucky-wife who still didn’t have sex with Mr. Ning, how could she stand firm in the courtyard...

Aunt Fang shouted so loudly obviously with the aim to make it known to others. Those who were eating and drinking in the yard certainly had heard the noise and began to flood towards the wing room.

“What’s going on? By aunt Fang’s claim, it seems that Mr. Ning slept with Taoer?”

“No way. Mr. Ning is most upright. Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Is it because he is too drunk...”

The crowd moved over as they discussed.

In a short while, there were dozens of people gathering at the door.

Aunt Fang saw “Mr. Ning” quickly got dressed up, covering his face and tumbling outward.

She thought to herself: Mr. Ning was really weak that he couldn’t stand straight after such a moment of love-making? Yet, this was also a good thing if he was this weak because in the future he had listen to her daughter in every aspect.

Without thinking too much, she rushed forward and instantly grabbed “Mr. Ning”, “Mr. Ning, are you trying to escape after all this? No way!”

Aunt Fang was a loud speaker and now she hoped the whole world knew the affair, so of course she roared as loudly as possible.

“Mr. Ning” seemed not hear her roaring.

He didn’t look back either, only covering his face with one hand while the other hand tried to get rid of aunt Fang’s fingers that were grabbing him. All he wanted to do was to leave the scandal site as soon as possible.

At this moment, sister Fang finally woke up from the dizziness and, wiping out the tears, she rushed forward too to help “Mr. Ning” peel off aunt Fang’s hand on him. She hoped that, if lucky, as long as Mr. Ning could run away from the site now and wasn’t caught on the spot, maybe, just maybe that this incident had a good end.

“What are you all doing there?” The village head and elders were also attracted by the scene and walked over.

“Head and elders, please give us justice. My daughter was...by the fake gentleman Mr. Ning...”

A few young lads hurriedly carried candlelight and led the village head over there.

In the crowd there was a sharp-eyed person who saw, by the faint light, clearly through the fingers that covered the face and shouted in surprise, “Oh my heaven, isn’t it Li Kaishi?”

After all, they were fellow villagers that met each other almost every day, so only by a spark of light, they could tell who the person really was.

“Yes! It’s not Mr. Ning!” Another person recognized him too.

“Aunt Fang, are you too old to see clear...” Someone in the crowd laughed.
