Mu Fengqie felt relieved and didn't intend to stay here any longer. Li Biquan had really shot herself in the foot. This way, Li Biquan couldn't openly covet Jing Xinche anymore.
She turned around to leave, but before she could step out of the room, Li Biquan's shrill voice came, "Mu Fengqie, it must be you, you bitch, who framed me!"
Mu Fengqie twitched the corner of her mouth. She didn't want to argue with Li Biquan, but she wasn't going to be a coward and let others bully her.
She gave Li Biquan a disdainful look and said coldly, "Me frame you? Did I call these people here? Did I tell you to have an affair here? Even my presence here was because someone told me that my husband was in trouble. Otherwise, do you think I would have just happened to be here and seen your dirty deeds?"
Mu Fengqie was always sharp - tongued. Just a few words left Li Biquan speechless. The on - lookers also pointed fingers at Li Biquan. Seeing this, Mu Fengqie felt secretly delighted.
Li Biquan had caused her a lot of trouble, both openly and secretly. Now, Li Biquan probably regretted it deeply. She had tried to gain something but had only lost more. She was really a fool.
Mu Fengqie returned home happily with a big smile on her face. There had been no good news for days, and this incident was enough to amuse her for half a month.
When she got home, Mu Fengqie smelled a delicious aroma in the yard. She ran in quickly and saw the familiar figure as expected.
"Why did you take so long? The food is ready. Come and eat quickly," Jing Xinche said softly.
A skeptical look appeared on Mu Fengqie's face, and her eyes kept blinking. "How do you know where I went?"
Jing Xinche smiled slightly. "I knew. I let you go and watch the fun, so I didn't stop you."
Hearing this, Mu Fengqie realized Jing Xinche's scheme. She had thought he was just a simple and dull person, but it turned out he was quite scheming. This incident must have been his doing.
Mu Fengqie put her hands on her hips, puffed out her cheeks pretending to be coquettish, and said in a sarcastic tone, "You made me worry for nothing. I thought you had suffered a relapse of your poison outside. If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have worried about you!"
She had been so scared that her heart was about to jump out, but he, the person involved, seemed so calm. It really made Mu Fengqie angry.
Jing Xinche stepped forward, put his arms around Mu Fengqie's waist, and said seriously, "Wife, I want to be with you for a lifetime. You're the only woman for me in this life."
Then he turned Mu Fengqie around to face him, leaned down and lowered his eyes. It seemed that his thin lips were about to touch Mu Fengqie's cherry - like lips.
He had never been close to women before and had never given his heart to any woman. From beginning to end, only Mu Fengqie could make him care.
Mu Fengqie's face blushed instantly. She could even clearly hear the chaotic beating of her heart. She quickly escaped from Jing Xinche's embrace and felt very uncomfortable.
After two lifetimes, it was the first time she had such close contact with a man. She couldn't adapt to this kind of close - range contact for a while. Although she knew Jing Xinche was a good man worth relying on, it would take some time for her to accept him.
"Um... give me some more time. I'm a bit hungry. How about we eat first?"
After saying that, Mu Fengqie busied herself. There was a bit of disappointment in Jing Xinche's eyes, but he was still happy in his heart. At least Mu Fengqie would worry about him. He would wait until the day when she was willing.
As time passed, Mu Fengqie's morning sickness got better. Maybe because life was getting better, she obviously felt that her weak body had become stronger.
She had been worried that her weak body might not be able to bear a child, but it seemed that the baby in her belly was a lucky one.
In the evening, Mu Fengqie decided to go out for a walk to digest. Tomorrow was the Mid - Autumn Festival. The town had prepared a lot of lanterns for the festival, and there was already a festive atmosphere today. Although it was already night, the town was still brightly lit, just like daytime. There were also many people enjoying the night view, and it was very lively.
Since moving to the town, Mu Fengqie had felt a bit lonely. She only saw Mu Xingrou and Mu Rendong from time to time, but at least it was much quieter, and no more accidents had happened.
Mu Fengqie pulled Jing Xinche out of the house. The two strolled in the alleys of the town. Looking at the lanterns like blooming flowers, Mu Fengqie felt refreshed.
In the past, living in the bustling city, Mu Fengqie had never thought much of the colorful city life. She had lived a monotonous and boring life with a fixed routine.
But here, Mu Fengqie seemed to have found a sense of home and the meaning of life.
"The Young Master Yuan I told you about last time sent a hundred taels of silver today. How about using this money to get you an easy official position?"
Mu Fengqie was still scared when she thought about what had happened today. Fortunately, it was just Li Biquan's scheme and he had only been drugged. If he had been poisoned again today, Jing Xinche might have been in great danger.
Thinking of this, Mu Fengqie felt it was very dangerous. Besides, hunting was very tiring. She didn't know how long the poison in Jing Xinche's body could be controlled, so she wanted to get him an easy official position.
After all, Jing Xinche seemed to be a talented person in his conversations. Maybe he would have a good development in the officialdom in the future.
However, to Mu Fengqie's surprise, Jing Xinche didn't look as happy as she had expected. Instead, he looked a bit confused. "Wife, I can't do this. I can't tell you the reason for now. I'll tell you everything when the time is right."
Mu Fengqie knew that Jing Xinche must have some difficulties. Since that was the case, she didn't force him. This plain life was also good.
The town was brightly lit at night, and there were countless people coming and going. Although it was different from the tranquility of the village, it had its own unique charm.
"Let's go and have a look in front. See if there's any food. I want to eat some sour fruits. I wonder if there's any for sale."
Mu Fengqie's belly was still flat. Recently, she had been craving sour food. She felt a bit hungry again even though she had just finished dinner.
Jing Xinche pulled Mu Fengqie forward. As they walked, they were attracted by the noisy voices in front. Mu Fengqie pulled Jing Xinche to check it out and managed to squeeze into the crowd with difficulty.
