Sorry, My Wife Has a Hole in Her Brain Chapter 8
Silence was the main theme of this carriage. After Su Wenqing's failed attempt to make up a story to ask for forgiveness, the two had nothing to say to each other.
In fact, it was not that Su Wenqing did not want to seize
such a good opportunity, but she knew that after the last incident in the
ancestral hall, no matter how much she explained to Su Jinsheng, it would be
useless. No matter how touching her words were, Su Jinsheng only needed one
sentence - how did you explain the incident in the ancestral hall last time? It
was enough to make her speechless and kill her with one move...
The carriage jolted slowly forward, and after another two
hours, the Su family's entourage finally arrived at the foot of Beishan
Mountain. As soon as the carriage stopped, Su Wenqing hurriedly pulled open the
curtain and jumped out.
When Su Wenqing first sat in the carriage, she was indeed
very excited. She found both the carriage and the scenery outside new and
exciting. But after being shaken for three and a half hours, all the excitement
was gone.
Su Wenqing felt like she was falling apart. She staggered
two steps after landing before she could stand firm. She twisted her waist and
rubbed her back with her backhand. In fact, if there weren't so many unfamiliar
servants guarding her, she would have wanted to rub her buttocks the most...
Less than three minutes after the carriage stopped, Jin
Wangfei came over with a group of followers, smiling like flowers. She took Zhao
Yiniang's hand warmly and said, "Why did you only come now? You kept me
waiting for a long time."
Su Wenqing followed behind Zhao Yiniang and sighed silently.
In the novel, Jin Wangfei always looked down on Zhao Yiniang because she was a
concubine. She even felt contemptuous of her. Zhao Yiniang also had many
complaints about Jin Wangfei because she was arrogant and stingy. So, who are
this pair of close friends in front of her who seem to have become close
friends after not seeing each other for a long time?
They are indeed veteran house-fighting geeks. If their
acting skills were to be nominated for an award, all the best actress and best
actor titles would be swept out by them.
Zhao Yiniang apologized with a smile: "The third girl
has just recovered from a long illness. I am worried that if we go too fast,
she will not be able to bear it. I am sorry to have troubled you to wait for so
long."
??? It's me again???
Su Wenqing suddenly took the blame and could only step
forward, bow and apologize.
Jin Wangfei was very satisfied with this attitude. After Su
Wenqing finished her greetings, she pulled Su Wenqing over affectionately and
said, "We were really scared when you fell into the water at the old
lady's birthday banquet last time. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. Are
you feeling unwell now?"
Su Wenqing lowered his head and replied respectfully,
"Thank you for your concern, Wangfei. I am fine now."
Jin Wangfei gently patted Su Wenqing's hand and said,
"I'm glad you're okay. But I see that you look better than before you fell
into the water. You were beautiful before, but you always looked like a sick
beauty. Now it's different. It seems that Physician Liu's medical skills are
really superb. I have to call him over some other day to take care of my body."
Su Wenqing lowered her eyebrows and showed a trace of
embarrassment, then returned the favor by spewing a bunch of rainbow farts to
flatter Jin Wangfei, saying things like "you are so beautiful that fishes
can sink to the depths, geese can fall, the moon can hide and flowers can
blush", and "people who don't know you would think you are only
eighteen years old..." Jin Wangfei was so flattered that she covered her
lips with her silk scarf and smiled from ear to ear.
*Rainbow fart: A compliment
given in an intentionally exaggerated and silly way
Jin Wangfei cried out, "Look at me. I forget everything
when I start talking. Come in, come in. Don't stand outside."
Su Wenqing heaved a sigh of relief in his heart... If it
doesn't end, I have really run out of praises...
Su Wenqing's physical and mental exhaustion caused by the
long journey, the fright and the excessive flattery disappeared the moment he
saw the place where she was staying.
Beishan Spring Banquet, to put it nicely, is a five-day
picnic. How good can the accommodation for a picnic be? She had already
prepared herself to squeeze into a tent with her ant brothers for five days,
but she never expected...
After all, poverty limited her imagination, and she
underestimated the extent of feudal corruption and extravagance...
The green tiles and white bricks, the flowing water under
the small bridge, the colorful flowers... This is a Suzhou garden built on the
mountain according to the size of the Forbidden City!
However, this little surprise turned into shock when Su
Wenqing followed the Su Mansion's large group for a full half hour before
arriving at the private courtyard arranged for them by Jin Wangfei.
While forcing her feet, which had become numb from walking,
to continue working, Su Wenqing thought with a sad heart, their courtyard was
said to have an excellent geographical location. Even a courtyard with an
excellent location would take half an hour to walk to, so why would those who
get a place with a bad geographical location attend the Spring Banquet? Just
walking out and back would take up most of the day.
After finally waiting for Jin Wangfei to leave, Su Wenqing
rubbed her stiff face and was about to go back to her room to lie down for a
while. Before she could turn around, she was grabbed by Zhao Yiniang, who
whispered in Su Wenqing's ear, "Everything is ready. You should act
according to the plan when the time comes."
After saying this, Zhao Yiniang walked away in lotus steps.
She took Su Jinsheng's hand affectionately and said, "Come, Jinsheng, Yiniang
will take you to see your room. If you are not satisfied with anything, please
tell me..."
Su Wenqing: ???
What the hell is ready? What's the plan? Can you please not
take me with you when you're going to die?
Su Wenqing pondered over the plot of the novel at the
Beishan Spring Banquet over and over again. The only thing that was related to
the three of them and was worthy of Zhao Yiniang's sneaky behavior was to ruin
Su Jinsheng's reputation.
Su Zhining had liked the second young master of the Wang
Mansion since she was a child. This was no secret in the Su family. The Wang
Mansion and the Su Mansion were well matched, and Zhao Yiniang also wants to
fulfill her daughter's wish.
Zhao Yiniang asked the old lady to test the waters and
learned that the Wang Mansion also intended to form a marriage with the Su
family. This should have been a happy thing for everyone, but the problem was
that the second son of the Wang Mansion was a di son, and his mother
looked down on Su Zhining's shu daughter status and wanted her son to
marry Su Jinsheng, the di daughter of the Su Mansion.
*di: born by the main wife
*shu: born by a concubine
Zhao Yiniang's repeated lobbying was rejected by the madam
of the Wang Mansion with a neither soft nor hard attitude. In the novel, Su
Wenqing seized this opportunity and instigated Zhao Yiniang to damage Su
Jinsheng's reputation during the Spring Banquet.
The third son of the Wen family is well-known to be romantic
and lustful in Anjing City. In the novel, Su Wenqing asked Zhao Yiniang to
bribe the servant around the third son of the Wen family to drug him, and Su
Wenqing was responsible for bringing Su Jinsheng over.
Su Jinsheng's reputation had been ruined because of this
incident before she was reborn. Later, the third prince, Xiao Yan, had had to
marry Su Jinsheng in order to gain the support of the Su family. Xiao Yan had always
accused her of being a slut because of the affair between Su Jinsheng and the
third son of the Wen family, so even though he had married Su Jinsheng, he had
never liked her.
After Su Jinsheng was reborn, she had taken advantage of the
situation and had had someone knocked out the third son of the Wen family, and
given the third prince, Xiao Yan, a sleeping pill. As a result, Su Wenqing and
Xiao Yan became the protagonists of the affair in public. In the end, Xiao Yan
had had to marry the Su Wenqing in the book under the pressure of the Su family
and the emperor.
Su Wenqing bit her finger at the rockery. In fact, this was
an opportunity. If she could stop Aunt Zhao's plan, then Su Jinsheng would not
be able to take advantage of her.
Su Wenqing suddenly felt that she was a genius. She solved
the problem from the source and resolved all the difficulties directly. If she
didn't have to marry Xiao Yan, she wouldn't have to find ways to escape from
the Su Mansion. Who would be willing to be a peasant girl working hard in the
fields when they can just be the second lady of the Su Mansion and live a life
of idleness and waiting for death?
But what was Zhao Yiniang's plan? Su Wenqing was so confused
that she didn't figure it out until she returned to her room. The novel was
from the heroine's perspective, and only told how Su Jinsheng used her
intelligence to escape danger. It didn't mention how the two sides planned.
However, considering her reading speed of 70,000 to 80,000
words per hour, it is possible that she did not pay attention.
Alas! If you are not careful when you are young, you will
regret it when you are old!
But it was always better to have a direction than to wander
around like a headless fly. Not including her, this matter involved a total of
five people, Su Jinsheng, Xiao Yan, Aunt Zhao, Young Master Wen, and the bribed
servant. Su Jinsheng and Xiao Yan were the big guys and could not be provoked,
so she had to start with the last three people.
Su Wenqing did just that and made two small plans for herself.
First, she would go to Yiniang Zhao to get some information, and then she would
find out who the third son of Wen family was. If she was lucky, she might even
find out who the bribed servant was...
Su Wenqing laughed twice. At that time, the question would
be whether to solve the problem with a sack or a wooden stick.
