After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart
Chapter 166: Can't hide it
In the Sima Mansion, Mrs. Luo was very excited when she learned that Queen Mother Guo had passed away. She placed a memorial ceremony for her brother and sister-in-law in a side room of the hall. After hearing the news, Mrs. Luo offered incense to her brother and sister-in-law, and muttered some words. : "Then Mrs. Guo is dead. My brother and sister-in-law can rest in peace. If you have spirits in heaven, please bless Yu'er and Fu'er for their safety, and also bless my daughter Chu Ge Suiyi."
Thinking of her daughter, Luo couldn't help but miss her again. She took out the letter from Chu Ge again from under her pillow, opened it in front of her eyes, looked at it from left to right, and then sighed heavily.
This letter has been in her hands for more than half a month, but Luo still hasn't seen the hidden meaning in it. She is indeed anxious as she holds this letter every day.
Luo was helpless. As soon as she put the letter back under her pillow, a little girl came in and said, "Madam, the general is back."
Nowadays, Sima Zhengren will come to her place for dinner when he returns from duty. However, after dinner, Luo Shi will not keep him overnight anymore. Her husband can protect her daughter, and Luo Shi does not want to have too much trouble with him to influence Sima. Zhengren was about to march north, but Luo was able to hold back his temper and chat with him.
"Go and order the kitchen to prepare food." Luo Shi ordered and walked out of the house.
Sima Zhengren was sitting on the imperial chair with a sword and a golden horse. When he saw his wife, he said, "Let them prepare food. I'm hungry."
Luo Shi replied: "I have already ordered you to go down."
Sima Zhengren nodded, then looked at his wife and asked, "The Queen Mother passed away last night, have you heard?"
Luo knew about the good news early in the morning, but when her husband mentioned it, she still pretended to be surprised and said: "The Queen Mother has always been in good health, how could she suddenly die?"
The alliance between the Sima family and the Guo family's mother and son, although the two sides are also wary of each other, but now that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, the Sima family has just assisted the government, and the power of both parties is not stable, it is a time when they need each other.
The death of Queen Mother Guo at this time was not a good thing for the Sima family.
Luo Shi naturally knew the secrets here. After saying this in front of her husband, he even deliberately pressed the corners of his eyes with the brocade handkerchief.
Sima Zhengren looked at his wife, frowned slightly and said, "If you don't know how to pretend, don't force yourself."
Luo has a gentle and pure temperament, and is the most gentle and virtuous person. Although she has been immersed in the complicated back house of Sima Mansion for many years, she is not good at hiding her emotions due to her nature.
Seeing that her husband had found out, Luo's face suddenly turned red, and she hurriedly tried to make up for herself: "Although I have enmity with the Guo family, I am the wife of the Sima family, so I naturally do everything for the sake of my husband's family."
Luo Shi has just turned thirty, which is when a woman is most charming. In addition, she is naturally beautiful and has read poetry and books. Her scholarly fragrance and charm are far beyond the comparison of the rouge and powder in the back house.
Seeing his wife's charming and gentle appearance, Sima Zhengren felt that his heart could not help but soften. Although he still had a straight face, the eyes he looked at his wife were overflowing with tenderness.
He opened his mouth and said to his wife: "You are such a stupid woman."
Such words, if spoken by a man with a gentle temperament, would sound like pampering and the pleasure of the boudoir. But when a cold and dignified man like Sima Zhengren said these words, it would sound like cold reproach.
Luo quickly adjusted her mood, holding back all her strength to prevent her inner joy from Guo's death from overflowing. She only meekly replied to her husband: "I have always been stupid, but I just thanked the general." Just be tolerant.”
Her husband will go on an expedition in a few days. During these few days, Luo Shi will not care about making excuses with him.
What a tough man like Sima Zhengren likes most is a gentle woman. After listening to his wife's words, his expression rarely softened, and he replied: "You are my wife, and it is normal for me to treat you." When has he ever treated her before? ? Ever since they got married, she has always been the one to compromise.
Luo Shi felt contempt in his heart, and his face showed indifference unconsciously, but he still said perfunctorily: "The general is magnanimous, which is my blessing."
Fortunately, the maids filed in and put out dishes, attracting the attention of the hungry Sima Zhengren, so Luo's different thoughts were not noticed by her husband.
The couple sat across from each other in front of the dinner table. Sima Zhengren always liked roast goose, so Luo would prepare this dish every day.
Sima Zhengren picked up the jade chopsticks and was the first to run towards the goose meat as usual. He took a bite and frowned slightly.
Luo Shi asked: "What? Doesn't it suit the general's taste?"
Sima Zhengren smacked his lips and replied: "This roast goose seems to taste different from what Madam usually cooks."
Today, Luo Shi was in a state of excitement when she learned the news that Queen Mother Guo had passed away. How could she find the time to cook for her husband, so she asked Aunt Xu to do the work for her.
In fact, Luo's skill in making roast goose was also learned from Nanny Xu. Unexpectedly, her husband noticed something strange about this skill, which was inherited from the same origin.
Luo Shi felt guilty for a while, but still said firmly: "Usually, the roast geese I cook for the general are the meat of male geese that have been raised for more than two years. Today, the male goose in the kitchen broke, and I used a young female goose, so , the taste is just a little different.”
After hearing his wife's reason, Sima Zhengren stretched out his jade chopsticks and took a bite. After tasting it, he looked at his wife seriously, but did not say anything. He just said lightly: "That's it."
Luo Shi easily got rid of the problem and began to eat the rice carefully. Sima Zhengren looked at her again and said: "These days, I have been troublesome for you, madam, to cook for me personally. Thank you for your hard work. Go to Finally, just leave such things to the cook."
Luo Shi hurriedly replied: "The general is about to go on an expedition and can't stay at home for a few days. I don't mind the hard work."
Sima Zhengren asked: "It will take a long time for me to leave. Is Madam looking forward to my departure?"
Seeing that her husband had found out again, Love put down the jade chopsticks in her hand and hurriedly explained: "How could it be? As the wife of a general, how could I expect my husband to leave home?"
Sima Zhengren gave his wife a serious look and replied, "Let's eat."
Luo Shi was afraid that her husband would doubt her, so she looked at her husband with a little fear, and then continued to use it uneasily.
Sima Zhengren ate the meal and said to his wife smoothly: "I am very hungry today. The Queen Mother passed away suddenly, which caused such a mess. I was so busy that I didn't even bother to eat at noon."
As soon as Luo Shi heard her husband talking about Guo Shi, she couldn't help but become happy again, so much so that she almost choked while drinking hot soup.
The maid hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, and Luo Shi hurriedly covered her mouth. She coughed twice, fearing that her husband would see her thoughts, so she blushed and made amends for herself: "This soup is a bit scalding."
Sima Zhengren couldn't help it anymore. He glanced at his wife and couldn't help laughing, and said: "It's normal for you to be happy when Guo was killed. If you can't hide it, just laugh out loud. Why bother so hard?" Hold on."
