Chapter 181 The Skinny Horse's Second Daughter 53
Zhou Jingyi thought that after getting married, she would be able to live a comfortable life away from Azhi.
But unexpectedly, I fainted from a cold, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Ah Zhi sitting beside the bed.
He was still wearing plain clothes and holding a bowl of black medicine in his hand. A pungent smell of medicine spread to his nose.
Since marrying into Prince Cheng's Mansion, Zhou Jingyi's life has not been easy. Princess Cheng from above is not in a good mood, and Fang Changmian from below is particularly indifferent.
Ever since she lost her child due to the forced medication, Zhou Jingyi's health has been poor.
I have to take herbal medicine every day, but even though I drink it every day, my body still doesn't get better.
Princess Cheng didn't like Zhou Jingyi in the first place, and she asked Zhou Jingyi to behave properly when she paid her respects to her every day.
Fang Changmian treated her like more than a husband and wife, and always looked at her coldly and spoke badly to her.
The concubines in the courtyard were not easy to deal with either, always relying on their favor to provoke Zhou Jingyi.
Not long ago, Princess Cheng proposed a concubine, which was a slap in her own face.
This made her fall ill in the autumn, and the doctor said it was caused by the autumn wind.
Thinking of the injustice he had suffered in Prince Cheng's Mansion, he became ill, with repeated fever and chills, and felt drowsy like a dried flower.
During this period, no one came to visit me, and the person who came was actually Azhi, whom I didn't want to see.
Zhou Jingyi stared at Azhi warily. Thinking of the days in the general's mansion, fear and terror surged in her heart again.
"How will you be here?"
If she didn't know that she was already married, Zhou Jingyi would have thought that she had returned to the general's mansion.
Azhi stopped and looked at Zhou Jingyi, with a caring smile on her delicate little face.
"What are you talking about, sister? Don't you want to see me? When I heard that you were sick, I was really worried and begged mother to let me visit you."
"I heard that you caught a cold, so I made some medicine for you. Please don't let me down."
Seeing Azhi scooping the medicine towards her with a spoon, Zhou Jingyi almost couldn't help but scream.
"Where's the lily of the valley? Lily of the valley."
Seeing Zhou Jingyi avoiding him, Azhi did not feel disappointed as he held the medicine.
"Sister, don't shout. This Linglan is the one who serves you, but she failed to protect you."
"It was her fault that you caught a cold and fell ill. I asked my brother-in-law to take her downstairs to be punished."
"Are you crazy? Linglan is someone close to me. What right do you have to deal with my maid? Zhou Anning, who gave you the courage?"
I'm already married, why can't I get rid of the other person?
This made her feel despair, as if even if she ran to the ends of the earth, the other party would still catch up and torture her.
Ah Zhi continued to stir the bowl of medicine slowly and leisurely.
"This is not the lily of the valley that I disposed of, but the sister that my brother-in-law loves."
"I couldn't bear to see my sister get sick because of Linglan's laziness, so I helped her vent her anger."
"I really envy my sister for being so lucky to marry such a good husband."
"Married well?"
Thinking back to his own wedding, the eunuchs from the palace came to read the imperial edict.
Zhou Jingyi couldn't suppress the jealousy in her heart.
"Why isn't this marriage for you?"
"Sister, you are joking. If your reputation hadn't been damaged, there would have been a lot of talk about you in the capital."
"Sister, you used your innocence to win your brother-in-law. Didn't he cancel the engagement?"
"How come my sister got married as she wished? She seems unhappy."
There have always been doubts about what happened back then.
Why was he lying together with Fang Changmian for no reason?
You know, I was unwilling to marry Fang Changmian, so how could it be possible that Ah Zhi said that I had to blame Prince Cheng's Mansion because my reputation was damaged?
Everything was just Ahzhi's revenge on me.
But no one believes anything I say.
Even if she married Fang Changmian.
On their wedding night, Zhou Jingyi talked about this matter with Fang Changmian.
His purpose was to get Fang Changmian to help him fight back.
When Fang Changmian heard Zhou Jingyi say that Zhou An Ning was behind all this, he didn't expect him to get so angry and keep accusing himself of being petty.
He is so dark inside that he has to frame others and tells himself not to be jealous of his own sister.
Zhou Jingyi fainted from exhaustion, and the wedding night became a joke. Fang Changmian actually went to the concubine's room.
Even if your husband is not the one you like or the one you want.
But when she saw him defending Azhi, Zhou Jingyi still felt resentful.
But Zhou Jingyi couldn't do anything to Fang Changmian.
Now that they have become husband and wife, it is natural that they will prosper together and suffer together.
"Bitch!"
Zhou Jingyi's chest heaved and she breathed with difficulty. She stared at Azhi and wished she could pounce on her and bite her to death.
"You have caused me to this point, and you will definitely die a miserable death in the future!"
Ah Zhi, who had originally had a cold expression on his face, now looked a little helpless.
She stood up with the medicine bowl in her hand, her voice weak and trembling.
"Sister, what do you mean? You and I are sisters. I came to visit you with good intentions..."
Ahzhi burst into tears before she finished speaking.
"Zhou Jingyi!"
Fang Changmian walked out from behind the screen and came forward, staring at Zhou Jingyi coldly with a bit of disgust.
"An Ning is your biological sister. She always thinks of you. Why do you have the heart to say such bad things to her?"
"She made the medicine for you and accidentally burned her wrist. How could you be so heartless?"
He should have been her husband, but he was standing in front of Azhi.
Fang Changmian looked at Azhi with some tenderness, and it was obvious at a glance that he felt something unusual towards Azhi.
Zhou Jingyi forced herself to stand up and sneered, "Fang Changmian, you are so despicable that you actually like Zhou An Ning. Do you know her previous identity?"
Azhi, who was standing aside, had a look of panic on his face, but his eyes were still calm and composed.
Zhou Jingyi is now a "madman", who would believe the barking of a madman?
Fang Changmian subconsciously looked at Azhi.
I saw Ahzhi's delicate body trembling slightly, and her eyes were covered by mist.
Such a pitiful appearance makes people feel pity for her.
Even though he knew that she and Fang Qingyu were arranged to be married, Fang Changmian still protected Azhi and looked at Zhou Jingyi with a face full of blame.
"You are really sick and confused..."
"I'm not sick! Zhou An Ning was not in her hometown when she was a child. She was abducted and sold to Changsi Pavilion. Do you know what Changsi Pavilion is?"
Maybe he felt that he wanted to take revenge on Azhi.
Zhou Jingyi's face was filled with pride and madness.
She pointed at Ah Zhi and said sharply, "Changsi Pavilion is where the skinny horse from Yangzhou stays. It's full of filthy women, all trained to be cheap bitches. Zhou An Ning is...ah!"
"Snapped."
Fang Changmian rushed over and slapped Zhou Jingyi not only once but twice in a row, causing her to fall onto the bed.
Zhou Jingyi was seen being slapped and looked a little dazed.
Even if the two of them had no feelings for each other after getting married, it was not Fang Changmian's turn to beat her whenever he wanted.
"Are you crazy? I'm your wife!"
Zhou Jingyi covered her face with her hands and tears welled up in her eyes, but unfortunately Fang Changmian did not feel the slightest bit of sympathy.
"Why are you crying? You are the eldest daughter of a general's mansion, and you are so brazen as to accuse your own sister."
"You should know that you are An Ning's biological sister. There are some things you cannot say. Do you want to kill her?"
Fang Changmian had of course heard of what Changsi Pavilion was.
But he didn't believe her.
I was clearly telling the truth, so why did he think it was a false accusation?
Ah Zhi, who was holding the medicine, reminded, "Prince, it should be because my sister didn't take the medicine. Ever since she lost her child, she has been worrying too much."
Looking at the medicine brought by Azhi, Fang Changmian took it in his own hand, walked forward and pulled Zhou Jingyi to pour it into her mouth.
“Ah, gu…”
The medicine tastes terrible. Not to mention drinking it all, I feel sick after just one sip.
Zhou Jingyi remembers the taste of this medicine.
It was Ah Zhi who fed me this medicine before I got married.
The familiar smell made Zhou Jingyi wave her hands, trying to overturn the bowl of medicine in Fang Changmian's hand.
Unfortunately, her resistance was ineffective and only led to Fang Changmian's even more rude treatment.
Seeing that the medicine in the bowl was almost gone, Fang Changmian let go of Zhou Jingyi.
"Cough...cough..."
She scratched her throat and tried to spit out the medicine.
But Fang Changmian said coldly, "An Ning was kind enough to get good medicine for you, how can you be so cold-hearted and not know how to be grateful?"
grateful?
How could she be kind to me?
Zhou Jingyi's white pajamas were stained with dark brown medicine, her hair was disheveled and her face was pale. She was lying on the edge of the bed with tears in her eyes.
Not far away, Ah Zhi was standing gracefully in a mint green gown and a long pleated skirt with gold-plated auspicious clouds, giving off an indescribable feeling of coolness and nobility.
She walked forward and squatted with a gentle look, her back to Fang Changmian, revealing sarcasm in her eyes.
"Sister, you must take the medicine carefully, so you can get better faster."
Faced with Azhi's false concern, Zhou Jingyi raised her hand and wanted to scratch her, but Fang Changmian stepped forward and pushed her away.
"Zhou Jingyi, don't go crazy!"
The strong push made Zhou Jingyi fall on the bed like a rag doll, unable to get up.
I could only watch Fang Changmian care about Azhi.
"Are you okay? Ever since your sister became ill, not only has her body become ill, but her mind has also become ill. She has been talking nonsense and is out of character."
Azhi avoided Fang Changmian's deliberate approach, stood up and took two steps back to keep a distance.
"Sister is not feeling well. I understand very well. If you have nothing to do, you must spend more time talking to sister."
"I see."
Looking at Fang Changmian's attentive expression.
Zhou Jingyi felt sad.
At this time, Ah Zhi turned around and said softly, "Sister, take good care of yourself. I will come to see you tomorrow."
"The medicine I found for you is all good. It will definitely work for you, sister."
I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but when Zhou Jingyi heard Azhi mention the medicine, she started to feel uncomfortable all over.
She always felt that Azhi would not be so kind.
How could I possibly give myself any good medicine?
But the doctor said there was nothing wrong with her body, and Zhou Jingyi really couldn't figure out what the problem was.
I saw Azhi turning around and about to leave.
Zhou Jingyi forced herself to stand up and shouted at Ah Zhi's back, "What medicine did you give me? You definitely didn't give me good medicine. Do you want to kill me?"
This sound took away all her strength.
He could only gasp and fall down, curling up.
Her voice sounded like a last gasp.
"Zhou Anning, tell me, what medicine did you give me?"
People are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of the approach of death.
