Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 111 Li Ling wants to hire a dancer?

After the banquet, when Li Ling returned to the residence where he was staying, he asked his wife, "What's wrong with you?"

Jingshu glanced at Li Ling solemnly and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

Li Ling replied: "I don't seem very happy to see you."

Jingshu asked again: "When did you become unhappy when you saw me?"

Li Ling looked at his wife and replied, "I saw that you seemed to have something wrong after eating half of the banquet. What's wrong?"

Jingshu rolled her eyes at Li Ling and snorted coldly: "It's hard for you to notice me." After saying that, she came to the mirror and began to take off her hairpins and jewelry.

Li Ling stood there thinking for a while, followed her, stood behind his wife and asked, "What's going on?"

Jingshu replied with a dull face: "It's okay."

With that said, she took off the bracelet from Hao's wrist and threw it on the dressing table with a "click".

This doesn’t seem like “nothing is wrong” either.

Li Ling sat down on Wuzi beside her, glanced at his wife's cold little face, and asked, "But you blame me for not taking care of you at today's banquet?"

Seeing that his wife was silent, he explained: "Zhang Chao and I haven't seen each other for many years. It's rare to get together today, so we have to catch up on old times. Besides, there are other generals in Pucheng here, so I can't be too attentive to you."

After he finished speaking, seeing that his wife still had a straight face, Li Ling thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Isn't it for this?"

Jingshu rolled her eyes at her and said impatiently: "Didn't I tell you? I'm fine."

 “When I say nothing happens, I mean something happens.” This is what my wife once said.

 History has taught us painful lessons.

 How dare Li Ling forget.

 He pulled his wife, looked at her and asked, "Did you have a bad conversation with those women today? Did any of them bully you without good reason?"

Jingshu gave Li Ling another free look.

Li Ling scratched his head and thought hard. He grabbed his wife and guessed: "Is it because the dishes at the Zhangfu banquet are not to your taste?"

Jingshu glanced at her husband solemnly, suppressing the urge to hit him. She shook off Li Ling's hand, turned around and walked away.

Li Ling hurriedly followed, held his wife's hand, and asked persistently: "Why are you angry? Can you tell me clearly?"

Jingshu threw Li Ling away and said with a dull face: "Didn't I say it? Nothing happens!"

"I'm sleepy and want to sleep." After saying that, she went to bed.

Li Ling didn't bother to wash up and went to bed immediately. He held her in his arms and continued to ask: "What's the matter? If there's something I didn't do well, I'll fix it, or you want to fight me." You can scold me if you want, but don’t get angry with me like this, okay?”

Jingshu was sullen in his arms, still saying: "Nothing happened."

Li Ling kissed her forehead and begged: "Good madam, you know I'm stupid, so just tell me, otherwise I won't be able to sleep peacefully this night."

 He lowered his eyes and looked at his wife: "What are you unhappy about?"

Jingshu broke away from his arms, sat up, and straightened her pajamas.

 This is what it means to say it.

Li Ling also quickly stood up and sat upright, looking at his wife with a dull face and listening attentively.

 “Did the dance at today’s banquet go well?” This is what the little wife said.

 Li Ling replied seriously: "It looks good."

The young wife rolled her eyes at him, snorted slightly, and then asked: "Is he good-looking?"

Li Ling thought for a moment and realized that what his wife was referring to was the dancer. He replied nonchalantly: "It's okay."

Seeing that his wife's face seemed to be getting colder, Li Ling scratched his head and asked doubtfully: "Is there anything wrong with the dancer?"

Just hearing the little wife snort coldly: "What problem can there be with such a beautiful girl?" After saying this, she turned around and lay back, leaving only Li Ling's cold back.

Li Ling sat and pondered for a long time, then asked his wife: "What happened to the dancing girl? Did she offend you?"

 “No!” The little wife said this impatiently and covered her head in the quilt.

Li Ling sighed, stretched out his hand to pull his wife out of the quilt, and pulled her into his arms: "What's going on? Please don't play riddles with me like this again, okay?"

Seeing that his wife was still silent, he said anxiously: "If you don't say anything, I will ask Zhang Chao to find the girl, and I will interrogate her myself."

With that said, Li Ling turned around and went to the ground.

Jingshu quickly grabbed him: "Why are you looking for that girl in the middle of the night?"

"Of course I want to ask her how she offended you?" Li Ling looked at his wife and said helplessly: "I asked you, but you refused to tell me."

I have never seen such a stupid person.

Jingshu pulled Li Ling over, straightened her clothes again, and asked directly this time: "If Zhang Chao gives that girl to you, do you want it?"

Li Ling replied without thinking: "What do I want her to do?"

"It would be inconvenient to have an extra female family member with you along the way. Besides, you have Ziyun by your side to serve you, so there is no shortage of maids."

Jingshu really doesn’t know whether this person is really open and honest, or whether he is trying to hide his face.

Such a beauty, not to mention a vigorous man, even women can't help but take a second look when they see her.

Can Li Ling really achieve calmness of mind?

She looked at her husband and asked directly: "Would you like me to be your concubine?"

After hearing what his wife said, Li Ling was stunned for a long time, but he burst out laughing: "Is this what you had in mind?"

Jingshu gave Li Ling a fierce look: "Have I wronged you?"

"At the banquet, I saw that your eyes were almost touching the dancing girl."

Although these words were full of anger and a bit exaggerated, Li Ling did take the dancer's performance at the banquet seriously.

 She couldn't help but get angry when she thought of him looking at the dancer.

Li Ling suppressed his smile and hurriedly explained: "I've never seen a woman dance a sword before, so I thought it was strange, so I took a second look at it. I have no other thoughts. Don't accuse a good person unjustly."

As he said that, he pulled his wife over with a smile and coaxed her: "If you don't like what I see, just tell me directly in my ear during the banquet. I just won't see it. Why bother to be sullen and angry?"

Jingshu snorted coldly: "I can't care who the prince wants to see."

She rolled her eyes at Li Ling and said sourly: "Even if you really want to have sex, I can't stop you."

Li Ling glanced at his wife, his eyebrows raised slightly: "Are you jealous?"

Jingshu snorted coldly, turned her head and said angrily: "I said I don't want to be jealous of you. If you really have that intention, I won't stop you."

Li Ling lay back on the pillow, raised his hand and patted his wife's back, and asked, "If I have this intention, are you really not going to stop me?"

Seeing that his wife still refused to pay attention to him, Li Ling said leisurely: "If you didn't mention it, I really didn't think about it."

 He sighed slightly: "Since Madam is so virtuous, why not allow me to accept her beauty?"

Li Ling stared at his young wife's profile and said leisurely: "I will ask Zhang Chao for that girl tomorrow."
