Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Pingyang said to Jingshu, "Since she insists on coming to see her despite the fact that she just gave birth, the second sister-in-law should ask them to let her in."

Jiao Xing was led into the main room by the maid. She had just given birth and it was difficult to give birth. Her face was as pale as paper and her body was so weak that it was unbearable to see.

Jiao Xing knelt on the ground after meeting the ladies, and said sincerely to Ping Yang: "I would like to thank you madam for saving my life and the baby's life."

If Pingyang hadn't sent the dowry midwife to the hospital yesterday, Jiao Xing and her daughter would not be so well.

Hearing this, Pingyang glanced at Jiao Xing, and she replied calmly, "You are pregnant with Third Master's flesh and blood. As the eldest lady, I should take care of you."

Although Pingyang's words were spoken in a casual tone and her tone was plain, her whole body exuded a strong aura that she had never seen before.

Frustration makes people grow. This woman, who had been pampered and pampered by hundreds of people, experienced the cruel thing yesterday and understood the human heart, and she seemed to have grown up overnight.

She is no longer the purely emotional little girl, she has become steady, rational, and transparent, and no longer takes the relationship between men and women too seriously.

After hearing Pingyang's words, Jiao Xing lowered her head and replied: "I have a low status. Thanks to my wife, I took her back to the house. Now I am lucky enough to give birth to a daughter for the third master. I have no regrets in this life. I want to come back again." The former Zhuangzi goes up and from now on he will never set foot in the palace again, nor will he see the third master again. Madam, please do it."

As soon as Jiao Xing's words came out, it was completely beyond the expectations of Jing Shu, Xu Wanning and Ping Yang. Since a concubine has received such love and respect from the master, the eldest lady has not made things difficult for her, and she has already given birth to a child. It's time to stay at home with peace of mind and enjoy everything you have.

Pingyang has a kind heart after all. When she saw that Jiao Xing still had such a heart, it made her respect this humble woman.

Pingyang fell in love with Li Xiang from the first time he saw him. Pingyang had been married to Li Xiang for so many years. Although Li Xiang was gentle and considerate to him and the couple got along harmoniously, Pingyang always felt uneasy in his heart. She felt that there was some barrier between her and Li Xiang, and this barrier often made her feel uneasy. After knowing Li Xiang's thoughts yesterday, although Pingyang was heartbroken and sad, he felt at ease in his heart and even felt much more relaxed.

Although Pingyang was resentful towards Li Xiang, he did not resent Jiao Xing.

Although Pingyang is Li Xiang's official wife, Jiao Xing knew and fell in love with Li Xiang earlier than she did. Since she lost to Jiao Xing due to the timing of her appearance and could not get Li Xiang's true love, Ping Yang still guarded her heart and did not let hatred go to her head.

 Pingyang has a noble background, several lovely children, a natal family who loves her, and her in-laws' sisters-in-law are also kind to her.

 She still has a lot, and there is no point in ruining her life for a despicable woman.

Pingyang was silent for a while and then said: "Since you have given birth to a child, just raise the child well in the house."

Jiao Xing raised her head and looked at Pingyang, and replied sincerely: "Madam, you are kind to others, but it is because of the rift between me and the third master. This is my biggest sin. I have decided to leave the house, please forgive me." Master, make peace with Third Master as before, and live a happy life together."

Jiao Xing said this with utmost sincerity, without any pretense.

As she said that, she took out a piece of paper from her sleeve pocket and continued: "I promise that I will never set foot in the palace again, nor will I see the third master again. This is a letter of guarantee written by me, please." The prince’s wife and the eldest lady will bear witness to me.” The maid presented the piece of paper to Jingshu. Jingshu opened it and looked at it. She only saw the hairpin in small regular script, which made Jingshu think highly of this beautiful girl. At one glance, Xu Wanning, who was originally full of disdain, couldn't help but sigh, and her face no longer looked as cold as before.

Jingshu read the guarantee letter and handed the paper to Pingyang. Pingyang glanced at it twice, and her expression changed involuntarily. She was about to speak, but unexpectedly Li Xiang pushed the door open and barged in.

Li Xiang obviously knew Jiao Xing's plan. He helped Jiao Xing up and said in a panic: "What are you doing? Now that you and I even have children, why would you abandon her so cruelly?" Let’s leave.”

Jiao Xing took away Li Xiang's hand and bowed deeply to Ping Yang: "Madam, I will ask you to take care of my child from now on."

Li Xiang didn't let go. He held Jiao Xing tightly and said to Pingyang: "Pingyang, I know I'm sorry for you, and I have no shame to ask for your forgiveness, but I really didn't mean to hurt you. I have been with you since I was a child. Staying with Jiao Xing, I already regard her as a relative, I really can't live without her, please can you allow her to stay."

After hearing what Li Xiang said, Pingyang breathed a long sigh of relief, tried hard to control her emotions, turned her head and replied: "The third master made a mistake, it's not that I don't want your sweetheart to stay in the house, it's her I insist on leaving. If you can keep her, I have no objection. If you have the ability to right her, I, Pingyang, will be willing to give up my position."

As soon as Pingyang said these words, Xu Wanning hurriedly pulled her and said: "What are you talking about? Okay, but don't be angry with others like this, it's wrong."

After Pingyang listened to Xu Wanning's advice, she turned her head and said nothing.

Jingshu handed Li Xiang the letter of guarantee that Jiao Xing had just submitted, and said to him: "It is indeed Aunt Xing who proposed to leave. This is what she wrote with her own hands. If you don't believe me, you can see it with your own eyes."

Li Xiang did not read the guarantee letter. He hurriedly said to Pingyang: "Of course I can trust Pingyang, but Jiaoxing can't leave."

Jingshu replied on behalf of Pingyang: "It is Aunt Xing's decision to leave the house. Neither Pingyang nor we forced her. Third brother, please ask Aunt Xing herself."

Hearing this, Jiao Xing said to Li Xiang: "No one is forcing me, it's just that I have made up my mind. Third Master, don't let me stay anymore."

After saying that, she turned and left. Li Xiang anxiously chased her to the door and called her anxiously. Jiao Xing stood in the corridor, turned to look at Li Xiang, and said to him: "Stop chasing her!" It is a duty to leave without hesitation.

Jiao Xing returned to the cross-yard. The little girl had already packed up and bowed according to her order. Jiao Xing walked to her newborn daughter, kissed her tender and tender face with tears in her eyes, then turned to Xiaomei and said: "Let's leave now."

Xiaomei couldn't help but cry and persuaded: "Auntie, since Madam saved you and my sister, it means that she does not blame you. With Madam's character, she will not embarrass you in the future. Why do you need to take this step? Sister still How can you bear it when you are so young? Besides, the third master can’t live without you."

Jiao Xing tested the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief and replied calmly: "My identity and the Third Master's are completely different, and there shouldn't be any true love between us. But he really fell in love with me. I also really fell in love with him. If our love could be hidden from the eyes of the world, there might still be a chance. Now that everyone knows the secret, even if my wife can tolerate me, so can the world. You can't tolerate me, my presence will only make it difficult for the third master, and it will also make it difficult for this child to do anything in the future."

As she said that, she reluctantly glanced at the baby who was sleeping soundly in the swaddling clothes, and said with determination: "Let's go, let's go now!"

Jiao Xing's carriage drove out of the Zhen Guogong Mansion, and Li Xiang followed on horseback. He said a lot of nice things and even cried and begged Jiao Xing to stay. Although Jiao Xing was sitting in the car with tears streaming down her face, she remained calm. Without opening the car door to take a look at Li Xiang, it wasn't until the car arrived at the city gate that Jiao Xing said to Li Xiang through the car window: "Let me go and stop chasing me!"
