Chapter 22: Li Qingmu, I’ll Kill You!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Longyue left Madam Li Zhou’s room, she went to rest. When she woke up in the morning, the ground was wet. A thin layer of moss had grown out of the cracks in the stones.
There was a slight chill in the fresh air. Longyue realized that summer was here.
“The examination is drawing near.”
Longyue muttered.
She was living in an era known as the Great Zhou Dynasty. The emperor was known as Emperor Zhou. The Great Zhou imperial examination was held in August of the lunar calendar, around the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
So Li Qingmu could not spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at home. Longyue thought about how they would be spending the first festival after their marriage apart and felt bad.
She looked at the empty bed beside her. She guessed that the fellow had already gone to the county city to sell calligraphy and paintings. She got out of bed and washed up.
After breakfast, Qiao’er came over, followed by Li Xiangxiang and Li Qingxue.
Longyue had arranged for the two of them to thread needles. Li Xiangxiang did not say anything, but Li Qingxue was a little resentful and insisted on learning embroidery.
“If you can’t tolerate it, you can choose not to learn!”
Longyue immediately shut Li Qingxue up.
She looked at Longyue with some resentment, but because she was the wicked woman of the Li family and she had a favor to ask of her, she didn’t dare to cause trouble.
The day passed peacefully.
In the evening, Li Qingmu returned from the city.
“Wife, I met my classmates in the county city today. They said that Teacher is planning revision classes for us in the next few days. After that, they will probably hurry us to the provincial city… Hmm, wife?”
Li Qingmu started talking as soon as he entered the house. Then he saw his little wife sitting in a daze by the window. He quickly shouted to her.
Longyue was thinking that it would be difficult to earn much money just relying on embroidery, so she wanted to find something else to do. As a result, her mind wandered. Only when she heard his shout did she return to her senses. “Yes, alright!”
Immediately Li Qingmu looked at her a little resentfully. “Wife, the school is too far from home. I will only come home once every few days. Will you miss me?”
Longyue glanced at him coldly. She did not understand when he had become so arrogant. Why did he have to talk so much nonsense when he was just attending school?
The Li family lived in the southernmost, rural part of the county city. The school was in the northernmost part. The commute spanned the entire county city and it would take more than four hours back and forth. Therefore, while attending school, Li Qingmu would come home every five or six days.
That was why he asked her if she would miss him.
Longyue said angrily, “No!”
Li Qingmu looked hurt. “My wife doesn’t have her husband in her heart!”
Longyue wanted to give him a good beating when she saw his aggrieved manner. She cried out in anger, “You torture me every day. I will only miss you if my brain is smoked!”c
Immediately he said faintly, “Only at night, not during the day.”
Longyue almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What a bastard!
At this moment, he suddenly drew closer to her and pulled her into his arms. He leaned in and whispered in her ear. “Alright, I understand. These few days, I’ll recuperate at home and nourish my body more. If the horse wants to run fast, it needs to eat some grass, eh?”
He then touched the tip of her nose lightly.
Horse? Longyue glared at him and kicked him rudely. However, he had anticipated this and grabbed her hand easily.
“Wife, we’ll be separated for a few days. Well… Tonight… Can you let me…”
“Get lost!!!”
“Caw! Caw!”
A flock of crows got so startled that they flew into the air.
The next day, Longyue and Li Qingmu went to the county city together. He went to school while Longyue went to the fabric shop. As they parted ways, he gave Longyue a peck on the forehead.
Longyue looked at him in disdain but she didn’t forget to remind him, “Don’t get tricked by Qian Duoduo later.”
Qian Duoduo was Qian Yi. A few days ago, he had wanted to molest Longyue by the lotus pond, so it would be fine if she didn’t mention him. Once she did, a hint of coldness flashed across Li Qingmu’s eyes.
He said softly, “Wife, are you worried about your husband?”
“No, I really hope that he will beat you up till you turn into a pig’s head!”
Li Qingmu was stupefied.
Ignoring his slightly darkened expression, Longyue strode away.
“Brother Li
A voice came from behind. Li Qingmu turned around and saw Xiang Yin. He asked, “Has Brother Xiang recovered?”
Xiang Yin’s face instantly turned pale. Then he smiled bitterly. “I’m alright, ‘m much better now.
This person is a devil, Xiang Yin thought. A devil that sucks human blood, eats human flesh, and is hated by the world! Ever since that time, Xiang Yin had been afraid of Li Qingmu from the bottom of his heart. Therefore, every time he saw Li Qingmu argue with someone, he was afraid that he would go
crazy and do something immoral.
That day, Miss Lu had asked him out and so he accompanied her. Unexpectedly, they ran into this devil at a fabric shop. However, that idiot, Lu Qianqian, got into a fight with him. At that time, he saw a flash of anger in Li Qingmu’s eyes and was scared out of his wits. Then he went home
As Xiang Yin thought about this, he broke out in a cold sweat.
At this moment, Li Qingmu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. “Brother Xiang, some things are over. Don’t take them to heart. Most of the time, we don’t do something deliberately but because we’re forced by circumstances, right?”
“Well…”
Xiang Yin grunted in response, but he was drenched in cold sweat.
Li Qingmu looked at him and knew that he was scared out of his wits. If he wanted to comfort Xiang Yin now, he would probably think that he was threatening him. He might as well not say anything.
Xiang Yin followed him to the school in a daze and noticed that there were already many people there. However, the moment he entered, he heard a shout. “Li Qingmu, you bastard, you’re finally here. I’ll destroy you!”
Inan instant, a brush dipped in ink came flying at him. Li Qingmu swiftly dodged it. However, Xiang Yin, who was behind him, was slower and was hit in the face by the brush. Instantly, his face turned ugly.
He looked over at the man with a dumbfounded expression and saw that he was one of the top pricks in the school, Qian Duoduo.
“Qian Duoduo…. Qian Yi, what are you doing?”
After being slapped in the face by the inked brush, Xiang Yin was not as afraid as before. He even had the illusion that Li Qingmu would not harm him again after he had taken a hit for him.
He was angry that Qian Yi was playing with fire. Not only would he get himself into trouble, he would also get them into trouble.
“Cut out the crap! What else can I do? I want to kill Li Qingmu, that bastard. That slut from his family almost killed me!”
Qian Yi was so angry that he was jumping up and down as he was swearing.
Ahint of darkness flashed across Li Qingmu’s eyes as he said coldly, “Qian Yi, what did my wife do to you?”
He was a little angry. [ haven’t even settled scores with you for harassing my little wife, and you’re coming at me?he thought.
Li Qingmu had asked Longyue about it. Qian Yi had inexplicably fallen into the water. He knew that it must have been his little wife’s doing, but he definitely would not admit to it!
Seeing Li Qingmu’s unwillingness to admit it, Qian Yi was even angrier. He roared, “Li Qingmu, that b*tch of yours pushed me into the water and almost drowned me! We’re not done with this!”
